The transport plane had just arrived in the Hubelion's cabin, and the huge steel battleship had just closed its hatch, and the efficient fleet of death had once again locked onto the Hubelion's position and leaped over again.

But this time, all the troops have returned, and even the diazine has been collected a lot, so what does it mean to stay here and entangle with the Death Fleet.

A long-distance space turn, directly getting rid of the pursuit of the Death Fleet.

Half a day later.

"Sir, we've confirmed that we've completely escaped the Death Fleet's attack, and we're safe for the time being." Matt stood straight in front of Jim and reported, "But our battlecruisers were badly damaged in the battle with the Death Fleet, and the torn exterior armor will most likely not survive the next battle. ”

"This is terrible...."

Jim knew that the Astral ships were powerful and indestructible, and although the Hyperion had completed the brilliant record of destroying one Astral Spirit ship and damaging two in one dozen and four under Matt's excellent command, the Hyperion itself was badly damaged...... This is a record that even most flagships in active service struggle to achieve, let alone a flagship that has gone through a lot of combat but has not been properly maintained.

Money! Lots of money! At the very least, you can make a minor repair to the Hyperion and cover up the money for the badly damaged external armor!

Jim brings up the communication with Tosh, and soon, Tosh connects.

"Ah, Mr. Renault. The diazine you collect is very pure and massive. It's been a pleasure working with you. The white-eyed Tosh said expressionlessly in the channel, but his tone did reveal joy.

"Let's not talk about cooperation or not. Let's talk about the remuneration - the Hyperion was badly wounded in battle with the Death Fleet and now needs a lot of money to repair. I ask you now, when will the remuneration arrive? ”

"Ah, given the quantity and quality of the razine you've collected, I've decided to give you more." Tosh said, "The money is now in your account, please sign for it,"

So fast?

Jim had a bitter look on his face, and then quietly clicked on his account - an account that usually has only one zero is now more than one zero. In front of a large string of zeros, there is also an Arabic numeral [1].

Hiss!

That's right, and a lot more, Jim said sorry, turned off the communication with Tosh, and clicked on the communication with the armory Lory Swan.

Unexpectedly, Swan's communication was opened at one point.

"Hey! Mr. Cowboy! Swan, who was waiting for Jim to contact him, looked furious: "The Hyperion has been badly damaged, do you have the money to repair it this time?" ”

Swan, who was short of money to build and repair equipment every day, was furious when he saw the current appearance of the Huberian, and if Jim said that he had no money, then the repair of the Huberian was certain, but it was inevitable that the equipment repair of the ground forces and even the equipment repair of the Air Force would be sacrificed.

"A little." Jim was an amateur at all when it came to ship repair, so he could only weakly report the numbers he had just gotten.

"Tossing this precious ship like this, so I can get some decent reward......

Rory Swan was muttering, but his unique loud voice made his muttering reach Jim's ears.

It seems that the money is enough.

"Hey! Top dog! Swan said, "I've heard that Yumoyan's side has developed a new type of armor for warships, which can withstand the attacks of both the Star Spirit and the Worms, and even the attacks of our human warships can withstand a lot of ...... Mr. Cowboy doesn't think about upgrading? ”

Great, upgrading the ship's armor, it looks like it's going to cost a lot of money.

"Tell me the truth, Swan." Jim said, "How much does it cost?" ”

"Just enough money."

With a single mouth, Swan took away the money he had earned from the Hubelion in full battle, almost burning up.

Jim's face flushed for a moment, then quickly faded again.

"You know, Swan, the Rangers have limited funds, and they can't all be left on the side of the armory......" said Jim, who tried to convince Swan to give up such an unrealistic idea, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Tykes was looking for him.

"Alright, Chief Engineer, maybe you'll need to talk to the captain." Jim immediately gave way and gave Matt Horner, who was in command of the ship, and Rory Swan, who was in charge of repairing it, engaged in one-on-one combat.

It's going to be a bloody storm.

Jim, who had left the bridge, was relieved and strode towards the bar.

——————————————————

What is the most overcrowded place after a difficult battle with a heart ready to die at any time?

Bars, of course.

Nerve-soothing alcohol is only available here, and the rule that alcohol is not allowed anywhere outside the bar has catalyzed the boom in bars.

Cooper, who was in charge of getting the wine, naturally worked hard, but after countless battles, he was also used to the busyness of the Rangers after completing their mission.

Soon, Jim found the old lad Tykes in the crowd, and Tykes, who was usually so domineering that no one would want to share a table with him, was now surrounded by people. This also reflects the Rangers' need to soothe their nerves after high-intensity combat.

Jim tapped on Tykes' battle armor, and the sound of metal knocking reached Tykes' ears, and a slightly drunken Tykes spotted Jim - he had drunk the alcohol from his glass in one gulp before pulling his brother away.

In a corner far from the bar, no one.

"Man, I got in touch with the nerds at the Mobius Foundation. They know that we have an artifact in our hands now. ”

A drunken Tykes said, spurting out a slight frown from Jim.

"Oh? What do they say? ”

"They paid a lot of money, but said that the Empire has been spying on them lately, so they have not been able to take the artifact from us recently. Of course, they also hope that we can help them when they find the artifact whereabouts. ”

Pretty penny?

In the last hour, Jim was about to get angry with the money problem, so Jim was slightly interested in the money that Tykis said.

"I'll let them send the money directly to your account, and I won't handle it."

Tykes knew that Jim had a lot of people under him, even though he was hungry for money. But in front of the brothers, he chose to retreat.

Tykes staggered away, and Jim clicked on the account again - wait! Why are there two more zeros?

Tosh had just paid himself enough, and he had even overspent. And now the Mobius Foundation, which has deep pockets, has suddenly paid a hundred times more than Tosh's compensation......

Jim looked at Tykes' back staggering away, with mixed tastes.
