After a while, Ye Ling finally came back to his senses and coughed dryly to draw Jessica's attention.
The goddess beauty turned around: "Well, you're here."
With her ability, she only discovered Ye Ling's arrival at this moment, which shows that what she was thinking about just now made her distracted.
"Yeah, I didn't keep you waiting for a long time, right?" Ye Ling stepped forward and said, "What are you thinking about? I didn't interrupt you, right?"
"Haha, it's nothing!" Jessica pointed to the sea in the distance and said to Ye Ling: "It's very calm and beautiful, right?"
Ye Ling didn't know the meaning of her words, but he still nodded: "Yes, before this, I never imagined that the Endless Sea would be like this."
Jessica said leisurely: "Before this, my family was as peaceful as this ocean. My father, mother, and brother and I lived happily. But who knew that our lives would also be different?
Like this ocean, it turns out that it will not always be so calm and beautiful, waiting for
Ours was a big storm! At that time, I was not too sensible, and my father also deliberately concealed his illness. It was not until one day that my father suddenly left that I learned about the family affairs and understood a truth. No matter how calm I am,
Behind the ocean, there may be unexpected big storms hidden!”
Listening to her family's story, Ye Ling didn't know what to say to comfort her.
Jessica added: "It would be great if you could appear in my life earlier. Maybe our family can survive this storm safely."
Ye Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Even if you knew me at that time, I couldn't help you because your great-grandfather hasn't found me yet. Even if he does, I'm still young and the effectiveness of my blood probably won't be enough."
Jessica said: "Then, I want to change my statement. It would be great if you could be born earlier and be found by my great-grandfather earlier!"
Ye Ling was a little speechless: "Then, the person standing opposite you now will be an uncle."
The two looked at each other and smiled, suddenly understanding each other better.
Ye Ling touched her nose: "Miss Jessica, forget those things. Everyone will encounter misfortune in their life, just like me. Didn't I lose my father early like you? Moreover, my
Your parents are no longer alive, but you, at least you still have your mother and brother. You are much better than me. No matter what happens, life will always go on. Cherishing the present is more important than mourning the past."
"Cherishing the present is more important than mourning the past..." Jessica muttered twice: "Huh, thank you for your comfort. I feel much better."
She was in a good mood tonight, but when she came to the deck and looked at the sponge, Jessica couldn't help but think of the happy family in the past. At that time, her father often took her to see the sea.
Moreover, when encountering a storm, her father would always say something to her: "Jessica, even if you encounter a storm, don't be afraid, because no matter how big the storm is, it will always pass."
In the past, Jessica never understood why her father would always say that to her, but later she understood that her father was using other methods to prepare herself mentally earlier.
To be honest, she almost fell over when it happened. You must know that she was still a child at that time. Her father passed away and her mother was critically ill. It would be difficult for anyone to bear such a heavy blow suddenly, but
At that time, my elder brother gave up his studies and became a member of the family.
She had to shoulder the burden and continued to take care of her. Seeing her brother getting haggard day by day, but forcing a smile in front of her, Jessica finally woke up. She decided to face it calmly, and believed that she needed to share the burden on her brother's shoulders.
burden, because she is also a member of the Tifa family.
So, the moment she received the breath of her great-grandfather's soul, Jessica resolutely left the comfortable Star of God and embarked on a dangerous journey alone, crossing dozens of large and small planets to the Glory Star.
No one knows how much suffering she has suffered and how much she was almost killed in the belly of a monster, but all of this made Jessica more mature.
No matter how big the storm is, it will always pass. Father, you are right. Now, we have seen the dawn of hope!
The next morning, all the students were summoned to the deck again by Colonel Marley.
"At the current speed of travel, it will take about five days for us to arrive at the Temple of Martial Arts. During this period, we may encounter various difficulties, especially sea beasts in the endless sea, which may climb onto the warship at any time to fight against them.
We attack and destroy, but on this first day you can rest assured that the battleships will still be
Our soldiers are guarding it, but starting from tomorrow, you will take over their tasks and be responsible for the safety of this battleship! Now, I will divide you into smaller combat units and distribute them according to the principle of balance of strength, so you
You may not necessarily match up with classmates or familiar friends from your own college!”
Then Colonel Marley began to recite the lists and personnel of each team. The number of first-year students from the Star Continent Super Academy invited by the Martial God Temple this time was more than 1,600. According to the different standards of the Radiant Alliance Navy and Army, each group has 100 people.
, with ten people in each team, divided into sixteen regiments, a total of one hundred and sixty teams.
It wasn't until the list of first-year students was almost finished that Ye Ling found out where he belonged, because he was assigned to the 157th Squadron of the 16th Regiment, which was at the bottom.
"From now on, you will carry out tasks as a team. Your team is a collective. The performance of each member will also affect his team and the ratings of others. Therefore, I hope you can cooperate with each other.
, win honor for your team! In addition, what you have to do today is to get to know your teammates in the shortest possible time and elect a captain..."
Colonel Marley paused and said: "You will not appoint the leader of the team like high school, but you will decide on your own. This is also your most important task today. A competent captain can make your team more harmonious.
Unity makes the battle easier, so you
We must nominate the most suitable candidate without selfishness! As for the candidate for the group leader, it will be determined among the ten captains of each group based on the performance of each group in three days. Now, the personnel of each group can
Gather and carry out your team activities, disband!"
Different from the Star Tribulation internship mission in high school, this casual internship mission during the trip to the Temple of Martial Arts gave the students more freedom. The Navy would not teach everyone what to do step by step, but would designate a general
Guide the direction, and then let everyone handle it on their own, which is very helpful in cultivating students' independence.
After going through the Star Tribulation training camp in high school, they are no longer complete rookies and should know how to choose the best leaders.
The members of each team quickly gathered in the activity area arranged by their team, and Ye Ling also came to the 157th team where he was.
The regiment to which this team belongs is rather special. It is not the standard one hundred people, because the total number of students in the first-year training camp is 1,603. No matter how they are allocated, there must be at least one team that does not meet the standards, and the third
The Twenty Regiment has three more people than the other regiments.
According to the distribution principle of balanced strength, this can mean that the average individual strength of the 45th regiment is lower than that of other regiments.
