Him and their stars

Colonel Yeager Soback was really filled with a sense of joy in surviving the disaster. The little heart that was about to jump out of my chest just now slowly fell back into my heart. The painful struggle after discovering a certain blind spot was finally in the past.

The golden atomic light spear with bright, majestic and even arrogant energy is indeed a rare special product, but it is not unheard of. However, as soon as he saw the gorgeous beam of light that was like a fragment of sunlight, Colonel Soback couldn't help but think of the scene that brought him to the pinnacle of his current life.

That was the final celebration of the 250th God of War Festival. As a member of the "championship team", of course he was also present, accepting the cheers and envy of the entire galaxy.

Of course, it was also at that scene that His Majesty the Emperor gave a shining atomic spear to a certain evil star whose name cannot be mentioned.

Yes, that's the one.

That evil star? Isn't he at His Highness Brünnhilt's place? It seems that he is still an observer on the Dawn Angel.

If you think about it carefully, the lion's den is not far from here - more than two hundred light years in fact - so it is reasonable to appear here.

But, does King Suliuka appreciate him so much? Did you give both the dragon and the heraldry machine? When that guy first participated in the God of War Festival, he came on King Suliuka's dragon boat! It’s really hard to say what the relationship is.

The little dragonesses of the Dawn Royal Family are all so willful, who knows what they can be. Even if he did something that caused an uproar in the empire, only the big shots in the Privy Council were qualified to make an uproar. What does it have to do with him?

In short, as a qualified imperial officer, Soback felt that he should pay attention to this issue. As an excellent imperial officer, he should report the situation here as soon as possible. The opponent is riding a dragon and carrying a light spear, so it must be related to the Knights headquarters. This is a very reasonable speculation. This is not something that an ordinary young colonel and a newcomer to the Knights can handle without authorization.

Therefore, Colonel Soback first reported the King Tiger that was still in the Modan system. But at this time, Major General Biffick had already been sent to the treatment cabin. Major General Herwag, the chief of staff who was presiding over daily affairs and the end of the campaign, did not dare to stop at all and went directly to Este who was still on Luyuan Planet. The marshal made the briefing.

If he were an all-round and graceful master who was good at dancing, he would have informed King Suliuka of the Lion's Den Fortress, but this Chief of Staff Hervag was an old-school soldier who seemed to have stepped out of the military discipline code.

He was just out of basic emotional intelligence, and he considered it as a courtesy to launch a simple battle report that "we have pushed the Marauder flagship into a desperate situation". No detailed development was mentioned at all.

As for Marshal Este of Luyuan Star, he was also puzzled when looking at the battle report. He just remembered that among the dragon knights who arrived at the front line, apart from King Suliuka's command, there should be only the small fleet led by Viscount Shameen.

It's just that the young knight is now brave enough to charge to the bridge of the dreadnought alone? Then why did you get hit on the head by that boy from Earth during the God of War Festival?

Therefore, the old marshal sent inquiries to both parties, and also notified the headquarters of the Knights of Tianyu.

After going through so many departments and spending tens of millions in energy wave communication fees, the Snowstorm finally received an order from King Su, asking them to rush over to intercept it immediately and be sure to capture the "knight".

The original word in the order is "take", which means that it must be captured alive and no one can be harmed.

But at this time, five or six minutes had passed, and everything was already too late.

To be fair, after consulting and coordinating with so many departments, only a small amount of time was wasted. The efficiency of the imperial bureaucrats is absolutely excellent.

However, it was too late. The scarlet dreadnought, which was already riddled with holes and would have completely collapsed if hit a few more times, simply jumped and disappeared.

Seeing the cooked duck fly away, the imperial soldiers were naturally furious. Of course, even if they let go of the predator flagship, the results of their pursuit would be brilliant enough. But in this case, if they make less money, they will of course lose it.

The only person who was relieved was Sobek himself. From the beginning, he didn't want to face off against the evil star whose name must not be mentioned. Even if the other party only has a small boat and a "defected" dragon, but he can ride the dragon to charge at the bridge of the dreadnought, why can't he charge at his own small cruiser?

Moreover, what does taking it mean? Isn't it because the queen is afraid of hurting her little lover? How to fight? This is the best thing now. Wouldn't it be achieved in a world where no one is harmed?

But how did the ship jump away? Is there a gravity well there?

Colonel Soback was puzzled while commanding his men to launch a final attack on the enemy fire-breathing ship that was still resisting. When half of the ship's hull was blasted to the point where only one surviving frame was left, the remaining raiders finally came out and surrendered, still holding the captain's head in their hands.

As a result, the heroic soldiers of the empire once again created a record of defeating large ships with small boats that could be used in textbooks.

At this time, the edge of the distant galaxy flickered a few times, and several more imperial warships entered the galaxy. It was the imperial pursuit fleet commanded by Countess Giaphire Lamut, and it was naturally directed at Yu Lian.

Of course, Colonel Soback knew the only woman among the Four Heavenly Kings of the Knights (the younger generation). She was also the pride of heaven among the top class of the empire.

However, what made him slightly flattered was that Giafel actually recognized him.

"Colonel Yu Lian has recommended noble officials to me and His Highness, and we have also learned about your information." Giafel said.

Soback's mood at this time was extremely complicated, he was both moved and guilty. Although he is the evil star who cannot even be mentioned, the natural enemy of the Knights, he has always admired that person, otherwise he would not work hard to learn various local techniques of rubbing discordant objects with his hands. .

But now, I feel even more grateful.

"...It would be nice if he was from the Empire." Colonel Soback said.

"We think so too. But the empire should have included the earth." Giafel sighed quietly, and then said seriously: "Describe the scene to me carefully. Where did he jump to? Really? Is it the Abyss Nebula?”

"I'm not sure, either." Soback smiled bitterly. After all, the moment matter enters the gravity well, it disappears with just a flash. At most, there is only a fleeting visual dislocation.

"However, I already know about that... Colonel Yu Lian. If he continues to escape, he will never choose the direction of the Gate of Glory."

The countess quickly understood what the other party meant. You must know that the dreadnought has been seriously injured. It may suddenly fall apart at any time, and it will be difficult for the target to escape. If he were heading towards the Gate of Glory, he would probably encounter the scene of a battle between the Lueros and the Empire's Gate of Glory Military District. Even a stray bullet might kill him. This is never a smart choice.

However, if you enter the Abyss Nebula, although it is a dangerous move with a narrow escape, but with luck, you might be able to find a place for repairs and supplies.

As we all know, it is a paradise for outlaws and underworld elements. In a place like this, as long as you are willing to pay enough, you may even enjoy the treatment of a prince.

"Then, now comes the question. According to the star map, there is only one unstable channel between the Gray Wind 07 galaxy and the White Deer 72 galaxy in the Abyss Nebula, right? It is still in a state of collapse and can accommodate a dreadnought. Passed?" Giafel had already opened the nearby star map, frowning and pointing at the dotted line between the two galaxies. A large string of data and characters suddenly popped up there.

"Even in the maximum expansion state, the upper limit is only five million tons." It was Nelhana who spoke.

Although Soback did not know this lady, he understood that any female knight who appeared next to Suliuka must be an important person, so he said respectfully: "Your judgment is correct. Therefore, I feel that , maybe the predators have mastered the detailed star map of the Abyss Nebula? When Xia Guan was chasing them just now, they didn't look like they were desperate and forced into a dead end. They really believed that they could escape."

He paused and then said: "Or perhaps, before this invasion, the Predators had reached a certain tacit understanding with the underworld chiefs of the Abyss Nebula. If the battle situation is unfavorable, they can retreat to the Abyss Nebula for refuge. ?”

Giafel and Nelhana looked at each other and thought that this might be the most likely explanation at the moment. However, when he thought about it more carefully, the expressions of the two people suddenly became extremely ugly.

"I now know where the rest of the main fleet is."

"I, I know it too! But, passing a big ship and passing an entire large fleet are completely different things!"

"If there is a new star map, it's really hard to tell."

None of the female knights knew whether it was too late to know this issue now. They can only believe that the commander-in-chief of the empire in the direction of the Gate of Glory can make appropriate arrangements.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

The headquarters of the Gate of Glory Military Region is located on a planet called Green Ocean Star.

This is an Earth-like planet with a population of three billion. More than 80% of the entire planet's surface is covered by the ocean. The climate is pleasant and the scenery is magnificent. There are gentle giants growing in the ocean. The seabed is covered with rich resources including zero elements. However, under the influence of an atmosphere rich in certain trace elements, the planet wrapped in a blue ocean appears to be a clear and mysterious green in the universe.

Therefore, it has the reputation of "Emerald on the Gate of Glory".

In addition, scientists have proven that trace elements in the atmosphere are not only harmless, but also stimulate metabolism and hormone secretion. Except for the unpredictable impact on social morality, it is actually a good thing.

In short, if it were not located on the border, it would definitely be a perfect tourist destination.

This is a green ocean planet that is only three jumps away from the empire's border and only four jumps away from the L3 star gate "Gate of Glory". It is almost the habitable planet closest to the empire's border. This was the headquarters that the contemporary King Borei III of Slein moved here after he was promoted to Marshal of the Empire and commander of the Glory Gate Military Region.

According to him, since he is the king of Fortress, he should guard the frontier fortress all the time.

At this time, the huge fleet affiliated to the military region had left the Star Gate and Green Ocean Star, and headed to two star regions where war might occur to set up defenses - naturally the empire's border front line and the direction of the Extreme Star Region.

But at this time, Green Ocean Star still gathered a large fleet. Most of them were armed merchant ships and transport ships, and they were the reserve force assembled by the "fu soldiers" composed of surrounding nobles and citizens.

King Borei III of Srein holds the largest strategic cluster in the Galactic Empire, and faces a pan-military alliance composed of more than a dozen countries. Of course, behind this alliance is the alliance, but it’s hard for everyone to say. This is the main antagonist.

In addition, there are the pirates and smugglers in the Abyss Nebula who can never be eliminated. These are the secondary opponents.

The nature of the work will naturally determine the battle formation. The fleet under King Slein's command will not be lacking, whether it is large battleships used for strategic decisive battles or high-speed cruisers for breaking diplomatic patrols. The military strength will never be as stretched as in Jijiang.

However, after hearing about the situation in the Lion's Den, this one of the only active marshals among the elected emperors, after thinking for a few minutes, used his authority as a frontline warden to send troops to the Gate of Glory sector and its surrounding areas. Several vassal territories issued mobilization orders, asking them to mobilize their "government troops" to assemble at major defense nodes.

"The behavior of the plunderers is unreasonable. Therefore, I must ask all the princes, squires and citizens of the empire to fulfill their obligations." The veteran general noticed something unreasonable and immediately made a decision: "I don't know Something will go wrong, but it will definitely go wrong! In this case, we should mobilize all our forces and be fully prepared. This may be suspected of mobilizing troops and mobilizing troops and consuming military resources, but it is better than encountering an unexpected situation. , but it was too late to react well."

It is a great responsibility to issue a mobilization order when it is clear that no enemy has entered the defense area. If it turns out later that he was just overreacting, even if he elects an emperor and an imperial marshal, it will be difficult to escape impeachment for abuse of power. Although King Slein has been in the military for a long time, he also has his own sphere of influence in the political and business circles. Of course, he will not have no enemies at all.

However, as the Sai King of the empire, he still made the decision without hesitation.

The senior officers of the Glory Gate Military Region were immediately in awe and quickly issued the order to elect the emperor.

Although Green Ocean Star is the star district capital and military district headquarters of Glory Gate, it is also the gathering point for mobilization troops.

Before the news of the invasion of plunderers on the border had spread, the neighboring armies from the three nearby vassal territories and the citizen mobilization soldiers from the twelve "Zhechong Mansion" had already arrived at Green Ocean Star and were in low-Earth orbit. Assembling and reorganizing.

This is a force composed of more than 400 armed merchant ships that can go to the front line and more than 300,000 armed soldiers. Most of them have service and combat experience. As long as the officers assigned to them by the military region have completed the basic reorganization work and become familiar with the officers and soldiers under their command, they are ready to go to the battlefield.

There are three more assembly points like this within the entire military region.

The scale of this gathering was indeed several blocks ahead of the Gate of Glory.

There is no way. Although the Gate of Glory is also the border star region of the empire, it does have much more population and resources than the Extreme Star Region.

However, according to the normal operation of the imperial social circle, the leaders of these mobilization troops, a marquis and two earls, twelve governors of the Zhechong Mansion, and other famous squires should come to visit them together and immediately become a tiger. The commander-in-chief of King Srein. The latter should also arrange a polite reception.

Everyone socializes and compliments each other, and the guest and host have a good time, so that we can continue to cooperate. You must know that among these princes and local celebrities, in addition to the human nobles who have retired from the country, there is also a Legg giant named Chult. Although this man is only a non-hereditary life-long viscount, he is the most prestigious warrior leader in the local Laig Dominion.

Therefore, a grand reception is not only a normal social interaction before military operations, but also serves as a united front function.

Although King Slein, who was both civilized and military, could not be considered a social nerd, his emotional intelligence was above average, so he naturally held a grand dinner at his official residence.

At the dinner, the emperor-elect listened to the speeches of all representatives on the current situation, exchanged extensive opinions with the princes and celebrities present, and reached a basic consensus.

Overall, the atmosphere was one of peace and tranquility, if not for the guests and hosts to enjoy themselves. Everyone should be able to cooperate. Everything seems to be developing in a good direction...
