270. Emergency braking

Li Oz fell silent.

Even in the 6th narrative itself, the probability of encountering the Void Lord is not as high as the probability of seeing the men's toilet in the Frost Plating University.

How did he run into it?

"However, it was discovered early enough, and the evasion was opened in time, and the galaxy where the Void Lord was located was designated as a no-fly zone, leaving some people to establish an outpost."

Although Li Oz is a little depressed, he still has his own way of dealing with this kind of thing:

"I'll report this to the Interstellar Alliance later, and they might be interested in the Void Lord."

That's the benefit of being a member of the Star Alliance.

Li Aozi paid the membership fee for fifty years in one go, plus he has a sweet mouth and a good reputation in the Interstellar Alliance, and after this matter is reported, the three narrative-level civilizations may also pay attention to this matter.

The advantage of high [charm] is that the diplomatic environment is good.

"There are still some problems."

Without waiting for Li Oz to breathe a sigh of relief, Grand Engineer Addison continued to report:

"When they passed through the parhelion system before, they observed a group of crystalline creatures on some planets, although they have not formed a civilization, but their number and strength are huge, should we establish an observatory for research?"

"Crystalline creatures? They are very valuable phantom beasts, and studying them should be of great help to our magic industry and biotechnology, and of course we need to send researchers to observe them. ”

Li Aozi's eyes lit up, which was good news.

"Okay, then, here's our preliminary budget ......"

Eddison sent over the budget request form, and Oz's smile immediately froze.

"That's not a small amount......

Li Oz tangled.

In order to support the expedition, he spent a lot of money on hand, and now there are fewer than the number of men's toilets at Frost Plating University.

However, this discovery is still very important, Li Aozi gritted his teeth, waved his pen, and signed for approval.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, and there are some projects ahead, please take a look at them."

With a straight face, Edison reported clearly:

"Unknown mechanical swarms have appeared on Route L-589, and they have been observed to attack carbon-based organisms indiscriminately, should we intervene......"

"A planet has sent an exploration satellite into outer space and played music, and amazingly, their music has some magical power comparable to magic......"

"Ten days ago, Team X marked a dome planet, and they used nanomaterials and light-transmitting films to seal off their home planet to prevent themselves from being detected by aliens, and we speculate that this may have been an observation point for an advanced civilization, whether to make contact......

More and more problems and incidents are backlogged, giving Li Oz a headache.

The headache is still secondary, the point is, he is running out of money.

“…… These news can be put out. ”

Li Oz thought for a moment and said:

"Give our people a little more confidence and let them know that our astronautics are really making progress."

"So the budget for scientific research ......"

"Money is not a problem."

In the middle of the meeting, Mr. Leoz stood up and let the officials discuss it on their own, before turning to leave and return to his office.

He raised his hand and removed the crimson sword hanging on the wall, which Li Oz hadn't done much in the past five years due to the need for sedimentation.

This saber that Ledvedence handed him was never really used.

Li Oz held the scabbard of his sword and looked at him deeply.

As Zeta (6), he really wants to farm again and develop for a while, and it is the best choice to stay all the way to the Kappa level.

But now it seems that the funding gap is still too large, and the income of the expedition will not be recovered until at least a year later, and the government will run a deficit after only one year in office, which will deal a serious blow to the confidence and loyalty of the people.

You'll have to let him go out himself.

Just as Leoz was about to contact Valkyrie Fortress to find some order to do, the communication suddenly rang, and when he opened it, he saw that it was Nikita calling, and then pressed answer:

"Hey, President, didn't you find a suitable assistant before? We've got you guys coming over. ”

"How's it going?"

Li Oz came to the spirit, he has been too busy lately, and an assistant is just to help him sit in the center.

"Graduated from a prestigious school in the Crystal Tower, has excellent academic performance, has reached the Zeta level (6), has an internship experience in a high-level workshop, and has just retired from the front. The image is first-class, too, and it is suitable as a secretarial assistant. ”

Nikita said eagerly:

"It's hard to find this condition now, I know magic, I have a high education, I have a good image, and I have been on the battlefield. The key is that her ancestral home is still from the White Candle Star, and she is still emotionally biased towards us. ”

"Yes, but I need an interview."

Li Oz nodded.

"No problem, she's waiting on the ground floor of the government building right now. I had some preliminary talks with her, and she was still a good person. ”

"Then bring her to my office."

Li Oz put away his weapon and sat down, ready to consider the new person for the interview.

For him, there is no need to worry about loyalty, the existence of [Expertise, Arbitrariness], coupled with his strong personal [Charisma], the hired talents will not betray him.

As for the assistant, if the assistant is too good, when the time comes, someone will dig the corner, Li Aozi doesn't care, someone digs to show that he has chosen the right person.

While he was taking care of his business, he waited for the other party to arrive.

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door, and Nikita's voice was heard.

"Please come in." Li Oz put down his pen and looked up at the person who pushed the door in.

……………………

"Ceasefire."

Qijuzi Star Field, a galaxy codenamed 'Red Pupil'.

When the X-Fleet entered the area, it was suddenly confronted by a mysterious signal detection, and before they could carry out counter-reconnaissance activities, a large number of strangely shaped warplanes launched an air attack on them from the far side of the planet.

The commander-in-chief of the fleet, Dalyan Leonin, sensed the raid in time and organized anti-aircraft fire coverage.

Although the flagship model is old, it still has sufficient firepower, and it is easy to eliminate these fighters.

However, just as he sent the Adventist troops to recover the wreckage of the warplanes, the butterflies disappeared under their noses.

"It's really evil."

First mate and helmsman Shien Yang muttered:

"Our Brains proved that we had a hit feedback that did cause the wreckage, but looking at the footage, it was as if our recovery members disappeared as soon as they touched their remains. It's a strange thing. ”

"Maybe it's because of the special materials, but anyway, at least it proves that this galaxy is alive, and we've come to the right place."

Commander-in-Chief Dalyan's Chin:

"Since we can't say what it is, let's move forward cautiously, first go to the main star of this galaxy to rest for a while, unfold the energy gathering array, transform some materials, and then explore slowly."

"Yes, sir."

In the following period, the X-Fleet smoothly carried out the voyage mission, collected resources by capturing asteroids, and built a small observatory in orbit near the sun. The mages converted water, organic matter, and fat through solar energy, and then combined with the collected resources and the greenhouse cultivated by the battleship itself, to generate enough survival materials.

At this time, the officers and men of the ship immediately remembered the days of the Crystal Tower, as a magical civilization, they never cooked by themselves at that time, and whatever food they wanted, they directly teleported or transformed it through magic.

Now, however, their food standards have been almost two centuries back, and a large amount of synthetic food is crushed and mixed into a pile of monotonous toothpaste for easy storage, and all kinds of carbonated drinks are enough because of the abundance of self-produced sugar.

Vegetables are strictly available in limited quantities, and fruits are only available in citrus and apples, and there were originally bananas, but because the Ministry of Agriculture brought the wrong variety, their bananas are now stored as staple food.

However, in order to strictly prevent fires, alcohol had to be strictly controlled, which made many officers and men who were accustomed to life on the shore miserable.

The time of space travel is boring and boring, and at first I will be shocked by the endless starry sky, but slowly I get used to it, but because of the military's non-disclosure agreement, the means of entertainment are quite scarce, and I can only use the internal network to browse the news.

Even if they choose to sleep, they will be woken up after a period of time and undergo rehabilitation training to maintain their combat quality.

It should be said that among the military services of various countries, the Space Army is the best at spending the most money and dissatisfying everyone.

The officers above and the officials of the Ministry of Defense were worried that all kinds of problems would arise, and they were afraid that they would be ruined, so they kept increasing their safety precautions, causing various projects to become boring.

You can't do this, you can't do that, the life of the Space Army is extremely boring, and stabilizing the emotions of his subordinates is a headache for the fleet commander.

However, for the X-Fleet, this situation is not a cause for concern at all.

Because their crews, mainly Adventists.
