Counterfeit Hero

"Preserve yourself, strike the enemy! These eight words, the most basic rule: obey orders. Fight when needed, run when not. War isn’t a one-day affair." Seeing that time was almost up, the Fatty, who came to make an acquaintance and ended up annoying everyone, stood up to leave.

As the three guides escorted him across the field, they saw a neat formation of Freedom Fighters.

Back at the dorm, Fatty took a shower and turned on the TV. Gazalin’s news agencies were under Royal control. Although this country wasn’t exactly a dictatorship, it had strict power concentration. Essentially, the concept of press freedom was unworkable here. The News Management Bureau conducted strict reviews of news, especially those involving the Royal family’s image and political direction. Sometimes, one had to admit that news control had a significant stabilizing effect.

Currently, the news was broadcasting the battle status in the Galileo Star System. The news commentator, under the host’s guidance, was spitting out words: "... The Gazalin Empire Army is achieving continuous victories, the corrupt and fallen Federation is absolutely no match for the Gazalin Iron Blood Warriors. They will soon be driven out of the Galileo Star System. The great Gazalin Royal Family and the just Gazalin people will ultimately achieve brilliant victory."

Fatty watched the battle footage in the news, laughing at the commentator’s righteous indignation. As one of the people who understood this war the best, Fatty was very familiar with the situation on both sides. Currently, the ones gritting their teeth to endure should be the Gazalin Empire. Their logistics and troops were already struggling under the growing power of the Federation. Watching the lies in the news, Fatty thought that sometimes news could be a wonderful form of entertainment. If these things were recorded and compared after the war, many people might laugh their teeth out.

Fatty was drying his hair with a towel while wearing only underpants when suddenly there was a knock on the door. This scoundrel had no awareness of being a civilized person, watching TV while opening the door. He turned his head to look and foolishly asked, "What’s up?" Standing at the door was the pretty receptionist.

Christina seriously looked at the Fatty who was only wearing underpants and not embarrassed at all. Until Fatty became a bit impatient, Christina finally confirmed that this guy had no sense of shame. She smiled gently, "Mr. Zhang, the technical department invites you over for a discussion regarding a problem."

"Oh..." Fatty nodded, "I’ll go right away." Christina smiled slightly, nodded, and turned to leave. As Fatty was about to go inside, he suddenly remembered something and shouted to Christina, "Hey, wait a moment, I can’t find the way to the technical department."
