Steel steam and flame

Military school, underground laboratory in the biology building.

In the fishbone-shaped divided room, basic surgeries are still in full swing. It's just that this group of people are already students in one-star colleges. Students in military schools will be evaluated with a comprehensive score when they enter the school, and will be assigned to several star colleges based on the comprehensive score. The one-star academy is the lowest, with nearly 80,000 students. It will also be the main source of the number of captains and school officers in the army in the future.

At this moment, in an office in the square-cylindrical biology building, Bolei was sitting in front of the table in a daze. His brows were furrowed, and he was holding an empty glass in his hand that had been consumed in one gulp. The crystal ice cubes inside made a crisp collision sound as they swayed.

On the table is a document with a title in red font. The document bag next to it is sealed with the highest-grade fire paint and has a specially processed fragrance.

The aroma that was supposed to relieve fatigue has now become a source of trouble.

"Bie, have you read the notice from the parliament?" Footsteps sounded next to him. It was the sound of high heels. It was crisp yet elegant, even and powerful, and the power of each step was controlled just right.

Bordeaux did not turn his head to look at the woman walking from one side who was wearing the military's standard gelatin black combat uniform but liked to wear high heels that were extremely detrimental to fighting - the head coach of the Second Samsung Academy, Himia . Just listening to her voice, he sighed, sorted out the documents in front of him, and then said: "Hemia, please help me inform the top leaders of each Samsung academy. By the way, there are also those few Professors in charge of the surgical process. It seems that it is necessary to hold a general meeting."

"Of course, that's why I came to you." Ximia looked at the documents piled up randomly on the table, and she was not in a good mood. "The time is set at eight o'clock in the evening, how about it?"

"As long as the notification is in place." Bei opened the wooden cork and refilled a glass of wine for himself.

The climate has begun to move towards spring, and even in the Blanco Mountains, the change of seasons can still be clearly felt through the changes in the length of day and night. Although the cold wind that has been blowing here is still warm.

Ye Jielin was doing muscle recovery exercises in the room. She had just finished today's training. When she came back, she felt that the muscles in her body were still tight, so she followed the method taught by the coach to decompress the muscles. When you're done, go take a nice hot bath.

The surgeries for this class of students at First Samsung College were all successful. The last student to wake up only spent three days, except of course Cassia who has not woken up yet. There are dozens of students like Ye Jielin who can wake up within a few hours after surgery.

A group of professors were shocked, because in the history of the military, these people who could escape from their dreams in just a few hours would have very dazzling achievements in the future. Therefore, for the better development of these dozens of people, they specifically applied to the military department to change the suppression tube from two to one. At the request of almost all professors in the military department, this application was approved.

Because of a suppressor tube, labels belonging to only dozens of people were created, and it became easier for Ye Jielin to recruit powerful allies.

It was close to seven o'clock in the evening. Ye Jielin had finished taking a shower and was wiping her hair with a towel. She hated the feeling of being wet. After I changed my clothes, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Hello, Sister Lin." Atuohuan's voice was nothing special. Selmer would usually just stand aside and nod. And behind them, there are now a few more people. This is the first meeting of their alliance.

"Let's go to the cafeteria to find a seat and have something to eat. We're hungry." Ye Jielin nodded and walked in front on wooden shoes that made a "thumping" sound.

"By the way, Fatty, is there any news from Cassia?" Ye Jielin never forgets to ask this ally who has always been talked about every day.

"Well, eldest sister Lin, Mr. Cassia has been in a coma for fifteen days, and eight more suppressor tubes were implanted today. Although it has been transferred to the main laboratory building by the military, it is led by several top old professors in the military. They are caring for and treating them, but there is still no news from them that Mr. Cassia is about to wake up." Atuohuan couldn't figure out Ye Jielin's thinking. Although the two had known each other for an unusually long time, Atuohuan himself But she has been eaten to death by Ye Jielin.

"According to the practice of the military, it will be considered a failure after fifteen days and should be dealt with." Atuohuan quickened his pace and followed Ye Jielin.

"For the military to be able to do this, it seems that the power behind our ally is even more powerful than we imagined. Or there is some unspeakable secret behind him that is worthy of the military doing this for him. Up?" Ye Jielin seemed to be asking but not asking.

"Since you can't figure it out, Sister Lin, then I definitely don't know either." Atuohuan touched his head with a thoughtful look on his face. When he heard that Cassia had not woken up, his first reaction was that the ally that his eldest sister Lin had chosen was too weak. The length of the dream can determine a person's future life trajectory to a large extent, because it is related to suppressing the life-threatening thing. But as things progressed further, people who were a little more savvy saw the differences surrounding Cassia. The military is an organization directly under the jurisdiction of the empire, and has great autonomy and can interfere with their decisions. The subsequent power is indeed worthy of their careful consideration.

At the same time, at eight o'clock sharp, all the top leaders of the Samsung Academy of the Military Department came to the conference hall.

Everyone looked at the copied documents in their hands with solemn expressions.

"A red star was observed in the Astronomy Palace of the Seminary? Can this be confirmed?" An old professor raised the document in his hand.

"Of course, Professor Bruce, this matter was also confirmed by the Seismology Department three days later. Now the news has spread to all institutions throughout the empire. The first thing about today is the notification, and the second thing I think you should be aware of." Looking at Professor Bruce, he said.

"Every time a red star appears, the central ocean current will be affected by it. The flow speed will accelerate, bringing the heat of the polar sea vortex, which is really a fatal phenomenon."

"And every time it happens, the endless sea on the edge of the continent will be completely frozen, and the extreme cold air flow will erode it."

"El Niño and La Niña meet again." Someone sighed.

"So the flood came, and the Red Desert seemed to be burning again." This is Alter, the director of the executive department of Samsung College, who manages the students' practical courses, that is, task arrangements.

"It's no wonder that the Far Sea Common Council invaded Fortress Visayas. This time they dispatched two generals from the Crusade Expedition, as well as the Deputy Governor of the Far East, plus several Cross Knights from the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitallers. . I was still wondering why they were so crazy that they went to the fortress, and that’s why.” Himiya said another important thing.

"Yes, this meeting is also to inform you in advance about the appearance of the red star. You have to do the next work. There are four important things." said Bei, who also had a headache here. He paused and then continued. said:

"First, all the visitors from the Far Sea Commonwealth were repelled, and only one Cross Knight of the Knights Hospitallers escaped. However, of the five Knights of the Round Table sent by our empire, only one returned safely, and one Missing, life or death is unknown, but there is probably no hope. The remaining three have been confirmed dead. Therefore, the intention of the Council is to take advantage of the buffer time for the encounter between the Holy Child and the Holy Maiden to select a plurality of replacement Knights of the Round Table. Prepare to fill the vacancies of knights. And these replacement knights of the Round Table all have the opportunity to be crowned the 'King of Knights'."

"Here, what are the Council and the Holy Emperor's Hall thinking? Have they been in high positions for too long and their heads have rotted? Do they know the significance of this decision?" Bordeaux had already foreseen people's reactions, and he motioned for people to control Your emotions, there are other things to talk about next, so don’t waste your time.

Everyone finally calmed down, but they were already trying to figure out the intentions of the people above.

"Second, the Military Ministry, Parliament and the Holy Emperor's Office have made it clear that even if the attrition rate is increased, the training process must be accelerated. Starting from the students enrolled this time, the five-year study period will be changed to three years. The Executive Department and the professors present here You guys, maybe you have the heaviest task. In half a month, the higher-ups need to see your properly rearranged training courses and the schedule of the surgery." Bolei himself was crying and laughing.

"This is really a joke. Since we have compressed the time for two years, we still want to make reasonable arrangements? Why doesn't he just let these students carry their guns and go to the southern forest to exercise."

"Bie, are you sure this is what it means. As a coach, you must be very clear about what shortening the time by two years means."

"Of course, this decision is clearly written in the document. As for the reason, that is the third thing I want to notify." Bei nodded and said.

"Third, the time when the Holy Child and the Holy Lady will meet is nine years later. But the time given to us to prepare is only about seven years. That's why the military will make the above decision. That is to say, whether it is us or The Far Sea Commonwealth or the Flame Alliance are all on the same starting line. After all, every time the red star comes and goes without a trace, there is no pattern to follow. It is lucky and unfortunate to be able to observe its traces so far in advance this time. Bar."

"The good days are not enough, the drudgery is coming again." Some old professors joked with tears and laughter.

"But the existence of the Military School is just for the arrival of this day. Although everyone is resisting it in their hearts." Bolei said, "The last point, the fourth point, is about a student of the First Samsung Academy."

"There is a new notice from the council, requiring our school to make every effort to maintain this student's current condition. If the last twenty days come and he still doesn't wake up. Then, transfer it to Avalon."

Everyone in the council chamber was in an uproar.
