The star named Chang'an, named Chang'an by the pioneers of the pioneering era, has risen in the east, and in front of the vine-strewn apartment building, a teenager in a navy blue uniform is staring at the sky.

At this time, the two satellites belonging to Xuchang had not yet fallen.

They are one south and one north, one high and one low, one purple and one blue, and the twin stars shine under the light, and the sky at this moment is magnificent and suffocating, this is the beauty that only exists in the interstellar era, and this is the hometown where he, Huo Chenggong, will never see him again.

He was twenty-two years old when he left home, and he is sixteen years old this year.

The year the war broke out, as a pilot, Huo Chenggong had no choice, and he willingly embarked on a journey to defend the Federation to defend justice.

Last night... Fighting entanglement, full of fireworks...

The missile hit the target with a tail flame, the space was illuminated by the fire ignited by the exploding battleship, the deadly beam pierced through the mecha, the wreckage splashed everywhere after the energy shield burst, and the screams suddenly came from the noisy channel, and in the blink of an eye, everything was silent again, and the universe returned to its eternal black, cold and deep nature...

Then he woke up from the dream and found that he was still living in his youth, but Huo Chenggong knew that those were not dreams, otherwise why did the memory of the memory and the reality match so much, this lonely life experience, and everything within reach.

Standing there, he sighed involuntarily, and finally took a step towards the direction of the academy, today was his first day to enter the National Defense Pilot's Academy, and he will also enter that famous institution for the second time, and start another life.

There was an old man walking on the side of the road, children playing on his lap, crisp children's sounds in his ears, and green grass in the wind. The old man looked at the uniform on his body, showed an appreciative look, and raised his thumb at him, but Huo Chenggong smiled bitterly at him and continued to move forward.

The abundant resource support of the interstellar era makes the environment of these inhabited stars like a fairyland, everywhere is covered by lush vegetation, the original ecological mountains and rivers, retro buildings are dotted with flowers, and under the protection of the high welfare system, people are here to spend their leisure time, and they live a life that seems to be in the idyllic poetry.

This is a golden age that has lasted for thousands of years since the pioneering era.

People firmly believe that they can live and live without worry, but only one person understands that it is about to end, Huo Chenggong looked down and raised his wrist, today is March 5, 3016, a sunny day, there are still sixteen years before his death, but there are only six years before the outbreak of the war.

Turn the corner, and at the end of a large road is the Academy.

The light energy tram had not yet come, Huo Chenggong walked towards the platform, there were five or six people on the platform, seeing him coming, both young and old showed a kind smile, and a ten-year-old child raised his head and asked his mother: "Mom, is he a pilot?" ”

"Not yet." Huo Chenggong smiled and said, "I've just entered the school. ”

"You're going to be a great pilot in the future." The child's mother blessed with some restraint, and Huo Chenggong nodded: "Thank you." He turned his gaze in the direction of the train, but he could still feel the respectful and curious gaze of the people around him.

An elite profession like a pilot is not something that everyone can do because of the requirements of mental power, and there is a comparison to make it look extraordinary, so it is glory!

But it's more of a responsibility, Huo Chenggong said to himself, and then he wondered what happened the last time he stood here? As he recalled, the tram had arrived silently, but there was an offensive shrill laughter from the car, and almost at the same time, all eyes were on Huo Chenggong, who was wearing a military school uniform, including the owner who stopped laughing abruptly.

A round face froze behind the car window, Watanabe Ichiro, Huo Chenggong shook his head speechlessly, walked up, raised his wrist and swept the personal information terminal past the point reader, and then looked into the car.

The girl who once gave her a sneak peek and then was hot still sat helplessly in the corner of the back row, still combing her ponytail. Huo Chenggong glanced at her, and then saw the look of help, Chu Chu was moving, I really don't know what kind of beauty she will bloom in the future, because I have never met again.

But now it seems that she still looks a little younger, at least in Huo Chenggong's opinion.

It's Watanabe, who was beaten up by himself, just as cheap as in his previous life and this life, but this time, Huo Chenggong won't beat him, Huo Chenggong walked over, Watanabe and his accomplices showed a wary look, but Huo Chenggong walked in front of him and said to him: "It seems that you like her very much?" ”

Almost everyone was dumbfounded, and the boy who was looking forward to seeing a heroic pilot show even let out a sigh of disappointment.

Huo Chenggong's next sentence was: "If you do this, you won't get it." Then he sat down quietly, for him the matter has been settled, anyone will have a sense of shame, such a person will also have, especially in front of a tall reserve pilot of the same year, Huo Chenggong's age and demeanor are not in harmony, as well as his conciseness, which also makes people feel that his words are very convincing.

And the guy who looked like a veteran player in the tail line was really stunned, and his accomplices also looked at each other.

Pilots are glory, privilege, and federal power.

If you flirt with a girl in the car, it's okay, but if you take the initiative to attack a pilot with your back to you, even if it's a reserve pilot, then the end will be very miserable, Watanabe is not stupid to such a point, in front of Huo Chenggong's calm and mountain-like temperament, he doesn't have such an impulse, and he is just a teenager after all, no matter how evil he is, it will only stop there.

And in the car, a dozen or so passengers sitting in the middle of the house were secretly looking at him, which embarrassed him, and suddenly the incense swelled, and the girl mustered up the courage to stand up and walk forward, walked past him, and sat in front of the pilot.

Huo Chenggong couldn't help but look back, this guy named Watanabe glanced at, in his memory, after this guy was cleaned up by himself, he had found trouble for himself many times, he hated this guy very much at that time, in fact, hatred always has a beginning and then it will become more and more intense, and this time this guy will?

As soon as he turned around, Watanabe actually walked forward, and then sat in the seat in front of Huo Chenggong's side, and politely asked the girl, "Excuse me, what's your name?" But his demeanor was still so obscene, Huo Chenggong couldn't help but laugh, the laughter led to a laugh in the carriage, Watanabe's face was red, and the girl even turned her ears red, and turned her head to look out the window.

In embarrassment, Watanabe stretched out his hand to Huo Chenggong, saying that he seemed powerless, Huo Chenggong shook his head and said in a low voice: "I can't do anything about it." At this time, she tilted her head to look at the girl outside the window, her ponytail moved slightly, as if she wanted to turn back, but she tried to restrain herself, but from the car window, Huo Chengcheng saw that beautiful and delicate little face, a pair of eyes were quietly looking at herself.

The moment the refracted line of sight hit, she hurriedly dodged in panic, like a frightened rabbit.

Huo Chenggong smiled silently because of this.

But he had long lost his youthful feelings, and he would not be complacent, so he immediately turned his attention to that guy, although he knew his name, he still asked, "What is your name?" ”

"My name is Ichiro Watanabe."

"Nice to meet you, Huo Chenggong."

The two started a conversation about this, looking at this frivolous guy, who couldn't bear to brag about his family background in front of him to gain face. Huo Chenggong was not impatient, he just listened, and at the same time silently counted in his heart, in just five minutes, Watanabe set his eyes on the girl a total of twelve times.

In the end, he had no choice but to stop boasting, because the car had already stopped, many people were getting off, and there was one more stop to go, and then there was a ten-kilometer-long closed section, Watanabe Ichiro stood up and stretched out his hand, and Huo Chenggong also stretched out his hand with mixed feelings.

But after walking to the door of the car, he turned around again, and looked at the girl for the thirteenth time, Huo Chenggong didn't laugh at him, this was an instinct that he couldn't control when he was old, and this was not a sin.

Then Watanabe said to Huo Chenggong: "If you have the opportunity to contact you, you have to work hard to be a great pilot, don't forget me when the time comes." ”

Listening to his tone is already like an old friend, it seems that a friendship can start here in the face of such a change huo chenggong was also thinking in his heart, how could i forget you he watched him leave with a heartfelt smile on his face and the car door closed.

The tram began to move quietly again, and at this time he found that there were only himself and her, as well as the mother and son on the car, probably out of disappointment, the child glanced at Huo Chenggong angrily, and did not look back.

Along the way, continuing silently, Huo Chenggong closed his eyes, and not long after, he suddenly heard someone whisper: "Why do you want to exchange numbers with someone like that?" ”

"Are you talking to me?" Huo Chenggong opened his eyes, this time there were only him and her in the car, the beautiful girl who turned around glared at him, this time she didn't dodge, her apricot eyes widened and said, "Of course I'm talking to you." ”

Huo Chenggong was very helpless with this childish question, he sighed and said, "He didn't continue to bully you, and regained his respect." The girl was still glaring at him angrily, and Huo Chenggong finally couldn't help but say: "You didn't dare to resist when he was evil, but you resented it when I saved it, just because you didn't do it the way you thought it would?" ”

"You!" The girl also felt that she was a little excessive, she pursed her lips and whispered, "Thank you." ”

"There's really no way he's going to make it." Huo Chenggong smiled faintly, a little rejecting the meaning of thousands of miles away, in fact, he really didn't care too much about the little girl in front of him.

The girl in front of her suddenly took a deep breath, shook her ponytail and sat back heavily, Huo Chenggong suddenly suddenly, yes, she may be waiting for herself to ask her name or even her phone, so now she must think I am stupid like a donkey?

This idiot!

Xu Yue complained in his heart with a slight loss, Huo Chenggong looked at the scenery on the side of the road, and suddenly remembered a question, so he asked her in surprise: "Are you also a student of the Mecha Academy?" Xu Yue was angry and silent, only the ponytail was still shaking slightly, Huo Chenggong was bored, so he had to be silent.

And as the academy got closer and closer, he could already see the Great Wall symbol of the Federation on the academy building, which was the totem of faith that he had fought for until the hero!

At this time, the car stopped, Xu Yue got up and left, she was in front of Huo Chenggong behind, and after landing, she walked a few steps and couldn't help but turn back, and then she was stunned.

And the post at the door, the students who came in and out, noticed her beauty, and also followed her gaze to Huo Chenggong, who she was looking at.

Everyone could see that the recruit in the reserve uniform was saluting the Union flag fluttering in front of the academy, his movements and posture were as if he had practiced millions of times, and there was an unspeakable power in it that should not belong to him.

And anyone can see that the tears in his eyes are reflecting the light from Chang'an Star, as if they are rolling down irrepressibly, and this scene can't help but feel inexplicably tragic.

A sentry who was about to come forward to inquire about the situation was stopped by a slightly moved middle-aged man beside him.

After he watched Huo Chenggong walk into the academy, Xu Yue walked to his side: "Uncle." He patted his niece on the shoulder lovingly and asked, "You seem to know him?" ”

Xu Yue quickly shook his head almost subconsciously and against his will, and the girl said in an almost exaggerated tone in order to clear up the relationship that didn't actually exist: "Maybe he's crazy, right?" But the young man's expression just now was clearly firmly imprinted in her heart.

"Shut up!"

The uncle, who had always loved him, said sternly, turned around and saluted the military flag, but he was thinking in his heart, who is he, the often unrealistic heroic dreams of teenagers, it is impossible to burst out to such a degree, enthusiasm for the profession, and his age can understand what loyalty is, but he thinks he understands!

Huo Chenggong didn't know this, after the gaffe, he only felt too much attention, so he hurriedly entered the academy along the familiar road, turned around and walked onto the tree-lined side road, which was a winding path by the artificial river, with sycamores interspersed with branches, and the branches were staggered above people's heads, and the sunshine was shredded on the shoulders.

Here, he could see that in the square behind the main entrance, a group of thirteen mecha formations holding swords, shields and other weapons, posing in a combat posture, stood tall.

The thirteen mecha are composed of three 8m-high soldier standard armor, three 9m-high lieutenant assault armor, three 10m-high colonel combat armor, three 8m-high general-level special armor, and a legendary god of war armor, which expresses the fifth-order mecha equipment in the federal armed forces, and the system of twelve-level military ranks, and pays tribute to the thirteen federal heroes of the pioneering era.

Written on the alloy pedestal is a line: their names are immortal, and their deeds live on forever.

After the symbol of the academy, there is the main teaching area, where the general training and theoretical knowledge of pilots are carried out, and then there is a wide area of hundreds of square kilometers, including various complex landforms, and various settings are installed for the pilots' martial arts arena.

During the war years, countless hot-blooded men and young talents came out of here, but very few returned.

Along this boulevard, Huo Chenggong, who retracted his gaze, walked in the direction of the teaching area, when he just entered the hall, the information terminal showed the position of the recruit class 3 where he was in his previous life, Huo Chenggong He listened to the students around him, someone was saying that there was a newcomer at the door just now, how to cry, probably Fan Jinzhongju or something like that... And so on and so forth.

He didn't want to be given an awkward nickname at the beginning of his new life, so he buried his head deep into the crowd.

What's more, he just wants to work hard in a low-key manner, because he understands that there is nothing more important than improving his strength, and status! The little people can only go with the flow, and the tide can lead the times, if you have six more years of preparation time but don't cherish it, what kind of 100-fighter machine school is it?

At this time, the stairs were full of people, Huo Chenggong looked, there were more people coming here, all of them were the same color, energetic young people, wearing the same uniform as him, those faces, some... Huo Chenggong lowered his head, he was thinking, it would be good to see you who had died again.

When he raised his head again, Huo Chenggong looked at the staircase, but let out a wail in his heart.

In addition to requiring the pilot to have strong mental power, the mecha with a full simulation of the optical brain sensing is also required to have a strong physique.

And everywhere there is qualification, not to mention the highly hierarchical military school, so the freshman class is on the top floor, the fifty-second floor, and must go up. It's not that there is no elevator, how can there be no elevator in the interstellar era, but the elevator is for veterans above the captain level, and newcomers can only use their legs, which is not negotiable.

I used to see the green guys who walked trembling and flushed every year, gasping and leaning against the wall to go in and out, how could I think that I would have to be a grandson twice?

Huo Chenggong sighed in his heart on this side, and walked with the brigade to the relatively high staircase designed for each step - commonly known as the road to heaven, he suddenly remembered that the three famous military schools of the Federation, in addition to national defense, are the Tokyo Military Academy and the Hebei Military Academy, each with its own characteristics, and one of the characteristics of the national defense pilot is that the knee strike is very powerful.

The army is known as the knee of national defense, the knife of Tokyo, and the gun of Hebei.

And the defense pilot's invincible knees are said to have been trained in this way.

This is.

Thinking about these all the way, Huo Chenggong started from the twenty-sixth floor, and finally began to hold on to the wall, the sixteen-year-old body and the thirty-two-year-old soul, so the taste of pain was clearer, there were brothers in front of and behind him who were connected with the same fate, and the corridor was crowded with veterans, some were actually betting, and some even made threats, for example, someone said to the recruits: "Boy, hurry up, Lao Tzu has placed a bet of 200 points on you!" ”

Whenever the horse reaches the target step, the winner will cheer, but if he loses, and then meets the senior who is not good at gambling, he will be exchanged for a scolding or even a few punches and kicks, the only difference is that each horse is neighing and gasping.

At this time, the recruits around Huo Chenggong had lost the excitement they had started, in fact, the elites that the commoners of the Federation looked up to always started like this, I don't know how, Huo Chenggong thought of the unknown tram girl, and he felt that if she could see her current embarrassment, she would definitely smile very satisfied.

Suddenly, a groan rang out in his ears.

The exhausted Huo Chenggong turned his head blankly, and a person was holding his legs there in pain and twitching, this is Dai Anlan, the heroic regiment commander who died in the Battle of Rose and was posthumously awarded a major general, but now he is so smart, yes, it is always easier for young people in the war years to come out, and then the rafters that come out are also hung first, and so on.

Seeing that he was about to roll down the stairs, he knew that he would still be alive for at least fifteen years in the future, but Huo Chenggong still couldn't help but catch him, because if he was allowed to play freely, he would be smashed all the way down, oh, he would be smashed by two colonels, three lieutenants... It was his friend Wu Anjun who turned around, and this guy later became a major general...

And Dai Anlan was still writhing painfully beside him, and Huo Chengcheng understood the pain of cramps, because he was also fast, but he resolutely refused to let go, and finally, Wu Anjun also climbed up, panting and holding Dai Anlan from the other side, and smiled reluctantly at Huo Chenggong. But before Huo Chenggong could talk to him, a roar came from the side: "You bastard, why did you stop?" ”

What a familiar roar, Huo Chenggong saw that a handsome lieutenant with a flushed face was squeezing out of the crowd on the side of the corridor with his teeth and claws.

Seeing that it was him, Huo Chenggong was dumbfounded.

This is the commander Zhang Zizhong, who created a brilliant result in the total annihilation of a group army in Europa, and finally died heroically in the Battle of Triumphal Arch! Almost instinctively, Huo Chenggong instantly burst out of strength, he stood up, gave a standard military salute, and said loudly: "Report to the chief, he has cramps." ”

"Bastard! Traitor! You are a disgrace to a soldier like this, even if you have a broken leg, you have to climb to your destination, not to mention that it is just cramps, and good men will not shed tears when they bleed..."

It seems that the chief is always so impassioned and enthusiastic, whether he gambles money or his life.

Huo Chenggong looked at it stupidly, he was so heroic in his youth, but it is said that before he got married, he only changed his underwear once a month, which is also now prostrate at his feet, Wu Anjun, the bastard, whispered in private, it may be fabricated.

Ha, no wonder Wu Anjun hates him so much, because Lieutenant Zhang Zizhong kicked him down viciously... Come on, General Dai Anlan also went down together, and there were countless miscellaneous fish along the way, and the wails were all over the road to heaven.

Glory always comes with hardship.

Huo Chenggong, who sighed a little in his heart, didn't care about them anymore, so he hurriedly ran up, Zhang Zizhong shouted from behind: "Who comes again, this time I will bet 500 points on this kid." ”

"Who the fuck bets on you? You pay the bill first. ”

Listening to this voice is very familiar, it must also be a character, but Huo Chenggong doesn't look back, there is more than one dead and alive, there are too many acquaintances here and there is always an end to surprise, he just ran up desperately, he thought that if he couldn't ride on their heads to and pee in his life, it would be good to leave a good impression on the chiefs.

So, with such ambitions, he was the first to arrive in this batch of freshmen, thus becoming the leader of Class 3!
