Chapter Ninety-Nine: Undeclared War (I)
Lopu sat back in the command chair with his heavy body, he looked at Polk and said: "Although Bony has given you a reassurance, those people from the Safety Supervision Commission will not let us go, and it is illegal to conduct such a large-scale military exercise without their approval." I, the commander, will definitely step down, and your actions are enough to be imprisoned for life. ”
Neil was very dissatisfied with Lope's words and deeds, and he said with a calm face: "Commander Lope, our minister has analyzed for you that the attack of the superweapon is not only unstoppable but also devastating, as long as there is a one in ten thousand chance, we must take decisive action." This is responsible for the lives of tens of thousands of people, including those members of the safety supervision committee, and even if the attack does not take place, it is reasonable and legal for us to do so.
As the Commander of the Space Police, you must do your best to uphold the legal rights of the Space Police, including the legal rights of your subordinates. In the current situation, it is your most important duty to ensure that the people of Headquarters City are not harmed by terrorist attacks, and Commander Yuri and our nine ministers have all paid for their lives, so why should the commander care about the trivial matter of whether our minister is forcing the commander to issue orders. ”
Lop looked at Neil speechless for a while, was silent for a moment and sneered: "Neil, your kid's eloquence is good, okay, if I can continue to be the commander, not only will I not care about your minister's behavior this time, but also promote you to be the head of the quartermaster department, I want to see if your eloquent mouth can convince the safety supervision committee to give us more funds for the space police." ”
Luo Lan was worried that Lop would really transfer Neil out of the reconnaissance department, so he preemptively said: "Report to the commander, Neil joined the Space Police on the mission of arresting terrorists to avenge his grandfather, so he is not suitable to work in the quartermaster department." ”
Luo Pu pointed at Luo Lan and Ah Hu and said angrily: "You two kidnapped Commander Ben just now, Commander Ben was tossed by you and his heart was very uncomfortable, and now Commander Ben orders you to find some delicious food immediately!"
Ah Hu was unmoved, and said lightly: "Commander, your heart discomfort is caused by your excessive consumption of food, so moderation is good for your health." ”
There was a burst of laughter in the command room.
Boni issued instructions to his secretary's office as soon as he confirmed that Lop had issued a Level 1 Readiness Order.
In accordance with Boni's instructions, Amma and her colleagues issued a first-level combat readiness retreat order to the relevant departments and agencies of the Galactic Alliance headquarters in their respective charges.
After all the work was done, Yama was busy packing up the important documents and information storage and other important items in her office, and finally she hurriedly left the office with a cardboard box and a few colleagues, and then took the high-speed elevator to the roof of the building to board their respective flying cars and leave.
Amma drove her flying car into the air quickly, and then hovered in the air for about two thousand meters, she looked down from the air, the thousands of colorful aircraft that usually parked on the ground and on the roof of the office area of the Galactic Alliance headquarters were left at this time, and there was not a single battleship in sight at the military base of the Space Police, and she and her colleagues were almost the last to evacuate the headquarters base.
Ama glanced at the ground one last time, and flew the speeding car towards the west side of HQ, and a few minutes later, Neil's voice came from the intercom on her wrist:
"Yama, have you evacuated?"
"I just left HQ." Ama replied, looking at the sky, dozens of golden highlights on the clear gray canopy formed a pleasing geometric shape, which was the fleet array of the Space Police after entering space.
"Which safe zone are you retreating to?" Neil continued.
"Hagrid Park on the western outskirts of Spirited City! Neil, when will the Level 1 Combat Readiness Alert be lifted? Amma asked, looking at the canopy.
There was a moment of silence in the intercom, and suddenly Neil's exclamation was heard: "Super weapon has appeared!" Amma quick..."
Neil's voice stopped abruptly, and at the same time, Ama looked back and saw a rainbow appear on the canopy, or a rainbow phantom, as the rainbow instantly condensed into a dazzling ball of light and swooped down on the direction of the headquarters city on the ground.
An earth-shattering sound was deafening, and a dazzling light flashed in front of Yama's eyes, and then a huge shockwave rushed from the ground into the sky, sending Yama's speeding car into the air, and she felt a gravitational force from acceleration that made her body unable to move in her seat.
Fortunately, her speeding car was far away from the center of the explosion, and both the speeding car and herself were unscathed, and when the force of the shock wave was withdrawn, Ama struggled to control the speeding car to flee to the horizon at full speed.
In the Space Force's fleet command center, everyone stood up and stared at the image in the window, the headquarters city was gone, the land had become an unfathomable canyon shrouded in blazing smoke, and the vast expanse beyond the rim of the canyon was charred black, and the grass and trees on the ground and any combustible objects were burning.
"Ahh Lop suddenly let out a scream, and the already tense crowd was startled.
The two intelligent assistants standing beside him reacted quickly, grabbed Lope just as his massive body was about to fall to the ground, and then pressed him down on the seat.
At this point, Lope was unconscious, and an intelligent assistant took out a pill and stuffed it into Loop's mouth.
"What's wrong with the commander?" Poke asked in surprise.
"Commander has had a heart attack and needs to go to the ground hospital for first aid!" Another intelligent assistant next to Lope replied, and quickly sent a message of first aid.
After a while, a small ambulance entered the command center to pick Lope away, and more than half of the assistant commanders followed the ambulance out of the command center.
As soon as Polk and the others watched Lop leave, a holographic image of Bony appeared in the window of the command center, his face was solemn, his gaze scanned the command center and then froze on Polke's face.
"Minister Pock, it turns out that your judgment is completely correct, thank you! Why isn't Commander Lope here? Bony asked, puzzled.
"Report to Mr. Boni, Commander Lop just had a heart attack and was taken to a ground hospital for emergency treatment." Polk replied.
Bony frowned and said, "Obviously, Lope's physical and mental condition is completely incompetent for the position of commander of the Space Police. After speaking, his tone became sincere, "Minister Pock, do you think the Level 1 Combat Readiness Order can be lifted now?" ”
"I don't think so, we have to guard against terrorists launching a second strike against us." Polk replied.
"Well, I support you. Minister Pock, if you are able to sustain your current physical condition, please act as the Commander of the Space Police at this critical time, and I will formally nominate you to take over the position of Lopp at an emergency video conference held by the Safety Supervision Commission. Do you have any objections to this? Boni's tone was sincere and his eyes were full of anticipation.
"Thank you, Mr. Bony, for your trust, my health is fine." Polk replied.
A smile appeared on Bony's tense face, "Good! Minister Pock, please take command of the Space Police immediately! The SEC will soon send your appointment information to all departments of the Space Police. ”
"Yes!" Pork straightened up.
As soon as Boni's image disappeared, there was a round of applause from the command center.
Whether it's a cyborg officer or an intelligent assistant, everyone in the command hall clapps their hands at Pock. Without the accurate judgment and firm willpower of this colleague in a hospital gown, they would have all dissipated into a cloud of gas in space at this moment.
Although there was no smile on everyone's face, they looked at Pok with respect in their eyes, and their warm applause expressed their full support for Pok's promotion to the position of commander.
Pock looked around and nodded in acknowledgment before stepping up to the podium with Neil's help.
