After returning from the joint training, the association finally relented, and through the mouth of the instructor Qiao Busi, he said the word "baptism". As soon as he heard these two words, Chen Bin's ears immediately stood up.

Qiao Busi said: "This is the last time, I will speak to you as an instructor, and when we meet in the future, I will be colleagues and comrades-in-arms with you." But before you can do so, there is one more test you must pass: baptism. ”

Almost everyone's eyes widened in confusion, which was a new word for the vast majority of students.

"Some of you have already touched the threshold – the threshold of stepping into another realm, and you may wonder why you can't go further after ten years of intense training," Jo said. Now I can tell you that the only way to cross this threshold is through baptism. ”

This was probably said to He Junyao, Chen Bin thought to himself, he should have discussed this issue with the instructor in private. He looked at where He Junyao was standing, but he could only see his back, and he didn't know what he was thinking at this time.

Qiao Busi quickly said: "But this does not mean that the training is meaningless, any effort is meaningful, and when you pass the baptism, you will find that some people suddenly become much stronger, don't be too surprised, this is the effect of accumulation." The physical performance may not be obvious, but the baptism will magnify this small gap that accumulates over time, Captain Zuo back then, as soon as the baptism passed, it was a first-level combat power, which was very rare in the history of the association. ”

Zuo Ya is obviously the god of the Dongfang III, and all the crew members worship him avidly, and Jo Busi has mentioned the old past of Captain Zuo more than once to motivate the recruits. This is indeed a very effective method, after all, most of the recruits who chose the Dongfang 3 came for Captain Zuo.

Qiao Busi continued: "According to the ranking of the unified inspection, odd and even number detachment, the odd number stands on my left hand, and the even number stands on my right hand, two minutes!"

Two minutes later, the phalanx split in two and stood on either side of Jobusi.

"The baptism is a week later, you need to go to sea, take the Xinghai 5 in the odd number, take the Xinghai 6 in the odd number, and I will take you to the port in a while, the captain of the Xinghai has other instructions. Do you have any questions?"

It was probably the last time he spoke, or maybe he knew that a considerable part of the recruits would never return, and Qiao Busi was unexpectedly good-tempered today.

Hands were raised.

"What is the problem?" asked Joe.

"What is baptism?"

Chen Bin glanced at the back of the rising figure, thinking that this guy usually doesn't have five or six, but he hit the nail on the head at a critical time. This is exactly what Chen Bin wants to ask.

Qiao Busi didn't answer positively, but just said: "Baptism is baptism, you just need to know that this is a test that all recruits need to go through, and without baptism, they will not become combative." ”

Chen Bin sneered in his heart, and said in his heart, Do you dare to tell everyone about the mortality rate of baptism?

Jiejiegao seemed to have a heart with Chen Bin, Chen Bin was thinking in his heart, and he immediately asked: "Will you die?"

Jo Busi was silent for two seconds.

"Baptism itself is not threatening, but going to sea is always risky, isn't it?"

Chen Bin savored it carefully, the six words "not threatening" are really exquisite, but in fact, he is still evading the problem, if it does not cause death, just say that it is safe?

Another student asked, "Do you want to go out of the safe sea?"

"Yes, but not too far. As the crew of the Dongfang-3, you should be ready to go to sea at any time, is there a big difference between you near and far sea?"

The student stopped talking.

"If that's all right, turn backwards!"

Not only the Vostok 3, but all five Vostok recruits were sent to the association's exclusive port in odd and even queues. In front of them were two mighty steel behemoths, Xinghai 5 and Xinghai 6.

The Xinghai and the Qianlong belong to the same series, they are the secondary ships of the association, and the captains are both served by the top combat power of the sea generals list, at this time, the captain of the Star Sea 5, Meng Dashan, who ranks eighth on the sea general list, walked towards the singular phalanx.

Meng Dashan is as his name suggests, as burly as a hill, he is at least 2 meters tall, and the group of recruits who sailed away are already outrageously tall, with an average height of almost 190, but in front of Meng Dashan, he is still like a little chicken, as for Chen Bin, he is a quail at most.

Together with the instructors, Meng Dashan brought the singular recruits onto the ship.

"Take you on the ship, not for you to visit, don't stick your head out and look around, keep me disciplined!"

Captain Meng also has a big temper, and he has no tolerance for individual unruly recruits, and he will start training as soon as he is discovered. After training twice, everyone is honest.

Chen Bin is actually quite curious. He was also on the secondary ship for the second time, the first time was the Qianlong during joint training, but he only walked around the deck at that time, and this time he was taken directly into the cabin.

He actually wanted to go to the cockpit to see, after all, the driving knowledge he learned during the cadet period had never been practiced, although he had practiced several times on the ship, it was all under the leadership and guidance of the predecessors of HNA, and it was only a ship operating in the near sea. The internal structure of a real ocean-going giant ship is probably very different.

The association does not have high requirements for the driving level of combat soldiers, which is understandable, 700 recruits every year, after baptism and then distributed to five ships, an average of less than 100 people per ship, such a precious combat power, to throw it as a helmsman or ordinary sailor is too tyrannical.

Therefore, most of the work of operating this iron lump is the responsibility of the soldiers of the HNA, and the combat soldiers do not have to get started in person, they only need to understand the principles and procedures, and have the ability to take the helm when necessary.

Having said that, Chen Bin still wants to be perfect, of course he doesn't want to have problems, but in case of an accident, he doesn't want to die in vain because of insufficient preparation, after all, these jobs can be done in advance.

Meng Dashan obviously couldn't understand the fear of death of a recruit, he led everyone straight to the crew living quarters, he was almost hunched, and most of the recruits lowered their heads. The interior of the cabin is so low that if the tall men raise their proud heads, they will come into close contact with the roof of the cabin.

Only Chen Bin is like a fish in water, as if this is the residence of the hobbits.

Meng Dashan pushed open the door of cabin No. 1 and said, "The top four, live in this room!" and then pushed open the door of cabin No. 2: "Fifth to eighth, live in this room, and so on!" You are not fools, you can count which number you live in, you can't find the cabin on the ship next week, I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"

The fish in the mouth of the sailing soldier refers to the sea monster. It's not terrible to feed the fish, even if there is a group of saber-toothed sharks, Chen Bin can clean them up with one hand, but the sea monster, he remembered the terrifying appearance of the Soul Snatcher Eight Claws, and he couldn't help but shudder. If you really touch that thing, all the recruits here are afraid that it won't be enough to stuff its teeth.

Chen Bin took the opportunity to look into the cabin, the layout is similar to that of ordinary ships, in the narrow space, there are two bunk beds on the opposite side, a cabin of four people, an average of less than 1 square meter of space per person, this condition is much more humble than the most humble university dormitory.

Meng Dashan said: "At eight o'clock next Monday morning, gather in front of the port on time!"

At this time, Chen Bin suddenly raised his hand.

"What's the problem?"

"Do I need to bring gear?"

"Voluntary, not required. Meng Dashan paused, "But I can tell you clearly, it's useless, it's just a waste of points." ”
