Monarch of Evernight: Twenty-three rookie tasks

bsp;Qianye felt his stomach turning violently, and the other two young men were obviously no better than him. Just like that, half an hour after the airship took off, the three young people could no longer hold on and vomited.

In the evening, the airship bypassed the Yellowstone Gorge and landed at the Red Scorpion headquarters base at the northern end of Qinlu. But the three little rookies were not lucky enough to see the mysterious Red Scorpion headquarters immediately.

Before they even got off the airship, they received their first rookie task: cleaning work. They have to clean the troop transport compartment, and even the inside and outside of the airship. The standard is to be spotless.

Once Qianye got started, he realized that this job was no easier than fighting.

The vomit and dirt in the cabin of the airship are just that. What is really difficult to deal with is the oil stains accumulated over the years on the engine room and the inner and outer walls of the airship. Although the three rookies were given detergent specifically designed to clean oil stains, a large bucket of water was needed every time they wiped a small area.

In this way, the three people moved water back and forth to clean it. After one night, this 20-meter-long small airship was only half cleaned.

Each area of ​​the airship is strictly divided into three days' workload. If the task is not completed, there will be no food or sleep.

So the three little rookies spent the first three days after arriving at Red Scorpion in hunger, fatigue and sleepiness. Later, they could no longer smell the strong smell of oil on their bodies. After finally cleaning the airship, the three of them fell asleep directly after returning to the dormitory. I couldn't care less about taking a shower or eating.

During the past three days, Qianye showed consistent patience and meticulousness, not sparing any corner, even a little bit of oil had to be wiped clean repeatedly, and he also did a great job in cleaning and maintenance of the airship's power and transmission machinery. Perfect.

This is due to the gun maintenance he has learned, and the meticulous attitude towards weapons to maintain the big guy. The effect is even praised by the bald captain, who is known for being picky.

The other two rookies performed well in the first half of the day, but there were obvious oversights later on. Seeing that Qianye was as serious as ever, they intentionally or unintentionally left the hardest and dirtiest part to Qianye. Although on the surface it seemed that the three of them were doing about the same amount of work, Qianye actually did more than the two of them put together.

Qianye didn't care about this small gain or loss. He learned to carry out the instructor's orders to the letter in the Huangquan training camp. The so-called "to the letter" does not just mean the literal meaning, but also includes the spirit of the instructor's order.

In Huang Quan's dictionary, there is no such word as opportunism.

Seeing Qianye being like this, the two rookies were happy to go along with the situation and push more work onto Qianye. Both of them are the proud sons of their respective families, and they have successfully passed the one-in-a-thousand selection process to become the Red Scorpion. They have a bright future. Such a young man can endure the pain of bleeding and injuries, but when has he ever done such dirty work?

While the three rookies were sleeping, five people were having a meeting in a small conference room at the Red Scorpion headquarters, and the bald captain was among them.

The bald captain quickly wrote down the scores on the three sheets and handed them to the others.

After the soldiers circulated it for viewing, the form was in Wei Lishi's hands. He glanced at it and said to the bald captain: "Although I think this should be the result, the score is too disparate, right?"

"I grade them centimeter by centimeter! 'Scorpion Tail' is just like my child! Even the slightest change on it cannot escape my eyes. Those two little guys want to play with such little things in front of me Let’s talk about tricks in a hundred years! This little guy Qianye is good, very smart, and practical. I like it!”

Seeing the bald captain's insistence, Wei immediately nodded, signed his name on the form, and then said to the other three soldiers: "This is the test result. You decide for yourself!"

"Qianye." One person said first.

The other person immediately objected: "No! Last year you were the first to pick, but this year it's our team!"

The third one said leisurely: "That's not what you said. Your team used up this year's priority selection last year. Do you plan to use next year's selection as well?"

The three of them argued for a long time before finally dividing up the three rookies. In the end, the bearded man promised a lot of personal benefits with a heartfelt look on his face, and finally succeeded in getting Qianye.

The total score of the initial test was one hundred points, of which Qianye alone got sixty-five points, and the other two together only got thirty-five points.

Red Scorpion's points are used for a wide range of purposes, including military rank promotion, resource allocation, and even mission selection. The total score given in the initial test was very high. After that, there were few opportunities to encounter such high-scoring tasks throughout the rookie stage.

Of course Qianye and others don’t know this yet. Those two little guys thought they were smart and did everything right, but as the bald captain said, no one could hide their little tricks. In front of those big shots, playing tricks is tantamount to self-destruction.

Early the next morning, Qianye was awakened by a violent banging on the door.

"Get up, rookie! How long will you sleep until?!"

Qianye jumped out of bed, rushed out and opened the door. Standing at the door was a bearded officer with an extremely tall build, measuring two and a half meters tall! The slender Qianye stood in front of him, as petite as a doll.

The bearded man twitched his nose hard, frowned and said: "Go take a shower and get rid of the smell of engine oil! You have it"

He looked at his watch and then said: "You have five full minutes! Brush yourself from top to bottom! I'll wait for you here!" The officer said all his words in yelling.

"Who are you?" Qianye asked cautiously.

"My surname is Nan, and others call me Nan Batian!"

Hearing another mighty and domineering name, Qianye was stunned for a second, but was immediately drowned by the deafening roar that followed.

"You don't need to know my original name! You will be a member of my Tiger and Scorpion Camp from now on. Rookie! Go take a shower, now!"

Qianye immediately saluted with a military salute: "Yes, sir!" Then he rushed into the bathroom like flying.

It took Qianye three minutes to wash himself off, then rushed out and put on a brand new military uniform from outside.

This set of military uniforms continues the pure black background color of the Qin Empire's military headquarters, but the collar, placket, etc. are decorated with red lines, and a scorpion pattern is added to the upper arm.

It was a scorpion with black and red bodies, and its tail needle was eye-catching scarlet. This is the red scorpion that can be seen on every continent, a small thing only the size of a palm, but one of the most poisonous creatures on land. If an ordinary adult is stung by a red scorpion, it will only take ten seconds for the poison to cause death.

Seeing Qianye coming out, Nan Batian turned around and walked away. His stride was half longer than that of ordinary people. Qianye quickly jogged to keep up.

"There are a lot of things to do today! You come with me to get the equipment first, and then I will take you to your own room. Our Tiger Scorpion Camp has our own barracks, so we don’t have to live in this **** place. Then I will take you You go to several important places in the camp, and then you will know where to repair the gun, where to get some good cheap stuff, and you can even take on missions privately, if it does not conflict with your combat missions. But private tasks won’t be available until you get out of the rookie stage, so don’t think about it now!”

At this time, Qianye had become very accustomed to Nan Batian's way of speaking and kept the key points in mind one by one.

Soon Nan Batian took Qianye out of the temporary barracks and walked into Red Scorpion's official headquarters camp.

Stepping into the giant metal door that was thirty meters high and one and a half meters thick, Qianye's heart felt as if it had been hit hard. The sight in front of him was so shocking that he was speechless. Even though he had already had a bird's-eye view of Xiangyang Military Industrial City, he was still impressed by this huge war machine.

Kilometers away, Red Scorpion's headquarters building is 600 meters high and stands like a sail. The red paint on the outside has been rusted, revealing the metal background. But this does not affect the grandeur of that building at all, but adds a lot of historical dignity and precipitation to it!

Several bat-wing airships are rising from the top of the headquarters building and flying rapidly in different directions.

On the horizon in the distance, a giant floating boat slowly emerged, with an air bag above it that was hundreds of meters long!

On the right side is a huge airship base. Many airships are taking off and landing. There are small airships, medium and large airships, and even two warships over 100 meters long. On the other side of the base, there are seven old-fashioned aerostats parked in a row that rely on air bags to lift off.

Next to the base, there are rows of various tracked combat vehicles parked, numbering in the hundreds! The number of trucks is too numerous to count.

Qianye had seen pictures and models of these basic armaments in class, and only after seeing the real ones did he feel the unparalleled visual impact.

On the left are functional buildings of various sizes. Qianye even saw a factory that could accommodate giant aerostats.

The top of the hundred-meter-high factory building is arched. It is now opened to both sides, revealing the mast and the upper part of the hull of a medium-sized aerostat. Many workers are climbing on it, like ants. . The steel flowers flashed with red flames and flowed down from the huge metal surface like glaciers. It was obvious that intense work was going on.

Farther away, there are energy facilities connected together.

It was a group of buildings in the shape of perpetual towers. More than ten giant chimneys were connected in a row like the legendary giant Kunlun trees connecting the sky and the earth. A huge mass of air in the sky.

Just looking at it from a distance, one can imagine how much turbulent energy must be coming along the pipeline to drive the huge Red Scorpion base.

Nan Batian led Qianye to the parking lot, jumped into a small off-road vehicle with the door open, and drove towards the arms warehouse on the left. It is really not easy to do something in such a huge camp without a car.

In the hall of the arms warehouse, Nan Batian shouted directly inside: "This is our rookie from the Tiger and Scorpion Battalion! Get a set of standard equipment and a sniper kit!"

A moment later, a large backpack and a black suitcase were thrown directly out of the window. No one spoke or showed their face during the entire process.

Nan Batian caught the things one by one and shouted "Thank you!" He turned to Qianye and said, "Let's go, I will take you to the Tiger and Scorpion Camp!"

The Tiger Scorpion Camp is in the northeast corner of the headquarters base, next to the Blood Scorpion Camp.

Just looking at the appearance of the two camps, Qianye felt that Hu Xie's situation did not seem to be very good. Not to mention that the camp was half smaller than the Blood Scorpion, and the various vehicles parked outside the camp were all old and new, completely incomparable to the brand-new vehicles of the Blood Scorpion. Moreover, the Tiger Scorpion camp seemed very deserted, unlike the Blood Scorpion camp where people came and went.

Nan Batian scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Let's put it this way, there is indeed a gap between me and the Blood Scorpion guy in terms of command. So the Blood Scorpion often sends out the entire battalion to do big business. Back and forth. Yes, our Tiger Scorpion’s funds are not quite sufficient.”
