Chapter 1150 The First Legion
Ripple successfully graduated from the First Academy at the age of forty, and was then recommended by Rand to serve in the First Legion of the Interstellar Federation.
The First Legion is the first joint army established after the formal establishment of the Interstellar Alliance. It is also the army with the highest casualty rate among the nine legions. Because the First Army is only responsible for combat, soldiers of the First Legion can be seen in both local battles and large-scale conflicts.
After entering the First Legion, as long as you make steady progress, you can be promoted based on your military merits, but your achievements are accompanied by high risks. Generally, fresh graduates rarely go directly to the First Legion, and usually serve in the Seventh, Eighth, or Ninth Legions.
These three legions are mainly responsible for garrison and patrol within the Interstellar Alliance, and as the front-line material support, the risks are relatively low.
Ripple was recommended by Rand to join the First Legion. Another reason was that her achievements and all-round development advantages gave her the basic conditions to become a commander. To truly grow into a combat commander, she must have actual combat experience. The First, Second and Third Legions have the most opportunities for actual combat, especially the First Legion.
Lianyi entered the military directly after graduation. Because of her excellent grades, she was awarded the rank of major. Compared with her classmates, her starting point was a level higher.
It was a month later when Lianyi arrived at the First Legion’s base on a logistics transport ship with all her belongings.
After the spaceship landed, Lianyi reported to the military headquarters according to Xiaoliu's instructions.
After ten years of study, Lianyi's temperament has changed. She is now 1.85 meters tall, which is tall among women. Her appearance has not changed much, but has become more refined.
In order to facilitate movement, Lianyi cut her hair short and put on a well-fitting black military uniform, making her look more heroic.
Tornado stood on Lianyi's shoulder, watching the soldiers coming and going on the First Legion's playground, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.
Lianyi found the personnel department of the First Legion and sent her service notice to them. After the beautiful officer in the personnel department checked her genetic map, she began to process various procedures for her and sent her all the precautions of the First Legion.
"Major Lianyi, you came at the wrong time. There have been conflicts at the interstellar border these past two days, so the fighting has never stopped. There have been more than ten conflicts of varying sizes this month. I guess you'll be on the front line soon, so you'd better get yourself into the best physical condition possible."
"Yes, I understand."
Lianyi responded readily.
"Okay, you can go get your mecha first, as well as your star beast's protective armor."
The beautiful military officer clicked on the light screen several times and sent all the codes to Lianyi.
"Okay, thank you."
The enlistment procedures went smoothly. Lianyi spent another hour collecting her rations and then went to her temporary residence.
On the way, they met many retreating soldiers, as well as a large number of body chambers and treatment chambers. Lianyi immediately stopped and saluted, which was a respect for the victims.
After Lianyi followed Xiaoliu's instructions and found her residence, she discovered that half of the floor was basically empty. The other half was occupied by mostly male officers. These people looked at the young-looking Lianyi with a sidelong glance, especially when they saw the rank of major on her shoulder.
Lianyi didn't care about all that. She checked her own nest first. After settling Tornado, she asked Xiaoliu to try to connect to the First Legion's star network.
"The base's star network has been connected, and the training cabin is ready for use at any time. However, there is still a part of the encrypted area. Do you want me to go in and take a look?"
Xiaoliu asked tentatively.
"Not for now. It will be troublesome if you are discovered."
After thinking about it, Lianyi rejected Xiaoliu's proposal.
"All right!"
Xiao Liu felt a little regretful. This was a military star network, which was faster and provided more complete information, but its defense level was also higher and it was not so easy to crack. Since Lianyi disagreed, he did not dare to act rashly.
After Lianyi drank a tube of nutrient solution to fill her stomach, she lay down in the training cabin, then entered the holographic world and went to the place where she and Kou Ji often gathered.
The sign of "There is a Tavern" is very eye-catching. Ripple uses her original face in the holographic world and her name is Ripple True Lord, which makes it convenient for her to fight on the Star Network.
When I walked into the private room of the tavern, Kou Ji and Xinghe had already arrived and were whispering something. When they saw Lianyi, they immediately greeted her happily.
"Lian Yi, have you arrived at the First Legion?"
"Well, I just finished the formalities and will be at work tomorrow. I still have most of the day to rest. I don't know if I will have time to contact you later, so I came up to say hello to you first."
"I am here to take over the mission of guarding a satellite planet. It is not located at the interstellar border, so it is safer."
Xinghe immediately told about his situation.
"I have been assigned to the Star Beast Combat Team. I am currently a reserve member. I will only be on the field when there are casualties in the team."
Kouji then said.
"Then you should be careful. I saw a group of soldiers being evacuated when I arrived today. They suffered heavy casualties. The fighting on the front line should be quite intense."
Ripples revealed some appropriately.
"I see. We are able to be assigned to the rear-line legion, which gives us some buffer. But it's different for you. You may end up on the front line someday, so you have to be careful."
"I know that the ten years of study and training were not in vain."
Lian Yi was very calm.
"There is one more thing. Wu Tianxing's family is trying to get him into the First Legion. Maybe you two will have a chance to meet."
Kouji suddenly said.
"Him? The Wu family is willing to send their talented disciple to the First Legion? It's safer for him to advance step by step like him."
Ripple said, raising an eyebrow.
"Military merit is not easy to earn. If it is as you said, he will have to endure for at least 150 years before he can achieve any results. But it will be different after he joins the First Legion. As long as he dares to take risks and fight hard, he may be promoted to a higher rank after the ten-year service period."
Xinghe could understand the Wu family's approach. It was a rare opportunity, so it was normal for the Wu family to want to seize it.
"I know about this. The First Legion is huge, with millions of people. I may not be able to meet him. I'll see when I meet him."
Lian Yi said indifferently.
"Lianyi, we have received an emergency assembly notice. You are required to assemble at the third square immediately."
Xiaoliu immediately forwarded an emergency assembly message to Lianyi.
"Sorry, I have to have an emergency meeting here, so I'll log off first. If you have anything, send me a message and Xiaoliu will tell me."
Lianyi said and disappeared in front of Kouji and Xinghe.
The two looked at each other, Kou Ji swallowed hard and said:
"Lianyi can't be so unlucky, right? She has to go to the battlefield on the first day of reporting."
"We'd better pray that she comes back safely."
Xinghai said with a sigh.
After Lianyi left the training cabin, she immediately changed into a pure black advanced combat uniform and left the residence with her equipment and Tornado.
Many officers rushed to the assembly point with her, and half of the people left on their floor had left.
When Lianyi arrived at the third square, there were already at least five thousand people gathered there.
See you tomorrow, my dears~
