After this little episode ended, everyone gradually shifted their focus to reading and studying.
After all, although the abilities learned in school are complete in variety, they are also all kinds of strange.
Not only are some abilities poor in practicality, but their power is not enough to satisfy everyone.
That's why these things are placed in such a big way in the world of delusion.
The greatest significance of these abilities is to give others different ways of thinking.
The abilities gained through military merit have all been tested in actual combat.
These abilities are not only powerful and powerful! And some capabilities are extremely strategic.
Rhodes himself wanted to get that colorful fog that could cover the entire city.
After all, the Zerg often rely on numbers to win.
If there was such a fog, then they would no longer need to rely on battleships to travel through space.
Many strange creatures can crawl around in the universe under such colorful gas!
Maybe it can play some unusual and wonderful uses!
So, how could Rhodes not like this ability?
But it's a pity.
This strategic ability requires not only military merit, but also the corresponding military rank before you can be eligible to exchange it.
Therefore, the abilities Rhodes obtained this time are all large-scale attack methods.
The other students almost all made the same choice as Rhodes.
They had just entered the battlefield, and their single attack methods were no longer sufficient, and they were unable to cope with the chaotic environment on the battlefield.
They really need a range of capabilities to help them establish an advantage as quickly as possible.
In three days, everyone devoured all six books.
Then they immediately received Lao Zhang's latest assignment.
At present, these students need to be led by veterans to attack the frontline base that has just been established in a certain universe of the Mechanical Intelligence Civilization.
When Rhodes heard the news, he immediately felt something was wrong.
After all, if he was in the position of a human civilization that had lost its mind.
If there is another leader who is not clear-headed or wants to exclude dissidents.
So Rhodes can understand the decision made by the above.
But the civilization of the elders is, after all, a civilization that has exerted its intellectual superiority to a certain height. How could it possibly make such a decision?
Attacking a frontline base of a cybernetic civilization?
As soon as you hear this kind of task, you will know that it is not a task like playing house.
How could the senior management with brains let a group of kids with no experience do it?
Moreover, are the cybernetic civilizations that stupid?
We set up a base on the front line, but it was so weak and empty that it was easily destroyed by a group of students who just came out of school!
But Rhodes looked at some well-informed students around him, and his face began to look excited.
Realization dawned on him.
Could this be just a performance arranged by the elders' civilization?
So with this thought in mind, Rhodes pondered what to do next, and followed the crowd to join a team of veterans.
This veteran team consists of a captain and ten members.
Such combat units are very common among the elder civilization.
In ordinary battles, there are such teams as the basis, and batches are thrown into the battle.
When they go to war with foreign countries, they have always maintained this organizational structure. At most, they can add squadrons and brigades above.
Rhodes and others, after getting acquainted with the veterans.
To get to the target location, we still use the familiar method.
The captain used a card, and a big hand came out of the void and held everyone in his hand.
When it stretched out into the void again, Rhodes and others found that they had arrived in a strange universe.
The captain of the team has come to this universe a long time ago, and his fate is always floating around him.
A ball of colored gas has spread over a large area, enveloping everyone who just appeared.
Everyone is suspended in space crookedly.
But the radiation and cold from the outside seem to be completely unable to penetrate this layer of gas.
He crossed his arms and stood firmly in the void.
He looked quickly among these students.
Originally, he planned to watch another joke.
Because the newcomers are not only low in strength, but also have very strange brain circuits.
There will always be weird situations like: Why do I think this should happen?
But the battlefield is not like playing house. You cannot try and make mistakes again and again, and you cannot let these people use their own lives to experience how wrong they are.
Therefore, as long as the veteran tolerates these newcomers showing their ugly behavior in front of him, he can use this to laugh at them.
They are said to be new recruits, brats, bad and useless.
Although this is a PRC method, because it is true and exposed in public, these newcomers will feel very ashamed.
In order not to make further mistakes in the future, they will subconsciously listen to the veterans' arrangements and act.
Even if it's a bit harsh, he will jump out and refute when faced with the ridicule of veterans.
But these thorns will immediately be mercilessly crushed by the veteran, directly crushing his pride.
As a result, with the interweaving of multiple methods, the voice of this team can be unified quickly.
Do you think there is any other better way?
I said yes, but the results are slow and not as fast and efficient as this method.
The battlefield is inherently a place that pursues efficiency, and no one can afford to wait.
With this thought in mind, the captain waited and waited and watched.
He has been waiting for almost half a day, but has not found a suitable target.
Even though these students were a little panicked when they found themselves spinning irregularly in space, they never became confused.
They are still helping each other.
Not long after, these students were all standing upright in the void.
Seeing this scene, the captain was stunned.
He has led the team for so many years, and he has seen all kinds of weird and ugly things.
But this was the first time he had seen such an orderly situation restored in such a short period of time, and the situation was completely beyond his expectation.
He tentatively said to the students: "You are the best quality group in all the years I have led the team."
As expected from the captain, when he praised him like this, someone immediately jumped out to explain.
"We have anticipated this situation for a long time!"
"Ah?" The captain acted as if he just knew.
He asked in a slightly shocked tone: "Who is so smart?"
A girl immediately answered: "It's Brother Yusheng! He has expected this to happen and has led us in drills many times."
Rhodes was speechless.
His words of guidance can be described as simple, direct, and clear.
But with such a superficial provocation, many people still fell for it and sold theirs so easily.
When the captain heard what the girl said, his eyes scanned the crowd.
"Who is Brother Yusheng?"
Rhodes took the initiative to stand up and said without being humble or arrogant: "I am Chu Yusheng."
The captain looked him up and down and said nothing, just nodded to him.
The purpose of their veterans to intimidate the new recruits is actually to establish an effective command system as soon as possible.
With a certain prestige, those new recruits who don't know anything will not act recklessly.
Under the arrangements of veterans, they have a high probability of surviving the brutal recruitment period and becoming qualified veterans.
Now, these new recruits seem to have a fairly adequate organizational structure.
And he thinks the leader of these people is relatively rational, so let him try it first.
They are civilized elders and never suppress those who are willing to take the lead.
Because their entire civilization has too few people.
And among these people, there are still many who are deadheads.
Some people don't even go to the academy, they just want to stay at home and wait to die, while there are even fewer people who are willing to serve civilization.
Therefore, if a new person wants to come forward and look for opportunities, they will directly give you the opportunity.
But when the opportunity is given, whether you can seize it or not is your own problem.
The current captain is already thinking about how to strengthen Rhodes.
While Rhodes was chatting with the captain, the members of this team did not stand still.
They had already started doing their own thing.
A wide glass surface was quickly shaped by them.
A series of dilapidated wooden houses exclusive to the elder civilization began to rise everywhere.
Rhodes looked at these people who were still building and felt a little confused.
Didn’t you say, let’s raid the frontline base?
A surprise attack should come quietly and leave quietly.
Why are you building so much here?
But he did not directly express his doubts to the captain.
Because the captain and other veterans have been fighting abroad for many years.
Everything they do must have their own reasons.
If you don’t have a clear understanding of any situation, you will rashly tell others that there is a problem here or there.
I'm afraid that not only will people not listen, but they will think that there is something wrong with your brain.
So soon, everyone settled here.
In the following time, the captain led his team to go out from time to time.
His whereabouts were strange, and he did not explain them to Rhodes or the others.
This situation only lasted for three days, and they stopped going out anymore.
The fourth day.
The captain gathered all the students together early in the morning.
He informed: "The passage has been established, everyone sets off immediately!"
This time, the captain did not use his big hands to grab these people into the void, but used a different method.
A transparent circular passage that seemed to be constantly flowing appeared in front of everyone.
With a wave of his hand, the captain asked all the students to enter the passage.
However, from beginning to end, the captain never explained to everyone what this so-called passage was.
Rhodes looked towards the passage.
This passage doesn't seem to be very long.
From one end of the passage, he could clearly see the scenery at the other end.
The captain greeted: "Quick, quick! On the other side of the passage is the front line of the Mechanical Intelligence Civilization. Once you pass it, start fighting! Don't hold back!"
Rhodes was stunned when he heard this.
Is it so straightforward?
The group of veterans had quickly entered the passage, and the students immediately followed.
When Rhodes got out of the tunnel, he found that the veterans were already clearing the way.
He looked around.
In the universe, a huge steel building hovers.
There are countless lights and motion capture devices on it, all of which are locked in the direction where the elder civilization appears.
Countless aircraft, less than one meter long, swept up like strong winds, densely packed without any gaps.
The captain glanced at the wave of machines that appeared in his field of vision, and then immediately looked at Rhodes.
"You will be in charge of this attack."
Rhodes asked: "Are you veterans included among those under command?"
"Tsk!" The captain smiled disdainfully.
Although he did not answer Rhodes' question directly, the expression on his face at this time was already a response.
Rhodes was not angry about this situation.
Because the person who is dissatisfied with him at the moment is his nominal superior.
Although he has already made a name for himself, most of his reputation is only spread among his peers.
It is normal to occasionally be looked down upon by those with a higher status than yourself.
These people have earned their status by themselves, and it is very normal to think that there are some things inside children that they rely on bragging.
After all, in such a huge elder civilization, if you can't meet one or two such people, it can only be said that you are too homely.
For a superior who does not trust you, if you are slightly wronged, you will get angry, loudly accuse the other party of looking down on you, and shout about thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west. This is actually very ridiculous.
This kind of words and plots, apart from appearing in movies and making some younger people feel passionate, if they really appeared in reality, this person would only be looked down upon by older people and considered naive and immature.
If a person cannot effectively manage his own emotions, how can he become a qualified leader?
Therefore, only when the other party is clearly bullying you should get angry directly.
For example, someone says to you: People like you are not worthy of toasting me!
At this time, you should just pick up the bottle and hit him hard.
Otherwise, you are synonymous with having no blood and no weakness to bully.
But if the other party is not bullying you openly, it is just because you have no grades and looks down on you.
In this case, even if you are dissatisfied, the best way to deal with it is to suppress your emotions first.
When you become more capable, sensible people will naturally find you reconciliation at a sufficient price.
If you don't know how to deal with people, just make trouble for them.
Therefore, Rhodes, who was completely unaffected by this, reached out to the captain: "Do you have any information about the Intelligent Civilization?"
The captain looked at him in surprise, as if wondering why he would ask such a question.
But he immediately asked: "Why do you want this thing? We don't have it."
Rhodes looked at the captain and said calmly: "We are assigned to do the task. If there are no details at all, then how can we ensure any authenticity and completion rate?"
Rhodes didn't wait for the captain to answer and continued:
“A suitable intelligence is the cornerstone of mission completion.
Maybe you already know a lot about the mechanical intelligence civilization, but as newcomers, we students have only heard about the mechanical intelligence civilization.
If we go there rashly with this attitude, I'm afraid the death rate among the students will be very high. "
The captain narrowed his eyes and said in a dangerous tone: "You mean you want to disobey orders?"
