Him and their stars

If we count Colonel Walter and her entire team, even excluding the fallen "past" and other members of the Thirteen Sides, the number of executors and preparatory executors who died in the snake's lair is definitely in double digits. Even for a terrorist organization with a long history like the World Serpent, there is still a slight shortage of talent.

In addition, the Void Fortress, which took several centuries to build, was eventually captured by the coalition forces. It can be expected that the strongholds and industries operated by Snake in the Spiral Cross Nebula will also be pulled out one by one. Even for this mysterious association with a long history, it is definitely a serious loss of vitality.

According to the behavior of this organization in the past history, they should naturally switch themselves to a dormant state, waiting for recovery a hundred years later.

"So, how are these guys snakes? They are clearly just tardigrades." Yu Lian couldn't help but want to complain.

He was really thinking about the possibility of wiping out these guys once and for all, but it was unrealistic to think about it. As long as they still have the gray glove attributes of the Alliance and the Empire, there will naturally be room for their existence. Moreover, even if the real rulers of the galaxy completely give up on them, where in the vast universe can they not live?

To put it bluntly, cults and secret societies of occultism are like civilizational influenza viruses that are almost impossible to eradicate. For those in power, as long as the flu is not turned into cancer, it is considered a success.

Yu Lian just hoped that during this period, they would not come out to stir up trouble again.

However, my intuition told me that things should not be that simple.

However, no matter what, the attack on the Snake Lair has indeed come to an end. The Orange Cat and the Empire achieved the first success of killing the "past". The White-haired Fox and the Alliance surrendered Snake's Chief Technologist. The Community also gained the honor and diplomatic prestige of being the first to ascend. They also received a weapon from the Fortress Constant Engine. With a little scrap, everyone has a bright future.

...Well, I always feel like something is wrong.

While he was still thinking about this problem, he vaguely heard cheers from ahead.

Immediately afterwards, a communication from Brigadier Zuo Wanhu, who was still commanding further ahead, was sent: "Your Excellency, Commander, we have finally entered the headquarters of the enemy's fortress."

Headquarters? How many headquarters are there in this fortress? Although Yu Lian wanted to say this, even if his emotional intelligence was low, he would not hit his subordinates like this. He blessed: "All credit goes to the frontline soldiers who fought bloody battles. The first batch arrived at the headquarters. Yes, which unit is it?"

"It's the 358th Armored Assault Battalion." Brigadier Zuo Wanhu said as he sent the target's coordinates and passage composition.

"Great, are we the first to arrive?"

"...No, the Empire's 96th Panzer Grenadier Company arrived five minutes earlier than us. His Royal Highness King Wilente is on site to support the strategy work."

Yu Lian finally realized what he had forgotten.

But, then again, weren't the few retainers brought by King Wei dead before? There was no trace of him himself, and he thought he was dead somewhere in the fortress, but he didn't expect that he was still alive and kicking.

What a pity...ah no, what a blessing!

"He is actually still alive... Uh, is that His Highness still healthy?"

Brigadier Zuo probably didn't hear the malice in Yu Lian's words, so he said: "Of course he is full of energy, and he even gave us some of the grenadier's field supplies. Let's talk about it, the taste is really... uh, out of this world. Regarding the friendship between the two countries, I have accepted it. I'm sorry, sir, because His Royal Highness King Wei is too friendly and always felt that if he refused, it would cause a diplomatic incident, so he did not seek your approval in advance."

"There is no need to ask for permission for this kind of thing. Moreover, you are right, the grenadier's field rations do taste better than ours."

The Empire certainly had plenty of field rations made from corpse starch and hormones, but they were all distributed to cannon fodder and servant troops. The Panzergrenadier unit composed of citizens is, of course, a different kind of treatment. Each Panzergrenadier's mecha storage compartment will carry rations that can be used by an individual soldier for at least three days. They are nutritionally balanced and rich in taste. Of course it's not a top-grade delicacy, but at least according to the standards of individual soldier field rations, it's pretty good.

Brigadier Zuo added: "Not only are individual soldier rations provided, the empire's logistics department also sent cold drinks and ice cream from the fleet."

"...Did the Imperial Generalissimo's Office sign a contract with any ice cream company recently?"

"I've seen this before, but it doesn't have a brand. It should be produced by the fleet kitchen."

"...Well, it is indeed the Imperial Space Fleet that owns the Titan Hotel. However, being able to deliver ice cream at least shows that the Imperial Army is very confident in the current war situation."

"Well, sir, His Highness King Wilente is saying that if we drink cold drinks and eat ice cream outside the enemy's headquarters, it will definitely put pressure on the last defenders. Maybe they will open the city and surrender."

Although Yu Lian wanted to complain, he inexplicably thought of the Battle of Huaihai, and immediately had to admit that King Wilente's operation was still feasible to a certain extent.

In any case, at least he didn't bring wine and barbecue, which shows that his mental structure is not hopeless.

"Okay... you go on, remember to smack your lips when eating ice cream. Also, leave me a tub of vanilla flavor."

"Understood, I will try my best to leave you some of each flavor." Brigadier Zuo expressed his gratitude to Yu Lian for his openness, and then said: "But I don't know how effective it will be. King Weirent told us, There should be powerful psychics within the enemy headquarters. This is why we are advised to temporarily stop the attack and wait for backup."

Well, since he is a high-ranking psyker, and he is hiding in the headquarters and resisting, there is a high possibility that he is a member of the Thirteen Sides. Such a master is forced to fight in a desperate situation, which will definitely cause huge casualties to ordinary soldiers.

Thinking of this, Yu Lian nodded slightly: "You just need to follow the reasonable arrangements of His Royal Highness King Wei for the time being and maintain the blockade of the enemy headquarters. I will be there soon."

At this time, auxiliary troops from the rear also arrived and began to clean the battlefield. Yu Company took the troops of Colonel Walter and Major Dutch and began to advance towards the fortress headquarters located directly in front of the passage, less than 5 kilometers away in a straight line. More than 300 mobile soldiers with live ammunition, more than 100 evil-looking combat robots produced by Blue Label Company, plus four self-propelled fire support vehicles marched together. It was really a bit majestic. It smells like a slutty armed parade.

Yu Lian suddenly felt that he had fallen from a lion patrolling the territory to a hyena patrolling with a pack of dogs.

Halfway through, Brigadier Zuo sent another notification: "The pioneer battalion of the Alliance's 7th Mobile Brigade has also arrived, carrying assault vehicles to attack strongholds. There are also several guerrillas."

Is this an appointment? Yu Lian just felt that this war situation was really full of human feelings, and what he wanted was a unified destiny for mankind and "peace for a generation," right?

"His Royal Highness King Wei still persuaded the Alliance side, saying that it would be best to wait for you and Inspector Berenkeist from the Alliance side to arrive before launching a general attack."

Yu Lianwei thought for a moment and understood what the other party meant, and he had to admit that King Wei Lunt was really a luxurious person with high emotional intelligence! Although such a character will be regarded as hypocritical by some people because he is too exquisite, there will be ten times more people who will appreciate him as many as he hates him.

Afterwards, everyone walked to the end of the passage.

Yu Lian soon saw a space that was much larger than the transportation hub cabin just now. At the end of the space is a closed armored door with a width of more than five meters and a height of about three meters. There is still a light film of energy shield flowing on it. It does look like an important facility.

At this moment, outside the gate, the troops of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces have set up a three-layer defense line inside and outside, assuming a posture of long-term siege. The soldiers were taking turns to rest. The field rations were accompanied by ice cream and cold drinks, which was considered a very luxurious scene on the battlefield.

In addition, a row of automatic sentry cannons surrounded two wheeled vehicles. He and I were standing by the gate, warming up the vehicle-mounted hammer - this thing looked like a rush vehicle from the classical era, but it actually came with its own The high-frequency disintegration force field can cause effective damage to armor plates and energy shields, making it an effective weapon in street fighting and fortress assault.

Although the battlefield survivability of this thing is indeed doubtful, the armored isolation facility in this space city can indeed be regarded as a special attack weapon.

Yu Lian saw Brigadier Zuo Wanhu in the military formation, but he only had time to salute the latter. There was no way, at this moment, the most eye-catching person in the audience was indeed King Wilente wearing a gorgeous coat of arms.

His heraldry machine is probably specially made, at least its appearance is definitely custom-made. The main color is red, full of passion and blood. The golden lace outlines a frame like a brilliant sun on each armor piece, forming a mysterious but dignified psychic array on the armor, and from the shoulder armor. It extends down to form a dragon-wing-like shape on the upper arm.

Oh, the royal treasure of the Wilente family, "The Dragon of the Blazing Sun"! A knockoff of Dawn Dragon.

Because it is a priceless alchemy product, it cannot be regarded as a mass-produced psyker armor, but rather an astonishingly powerful Noble Phantasm. But precisely because it is a copycat, its appearance is even more gorgeous than the original version in non-combat state.

No, the spiritual light was flowing on the armor, even giving King Wilente a layer of divinity on his cheeks.

In fact, he is indeed a very masculine and typical imperial handsome man. His face and facial features are full of a sculptural beauty that is as sharp as a knife or an axe. When the armor is on the body, the original feminine and bookish aura is weakened to the greatest extent, leaving only the majestic majesty and domineering aura.

At that moment, Yu Lian felt that he should have seen the most successful human emperor cosplay in the world, of course, when he was not stabbed in the back by the first war commander and sat on the golden toilet.

I have to admit that some people just don't like others. Some people just have a face that should be emperor!

If King Valente was born in a "democratically elected" society, he might be able to be the head of state until the end of the world.

...Well, then again, it seems that the emperor of the empire is really chosen.

In short, this emperor-elect who is well versed in human relations and has high emotional intelligence has already greeted Yu Lian. On his divine cheek, which was made by the aura of the heraldry machine and seemed to be about to shatter into nothingness, there was a warm but decent look on his face. Yes, a very humane smile.

"Yu Lianqing, I am waiting for you to preside over the battle. There is a powerful snake head hidden in the headquarters. I can feel the evil, gloomy but powerful aura. However, I am not a decisive and wise commander, nor a brave one." The hero of the three armies, I don't know how to minimize the losses of the soldiers. Now that you are here, I feel relieved."

His speech was really nice, calm, sincere and contagious, as if he was truly a benevolent sage who put the lives of ordinary soldiers first.

It is said that the Tireluo people are only willing to follow the overlord with great talents and strategies, but how can ordinary soldiers hate a good man who cherishes his own life? No, not only the Alliance and Community, but also many imperial officers' faces flashed with moved emotions.

Yu Lian derived his senses and passed through the armored door. He did feel the "evil and powerful" psychic aura that King Wilente said, but it was not "gloomy" and it was not like a strip. A snake is more like a wounded beast that has been forced into a desperate situation, ferocious, ferocious, violent, and bloodthirsty.

The other party probably didn't want to act anymore, and was unscrupulously venting his sense of existence. Thanks to it, ordinary soldiers on our side didn't even dare to approach the gate for more than 20 meters, and only those silly omnic weapons were still holding on to their posts.

If that guy didn't use any tricks to bluff, he would indeed be considered a strong enemy. Even if I go in person, with so many "friendly troops" pressing the battle, there will inevitably be a risk of overturning.

However, as the divinely chosen champion, you should take the lead at times like this, right? Thinking of this, Yu Lian immediately took a step back, and a look of sincerity and fear suddenly appeared on his professionally trained face.

"You really disgrace me."

His eyes swept over an elderly knight, but it was none other than Count Heronqi.

This is a veteran who has served in the Knights for half a century, and his strength should also be in the sixth ring. Even if he is over seventy years old, he is definitely capable of holding a little penis to pee with one hand and cutting down a dozen kings of Wilente with one hand.

At this moment, this majestic old handsome guy is scooping ice cream...well, putting this aside, he does have the face of an old tough guy.

When it comes to being a master, isn’t this the one?

Just as Yu Liang was about to say something, King Wei showed a guilty look: "I was too aggressive and was ambushed by the elite troops of the World Snake. My retainers, Mr. Job and Mr. Hutar, died fighting to cut off my queen. Fortunately, On the way back, I met the troops led by Count Heronqi, and I saved my life."

You look so majestic now that it would be an exaggeration to just ascend the throne. It really doesn't look like you have been hunted down. Yu Lian thought.

"During the battle, Count Heronqi finally repelled the snake head, and we pursued it all the way to get here."

Yu Lian looked at the old knight and saw that he stuffed the last mouthful of ice cream in the bucket into his mouth. Then he nodded vigorously to himself and said: "With the help of His Highness, we were surrounded by four people and managed to gain the upper hand. . That heretic is the only master I have ever seen in my life. Even though we drove him away, we still spent a lot of money."

Thinking of this, the old earl pointed to the gap in the shoulder of his heraldry machine, and said with lingering fear: "If it's half an inch, half of the old man's shoulder will have to come off."

Okay, this wound looks quite real and new. It looks like it was torn apart by a master using an energy weapon. In addition, the old man's complexion was indeed not very good. He only regained a little color after eating a bucket of ice cream. Either his physical strength was not restored or he suffered from some depression.

As for the few knights around him, they were all injured.

...Well, in short, according to their book, King Wilent passed by with his retainers and wanted to go to the front line in person. However, he was separated from the large army in the chaos, and then he was ambushed by a powerful snake head. .

All his loyal retainers were killed in the Battle of the Queen, and he himself was chased to the sky and into the earth, fleeing everywhere. At this moment, he met Deputy Knight Commander Heronqi who came from the rear to support him, and he was saved. He even almost killed him.

It seemed to make sense logically, and Yu Lian said he would just believe it for the time being. But what happened to the Alliance guerrilla Aisotu Burning Sword who died in the same place as his retainers, Viscount Job and Baron Huerta?

However, there is no need for me to "talk too much" about this kind of thing.

Thinking of this, Yu Lian hid his meaningful gaze under his solemn expression and suggested: "Since the snake head is such a fierce one, it is very likely that it will be the most powerful 'law breaker' among the thirteen faces. , maybe even a Time Lord. Your Highness, such a snake head is no longer an ordinary snake head, it must be punched hard. The official feels that we do not need to take risks, we only need to pry open the armored door a crack, Just throw a couple of anti-matter bombs inside."
