Monarch of Evernight: Graduation at Seventeen
bsp;There is an unwritten rule in the Imperial Army. If you reach the second level combat soldier before the age of eighteen, you can join the special forces corps. But the top few in the special corps only recruit second-level soldiers who are less than seventeen years old. And this is only the minimum threshold, and many other conditions must be met before it is possible to be favored by the most elite legions in the empire.
Qianye is already sixteen.
It takes time to ignite nodes, consolidate strength, and prepare for the graduation exam. If he had to reach the level of second-level combat soldier near the age of seventeen, then it would be difficult for Qianye to obtain admission to the special forces corps.
Nearly all graduates of the Huangquan training camp will serve in the Imperial Army for a few years before pursuing their own careers. From the moment he entered the training camp, Qianye had secretly set his ambition. Not only did he want to come out alive, he also wanted to enter the top, or at least the first-class, special forces.
Only in this way, Qianye feels that he will not disgrace the surname he will get, Lin.
Qianye does not lack talent, but that old injury almost ruined everything about him! However, in this war-torn and turbulent world, everyone only cares about the results and no one cares about the process.
Qianye is already sixteen years old, but he has not yet broken through to Level 2. This is the result. And tonight, he wants to change this result!
Under the moonlight, Qianye's force began to surge, gradually gathering into a tide, and then pushed through the scar area step by step with difficulty, and began to impact the node barrier.
Tides of force are constantly generated, and inhuman pain is constantly coming. But Qianye's heart was already blank, quietly waiting for the result.
The seventeenth round of the force tide has passed, and the eighteenth round of the force tide has finally arrived!
Qianye's face was pale and he was sweating profusely. His whole body was trembling under the powerful force shock and severe pain. Every wave of the force makes Qianye feel like he has died and been reborn!
In the blink of an eye, from one wave to nine waves, when the ninth wave hit the node barrier hard, Qianye seemed to hear a snapping sound. Countless turtles appeared on the originally indestructible barrier under the impact of extremely powerful force. Breaking, breaking is just around the corner!
The tide recedes slowly, and the Force returns to calm. Qianye's mind finally relaxed, then his vision went dark and he fainted.
When Qianye woke up, it was already two days later.
He opened his eyes and saw a familiar classroom, with a cold metal platform beneath him. Apparently Shentu had saved him again.
"Nonsense! It's just nonsense!" This old man who never took living things seriously actually scolded Qianye like this.
Shentu's medical skills are indeed powerful. Qianye was forced to withstand eighteen rounds of force tides, and his internal organs were damaged everywhere. He could heal such injuries without leaving any hidden dangers. No matter how Shentu scolded him, Qianye could only feel grateful to him now.
With eighteen rounds of force tides as the basis, one month later, Qianye finally ignited the node and became a second-level warrior.
After becoming a second-level soldier, most people will awaken an ability related to the Force. A lucky few will also be able to choose between several abilities. Qianye, who was originally extremely talented, had the right to choose. He could choose one of his abilities among heavy warheads, force jumps, and double shooting.
Qianye didn’t think much and directly chose the heavy warhead.
Heavy slug is a very common ability, dedicated to Force firearms. When this ability is activated, it can fire a blow that is much more powerful than usual, and its power is about one and a half times that of a normal shot.
After Qianye ignited the second force node, he found that the force generated from this node was extremely fierce and extremely difficult to control. In this case, a heavy warhead that only focuses on power is the most suitable ability for him.
After another two months of careful preparation, Qianye applied to take the training camp’s graduation exam. When he walked towards the Grand Canyon, in addition to being equipped with a basic field dagger, he also carried a strange rifle behind him.
This is a Force rifle. Although it is only the simplest and most basic model, it is still a Force gun!
The training camp will only issue one dagger to each student during the graduation exam, and no other equipment is allowed. However, there is an exception for equipment handmade by students themselves, and anything can be brought into the examination room.
Qianye’s perfect scores in all knowledge classes finally paid off at this moment. Starting from the most basic material processing, he actually made a force rifle by himself! Although this is just the simplest and most primitive Force gun, the energy compression device can only store one Force bomb.
In this way, Qianye became the first student in thirty years to take the graduation exam with a force gun.
The crystal lizard is indeed a formidable enemy, but that is for students holding simple daggers. A hundred meters away, Qianye began to charge the force gun, aim, activate the heavy warhead, and then shoot.
A ball of blazing red light flew out from the muzzle of the gun, directly blowing away half of the crystal lizard's head!
It's that simple. No one stipulates that you can't use Force firearms, as long as you can make them. Moreover, Qianye's spear was extremely powerful. With the addition of the heavy warhead, it was already equivalent to a blow from a third-level soldier.
Three months after his sixteenth birthday, Qianye finally graduated from the Huangquan training camp.
The news of Qianye’s graduation spread quickly. A few days later, Shi Yan drove a heavy-duty truck to the mouth of the valley where the training camp was located.
In a flash, Qianye had been in the Huangquan training camp for nine full years.
At this time, Qianye was 1.85 meters tall, not much shorter than the tall and tall Shi Yan. His body was not as muscular as Shi Yan's, but he never felt thin. His body was well-proportioned and slender, and every line was full of tension.
Shi Yan is still the same, but there are some traces of time on his brows and corners of his eyes, making people suddenly aware of the ruthlessness of time.
Seeing Qianye, Shi Yan's dull face suddenly became brighter. He raised his hand as if to touch Qianye's head out of habit, then punched Qianye's chest hard and praised: "Good boy! Finally made it out alive! Come here, let me take a good look!"
Qianye's facial features are pure and clear, still very delicate, but he just received a punch from Shi Yan, but he didn't even shake, which made Shi Yan even more happy, and he pulled the rough lines on his face like a knife or an axe. Turned into a smile.
Shi Yan greeted Qianye and jumped into the cab of the heavy-duty truck. This soldier who rarely smiles a few times a year has a soft spot for this rough style heavy-duty truck.
After Qianye got into the car, Shi Yan drove away quickly.
In the cab, Shi Yan said: "Shuai Lin was very happy when he heard that you had graduated, and immediately asked me to pick you up. But unfortunately, Shuai Lin was currently in charge in the western part of the empire, and he couldn't get away at all. , I’m afraid you won’t be able to see him in a short time.”
"What happened over there in Western Xinjiang?" Qianye asked.
"There is a rebellion in two provinces and they want independence. It's not a big deal, but it's just a little troublesome to deal with. Those rebels are very cunning. They always hide in the homes of some civilians to hide their identities."
"Rebels?" This was the first time Qianye heard this word.
Shi Yan said in disgust: "They are just a group of idiots who don't know the heights of heaven and earth! The empire has been fighting the dark races with all its strength. Instead of contributing to the front lines, these guys keep causing trouble in the rear. Want to overthrow the empire's rule? Hey, the empire has been established for 1,200 years and now has 300 provinces spanning four continents. How can these clowns be able to bring it down?"
Qianye listened quietly. If Lin Xitang can be dragged into Western Xinjiang with the strength of two provinces, then the rebels will certainly not be as vulnerable as Shi Yan said.
Shi Yan drove in silence for a while, and then said with some seriousness: "The rebels are very troublesome. As I said just now, they tend to hide among ordinary people, and the people in those two provinces are also very ignorant, many People would rather be implicated and executed than give them protection. Lin Shuai couldn't do anything to them, so they thought they had a plan. Huh, what do these idiots know? Lin Shuai just doesn't want to hurt innocent people. The iron-fisted measures of strengthening the walls and clearing the country were not used, which delayed the war."
Speaking of this, Shi Yan paused for a long time before letting out a heavy breath, "It won't be like this for long. After a while, if there is still no progress, Lin Shuai will change defense, and someone else will take over. No matter which general of the faction, the two provinces will be filled with blood!"
Qianye suddenly felt inexplicably heavy. Even Shi Yan would describe it as a river of blood, so how many people would die?
In the Huangquan training camp, Qianye had killed people, and he no longer regarded human life as something that should not be taken lightly. But compared with these famous generals of the empire, Qianye is far from nothing. Even if he becomes a top killer in the future, the number of people he has killed in his life and the dark races combined may not be worth a light order from these generals.
The heavy-duty truck was running wildly.
"Qianye!" Shi Yan said suddenly.
"Huh?"
"Tomorrow happens to be the recruitment day for the Imperial Military. I will take you there to take the assessment. Perform well. This time, two of the five elite elite legions of the Empire will have examiners present. If you perform well, you will have a chance. Get in! ”
"I will try my best!"
Shi Yan suddenly sighed and said, "I hope you can enter the elite army and become a famous general in the empire one day! Lin Shuai has too many enemies in the army."
Hearing this, Qianye's heart suddenly sank.
Shi Yan took out something from his arms, handed it to Qianye, and said, "This is what Lin Shuai gave you."
When Qianye took it over and looked at it, he found that it was a piece of special paper folded squarely with dark lines on the surface. When he unfolded it, the three characters "Lin Qianye" were written on it in strong and powerful handwriting. However, the corners of the paper are a little fuzzy, the creases seem to have aged, and the ink is a little faded.
"That was written by Lin Shuai nine years ago." Shi Yan seemed to know what Qianye was thinking.
"Nine years ago?" Qianye couldn't believe it. Nine years ago, wasn't it when he first entered the Huangquan training camp?
"When Lin Shuai asked me to take you to Huangquan, he said that you would come back alive." Shi Yan said with a smile.
The heavy-duty truck drove all the way and arrived at an airship base late at night. A cargo airbag boat happened to be entering the port. Shi Yan drove up with the car and people.
The airship simply made supplies and began its return voyage in the middle of the night.
Destination, Xiangyang.
This is the largest military industrial city on the Qin continent and ranks third in the entire empire.
