179 Graduation Party

There are many pioneers who have entered the base today.

Many of them are the same as Tu Ran, and they look dusty.

On the other side of them are the new pioneers who are dressed in brand-new and straight combat uniforms and have meticulously combed hairstyles.

They are all eighteen or nineteen years old.

In her world, it happened to be the time when she graduated from high school and went to college.

Each of them had hope and imagination for the future on their faces, as well as the pride and ambition to make a name for themselves throughout the Federation.

The banquet hall was renovated from a weekday training ground.

The lights shine brightly, as bright as day.

Tu Ran and the three of them found a seat specially arranged for the previous pioneers and sat down.

There were about 500 seats in this area, but only a small half of them were seated, half of them remained within the threshold, and some of them were assigned to other states and could not be brought back, and now they are all in neighboring states.

The crowd is scattered and scattered.

Compared with today's bustling and full of scenes in the area where the protagonists are located, it seems very lonely and lonely.

On the high platform of the training ground, on the luxury seats, there are some leaders and figures.

There were men and women, each brightly dressed and with radiant faces.

Looking at the pioneers in the audience, there was a smile of joy on his face.

Can you not laugh? Tu Ran thought secretly.

There are so many more people who are willing to work for them.

If it were her, she would wake up smiling when she slept.

Tu Ran saw Xie Zhao in that row of people.

He sat in the middle.

After all, it is not an exaggeration to sit in the main position as the commander-in-chief of the pioneer team, who single-handedly promoted the pioneer team from proposal to establishment to official operation and achieved results.

At this moment, the host of the evening is inviting him to speak.

No matter what world you are in, there will be no shortage of such nonsense processes.

But fortunately, they came more than half an hour late, and Xie Zhao was the last person to speak, which belonged to the finale.

The training ground fell silent.

There is no more restlessness when the previous few people spoke.

Everyone sat down peacefully.

For Xie Zhao, the commander-in-chief, everyone still respects him very much.

"The previous instructors have talked a lot, and they are all boosting everyone's morale, so I won't repeat it in the same way, I want to say something different."

He paused, and looked at the seat of the first pioneer where Tu Ran and the three of them were.

A few people are sparsely pulled.

"There weren't a lot of pioneers from the last session." He said suddenly, as if talking to himself.

With his words, the second pioneer looked this way.

Only then did I notice these seniors who looked exhausted.

"Do you know why so few people came?" Xie Zhao moved his gaze back to the eighteen or nineteen-year-old boys and girls in front of him.

"Don't have time?" A teenager in the audience replied loudly.

Xie Zhao chuckled, "That's one of the reasons, they're really busy."

"Don't bother to come back?" A young girl stood up.

Her words resonated with others.

Indeed, it's just a graduation party, what's there to see.

When they become full-fledged pioneers and leave the training base, there are no rules to bind them, they can go wherever they want to play in their spare time, and who wants to waste their time coming back to attend the graduation party.

"For this reason...... Maybe it exists," Xie Zhao's voice fell silent, "but it's not the main reason. ”

"What is the main reason?" Someone asked curiously.

"In the past five years, the instructors have exposed you to positive things, giving you infinite hope, making you trust your profession, believing that the title of pioneer will bring you supreme glory, and think that your future is bright."

"But we never told you what happened to the last class of pioneers."

"What do you remember most about the last Pioneers?" Xie Zhao looked at everyone in the audience.

"It's their unattainable results, it's the best record that you can't reach after countless trainings, it's the longest distance of 3460m in long-range sniping, it's the ultra-high fighting technique of 35 minutes undefeated by a single person and all the fighting instructors, it's the longest time record for AR xenomorphs to hide and escape for 27 days, it's the shortest time record for running 40 kilometers with weight, and so on."

The venue was quiet, everyone was listening carefully, immersed in Xie Zhao's slow voice, and also immersed in the bits and pieces of the five-year intensive training.

"There are records that you have surpassed, and there are records that you have not touched."

"And in addition to the data you know, there is also some data that you have never heard of, which I have withheld."

Xie Zhao lowered his eyes and picked up the electronic screen that had been placed in the center of the table.

Everyone in the audience stared at him, unconsciously clenching their hands, although they didn't know what the commander-in-chief would say next, but the excitement and apprehension of the unknown made them look forward to Xie Zhao saying it soon.

"The number of graduates of the first class of pioneers, 2,261."

"As of the day of graduation of the second batch of pioneers, that is, today, the number of remaining personnel has been determined, 576 people."

"The number of fatalities was determined, 134."

"The number of people who have not left the threshold twice, 1,021."

Xie Zhao raised his head, "Everyone should know what it means to not come out of the threshold more than twice. ”

This means a mortality rate of 95 per cent.

There was a dead silence in the audience.

Therefore, in this whole year, nearly half of the seniors of the previous class died.

They are so good and so many people have died, so what about them?

Everyone shuddered.

Xie Zhao didn't stop.

"The number of people who have been seriously injured and in a coma and have no signs of consciousness until now, 16 people."

"The 514 people who are not counted, they just entered the threshold yesterday, their fate is unknown, and they need to wait for their return to update the data."

"There is also a statistic from the medical department on the number of pioneers in our pioneer team who have visited the medical department in the past year."

"I'm going to give you a few simple statistics."

"The average number of nutrition pods used is three times per person."

"You may not know much about the nutrition pod," Xie Zhao raised his head and explained, "The nutrition pod is expensive to use, and in most cases, the medical department will only recommend the use of the nutrition pod when the injury is life-threatening, or there are more important things to deal with and need to repair the wound quickly." ”

Hearing this, Tu Ran narrowed her eyes, is it really fake?

The last few times she has used the nutrition cabin is purely because of the quick recovery, plus she has another year of free access, so she doesn't have to use it in vain, and she goes with this mentality.

But the first time she used the nutrition pod, the doctor in the medical department recommended her to use it.

She didn't have anything important to attend to.

It can only be because of the serious injury.

She was banging on the back of her head.

She remembered only a slight pain.

I didn't expect it to be so serious.

Xie Zhao was still reading the data.
