The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

And Isola himself does not look so ordinary - he is sitting on a chair floating about ten centimeters above the ground, reminiscent of a big bald head with superpowers.Seeing Oregana enter the room, he looked at the equipment in a daze for two seconds, then pressed twice on the armrest of the suspension chair, and the chair immediately changed its shape and lifted him up so that Isola could Stay in a standing position.

Isola's upper body is straight and serious, just like all soldiers who have undergone rigorous training, but his legs are limp and weak, like two redundant parts - he is a disabled person with lower body paralysis, and can only use Only this suspension 'wheelchair' can move freely.

This surprised Oregana. At first, she didn't have a good impression of the Gaia Sanctions Committee—a group of guys who can only cover their heads, stupid and stubborn, and they even forged a chain for themselves. The Gaia Sanctions Committee was isolated from the whole world, fighting that man alone, exuding a seemingly lonely and secretive savior from the back of the world, but in fact it was just self-satisfaction.

This impression lasted until they threatened the Local Circulation with naval guns. After that, not only did this feeling not fade away, but they were also labeled as arrogant, reckless, and arrogant.

But after actually meeting the officers of the Gaia Fleet, this feeling is completely different from the previous impression——

Isola is obviously a rigorous and wise soldier, and he is extremely strong, with the breath of blood and fire that can only be found after returning from the battlefield several times.In this respect, he was no different from the reliable generals he knew well.For such a person, it is hard to imagine that he would issue such a stupid order that could destroy everything. Maybe something went wrong on his battleship at that time. This may be the reason why Isola seemed a little flustered in the communication at that time. .

I really don't understand...

Oregana walked over and stretched out her right hand:

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Isola."

"Your Excellency, Legion Commander... Nice to meet you."

After the handshake, there was only a cold and hard feeling in the palm. This was not a handshake to express no malice at all, but just a simple courtesy... To actually come here wearing mechanical armor, the integration department is still angry.

The member of the Local Circulation, the girl with black animal ears, had already told herself about the integration department according to the instructions above.Her intuition told herself that she wasn't lying, which meant that the idiot captain had offended an unbelievably huge monster.

Isola sighed in his heart. He had replaced the stupid captain and asked the adjutant to investigate the origin of this person, but what he had done was like a colonial satellite thrown into the atmosphere and could not be taken back.The initial trust has been destroyed, and there is no way to blame the other party for wearing mechanical armor to talk is unreasonable behavior-after all, there is nothing wrong with taking a full defensive posture against a force that threatened itself with guns before.

I can only work hard to repair this rift in the next period of time.

But fortunately, Harlock may have provoked more - there was a real exchange of fire between the pirate ship and the ship of Her Excellency Oregana's Legion, and those wreckages were left over from that battle, and after that battleship It took quite a while to get it back to sailable condition...and then, emmm...

I thought it was just a 1400mm gun installed on the ship as a special bow gun, but it turned out...

That's a conventional main gun, what the hell!Five groups can be installed at a time, a total of ten main turrets, and a total of twenty 1400mm large pipes!This battleship is indeed a special ship for special characters, but there is no special decoration for the artillery.

Twenty 1400 sticks of special mothers on a ship seem to be the norm for them...

This panda has nothing to do with the Isolati Tornado-class battlecruiser (32 root 1400). (far eye)

"I would like to express my apologies to you here again, and we will give you a satisfactory explanation in the near future."

"We are willing to believe that it was an accident, Mr. Isola. You can resolve this matter in the way you think is appropriate. We value our future cooperation more than pursuing that stupid accident seriously." Oregana smiled kindly, which made Isola show a surprised expression, "Let's get down to business."

Oregana didn't care about this—to be honest, in the beginning, she would occasionally get a little swollen because of the "sand sculpture barbarians attacking our army", until she went to the zoo of the Atlantic Federation to pet lynx during a certain vacation, but Lynx recognizes strangers, and when they see strangers enter their territory, they come up with a paw...

Suddenly woke up.

The initial contact agreement is hostile, and it may be like this in many cases...Because of poor thinking and unequal intelligence, I feel scared, and feel that if I don't do it first, I will be finished.If you get angry because of this claw and fight back when you go up, it will definitely lead to a terrible ending that neither side wants to see, but if you take this claw and treat it gently, you can become a friendly floating lotus seed in the future.

The premise is that the claw can be easily touched by itself, and if it does not suffer from any fatal infectious disease... Nascatron's brother Hong is equivalent to being infected with mad dragon disease...

If it doesn't involve the dark worm, if you touch the little guy who is new to hostility, you will touch it. As long as it doesn't cause any harm, there is no need to get angry.This kind of generosity can also become a bonus item for convincing the other party in subsequent exchanges, which is much better than hammering the other party in anger and making the other party tremble in fear——Mario Puzo once said that without thinking Letting go of anger is the most dangerous form of self-will.Oregana deeply agrees with this.

However, you must not do nothing. If you do nothing, the other party will misunderstand that this matter is not serious at all, and then there may be a second or third accident afterwards.Mr. Mario once also said that a soft heart without boundaries will only make the other party gain an inch; kindness without principle will only make the other party do whatever they want.

Where is the 'speed' in it? Oregana has not fully grasped it, and is still groping.That's why she chose to meet Isola in power armor instead of a diplomatic dress.

The colonel and the almost fully armed legion commander sat on both sides of the table, sitting on a levitating variable wheelchair that used strange technology. The panda named Berry stood behind Oregana as an adjutant, and Liu Lizi When he was away, he would fight for the head of the legion.Different from the chubby mascot in Oregana's impression, this child is surprisingly expressive.

While Isola was still thinking about how to speak, Oregana had naturally entered the state:

"Let's not talk about gossip - as you can see, we are dismantling the space shock warheads Harlock has placed all over the universe."

Isola's throat moved up and down, and he asked softly:

"He...how many pieces has he installed? I guess about ten pieces?"

After all, every time Harlock appears, the Gaia fleet will desperately go to meet him, defeating him every time.There must have been some leaks over the years, but the number should not be too many.

As for the installed bomb, the Gaia Sanctions Committee has no way to find it—because there is no way to find it.Although it is known that Harlock wants to untie the Knot of Time, no one knows exactly where the Knot of Time is. The weak point of the world, the abyss connecting the subspace, the intersection of time and space... How can ordinary people do this kind of thing? May know?Only the Nibelungen who proposed this theory could have known this.

It's great that these people from different worlds have a way to solve these hidden dangers.

Oregana shook her head expressionlessly, and told the somewhat tragic truth:

"We have removed 31 of them."

"?!"

"There are six more that have been released, but they haven't been dug up yet. He is too good at hiding."

37? !And only possibly more? !So what have we been busy with all these years?What are those thousands of companions who died bravely for?In the end, all the efforts in the past are actually meaningless at all?

Isola couldn't help clenching her teeth.

The Gaia Sanctions Committee has always shouldered that terrible secret and silently protected the world behind it. Countless people have shed their blood for the continuation of the universe, turning into light in the artillery fire. Everyone believes that their sacrifices will become tomorrow's cornerstone of peace.Everyone in the Gaia Sanctions Committee has sins, which are the sins inherited from the Galactic Empire. Because of their own negligence, more than 5000 billion people in the universe have fallen into extremely dangerous crimes of dereliction of duty.

These sinful lives are meaningless, but we all know that it can be exchanged for more-heroic, resolute death, the smallest sacrifice of each person can be used to redeem the deadly death of the ancestors. crime of malfeasance.

Fight bravely, chase Harlock like a hound, and finally completely wipe out this undead who should have died a century ago. Don't be afraid of sacrifice. This is the responsibility and destiny of everyone born in the Gaia Sanctions Committee.The struggle of all will hasten the moment - the great and inevitable moment - when Harlock is dead, the evil plan is finally undone, the sins of the Galactic Empire are cleansed, and the defenders of the solar system will finally Get redemption, leave the darkness, and walk into the light again.

The results of it?

People's sacrifices were more humble than expected, Harlock was not hindered, and his plan was still proceeding steadily without anyone knowing.

He very much hoped that what the alien in front of him said was not true, but Isola couldn't doubt it, because-her troops were indeed right in front of him, digging out a time-space shock warhead hidden by Harlock , this is something that the Gaia Sanction Committee has failed to do until now.The other party has enough evidence to prove her words. Isola believes that if she raises doubts now, Oregana will immediately order the troops to transport all the warheads to her so that she can count them clearly. Is it that many? pieces.

A chill spread along his spine to the whole body, and even his legs, which had been unconscious for several years and whose muscles were gradually shrinking, felt the chill go down to the bone.It wasn't just Isola who was shaken, even the shoulders of the two guards beside him began to tremble slightly.

This may be too cruel for them, but from the perspective of others... it seems that they can only sigh.

There was a problem with the estimation of the enemy's combat power, and the attack frequency of the opponent was greatly underestimated. The result was like this... Maybe in Hallock's view, the obstacle of the Gaia Sanctions Committee is simply insignificant.

The expressionless expression on Oregana's face loosened slightly, and she said:

"How much do you know about what Harlock is planning? Why does he want to destroy the world?"

This is the question she has always wanted to know.

At the very beginning, Tartarus got involved in this matter only because of Harlock's random bagging. After an accidental investigation, it was found that the structure of the universe here was not right, and the bags that Harlock's down could blow up the entire universe.But why he would do this is completely unknown.Without knowing his motives, it's hard to gauge how he moves, and it's too difficult to know how his team operates, which is too bad for finding weaknesses.

And it has been fighting Harlock for a long time, and the Gaia Sanctions Committee, which seems to have a lot of little secrets, may know it.

"He didn't want to destroy the world," Isola slowly shook his head with a painful expression on his face, "but...to restart the entire universe, but for everyone else, this is not too different from destroying the world far. So we've been trying to stop him, but..."

Seeing that this guy seemed to be entering a bad state of self-loathing again, Oregana quickly interrupted him and asked:

"Wait, you said his purpose is to restart? What do you mean?"

Isola blinked hard, he began to realize that his mental state was not right, he took a few deep breaths and tried to get himself back to normal.When he raised his head again, he had already returned to the rigorous and serious soldier image before.This self-adjustment ability made Oregana greatly admired——

In this respect, Isola's strength is much stronger than some decisive weapon pilots!

"According to the theory of the Nibelungians, when the Knot of Time is untied, the universe will return to the state of singularity, and then start to evolve again." He paused, and continued, "What Harlock wants to carry out is this process. .”

This is completely different from what Oregana expected.

Although for ordinary people, there is no difference, because everyone will die from the previous 'destruction', and they will not feel the 'rebirth' afterward.What's more, even if it is "rebirth", the evolution of the universe cannot be exactly the same as it is now, and the difference on this scale is not only caused by a big butterfly in the Kanto region flapping its wings twice, which caused a huge difference in Alola. It's as simple as a storm.

The slight difference in the evolution of the universe does not mean whether a certain person will be born in the end, but is more exaggerated-whether the star cluster will still be at this level by then.

Or……

Can this kind of evolution achieve the reincarnation of the deviation value created by heaven!

Come to think of it!Harlock!The enlightened are eternally happy! ! (fog)

Oops, I always feel that there is an immortal goblin looking at me somewhere with the expression of wanting to play CS on the space station. (nonsense)

Oregana frowned in confusion:

"Then why did he do it? Does he have any regrets?"

For example, what irreversible things have been done in the past, and you want to take regret medicine... It is the kind of gamble with such a one-in-a-billion possibility to change reality and change the awareness and regret of this world.This thing sounds cool, but don't you think it's selfish to let more than 5000 billion people who have nothing to do with your ambitions accompany you to explode?

Isola obviously knew about this question, but instead of answering immediately, he looked at the guard next to him.

The indicator light on the guard's mask changed from red to blue. Seeing this change, Isola opened his mouth and said:

"... Your Excellency Chairman, may I say something?"

"?"

Before Oregana could react, she heard an old and hoarse voice from the guard's head. The voice made people feel like Mr. Okita who was seriously ill at that time——

【I give you this right, tell me, Isola, we should trust her. 】

Is it Ah Wei? !

No... isn't that right? !Your adjutant of the Gaia Sanctions Committee, do you still need a telephone function?What kind of mysterious operation is this? !

Under Oregana's stunned eyes, Isola got the permission from the rear through the adjutant's phone call, and began to tell the secret that the Gaia Sanctions Committee had buried for more than a century:

"Then let me tell you, Your Excellency, Legion Commander, this is a bit of a long story." He pushed his glasses, took a deep breath, let it out slowly, and then lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by others He said, "Harlock, I want to restore the earth."

"Restore the Earth?"

"That's right, it all started with the 'Battle of Homecoming' a hundred years ago..."

At that time, the battle between the two sides revolved around the home of mankind - the solar system.At that time, the solar system was still under the control of the Galactic Empire, and the colonies wanted to seize the solar system and use the Jupiter cannon to bombard the Galactic Empire's rear stronghold.The Jupiter cannon was one of the super weapons of the Galactic Empire at that time. It used the natural gravity of Jupiter to provide space-distorting energy, and projected unimaginable energy bombardment at a fixed target point in light-year units to strike a fixed space. The fortress is surprisingly strong.

"The giant Jupiter cannon has the terrifying power to inflict severe damage on a terrestrial planet with one shot, and to destroy a celestial body the size of the moon just by stroking it." Isola opened the star map and outlined a series of nearby solar systems. Galaxies "If the colonies seize the solar system, all these galaxies are within the strike range. The Galactic Empire cannot allow this to happen, so they assembled the fleet and planned to have a decisive battle between the solar system and the colony fleet."

"The colony dispatched four Death Shadow-class warships?"

"That's right." Isola nodded. "Although the Death Shadow-class warships are strong, they are still unable to turn the tide given their absolute numerical advantage."

"We think so."

Although the Death Shadow class is strong, it is not invincible - even if a battleship has the combat power of one fleet of the opponent, what if the opponent has more than one fleet, ten fleets?Then don't they still have to be beaten?At that time, the number of fleets of the Galactic Empire was simply overwhelming.

"In the beginning, the colonies relied on a quick attack to capture most of the facilities in the solar system and controlled several planets including Earth. But within a few hours, reinforcements from the Imperial Fleet arrived on the battlefield and slowly pushed the front line back. .Around a series of strongholds, large and small battles took place again and again. Both sides have their own winners and losers, but overall, the Galactic Empire has an absolute advantage."

He paused for a few seconds, pointing to the third planet in the solar system—

"Then here, the situation changed decisively. The four Shadow of Death-class ships and the remaining fleet of the colony gathered at Lagrange Point 2 to face the Imperial fleet, and made a gesture of defending the earth to the death."

"Why is that?" Oregana asked, "Do they have a deep affection for Earth?"

"Of course it is deep. Everyone has very deep feelings for the earth...but because of the despair of losing the battle and the fear of the imperial fleet's means, they choose to stick to the earth and never take a step back."

"...What did the Imperial Fleet do before?"

"When they were on the Mars front, in order to destroy the ground defense force and destroy the enemy's confidence, they used heavy firepower to blow up the entire territory of Mars after defeating the orbital fleet. The situation is extremely miserable... Looking at it now, after losing the fleet The troops trapped on the surface have no threat at all, and the right choice is to leave it alone and concentrate on the universe." Isola sighed deeply, and said, "But at that time, everyone went crazy. "

"So the colonies think that the imperial fleet will do the same to Earth?"

"That's right...it's ridiculous, right?" Isola's expression became ugly. "Human beings are the children born of the earth, how could they choose to kill the earth? That's the holy land of human beings..."

Oregana simply didn't know what to say——
