The Third Planet of the Muse Galaxy¶
As the sun rose, the roar of a huge engine enveloped the largest free trade port on the gamma planet. At the port parking lot, the cabin doors of several merchant ships kept opening, and the crew members who had not slept almost all night filed out of the spacecraft. Vibrant again. Here, perhaps, is the only place where gamma planets seem to come alive.
Compared with the planetary colonists who indulge in wine and beauty and luxurious life, these copper-smelling businessmen seem to be more likely to win the favor of people outside the gamma planet. At least for the Seth people, these guys from the gamma planet are much cuter than the Mars people who only know about battleships and laser cannons.
The whole port was immersed in a relaxed atmosphere, except for the Qiaosheng, which never opened the hatch.
The airport dispatcher glanced at the timetable in front of him, but he didn't care about sorting out the hat that had fallen off a bit. He held the signal stick tightly, and strode towards the Qiaosheng. Send a signal to immediately open the cabin door and the entire crew to leave the airport.
Until the dispatcher walked to the Qiaosheng, the medium-sized merchant ship was still silent, without making a sound, as if the crew of the merchant ship had fallen asleep in the long night and would never wake up again.
"Hey, Dove, it's time for a shift, what are you still doing?"
The dispatcher's communicator clipped to his ear, a colleague's voice reminding him to change shifts, but Dove didn't move, and subconsciously began to notice the unusualness of the Qiaosheng. As a dispatcher who has been working in the free trade port for nearly two decades, his nerves are not sharp, and he has begun to warn him.
As a result, just when Dove turned around and tried to signal to his colleagues, a dazzling white light beam instantly penetrated Dove's chest, and his colleagues not far away could only watch Doffer as if being blown by the wind. The dead leaves rolled up in mid-air, after being briefly thrown up, slowly fell to the ground, making a dull sound, and then a dark red began to slowly flow from under him.
The first person who came to his senses was Jack. The young man who had just worked in the free trade port for two years immediately ran to the guard tower and sounded the alarm. With the piercing alarm sound echoing throughout the trade port, he was stationed in the trade port. The army of the Free Federation quickly assembled. Although they were not even half a soldier in the eyes of the Mars people, these "pampered" young men who were often ridiculed by the Mars people and Sais people were still at the fastest speed. Assemble around the airport.
In the Qiaosheng, Captain Qiaohan and his dozen or so crew members were guarded in a room that was originally used as a storage room. The sultry heat and darkness made these men who have been flying in the universe all year-round breathless. Come on, just when they thought they were going to suffocate to death in this small space, the hatch was suddenly opened, and the crew looked at each other in amazement, none of them forgot the terrible actions of the group of "robbers" last night. . They can shoot through Kerry's chest without changing their faces, and then look at Kerry's body with the same eyes as cosmic garbage, the boy who raised his glass and proclaimed loudly that he was going to return to his hometown and propose to his beloved girl. !
Johann took the first step, and as the captain of the Qiaosheng, he was duty-bound.
The result was beyond everyone's expectations. Those ruthless and cruel guys who broke into their merchant ships like robbers disappeared without leaving a trace.
Captain Johann frowned deeply, unable to determine whether this strange situation was good or bad, and could only order the crew to leave the merchant ship immediately. Whether those guys left or lurked somewhere in the merchant ship, this was not a place to stay for long.
However, what the crew members did not expect was that when the hatch opened, they were greeted by the merciless slaughter of the mother star army!
When Johann was pierced by five laser guns at the same time, his vision became extremely clear. He could even see the crew members who fell to the ground and lost their lives and breath not far away.
After all, what happened...
John's vision slowly blurred, just like the crew members who have followed him for many years and are now on the ground, they will not know that just a few minutes ago, before they walked out of that cabin, there had just been an accident. aspect of the slaughter. Novi led a small group of soldiers from the Golden Empire Space Fleet to capture the Qiaosheng. With an unknown purpose, he attracted the garrison stationed outside the trading port. With the cover of the merchant ship and the weapons in his hands, he slaughtered the first batch of assembled soldiers. ! The soldiers who arrived immediately saw this **** scene, and their breath seemed to be condensed in blood.
Before the soldiers of these gamma planets woke up from the shock, Novi led his subordinates to quickly evacuate from the Qiaosheng, occupied another small merchant ship, and quietly lurked. What happened next was the scene where the crew of the merchant ship Qiaosheng was slaughtered just now...
On the same day, the tragedy that happened in the trading port was reported by the media and spread throughout the entire Muse galaxy. Facing the media’s questioning, Aijia Derich, the current ruler of Planet γ, just smiled lightly, turned and left without leaving a word. The swarming media people were stopped outside by a human wall formed by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
Aijia Derich walked in the garden behind the city lord's mansion, pushed open the door of the conservatory, and saw that Zena Qiao was sitting in the reclining chair. fast asleep.
"Miss Derich..."
"Shh."
Aijia smiled and signaled that the maid could leave first. After all the people in the conservatory disappeared, she walked to Zina Qiao, knelt down slowly, and lay on Zina Qiao's lap. Satisfied smile, stroking Zener Joe's hands that were already thin as dry branches, "Honey, those people left with blood, just like when they came here. However, they will do for themselves in the end. Everything pays the price, just like you and me..."
The sigh gradually disappeared in the rose bushes, leaving no trace.
Just as the small merchant ships that Novi and his subordinates were riding on flew away from the γ planet, Colonel Edgar, who was far away in the Kanon military fortress, was having a headache at the angry roar of Commander Terry and the group of people led by Ailu. Martyr's orphan" is unconscious.
Colonel Edgar never knew that Commander Terry's voice could be compared to a particle cannon, and the young man in his twenties was as stupid as a cleaning robot without an intelligent system.
At this moment, Colonel Edgar missed his adopted son who was cute, smart, handsome and straight, as if he had all the advantages. Extraordinarily missed.
Facing Commander Terry's accusing gaze, Colonel Edgar's answer could only be a shrug of his shoulders. How could he have expected that these young men, who were only approved to participate in the exercise, would dare to smuggle the live ammunition used for the exercise on patrol. ship!
We should be fortunate that these stupid guys only took away some defective products. If Colonel Edgar had foresight and never put the prototype live ammunition produced by Shang Ping into the exercise, I don’t know what kind of chaos will happen now!
With a long sigh, looking at Commander Terry, who was still furious, and Ailu and the others, who bowed their heads but had no regrets, Colonel Edgar made a wise choice to take a step back, without disturbing anyone in the room. Next, he quietly exited the command cabin. Austin and Zuo Jia were waiting outside the cabin, and they both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time when they saw Colonel Edgar.
"Lord Colonel!"
Austin and Zuo Jia gave a standard military salute to Colonel Edgar at the same time. Colonel Edgar jumped on the teleportation bridge first, "Hurry up! I finally got rid of the group of hot-blooded young people who only knew how to shout. Now I don't have to worry about more troubles."
Austin and Zuo Jia looked at each other while suppressing the doubts in their hearts.
If it wasn't for Colonel Edgar's advice, they would never believe that the people of Ailu could load the two live ammunition onto the patrol ship without disturbing the guards at all, and they also happened to encounter the enemy fleet by such a coincidence. .
"Lord Colonel!"
"kindness?"
"Aren't you worried..."
"worry about what?"
Colonel Edjia folded his arms neatly and turned his head to look at Zuo Jia: "Sergeant, there are some things that you can't just look at on the surface and reveal something to the enemy at the right time, maybe you will get unexpected results?"
Zuo Jia blinked, still not understanding, but Austin lowered his head and fell into contemplation.
"In front of an enemy ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times stronger than oneself, blindly showing weakness can only speed up death. On the contrary, revealing something in a timely manner—even if this behavior seems stupid to death, the result is often unexpected. expected."
This is what Shang Ping said to Austin once, after taking Professor Trinider's history class. At that time, Austin only thought Shang Ping's words were a little unreasonable, but now, he overlapped these words with what Colonel Edgar just said. Looking at the tall and straight back of the Colonel in front of him, Austin couldn't help but think of that again. Brunette boy.
Shang Ping, how are you now?
