Accompanied by Zhang Weidong, Lin Yi quickly walked into the communication room where the atmosphere was obviously different from usual. Xiao Zhang, the correspondent on duty, saw them and immediately said nervously into the microphone:
"Report to the chief, Major Lin Yi has arrived."
After speaking, he almost carefully handed another dedicated communication headset to Lin Yi with both hands, his eyes full of awe.
Lin Yi took it, put it on, and said calmly, "Hello, I am Lin Yi."
A clear and capable response came from the other end of the communication. "Hello, Major Lin, please wait a moment, the chief will call you soon."
The waiting time was very short, less than half a minute, and the voice of an old man who was calm, gentle and a little bit old came through the radio waves:
"Major Lin Yi, hello, I am Li Zhenguo."
Lin Yi responded immediately, maintaining the correct tone of a soldier. "Hello, chief, please give me instructions."
"Haha, relax, relax, we just have a casual chat."
Li Zhenguo's laughter came through the earphones, and he seemed quite easy-going, "I can't talk about instructions. First of all, on behalf of Supreme Command, I would like to express my warm congratulations and heartfelt thanks to you again!"
"'Dawn Operation' played well, you deserve the most credit, thank you for your hard work! How are you doing, can your body still bear the stress?"
"Nie Chang specifically mentioned in the report that your last blow consumed a huge amount of money. How do you feel now? Can the recovery conditions here in the settlement still keep up?"
There was obvious concern in this opening statement, as if he was talking about family matters.
"This is because I am afraid that I will be nervous, and I am trying to make the conversation more relaxed. Comrade Li is quite considerate."
Lin Yi immediately felt the taste, because in his previous life, when he was a senior executive, he often spoke in this way to the soldiers at the grassroots level.
Fortunately, he didn't feel too uncomfortable. After all, after entering the universe and joining Reliate Mercenary Corps, he quickly became a grassroots member again.
Therefore, Lin Yi replied directly, "Thank you for your concern, chief. The consumption is indeed not small, but it is still within the controllable range. It is recovering and will not affect subsequent tasks." After saying that, he added, "The logistics support of the settlement is in place."
His answer was concise and objective, neither overly modest nor exaggerated.
"That's good. The body is the capital of revolution. You must pay attention to rest."
After exchanging a few words and narrowing the distance, Li Zhenguo naturally turned to the topic, and the tone became a little more formal.
"Major Lin, I am looking for you this time, mainly because I want to hear your professional opinion. Regarding the 'Vortex Source Energy Condenser', General Staff has a preliminary idea, and plans to use it as the core to establish a high-level talent training camp, pool resources, and accelerate the training of our own Source Energy practitioners. How do you think the feasibility of this plan is?"
Lin Yi felt a slight movement in his heart.
Training camp?
Unexpectedly, because of his appearance, he released a teaching video and obtained the crucial Vortex Source Energy Condenser in advance. This top institution, which later became the cradle of the strong Xia Kingdom, code-named "East Blade", would actually have its prototype concept appear so many years in advance.
He almost did not hesitate and immediately replied affirmatively, "Reporting to the head, I think this idea is very feasible and very necessary."
How could he disagree?
In his previous life, he himself was a member of the "East Blade" training camp, but when he participated, the training camp was no longer a basic camp designed to help newcomers "get started" and lay a solid foundation.
At that time, he was already at the sixth level of Star Dust, and he participated in the "high-level training camp" specially designed for high-level experts to break through bottlenecks, study combat skills, and exchange practical experience. Its facilities, resource allocation, and training intensity were far from what they are now.
But no matter what, the core idea is the same.
In the best environment, resources are concentrated to carry out the most efficient training.
He continued to add, with a professional analysis in his tone. "Source Energy practice, the environment is very important. If you explore in a barren environment, you will get twice the result with half the effort, and you may even be unable to get started because you cannot sense the energy."
"Vortex Source Energy Condenser can create a rich energy environment, which is equivalent to opening the door for beginners to perceive Source Energy, and can also greatly increase the speed of practice."
"Moreover, bringing talented people together, giving them a platform for communication and discussion, and then conducting centralized teaching is a proven and effective method."
Hearing such affirmative and well-reasoned support from Lin Yi, Li Zhenguo on the other end of the communication was obviously relieved, and his tone became more cheerful. "Okay! With your words, we will be more confident."
He took advantage of the situation and made his core request. "So, Major Lin, if this training camp is really launched, we hope that you can be the person to serve as the Chief Instructor. No matter in terms of strength, experience or understanding of Source Energy, you are the best choice. What do you think?"
Lin Yi had already expected this, but after a brief thought, he simply agreed, "Yes, chief. I obey the organization's arrangements and am willing to serve as Chief Instructor."
How could he disagree?
Those who can enter this first batch of training camps must be the top talents carefully selected from the entire army and even the country. They will be the backbone and commander's embryos in the future to fight against Abyss Beast and regain their homeland.
Bringing these future strong men into the training system under your leadership in advance and teaching them through words and deeds is not only a responsibility, but it can also accumulate vital connections, reputation and capable helpers for your future planning, which is of great benefit both publicly and privately.
A strong person with a system behind him is far more efficient than a person fighting alone.
"Very good!" Li Zhenguo said with obvious joy, "With you in charge, this training camp will be half successful. In this way, General Staff will set up a special working group for specific preparation matters, including site selection, personnel selection standards, training outlines, etc., and they will contact you as soon as possible.
"I hope that you, Chief Instructor, can give me your valuable advice and suggestions without hesitation."
"I will do my best where my responsibilities lie." Lin Yi promised.
After the serious talk, Li Zhenguo's tone became more relaxed, as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile, "By the way, Instructor Lin, since you are taking the lead in this training camp, how about giving it a name? Do you have any good ideas?"
This name seems to have already been in Lin Yi's heart.
He answered almost without thinking:
"Just call it 'East Blade'."
"East Vanguard Training Camp?" Li Zhenguo repeated on the other end of the phone.
"Yes." Lin Yi's tone was calm, "East Blade, the east is white, Sharp Blade takes the lead. I hope it can temper the sharpest blade for us in the darkness before dawn and pierce all obstacles."
The other end of the communication was silent for a few seconds, as if he was savoring the meaning of this name.
After a while, the voice of Li Zhenguo came:
"Okay! East Vanguard Training Camp, this name is very good, then it's settled!"
"I look forward to your coming soon, Instructor Lin."
