under the mask

"Ang um—" Da Mao generously threw a transparent sugar grain to feed his younger brother.Seven for you!

The two-haired little pig dragon glanced lazily at the sugar grain in front of him, hugged his little paw dismissively, and licked it up with the tip of his pink and tender tongue. The sweet taste pleased the little guy, with big eyes squinted.

The three men stood beside them silently watching the two dragon cubs roll comfortably on the pillow. The dragon scales on one body were like flowing flames, while the other was pink and tender. As soon as it was pressed, the two chubby young dragons rolled together, and they didn't know what to say.

"Da Mao didn't even protect the food!" Li Wei looked at his eldest son suspiciously. If Xiao Mao's share is separated, it is estimated that the lazy and weak Xiao Mao will starve to death like the piglet who can't get into the trough.So the biggest possibility is that Da Mao doesn't like the transparent one.

Sure enough, after Ermao finished licking his candy, he began to look at his brother eagerly. Da Mao overbearingly pressed his brother to eat his candy, pretending not to know his brother's eyes, but licking the candy much faster.

"There's something wrong with that candy." Seth rubbed his chin beside him, showing a smirk rarely.Da Mao, that little thing, has peed on his hands countless times, not to mention scratching and scratching, so shrewd... I want to see the excitement right now.

Within a few minutes, the two dragon cubs stopped moving, their fat tails flicked twice, and they fell asleep.

"I took them away." Russell said lightly, wrapped the dragon cubs with a thick, soft towel and stuffed them into the tool box that he carried with him, and walked outside with them.

Li Wei replied humbly, but he was reluctant and didn't say anything.He had to go to the training camp this time. If he could enter the army because of this, he would have a one-month vacation. At that time, he might be able to find a way to take his son to the north to find Abel and Jacob. It might not be in time, but this is his The only thing that can be done right now.

No matter how big and small Mao was after waking up, rolling and throwing all kinds of troubles like the sky collapsed, Li Wei still went to the landing point with other students who signed up in the early morning of Wednesday, and ten small transport ships would pick up the students from the military academy in one hour They set off for the sixth guard, where the one-year selection and training session will be held.

The transport ship is not big. A transport ship has three cabins, arranged neatly in rows.The trainees were sleeping in the narrow seats, the fast food boxes in front of them were in a mess, and there was a smell of engine oil and food in the cabin.Li Wei was not sleepy. His seat was on the far side, next to the porthole. At this moment, they were passing by a blue-purple nebula. The nebula slowly circulated, exuding an incomparably magnificent light... He leaned his head on the back of the chair Looking up, the tip of his nose seemed to smell the cold and deep breath outside the window.

The future, like this nebula, has nothing to rely on.

He thought of Abel and Jacob, and the memories of the past year suddenly seemed distant.

I don't know what else to experience...

"I am your trainer for the next school year, Captain Lincoln of the Six Side Guards." A short but rather strong dark-skinned man spoke while standing in front of the neatly lined-up trainees. His voice echoed through the loudspeaker equipment in the large shipyard In the square, the scene was silent, "My request to you is very simple, that is to survive the training."

He glanced at the students in the front row of each phalanx with a half-smile and said: "There will be assessments every week, and the last ten of each team... Get out immediately."

Nearly [-] students below let out a loud shock.Eliminate every week? !This is completely different from what they know - shouldn't the assessment be done at the end of the school year when the training camp is over? !

Li Wei stood in the front row of the square, and he and Seth, who was standing on the right side of the square, looked at each other, tacit understanding.This is probably due to the large number of applicants. Although soldiers are completely consumables for the empire that has been on foreign expeditions all year round, it does not mean that the army can enter so easily. After all, it costs a lot to train a soldier to come out. Fei's, even the most common infantry needs equipment and supplies, so this time the selection will naturally become stricter to weed out those students who can't survive the training at all, and try to be as lean as possible.

"The person who won the ranking in the last simulated battle contest, come out!" Lincoln shouted.

Only Li Wei was in the formation of the first grade, and the other were Kevin and Pompey, the fourth graders. Lincoln looked at them and saw that the three of them were all tall and heroic, so he nodded secretly satisfied: "Very good, the fourth graders The ship department is divided into two teams, and the two of you will be the captains." He looked at Li Wei and said, "There are not many first-year starship teams, so you will lead the team."

"Yes!" The three saluted neatly.

Guardian VI and the remaining six superasteroids silently guard the interstellar borders of the Empire on the outskirts of the Galevans stars. Its importance is self-evident. The border guards located on these guardian planets are drawn from the elite troops of the Empire. , replaced every three years.

This year is already the third year that Lincoln led the team to station at the Sixth Guards. When these boys from the Imperial University are trained, it will be the day when they return to the planetary fortress for handover.

"I will give you a day of free activities. The training and living supplies have been distributed to your respective dormitories. Later, the medical soldiers will inject you with subcutaneous identity verification microcards. This is how you can act on this planet without being The proof of shooting must be injected." After Lincoln finished speaking according to the regulations, he signaled a team of medical soldiers to come forward to inject the students, and his own soldiers still had training tasks.

Li Wei stood at the front, and a light-haired medical soldier squatted in front of him and opened the metal box, took out a long and strangely shaped object with a thumb, then stood up and looked up at him: "To... Inject into the artery."

"Wrist?" Li Wei pretended not to notice the blushing face of the other party, and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt to reveal his slender arms, "Is it here?"

"Well, just turn it over." The medic said almost like a whisper, but skillfully peeled off one end of the long strip with his hands, leaving only two-thirds of the thing with a green shimmering metallic luster. .This is a bit like the appearance of the U disk with the cover removed in Li Wei's previous life.The medical soldier stopped talking, and pressed the green thing hard on Li Wei's wrist. After a sharp stabbing pain, he gently moved it away. The green thing disappeared, and the long thing was still the same two-thirds. It's just that some liquid flowed out of it, and it also wet the small wound on Li Wei's wrist.

"That thing is alive!" Li Wei suddenly grabbed the injected wrist with his other hand, and his face turned completely white, because he felt something that seemed to be moving into the place where the pulse was beating. This made him extremely itchy, but he couldn't scratch the specific itch, which made him very uncomfortable.

The medical soldier didn't explain to him, but he lowered his head and went to the students who lined up at the back with the box in his hand.

"It's not alive. That thing is releasing something, similar to signal docking." Seth also walked through the crowd clutching his arms. Although he didn't win the ranking in the simulated battle competition, he was in the mechanical infantry. He is top-notch, so he was also appointed as the captain of the first team this time.

Li Wei nodded, and couldn't help but turn back to look at the medical soldier who had already walked to the back of the line.I don't know why, but he just cares about that person, and there is always an inexplicable sense of familiarity...but that's impossible, his guess is groundless...and rationally speaking, that person doesn't look like them in size.

He sighed, really thinking about those two guys like crazy... They are still separated by countless light years, even on the main star of Jialai Vance, there is an unreachable distance.

"Miss them?" Seth frowned, a little worried.

"No..." He shook his head, knowing that Seth meant Big and Little.But he is very relieved of Russell, and the most important thing now is to pass the screening, he must not be distracted, because this time the opportunity is too difficult, it is really his luck to meet it.

Li Wei was really afraid that he would use up all the luck in his life, so...he must, must pass!

As early as when he was about to log in to Guardian Six, Li Wei observed the planet from the porthole.The Guardian Six wasn't that big, so he should be able to see quite a bit of the planet as far as he could see from the sky—unexpectedly, no obvious buildings could be seen at all.He understands that this doesn't mean anything, because just considering the number of soldiers stationed here, living equipment, training places, and all offensive and defensive equipment, the absolute number of buildings is huge.

The real shock came when the trainees actually came to the living quarters, especially their dorms.All the buildings are in the hollowed-out mountains. Even though the mountains on Guardian Six are very low and bare, as if the mountains on the entire planet have been hollowed out, there is very little room to accommodate them.

The auxiliary training officers who accompanied them told them that the dormitory they lived in was originally built for the trainees who came here for training.For some unknown reason, these rooms, which are so small that they look like confinement rooms, are built in the shape of a beehive. Apart from the bed, there are only bathrooms. On one side of the light blue wall are small cabinets. Expensive compressed space is used to summarize them. various supplies and equipment.There is a crystal screen behind the door, which can be connected to the local area network, can make calls in the entire dormitory area, and has other functions.

"Li Wei, I'm in hive No. 2, A-01, Kevin and the others are on the second floor of your place." A communication sounded in the room, and it was Seth's voice inside.

"Wei! I'm in another beehive! The mecha department is here... Do you know where Ai Mi is? See you at dinner!" This was Kashi's voice.

"I'm on the side opposite you, A-77, see you at mealtime." Amelia's voice was calm.

Li Weila put on the training uniform, went to the screen behind the door and pressed a few buttons, and the three-dimensional graphics of the entire training student dormitory immediately appeared in front of him. There were several beehive-shaped buildings side by side, and each beehive had three Floor, a red icon appears on the first floor of the first beehive, which is his dormitory.He can know the location of several other people with a little inquiry.

In addition to several sets of anti-ultraviolet isolation training uniforms, standard equipment, a portable first-aid kit and a communicator were distributed to each student dormitory.He looked at the communicator, and it was obvious that it could only communicate and network within the range of Guardian Six, and its functions were very limited, and there must be a signal positioning device inside.

A few people met in the cafeteria at noon, and decided to go to the training area after eating together.

"Where are you going?" Lincoln drove a four-wheel base car and parked outside the cafeteria gate, and looked at the group of people with his sunglasses on his finger.

Kevin looked at his companions, saluted and replied, "Report sir, we want to go to the training camp."

Lincoln raised his thick eyebrows, loosened his fingers, and slid down his sunglasses to cover his eyes again: "Go, I'm just going in for dinner, and I'll give you the car." After he finished speaking, he jumped out with one hand on the car door, and patted Kevin shoulder into the cafeteria door.

Li Wei looked at the base car. The four wheels are huge, the gears are deep, and the grip is amazing. There are four positions including the driver's seat, but the rear of the car with the roof can accommodate two or three people.

"Let's go." He jumped into the car and said to Kashi, "Get up and drive."

Kashgar rolled up his sleeves and sat in the driver's seat. The rest of the people jumped into the car and sat down one after another. Then he started the car, and the rear wheels rolled up dust several meters high and drove away quickly.Their mecha department is in contact with this kind of heavy machinery every day. Even though this base car is different from what he has seen before, after a few glances, he is as proficient as if he has driven it for a long time.

Along the way, the shallow road dug around the entire base was removed, and there were base vehicles passing by, groups of base soldiers, and many technical personnel dressed in special clothes, who were surrounding some defensive offensive personnel.Sitting in the car and looking far away, you can almost see the arc of the edge of the distant planet. Looking up, you can see the very close universe separated by a thin atmosphere. The atmosphere itself is lavender, against the background of the endless black night Flowing, the blowing air is cold with a faint smell, there is almost no green vegetation as far as the eye can see, the surrounding mountains are everywhere, the Gobi is vast, and it is impossible to see birds and animals.

This is a planet completely developed and built by human beings. The biggest feeling it gives people is loneliness. Even though there are many people on this planet, when you look up at the black sky, the sense of loneliness is still very strong. .

Several young men and women sat in the car silently, each staring into the distance in a daze.When they went to the auxiliary star more than a year ago, they never expected to experience so many things. They originally thought that they could enter the military after graduation, but now they have such an opportunity in front of them. They don't know whether the future will be good or bad.
