Chapter 390: Follow-up

Not long afterward, the three fortresses and several commercial stars around them completely fell, and the wormhole began to operate efficiently, constantly spewing out the follow-up legion power.

In the next few hours, a total of more than 100 Yaoyang-class motherships, more than 700 attack capital ships, and more than 1,000 large and small high-speed destroyers came out of the wormhole and came to this area.

They are not densely packed with the sky in terms of numbers, but they are more than generations higher than the wormhole garrisons in terms of technology, and have caused those who advocated surrender from the beginning to cry out for 'foresight'.

These ships can be roughly divided into three fleets of the same tier, and they will come to this field in different orders, and will also carry out subsequent missions in different cooperation.

The first to drill out of the wormhole was the entire force of the advance army of this campaign, that is, the fleet led by the commander of the Wild Yama Mano;

It was clear that their Mano commander was a character accustomed to charging forward, and had personally participated in the infiltration before the arrival of his main force, acting as a role similar to that of the 'vanguard of the vanguard'.

~~~~~~

At this moment, a special meeting was being held in the Sunshine-class flagship under Mano Zuo, and stereoscopic images of the commanders of the other two combat fleets of the same rank also appeared here;

It is striking that in addition to Mano's tall body, which resembles the image of the demon in China, the other two commanders also have their own unique body structures.

One of them is the image of a crystalline giant who is also very tall.

I don't know if it is the result of natural evolution or the reason of acquired choice, this crystalline giant coincidentally has limbs and torso similar to that of a human, but it looks like a half-finished sculpture that has only been roughly carved;

Specifically, the whole body is composed of smooth crystals with sharp edges and corners, and there is nothing on it that can resemble pores, let alone the other eyes, ears, mouth, nose and anus, which are very important to 'people'.

However, it is also clear from the communication that is going on smoothly at the moment that he has no obvious flaws in his overall operation, and is even quite efficient as a living being.

In the body made of large pieces of transparent crystal-like material, you can also see that the lines like light beams are spreading outward from the many opaque crystals within it, and whenever he thinks or is represented by the translator to express the common language, it is obvious that more beams of lines will originate densely from different opaque crystals, and then quickly transmit to the rest of the surrounding crystals at a speed of several tenths of a time of light.

If we take this phenomenon as one of the reference items, and then consider the agility and thinking speed it shows at the moment, we may be able to preliminarily deduce the approximate effect of these 'beams' and 'opaque crystals', and perhaps their positioning in his body will be similar to that of the brain and nerves of flesh and blood.

~~~~~~~~

Compared to the previous crystallized life, the image of the other next person will look a little ordinary.

The transparent cube made of unknown materials is full of water waves, with a large number of seaweed-type plants such as dark green, purple and red winding upwards from the bottom of the cube, and occasionally strange aquatic animals can be seen chasing, fleeing and waiting in the 'seaweed';

At this time, as a certain seaweed suddenly and automatically separated to both sides, you can see a beautiful figure swinging from the waves and the swollen fish swimming slowly;

The scaly fish-like half of its body swayed up and down, and its body swirled gracefully but swiftly to the edge, and then half lay down in a two-page open shell.

~~~~~~~~

At this moment, Manosreki was pouting his hideous mouth with some disdain, he didn't seem to like one or all of his colleagues very much? Or is it just a habit of looking down on the weaker in comparison?

But in any case, the commander of the advance army, who was in a normal state, still relented, and said in front of the image of the two cadres of the same level of the legion,

"The plan is this, Bai Jing, your main fleet needs to reach the Granite Capital Circle quickly, and force them to remain silent and hand over the representatives of the Shattered Star Army in the most civilized way possible;"

"In addition, it is necessary to suppress the political and military forces of Granite Wen in the planet and cannot raise their heads, but at the same time, we must also pay attention to the degree and means of doing things. Now it seems that it is enough to only hurt them, after all, they will be developed into the Legion's partners in the shadows; ”

"It's probably a purpose, not to cause them too much loss of life as much as possible, so as not to create some senseless hatred that will affect Your Excellency's follow-up arrangements."

Hearing this, there was no substantive movement of the crystalline giant in the three-dimensional image, only vaguely observed that the beam inside seemed to be scattered for a very short time, and then the delayed synchronous translation came from the other side to respond.

"Bai Jing has always understood his mission, but Mano, did you become the commander-in-chief of the operation when I didn't know it? Why did you speak to me like a command? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you deaf and dumb crystallized monster can understand the 'tone', if you can really understand it, you should understand that I am discussing the details of the mission with you now!"

The dark yellow smoke began to spread around itself, and an inexplicable anger began to rise from invisible, but it was suppressed by his relatively firm mind in the following moment.

Such self-control is actually one of the important reasons why Mano's family can become cadres in the legion, but most of the remaining remaining compatriots are firmly imprisoned in the choice of path and direction due to 'false congenital' character defects.

So at this moment, Ma Nuo, who seemed to have a hot personality and was indeed prone to anger, asked in a low voice after controlling his anger in time,

"Damn it, you're provoking me? Is it this huge-looking image that gives you the courage to think you can withstand my outbursts of anger? ”

"Okay, two~"

At this moment, another beautiful lingua franca came out of the side image, and the 'mermaid' who seemed to be immersed in the water was lazily stretching her waist while softly comforting in the background of the floating bubbles.

"Don't be angry Ma Nuo, Bai Jing, he is just too sensitive to the order, he must not have the actual intention to provoke you."

"Come on, anyway, I'm most familiar with the situation here, so I'm going to sort out the follow-up actions for you and Bai Jing, the idiot, before the director arrives."

"Understood~understood~ It's not a big deal, Mano, you just say we've been listening~"

"Okay, you and I will each separate part of the forces to stay in the wormhole area, and this part of the fleet will continue to be responsible for locking communications and monitoring political, commercial and military prisoners."

Turning his head slightly, Mano glanced at Bai Jing, who had fallen into silence again, before Yu exhaled a mouthful of turbid gas and continued,

"In addition, we must continue to maintain the normal operation of the wormhole, and reduce the possibility of being found by the rest of the wormhole terminals as much as possible, which also means that new caravans will definitely arrive in the future, so the remaining forces also need to be responsible for a fleet that does not fall behind."

And in this regard, the eight-armed mermaid officer also responded and said,

"No problem, it's very simple, then leave each of them a Bright Sun Mothership and 30 main attack ships, and the rest of the small high-speed ships together to form a combined fleet to patrol and patrol, right? How about we leave a military adjutant in the middle to coordinate and cooperate? ”

After hearing this, Mano nodded his head, and then summarized his speech in a deep voice,

"In that case, there are still thirty-three star days left before the director's expected arrival here, and most of the remaining forces under our command will leave for their final destination immediately, and strive to surround them all at the base when they arrive as soon as possible."

"I'll fully cooperate~ Bai Jing, you're okay over there, right?"

Then I saw a sound coming after the light flickered, and Bai Jing, who was no longer entangled in the 'order or not', also gave an affirmative answer.

As a result, the three fleets quickly divided the sub-divisions in the ensuing time, and began to carry out the follow-up tasks in the independent, united, and liuzhong.

~~~~~~~~~~

Strictly speaking, the Nesta Warband, as a temporary unit, is not a frontal combat unit, and naturally does not directly belong to any of the three fleets on the scene.

Therefore, in the follow-up missions, the warband only relied on their own location to get some chicken-ribbed ground garrison tasks, and those capital persecution and base encirclement operations that would have more meritorious achievements were not at all allowed for the rest of the Niesta to participate, including the four arms.

But after all, opportunities need to be won in continuous struggle, and Nesta happens to be particularly good at 'fighting' methods.

In the previous fortress raids, the members of the warband 'sacrificed' about eight or nine hundred people, including both reasonable attrition due to the pursuit of data, and concealed attrition due to other parties' 'sightings';

But no matter what kind of attrition, there is one thing in common

That is, this is a kind of physical death that will only lead to the loss of identity, rather than an absolute death in many aspects of material and spirituality, and the material components of these 'dead' are also based on the principle of non-waste, and then they have been covertly merged into the flesh and blood lives of the legions on the battlefield.

For now, Nesta is unable to replace their identities immediately during the mission, nor can he speed up the accumulation of these identities through his own control;

But in fact, after swallowing tens of thousands of slaves in the past few years, he had already planned to stop this somewhat cruel assimilation method, after all, most of the slaves were just poor creatures who couldn't help themselves.

It was out of this pity and the hypocrisy that came with it that he decided to change himself to a 'picky eater' until he found a better way, at least until a new scheme similar to 'self-interest without harming him', and as much as possible to convert the target who had changed from victim to perpetrator.

This threshold can be roughly marked as 'level 0' in the clan, because based on the experience of the tens of thousands of legions he has at the moment, after upgrading to a zero rating, the individual has the opportunity to choose to transfer to the production department;

If it is more arbitrary, becoming a peripheral member who has a certain right to choose but still fights on the front line of crime, it is almost equivalent to completing his own transformation in the direction of 'perpetrator';

Of course, there are factors such as environment, education, and mental interference, but Nesta and the rest of the elves are not pacifist saviors, so this is the last concession before the new plan is released.

After these newly implanted individuals are freed from the status of slaves, some of the seeds in their bodies will begin to take root and sprout according to the 'choice' and carry out transformation, but previously they only acted as low-frequency information eyes, seeking to keep Nesta informed of the front line even from a long distance.

For those who are implanted in non-slave units, for the time being, they will continue according to the previous plan

~~~~~~~~~

Just as Nesta had thought, some of the warriors in and out of the fortress were later called back to space, and the fleet was on a follow-up mission with the two-way fleet.

In the direction of the capital area, the 11th-level commander known as Bai Jing led his army to end the leap journey in 10 star days, thus facing the defense system of the granite civilization in several core star systems;

In the ensuing battles, the detachment of the detachment of the fleet naturally showed its powerful space combat capabilities, and achieved more results in all directions as if it were devastating, and then successfully reached the capital star system and won again in the shock along the way.

At this time, most of the fleet of the Granite Civilization had been compressed to the vicinity of the stronghold, and the legion side used its own mothership and main attack ship to suppress the opponent's key planetary cities in a 'ship overling' method that would almost not be adopted under equal combat.

Later, when Bai Jing expressed his attitude of 'treating life in the planetary city as the quality' to the military and political sides of the granite in a relatively obscure way, the war between the two sides with a huge gap finally came to an end, but until this time, the legion side had never issued an ultimatum of surrender to the granite civilization, and the latter also remained silent about it in a certain helplessness and tacit understanding.

For the time being, apart from the fact that all types of ships cannot leave the port and take off, the activities of the planet inhabitants in the civilization have not been affected too much.

At the moment when the wormhole is lost, those remote star systems that have not tasted the edge of the army are also unable to set off any major waves worthy of attention in the current situation of lack of long-distance time and ultra-long-distance communication capabilities.

~~~~~~~~

When the battle in the Granite Capital came to an end, the detachment that went straight to the Shattered Star Base was still in the process of leaping and sailing.

Because the vast majority of criminal forces would rather take a long detour than establish a location far away from the bustling star field, the next part of the legion's journey needs to be timed in units of 'galactic years'.

But just when Nesta thought there would be a lull, something suddenly began to happen a few days after most of the fleet had left, and the upper echelons of the legion who remained here seemed to have become a little nervous at some point.

This tension seems to be a synthesis of maternal emotions such as self-awe, yearning, and partial fear, so its essence should not be the tension of facing a 'powerful enemy', but more like the imminent inspection of the internal high-level management?

After about a moment of visible busyness, Nesta finally learned its source from her own sight.

At some point, the wormhole was opened again, and then a seemingly small figure was seen standing in space through the wormhole in some rare manner.
