Chapter 179 Graduation Party
Author: Nantian Lake
There are many pioneers entering the base today.
Many of them are like Tu Ran and the other three, looking dusty.
Opposite them were the new generation of pioneers, who were wearing brand-new, straight combat uniforms and meticulously combed hairstyles.
They are all eighteen or nineteen years old.
In her world, it was just the time to graduate from high school and enter college.
Each of their faces has hopes and imagination for the future, as well as the lofty ambition to be famous throughout the federation.
The banquet hall was transformed from the usual training ground.
The lights shine, as bright as day.
Tu Ran and the other three found seats specially arranged for previous pioneers and sat down.
There are seats for about 500 people in this area, but only less than half of them are occupied. Half of them are still within the threshold, and some have been assigned to other states and cannot come back. Those present now are from several neighboring states.
.
The crowd was scattered scattered.
Compared with the bustling and crowded scene in the area where the protagonists live today, it seems very lonely and lonely.
On the high platform and luxurious seats in the training ground, there are some leadership-level figures sitting.
There were men and women, each of them brightly dressed and with a radiant face.
Looking at the pioneers in the audience, there was a smile of joy from the bottom of my heart.
Can you not laugh? Tu Ran thought secretly.
So many more people are willing to sacrifice their lives for them.
If it were her, she would be able to wake up laughing even while sleeping.
Tu Ran saw Xie Zhao in that row of people.
He sits in the middle.
After all, he is the commander-in-chief of the pioneer team. He has single-handedly promoted the pioneer team from proposal to establishment to official operation and achieved results. It is not an exaggeration to sit in the main seat.
At this moment, the host of the party is inviting him to give a speech.
No matter which world we are in, there will always be such nonsense processes.
Fortunately, they arrived more than half an hour late, and Xie Zhao was the last one to speak, making his appearance the finale.
The training ground was quiet.
There is no restlessness like when the previous few people spoke.
Everyone sat down peacefully.
Everyone still respects Xie Zhao, the commander-in-chief.
"The previous instructors talked a lot and tried to boost everyone's morale. I won't repeat the same thing. I want to say something different."
He paused and looked towards the seats of the first pioneers where Tu Ran and the other three were sitting.
There are only a few people there.
"Not many pioneers came in the last session." He suddenly said, as if talking to himself.
Following his words, the second pioneers all looked this way.
Only then did I notice these seniors who looked exhausted.
"Do you know why so few people came?" Xie Zhao turned his attention back to the eighteen or nineteen-year-old boys and girls in front of him.
"No time?" A young man in the audience answered loudly.
Xie Zhao chuckled, "This is one of the reasons, they are really busy."
"Don't bother to come back?" A girl stood up.
Her words resonate with others.
Indeed, it's just a graduation party, nothing to see.
Once they become official pioneers and leave the training base, there will be no rules to restrict them. They can go wherever they want to play in their spare time from work. Who wants to waste time coming back to attend the graduation party?
"This reason...may also exist," Xie Zhao's voice became quieter, "but it is not the main reason."
"What is the main reason?" someone asked curiously.
"In the past five years, the instructors have exposed you to all positive things, given you unlimited hope, and made you trust your profession. I believe that the title of pioneer will bring you supreme glory and that your future will be bright."
bright."
"But we never told you how the last generation of pioneers are doing now."
"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 touch even after countless trainings, it's the longest distance of 3460m for long-range sniping, it's the super-high fighting skills of one person challenging all fighting instructors for 35 minutes without defeat, it's
The longest record of an AR alien being hiding and escaping for 27 days, the shortest record of running 40 kilometers with a heavy load, etc., and there are many more.”
The venue was quiet, and everyone was listening carefully, immersed in Xie Zhao's voice, and immersed in every detail of the past five years of training.
"There are some records that you have surpassed, and there are some records that you have not yet touched."
"In addition to the data that you know, there are also some data that you have never heard of, which I have concealed."
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 and clenched their hands unconsciously. Although they did not know what the commander-in-chief would say next, the excitement and anxiety about the unknown made them look forward to Xie Zhaokuai.
Go on.
"The number of graduates of the first class of pioneers, 2,261."
"As of the graduation day of the second class of pioneers, which is today, the number of remaining personnel will be determined, 576."
"The number of dead is determined, 134."
"The number of people who have exceeded the threshold twice and have not left the threshold is 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 the mortality rate is 95%.
There was dead silence in the audience.
So, in this whole year, nearly half of the seniors from the previous class died.
They were so good and so many people died, but what about them?
Everyone's heart shuddered.
Xie Zhao didn't stop.
"The number of people who were seriously injured and unconscious and now show no signs of waking up, 16 people."
"There are 514 people not included. They just entered the threshold yesterday. Their life and death are unknown. We need to wait for them to come back before we can update the data."
"There is also a piece of data, which is the statistics of the medical department's visits to the medical department by the pioneers of our pioneer team this year."
"Let me briefly read some data to you."
"The nutrition cabin is used an average of three times per person."
"You may not know much about nutrition cabins," Xie Zhao raised his head and explained, "The use of nutrition cabins is expensive. In most cases, it is only used when the injury is life-threatening or there are more important matters that need to be dealt with quickly.
The medical department will only recommend the use of nutrition cabins when repairing wounds."
Hearing this, Tu Ran narrowed her eyes. Is it true?
She has used the nutrition cabin several times recently simply because of her quick recovery and because she has one year of free use, so she doesn't have to use it in vain. She went there with this mentality.
But the first time she used the nutritional cabin was actually recommended by the doctor at the medical department.
She didn't have anything urgent to deal with at the time.
It could only be because the injury was serious.
She was knocking the back of her head.
She remembered that it only hurt slightly.
I didn't expect it to be so serious.
Xie Zhao kept reading the data.
