Chapter 7: Four Years for Everyone: The Darkest Hour of the Dark Order

Cabrino is a mid-level cadre of the Dark Order, and God knows how he got to be a mid-level cadre! He was just a raider leader a few years ago. At most, he commanded a dozen small raiders to go to other galaxies to do some robbery business.

Raiding is a tradition of the Dark Order, even within the Centaur system. If there is a civilization that is disobedient, then he and others will go to rob it first as a warning. If you are still disobedient, then you will have to send a large army to encircle and suppress it.

Originally the leader of a small pirate ring in the Centaur system, Cabrino was later incorporated into the Dark Order's raiding party. For Cabrino, it had always been his dream to become a structured interstellar pirate. Especially being co-opted by the Dark Order, this is his ultimate dream.

With his back to a big tree, Cabrino was very happy and happy in the first ten years of his incorporation, because he finally had a big backer. Even if he blatantly robs him, does anyone dare to provoke the Dark Order?! Does anyone dare to provoke Lord Thanos?!

Although Cabrino didn't have any promotions in the first ten years of his career in the Dark Order, he was still happy. Until an accident four years ago, he was quickly promoted to commander of a small fleet. A small fleet is not the same as a dozen or so small raiders. A small fleet has a clear division of labor and is equipped with suitable ships at each attack point, so it is impossible for the same number of raiders to defeat the regular fleet.

Originally, this was a good thing, proving that Cabrino's ascension from a straggler to a regular army was a major leap in status! Originally, Cabrino was still very happy, he took over the fleet with his old brothers, and he remembered the proverb in the Centaur galaxy that the Hepolyan ore always shines! This is himself!

But after he actually took office, Cabrino realized that he had thought of everything too simply......

Because in the third month after he took office, a huge rebellion broke out in his own territory. Five planets are in a joint rebellion, and hundreds of warships are galloping through the star field. His small fleet desperately intercepts snipers, but it is always difficult to be an opponent.

In desperation, Cabrino went to the Dark Order headquarters for help, which he didn't want to do. Because if he asks for help, he will prove that he is incompetent, and then he may lose the position he just got in hand. But Cabrino was more afraid that he would be executed by Lord Thanos after losing this territory than losing his position.

So he still asked for help, but the expectation of asking for help was completely different from what he thought. The headquarters of the Dark Order only sent a receipt: "Solve it yourself!"

Solve Nima on my own! If I can solve it on my own, what should I ask for help?! Doesn't Lord Thanos want this star field anymore? There is a lot of Hepoleian ore here, and these ores are very precious!

Cabrino led his fleet to support himself, but he lost the field in two months without backup, and the fleet lost nearly a fifth of its manpower. Originally, he thought that he was going to die, did he want to run away?!

But later, the Dark Order actually sent a message: "It's time to change the location and rest in the A03 star field." ”

Cabrino ???!!!

Is this really the style of the Dark Order? Aren't they very strict? Don't they say that if you make a mistake, you will definitely die? How can you still let yourself continue to be the commander of this small fleet and at the same time lead the team to rest?!

It wasn't until later that Cabrino understood why, and it all started with a big bang. It is said that the guy in charge of heating the entire headquarters at the headquarters made a mistake, which caused the high-temperature furnace to overheat, and finally caused a big explosion, and finally blew up the entire headquarters. Many of the top brass died in the explosion. In order to stabilize people's hearts, the Dark Order blocked the news and quickly promoted a large number of cadres to take over the position, and Cabrino was one of them.

But Cabrino thought to himself that this news was really fake?!Burning a boiler served a pot to the top of the Dark Order?!! if the boiler was so awesome, what kind of boiler would he burn, he would just go and be a stellar igniminator!

But not to mention the true or false news, Cabrino felt that the days began to be sad day by day after being there anyway.

The Dark Elves inexplicably began to attack, and his fleet and old men were sent to the front. Honestly, the battle with the dark elves was not pleasant at all, and unlike those robbery battles, the dark elves were all afraid to die. And their combat effectiveness is also super high.

After losing the remaining half of the fleet, they were finally retreated from the front to rest. Well, at least Cabrino thought he could take a break. But the reality was worse than he had imagined, and in the more than a year that they had been fighting the Dark Elves on the front lines, the Dark Order of Centaur had caught fire in the backyard of the Centaur system.

Because Thanos has always leaned heavily on the civilizations of the Centaur system, when these civilizations found that there was an opportunity, everyone rose up one after another. Some civilizations in the Centaur system have formed a hundred and eighty alliance to overthrow Thanos and the Dark Order.

Fresh from the front line with the Dark Elves, Cabrino had no time to recuperate when he and his brothers were sent on a mission to suppress the rebellion.

Now Cabrino stood in the command compartment of the flagship of the fleet, he was unkempt and his spacesuit was dirty. Even darker than his black skin, he couldn't see the originally beautiful sky blue. And there are obvious signs of wear on the cuffs and ankles of the clothes.

"It's a little cold inside the ship, turn up the temperature a bit. Cabrino gave orders to Leoda, the lieutenant on his ship. Because it's really cold inside the spaceship right now, it feels like it's about -15 degrees Celsius. It's so hot that you can't stretch your hand out.

But Leoda said with a bitter face: "The life support system of our spaceship has been broken, and now it is the limit to be able to keep it at minus 15 degrees Celsius without freezing to death." ”

"Why hasn't it been fixed yet?!" Cabrino was a little annoyed.

"Captain, have you forgotten how long it has been since we had no supplies?! Since the last suppression of the rebellion in the Alpha Star Field, we haven't received supplies for half a year!" Leoda was not only an adjutant, but also managed the logistics of the fleet, and he complained very dissatisfied, "Half a year!"

"If we hadn't found some scrap from the wreckage of those enemy ships to repair the ship, our ship would have been doomed. And even if the life-support system is fixed, we can't spend all our power on heating. We need to leave some more power reserves. It's been three months since the last replenishment of energy. We've been fighting for three months, and we don't have more than half of our energy reserves left. ”

Faced with the complaints of his adjutant, Cabrino could only grit his teeth and said, "Wait a minute, we can go to the next supply point soon." Shouldn't we go and recuperate for a while?" Cabrino glanced at the crew in his cabin, most of whom looked listless. It looks like the morale has been depleted.

Yes, anyone who has been through such a long war and can still maintain the morale of the fleet after the fleet has gone from fifty ships at the beginning to only thirteen ships now. The point is that there are no follow-up additions, no new recruits joining. In the absence of fresh blood, it is already difficult for the fleet to remain untenable.

When it was time for lunch, the logistics staff who put on the food cart came with today's food, pieces of black protein cubes. One piece per person, no more. Now the fleet has been in charge of food control for a month, and if it is not controlled, even this protein block made of insects will not be enough to eat.

Everyone was hungry, but the occasional unprocessed bug corpse could be seen in the disgusting black protein block, which was unappetizing. But even so, everyone still has to eat, otherwise the hunger in the stomach is like a fire burning, which is unbearable.

The only hope that supports them now is that they can get logistical replenishment after arriving at the resting place, then take a shower, change into clean clothes, eat a full meal and get a good night's sleep.

"No, no!" the last hope of the fleet members was shattered.

The fat-headed and big-eared rest point logistics officer shook his pig's head and said, "There are not so many supplies, I can only supply you with three boats of logistics for three months." Where are there so many resources for you to spend now? ”

"But our brother has been fighting for so long, and he is already very fortunate, you see......" Cabrino accompanied the smiling face.

"Fighting? hehe. The pig-headed logistics officer sneered, "You people who are not part of the establishment are also considered to be fighting? My logistics here are to be left to Thanos' descendants." What the hell are you? It's good enough to supply you with three boats. If you're arguing, then you don't have any of them! Fuck me off as soon as you take something!"

Faced with the caustic language of the pig-headed logistics officer, the pirate-born Cabrino seemed to have a fire burning in his heart. Okay! Lao Tzu fought to the death, and so many old brothers died in exchange for such an end. Okay, if you don't give it to me, then I'll take it myself!!

Immediately Cabrino was silent, and he commanded the crew to remove the supplies of the three ships, and gathered all the crossings together for a grand feast. More than half of the three-month's supply was consumed in an instant, and it looked like it was no longer prepared.

And just six hours after the banquet ended, there was a rumbling explosion at the logistics base. Thirteen ships fly the interstellar pirate flag and fly away!
