The spaceship leaped out of the void, and the wormhole behind it turned into a brilliant ribbon of light, slowly retracted, and finally turned into nothingness.

Soft music sounded in the cabin, and a pleasant female voice repeated the reminder: "We are currently located in the Fishing Lantern Star Field, 15 light-years away from the N7709 galaxy. We'll need to make two more jumps to reach the final destination of the trip, the Captain System. There are still 45 minutes until the next jump, so you can move freely, but please be prepared 10 minutes before the jump. Before arriving in the Captain's Galaxy, we will not be able to establish contact with other star fields of the dynasty for the time being, please forgive me. ”

Chu Jungui slowly opened his eyes, and in his pupils, he could faintly see the orbital base that he had just escaped, and countless spaceships were evacuating in a hurry. The scene shifts to the forward camp on the planet's surface, with flames and corpses everywhere, civilian personnel rushing to the evacuation area in panic, and the wounded being carried in from outside the camp. There were a lot of people gathered in the evacuation area, but there were so few transport ships.

The picture slowly faded, Chu Jungui closed his eyes, and after a while, the spaceship shook, and then the surroundings fell into absolute silence. The spaceship enters the wormhole again and begins to space jump.

After two jumps, an orange star appears in front of the ship, and the Captain's galaxy has arrived.

The spacecraft entered sub-light speeds, and after entering the galaxy, it began to slow down, and finally flew to Planet 7, where it docked on the orbital station.

The orbital station is much smaller than the orbital base of the N7709 system, and can only accommodate about a few thousand people. The station is used for both military and civilian purposes, and is used for transit in space and on planetary surfaces. Giant transport ships that can't make it into planetary orbit will dock here to load and unload cargo. The supplies are sent to the planet by small transport ships. Commodities produced by the planets will also be transported to the orbital station before being sent to other star fields of the dynasty.

After the transport ship entered the port, Chu Jungui got off the ship under the guidance of the beacon and came to the designated area of the wharf.

The two officers were already waiting here, and after scanning Chu Jungui's identity information, one of them said, "General Lu Shan of the Special Operations Department wants to see you, please come with me." ”

Chu Jungui followed the officer to board the shuttle and stopped at the door of a building about ten minutes later. The officer took Chu Jungui into an office and said, "General Lu is inside, and he will come out to see you soon." ”

The officer said that he retreated, leaving Chu Jungui to wait alone.

The office is plainly decorated, even a little shabby, and does not look like it is in permanent use. The door was closed, and General Lu didn't know what to do.

Chu Jungui put his hand on the arm of the chair and sat rigorously and relaxedly.

In the inner office, a middle-aged man in a general's uniform was standing at his desk, rubbing his chin vigorously, and shouting to the screen in front of him: "I ask for another confirmation! ”

On the screen is an old man with gray hair and wrinkles on his face like mountains and ravines. His reaction was a little sluggish, and he said slowly: "The mission has been confirmed, let's carry it out." ”

"At least need to inform Akatomi-sama and ask for his opinion?"

The old man seemed to doze off for a while, and only after a few minutes did he say, "He has now entered the space jump, and I'm afraid he won't be able to contact him for a few days." By the way, this task does not require his authorization. ”

"Don't you need it?" General Lu's face was a little strange.

The old man finally lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, and something sharp seemed to flash from the depths of his pupils. However, this bit of sharpness only appeared for a moment, so fast that one wondered if it had actually appeared, and then it was replaced by a cloudy gaze. "You've asked a lot of questions that shouldn't be asked. This is the Special Operations Division, not any other department of the dynasty, so don't ask too much about things that are not within your purview. ”

"But...... I understand. General Lu turned off the screen and stood for a moment before walking out of the office and coming to Chu Jungui.

He looked Chu Jungui up and down and said, "I'm Lu Shan." ”

"General Lu. ”

"No, no salute. We are not affiliated with each other. I'm here just to inform you of the content of a mission and to see if your current condition meets the requirements of the mission. Before I post a task, I need to scan your physical condition. ”

Chu Jun got up and stood in the center of the room, after Lu Shan scanned it with his personal terminal, he looked at the data and nodded: "Although there are injuries, there are no injuries that cannot be healed, yes, the body is qualified." This is the content of the mission. ”

A document was transmitted to Chu Jungui's personal terminal, and after a series of extremely complex decryptions by the chip, the content of the mission finally appeared.

After carefully reading the content of the task, Chu Jungui was stunned, "This task...... Is it serious?"

“...... Yes. Lu Shan's face was expressionless.

Chu Jungui frowned, and wanted to refuse, but he couldn't find the option to refuse for a while. It's not the same as a normal mission.

"I'm a third-order agent, so there shouldn't be a mandatory task, right?"

"Of course. ”

"And what's going on with this mission?"

Lu Shan was still expressionless, "The specific inside story is beyond my authority." The only thing I can say is that, as an agent, in the current situation, you can choose not to accept it. ”

Chu Jungui frowned, and was about to ignore this task when he suddenly saw that a certain number in the task information seemed to jump. His heart moved, and he locked on to that number: task pay.

Seeing the task reward, Chu Jungui was taken aback again, and this number just jumped up.

Lu Shan couldn't help coughing and said again, "You can choose not to accept it, I can help you handle it." ”

Chu Jungui nodded slightly.

Lu Shan's facial expression changed very slightly. The focus of Chu Jungui's gaze was not on his face, but he still took in the slightest change in expression.

"He's expecting your refusal. "After the analysis, tactical deception came to a conclusion.

"Is this conclusion reliable?" Chu Jungui was a little skeptical.

"With my current version, most scammers can see through it at a glance. "The tactical deception component is very confident.

Chu Jungui made a decision, raised his head and said, "I accept it." ”

"It's good not to accept it...... What? You accept it?!" Lu Shan's voice was uncontrollably a little higher.

"Yes. ”

"I think you should think about it again. Think about the present, think about the present, just 30 light-years away, and we're in a showdown with the Federation......!

Chu Jungui looked at Lu Shan quietly.

Lu Shan suddenly realized that he was a little too excited, quickly collected his emotions, and said expressionlessly: "Just now it was just my personal suggestion, everything is still based on your decision." I just hope you'll consider my suggestion. ”

Chu Jungui still looked at him quietly, and then said, "Don't think about it." ”

Lu Shan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly: "If you refuse, then you will reap my friendship in the future." Wouldn't it be nice to have one more friend in the Special Operations Division?"

"Not good. ”
