A few months later, the blood wolf rushed to the front line at the order of the empire, and Ying Ao and the others were also going to have a coming-of-age ceremony, which happened to be at a certain point in time.

There are a total of nineteen people in this coming-of-age ceremony (here are only the coming-of-age ceremony candidates of the wolf tribe), originally according to the iron-blooded tradition, the ceremony was carried out in a small team of three people, but because of Yingao's special performance, the blood wolf helped him apply for the coming-of-age ceremony.

After discussion within the tribe and Ying Ao's application, Ying Ao was assigned to the Celtic team that went to the Source Star, consisting of the Blood Wolf's apprentice Chopper, and two other nobles: Celtic and Scar.

According to the tradition of Iron Blood, when the underage Iron Blood in the clan reaches the conditions of adulthood (age 18 to 20, the strength is passed. After that, they will be assigned an adult mission: kill an alien.

This task is unified, but with the development of the Iron Blood Empire, most of the ordinary civilians Iron Blood perform coming-of-age ceremonies in their respective tribes, which is of low difficulty, and is not favored by the tribe/empire higher-ups, at most becoming an ordinary warrior.

The coming-of-age ceremony of the nobles is to form a squad to go to a specific planet to hunt down the elite aliens produced by the ancient alien queen.

Only a very small number of underage civilians with particularly outstanding performance have the right to apply to the tribal elders to join the noble coming-of-age ceremony.

This rite of passage is difficult and prone to accidents, but it is noticed by the upper echelons of the tribe/empire, and the process of each trial is recorded by the elder who leads the group as evidence.

Noble Predators, who tend to perform better, can easily get into the upper echelons.

Therefore, many nobles and powerful civilians attach great importance to this coming-of-age ceremony. (Applying the real society is equivalent to the college entrance examination)

So Ying Ao fought with several Predators of the same age in the neighborhood almost every day during this time, and most Predators would still choose to agree to Ying Ao's invitation.

Although they all know that Ying Ao may not be able to stay in the empire after this coming-of-age ceremony, but because of this, the blood wolf will definitely find a way to compensate Ying Ao, and maybe he will be photographed on a remote resource star, in that case, a certain good friendship will be conducive to future resource allocation.

What's more, Ying Ao's own strength is very strong, and it is also a kind of exercise for them, so most of them readily agree to the invitation to practice.

As a result, Ying Ao's strength is gradually improving, until today.

Before leaving, the blood wolf called the two to his reception room, and the walls of the blood wolf's reception room were covered with the blood wolf's trophies, the skulls of various beasts, and the masks and weapons used by the blood wolf.

Seeing that both of them had come in, the blood wolf picked up a telescopic halberd from a weapon rack and said to Ying Ao:

"Congratulations, War Dragon, I didn't plan to let you have a coming-of-age ceremony this year, after all, even according to human tradition, you are only 18 years old, even if you are an adult in two years. But your outstanding performance earned you that honor. However, because of tradition, each coming-of-age ceremony is a group of three, so there are only three shoulder cannons stored in the trial place, I talked to the elders, and the rules of the ceremony cannot be broken, so you may not have the assistance of shoulder cannons in this coming-of-age ceremony, but the elders allowed me to give this to you in advance. The blood wolf handed the telescopic halberd in his hand to Ying Ao, who was kneeling on one knee, and Ying Ao took the telescopic halberd.

"Originally, it was intended to be given to you after you passed the trial, but that's fine. As for Chopping, I've given the Elder's exclusive weapon, and he'll give it to you after the trial. "Given that there were only three shoulder cannons at the trial site, the Blood Wolf first handed over the Battle Dragon Halberd that was originally intended to be given to Ying Ao after the coming-of-age ceremony.

"Go, I'm going to go too, there is going to be a big move on the front line recently, and Chopping may be summoned by the Empire after completing the coming-of-age ceremony, so get ready."

The blood wolf didn't say anything about Ying Ao, and Ying Ao also knew that he would definitely not be able to go to the battlefield, and recently he also heard some rumors from the mouth of the Predator who lived nearby: those nobles began to exert crazy pressure after Ying Ao won the honorary title, and even the empress was a little unbearable, so Ying Ao was likely to be sent to the edge of the empire after the coming-of-age ceremony.

"Thank you, sir." Ying Ao put away the battle dragon halberd, hung it behind his back, saluted the blood wolf, and retreated with Chopping Wave.

After watching the two leave, the blood wolf sighed silently,

"War Dragon, I can only help you get here at most, after the coming-of-age ceremony is completed, you will be free from my protection, so I can only let you go to the Source Star to become a diplomat, otherwise you will ......" The blood wolf did not say this, he knew that with the sharp observation of the war dragon, he had already detected it.

The empire's main technologies are now developed by the weaker iron-blooded nobles who don't even have titles.

As a result, their power is getting bigger and bigger, and even the empress has to make some concessions, and it is already the limit to let Ying Ao return to his hometown.

The blood wolf shook his head, not thinking about the things he wanted to change but couldn't change and couldn't change, looked at the weapon on the wall, took his own weapon from it, and then put on his mask and left through another passage.

……

After leaving the place where he had lived for 3 years, Ying Ao couldn't help but shake his head, and with the only salute: some relics of his parents, he stepped on the anti-gravity car to the trial spaceship.

As for the wet nurse, she gave Ying Ao a good childhood, and Ying Ao regarded her as her adoptive mother, but the adoptive mother was not qualified to come here, so she returned to her original place. And because of the care of Ying Ao, the blood wolf deliberately improved her status.

Feather marks are placed in foster care by the Blood Wolf on their home planet.

The Predator's vehicles are generally equipped with anti-gravity devices, and in short, the Predator's vehicles do not have purely land-based vehicles, and all vehicles can fly, although they may not fly at very high altitudes.

Such an anti-gravity vehicle is extremely fast, comparable to the fighter on the source star.

It is about a 10-minute drive from the blood wolf's residence to the meeting point.

And Ying Ao couldn't resist Chop's curiosity, and took out the Ying Ao halberd that the blood wolf handed to him.

But to be honest, Ying Ao is also very interested in what this war dragon halberd looks like.

Remove the dragon halberd from the back, press the hidden mechanism on the dragon halberd, and the dragon halberd will bounce off violently under the special mechanical operation.

This is a telescopic halberd that is improved from the Fang Tian Painting Halberd, a weapon invented by a powerful nation in ancient Yuanxing.

Similar to the telescopic spear, this war dragon halberd can be retracted, only 70CM long after shrinking, up to 2.3 meters long after unfolding, weighing 20KG, one end is the counterweight, one end is the halberd head, there are two crescent-shaped 'halberd ears' on both sides of the halberd head, and the halberd body has the war dragon pattern exclusive to the war dragon.

The structure of the battle halberd is complex, but it is not precise, and due to the metal characteristics of Zhao, these complex structures will not be damaged by the battle, at least it is difficult to damage it in battles below the heaven level, it is estimated that it is only possible if it is the ancestor of Ying Ao.

Chopping Bo looked enviously at the dragon halberd in Ying Ao's hand, although it was as compensation for the lack of shoulder cannon in the trial, but this exclusive weapon was made of rare metal Zhao (I made it up casually).

Zhao is the best known metal material in the Iron Blood Empire (there are better metals, but their properties are good, but they are not enough to use with the Iron Blood Empire's technology. ), extremely high strength, excellent toughness, light weight, ultra-high temperature resistance, ultra-low temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, even the blood of ancient alien shapes can not be helped, the only equipment problem is that the melting point of this metal is not generally high, difficult to process, and the yield is scarce.

Zhao This kind of metal is in the Predator Empire, and only senior Predators with titles have the right to apply to create a weapon, and Blood Wolf, as a Predator not far from the Elders, naturally has this right.
