Let you simulate life, but you change fate every time?!

Chapter 766: Chapter 415: 7 Lives - Immortal Blessing, Heaven-defying Fate Change!_2

The leading flagship, in particular, was over ten thousand meters long, equipped with a planet-destroying main cannon. When fully charged, it could obliterate a planet!

Several fully armed escort ships surrounded the flagship, providing protection for it.

Compared to these massive interstellar battleships, the military base in Guanghua City was as insignificant as an ant.

Lu Yuan gazed into the distance.

Inside the vast base, hundreds of thousands of conscripted professionals and Star Realm Army reserves had already gathered.

A series of anti-gravity space elevators, each tens of thousands of meters high, transported massive amounts of supplies and personnel onto the warships.

With the Divine Wood Star campaign reaching a fever pitch, the Terran Empire could no longer care about the consequences.

They ordered all nearby planets to immediately dispatch their entire fleets to the front line for support.

This fleet and these professionals were the last remaining assets of Hulao Star.

If they were annihilated, Hulao Star would suffer a huge loss of primordial energy, taking at least several hundred years to recover.

After changing his appearance, Lu Yuan mingled within the ranks, passed through layers of verification, and finally used an anti-gravity elevator to board one of the medium-sized warships.

"Brave and fearless warriors, welcome aboard the Tiger Shark escort ship."

"The warship is about to depart, expected to arrive at the Divine Wood Star battlefield in five days."

"We wish you all a smooth journey and abundant military fortune; the Star Alliance will remember each of your contributions and sacrifices!"

A clear and gentle artificial brain voice echoed inside the warship, resonating in everyone’s ears.

Yet upon hearing this, others spat on the ground in disdain.

"Damn politicians in the Governance Hall, they rush to benefits, but once a war starts, they use us as cannon fodder."

"When I get back, the first thing I’m gonna do is wipe out those insects!"

A middle-aged man with a scruffy beard couldn’t help but curse quietly.

The rest of the group was also filled with resentment, clearly coerced and pressured into coming here.

Lu Yuan ignored them, weaving through the crowd to find the rest cabin assigned to him by the warship’s computer.

Space on the warship was limited, especially in the cramped quarters for ordinary soldiers.

There were barely four bunk beds set up inside, without even space for luggage.

At this moment, the rest cabin already had several people inside, but they were all strangers to one another, either lying on their beds dozing or playing games on handheld devices.

Lu Yuan’s bunk was a lower one. He tossed his luggage onto the bed, using it as a pillow, and lied down directly.

"Excuse me, could you move aside?"

At this moment, a frail young man with a face full of acne and pimples, looking like a high school student, squeezed into the cabin.

Upon hearing the slightly familiar voice, Lu Yuan opened his eyes by a sliver and glanced at him.

However, seeing the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face, Lu Yuan’s expression turned strange.

Wasn’t this his middle school deskmate Wang Wei?

Under normal circumstances, he should be in high school, what was he doing here?

"Wang Wei is a year older than me. Could he have been conscripted too?"

Lu Yuan speculated inwardly.

This past year, too much had happened.

If he hadn’t run into his old middle school deskmate, he might have forgotten that he was supposed to be in high school.

Moreover, judging by the bruising around his mouth and his frail body, it was apparent that life wasn’t treating him well.

However, since Lu Yuan had changed his appearance, the other party apparently didn’t recognize him.

Lu Yuan also didn’t want to meddle, continuing to lie on the bed and rest his eyes.

Not long after.

A gentle female voice once again resonated inside the warship.

"Brave and fearless warriors, the warship has set off. Please adhere to the rules and try to avoid conflicts with others."

"If you encounter any emergencies, feel free to contact the staff onboard the warship!"

As soon as the voice ended.

The warship suddenly shook slightly before returning to its calm state.

The walls of the rest cabin gradually became transparent, creating a holographic projection that displayed the view of outer space to everyone.

Lying in their beds, it was as if they were immersed in the brilliant starry sky, dreamlike and wondrous.

But after the initial shock and excitement, people soon grew bored and turned off the holographic projection.

"The technology on Hulao Star is still too outdated. If we had the Star Alliance’s latest Spatial Transition Technology, we could reach Divine Wood Star in just half an hour."

"Rather than pulling fleets from developed star systems, the Star Alliance keeps sending us to the front lines; who knows what they’re thinking."

A bald man, roughly in his forties, couldn’t help but complain.

This remark opened up the previously quiet cabin.

"Those are the privileged citizens of the Star Alliance, unlike us from the bottom rung, destined to be cannon fodder."

"I heard a lot of cultivators have died on Divine Wood Star this time; even several Divinity Transformation Great Powers have fallen. Who knows how long we mere mortals will survive."

"Why think so much? Fortunately, I maxed out my three million Star Coin limit before departure and lived it up at the Wind Moon Nightclub for a few days."

"Even if I die on the battlefield, it’s all been worth it."

The bald man, with two dark circles, displayed a lascivious smile only understood by men.

"Damn, there’s that kind of tactic?"

The others were astonished, and immediately slapped their thighs in regret, cursing themselves for not thinking of it.

"Hey, young man, how did you get here?"

"Judging by your age, you should still be in school. Were you conscripted too?"

The bald man casually asked, looking at Wang Wei, the youngest-looking among them.

Hearing the question, Wang Wei’s eyes dimmed, his expression turning gloomy.

He had spent little time out of school, clearly unversed in worldly affairs, with his emotions written all over his face.

Being asked like this, he spilled everything as if pouring out beans.

"The Star Realm Army’s recruitment office told me the front lines were in dire straits. I had been drafted into the reserves."

"They said that if I was willing to go to the Divine Wood Star battlefield, my parents and sister would be suitably settled and not have to live in the slums forever."

"Not just me; most of my classmates were also forcibly conscripted, and many are on this warship."

Wang Wei pressed his lips together tightly, speaking in a complex tone.

With the endless influx of Dark Insect Race, Divine Wood Star had become a veritable meat grinder.

Even a Tier One Martial Artist couldn’t last three days there, let alone a reserve like him.

From the moment he boarded this warship, his life was on a countdown.

Listening to him.

The previously jolly atmosphere turned somber.

In the face of the brutal war, everyone couldn’t help but feel a chilling empathy.

After all, they were all ordinary people, not even quasi-martial artists.

How many days could they survive on the battlefield?

"Who would have thought a regular high schooler like Wang Wei would be conscripted? It seems the situation on Divine Wood Star is worsening."

Lu Yuan pondered while lying on the bed.

"Why worry so much? Enjoy the day as it comes."

"Our gathering here is fate as well."

"I happen to have a limit of over a hundred thousand Star Coins. Why don’t we all chip in some cash and rent a few virtual reality helmets for some fun?"

The bald man winked, reigniting the mood.

Though the warship lacked entertainment facilities.

There was Virtual Space!

Virtual Space offered a 100% experience with an authenticity level almost indistinguishable from real life.

"You guys go ahead. I just want to rest a bit."

Lu Yuan politely declined, lying on the bed and resting his eyes.

Recently out of school, Wang Wei was not used to such things, so he shook his head repeatedly in refusal.

However, others seemed tempted, immediately draping their arms around each other and heading out excitedly.

Several days passed in a blur.

Except for meals and bathroom breaks, Lu Yuan lay on his bed, meditating and breathing quietly throughout.

Initially, according to the warship computer’s prediction, the fleet would reach Divine Wood Star in five days.

However, due to a minor Dark Insect Race assault and damage to the space route.

The fleet took an additional four days before finally approaching the Divine Wood Star battlefield!
