MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 19
Fighters and warships are not just weapons to kill the enemy, they are the life of the soldier.
That's what Colonel Edgar used to say.
When Shang Ping boarded the space cruise ship heading to the Canon military fortress and saw nearly a hundred Mars single-person fighter jets in the cruise ship's huge indoor parking lot, this sentence involuntarily appeared in his mind. Although he could not clearly understand the meaning of this sentence, Shang Ping still remembered the expression on Colonel Edgar's face when he said this sentence.
Deep, serious, even with a certain solemnity, like an oath.
His adopters, they are spoken of, not them.
Looking at the busy engineers in the parking lot, Shang Ping couldn't help recalling the real cosmic war scenes shown in the classroom. When the particle cannons and laser bombs exploded like fireworks, the dark cosmic abyss seemed to be torn apart. There were cracks open, the scorching bright light that stabbed the eyes, the huge battleship was cut in half, and countless fighter planes were swallowed by the beautiful bright light and turned into cosmic dust...
Sitting in the practice cabin and seeing these battleships that represent the lives of soldiers is really a world of difference.
"Shang Ping, what's wrong with you?"
A somewhat icy hand held Shang Ping's shoulder, which also dispelled some chaotic thoughts in Shang Ping's mind.
"nothing."
Shang Ping turned his head and smiled at Austin, shook his head, and along with the other students, lined up on the conveyor belt of the cruise ship. Following the semaphore issued by the ground controller, the hatches of the cruise ship slowly closed, and with the liftoff of two cruise ships and a convoy, a vortex-like airflow rose flat on the ground, swept the dust into the air, and the same air. The clouds are flying together.
This time, a total of 538 students from Madoff Military Academy went to the Kanon military fortress. If these young men had not yet been on the battlefield, this team could form a small fleet with considerable combat power.
As a non-graduate student, Shang Ping has a slightly different schedule. He will join eight other non-graduate students, including Austin, to participate in military theory courses, and after arriving at the Canon Fortress, he will be allowed to observe Madoff. An actual combat exercise between the students of the Military Academy and the one-man fighter unit of the Eighth Fleet stationed in the fortress.
"Why can't we participate in this exercise and can only watch it?" a junior student complained: "We are also here to participate in the internship, aren't we?"
Except for Austin and Shang Ping, the other six students obviously held the same opinion about this student's complaint. Shang Ping only thought the gray-haired boy in front of him was very interesting. If he was really dissatisfied, why should he not raise it to the instructor, but only dare to complain in private? You know, Shang Ping almost cheered when he learned that he didn't have to board the single fighter himself. Austin glanced at the students coldly, and continued to study the tactical treatise in his hand without saying a word.
After getting acquainted with Austin, Shang Ping found that this big boy of the same age as himself has a very stubborn side. This does not mean that Austin is not sociable. On the contrary, in dealing with people and interpersonal relationships, Austin is a little cold, but He can always maintain the most basic etiquette, without involving his personal likes and dislikes. This impressed Shang Ping very much. Austin's character, in the eyes of these teenage boys, is often automatically replaced by a synonym for arrogance and hypocrisy, and John Jonathan has complained about the business level more than once.
From another point of view, Shang Ping thinks that Austin's character is not bad. Glancing at Austin's soft blonde hair and emerald eyes, if this beauty is not a high-mountain flower, people dare not get too close, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble at the Madoff Military Academy.
Shang Ping was thinking, the book in his hand had not turned a page, and the complaints of the other seven people continued. Austin walked up to Shang Ping at some point, sat on the arm of the chair, and pointed his white fingertips on On a certain line of the book page, it said: "This theory of interstellar jumping has been proved to be completely unworkable. How can it be printed in the book?"
Shang Ping raised his head, and his eyes met Austin's slightly pointed chin, graceful curves, fair skin, and not very obvious Adam's apple.
In fact, Shang Ping really did this.
Austin was stunned, and the other seven boys also stopped complaining and looked at Shang Ping and Austin stupidly. Thinking of the rumors in the academy that were like a blazing prairie a while ago, I opened my mouth involuntarily.
"Shang Ping?"
"Ah, sorry!"
"Why apologise? I don't mind."
Austin grabbed Shang Ping's finger that he didn't have time to retract, held it in the palm of his hand, and covered it around his neck. He looked at Shang Ping with his green eyes and said, "Your body temperature is very comfortable, I like it very much."
Very comfortable?
"My pleasure."
Shang Ping hooked the corner of his mouth and said this profound sentence.
The black eyes and the green eyes looked at each other silently, and the black-haired boy and the blond boy seemed to be surrounded by a layer of pink bubbles. The atmosphere in the room began to become a little strange, and the remaining seven young men suddenly had the illusion that they were redundant at present, but their bodies were stuck to the chair like roots and could not move at all.
The group of poor boys was rescued by the collective order from the indoor communicator. They had never felt that the instructor's thick voice was like the sound of heaven like this moment.
Shang Ping immediately stood up from his chair and jumped on the conveyor belt first. Austin looked at his right hand and immediately followed Shang Ping in front of him.
The conveyor belt sent the nine people to the meeting point, and the graduate students have already completed the team. After the nine people returned to the team, the instructor announced that they had entered the interstellar corridor connecting the Royce celestial body and the Kanon military fortress. An hour later, they arrived at the Kanon military fortress.
"In an hour, your identities will be completely changed! You are no longer ignorant boys in the academy, but Mars soldiers who can board the battleship! You will undergo the most severe test since admission. Dove Military Academy successfully graduated! Become a glorious national soldier! Don't worry about the losers, the Jagged Eagle cruiser and laser shovel are waiting for you not far away! You will spend the perfect three-year vacation on the savage planet 'Life'
"clear!"
"I can't hear it, do you understand?!"
"clear!"
"Be louder! Prove to me you're not Seth's soft-footed cowards!"
"clear!"
The roar of youth almost broke through the hull of the ship, and Shang Ping didn't understand why he shouted along with everyone. However, this feeling is not bad.
In the Kanon military fortress, Ed plus correction was busy arranging the fleet's recent patrol tasks. Due to Commander Terry's concerns, the Sixth Fleet had to adjust the original patrol coordinates accordingly, and pushed out the warning range. Nearly a million kilometers. Although it is not too far, what makes Edgar very nervous is that in this way, the patrol unit of the Sixth Fleet is likely to encounter the patrol personnel of the Royce artificial celestial body. No, the chance of encountering it is almost as high as more than eighty percent. If misunderstandings are caused by the other party, border friction will definitely be inevitable.
"Brain!"
Throwing away the light pen in his hand, Colonel Edgar leaned on the back of the wide chair, put his legs up on the table, and folded his hands behind his head. Star Guest, what a mess!"
"Lord Colonel, the commander is looking for you."
"Ah! Can't you give me a rest?! Except for me, is there no one in the Kanon military fortress who can torture the commander who is as dead as a stone?!"
Edgar shouted loudly, and the poor guy in the communicator was stunned, but he could only see Colonel Edgar's back with obvious anger.
Commander Terry had never been described like that before. However, a dead brain like a stone? It seems so. In less than five seconds, Colonel Edgar's famous words spread throughout the entire Canon Fortress.
Colonel Edgar rushed into the command module with a black face, but walked out of the command module with a smile on his face the next moment, holding the list of the Madoff Military Academy students who came to the Canon Military Fort for internship this time.
Shang Ping baby, are you coming to see uncle? Uncle is so impressed!
At this time, Commander Terry was sitting at the desk with a puzzled look on his face. He was very puzzled that Edgar, who was still angry just now and wished he could fight him with a laser gun, why, after seeing the list, Will you take the initiative to ask to be responsible for arranging this internship? Hasn't he always disliked trouble?
