Cold Star Blade

Wu Ningfu, director of the Ordnance Department, is waiting for an important call.

The entire Ordnance Department, as the most important minister in charge of weapons under the command of the Military Command, has always been willing to take advantage of the wind and rain, and has never asked for help. Instead, other directors and directors lined up in the lobby to wait for Wu Ning. My husband favors me.

But things are different now.

Since when is it different?

Wu Ningfu thought of Marshal Ellen's icy face, and almost bit off the cigarette butt in his mouth viciously.

At this time, the phone came in.As if seeing the dawn of hope, Wu Ningfu hurriedly turned on the holographic projection of the fixed port on the desk.

The handsome man with blood-red hair smiled at him in a low-key and polite manner, as if his attitude was very humble: "Director Ninth, I kept you waiting. What's the matter, you are in a hurry to find me?"

Wu Ningfu's eyes were gloomy, and he slammed down the table: "Don't pretend to be stupid! Your things, your channels, your strings, don't you know what happened?"

The red-haired man frowned slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Sorry, Chief Ninth, I've been flying around in distant galaxies recently, and I really don't know what's going on in the Seyrocus constellation, why don't you just tell me directly... By the way, yes It wasn't about the 'Yinxian' accident, the Marshal made things difficult for you again?"

During the call, the holographic image seemed to be really blurred due to the poor signal at a long distance.

Mrs. Wu Ning was furious, and said with a sullen face: "The marshal has indeed embarrassed our chiefs and ministers recently because of the pension. However, I came to you to talk about the last batch of goods! Miyegu , You have done a good job! Relying on your father's backing, you fished me in troubled waters and bullied me, didn't you!"

Miyegu smiled bitterly and said, "Director Ninth, what's going on, don't go around in circles. As I said, if something goes wrong with something I did for you, I will take it all to the end and never dare to drag you down."

Wu Ningfu's expression changed, and the cruelty on his face eased a little. He sneered and said, "There was an accident with that batch of chips! Hero Academy is now going to return the products and ask for compensation, but I can't get in touch with the person you introduced. !"

Miyegu frowned and said, "Director Ninth, I will investigate this matter."

Wu Ningfu said anxiously: "Hurry up! The Hero Academy has put so much energy into this mecha competition. You can imagine how much they valued this opportunity, and your batch of goods was ruined. Contact me now. If they don't, they can't recover the money, so they will report it to me. If this makes..."

Miye Gudao: "Is the accident serious?"

Wu Ningfu snorted and sneered: "Two people were injured, and I paid for the medical expenses! However, their mechs suffered heavy losses, six of them were scrapped, and eighteen of them were paralyzed, and they are still being rescued."

Mi Yegu said: "I'll take care of this matter, Director Ninth, don't worry, I will never let it have anything to do with you."

Wu Ningfu hesitated, and said vaguely: "Your batch of goods..."

"What?" Miyegu asked suspiciously.

Wu Ningfu thought about it. Some things should not be broken. Don't look at Miyegu's respectful look now. Will it turn around and change again?

"Within three days, the Hero Academy must be settled. The marshal has been raising funds everywhere recently, so he is keeping a close eye on it."

Miyegu smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, Director Ninth, I have caused you trouble. I will finish it within three days."

Wu Ningfu was smoking a cigar, sitting in the office and thinking carefully.It seems that Hero Academy can only suffer a little this time.But what about those chips?There has never been a problem in the past, why this batch...

Where did Miyegu find such a person, who can disappear so completely...

Suspicious clouds filled Wu Ningfu's falcon-like eyes with a vicious gleam.His intuition, honed after years of experience in the battlefield, made him understand that this matter would never be so simple.

5 month 18 day.

Greedy wolf star, the giant mech fighting arena.

An ear-splitting cheer resounded over the arena at the moment the fireworks exploded.

The first hand of the empire sang for the opening ceremony, and the huge ring fortress has become a fiery sea of ​​flowers and colored balls flying.

Hundreds of high-altitude camera helicopters circled like a swarm of bees. The media, the Mecha League Association, the wealthy empire, celebrities, critics, and the Military Commission, there is no event like the "Xianying Cup Military Academy Mecha League". Get together.

There are more than a dozen domestic mecha competitions, large and small, in a year, but the one that attracts the most attention and is recognized as the highest level is the Military Academy Mecha League.

Because the best mechs are in the military headquarters and military academies, and in the war years, the most talented pilots are also in the military headquarters and military academies.Civilian modified machine competitions are all small private teams. Of course, it is difficult to compare with those military mech teams sponsored by big manufacturers. The investment in technology development alone is far behind.

Therefore, young pilots who can stand out in the military school aircraft league will surely have a bright future and become all-powerful in the future.

This is evidenced by historical traditions.

The Military Academy Pilot League has lasted for 200 years. Except for a very few champion pilots, all of them have made outstanding contributions on the battlefield.

Among them, the first pilot who held the hegemony for ten consecutive years later became an outstanding military general who opened and ended an era of the empire a hundred years ago. Up to now, he is still the only person who enjoys the honorary title of "Commander of the Three Armies" of the empire.

The second pilot who has been in power for ten consecutive years has become a banner in the military circle during the century of the empire.This person is Kisialian.

Now the only man in the empire with the rank of "Marshal" has also won seven championships in this league.The reason why he didn't continue to become the third ten-game champion was because the war broke out, and this man dropped out of school early and went to the battlefield.

"Today's shining star in the league, tomorrow's light of hope in the military world!"

Looking at the big slogan on the leaflet, Blake read out the next sentence: "The age limit for participation is under 30 years old..."

Empire | The military academy is a 15-year system. Every child of the empire must attend an ordinary academy before the age of 15, and can choose to enter the military academy when he is 15 years old.

If it was 50 years ago, the entry age for military academies was [-]. It can be seen that the continuous war has forced the military service system to lower the age.

Ernie said, "What, don't you want to participate?"

Blake rolled the leaflet into a tube, tapped his palms, and said with a regretful expression that he would not be here at the wrong time, "Why don't you go down to prepare, why do you stay in the auditorium?"

Ernie wandered around with the binoculars in hand, and said, "I want to check how they arranged the shooting spots to see if they can successfully record the video of my game later."

"..." Black despised him, "Young master, if you are a star, you should try to win the championship. Why are you so self-satisfied?"

Ernie glanced at him complainingly, and said, "It's a task assigned by my mother, and I can't help it!"

Black shook his head feebly, and turned to the other side: "Then, Principal Denise, why are you also sitting in the ordinary auditorium here? You should sit in the opposite VIP seat?"

Dinas has a delicate head and is wearing a military uniform. She is quite eye-catching here, attracting countless gazes.She was not surprised by the weather, and smiled calmly: "The atmosphere here is good."

Blake turned to Ernie again: "Come on, lend me the telescope!"

"What are you going to do?!" Ernie's telescope was snatched away by Blake talking to himself, and he sulked while holding his cheek silently.

Blake pointed the binoculars at the VIP seating area on the opposite side, looked at it for a while, and said maliciously to Danas: "As expected, the Marshal is on the opposite side, and he is also looking at you with the binoculars. After the two of you really tear your faces apart, you will die of old age." Is it the kind that does not communicate with each other? Do you want to say hello to him?"

Denise said: "How can you never get in touch with each other? He also asked me to take good care of you. The relationship is really so bad. How could he send you here?" She took the binoculars and looked at the distinguished guest. He held the seat for a while, with a mocking smile on his lips, "Sure enough, the prime minister's granddaughter is sitting next to him."

Black chattered nonchalantly: "Aren't they engaged, they should go out together."

"Not engaged yet." Denasi said, "It's just that the Prime Minister has always acted as if the marshal is already part of their family, and that little bitch has always regarded himself as the marshal's fiancée."

Blake was smoking a cigarette, ready to light it: "I smell the jealousy among women."

Danas is also very generous. She gently hooked the hair next to her ears with her fingers, turned her head and said with a smile, "Don't you think that I and the marshal are the best match? The marshal's family is a hereditary nobleman of the empire for thousands of years. A commoner like my family is not worthy of marrying a marshal."

The law belongs to the law.

Marriage of nobles naturally considers more rights and interests.Not to mention that if the Alpha, Dainas, wants to combine with the marshal, there is no decree that can stop it.

Even if the marshal and Elizabeth, who is an Omega, got married, it definitely wasn't because of obeying the law.

Black smiled: "Man, once you reject a woman, you won't look back. Now that you regret it now, why did you expose the inside story of the marshal?"

This strike seemed to hit Danas sorely. She frowned, bit her lower lip lightly, and said bitterly and helplessly, "No, I didn't want to expose his scandal..."

She put down the binoculars, and there was no sound for a long time.Blake turned his head in surprise, only to see her disappointed face, her resolute and delicately made-up face seemed to be shattered in the breeze, revealing a touch of tenderness and fragility behind the iron-blooded mask...

She smiled bitterly: "At that time, I couldn't help it..."

Blake said casually, "What's the scandal with the marshal?"

Denise squinted at him dumbfounded: "Do you want to know?"

Black said: "I'm so familiar, let's share it."

He goes to Denise's every day to get an injection. For a person who can become friends in one day and be inseparable in three days, these ten days are of course very familiar.

"Then let me tell you..." Denise brought her mouth close to Black's ear, and said softly, "Ellen...he won't raise it."

Blake was noncommittal, and laughed helplessly: "Are you kidding me, if he doesn't lift, it's only because—"

Ernie said: "Is it really okay for you to flirt unscrupulously in front of a minor! Don't abuse the dog!"

"Ah..." Black said, "Principal Denise, I remember you have an Omega brother?"

Denise turned sideways, and said in the frivolous and playful tone of a mature woman facing a young man, "My brother is still single, you—"

Ernie said sullenly, "I want an Omega girl to be my girlfriend! Preferably like Elizabeth!"

Black laughed meanly: "You are obsessed with the marshal, young man, don't be confused between worship and love!"

Ernie pouted angrily: "Playing the piano to the cow, how could Beta understand our alpha male's obsession with the Omega female!"

"This kid will be promising in the future, maybe he can really become the second marshal." Danas smiled.Blake knocked on him with the flyer: "You can go down and prepare, come on, bring back a championship to the teacher!"

It was only the second year that Ernie participated in the competition, but he was very outstanding. In other words, the performance of Suzaku under Blake's adjustment was increased by more than ten times. It was far more flexible and agile than other participating mechs. He performed well in the first stage, and in the official game, he continued to pass all the way and was unstoppable.

On the last day of the four-day competition, he really reached the final.

The final will be held at the Stargate Arena.It's been a tradition.

This arena is of great historical significance—it was originally an ancient hunting ground, belonging to the Gawain family, a powerful family at that time, and the collapse of this family brought an end to an old era.The banner of human rights and equality was revived in this land, and the hunting grounds, which were a symbol of the Gawain family's brutal violence, were toppled.

The first emperor rebuilt the arena on the ruins, which means the opening of a new era.

Another tradition is that before the opening, an air combat exercise will be performed by a military academy.The main purpose is to demonstrate the school's latest mech research and development level.

The four major military academies represent the four major mecha research institutes of the empire, and the school that won the championship in the previous year is eligible to perform in the next year's finals.

Even though it was just a half-hour exercise, it condensed countless business opportunities, profits, ambitions, and the counterbalance of the forces behind it that support the group.

In the 200-year league tradition, the Hero Academy and the Royal Military Academy have always been fierce rivals.

The first legendary man with ten consecutive victories is a student of the Royal Military Academy.

The second legendary man with ten consecutive victories is also a student of the Royal Military Academy.

The third man who almost completed ten consecutive victories was also a student of the Royal Military Academy.

If you want to talk about the achievements of the major military academies in the past 200 years, the Hero Academy has achieved outstanding results, but every time it is mentioned, it will always be followed by the sentence "Unfortunately, it is not as good as the Royal Military Academy". , the two hate each other.

Although they have also produced countless excellent pilots and won countless championships, they just can't compare with others who have produced three legends!

This year, the most powerful pilot of the Hero Academy is about to complete the great feat of ten consecutive hegemony, and the academy has shown a high-spirited momentum, spared no expense, and will show grandly that he has suppressed the Royal Military Academy for ten years!

For the Royal Military Academy, the past ten years was indeed the lowest period in the history of the school. Only this year, they finally reached the final again.

And this is the only chance to stop Hero Academy's ten consecutive championships, of course not to be let go.

Ernie Blake said that in the past two days, he had experienced the feeling of being a mecha star. Even after entering the finals, the school sent the best technicians and instructors of the mecha department to assist him.

But these technicians soon discovered that Suzaku was too well-tuned, and there was no room for them to use it.

The instructor of the team leader came over and asked Ernie: "Who helped you adjust your mech so well? It doesn't look like it was made by a student."

Ernie felt that he had a unique vision. Wasn't he the one who asked Mr. Black for help?He proudly said: "Thanks to Teacher Black, he helped me complete most of the optimization."

There was a reporter nearby waiting for a pre-match interview. Hearing this, the cameraman had a keen sense of smell and asked the cameraman to focus the lens.

Ernie was a little nervous in front of the camera, and his tone immediately became very official: "He is a new teacher in our mecha department. I didn't expect him to be so powerful at first. It was purely a coincidence that I asked him for help. His technical level is really amazing. Surprised me..."

The instructor interrupted: "Wait, are you talking about Mr. Jon Black, who has only been in the military academy for less than a month?"

Ernie said: "Yes, he seems to be the marshal's confidant. I think he and the marshal should be very good friends. When he was adjusting Suzaku, he often discussed with me what the marshal's red rose is like..."

In the stands outside, Black, who was watching the live broadcast with his optical brain in his hand, rubbed his temples violently, thinking: "Oh no, I taught him so many mecha skills, why did I just forget to teach him how to deal with interviews..."

The reporter's eyes lit up when he heard it, this is incredible, any topic that can have a little bit of relationship with the marshal will immediately be on the hot search!

"You said that the marshal has a close friend who is a teacher at the Royal Military Academy? How familiar is he with the marshal? Does he know Hongmei well? What topics has he discussed with you about Hongmei?"

These questions are obviously overwhelming, but Marshal's mecha Flaming Red Rose is naturally the dream lover of all mecha lovers in the empire, who still cares about Suzaku at this time.

Ernie blushed and had a heartbeat, and found that the more he talked, the more he couldn't control his mouth: "He said a lot about Hongmei's combat performance, I think he knows Hongmei very well, and even suspected that he might have adjusted Hongmei... "

In the VIP seat area, the Marshal, who was also watching the live broadcast with an optical computer, accidentally dropped the pen in his hand, and his eyes stopped on Ernie's interview, and it was difficult to divert.

Elizabeth beside her picked up the pen, handed it to him, and said, "You still have a friend like Yalian? Why haven't I heard you say it..."

"Maybe they are comrades-in-arms who fought side by side?" In the picture, the shy teenager continued, "But this is just my wild guess—"

Suddenly, Ernie stopped talking.

His pupils suddenly narrowed——
