Him and their stars

Chapter 737 Realm
The incident happened on January 833, 1 in the common calendar, when the "special reconnaissance fleet" composed of the Scarlet Throne and the Blizzard had just entered the New World.

This galaxy located at the exit of the new continent of the Gate of Glory was originally just a barren galaxy without a naturally habitable planet, not even a terrestrial planet that could be reformed.But no matter what, this is also the entrance and exit of the star gate, a natural traffic artery.So the empire built a medium-sized defensive fortress here, two space cities that can accommodate half a million people, a huge space cultivation farm, and an orbital cargo center equipped with docks, warehouses and a large number of ship maintenance equipment. .

Of course, like all stargates, there is also a research center fully equipped with various important scientific research equipment.

...and then, needless to say, all at the expense of the looters passing by "by the way".

There is one thing to say, the predators really behaved very "thieves have the right way" this time, they didn't launch any attack on the two space cities with a population of hundreds of thousands, not even a deterrent bombardment .

Cultivate the food in the farm, and the materials in the cargo center are naturally accepted.

In addition, the research center did not let go.A dreadnought bombarded it with its main artillery from a long distance, instantly reducing this priceless research center and more than thirty researchers on duty to ashes.

The looters are really in a hurry.Otherwise, according to their previous behavior, even if they did not bring food and supplies, they would definitely take these researchers away.

Since you can't take it away, destroy it.The Predator is indeed a typical pragmatist philosophy, knowing that playing there is the easiest way to hurt the enemy.

Now, there are more than a thousand ships of various sizes gathered in this galaxy to deal with the aftermath, and there are even giant deep space ships of the size of the Titan ship.Yu Lian could see that there were more than a dozen giant ships with a length of tens of kilometers and a total mass of more than [-] million tons, which were constantly pouring cargo into the universe—the various large and small space city components.

Hundreds of deep space working ships shuttled through it, collected those parts together, and put them together like building blocks.Thus, a temporary space fortress gradually took shape.

Since the fleet cannot be dispatched for the time being, building a few more fortresses will not violate the treaty, right?
The startled bird belongs to yes.But we also have to express some understanding.

Throne and Blizzard didn't stay in the galaxy for long, they rushed directly to the next galaxy where the predators ravaged.Here is even more barren, a star that is estimated to take another billion years to grow into a fully mature star, and a lava planet and three gaseous planets.Even the mining value is really hard to describe.

The empire just put a signal transfer station, a deep space exploration station, and a scientific research laboratory here, all of which are semi-automatically operated, and there are no staff on duty half the time.

When the predators passed by, they also destroyed these facilities.Indeed, no casualties were caused, but, according to the legal basis passed down to the present from the age of cosmic voyages, this galaxy theoretically no longer belongs to the territory of the empire...

Well, no country dares to compete with the empire now, and the predators really want to disgust the empire by doing this.No, the imperial officers on the ship were quite agitated, but under the comfort of Colonel Sobaek, they were still able to maintain a minimum level of calmness.

Except for them, the other friends were very happy.Of course, under the suppression of their respective leaders, they also showed basic politeness, at least they were able to hold back their laughter in front of the imperial officers.

"Then follow the original plan and leave the Governor's District at the fastest cruising speed. Ours are all high-speed warships, and according to intelligence, the Predator Fleet contains a large number of cumbersome immigrant convoys and work ships, which should be able to catch up. Is this okay?" Colonel Soback asked Yu Lian in a questioning tone, with the appearance of a perfect deputy who was diligent and simple, knowing how to advance and retreat, "I am just giving some immature suggestions, and the decision is still up to you".

His attitude has always been like this since he got on the ship. His working ability is not perfect, but at least he is very diligent, and he is trying his best to coordinate the relationship between the imperial officers and other crew members. After a few days, there has been no trouble.Even Yu Lian, who was somewhat prejudiced against it, couldn't find any faults.

Up to now, Yu Lian has to feel that the reason why Sobaek's career was high and low in his previous life should be that he accidentally climbed into a leadership position that was not suitable for him.Isn't it more suitable for this guy to be a deputy or a staff member?

No, I'm going to put him in a leadership position no matter what!
"There is no news from the rest of the scouting fleet ahead, so I'm always a little worried. We have to be more cautious." Yu Lian pondered for a while: "Why don't you go back to the Blizzard? If something really goes wrong, We shouldn't be completely wiped out."

Colonel Sobaek's eyes flashed with joy, but he immediately realized that the other party should be testing him, so he shook his head and said, "Why did you say such an ominous word? Our mission is to investigate, not to pursue. We should try our best to avoid and The enemy is fighting meaninglessly. As long as you proceed with caution, there should be no accidents. In addition, I think that I can better cooperate with the actions of both sides by sitting here!"

Yu Lian glanced at him and showed a sincere smile: "For the time being, that's okay. However, you have to promise me that when you get close to the area where you may encounter the enemy, you need to return to the Stormstorm to take command in advance.

"Here, Commander..."

"No need to say any more, I am very relieved that you are doing business." Yu Lian waved his hand: "As I said, I am looking forward to the scene of fighting side by side with you, but first of all, you must have your own boat. "

A group of people on the bridge watched the pair of young officers, who were old enemies but cooperated tacitly for the same goal, and felt the same passion as those reporters before.Although none of them seemed to realize that there was something wrong with a fourth ring and a second ring being rivals.

Feifei was the only one who felt that something was wrong, and of course she would not say anything, but afterward, she specially went to Yu Lian's captain's room to remind her privately:
"Colonel Sobaek is still very active during this period. He originally volunteered to be responsible for the investigation mission of the Star Knights behind the enemy, and then joined the Battle of Modan by chance and made great contributions. The whole battle They all showed courage and strategy, and they have been on the front page of the official empire newspapers several times recently."

"Is the empire really planning to promote him as the candidate for the new Four Heavenly Kings of the Knights?" Yu Lian suddenly became interested.

"He is already." Feifei smiled and said, "Now, the new version of the Star Knights' Young Generation Four Heavenly Kings, in addition to Countess Lamut and Viscount Shameen, your true enemy, also includes Viscount Ikekai, and then It's Baron Sobaek."

"Shameen is not my real enemy, he just...wait a minute, that's all for Sobaek. What's going on with Akekai? The strength is not bad, but this year is forty, right? The statistical range of the Four Heavenly Kings is finally Do you want to include the middle-aged group as well?"

"Forty-five years old. His daughter got married last year. It was a honeymoon held at the wedding banquet on Earth. Mr. Mao Yuanzuo also went to attend, which became a big news in the local area."

"A senior star knight of the empire, a viscount, came to the community to hold a wedding?"

"His mother is from Earth."

"Our political leader, who has been a prime minister and a senator for [-] years, is going to attend the wedding banquet of an imperial nobleman?"

"The one who married is also a person from Earth. At least after the War of Independence, the community and the empire have become friendly neighbors. There are many industrial exchanges between us and the empire."

"That's right. The white gloves of the Co-prosperity Party are closely related to imperial trade."

Feifei pursed her lips and smiled, but she was obviously not interested in this topic, so she said, "However, there is really no absolute statement about the age range this so-called young man should come from. Forty-five years old, at least not Count as an old man."

All in all, three fourth rings plus one second ring form the four heavenly kings in parallel, and everyone seems to think there is nothing wrong with it.

"However, the empire has caught an uncle to make up the number. Does this mean that the young and outstanding gifted children are already a bit stretched?"

Yu Lian thought it was strange.Leaving aside Giafell, who is no less than Gongsun Qing's combat genius, Heshan Nairhana is only one step away from breaking through the fourth ring.

In addition, Miss Arianne Einach, who I met a few times on the Dawn Angel, is also a third-ring.Don't look at her listless and taciturn, fishing for her own fish, but in the future, she will become a fleet commander from the navigator system.

Those who have never met, Wolfna Maimida and Olivia Lowentour, who will always be the second generals of Her Majesty the Queen in the future, seem to have broken through the fourth ring before the age of thirty.

Who dares to say that these are not geniuses?

Even if Miss Brunhilt's group of talented girlfriends is not counted, who knows how many rare treasures are hidden in such a huge empire?
"However, Yu'er seems a little disapproving of Colonel Sobaek..."

"I attach great importance to it. At least I'm sure, as an assistant, he should be very reliable." Yu Lian said.

Feifei added: "Actually, after reading Colonel Sobaek's battle reports during this period, I'm sure that I still can't see the ability and talent, but he must be a lucky general. But, Yu'er, whether it's a brave general or Smart generals actually have limits, as long as they are braver than them, or have more comprehensive calculations. But what should we do with this lucky general? If metaphysics can calculate, then it is not called metaphysics."

This makes sense.So Yu Lian became even more entangled.

"Of course, metaphysics will eventually come to an end, but no one knows when it will end. Before that, it's never a big mistake to be careful." Feifei said again.

Yu Lian had to agree more.

Then, there is the mahjong time that should naturally happen... Uh, in fact, the last conversation took place during the sage time after the mahjong game ended.

Then, they decided to go to the restaurant to add some supper.You know, there is now a team of professional cooks from the Imperial Guard on board, at least the food conditions are several orders of magnitude better than when they were in the Abyss Nebula.

The two changed their clothes while discussing who could represent the highest state of imperial court dim sum, Dragon Blood Cake or Star Fruit Hundred Eats.Just when they were about to leave, they suddenly felt a slight spiritual fluctuation.

Yu Lian's expression darkened, he took a step back, stood in front of Feifei, tried his best to get away from the center of the fluctuation, flicked his hand lightly, and the hilt of the lightsaber hanging on the wall of the room fell into his hand.

However, as a light curtain thinner than the nightlight dissipated, what appeared in front of Yu Lian and Feifei was a giant tortoise carrying a heavy carapace.

Of course, it is not appropriate to say that it is a giant tortoise. Generally speaking, only the size and body conform to the characteristics of that kind of crustacean reptile.If you take a closer look, it has horns on its head, which is very majestic, and it has the characteristics of a dragon.The tail was long and slender, half as long as the torso wrapped in the carapace, flexible and powerful, at first glance it looked like a giant python with no head but only a body.

Afterwards, the tortoise stood up relying on two thick elephant-like thighs, and the pair of vertical pupils on the dragon's head flashed a very humane look.

"Oh, Xuanwu." Feifei suddenly realized.

In fact, this is a kind of spirit beast that originally lived in the virtual world, and is occasionally found in the material world.Their combat effectiveness is not too strong, at least aggressive and aggressive can definitely be regarded as pacifists in the animal kingdom.The advantage lies in its strong survivability, all the spiritual abilities it masters are on the defensive side, its intelligence is not low, and it can still fight.In addition, it also has the ability to swim across, and even teleport, in the formless and formless spiritual ether ocean of the virtual world, thus gaining the reputation of "the boat of the virtual world".

Of course, because its appearance is indeed very close to one of the four spirits in the East Asian mythology of the earth, people on earth have such an elegant name for it.There are many other such examples.

It is said that the top bosses in the extraordinary world are quite happy to catch some weird spirit beasts in the virtual world as pet tool beasts for themselves.Xuanwu is one of the most popular ones.

"Hahugakahuhuha!" Xuanwu gesticulated and made a sound of unknown meaning.

"Although I understand that you are eager to communicate with me, I really don't understand what you say." Yu Lian spread his hands solemnly.

"Xuanwu" is said to be able to grow to more than [-] meters, and its tonnage is even higher than that of the King Kong dragon turtle that can cause earthquakes with a single step on the God of War Festival.However, this one stood up to only about [-] centimeters, solid and harmless, and even a little cute.If it weren't for the horns and mane on the head, which had already begun to show signs of majesty, Yu Lian could have easily regarded it as one of the three masters of a famous little monster collection game.

However, for this kind of spirit beast with high intelligence and human nature, Yu Lian automatically communicated with them as equal intelligent creatures, and then said seriously: "Actually, a spirit beast as smart as you should learn Speak human language. Come on, put your fingers on your throat and pronounce it with me."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" Xuanwu gestured repeatedly, seeing that Yu Lian still didn't understand anything, so he simply handed something over with his forelegs.

It really can only be described as sticky.Because Xuanwu's limbs have no fingers, his movements of holding things can easily remind Yu Lian of a blue cat-shaped robot without ears.

Taking a closer look, what he handed over was clearly a false blue card.

"This is for me?" Yu Lian was startled, and just about to go to get it, but then held back: "It can't be some strange fishing law enforcement?"

Xuanwu seemed to be rolling his eyes, and then he moved his hands and feet anxiously: "Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!"

Feifei patted Yu Lian angrily, and asked, "You mean, someone asked you to send this false order?"

Xuanwu nodded, made a kneading motion with his two round giant feet, then stretched his flexible and flexible long tail, and pointed to the sky.

He has no fingers, so he probably uses his tail instead of pointing to the sky.

Feifei said again: "You want us to use this? Someone is waiting for us."

Xuanwu nodded vigorously, clapped the blue badge on his hand, stretched his tail a little longer, and placed it in front of Yu Lian.

Yu Lian finally understood this time, without too much hesitation, he took Feifei's little hand with one hand and Xuanwu's long tail with the other.Only then did the spirit beast heave a sigh of relief in satisfaction, then stretched out its two big hands, and vigorously rubbed the Xu Ling in them.

Immediately afterwards, another burst of sunlight flashed by.The big tortoise had brought the two of them to a floating island floating in the sea of ​​nothingness.The surrounding space, no matter whether it is up, down, left, or right, is filled with gray mist, extending beyond Yu Lian's sight.

This place is naturally a virtual place.

On the tutorial in front of him, an old man in a floral shirt was squatting on the ground to draw a picture with a piece of chalk.While painting, he hummed an out-of-key tune happily.At first glance, it really looks like a folk artist doing graffiti on the streets of Big Apple City.
