Chapter 69
Chang'an is a city floating in mid-air. Entering Chang'an from below can only be done by helicopters.
I, Zhang Yide, Guan Yunchang, Zhao Zilong, Cao Mengde, Yuan Benchu, Sun Zhongmou, and Sun Shangxiang took off from a warship and flew to Chang'an.
"It's so majestic! It's simply a city in the clouds!" Zhang Yide looked out the window and praised him endlessly.
Cao Mengde said proudly: "What's this? The Yellow Turban Army's drones once planned to attack Chang'an, but at such a high altitude, many drones lost their energy before they flew onto the city wall. The defenders did not even use serious weapons. They only used high-pressure water guns on fire trucks to rush down the remaining drones..."
Guan Yunchang looked at him with a slanted eye: "It's not a bragging thing, right? Use a high-pressure water gun to deal with the drone?! And it also wiped out the opponent's army?!"
Cao Mengde spread his hands and said, "This is the truth. If you don't believe me, please ask Yuan Benchu."
Yuan Benchu ignored Cao Mengde at all, and he only cared about talking to Zhao Zilong.
"Xiao Zhao, I see that you are agile, flexible in mind, and have a lot of knowledge. Why don't I recommend several 'big guys' from Chang'an Research Institute to you? I'll have some advice in the future."
Zhao Zilong said lightly: "You have to worry, I plan to see the situation first."
After saying that, he winked at me.
Actually, I understand his thoughts. Since Zhao Zilong and I received the Chang'an transfer order, the news spread like wildfire and soon reached everyone's ears - maybe we were the last ones to know. But no matter what, everyone knows where we are going in the future.
So not only Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu came to congratulate him, but also Ma Teng and others came to make contact.
One is the new major and the other is the supervisor of key projects. It may be difficult to avoid being noticed.
Considering that we would be assigned to a new place as soon as we entered Chang'an, we all brought our luggage with us.
My luggage this time is relatively simple, with only one suitcase.
This is the crystallization of Sun Zhongmou's skillful hands. The robot's body was dismantled into pieces and broken into pieces. After folding, it could just fill a suitcase.
But it is still alive. Sun Zhongmou felt this way when he opened it; I also felt this way when he stuffed it into the trunk.
However, you can't throw it into the sea, right?
How many traces of novice will there be on this thing?
Last night I dreamed that this thing was resurrected, and started a massacre in the army, killing all the acquaintances.
In the end, I was the only one left. It pressed me into a pool of blood, looking at everyone's corpses, and those corpses were staring at me, as if condemning.
Then I woke up.
The people on the helicopter were still chatting and laughing. No one except Sun Zhongmou and I knew that there was a body in my suitcase. No, it should be said that it was the wreckage of a half-human and half-machine.
Because Chang'an is too large, our helicopter climbed for about an hour before it really rose above the city wall.
Through the city wall, we can overlook the interior of this prosperous city. If Chang'an is compared to a mountain, it may be more appropriate. It has the highest middle and then extends gently to the surroundings, covering the mountain with buildings of all sizes.
The styles of these buildings are different. There are ancient buildings with red tiles, spherical and sci-fi buildings composed of fully transparent materials, and even stadiums, star-observatorys, and huge artificial fountains...
"Compared with the mountain village we lived in before, this is a completely different world!" Zhang Yide sighed.
The plane landed on the apron of the airport on the west side. In addition to us, there were several other planes. It seemed that they were all outstanding in this war. Some were wearing military uniforms and some were wearing dresses.
After the experience of war, those who can return from the battlefield must be the strongest among the strong.
Cao Mengde whispered to me: "I guess you will be received by the Chang'an Parliament, formally grant you the official position of major, and then arrange your residence in Chang'an."
"What about us?" Zhang Yide asked anxiously.
Cao Mengde shrugged: "I can't say that, but your boss has been promoted to major, so you can at least be a lieutenant."
"Don't expect too much." Guan Yunchang said lightly: "Anyway, I'm not interested in this kind of false reputation."
Cao Mengde said meaningfully: "When the military rank is improved, there are more things that can be driven, or the power of the Chang'an defending mecha can be granted the driving rights of the Chang'an defending mecha! Those mechas are the crystallization of Chang'an's latest technology! There will also be special technicians to maintain the mecha for you!"
Guan Yunchang yawned lazily: "It sounds interesting, but I still like my dragonfly fighter more."
Cao Mengde continued to add: "I can help you connect with each other so that you can make suggestions to the arsenal in Chang'an City according to your needs to improve and upgrade your mecha. As long as you have enough authority, you will also have wingman! Along with you, attack and obey your command wingman!"
Guan Yunchang smiled: "It's enough for me to be Liu Xuande's wingman."
"Good buddy!" I slapped him in a very happy manner.
Cao Mengde was discouraged. He had always planned to convince Guan Yunchang to become his own person (maybe because he wanted him to become his wingman), but Guan Yunchang was not interested in those.
Along the way, we all learned more about Cao Mengde's words and deeds, and the more we felt that this was a person who likes to brag and is very fond of merit. He was suspicious by nature and should not be long-term. Of course, he is a rich child and a famous mecha driver in Chang'an. Everyone should be polite on the surface. As for the reality...
The disappointed Cao Mengde turned to Yuan Benchu, but Yuan Benchu was still chattering about Zhao Zilong. Zhao Zilong seemed tired, so he turned to me and said, "I plan to report to Chang'an Research Institute first. Anyway, I'm going to a research institution, so I don't have to go to the Chang'an Council to make trouble, just bring the transfer order."
I nodded: "Then I wish you good luck, and see you back."
Zhao Zilong jumped into a car and said to the driver: "Let's go, let's go to the research institute."
I felt that the driver looked familiar. After taking a closer look, he found that it was Gongsun!
"Gongsun, why are you going to the research institute?" I asked curiously.
"You can't be idle. After all, you are a person who has made contributions in the war. The superiors also gave me a position, and they were also at Chang'an Research Institute. They are just a low-level clerk, just running errands." Gongsun smiled.
However, Zhao Zilong exposed his old truth: "Gongsun is not a man who is not exposed. His relatives work in the logistics department of Chang'an Research Institute and have arranged him there. It's a fat man."
Zhang Yide stared at Gongsun with his eyes wide open: "We are short of food in the future, but we will go to find you!"
Gongsun laughed dryly: "This is Chang'an. You bosses are all majors. How could they be short of food? See you guys!"
He drove the car and left in a flash. After a few days of separation, he didn't expect that this kid would also have good driving skills.
Sun Zhongmou and Sun Shangxiang were still standing aside, and I asked, "Where are you going?"
Sun Zhongmou replied: "Our Sun Group has an office in Chang'an, so we can just go there."
I nodded: "Don't forget your special purpose. I remember Zhao Zilong said that the best star marrow is in Chang'an."
"I know." Sun Zhongmou said: "The energy that supports the internal core operation of Chang'an comes from the star marrow. This Chang'an can be said to be floating in mid-air with the energy of the star marrow."
"How do you know so much?!" Everyone was surprised.
"Because the anti-gravity engine in this city was made by the Sun Group. It is currently the only one. Because of the special star marrow that supports its operation, only Chang'an has it." Sun Zhongmou had no pride on his face, "My family has contributed too much to this, and my mother also fell down while studying the anti-gravity engine..."
It turns out that the famous Sun Group actually has such unknown secrets.
I patted his shoulder: "Everyone must look forward, now you are here in Chang'an, do your best to find what you want. We will do our best to help you."
He was stunned for a moment, and I stretched out my hand: "Come on, I will be a good guy after the high five."
"Haha!" He had a happy expression when he clapped his high fives, "Good buddy!"
"Good buddy!"
As the sun sets and the lights are on, everyone is rushing towards their own future.
I don’t know when the next time I meet.
