In the Sacred Spring Pavilion, the clear and slightly purple water of the Holy Pond shone in the sun, and after the Holy Spring was diluted twenty times, the original rich purple luster had faded a lot.

Under the guidance of the baptist, the 16-year-old students first registered for the holy guard exam and wrote down their desired direction.

Now, the children, dressed in silver costumes resembling spacesuits, stepped into the sacred pool more than half a meter deep, and Ilul was among them. Of course, this deep-pressure spacesuit is just a formality, marking that the child has reached adulthood and can enter the space guard selection half a year later. After the elimination of the exams, only about 30% of the children were promoted to the Holy Guard.

Uncle Guo, who was in charge of blending the holy spring in Jiaxing, also came to the scene, standing side by side with the baptist, and was speaking impassionedly, with a pinch of white beard on his chin and shrugging it one by one.

"Look at the water in this Holy Spring Pavilion, it is the C liquid on our Ga, it can be used as a buffer for the human body in a sub-light travel state, and its composition includes a kind of isomeric selenium that is scarce on Earth, and its appearance allows humans to finally travel to and from the star axis safely. One of the most important classes in your school is the C-Fluid Exercise. Without the presence of C liquid, any sub-light acceleration and deceleration will cause the human body to disintegrate into a pool of blood under the pressure change. ”

"That's amazing!" Everyone looked at each other.

Ouya whispered to Ilul, "It seems that this old man's speech remains the same every year. ”

Ilul said, "How do you know? ”

"That's what I said when I accompanied my cousin the year before last and when I accompanied my sister last year." Ouya Road.

Uncle Guo also said emotionally on the podium: "Do you know why C liquid is called Holy Spring? Because the C liquid is extracted from the ocean of Jiayue, and the content is very rich, but there is no C liquid on any planet or other moon in the Reims system, and its composition has not been fully understood until now; Second, the measurement of the seabed rocks of Jiayue found that the existence of C liquid can only be traced back to the contemporary rock formation 50,000 years ago, that is, it appeared in Jiayue very late, and it may even be a precious gift left to us by aliens! Because of the appearance of the Holy Spring, our space for space activities has expanded tenfold! ”

Grandpa Guo's words made everyone think about it, but Yiluer just wanted to laugh. Because Ouya was reciting Uncle Guo's lines in her ears word for word at the same time.

"Alright, it's almost over. Note! He's about to raise his voice! Oya winked at her.

Sure enough, Grandpa Guo's voice suddenly became louder, as if reciting a poem: "About 700 years ago, we set off from the earth, bravely crossed the star axis, and finally came to this beautiful planet 50 light years away. Now, although the star axis has collapsed, we can still continue to sail far away and enter the depths of space through the protection of the holy spring water! And today, you will be baptized here and fight for the future of Gaxing! Please solemnly swear an oath! ”

"Today, we are here to be baptized by the Holy Spring." The solemn voice of the baptister rang out.

"Today, we are here to be baptized by the Holy Spring." The children babbled and repeated.

"Tomorrow, we will set foot in space and fight for the future of Gastar!" The voice of the baptister sounded again.

"Tomorrow, we will set foot in space and fight for the future of Gastar!" A childish voice echoed in the building.

Ilul was very annoyed by these rituals, and got up early to slip away without dipping in the holy pool for a while. Why the holy spring is sacred, she didn't feel it. Adults say that the role of the sacred spring should be manifested in space navigation, and children who have never been to space will naturally not be able to experience it.

Ilul came out after changing her clothes, catching a glimpse of what her father was talking about with the registrar of the aerial exam. Dad's expression is still kind, but there is anxiety on his face that cannot be erased.

There seems to be a case. Ilul decided to follow them quietly, and when she saw them turn into an office inside, she looked around, but there was no one, so she detoured to the side by the window, pretending to smell the flowers, while listening with her ears pricked up.

"I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it. This kid of mine has always been in bad shape and is not suitable for space. This is the voice of Daddy Mia: "Isn't there no need to register her?" ”

"Whether it is suitable or not depends on the results of the selection competition in half a year. It doesn't count if anyone says it, including me and you. The registrar was apparently unmoved: "If it is not suitable, it is not too late to give up." ”

Strange, Luer thought to herself, hasn't Dad always loved her? Why doesn't he want to go to space? What's wrong with your physique?

"By the way, you also have a kid named Timer, right? How's his physique? He won't either—" asked the baptist.

"He's fine. Luer mainly suffered a brain injury because he experienced a little accident as a child. I also feel sorry for this child, for her good. ”

The more Lul listened, the more strange it became, had I been hurt in any way? Dad never mentioned it, so he wasn't lying.

The registrar paused and said, "Actually, Fang Cai's holy spring baptism is also a kind of test, if there are really people who are not suitable, they will be brought up immediately." Your daughter apparently doesn't. ”

Dad sighed, "Okay, then just report her name first." ”

Luer listened to her father's voice and suddenly felt a little strange.

In the evening, Ilul's house was brightly lit, and her friends were busy sitting in a room. The average Gaxing person has only one birthday in his life, which is the baptism day of adulthood at the age of 16. Ten days in a gaga year can be used as baptism days for adult children. During the day, adult children enter the sacred pool to bathe; In the evening, parents prepare a sumptuous baptism feast for their children.

Of course, Ilul's baptismal feast was also very grand, and at this moment her friends had just arrived, and she had to watch out for Timmer to be mischievous, and she was too busy to sit down for a moment.

But after a long time of hurrying, the contents of the plate were still intact, and at a glance, Ouya, who had beautiful blond hair, was arguing with the wheat-skinned Demi with raised eyebrows and glaring. From time to time, others add fuel to the table debate.

"What did you say?" Luer said dissatisfiedly: "Are you reluctant to eat?" ”

Ouya glanced at Ilul, and pulled her to her side coldly: "Ilul, you say, which one will win in this quarter's public opinion evaluation of the Holy Star Army Division?" ”

The highest administrative body of Gaxing is the General Government of Gaxing, which is composed of 40% of the outstanding members of the Pioneer Family. The Shengheng Palace is the headquarters of the Holy Star Army of Gatis Star, which consists of twelve Holy Star Army subdivisions, each of which controls a military camp, including the Shallow Sea Combat Army, the Deep Sea Special Forces, the Space Defense Force, the Marine Army, the Information Force, the Public Security Army, and so on.

"How can I know this, I can decide that I won't be here......" Ilul couldn't raise any spirit for such distant political affairs: "Anyway, I don't know anyone, and whoever is elected is the same." ”

"Of course, the head of the Seventh Army, Kaichana!" Demi said brightly, "He's the best, because he's originally from the Pioneer family." ”

The Pioneer family is the ancestor of the Lance humans, and although the Pioneer can never return to Earth in their lifetime, the Pioneer including the descendants can have the naming and ownership of the territory in Gastar or the neighboring Fog Star, enjoying the status and power of royalty.

Demi continued, "Moreover, since the Seventh Division he led was in charge of the space defense, even the Fog Star people did not dare to act rashly against us. The military commander is strong, and he is handsome..."

Due to the fact that the relationship between the two satellites is good and bad now, and the last decade has come to an extraordinary period of frequent visits by meteor showers, the space defense force of the Gaxing satellite is even more critical, and the active and reserve personnel of the space force account for more than 10 percent of the total population.

"How do you know what he really looks like?" Ouya retorted: "The military director will not show his true face. In public, everyone is masked, and everyone looks the same. And to compare the results, isn't the Sageming of the Sixth Army as good as Kechana? ”

Luer frowned and said: "I always feel that Sajieming is too resolute, and he doesn't leave any of the people of the Independence League alive when he catches them." ”

"By the way," Ou Ya remembered something: "There is a question that I have always found very strange: the branch of the Holy Star Army and the Holy Heng Palace are military institutions, but the names are so cute, who came up with them?" Do any of you know? ”

"Haha, you'll have to ask me about this. Guess which family on the planet is the most romantic? Demi said.

"The most romantic?" Luer tilted his head and thought for a while, "It's Kjeshit, right?"

Demi nodded and talked eloquently: "The ancestors of the Kai family are famous Danish architects on the earth, and nearly half of the construction and naming of the city in Jiaxing are attributed to the Kai family. Katie Frasa, Gastar's youngest designer, was raised by her family's environment, but her older brother Kechana still became a soldier. No kidding, I know all the gossip of the Kai family! ”

Ouya smiled and teased her: "Yo! You're really hard, but you can't get married, why do you know so much? You can't use it to be a matchmaker. ”

"What did you say?!"

Demi glared at Ouya like an aggressive little rooster, and it seemed that the two were about to start an endless big debate again, and Luer hurriedly diverted the topic: "By the way, how many pioneer families are there on our Jiaxing?" ”

Ou Ya is like a few family treasures: "There are nine of them one after another, each with its own division of labor, Kjeldahl who is engaged in construction, Ai Shi, who is doing atmospheric engineering, etc., all of them moved from the old earth to Jiaxing..."

Luer was about to say something, but two pale green high-speed air currents passed past her ears, making Lul almost jump up in fright, and when she looked back, Timmer was grimacing at the window.

"You guy......" Luer raised an eyebrow, and when he touched his neck, it was already frosty. It turned out to be a rocket made of Xiaoice crystals.

"Sisters, why are you staying in the house all the time?" Timmer shouted, "My dad has loaded the rocket and is ready to launch." ”

"Okay! Let's go out and see. Ouya shouted, pulling everyone out of the house.

In the open space outside the hut, Mia was standing by the launch pad, checking the delicate rocket covered in colored stars one last time.

"Ten, nine, eight,......" Timmer shouted, "Three, two, one, launch." ”

Two rockets flew into the sky at the same time, "Whew! Shout! Two voices drew a beautiful arc of smoke, and then there was a crisp collapse sound, a purple smoke dissipated, and the sky showed a few gaxing characters:

"Happy sixteenth birthday, Elul!"

"Happy Birthday! We're adults! Space is ours! ”

Ouya, Jian Lin, and Demi threw Ilul into the air and caught it together. Luer turned his head inadvertently, but he froze:

Under a smoky sky, Mia fell on one knee and said the most pious prayer of the Gass to the sky, looking attentive and strange......
