Chapter 580: The Exam Begins
Seeing Xu Tian's resolute attitude, Pol didn't say anything more, and the three of them went back to rest, recuperate, and prepare for the exam three days later.
These three days are three days of anxiety and anticipation, and all the students, including Xu Tian, are waiting for this momentous moment.
The time finally came, Xu Tian, Pol, Concubine Mer, Xi Fuer, and two other students came to the principal's office, Principal Christ said in a deep voice: "I am very disappointed by this year's freshmen, there were thirteen people last year, but I didn't expect that there will only be six of you left this year!"
"Don't say anything superfluous, tell us what the exam is about. Cherche said, as if he was already eager to try.
The principal smiled and said, "As you know, our school not only trains mercenary cadets, but also accepts various mercenary commissions, and this exam is a commissioned mission, and it is a military mission. ”
Next, the principal gave a detailed introduction to the entire mission process and background, on this planet, there are two countries, the Republic of Garbazia in the northern hemisphere, and the Empire of Dol in the southern hemisphere, and now Garbazia has launched an attack on Dor, and the war between the two countries
It's been going on for five years.
Just recently, Garbadia captured the capital of Dore, forcing the Emperor of Dor to move the capital, and after Galbajia occupied the capital of Dore, he built a conning tower there, and the layout of the war of that generation was commanded by this conning tower.
The Dole Empire has contacted the Uramu Academy to hire mercenaries from the academy to destroy the conning tower, and Headmaster Crist has accepted the commission and decided to make the operation part of his graduation exam.
The principal said: "Next, I will arrange the tasks and groups, among the six of you, only Xu Tian and Xi Fuer have reached the fourth level, so this operation is divided into two groups, Xu Tian is the leader of the first group, and Xi Fuer is the leader of the second group. One group attacked from the left side of the conning tower, and the second group from
Attack on the right, whichever group succeeds in destroying the conning tower, you will get a full score in the exam, even if you fail to complete the task, as long as you come back alive, you will be given a corresponding score according to your performance, as long as you get 60 points, you can pass the graduation exam. ”
The headmaster took out a strange piece of grass from his bosom, lit it with a fire, and put it in his mouth to suck on, which was somewhat similar to a cigarette, but it was very expensive, and not something that ordinary people could afford.
He spat out a smoke ring and continued: "I will send twelve mercenaries to follow you, but they will not help you complete the mission, they will only continue to complete the mission after you are all killed, so we will definitely complete the mission entrusted this time, but don't."
Count on any rescue you will get. Okay, you still have five minutes to think about it, if you want to give up, take advantage of it now, if you still have to take the exam, in five minutes, we'll go. ”
After saying that, the principal walked out, leaving only six students who were ready to take the exam, they still need to think about it, because the principal has already explained the task, and the students can also hear that this mission is quite dangerous, and if you don't get it right, you will die, and it is necessary to think about it again.
Xi Fuer said: "Xu Tian and Pol, although we have enmity, but after all, we are also from the same village, this time I am not against you, but sincerely advise you, it is better to give up." With that, he turned and walked out.
Pol said: "This kid persuaded us to give up, but he himself wanted to participate, isn't it clear that he looks down on us." No matter what he thinks, I must go. With that, he also walked out.
Concubine Maier straightened her short azure hair, sighed, and said, "I have no choice, so I have to go." Handsome guy Xu Tian, I know you won't give up, let's go together. ”
Xu Tian smiled, patted Concubine Maier on the shoulder, and the two walked out of the principal's office together, and the remaining two people thought about it for a long time, and finally chose to take the exam, and all six students came to the school gate.
The Headmaster had prepared a vehicle for them, and it looked like a giant stationery box, which the Headmaster called the Skyship, and they were going to take it to the capital of Dole.
On the flying boat, twelve mercenaries were already waiting on it, and among the twelve, Lastis was also among them, smiling at several people.
Xu Tian asked, "Aren't you an instructor, and you haven't heard the principal say that the instructor will follow us too?"
Before Lastis could answer, a man next to him spoke first: "Don't underestimate Teacher Lastis, she is the best mercenary we have here, and of course she has to participate in such an important mission!"
Xi Fuer pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice: "Looking at her age, when my sister is just right, I don't believe how powerful she can be." ”
His voice was so small that none of the other mercenaries could hear it, otherwise, I am afraid that he would be flattened before the mission began.
After a three-hour flight, the airship finally landed, and everyone stepped out of the huge stationery box, thinking that they could see a bustling city, but what they saw was an endless ruin.
The capital of Dole is one of the most prosperous cities in the world, but it was destroyed by the war like this, and everyone was embarrassed to see this scene.
Rustis pointed to a tall tower in the distance and said, "That's the enemy's control tower, and that's your target, but there must be heavy guards along the way, so be careful." ”
As he spoke, Rastith looked at the watch on his wrist: "You have three hours, and after three hours, if you haven't completed the mission, whether you live or die, it will be judged as a failure, okay, you can go." ”
According to the pre-regulations, Xu Tian, Pol, and Mai Concubine as the first group marched towards the left side of the conning tower, and Xi Fuer took the other two as the second group to the right of the conning tower, and Lastis and other twelve mercenaries stayed in place and waited for news.
Xu Tian and the three of them used the ruins as a cover and touched towards the conning tower, although the city had been destroyed, but there were many Garbazia soldiers inside, patrolling everywhere, sentry posts everywhere, it was very difficult for Xu Tian and the three of them to advance.
If it weren't for the fact that there were ruins everywhere that could be used as cover, the three of them would not have been able to move forward at all, and it would have been impossible to reach the conning tower in three hours.
The three of them hid behind a collapsed building, and Pol whispered: "It won't work at all like this, even if we don't find out, it will take at least ten hours to touch it, what should we do?"
Concubine Maier said: "Those professional mercenaries must have a way, let's think about it, if this is an impossible task, the school will not send us." ”
