Him and their stars

The roving Yushi-class cruiser with the temporary name "Red Tiger" has currently deployed its first layer of shields and is slowly wandering in the universe, like a barracuda surrounded by bubbles.

Her opponent is waiting in the airspace more than 30,000 kilometers away. In a space battle, this can almost be regarded as a close fight. However, there is no way around this. Generally speaking, although this exercise is under the banner of "actual combat", in the final analysis it is still a "program" part of the naval celebration. Only by fighting closer can the big shots on the Blue Princess, two hundred thousand kilometers away, see clearly.

In short, the exercise director made the rules very clear from the beginning.

First of all, the battle lasts only one hour. Once an hour has passed and there is no victory by sinking or gang-hopping, the victory or defeat of the battle will be announced by points. Yu Lian can understand this. You can't really expect the audience to watch everyone fight all day long, right?

Being able to watch them watch a ship duel with the same patience as watching movies and dramas is already very honorable.

Moreover, in real actual combat, even if there are single-ship encounters with warships of the same specifications, they basically occur under circumstances such as breaking diplomatic relations, hunting, and inserting behind enemy lines after the all-out war has begun.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for both sides to have the ideas and conditions for a protracted war.

Secondly, the airspace within the combat range is limited, and there is only such a spherical airspace with a radius of hundreds of thousands of kilometers. The external statement is of course for safety reasons. If the students really want to die and sail the boat too far, it will be dangerous, and their own rescue may be in trouble, etc.

Although the words are high-sounding, to put it bluntly, isn't it just to make the big shots feel comfortable?

Although the battle situation will be broadcast in a timely manner, if the red and blue beams of red and blue beams in the distant starry sky cannot be seen with the naked eye, the roar and flash of light clusters and missiles will always spoil the atmosphere.

This was a bit hard for Yu Lian to accept. After all, we are still fighting, and we don’t even have the freedom to be killed somewhere?

But since you have agreed to the exercise director’s department, you have to get things done! Not just him, but a large group of friends on the boat have worked hard for so long, isn't it just for this day? They are not just for the so-called youth, but also have the most realistic demands. For the vast majority of the crew on the red ship, this battle may be their only chance to show their faces.

Yu Lian looked at the direction of the blue ship in the distance, as if he wanted to see clearly the other party's status with his naked eyes. But in fact, in the vast sky, even with the eyesight of his second-level psychic, he could only see a little light flickering.

Immediately afterwards, he heard Liuli say: "The other party's communication has arrived, can you get through it?"

Yu Lian tightened his collar, took his seat in the captain's seat, and then said: "Let's put it through."

The Horatio Wayne who appeared on the screen was dressed neatly in military uniform, meticulous, with a serious face, an arrogant demeanor, and a domineering look. I have to admit, just standing there, this guy looks more like a captain than Yu Lian.

No, he is not just the captain of a mere ship with hundreds of people. Although this guy is young, it is not inconsistent to say that he is commanding thousands of troops just by his aura. He just has such charisma.

Although commanders of the Grand Fleet in their twenties are rare, they are not unheard of.

He looked directly at Yu Lian seriously, his eyes sharp and full of courage, as if he wanted to use his face to force Hong Fang to surrender.

"I hope it will be a good victory or defeat!" After a few seconds, he said solemnly.

"Definitely!" Yu Lian laughed, and then loudly said: "Then, the Red Tiger and all its crew are waiting for your bombardment!"

Everyone on the bridge wanted to bury their heads under the table, so sad and angry. This is naturally due to the shameful name of the ship.

Seeing that everyone on the red side would get a demoralized debff at the beginning because of the captain's taste, the cheeks full of Wayne twitched, and then loudly said: "All the crew members on the Blue King are waiting for you. charge!"

Wayne just turned off the communication without any explanation. Immediately afterwards, Yu Lian could feel the morale of everyone on the bridge increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"You see, bad taste is better than being sick. This is the power of the law of cause and effect weapon! I bet that the blue crew is already under low pressure." Yu Lian said to everyone. As a result, the entire communication channel in the ship burst into laughter, and everyone became excited and happy.

Half a minute later, a communication came from the director's department, reminding them that the battle was about to begin.

"After starting, immediately switch to the second combat speed! Start according to the march plan B!" Yu Lian said loudly: "Also, the ion main gun starts charging!"

"Keep Paul's team on standby! Be ready to eject at any time!"

Yu Lian issued the following orders in an orderly manner. He believed that the rhythm of Wayne on the opposite side must be similar to his own.

Both sides started their main engines at almost the same moment and prepared for action. But at this time, a small episode happened.

Edelweiss, who was dancing to Serena's song just now, was still wandering next to the Blue Princess. When she saw the engine halo of the red and blue battleship in the distance, she suddenly let out a cheerful laugh, just like that. Went in that direction.

"Traitor!" Serena Maho, who had just walked to the stage, stared at the little whale that was going away expressionlessly, and whispered: "This is the second time."

Feifei, who was waiting in the audience, heard this voice and couldn't help but laugh and cry.

"Sorry, Serena." Feifei said.

Serena turned back, not knowing why, and tilted her head to look at the latter.

"When it's over, I'll treat you to ice cream." Feifei smiled again and said, "There is a very good shop on this ship."

Serena swallowed, and her expression, as plain as a clear spring, finally showed the vividness that belonged to her age group. However, when he looked at the agent walking towards him in the distance, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

"I don't want to listen to her nagging!" Serena said.

"Don't worry, I have a hundred ways to get rid of her." Feifei held back her laughter and whispered while holding Serena's hand. The latter's eyes once again had a halo like stars.

"Fina, we're going on stage!" Someone from a distance waved to Fina. It was Laura Xia, the first host of the celebration and a well-known media personality in the community. One of Feifei's idols Ms. Er.

Feifei left Serena with a smile that made the other party look forward to it, and walked over to prepare to go on stage.

President Noxham clapped in a routine, but kept watching Serena's back with hidden, eager and reluctant eyes until she left the venue.

"Mr. President..." Nishita reminded him in a low voice behind him.

"Oh, oh!" The president came back to his senses, and his face seamlessly switched to a diplomatic expression full of expectation: "The next step is the performance of our brave young people, right? Well, Edelweiss will not cause What's the obstacle?"

"Don't worry, they won't fail to consider this kind of thing." The chairman smiled.

Just when Edelweiss was about to enter the battlefield, two engineering ships blocked his way. The exercise director and celebration organizers were not so stupid that they did not even consider this issue. Of course, they were well prepared.

One of the ships lit up various colored lights, creating a gorgeous scene in the universe, which finally diverted Edelweiss's attention.

Another engineering ship opened its belly and threw a series of food boxes wrapped in synthetic materials into the universe.

The food is mainly meat, nutritious feed prepared with high carbohydrates and high vitamins. The outer material is made of various metals, silicon, carbon and other elements. It is also one of the foods of Edelweiss.

Yes, this kind of space Leviathan creature that can travel in the universe, in addition to nourishing itself through the energy of stars, can also eat itself. The diet not only contains proteins, vitamins, carbohydrates, etc. required by normal organisms, but also contains a large number of abnormal elements.

To put it bluntly, although they are big, they are actually quite easy to feed. In theory, they can survive by eating rocks. Of course, eating meat will make you feel happy and make you grow better.

All in all, the two engineering ships, like nannies with toys and snacks, finally took away the little ancestor who was loved by all the people of Blue Star.

Then, as the engines of the red and blue sides started smoothly and entered combat mode, the scene in the venue became lively again.

Serena Mao, who had just returned to the lounge, was sitting in the lounge with a bored look on her face, exuding a salty aura that was incompatible with the entire ship. Her eyes were dull, her mind was wandering, and all her thoughts went to the ice cream she had made with Feifei.

"According to the statistics just now, when you came on stage, the number of viewers exceeded 120 billion, a direct increase of 10%. Serena, with such popularity and influence, even in the league, you must be the most The red ones!" the agent said with an excited tone.

"Oh..." The young singer still expressed his attitude in a tone with almost no ups and downs.

The agent sighed helplessly and said: "The head office has contacted me and I hope you can think about it again and put the development center of your activities in the league in the future."

"Really?" She still had the same attitude, neither cold nor hot, as if except singing, everything around her had nothing to do with her.

"In addition, at the head office... although we also know that they are all groundless rumors, they will have a certain impact after all. We also hope that you can specifically refute the rumors. Also, try to avoid going out alone in the future. I I believe President Noxham will understand."

Serena Mayo crossed her eyes and seemed to have finally regained a little bit of her energy. She slowly stood up and breathed out coldly: "I want to go for a walk."

"Ah, this, aunt, here is a ship..."

"Cruise ship! There are parks, swimming pools, and commercial streets." She said.

"Do you still want to go shopping?" The agent's voice rose an octave, but at this time, the girl was already yawning and slowly walked to the door.

Fortunately, this talented and beautiful singer famous in the Milky Way is not too neurotic. At least she wore a very inconspicuous sportswear, tied her long hair into a ponytail and put it under the hood, then put on sunglasses that covered half of her face, and then went out.

The agent lady knew that this little aunt was such a virtuous person, and there was nothing she could do to stop her. She waved her hand helplessly, and two machines the size of Frisbees followed closely.

When Serena went out for a walk, what bothered her most was that someone was following her. Fortunately, there are always bodyguard robots in this world. Although his intelligence is not very high, his combat effectiveness is still very high. At least he can take down ordinary stalkers, paparazzi, gangsters, etc., and call the police on the way.

Moreover, these two bodyguard robots designed in the shape of Frisbees are actually quite cute and can be accepted by girls.

"The Fairy of the Stars", Miss Serena Mayo is really just out for a walk. This was also her habit after every performance, and she would always walk aimlessly for an hour or two. While walking, completely let go of your spirit. Probably because her small body contains so much explosive power, she needs to recharge it all the time.

The Azure Princess is also one of the largest ultra-luxury cruise ships in the galaxy. It is as big as a city and has very complete facilities. It's not so much a cruise ship as it is a super-large space city. Not to mention a dome park and swimming pool, there are even theme parks and residential areas.

The so-called residential area on this ship is a large area of ​​high-end dome villas, with two to three thousand in total. Some dignitaries felt that living on a big ship and cruising the stars every day was a very elegant vacation activity, so they directly bought the villa above and would always stay there for two or three months every year. Not only the community, but also many wealthy businessmen and guests from foreign countries.

The Blue Princess is very big, and it is really big enough for the singer lady to hang around.

Serena Mao is not tall, but her walking speed is not slow either. It is more like a race than a walk. This is actually one of her "quirks".

As she walked, her eyes were still as if she were in a state of confusion. But in fact, at this time, she was really thinking about something rare.

"I, I'm sorry for you. But, I also have my own reasons!"

"Thank you, thank you for being willing to come out to have dinner with me. From now on, can you come out once a week, no, once a month! This is my only request! Please, Serena!"

"...Serena, my little moon, wait until the election next year. Then I can openly admit your existence!"

She frowned a little irritably, slowed down a little, and walked slowly through the commercial street - for security reasons, this place was actually closed - and then she turned back at a faster speed. , looking helplessly at an ice cream shop whose door was only half closed.

The "Elf of the Stars" was silent for a second, looked around, and found another beverage shop that was closed. However, perhaps for the convenience of reopening, the facilities outside the store, such as drink cups and seats, were not included in the store.

"I'm annoyed... everything, Fina, I'm sorry, I'm going to run away." She mentally apologized to her friend, whom she had only known for a few months, and then walked forward and picked up a drink very calmly. paper cup.

"Miss, miss, this will violate your public image." A Frisbee robot flew to the girl's side and warned in a low voice.

Serena Mao ignored it, walked to the door of the ice cream shop holding the cup, stood on tiptoes, leaned down, and used her strength to reach the paper cup in her hand towards the ice cream machine behind the railing door.

"Miss, miss, this will violate your public image." The robot was still reminding tirelessly and loyally.

Serena is really not tall enough, and in the end she couldn't reach the ice cream machine. She thought carefully, then pulled the two Frisbee robots down and stepped on their heads.

"Lift off!" Serena ordered in a lazy tone.

"This is a crime, this is a crime!"

Even so, as the singer's bodyguard robots, they still carried out their master's orders seriously.

This time it was finally enough, and the machine didn't shut down. Serena looked at the cup filled with fragrant ice cream and swallowed. This is probably the first time in half a year that she can enjoy this cool delicacy.

However, at this moment, she stumbled and jumped forward.

After professional debugging, the most advanced bodyguard robots are indeed very advanced. One of them quickly turned on the magnetic function to stabilize Serena's body. Another quick move was an emergency levitation, blocking Serena, and then an armored collision towards the railing door over there.

Then, there was a "bang" sound.

Serena Mao, along with two of her robots, crashed into the ice cream shop, causing a mess. Of course, with the protection of two loyal robots, although the starry elf lady was buried by a lot of store facilities, she was not injured and still held the ice cream in her hand high.

Therefore, she did not notice that while she was dizzy in the ice cream shop, a group of "mechanical giants" loaded with live ammunition slowly walked away from the passage three blocks away from her.

Neither she nor them noticed the other's existence.
