In the deep starry sky, a huge space fortress appeared in Wang Chen's sight.
The space fortress is one of the highest products of human technological civilization. It is usually used to guard the main star, star gate and border star. It is not only a city in space, but also an interstellar fortress with powerful force.
Most of the space fortresses have military and civilian airports, and are also the main bases of many star fleets.
The space fortress number tK043 that Wang Chen saw was exactly where the Empire's Seventh Rapid Response Fleet was stationed.
The Holy Light Empire has twelve rapid response fleets. Different from the main fleet, the rapid response fleets are small and flexible in organization, usually composed of high-speed destroyers, assault ships, mine destroyers and supply ships.
In terms of firepower, a fast anti-ship fleet may not be as good as a Titan-class battleship, but the speed of a fast anti-ship fleet is far greater than that of the latter, and it is particularly suitable for carrying out emergency missions.
Under normal circumstances, the rapid response fleet only operates within the empire's star domain, and is mainly used to eliminate star pirates, suppress rebel forces, and respond to various types of emergencies.
The interstellar liner that Wang Chen boarded slowly docked into the airport.
He got off the spaceship together with tens of thousands of passengers, and then took a train in the harbor to his destination.
Wang Chen's destination is naturally the fortress station of the 7th Fast Anti-Fleet.
The appearance of the tK043 space fortress is like an ancient mine. It is spherical in shape, but huge platforms extend outward from the surface. From a distance, it looks like it is covered with black thorns.
It’s daunting.
Among them, nine super main guns are the most powerful weapons of this space fortress. Even the Titan battleship, which is known for its powerful defense, cannot withstand a wave of salvos from them.
The base of the seventh anti-ship fleet is right on top of the main gun on the upper level of the fortress, occupying the best and safest position.
Wang Chen got off the speed car at the entrance of the base, and then showed his transfer letter to the guards.
After a short program verification, he passed through many checkpoints under the guidance of a drone and came to the military support department of the base.
A captain officer received Wang Chen and went through the relevant procedures for his enlistment.
"Sergeant, welcome to join the seventh anti-ship fleet!"
After completing the formalities, the captain officer shook hands with Wang Chen and said with a smile: "I will take you to the 35th Mecha Squadron now."
Wang Chen's whereabouts had been confirmed before he joined the job, so there was no question of choice.
The mecha armament of conventional fleets is usually divided into battle groups, groups, squadrons and squads, and different warships are stationed according to their levels.
The squadron is organized into three squads, each squad is equipped with ten combat mechas of different types, and has specialized command, sniper and maintenance teams.
Under the leadership of the captain officer, Wang Chen, who had not had time to change into his military uniform, arrived at the D4 camp inside the base.
The d4 camp area is very large, including hangars, dormitories and training grounds. It gives people the impression that although it is a small sparrow, it has all the internal organs.
When Wang Chen came over, there were hundreds of sergeants in training uniforms practicing on the training ground.
"Lieutenant Carter!"
The captain shouted: "Come and receive your new recruits!"
His voice was very loud and instantly attracted the attention of everyone present.
Some are curious, some are confused, and some are watching the show...
The next moment, a strong man with a strong back and strong waist came over with long strides.
He glanced at Wang Chen quickly and raised his eyebrows: "Captain, what our Black Flag team needs is an elite ranger who can fight and dare to fight. What do you mean by bringing a little chicken here?"
Lieutenant Carter did not hide his contempt for Wang Chen at all.
The reason is simple. Wang Chen doesn't look like the elite pilot he needs at all. He has an average appearance, average temperament, and is very young.
Such people should be cannon fodder recruits filling the front line!
Lieutenant Carter's inner dissatisfaction has reached its peak, and he is naked
Showed nakedly.
Chicken Little?
Wang Chen glanced at the other party calmly.
As a result, Lieutenant Carter's perception was very keen, and he immediately noticed and glared back: "What? If you are not convinced, why don't you go out and practice. If you can withstand three moves in my hands, then you will pass."
"Otherwise, just go where you came from. Our Black Flag Team doesn't need scum with mixed qualifications!"
He obviously regarded Wang Chen as a connected person with a backstage!
The captain officer couldn't laugh or cry: "Lieutenant Carter, let me introduce to you first. This Sergeant Wang Chen comes from the Empire's First Higher Military Academy. He is an outstanding graduate with double majors in assault and land warfare!"
The First Military Academy!
Lieutenant Carter was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but look at Wang Chen again.
The signboard of the Empire's First Higher Military Academy is undoubtedly the loudest within the Imperial Army system. Its reputation accumulated over hundreds of years is unrivaled and cannot be underestimated by anyone.
Lieutenant Carter suppressed the contempt in his eyes and asked in a deep voice: "How old is he?"
The captain officer replied: "Sergeant Wang Chen is twenty years old this year."
Seeing Lieutenant Carter's expression begin to change drastically again, he hurriedly added: "I forgot to tell you that Sergeant Wang Chen has passed the A-level combat professional certification and is a member of the association's elite group!"
A-level warrior!
There was an uproar on the training ground. A group of Imperial soldiers were dumbfounded and couldn't believe their ears.
What is the concept of a twenty-year-old A-level warrior?
The weight of this status undoubtedly far exceeds that of a graduate of the First Military Academy!
Lieutenant Carter sneered: "Don't talk nonsense!"
He himself is a B-level warrior and knows very well how difficult it is to pass the A-level examination.
There may be a lot of gangsters or connections in the First Military Academy, but the A-level certification from the Fighter Association is no joke. Even if you don't have considerable strength, even if you have great hands and eyes, getting this status is just a suicide attempt.
Basically no one would do this!
Therefore, Lieutenant Carter did not believe what the captain said at all, which made the latter very helpless.
The next moment, Wang Chen silently took out his warrior badge and hung it on his chest.
The training ground was suddenly silent. Lieutenant Carter, who had looked disdainful just now, had his eyes wide open and his mouth wide enough to hold an ostrich egg!
Wang Chen smiled and saluted the other party: "Lieutenant Carter, Sergeant Pilot Wang Chen is reporting to you and requesting to join the team!"
Lieutenant Carter closed his mouth, swallowed subconsciously, and then replied with difficulty: "Permission to join the team!"
After hesitating for a moment, he took the initiative to reach out to Wang Chen: "Sergeant, welcome to join the Black Flag Team."
It is almost impossible to fake the A-level warrior badge, and Wang Chen has no need to fake it, and it is even less possible to hide it within the imperial government system, so it must be real.
Lieutenant Carter had no reason to refuse Wang Chen’s joining!
