Chapter 117: Dialogue

"We've done what we need to do, and all we can do is wait. At the very least, we should be thankful that we were able to move away a significant portion of this vital equipment before the opponent could reach the core. Zhou Xin spread his hands helplessly.

"You can think about it." Spred replied with a smile, "I don't want to think about how much damage the other side's two large-scale attacks, especially this one, have caused us." But then he changed to the same tone as Zhou Xin, "But it's also said that it's enough for us to be able to do this when everywhere is restricted." ”

"Judging from the recent experience, I think our combat effectiveness is too weak today." Dart offered his opinion, "Not only that, but it can be said that since I came to the ship, our combat strength has not been strong. If nothing else, if we were able to show strong enough deterrence on the planet's civilization on a large scale for the first time, then maybe they would not dare to launch this attack, and maybe it was because of our weak performance in the first attack that the other side had the courage to attack again. Of course, a large part of the reason for the lack of combat effectiveness should be attributed to the fact that we do not have suitable underwater combat equipment, but it is enough to warn us that we should not hope that we will not encounter a similar environment in the future, but should be fully prepared, and do not remember that we actually have the technology in our hands to cope with the current situation but have not put it into use. In addition, the most important point is that it is time for us to improve our combat effectiveness. ”

"If we really had enough combat power, maybe the remnants of civilization on the planet would have been wiped out by us in the first attack, so maybe there would be no such thing as the latter." Zhou Xin's face became strange, and then he continued, "Moreover, what we have encountered on this planet is only a special circumstance, and it is the restrictions from many aspects that have caused this situation to be now. I think that even if we did have enough combat power, after learning enough information from those aliens, you would have made the same decision as me. Of course, I'm not saying this to make excuses, or to say that improving combat effectiveness isn't important, it's just that the situation on this planet is too surprising. What's more, you have to know that improving combat effectiveness is actually not an easy thing to do. Not to mention that we basically don't have the energy and resources to think about these things at present, and even in the past, it was very difficult to do this, such as the most basic manpower problem. ”

As he spoke, his tone became helpless, "Didn't you notice that most of the other members of our spaceship, except for a few Thunderstars, are half-grown children except for children?" The older Atlantean kids were barely adjusting to life on the ship and doing their day-to-day work, but they had to take care of the younger kids outside of work, and we couldn't have been involved in the development and manufacture of weapons. In fact, the templates of the combat robots we use now are still the most primitive generation brought out of the earth, and it is not difficult to mass-produce them without improving them, but this does not have much effect on the improvement of combat effectiveness. Not to mention the technology integration work that we have been working on for a long time, it is almost impossible to rely on Atlas and a handful of Thunder Planets alone. ”

Such words suddenly silenced everyone in the entire command cabin......

On the other side, while Zhou Xin and the others were reflecting, the atmosphere of the Gezio team, which was still waiting for news in the warehouse, seemed quite lively, especially after knowing Gezio's hidden identity.

"Captain, I really didn't expect you to be the son of an executive officer." The most detached of the few was Mondcombe, and the other end of the communication device had just quieted down when he cried out, "I didn't expect you to hide it from us for so long." ”

"That's it." Even Mei Linqi's voice was slightly excited, "I didn't expect that Captain, you usually look no different from us, and there will be such a big source behind you." ”

"I thought it was a little weird at the time." Pavro scratched his head and said, "Why did His Excellency the Executive Officer personally arrest us after we came back from the attack without permission, it turns out that there is such a secret in it." ”

However, in the face of the excited teammates around him, at this time, Gezio maintained his initial posture as if he was in another world and did not respond, his attention was all focused on the communication device in front of him that had just been repaired, and most of the wiring was still exposed, and even the expression on his face did not change in any way.

Just as Mondcombe noticed Gezioor's expression and raised his voice to wake him up, Mimiros's voice suddenly sounded again in the communication device, which had been left with only a faint radio wave.

"Geziol." Compared to not so long ago, the anger in Mimiros's words was noticeably gone, replaced by a solemn and serious tone. After calling Gezio's name, he paused for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then asked a mindless question word by word, "Do you remember what you said to me?" ”

After hearing this question, except for Geziol, whose face was still as usual, the other four team members present, including everyone in the command cabin, all had puzzled expressions on their faces. Soon, all eyes were focused on GΓ©ziol, waiting for his answer.

In the silence, GΓ©ziol's gaze slowly became firm. After a few seconds, he slowly gave an answer in a solemn tone that only Mimiroth could understand, "I always remembered, and I never changed." But hatred is hate, and as I just said, we should give them a chance to explain. Then he added, "It's just a temporary truce, and it won't affect the overall situation." ”

After a brief silence, Mimiros replied without any emotion, "Yes, I see. With those words, he ended the conversation unilaterally.

During this conversation, Zhou Xin in the command cabin just listened silently and did not interfere in any way. Because everyone knows very well that if you rush into the dialogue at this time, it will not have any effect at all, and only Geziol can change the other party's decision. But neither of them expected that the other party would end the communication directly after the conversation.

Immediately, Dart couldn't help but speak: "What do they mean by this, without a word of reply, it ended like this?" In the end, I didn't say yes, but I gave an explanation. ”

As soon as the words fell, Atlas's surprised voice sounded in everyone's ears, "Brother Captain, those attacking forces on the planet have stopped attacking......"
