Chapter 3: The Demon Dragon Raid

() There is a fleet of five flying ships sailing in the vast universe, and the four smaller ones surround the larger one in the middle from four directions, each with a striking Camellia mark.

Although this fleet cannot be compared with those large fleets with hundreds of ships at every turn, it does not mean that it is ordinary and weak. Of the four small ships, three of them were the military special "Eagle" type warships of the Luo Yun Kingdom, the leader of the Hundred Nations Alliance.

The small battleship at the front of the team is even more extraordinary, jointly manufactured by the shipbuilding plant under the AMA Company of the Southern Alliance and the Yanhuang Mickey Mecha Company -- the "Firebird", known as the "Immortal Phoenix", is known for its unbreakable protective capabilities, and the battleship's original two mechs make the "Firebird" adapt to a variety of combat environments.

A total of ten battleships with special abilities like the "Firebird" were built by AMA and Mickey, and the designers exhausted all their jīng strength and inspiration to quit the battleship manufacturing industry, but the prestige of the ten battleships spread far and wide, almost to the point of becoming household names.

At this moment, there are four people sitting in the command room of the "Firebird", sitting on a luxurious chair directly above is a beautiful woman with long hair, long hair like ink, naturally tied behind her head by a headband, her face is very delicate and has an indescribable charm, the straight black military uniform sets off the snow-white skin, like a Venus in military uniform.

The old man opposite her was full of silver hair, gorgeous clothes, and a majestic face, which made people see at a glance that he was a powerful person.

The lady on the right hand side of the old man was wearing a black military uniform and her eyes were shining with wisdom, and on the left hand side was a handsome young man with the aura of a warrior all over her body.

The four of them were looking at an electronic map with dots of light flickering from time to time. The old man said to the black-haired beauty opposite: "Your Highness, we are about to enter the meteorite area, and we will be able to return to Huadu soon." ”

The black-haired beauty raised her head and responded, "Lord Langke, if it weren't for you, we might have to spend a lot of effort to get all the supplies this time, but I didn't expect the situation within the alliance to become so tense." ”

The old man sighed slightly: "Yes, now the four major forces are no longer engaged in large-scale wars like usual, as if they have reached some kind of consensus to temporarily focus on the internal forces. ”

"This will not have much impact on our Huadu, we grow our own food, vegetables, fruits, and the stored materials are enough for three or five years, and the asteroid where our Huadu country is located is surrounded by countless meteorites, and people who don't know the secrets of it will not be able to find the location of Huadu at all, and they will be lost in the meteorite group," said the ink-haired beauty.

The handsome young man continued: "The kingdom has no other precious goods or resources other than flowers, and it is not profitable at all, and until now there has not been a single hostile nation, and there has been no war except when it was attacked by an unknown force twenty years ago. ”

The ink-haired beauty asked, "Kerry, did your father, General Ka'an, sue you for doing this?" I once asked my father, the king, and he said he was an interstellar bandit. But I don't believe any bandit gang has a hundred military warships, and the main ship can escape after being trapped. ”

Kerry replied: "My father also said that it was a robber, but it is not surprising that the battleship escaped, I heard that it is known as the strongest battleship in the universe 'Demon Dragon', and our 'Firebird' is one of the top ten ships jointly built by AMA and Mickey, but the 'Demon Dragon' ranks first and we are eighth." ”

The black-haired beauty was about to ask about the "Demon Dragon", when the female officer next to her, who had been watching the map, suddenly said: "Your Royal Highness, we will enter the meteorite group in fifteen minutes and ask you to give an order." ”

The princess looked at the map and said, "Captain Miraya, thank you for the reminder, I couldn't help but be shocked when I heard Kerry's words just now, since the enemy will attack us once, there is a reason to attack us a second time." I ordered all ships to be put into combat readiness, the radar power was turned on, the search range was increased, all the gunners were in position, the mech pilots were ready to board, and the logistics personnel checked the lines and energy sources. ”

After a slight pause, he said softly to Kerry: "Major Kerry, please go to the mecha warehouse and prepare for battle." ”

Kerry gave a military salute and said with a firm expression: "Your Highness Lux, please rest assured that your most loyal guards are ready to sacrifice for you at any time, and I will protect your safety with my life." ”

Seeing that Kerry said so firmly, Lux's heart softened, and he whispered with emotion: "Go!" Be sure to stay safe! ”

After watching Kerry walk out the door, Lux said to Ronko, "Your Excellency Diplomat, please go to the safe cabin and rest, if you are an elder like you who has made important contributions to our Huadu and the Solo family, I will not be able to explain to my father and the people in the slightest harm." ”

When Lang Ke heard what the princess said so emotionally, the old man burst into tears and said gratefully: "The old minister will definitely do his best for His Majesty and the people of Huadu, and he will die." ”

Sending off Lanco, Lux touched the white sè jade pendant hanging on her chest, and suddenly a warm current spread from her fingers to her whole body, and her heartstrings slowly relaxed.

Looking at Captain Miraya, who was still waiting for orders, Lux smiled and said, "Let's go to the wheelhouse, we can't find our way home in this ever-changing meteorite group without my guidance." ”

Miraya let out an "um" and followed Lux towards the cab. It turns out that the asteroid where the Huadu Kingdom is located is a wonderful place, surrounded by meteorites the size of a small mountain, and the asteroids are hidden in the meteorites and constantly change positions with the meteorites. Foreign ships can't find the specific location of Huadu Country at all, and once they take the wrong route, they will hit a meteorite, and the falling plane will be destroyed and killed. Only the Solo family has passed down the secret method of entering and exiting for generations.

At the age of thirteen, Lux began to take over the burden of escorting the procurement fleet in and out of the meteorite group from her father, and in the past eight years, she has accompanied the fleet to the country of Luoyun several times to purchase supplies. Growing up to be an excellent mecha warrior in the battle with interstellar pirates, she and her childhood friend Kerry won the title of ace pilot recognized by the whole universe and became the pride of Huadu, coupled with her noble background and beautiful appearance, she won the crown in the top ten most beautiful and famous princesses of the alliance held by Alliance Media Company.

Every time Lux arrives in Luoyun Country, it becomes a grand event for Luoyun, where countless princes and nobles, and children of wealthy families gather here to express their love or see the princess.

Sitting in the most zhōngyāng swivel chair in the cab, Lux watched the radar scan feedback on the large screen in the cab, and wondered why he became restless after hearing about the "Demon Dragon", and always felt that it was dangerous.

The scan information displayed on the large screen is not abnormal. Is it that after he and Kerry won the title of ace mecha, the fleet became famous, and no eyeless interstellar thief dared to come to fight the idea of a transport ship, and he hadn't fought for a long time and was a little nervous today.

Captain Miraya looked around the work of the pilots and said to Lux, who was staring at the big screen, "Her Royal Highness the princess's fleet is about to enter the meteorite group, and the captains of the ships request that all the command be handed over to you. ”

Lux said calmly: "Accept the request, now all the ships are at my disposal, lined up in a long snake formation, the 'Firebird' and the 'Eagle Three' are navigating in front, the 'Eagle One and Two' are covering in the rear, and the 'Hercules' is walking in the middle, and the whole team continues to maintain a fighting state."

After issuing the order, he said to the pilots in the wheelhouse: "Connect the main control computers of all ships and give orders in a unified manner." ”

More than a dozen crew members answered "yes" and were busy at their respective posts.

Two or three minutes later, Captain Miraya reported: "Your Highness, all the ships are ready, and the connection is normal and they are starting to enter the meteorite area." ”

Lux said "um", took off the jade pendant hanging around her neck, held it in her hand and gently chanted the spell given by her father, and a warm current flowed from Yin Tang to the jade pendant through her hands, and the jade pendant became brighter and brighter, and slowly floated up from her hand. When it floated to a foot high on Lux's chest, it suddenly turned into a white ball of light, and there were many points of light in the ball.

Although the crew in the cab and Miraya were still amazed that they had seen this miraculous phenomenon many times, they would never tell anyone about this scene out of curiosity, because they knew that it was a matter of survival for Huadu.

This ball of light guides them on their way home, which is a gift from God, a divine power to protect their loved ones, their homes.

Lux looked at the ball of light in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a little proud, although she was a little tired, she had created this miracle. This is the magic that only the legendary gods possess, and now they can use it at will.

The largest and brightest blue sè point of light in the ball is where the Huadu Kingdom is located, the dense red sè point of light is a meteorite that will kill people at any time, and the five small light spots that are a little blurry and dim are their own fleet, seeing that a meteorite is about to run into their own channel and may collide with the ship.

Lux was about to give the command to turn around, when suddenly the red light flashed on the radar display, and the main control computer sent out a jǐng report: "The enemy plane is approaching, the enemy plane is approaching" Lux only hesitated for a moment, and her years of experience made her immediately blurt out: "Turn the view of the monitor in front of the Firebird and order all the personnel to prepare for battle." The two crew members did their job skillfully, and the large screen showed the picture outside the ship. I saw two mecha with their unique shapes rushing over the meteorite towards the 'Firebird'.

The mecha on the left is completely black, about fifteen meters high, and the thrusters on the legs emit long flames, and the mecha has no thrusters on its back, but it is equipped with nine weapons that are more than ten meters long and twisted like a snake's head. The other mech, painted with fiery saffron patterns, held a laser stabbing rob, and the red flames emitted by the boosters on its back and legs were connected together, just like stretched wings.

Miraya looked at the big screen nervously and sighed: "It's not good! These two mechs are not regular mechs, and they are obviously made by famous artists, and they are not much worse than your 'Fire Angel' and Major Kerry's 'Thunder Lion'. ”

Lux nodded in agreement, and said to the officer sitting in front of the computer with the rank of second lieutenant on his shoulder, "Go to the database and check the information of these two mechs." ”

In order to prevent the use of some weapons and equipment such as nuclear weapons, the Human Mecha Federation stipulates that all mecha must be inspected before leaving the factory, and the relevant information of the mecha must be entered into the computer for all countries to query.

Prevent the two sides of the war from using prohibited weapons because they do not understand the condition of each other's mechs and suspect each other and cause unnecessary disasters. Whether it is a famous mecha with a special shape and special ability, or a conventional mecha with a unified system, as long as it is produced by a regular military factory, most of them have records that can be queried, and later even the information of many warships was entered into the computer, which gradually moved the war from chaos to standardization.

After a while, the officer found out the relevant information of the two mechas, and saw that there were some more red letters on the sides of the two mechas on the big screen: Hydra, the original carrier-based aircraft of the Magic Dragon Ship, jointly manufactured by AMA Company and Mickey Mecha Company. Weapons, the Nine Dragons Cannon can attack multiple targets and have super lethality against a single target, and can be equipped with a variety of melee weapons. Armor, phase transfer armor defense is extremely high. Leg thruster maneuver xìng can be average. In the year 180 of the cosmic calendar, it was lost in the AMA company repository along with the "Demon Dragon" battleship, and its whereabouts are unknown.

Fire Dragon God, the original carrier-based aircraft of the Demon Dragon Battleship, jointly manufactured by AMA Company and Mickey Mecha Company. Weapons: Flame God Spear, Armor: Magnesium Alloy Armor, Magnetic Energy Shield, Back Leg Dual Thruster Maneuver Xìng Superior Energy. Special skill, Wings of the Fire Dragon God, the wings can easily slice through the armor and cut the enemy to pieces with temperatures of thousands of degrees. In the year 180 of the cosmic calendar, it was lost in the storage of the AMA company along with the "Demon Dragon" battleship, and its whereabouts are unknown.

Seeing the information displayed on the screen, Lux and Miraya gasped at the same time, they were both young twenty years ago, but that war was the only attack on Huadu in hundreds of years, and the fear left by people is still so deep today, twenty years later.

In addition to the panic of the reappearance of the enemy twenty years ago, Lux's mind is more uneasy than the doubt about the time when the Dragon was stolen. 180 years is exactly twenty-one years ago, this group of people risked offending two of the largest companies in the world, is it just to attack a small Huadu country, what is Huadu worth it for them to get so much at such a cost?

Captain Miraya's voice next to him woke Lux from his contemplation: "Your Highness, those two mechs stopped in front of us and asked to speak to you. Lux immediately said, "Turn on the communication channel." ”

The image of two men appeared on the big screen, and the man with silver hair on the right said with evil spirit: "Hello, Your Royal Highness the Princess, I am the caliph of the owner of the 'Hydra', a prince of a dead country, you can call me a Caliph" As he spoke, he threw a wink at Lux, "The man next to me is the master of the 'Fire Dragon God', Hong Di, oh, he is not like you, I have a noble bloodline, him" The caliph was about to continue talking about his companion, but was interrupted by Hong Di, who had red hair and a cold face:" We have come this time to challenge the ace mechs of Huadu, to avenge our fleet for being plotted by you twenty years ago after accidentally straying into a meteorite swarm. ”

Lux was furious before he could finish hearing it, this is obviously a distortion of the facts, the meteorite area where Huadu is located has known that it is a forbidden land for hundreds of years, and no one can come out of it alive except for the fleet of Huadu Country that can enter and exit safely.

No one will be stupid enough to send them to death, unless they have bad intentions. He said coldly: "You are obviously provocative, we have four warships and dozens of mechas, there is no need to accept your challenge, you better get out of the way quickly, so as not to lose your life, if you want to challenge, you must be accompanied." ”

The silver-haired caliph laughed and said, "Your Highness is smart enough to spot our weaknesses, but I think Your Highness will grant my request." As a mecha warrior, it is very shameful to deceive more and avoid challenges, but I am afraid that it will cause a lot of damage to His Highness's reputation. Besides, if the scuffle starts, the time is delayed, and the cargo ship hits the meteorite, and the loss is even greater. ”

Lux hated the silver-haired guy to death, but she couldn't do anything about it, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I promise your challenge." ”

The Caliph laughed when he heard Lax accept the challenge, "We use a fair way of one-on-one, but in order to save your Highness's time, we will compete with two mechs. If we win, I'm sorry to ask you to leave all the goods behind. ”

When Luxus heard that the caliph had not been defeated, he said angrily: "What if you are defeated? The caliph shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "It's up to the princess." ”

The more Captain Miraya listened there, the more anxious he became, and was about to say something to stop him, but Lux said first, "Captain Miraya, there is no other way. There is a meteorite that will soon pass by where we are now. For the sake of the fleet's safety and the reputation of Huadu, I must fight. After a slight pause, Lux continued, "Captain Miraya listens. Miraya hurriedly straightened up and said, "Yes," you will take over my command during my absence. After speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the floating ball of light, which reverted to the shape of a jade pendant, and Lux hung the pendant around his neck while running towards the mecha warehouse.
