Section 529 - A Chance
The central part of the Slan Empire has entered a period of continuous rain in late summer and early autumn, but the northern mountainous areas are getting colder, especially the vast snow-capped mountains that are called "Highlands of the Underworld" by the locals.
The "guillotine" base has begun to become deserted, not because it is not without popularity, but compared with the beginning of its establishment, in addition to the "Shenglong" parts production line and assembly line, there are also the "Shenglong" Legion's First and Second Fleets flying training.
After the two wings formed by the first batch of elite Sky Knights left the "guillotine" base one after another, the remaining people with slightly inferior talent and qualifications did not follow the previous 200-hour basic flight training time as the standard graduation class. Instead, they changed a more meticulous and strict flight training standard, so that the graduation rate of qualified Sky Knights became increasingly difficult.
The six-degree-of-freedom installation flight simulator, which had been roaring from morning to night, can no longer be seen in the long queues of air knight trainees preparing to train on the plane.
In fact, no new Air Knight trainees have arrived at the "guillotine" base during this period. Other trainees who have not graduated have long passed the simulator stage and entered the training courses to learn various air combat skills and tactics in the trainer.
A thin black shadow stood in the corner and stared at the giant creature as big as a house. He swallowed, as if he had gathered the courage to walk over slowly.
"Yele! What are you doing? Stay away from that thing!"
A stern shout came from another part of the tall and spacious rock hall.
"ah!"
The thin figure immediately stopped moving, turned his head mechanically, and responded bitterly: "Dad!"
"You bastard, don't you want to live anymore? Can you touch the things here casually?"
Wearing an open-breasted jacket, the steaming man in the North Xinjiang strode over and stretched out his rough hands to carry his son away from this huge assembly like an eagle catching a chicken.
"Yeqi, I'm scolding my son! Haha, it's more than the first time I've seen Yere secretly look at this big guy. Well, little guy, are you very interested?!"
An officer passing by happened to see this scene. The father and son can be regarded as one of the few familys in the "guillotine" base, especially the young man, who is also a celebrity in the base.
It is difficult for people to climb to the "guillotine" with bare hands.
Although both father and son both have the pronunciation of the word "ye" in their names, it does not mean that they are surnames. Since civilians are not qualified to have surnames, some active civilians take out a pronunciation from their names and add them to their children's names to represent the bloodline.
"interested in!"
The young man shouted with joy. The burly man from Beijiang frowned, grabbed his son and shook hard, shouting: "Don't talk nonsense in front of adults!"
He turned around and bent down to respectfully say to the emperor, "Instructor Shabalong, my son is too naughty, please don't take it to heart. I will teach him a good lesson and never come here to play again."
"I didn't lie!"
The boy lowered his head awkwardly. After staying in this dangerous base for so long, he had quietly inquired about the purpose of this huge assembly.
Whether you want to become a "Shenglong" air knight or a more powerful and noble dragon knight, you must pass the test of this flight simulator to have the possibility of going further into your dreams.
"You still said!"
The father waved his fist as big as a sand bowl at his son. He was all this little bastard who secretly followed the family and bravely climbed into the imperial ** base. His family was forced to move in.
Fortunately, the Emperor** and the Dragon Knights were kind-hearted, otherwise the reckless actions of this bastard boy might have caused the family to be destroyed.
The life of a hunter is gone. He can only be a laborer here to make a stable meal, and his wife has a job of squeezing and washing. The family of three is much more stable than before. At least he still has new clothes on his body and eats well.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. Anyway, this built-in flight simulator is idle, so we should find something for the alchemists responsible for maintaining it. They are not getting their wages in vain. How could I arrange a basic test for your son? How could someone who can climb the 'guillotine' be an ordinary person?!"
Sabalong had no idea of prosecuting or being angry. After the young man in front of him climbed into this dangerous place alone, there were quite a few guys in the army who did not believe in evil thought that he was not inferior to a hunter boy in the northern border. He tried to climb up from the foot of the mountain many times. Although he was protected by a steel cable, he failed without exception.
Since the other party’s family is at the “guillotine” base and is also a well-known local household, it is better to give a chance to do a test, which can be regarded as a way to fulfill this magical boy’s wish, so as not to worry about this big guy all day long.
"How can this work?"
The other party's attitude made the Northern Xinjiang hunter father stunned and murmured to himself: "What if this kid breaks this big guy? I can't afford to pay."
I really don’t know where the curiosity came from. As I said that, I glared at my son again and pulled him behind me.
If you want to become a Dragon Knight, you don’t even see if you have the fate. It’s better to be a hunter or a big soldier, save a few more years of family fortune, marry a woman who can give birth to her, and live your life safely.
Such a monotonous and mediocre view of survival represents the ideas of the vast majority of civilians in the northern border.
"Don't worry, this equipped flight simulator is not that easy to break! It's also an opportunity anyway, it's a pity to miss it."
Instructor Sabalon smiled at Yere behind his father and kept squeezing his eyes quietly. The boy's eyes were excited and almost shining.
"Ah! ~ Uh, this, this..." The simple hunter father sneered a few times, not knowing whether to agree or refuse. He turned around and saw his son's joyful and begging gaze, and his heart couldn't help but soften.
Just like him, being a hunter or a laborer for the rest of his life, or becoming a remarkable master of the Sky Knight, perhaps it was just the thought of him as a father.
Who doesn’t want their children to have great prospects? As the other party said, once this opportunity is missed, it will not be found again in the future.
Sabalong shrugged at the somewhat cramped and nervous man in the North. To him, providing this test opportunity was nothing more than a trivial effort, perhaps just not wanting the alchemists to rust.
"Okay, okay! ~ Thank you for the promotion of Instructor Sabahlon!"
A man from Beijiang who had never seen anything great in his life hesitated for a moment and finally nodded vigorously. For him, this was a really difficult decision.
"Babe, that's great! Haha, thank you Lord Shabalong!"
The boy jumped up while on the spot and waved his fist hard.
"Then I'm determined. You'll come here at this time tomorrow! Well, I have something to do, let's leave first! Have a good rest tonight and accumulate enough energy tomorrow! Do you understand?"
Sabalong seemed to be infected by the boy's joyful reaction, so he raised his thumbs up and made an encouragement gesture at the other party, and then left the father and son who were in excitement.
The next day.
Next to the six-degree of freedom flight simulator, there were two low-level alchemists wearing military robes. The large-scale structure that had been silent for a long time made a buzzing sound, and was in a self-test and heat engine.
"Sir Sabahlon!"
Accompanied by his parents, the young man Yerei came to the rock hall where the flight simulator was located.
"It's just the right time, let's start early!"
Sabalong, who was paying attention to checking and debugging the installation flight simulator before starting the installation, and a young trainee turned around and greeted the family of three.
"Yes, sir!"
The young man who had specially changed into new clothes saluted respectfully.
"It's time to start!"
One of the two alchemists who were ready to make a gesture to Sabalong.
The door of the test cabin was opened. Yeqi and his wife watched nervously as their son got into the narrow and dark cabin. They wanted to say something, but something was blocked in their throat, and they couldn't make a sound even if a syllable was sounded.
"Cen You, I'll leave it to you here!"
Sabalong patted the trainee's shoulder beside him, turned his head and looked at Yere's parents who refused to move their eyes from the flight simulator for a moment, saying, "Sorry, my flight teaching class is about to begin. I'll ask Cen You here. If you have any questions, you can ask him."
"Thank you sir!"
Yere and his wife were filled with gratitude when the other party was able to give their son a rare opportunity.
"Don't worry, instructor!"
The young trainee was clamped with a writing splint under his arm and was ready to record the test results.
In fact, the complete standard Air Knight trainee test program is not only the item of building a flight simulator, but also includes other detailed subjects. Instructor Sabalong only used the power in his hands to satisfy the curiosity of this magical boy, and did not really treat him as a trainee.
"The first phase begins..."
At this time, the alchemist in front of the console began to push off the first push rod, and the large assembly began to move slowly and made huge noise.
Using a "Shenglong" propeller fighter as a background reference, there are two rectangular dark green blackboards on the left and right. Sabalong held the instructor's version of the textbook in one hand, and wrote and painted on the blackboard with a talc pen, carefully explaining the battle principles of the Air Knight to the forty trainees sitting neatly in front of him.
"Report!"
The loud notification interrupted the lecture of instructor Sabahlon, and everyone looked at it together.
"Instructor Sabalon, you'd better have a look at this!"
A young trainee shook his hand and wrote a plywood.
Chapter completed!
