Chapter 22: The Main Starport
The housekeeper naturally saw the worry in the young master's eyebrows, which could not be hidden. If it can really be defeated, the biggest loss will definitely be a few generals in the hands of the Protoss royal family, followed by the Glaibert family, if there is an excellent commander to help at this time, then you can get the most benefits in this war. After all, the Protoss is more generous with the ownership of some occupied planets. Although General Rui Lai Ya seems to have pulled Mo Ran into the sphere of influence of the Protoss Imperial Family, it does not affect his cooperation with the other party.
In times of war, there are still many people who are willing to use a small amount of rare resources in exchange for the ownership of some planets, but only if the relationship between the two is very good. Otherwise, the vast majority of planetary ownership will belong to those commanders or generals, or even royalty.
But he didn't know what Mo Ran cared about. Putting this question to the back of his mind, all he needed to do at this time was to contact Mo Ran.
Mo Ran's side had just moved to the vicinity of the main starport after some starports had been replenished. Although he had many meetings in Starport, this was the first time he had come to the vicinity of the main Starport. The main starport is not built in a star system, but in the space between several star systems, and the huge main starport can even fit a formation of three long-voyage class warships in it. This is the standard of the main starport, and if it is wartime, one main starport can even build and maintain five Voyage-class warships at the same time.
What was in front of Mo Ran's eyes now was a shocking scene, a large number of long-voyage-class battleship formations were parked around the starport, countless transport ship formations were flying between the battleships in a row, and Mo Ran's fleet was still in a space two light hours away from the starport. This space was a special place for battleships to be parked, and not long after Mo Ran and the others appeared, another battleship moved next to them. Of course, if the battleship moves to other places, it will be in the other direction. In the event of an emergency, all warships can depart from here and move to the battlefield en masse.
When Mo Ran looked at the battleships parked in the distance with some surprise, the repaired fleet that had just moved here was sailing past Mo Ran and them. Compared with the fleet led by Mo Ran, this Astronaut-class battleship formation that had just finished patrolling was brand new and undamaged, which made Mo Ran look full of envy. And almost all of their warships bear signs of damage. Even the battleship that Erwin and Moran are on is still the previous model, and it is a bit troublesome to repair and replace parts.
"When will we have such a fleet!" Mo Ran couldn't help whispering. "The fleet of Cassos and Longfus is this new model!" Wanliu responded to Mo Ran's exclamation. "It's just that after so many long battles, it's just a little damaged." Mo Ran nodded, in fact, he just sighed why these patrol fleets all had such good warships, and his twin space fleets were just old models. The new model improves not only armor protection, but also increased fire positions and optimized staffing, all of which can improve the combat capabilities of a warship.
After collecting his thoughts, Mo Ran asked the fleet to send an order to the main control room of Starport to request supplies. It didn't take long for Mo Ran and the others to receive a message, and a pilot ship came to the front of Mo Ran's fleet, leading them to the place where the battleship was parked.
It was only after about three or four hours that they entered an open space and anchored, and then small pipes connected their fleet, to facilitate the movement of crews between them.
And Mo Ran took Wanliu and a few people to the logistics department of Xinggang. They need to submit the information and basic information of the required supplies, and then Starport will resupply them. This method is not very efficient, and it is very troublesome, but there have been cases where someone has pretended to be another captain to receive supplies, so unless it is a special case, most captains can only go to the starport logistics department if they want supplies and supplies.
Mo Ran and the others took a small spaceship and approached the distant starport. With the control of the central processing unit of the starport, as long as you enter this area, all the navigation and transportation of the warship are handled by the central processing unit of the starport, so even if the speed of the current spaceship is very fast, there is no need to worry about accidents.
About half an hour later, Mo Ran and his party came to the Star Harbor, but what puzzled Mo Ran was that in addition to the androids, there was also a strange Protoss young man waiting for them at the exit. "Moran?" The young man was still unskilled when he uttered the word. But he still had a smile on his face. "My name is Aven. You may not remember me, but I don't know if you remember the first person who challenged you in the mock battle, Sixty-Seven. That's me. ”
"It's the bounty, I want to find the person who defeated you!" Compared to Mo Ran, Rogge must have known more, after all, he had heard a lot of these news outside at that time.
"Yes, yes, that's me." Seeing Mo Ran's companion talking about this, Ai Wen didn't feel embarrassed, but said with a smile. This made Mo Ran feel weird about the guy in front of him. "Doesn't he know what embarrassment is?" Wanliu whispered in the language of the Celestial Empire.
"I don't know, but I guess that's how it should be!" Mo Ran replied softly. He remembered the Sixty-Seven, the one who challenged him when he first entered the simulation hall of the transport, and increased the stakes. But I haven't seen him for a while, and I didn't expect to meet him here now.
"Hello." Mo Ran smiled slightly and said, although he didn't know what the other party had planned, it was still important to maintain a good relationship.
Ai Wen was obviously a little happy, and then he looked at Mo Ran and the others. "I'm here to apologize, for what happened." He looked at Mo Ran in amazement. "Before, I did something wrong, and I hope you will forgive me." Mo Ran looked at the young man of the Protoss in front of him with some astonishment, he didn't know why he did this, if he hadn't said it, he would have forgotten about it a long time ago. What's more, it was also because of his bounty that Mo Ran had a lot of winning points.
"It's nothing, it didn't hurt me, so be it!" Since he didn't understand what the other party wanted to do, Mo Ran just wanted to draw a clear line with the other party, and the principle of not going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing was also applicable here in the Protoss. And the other party is obviously waiting for him here, either he has a strong background to check his traces, or he is the manager of Star Port. The latter is obviously impossible, then it can only be the former.
Hearing Mo Ran's words, Ai Wen was stunned, and then shook his head again and again. "How can this be, this is not our family style. If so, may I invite you to my family? ”
At first, Mo Ran was not interested, but after hearing Evan's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, because he heard Ewen talk about their family. In other words, Evan also belongs to a large family? Thinking of this, Mo Ran's thoughts couldn't help but turn away.
"We're going to get to Sector One now." After hesitating for a moment, Mo Ran said with a look of embarrassment.
"It doesn't matter, we can stay the way. And my family is in the first sector, but I can't go back now. Speaking of this, Evan laughed. When it's time for vacation, I might be able to go back to you. ”
Mo Ran smiled slightly, then nodded. "Okay." Then Ai Wen handed over his contact information to Mo Ran. "I'll contact you when I get back!" After saying that, Evan just left. I don't say more after doing something, which is very efficient.
"This guy is kind of interesting!" Rogge whispered. "I don't remember him behaving like this when I offered the bounty before!" Speaking of this, he couldn't help but look at Mo Ran, and there was one more thing he didn't understand, that is, why Mo Ran suddenly agreed to the other party's request.
"Alright, let's get down to business! Also, Blue Butterfly, please help me look up some information about this Aivan! Mo Ran turned his head and said.
"I've checked it again. A fairly large family, mainly engaged in mining and metallurgy. Blue Butterfly whispered. This Ai Wen is a very talented young man of the Protoss, who was a candidate for battleship commander during the mock battle, and is now the captain of an astronaut-class battleship. ”
Mo Ran nodded. "Alright, let's get things sorted out quickly!" After speaking, he led everyone to the logistics department of Xinggang.
With General Ruilaiya's order, those personnel in the logistics department will not embarrass them because of Mo Ran's identity. The required resources were also approved quickly.
On the way back, Mo Ran looked at the scene outside the porthole. Dozens of formations of long-range warships were parked around the main starport in order, and no matter when you look at such a scene, you can feel the strength of the Protoss and the vastness of the universe.
However, at this time, Mo Ran was looking at the information about Ai Wen from Blue Butterfly, and he couldn't explain the behavior of this Protoss young man for the time being, but he could feel that this Protoss young man should have a purpose.
"What's wrong?" Wanliu looked at Mo Ran a little distracted, and couldn't help asking.
"I'm wondering, what's the reason why this Evan came to me?" Mo Ran said with a far-fetched smile. "I don't feel like I'm doing anything to him!"
"Maybe it's because of your performance in the simulation before! Make him think you can be a partner. Wanliu whispered. Now that the situation of the Protoss is a little uncertain, it is better to win a friend for himself than one more enemy. "I want to talk about "Tomb of the Stars" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
