Chapter 292 & 293: The Secret of the Starship Core (2 & 3)

The command room of the Yunshan is a compartment located on the bridge. It's not too big, and the dΓ©cor is impersonal, similar to that of General Kramer's family, with no focus on personal enjoyment, and a clear goal and ambition. Yong summed it up with a general statement, they are people who do big things, and they don't stick to small sections.

I was in the command room, staring at the two of them with the general.

"You have a lot of secrets."

The general was a cold man, but he was definitely not a gloomy fellow, and I could see the openness in his eyes. I was sure that this father must have been an immortal man, otherwise he would have educated two wonderful men.

"I don't have secrets, it's just that a lot of times, no one cares about what happens to me. And it's these little things that have a lot of energy in them. ”

I also tried to face him with a calm demeanor. It wasn't deliberately concealed, but the experience was so bizarre that the unbelievable explanation sounded more like a lie, and over time the peculiarity of me was recognized in all sorts of more ordinary interpretations, and it became more and more distant from the truth.

General Kramer looked at me for a long time as if he wanted to see through me, and then withdrew his sharp gaze.

I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. To say that you are not nervous is a lie, and it is normal for people to be stared at by such a big man and get hairy.

"I've heard that Inuko Edlaide has worked with you. What do you think? The little guy wasn't knocked down from behind, was he? ”

It seems that the general is a person who has a strange protrusion and likes to play cards out of common sense.

I was surprised that he would mention Edlaide, anyway, it was more normal to mention Verelli to his face. But from his words, I also understood that he came prepared, and he must have been carefully investigated beforehand.

"He was a brave warrior and died very bravely...... It's a shame. ”

The general's words evoked my memories of how outstanding the young man who was more like a senior officer than the supreme commander of the 05th Division, and how unlucky he was, and how an ordinary ambush ruined his good future.

"There is no pity, there is only one human life, and it all starts from birth to death. Walking in this world for a while, encountering some things and people, just do your best, whether you succeed or not, it is really not something we can decide. ”

β€œ......”

The general's answer left me speechless. It's still that feeling cold to the bone. This trait of his is very similar to that of another person, although the two are different in personality and appearance. is really worthy of Green's boss, and the partner of the two is definitely an example of similar things.

"Very well, the intelligence services did not pay enough attention to you before, it is indeed their dereliction of duty, I will tell them to be careful in the future. As for now, since I, the captain of the fleet, are paying attention to you, please don't deliberately cover it up, it's not good for everyone. ”

Kramer's words are very straightforward, which makes people very uncomfortable to listen to, and there is no way to thin them. I was unhappy and changed my sitting position again, and decided to make peace with the plate.

"Everything starts with joining Captain Nguyen's special unit......

This is the first time I have systematically talked to another person about my experience and the impact it has had. Although I knew that the captain could never waste much time on me alone, there was so much to say that even if it was condensed, my mouth was dry.

During this period, the tactical staff of the fleet pushed the door in several times, wanting Kramer to come forward to preside over the work, but he refused.

Kramer was a wonderful listener, and he didn't interrupt me, but waited for me to finish everything I had been going through.

When I finally told me the general experience, I felt that the courage on my shoulders was lifted a lot. All along, the feeling of oppression that kept a huge secret disappeared immediately.

After listening to me, Kramer was doing something at the table. Without looking up, he said, "I recorded the audio." The amount of information you have is too large, and it needs to be sorted by professionals to make it easier to understand, and there will be no missing items. I hope you don't mind. ”

"No, I don't mind."

General Kramer stared at me again, and always felt that his expression had become much kinder, was it because the secrets had been told and his mind was calm?

"I have to say, it's a miracle that you survived."

β€œ......”

"It's a good thing you didn't report this to the top from the start. Until the Earth falls, the Coalition Government will never let your secrets be exposed. ”

I didn't understand what he meant, and then my chest filled with anger.

"I'm innocent, and so are Teresa and Kiana. Is the coalition government trying to harm us innocents for the sake of such innocuous information? ”

"Colonel, please be calm. The world of politics is not something you can understand at your age, and even if you have become a veteran with a record of making enemies fearful, you still have a long way to go before you can figure out what is politically correct and what is sophisticated. ”

Unmoved, I still glared at him with angry eyes, as if he were the one who wanted to harm us.

"It's different now, and in fact the new government that may emerge in the future, whether it's a continuation of the coalition government or not, will want you to make what you know public, so that you can distinguish between the old and new governments, and you can prove that the new government is fundamentally different from the old one. Although I think that no matter how the government changes, the government is the government, and what they rent will not make any difference. ”

I was made to laugh but didn't dare to laugh at General Kramer's mockery of politicians with his serious expression, and my expression must have been very embarrassing.

"I have received information from you, even if it is only a cursory listen, but it has benefited a lot, and I believe that your information can bring the best guidance for the future of the fleet and the survival of the people of the solar system."

The general's words were proud, although I still couldn't keep up with his pace.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to the starship cores that are already under the control of your detachment, after all, they are now the enemy of the world, and you are the only one who can take them in quietly."

"General, there is something I don't understand, maybe this involves confidentiality, but I can't help but ask......"

"I know what you want to ask. First of all, this is indeed confidential, but because of your identity, it doesn't hurt to tell you. The starship cores are not what you think, they just exist as a group of more college starship pilots. At the same time, they are a true indication of the future direction of humanity. Their very existence is likely to subvert the rationality of the existence of both Wolff's mechanical civilization and Brand's biochemical civilization. Of course, that's not why they're so important. More importantly, they are not just products of human technology. ”

"Not just a product of human technology?"

I chewed on the meaning of Kramer's words repeatedly, and then a wave of astonishment rose uncontrollably from my heart.

"You're not as rough as you think you are. It is impossible for a rough person to taste the meaning contained in a sentence. Yes, as you guessed, Starship Core is the product of true alien technology. It is not an alien colony of human beings, but a product of alien civilization technology in the universe in a pure sense that has nothing to do with human beings on earth. It is no exaggeration to say that with them, there is a future for mankind. ”

......

......

After leaving the command room, changing into a scooter all the way, and then shortening the shuttle, I was finally able to return to the Wanwang on the resupplied young cruiser.

When I returned to the squadron, I found that the number of frigates in the detachment had increased considerably, and in fact there were 16 more Wolff-sized combat ships, including 1 cruiser and 15 destroyers and gunboats.

Seeing so many 'enemy' ships appear in their own detachments. I understood the general's intentions, but were they really willing to serve us? Kramer: He's too optimistic.

"Sir, Captain Kiana and Captain Karenn want to see you."

"Let them in."

The reason why the two appeared should be related to the newly equipped Wolf battleship. I frowned and wondered if I had been used by Kramer as I entered the Kings' tactical boardroom, which we used as a place for senior officers to discuss secrets.

Soon Kiana and Karen pushed the door open. The white-haired woman is beautiful and regains her right arm, which makes her appearance even more perfect. Beside her, the blue-haired Karen looked angry, her puffing cheeks like eggs stuffed into it.

I looked up and saw Karen striding forward, looking like she was about to slap the table.

Kiana quickly stops her and signals for her to take the lead.

"Sir, please forgive Karen for her rudeness, she is too wishful thinking to guess your intentions, which has caused her current discomfort."

Faced with the misunderstanding of the beautiful woman, I felt bored in my heart. But since she didn't speak ill of her, I couldn't have a seizure, so I could only suppress my anger.

"You must have misunderstood something, I didn't mean to send so many Wolff's battleships."

"Whether you mean it or not, just look at the results. If you hadn't revealed our identities, someone would have volunteered to send these weapons. I'm so disappointed in you, I thought you were different from everyone else, and you didn't want to use us because of our starship core identity, but now it seems that I was wrong, I misjudged you. ”

Cali's snatch made my blood rush up, and I was on the verge of slapping the table and scolding her. However, the combat experience stopped me in time and made me realize that anger does not solve the problem.

When I came to consciousness, I realized that I had stood up. It looked like he was going to scold Karen.

Shaking my head and letting out a long breath of cloudy air, I sat down again.

"It's not what you're seeing, and I can probably guess why it's happening......"

"Liar!"

Karen's scolding almost made me jump again.

"Don't interject, wait for Mr. Zhao Ping to finish speaking."

Kiana's attitude, although calm, made me feel even more chilled. She used the title of gentleman, and it made people feel that the distance between us had widened a lot all at once.

There is a thought wandering in my head, what are these two women angry about? Do I owe you something or something? I finally rescued you from captivity, but in exchange for indiscriminate questioning.

Since I thought about it this way, my attitude became cold, although I knew that it shouldn't be like this, but the emotions in my heart were uncontrollable at this time.

"Miss Kiana is right, why don't you listen to me. Why should I deceive you, your appearance from the beginning was unexpected, why should I deliberately deceive you by accident. ”

My words were as raw as I spoke, and anger appeared on the faces of the two starship cores. Seeing their reactions, my emotions stabilized. The head and face were scolded, and it took a little counterattack to feel smooth.

"I have not kept the secrets of your existence and of Madame Wall, the Berlanders, and so on, from the very beginning from the fleet or the military headquarters. In fact, it was the inertia of the people and the indifference to the infantry that helped to keep the secret. No one would think that an infantryman like me would be able to grasp any important information. And then ignore you and some of the more important information. ”

β€œ......”

I didn't want to pay attention to the expressions of the two of them, and I went on.

"I was originally a person who was bent on death, because of Teresa and her relationship, I was dragged into the Avalon base, if it weren't for them, I would have died in the battle on the outskirts of the base, so that I can safely pursue those friends who are one step ahead of me."

"Humph!" , Karen snorted and expressed her attitude, she didn't believe my words, Kiana frowned and listened to me, I don't know how she thinks of me, I don't think it's going to be much better.

"What happened below, as most of you know, stumbled upon you and fled Avalon with you with much the same goal. But I never knew if I should continue with my previous plan, which was to leave with my deceased love, Karin. After all, I have seen too much misery and death, and it is not very attractive for me to survive. ”

The expressions of the two softened, and they looked a little surprised, they must not have thought that I was a veteran who saw through life and death and was ready to commit suicide.

"It's a pity that I still can't give up the Children of Mars, this group that has crossed paths with me before, and since I have been with you all the way, I don't want to give up halfway, thinking about sending you to a safe place together, and it's not too late to carry out the plan. It wasn't until I found 15 little girls like you when I saved the refugees on Earth that I realized that the core of the starship was not as simple as I imagined, it was just a group of girls who were separated from the Wolf Star Field due to the failure of the infighting. When the fleet retreated, Admiral Kramer almost instructed, with a clear plan, that Wolf and Brand's fleet had information about you here. And the two fleets really stepped into this strategy knowing that it was a strategy, and really attacked each other. I know that the secret of your identity may not even be clear to you. Otherwise, the two powers, which represent the top of human civilization, would not have risked the heavy damage of the fleet and rushed towards you without hesitation. ”

Karen's face was a little confused by what I said, and her face was full of confusion. Kiana is different, and her own qualities make her such a straightforward character. I've said it so plainly, she can't feel the meaning of it anymore. In fact, the shock in Kiana's expression now has overshadowed everything else, and I confirmed the doubts I had always had in her expression.

They didn't hide anything from me, they really didn't know that they still had the secret of an alien civilization.

"Your identity was discovered by the fleet's intelligence team, and I believe that the most likely place to go wrong is to save the 15 starship cores of the laboratory, and it is impossible for them to be taken seriously by the intelligence team as important information of the classified laboratory."

When I used the experimental data to describe the little girls, both starship cores frowned. They must not like to be treated as objects rather than as human beings.

"General Kramer is an honest man. The purpose of everything he does is to protect the solar system and the people who live in it. So his use of you is only to be a child, so that the two rival forces can fight each other. He came to me and told me clearly that your real secret lies in the crystallization of alien civilization technology. I don't think you know it has anything to do with extraterrestrial civilizations. ”

β€œ......”

The two were silent, the anger on Kalian's face had long since been replaced by the shock of bewilderment, and Kiana was looking down in thought, I think she must need time to sort things out.

I scrambled to my feet, drawing the attention of both of them.

"Although I would like to say that women do not have to participate in the war. But this world is so cruel, in order to survive, you must use all possible means at your disposal. I would like to say that we still have common interests and purposes, and if you want to live and be free under the prying eyes of Madame Wall and the Branders with ulterior motives, you must also work hard to achieve this. Train the little girls, pilot the battleships equipped for you, and fight for your future. I believe that as long as you perform in battle and gain the recognition of the officers and men of the fleet, at least in the fleet, no one will despise you anymore, and you will receive the corresponding attention and status. ”

Before the two of us could answer, I strode out of the room. The fleet is about to set sail, and there is still so much to do, whether the starship cores are willing to continue to work with us, there is still something that needs to be done.
