How could a lazy guy like Fu Qinghai take the postgraduate entrance examination?
Laziness and curiosity are not mutually exclusive.
People's laziness sometimes stems from their personality, and sometimes it stems from their physical energy status.
But Fu Qinghai, who had completed the surgical transformation of the Space Marine, first ruled out fatigue and lack of energy.
Let him be energetic and motivated every day.
After deciding to train as a technical sergeant with Master Quinto, Fu Qinghai's time schedule became more fulfilling. In addition to daily training and the study of military knowledge, there was also more learning content about the unique science and technology of the 40K universe.
Before Fu Qinghai became a disciple of Master Quinto, he quietly crammed in a lot of basic theoretical knowledge about the Warhammer 40K universe in the small library of the frigate, mainly about cosmic physics. He first built up the structure of the world view of Warhammer 40K in his mind. Get up and cover everything from what subspace is to what the Geller force field is.
After all, the body arranged by the world of reincarnation, the young boy Locke, is almost an illiterate according to the definition of the 40K Human Empire.
As mentioned before, Tony Stark's electronic soul backup is not completely equivalent to another Iron Man. Although this thing copies part of Iron Man's memory, it is essentially an electronic brain rather than a human brain. It has both electronic and Despite the shortcomings of the brain, electronic brains also have advantages over human brains, especially in terms of memory capabilities.
Based on the characteristics of the electronic brain, his reading speed was comparable to that of scanning. His memory and understanding were also somewhat different from those of the traditional human brain, and he quickly understood the settings of this universe.
With basic theoretical knowledge of physics, you can start studying the prerequisite subjects of engineering - materials science, energy dynamics, etc.
Material science, especially the rare natural material unique to the Warhammer 40K universe - adamantium, and the advanced composite materials of the human empire - ceramite and plastic steel.
Energy dynamics, the most basic and common liquid fuel promethium in the empire, is something Fu Qinghai or Locke is already familiar with. He mainly studies fusion nuclear power, which is almost commonplace in the world of Warhammer 40K.

Training cage.
Fu Qinghai, who was covered in scars all over, was sitting cross-legged in the center of the training cage, naked to the waist and wearing only a pair of sports shorts. He relaxed his whole body, closed his eyes slightly, and silently meditated and adjusted his breath according to Professor Ogedai's method.
Even without the assistance of the power armor's life support system, the Space Marine's physique alone is enough to repair these seemingly shocking skin injuries.
Outside the training cage, Ogedai and Albus Lang were whispering.
Wo Kuotai looked at Fu Qinghai who was meditating quietly in the training cage, tilted his head and covered his mouth, and whispered:
"Al no, what do you think of Locke?"
"He is a cunning warrior." Albus Lang first came to a conclusion.
"I like him very much. He is very smart. He is a person who really uses his brain to fight. He does not stick to a certain technique or school, and he is not narcissistic like those of the Emperor's Children. The same pursuit of bullshit beauty, this kid values results, in order to defeat me, he can deliberately take a few light blows from me, feint to retreat, fake injuries, everything comes up."
The corners of Ogedei's mouth twitched. Albus Long's description made him feel shameless rather than clever.
However, Albus Lang's evaluation of him is quite high. His skills are ultimately limited. Finding his own way is the fundamental pursuit of a warrior. Fu Qinghai seemed to have some signs of this from the beginning.
…………
Another nine standard Terran months passed.
Nine months of silent sailing, if it were Fu Qinghai, he would probably be bored out of his mind, but for the crew members who have adapted to the long space voyage, it is not particularly difficult.
Bottom, in Quinto's laboratory.
Fu Qinghai was once again covered with lines and probes, sitting on a metal box.
On the screen on the workbench beside him, Master Quinto, who was dressed in a dark red robe, was silently watching the beating readings on the screen.
Quinto was analyzing Fu Qinghai's body data, and Fu Qinghai was not idle at all, quietly opening the attribute panel in his mind.
[Name: Fu Qinghai (real name)

He's grown a little taller and heavier than he was nine months ago.
During these nine months of continuous development, the various superhuman organs of the body have truly grown into a complete body.
Master Quinto's hoarse voice sounded: "There is no problem on my side, how do you feel about it?"
"Me? I feel great and energetic every day."
Quinto smiled hoarsely, "This is your adrenaline urging you to enter the battle as soon as possible. This day will not be too far away. Little Locke, think about why Ogedai chose you. Becoming an advanced creature beyond mortals is not There’s no cost.”
After a pause, Quinto continued: "To die on the battlefield is the fate of all Astartes. I just hope you don't die so quickly and let me observe you for a while."
"Even if you are going to die in the end, don't die too cowardly. After all, you are the work of me, Quinto Anastasio. Try to die as grandly as possible, and don't let ordinary people question my level."
"Return to your squad, they should be ready for you."
Master Quinto, your words are so auspicious, your mouth is filled with honey... Fu Qinghai cursed, "Isn't it better for me to die than to live?"
Hearing that Wokuotai and the others had prepared something for him, they were about to ask, but when Kunto waved his hands and seemed to have no intention of explaining, Fu Qinghai did not ask any more questions.
After standing up and nodding to Master Quinto, he turned and left.
…………
Frigate Gladius, bridge.
The bridge was a little lively today, and many people who didn't usually come here were here.
They seemed to have been waiting here for Fu Qinghai's arrival.
The captain of the Gladius, Konrad Adenauer, is a middle-aged man with a black beard who always wears a uniform. The bridge is where he should appear.
The highest military commander of this ship, the representative of the Space Marines, the company commander of the White Scars Falcon Brotherhood, and an old acquaintance of Fu Qinghai, Ogedei Manut.
Except for Ogedai, the remaining six Space Marines, including Talal and Albus Lang, all appeared on the bridge.
This is not common.
During these nine months of getting along, Fu Qinghai had become familiar with his comrades in the company. He raised his arms to his chest and saluted them with a military salute, and the Space Marines who stood in a row and stared at Fu Qinghai responded with the same courtesy. military salute.
There was another person, a tall and thin young man with messy yellow hair, pale skin and freckles.
His eyes and forehead were tightly wrapped in circles of white cloth, but he followed everyone's gaze and "looked" at Fu Qinghai as if he was not affected.
The moment he was "stared" at him, Fu Qinghai felt his heart beat slightly.
So this is what it feels like to be watched by a psychic... Fu Qinghai thought to himself.
He is the navigator of the Gladius frigate, Marco Van Leer, who comes from the blood of a certain navigator family in the empire.
Special psychics such as Navigators will grow a third eye on their forehead when their psychic abilities mature. This eye is normally closed and covered to prevent inadvertent viewing by mortals. The sight caused him to fall into panic and fear.
Fu Qinghai nodded to the navigator Marco.
The other party responded with an imperceptible chin, which was not as cold and unapproachable as the rumored psychic.
Astropaths are generally blind, but navigators are not, and Van Leer may have blindfolded himself simply to enhance the sensitivity of the third eye on his forehead. Fu Qinghai guessed it.
"Okay, little Locke, come over here." Ogedai's hoarse voice rang out, and you could tell that he was in a good mood today.
He motioned for Fu Qinghai to come to him, and as he looked at the tall and young space warrior in front of him, Wo Kuotai's eyes were filled with relief.
White Scar's warriors believed in the existence of such things as murderous aura. In Wo Kuotai's eyes, after this long period of training, Fu Qinghai had already begun to show his talents, and his body gradually gained a hint of the so-called "qi" and "harmony". .
"Today is the day when you are officially promoted and become one of us. I have simply arranged a ceremony for you." Wo Kuotai explained.
"I think you all know everyone here, and I don't need to introduce you too much. Oh, by the way, this is Van Leer, Marco bala bala bala Van Leer. I can't remember the middle name. , our navigator, comes from the noble...er, the Leer family in the lowlands of Terra Continent."
There was a hint of teasing in Ogedei's tone, and he turned to Marco and asked: "Is there anything wrong with my statement, Sir Navigator?"
The pale young man didn't react much to Wo Kuotai's obvious joke. He just shook his head lightly and said, "No problem, Lord Wo Kuotai."
Of course Fu Qinghai knew why Wokuotai wanted to do this. This group of white-scarred warriors urgently needed to rush back to the solar system to complete their mission and participate in the subsequent battle against the traitors. But now they are unable to perform subspace jumps, so they have been traveling at sub-light speed. Sailing at a tortuous speed in the vast universe, at this speed, even if fuel and supplies are not considered, by the time they arrive in the solar system, the rebels and loyalists will have already decided the winner.
The reason why the frigate is now unable to make subspace jumps is that the navigator is affected by the violent subspace storm and cannot find suitable nodes and paths in the subspace.
With Wokuotai's character, it's normal for him to show off to Van Leer.
Judging from Van Leer's reaction, it seems that he is already used to it.
"Ahem." Talal coughed lightly, signaling for Ogedai to return to the topic.
Wo Kuotai understood, turned to face everyone, and said: "Today is the day when Little Locke is officially promoted to the glorious and great White Scar. I invite you all to witness this scene. The wartime situation is special. There are no complicated rituals in the monastery. All of us Keep it simple.”
With that said, Wo Kuotai turned to face Fu Qinghai and said loudly:
"Today, you break away from the rank of mortals and become the Emperor's closest descendant - Astartes, and become the most powerful warrior under the Khan - Orudo of Jaghatai. In the future, when you gallop across the universe When you travel across the stars and seas, preach the truth of the empire, regain the homeland of mankind, and trample on the skulls of your enemies, don’t forget today, don’t forget the promise you made today!”
"This is not Quanzhou Monastery, then you should face the direction of Holy Terra, kneel down on one knee, and follow me in the oath..."
Fu Qinghai did as he was told.
After the oath-taking session, Fu Qinghai stood up, and Wo Kuotai said to Fu Qinghai:
"From today onwards, you must separate from your past self and abandon your past name. You will become a brand new self. Give yourself a Chogris-style name, which will help you integrate into the legion."
Wo Kuotai had mentioned this matter to him before, and Fu Qinghai had already thought of the answer.
Fu Qinghai said loudly: "Qingshan, my name is Qingshan."
Originally, he didn't like Locke, a three-letter name that was too simple.
The name "Qingshan" reminded him of an online novel he had read more than ten years ago in his previous life on Earth. It was also the first online novel he had ever read. The characters and characters in it were still fresh in his memory. new.
"Very good, a great name." Wo Kuotai patted Fu Qinghai's shoulder approvingly, "It reminds me of Lushan, a powerful warrior from the Dawn of Dawn Brotherhood."
Then, Wokuotai handed over a small bowl of black viscous liquid and said: "This is the highly toxic potion I asked Master Quinto to prepare for me. You can put a little of it on the blade, and then carve your own mark on your face." Scar, the promotion ceremony is complete."
Fu Qinghai solemnly took the small bowl of poison.
Why use highly toxic potions? This is because the physical recovery ability of Space Marines is too strong. Scratches with ordinary sharp objects cannot leave scars on the bodies of Space Marines. Tattoo pigments used by mortals cannot leave color on the bodies of Space Marines. , so corrosive poison can only be used to maintain the traditional customs of Chogris warriors.
The normal Space Marine promotion ceremony is an internal matter of the Space Marine Legion. Generally, it only needs to be witnessed within the company. There is no need to invite outsiders to witness it. Why did Wo Kuotai insist on holding this promotion ceremony on the bridge today? Fu Qinghai guessed that it was still the same. reason--
Fu Qinghai's process of becoming a space warrior did not follow normal procedures.
And Wo Kuotai's move was to tell everyone on the ship in a big way that I, Wo Kuotai, am dedicated to serving the public and upright.
