Chapter 248: Meeting with the Military
The meeting with the military was three days ago.
The meeting itself was actually an accident, as it happened that a Navy frigate of the sixth rank passed by Cape Ica, which was quite close to here. And Su Changfeng happened to have his subordinates on that boat, and the leader of the group was someone he knew.
It was the young officer who had a relationship with the traveler at that time, named Zhang Tianmi.
During the meeting, the other party looked him up and down with a cold face, as if he was looking at some rare animal. Fang Yu could roughly guess the reason, it must be because of the other party's task at the Traveler's Rest at that time, because he couldn't complete it.
In front of the other party and Su Changfeng, he once again stated everything that happened in Idus. Of course, the military was still concerned about the movements of the Ryonists, and as for the secrets of a hundred years ago, it can be seen that they had some concern for the politics of Kaulin-Ishurian.
But he also has an attitude of not intervening too much-
However, when it came to wanderers, Su Changfeng was obviously a little concerned.
"He's telling you that Earth isn't a safe haven either?"
"Did he say that?"
"If I'm not mistaken......"
"Then you can't be mistaken," Su Changfeng said very seriously, "You have to remember." Ed, you know, it's a big deal. ”
For the sake of secrecy, the other party also called him Ed just like everyone else. And when he joined Xingmen Port, he actually had a code name, but he rarely used it-
Fang Yu nodded, he understood what this meant. He thought for a moment before he replied, "He did say that, but I can't tell if it's just a simple threat, or if it's something else?" The problem is, the other party is a person who is very deep in the city, and I am afraid that he is deliberately misleading-"
"Is this your analysis?"
"Here's my analysis."
There is some truth to it, but don't disbelieve it completely. After all, you can't rule out that the other party is playing a trick of truth and falsehood. ”
"I understand that."
"Also."
"Also?"
Fang Yu hesitated and asked, "What about the incident that Mr. Karatu mentioned?" ”
Su Changfeng groaned slightly: "You mean 'Evil Star'?" ”
"Yes."
"There are a lot of rumors about this." Su Changfeng obviously organized the language: "Xingmen Port is also collecting relevant intelligence from all aspects and comparing it. But so far, we have some information, but for non-disclosure - I can only tell you part of it. ”
Fang Yu looked at each other, and the military's frankness was somewhat unexpected. Although he said it, he could only tell him part of it, but saying it openly like this at least made it acceptable to him.
In fact, if the Jeffrey Redcoats had told the Dawnstar Ruins that there was a dead dead zone in the center, with what he knew about Miss Scarpe and Mr. Quelod, the two might not have backed down. And the descendants of Flor should not be inferior to those two dollars, and even the remuneration of the mercenaries should be deducted.
And he can probably think of the reason, it's just that the other party didn't put the Dawn Star in his eyes at all-
In comparison, Su Changfeng's honesty gave him a little sense of belonging.
He waited for the other party's next step.
Only then did Su Changfeng reply: "We know about Aitalia, first of all, to assess what kind of impact it can have on us. As soldiers, we naturally look at problems differently from ordinary drafters, who represent the pioneering and enterprising side of the new world, but we are a bottom line. ”
"The bottom line?"
Fang Yu was a little puzzled.
"The bottom line is two-fold."
"On the one hand, we are guarding the bottom line of our civilization, the core of civilization is development rather than conflict, if we want to go back to the era of cannibalism, we don't need to develop such a brilliant culture, right?"
Fang Yu nodded.
But when faced with a strange world, suspicion and ignorance can easily make us classify each other as different. When we artificially characterize one side as an outlier, we are actually removing our own moral burden, and even in the conflict before the Age of Stargate, we adhered to such a bottom line. ”
"There have been extensive discussions among the nations of the planet, and it has been proven that we should decide which path we should take – a decision not made by China alone, or by any country on the planet. It is a common decision of all humankind, between conflict and civilizational tolerance — we have chosen the latter. ”
"It's the proudest thing of our time, and I've had the privilege of going through it. And you, Eddard, may not have witnessed that glorious era, but you are following its path. Like so many of our forerunners, this is our pride as human beings. ”
And the more so, the more we should remember. Today's peace is not easy to come by, and the significance of the military is not in the moment of starting a war, but in the era of peace. ”
Su Changfeng paused: "I said that, Ed, can you understand?" ”
Fang Yu nodded again.
"This is the first bottom line," Su Changfeng continued: "This is also the reason why we are targeting the Dragon Worship Sect. ”
"The second bottom line is the bottom line of the safety of the planet. Our generation, and the generation before us, opened the Star Gate Age, on the one hand, it opened a vast door to an unknown high-dimensional world for mankind, and mankind has never stopped exploring in the face of the truth of the universe. ”
"But on the one hand, we also have to understand. The decisions people make at the beginning may not be perfect. While ushering in a new era, we are also opening a Pandora's box. All sorts of difficulties that we may never have faced before will emerge from them. ”
"Of course, humanity is still quite young relative to the age of this universe. But we weren't so naïve as to be completely unprepared, in fact we were ready the moment we opened it—even decades before we opened it. ”
"These plans were discussed in a joint framework, and you should have studied the history of that era."
Fang Yu bowed his head slightly.
About the Stargate Age, about the history before the Stargate Age, that is a compulsory course in modern history. How did countries come out of the controversy, how did they balance the interests and responsibilities of large and small countries, and how did they answer the different voices one by one?
In the end, under the common witness of all mankind, that crucial step was taken.
Ninety-seven years ago, nearly a century ago, today's Stargate's first space station segment – carried by the Explorer 1 heavy-lift launch vehicle – went into far-earth orbit.
And after that, of course, it was a magnificent history. Three generations. It was only after the grandchildren of the first generation of builders grew up that people first set foot in the world behind the Star Gate, but for nearly two decades after that, exploring the Star Gate was a matter that had nothing to do with ordinary people.
Until the signing of the Stargate Declaration.
Everything today seems to have come here step by step.
"Among the plans left behind at that time, there were plans for the worst."
"If the stargate is a two-way street, there is a higher level of civilization behind it, and there is no ill will towards the earth, how should we respond? Xingmen Port exists for this plan. Therefore, the first pioneers who arrived at the stargate at that time, in addition to scientists, were almost all space forces of various countries. ”
"And the establishment of Xingmen Port, from that time to the present, its original intention has not changed."
"So."
"The first thing we need to determine about what the 'scourge is' is how it affects us."
"If it does happen, what will happen to Earth?"
"But let's assume that the worst really happens—"
"Ed, anxiety can't change anything," Su Changfeng replied, "We have come to this point, and it is already a luxury to retreat. However, we will not hope that everything will not happen, and if the impact of the 'Scourge Star' event is expanded to immeasurable, then Xingmen Port will definitely deal with it accordingly. ”
"You just have to understand that, and what you see, we will see as well. What you go through, we will go through because we are all human beings. Whatever could have been avoided or avoided, but when humanity took that step a century ago—"
"Today, you and I are destined to share this responsibility."
"And as a soldier, I can only answer you that we will not easily live up to the responsibilities behind us."
"—do you understand what I mean?"
Fang Yu nodded.
Although he didn't fully understand it in his heart.
However, Su Changfeng's words at least relieved him.
The history of Stargate has come to this point, and it is not a decision of him, nor is it a decision of a certain person. There is no such thing as perfection in this world, and when one choice is made, it is natural to lose another direction. Questioning what the 'scourge star' will bring to the earth? How similar is this to asking why people took this step back then?
There is no either/or choice in this world, one path is wrong, and the other path may not be all right. Even if both paths are dead ends, it is entirely possible. So questioning itself doesn't make sense, and of course the skeptic doesn't care.
It is conceivable that even if we hadn't taken this step back then, there would still be a lot of people asking today – are we missing out on more?
But there is no right or wrong way to the road itself -
The 'Scourge Star' is there, and it doesn't change because of anyone's doubts.
Fang Yu took a breath and roughly had a direction. Instead of doubting, it is better to let it go, because his own decision is one of the decisions of thousands of human beings. And these thousands of wills eventually wrote the history of the third planet of the solar system.
Everyone will be with him and will have to face it with him.
Of course, if the problem can be solved satisfactorily, that is the best.
But he thought about it for a while, and finally didn't tell the other party that he had the Helin Crown. The other party may already know, after all, the matter of the elven ruins is almost known to everyone at this moment, and the Hailin crown is nothing more than in his hands—or in Miya's hands.
Of course, people may not think that there will be such a situation as one and a half people.
However, since Su Changfeng didn't ask, he also maintained a tacit understanding. After Karatu told him those facts, the Hailin crown became a hole card in his hand, and there were people like Su Changfeng in this world. But there are also descendants of Flor, and there are super athletic leagues.
There are also people like wanderers and Pudra.
After experiencing the battle of the elven ruins, he no longer simply believes that there is only goodwill and beauty in this world. But there is also an ugly and shadowy side, and at a critical time, he hopes that the righteous side can make more noise, at least not so that the events of Covenant Hill will not be repeated again and again.
Especially when the star of calamity is imminent.
His strength alone may not be great, but at critical moments, he can always make his side make a little more noise.
The talks with the military ended in a few pages of reports. Captain Zhang brought him three powerful angels - a little support from the military, although it was not much, but it really helped a lot. Since the battle with the Wanderers, almost none of the main battle structures around him have fallen into good ones.
Orfen's twin stars have not been repaired yet.
With these three energy angels, it can be regarded as solving his urgent need.
However, after the battle of Idus, due to the update of the Calamity Star Incident, his level has loosened again, and he has crossed the twenty-second level mark and leaned towards the twenty-third level. After that, as soon as these two levels passed, he announced the end of the long rookie stage.
Once he crossed the twenty-fifth level, he was a veteran Drafter.
Speaking of which, this period of time is actually not very long.
It's only been a year.
Compared to the top geniuses of the first-tier guilds, this speed can be regarded as outstanding. Even Sophie is far inferior to him in this regard.
Of course, all of this is due to a mistake. The main thing is the quest line of the Dragon Witch, which was completed by him alone, almost by coincidence. At best, it's just the rest of the Seven Seas Brigade.
And such a huge event line, in the past, at least a big guild poured out. For example, against an opponent like a wanderer, the top ten guilds alone may not be the opponent of the other party.
Fortunately, every time, he was lucky to have a reliable aboriginal to help.
Doriffin has Ms. Misu from time to time, and there is Dicht.
Later, in the underground of Fenris, there was a lizard prince, and even the military intervened.
In Van Rik, if Anrother is not there, I am afraid it will be a different result. And this time, it's all thanks to Caratu and Donde, and even Miss Eve.
However, this kind of good luck will not last long, Fang Yu knows that in the end, he still has to rely on himself. Fortunately, the Dragon Witch incident has come to an end, and in the end, although the wanderer escaped, he would not come to trouble him after seeing the other party's tone for a while.
The murderer of Miss Atila's brother was almost revealed after this battle, and it was only a long process of chasing the murderer. And with their current strength, they won't be in trouble with the wanderers.
And Caratu and Donde, although they said a lot of things to him.
But some of those things were about ancient prophecies and holy relics. Some are about the movements of the major forces in this world, and for a while, they have nothing to do with him.
Now he seems to be really transparent, and there is nothing at hand for him to do—nothing more than to build his own ship.
And when the Seven Seas Traveler is completed, he believes it will be a different story.
But although it's transparent, it seems that some people don't want to make him really transparent-
Mr. Limestone crossed the Istanian Desert diagonally, and after crossing the Oasis of Corner on the evening of the third day, he officially entered the Cape Ica region. This is already the westernmost edge of the entire Kaurin-Ishurian continent. Further south, beyond the Misty Fjord, is the homeland of the Lizardmen.
Nognes.
The goal of their group was to stop at the Misty Fjords in the south after passing through Tansnir, the largest port in Istania.
And there, the final work is done.
But on this day, when Mr. Greystone arrives in the vicinity of Tansnir, Sophie sends a message to him about something.
It was roughly about the battle of the Descendants of Flor at Idus not long ago. It was only later that he learned that the soul of the dragon king Lifgard had sunk a ship in the end—it seemed that the dark dragon king was not as hostile to the descendants of Flor as he was to stop his hatred for his unblocking.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or something else.
However, what Sophie said had nothing to do with the loss of the descendants of Flor - a huge force, a mere floating ship, could still afford to lose. In addition, in the war between the Descendants of Flor and the Rainbow Alliance, there are rumors of heavy losses every year.
I haven't seen a year when my vitality has really been damaged.
Her Royal Highness was talking about his relationship with the descendants of Flor.
Fang Plover jumped off Mr. Limestone's platform, stepping on the sand one foot deep and one foot shallow.
The desert heat is hot during the day, and the only remaining moisture under the shrubs curls upwards in the direct sunlight, like a curved space. The soft sand and gravel rolled up in the boot shaft, almost like it was immersed in hot water, and it was really miserable.
Luo Hao took off his boots and turned them upside down, and the yellow sand inside flowed out like a waterfall. Yes, though the desert of Istania is again covered with a sea of silver sand, that is only to describe its magnificence in the moonlight. But in fact, in the daytime, it is still an endless stretch of yellow sand.
As soon as the two of them came from Mr. Limestone's platform, they felt the not very cordial greeting of this sea of sand.
Sophie squinted at all this through the video before she said:
"You know what?"
"What happened to you in Van Rik has completely shut down the domestic Super Athletic League."
"Now that the major guilds know about this, the descendants of Flor are no exception, after all, they have to figure out who has taken them out of activity for a few months."
Fang Yu was in a cold sweat when he heard this, he didn't care about the descendants of Flor, but if he became the public enemy of the domestic guild because of this, wouldn't it be too much to lose. You know, the military is acting behind this, and he is purely a black pot.
“…… Didn't I offend you Silver Vislan too? ”
"Not really."
When Sophie heard this, she smiled narrowly.
……
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
