Chapter 88: Space Bootcamp
Although the space elevator is good, Mu Chen can't ride with his family this time.
After handing over the escort mission, Mu Chen received a message from the optical brain, asking him to report to the space training camp in Sky City as soon as possible, and prepare to start the military academy in the future.
Seeing Mu Yue and a few people enter the elevator cabin, Mu Chen took his teammate's car to the training camp not far away.
Co-founded by the Earth Federation, this training camp is large and houses hundreds of space fighters of various types, and even a few of the latest test aircraft are still being tested.
These weapons and equipment are what every space pilot needs to learn and master in the future, and Mu Chen has begun to look forward to his future training life.
Today is the day of the report of the senior cadets of the military academy, where the outstanding pilots selected by the military academies of all countries will undergo their final training.
Being able to pass the assessment means that they can obtain a space pilot's license by themselves, and this step is the last hurdle of the ninety-nine-eighty-one difficulty for them.
Mu Chen is different from everyone, after the previous combat commendation meeting, he got his license, and it can be said that he is already a qualified space pilot.
However, this training is still very important to him, he can't just fly those two types of fighters, there are still a lot of knowledge and skills in space combat that he needs to master.
There were already many students waiting in the training camp, and Mu Chen was almost the last to arrive.
These students were all wearing student uniforms, and when they saw Mu Chen coming in wearing a space pilot combat uniform, they thought that the instructor of the training camp had arrived, so they hurriedly lined up and saluted.
"Hello instructor!" Uniform slogans sounded.
Mu Chen is a little embarrassed, I am also a student like you, how can I be embarrassed by your treatment of me like this.
"Well, everyone misunderstood, I'm also a student who came to study." Mu Chen explained honestly.
"Then how can you wear a pilot's uniform? Aren't you afraid of violating discipline? One of the students said strangely.
This is also the discipline of the army, only soldiers who are serving can wear clothing that matches their own military class, while cadets of military schools can only wear uniform uniforms.
"I just came back from a mission, and I haven't had time to change yet." Mu Chen explained simply.
Although everyone was a little strange, they didn't ask anything more, some tasks have confidentiality regulations, and there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble if you inquire privately.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the real instructors to come, 5 space warriors with the rank of lieutenant colonel.
Judging by the clothing, the five instructors came from different units, and there were even instructors from the maintenance troops.
The crowd hastened to assemble and stand in line.
"Hello students!"
"Hello instructor!"
A black instructor looked at the cadets earnestly, his gaze sweeping over everyone's face like an eagle's eye, and each student who was seen felt as if he had been stabbed with a knife.
Mu Chen's feeling is okay, he is familiar with his teammates on the Giant Whale, and he has long been accustomed to this kind of eyes that have been practiced on the battlefield, so naturally there is no discomfort.
The black instructor saw that Mu Chen was unmoved, and was not frightened by his momentum, and felt a little strange, but when he saw this student wearing a space pilot's combat uniform, he probably guessed something.
"The five of us are your training leaders for the next year, my name is Paul, and I am mainly responsible for your space fighter training subjects." Paul said with a grimace.
Several other instructors also introduced the subjects they were responsible for, including fighter maintenance, space escape and survival, tactical analysis, and battlefield first aid.
Points will be awarded for the training of each subject, and among the more than 100 students, only the 20 or so with the highest points will finally graduate.
Mu Chen was also taken aback by this ridiculously high elimination rate, but don't eliminate yourself in the end, it will be a shame.
The first day of reporting was mainly for the purpose of allocating dormitories to each trainee, as well as for brief exchanges and introductions, and the specific training will not start until the day after tomorrow.
Mu Chen also had a day to return to the ground to deal with some things, and it can be said that this time regulation was specially prepared for him.
Having just returned to Earth from Titan, there are always a lot of things to deal with, and Mu Chen is grateful for the instructor's care.
After dealing with the things in the training camp, Mu Chen left in his comrade's car.
These guys are waiting to have a good drink with him, and they have heard on the Giant Whale that Mu Chen has the ability to mix alcohol, and they have been waiting for a long time to see and see.
Driving to a bar in Sky City, I saw that it was full of comrades who served on the Whale, and at this time they had already started drinking in groups.
During the mission, the Whale will have strict prohibition rules on board, and will not carry a drop of alcohol, and these warriors will already be hungry and thirsty.
Once you've handed over your tasks, the first thing you need to do is find a bar and relax.
Mu Chen's arrival made many people's eyes shine, and the squadron leader of the Fifth Landing Force directly stuffed a bottle of vodka and pulled Mu Chen to fight with him.
Mu Chen is naturally not timid, his alcohol consumption has long been exercised in Wang Jun's bar, and he has never been drunk, but he just doesn't like to drink very much.
At this time, Mu Chen naturally couldn't spoil the fun, Mu Chen touched the wine bottle with the other party, raised his head and drank a full bottle of vodka, and then shouted without changing his face and heartbeat: "Who else?" ”
This arrogance made everyone applaud for a while, not only did no one think he was arrogant, but they thought that this pilot, who seemed to have a somewhat weak temperament, was an atmospheric person and very heroic.
Then there were more people looking for Mu Chen to drink, and those who didn't know each other came to have a drink with him, and Mu Chen also didn't refuse to come, and the wine was dry without the slightest hesitation.
It didn't take long for a few people who were drinking with Mu Chen to be put down and helped aside by other comrades.
And Mu Chen finally had a moment of respite, sitting in the corner with a wine glass, slowly drinking, he was still a little drunk just now, and he felt a little dizzy at this time.
"I said, can you take it easy when you drink? I'm not afraid of drinking my body to death. Laura pulled out a chair, sat down beside Mu Chen, and said with some reproach.
"Hey, it's okay, I know how much I've drunk, I'll be fine." Mu Chen said with a smile, he still knows how to appreciate the care of others.
"Then you have to take your time, there will be a funeral for your fallen comrades tomorrow morning, don't get drunk and unconscious."
"It's a big deal, but I can't delay it, I'll try to drink as little as I can for a while." Mu Chen nodded and said.
The funeral of the martyrs can be taken seriously, they are all comrades-in-arms who fought side by side, and Mu Chen hopes to send them off for the last time in the best condition.
