Chapter 1239: Did Zhang get promoted?
Looking at the man in front of him, who had absolutely no airs of a military officer.
Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment.
The major standing nearby immediately shouted, "The general is asking you a question!"
Zhao Chen immediately stood up straight and replied, "Reporting...reporting to the general."
I... I don't actually know how I used it.
It was a tense situation, as the fighter jets had run out of other weapons and ammunition.
With only the lightsaber at my waist, I mustered all °• N o v e l i g h t •° my willpower.
All he could think about was killing that alien creature!
Kill that alien creature!
I never expected the lightsaber that suddenly shot out would be so big...
Zhao Chen looked troubled.
The brigadier general rubbed his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face, and muttered to himself, "Indeed, some studies have shown that..."
A person's potential is unleashed when they are in a dangerous situation.
There have also been instances of lightsabers performing exceptionally well in life-or-death situations on the battlefield.
But... this lightsaber, over thirty meters long... is the first time I've ever seen one like this..."
The brigadier general looked Zhao Chen up and down with suspicion.
The major standing nearby immediately said, "General, why don't we let him try it here?"
The brigadier general's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement: "That's right."
Seeing is believing. No amount of talk can compare to seeing for yourself.
All I know is what your team members say, and some blurry footage taken from a starfighter.
Activate your lightsaber right here!
The brigadier general looked at Zhao Chen with excitement, as if he were waiting for some incredible performance.
Zhao Chen hesitated before drawing the lightsaber from his waist.
"What are you waiting for? Activate the lightsaber now!" the major urged, seeing Zhao Chen's hesitant expression.
"I...I was just getting into the zone..." Zhao Chen said with a wry smile.
In reality, Zhao Chen was trying to find a way to control the lightsaber.
It's impossible for him to brandish his 30-meter-long giant sword here again.
That really doesn't make sense.
According to the memories in the brain.
The user can actually control this lightsaber.
But it requires a strong will to control.
Zhao Chen took a deep breath.
Then he began to activate the lightsaber.
A beam of light appeared on the hilt of the lightsaber and gradually extended, though not very quickly.
Zhao Chen was calculating the length in his mind.
stop!
Zhao Chen's mind raced.
This lightsaber has really stopped extending!
Ultimately, he fixed the length of the lightsaber within a normal range.
At the same time, Zhao Chen's face showed that he was already putting in a lot of effort.
Looking at the lightsaber that had stopped growing longer.
The brigadier general looked at Zhao Chen with a puzzled expression: "Is this the only length you have?"
"Yes...I...I've used all my strength!"
Maybe it's because I pushed them once before, but now I'm really exhausted.
Just maintaining the status quo is difficult enough.
After saying that, Zhao Chen collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, his forehead covered in sweat.
The lightsaber disappeared again.
He really looked completely exhausted.
My performance was absolutely deserving of an Oscar.
"Too.
Using such a long lightsaber just now must have taken a huge toll on one's willpower and mental strength.
The fact that you can reassemble a lightsaber already shows that you are better than others in this aspect.
It seems you can wield such a long lightsaber.
"On the one hand, it's because you have talent and ability in this area, and on the other hand, it's also due to the special circumstances at the time." The brigadier general concluded about Zhao Chen's situation.
This made Zhao Chen breathe a sigh of relief.
"But who taught you to fly a fighter jet like that?" The brigadier general squinted at Zhao Chen again.
Alright.
This 'interrogation' is not over yet.
"I personally enjoy playing simulation games like piloting fighter jets."
Special moves are used in games.
The situation is critical today.
And...and...and another mentor who was very kind to me sacrificed his life.
"He reminded me to put on this lightsaber at my waist before I took off." Zhao Chen looked grief-stricken.
I'm sorry, Sergeant Major, I have to use you as an excuse now.
"So I was very angry during the battle."
With revenge on his mind, he couldn't help but use the controls from the simulation game.
I never expected it to actually succeed.
At that moment, I felt as if I had become one with the starfighter.
I am the eagle soaring freely on the battlefield!
Zhao Chen became more and more excited and thrilled as he spoke.
They couldn't help but stand up.
It seems that it really is as he said.
It was truly a case of heaven, earth, and humanity standing together; they all sided with him in this war.
Suddenly, at this moment.
Zhao Chen was drawn to a sudden burst of firelight outside the bridge porthole.
At this moment, the interstellar warships in near-Earth orbit have already opened fire.
Firepower is scorching this planet.
In this way, no matter how many of the alien species appear on this planet, they will be affected.
They will all be cleaned.
Of course, along with the cleansing, all life on this planet was also wiped clean.
The brigadier general noticed Zhao Chen's gaze and said calmly, "Don't you think it's cruel?"
This is the order I gave.
Do you think I'm a butcher?
This sudden question caught Zhao Chen off guard.
He lowered his head, looking as if he dared not speak.
"I'll let you speak." The commodore had already returned to the captain's chair, picked up a glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
"This is cruel for an ordinary person."
Although I haven't lived on this planet for long, I am still a flesh-and-blood human being.
But as a soldier, I know very well what I should and shouldn't do.
"In the face of the bigger picture, such sacrifices... are inevitable," Zhao Chen said, head bowed.
“Sacrifice...” the brigadier general murmured the name, then curled his lip as if he were somewhat disdainful.
Then he waved his hand and said, "You are a hero of this war."
I hereby confer upon you the rank of Sergeant Major.
Do your best.
You can go and rest now.
That's right.
From this day forward, you will serve on my flagship.
Join my Starfighter squadron, and someone will guide you through the piloting and operation of the Starfighters.
"If you're so skilled at piloting army aircraft, then flying interstellar fighters shouldn't be a problem for you either."
After saying that, he stopped looking at Zhao Chen.
Instead, he turned his head and looked at the burning planet outside the bridge window, his gaze very deep.
It's completely different from how energetic and vibrant he was just now.
"Come with me," the major reminded Zhao Chen.
"Okay, okay." Zhao Chen obediently followed behind the major.
"Regarding your future position, there will be someone specifically assigned to help you."
The general originally intended to promote you directly to the rank of lieutenant.
However, one battle directly promoted a sixth-level sergeant to a junior officer rank of ninth level or above.
Even if the general is a brigadier general, he doesn't have this authority. The major walked ahead and said something that surprised Zhao Chen.
This general actually wants to promote me. Why does he value me so much?
Zhao Chen was very surprised.
