Chapter 1 New Life
slum
Filth emerges from the foul-smelling gutters, and the morning sun brings a little breath to the place. The young man, dressed in a cadet uniform that had been washed many times, walked with heavy steps out of the dilapidated hut behind him. Jiqi hung his head, his slender hair covering his eyes, and no one could see his expression. He looked up at the bright sun and smiled bitterly.
Today is the day of Jiqi's graduation.,Since the appearance of the deep sea many years ago.,Two new professions have been derived.。 The ship girl is a powerful weapon born from the ocean.,Fight the deep sea for the safety of mankind.,And their closest person is the Admiral.。 The Admiral is like a commander on the battlefield, carrying out a series of matters such as battlefield command and scheduling, which has great requirements for the Admiral's command ability and overall situation, and he must be tested and qualified to become a Commander.
Jiqi was originally an ordinary member of the slums, living with his mother, who was suffering from his life, and this name was also given to him by his mother, hoping that he could gather the hopes of everyone and become a person who could help everyone. But he couldn't help his mother, who died of tuberculosis on a rainy night, but he couldn't do anything. Perhaps the name is a self-deceptive hoax that deceives everyone.
Perhaps in exchange for his mother's life, Jiqi was detected by the nearby corporate academy as having the potential to become a lieutenant and became a trainee admiral. The academy is full of prominent status and huge family existence. The addition of Jiqi is like an ugly duckling with a swan label appearing in the white swan flock, and the original swans are naturally unhappy, and they have suppressed and mocked the ugly ducklings to show their nobility.
Jiqi lowered his head every time, his humble background seemed to make him afraid to look at other people, in fact, it was not that he was afraid, but he just didn't want to see the contempt in the eyes of these self-proclaimed noble people. And today is the day of Jiqi's graduation, and he can finally leave here to go to a place where no one knows him and start a new life.
Maybe this is a new beginning, Ji Qi looked at the sun overhead, and meditated in his heart.

Corporate Academy
It is a historic school of admirals, and many excellent admirals have emerged, the best of which is a admiral who owns the Enterprise, who funded the establishment of the academy and named it after the enterprise aircraft carrier.
The college is magnificent, covers a huge area, has first-class teachers, has everything in the training ground, and the instructor of the ship is also very responsible. Such a good environment gave each academy an inexplicable sense of belonging, but Jiqi didn't, for him it seemed like it was just a lavishly decorated prison, where he was imprisoned and despised by many unseen eyes. They seem to be saying, you see, you see this is Jiqi, a slum inferior, just like this, he still wants to be a governor, dreaming, right? The person next to him also responded loudly, yes, yes, this kind of person should stay in the slum for the rest of his life to pick up garbage, how could he run to our school, it is simply dirty this land, and it feels like the air he has breathed has become dirty.
Every day, similar words seemed to be a spell that kept ringing in Jiqi's ears, and although it was only a whisper, it was enough to be heard. For these words that are not nutritious, Jiqi's choice is ignored, and his choice is only to ignore.
Jiqi walked to the large playground in the center of the academy, the graduation ceremony was about to begin, and each graduating admiral was like a proud rooster, holding his head high and accepting the admiration of his juniors. Hidden under the broad wings of these big roosters, Jiqi stood in the corner of the line, no one noticing.
On the stage of the ceremony was the aircraft carrier Enterprise, which had gone through countless battles, she was wearing a white navy uniform, with white hair, like a sharp witch, holding a long sword, looking at all beings, her eyes were like knives.
"Today is the day you rookies grow up to be Admiral, before this day you were not qualified to be called Admiral, and after today, you will be assigned to different town guards and become independent beings. Then you will be baptized in the flames of war and suffer in pain. In war, there will always be sacrifices. Perhaps one or more of your group will die soon. And only if you die in battle, it is called sacrifice, and deserters will only be called cowards, not worthy of being sacrificed! The business said loudly, and the firm tone was like a torrential rain, dousing the arrogance of these roosters. So, don't think that war is fun, war is a game where you don't have a chance to get up if you fall, everyone only has one chance, the deep sea is a ruthless enemy, they won't give you a second chance, it's as ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping the leaves. So, from today onwards, you have to be prepared to sacrifice at any time, and you have been here to study for so many years, and it is for this that you are prepared. The stone monument in front of the Academy's clock tower will inscribe the names of those who died for the world to remember. Speaking of this, the Enterprise paused, because the first name engraved on the stone tablet was the name of her admiral - Xu Kai. No one knew the secret, and the Enterprise had kept him in his heart.
"Now I invite the principal to the podium for the award ceremony." The company took a deep breath and said the last words of the ceremony.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Jiqi stood at the end of the line, like an outsider, watching everything happen. He raised his head slightly, and saw the angel on the stage from the countless crowded people, she seemed to be a proud lady, but that noble temperament made everything seem to be taken for granted, as if everyone should stand at her feet and worship, and bow down under her pomegranate dress.
Is this the ship's mother? Ji Qi said silently in his heart that although he was not well received in the academy, and he didn't even have a person to talk to, but for a thought in his heart, he passed every course with honor, because he still remembered what he said on the first day he walked into the academy and led the team.
"Cadets with excellent grades in the academy can get a special gift after graduating and becoming admirals, and the better the grades, the greater the help they can give to the ship's mother in battle, and the chance of winning will be higher than others. So, for a bright future, study hard, boy! ”
It was a word of encouragement that a senior admiral said at the beginning of the school, maybe he said the same thing to every class of students, and even every word did not change, or maybe he just repeated it perfunctorily. However, he was so stupid that his mother said that he would definitely gather the prayers of everyone and become a person who could help everyone, and he would work hard for it. If the senior said this, he would pass every subject with honors. He believes in a person, and he will believe everything he says, for no reason.

On the stage of the ceremony
The old headmaster took over the enterprise with the roster and walked onto the podium. The old man was dressed in a white navy uniform, holding a white military cap, with the rank of lieutenant general on his shoulders and medals on his chest.
He coughed lightly, leaving traces of time on his old face, but his upright body gave people a powerful feeling, as if he was still the veteran who dared to rush to the forefront on the battlefield. He swept the crowd with a sharp gaze, "Today is the day of your graduation, four years ago, you walked into this school and made your own contribution to the cause of peace for mankind. In four years, you will come out here with ideals and aspirations and face the storm alone. If it is an eagle, it should soar in the sky, and if it is a flying dragon, it should soar for nine days. This is what my mentor said to me most often, and I would like to give it to all of you here in the hope that you will remember it. ”
He paused, then said, "War is never a good man, from the moment you set foot on the battlefield there are destined to be sacrifices, you survived because others sacrificed, no one is an exception. When you choose the role of Admiral, please remember that you survived because the ship's mother stood in front of you in the rain of bullets, blocking everything for you, and what you can do is to use what you have learned to maximize their efforts and avoid unnecessary sacrifices. Admiral, as the commander of the battle, has the highest decision-making power, and of course rights come obligations, so think twice before you make decisions! Don't let your wrong decisions cost innocent lives. ”
He pointed vigorously to the medal on his chest, "Behind every battle victory there is always someone to pay, and behind every medal there is always someone to shed blood." So remember to warn, gentlemen! ”
The old man took a deep breath, "Next, please come to the stage of the academy whose name is pronounced and carry out the construction ceremony." ”
"Gather prayers, pass the shooting subject with full marks, pass the military theory subject with full score, pass the cooking subject with full score, and pass the tactical strategy subject with full score. Jiqi students are the only two students in many years to pass the graduation exam with perfect scores. The old man looked down at the roster in his hand and smiled with satisfaction, "Since the Jiqi Cadet ranks first in the score, according to tradition, he is the first captain to come up and build it." Therefore, please gather prayers to come to the stage and start the construction ceremony. ”
The old man's words were like a switch turned on, and all the graduating students turned backwards in unison, looking at the assembly standing at the end of the procession, like a minister looking at the king on the high platform. In fact, everyone knows Jiqi and knows that he is an admiral from the slums, just like knowing a beggar who wanders around the academy all day, you know his existence but you don't come up to him to have any conversation. However, no one would have imagined that an existence that they once regarded as an ant would hide such a powerful power and pass all the subjects with perfect marks, what kind of perseverance would support him.
Perhaps only he knows.

It was as if it was a ray of light that illuminated this dark world. Jiqi never imagined that he would be so noticed as he is now, as if he was the center of this world. He raised his head slightly, looking at the old man's kind smile, and all the eyes that were looking at him. He sensed that it seemed to be a shining stage, the spotlight was on him, and now it was his turn.
If you don't fly, it's just a skyrocket. If you don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster. Ji Qi is like the king of Chuzhuang back then, reborn from the fire. Everyone's eyes were like a cannon salute, set off for the birth of the king.
In the sound of the salute, Ji Qi walked to the royal platform step by step, and the whole world was taken into his arms. At this moment, it is like a new life.
