Chapter 57 Supplies

Vane waved at the mechanical priest, "Got it. Then he turned to me, "Now what else do you need to prepare?" If you need supplies, please mark them out and we can transport them to the departure deck for you. ”

I was curious and asked, "Is there a teleporter on board?" Isn't this something that battleships are equipped with? ”

Before Captain Vane could answer, the old priest next to him preemptively said: "Before changing its name to Melved Picker, this ship was a supply ship that fought with the main fleet, and it could carry a large number of marines, of course, it had the ability to jump gangs. Later, the thruster was broken during the battle and could not keep up with the speed of the Grand Fleet, so it had to be used exclusively as a transport ship. Our teleporters are always well maintained and ready to go back into battle. ”

As he spoke, he walked over to the queue of lieutenants, ensigns, and non-commissioned officers, and tapped his scepter on the ground.

With a hula, all of them are designed for the most formal standing posture by straddle.

He put down the helmet mask on the spacesuit inside his robe, and raised his scepter to point at the door of the bridge, and everyone immediately put down their masks, turned and walked away from the bridge in unison.

I stood there in a daze, feeling like I was being ignored. Also, what's the matter with this old man?

Vane saw my embarrassment and came up to explain, "Eurix is so old and a little confused, and this time he wants to be the captain of the first commandos. Don't be angry with him. ”

Well, after meeting for so long, I still just learned the name of the old priest.

Eurix walked slowly, he hadn't stepped out of the bridge at this time, and his ears were not deaf at all, and he obviously heard the bad words that Vane was saying behind his back, so he glared back at him, but didn't say anything, but asked me: "Your Excellency Lieutenant Colonel Ilshan, is the battle situation not too optimistic on the heresy redemption?" ”

"No, no, we played well and the attack wasn't hindered. Although it has not yet encountered the real main force of the enemy army. Moreover, we could not even find the location of the enemy's main forces, perhaps hiding. Why are you asking? I said.

The old man said, "I saw you appear with a full set of vacuum combat equipment. If you are an army soldier or not, you may not understand the implications, but in a standard battleship defense battle plan, the penultimate step is to release the air inside the cabin and suffocate the enemy without a breathing apparatus. The last step is to detonate the key parts and destroy the whole ship. The appearance of you like that gives me some not-so-good associations. ”

This observation...... Is it true that people can only become good when they are old? Or are you a little suspicious?

"It's actually a misunderstanding, I thought it would be teleported to a transport pod or something, and I remember that many parts of the ship have been vacuumed." I explained.

"I hope it's exactly what you say. If you're going to be part of the gang jumping, we'll see you on the Heresy Redemption. He bowed slightly, then turned and walked out of the bridge.

Is this old man really going to join the first wave of commandos? Although I have seen the Imperial Bishop lead the charge many times on the battlefield, I have never seen such an Imperial Bishop as Lao Cheng!

With a stroke of my pen in the books, I included almost all the heavy weapons that a single soldier could use, along with ammunition. Although I prefer large-caliber shells, I naturally don't blatantly touch them with something that is obviously not used inside a battleship.

Turning back and handing it to Captain Vane, "Then I'm going to leave too, I'll leave the matter on this ship to you, and if the battle doesn't go well, please send reinforcements in time." ”

"You can rest assured!" Said the acting captain.

I'm not at ease at all, so I'll be angry with you, and if the war doesn't go well, I'll definitely be the first to think of running away. But I've almost achieved my goal, a full shipload of munitions is almost all mine now, and by the way, a group of crew members, although their physique and combat effectiveness are not very reassuring, but they are more or less a few men. …,

"Go, catch up with Bishop Ulrix, and let the first commandos leave ten minutes later." Walking out of the bridge, I gave an order to Aishwarya, and by the way, verbally promoted the old man by a few ranks.

The nun stood still, "Why?" ”

That's why I especially hate this kind of non-military people. A real soldier will carry out the order as soon as possible, never asking why.

"Let them change their heavy weapons and carry as much ammunition as possible. You know, the next battle won't be easy. "I'm afraid that someone will hear it and affect morale, so I said this in the communicator.

"What about you?" The nun was clearly more concerned about her surveillance - I mean guard - mission to me.

I gestured to the cabin that belonged to me on one side of the hallway, "I'm going to get dressed." Now that I'm the leader of a unit, I can't still wear this GI's uniform, right? ”

Then I suddenly shouted: "Execute the order!" The murderous spirit of the old soldier and the official authority of the officer finally drove the nun away.

There was no gravity outside the bridge, and the nun had to open the jetpack to move forward, and I was almost burned by her tail flames.

Looking at the nun's struggling flight with a heavy bolt gun, I thought to myself that she would have gotten lost on the ship and never seen again.

Pulling out the communicator, he switched back to the ship's universal channel, "Eurix, Priest Eurix, are you there?" I'm Lieutenant Colonel Ilshan. ”

Soon there was an answer, "What's the matter?" We're about to enter the teleporter, so we don't have time to talk. ”

"Hold off on departure and let the team change their heavy weapons."

"Understood." With a sighing voice.

Listening to his tone, I not only understood my orders, but also understood that the battle I was about to face would be difficult. However, although the priest had a high status, he had lived in the army for a long time, and he had also acquired the habits of a soldier, and he never delayed in carrying out orders. It's still more pleasant to deal with this kind of person.

I didn't expect Ashwarya to pass the order through.

I went into my cabin, took off my black and scarred armor and military uniform, took out my officer's dress from my suitcase, and meticulously hung up the tassel pendants and ribbons, and hung the gold and silver medals. The defense force is not so exquisite, not as gorgeous as Sylvia's, but when it was just sent down, I was still excited for a long time, and I specially dressed it and ran to the battlefield to target the enemy snipers and artillery. This complicated set of work is really difficult, and it usually takes a lot of effort for Ah Da to help me wear it with eight hands, and the gravity-free environment greatly increases the difficulty.

In other words, in a gravity-free environment, whether it is eating, drinking, or dressing and walking, it is a very difficult technical job.

Moreover, after wearing the officer's uniform, it is a bit strange to carry the air bottle and put on the breathing mask. It is conceivable that Old Man Eurix can put another layer of priest's robes on top of his space suit......

Not being able to wear a helmet also doesn't make me feel very happy. However, my officer's hat is specially made, and my psionic headband is hidden inside. With the headband on, I was able to use more powerful psionic powers instead of worrying about backlash.

For example, teleporting inside the spaceship. Of course, you still need to remotely sense the environment before teleporting to avoid getting stuck in the wall.

Mask-on, I teleported to the ship's storage room. Knowing who I am, the busy crew just glanced at me indifferently and then went on to get about their business. When there is a specific job, the soldier does not need to take the initiative to salute the officer.

It was evident that Captain Vane was doing a good job of carrying out his promises, and that the crew was doing a good job. It was just a matter of changing my clothes, and the crew had already opened many of the containers and removed boxes of heavy weapons and more boxes of ammunition. The firepower of heavy weapons is satisfying, and the requirements for ammunition are also a headache. Thankfully, there's no gravity here, and people can carry a lot more weight than normal - but what about the heresy redemption......

"Your Excellency, is there anything I need to do for you?" A non-commissioned officer walked over.

I nodded, "Yes, before, there were some heretics who teleported to our ship and stole some supplies. I wonder, after repelling them, did you count the specific losses? ”

"Not yet, Lieutenant Colonel. I'm sorry, Lieutenant Colonel. Need to start doing it now? The non-commissioned officer was ashamed.

It's been two hours, and the efficiency of the ship in Sylvia's absence...... But it's okay......

"No, the first task now is to transport the munitions needed for the battle first." I tapped him on the shoulder, "Okay, it's none of you." ”

It's still nice to wear a breathing mask, at least when you snicker, others can't see it.
