"Let me go! Where are you taking me?"
"Take you for driving training!"
When Lin Ao heard this, he opened Sergeant Anton's hand and found that he couldn't do it with his own strength.
"You are the pilot of this machine, and the training is for your own good!"
"I don't want it! I don't want to drive this thing! I don't want to kill anyone anymore!"
Lin Ao's voice became louder and louder, attracting the attention of others in the hangar.
"Boy! You are no longer a cook. From the moment you shoot, you are a soldier! As long as you are the driver of that thing for a day, you will not be able to escape, because HER and others will come to find you!"
"I am not a warrior! I will never be a warrior!"
Lin Ao struggled hard and kicked Sergeant Anton. Sergeant Anton slapped Lin Ao in the face, sending Lin Ao flying to the ground.
Lin Ao covered his swollen face and got up and roared: "You hit me? Even my father never hit me!"
Lin Ao's words made the crew members present laugh. Anton said disdainfully: "Where did you learn this line? Come with me!"
Lin Ao saw that Anton was trying to drag him again, so he quickly ran to the elevator next to the No. 2 machine, raised it to the cockpit, and used the technician's tools nearby to smash the control screen of the cockpit. But before he could hit him, a jet of fire-extinguishing water sprayed out of the cabin and knocked him down. The people next to him saw this and quickly controlled Lin Ao.
"Hey, not only did you vomit, but you also smashed Unit 2?" the AI said angrily.
"Bring him here! Watch closely!"
Sergeant Anton ordered.
…
In fact, the driving training of humanoid weapons can be done in the cockpit. The computer will simulate the battlefield scene to familiarize the trainer with various buttons and joysticks. But after what he had just experienced, Anton did not dare to let Lin Ao do driving training on the No. 2 aircraft, so he pulled him onto a Star Alliance standard model "Lifeguard".
The lifeguard's cockpit is relatively small. It is said that the early Covenant humanoid weapons test aircraft were still two-person pilots, and the cockpits were directly modified from fighter jets. As a result, the cockpit space of later models was generally very small.
After Anton adjusted the training mode, he could only guide Lin Ao outside the cabin. Even if Lin Ao didn't want to do it, he still had to cooperate with the training obediently.
An image of the universe appeared on the screen of the "Lifeguard", prompting the driver to step on the pedals to complete travel and acceleration. Lin Ao found that this was relatively similar to the cockpit structure of the No. 2 aircraft.
After completing simple steps forward, backward, and turning, the computer asked Lin Ao to complete the posture adjustment action.
This action is an action for the humanoid weapon to help the driver and the body find balance in a gravity-free space environment. But Lin Ao had never been to the universe and did not understand what this action meant.
"Just follow the instructions and you'll need it sooner or later!" Sergeant Anton said.
After completing a few more actions, the computer asked Lin Ao to take out his weapon and shoot the simulated target. Now Lin Ao hesitated. Although he had just killed a person, he never wanted to do it.
"No..." Lin Ao resisted.
"If you don't shoot, you will die! You are already dead!" Sergeant Anton couldn't see Lin Ao's hesitation and slapped the hatch hard. Lin Ao completed the shooting action after being frightened.
"If you hadn't killed that HER soldier, you and the refugees would have died! Now the whole earth is a battlefield, and you can't escape! Coward!"
Anton's scolding made Lin Ao cry. He had experienced too much in the past few days. Anton knocked hard on the cabin door to no avail, and slapped Lin Ao again. Seeing that Lin Ao was still crying, Anton sighed and left.
Corporal Bart, First Class Li Si and Private Miao Haosi were watching the fun. When they saw the sergeant coming out shaking his head, they stepped forward and asked him: "Sergeant, is this guy reliable?"
"I've seen cowards, and I've seen people who are unwilling to kill, but this guy has been through so much and still acts like a coward, it's a headache!"
"Maybe he is really not suitable to be a soldier. Don't be too strict with him." Private Li Si said.
"Now it's not a matter of willingness and suitability. The horned machine can only be piloted by him. If he falls into the hands of HER, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"This kind of brat will be honest after a beating!" Corporal Bart clenched his fists.
Anton shook his hand and said, "Forget it, I'm afraid he'll drive a hole in the boat with his long-horned one!"
"Okay, it's time for us to eat. Do you want to grab that kid?"
Anton looked at Lin Ao, who was still sobbing, and said, "Forget it, let him stay by himself for a while."
…
Lin Ao hid in the cockpit of the "lifeguard" and sobbed. A woman wearing an apron, red hair, and brown skin held a water glass and knocked on the cabin door with San Mingye.
"Eat some."
Lin Ao saw that the visitor was a chef just like him, so he put down his guard, took the food and water and ate hungrily.
"I heard you were driving the one with the horns?" the woman asked.
Lin Ao's voice was still crying:
"I don't want to drive it, I should be a chef!"
"Hey boy!" The woman suddenly slapped Lin Ao hard, then showed her biceps and said:
"If it weren't for the fact that there aren't many people on this ship who know how to cook, I'd be killing space locusts too!"
Lin Ao asked her: "Do you also like killing people?"
The woman shook her head and said, "I don't like it, but my fiancé was a soldier. He was killed by HER. I got on this ship to do something."
Lin Ao remained silent, and the woman asked him: "Why do you hate being a soldier so much?"
"My father is a doctor and a teacher. He taught me from a young age that fighting between humans is wrong. But he was killed by HER soldiers to protect me and my mother, so I hate soldiers! When I picked up a gun, I I saw my father's figure and I couldn't do anything..."
"But I heard that you killed someone from HER?"
"I don't know! At that time, the AI asked me to aim at the slope. I didn't know that the gun could shoot through the slope..."
The chatter started, and Lin Ao told the woman a lot about his experiences in the past few days. With someone to talk to, Lin Ao's mood calmed down a lot.
Seeing that Lin Ao had finished talking, the woman patted her butt and stood up to leave.
"It's time for me to go back. If you need my help, go to the galley of this ship and find Fiona. That's me!"
"Well, bye Aunt Fiona."
"ah?"
Fiona stopped and came back fiercely. Before Lin Ao could react, she threw him cleanly over the shoulder.
"You brat, are you 18 years old? I'm only 7 years older than you!"
Fiona left angrily, Lin Ao rubbed his back and muttered: "Obviously it's you who keeps calling yourself my mother, my mother..."
After a while, an alarm suddenly sounded in the hangar: "HER troops appeared at 9 o'clock east, including five Yingyangs and several fighter jets. All personnel entered combat mode!
Soon, the quiet hangar became noisy. The driver skillfully completed the preparations and drove the humanoid weapon away from the battleship under the guidance of the ground crew.
Sergeant Anton also appeared. He ordered the technicians to move his special machine to the deck. At the same time, he pointed at Lin Ao. Lin Ao thought he was going to attack on his own, and suddenly became nervous.
"Boy, go and wait on top of the horn and watch the battle first!"
