Chapter 807: Daytime Flowing Fire
After watching her father take her mother and her co-workers onto the rail car leading to the mine, Goliath looked up at the safety guard tower built on top of the mountain.
This watchtower can take in every move within a radius of dozens of miles.
At this time, in the gradually brightening skylight, the lights of the watchtower were still not extinguished, but constantly moving around the dam in front of the mine.
When the searchlight moved to her, Goliath smiled at the corner of her mouth and waved towards the end of the light, and then she walked briskly to the stairs up the mountain.
The light grasped her intentions and began to light her direction along the way.
The small round mountain was not high, only about a hundred meters, and soon Goliath reached the platform at the top of the mountain.
From afar, a voice laughed and quipped: "Goliath, aren't you a Kanban girl today?" ”
"Closed today. Uncle Kedar, open the door. ”
The door creaked open, and a middle-aged Carat walked out of the post with a smile on his face.
"You don't want to help me keep watch, do you?"
"Is that okay?"
"No, you can't." The guard named Kedar shook his head regretfully: "Recently, the drone has been strictly checked, and I don't dare to leave my post." ”
"That'...... Can I play inside? ”
"You can play, but what's the fun here?"
"I'm going to use that."
Golia pointed to the telescope set up in the window: "The teacher gave me an assignment for astronomical observations, I want to think about it, only you can hope for telescopes." ”
The guard was stunned for a moment and laughed: "This sentry telescope is magnified by a maximum of eighty times, besides, the sky is almost dawn, can you see the stars?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay."
"But you used it, what should I do?" Kedar smiled and poured a glass of water for Golia: "I don't have anything here, so I'm counting on the telescope to pass the time." ”
"How about I lend this to you?"
Gloria untied her backpack and handed him a palm-sized optical screen device.
"The handheld game console produced by Frost Star contains 3,000 games of all kinds, so you will never get tired of playing them."
After Kedar was stunned, his eyes immediately straightened.
……
The watchtower is not big, only about 20 square meters, and there is a bed, a filing cabinet, a desk and a pile of daily necessities for cooking on a fire.
The telescope was placed in the window, and the lens was pointed at the city ten kilometers away.
Gloria leaned over the binoculars and saw that in the center of the shot was the window of a bar's bathroom.
"Uncle Kedar is really Yaxing."
"Ahem...... Cough...... Here's what those little bunnies tune in - how is this different from the game consoles in the city? ”
"This is a high-end product, with a system, I'll find you one."
After calling up a game to Kedar, she lifted the camera and pointed it at the eastern sky.
Of course, an eighty-fold optical telescope could not see the battlefield hundreds of light-seconds away, but she could determine whether the bright spots that had gradually dimmed in the skylight were battleships.
Holding her breath, she slowly adjusted her focus and ......
She saw the bright spots, and began to move slowly in the direction of the base.
"Gloria, how is this game going to be played?"
"You just press it."
Gloria replied without looking back, and she looked up and looked to the west.
That was the direction of the base, and the telescope was out of reach.
"Uncle Kedar, I'm going to move the telescope to the roof."
"That's not going to work - what if the drone will check the post?"
"It's okay, I have a work card."
"You're responsible for what went wrong."
"Stingy, I'm responsible!"
The guard raised his head and said with a smile: "You are a student of the Prophet of the Temple, even the old men of the Temple will not treat you badly, you are indeed responsible." ”
Goliath: "......"
……
Gloria climbed to the roof of the house with the binoculars and frames, and just as she set up the binoculars, a cold morning breeze blew, and she shivered.
But she didn't mind, and sat down on the roof and pointed her binoculars at the base.
Through the gap in the clouds, you can see the base at the top of the clouds.
She slowly adjusted her position, and began to search for the base's dock and jump tower from memory.
Time passed minute by minute, and finally, when the sun had fully risen, dispelling the faint fog and thin clouds in the sky, she saw the leap tower hidden behind half of the clouds.
I also saw the passage ship parked in front of the jump tower.
Although the passage ship was very small, she still recognized the ship...... It belongs to the base.
Do you want to go?
The moment the thought arose in Golia's mind, the backpack behind her suddenly buzzed and vibrate, pulling her thoughts back sharply.
After inhaling hard, Goliath quickly opened her backpack.
She knew it was a message from the communicator.
Sure enough, when she took out the communicator, she saw that Liana's name was displayed on it.
However...... Just as she was about to reach for the button, she stopped and looked at the sky.
Her heart began to pound violently.
- If she guessed correctly, the teacher should be...... One last call to let her go!
Silent, Gloria bit her lip vigorously and stared at the name on the communicator, but the whole person did not move.
She knew that if the teacher finally offered to send her family away at this time, and then she would refuse...... I'm afraid I can't say anything more.
The communicator rang for a full minute before finally stopping.
Gloria closed her eyes and let out a long breath - it was the first time she had refused Liana's call.
After a few hard breaths, she put the communicator away and began to continue observing the sky at the base.
The sun is gradually rising, and the warmth will shine on the earth.
Gloria watched in the sky, one ship after another began to burrow into the jump tower and then vanished.
She also saw that those star-like battleships finally appeared in sight, and then began to reorganize with the base as the center.
But Goliath did not leave the telescope, and she cruined the eastern sky with the telescope, almost greedily, trying to see in the sunlight the battleship she had been looking forward to for countless days and nights.
Finally......
Just as her eyes were stung by the sun, patches of shining light appeared from the east.
……
Over Ella, the USS Mercury is the Helicarrier.
In the combat command room, Yang Wenzhi stood at the conference table, supporting the table with both hands, and the whole person was imposing.
In fact, not only him, but the entire war room, there was an indescribable atmosphere - of course, there was joy and happiness, but more of it was a pride visible to the naked eye.
Yes, pride!
"Aita, how much battle damage has been confirmed by the enemy ship?"
"Report to the commander, it has been confirmed that 3,485 enemy ships have been destroyed, and the remaining enemy ships have left the airspace of the 'Phantom''s planned attack."
"Well, the remaining quantity is fine, right?"
"The remaining numbers have been confirmed, and the enemy is being evacuated in an orderly manner."
With Ita's voice, Yang Wenzhi's gaze fell on the star map descending from the table.
This star map is exactly the ...... they are currently in The Ella System!
- After five hours of cleaning, the "Ghost" completely emptied the warships in the airspace set up by the entire jump point, clearing a safe and even quiet starry sky for the warships of the human alliance.
At this time, the side of the Mercury was already full of wreckage of enemy ships, and their proximity and dense arrangement made people feel infinite emotion when they saw it.
Such a powerful fleet was completely defeated by a small "proton" of human beings......
In the past, how dare you think of this?
Of course, it is not accurate to say that it is completely emptied.
Because the enemy is not stupid.
When they realized that the opponent they were facing was an unseen, powerful ghost, the enemy began to retreat.
But even then, they left behind the wreckage of more than three thousand battleships.
"The enemy looks like they want to fight us?"
Yang Wenzhi looked at the location of Base 31 - the enemy's remaining thousands of warships were forming a defensive formation around a space city in orbit on the planet Ella.
Obviously, the enemy still wants to resist.
"It stands to reason that they should retain their strength, right?"
"I also think, is there some trap on them?"
"What can be the trap? The few thousand ships they have left, even if we don't have ghosts, we can destroy them with just our more than a thousand warships......"
Everyone was talking about each other, but they couldn't come up with a reason.
Of course, none of this matters.
Completely emptying the Ella Star Domain is a task that must be completed today!
Because once the 31st base of Ella is completely taken, humanity can logically, even bloodlessly, take down the other four servant systems - for this reason, humanity has left a fleet of 100 warships as a backup, and is using Frost Star as the frontline base camp and heading towards several other servant systems.
According to Kreuz's words, if Ella is completely taken and Base 31 is completely destroyed, it means that the power of the empire will disappear in the Virgo Supercluster. The remaining so-called servant galaxies...... Nature will return to where they rightfully belong.
On a cosmic scale, a large supergroup of galaxies is even inferior to a small town on a national scale.
Everyone is a fellow countryman.
At this time, the eight fleets of Group A, totaling more than 1,500 warships, were slaughtering the enemy's position.
Time passed slowly, but the enemy showed no signs of retreating.
At this moment, the Governor of the Silver Moon Fleet, Aisara, suddenly frowned: "Old Yang, is it possible that the enemy doesn't want to run, but they can't run away?" ”
"How?"
"If they want to retreat through the jump device, they won't have time and energy."
"And let them fight guerrillas...... Obviously even less likely - if we are on the side of the enemy...... A few hours ago, half of the battleships were directly killed by unknown weapons, you say, how dare they fight guerrillas? ”
"Now our fleet has appeared. It's better to pack up the remnants and fight hard! ”
Azhara said as she pointed to the location of the base on the star map.
"The enemy still has super warships, at least, they still have the capital to fight a conventional war."
Yang Wenzhi looked at the enemy's formation, muttered for a few seconds, and then nodded slowly.
But then, he snorted softly.
"Is that capital?"
"Smir, wait for the second generation of rice grains directly and lock all super battleships."
A smile appeared on the corner of Yang Wenzhi's mouth: "Let's not pretend, it's a showdown." ”
At this moment, the new war ceremonies of the Kra clan, Helko's deputy and successor, Borali Reiji, who had remained unusually calm since entering the Ella system, suddenly raised his head.
"General Yang, can you guarantee ...... Is the planet safe? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned! At the same time, he looked towards Yang Wenzhi.
Yang Wenzhi's brows instantly twisted.
He knew, enter the planet of Ella and save the Kra people...... Not only is the "righteousness" of the entire Allied action, but also from the perspective of human emotions, ensuring the safety of the planet and the safety of the entire Kra remnants is also the top priority.
Ye Ming has reminded him many times.
Even, the "ghost" could have completely emptied the entire star field, including the executor's base.
However, it only emptied the star field outside the jump wormhole.
Why?
Or for fear of accidentally hurting the ground.
What if there was that kind of surprise rescue and the hostages were all dead...... Then they would be sinners.
There was silence in the meeting room.
A few seconds later, Ye Ming's voice sounded calmly.
"As long as the firepower is strong enough, the wreckage of the enemy ship will at most turn into a meteor shower, and there will be no asteroid collision with the planet."
"Then we ......"
"Let's go!"
……
On the top of the watchtower, Golia's eyes widened, holding her breath, and she looked greedily at the camera.
In the footage, she can even see those human warships that look like silver bugs!
She clenched her fists nervously, her whole mind was completely on the human warship, and at the same time, she began to reverie about the arrival of humans.
Well...... The teacher of mankind will definitely come!
"Golia!"
Her father's voice sounded below, waking Golia from her reverie.
"It's lunch, what are you doing?"
Father holding a boxed lunch in his hand.
Gloria stood up, but stumbled suddenly.
"Silly child......" The father glared at her dotingly, and then glanced hard at the sky, his face full of anxiety: "Do you see anything?" ”
"Daddy, I saw it." Gloria fell backwards from the wooden ladder, took the lunch, looked back at Kedar, who was still playing the game, she inhaled hard, and said softly, "Here it is." ”
"Really here?"
"Hmm...... And ......" Golia clenched her fists and raised them to her chest, the excitement on her face was incomparable: "It's really amazing! ”
“…… The ......father looked up at the sky, and his brows furrowed deeply: "You better go down with us." ”
"No, I'm going to see ...... with my own eyes," Gloria said, looking at the sky.
And then...... Before she could finish speaking, she saw an indescribable flash of light rise in the air.
Even on a sunny day, this flash of light is incomparable.
After she was stunned for a moment, she immediately put down her lunch box, climbed to the roof in three or two steps, and looked into the binoculars.
In the shot, there was another flash of light......
And then...... It was a myriad of rays of light that rose.
"It's a meteor!"
In the sky, meteors began to pierce the sky.
