Monarch of Evernight

At dawn, the ship began to drop significantly in altitude. Destination is almost here.

This Qin Lu's largest military city ranks third throughout the Empire.

A dawn of dawn came in and shone on his face at night. He actually woke up a long time ago and jumped out of the cab lightly and looked out at the side of the starboard window.

In front of us is the tilted earth, flooding the horizon of the steel city as if it were going to be reversed at any moment.

The most visible in view is a tall tower in the heart of the city, gleaming with silver and white, spitting cloudy white steam at its top. The base of the tall tower is incredibly spacious and covers three or four blocks.

It was the first time in a thousand nights that we saw the heart of a people's city, the Tower of Eternity. The cheapest black stone, the cheapest steel, is built as a miraculous perpetual tower that runs day and night, supplying energy for the entire city.

The cargo floats slowly crossed from the southwest of the city, and the spacecraft in the airspace ahead slowly increased in many different styles, several of which were light boats with sophisticated and complex bow relief.

It turns out that there are too many spacecraft applying to enter the port and they have to queue up and the cargo boats begin to circle in the sky. From the coarseness and complaints of the drivers, it was learned that in addition to public passenger carriers, cargo boats, there are many more private airships today, the emblems of the boat's bow, one symbol of tremendous power and vast wealth.

Xiangyang is one of the permanent sites of the Imperial Ministry of Military Recruitment, attracting tens of thousands of young people from all sides every year at this time. This year has been particularly crowded, with noble brothers, as there are two huge extras on the list of recruits: Folding Angels and Red Scorpions.

The Daqin Empire's extremely heavy military service, even the valves of the great clan, is a shortcut for the middle-class children of the clan to join the military service. Access to special regiments is almost synonymous.

Folding angels and red scorpions have never been in the top five of the Empire's hundreds of special regiments. It was their recruitment that inspired many valves and sent the best sons of the people to participate in the assessment.

The floating boat on board the thousand nights gained a relatively forward entry position due to its affiliation with the military. He waited until he landed to feel the day of conscription.

The base of the ship, which should be just one of the traffic haunts, is already packed with people of all colours in the morning, mostly young people around the age of twenty, a confident, vibrant and hopeful place. Outside the base, a wide variety of land transport vehicles have set up dragons.

Stonehenge launched the overload truck, which, even in many vehicles, was quite a big guy, coming out of the military corridor. Xiangyang is the third largest military city in the empire, with special military access routes in addition to half of the city's neighborhoods being military-controlled areas, whether ground roads or air navigation lanes.

Looking out the window at night, the route they were travelling was a military zone, which added a lot of decor to the architectural style on both sides, but still remained rigid and dignified, compared to Yellow Springs training camp, which spoke only of utility and beauty.

At the end of the road, the recruit battalion can be seen far from the arch where the long enrollment has been discharged.

In a noisy crowd, Shi Yan shouted to the officer in charge of the registration: “I'm going directly to the review area! ”

He showed his identification, entered the camp directly with a thousand nights, proceeded to register him, and handed over a copper nameplate representing his identity to the thousand nights. The nameplate was mechanically pressed out of Lin Qiannight.

Looking at the inscription on the nameplate, there is an unspeakable feeling in the heart of the thousand nights. For the first time in his life, he felt he belonged. The inscription is not only branded on the nameplate, but also on his heart.

Next, a soldier took him into the inner battalion for a thousand nights. The inner battalion is an appraisal area, and stone words cannot go in.

It wasn't until we walked into the inner barracks that we realized that the barracks were much bigger than they looked out the door.

Thousands of young people who have passed the initial screening of basic qualities have been placed in various barracks according to the number on the nameplate. Tomorrow is the day of the official appraisal, and today they will take a day off in order to achieve the best possible standards.

Many young people arrive by car or even by passenger boat, and all these public transport vehicles for the vast majority of the civilian population are powered by black stone steam, a common feature of which is noise and turbulence. Such long trips are very painstaking and have a great impact on their physical fitness and naturally affect exam performance.

The empire has always been fair-minded in terms of examinations involving the army and rarely gives special attention to the children of the valves.

It is also the very foundation of the empire. Otherwise, an incompetent dude would be a disaster if he took troops to the battlefield. The Dark Race kills people, it doesn't matter what your status is.

There are a total of three exams for Imperial Recruitment, namely Force, Martial Arts and Gun Use.

After supper, the candidates were driven back to their dormitories to bed. Thousands of nights have become accustomed to obeying orders, the lights go to bed as soon as they are turned off, and soon fall asleep. But the other candidates in the dorm were excited and nervous and couldn't sleep. Two young people from the same remote city chatted in silence.

After a long time, a thousand sleeping nights suddenly palpitated and opened his eyes immediately. There was no movement on the surface of his body, and virtually all his muscles were tightened so that he could start killing anytime, while his eyes just opened a gap and quietly looked around.

At this moment, a middle-aged man's face appeared in the window of the door in horror, looking at the crowd in the room with no expression!

But nobody noticed this middle-aged man except for a thousand nights! One candidate glanced through the window, but it looked like he didn't see it at all.

The middle-aged man suddenly glanced at the thousand nights and turned away.

It was not until after he disappeared that the thousand nights recovered from the horror. But this time, he couldn't sleep.

A moment later, a less than astonishing middle-aged man left the dormitory and went into another building. When he finished walking through all the dormitories, he had a thick stack of lists in his hand, with most of the names followed by an X. Only a few names were marked with numbers, ranging from 1 to 9.

Next to the name of Thousand Nights is an asterisk. Only fourteen of the thick names on the list were marked with this mark.

Thousands of nights did not know, he accidentally passed the first level.

The next morning, the thrilling bell woke all candidates out of their sleep. As the crowd rushes out of the barracks, stand in line on the playground. Here, the examinees are divided into three groups, which then take different examinations.

The Thousand Nights group will first take a shooting test for a Force Firearm.

All the exam-specific force guns assigned to the candidates were greatly reduced in power and consequently reduced in force consumption. Even first-degree soldiers can fire six or seven shots in a row. Only in this way will they be able to complete all the exam subjects. If you replace a regular force gun, even the most basic of the first-degree guns, it will be difficult to complete the full range of shooting subjects, even if the heavy concentrated force far exceeds that of its peers at a thousand nights.

After examining the rifle, he stood in front of the firing line with nine other candidates at night. Ten fixed targets were raised 100 meters away, all in the image of human spider demons.

While familiarizing himself with the weapon and waiting for the shooting order, a young man on the left of the thousand nights looked at him and suddenly grabbed his crotch and whistled, "Boy, have you ever played with a gun? ”

With his eyebrow squeezing expression, this is a phrase with a double tie, extremely obscene provocation.

Thousand nights I looked at him and said faintly, “I haven't played, but I've had a couple of pinches. You want to try them? ”

The young man suddenly exaggerated and laughed and said, "I'm so scared! Boy, do you know who I am? Talk to me like that? ”

“Whoever you are, you won't get an extra score, will you?” Question calmly at night.

The young man's face swelled red and angry: "Arrogant, boy! But don't talk nonsense, the Empire Nation, not so shameless yet, will do it in this kind of exam! Since I look at you badly, of course I want to win clean and beautiful! ”

“Beat me? You can't do it.” Thousand Nights is still the kind of light-hearted, angry maniac.

The young man's face sank immediately, "So let's gamble? ”

He picked his eyebrows and said, "What's the bet? Too small for me! ”

The young man reached out and pulled off the necklace and carried it in front of the thousand nights. The necklace is silver with a thumb-sized square at the end and an eagle engraved on it.

The young man said, "Use the results of this exam to gamble! If I lose, this thing is yours! ”

Reaching out his hand for a thousand nights, he twisted the little sign curiously and asked: “How do I use this thing?” Listening to his breath, it is clear that the necklace has been taken as part of the bag.

The young man was so angry at the moment that he laughed, “Do you really think you won? ”

Thousand Nights nods seriously: "Of course.” And then I asked, “How does this thing work? ”

The young man hated itching at the root of his teeth and said angrily: "This is my letter! You take this and you can make a request to my family. I can satisfy you within my authority, no matter what the requirements are! ”

At this time, the other candidates also noticed an argument between the two and looked forward to it. They all noticed the eagle on the square and immediately someone changed their face, apparently recognizing the crest.

“It's the Wei family!” Someone whispered.

When he heard the whispers of the people around him, the young man immediately cheered up and raised his chin, a small cock of frenzy.

But the thousand nights didn't respond as he expected, just a sound, and then measured the young man's gaze with more suspicion. It's too obvious: how much authority can you have as a bear?

The young man was angry again and shouted, “Do you want to bet? ”

The thousand nights finally nodded: “Bet. ”

Young people don't talk much anymore, they put up their guns and waited quietly for the exam to begin.

It's time for the exam. After a whistle, all 10 candidates started to take a serious aim with a force gun.

Most Force guns do not have a good shooting accuracy and it is easy to hit targets 100 meters away, but it is very difficult to hit the center of the target. The target center region can get 100 rings, but only the nail cap size. If it falls outside the center of the target, there are at most 80 rings. This is how all types of targets score.

Shortly thereafter, gunshots were fired. A fine red light struck the target, the metal target swayed, and a small hole was drilled in the upper part of a person's high target. This gun has a lot of power, but it's not very precise. It's barely a target.

“Twenty rings!” The examiner whispered the target, while the other took note of the score.

The gunshots rang in order, all eight of them were targeted, but the highest one also had only 50 rings. Between the eyes, there are only young people and thousands of nights left without shooting.

The young man had been looking at him for a long time, and had been watching him for thousands of nights. In the eyes of the thousand nights, young people always feel a little restless. As soon as he pulls the trigger, his heart screams terrible!
