Chapter 2: She's Alive
Chapter 2: She's Alive
Renault looked at each other blankly, he just stared blankly, Frank said word by word, Renault could see that he was not lying, he opened his mouth, he wanted to say something, but he did not have any decent or clear language in his mind that could clearly express his current mood.
"What?" Renault finally said so. "Nope! No! It's impossible, it's just a dream. Renault shook his head and took a drink.
"It's true!" Frank said in an unmistakable tone, staring directly at him, and Frank continued, "It's her! She sent us a distress signal from deep space, yes! She's a ghost agent, does she know about telepathy? It's the mind liliang, and this reason can explain that we are now having the same dream every day, isn't it? And now there is a very serious problem, she sent a signal to me and you, then it is possible that she also sent a signal to Monsk"
"How is that possible?" Reynolds paused for a long time, still saying this, obviously a little unconvinced.
"Then you think I'm lying?" Frank looked at him and said word by word.
"It's not!" Renault said very dryly.
"Do you believe that?" Frank asked again.
"Believe!" Renault was silent for a long time and then said.
"Are you sure this is really not a dream?" Renault suddenly asked solemnly.
"It's true!" Frank said without hesitation.
"Oh! Oh, my God! Incredible, this is crazy, she's still alive? Sent us a distress signal? And Mengsk? Renault was in a daze, he shook his head suddenly, "Oh no! I need to sober up, I can't drink anymore! β
Seeing this, Frank nodded and said, "You need to wake up, it's not too early!" I'll go to the bridge! It's time to get to work! β
βhaodeοΌ I'll come later. Renault nodded. The two walked out of the bar together.
In the aisle, Renault shook his head and returned to the captain's room, which had once been inhabited by Arcturos. In Mengsk, soft lights rise slowly from the artistic walls, and classical candelabras are evenly dotted on both sides. Famous paintings hang between the doors, giving the illusion of being in a luxurious mansion, is this in a battleship or a sightseeing spaceship? Renault even suspected that Arcturus was probably distressed by the reliefs, cigars, and other treasures here rather than the weapons and equipment on the ship. The big man was very nostalgic for this feeling of comfort. Renault had tried to clean them up, but it took too much time. He also considered finding another ordinary room to live in, but he couldn't resist the insistence of his subordinates. He's now a captain, and this is his bedroom. So he had to endure this luxury. And try to focus your attention elsewhere.
After entering the captain's room, he went to the bathroom, pushed open the wooden door, and the bathroom of the captain's room was so luxurious: marble sink, ceramic floor tiles, gorgeous and elegant faucets and bathing equipment, such a bathroom was more like a super luxurious hotel than in the captain's suite.
Renault walked into the shower naked. As soon as he twisted the silver-encrusted switch, the next moment the nozzle shot out a needle-shaped mist of water, this is real water, it is the most haode water specially prepared for Mengsk! The stimulation of the icy water slowly washed away his drunkenness. It also washed away the dirt and sweat stains on his body. After turning off the showerhead, he began to wait patiently for the next drying step, and he didn't even need to move the whole bathing process. Just stand and wait, and everything inside will do everything for him automatically. By the time he walked out of the bathroom, he was refreshed and full of energy. He was dressed on one side. The mind was still working, trying to convince himself that what Frank had told him was true and that she was really alive. Thinking of this, he became short of breath.
Is she really alive? Renault said in his heart.
He steadied himself, and when he was dressed, he was on his way to the bridge
The Hyperion was a large ship with a tonnage of nearly two million tons, a giant battlecruiser with plenty of room to stock up on weapons and other material resources, after all, it was once the flagship of Monsk.
On the other side, Frank came out of the bar and went straight to the bridge, where the two of them stayed for the rest of the night, and now it was time to go to work.
Frank jumped briskly up the wide ladder to the topmost command level, where the heavy doors opened sideways and he entered the bridge. The Hyperion is as glitzy as the captain's quarters, imagine a cabaret with a ring of monitors and control panels, or a ballroom full of operating stations. One decorated with tiles and planks, covered with velvet and silk, this is the bridge of the "Hyperion".
"Sir!"
Next to the main console, the conductor chair is Matt. Horner gave him a military salute and prepared to stand up to make room for him. Frank stopped, signaling that he didn't need to.
In Frank's impression, Maite is of good character, but he is too young and a little idealistic, and he joined the "Son of Keha" purely to change the current corrupt human Shijie and make all mankind move towards a more beautiful future, and until now Horner still believes that what he did at that time was all for the future of mankind and the cause of justice. He'll figure it out someday, Frank thought to himself, though he didn't think it was a good thing to look too far into the future. But there is no doubt that at the moment Matt is a pretty good lieutenant commander and a great captain.
"All is normal, sir! Waiting for your command! Matt reported, Frank nodded, leaning towards the main console between the command chair and the control panel, as if thinking about something, and Horner stopped talking.
After a while, Renault also came to the bridge, his dress remained unchanged, a white short-sleeved vest with a circle of magazines and shock bombs, a revolver at his waist, a pair of jeans, and a dragon tattoo on his bare arm.
"Sir!" Matt gave a neat military salute before continuing, "Waiting for your orders!" β
"Free and easy! Matt! Renault said tepidly.
Renault immediately saw the undisguised disappointment on Horner's face, and a strong sense of guilt surrounded him again. He'd seen it many times over the past few weeks, from Horner's face or someone else's face. They were so desperate to follow Him, simply because they believed they could lead them to do the right thing. But the current situation is like this, just let them fall into endless waiting here, drifting aimlessly between the stars for more than a month, every day is free movement, such a waste of time with nothing to do, just wait for Arcturus to track down their approximate location, and then send a fleet to destroy them.
Ranger weishenme can't do something? It's better to do anything than to do nothing all the time. Renault knows everyone thinks so.
Every morning, when he or Frank came to the bridge, Horner would ask them for instructions, but they couldn't think of them every day. From the day they broke away from the "Son of Keha", the members of the Rangers seemed to have lost their sense of direction. It's obviously the right thing to do to turn the other cheek with Mengsk, and everyone is convinced of that. What are you doing against Mengsk? Both Frank and Renault felt that now was not the time to attack directly, and if they didn't fight against the Empire, they couldn't find anything else to do, so they could only drift between the stars every day.
When Matt sat back in the command chair weakly, Frank, who had been silent, spoke: "We've got something to do, Matt!" β
"I need the specific coordinates of a planet, it's a planet. Matt! Frank Zuihou said.
"Sir?" Matt looked at him in surprise, his face was dazed, his eyes were full of confusion, but such a look only existed for a moment before disappearing, and then he opened his mouth wide, as if he had suddenly injected a dose of stimulant, "Yes!" Sir! I think I know! We need a place of revolution! A rallying place for people with lofty ideals! A new base for unified command operations! a"
"No, Matt. It's just a planet. Frank interrupted the young man's tirade, knowing that it wasn't a good thing to have Matt harbor false illusions, "A planet that matches my description, I'm just trying to find the exact coordinates of a planet, that's all." Frank said.
"Yes, sir!" Horner was a little disappointed, but now he knew he had at least something to do. "Ready. Sir! Horner perked up, swept away the gloom in front of him, and said.
Frank nodded, then straightened up, his arms folded, his mouth covered with one hand, and began to ponder.
"The climate of this planet is on the hot side!" "But not to the point of being unbearable, the air is relatively dense and the surface is covered in black ash, right! A planet full of volcanoes and lava, the surface is full of volcanic ash and there is no sign of life. The celestial body has one star, two moons, and a red planet with a halo nearby."
Frank easily recalled the scene in his mind, or in his dream.
"That's it! By the way, the planet is rich in crystal veins and high-energy gas sources, and even bare silica ore can be seen on the surface, oh! Also, this planet is called 'Char'. See if you can find the exact coordinates of this planet. Frank pointed to the main console and nodded...... (To be continued......)
