MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 67
August 9, 1128, Galactic Calendar
The largest free trade port on the third planet γ of the Muse galaxy is as busy as ever. With the ground dispatcher waving the signal stick, merchant ships of different models and nationalities continued to take off and land at the port. Although the pressure from the alien invaders was still there during this time, the city federation was also turbulent in the power class due to the serious illness of Zena Joe and the hot methods of Aijia Derich, but it did not hinder the free city. The Commonwealth continued a centuries-old trade boom.
Yes, these γ-stars, who are called blood-sucking worms by the Mars people and Seth people, who are immersed in money and beauty every day, never shy away from the flow in their blood, as if they were born with the supremacy of interests and the desire for pleasure. They don't think it's a hard thing to talk about, they're pretty proud of it.
"Who cares whether the city lord is a man or a woman, his own person or an enemy, as long as I can make money! What does it matter if it's the group of guys who are now guarding outside the galaxy? Hey, I heard They are all beauties!"
Obviously, this group of γ-star people who have been immersed in the traditional education of businessmen for a long time, never have the words betrayal and patriotism in their bones. If Greta South and her followers, who founded the Federation of Free Cities, knew that the country they created by betraying their partners turned out to be like this, how would they feel? Perhaps, will sigh the consequences of the initial betrayal?
Nobody will know.
Perhaps it is because of this terrible ideology that after the coup d'état that seized power, Aija Derich has been able to survive to this day. Even Martin, the chief executive of Mars who authorized her to do so, widened his eyes in disbelief after receiving the report from the secretary.
This should not be a country! It's just a mess of sand! Martin can even assert that if David Soth, no, maybe he doesn't need David, even the cosmic fleet under Marshal Heru of the Republic of Seth can easily destroy this planet. Because this is a planet without belief, without any persistence and admirable things!
It was already evening, and the noisy engine sound finally subsided, and the number of merchant ships gradually decreased, or stopped at the port, waiting for the cargo to be loaded and set sail tomorrow.
A free city federal second-class cargo ship "Qiao Sheng" entered when the port dispatcher was changing shifts. This merchant ship was loaded with fine wine and unique jewels and jade from the star of the Republic of Seth, and landed on the mother star, which has not returned for three years. . There are sixteen crew members on board, including Captain Johann, these men who have traveled in space for a long time, although they have been informed that the road to the inner city from the port has been closed, and they need to stay on the Johanson until tomorrow morning, soon. The excitement of returning home and the banknotes that the goods on board can bring immediately make them not feel dissatisfied or angry at all. Captain John John even ordered to start the computerized automatic operation program of the cargo ship, and there was absolutely no need for any crew members to stay in the operation cabin. These men who had nothing to do but could not sleep, simply sat together and spent the whole night. Passed on playing star chess and electronic simulation games. The whole cargo ship was wrapped in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. The captain took out two bottles of fine wine generously. As the crew shouted long live, the golden wine flowed into the transparent glass, and in the mellow aroma of alcohol, the man started. Talk about money, current affairs, and women.
A young man who just turned twenty-two has spent three birthdays on this cargo ship. He raised his glass and announced loudly that he would marry his fiancée as soon as he got the reward that belonged to him! Suddenly, there was a whistle and strange sound all around.
However, this joyous atmosphere was interrupted by a sudden darkness. As all the light sources in the cargo ship were cut off in an instant, all the crew members fell into silence.
"Damn, what's going on?!"
"Could it be the group of guys outside playing a prank?"
Captain John John lit the emergency light, and his more than ten years of experience made him realize the unusualness of this incident at the first time. Even though he kept persuading himself in his heart that this was the port of the Free City Federation and they were very safe, the next development of the matter made his luck vanish.
The closed door of the cabin suddenly opened, followed by the bright lights in the room, and a group of strangers broke in. No, maybe it shouldn't be said that they were intruding. .
Johnny grabbed a young man who was impulsive and wanted to rush to question him, his eyes fixed on the man at the head, he was an incredibly handsome man, with pale hair and eyes, different from anyone he had ever seen. Kind of, even on the planet Assama, which is famous for its beauty, I have never seen such a person.
This made Johann suddenly have a very absurd, but terrifying thought that made him sweat.
"Good night, gentlemen."
Novi stepped forward, glanced at the sixteen crew members present, and finally showed a very gentle and decent smile to the serious-looking Captain John, "Dear Captain, I need your ship."
In a positive tone, without the slightest doubt, John was as angry as the boys behind him. In the angered cabin, he gritted his teeth against Novi and the group of people behind him, but there was nothing they could do, because the The laser gun has already aimed the muzzle at itself...
Outside the Qiaosheng, the dispatcher checked the time and reconfirmed that the cargo ships parked in the port were no different from the merchant ships. They sent a safety signal to the command tower, and then boarded the land vehicle and left the parking lot.
In an instant, the lights around the airport went out at the same time, and everything fell into darkness.
It was already fifteen minutes later when Aijia Derich in the City Lord's Mansion noticed that Novi and his subordinates were missing.
Golden Empire Space Fleet
Soran Edrich received a report from the cruise fleet in the command cabin of the flagship. Thirty minutes ago, they had a head-on conflict with the cruise fleet from the Kanon military fortress. It was very strange. The unfamiliar soldiers did not turn around and run away as before, or rushed to the road of death. They just moved the battleship towards them at a very slow speed, and then stopped at a certain point. From one of the battleships , fired a few strange-looking solid shells.
Yes, physical cannonballs! It is neither a laser bullet nor a particle bullet, but a solid bullet that has long been discarded and crushed by time!
The soldiers of the Golden Empire saw this incredible scene through the screen. The commander of the main ship of the cruise fleet looked at each other with everyone in front of the console. What happened? Are these people crazy? Even if they think about it, they can't figure it out!
What surprised these soldiers even more was that these physical bombs like cosmic garbage actually hit the nearest peripheral cruise ship without being accurately positioned, and a burst of fireworks was silent. Lighting up the dark space, when these imperial soldiers were stunned and finally remembered to fight back, the patrol ship from the Kanon military fortress had already turned around and returned.
