Chapter Twenty-Three: Decision
After listening to Luo Yingde's words quietly, Ai Jie lowered his head and fell into deep thought. The huge amount of information contained in Luo Yingde's words requires him to take time to digest it.
I can't imagine that the federal government is so restrictive in terms of intelligence control. It wasn't until the information that Luo Yingde just said that Ai Jay knew how difficult the current situation of humanity was. In the past, Ai Jie knew that the human race in the Natural Disaster Battle was very difficult and suffered great losses, but he didn't expect that the losses and crises of the human race in the Natural Disaster Battle were almost to the level of genocide.
Although Luo Yingde did not say it explicitly, combined with the information obtained by the Military University, Ai Jie also guessed that the two major lines of defense are actually not as easy to deal with monsters as reported by the media, and the fact that the monsters were killed to the Jupiter base this time also shows the seriousness and urgency of the situation.
Looking at his hand, Ai Jie, who had experienced the power of the Giant of Light, now deeply understood himself and what the Giant of Light meant to the Federation.
What it means to gain the power of the Giant of Light on his own, and how to use it, Ai Ge has no concrete concept or idea yet.
But as a member of the human race, Aijay will not back down, and he will take his responsibility.
As the supreme commander of the Jupiter base, General Luo Yingde would spend so much time talking to Ai Jie, how could Ai Jie not guess what he really meant?
After graduating from the Third Military University and joining the army, Ai Jie came to fight monsters from the beginning, and this idea has not changed to this day. To find out and realize his own value in the army was a decision he made very early on.
The difference between him now and the past is only that he has a force to be reckoned with, nothing more. Now he is fundamentally a soldier.
With a determination in his heart, Ai Jie slowly raised his head, stared at Luo Yingde's eyes with blazing eyes, and said sentence by sentence: "General Luo, what do I need to do?" ”
After the long-awaited answer, a smile appeared on the corner of Luo Yingde's mouth: "I knew you would answer like this, I am really glad that it is a person like you who has obtained the power of light." ”
Luo Yingde motioned to Nishizawa, the deputy beside him, and Nishizawa understood, she walked up to Ai Jie, and handed Ai Jie a stack of documents and a military badge.
Silently taking the military badge and paperwork, Ai Jie was full of surprise: "This is ......"
As a soldier, how can he not understand that this is clearly a document for military promotion!
Without waiting for Ai Jie to digest this unexpected joy, Luo Yingde immediately said: "Warrant Officer Ai Jie, no, it should be said that Ai Jie is a second lieutenant now." ”
In an instant, Luo Yingde's attitude changed 360°, and he suddenly changed from an approachable Mr. Yes to a cold Supreme Commander. The businesslike expression made the atmosphere in the office immediately serious.
"I, Luo Yingde, with the authority of the supreme commander of the Jupiter base, have appointed Second Lieutenant Aijie as the current leader of the SHC Special Operations Team."
Promotions plus promotions are not insignificant for Ai Jie, who has just become a regular soldier for a short time. With only two months from warrant officer to second lieutenant, plus becoming the leader of the special operations team, this matter may cause a commotion if the outside public knows about it.
From a team member to a team leader, this span made Ai Jie a little worried. For the elite of the SHC Einsatzgruppen from all directions, will he be able to lead them well?
Although Ai Jie has confidence in himself, the members of the Einsatzgruppen are all students who have just graduated from the military university like Ai Jie and Shi Peter, and everyone is quite arrogant, and it may be difficult for Ai Jie, who is about the same age, to manage them.
Luo Yingde saw Ai Jie's concern, and he said lightly: "From now on, the SHC Special Operations Team will be a team dedicated to assisting you as a Giant of Light, everything in the team is centered on you, you don't need to care, besides, the SHC Special Operations Team is basically wiped out, and you don't have to worry about not being able to control the people below before the new members are added." ”
Ai Jie keenly grasped the key to Luo Yingde's words, he ran to Luo Yingde, clapped his hands on the desk, and said anxiously: "The team is all wiped out?!" What do you mean? ”
"Literally." Luo Yingde was not angry at Aijie's rudeness, and he motioned for Nishizawa to explain further to Aijie.
Nishizawa brushed the hair between his foreheads, and said in a cold tone: "In the monster invasion battle a week ago, the SHC special task force was completely wiped out by the monster Ariguera due to its failure against the elite-level Ariguera. Nishizawa's words didn't fluctuate in any way, as if the person in her words was just a bunch of numbers, not a living life.
Faced with the sudden bad news, Ai Jie couldn't control his emotions, and he said in an anxious tone: "Fighting monsters? I am also a member of the SHC Special Forces, why didn't I receive this news at the time......"
Nishizawa interrupted Ai Jie's words: "No, you also received it, but you were already fighting a monster at the time, and there was no way to check the communicator, if you check your communicator records, you should find that there was a special order from the base at that point in time." ”
"No one could have imagined that among the monsters that appeared at that time there was an elite-level monster that far surpassed its peers, and the strength of the monster that we all misjudged caused the tragedy of the old SHC Special Forces."
Ai Jie lowered his head silently, as a soldier, sooner or later he would die on the battlefield, and he was mentally prepared for this kind of thing. But the bad news of death suddenly came from his companions who were eating and fighting together not long ago, and he didn't know it, which made him a little unacceptable in his heart.
Thinking that the small Shi Peter was so separated from yin and yang, Ai Jie was a little in a trance, but in the face of this reality......
"But just now the general also said that it was basically wiped out, in fact, there were still 5 team members who survived that battle, although they were very disabled, but at least they saved their lives."
"One of them was lucky, he was seriously injured, but it was still treatable. He has also been in the army for a week, and he should be about to come out. ”
Aijie had a vague premonition, his eyes widening, nervously waiting for Nishizawa's next words.
"That person, you should be familiar with as well, is your companion who graduated from the Third Military University with you, Warrant Officer Peter."
At this moment, Ai Jay didn't know what kind of expression to show. As for Ai Jie's most important in the Jupiter base, it is none other than Ichinoe Fengxiang and Shi Peter, one is a woman with whom he has a love-hate entanglement, and the other is a close friend with him for many years. The two men held a pivotal position in Aijay's short twenty-two years of life.
The other members of the SHC Special Operations Team died, and although Ai Jie was also sad, it was more of a sad feeling of the rabbit and the fox. After all, he had only been a member of the Einsatzgruppen for two months, and he was all in training, and he was not familiar with the other members of the squad.
I thought that my best friend who had been separated by yin and yang was still alive, and the mixture of joy and sorrow made Aijie's expression look weird.
"Where is Peter, I want to meet him."
Luo Yingde and Nishizawa looked at each other, and Luo Yingde nodded: "Anyway, the new members of the SHC Special Operations Team have not been added yet, and the main things have been talked about almost later, and the specific details will be discussed later." ”
After receiving Luo Yingde's affirmation, Nishizawa took out his laptop computer and began to investigate Luo Yingde's location: "He just finished his final treatment today, you go to the D3 area, which is the medical area of the base, and he should be going through the discharge procedures." ”
Worried about his best friend, Edjay had no intention of continuing to talk to Luo Yingde and Nishizawa, and he gave a military salute to the two of them and hurried in the direction of the D3 medical area.
