Chapter 335 Medal Ceremony
Amidst thunderous applause, Lin Tu saluted everyone and walked down from the podium.
Then, comes the highlight of the entire graduation ceremony.
The Minister of the Oster Defense Department, wearing a military uniform covered with medals, slowly walked up to the podium and said:
"This time, the trainee soldiers from the Joint Military Academy participated in a huge and important battle. In this battle, some companies and soldiers performed particularly well and made great contributions."
"After unanimous discussion by the Oster Defense Department, it has been decided to award all soldiers who participated in this battle the collective third-class merit."
"Among them, the 51th Company of the 17st Company, the 1st Logistics Team, and the 1st Mechanical Team, which performed particularly well, will be awarded the second-class collective merit."
The audience was in an uproar, and all the students couldn't help but show excitement and envy.
"Oh my god, a second-class collective merit?"
"Too strong! He has already achieved military merits before he officially joins the army. It will be easy for him to join any army in the future."
"The 51st Company is amazing! They were awarded second-class collective merit!"
"Are you envious?"
"of course!"
"Oh, why don't you tell me that they paid with their lives? Do you think it's just luck?"
"It's your turn. Are you willing?"
……
There was a commotion and applause in the audience.
The third-class merit medals were awarded by several senior military officers in turn, while the second-class merit medals were awarded by the Minister of Defense himself.
Jian Mo, Liang Heng, Tama and his group lined up and went up to the podium.
Although everyone had a serious expression, the excitement in their eyes clearly revealed their excitement and joy.
Zhou Yaoran and his companions were grinning from ear to ear, looking as happy as fools.
Their glorious moment is now being broadcast live to the entire galaxy on Starnet.
At the same time, in a huge open-air garden of a hotel in the Star Network, parents of human students of the United Military Academy gathered here.
This was jointly organized by several large families in the Galaxy Alliance, with the aim of connecting the personal connections of families in various colleges in order to recruit talents for their own influence.
Their target is the parents of students from common families.
At this banquet, people from these big families will try to win over these families of commoner origin, give them enough benefits, and make them their children and help them in the future.
Jian Mo's father, the commander of the First Legion, was holding a glass of wine and standing proudly at the position closest to the projection screen.
Looking at Jian Mo who stepped onto the podium, he smiled and said, "That's my son, Jian Mo."
The parents of Zhou Yaoran, Melos, and Ju Yan all gathered together at this moment, with proud expressions on their faces.
Father Zhou laughed proudly, "Hahaha, my kid can actually get a second-class merit. It really makes me proud!"
Su Xiwei and Alice's mother were the most shocked. They felt dazed for a moment as they watched their daughter walk onto the stage and be awarded honors.
"By the way, where is your daughter going to go after graduation? She must be going to your hospital, right?"
Alice's mother's face was full of emotion, and she asked Su Xiwei's mother with a smile.
Mother Su came back to her senses and shook her head, "No, don't you know? My daughter and your daughter both went to the Black Gold Laboratory."
"She had already signed an agreement with Black Purple Star without telling us."
Alice's mother was obviously hearing this for the first time. "What? She just said she was going there for exchange and study!"
Herlous' father laughed and said, "Don't worry. Our child and Chief Lin are close friends. We will definitely not be treated unfairly."
"I said at the beginning that the child named Lin Tu has a bright future. The children are still young, so we can let them explore and learn more."
Ju Yan's father also nodded in agreement, "That's right, and now the Black Gold Laboratory is gaining popularity. I heard that Professor Mulan has also joined the Black Gold Laboratory."
"Director Lin has recruited a lot of talents."
Father Zhou sighed, "Alas! At first Lin Tu said he wanted to become the commander of the Fifth Legion, but he didn't expect that he would become the commander-in-chief of Black Purple Star later."
"At first I thought that kid was just bragging. If Lin Tu hadn't become the commander-in-chief of Black Purple Star, I believe she would have become the commander of the Fifth Legion."
Ju Yan's father shook his head, "It's hard to say!"
He nodded towards Admiral Jian in the distance, "Those guys won't let a woman be on equal footing with them."
"After learning that Lin Tu was a woman, the people from the First Legion were the ones who shouted the loudest."
At this time, on the podium, the Minister of Defense walked to the loudspeaker again.
"I think everyone has heard that during this battle, there was a soldier who saved more than 400 comrades with his bravery and fearlessness."
"As an ordinary soldier, she possesses strong combat strength and excellent command ability. She led a group of brave soldiers and was not afraid of self-sacrifice. She created miracles in times of crisis."
"Afterwards, as an interstellar friend and the chief of the Black and Purple Star, she lent a helping hand at a critical moment, led the Black and Gold Army, supported the battle, and turned the tide of the war."
"I believe everyone already knows her name. She is the prospective graduate of the United Military Academy, the commander of the 51st Company, the chief of the Black and Purple Star, Lin Tu!"
"The United Government of Ost Star has decided to award Ms. Lin Tu the highest medal of honor on Ost Star, the Medal of Peace Hero!"
As the Defense Minister finished his words, there was a brief silence in the entire conference hall, as if it had been paused.
Then, the graduates in the center of the venue suddenly burst into deafening cheers.
The students in the audience also cheered in unison, calling out Lin Tu's name in unison and rhythmically.
"Lintu, Lintu, Lintu!"
Lin Tu walked out of the team amid shouts and cheers.
Her long silver hair flew up with her confident steps and she strode onto the podium with her head held high.
Captain Oster, with a smile on his face, took the Peace Hero Medal, which symbolized the highest honor, and pinned it on her chest.
The venue was filled with envious and admiring looks. None of the students who had always been so arrogant showed any jealousy or dissatisfaction towards her at this moment.
He never showed disdain for her because she was a woman.
Lin Tu smiled and shook hands with Captain Oster. Lei Yan and his group who were sitting in the guest seats at the back clapped their hands and all looked at her with proud smiles.
They came specially to witness this important moment in her life, and no one wanted to miss it.
Lin Tu smiled faintly at them. Her young and beautiful face was surprisingly calm. Apart from the faint smile, she did not show any excitement.
It was as if this medal of highest honor was something very ordinary.
She was calm and composed, completely different from those excited graduates.
Liang Heng, who was constantly clapping below, couldn't help but sigh, "A one-star chief is just different!"
