Without giving the reporters a chance to interview, the girl disappeared directly, and then the projection disc slowly disappeared from everyone's field of vision.

Everyone looked at the disappearing silver disc, their faces were very complicated, and I am afraid that all this today was directed by the ghost captain.

This means...... It's daunting......

"Didi!" Just then, the phone of the Minister of Defense of the Beautiful Country rang.

“Fuck！ What the hell are you doing! Why was the accession of the Beautiful Country announced? We haven't even discussed a countermeasure, so you dare to decide privately?

Who told you to do this? You're collaborators! "As soon as the phone was connected, there was a roar from there!

Because the sound was so loud, the defense minister's eardrums were hurt by the sound over there, and even some people who were close to him could hear a few words.

Everyone looked at the Minister of Defense in amazement, and the Minister of Defense was now the most confused.

The voice...... Sounds like the president?

"Uh...... Your Excellency? I don't quite understand, what is the private decision? Obviously you sent me a message asking me to announce the joining of the beautiful country? ”

"What? A message I sent you? I sent it to you to stall for time! ”

"Huh?! Can...... That's not right! The message clearly says that I want to announce my joining? This ......," the Minister of Defense said with a stunned expression, and then he reacted, "Wait, that text message is still there, I'll send it to you!" ”

But I waited for a long time, and I didn't wait for a response from the Minister of Defense on the phone.

"Huh? What about information? ”

Where did the Minister of Defense have the heart to reply at this moment, he was staring at his phone dumbfounded, "This ...... That's impossible! ”

I saw that the message was written, "Stall, wait for instructions!" ”

Minister of Defense: "......"

Could it be that I'm hallucinating? No way! It's absolutely impossible!

Wait a minute! This means...... Familiar?

He seemed to suddenly remember something, and after being stunned for a long time, his neck was a little stiff, and he turned his head to look at the place where the girl had just disappeared, and his heart was already speechless......

Why? Why only stare at the defense minister's pit? How much enmity do I have with you......

In his heart, the Minister of Defense issued a silent accusation of blood and tears against the unscrupulous master and servant......

……

"Huh?" Ma Zhe, who was far away on the moon to build the new return, suddenly sighed.

He sensed something from the moment of the quantum computer center, and couldn't help but touch his chin and mutter, "Could it be that role-playing is the right way for artificial intelligence to open?" ”

Ma Zhe put this very interesting thought down for a moment, and then looked at the newly completed skeleton of the new Return below.

The Returning now looks like a bare metal without an upper outer shell, with all sorts of compact and complex features exposed.

Its overall appearance abandons the previous trident-like streamlined shape in favor of a cigar shape.

At the same time, Ma Zhe made an advance amount, the final design tonnage of this new return is 100,000 tons, for this reason, Ma Zhe almost exhausted the mechanical insects of the various bases on the moon, and finally left only a few seeds, but only 60,000 tons, and now except for the underground mining area and some mechanical insects on the earth, these can be said to be all of Ma Zhe's troops!

Due to the lack of materials, only the general outline of one ship has been formed, and even many vacant cabins have been reserved inside, and even the weapon system has not yet begun to be built, making the nearly 500-meter-long Return look a little empty.

Even so, after upgrading the technology, even if you stand and let the previous return number beat you casually, I am afraid it will not be able to break the defense of this bare metal!

In addition to the protective performance, the maneuverability and various stealth, reconnaissance and other auxiliary abilities are also developing by leaps and bounds, surpassing the previous Return by a whole era.

The current Return, which is already a spaceship capable of traveling across galaxies in the true sense, has the ability to make initial interstellar voyages.

"Good! Bring your rations and get ready to go! Ma Zhe gave the order, and countless small robots that had been transferred began to carry a large amount of steel onto the spaceship.

The time of the astronautship is measured in months, and he will not miss any precious time to multiply, and these steel are the dry rations for the Return, which will be finalized on the way.

Eventually, a full 100,000 tons of steel filled all corners of the Return's interior, and finally it bulged up abruptly, and it was like an overloaded truck......

Not only that, but these small robots are also looking for various crevices and corners, filling the last space inside the Return with their bodies......

In addition to bringing his own dry food and labor, Ma Zhe also brought almost all the energy crystals mined during this time, a total of 60 kilograms, although it was not much, but it was enough to cope with more than a dozen high-intensity battles.

Immediately afterward, an extremely thin layer of mechanical worm membrane rose from all sides of the ship, quickly covering the upper part of the Return, sealing the Returner in its entirety.

Well...... Now it's an overloaded convertible van......

When everything was ready, Ma Zhe retrieved the small octopus that was wandering around, boarded the Return, and made his way to the built-in bridge in the center.

……

Ten minutes later, the "open-top van" return slowly lifted off and flew to the moon for half a circle...... Mars!

Although it takes nearly 2 months for the Gemini civilization's spacecraft to reach Earth, Ma Zhe naturally hopes to arrange the battlefield outside the safety of the Earth, ideally at the edge of the solar system.

Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are rocky planets.

Jupiter is a gas planet, Saturn is made up of gas and rock, Uranus is made up of rock and ice, and Neptune is similar in composition to Uranus, with a variety of "ice" and a small amount of helium rock.

The further outward you go, the lighter the planet's elements are.

This is because heavy elements are ejected during the nebula's contraction, solar formation, and eruption, and the closer you get to the star, the more abundant the heavy element.

Therefore, the content of heavy elements in the primitive astrolabe decreases with the increase of distance from the star, so rocky planets rich in heavy elements are formed near the Sun, and gaseous planets with basically the same constituent elements as the Sun are formed at a distance from the Sun.

The first round of the "Ante Empire" and the Gemini civilization is a ground battle, which requires a rocky quasar with land, and it cannot be too small.

Because most of the outer periphery are gaseous planets, harsh hurricanes and other environments are not suitable for ground warfare, so there are not many options.

Ma Zhe locked on the three most likely battlefields in the Kuiper Belt on the outer part of the solar system: many asteroids, Uranus, and Mars.

According to the original plan, he planned to complete a final replenishment on Mars, and use it as a temporary base for exposure to the other side.

So as long as the other party is not stupid, it will not choose Mars as the place of engagement, and who knows if there will be some big killing weapons arranged on it?

In this way, Ma Zhe can quietly guide the other party to move the battlefield outward.

Far away from Mars, no matter which star is chosen as the battlefield, the distance between it and the Earth is enough to ensure that the Earth is not affected by the battle, and at the same time leave a strategic buffer zone for Ma Zhe.

……

Just as Ma Zhe was thinking about the upcoming battle, the codename was also retransmitted from the temporary settlement back to the control center of the return, and the system was taken over, and at the same time, she projected the position of Ma Zhe's deputy next to her in the image of the previous girl.

"Your Excellency, the system has taken over 100%, the data is error-free, and all functions are normal!" Codenames soon entered the role.

Ma Zhe sat in the captain's chair, but did not speak, but stared at the code name with strange eyes for a long time.

Before the codename, she basically didn't have anything to do to get a projection for herself, which seemed to her to be a stupid act of wasting energy, but today she actually took the initiative to project and used this image......

"Hmm...... Ask you a question...... Do you have an urge right now to destroy all of humanity, or to keep them in captivity as biological batteries? ”

Codename: "......"

"Your Excellency, the core law you gave me is 'No mecha materials are allowed to enter'! Logically, if I do do this, there is a 99% chance that I will be physically restarted by you.

I can't understand the strange self-terminating thinking of humans at the moment, so if you want me to have such an impulse, only if you need to modify the core laws first......"

I don't know if it's Ma Zhe's delusion, but there seems to be a hint of contempt in the words of the codename......

"Haha! Jokes aside, I think you should learn about human humor first! Ma Zhe snorted.

"But where does the remaining 1% not get restarted?" He was curious again.

"According to judgment, human beings are irrational emotional creatures, and subjective emotions are usually the dominant behavior, and Your Excellency Captain is no exception!

According to the judgment of micro-expressions, the previous image of this girl made His Excellency the captain move for 0.5 seconds, and the expression data is consistent with the expression characteristics of the human male estrus period, and the captain's favorability is preliminarily determined to be +5, so there is a certain possibility that it is affected by emotional factors! ”

Ma Zhe: "......"

Hey, hey! Did you misunderstand something? That's just a stunning expression, and it definitely has nothing to do with estrus!

Although human estrus seems to start with stunning, this captain is definitely not such a superficial person!

"Ahem! Codename, you're a quick learner, but I think there's something wrong with your humor system, so it's better to fix it......"

"I'm not kidding, but you're right, Captain!"

Ma Zhe: "......"

Can the tone not be so perfunctory, and the complaining power of the code name seems to have evolved?

Sure enough, it's still the previous code name, which is more cute!

"Uh...... Well, can you put this projection away first? It's a waste of energy, isn't it? "If the previous code name was just a piece of code, but Ma Zhe now looks at this projection, it is a little awkward.

"Being together for a long time helps to strengthen the relationship, and in order to increase the favorability, this energy expenditure is worth it!"

Ma Zhe: "......"

This feeling of being played with...... It must be an illusion, right?

Do you want to add a core law to her, hmm...... Don't attack your own captain?

Ma Zhe can now determine how his own artificial intelligence will be opened...... Absolutely wrong!
