Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

TL: GoldenLung

"I've heard some things about your situation, Major Lan Xuanyu, but it seems that my understanding was not profound enough. I apologize for that. This training may not be very meaningful to you. However, you still need to learn the basic military rules and laws. I will immediately arrange for you to enter the barracks and assign you a place to stay. Because of your special nature, you will be assigned together. May I ask what level of Sky Fighter missions you can complete?"

"We shouldn't have a problem completing a level five mission," Lan Xuanyu said.

Shen Junjie's expression changed slightly. A level five Sky Fighter mission was already a high level. He knew that he had underestimated the strength of these young people. Even if they graduated from Shrek Academy, if they only graduated from the Outer Court, they would not be able to perform a level five Sky Fighter mission under normal circumstances.

"Okay, I understand. We will have someone send you to our Dragon Three living area and arrange your accommodation. Please wait for further notice."

"Okay."

Although the training had just started, Shen Junjie knew that military training had little significance for Lan Xuanyu and the others. It would only affect other field officers here. It was better to make other arrangements.

Shen Junjie hurriedly left, and Lan Xuanyu and the others returned to the ranks of field officers.

Ye Lingtong came to Lan Xuanyu and asked in confusion, "What did Head Shen want with you guys?"

"Is that so? What arrangements?" Ye Lingtong couldn't help but ask again.

Lan Xuanyu had not spoken yet, but Qian Lei beside him had already said, "This doesn't seem like something you should be asking. Isn't it a military rule that you can't inquire about other people's tasks in the army without permission? This is military confidential information."

Qian Lei had also recognized Ye Lingtong by now, but he never had a good impression of this girl. Ye Lingtong was too self-centered and too strong-willed.

Lan Mengqin gently squeezed his hand, and Qian Lei looked at her with confusion, only to receive a look of admiration that instantly boosted his spirits.

Lan Xuanyu didn't say anything, he just politely smiled and nodded at Ye Lingtong.

At this point, He Qingyi had already walked over and signaled to Lan Xuanyu's group of seven to follow him. It was time for them to leave.

Ye Lingtong watched them leave, feeling a sense of loss for some reason.

Her former classmates have already gone their separate ways. The other excellent students from Tianluo Academy have been left behind by her. She had reached a cultivation level close to six rings, which was a remarkable achievement at her age. The academy teachers said that she had the potential to enter the War God Temple in the future.

However, years of hard work and dedication had cost Ye Lingtong all her spare time. Suddenly seeing Lan Xuanyu, who still seemed so outstanding, touched her heart.

But for Lan Xuanyu, meeting Ye Lingtong was just a small episode.

After leaving the simulation cabin, the shuttle was already waiting outside. They were instructed to go back and pack their things before being taken to the living area of the Dragon 3 warship.

The living area of the Dragon King-class escort ship, although not comparable to that of the mothership, was still quite spacious and located in the middle of the warship. Lan Xuanyu and his team were assigned to the living quarters of senior officers, which consisted of a series of connected metal houses. The other rooms were around 100 square meters each and included a dedicated living room, bedroom, and bathroom. The military provided food uniformly, and if anyone wanted to improve the quality of their meals, they had to buy it themselves from the living area, so there was no kitchen in the accommodations.

Lan Xuanyu's room was as large as 200 square meters and had more complete facilities. This was the accommodation corresponding to the rank of Major General. The others were actually benefiting from his status, otherwise,cColonel officers were not qualified to live in this type of accommodation. A room of 100 square meters corresponded to the ranks of Colonel and Major General.

The room was simply decorated, but very comfortable. Especially in Lan Xuanyu's room, there was some soft decoration. The walls were surprisingly soft to the touch, without the coldness of metal. The floor was covered with a carpet, not a luxurious brand, but it was neat and clean, and comfortable to walk on with bare feet.

Moreover, there was a small conference room in Lan Xuanyu's room that could accommodate eight people.

Such sophisticated facilities could only be found inside large warships like Dragon-class escort ships. After Lan Xuanyu and his team settled in, someone led them on a tour of the living area.

The living area was not small and was open to everyone. Whether officers or soldiers, they could come to the living area for leisure without being on duty. There were various facilities such as bars, cafes, game rooms, and restaurants. There was no school on the escort ship. If the soldiers here had children, they would be sent to the school on the mother ship to study. The mother ship was the safest and also had enough space.

The living area here was more for leisure and entertainment. Lan Xuanyu even saw hourly rooms for rent.

Ordinary soldiers lived in dormitories with multiple people, and in the space fleet, it was not forbidden for male and female soldiers to fall in love. After all, life in space as lonely, without some adjustment, would drive people crazy. Hourly rooms were naturally prepared for ordinary soldiers, with cheap prices and booming business, often requiring reservations.

At a certain level, officers in the military no longer had this issue, as they all had their own exclusive rooms. Therefore, it was much easier for officers to find a partner within the Space Fleet. Having their own independent room was also a goal that many soldiers worked hard towards.

There was no class system within the Space Fleet, and graduating from a prestigious school did not necessarily guarantee becoming a senior officer. Here, it was all about strength and military merit. Even an ordinary soldier could accumulate enough merit to become an officer if they performed well in battle.

The term of service for soldiers in the Space Fleet was ten years, while officers' terms varied according to their rank. Among all professions in the federation, soldiers in the Space Fleet had the highest income. If an ordinary soldier served for ten years and returned to an administrative planet, their income would be enough for them to live a wealthy life for the rest of their lives.

So, many retired soldiers from the space fleet were very popular among women. The federation regarded every retired soldier as a hero. Of course, they could be called up as reservists at any time before the age of 60.

The generous treatment also made more people hope to become space warriors.

Relative to other positions in the space fleet, soldiers had a certain degree of risk, especially the mecha soldiers who participated in landing operations. They often needed to fight on the front lines against the enemy. The safety of the ship commanders was much higher. After all, the larger the warship, the higher its safety during fleet combat.

What surprised Lan Xuanyu and the others was that the living quarters did not have the cold and tough style of the military, but instead were very warm and comfortable. From the colors to the music, the feeling of warmth was like being back in a big city. It was comfortable and lazy.

The most common place was the bar, but each bar had a warning sign at the entrance. It warned the soldiers that they could only drink during their leave, and if there was any trouble while drinking, they would be punished by military law.

Lan Xuanyu inquired and found out that drinking in bars was a common hobby among all the soldiers. However, the alcohol could only be consumed on the premises and could not be taken away.

The construction of living areas in the space fleet was highly emphasized, even for meteor-class assault ships and meteor-class reconnaissance ships without living quarters. After an extended period of being in the field, they could return to the mother ship or the affiliated escort or warship for rest. This balance between tension and relaxation allowed the fleet to maintain strong combat capability at all times.

Lan Xuanyu and his team didn't have any mission at the moment, so they wandered around in the living area. The fleet's living area had an interesting feature, which Lan Xuanyu discovered: no matter what level of military personnel, they would take off their rank before entering the living area.
