The Black Flag Squadron belongs to the 35th Mecha Squadron of the 7th Fast Anti-Response Fleet, numbered 001.
The 35th Mecha Squadron has three mecha squads. The Black Flag Squadron is the core force and has always been the vanguard of the squadron, so it has the highest battle loss rate.
Wang Chen, who newly joined the team, took over the role of the ranger of the Black Flag team.
In the mecha squad, rangers are very special beings. They are positioned as free men in the team and as hunters on the battlefield. They are independent individuals and are not entirely under the command of the captain.
In terms of authority, rangers are only half a level behind squad leaders, on par with deputy captains, and higher than ordinary team members.
In the tactical system, the rangers have a very high degree of freedom and can decide their position according to the combat situation.
Either support and assist, or charge into battle, the advance and retreat are basically under your own control.
Due to the special nature of the role, the Rangers must be played by elite pilots, so that they can truly become a support to the team rather than a hindrance.
This is why Lieutenant Carter was so angry when he first saw Wang Chen.
They are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but they are afraid of teammates who are like pigs. If the Rangers are pigs, then it is entirely possible to drag down the Black Flag team to death.
But when he learned that Wang Chen was an A-level warrior, his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.
After the simple welcome procedure was completed, Lieutenant Carter first introduced Wang Chen to the other nine members of the Black Flag Team.
What surprised Wang Chen was that there were actually two female pilots in this mecha team!
Of course, women can serve as fighter divisions, but it is limited to physical factors. The number of female fighter divisions is very small. They mostly play sniper or command roles.
Among the two female pilots of the Black Flag team, one is a sniper and the other is an assault warrior. The latter is tall and burly, with very strong muscles, and is not inferior to any of her teammates in terms of physique.
In comparison, the sniper is much petite and cute.
But Wang Chen will not underestimate him, because the participation rate of the seventh anti-ship fleet is quite high, and no pilot who can join the black flag team will be a weakling!
On the other hand, the members of the Black Flag Team were more curious about Wang Chen, the new ranger.
Everyone can't imagine that such a young Wang Chen has passed the A-level combat practitioner certification.
And he is not yet a nobleman.
If you look at the entire seventh anti-ship fleet, you won't be able to find another genius like this!
Of course, since it has not been tested in actual combat, the members of the Black Flag Team cannot be said to be in awe of Wang Chen.
His prestige in the team still needs time to be established.
Afterwards, Lieutenant Carter personally took Wang Chen to visit various facilities in the camp and arranged his dormitory.
The conditions in the military camp dormitories are definitely not comparable to those in the academy, but pilots all start as non-commissioned officers, and the benefits they can enjoy are definitely much better than those of ordinary soldiers.
Wang Chen's dormitory is about forty square meters, with one bedroom, one living room, and one bathroom. The equipment inside is not luxurious, but it has everything that should be there, but most of it is old.
But considering this is inside a battlestar, these conditions are pretty good.
"Sergeant Wang Chen, according to regulations, you have three days of rest."
Lieutenant Carter said to him: "First get familiar with the internal situation of tK043. After all, this is your new home."
Wang Chen nodded: "Thank you, sir."
"You are welcome."
Lieutenant Carter waved his hand and said: "We will be comrades in arms from now on. On the battlefield, military rank is not important."
Wang Chen felt that the other party's reason was there, but he didn't get to the bottom of it.
After Lieutenant Carter left, Wang Chen logged into Xinghai Network in his dormitory and sent messages to Mingmei and Tang Mi.
The three of them have their own private group, and it is very convenient to communicate through the Internet.
In fact, if Wang Chen was just an ordinary taxi
Soldiers, even sergeant-level pilots, do not have permission to access the external network in the military camp and can only operate within the internal network of the battle fortress.
But his status as an A-level warrior gives him such authority!
And because he can use the Xinghai network normally, even though Wang Chen and his two girlfriends are hundreds of light years apart, there is no problem in communicating with each other.
You can even play the most intimate fully immersive games.
In the next two days, Wang Chen walked around tK043 and gained the most intuitive understanding of this space fortress.
Although tK043 is a military facility, it is actually a large space city where a large number of military personnel live, as well as personnel who provide services to the garrison and fleet.
There are all kinds of buildings such as hotels and shopping malls, and there are even gymnasiums and amusement parks. Apart from floating in space, they are not much different from cities on the ground.
Three days passed by in a flash, and Wang Chen officially began his military career.
He got a fighting machine that was truly his own.
The Spb17 mecha code-named "Phoenix".
Spb17 is a standard medium-sized mecha equipped with two pc5600 engines with a total mass of nearly ten tons. It is equipped with a 150-meter high-energy particle cannon and two 70-caliber close-range laser cannons.
And a super wave ship-cutting knife.
The Phoenix mecha is characterized by high attack speed and low defense. It is an agile combat mecha. It is widely equipped in the Imperial Army. It is a very mature model that has experienced countless battles.
Wang Chen had piloted this type of mecha at the combat training base, so he quickly became familiar with it. It only took him a few days to start participating in the daily training of the Black Flag Team.
And quickly integrated into the team.
While mastering the mecha, Wang Chen also became familiar with the members of the Black Flag Team.
Then everyone discovered that this talented pilot had no airs, never showed off his status as an A-class combatant, and quite obeyed Lieutenant Carter's orders during training.
This made everyone like Wang Chen, and after the training, they invited him to have a drink with him at the bar in the base.
The total number of combat personnel and logistics teams of the 7th Rapid Response Fleet exceeds 100,000. In order to provide everyone with channels for entertainment and relaxation, there are more than a dozen bars of various sizes in the base.
And each has its own characteristics.
The bar that the members of the Black Flag team often visit is called "Old Sailor" and was opened by a retired sailor. Although it is not large in scale, the decoration and atmosphere are quite good.
The drinks inside are also very good, and the owner himself serves as the bartender.
"Bring me a glass of Starry Sky Flame."
The training had just ended that day, and Wang Chen and several team members came to the Old Sailor Bar as usual.
He sat down in front of the counter and ordered one of the most popular cocktails here.
