The Kot Star Port is suspended in a synchronous orbit 40,000 kilometers away from the Kot Star. It is located above the Kot Equator across the Orton Mountains. It is assembled from six specially-made giant starships.
The Kot Star Port and two other small starships are evenly distributed in the Kot synchronous orbit, forming a monitoring network that almost covers the entire world of Kot Star.
Various sensors and receivers installed on the monitoring network point to the corresponding Kot star area below. They have powerful ground monitoring capabilities and can cover most areas of the Oton Mountains. Of course, Meiji Town is also included. Inside.
In the star port command center, an officer who was tinkering in front of the holographic screen raised his head and reported loudly,
"Sir, we have found out clearly by tracing the trajectory and zooming in on key images. The LN179 team captured a live cub, which caused restlessness in the entire python bear group."
At the moment, the commander on duty at the Cote Star Port Command Center is a burly middle-aged Chinese officer. His muscles are taut and his blue one-piece combat uniform is bulging. He wears the rank of major on his arm.
He frowned and stood in front of the central brain in the hall of the command center. He rubbed his shaven chin with one hand and pulled the three-dimensional image in front of him with one hand, complaining in his mouth,
"Tsk, tsk, when did the Python Bear, who was only two-star strong a few years ago, have these professionals? Go and ask the intelligence center immediately, what the hell are they analyzing? Do you have to eat hard every day?"
His fingers paused on the screen, freezing the moment when the python bear hit the stone wall, took a deep breath, and muttered,
"Made, I can't beat it either!"
The far-infrared camera image clearly showed the single horn on the head of the python bear, like a burning flame.
"I remember that last time, a group of trial cubs also provoked a python bear and killed one. I didn't see how much noise these beasts made?"
A young lieutenant sitting in front of the control screen behind him took off his headphones, stood up and reported,
"Sir, Lina Star Trial Team Leader Zhou Min sent a communication request from Linsen Island."
Spiritual trials have a long tradition in human history, and can even be traced back to before the founding of the empire. As the basic successor of the Chinese lineage of mankind, the Empire naturally continues this fine tradition.
The trial is divided into several different levels, mainly testing individual combat power and teamwork. Among them, the largest target group is the spiritual being who has entered the world for the first time.
Planet Kot is one of the three major trial bases of the Empire. There are seven trial points on the entire planet. There are three trial points in the Orton Mountains alone. The entrances are located at Meiji Town at the south entrance of the mountain range and at the north entrance. Wan'an Town at the west entrance and Xiwei Town at the west entrance.
Among these three towns, Meiji Town has the longest history and the largest trial area. It is the first choice for each trial team. Due to the topography and climate, the biodiversity and area of the North Exit and West Exit are far less than those towards Meiji Town.
The main targets of the Kot Star Trial are high school graduates from various star regions in the empire. Not every graduate can participate in such activities. Only the best among the graduates, after being selected by their own stars, can get the opportunity to trial. This difficulty is even dozens of times higher than that of one in ten thousand.
If nothing else, the trial will also provide these newborn calves with their maiden voyage to interstellar travel. This benefit alone is enough to make the children suffer a lot, and fighting with each other is by no means an isolated phenomenon.
Linsen Island is the location of the Kot Star Sky Base, which is the only connection between the civilized empire and the primitive Kot. As usual, the leaders and teachers of the trial team can only stay at the base.
No matter which administrative star they are on, the space starships coming across the starry sky cannot land directly on the planet and can only be parked at the star port in orbit around the star. Generally, what travels between the starport and the administrative star are land-based aerospace vehicles, in addition to the landing ships that come with the starship.
When the major heard this, he didn't look back at all. He waved his hand and said impatiently,
"Just tell her. We will not interfere with the trial process, and we will not allow anyone to interfere under any excuse."
The second lieutenant sat down and clicked his slender fingers on the control screen. After a while, he stood up again and said,
"Sir, Zhou Min asked me to tell you that Si Wenyuan and Si Wenjun, brothers and sisters of Trial Team 179, are the direct grandsons of General Si Xinghai, the deputy chief of the Imperial Military Department."
"Tamad, you idiot, wouldn't you be deaf or mute?"
The blue veins on the major's forehead popped out. He waved his arms as thick as a bowl and cursed loudly,
"Tell her, this is the rule of our Guhua Empire. Even if General Si stands in front of me, I will say the same thing!"
The young lieutenant shrank his neck in fright, and sat down in dismay. His fingers tapping on the screen became sluggish. After a while, he gritted his teeth and stood up straight for the third time.
"Sir, Zhou Min personally requested to apply for an Orton pass as a professional to participate in the support operation in Meiji Town."
"Permission is granted to participate, but without a pass, you are not allowed to leave the Mischief area, and you are not allowed to board the Hayabusa."
The major gritted his teeth and said,
"Tell her that the reason for not having a pass is that professionals are not allowed to enter the Orton Mountains; the reason for not being able to take the flight is that the Hayabusa has limited space and must give priority to groups and equipment that can enter the mountains. If she is serious, then Go sit Brent.”
The planet Kot has only two continents, the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent, which are in the shape of opposite crescents. The ocean occupies about three-quarters of the surface area of the world. The ocean on the opposite side of the crescent moon is called the Linsen Ocean, and the ocean on the opposite side of the crescent moon is called the Zhibin Ocean.
Linsen Island is the largest island in Linsenyang, with an area of more than 400,000 square kilometers. It is roughly at the same latitude as Luming City. It is the only space port on the planet.
Although the entire base is large in scale, it looks very simple. Excavation of various metal minerals is strictly prohibited on Planet Geinko. In other words, Planet Kote has no large-scale industrial industry at all. As a result, there is no decent building in Linsen Island Skyport, and all the houses are not made of bricks or stones. It is built of wood.
What still has a bit of modern flavor are the two runways that are more than 3,000 meters long. On the Kot planet, this runway is the only one, and there is no other semicolon.
The terminal building located at the end of the runway is a cluster of several connected two-story buildings. Although the building is not high, it occupies a large area. In the tarmac shed in front of the building, there is a spaceship that is being maintained. The exterior has a large reddish-brown background, and there are traces of smoke and fire everywhere on the fuselage, like patches of rust. patch.
In the entire Kot planet, there are only three such master-level aerospace vehicles.
In fact, all objects with a bit of modern flavor need to be imported from aliens, and cannot be produced on the Kot planet at all.
In the general perception of the Guhua Empire, the four words "Kote style" have become synonymous with backwardness, primitiveness, ignorance and other connotations.
The main control station of Linsen Island Skyport is some distance away from the terminal building. It consists of several small brick and concrete buildings with three or four floors. There is a huge antenna on the roof, surrounded by simple antennas. wood fence.
Under the light of the fence gate, a tall woman was wandering outside the door. When she saw someone quickly walking out of the room, she turned around, and the breeze blew her hair, revealing a face full of anxiety. It was Li Na Xing Trial Team Leader, Zhou Min, the principal of Lina Middle School.
It is understandable that a middle school can be named as an administrative star, which is incredible, and it itself shows an unparalleled status.
As a woman with status, strength, and charm, Zhou Min is obviously a very popular target, but it is of no use at this time. Although she could get information about the trial team in time, she could not enter the small courtyard of the main control station, which was a military powerhouse similar to the White Tiger Festival Hall. She could only stand outside the door and stamp her feet. When she saw a reply from a second lieutenant, she almost lost her breath.
Of course Zhou Min knew that the distance from Vincent Island to Luming City was 600 kilometers. Even if the poor wooden Brent sailboat was driven by high-energy batteries imported from aliens, it would take three days and two nights to float! Then transfer to a river wooden boat from Luming City and go upstream along the Zidan River. It will take at least four more days to climb to Meiji.
The day lilies are completely cold.
In anger, Zhou Min reached out through the fence, grabbed the second lieutenant who was delivering the message, and shouted loudly,
"What do you mean by limited space? Fortunately, you are still an officer. Tell me, why can't one more person be crammed into a transport plane?"
Non-spirits cannot become official officers of the Imperial Army, so this second lieutenant must not be a Kot, but an alien who came to Kot for rotation.
Facing Zhou Min, an arrogant professional who was only a second lieutenant of a star spirit, and knowing the identity and background of the opponent, he did not dare to struggle, spread his hands, and said with a wrinkled face,
"Mr. Zhou, this really doesn't exist. Even including the driver, the Hayabusa can only seat three people."
"Can't you make one more trip?"
"Mr. Zhou, we only have an order to fly one sortie. You must know that on Kot, all imported resources must be carefully budgeted, and no one dares to exceed the rules."
Zhou Min let go of his hand dejectedly and spat,
"What kind of imported resource is this Broken Falcon Bird?"
The second lieutenant straightened his wrinkled collar and said with a wry smile,
"Mr. Zhou, even if you change the tire of a Hayabusa, you have to use the quota. Do you think it counts?"
His expression became serious,
"Mr. Zhou, it is an extreme exception to allow you to go to Meiji, please..."
The second lieutenant suppressed his words, saluted, turned and walked into the house.
From the beginning of the construction of Linsen Island Skyport, transportation issues have been taken into consideration. The skyport and the seaport are not far from each other, and there are regular trams.
Helpless Zhou Min finally waited until dawn and hurried to the harbor. After asking about it, she found out that Brent was not available every day. No matter how anxious she was, she could only wait two days before boarding the slow Brent and crawling towards Luming City.
