Volume 1 The Encounter of Fate Chapter 54 The Great War is Coming

The rip-off continues, but the situation on Haven is getting worse and worse.

Before dawn, the morning star was called out from Quinn's arms by Bai Dayyi. Accompanying Bai Yi to climb the outermost city wall, Morning Star suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis. Through the telescopes on the city walls, the morning star could see shadows in the trees in the distance. From the infrared images, it can be basically judged that these shadows are all alien insects, including jumping insects, sickle cockroaches, and even a few stinging snakes. The bad news doesn't stop there, in the photo that Daytime Yi gave to Morning Star, the figures of two wyverns leap out of it. This sent a chill down the spine of Morningstar, these Wyverns must have only recently joined the Insect Force, and if their rescue operation was a few days late, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Quinn also got up and walked to the top of the city wall shortly after Morningstar's departure, and saw the dragon in the photo, and his slender eyebrows were furrowed. It may well not even the Morning Star knows, but Quinn knows what these two Wyverns mean. Unlike jumping insects and sickle cockroaches, Wyverns are considered to be mid-to-upper combat power in the alien insect group, and their flexible flight ability allows them to play a strange role in the alien troops, and the appearance of the wyvern means that there is already a formed insect nest on Haven Star. The formed insect nest needs a lot of energy support, and the energy needed by the insect swarm is the energy crystal. Haven is a habitable planet in the eyes of humans, but that's only for humans. For the swarm, Havenstar is not an ideal breeding place. Quinn once learned from the mouth of Commander Baishi that the existence of energy crystals has not been found on the entire Haven Star, and the inhabitants of the planet still use the most primitive energy to live, and only a few nobles and officials have come into contact with energy crystals. But how did the formed hive evolve with those energy sources?

After explaining his confusion to Morningstar, Quinn left the city wall. The accident last time made Quinn very concerned about Norin Hill's safety, and leaving this meeting made her a little uneasy, and hurriedly rushed back to the resting place.

Morning Star and Bai Dayyi observed the city wall for a long time, and the insect troops in the distance seemed to be gathering their forces and preparing to launch a fierce attack. Bai Yi was extremely nervous now, the number of insects observed from the telescope had exceeded any previous insect attack, and it was even more difficult to estimate the number of troops in the assembly. In the face of such a large number of insect swarms, it is really an unimaginable question whether this shelter can hold on. And Morning Star is different from Bai Yi, in the face of the upcoming battle, Morning Star will not pay too much attention, do his best, and just obey the destiny of heaven, but he is more concerned about the hive formed on Haven Star that Quinn just said.

Bidding farewell to Bai Yiyi, Morning Star walked straight to Shiraishi's command room. At the conference table, Morningstar met with Commander Shiraishi and several of the previous combat staff officers, who had learned of the regrouping of the insects and were now responding to them. Morning Star directly interrupted the meeting of several people, came to Bai Shi's side and asked very seriously: "Old man, let me ask you one thing, is there anything on Haiwen Star that I don't know, for example, energy crystals?" ”

Shiraishi looked puzzled, he didn't look contrived in the slightest, he didn't understand why Morning Star would ask such a question. Seeing Shiraishi's expression, Morning Star was basically certain that the old man really didn't know about these things and didn't have time to explain more, so Morning Star asked Shiraishi to contact the top of the Third Fleet for him. And Shiraishi also did it directly out of trust in Morning Star.

In the video, Morningstar meets with Third Fleet Commander Kent. Kent, who was still sleepy-eyed, made Morningstar angry, and the tone of his mouth was extremely unfriendly.

"Are you hiding something from me, and you are also hiding it from Bai Lao." Morningstar asked straight to the point.

Kent didn't feel any dissatisfaction because of Morningstar's tone, but because of Morningstar's question, he was much more energetic, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Morning Star was not in the mood to beat around the bush with him at this time, and said directly: "I have reliable information, the alien insect group on Haiwen Star has already formed a worm nest, you don't understand what this means, right?" ”

Kent was a little surprised, as the commander of the Third Fleet, he had far more information than the others. Morningstar's hive means that there will be many high-level insect classes joining the battlefield, which is definitely not good news for human troops, Kent's tone trembled a little, and asked, "To what extent." ”

Morningstar threw the picture that Bai Yi had given him on the table, and Kent's face changed dramatically after reading it, and he knew very well what the Wyvern represented. After all, the shelter on Haiwen Star was built temporarily, and even if it had air defense capabilities, it was extremely weak. There are only two wyverns in this photo, but it can show that the formed insect nest mentioned in Morning Star's hand does exist, so as long as there is enough time, a mighty army of wyverns is not a utopian dream, and it is simply a catastrophe for human beings.

Seeing that he must have been stunned and looked at the photo in a daze, Morning Star was furious for a while, pointed at Affirmation and said directly: "Why are you still pretending to be confused here!" The key question now is this? Are these two wyverns? According to the information provided by your alliance, there is no existence of energy crystals on Haiwen Star! Now you tell me, without energy crystals, how did these two wyverns come about? Were the insects transported by space? ”

Kent was scolded by Morning Star for being clueless, and he also felt very aggrieved, and the information he had was indeed only these, did the kid of this republic think that he was hiding any important information? After all, Kent is a person who is already in a high position, and his cultivation has really reached a certain height, and there are no mood swings, Kent said: "I really don't know about this matter, I need to get in touch with the top, please don't be impatient." ”

It was as if a punch had hit the air, and the other party didn't do much, but it shook the morning star enough. Angrily turning off the monitor, Morningstar sat down at the conference table. Bai Shi walked to Morning Star and sat down, looked at the puffed Morning Star, and comforted: "I know you have a feeling of being deceived, but I can vouch for it with my personality, and our Third Fleet has not hidden anything from you in this matter." ”

Morningstar looked up at Shiraishi, the white hair on his temples and the wrinkles on his face made Morningstar instantly dispel his suspicions about the Third Fleet.

Stepping out of the command room, Morningstar returned to his room, where Quinn and Norin Hill had both woken up and were sitting at the head of their bed, unaware of what they were discussing.

Seeing Morningstar return, Quinn got up and sat down on the couch with him and asked, "Is there a result?" ”

Morningstar shook his head, then put his hands in his hair, and looked down in serious thought. After a long time, Morningstar finally raised his head and asked, "Quinn, with our current strength, how likely is it that we will be able to hold the survivors in the shelter?" ”

Quinn shook his head and said: "It's impossible, if the insects have enough energy, the strength is endless, let alone keep them, if the insects attack us, I can only exhaust my physical strength and die in the left rear." ”

Norin Hill also walked to Morningstar's side at this moment, and the little bird sat down on the other side like a human, staring directly at Morningstar with big shining eyes, as if to show his determination to live and die with him.

Morningstar touched Norin Hill's ears again, and he read the message from those big eyes. With endless apologies in his tone, Morningstar said, "Quinn, you may need to join me on an adventure again, and I feel that we urgently need to find out the location of the main nest of insects and their sources of power, as well as our previous suspicions about what has severed your connection with these insects. ”

Quinn felt the apology in Morningstar's tone, and she understood where Morningstar's apology came from. Moving closer to the Morning Star, Quinn said, "For the rest of my life, I'm not just talking about it, my king. ”

Morningstar remembers this sentence, when he first met Quinn, Morningstar was still naΓ―ve that Quinn thought it was the sister next door, and now that he thinks about it, he really doubts his eyesight. hugged Quinn tightly, no need for extra words.

The warmth was interrupted by a hurried knock outside the door, and Morningstar got up to open the door, only to find that it was Shiraishi himself. Without waiting for Morning Star to greet Shiraishi, the latter spoke: "Kent has already verified with the higher-ups that there is indeed no energy crystal reserve on Haiwen Star. If the official reserve is not available, then even if it is privately owned, there will not be enough energy to support the growth of the hive. ”

"Is the message true?" Morningstar asked.

Shiraishi once again used his personality to ensure that at such a moment of life and death, even the politicians of the alliance would not do such a crazy act.

Morning Star thought for a moment, his expression became solemn, and said, "Old man, I have three things I want you to help with, please be sure to do it, I thank you in advance." ”

Shiraishi looked at Morning Star's expression and knew that this young man was serious now, so he said, "Do your best." ”

"Hmm. First, I hope that you will contact the Third Fleet, regardless of any interference, regardless of any reasons from the higher-ups, and send enough evacuation ships to evacuate the people on Hyven, otherwise all the sacrifices we have made will be meaningless. Morningstar's first request was immediately answered in the affirmative by Shiraishi, which was what Shiraishi had in mind, and more than any other arrangement, evacuating the people was clearly the top priority.

Morningstar nodded and continued, "Second, I hope you can maximize the mobilization of your existing forces, and also enlist the support of the Third Fleet as much as possible, and resist the attack of the swarm as much as possible. As you know, the Worm is gathering forces, this attack will be ferocious like you've never seen before, it will take time for the people to evacuate, it will take time for me and Quinn to do it, and the longer you are involved in the frontal battle, the easier it will be for us to accomplish what we have to do! ”

Hearing Morning Star's words, Shiraishi asked with some concern, "You guys, are you going to find the source of the insects?" ”

Morningstar nodded and continued, "The third thing is also related to what we are going to do. For some reason, Quinn and I tend to ignore our existence, or even treat us as if we were one of our kind. I won't be able to go into detail about the reasons for this, but please trust me that my starting point is to make this evacuation go smoothly. If Quinn and I can destroy the hive, then the Worm's forces won't increase indefinitely, and sooner or later, we can regain control of Haven. ”

Shiraishi nodded again, his trust in Morning Star was so silent and inexplicable. But Morningstar's words didn't state his request, so Shiraishi asked, "Then what do you need me to do for you?" ”

Morningstar pulled Nolin Hill to the side and said, "Old man, she is my woman, but she does not have the same abilities as me and Quinn, so I can't take her with me during this operation, my request is that whether I can come back or not, I hope you can return her safely to my ship." ”

Shiraishi nodded vigorously again, and indicated that as long as he still had a breath, he would definitely be able to protect Norin Hill. But Norin Hill shook his head like a rattle, and tears welled up in his eyes. Morningstar was also distressed when he saw Nolin Hill with pear blossoms and rain, but he couldn't keep her by his side anyway, if he did that, it would be equivalent to sending her to death. Morningstar took Nolin Hill's hand and walked into the bedroom, put his arm around her waist and hugged her to his lap, and said, "Nolin, I let you stay, in fact, there is a task assigned to you, do you remember the Ma Kane who wanted to go to Alpha 137 with us that night?" I'll arrange for the Queen's Eye to land when I evacuate, and it's important that you help Macain bring those people to the Queen's Eye when the time comes. ”

Norin Hill didn't answer, she knew in her heart that going together would only bring more trouble to Morningstar, but she didn't want Morningstar and Quinn to fight for their lives, she wanted Morningstar to stay and evacuate together.

Morningstar also knew Norin Hill's thoughts, but he couldn't agree, this decapitation operation was imperative, if no one went, the firepower in the shelter would not be able to resist the endless swarm of insects.

After talking for half an hour, Nolin Hill finally nodded in agreement. Morningstar also reconnected with the Queen's Eye and arranged all the plans one by one.

The rest depends on the will of God.
