Him and their stars

Now Colonel Yeager Soback really wants to cry.

He really didn't understand that he was just a worm who wanted to sneak into the equipment and logistics department to find food in two years. He was the only rat shit in the Astral Knights. How could he have to serve as the plenipotentiary representative of the empire? Have you participated in this joint investigation operation of Laoshizi?

It's just to track down the main fleet of predators, but he actually has to work with that evil star.

"If I had known better, I would have followed Countess Lamut and the others to the Abyss Nebula. Although the pirates there are very fierce, can they compare to this guy who must not even be named? Yeager Sobai Damn, it's all your fault!" At this moment, he was so remorseful that he wished he could travel back to a month ago and strangle himself to death on the spot.

This newcomer to the Astral Knights, who had made great contributions in the Battle of Modan System, declined the invitation of Giaphiel Lamut, the daughter-in-law of the Knights (the younger generation), the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings, after the battle.

At that time, Giaphiel received the first star map information within the Abyss Nebula, and decided to enter it personally to explore, and also sent an invitation to Soback.

This newcomer from the colonial guard force can almost be regarded as the biggest surprise of the Astral Knights in this unlucky year. More and more people have high hopes for him. Giafel was naturally very interested in this colleague, and wanted to take this opportunity to communicate and win over him.

However, Colonel Soback felt that he had done the job of going deep into the firing line to detect the enemy's situation, and he had also made great contributions in killing generals and capturing the flag in the Battle of Modan. Although the enemy's last flagship was taken away by the evil star, it was extremely difficult. The predators in the Xinjiang Star Region have indeed been eliminated.

After fighting so many battles, why don't you expect him to take a break?

In addition, since he has achieved good military exploits, he should find a way to show his face in front of the nearby big leaders. The upper-level route and the lower-level performance are both blossoming. This is the only way to move towards a bright future!

Just at this time, Admiral Farrell also arrived in the Modan system. He was regarded as a popular candidate to be the future leader of the Grand Marshal's Palace. Naturally, Colonel Soback would not let him go to face him. Chance.

However, what he never expected was that he would be caught on the spot, and so, together with the Tempest, he would be included in the reinforcement fleet rushing to the Gate of Glory.

If that's the case, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Judging from the strategic situation, the predator fleet that is harassing the Gate of Glory will definitely be flanked to death by our two sides. In fact, such a battle is not too dangerous, and it may be possible to achieve a lot of military exploits.

Moreover, Admiral Farrell had heard Soback's name from Rear Admiral Biffick and admired him very much. He often invited him to the bridge to give him advice and asked him if he would like to serve as the commander's third officer. To serve at the Guards Fleet Headquarters, even if you are unwilling, you should serve as the commander-in-chief of the actual combat forces, or serve as the head of an important department in the General Staff or the General Logistics Department of the Grand Marshal's Palace, rather than continue to serve in the Knights. I'm dawdling around here.

Forget about the commander of actual combat troops, but I like the latter one very much. Soback thought.

All in all, his future is bright! Not a small good but a big good!

However, what Mr. Yeager Soback never expected was that on the way to the Gate of Glory, he would be overwhelmed with all kinds of bad news.

What? Have the Reavers crossed the Abyss Nebula? What? King Slein was assassinated? What? Did they rush directly through the Gate of Glory and enter the New World?

In the end, he simply gave up thinking. Anyway, the situation is so chaotic that it's not my turn to think about it, so I should just let the big shots have a headache.

Of course, Colonel Soback was indeed from a colony in the New World, but he came from the No. 1 Colonial Governor's District after the L1 Star Gate "Gate of Dawn". The remaining manors and factories of the family are all over there. There are still 10,000 to 20,000 light-years away from the Gate of Glory, and there is no stable course in the Fairy Nebula, so there is no need to worry about the safety there. At most, he could only express his moral concerns about the safety of the people in the Gate of Glory colony like a standard Tiruiro noble.

As a result, one day, General Farrell, the biggest figure in charge of the Gate of Glory theater and a man who admired him very much, called him into the office: "Colonel, the empire has a glorious and arduous task to hand. for you."

Soback didn't know why, but out of the self-cultivation of a good living person, he immediately stood up and saluted, pretending to be waiting for his mission. At this moment, his whole body was filled with a firm sense of mission.

"As long as the empire and your Excellency have a mission, I will do my best to achieve my mission! Only the end of my life will stop me from serving the motherland and your great kindness! Please feel free to give me your orders!"

Admiral Farrell felt that this guy was a bit too flashy, but his attitude was still very satisfactory.

"It's not to this level yet, but I do feel your noble officer's loyalty. All in all, the empire needs your face." The general hid his scrutinizing gaze behind a warm smile: "At the God of War Festival, your noble officer is with me. Even the colonel, we get along pretty well, right?"

Colonel Soback didn't understand much at the time, but when he did, he was so shocked that he almost fainted on the spot.

At that critical moment, although he relied on his firm willpower as a living person to support him, he still felt that his little heart was really starting to get cold.

He had been feeling cold until now, but when he actually met Yu Lian, and immediately entered a state of self-destruction, he was not so cold anymore.

If you think about it carefully, this evil star who cannot even be named, although he is ruthless and murderous, even including widows and minors, is not unreasonable. As long as you don't offend him, not only can you survive, but you can also gain some merit.

Didn't this already be proven during the last God of War Festival?

Thinking of this, Colonel Soback had already planned all the objectives of this operation. As the representative of the Empire in this joint operation, he must show the Empire as the person in charge of the galactic power. Of course, he must do his best and work hard to cooperate with the commander to complete the mission.

While he was thinking this, he began to introduce the members of the officer corps behind him in detail to Yu Lian.

Apart from Thorback himself, there are no psykers, and the highest ranking officer is a major, but they are all experts in interstellar reconnaissance and tracking, intelligence processing operations, and technicians who operate and maintain the most sophisticated detection equipment.

They are all technocrats, with outstanding abilities, and they will not threaten the command of the remaining companies. This is what Colonel Soback begged Admiral Farrell to allocate from the fleet.

For the sake of the commander, his deputy commander really worked hard! These days, are there any deputies who think about the officer as much as I do?

Colonel Soback looked at the cruiser outside the porthole again: "In addition, the Buran will also join this operation as a support ship."

Yu Lian saw that the other party's eyes were a little subtle, and there must be something behind his words, so he smiled and said: "After your reminder, I remembered it. When this ship was still in the hands of the predators, the heaviest damage it suffered was Wasn't that the Buran blasted out with a space torpedo?"

Colonel Soback nodded and said: "I understand your concerns. So to show sincerity, the Buran will also be included in your command sequence. In addition, I will also be permanently stationed on this ship."

To put it bluntly, this is treating yourself as a hostage.

I have lowered my attitude so low. You can't continue to persecute me, right? Colonel Soback thought.

Yu Lian looked at his temporary deputy, who looked upright on the surface but was submissive on the inside. His mood was a little complicated for a moment.

Judging from the experience of his previous life, Yeager Soback is actually a good person in the worldly sense. Although he is greedy and lazy in politics, he never kills indiscriminately, and even once took out precious military rations and distributed them to An example of a passing refugee flotilla. In addition, as a senior officer of the empire, he is indeed a harmless person despite being mediocre and cowardly.

Yu Lian is really too lazy to set up defenses against such people.

However, we must also know that a person's destiny must not only consider personal struggle, but also the process of history. The fate of Yeager Soback in this life is actually very different from that of another timeline.

Let’s take another look. Yu Lian thought as he squeezed his hand again: "I'm looking forward to our cooperation again!"

"The same applies to me." Sobek was so painful that he almost cried, but he still kept his voice low and remained motionless.

However, the reporters next to them all became excited, and took pictures with long guns and short cannons. This is clearly a pair of young heroes who are destined to be entangled for life. A pair of old enemies who admire each other but have to confront each other because of their positions. Now, inspired by the righteousness of the welfare of all civilizations, they have decided to fight side by side.

What is passion burning? That’s it! What does lofty ideals mean? This is it! What does it mean to be young and frivolous? This is it!

This is not called news, so why is it called news?

They feel that this is truly witnessing history!

"Colonel Yu Lian, this is John Prince from GNN." A reporter from the community squeezed into the front of the crowd: "Does this joint operation reflect some kind of diplomatic signal between the two countries? Do you think this is important to us?" What impact will it have on the political situation of the entire universe in the future?”

Is this too big of a question? And you actually came to ask me, an ordinary colonel who is harmless to humans and animals, if your heart is too big? How can he be a frontline reporter for GNN with this level of skill? But, having said that, I seem to have seen this face before somewhere. Where did it come from?

Yu Lian suddenly realized that this was the reporter he met in the lunar city who claimed to be a second-ring "walker"?

He later also got to know Mr. John Prince specifically. This gentleman can be regarded as one of the names of the community. Although his organizational relationship is with GNN, in fact the two parties only have a cooperative relationship. I am more like a semi-independent investigative reporter, running around the universe. Whether it is political and military frontier intelligence or hot social events, they are all within his scope.

...Well, in a universe with extraordinary beings, security is not very good. If you don't master some psychic powers, if you really want to be an investigative reporter running around, who knows what day you will die in that unknown corner of the universe.

"So we are old friends!" Yu Lian said with a smile: "However, since we are old friends, I must solemnly remind you, and everyone present, not to live in the memories of the past. , and we must learn to look forward to the future. Dear journalists here, if you really want to make big news, then go to the new world in the future. Whether you accept it or not, at this moment, our two countries have always We are moving forward hand in hand. Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway! This is a miracle of righteousness in the world!"

The Imperial reporters suddenly burst into applause, which also affected the Community reporters next to them, and the scene suddenly became harmonious.

Regardless of whether it is the empire or the community, they are actually very happy to turn this war into a grand show. However, the so-called "joint reconnaissance mission" meant that the empire was forced to pinch its nose and take remedial measures. It can end in this way, which is indeed in line with the expectations of all the big figures in the two countries.

So, not long after the press conference ended, the Scarlet Throne Dauntless... armed reconnaissance ship officially completed its preliminary renovation. The Imperial Engineers had done everything they could.

Yu Lian estimated that with the current state of the ship, even if it did encounter Wuwei, it would be able to confront it, or at least it would be possible to retreat safely.

Of course, if you encounter the Star Dragon Kings, Leviathan, the cosmic overlord of the same level, will be able to last at least three to five rounds. perhaps……

Then, with the expected blessings of most people and the complicated gazes of a few people, the scarlet "armed reconnaissance ship" and the cruiser Buran, which was only one-tenth of its length, left the starport and headed towards the galaxy. Driving towards the huge door of glory. The giant ship sank into the ripples in the center of the star gate, as if it were sinking into a lake of mercury, and disappeared in an instant.

At this time, they were already in another universe.

Mr. John Prince, a well-known investigative reporter of the Community and business partner of GNN, witnessed this mysterious but magnificent scene through the porthole on the balcony of the Star Port Hotel, but his expression and heart were calm. .

He waved his hand, and a camera robot of the same size floated next to him, and made a clear and sweet loli voice: "Master, can you connect the line D003?"

"Connected, but using an encrypted intelligence band that cannot be monitored."

"True Love is trying to cut into the source wave communication line of Ailan Trading Company." The robot replied: "However, Master, your lovely little Ji must seriously remind you that your current behavior has constituted twelve counts of information security crimes and endangering national defense. It’s a security crime. Once discovered, he will be sentenced to at least the death penalty or a jail sentence with a slight delay!”

"There is no more serious punishment than beheading."

But the robot pretended not to hear it: "If you are discovered and you are going to be beheaded in public, can you let me go? This universe is really big, and I really want to see everywhere."

"Don't worry, I will sell your motherboard and hard drive back to the handsome old man across the street before I'm arrested."

"Damn it! [○｀Д○]! @$%\u0026^!" The robot used a crunchy lolita sound to blast out a swear word that would have divided the entire movie into three levels if used in a movie. Then there was no sound. At this time, a small window opened behind it, and a holographic projection popped up. It turned out to be an energetic and elegant old gentleman.

If it were Yu Lian's friends at the Red Maple Factory, they would definitely be familiar with this old man. It is this old man who has opened a technical consulting firm, a machinery maintenance workshop, a workers' club and two restaurants in Maple City. Mr. Trend is also the richest man in Lumina.
