Chapter 13
Unlike second class species,
every first class species had their own regions in the training center and each
of them contained tens of buildings. Glycans had the largest living space on
Eva-1; each Glycan trainee had their own rooms. For the Glycan trainees who
were from the 17 families, their rooms was ten times bigger than those of other
glycans.
Klaycon
was from family K whose members held critical positions in Glycan armed forces.
Even though he was only 18 years old, he had received three years of military
training. He was very popular among his classmates, but he knew his popularity
might have something to do with his father General Kalan and his grandfather
General Klizan.
Right
now he was sitting with his friends on the upper floor of the dining zone. They
just finished ordering their dinners.
“What
you guys think about this Hylocan girl thing?” Nissen asked. He had a small and
thin figure and a round face with a scar on his left cheek.
“It
seems that this girl doesn’t come from Hylocan reserve.” Didian said in
confusion as he rubbed his cheek. He had a wide face, two small black eyes and
a pointy chin.
“I don’t
have enough information to comment on this matter.” Zier said seriously with
his always strict face, which made his long face look even longer.
“We know
this girl was travelling on her own and captured by Uainanese. They handed in
the girl to us. But they have no idea where this girl came from.” Didian said
easily.
“There
must be some kind of mistake. Now all Hylocans are born on the Hylocan reserve.
We have tracers installed on all of them. For this girl, we might mess up her
record and the tracer might be broken.” Zier said confidently.
“If she
was born on Hylocan reserve, then why they didn’t remove her eyeballs. That
couldn’t be a mistake.” Nissen said.
“You
know what I am thinking?” Didian said.
“Didian,
we are not discussing rumors. No Hylocan ship got away in UWII.” Zier said
firmly.
“I
certainly hope so.” Nissen said.
“What do
you say, Klaycon?” Didian asked.
“Ah?”
Klaycon didn’t really listen to their conversation. He was looking at Gloria
all this time. She was sitting at the lower level by herself, her heart-shaped
face partially covered by her blonde hair. When she tucked hair behind her ear,
it showed her beautiful neckline.
“Klaycon,
what are you looking at?” Zier asked as he stood up, scanning the lower level
quickly.
“Are you
looking at...” Nissen didn’t finish the sentence, because Klaycon flashed him
an angry stare.
“I will
be more concerned about the upcoming selection instead of all these rumors.”
Zier said seriously.
“When is
that?” Klaycon asked in a relaxed tone.
Didian
and Nissen smirked.
“About
one week. But you don’t really care. I don’t blame you. If I have won the
championship twice, I won’t care either.” Zier said.
“So you
know that.” Klaycon said.
“Everyone
knows that. I think that is the reason why you are so popular with girls.” Zier
said jealously.
“I thought
that was because my face.” Klaycon said and everyone smiled.
In
Glycan’s society, male and female must pass all three selections to be
considered as a qualified Glycan. The selections tested every Glycan’s
physical, mental and intelligent capabilities. The first selection started at
age eight, second one at 14 and the third at 18. The three selections were held
in three different planets every year. All Glycans reaching the selection age
had to go to the designated planets and participate the tests. The score was
based on the time one took to finish the tests. If a Glycan didn’t finish the
tests or didn’t finish the time in the required time, it meant he or she was
dead or would be dead. Every year, about one third of each age group died on
those planets. For male Glycans who finished all three selections and obtained
a first place in
