Chapter 4: Starry Sky Adventure

With the development of the times, the starry sky is no longer unfamiliar to human beings, and after more than 600 years, human footsteps have stepped into many star fields in the universe. In the past 600 years, human beings have not only discovered other administrative stars similar to their home planets in the depths of the starry sky, but also formed alliances with alien races. The infighting of mankind and the war of various races in the interstellar race have caused mankind to encounter great opportunities and also suffered great blows.

In the six hundred years of exploring the starry universe, the human world has been divided and merged, from the original division of countries into a complete human federation, and due to the rise of new human beings and the emergence of star stripes, the human federation has been directly divided, forming two major human formations - the new human empire and the human federation. In the history of human development, the appearance of the star pattern is definitely the heaviest stroke, and neither the Human Federation nor the New Human Empire can deny its historical status. As a result, the "Vortex Meteorite Belt", a dangerous place in the starry sky, has also been recorded in history because of the relationship between the stars!

"There is a vortex meteorite belt ahead, large carrier ships cannot enter, all squadron personnel, please take a small battleship to continue the journey below......" A robot girl voice came from the transport ship, but Chenping, who was training, ignored it, controlled the mecha while sprinting, while controlling the heavy machine gun on the mecha with all his strength, and fired several shots at the target in the training room, until the pain was severe all over his body, and his hands were weak before he had to stop, and then panted to confirm whether he had hit the target. Unfortunately, the results were not ideal, and only one of the bullets in a series hit the edge of the target, and the results were really poor.

"Rookie, come down!" A rough voice sounded in the training room, and he ordered unceremoniously and directly.

"Understood, right away!" As soon as he got off the mecha, Chenping felt a sharp pain in his body, as if his body was about to fall apart. Although it is only a rudimentary standard mecha, without the "Star Beast" as a buffer, the body is still a little unable to support it. After relaxing his body for a while, he walked out of the training room, and when he saw a tall man in the training room, Chenping couldn't help but ask curiously, "Boss, have you arrived?" ”

"Well, keep up! We're going to meet on the third apron. The man who was called "Boss" by Chenping glanced at Chenping coldly, nodded flatly, and led a group of people out of the training area.

This boss is nicknamed Iron Wolf, and it's not clear what his real name is Chenping. Because no one here knows how to use their real names, even Chenping got the nickname "rookie" when he arrived here - of course, Chenping would not be so naΓ―ve as to think that this is just a nickname! Although this operation was organized by the military department, most of the soldiers were mercenaries, except for a regular army. A rookie like Chenping naturally couldn't be selected into the regular army, so he was thrown into the 3rd Special Operations Squadron, which was composed of mercenaries. Iron Wolf is one of the ten squad leaders of the squadron, and Chenping still remembers the first time he saw this person!

"I heard that the crow was killed by you?" The fierce appearance of the iron wolf's face full of scars leaned over at once, and Chen Ping was scared a lot at that time: "Just your body...... Is it possible? ”

"I killed him, if you don't believe it, you dig him out and ask him!" Seeing the other party's contemptuous demeanor, Chenping was immediately enraged. In addition, his father had told him that after he joined the army, he should be tough when dealing with people, otherwise no one would look down on him, so he boldly replied.

"......" After hearing Chenping's words, the iron wolf looked at him coldly for a while, and Chenping, who was staring at him, was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, almost thinking that the other party was going to beat him for a while! It's just that after watching it for a while, the iron wolf left without saying a word. It wasn't until later that Chenping got acquainted with the team members that he learned that Iron Wolf's previous team had chased and killed the crows, but they were almost wiped out by the crows, and several of their best brothers and friends died in that battle.

Newcomers who join the team never get the respect of the veterans, let alone a rookie like Chenping who has not been trained or even underaged! But except for the iron wolf's provocation, nothing like that happened. And the only bad thing is that the iron wolf is very attentive to Chenping's training, and during this period of time when the transport ship is flying, it can be said that Chenping is being trained to death, which makes the originally chubby teenager lose weight.

Small expedition ships took off and flew into the meteorite belt. Chenping looked at the meteorites passing by the side of the spaceship on the lookout, and his eyes flashed with an inexplicable light. Although he was forced to participate in this expedition, he was deeply excited about both the training and the current deep dive into the meteorite belt - or maybe this is the adventure factor hidden in the young man's heart!

"We have gone through this section many times, it seems to be thrilling, but in fact it is nothing!" At this time, a tall and thin man walked up to Chenping, leaned against the fence and said with a smile. This person's nickname is "Gray Cat", a member of the Iron Wolf Squad, and his biggest characteristic is that he chatters, and his mouth never stops. The other group members were bored with him, so they had to come to talk to Chenping. And through the gray cat, Chenping also knows a lot of things. For example, the reason for this expedition is that an unmanned exploration spacecraft accidentally detected a space hidden in a giant meteorite, which contains an unknown energy signal source.

The fundamental reason why Starstripe, as an alien civilization, has been promoted in the human world is because of its magical sealing ability. Whether you're a mutant or an alien, once you've carved the star stripe, you'll be completely mortal. As long as the government manages the "star-striped weapon" well, it can suppress the armed forces of the people, so as to better manage human society. Therefore, the Federation has always paid great attention to the vortex meteorite belt in the place of origin of the starstripe, and the detection work of the vortex meteorite belt has never stopped. Because of this, as soon as the unmanned exploration spacecraft over there sent back the information, the military headquarters on this side immediately organized this operation.

"Since the military department attaches so much importance to this detection operation, why do we still have irrelevant people involved in this operation?" Chenping asked suspiciously.

"Need cannon fodder!" The gray cat said with a smile.

"What, we're cannon fodder too?" Chenping was taken aback.

"Of course, otherwise what do you think we are? You're in luck, though! Compared to those wanderers and criminals, we mercenaries hired by the military department are undoubtedly much safer. The gray cat said meaningfully: "For extremely dangerous relics areas such as the Vortex Meteorite Belt, the style of the military department has always been like this. First, a mix of mercenaries and scientists will be sent to investigate, and the real military team will assist and monitor all the explorers, and when the exploration is over, it is only necessary to strengthen the inspection to prevent the first movers from taking important equipment and information away. Because it is not the first team, the armed forces of the military have always been the least damaged, and relatively speaking, aren't we mercenaries cannon fodder? As for the wanderers and criminals, we privately call them 'Minewalkers', so you can't guess what they do! ”

"......" Chenping swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and his back was already wet unconsciously.

There was a "bang" vibration, and Chen Ping looked outside in disbelief, but it was the vibration caused by the spacecraft opening the protective shield. Immediately after that, the spacecraft passed through the meteorite group outside and came to a dazzling nebula. Chenping was instantly fascinated by the dreamlike scenery, and did not come back to his senses until the ship sailed into the nebula. But after the spacecraft entered the nebula, the originally stable spacecraft ushered in a series of slight vibrations, as if the spacecraft had been attacked like raindrops.

"Why are you only opening the shield now?" Chen Ping recalled at this time, it turned out that the spacecraft was sailing in the outer meteorite belt just now without opening the protective shield, and he was suddenly afraid, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"The nature of meteorites here is quite special, and the force field generated by the protective shield will attract the meteorite autonomously, causing difficulties in navigation, so most skilled pilots will not open the protective shield. And after entering the inside of the meteorite belt, you can't help but open the protective shield! Gray Cat casually explained.

"How long is it left?" At this time, there was a white mangs outside, and countless chaotic energy light waves were beating, making people dare not look directly, and Chen Ping barely lost interest after watching it for a while.

"We'll have to sail for almost two days, let's go back and rest for a while!" The gray cat obviously didn't want to stay any longer, so he walked towards the sleeping compartment with Chenping. During this time, Chenping has been training, familiar with the driving of mecha and the habit of fighting, and can only sleep for two hours a day. Now that I'm in a small expedition spaceship, I can't train at all, but I can get a good night's sleep!
