"Before the graduation ceremony, there is an important decision that needs to be announced to you."
After Lin Yi looked around, he solemnly said, "This decision comes from the capital Supreme Command Center. It is related to your present and more to the future of our country."
The students held their breath and concentrated, guessing what the news would be.
Lin Yi continued, "Based on the success of this operation and the huge strategic value demonstrated by Source Energy Warrior, Supreme Command has made the following official decision after careful study:
"First, the original "East Peak Training Camp" will be upgraded and restructured to "East Peak Source Martial Military Academy" from now on."
There was a burst of uncontrollable exclamations and commotion in the audience.
Military Academy!
This means that they are no longer cadets summoned temporarily for training, but military students in the true sense.
Before they could digest the news, Lin Yi's voice sounded again, throwing out an even heavier news:
"Second, in order to cope with the threats of the new era and integrate and develop source energy forces, Supreme Command decided to form a new independent military service, "Source Martial Strategic Defense Army"."
"It will be endowed with a strategic-level positioning, and it will be a cutting-edge shield and sword to protect the country and deal with all unknown challenges of Abyssal Beast and even the future."
"Source Martial Army?!"
This word made all the students' hearts skip a beat.
Independent military branch! Strategic level force!
What a noble position this is.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yi's eyes became extremely sharp. He looked at everyone in the audience and said word by word:
"And you."
Lin Yi waved his arm and pointed at the entire queue.
"All of you, as the first batch of students of East Peak Training Camp, will automatically become the first batch of graduates of "East Peak Source Martial Military Academy"."
"At the same time, you will also be the first batch of officers and the backbone of "Source Martial Strategic Defense Army"."
"Wow!!"
Like dropping cold water into a hot pan of oil, the entire queue boiled instantly.
A huge sense of surprise and glory swept over every student.
Because they transformed from Training Camp and became the first batch of people in history to graduate from this extraordinary college.
Moreover, he was not only a soldier, but also a founding member and officer of a new strategic military branch.
Excitement, ecstasy, disbelief, huge pride.
Various emotions were mixed on the faces of the students.
Many people's faces turned red with excitement, they clenched their fists tightly, and wished they could shout to the sky to vent their emotions.
At this moment, all the sweat, blood and tears, all the hardships and dangers seemed to have found the ultimate meaning and value.
Lin Yi stood on the stage and looked at the excited crowd, but did not stop them from venting their emotions.
He could understand the excitement.
After a moment, he raised his hand and slowly suppressed the noise in the scene.
The cheers gradually subsided, but the flames burning in the students' eyes became more intense.
"This honor belongs to you, and you have earned it with your performance today and your past efforts!"
Lin Yi's voice sounded again. "But behind this honor is a heavier responsibility."
"From today on, what you shoulder is no longer just personal gains and losses, but also the entire country's exploration and expectations of new strength."
"You will be Spark, the cornerstone. The future East Peak Military Academy will be defined by you, and the future Source Martial Army will be shaped by your own hands."
His words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of every student, causing the excitement to gradually settle into a heavier and firmer sense of mission.
"Therefore."
His voice reached everyone's ears clearly, "Today, there is no traditional paper certificate to prove your graduation."
Lin Yi continued, "For Eastern Edge, for a soldier who is about to shoulder a special mission, the best proof is the power he can control and his determination to protect others."
He raised his arm slightly, "So, your graduation certificate is also the equipment given to the first batch of officers by the academy. This is it."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Yi didn't see any obvious movements. A square box about a foot square, covered with dark red velvet, seemed to be held up by invisible hands. It flew smoothly from behind the rostrum to the front of the stage and hovered beside Lin Yi.
Lin Yi picked up the first box, uncovered the red cloth, and opened the lid.
I saw that the box was lined with black velvet, and in the center, a badge that seemed to be cast from dark red flaming metal and embossed with the words "Eastern Edge" lay quietly, shining brightly.
Surrounding it are five pieces of miniature equipment with different shapes and the same shining metallic color.
Wrist rings, knee pads, arm rings, amulets, ear hooks.
They are placed in a five-pointed star shape in a precise position, guarding the flame emblem in the center, making the whole look both mysterious and powerful.
These are a set of rare equipment that Lin Yi has carefully selected from the blueprint inventory, which is very suitable for these beginners.
Its core equipment is the badge about the size of a coin.
The simple and sharp words "Eastern Edge" were specially embossed in the center by the operator of the equipment manufacturing instrument.
This badge named [East Peak Emblem·Core Tuner] is not only an identity mark and graduation certificate, but also the core of the entire equipment.
Its internal precision structure can produce a special collaborative resonance field, which can provide two weak amplifications.
Weak source energy control amplification: Activate the built-in source energy resonance stance to improve the wearer's control accuracy and stability of his own source energy.
Weak neural response optimization: releases special fluctuations, slightly stimulates the wearer's nervous system, and slightly improves neural response speed and information processing capabilities.
Because it cannot place Source Energy Crystal, it can only be activated by its own source energy, and from the literal point of view of the blueprint, it only provides two weak amplitudes. At first glance, it seems very ordinary.
Indeed, in fact, if East Peak Emblem is used alone, the effect will be the same, and it can only be regarded as an ordinary piece of equipment.
But after Lin Yi was paired with several other defective pieces of equipment, everything changed completely.
[Fury Pulse Wristband], when activated, can instantly stimulate acupuncture points to a large extent, erupting with extremely strong force and high-frequency vibration, causing the next attack to have strong knockback and concussion effects.
This thing is extremely effective. One blow is enough to knock back a person with 80 Source Energy Unit or seriously injure a Abyssal Beast with 200 Source Energy Unit.
However, this thing has obvious flaws.
Because its pulse is too violent, it will instantly interfere with the wearer's own source energy operation, which will lead to a decrease in source energy control within the next few minutes. It is easy to lose accuracy in performing skills, and it will put a heavy burden on the nerves. There will be a short-term lag in response after use.
Therefore, it is nicknamed "shaky hand" wristband.
The [Source Energy Control Amplification] and [Nerve Response Optimization] provided by East Peak Emblem can effectively offset some of the side effects of reduced control and delayed response, making it relatively controllable, thus greatly increasing the actual combat value.
The same is true for several other items. The side effects include loss of direction [Gale Rider Knee Guards], slight source energy interference [Energy-Draining Barrier Arm Ring], and [Surging Heart Berserk Talisman] causing a decrease in source energy control, which was formerly known as the "top" talisman.
Taken alone, any one of these five pieces of equipment seems to have mediocre and even useless functions.
But they use East Peak Emblem as the core, and after reducing their side effects, their practicality has been greatly improved: the wrist guards provide control, the knee pads provide acceleration, the armbands provide protection, and the amulets provide bursts.
In addition.
In addition to these five-piece sets, when Lin Yi learned that the official had also obtained the blueprint for the portable source energy Detector, each student was equipped with an additional portable source energy Detector.
Needless to say, the importance of this thing goes without saying.
Not only can it detect the surrounding source energy fluctuations and Abyssal Beast energy reactions, its most important function is the built-in over-distance encrypted communication module, which can achieve instant communication within a certain range.
And this scope is enough to cover the whole world.
