Chapter 319: Kerna under construction

The Marquis of Odegar had only rushed back to the city of Kerna yesterday, and he had only hastily dealt with his injuries, and then hurried to the lowest level of the shipyard.

He stood behind the porthole, looking at the trial No. 24 that was still being repaired below, his face was full of sadness, and his heart was gloomy.

He suddenly felt like he was watching his beloved little wife who was seriously injured and dying because of a car accident and had to be pushed into the ICU for rescue. I couldn't do anything but wait at the door like an ant on a hot pot.

What's more, it's yourself who drives.

"Don't worry, although we are small here, we are still very well equipped. The only thing that can't be dealt with is the outer armor, this special Emerald alloy armor can only be replaced when it returns to the empire itself. The rest of the injuries are not a big problem, and they will be in good condition in three days at most. The Marquis was comforted by the manager of the city of Kerna and the shipyard.

Hearing this, the mood of the Marquis of Odegar relaxed a little.

"Isn't it better for you to deal with your injuries first, your Excellency?" The other party said again.

"It's okay, this neurotoxin only affects me for three or two days." The Marquis shook his head expressionlessly.

The other party is an ordinary person, and he doesn't know much about psionic people, and since the marquis has said so, he won't persuade anymore.

In fact, although Odegar's face was calm, he was gritting his teeth in his heart. The shamelessness of the earthlings was really beyond his imagination, and he actually used corrosive gas bombs in the battle that took place in the home of civilized countries.

In order to protect the officers and soldiers on the ship, he rushed directly to the scene and unfurled the holy shield barrier, until the damage management team and the fire brigade were busy for a while, and finally repaired the damage on the ship's hull.

Activating high-intensity psionic combat skills for a long time has caused him a considerable burden. Although the alloy corrosive toxin was blocked in the outermost isolation chamber by him with psionic skills, the subtle neurotoxin still penetrated in the moment when the isolation hatch was completely closed, poisoning several soldiers on the spot, and even himself was hit.

This kind of shameless weapon, the earthlings can't make it, it must have been imported from the alliance profiteers!

Fortunately, after all, he is also a "squire officer" of the third ring, and this little injury will not really poison himself.

In addition, if you think about it carefully, the Marquis of Odegar is also relieved about what the earthlings are doing.

Since he didn't regard the other party as a community navy, the other side of the earth naturally wouldn't regard himself as an empire. Since it is an encounter between "pirates", it is natural to do everything.

In comparison, the opponent's tactics are flexible and decisive, which is still very admirable. If possible, he would even want to get to know the other party's commander, and even have a good conversation. The Marquis of Odegarh has sent a war report to the mainland of the empire, hoping to get intelligence support from the mainland. The most important thing is to know who the opposing commander is.

Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing to not even know who he lost to.

It's just that the communication interference inside the Far Shore Nebula is too serious, and the signal of the essentia wave is extremely weak. It is estimated that it will be a week later when the empire receives the news.

“…… Instead, we thought about building a cascade relay tower in the nearby galaxy. However, as you know, your Excellency, this kind of facility requires a lot of zero elements. In terms of cost and strategic value, it may still be on top of the fortress we are in. The Prime Minister's Office and the Privy Council have been arguing for almost ten years over the construction of the city of Kerna. If I want to build a signal tower, I will definitely be shot on the spot by the Minister of Finance. The person in charge said again.

This is an Anmang man dressed in civilian clothes, and his name is Monte Tadan. He also has the dark red body hair characteristic of this group, but now it has taken on a not too healthy brownish yellow, which is a sign of age.

His real identity is actually Vice Admiral of the Imperial Navy, and he once served as Deputy Director of the Imperial Shipping Administration.

As a non-human, and with no aristocratic background, he has mixed up such a position in the empire of human supremacy, and now he is responsible for managing the construction and operation of a large space station, which objectively proves his ability.

In fact, even the Marquis of Odegar could not have imagined that the Anmang general had not only built this space city, but also exceeded the task - he had actually built a shipyard behind the gap in the nebula.

“…… However, the cost of building a shipyard here is too high, right? Pirates can't afford to buy a good ship. With them alone, it is estimated that they will not be able to recover the cost of restoration until the day when the shipyard is scrapped. ”

"This is the suggestion of His Royal Highness King Willant and His Royal Highness King Dendor. Don't worry, the two highnesses there have a lot of money, and they didn't think about taking it back. But as long as they can prove that they can build warships in such an extreme environment, they can prove that their ideas are correct. ”

Seeing that the marquis was a little curious, Lieutenant General Tadan explained carefully: The Feilong Shipyard under the Danduo royal family is the third largest shipyard in the empire, and it has always been known for its brains and new technologies. Engineers at their shipyard have developed a new mobile front-line dock technology to see if they can build a warship under extreme celestial conditions. In this way, in future wars, the Empire may be able to slap a violent point in the face of the enemy.

“…… I can understand the ship, but what about the crew? The Marquis was still incomprehensible.

A mobile dock may be able to build ships on the face of the enemy, but it can't always build a crew, right? But there are not enough manpower, and no matter how good the battleship is, it is meaningless, so why talk about slapping the enemy's face?

"It's not clear to the next official, probably His Royal Highness King Wei has other considerations. But anyway, since new technologies have come out, they always have to try. ”

But it's a bit too exaggerated. The Marquis of Odegarh looked at a dock beside him, where a behemoth was parked, surrounded by various shelters, and knew at a glance that it was a majestic ship. In terms of size, it is even a whole circle bigger than his little wife, who is still overhauling.

If you look closely, the main structure of the ship has been completed, and all that remains is finishing and installation work

"I know your shipyard has repaired the pirates here and built some small boats...... But this thing is really exaggerated. ”

"We really can only build a few small boats, at least that's what almost all the pirates in the Far Shore Nebula think. This dock is located on the minus thirteenth floor of the city of Kerna and does not get much choice. Lieutenant General Ta Dan said: "This is also His Royal Highness Weiwang's support for you!" He is very appreciative of your strategy behind enemy lines. If one day in the future, you will need to use your tactics, and you will be more confident with such a mobile dock technology. ”

The Marquis of Odegar sighed inwardly. He knew that Lieutenant General Tadan was a close confidant of King Willant, and although he was not an official retainer, it was precisely because of this that he could become an ally of His Royal Highness the Elected Emperor in the army.

He actually didn't like King Wei. Although normal people think that His Royal Highness is definitely a graceful and gentle gentleman, the Marquis of Odegar always feels that His Royal Highness the General Election Emperor is too heavy and gloomy, and his gestures are full of a kind of yin and yang exaggeration and hypocrisy. But at this time, he had to admit his love.

The marquis suddenly felt a little awkward, so he changed the topic slightly stiffly: "Speaking of which, when I first entered the port, I heard that this place is haunted?" ”

Tadan was slightly stunned: "You are actually interested in this kind of rumor?" ”

“…… Isn't it reasonable that I'm a psyker anyway, and I'm interested in mysterious rumors? ”

Angmang couldn't help but smile and said, "It's been nearly five years since this space city began to operate. Being in such a remote deep space, and all the visitors are outlaws, there are always all kinds of strange rumors. For example, there is an information port that automatically plays the Triumphal Ode, an exokinetic skeleton that can do broadcast gymnastics, a statue of Evuna the Great that shoots lasers, and a 12th staircase that leads to the D8 section of the Abyss...... One more goblin, it's not a big deal. Left and right are just the vendetta of these pirates. In the city of Kerna, as long as they do not make a big fuss and do not disrupt the overall construction progress of the fortress, as long as they pay the entrance tax, they can go. ”

The Marquis of Odegar still felt that this haunted incident should not be so simple. Perhaps this is the instinct of a psyker. When this happens, if you still have some free time, it is still necessary to investigate.

He was about to say something more when the phone rang on General Anman's terminal.

Tadan did not evade, but directly opened the information terminal in front of the marquis, and immediately jumped out of the portrait of an imperial officer.

"Your Excellency the Marquis, General!" After the officer saluted, he quickly reported: "Moda Pirate Regiment, fiasco in the CW46 system!" Moda himself has been killed in battle. ”

The Marquis and the General looked at each other for a moment, and both showed unsurprising expressions.

"One of the key cadres of the pirate group, Aston Beer, is retreating in the Dark Abomination and has entered the system."

The Dark Abomination, the ship's top-heavy flagship with too many guns, was also converted at this shipyard. General Tadan also felt that if the ship really came to fire a salvo of its main guns, the hull would definitely fall apart. It's just that Party A's requirements must be met, so it's hard to say anything.

Unexpectedly, such a thin-skinned stuffing could survive to the end on the battlefield, which made the general of the Anmang a little surprised.

"Beel reports that the enemy fleet is still in pursuit and is about to enter the system, alerting us to be on guard. In addition, he himself hopes to be able to take refuge and repair in the port. ”

The marquis frowned slightly, looked at the general, but saw that the latter only thought for a moment, so he said, "Let them enter the harbor." Keep the emergency team and medical team on standby. ”
