    Chapter 21 Anger (1)

    Jiang Jianming gradually woke up at this time, and slowly put on his clothes, "I don't need to take medicine, it's my constitution."

    Tang Zhen: "Then go to the treatment cabin, and I'll help you take a leave of absence, sir."

    "No," Jiang Jianming put on his military jacket and coughed lightly, "The burn is not severe, and it won't hinder it."

    Tang Zhen glared angrily.

    "Tang Zhen." Jiang Jianming stepped up his tone, picked up the towel that fell on the bed, and wiped his face carefully, "I said, I am serious about coming to Yuanxingxing. This is not a matter of taking a day or two off. So don't ask for leave."

    He does what he says.

    From the mecha cross-country training in the morning, to physical training, gun shooting, field combat... Except for the crystal bone-related courses, Jiang Jianming really followed, and one of the training items throughout the day declined.

    However... until the second day and the third day, he had repeated low-grade fever, and the symptoms of weakness increased instead of decreasing.

    Jiang Jianming had to start taking medicine.

    But as he said, the potion doesn't have much use.

    On the fourth day, Tang Zhen couldn't take it anymore, so he forced Jiang Jianming to go to the medical area of ​​the fortress. The latter did get better after sleeping in the treatment cabin for a day, but after returning to training on the fifth day, he soon began to have a low fever.

    "Look, I said it all."

    Returning to the dormitory in the evening, Jiang Jianming said helplessly to Tang Zhen, "This is not a good thing to take a day or two off. I just arrived at Yin Beidou and I still haven't gotten used to it yet... I'll be fine after a while."

    Li Youfang stood far away with his chest folded, staring at him with an extremely complicated expression.

    Qiao whispered, "This guy is so stubborn, what's the point of being so tough."

    Li Youfang glanced at Qiao silently. He remembered that the young man's performance in various events was not very good since he entered Yinbeidou, and his performance in the time trial that day was particularly poor, and he was depressed for several days.

    Seeing Li Youfang looking at him, Qiao quickly cheered up: "Li, you will definitely win him next time!"

    Obviously, now Joe has chosen the strategy of hugging his thighs after being hit hard.

    No matter how advanced Jiang Jianming's mecha skills are, he is still a sickly and disabled human being, and his temperament is also alienated and indifferent; while Tang Zhen is a noble young master, he seems to have no shortage of younger brothers, and he always mixes with the former. The two girls in the team are in The dormitory opposite... He decided to please Li Youfang.

    To be honest, Li Youfang didn't really think much of this fat young man who was full of clumsy writing and seemed stupid even to please people.

    But he was really conflicted in his heart, so he just lowered his head and groaned twice to fool him. Unexpectedly, the figure around him flickered, and Jiang Jianming walked past him and walked towards the dormitory door.

    Tang Zhen frowned and called him later: "Little Jiang? Where are you going at night?"

    "Trading area," Jiang Jianming pushed the door out and left a sentence, "I'm going to see the tranquilizers and weapons, you don't need to accompany me."

    "You... ah! You go back sooner!"

    Tang Zhen shouted at the top of his voice, and Jiang Jianming had already closed the door.

    "..."

    Li Youfang frowned and folded his arms: "I said Tang Shao, this person has always been like this in school?"

    He rubbed his brows irritably, "Did he not consider himself a disabled human being when he was sick?"

    "Don't mention it, it's been like this since I knew him, and it's gotten worse in the past three years," Tang Zhen was rarely in the mood to contradict Li Youfang, and tutted with a dark face, "I've convinced him."

    ...

    The fortress trading area is open tonight. When Jiang Jianming strolled over slowly, many officers and soldiers of Yin Beidou were crowded here, coming and going under the lights.

    Next to him were cluttered footsteps, loud voices and loud voices, and he could smell the faint smell of tobacco and alcohol, blood and sweat.

    This is the taste of the battlefield.

    Jiang Jianming watched for a long time in front of the self-service counter where various items were displayed. He first bought three tranquilizers and began to choose new crystal weapons that could effectively kill alien creatures.

    It's okay to be in the periphery now, but when you enter a more dangerous area in the future, it's impossible to deal with it with a pistol alone.

    At least, at least, why don't you have a machine gun...

    Jiang Jianming smiled bitterly and thought to himself: he can't even buy it if he sells it.

    As he thought so, he suddenly felt sensitively that there were footsteps approaching behind him.

    ——This is a very special pace. It is obvious that all kinds of footsteps are noisy and mixed, but this pace is very stable and strict, as if the sky collapses, it will not affect this kind of bearing.

    This is the pace Jiang Jianming recognized.

    When he turned back, the footsteps stopped.

    Garcia was standing behind him wearing a silver Beidou military uniform. The black and silver uniform made this man look taller and stern.

    The conspicuous platinum curly hair was tied up and rolled up at the back of his head, so he could barely hide under his cap.

    Jiang Jianming said in shock: "Dang..."

    The next second, Garcia raised his hand and pointed at his lips in the air, which was a gesture of "silence".

    What's strange is that the small space on his face is strangely blurred, and the facial features can't be seen clearly if he is far away, only a small instrument attached to his left ear is very clear.

    Jiang Jianming recognized that this is a gadget developed by the latest technology, which can block the user's face to a certain extent. Ryan used to wear it when he went out to play, so as not to cause a big uproar.

    Jiang Jianming closed his mouth clearly and nodded gently.

    So Garcia walked to his side and stroked his left ear... The prince should have adjusted the influence of the masking device. Now Jiang Jianming can see this person's face normally.

    "I didn't expect to meet you," Jiang Jianming took the initiative to get closer and said with a slight smile, "Will the dignified imperial prince also visit the trading area in person?"

    Garcia glanced at him, and suddenly frowned very quickly.

    "You are sick," he said in a deep voice.

    "...Slight illness," Jiang Jianming was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the prince to be so sharp-eyed, "Don't worry about it."

    Obviously, he only has a low-grade fever, and his mental state should be kept in good condition. Even when he was out of training, few people could find him sick.

    The prince was silent for a second, then frowned and asked, "Why are you always sick?"

    Jiang Jianming: "..."

    It's a good question, it's comparable to the phrase "Why don't you use crystal bone manipulation".

    Without getting an answer, Garcia walked on his own, and Jiang Jianming followed naturally.

    He did not ask why His Highness came to look for him, nor did His Highness ask him what he was doing with him. The two walked through the rows of self-service counters, forming a quiet and comfortable tacit understanding.

    After a while, Jiang Jianming spoke.

    "His Royal Highness, if a person is in the far interstellar space, and there is no crystal bone available for the time being, is there any new crystal weapon to remedy this situation?"

    When the black-haired youth asked, his eyes were calm and his tone was serious, and Garcia couldn't help but glance at the man.

    Jiang Jianming hurriedly added more seriously: "The budget is lower."

    "It's related to your illness?" Garcia asked lightly. "Do you like hot weapons or cold weapons? How long do you plan to use it?"

    Jiang Jianming slammed into his heart: "cough cough cough..."

    "I'm sorry, Your Highness," he waved his hands again and again, "My budget may... can only afford a one-time consumption of new crystal equipment."

    Garcia was silent for about half a minute.

    "Then try the crystal particle bomb. It's light and powerful enough. You can throw it when you open the cockpit door in the mecha."

    Jiang Jianming breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, you have helped me a lot."

    On the way to the food section, Garcia stopped.

    He started pressing keys.

    The electronic screen at the counter showed the item he had selected... it was a rosy apple.

    Jiang Jianming stood behind.

    He lowered his head, holding back his smile very hard.

    It turned out that His Royal Highness the dignified imperial prince came to the trading area alone at night wearing a concealed device, unexpectedly to buy apples to eat.

    ... If he dared to tell others, nine out of ten people would not believe it, and the remaining one would drag him to the doctor to see if he had finally burned his brain.

    But Jiang Jianming could even guess what kind of apple Garcia bought.

    ——"Irene Agate" red apple, the most valuable variety in Eden Star City, genetically improved and naturally cultivated, a veritable noble fruit... The price is 50,000 yuan per point.

    His little highness is very sloppy, and he doesn't look down on anything other than this breed.

    Jiang Jianming couldn't help but sigh with sadness: Being a prince is really rich...

    I really miss the time when the little prince raised him, when the little prince would still peel apples for him.

    "Ding!" The voice of the shipment sounded.

    Garcia picked up two "Irene Onyx" from the opened pickup port and handed it to Jiang Jianming.

    "?"

    Jiang Jianming couldn't believe it, "Did you give it to me?"

    "The patient is not suitable for Yin Beidou," Garcia said lightly. "If you can't hold it, go back to the empire as soon as possible... In your capacity, there is no need to suffer here."

    The "Irene Onyx" worth 50,000 coins landed firmly in Jiang Jianming's palm.

    Garcia looked at the thin white skin, and the emerald eyes darkened by three points.

    For a long time... because of his noble status, inhuman crystal bones, temperament, and perhaps some other reasons, few people dared to stand side by side with him like this.

    But the black-haired young man in front of him had an air of tranquility, as if no worldly power could shake the tranquility of this soul.

    Should it be said that it is the candidate chosen by His Majesty?

    Unfortunately, the body is really bad.

    The prince said in a low voice: "Don't listen to empty words such as blood that represents honor. Death will not be given meaning here."

    Jiang Jianming's heart trembled.

    His fingers tightened, and the light overhead cast a soft, bright sheen on the apple.

    Jiang Jianming suddenly raised his head to look at the prince who was in front of him, and asked in a deep voice, "Then you say, what's the point of being here..."

    There were some special fluctuations in his tone, some like humbly asking for advice, and some like straightforward examination.

    Garcia slowly closed his eyes, and his long eyelashes swept out a black shadow as hard as iron.

    "victory."

    The prince opened his lips in a deep voice, and the words were like a knife and dagger: "...Only victory is the meaning pursued by the fighters."

    "yes."

    Jiang Jianming's eyes were clear, and he didn't seem to be surprised by the answer: "Then what is the meaning of victory?"

    Garcia was slightly startled and turned to look at him.

    The meaning of victory...

    This is a very complicated issue. Throughout the ages, what lies behind the victories and defeats of countless human wars is a topic that humanists are still arguing about.

    This is also a very simple question, if it is limited to Yin Beidou——

    Yin Beidou Interstellar Expeditionary Force, it is the silver spear that opened up the territory for the empire, and even the children who go to kindergarten in the empire can sing 300 words for you in one sentence without stumbling.

    But don't know why, when Garcia was stared at by those dark and deep eyes, the slogans that were shouted were extremely empty, making it difficult for him to speak.

    This is by no means an answer that the person in front of him would readily accept.

    Garcia thought for no reason.

    The prince pondered for a long time, and finally did not answer.

    ...

    After that, the two separated at a fork.

    Jiang Jianming did not go to the self-service counter of the new crystal equipment, but went to the private trading area to try to pick up leaks.

    In the end, he bought two medium-sized crystal particle bombs from an uncle of a non-commissioned officer.

    It looks like a doubled grenade, but its power is said to be able to blow up three electric shocks, even B-class alien creatures can't stand it.

    Fortunately, the uncle had been drinking at the time, and he was blushing and scolding his neck thickly, scolding the superior for actually entering the residual crystal human into the fortress, which was really funny.

    Jiang Jianming came up to him at the right time to support him, the uncle fluttered, and gave a 30% discount to this beautiful little officer who was "on the road".

    So, the pretty little officer bought the new crystal weapon with satisfaction at a low price.

    Of course, this also caused his holdings to drop to only a few hundred points again.

    ... This night, Jiang Jianming struggled for a long time before he made up his mind and gave up the idea of ​​selling the "Irene Agate".

    And just like that, night after night, time moved on.

    More than half a month has passed, and young people have gradually adapted to Yin Beidou.

    The most intuitive thing is that the complaints about the harsh training and strict officers in the dormitory area have subsided a little bit, and it is rare for people to wipe the corners of their eyes and say they are homesick in the evening.

    Common topics became "alien creatures," "combat skills," and "merit." Several good students from famous schools have also learned to exchange some tobacco, alcohol and snacks in the trading area.

    Occasionally, Jiang Jianming also heard some gossip inside Yin Beidou.

    For example, there was a big man from the second fortress who seemed to be stupid and stupid, but when he was fighting, he was as mighty as a bear.

    Jiang Jianming knew that it was Gao Long, and before he had time to be happy for a second for this "good friend" whom he met by chance, he heard the person talking mysteriously say:

    "However, I heard that the big man is not the most powerful..."

    "Because the big man himself said that there is a mysterious character in this recruit, who is a genetically modified person secretly developed by the Empire—"

    "I heard it too, I heard that she is still a big beauty!"

    "And it's very strong! Raise your hand and you can blow up a mountain, stomping your feet and cracking on the ground!"

    "The eyes are clairvoyant eyes, the mouth is an infrasound weapon, and the spirit can directly invade the S-class mecha!"

    "I heard that he was on a top-secret military mission and disappeared when he reached the distant stars, and no one could find him..."

    Jiang Jianming: "?"

    Is there something wrong?

    Don't you know the truth of not believing and not spreading rumors? ?

    The temperature has gradually dropped in the past few days, and the snow will always cover the entire fortress.

    Alpha Alien's winter, the coldest and most dangerous season on the planet is approaching.

    It was also at this time that Lieutenant Colonel Huolin pulled the group of young people out of the fortress and announced that they would conduct a seven-day field experience.

    Jiang Jianming's condition is good and bad...

    What he called "this moment" still hasn't passed.

    The author has something to say:

    Garcia: Heart, if nothing happened, send an apple.

    Jiang: ...give me some money...
