The sixty-day vacation was fast over, and Renault was going back to the academy.

When leaving, Renault was very reluctant to Old Bell.

During his time at Belgard, he learned a lot from the elder Bell. These things have benefited him a lot, and some of them have benefited him for life.

Or old Bell smiled and said, "Hey, silly boy, don't think that leaving is goodbye." This time it's over, and you're going to have another vacation, the next vacation. You're going to be in Alpha College for six years, and you're going to have six vacations...... Well, the last one can not be counted. But we're going to have five years together. Even if you don't think about the holidays, you can come and see me during the week, and it doesn't take long to get from Phoenix to Schwanny. ”

Renault's face was filled with a happy smile: "Yes sir, you are right. I'll come to see you whenever I have time. ”

Renault said and left.

"Wait, kid." Old Bell suddenly handed Renault a suitcase.

"It's ......" Renault didn't understand.

"Shenyao's training system." It was Gad who spoke: "The old guy has been doing this for you all this time. ”

Renault looked at Bell in surprise.

The old man shrugged: "Don't be too happy, boy, this is a very abrasive system, maybe giving it to you won't help you, but it will hurt you...... It can distract you from most of your energy and ultimately cause you to achieve nothing. I hesitated for three whole days, and finally I felt that the decision should be left to you. If you like it, you can take it to training. But if you don't have faith, give up as soon as possible. ”

"And what if I succeed in training?" Renault asked.

The old man looked at Renault, half loud.

He said, "Then the angel is yours." ”

Renault smiled.

The Silver Winged Angel is like an untamed horse, powerful, mighty, fierce, unruly, difficult to control, but it gives people infinite reverie.

Renault longs for the day when he can truly harness it, like taming a king.

With a deep bow to Old Bell, Renault left.

Looking at the back of Renault's departure, Old Bell suddenly shook his head: "Maybe I really shouldn't give him this system." ”

Gard laughed and said, "You've made your choice, Bell. You saw the potential of this lad from the very beginning. Although you have repeatedly refused, believe me, one day, he will appear in the mech fighting arena. ”

"No!" Old Bell let out an angry growl, "I'm not going to let him go there." ”

"That's not something you can decide, only fate can." Gad replied, "Believe me, one day, he will harness the Silverwing, defeat one opponent after another, and become the king of underground fighting." ”

――――――――――

Back at Alpha Academy, life has returned to the monotonous and boring state of study.

Because they are both students of the ship command department, Renault and Claire are both equally busy, which makes the communication between the two less, but it seems logical.

Sometimes Renaud would want to get closer to Claire, but when he got closer, he didn't know what to say. They will still have communication, but this kind of communication is like ordinary classmates and classmates, and they don't feel more close.

What happened in the past is like an invisible diaphragm, alienating a couple of men and women who have not yet formally established a relationship, and the busy study life has once again widened the distance between each other.

This distressed Renault, but it was unthinkable.

Three months after the start of the school year, the mecha course of the command department officially began.

Because he has had a practice foundation for a period of time, Renault's mecha class performance is still excellent at the level of crushing everyone, which makes many people feel helpless while envious, and can only say in private that Renault is a genius.

But no one knows that this so-called genius is sweating in private.

Upon returning to the academy, Renault installed the training system given to him by Old Bell in the simulation cabin in the King's Apartments. Every night back at the apartment, Renault would spend four hours in the simulation chamber.

Start by reducing the number of neurons by one, and then gradually reduce the number of neurons to increase the complexity of the array control system.

Neuronal substitution is the simplest at first.

It only took a week for Renault to successfully complete the systematic replacement of the first neuron, but it didn't make any sense.

The difference in a neuron does not show any effect in actual combat, but the occasional mistake in the operation of the system can have an unpredictable impact. It's like the chance of someone accidentally falling while walking is much less than the chance of accidentally pressing the wrong key while typing. Although Renault has reduced his error rate to less than 1 in 10,000, the destabilization is still far from being comparable to the neuronal system.

This means that for every 10,000 moves, he will make a small mistake. Such a mistake can be insignificant or fatal.

In other words, although Reynolds has completed the substitution of a neuron, its practical application effect is not as good as that of non-substitution.

This may be the reason why the elder Bell wants to reduce the number of neurons all the way to fifty-six, and only by achieving this level of reduction can the difference in the functions of the two systems be truly reflected, and of course, the huge operational requirements that arise from this are simply outrageous.

A month later, Reynolds completed the replacement of the third neuron.

Three months later the fifth, six months later the seventh, and a year later the replacement of ten neurons was completed,

It took Reynaud a year to complete the replacement of ten neurons, which was also the fastest year to improve, but at the same time, his error rate increased to 4 per 10,000.

At the end of the second holiday, Renault was once again the first place of the semester, received a full scholarship, and went to the Belgard machine shop again during the holiday, where he spent a busy and enjoyable holiday.

When the third year of Alpha Academy arrived, Reynolds was visibly feeling the increasing difficulty of neuronal decline.

This year, he only completed the replacement of seven neurons, but the error rate rose to 1 in 1,000.

In Alpha's fourth year, Renault successfully replaced four neurons and the error rate increased to 3 per 1,000.

Twenty-one neurons are decreasing, and finally Renault's mecha control shows something different from other mechas. The mech under Renault's control can do many actions that ordinary mechs can't do, so as to have more tactical changes, which is much stronger than other mechs in this regard, but its relatively slow reaction and inevitable error rate have also become its flaws.

If you divide the combat effectiveness of the mecha into a value, the value of other people is 10, and the value of Renault is 5-15.

In other words, after three years of hard training, Renault actually did not gain any obvious advantage in mecha handling. Considering the hard work he has put into these three years, he has also lost a lot, and he has lost a lot - because of the more distracted energy on this, Renault's courses in other areas have declined to varying degrees.

He's not number one anymore.

From this aspect, it is also possible to understand why the array control system will eventually be replaced by the neuronal system.

The high barrier to entry makes it doomed to fail to become the mainstream of mechas.

This situation made Matthew very happy.

He kept saying that Renault was just a guy who was complacent and stopped improving, and there was nothing to care about. As for the fact that Renault's grades in all subjects are still stable in the top five overall and continue to receive scholarships, Matthew turned a blind eye.

Despite this, Renault continued to train.

There was no reason, Renault at that time did not think about what this kind of training would bring to him, he just felt that since it had already begun, there was no reason to give up easily. Moreover, after three years of training, Renault gradually felt the power of this system - it has an infinitely bright future, and theoretically as long as it reaches a certain level, it can even use space mechs in the gravitational sphere.

He began to fall in love with this kind of control of his hands and brain, and he fell in love with this kind of challenge to his own limits.

But deep down, there is another reason that is the real reason why he insists so much.

That's Claire.

For four years, his relationship with Claire has always been like a separation, neither estranged nor closer, just like two ordinary acquaintances, friends, all friendships are based on the relationship between classmates.

Won't go any further, can't go any further!

Sometimes Claire would laugh with other male students, and before that happen, Renault would feel an indescribable pain.

He tried to stop it, but couldn't find any reason.

I can only watch there in silence.

Compared to Claire, Renault had less contact with Nora.

She always hid herself in a thick mech, trained hard in the depths of the ground, lurking in the shadows, using her sniper rifle to aim at anyone who might threaten her sister.

But she never aimed at Renault again, and she didn't say anything threatening.

Inexplicable heartache can only be forgotten by focusing on one thing.

In this case, Renault can only choose training, a training with no end in sight.

Perhaps this is the real reason why he chose this path in the first place.

At that time, Renault even despaired, believing that he and Claire could no longer have a future.

But just as the fourth year break was approaching, something happened in the academy.

Dean Marshall is retiring.
