Chapter 264 Battlefield
Xiao Qi's loud voice echoed in everyone's ears, and he started the assessment without any time to rest.
Everyone invariably felt a certain amount of nervousness, but Lan Xuanyu was one of the few candidates who could keep calm.
At least Qian Lei and Liu Feng around him felt that he was very calm, and when they were with him, they would unconsciously feel a special peace of mind.
What a blessing to have such a teammate!
There are a few people who are as calm as Lan Xuanyu, such as Lan Mengqin, Dong Qianqiu, and the Yuanen Huihui.
One by one, the locators were sent to everyone, and there was also a small supply package.
Lan Xuanyu put on his locator and adjusted it a little. The locator is very simple. They can't see how the recording function is realized. It is very rough, and there is no specific terrain in many places, only the approximate landform and distance are displayed.
The inside of the supply bag is even simpler, three bottles of 500 ml of water, and two pieces of high-calorie compressed food.
Lan Xuanyu jumped on the spot and moved his body. At this time, the trio of Bing Tianliang, Yu Tian, and Lin Donghui had already come over. Dong Qianqiu also pulled Lan Mengqin to his side.
Since it will be transported by a transport plane, no one knows how large and how many transport planes it is. It is naturally the best choice for them to set off together.
Not only on their side, other candidates also gathered in groups of three or five, and most of them were discussing something in a low voice.
Lan Xuanyu has been observing these candidates. He found that these candidates are indeed of high quality. After coming here, very few people showed fear, but many people re-entered a state of excitement. From time to time, their eyes will look at the huge mechas and the battleships in the sky.
Lan Xuanyu himself was also very excited, that was the real battleship! One day, he will become a captain, commanding a battleship, or even a fleet, to fight. What a glorious achievement that would be!
Soon, the distribution is over. The candidates were taken next to a large transport plane and boarded under the command of the military.
The soldiers were all expressionless, and they didn't show any sympathy just because they were children.
The transport plane accelerates and lifts into the air. Lan Xuanyu could see through the porthole that there were more than a dozen soul guidance fighter jets that were lifted off with the transport plane.
There are more than thirty mechs.
These fighters and mechas escorted around the transport aircraft and flew in one direction.
Looking into the sky, the direction of flight at this time seems to be the direction of the blue sun. Of course, this is only relative.
Blue Sun, Purple Sun. Still quite interesting.
The energy of heaven and earth here is very abundant, which is just the opposite of thin air. At least it is conducive to the recovery of the soul master. In the eyes of many candidates, this should also be an important reason why the Federation wants to occupy this place.
Lan Xuanyu has always maintained a calm state, carefully observing everything around him, including the transport plane, including those soldiers, as well as the mechas and soul guidance fighters outside.
This is an ordinary ground-based soul-guiding fighter, which is smaller than an interstellar fighter, but more flexible. Only flight speed and altitude are limited. At most twice the speed of sound.
Lan Xuanyu looked down at the locator on his wrist. On the locator, there was the exact location of the base just now, and the distance to the base now.
The transport plane was flying very fast. In just ten minutes, it was already more than 100 kilometers away from the base.
Looking down from the porthole, they were flying along the edge of the desert, and soon entered a mountainous area. The mountainous terrain was complicated, and there were also some plants. The plants were different from what they had seen before. Most plants are blue and purple.
In another ten minutes, after crossing the mountain range, the distance from the base was more than 200 kilometers. Lan Xuanyu couldn't help but be speechless, returning to the base within three days? Isn't this a fool's dream? This is to cross the entire mountain range. If there are no enemies, it's better to say, if there are enemies...
He just thought of this, when suddenly, there were bursts of roars in front of him. Many candidates hurriedly looked through the porthole.
In the air, the battle has already taken place.
Hundreds of huge, bird-like creatures are attacking them.
These birds are five meters wide with their wings spread out, and their bodies are slender, but they all have two pairs of wings. Their heads and abdomens are relatively large, and their flight speed is not very fast, but they can spit out a stream of purple in their mouths. The red light is like a soul guide ray.
But the army seemed to have gotten used to these monsters. The mechas in front quickly gathered together. They all had thick shields in their hands. The soul-guided energy was released and turned into large energy shields to block the attacks of these strange birds. At the same time, the soul-guided guns and soul-guided rays returned fire.
The soul guidance fighters guarding the two wings also launched an attack on those strange birds.
The strange bird looks rough and fleshy, but the power of the soul-guided ray and soul-guided cannon is also extraordinary. After a while, more than a dozen strange birds were killed, and the other strange birds retreated.
Lan Xuanyu found that among the many mechas, several were moved towards the direction of the previously killed monster bird.
"Uncle, what creatures are those strange birds? Do they have any trophies worth taking back?" Lan Xuanyu asked in a low voice to the warrior sitting beside him.
The soldier glanced at him and said, "We use the simplest names for the creatures here. Just now these are the big-bellied purple eagles. They are good at spewing corrosive venom. That purple-red light is. They have poisonous sacs in their stomachs. All creatures on this planet will have a crystal nucleus in their heads. These crystal cores are very special, and they are the source of their ability to absorb the energy of heaven and earth. It is a bit like the spiritual sea of our soul masters, but it is solidified. If we If soul masters use these crystal cores for auxiliary cultivation, it will be very helpful to improve their spiritual power. Therefore, if you have killed monsters, remember to collect crystal cores and return to the base to exchange for meritorious deeds.”
Lan Xuanyu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard it, a treasure to enhance spiritual power? Never heard of this! Humans have very few spiritual cultivation methods, and they are all extremely precious. Normally, it can only be improved through meditation and some external stimulation plus aging.
The strength of spiritual power is one of the fundamental reasons for the strength of a soul master. In a sense, with the development of soul guidance technology, the role of spiritual power is becoming more and more important, and it is no longer inferior to soul power. .
The creatures on this planet can actually produce products that can enhance their spiritual power. No wonder the Federation attaches so much importance to it, and even sent a federal fleet to suppress it here. Just don't know how far the planet has been developed and colonized.
Lan Xuanyu is not the only smart person. After seeing the battle just now, many students have inquired about the corresponding situation.
Whether the crystal nucleus is brought back to cultivate by itself, or in exchange for merits, it is a pretty good choice! Most candidates see opportunity and are less afraid of danger.
The transport plane flew out for a full forty-five minutes before descending slowly. At this time, judging from the locator, they were already about 500 kilometers away from the base. On the way, I encountered several biological attacks on this planet, some flying, and some even jumped from the ground to attack. Lan Xuanyu and the others also learned the names of some monsters from the military.
The transport plane slowly descended, and the soul-guided fighter plane and mecha escorted it.
When the transport plane reached the air about 200 meters above the ground, it hovered, the cabin door opened, and the ferocious wind suddenly filled the entire cabin.
"Everyone get off the plane and start your assessment." An officer shouted loudly. ( )
