Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 61 02.0061: ‘Problem Group’

“Archie?” Horatio called.

The young man who was putting things under the bed was stunned for a moment, then looked behind him.

“Horatio?! I didn’t expect my roommate to be you. These are your daily necessities. I put them in front of the door before. I brought them in.”

“Thank you.”

“Hurry up, there are 11 minutes left to assemble and report.”

The chief officer of the Navy Loyalty Department looked at his watch. Next to him sat Commodore Edward Peru, and to the left was Major General Alexander Hood. The old admiral sat in the middle C position, and to the right was the famous Admiral Rodney, and to the right was Lieutenant General Samuel Hood.

It is not always possible to gather the lineup of several ace bosses of the Gothic Fleet to attend this entrance ceremony. This rare scene can only appear when the entrance ceremony is held and the bosses are free.

Horatio's enrollment time was just in time for the last batch of students of the 3810th class, when the 3806th class was promoted from the Zhongsi Training School.

Due to the nature of Zhongsi College, casualties always exist, and students of the same class often lose students, so there are cases of supplementary enrollment of older preparatory students or Zhongsi students.

Those Zhongsi students who entered the school not long before Horatio will also attend the ceremony here with him.

Horatio and Archie rushed to the venue. There were 3 minutes left before the ceremony began. The new students would line up in front of the old students of the same class.

The two quickly found a place to stand. Horatio found that the person standing opposite him was a female sergeant named Louise who had met him once in the Vegas area. The two stood face to face, and her face was still as serious as ice.

"Today is the last batch of students to be recruited for the 3810th class. In the past, we have lost many students, and you have also lost many classmates. But sacrificing for the Emperor is the honor of each of us. What is His best reward?!"

"Loyalty! Loyalty!" The deafening shouts rose and fell over the school field like a tsunami, setting off a magnificent wave of air.

[Loyalty is the best reward.] Horatio remembered this famous quote from Warhammer.

"May their souls return to the Golden Throne. Freshmen, we are His navy. From today on, you will serve the Emperor and the Imperial Navy. Stay vigilant at all times and don't relax. Any relaxation may lead to meaningless sacrifices!" Admiral Anson's voice was old but very loud.

"Now, answer me, what is the best reward from the Emperor?"

"Loyalty! Loyalty!"

Except for Horatio's louder voice, the freshmen's untrained voices were completely incomparable to the voices of their predecessors.

"You want to be an officer of the Imperial Navy with such a low voice? With such a low voice, your subordinates can't hear what you are shouting when the cannon fires!" Major General Alexander Hood reprimanded without mercy.

Under the merciless scolding of the Imperial hero, facing the contemptuous gazes of rows of seniors, many freshmen's faces were red with shame to their earlobes.

"Do it again!"

"Loyalty! Sincerity!" The freshmen, who were ashamed and angry, shouted at the top of their lungs again, and their momentum could barely be called magnificent.

"Humph, this is still a bit of a show." Vice Admiral Samuel Hood snorted coldly.

"Imagine, the enemy of the Empire's torpedoes are close at hand, and your shouting can't make the sailors next to the noisy engine hear your orders clearly, what will happen?!" Commodore Edward Peru said loudly in a loud voice.

"Remember, if you want to be a naval officer, your voice must be loud enough and resonant enough! On a warship that is more than ten kilometers long, your voice will determine the transmission of orders! And the transmission of orders will determine the survival of a warship! The survival of a warship will determine the victory or defeat of the fleet! The victory or defeat of the fleet will determine the fate of dozens of worlds behind you!"

Major General Alexander Hood said in a shocking voice, and his voice was as loud as the first round of roars of the recruits.

"Now, the new students of the 3810th class, please introduce yourself, where you received education, your name, your school record, your family's naval origins, any honors, starting from the first one on the left!"

"David Betty von Ravensburg, the first grammar school in the capital of Gothic, is now a student of Zhongsi. His ancestors were the commander-in-chief of the Gothic fleet in the Gothic star sector of the Imperial Navy. He was promoted to Lord Admiral. He united the Gothic star sector, commanded the Gothic fleet, won the Gothic War, and thwarted Abaddon's conspiracy. My father, a brigadier general, died in the line of duty at the Eye of Terror."

The second son of the Ravensburg family wore a luxurious military uniform, his eyebrows were dancing, his tone became higher and higher, and the content was full of boasting.

The students of the 3816th class exchanged glances in surprise.

Even though David Betty was dressed in a jeweled dress and had a proud and arrogant tone, which was completely the style of a dandy, the leaders on the surface couldn't help but give him face.

"May his soul rest on the golden throne. Next."

The students introduced themselves one by one, with the loyal students and preparatory students roughly evenly split.

Horatio glanced to the left, and the voice surged, getting closer and closer to him.

"The First Grammar School in the Gothic Capital, Archie Cuthbert Collingwood, is currently a publicly funded preparatory student at the Officer Preparatory University. Before his grandfather passed away, he was a rear admiral in the navy. He served as the tribune of the PW-P-15 giant starport cargo for a long time. His father was a captain in the navy and died in the boarding battle against the traitors last year."

His self-introduction caused another round of sidelong glances among the students.

[It turned out to be a declining naval family. No wonder he went to the same school as the second son of the Ravensburger family, and the family situation was so complicated. ] Horatio glanced at the young man beside him.

"Well, we all know your grandfather, and I know your father too. They are good soldiers who fulfill their duties. Now your mother is the only one left in the family, right? I remember she is not in good health." Brigadier General Edward Peru looked sad. asked.

"Yes, sir."

"Perform your duties well, trainee sergeant. It's up to you to revive the Collingwood family. The navy will help you if you encounter any difficulties."

"Thank you, sir." Although Archie agreed, he pursed his lips and looked embarrassed.

Horatio glanced at him and saw that he, like himself, was one of those who did not want to eat food that came to him.

Begging for help was also disrespectful to the dignity of a naval family. Although he didn't want to ask, his mother had been sick all year round, and her health was particularly bad after his father died in the war.

The family has supported too many families of non-commissioned officers and sailors who died under the hands of my grandfather and father.

Except for an old house in Shangchao, almost all unnecessary things have been sold. It can even be called a "family house with four walls". It can't even get the benefit of a candidate for an official position. In order to revitalize the family, it chooses to serve and become a preparatory school at public expense. born.

"Next one!"

"Abyss Harbor Social Middle School, Horatio Cochrane!" Horatio shouted out seriously and solemnly.

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent for a while.

It wasn't until Lieutenant General Samuel Hood burst out laughing on the stage that the students below also burst into laughter.

Louise, who was the first in line, always looked at Horatio seriously and did not laugh with the others.

"What an interesting young man." The lieutenant general used a handkerchief to wipe the tears from laughter at the corners of his eyes.

"Brother, he..." Major General Alexander Hood was about to remind his brother when Horatio spoke next.

"My father is the chief lord captain. He has more than 2,000 sinkings and the third lord colonel's total record! His ancestor is Admiral Speyer, the legendary hero of the Empire, the terminator of the 12th Black Crusade, Warmaster Abaddon The victor, the commander of the Gothic main fleet."

The laughter stopped almost instantly, and the entire audience fell into an eerie silence.

"Ahem. It turns out he is Thomas Corcoran's son. You should have told me earlier, brother." Lieutenant General Samuel Hood straightened his scarf, sat upright, pursed his lips, cleared his throat, and said nothing. Make another sound.

The little kids from the class of 3816 who had just graduated from the Chung Si Educational School all looked at Horatio with bright eyes.

What kind of coincidence was it that the heirs of two legends, Ravensberg and Speyer, were standing in front of them at the same time and enrolling together.

"Hey, what are you pretending to be? You are a subordinate's child."

David Betty, the second son of the Ravensburger family, leaned forward and glanced at Horatio unhappily. ╰(艹艹)

When I said it, I never shocked others so much. All the limelight was suddenly stolen by this kid who appeared out of nowhere.

"Now, the team leaders of the 3810th class will select the team members, preparatory students to preparatory students, and loyal heirs to loyal heirs. Starting from David Betty!"

Not surprisingly, David Betty was instantly accepted into a loyal heir group composed entirely of students from aristocratic families, and Archie entered the preparatory group.

The selection process was very fast, and new students came out one by one, returned to the team, and integrated into the 3810 class of students.

"Horatio Cochrane!"

This is a very awkward position. Most of the teams are already full or have a fixed tacit understanding. As Horatio is a new blood from the lower nest, most of the loyal heir leaders cannot guarantee that they can work with him in a short time. Reaching a tacit understanding - this could be fatal depending on the level of risk of the mission for the Tadashi cadets.

More than ten seconds passed, and no one came forward, so the atmosphere became a little subtle.

Sergeant Louise glanced at the other team leaders, and after confirming that no one was planning to speak, stepped forward.

Horatio's purple eyes met hers, and they saluted each other.

"Is it appropriate for him to join the 'problem team'? Do you want to change his team?" The chief officer of the Naval Loyalty Division turned his head and asked Commodore Edward Peru.

"What's the question?" Brigadier General Edward asked with a half-face.

"Sergeant Louise was already relatively old when she entered the 3810th class, and now she is 19 years old. She should have reached the officer candidate stage, and she must be a sergeant major again.

But because he failed the Huihui exam, his points were deducted and he took the make-up exam, so he is still a sergeant. She is excellent in other aspects, but her grades are not good, especially in mathematics. She will definitely become the armed commander of a gang. The same goes for the two team members. Although Leidos barely passed every subject, he was a troublemaker, and Fidio had good grades, but his fighting grades were poor. Joining this kind of group is probably not suitable for newcomers. "

"Is this Louise the daughter of those two Cadian biologists? She moved to Cadia with the anti-venom reagent discovered from the Eye of Terror. As a result, a plague occurred on the passenger ship halfway and turned into a plague ship. Everyone became zombies, and she was the only survivor.”

"Yes, that's her, Louise Tavira. Her parents gave her the only shot of the vaccine. Although it was indeed effective, her physique seemed to have become strange. Installing mechanical parts on her body would cause the machine to malfunction. The soul becomes irritable and malfunctions.

Even if you become an officer, it will be troublesome to install a command hub in the future. It's a pity that the samples and research reports of the reagent were destroyed, otherwise the Joint Pharmaceutical Guild of the Navy might be able to improve a mature version without side effects.

Therefore, whether to change Horatio's team, this team may become an obstacle for him to become an alternate. "

Brigadier General Edward pondered.

"No need, such a unique group is great."
