Chapter 544: Covenant Review (Part II)
Liang Lu's confusion is normal, because work such as on-site review is not within the scope of the duties of the school officer.
Sheng Zhan is the head of the Second Hive, and he is also the de facto head of the logistics department of the relay station, but his scope of reference is mainly in the maintenance of infrastructure and equipment, as well as the wartime production, assembly and maintenance of high-precision equipment such as movements.
For example, a super professional business like poison treatment, even if it happens in his jurisdiction, there will be a professional department to deal with it.
He should not overstep his authority in directing the relevant work.
However, after Liang Lu's initial surprise, he couldn't take into account the deeper truth. Receiving the instruction that the promoted school officer should come to review in person, he was more uncalm, or from professional pressure.
"Hurry up, hurry up, sort out the work record again, especially be concise, focused, and clear, and don't waste his time."
Ronan was a little confused.
Liang Lu explained very seriously: The promotion of the school official is a well-known busy man at the relay station, and the consequences of wasting his time...... See his fist the size of his head?
Well, Ronan had also heard that the professionalism of the promoted officer was on the same level as his temper.
It was under the deterrence of the iron fist that although Liang Lu gave the order, it was he who finally did the streamlining work, and the above words were more like he was cheering himself up.
Ronan was idle all the way, but in fact, it was a hundred seconds. The high-speed special maintenance vehicles have returned to the location where they were stationed.
There are more people here than before leaving.
The professional who had been in charge of identifying them had now become receptionists, pointing out the real coordinates of the incident to the newcomers.
However, there was no promotion to the rank of school officer.
The arrival of special maintenance vehicles has attracted people to look this way. Ronan's eyes were sharp, and he saw that one of the people in the group was about to be familiar with Liang Lu, and smiled at this side.
The car stopped, Liang Lu kept his head down and competed with the work record, until Ronan poked him and woke up, and he also raised his eyes to see the old acquaintance in the crowd, a little surprised, jumped out of the car as soon as possible, and greeted the one:
"Senior, why are you here?"
Ronan still practiced the military posture of an excellent recruit, and almost got off the bus at the same time, standing straight on the side.
The one who was still smiling, although he couldn't see the workspace on the virtual interface, commented on Liang Lu's previous work very accurately: "It came quite quickly, but I still remember that the promotion officer hates meaningless perfection formalism the most." ”
Liang Lu rolled his eyes and elongated his voice: "So I'll get out of the car now and have a meaningful chat with the senior!" ”
Obviously, the relationship between them is quite good.
Liang Lu did not forget the first soldier he brought in his life, and turned his head to mention Ronan: "Come, I have seen the assault knife of our base, the hero of the Imperial Battle, my senior, Captain Lu Ande." ”
On the other side, Luande duly added: "Collective." ”
Ronan understood what he meant, referring to the fact that the "Imperial Battle Hero" was a collective honor, and there was a difference between individual merit.
The honor was lowered by one notch, but the other party's modest personality naturally made people feel good, and Ronan stood upright:
"Hello Captain."
Liang Lu also specially introduced Captain Lu Ande, imitating the tone of a senior veteran: "Ronan, my soldier, the seed elite of the hundred-year sequence, the stick guy who can control the cutting structure at 2/1000!" ”
There was an evaluation that he thought was more appropriate, and he was forcibly swallowed back: a partial monster who sacrificed common sense!
Luander laughed again: "Say it as if you could have done it a long time ago." ”
Liang Lu was exposed at once, and his fair face was a little red, but he had already completed his psychological construction on the way, and he was not angry.
Ronan was a little embarrassed, but soon Leander returned the salute to him: "Hello, private. ”
Lu Ande is a middle-aged man with a normal body shape compared to Ronan's cognition, well, in fact, Ronan doesn't know much about the average life expectancy and age segment of the citizens of the Heavenly Abyss Empire, he just feels that this Lu Lieutenant has a sense of vicissitudes.
In fact, the first impression is more blunt and direct, because it can be seen that there is an obvious thick scar on Lu Ande's neck, extending from the collar of the military uniform, extending from the left side of the neck to the root of the ear on the same side, and then radiating to the back of the head.
The overall appearance of the scar is grayish-white, as if it was an old wound. Ronan could perceive a rather dense distribution of metal under the scar, and at least more than one-third of the structure of the man's chest and skull was an artificial creation implanted, both visually and perceptually, somewhat hideous.
However, this Lieutenant Lu loves to laugh very much, no matter whether he speaks or not, the corners of his mouth are always upturned, and there are some fine lines at the corners of his eyes, which are highly consistent with his smile. It is this habit of expression that counteracts the visual impact of his appearance, and it is natural for people to feel that he is a kind and friendly person. It's just that the original harmonious physical and mental structure has been partially destroyed by external injuries.
Ronan thinks that this is a predecessor with a story.
What's more, Ronan also saw that the captain's pitch-black uniform had an unconventional and striking silver armband: it was a spiral line representing the ladder, and a more abstract three-ring nested logo in the middle.
Liang Lu once told Ronan about similar knowledge points: This is on behalf of the armband holder, although he has not fully reached the superior realm of being able to lead the army and be knighted and promoted to the throne, but he has innovated in a certain field, bravely climbed the ladder, and made a breakthrough to get this honor.
The nesting of the three rings refers to the key three steps of "furnace, cloth, and internal refining" after the basic internal cultivation is completed, and there are also called "natal furnaces", which are the most critical stages to break the inherent logic of racial gene inheritance and break free from the innate shackles.
That's pretty powerful.
When Ronan secretly commented on the characters, Liang Lu also exchanged information with Lu Ande: "Senior, are you cutting-edge macho men here to steal credit?" ”
"Obey orders and assist in the investigation."
Except for the open scars, Lu Ande can't see a little edge and corner up and down, inside and out, even if he is serious, he doesn't have too much of a businesslike taste.
This kind of appearance is really not very compatible with the title of "assault knife".
Liang Lu didn't react for a moment, and laughed: "It's not easy, you finally found out the hard work of our worker bees?" ”
Lu Ande was still smiling: "Are you going to let the promotion officer see what kind of meaningful gossip you are talking about for a while?" ”
"Uh......"
Luande said no more, but stretched out his hand and signaled that they could go to the real place of the incident.
Liang Lu finally came to his senses, his face was straight, he saluted synchronously with Ronan, threw the special maintenance vehicle aside, and turned into the much narrower "Guan Yi 542" secondary corridor.
Ronan didn't expect to be able to approach the vicious environment he was so interested in so soon, and he was quite excited, and his steps were brisk. However, Liang Lu next to him was pregnant, and the more he walked, the more sluggish he became, and he unconsciously fell behind by half a body, muttering to himself:
"A lot of people are coming."
Ronan turned his face in confusion, not understanding what it meant.
"I mean, it's not just the promotion officers who are here to review. The senior is now the captain of Sir Shi Yuan's personal guard, and if he comes, Sir Shi will most likely come. The frontier bigwigs came here, and our side will be reciprocal, even if Sir Tang doesn't come, Sir Hui will come...... Zhan Xiao is not easy to pass. ”
During this time, Ronan almost understood the basic division of the army's sergeants, officers, and lords, and also roughly distinguished which the senior commanders of the relay station were.
At this time, he can correspond to every name Liang Lu said: Sir Shi Yuan is a third-class sage, serving as the commander of the mobile unit of the relay station, although there are less than a thousand people under his command, and he has a single responsibility, only responsible for the battlefield charge, but the lowest rank of his subordinates is also a third-class non-commissioned officer chief, all of whom are elites from a hundred.
Sir Tang Tong is a second-class star-lord, among the twelve lords of the relay station, the title is the highest, and the highest commander of the base is only on par with her, serving as the head of the logistics department, but this concept of "logistics" is big logistics, in short, everything that has nothing to do with direct combat command is under her control.
Sir Chang Yihui was a third-class knight, serving as Sir Tong Tong's deputy and his immediate boss in the name of school officer. However, almost regardless of technical matters, most of the specific affairs are handled by Shengzhan. But this department in charge is directly related to today's events:
"The Immortal Mechanism."
This is a rather awkward name, and it seems to involve allusions to the Tianyuan civilization. It took a lot of effort for Ronan to achieve a more accurate translation. Literally, this is a "quiet and secluded administrative body", or more precisely, a central department to achieve the goal of "quiet and secluded".
It is aimed at the environment of evil, that is, the institutions that specialize in dealing with evil.
Ronan straightened out the positions and powers of several bigwigs, and finally understood what Liang Lu meant: "They came over to deal with Xiao Xiao's officials...... Like a source of infection? ”
"It's a question of whether to dispose of people or things."
Liang Lu's brows were about to lock, and Ronan still knew too little about the situation to do further analysis. At this time, they were close to the patched "contaminated area".
Ronan had already seen that in this relatively small space, there were already many people standing, most of them were controlling instruments and equipment, and they were busy, but there were no bigwig-level characters inside, and they hadn't arrived yet.
The highest-ranking over there was a young school officer, and at the same time the most idle one. He leaned on the curved inner wall of the passage, his back arched inward, a little casual, his face was lowered, and he couldn't see his expression clearly, but even so, the first feeling was that his limbs were slender and coordinated, quite handsome, and he was a very eye-catching figure.
But what Ronan finds more striking is the silver armband on his upper left arm: an abstract spiral representing a ladder and a half-open and half-closed monocular motif in the middle.
Ronan was guessing who it was, and Liang Lu next to him stopped in shock: "Zhan Xiao!" ”
There were many refractions and overlaps in the sound wave transmission of the secondary corridor, and it was not very clear, but the young officer still sensed it for the first time, he raised his head, and the corners of his mouth went up:
"Liang Lugongshi, the frequency of your random testing is a bit high."
