Byron's Blade

Mu Li didn't understand what Jill meant by making friends.In the army, there is a deep camaraderie. They have served as soldiers and fought wars together, so the relationship is naturally deep.But she is now in a special situation. She has just been transferred to the third squadron, and she is the deputy of the left-wing squadron, and Jill is the squadron leader of the right-wing squadron. Speaking of which, the relationship is rather delicate.She is neither her immediate boss, nor her comrade-in-arms at the same level, nor her subordinate, so it is a bit abrupt to say that she is a friend all of a sudden.

"Thanks to the lieutenant for looking up to me." Mu Li replied indistinctly.To be honest, her back is sweating now, Lieutenant Jill is a very powerful person, and his blue eyes seem to have the ability to see through, Mu Li feels as if she has seen through her.

Mu Li just learned from Lieutenant Jill that she was newly transferred to the third squadron ten seconds ago, which really surprised her.She did a lot of homework before coming to the South Bunker, especially using her current authority to check the personal resumes and information of Jill and Rodcliffe.But she was still negligent, and actually forgot to check her resume, which should have been the top priority.

However, after hearing what Lieutenant Jill said just now, Mu Li suddenly realized something. Lieutenant Jill said that he wanted to be friends with her, probably because of the good intentions of admiration, and the hope that he could be promoted to her under her command in the future.

This is about the upgrade system for the ranks of the federal army.The Federation has a mandatory military service system. Every federal citizen who has reached the age of 16 is required to serve for two years.Two years later, there will be a big exam, which is equivalent to the college entrance examination in China in the past.Outstanding conscripts selected through examinations can be formally enlisted as professional soldiers, and those with excellent grades in special subjects can be assigned to work in munitions factories or armament companies.Unqualified persons are not allowed to allocate opportunities and find their own way out.There are no universities in this world. The top institutions of learning are military academies, where the most elite talents and knowledge are concentrated.However, military academies do not recruit recruits for conscripts and ordinary citizens, only professional soldiers.Therefore, those who are not qualified are equivalent to missing the top universities in this life.

After the conscripts formally enlisted and became professional soldiers, they began to accumulate qualifications and military merits and upgrade their ranks.Every year, the military academy holds regular admissions examinations, and the upper limit of age for registration is 20 years old.In other words, every professional soldier has 2 chances to take the military academy exam.If you can be admitted to the military academy, you will be at least the rank of lieutenant as soon as you leave the military academy after 5 years, and your future is bright.And if you can't get into the military academy, you can only go through the qualifications slowly, accumulate military merits, and upgrade very slowly, just like Rodcliffe, who has been a soldier all his life, but only has the rank of captain.

He must have never been to a military academy, and his promotion to the rank of second lieutenant depends entirely on his first-class and second-class merit.Lieutenant Jill was born in a military academy. This American commander has rich knowledge and strong command ability, and he will definitely develop better than himself in the future.Saying this, naturally expresses the meaning of support.Although Mu Li still doesn't understand why she is so good that Jill can fancy her, but she is a newcomer, so it is good to have more contacts, and she will not be so stupid as to refuse.

It's just that she's worried about being drawn into partisanship.This kind of thing is too common in the army. Young, promising and ambitious officers recruit like-minded people in the army in order to establish their own power in the future. She has suffered in the Huaxia army.Now she doesn't know the relationship between the left wing and the right wing of the third squadron, but after all, she and Jill belong to the left and right combat units. Although she will not reject Jill, she doesn't intend to get too close to her, otherwise she will be in her own unit. Where is Li's position?Therefore, Mu Li's answer seemed a bit ambiguous.

Jill seemed to understand what she was thinking, and with a chuckle, he changed the subject.

"I've made contact with Captain Forssman, who rushed out of the ring with her left escort 'Dark Blade' and is now free of the swarm and ambling northwest to join us. We can't be in Griffin The delay is too long, we will set off at noon tomorrow. Your mecha is lost, so I can only wrong you to take an armored vehicle."

Mu Li's answer was only one word: "Yes!"

Although Jill spoke slowly, Mu Li still needed time to absorb and digest the information in her words.She is still very unfamiliar with this world, and she only remembers the names of the people involved with her, so it is more difficult to check the numbers at the moment.The Captain Forsman that Jill mentioned, she had to react for a long time before she realized that she should refer to Chris Forsman, the squadron leader of their third squadron.She browsed through the list of officers and soldiers of the third squadron, and picked up the most important key figures for a detailed look.As the leader of the third squadron, Chris Fussman will naturally not miss it.

This American female captain has a very high reputation in the third squadron. Her mech driving skills are superb, her marksmanship is superb, and she is praised as a "fire/gun god". Her personal combat power is at the forefront of military officers. All are outstanding.She also has her own style in leading troops, whether it is training strategy or combat tactics, she has amazing insights.Therefore, he was promoted to the rank of captain at a young age and became the commander of the main force. It is estimated that he will be promoted again soon.

However, this mission made this "Fire/Spearman" suffer a lot.Escorting the target object codenamed "Dark Blade" back to the city of Athena is not a difficult task. The road paving and obstacle removal between the "Secret Area [-]" and the main city were completed many years ago, so as long as you only need to follow the safe route, it stands to reason that there should be no problems.

Unfortunately, something went wrong!

They bumped into a rare swarm of insects, the team was dispersed, and the entire right wing was separated from the main force. Mu Li himself, as one of the commanders of the left wing, was also dispersed, lost in the primeval jungle, and was almost killed by a group of people. Super predators ate it.It's just that she didn't experience these things personally, and she didn't remember them at all. They were all inferred based on intelligence records.

By the way, she almost forgot, where is the soldier Rogge who saved her now?

"Your power exoskeleton and armor have been repaired by the logistics for you. Your clothes are torn. I have prepared a new set of combat uniforms for you. Later, you will follow Lilian to the military tent to collect Take a moment." Jill glanced at the combat uniform Mu Li was wearing, and said with a smile.There was a hole in the sleeve of the upper arm, pierced by Doran's poisonous branch.

"Thank you, Lieutenant." Mu Li thanked her, she was indeed a female officer, she was really careful.When she was in the army, although she was a special female soldier, most of the officers were men, especially the thick ones.It is quite a sense of intimacy to meet a female officer.He looked up at the female adjutant standing behind Jill, and she was the Lilian that Jill was talking about.

Lilian Hoover, American, has the same rank of second lieutenant as Mu Li. This pretty female officer with freckles serves as the backbone commander on the right wing and is Jill's right-hand man.It's just that after she came in from Mu Li, she glanced at Mu Li from time to time, with an interesting smile on the corner of her mouth, which made Mu Li feel a little uncomfortable.

"One last thing, there is a bonfire party tonight, remember to come to participate, the soldiers are very eager to meet you. Remember to bring our Sergeant Roger, he is now living with Leon, and Leon can bring you a Road." Jill looked back at Leon and said, the black male adjutant behind her was Leon.

"Yes." Mu Li and Leon replied at the same time.

Mu Li didn't quite understand why all the soldiers wanted to see her.It seems that the most urgent task after going out later is to find out who the original owner of this body is.

Leon and Lilian had already gone to open the door first, and Mu Li also stood up, saluted Lieutenant Jill, and then walked out.After going out the door and returning to the curved corridor, the black male adjutant strode forward to lead the way, while Lilian slowed down, stood side by side with Mu Li, blinked and smiled and said:

"You are different from what I imagined, the legendary assassin second lieutenant."

"Assassin?" Mu Li was very puzzled.

"What a surprise, your legend has already spread throughout the entire army. During the Shennongjia breakout battle four years ago, a young female corporal of the Central Army's transport brigade single-handedly went deep into the spider-shaped first-level predator without being equipped with a mecha. In the hunter's lair, with only two short-bladed sabers, he cleanly killed two first-class spiders, and rescued 36 scientists from the expedition team who were trapped, including General Friesman's daughter, Miss Lanny. Her superb coldness The weapon handling skills and lightning-like body skills are amazing, and he has since been crowned the title of "Assassin in the Army". Isn't that how the precious Fernando's first-class merit was collected by you? My second lieutenant? "Lilian smiled and talked.

Mu Li laughed dryly twice, his clothes on his back were soaked in cold sweat, and he thought: That's not the girl I fucked, I'm under a lot of pressure when you say that!

"Seriously, Second Lieutenant Mu Li, why did you transfer from the Central Army to the Western Army? You saved Miss Lanny, how could General Friesman be willing to send you to a remote local army?"

"This is an order from above, and I don't know about it." Mu Li replied, this kind of official answer would not have any flaws, so she answered without much hesitation.

Lilian nodded approvingly, and said, "I really don't understand what the people above are thinking."

"But Second Lieutenant Mu Li, can you tell me if Miss Lani is as beautiful and intelligent as the rumors?" She asked again.

Why is this person so talkative? I don't know Miss Lani, Mu Li is really suffering.Thinking quickly in her mind, she replied after a while:

"You should have seen Miss Lani's photo, so why ask me?" Indeed, the Jiushen system is so powerful that you can search for any federal citizen's personal information if you want, but it has authority control and privacy control That's all.Even Mu Li, who has just arrived here, understands that public figures like "Miss Lani" in Lilian's mouth should not be unrecognized. After all, he is a person living in the era of big data and self-media in the 21st century.

"Indeed, but I don't have the honor to witness a real person with my own eyes." Lilian said regretfully.

"Well, it's actually not much different from the photo." Mu Li lied casually.

"Really, I really want to see it with my own eyes." Lilian's eyes lit up.

What kind of person is this Miss Lanny that can make Second Lieutenant Lilian so fascinated?Although Mu Li was very puzzled at the moment, he still prayed that the broken-mouthed Lilian would stop talking to her.

Fortunately, the silent black second lieutenant Leon had already led them out of the south bunker and arrived at the large armament tent on the northwest side.This big tent is really ridiculously big, the inside is as spacious as a basketball court, and there is more than one tent.Mu Li entered the account, took his new combat uniform under the guidance of the logistics soldier, and then tried the repaired powered exoskeleton.

The powered exoskeletons of all soldiers are neatly arranged and stored in the armament tent according to the number of soldiers. During non-combat periods, these powered exoskeletons need to be charged and adjusted, which is the task of the logistics soldiers.When the soldiers gather for an emergency mission, they will go to the big tent to put on the powered exoskeleton first. Skilled soldiers can wear it within ten seconds. It seems that there is still a competition in the army to compete for the speed of wearing the exoskeleton.

In Muli's era, the powered exoskeleton was only a conceptual product and was not widely used, and the energy source was also hybrid fuel power.Today's powered exoskeletons are as common as guns, and the energy source has also been replaced by a new energy source that Mu Li has heard of for the first time - Kejing.Engraved crystal is a new kind of ore produced after the outbreak of nuclear war and the great change of the earth's crust. It is transparent and the lines and lines inside can be seen, as if carved out by a knife, so it is called engraved crystal.Engraved crystals can generate energy no less than that of small nuclear reactions, and the accompanying heat dissipation is extremely low, not easy to lose, and very durable, so they are widely used.Nowadays, mechs and powered exoskeletons, including vehicles and other means of transportation, are using this new energy.

It was the first time for Mu Li to wear a powered exoskeleton on her own. She thought she would hesitate, but found that it was not difficult. The movements and steps seemed to be engraved in her instincts, and she finished wearing it naturally. relieved.

"It's a pity, Second Lieutenant Mu Li, I can only accompany you here, and I have other tasks to do next." After leaving the armament tent, Lilian said.

"That's really a pity." Mu Li was secretly happy in his heart, saying that the girl was finally leaving.

"Then, see you tonight." Lilian saluted Mu Li with a smile, then glanced at Leon, then turned and left.

"Second Lieutenant Mu, please come with me, I will take you to see Rogge." The silent black second lieutenant finally spoke.

"It's troublesome." Mu Li nodded.
