Chapter 252: Is it a trap?
The Star Alliance's Anlasol defense line was at war, and the firepower of the Zerg, the Weilan Empire Expeditionary Force, and the Star Alliance Coalition was concentrated together, filling the sky with gunsmoke.
The Covenant border defense line is at risk, and the security alert level has been repeatedly raised.
From time to time, the Zerg army will harass and attack, which makes it difficult to guard against it.
The refugee problem caused by the border war alone has already left the Covenant Council in a state of distress, and there are not many countries and regions willing to accept refugees on a large scale, and there are many restrictions on the areas that are willing to accept refugees.
This is a well-known thing, but what Betty didn't expect was that someone would hit Burgess with the idea of rehousing refugees, which was really unexpected and too surprising.
"What did you say?"
Betty thought she might have misheard.
The consul of Burgess looked at Betty's sad expression, and the wrinkles on his face deepened as if they were sculpted, and repeated the previous words: "The parliament has issued several circulars and letters, expressing the hope that we will be able to join the refugee resettlement program. β
"Are they crazy?" Betty instinctively felt that if she could make such a request, there must be something wrong with the brain of the person in charge of the Star Alliance Council.
"Just say no. Betty couldn't figure out why the Archon wanted her to report on this, "The Burgess Administration-related Night Yama Explorers are not involved in the management, and this is the responsibility of the Ruling Department. β
Betty never asked Burgess about administration, it wasn't her duty, and more importantly, she didn't know how to manage the planet.
Betty didn't feel frightened in her heart, could it be that Yan An had to be distracted from managing the planet when he was in Burgess, and the head of the group needed to be responsible for such a wide range?
Even with a cold flame on her face, Betty's heart was already eager to turn around and quit immediately.
The management team was already tired and responsible, and Mo Ye didn't tell her that even Burgess's planetary administration needed her to take care of it.
"We have refused, and we have repeatedly expressed Burgess's attitude with direct euphemism, but the parliamentary side has always been unwilling to give up lobbying and continue to put pressure on us.
After the war broke out in the defense area of Allasol, unrelated organizations including the Star Covenant Refugee Agency, the Star Alliance Humanitarian Coordination Office, Rescue Without Borders, and the Star Alliance Cross Immigration Agency continued to send resettlement requests to Burgess, or invitations to participate in rescue and transfer operations......"
If you can refuse this kind of thing once, twice, or three times, but you will not participate in public opinion for four, five, six, or seven times, and it will be difficult not to be criticized in terms of reputation.
"Several planetary regions involved in refugee rescue operations have announced that they will not continue to trade with Burgess, which has refused to resettle refugees, and there have been many critical reports from Starnet...... We have been featured in two major humanitarian stories in a row. This is said very implicitly, in fact, to tell Betty that Burgess has been hung up as a negative textbook.
Betty just wanted to hehe, with a cold face, and a small flame burning in her eyes, "Pressure, public opinion guidance?"
"Yes, Lord Betty. The archon swallowed nervously, giving the illusion that the air around him had become hot and oppressive.
The consul was also forced to have no choice, he couldn't contact Yan An, although Burgess was under the management of the ruling department, but this involved the matter of the Night Yama Regiment, it was impossible to be ignorant at all.
Betty's fiery eyes seemed to have flames rising, and various thoughts quickly flashed through her mind, and she asked, "What about you, what do you think of the ruling department?"
"Putting aside public opinion and pressure from all sides, I personally and the vast majority of the managers in the ruling department believe that it is not suitable for Burgess to open up the resettlement of refugees for the time being. β
That was an afterthought, and Betty waited for the Archon to continue.
"But we can participate in the rescue and transfer of refugees, and the refugees do not need to land in Burgess, but can send a rescue fleet to take care of the relevant rescue and transfer transportation, so that we can also fulfill the obligation of humanitarian relief." β
"You already have a full plan?"
"Yes. β
Betty breathed a sigh of relief, it was great to have a plan that didn't have to worry about her.
"This is a matter of administrative diplomacy for Burges, and I believe that the ruling department will do its part. β
The consuls also breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't want the people of the Night Yama Explorers to get too involved in the administration of the planet.
How many independent planets have been played to death in the end because of private ownership, and a good prosperous planet has been played into a private vacation back garden, and the conditions are so good.
Now everyone is happy.
"In the future, I will convene the military department and the air transport department to discuss. β
Betty nodded, stopping the Archon as he was about to leave, "You said the council has been pressuring us?"
"Yes. β
"Okay, I see, this matter will be dealt with by the Yama Temple. β
The archon, who had deliberately slowed down, was finally satisfied and strode away.
Betty stood on the beach of the Yama Temple, looking at the sea for a long time.
Until now, the Covenant Council has not given up on any trouble that can find the Night Yama Explorers.
"Bothering the council?"
Betty turned her head to look at Luo Haifeng, who had jumped from the black mecha.
"I don't understand why the council is still biting the night Yama at this time. β
"They are biting the ink and ink, probably because they don't have enough trouble and are too idle. β
The resettlement of refugees from the border planet is one of the biggest headaches for the council after the start of the war, and if you don't do it well, you will be kidnapped by public opinion.
According to the general law of the Star Alliance, Burgess does not belong to any country at all, so naturally he does not need to obey the arrangements of any national government, from a legal point of view, Burgess has a legitimate reason and freedom to refuse any unreasonable demands put forward by the parliament, but public opinion is not up to the law.
"Don't pay too much attention to the trend of public opinion, we are explorers, not volunteers or charitable organizations. β
Betty didn't speak, her expression still condensed.
"It's time for you to go and get some rest. β
After Mo Ye left with Yan An, Betty had been spinning continuously, and she had to fall before the Zerg fell.
Betty turned to Second Brother Luo and said, "Have you seen Luo Yuning's message?"
"What message?" Second Brother Luo immediately had a bad premonition.
"She and 11 boarded the warship of the reinforcement unit of the defense area of the Amlasol defense area and went to the front battlefield, the area where the vanguard fleet was lost. β
Second Brother Luo was stunned, his face changed slightly, and finally he could only sigh helplessly, shrug his shoulders and smile bitterly, "I expected." β
Betty shook her head and smiled, "As expected. β
"If it's really life-threatening, 11 will definitely pull her desperate to run for her life, don't worry about this. β
This is the case, one is indomitable and fears that the world will not be chaotic, and the other is greedy for life and afraid of death.
"The expansion speed of the ring aperture band is too fast, and the influx of Zerg armies is increasing day by day, and if we can't find an effective way to take the initiative, the Star Alliance will be in danger. β
......
Weilan Empire,
Mo Ye and Yan An sat opposite each other, and the news that had just come from Burgess could not make people feel happy and relaxed at all.
The reconnaissance fleet was completely annihilated, the Allasol defense area and the Zerg took the initiative to attack head-on, the vanguard fleet lost contact, and the follow-up reinforcements were on the way, Luo Yuning and 11 went to the dangerous and unknown front line with the army, and the Star Alliance parties used the refugee resettlement issue to exert pressure......
There is no good news, and the ability to cause depression is one and the same.
The two heads of the regiment glanced at each other and sighed together.
"The council really won't let go of any opportunity, and will bite you to death. β
Mo Ye shook her head, she didn't think it was just because of her, "It's just profit-driven." β
Yan An helped the frame of the glass, and placed his legs on the coffee table with his legs folded, "How to deal with it?"
Mo Ye raised his eyes, the tail of his right eyebrow rose slightly and did not speak, but the subtle expression was already very obvious, "Hasn't it been handed over to Betty to deal with?"
It's very easy to shake off the shopkeeper, and I don't plan to worry about these chores at all.
Mo Ye didn't think that the council would have much energy to continue to target Burgess, as the scale of the war expanded, not strictly speaking, this was already an unstoppable situation, and the pressure on the Covenant Council would increase.
Even if he didn't deliberately sense the fluctuation of mental power, Mo Ye could easily read Yan An's eyes at this time, and it was clearly "Are you sure, the Mo Mo I know can't be so naΓ―ve and stupid!"
"You have said that interests, after the war starts, there will only be more conflicts of interest, the parliament's demand for rights and interests will only be greater, and there is no reason why they don't want to take a bite of the mouth-watering cake of Burgess, even if they may be hit by their teeth. β
It's not that I don't want to, but I keep trying to bite but I haven't found a suitable place for my mouth.
Mo Ye was extremely impressed that there were still people in the council who could spare their energy to worry about Burgess in the crisis of the Weilan Empire and the Zerg's attack, and he was amazing.
Mo Ye shook her head and put this matter behind her, she couldn't worry about it, she believed that Betty could handle it, at least in the Vitanlia Free Federation, unless the Zerg broke through the border defense, Burgess would not be in much danger.
Mo Ye rubbed the ring lines, closed his eyes and rested.
Compared with the Zerg threat on the border of the Star Alliance, what is more dangerous in the territory of the Weilan Empire is the starless sky storm that appears from time to time, the black crack appears without warning, and it is impossible to resist, and the only one that Mo Ye knows so far is the only one that has successfully escaped.
Swallow it in, spit it out, this is similar to a black hole, and from time to time the black crack that easily devoured the fleet flashed in Mo Ye's mind.
Recalling the picture carefully, it is not accurate to say that it is a crack, and it is more appropriate to say that it is a black line.
It's like a gratuitous stroke on a piece of paper, covering all the colors that originally existed.
As soon as Mo Ye closed his eyes, the black lines would appear unexpectedly, and they could pop up almost at any time except when he was meditating.
Mo Ye rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, "Xiao Qi, do you have any clues?"
Xiao Qi responded to Mo Ye after a while, his voice was a little regretful and annoyed, "Master, there's no need." β
Can't you find out where the starship belongs to the lost?
Do you want to comfort me, Mo Ye was about to speak when he heard Xiao Qi say, "Master, they found you." β
Mo Ye opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Qi flying in front of him, "The survivor of the escape pod?"
Xiao Qi nodded, his chagrin was beyond words, it didn't have time to find the other party, and the person came to the door by himself, this feeling was really a little frustrated and helpless, and the little seven children who had lost the value of their brains nodded a little depressedly, "There is an anonymous email that sent a coordinate, and there is a double encrypted cipherword, which is translated into the lingua franca of the Star Alliance after decoding, which probably means asking for help." β
Could it be that the anonymous email from before was also sent from the escape pod?
"How do you know who they are?"
"I checked all the information, and in addition to the coordinates and distress signals, there was also the ship code in the anonymous email, which has been verified. β
Xiao Qi's mood was complicated, happy and annoyed.
Xiao Qi then played the decoded distress signal, the original sound was a rhythmless noise, and after Xiao Qi decoded and recombined, it became an inorganic mechanical sound.
In a concise and concise way, just two words "help"
"You translated?"
Xiao Qi nodded.
"Good. β
"Master, are we going, and when are we going to set sail?"
"Nothing but coordinates and distress signals?"
This is too crude and could be dismissed as spam or fraud.
Mo Ye even had some doubts in her heart if this could be a conspiracy to lead her past.
"Nothing else, but I've already investigated the coordinates, which are in the territory of the Weilan Empire near the border battlefield, and according to the information provided by the current rebels, that area is in the midst of war. β
Xiao Qi summoned out the star map and pointed out the coordinates marker, "Master, look, the border in this area was originally close to many subject countries, and the interstellar jump points were also relatively dense, and the small countries and subject countries around the Weilan Empire were captured, and there were still some remnants of the resistance army, and there were constant wars. β
Mo Ye just wanted to open his mouth to ask Xiao Qi and continued, "The anonymous email mentioned the location of the incident, which is in this border war-torn area. β
didn't mention what kind of danger he encountered, and went straight to her, which was full of weirdness.
"Master, should I go or not?"
Go, why not.
This is the only clue about the black crack, even if it is really a trap and a conspiracy, Mo Ye has to look at it to feel at ease.
"Master, the identity of the person who came is unknown, there is a high probability that there is a high risk, do you really want to go?"
Xiao Qi quickly listed a data table, and the probability of various dangers that may occur was made into a table, which was clear at a glance, and the capitalized bold ones could be traps.
If this is a trap, the way to lure the enemy is too casual and crude.
The next day, Yan An slept and woke up to find that the Egg Cake's sailing course had taken a big turn and the direction had completely changed.
What is the situation?
Was it attacked by hackers or did an unknown shift occur, the ghost of the Zerg?
Yan An staged countless possible crises in his heart, and then looked at Mo Ye, who was sitting at the dining table eating xiaolongbao with a sleepy face, his heart fell back from his throat, but his doubts were still unsolved.
"The route has changed, you know?"
"Well, I'll change it. β
