Edge of the Apocalypse

The scholastic level of Dawn's Blade is divided into four levels: beginner, elementary, middle, and senior. Only those who have completed advanced courses and obtained qualified credits will be awarded a diploma. A Dawn Blade's graduation certificate, let alone an important qualification assessment certificate within the family, even if it is placed in the Federation, it is tantamount to a golden key. Many important federal institutions can be opened for this certificate. Of course, not many students graduate from Dawn's Blade every year.

For more people, all they get is a certificate of completion.

Dawn Blade does not impose a mandatory time for students to study, that is to say, in theory, you can completely soak from the age of 18 to 80, as long as you can afford the high annual tuition. Many students will not be able to graduate from the college for one reason or another, but just get a certificate of completion. But even if it is a certificate, if the intermediate course can be completed, it can be reused in the family.

Freshmen like Allen naturally have to take the entry-level courses first. But even for introductory courses, Allen got a long list of courses. In the next three months, he will complete a series of brief history of federal history, basic mathematics, brief theory of biology, brief history of cosmic geography, summary of source power system, introduction to combat techniques, basic warfare, summary of family management, etc. Subject.

Seeing these course lists, Allen truly admired Adele from the bottom of his heart. Adele, who had left the college the next day, had already completed the intermediate courses and received the highest credits in her class. If there are no accidents, the lady of the Morsen family will graduate from Dawn's Blade in another year.

A graduation certificate is enough for Adele to knock on the door of the Family Presbyterian Church and earn a firm position for herself in the Presbyterian Church.

On the second day of enrollment, Allen's course officially started.

The first class he will take on this day is a brief book of cosmic geography, which will help Allen establish a perfect view of the universe. This class is held in a spacious classroom located in the main building of the teaching department, which can accommodate 100 people at the same time. The seats are spacious and comfortable, but there are crowded tables and chairs on both sides, which are prepared for civilians at their own expense.

Allen took a seat near the corner and looked around. There were not many students sitting in the same area with him. Sitting in twos and threes. At this moment, a touch of ink suddenly floated in front of his eyes, and Vera, who was in black and black dress, sat in front of Alan. Even if it was a theory class, Vera still took her drawing board and charcoal pen. It seemed that these things were always inseparable wherever they went.

The front door of the classroom was pushed open, and a tall and thin doctor walked in. Under the gray hair, there was a thin face, and his eyes blocked by thick lenses glanced at the students in the classroom. The doctor introduced himself: "You can call me Dirk. In the next period of time, you probably You will see me often. I will teach the three courses of cosmic geography, federal history, and basic mathematics. You probably won't like me because my assessment has always been very strict, but that is also three months later. "

"Now, let's go straight to the topic." Professor Dirk lowered his head and glanced at the students from the eyes exposed behind the lens: "Don't underestimate this introductory course. It will let you recognize your position and your identity. From the proud family, even this planet, is actually not even a dust in the vast universe. In the face of an infinite universe, even the gods have to lower their noble heads. As for you, just It's not an exaggeration to have five bodies on the ground."

"Respect the universe and know how to be in awe, so that you can find your own foothold in the universe. Only when you have a fulcrum can you explore and conquer. Otherwise, you are some poor reptiles. When you look up and see a leaf, you think you are. Conquered the universe!"

Looking at the little faces in the classroom, they were confused, serious, or laughing. Dr. Dirk murmured in his heart, "There should be some applause at this time, idiots!" Unfortunately, the students did not buy the doctor’s account, so Dr. Dirk can only continue to say: "Before taking you to the real universe , I will tell you an interesting story..."

The doctor paused, looking forward to the excited expressions of the students, but what he could see was a few boys already yawning. Dr. Dirk shook his head and said: "This story is about a shooter, a sharpshooter, his marksmanship is very powerful. You can make a hole every ten centimeters in a target, and live on this target. A two-dimensional intelligent life, for them, the target is the entire world, the entire universe!"

"Their scientists discovered this law after observing their own world: every ten centimeters in the universe, there must be a hole!" Dr. Dirk lifted his glasses and said, "What a sad theory, they They regard a kind of random behavior as the law of their own universe. Look, what a narrow understanding this is. They did not explore the wider universe, but defined everything within their own line of sight."

"I hope that through this story, you can take a longer-term perspective. Use a broader and far-reaching vision to look at the almost infinite world we live in."

Then finally enter the formal theory class, perhaps those aristocratic children have heard of what Dr. Dirk said. But for Allen, everything is fresh. He is like a sponge, constantly absorbing what the doctor said. After one day, Allen had a preliminary understanding of the entire universe.

Today's cosmic geography does not actually originate from the Federation, but refers to the knowledge system of Ida Huaxing. After all, compared to the young planet Earth, Idahua Star, which has existed for an unknown number of years, is more qualified to regulate the cognition of the universe. Idahuastar uses the Gat star field where it is located as the center of the universe, dividing this infinite space into nine star fields and 36,000 sectors. All known planets are located and coded according to their positions in the sector, thus laying the foundation for advanced warfare in the universe.

As Dr. Dirk said, the earth is only one of these countless planets, looking at the entire universe, it is almost as small as dust.

The afternoon course is about basic warfare, but the knowledge taught is related to advanced warfare between planets.

"The universe is turbulent and chaotic! Stability and order are only short-lived dynamic balances. The essence of the universe is chaotic turbulence, while the essence of civilization is war and aggression! Look at the history of our own planet, which civilization Wasn't it produced in the flames of war? More than four hundred years ago, before the Battle of Dawn, our planet was like an egg. At that time, we played the role of colonization. Fortunately, we were supported by Idahua. We were able to get rid of this embarrassing role. And over the next four hundred years ago, we worked hard to develop the military's combat power, learned the space transmission technology of the Idahua stars, and built a rainbow bridge near the moon that could be transmitted to outer space. This Everything, let us have the capital to participate in advanced wars in the universe, let us transform from colonized to invader!"

Professor Randolph, who is in charge of this course, is not tall, but very strong. He himself was a retired lieutenant/general of the army and was hired by Dawn Blade as a tutor in warfare. Randolph waved his big fist. With short hair on his head and eyes wide open, he roared like a soldier about to enter the battlefield.

"Professor, what is the difference between us and the Nirm people back then? We are invaders as well?" a student stood up and asked.

"Of course!" Professor Randolph sneered: "First of all, we did not advertise how great we are. The essence of launching war is also for plunder. But please remember that our invasion and plundering are controlled. Even in In this process, we will assist the planets of low-dimensional civilizations to accelerate development and benefit each other in this process. As for the Nirm, their lunatics and demons from the Yorton star field, what they did was neither invasion nor Colonization. It’s extraction! It’s destruction! They don’t care about the life and death of the planet, nor do they care about the long-term benefits. Whenever those short-sighted **** go to a planet, they will only use inferior means to squeeze out the energy and materials of a planet, and finally let The planet becomes the Death Star. Both creatures and civilizations will be completely erased by them!"

"Finally, this young master. You can sit here and listen to the class, and you have to thank your family and the colonial stars who provide a source of wealth behind your family. This is the difference!"

About what Professor Randolph said ~www.readwn.com~Allen is easier to understand. He grew up on the surface, and he was in the company of snow wolves, and most of what he saw was the cruelest side of nature. It is natural for him to eat the weak and the strong, but even the snow wolf, as a predator, rarely kills the prey. Bai Fang sometimes even orders the wolves not to prey on prey that is still in their infancy, which is equivalent to another form of captivity.

Of course, Outland War is much more complicated than this. It is related to the collision of two different civilizations in more than four hundred years of history. Regardless of the Federation or the major families, a set of standard procedures for invasion, colonization, control, and profit-making in foreign wars has long been formed.

At the end of this class, Randolph looked at the students and said: "War is never sacred, more injustice. There will be words such as sacred and justice, but the standpoint and starting point are different. And the nature of war It is always ugly. As you who will eventually set foot on the battlefield of the outer domain in the future, you should face this point as soon as possible. But war is not all bad. One thing is worthy of recognition. War is a catalyst for the development of civilization."

"This is the end of today's class!"

This day's class made Alan feel uneasy for a long time. Just like lighting a fire, building a circuit, and bringing Alan into the door of the world of Yuanli. The lectures given by the two instructors today brought Alan into another world. These courses and knowledge are definitely not something that a surface boy can hear or imagine. At this time, Allen had to lament the wonder of fate.

He has lost a lot, and now, he finally has some gains. And these gains will be more and more in the foreseeable future.

God is fair, he closes a door, but always opens a window for you. But many times, we only saw the door, but not the window.
