Anne finally figured out what Lin Zhuxue meant by showing off to her that "there are only 51 crew members on the Guandu frigate".

Because Lin Zhuxue is actually showing off how "spacious" the "Guandu" is! As a ship in the direction of special operations, the "Guandu" frigate pays more attention to sustainable combat, but unlike those fleets with patrol missions, each frigate must be crammed with at least a hundred people! On the Guandu, everyone can have their own bed (double-decker, 2.5 x 1.5 meters), rather than a place to sleep in shifts (rotation system, those who are not on duty rest).

However, the so-called spaciousness is relatively speaking, after all, the Guandu needs to carry more supplies than conventional frigates. On the entire ship, except for the captain's small office, including the first mate Lin Zhuxue, they all slept in collective dormitories. Perhaps because the captain was a woman and paid more attention to details, Anne was fortunate enough to have a separate dormitory with thirteen other women.

"Annie, ......" Lin Zhuxue, who came to find Annie, just pushed open the door and quickly closed the door again. Then there was a "bang", and a water cup slammed on the door.

"Come into the woman's room and knock on my door!" He heard Anne's roar through the door, and he felt ashamed...... In the past, the team was full of men and women...... Even when everyone sleeps, they are wearing regular clothes, and at most they take off the hurdle vest, so I really didn't think about this.

The women inside were happily teasing there, some said, "Anne is so cute", and some said, "I'm used to being seen, Captain Lin is so ......", "Don't suffer, I've seen his bare ass". Lin Hanzi's old face suddenly turned red - don't get me wrong, the last one to speak was the ship doctor.

"It's really just a matter of politeness. The captain is not the good/kind of person. Lin Zhuxue heard the sound of Anne hurriedly arguing for him from inside the house. Immediately burst into tears in my heart...... It's still a newcomer who knows how to respect the captain! But then he heard Anne say, "Besides, captain, doesn't he like men?" ”

The world fell silent in an instant...... The forest bamboo snow was gray and white...... Then the room erupted in earth-shattering laughter! Several female men banged on the bed hard, laughing weakly and burst into tears! For a few years, the depression of being ignored as a gender among the Marines was suddenly emptied......

……

A few minutes later, in the quiet corridor, Lin Zhuxue and Anne walked one after the other.

Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Zhuxue immediately explained in a whisper. "Annie, I'm not actually that ......"

He believed that with the mouths of those female men, the rumors that he was a would soon spread to the whole ship, and that would not be managed. But if you can't control Anne's mouth, it will spread from a colonel to the whole army - that kind of life is too tragic!

As soon as he was halfway through his words, he saw a female naval captain walking menacingly on the opposite side! On the frigate "Guandu", there was only one captain......

"Captain!" Lin Zhuxue and Anne immediately got out of the way, stood up straight and shook their hands, saluting her together! "Humph!" The female captain pushed Lin Zhuxue heavily. Then he turned around and walked away in a rage...... She suddenly rushed over, as if she was just to give Lin Zhuxue a blow!

"Captain, what did you just want to say?" Waiting for the captain to leave, Anne blinked wide-eyed. looked at Lin Zhuxue with an innocent face.

"Forget it......" Lin Zhuxue said weakly - my eyes see the future, life or something, it is completely gone." I'll take you to the right weapons and equipment. ”

Warehouse area. With a slight roar, under the illumination of the lights. The walls of this corridor are beginning to show horizontal stripes. The walls crack along the horizontal stripes and become individual partitions. Then the partition flips over, revealing the firearm hanging inside! In an instant, this inconspicuous corridor has become a murderous arsenal! Dozens of large and small guns are neatly arranged on both sides of the corridor! It looks spectacular!

"Cool!" Anne couldn't help but whistle and looked left and right with her eyes shining. Anne must now play a rebellious girl, but there is only one such person who has been impressed by her life, Ding Mumu...... So she reversed the image of her confidant big sister back then, and got closer and closer to Ding Mumu. Seeing Annie's reaction, Lin Zhuxue crossed her hands and hugged her, very proud.

Although there is an equipment depot on the "Guandu", what is stored there are weapons and armor uniformly issued by the army, which are all basic models. It's different here, here is the "Gamma" squad's own collection, which is simply "trophies"! There are a lot of magic modifications and unscientific weapons in it! In order to convert this corridor into a "gamma" team's showroom, the Marines put a lot of effort into it! Therefore, when every newcomer comes, Lin Zhuxue has to take someone to show off, and then help the newcomer pick a weapon - the quality of the guns here is much better than the standard equipment of the Star Alliance.

Anne admired it all the way, reading the instruction card under the weapon, full of joy. She is also very fond of collecting weapons, and when she met Lin Zhuxue, she suddenly felt a sense of pity for the orangutans! However, Anne's collection is much higher, and it is full of Medusa's shield, the wooden knife of Poison Island Tsuneko, and the bra of the Knight King...... Ahem, I didn't say anything just now.

Just as she was browsing casually, her eyes were suddenly firmly attracted by a big gun with a strong appearance!

The 80-centimeter-long barrel, with only a short butt, looks like a one-handed pistol. But looking at the baby's wrist-thick muzzle, coupled with the huge boxy heat dissipation sleeve on the outside, the whole gun looks like a square iron rod! The rough heat dissipation holes on the outside of the muzzle, the oil-stained hand rest, and the big "300-M" on the side of the gun make the whole gun exude a rugged beauty of the big industrial era!

"No, don't." Seeing Annie's eyes, Lin Zhuxue suddenly felt that something was wrong. "Don't pick that gun, it'll shatter your entire arm at once! I've tried, and the fracture is painful! Why don't you take a look at that Raptor V assault rifle next to you?! Tough mess...... Ah~" He couldn't help but groan, because just as he was recommending hard, Anne had already jumped lightly and took the big gun that was placed on top.

"That's my best collectible......" he couldn't help but complain, that thing, the recoil of the gun is completely non-human, although it is produced by a human company, but it is a galactic race, and only a 400-kilogram Krogan warrior can use it!

But when he looked at Anne's "petite" body, carrying such a big gun, Lin Zhuxue actually felt ...... It's pretty good.

"The M-300 'Broadsword' shotgun......" Anne pronounced the name on the nameplate, "and that's it!" ”

At this time, the year 2176 of the Citadel, the dawn of the dawn officially embarked on their own journey.

In 2157, the first contact war. Five prosthetic babies – Poison Island Tsunza, Mu Xing, Li Huamei, Anne and Lu Yuan – come into the world.

In 2164, Ding Mumu's prosthetic body replaced Henry. Rosen made a descendant (deceased) and became Miranda. Rosen's first sister. In 2166, Miranda's second sister, Oriena, was born. In 2170, Miranda. Rosen fled her father's empire and joined Cerberus. In 2173, in order to prevent her own tragedy from repeating herself in her sister, Miranda stole her healthy sister, Oriena, from her father's empire. In 2175, Ding Mumu escaped from the real room, joined the "Eclipse" mercenary group in the same year, and began to harass his sister Miranda......

Tsukiko Poison Island officially entered in 2171 because her father was a director of the Earth Tech giant, Ariake Technology. Tsukiko Tokushima is currently studying at the private Tokyo University of Justice, striving to become the perfect assistant (why is there such a course as "bridal training"?!). ）。

Mu Xing entered in 2173, and after helping his father-in-law achieve the design results of the "Graytip Shark" infantry fighting vehicle, he entered the nearby engineering college on the recommendation of Professor Xu. Mu Xing became a doctor in 2176, and in the same year began to serve as a consultant to the Navy's Energy Office, and recently began to set up a real room for the development of engines for small and medium-sized civilian spacecraft (financed by a company controlled by Cerberus).

Li Huamei entered the world of Mass Effect in 2173. In the same military family, she was escorted to the Naval Flight Academy because she showed excellent piloting talent when she was a teenager. But the very year she graduated, her father was implicated in the presidential assassination (in fact, he was the only one to be held accountable). ）。 Li Huamei had to graduate early and was sent to the "Elysium" colony - the edge of the galaxy, a worthless vacation planet, a retirement sanctuary - as a Marine Corps leader! (She learned to drive a battleship...... It seems that some people would never see her again for the rest of their lives!

Anne, entered in 2175. Because of some misunderstanding, she became the first and only person in the Dawn project to successfully enter the Star Alliance Navy. After a full year of recruit training, Anne joined the "Gamma" squad of the 63rd Reconnaissance Detachment of the Fifth Fleet. Every day, she follows the reconnaissance team in obscurity, but diligently completes one task after another - if she can accumulate enough qualifications after a few years to be recommended to participate in the N Department training in the Navy, it will be her greatest opportunity.

And our protagonist Lu Yuan, driving a dilapidated boat and wearing a "fake" N7 armor, has become a happy transport merchant. After completing his first business, he left the solar system from the Charon repeater to devote himself to the great cause of colony transportation.

The vast galaxy, the boundless sea and stars, separate the scattered few people, and I don't know when we will be able to reunite ......
