On the other side, the flying field of the Grey Castle Sky Knight Academy was also a busy scene.

All the trainers were dragged out of the hangar and lined up at the end of the runway, and the thirty or so regular cadets held their breath and listened to the words of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess. Farther afield, those who have not passed the assessment or who have been newly selected sit around the runway, waiting to watch the new round of flights.

"Starting today, your training will enter a whole new stage!" Tilly said with her head held high as she stood in front of a group of people far taller than her, "think back to what you've been learning for more than a month, and tell me out loud!"

"Pull up, Your Highness!" replied excitedly to the student who had been ordered.

"Next. ”

"Hover!"

"Shadow!"

"Huh?"

"No......," the answerer quickly retracted, "I mean...... Anti-dizziness training, Your Highness!"

"Strange ......," Finkin muttered quietly, "Her Highness Tilly's temper seems to be much better than it used to be?"

"Is there one?" Hinds also lowered his voice, "Let's not say that as long as you make a mistake, punishment is absolutely inevitable, you just finished cleaning the toilet for a month, and you forgot it now?"

"That's not what I'm talking about," Finkin, looking at Goode, "what do you think?"

Goode nodded slightly, "I feel that way too. Before, he had always felt that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess seemed to be in an inexplicable state of anxiety and eagerness, probably because of the poor performance of the Sky Knight students. After the expansion of the team of more than 200 people, only more than 30 people standing here passed the assessment.

If it was just a small pass rate, planes were sent from outside one after another, but so far there are only six available in the hangar, and the others have been damaged during test flights. Listening to the instructor Eagle Face, the price of an airplane is more expensive than a sea ship, and if there are thousands of golden dragons, there will be no one, I'm afraid that no one will be in a good mood......

However, the situation seems to have changed recently, and His Highness's teachings are still severe, but there is a lack of breathless heaviness between his eyebrows.

They recently crashed the plane...... Obviously it hasn't decreased, right?

"Finkin, it's your turn. Someone around reminded him.

Finjin hurriedly straightened up, "Discipline, Your Highness, I have learned discipline!"

"And duty!" Heinz continued.

The crowd erupted in a slight laugh.

"Tsk, I've suggested a long time ago, we should stuff these guys into the military camp for a month or two before we talk about it. ”

"That's how you come from a civilian background, bear with me. ”

Apparently these words came from the mouths of cadets selected by the army - a month after being punished for cleaning toilets, their deeds have become typical for the entire academy. However, the cadets from the same civilian background would only make fun of them for a couple of sentences at most, and the only ones who scoffed at their behavior and wanted to escort the North Slope Mine immediately were the people of the First Army.

Tilly didn't say much, "Next." ”

Goode put aside distracting thoughts and said, "Love." ”

The procession was once again filled with the sound of ear to ear.

"Is that what you've learned?"

"I'm afraid I can't think of any other words......

He originally thought that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess would express his dissatisfaction or ask further, but the other party's gaze only stayed for a moment before moving to the next student.

After everyone had answered, Tilly nodded, "You haven't been flying for long, but you've learned a lot!

"Yes, Your Highness!" said the crowd.

"You will be divided into two groups, with three teams on each side, and you will have a simulated confrontation! The rules are very simple, as long as you put the opponent in the crosshair for ten seconds without being thrown off, it will be considered a successful shootdown. In the past you have only practiced shooting at fixed targets on the ground, but this time, you will experience what a real aerial duel looks like!"

Everyone was immediately excited.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!" a cadet raised his hand impatiently.

Say. ”

"In the gun...... There are no bullets, right?"

"Fool. Finkin scoffed.

"Of course not," Tilly shook her head, "not even a gun, to be exact...... Mounted on the nose and fuselage is just a model. You don't have to worry about pulling the trigger when you're nervous and really knocking your teammates down.

Everyone laughed.

"Besides, shooting in flight is far more complicated than a simulation on the ground, and it doesn't mean that you will hit if you put in the crosshair, so even if there are bullets, you will probably miss out of ten. She shrugged, "Any questions?"

Sure enough, His Royal Highness has changed slightly, and Goode secretly thought that if it was the eldest princess in the past, it was unlikely that she would show such a relaxed expression.

"I, I—" Finkin said, raising his hand. After getting permission, he glanced at the First Army cadets, "Your Highness, since it is a confrontation, how can you tell the winner from the loser? Even if I bite the other party and can't pay it back at all, it doesn't mean that the other party is willing to admit defeat." ”

Although the regular cadets had never been exposed to air combat, the basic concept was taught in the classroom - if the air knight wants to defeat the enemy, he should aim the nose of the aircraft at the target as much as possible, and this process is called "biting". Of course, the rear seat also has a machine gun position, but the angle of fire is limited, and it is more used to assist and stifle the enemy's pursuit.

"That's up to me. Tilly took the hands of the two women beside her—"They're my specially invited guests, and every action you make will be watched by me, don't try to fool around." ”

“...... It's Lord Sylvie. ”

"The other seems to be the ......Steward of the Sleeping Spell," Goode heard the whisper of the First Army cadets behind him.

"And the trainee phalanx over there is not just sitting. The eldest princess continued, "Do you see the two-color flags in their hands? Looking down from the sky, their formation is exactly six numbers, and when you take off, the green flag means normal, the red flag means that it is shot down, and after noticing that your number has turned red, you have to exit the combat area and return to the airport." Got it?"

"Understood!"

"Very well, I'm in the team now. ”

Surprisingly, the teams were not put together in order, but had a special list. Eventually, Goode and Finkin were assigned to the same squad, numbered two.

"This is the first group of people to train on boarding, and it's up to you to decide who drives and who shoots. After 15 minutes, teams 1 to 3 will take to the air first and will not remain in the airspace above the airport. The last three teams take off after five minutes, and then the training begins!" Tilly clapped her hands, "Show me everything you've learned!"

Goode couldn't help but clench his fists.

He felt his chest thump.

"Did you notice?" Finkin, leaning over.

"Ahh Goode replied. The first three teams were all civilian cadets, while the last three were all from the First Army.

Her Royal Highness the eldest princess wants to see which side is stronger!

"Oh, that's exactly what I want," Finjin rubbed his nose, "I've endured their ridicule for a long time. I admit to being punished for making mistakes, but since I am an empty knight, I have to go to the sky to divide the high and low in the end!"

Goode didn't care who won or lost, he just wanted each flight to last a little longer so that he could linger a little longer in that happiness. He looked down at his hands—they were trembling slightly, as if in response to his own thoughts. The thought of being able to hold on to the joystick made him feel a surge of heat all over his body.

"I'll fly the plane, you just shoot well. Finkin tapped him on the shoulder.

"You know it can't be. Goode said without hesitation.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally Finjin reluctantly said, "Okay, the old rules. ”

Neverwinter has a simple and effective method of adjudication, the exact origin of which is unknown, some say it is commonly used within the Witch League, others say it is from His Majesty, but no matter what, it does work.

"Rock-scissors-paper!"

"I won. Goode put away his slap.

Finjin stared at his fist for a long time before he muttered resentfully, "It's just once, and there will be a lot of this kind of training in the future anyway." ”

The two went to the biplane parking area and boarded the plane in order of number.

"You ...... Come on!" Hinds snapped his eyes on the side of the runway—he wasn't on the first list of confrontations, so he felt like an inspiration, and the meaning of his eyes was self-evident.

"Hmph, we didn't practice for nothing. Finkin pulled down his windshield goggles and gave a thumbs-up to the ground crew.

The ladder was quickly removed, and the propeller in the nose snapped twice as the joystick spun and slowly spun.

When the piston started and the throttle was turned on, Goode felt as if the mechanical creation beneath him had come to life.

"The runway is clear, you can take off!" saluted the ground crew.

He raised his arm vigorously and returned a standard military salute, "Machine two, dispatch!"

The biplane slid under his control onto the runway, then accelerated until it hit the blue sky against the sea breeze.
