Chapter 648: 'The Flying Elephant'

Zhang Lisheng's straightforward questioning faintly revealed his estrangement from the female military intelligence officer, but Allison replied enthusiastically as if she didn't notice his attitude: "Doctor, I am on the order of General Frenwell of the Special Service Bureau of the Ministry of Defense to assist you in going to the 'Sea Shrimp II World Realm', and I am glad to have the opportunity to work with you again." ”

"Special Services," the young man frowned, "have you been transferred again, Captain Alison, what a coincidence. ”

"Yes, Doctor, I think this is what you Chinese people call 'fate'. The female officer jokingly replied on the phone: "I'm in the lobby of the Sea Emperor Hotel now, are you in the hotel?"

"No, I went home yesterday to say goodbye to my mother, and I stayed at home by the way, so you wait in the hotel lobby, and I'll rush over right away, and I'll see you later." Zhang Lisheng hung up the phone as he spoke, and when he put the phone back in his pocket, Lili, who had just fried the meatloaf and sent it to his son, asked, "Baby, are you in a hurry, otherwise I'll pack the meatloaf for you and take it away?"

"I don't need a mother, the beef patty is delicious when it's hot, and the person waiting for me is very patient, and it doesn't matter how long I wait. The young man smiled slightly, cut the meatloaf in half with a knife, and whispered.

In this way, Zhang Lisheng finished his breakfast slowly, and drove to the Neptune Building, the speed of the car was not hurried, until the sun rose before the figure finally appeared in the lobby of the Neptune Hotel.

After glancing around a few times, he immediately locked Allison, who was wearing an unusually conspicuous military uniform and skirt, with a slender and heroic posture, and the young man walked to the fountain and stretched out his hand and said sincerely, "I've kept you waiting for Alison." Oh, you're promoted again, congratulations Major, sorry, there's a bit of a traffic jam on the road. ”

"It's okay Doctor, it's a pleasure to wait in such a comfortable hotel, I don't even mind if you arrive a few hours late," the female officer stood up from the round sofa, shook hands with the black-haired young man in front of her, and said with a smile: "It's a pity that the scheduled take-off time of the space carrier is three o'clock in the afternoon." So we're going to hurry up. ”

"Space carriers. Zhang Lisheng opened his mouth in astonishment, "You mean that we are going to take the Flying Fortress to the 'Sea Shrimp No. 2 World Realm'!"

This is also too exaggerated, is the relationship between the Federation and the Atlanteans already strained to this extent?"

"It's not as serious as you think, Doctor, the Logistics Support Bureau happens to be going to 'Wuli' to transport gold recently. We're just a ride. ”

"I see. Let's go. 'Hitchhiking' is not a polite habit to make the owner wait for a long time. With a blank expression, the young man shrugged his shoulders and walked out of the hotel lobby with the female officer.

A large off-road jeep with a military license plate and driven by a black officer was already waiting in the foyer. The two of them got into the car directly and crossed half of the 'New Washington A' at a speed of 50 kilometers per hour against the city's speed limit, and rushed into the vast desert.

Under the guidance of the navigator, the jeep accelerated and continued to speed on the sand for more than an hour, and a steel giant city faintly twisted with the steaming hot air appeared on the sand dunes in the distance.

Looking at the crystallization of the most powerful weapon technology known to the earth, the young man's eyes inevitably flashed with a trace of excitement, and Alison, who was sitting next to him, pointed to the front and proudly introduced: "Doctor, that is the Flying Fortress 'Mammoth' that we are going to take today."

It is the largest in tonnage, the most firepower, and the largest number of auxiliary ships and mechanical warriors among the six space carriers in service in the Federation, and once fought the gods alone when the gods of the 'Sea Shrimp 1 World Realm' raided the Earth's orbiting satellites, and achieved a crushing victory. ”

"Is there a weapon that can compete with the gods" The first time he learned such a secret, Zhang Lisheng's expression unconsciously became strange, "Major Allison, it sounds like you are very proud of this 'elephant' that can only fly in the sky. ”

"Doctor, the space carrier is the pride of every federal soldier, and it is also the greatest guarantee for the survival of Millican," the female officer turned her head to look at the young man's side face, and said in a low voice: "The ultimate weapon equipped with every air fortress, the explosive yield of the nuclear warhead, can theoretically destroy a 'world realm'."

Behind the hundreds of 'space gates' on Earth, there may be powerful civilizations that humans cannot match, but at the last moment, no intelligent beings can prevent us from dying with them. ”

"Oh, Major, what an extreme and scoundrel you think. The young man was silent for a moment, then suddenly shook his head with a dumb smile, and shrugged at Allison.

"I'm sorry I forgot to tell you Doctor, I'm a tough hawk. The female officer smiled back and replied calmly.

While the two were talking, the car had already driven to the vicinity of the 'Mammoth', and the powerful mothership scanner automatically recognized the number of the approaching jeep, and remotely activated the communication system of the military vehicle, "TI098, TI098, please stop within a safe distance of fifty meters, identify yourself, and be checked;

Please be inspected at 50 meters. ”

"Conning Tower, Conning Tower, I'm Sergeant Chad Morlett, the TI098 pilot, and I've completed the 'Welcome Mission' and asked to return to the team. The black sergeant stepped on the brakes, let the jeep draw a short, sharp brake line on the sand, and reached for the intercom.

As soon as he finished speaking, a divergent green beam of light shot out from the top of the steel fortress a hundred meters away to encircle the jeep, and a few seconds later, in the interplay of light and shadow, the communicator in the carriage once again sounded an emotionless mechanical female voice, "Request for recognition, request for recognition, please check the sergeant's welcome home, please board the ship from the A069 channel, please board the ship from the A069 channel." ”

At the same time, a square hole was cracked in the dark metal shell of the mothership, which was more than 100 meters high, no more than five or six meters long and wide.

The black sergeant immediately restarted the jeep and slowly drove into the square hole, climbing up a long steel ramp to a 'metal plain' so large that it could not be seen as far as the eye could see.

In Allison's voice, "We're here, Doctor." At the urging of Zhang Lisheng, Zhang Lisheng pushed the door and jumped out of the car, looking around at the thousands of giant forts that were densely arranged in six or seven areas, either oval or square;

There are so many people that it can be compared to the most prosperous commercial blocks in the large oasis city of Noah's world, and the trails are marked with thick red lines and staggered vertical and horizontal;

Hundreds of burly skeletons of steel giants, fixed in a staggered and orderly manner on silver metal frames that could be raised and lowered, took a deep breath.

"How does it feel, doctor. The female officer asked.

"It's shocking, Allison, it's completely different from seeing the real thing and appreciating the Flying Fortress in a science fiction movie," the young man unexpectedly crouched, stretched out his hand to caress the metal floor that emitted a dark and obscure sheen, and muttered very sincerely, "I can feel its power."

Like you said, it's a guarantee that the Federation can rely on. ”

Hearing this, Allison stood beside Zhang Lisheng and was speechless for a long time, looking down at the black-haired young man Moths for more than ten seconds before he whispered: "Dr. Lisheng, let's go, the time to set sail is almost up, we have to hurry up and meet the captain of the 'Mammoth', General Monglia Foucault." ”

"Since it's a 'ride', of course, you should politely go and say hello to the 'driver'. Zhang Lisheng stood up and nodded, followed behind the female officer, and walked towards the semicircular protrusion building that seemed to drip on the center of the ship's hull with a huge and matchless mercury bead.

Along the way, the professional sergeants, who acted in a hurry and all seemed to be methodical, paid no attention to the two strange visitors who staggered past them, and it was not until they came within forty or fifty meters of the 'mercury bead' that guards blocked their path.

However, after quickly verifying Alison's identity, the soldier blocking the way turned into a guide, leading the female officer and the young man to the sealed 'mercury bead', and pressed a few times on a bracelet-like instrument that glittered red on his wrist, opening a passage that could accommodate at least four people side by side.

"Liquid metal?" Zhang Lisheng blurted out as he blurted out the portal that suddenly appeared on the silver wall like an opaque water curtain.

"Yes, Doctor, liquid metal with plant properties, I can't say much about the rest due to secrecy. Alison replied with a slight smile and walked into the 'mercury bead' first.

"War is really the best breeding ground for technological leaps," the young man muttered to himself, following the female officer into the massive command bay of the space carrier made of liquid metal.

Passing through a slightly sloping corridor with people coming and going, I stepped on the escalator and came to a platform with an incomparably wide view of two or three hundred advanced instruments.

Under his feet is a dark silver metal floor as soft as a plush carpet, and the ceiling and walls above his head and around his body are transparent to the size of a grain of sand.

Alison in front of him had already walked to the back of the platform with light but powerful steps, and saluted in front of an officer standing on a slightly raised platform that was no more than three or four square meters in size, with an expressionless face, a thin body, and an old-fashioned temperament of about fifty years old, "Your Excellency General Mongeria Foucault, Major Alison K. Amber of the Special Service Directorate of the Ministry of Defense reports to you. ”

"You're not my direct major, Major Alison, so you don't have to be so reserved. The captain with three gold stars hanging from the badge on his shoulder smiled with a kind attitude that was quite different from his serious appearance, and shifted his attention to the black-haired young man in civilian clothes not far away, "You must be Dr. (Zhang Lisheng)."

Hello Doctor, I am Mongeria Foucault, the commander of the Mammoth, and it is a pleasure to meet you. (To be continued......)
