Gaiden 5:2 down
Soon after, the ambulance team arrived with the garrison, and the chief of staff almost cursed him impatiently, but fortunately the kind admiral persuaded her, and the medical soldiers were able to fulfill their responsibilities immediately. Therefore, when Rebel returned, the wound had been thoroughly healed and forcibly infused with about a thousand milliliters of artificial blood, and the sky looked much better.
"Sky!"
Rebel walked towards the sky. Without waiting for her to propose, the soldiers of the Astral Army Garrison around the sky automatically made way for the princess.
"Ah, Rebel! You okay? β
Seeing Rebel's figure through the slit in the crowd, the sky showed a normal smile, but his face was very pale at this time.
"You idiot! Before you care about others, take care of yourself! β
Rebel immediately scolded this fellow Admiral of the Astral Army, and the people around her expressed incomprehensible surprise at this rude conversation of the noble Empress Xialan. But ignoring these things, Rebel crouched down beside the sky and asked with a worried expression, "How's it going?" Is the injury serious? Do I need to be taken to the infirmary right away?
"Rest assured, Your Highness. The adult's injuries are not serious, and the ambulance team has already dealt with them for the adults just now. β
Answering in the place of Sky was its Chief of Staff, Aria, who had just inquired about the situation from the doctor. Then, Arya helped the chief to stand up, but there seemed to be an unknown sense of confrontation in her movements, so Rebel looked at the sky as if asking, and in the face of this piercing gaze, the sky only helplessly showed a wry smile of "That's it".
"Really...... That's good. β
Raibel said lightly, and then she also stood up, glancing at Ariyah without any expression. This time, many people noticed this, and they all looked nervously at these two women whose relationship did not seem to be very friendly. If Sabado was here, there would have been a few more wounds on Sky's body at the end, right? But only this time, the doom of the sky did not follow.
"By the way, Rebel, what about the assassin?" Sensing this dangerous atmosphere, the startled party quickly changed the topic.
"Here, Admiral. It's a beautiful lady! β
A rough voice came from the side, and when he heard this, the sky turned his head in surprise,
"Ferlet! You're here too? β
"Hmm. However, if this young lady hadn't happened to bump into me, I didn't know that the Admiral would have met such an enthusiastic supporter! A very hateful smile appeared on Ferlet's face, and Sky couldn't help but feel that this guy was becoming more and more similar to that Sabado. But in the current situation, he can only make compromises, "Please, don't fall into the well again...... Woo! As if pulling the wound, he snorted softly and shook his body.
"My lord, please be careful!"
Aria, who had been preoccupied with the sky, quickly helped him and glared at Ferlet, warning him not to irritate the injured patient any more. Glancing at him dangerously, Ferit realized that if he continued, it would not be the Admiral who would be injured later. So, he coughed lightly and changed the subject.
"Hmm...... That's all for the joke. Admiral, what is this guy going to do? β
As she spoke, Ferlett pushed the tightly bound prisoner behind her out, and then stepped aside with a look of obvious readiness to watch the show. And with a very dissatisfied helplessness, the sky quickly glanced at the burly man, and then began to look at the woman who almost killed herself.
She's only sixteen or seventeen years old, so she can only be called a girl, right? The girl was as short as a golden thread and had a pretty face, but at this moment her dark green pupils burned with boiling hatred. The girl stared at the sky as if she wanted to burn him to deathβif it weren't for that, she would have been a very beautiful girl. Sky thought so, but it made him even more confused. In the end, Sky scratched his head with his uninjured other hand and smiled bitterly,
"What to do...... You ask me ...... too."
"Hold her in a cell for the time being, and when this matter is reported, she will be executed immediately!"
Rebel commanded in an indisobedient tone. In an instant, everyone present took a step backwards as if they had been hit by a hammer. In their impression, this princess of the royal family of Fernord is just a little arrogant and unkind, not such a cruel person!
"Didn't you hear that, Captain of the Garrison?"
Rebel accentuated his tone again, and ordered the captain of the guard beside him. She is definitely not a cold person, but the strong sense of fear that almost penetrates the entire heart at that moment just now is by no means something that can be forgotten lightly. Now that she had time to stop and reminisce, this fear gripped the princess's heart even tighter, like an icy blade cutting across her back, and Rebel's whole body trembled almost spasmodically. She never imagined that the young man who had always been with her would leave her because of such a small incident; I never thought about how I would fly after losing this only wing...... Rebel couldn't imagine such a situation, and because of this, she couldn't forgive the thing that tried to break her most important wing.
"Wait a minute, Rebel! Wouldn't that be too much? β
Sky recovered from the shock from the previous moment, stopped the guard who was about to carry out the order of the princess, and looked at Rebel and said.
ββ¦β¦ And what about your opinion? Did you let her go? β
The princess's anger suddenly turned to the sky. This man is so unsure of his life! Rebel almost wanted to pull out the beam gun and give this guy a shot.
"This ...... I ......"
The sky's face clearly read, "I'm embarrassed! Before he made a decision, the loyal chief of staff on the side protested fiercely,
"This must not be, my lord! In any case, she is a prisoner who attempted to assassinate a high-ranking general of the Astral Army, and must be sentenced in accordance with the laws of the Astral Army! Adults don't have the right to decide for themselves! β
Arya completely vetoed the decision that the sky had not yet made. In the incident just now, she was no less shocked than the princess. Arya blamed herself deeply, if she hadn't been deceived by that feeling, then she would have felt it before this woman approached, and the sky would be absolutely safe. Although Sky was very lucky to only suffer a minor injury just now, the next time ...... Thinking of this, the chief of staff with a strong sense of responsibility was already ready to take responsibility for this matter.
"Hmph, who wants the sympathy of you Yabuites! Kill me, kill me like you killed my grandfather! At this moment, the bound girl cried out, glared at the bewildered man with hateful eyes, and cursed, "Executioner! Murderer! Defector! Murderer! β
"Damn! You woman......"
The captain of the guard raised his fist at the restless prisoner, but considering that the other party was a girl about the same age as his own daughter, he didn't seem to be able to swing it anymore.
"Charan's lackey! Slaves of the invaders! There are no shameless men! β
The girl continued to curse, and the gaze of the surrounding Charan soldiers became more and more dangerousβalthough the person himself did not show what he was doing, they could no longer tolerate someone insulting the commander on whom they trusted their loyalty and honor. Quite a few put their hands on their guns.
"Shut up, miss!"
In this dangerous time, Ferit could no longer remain silent, he walked up to the girl, looked down at the face flushed with anger, and said in a very serious tone, "If you dare to insult the Admiral again, I will definitely give you a good taste of the horror of the space pirates." β
Frightened by the burly man's "hideous" expression, the girl stopped her voice for a while, and her body trembled slightly.
"By the way, miss, you're a little like a girl at last...... In that case, I'll be more interested in it later! Ferlet's language grew obscene, and both Rebel and Arya frowned, and the girl's body began to tremble.
"Don't scare her, Philitt."
There was a bitter taste in the voice of the sky. Ferlett seemed to anticipate that the chief would stop him, and gave a "You're replaced!" to the sky. After that, he immediately turned around and retreated to the original place, and the sky walked up helplessly, directly facing the girl's hateful gaze.
"Miss, the ...... As a victim, I think I should have the right to know why you stopped me, right? There was no hint of anger in the sky's voice, not at all like a person who had just been almost killed, but rather something like a discussion. Then, in a very soft voice, he asked, "Can you sue me?" β
As if surprised by the unexpected attitude of the enemy, the girl was silent for a while, and then shouted at the sky in a very strong voice,
ββ¦β¦ Executioner! You killed my grandfather, that gentle and kind grandfather of mine was killed by you! β
"Your grandfather?"
"It's Admiral Merman of the Confederate fleet that you just destroyed! He's my grandfather! β
"That's right......"
After listening to the girl's words, Sky nodded, and then quickly fell silent, his expression did not show a trace of fluctuation, but Rebel next to him was keenly aware that his clenched left fist was oozing a trace of blood.
"Is his wound still bleeding?" With this question in mind, Rebel shifted her gaze upwards, only to see a snow-white patch on the bandage on her shoulders in the sky.
"What's going on? β¦β¦ Don't! β
Rebel suddenly understood that it was the man's own unconscious fist clenching too tightly and piercing the skin. Even though his hands were hurt like this, the sky didn't feel the slightest feeling, which showed how deep the sadness was in his heart at this moment. Rebel suddenly felt a pang of pain in her heart, "This fool! She was almost going to curse like that.
When both of them were silent thinking about their own thoughts, the girl who was tied up began to curse the enemy in front of them again.
"You guy, you guy! Your hands are stained with the blood of innocent people! Under your feet are the bones of hundreds of billions of compatriots! One day you will be like those you have slain, and you will be crushed in this dark universe without a place to bury! At that time, even your relatives will clap their hands and praise the righteousness and truth of this world! No human being with a conscience will mourn your death! β¦β¦ Until then, the deathbed wails of those you have slain will become an eternal nightmare, keeping you awake every day and night! β
"Good girl, this little girl is so resentful......" Even Ferlett was startled, he didn't have the confidence to stop this girl this time.
"Troublesome woman, don't say any more!" Once again, Rebelt pulled out the snoofer, aiming it at the girl's eyebrows. If she dared to stab the heart of the sky again, then this time, no matter who stopped it, the princess really planned to shoot.
"Shut up!"
Next, before the girl's second sentence could be spoken, Sky did something no one expected - he gave the girl a slap. With a "snap", a red mark appeared on the girl's face, and the people around her froze again, and the entire passage suddenly became silent.
"Sky, sky?" Even Rebel was startled and looked at this young man who had been facing each other for three years in surprise. In her memory, the sky never seemed to be rough on anyone, let alone an unarmed girl. Ignoring everyone's feelings, the sky shot a burning and fierce gaze at the girl as if it were venting the anger that had been building up for a long time.
"Do you think you're the only one who is unfortunate? Don't be arrogant! Do you think that your grandfather represents justice? Less kidding! β
For the rest of the day, only the fierce and angry voices of the sky seemed to echo throughout the base, and the girl who had been slapped stared at him blankly.
"Do all the Charans killed by your human allies, and the inhabitants of the Free Planet, deserve to die? Are they all the embodiment of evil? Is there only one justice in this world, your human allies? β
"That's, that's ......"
The girl had no way to refute the man's words, helplessness and remorse filled the girl's heart, and the voice of the sky became even stronger,
"Have you ever seen the tearful face of a mother who has lost all her sons? Have you ever seen the grief of a girl after her lover died in battle? You know ...... Your best friend's children ask before you when their father will return, and you have to tell them the pain of their dear father's death? β
The sound of the sky echoed through the empty passages. Everyone, the Human Alliance and the people of the Charan Empire, listened silently to the young admiral's anger. Sad memories came back to my mind like a marquee, and the sky grew louder and louder as if it was angry with itself.
"No, right? You haven't experienced such feelings, have you? You don't even know anything! It's war! There is no war of righteousness! It is a world where the strong survive and the weak die! A little girl like you who doesn't rhyme with the world, what do you know! β
"So! Do the people you kill deserve to die? β
Finally found a reason, the girl fought against the sky at the same volume. Hearing this, the sky suddenly quieted down, and after a while, he said lightly,
ββ¦β¦ No, no one in this world has the right to take the lives of others...... At least, that's what I think. β
"Then why do you kill so many people? You executioner! Hypocrite! β
The shape seemed to be reversed, the girl's voice became aggressive, and Sky lowered her head gloomily, and red liquid oozed from her clenched left fist.
"Hmph, are you out of the picture? Executioner! β
ββ¦β¦β
The sky fell silent, and so did the surroundings.
At this time, the sky raised its head again. At this moment, there was no hesitation or doubt in his dark eyes. As if he had made up his mind, Sky's face showed a smile that was different from his usual one, and then he said softly,
ββ¦β¦ Indeed, as you say, my hands are stained with people's blood, and I am an executioner in the truest sense of the word. β
"Sky!"
Rabel cried out in surprise, but the sky continued as if it hadn't heard,
"But I have something I hold dear β this galactic future! I can give my life at any time for the only future I believe in...... And the stigma of being an executioner or a traitor is nothing compared to this determination, and even if I am hated and cursed by hundreds of billions or trillions of people, I will never give up the future I have been looking forward to. β
Sky stopped after making this confession in one breath, and the people around him seemed to be greatly shocked, and each showed a different expression.
"Whew, what a deserving Admiral! All at once he pulled back all the shapes......" Ferlett was once again impressed by the chief's talent, but it seemed to be in the wrong direction.
"That stupid ......" said the same thing, but now Rebel's face was full of feminine tenderness.
"My lord......" Arya was a little dissatisfied while admiring. Even if it's true, you don't need to say it so loudly!
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Sky didn't care about these things, he stared at the girl carefully, and reconfirmed,
"Miss, let me ask you again, do you still want to kill me?"
"That, of course! As long as I'm alive, I'll never give up! β
The girl's voice was now powerless, almost reckless.
"Really? But with your current strength, it's a very difficult thing to do, right? Because, as long as I send you to some border planet in the empire for attempting to assassinate the Admiral of the Emperor's ** team, you will never have a chance to get close to me again. β
After the sky said this without emotion, the girl glared at the man very unwillingly, as if she wanted to stab him to death with her eyes.
"So, I'll give you a chance...... Lupin - My realm is currently missing an administrative agent, will you go? β
Ignoring the girl's expression, the sky seemed to be inducing her step by step, and the girl who had this feeling shouted angrily, "Why should I listen to you!" β
"Please listen to me...... Sky's expression was still so indifferent, "I hired you as the administrative acting officer for a term of three years." In the meantime, you'll have to stay on the Pritt and take care of my business there. I will contact you once every three months, in person, of course. At that time, you can assassinate me if you want...... And in three years, if I'm still alive, I'll pay you what you want, whatever it is. β
"Great, great! Is it okay to say that! β
"Sky! What are you thinking? β
Saying this is almost equivalent to handing over your own life, so the two women on the side called out at the same time, but the girl looked at the sky suspiciously,
ββ¦β¦ It's true? β
"Well, but only if you live well by then."
A gentle smile appeared on Sky's face, and the girl turned her face away, pretending not to see, and shouted,
"I'm going to live! Before I killed you with my own hands! β
Hearing such an answer, Sky immediately laughed, as if greeting a friend, he kindly stretched out his uninjured other hand to the girl,
"So, my acting lady, at least tell me your name?"
The girl didn't shake the hand, but looked at the man who held out his hand to her with strange eyes. Is this guy really the one he almost killed himself? The girl's eyes looked to the sky's shoulder, where the bandage was indeed there.
"Why......" The girl's lips seemed to open slightly, she was tempted to ask the question, but finally gave her name, "...... I, my name is...... Call me Zhu and Zhu Li......"
"Okay. Miss Julie, please take care. Sky said this, without a trace of hypocrisy on his face, it was definitely a blessing from his heart.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
After that, the whole thing spread in Tranpur. The assassination of the Admiral was originally an extremely strict matter, but the final result made it impossible not to laugh. Thus began to circulate among the soldiers that their admiral, with his magnanimity, had spared the woman who had attempted to assassinate him, and had appointed her as his administrative agent.
"What will that woman want in three years?" Many people speculate like this.
When Rebel had dealt with the aftermath and the "assassination" had come to an end, she called the 228th Fleet. The person who took it was the chief of staff of the 228th Fleet, and she immediately guessed the meaning of the princess. Before Rebel could speak, Aliah told her that the Admiral had returned to the flagship and had given him command of the fleet, and that he had been in his private chamber after saying that he would have a good rest. Although two hours had passed, he still seemed to be sleeping, and there was no movement in it.
"Sky he...... It won't be a problem, right? β
With this concern in mind, Leibel immediately took a traffic boat to the dark blue battleship called the "Blue Confused Star".
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Sky, can I come in?" Leaving everyone on the bridge, Rebel walked alone to the room in the sky and asked softly outside the door.
"Huh? Yes! Please, please come in! "The sound of the sky came from inside. At this point, Rebel let go of the heart that had been hanging. She pushed the door open and walked in, there was only one lamp turned on, and the light was slightly low, but a white ...... could be seen thrown on the ground not far away It seemed to be something from a medicine box, and Sky was sitting with his back to the door, with strips of cloth wrapped around his left hand, but it didn't seem to work as well as it should.
"Rebel," said Sky, turning back to Reebel and looking at her pitifully, and stretched out his bleeding palm to her, "...... It hurts! β
ββ¦β¦ Stupid, who told you to clench your fists so tightly yourself! β
Rebel couldn't help but feel angry, funny, and heartbroken. She walked over, took out the medicine box from the drawer beside her, and held out her hand to the poor wounded, "Come, reach over." Sky obediently stretched out his hand to Rebel, and then quietly looked at the Empress Xia Lan who was drugged him. Rebel's movements are very light and gentle, but not very skillful, so he occasionally touches the wound in the sky, but the injured person does not show any painful expression. The sky just watched Rebel's every move gently.
Time flows in silence, and even the stars seem to have lost their glow. The warm darkness, or so the atmosphere?
"Hey, Sky," Rebel suddenly stopped, fixed his gaze on Sky's injured left hand, and asked softly, "May I ask a question?" β
"Well, what's the matter?" The sky seemed to be still immersed in tranquility. He stared blankly at Rebel's beautiful length, and now the princess looked as mysterious and beautiful as the elves of the stars.
"O goddess with the virtues of the stars!" He thought so.
"At that time...... Are you telling the truth? With that, Rabel cut the bandage, sprayed it with disinfectant a few times, and then looked up at the sky, her blue eyes glittering with a stellar heat.
"Huh?" Sky looked at Rebel with some surprise at first, then smiled and nodded slightly, "Ah, yes......"
"That's the case......" Hearing this, Rebel breathed a sigh of relief as if she had let go of something.
Although Rebel seems to be just a little confused now, the panic in her heart is definitely not just a "little" Cheng dΓΉ. In fact, the princess was now completely unable to understand her thoughts, and several emotions collided violently in her heartβthe sense of security after experiencing extreme fear, the unexplained joy, and the fear of losing what she valued again...... As long as you are with the sky, this feeling becomes stronger for no reason.
"Hmm...... Sky, there's a lot to deal with...... If it's okay, I'll go first. β
Rebelt couldn't stand the feeling anymore, and finally reluctantly made an excuse to leave this frightening place. Under the gaze of the sky, who was very understanding of this, Her Royal Highness, who had already walked to the door, turned around and confirmed, "Sky, you ...... Is there anything you need? β
"No, there isn't." Sky shook his head, apologetically, "I'm sorry, Rebel. Lord Woodin's side...... I'm sorry for you, I may not be allowed to handle ship affairs for the time being. β
"Of course." Rebel immediately showed dissatisfaction in the sky's voice, and vetoed the sky's protest in a very affirmative tone.
"And ......"
"Anyway!"
Sky stood up, as if he wanted to say something, but Leibel pressed him back again, "You can rest in peace for the next few days, and I'll take care of the rest of the things...... Or do you not believe in my abilities? The last words of the princess made the sky dare not say any more, only smiled bitterly and obediently quieted down.
"No, Your Highness...... It's just, something about that girl...... Only trouble you. β
Hearing this, Rebel's brows furrowed obviously, but she quickly regained her usual expression, "You...... Got it. I'll send someone to send that woman to Pulit first, and then you will personally appoint her as the lord's agent of Pulit, so that's okay, right?" β
"Please......" Except for a wry smile, the sky couldn't think of any other movements.
οΌβ¦β¦ Forgive me, my dear Highness, for my willfulness...... οΌ
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
And finally, the third paragraph, called "Radical Conflict"?
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The battle had lasted for nearly 14 hours, and under the uninterrupted attack of the 227th Fleet led by Queen Rebel, the Tranpur base was like a huge herbivore surrounded and attacked by a large group of small carnivores, and gradually lost its ability to resist. If it continues like this, it will only be a matter of time before it falls. At this time, in the rear of the fierce battlefield, a certain group began to fluctuate in the mental circuit of a group that had been ignored in the first place, although not deliberately.
ββ¦β¦ Strange, why is the enemy still resisting to this day? Either way, they don't have any chance of winning......" Sky looked at the battle on the screen in front of him, feeling a little puzzled. "Is it for the dignity of being a soldier of the Human Alliance...... No, even if it were, there would be no such almost stupid resistance. He shook his head, dismissed his speculation, and then fell back into deep thought, "What the hell...... What is it that keeps them resisting so much......"
"My lord, shall we just wait in the rear?" Alia, who had been talking about it since ten minutes ago, finally mustered up the courage to give advice to her boss.
"Huh? That's right. The sky that came back to his senses replied very dryly.
"But..."
The chief of staff, who was very dissatisfied with this answer, seemed to be about to speak, but the boss preemptively explained, "Now the enemy's supply base has been completely surrounded by His Highness Rebel's troops, isn't it?" Then even if our army reluctantly stepped forward, it would only disrupt the offensive of friendly forces, and ... Hmm, it's just to anger Your Highness. When he said the last sentence, Sky's expression was slightly complicated, which showed that he, who was recognized as the "Shadow of Rebel", was not fearless to the proud princess.
"However, this behavior of Your Highness is ...... It's clearly ignoring allies and monopolizing meritorious deeds! Seeing him like this, a strange feeling welled up in Arya's heart, and she couldn't help but blurt out.
"Be careful what you say, Chief of Staff!"
In the next moment, the boss's face changed drastically, and he loudly reprimanded his subordinates. In this sudden anger, however, reason was less than a tenth of the weight, and the rest was directed solely against the act of touching the golden image in one's heart with one's bare handsβan emotion that no one could control himself.
ββ¦β¦ Be. β
Aria, who had never been so harshly ordered by her boss, bit her lower lip and protested silently after suffering this anger without saying a word.
There was a serious dispute between the first and second men in the fleet, and the atmosphere on the bridge immediately sank. The corporals were amazed that the usually mild-mannered Admiral could have such a frightening side, and the sense of oppression emanating from him gave the impression that even the air was so viscous that it could not flow. Even the aides who wanted to intervene in the mediation between the two were afraid to touch this anger, and closed their mouths that were about to open, and almost held their breath.
ββ¦β¦ Sorry to speak to you in such a loud voice. β
The first to break this unpleasant atmosphere is the sky. His expression regained his usual gentleness, and he looked apologetically at the woman who was looking up at him with a surprised expression, and said in a sincere tone, "However, Her Highness Rebel is not that kind of person, please don't misunderstand her......"
"Indeed, His Highness is acting impulsively now...... But she's never been dominated by lust, and I've always believed that," he said, looking at Arya with trust and anticipation in his eyes, "and I hope ...... You can trust her as much as you believe me. β
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry, my subordinate lost his words just now. Please forgive me, my lord. Arya bowed to her boss and bowed her head deeply. Obscured by the long blue reflected starlight, her boss couldn't notice her expression of deep feelings such as gratitude and sighs. So the sky only patted her on the shoulder, and said softly,
"Don't worry, Arya, and... Thank you. β
The last paragraph shook the whole body of the woman with her head bowed, and a deep feeling immediately swelled up in her heart, (Is it because I believe in His Highness Rebel that I thank me?) For another woman...... That's why you're thanking me? οΌ
(What was I thinking!) Arya suddenly woke up from this negativity, but immediately fell into confusion because of her inexplicable feelings. At this moment, the voice of the sky came from her ear, "Arya? You...... You okay? β
"Huh? Yes, the subordinates are very good! Arya quickly blinked and came to her senses. Looking at the slightly worried face in the sky, she showed a smile like spring returning to the earth, "So, since the adults have nothing to do now, please let your subordinates make you a cup of tea, right?" β
"Well, I'm sorry for you!" It seems that she didn't think about her own stomach, and Sky accepted her kindness very bluntly.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Just as Sky picked up the white ceramic teacup, hesitantly stared at the amber liquid that looked like tea in it for a while, and then was about to kill it in one gulp, the alert system on the bridge instantly lit up.
"What's wrong?" Secretly sighing, Sky immediately put down the teacup and asked the monitor in front of him.
"Report, report, there are enemy troops in the direction of By286, the scale is huge, it is ...... It's the fleet! His voice was a little flustered, and then the monitor quickly projected the situation onto the screen.
"This, this is ......" The people on the bridge all stood up unconsciously. In the space in front of the 228th Fleet and behind the 227th Fleet, a distorted space appeared, and orange and yellow human alliance warships were constantly jumping out of it. In less than ten seconds, there were more than a thousand warships that could be confirmed by the naked eye alone. After witnessing this, there was probably only one person in the entire fleet who remained calm.
ββ¦β¦ I see, is that the reason? Staring at the enemy troops not far away, Sky nodded thoughtfully, and then woke up the stunned messenger, "Help me pick up Admiral Rebel." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
At the same time, in front of the Krampel base, the 227th Fleet, which was in a position of being in a disadvantageous position to break through from the rear due to the sudden arrival of a strong enemy from the rear, began to fall into disarray, and the actions of some warships that had not received clear instructions from above began to be disorderly, so the offensive against the enemy base was also slowed down.
"Damn, such a trick!" Rebel was very unwilling to punch him on the podium. First of all, the base without offensive force is used as bait to lure our army to launch a formation and launch a full-scale offensive, and use it to consume our army's energy and energy, while the garrisons in the base will come out in groups in front of them, ambushed in the plane universe in advance, and when our army's offensive reaches a critical point, it will appear from the rear and hit our army in one fell swoop, which has consumed a huge amount of mental and material energy, and the formation has been unable to turn back. This was the enemy's strategy, and she fell into such a trap so easily, and Rebel couldn't help but regret her initial impulse.
"Fleet, prepare to turn ......" Rebel hesitated for only a short time before giving the order. But it's certainly a bold bet, and the odds aren't high. Because the fleet is completely defenseless or offensive when it turns, it is normal to be completely reduced once it is attacked by the enemy, but at the moment it is the only way to avoid the worst that is coming.
(There is no other choice, and hesitating any longer will only make the already small vitality even less, so decide, decide...... Despite her persuasion, Rebel felt that there was something in the corner of her mind that was holding her back from this dangerous path, so she hesitated for a few seconds. And just as the subordinates looked at the hesitant boss with fear, and prayed in their hearts that she would not make extreme decisions, the voice of the second shoshi saved everyone's hearts.
"Admiral, Lord Sky has a communication coming in." There was also an element of joy in the cold girl's voice at this time.
"Sky?" The moment she heard the name, Rebel understood the reason for her hesitationβthe man who had been by her side since the moment they met. At the same time, she couldn't help but feel ashamed that she had forgotten such an important thing.
"Take it in!" Rebell's voice seemed to flicker, and seeing the happy look of his boss, his subordinates seemed to be a little relieved.
"Your Highness, have you already seen the fleet in the rear?" As soon as the screen appeared, Sky couldn't wait to ask.
"Ah, yes." Suppressing her excitement, Rebel replied in a flat voice, "Our army is currently planning to turn around. In the meantime, please cover up......" After making such a request, Rebel could not help but be a little discouraged, because it was only now that she realized that she was so dependent, but it was not a happy thing.
"No way!" Instead, Sky simply refused, and the surprise of the reaction made Rebel's beautiful star-blue eyes widen in surprise. "You can't turn around now! The defense of the fleet at the time of the turn is almost zero, and the enemy will not let go of this opportunity, and then ......"
"So what to do? Waiting for the enemy to crush our army in one fell swoop from the rear? Rabel interrupted him and angrily asked.
"......" did not commit the foolish act of confronting him head-on, and the sky only looked at the princess who was losing her temper in silence, with a wry smile on her face. After a few seconds, Rebel began to notice the childishness of her behavior and blushed. (IβI'm just being coquettish!) οΌ
"Please give me half an hour, Your Highness." Sky was very considerate to break the awkward atmosphere between the two first, but his next words made everyone's newly calmed hearts beat violently a few times again, "Thirty minutes later, if the enemy still has the strength to attack and cause His Highness's troops to be harmed, my subordinates are willing to apologize with their lives." β
"Great, great!" Ariya looked at her boss speechlessly, her eyes filled with surprise and annoyance.
ββ¦β¦ Hey, are you serious, Sky? Even Rebel couldn't believe it, and asked the man who boasted about it so tentatively.
"That man...... He can probably do it......" Ferty said in a voice that only he could hear.
"Trust me, Rebel."
Sky called out the name of the princess, and, I don't know if it was deliberately faked, his face was full of confidence. That sincere expression is incredibly persuasive, and people can't help but want to believe him from the bottom of their hearts.
"Since you've said so...... All right! Finally, Rabel nodded and agreed to his request. At this point, all the staff members of the 227th Fleet breathed a sigh of relief, and they all cast grateful eyes on the man who relieved them from the siege.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness!" Sky saluted, then cut off the communication. At the same time, Rebel did not hesitate to immediately open the general communication circuit of the whole fleet.
"Listen, the Admiral of the Sky is now temporarily blocking the enemy in the rear for us, and it is estimated that our army will not be attacked in the next twenty minutes...... Therefore, during this period, our army must destroy the enemy in front of them, and then go to the support! β
After receiving this message, the chaos of the entire fleet began to calm down due to the temporary removal of the threat from the rear. However, it is not for nothing that soldiers are skeptical of the capabilities of the sky.
"Can you really hold off the enemy? That's called Sky Admiral...... It's the first time you're leading a soldier into battle, right? β
For their uneasiness, the forerunner of the 227th Fleet, Hai Wen, was so comforted, "Don't worry, no problem!" That Admiral was a very reliable man! β
"That's right! That's right! The little brother looked a little weak, but that was only when facing our Highness. In general, he is very reliable! At the same time, another senior of the sky, the current chief of the 227th fleet, Sabado, testified that he could not hear the princess, but this drew the opposition of the second captain of the same fleet, Ferti, who had seemed to have a good opinion of the sky for a long time.
Then, very quickly, Rebel issued another stern order, "Order the entire fleet, all warships to keep attacking, focus on destroying their enemies, no matter what the battle situation is, and not retreat!" β
"Yes!" This time, the subordinates replied in a very spirited voice.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the 228th fleet, after cutting off the communication, the sky took a long breath, and suddenly fell on the chair, and said tiredly, "Whew~!" Ok......"
"Not at all! My lord! In the next moment, he was faced with the roar of the chief of staff, who was no less difficult than the princess. Yalia slapped her hands on the table and questioned her boss with an astonishing momentum, "Is it okay to make such a promise casually?" In case ......"
All the bridge personnel, including Sky, showed expressions as if they had seen a volcanic explosion in the polar regions, and their eyes seemed to be locked, and they all gathered on the chief of staff.
"Alia...... If you want to complain, please wait a minute. After a few seconds of silence, Sky raised a hand to stop the rest of her words, and stood up and ordered, "Communicator, open the fleet-wide communications loop for me." β
Then, Sky walked to the screen and began to speak to the more than 8,000 warships under his command with an unusually cautious expression, "I am Sky, now please listen carefully to my words." Suddenly, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at their admiral who appeared on the screen, the young man with a gentle smile.
After opening in a flat tone, Sky added an irresistible intensity to the next voice, "For the next twenty minutes, please concentrate all your attention, tense your every nerve, and meticulously carry out my every commandβif anyone does not fully carry out my orders, then I will not be responsible for his life; If anyone disobeys my orders, then I have to give up his life. β
The subordinates who had only seen the good side of the commander all along, as if they were facing a hurricane-level electromagnetic storm blowing from the depths of the star, and everyone did not even gasp for breath, and looked at the Admiral in awe.
βokοΌ okοΌ Just give orders, Admiral! At this point, someone who called himself "Crimson Meteor" intervened in a nonchalant voice, breaking the tension that had been too tense.
"It's Ferlet...... Sky smiled bitterly, then raised his head and gave the first order loudly,
"Prepare for the first wave of mine attacks! Target yT9o7, pRo86, sk754, Ly876, attack at the same time at four points, shoot! β
Ignoring the monitor, who was tasked with measuring the enemy's position, the sky reported four unconfirmed coordinates. Almost at the same time, the mines of more than 2,000 mineships poured out, and they were very accurately concentrated in the thickest places of the four enemy formations. Hit by a sudden attack from the rear, most of the enemy ships didn't even have a chance to dodge, and immediately turned into a mixture of light and shadow. Four machine mines exploded at the same time, and a storm of energy rolled up in all four places, engulfing the Confederates. And under that irresistible force, countless ships were rolling, wailing, breaking, and shattering...... In the end, it was all reduced to one of them.
Suddenly, the universe boiled!
While the entire fleet cheered at the success of the first blow, the commander's harsh order came again, "All battleship electromagnetic projection guns are ready to fire at 75% of their full power!" Target HD736, Concentrate Attack, Shoot! β
This time the order was also carried out immediately, and the main gun muzzles of nearly four thousand battleships lit up at the same time. In the next moment, I saw countless arrows of light rushing towards the Alliance like a tide of rage. As if pulled by some kind of force, these countless arrows of light merged into a shining light in the void before reaching the Alliance, and in an instant, it penetrated the central part of the enemy formation. After a brief flash of light, what is left is a vast vacuum area where only particles are stored.
Before the stunned crowd could sober up and cheer, another order was issued from the sky, "The assault fleet obeys the order!" Break through the gap opened by the electromagnetic projectile cannon into enemy lines! All the remaining fleets covered their advance with the usual shelling! β
"Listen, Ferlet! Don't fight the enemy! All you have to do is go as far as you can in that straight line! In the end, Sky added another paragraph uneasily.
"Oh! It's finally time for me to play! Philit let out a cheer and rushed out with his assault fleet in an instant, "It's hard to wait for the opportunity, brothers, you have to behave well!" β
At this time, on the flagship of the self-army, "Blue Confused Star", after watching the assault fleet leave, an inexplicable smile appeared on the face of the sky. To the chief of staff on the sidelines, it seemed to contain some kind of terrifying and dangerous particle.
(Isn't that right...... Suddenly, a thought crossed Arya's mind, (no mistake...... There's only one way to deal with the enemy in a fraction of the time! That is, to lure the enemy into a straight line with the bait of their assault fleet of Philitas, and then to concentrate the attack with electromagnetic projectile cannons to bring the Confederates in the same straight line...... There is also an assault fleet of its own army...... Defeat together! οΌ
The dangerous thought made her shudder. After hesitating for a while, she finally mustered up the courage to ask her boss, "Your Excellency, are you ...... Are you going to sacrifice them? β
"Huh? What do you say, Arya? Looking back at her was a pair of innocent eyes and a confused gaze.
(Am I guessing wrong?) Seeing this normal sky, Arya couldn't help but feel extremely sorry for the cruel cold-blooded person she had just thought of him, but at the same time she was even more curious.
(What exactly is this man going to use to crush the enemy?) She stared intently at the sharp silhouette of her boss's side, thinking.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
On the other hand, the 147th Fleet of the Human Alliance, which had just jumped into normal space and had not had time to form a formation, was attacked by the enemy from the rear - the ferocious attack of Admiral Heckram, who was also known as "Aegis" for the Astral Army, lost nearly 3,000 warships in an instant, and the command system of the entire fleet was also destroyed at the same time.
"Woo~! What a strong offensive...... The first blow alone cost our army nearly half of the fleet......" moaned among the wingmen on the Confederate flagship. And some people who were a little more sober couldn't help but tremble with fear after understanding the situation, "The enemy did not put all his forces into the base battle, but waited there from the beginning...... Could it be that they had already predicted the actions of our army? β
When this suspicion arose among the staff and was affirmed by the soldiers in circulation, the confusion of the Confederates became even more apparent. Uneasiness begets rumors, and rumors add to unease. While cursing the enemy leader, the soldiers also cursed the commander of their own army. However, there is also a part of the alliance that is close to the truth, mixed with the dialects unique to each planet.
"The enemy general...... It seems to be the guy called the sky! β
"Sky? Annihilating the Reynard Pirate Group seems to be him, and it seems to be very powerful......"
"Isn't that the rebel? β¦β¦ That guy was originally an earthlyman, but he was fascinated by Xia Lan's woman, and was willing to give up his dignity and freedom and become the dog of the empire! β
"What a shameless fellow! With such a person as a commander, the people of Xialan actually dare to call themselves the 'Star Clan'? β
β¦β¦ The soldiers' anger was concentrated in this direction. If Rebel could have heard, then there must have been a large group of captives exiled afterwards, right? However, the Admiral of the Astral Army at this time does not seem to have the spare energy to care about their life and death.
"May, Admiral Merman, the enemy's assault fleet is rushing in along the gap in the center of our army!" The Monitor's panicked voice contained a great deal of unease, but the Commander did not hesitate to express displeasure at this time, Melman stared at the enemy battlefleet fanning out in the rear of the Himself Army on the screen, and the enemy assault fleet that was rushing through the Wing in a spindle formation, trying to parse their movements.
"Do you plan to cut off our army from it, and then decide the winner with an artillery battle in one go?" Thinking that he understood the enemy's purpose, Melman spat out proud words with disdain, "Hmph, arrogant junior! Well, let's just show you how real Confederate soldiers fought! β
"The flanks of the fleet quickly circled to the rear of the self-army and cut off the retreat of the enemy assault fleet! The forward fleet is lined up in depth while turning, so as not to let the enemy break through! β
True to the veteran of the Confederate army, Melman's judgment was swift and accurate, but his subordinates could not act to the same level. Many Allied warships with disorganized communications or impaired power began to collide in all directions, ignoring the movements of the army. The collision between these inertial metal objects resulted in the birth of countless vortices of light and flames in the universe, which in turn made the Allied defenses' already weak defenses even more vulnerable to the assault fleet led by Perlett.
"Fuck off! I don't care about you! I don't care about you! Ferlett yelled at the enemy, who dodged to the side in a cooperative manner, allowing the opponent to rush past his own lines. In fact, they can't stand up to the astrity of the former leader of the Pirate Corps.
"Bastard! Don't go back! Don't go back! The hapless front-line commander, who was currently directly fighting Ferlet, roared with rage when he saw the condition of his men. And in the meantime, the enemy has locked on to his position.
"Onward! Advance! Let those proud soldiers show us our tactics! Ferlett loudly encouraged his men, and the pirates responded with high morale. They weren't soldiers, and they weren't fighting for any so-called "justice", but all of that was for themselves, and the man, the Admiral of the Astral Army, whom he called their "friend."
"Report, report! The enemy's assault ships are rushing towards our ship! "The assault ship, which had alarmed the monitors, was now rushing straight toward the Buckfud, the battleship of the commander's reach, at an astonishing height, and showed no sign of abating. And in the next moment, the assault ship returned to the Sea of Atoms with a battleship several times larger than itself - a completely suicidal tactic.
"These guys...... Are they all crazy? Don't die! β
"Just kidding! I don't want to die with them! β
"Avoid! Avoid! Get out of the way! β
This tactic, which had once overwhelmed the skies, broke the fighting spirit of the allies at once, and along the passage they had awayed, Ferlett's assault fleet easily burst into the enemy's rear.
"Report, report, the enemy assault fleet has broken through most of our army's defense line!"
When this information was received, Admiral Rayman of the 147th Fleet of the Human Alliance was thinking about how to get out of this situation. Then after a long while, he came back to his senses and said in a trembling voice,
ββ¦β¦ So fast? β
The enemy is as powerful as you can imagine! And if you just defend and don't attack like this, maybe it will really be solved in one go! Despite the fear in his mind, Melman made the right judgment. So he commanded,
ββ¦β¦ Pass the order, abandon the interception of the enemy assault fleet, and gather all the ships in its rear! Line up in a spindle formation and prepare to break through to the rear enemy lines! β
Avoid the sharp blades in your opponent's hands and rush straight into their arms. This is a very dangerous method, because it is likely that the opponent's blade will be stabbed into the heart first. Therefore, some of the aides asked worriedly, "Admiral, is this okay?" In case the enemy uses electromagnetic projectile cannons again......"
"In that case, even their own assault fleet will run through it...... The people of Abu, who call themselves the 'Lords of the Stars,' will not do anything to kill their comrades. In order to comfort his uneasy subordinates and his equally uneasy self, Melman said something that even he was not sure about.
"I see! Admiral Merman! The subordinate praised his boss with peace of mind.
"Suppose that enemy general is really ...... Well, my dear Julie, I'm afraid Grandpa won't be able to celebrate your birthday with you anymore......" Melman whispered as he looked at the gathering ships. In fact, this was indeed his last words.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the Astral Army, on the blue battleship "Blue Confused Star", there is a young man who is from the earthly world, but has a more gentle and kind heart than the Yabu people. Looking at the enemy troops gradually gathering on the screen, the young man raised a red like fire,
"Succeeded, they were tricked!"
There was a sense of relief in the sound of the sky. And then, again, he connected with Ferlet's troops,
"Listen, Ferlet! Now go all ahead and break through the enemy in the shortest possible time! After that, don't stay! Fly all the way to the rear of the 227th Fleet and stand by there! β
"Huh? Oh, no problem! Just one minute is enough, General! Ferlett quickly understood his intentions and immediately agreed.
Then, without hesitation, the sky gave an order to the battlefleet under his opponent,
"All battleship electromagnetic projection guns are ready to shoot at 12o% of their maximum power, and they will be fired as soon as the assault fleet leaves range!"
At this time, Arya, who was on the side, finally understood her boss's plan, and couldn't help but cast an almost adoring gaze at him. Without the ability to think unfettered tactics and the ability to encompass the entire battlefield, it is impossible to make such a tactic that is completely out of common sense -- this kind of demonic and terrifying tactic that can annihilate the same number of enemy forces in an instant. Moreover, his terrifying insight, which almost completely predicted the movements of the enemy, was impossible to ignore.
(What kind of power is hidden in this person?) Arya looked at her boss with some blankness, and assumed, (If his power is fully wielded, what kind of changes will it bring to this universe?) οΌ
"Report, the assault fleet is fully out of range, and 96% of the enemy forces are currently in the orbit of electromagnetic projection guns!" γ
The voice of the monitor was heard. At about the same time, Sky drew the sword from his waist and pointed straight ahead.
"Electromagnetic projection cannon, straight ahead, salvo three in a row!"
Then, a larger force of light gathered in the universe, penetrating the Allied fleet that was more concentrated than before, inflicting far more losses than before, leaving a much wider vacuum in the void......
"Julie, live well...... "The old admiral thought the old admiral a moment before the flagship "Karlovkis" was swallowed up by this stream of light and his horizon fell into darkness.
In this attack, the 147th Fleet of the Human Alliance lost all its combat power, including the flagship, and was completely defeated.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
At the front of the battlefield, the assault fleet, feeling the bright light and shock waves coming from the rear, looked back, and all they saw was the moment when the Allied forces were destroyedβthe scene of thousands of warships churning and shattering in a sea of light and flame.
"10,000, 10,000 warships ...... in an instant"
Even a man as brave as Ferlett felt a deep chill in his soul. It is really unbelievable that such a picture scroll that seems to be like a reappearance of hell was actually painted by the hand of that angelic young man who is kinder and gentler than anyone else.
"Ha, haha, it's really scary...... The strength of our general ......" After a long time, Ferlett had such an emotion.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Report! It was confirmed that the flagship of the enemy fleet had been destroyed, and the remnants of the ships were less than 10%, and they were in the process of retreating. The enemy's current combat strength is ...... Extremely low! β
After receiving the monitor's report, Sky nodded slightly and gave a brutal order, "Hmm...... The second wave of mine attacks is prepared, targeting all remaining enemy ships ......"
"Great, great! Will this work? "Generally speaking, the Astral Army is not allowed to attack an enemy who is no longer able to resist......"
"Shoot!" Ignoring the opposition of the chief of staff, the sky still gave the order.
After that, the universe was surrounded by flames of light......
It feels as if a century has passed, and the universe is no longer shining. At this time, the sky, which had been staring at the picture in front of me, turned around, and there seemed to be no warmth on my face, and I couldn't tell whether it was sadness or joy. Then, he turned his gaze to the stunned monitor,
"Monitor, report on the condition of the enemy."
ββ¦β¦ Yes? Yes, yes! The remaining ships of the enemy and the enemy fleet are currently ...... For, zero! β
"Arya, what time is it?"
ββ¦β¦ Well? Be! The current time inside the ship is SN9:54:34, and the elapsed time from the beginning of the battle to the present is ...... 14, 14 minutes and 46 seconds? β
ββ¦β¦ Luckily, it didn't work. β
Sky let out a reassuring breath, sat down in his chair, and ordered, "Lift the battle posture and put all ships on alert." Then he picked up the warm cup of green tea and poured it down his parched throat in one gulp. Then, he opened the all-fleet newsletter and thanked the soldiers. "Ladies and gentlemen, thanks to your heroic efforts, our fleet has won this battle! And for your courage, I have the highest respect for you! Thank you, all of you, for your hard work! Next, please take a good rest. Suddenly, the soldiers, who were immersed in the miraculous joy of victory, cheered again for the thoughtfulness of their admiral. And at this time, the sky got up and walked out of the bridge,
"I'll bother you, Arya, I'll go get some rest......"
There didn't seem to be any spiritual voice, so Arya couldn't help but look at his back worriedly, "My lord, you...... Okay? Paused by the voice, the sky looked back to the chief of staff with a smile like the early summer sun, "By the way, thank you for your tea, Arya." β
"Yes......" At that moment, Ariyah felt that she deeply liked this smile.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
When the news of the total reduction of the Allied fleet reached the 227th Fleet, even the proud princess was stunned for a while, just like everyone else. After a long time, Rebel came back to his senses, but couldn't help but confirm again, "Communicator, is this news reliable?" β
"Yes! It was confirmed that the news was indeed from the Sky Admiral...... Moreover, there really is no reaction of the Confederate fleet on the radar! β
After hearing this, Leibel showed a very rare confused expression, and said in a slightly complicated tone, as if asking herself,
"That guy, when did you start getting so strong?"
"Admiral, the enemy base has signaled surrender."
The voice of the second seat Shoshi sounded exceptionally clear, and the owner of the voice seemed to have a rare smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Hmm...... In reply to them, I accepted their surrender as Admiral of the 227th Fleet of the Astral Army. After replying, Rebel put away the sword that had hung to the ground, and walked back, "Shoshi first, and then I'll leave it to you." β
"Rest assured, Admiral." Looking at Rebel's seemingly tired steps, Hai Wen, who had been assisting her since her captain's days, couldn't help but be a little worried.
"It doesn't matter to the princess, right?" Sabado also showed the Commander's strange appearance, and sighed, "Anyway, we can be regarded as being saved by that little brother this time. This fact is a big blow to the proud self-esteem of that princess! β
"You...... Seems to be happy? Haiwen, who felt this way, showed a dissatisfied expression towards him.
"How so? I'm just interested in what's going to happen......"
In Haiwen's eyes, Sabadon's ambiguous smile seemed to shake the devil's tail underneath.
"However, if it were that person, the Admiral wouldn't be too unwilling." At this time, Foti, who had been listening to their conversation, suddenly interjected.
"Maybe? But maybe it's the other way around, and that's probably ......."
Sabado stroked his chin and said thoughtfully. It is not so much that he is not optimistic about the matter, but rather that he expects things to turn out in the opposite direction.
"Why? I'm glad I was saved by that person. β
Despite the striking content of his words, Foti's tone was as flat as ever.
"Huh~~?" Hearing this sudden confession, Hai Wen's eyes couldn't help but widen in surprise. And for the things that are about to be born, this capable ancestor is becoming less and less confident.
"Ah...... Well, though, generally speaking, women who are treated like this by their beloved men feel happy...... However, our Admiral is the royal princess of Philrod, who has a high self-esteem! Whether she will think like that, I don't know. β
After answering this, Sabado sighed in his heart,
"It seems that I can't call that sky a little brother anymore...... Not only had a triangular relationship already established, but perhaps now there was even a four-cornered relationship - a ...... with that beautiful chief of staff" Then, he smiled maliciously,
"So, next, that little brother...... No, will the Admiral be able to handle it? β
