Him and their stars

Ash Fashbit, 28 years old, is a "walker" who travels the second ring of the Star Ring. He is a B-level adventurer of the Alliance Adventurers Association. He is good at planet development and protection and ruin exploration. He also has a registered reserve member of the Guerrilla Association. Guerrillas. The reason why he is a preparation is because this guy has never served in the military, nor has he performed extraordinary law enforcement tasks. To put it bluntly, he has never been a "court eagle dog."

In addition, according to the conclusion from the physical examination at the Supernatural Management Bureau last year, his strength has reached its peak and he is almost ready to prepare for the three-ring promotion ceremony.

A "casual cultivator" who does not have any top sect or sect inheritance, but has only received a general education in mysticism, can be regarded as a very rare talent before reaching this level of strength before the age of thirty. According to rumors, based on the consistent approach of the alliance's rulers, they should make him one of their own. Ya Xiu, who was born in an ordinary family, thought about it carefully and felt that if the rumors were true, he would still follow it. Anyway, he had no intention of working hard.

Therefore, the year before last, during a protection mission by chance, he met the daughter of the Moen family, Ms. Taina Moen, who worked as an investigative reporter for the famous "Star Herald".

During this mission, Ash and the reporter had several experiences of life and death. The relationship between the two also changed from mutual contempt, to reluctant cooperation, to fighting side by side, to finally sharing weal and woe, which was exactly like a movie plot. Expand.

Ash just thinks that you guys, the big shots in the upper class, are really good at playing, so he doesn't doubt him.

Miss Taina Morn is a bookish beauty who definitely belongs to the straight target of low school bastards like Ash. If it were her, it would be completely acceptable even if she didn't work hard.

However, what Ya Xiu never expected was that after the mission was over, when he was waiting for a movie version to end, he saw the other party showing an expression that was half-smiling but not smiling, and the corners of his elegant raised mouth seemed to be full of sarcasm. : "I heard that you have a clue about Hui, right?"

Ash Fashbit, a ranger adventurer who had been out for ten years, was suddenly in extreme panic. To his own surprise, although he was frightened, his mood was very calm, at least he didn't show any obvious gaffe.

"...It's really interesting. This must be your biggest secret, right? Now that you have been discovered, you are so calm." The reporter suddenly became interested: "Is it because someone has discovered you before?"

Ash couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Don't normal people feel that they have recognized the wrong person?"

"It's just a coincidence. I can only say that Mr. Ash, you are not lucky." Miss Moen did not discuss this issue too much and directly changed the topic: "The community's new Yumen colonial planet is undergoing a large-scale In terms of industrial construction, in addition to Zi Xinhui’s food and spice factory, Hong Maple Factory, which was particularly popular last year, is also planning to build a factory. I’m going to give a special report with you, do you want to come together?”

Ya Xiu accompanied him with a smile and said: "... But, can you not go? Our Fa Xiu Bit family is of the same lineage, and I haven't married yet. I can sell you the clues and stuff in my hand. .And then keep it secret about everything, really!”

"...You don't think that after I succeed, I will silence you, do you?"

Wouldn't it?

"Don't worry, even Yamida and Claire will not do such a thing casually. You are not important enough that they need to sacrifice their bottom line." Miss Taina Morn said.

Ash didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a moment.

""Moreover, I'm not the same person as them at all. Taina smiled and said: "In short, "Pioneer News" will continue to employ you as my assistant and bodyguard, and the contract period is one year. You have no right to refuse, otherwise I will report you to the Supernatural Administration for collecting illegal occult materials and evading taxes. "

And you said you are not from the same group? The knight wanted to cry but had no tears.

In this way, he became the eldest lady's follower, and returned to Xinyumen after more than three years of absence - this place he had never planned to come to again, even if there must be something buried somewhere here He was definitely not prepared to find any clues about a great relic code-named "Grey".

Fortunately, in the first few months after arriving in Xinyumen, the eldest daughter of the Moen family was really just performing her job as an investigative reporter. In addition to recording the factory construction process of the Zixinhui Group, she also spared a lot of time to interview the construction site of the Red Maple Factory. She even went to the settlement of the Sha people to interview, and took the trouble to ask about their lives. situation.

This eldest lady is not only an investigative reporter, but she is also a civil rights reporter.

Ash knew that "The Pioneer" was the largest civil rights media in the alliance and opposed to human supremacy. He just didn't expect that this young lady was very serious and professional. I originally thought it was just for gold plating.

"So, you are also against human supremacy?"

"Human supremacy is actually a false proposition. Who is nobler, a Nediaron senator or a human vagabond? For example, you, Mr. Ash, a reserve guerrilla and a B-class explorer, Deputy Director Hexuluo, who is noble?"

Xuluo is the deputy director of the Alliance's Extraordinary Administration, but he is a flat-faced Obo man.

...However, human members of the House of Representatives and the Senate account for more than 80% of the seats. But humans only account for less than half of the total population of the alliance! Ash thought.

Of course, he himself didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

"I always feel that the world shouldn't be like this, which is why I became an investigative reporter." Taina Mohn said.

This idealist's brilliance almost blinded Ash. Although he couldn't accept it, he didn't hate it, and he quite enjoyed the time spent with the reporter.

If the predators hadn't broken through the Gate of Glory and the ferocious army of nomadic barbarians had descended on the starry sky, he would have wished that this period of time had lasted longer.

Even if the plunderer just fought back, the man actually followed him.

All in all, the imperial devils are so shameless! Just let the plunderer in, why did you let that person in too!

So, Ash wanted to drag Miss Taina away and showed her the reason why a rich man cannot sit down in court.

"As for the ashes... they are there and won't run away. Now we have half of the clues in our hands. Even if there are other treasure hunters, they can't take away the things."

However, Miss Taina asked back: "Now can you tell me where the clues about Yi Hui are? Or, in other words, who was the one who saw through you last time?"

The ranger was speechless for a moment, trying to figure out some deceptive lines, but Miss Taina nodded and said: "I understand, it is indeed that person!"

"Your experience in Xinyumen and all your actions after returning to the country can be traced. As long as you go to check it out, there is no reason that cannot be found." Taina Moen said solemnly: " If he hadn't come, I could have left. But now that he's here, I can't leave. What's more, there will be a war here soon. After all, I am still a reporter! "

The biggest dream of a serious reporter is to be a war correspondent. We have to be fortunate that, despite being born into a well-born family, Miss Tayna Moen is indeed a serious reporter.

Ever since, the reporter lady and her temporary attendant stayed here. In addition to continuing to perform her functions as a reporter, she also continues to pursue clues about "Gray".

"I do want to cooperate with that divinely chosen champion. However, before the cooperation officially begins, the more information we have, the more shares we will get during the final distribution. This is why I brought you here in advance That's why," said Miss Morn.

"Aren't you afraid that he will silence you? This is his territory. And, and... I don't know why he has improved so fast, but with the fighting power he showed at the God of War Festival, I really want to start an attack. I can't protect you." Ya Xiu said.

"I know. But those who can say "I Have a Dream" must not be bad people. Moreover, as long as you have watched "Revival Documentary of Red Maple Factory", you will understand better."

I haven't seen any of his movies, so I know he uses me as a tool. Ash stared at the eldest lady next to him, gritting his teeth in his heart. She treats me as a tool, and you treat me as a tool. Who did the tool offend?

Although he said that, Ash could only drive the car and carry the eldest lady out of Tulong Port, heading towards the eastern wilderness. Not long after, they saw the sand people's labor camp and the leveled ground in the inner sea.

The main building structure of a large section of the light track has been built and extends further.

"I've already made inquiries, and will go south along the light rail construction site to interview Mr. Busca from the Red Maple Factory at Construction Site No. 3." The reporter said, "After the interview, we will turn west and go to Shuangfeng Town. .”

Shuangfeng Town is a small town near Caohai Muyuan District in Xinyumen, with a total population of about one to two thousand people. To say it is a town, it is better to say that it was gradually developed as a farm product distribution center specially designated by the nearby large ranchers.

A week ago, Taina was at Turon's tavern and said something strange happened near Twin Peaks. After listening to the description, both the reporter and the ranger felt that there might indeed be a clue to "Gray". So, the former decided to go to Yi Xing.

In short, interviews and treasure hunts, reporters and adventurers, cannot be delayed on either side. Miss Taina Moen, who was born into a famous family, is such an elite who knows how to manage time.

"But the Shuangfeng Town is already close to the eastern edge of the Great Grass Sea. It is more than two thousand kilometers away from Tulong."

"so what?"

"If the enemy attacks at this time, it will be difficult for us to get back to Tulong. We may have to face the enemy in the wild."

"Then find a place to hide. Last time we went to the Lotak sector for an interview, we were almost surrounded by rebels. Weren't you the one who took me to hide?" The reporter said: "Besides, the predators broke through the star gate. It’s been almost two months, but there’s still no trace of him, so he must be busy hiding.”

In a sense, Miss Tanah Moon was right.

Although the entire community colony is gearing up, in any case, before the local fleet sets off to the New World, the space mobile force belonging to the New World Defense Command is still limited after all. It is already stretched to even complete basic deployment and control of the nebula around the entire colony. , let alone active reconnaissance in galaxies outside the country's borders.

Of course, the main force of the Thirteenth Fleet in New Port Arthur didn't know that in an unmanned galaxy six jumps away from them, in the dense asteroid belt that formed a natural barrier, a group of enemies were eyeing the colony, like Like a hungry wolf hiding in the bushes and licking its wounds, it has been lurking here for a week.

They are the remaining ships of the famous big pirate, "Heart of the Ghost Tree" Gru, a total of 3 medium-sized armed merchant ships, and Gru's own flagship, the Devil's Banyan. The four ships and more than two thousand pirates remained before the battle.

Hidden here is a secret base of the Gru Pirates. It contains a second-hand orbital maintenance platform that the leader of the group obtained through unknown means, which can perform preliminary repairs on small and medium-sized ships. As long as a ship that is too damaged is not destroyed on the spot, it can still be repaired to the point where it can barely run.

In addition, Captain Gru also told his subordinates that they would wait for two groups of distinguished guests here.

So, after waiting for the third day, a streamlined cruise ship that looked as gorgeous as a work of art appeared in this galaxy. Just like the phantom of a banshee, she walked through the void with light and demonic steps, nimbly plundering the dense asteroid belt, and landed in the sight of the pirates.

The pirates had never seen a ship with such elegant lines, and they were stunned for a while. They immediately stated that only the truly "superior people" who ruled the empire or alliance were qualified to own such a ship.

The pirates were not surprised at all, but instead felt excited. In their view, hasn't it always been tradition for pirates to collude with superiors? In other words, pirates without the support of upper-level relationships will definitely not be able to do much. Even Gong Xiao, the greatest pirate in the galaxy, isn't it said that he once worked as a tea boy for His Majesty the Emperor?

Now, the members of the Ghost Tree Pirate Group have finally confirmed that their boss also has a background, and their morale has increased a lot. The frustration of being beaten on the head by the Earthlings and the dissatisfaction with the leader Gru were all gone.

Black gloves like them can recover quickly as long as they have the support of big people.

It's probably because the Grand Captain took over the mission from the people above that he rashly attacked the Earthlings' fleet, right? Well, since it's the order from someone above, there's nothing we can do about it. the pirates thought.

The guests who arrived were two people wearing black robes that covered their heads and faces. They were dressed very sneakily, but their temperament was very noble and cold. They were completely incompatible with the strange pirates present, and they indeed looked very much like big shots.

Captain Gru respectfully welcomed the two gentlemen into the captain's cabin, and spent the next few days running in and out, acting like a senior coward.

All of this is completely different from the arrogant, brutal and cold-hearted Captain Gru, but the pirates don't think there is any problem with this at all, they just feel that they have once again realized the true meaning of life.

"We have received reinforcements." Captain Gru said to his men: "The master above told us that we can act together when the reinforcements arrive and go to Xinyumen to make a big profit!"

"But, there are only more than two thousand brothers left here!" The subordinates found it difficult to accept.

"Don't worry, this time we will let the reinforcements serve as outposts. We just need to follow and make a fortune." Gru said with a cold face: "The Earthlings' fleet will be restrained by our other friends. The entire New Yumen's low-Earth orbit will be destroyed at will. Let us wreak havoc. The old man also said that after this battle, all the loot will belong to us. Brothers who want to get off the ship will also have legal status."

The pirates were startled, and then their morale exploded, and everyone was eager to try.

To put it bluntly, most pirates just want to earn a living. If they can clear their identity and become rich with the looted loot, that is their ultimate dream.

Then, on February 7, reinforcements finally arrived, but they really surprised the pirates.

A huge flying object sailed silently in the void like a ghost. They didn't notice it until it entered the visible range of the pirates.

Many people immediately exclaimed involuntarily.

That thing is about thirty or forty kilometers long, the size of a battle cruiser or a large aircraft carrier, and it also has the standard spindle shape used by most space ships. However, the pirates don't look like battleships, more like oversized insect chrysalis.

If it is said to be an insect chrysalis, it must be the most ferocious insect chrysalis everyone has ever seen. But all I could see was that the outside of those thick carapace was densely covered with ferocious horns and long tentacles. Among the gaps in the carapace, there were still faint traces of dark purple light.
