Tammy Assenti, the 19th Marquis of Odegaard, is 30 years old this year and has just entered the most attractive age for a man. He is tall, has handsome features, and his silver hair is styled into a neat short haircut.
His body was wrapped in the silver and black uniform of a senior imperial officer, looking like a resolute statue.
However, although his facial features are very strong, his expression always has a kind of Chen Jing's melancholy, and his rose-red pupils are always full of thinking and calmness. This means that he will basically not be regarded as a fierce and rough warrior.
.
The young Marquis of Odegaard was indeed very hesitant, and he had hardly smiled since he took the throne.
If he had a choice in life, he definitely didn't want to be the Marquis of Rauchzi. This is really not hypocritical.
There is no need to carry the blue eagle coat of arms of the Odegaard family, no need to face the expectant eyes of the people and generations of retainers, no need to bear the glory of the ancestors, and live a happy life as an astral knight born from a noble family.
Isn't your life pretty good? Serve in the Astral Knights, spend your free time in various high-society salons, and heal the lonely and unbearable bodies and minds of rich ladies and noble ladies.
In fact, a nobleman like him who is both civilized and military, personable, and handsome is indeed the most popular type in the capital of the empire.
Then, after establishing a career as an elegant and brave imperial knight in flowing white clothes, he will research and shape his own military theory and leave his name in history as a famous general. He may even start his own family line and establish his own coat of arms.
.It doesn’t need to be a family as prestigious as the Marquis of Odegaard with a long history and a lot of troubles. A sword-wielding aristocratic family without a territory is enough. A low-level title such as Lord Baron is completely enough.
A high-class and decent person can live a life in the imperial capital.
Isn’t this kind of life delicious?
Then, he will marry his goddess, the singer lady from the Grand Opera House of the Holy Sound Palace. Yes, he, Mr. Tami Asenti, does not want to marry any noble daughter and start some super healing methods in the salon to heal their body and mind.
Friendship and marrying each other are two different things. A singer who is considerate, gentle and considerate, with a picturesque smile and a singing voice is a conscience worth spending a lifetime with. But it would be okay if I was just an ordinary noble young man. Once
Once you become the Marquis of Odegaard, you can no longer make your own decisions about your marriage. What's more, the retainers cannot accept a commoner woman becoming a marquise.
“Tell me, how come I, a third-class knight, became the Marquis of Odegaard?” He sighed deeply in his heart.
The young Marquis had just finished sighing and realized that he had lost his composure. Fortunately, he was now sitting alone in the captain's seat with a silent force field activated around him. Others on the bridge did not notice his expression -
-The bridge design of the imperial battleship is naturally very imperial. It is divided into three levels of platforms. The ordinary soldiers below and the general middle level in the middle cannot see the top level at all. Even if the captain plays multiplayer sports on it,
No one knows. The class attributes are naturally clear.
The contemporary Marquis of Odegaard soon heard the footsteps behind him. He did not look back and was still staring at the starry sky in front of him, as if he was meditating or in a daze.
The visitor seemed to have known that he would be used to it, so he directly opened the information terminal and said in a slightly soft and low voice: "Your Excellency... it has been confirmed that the pirates who went to deliver the goods are all dead. The people of Earth are in advance in the Luna galaxy.
A fleet has been deployed."
“Where is the fleet strength of the Earthlings?”
“The last information and image sent confirmed that it is not a large fleet, less than twenty ships. The largest warship is a light cruiser, but the ship type cannot be confirmed yet. Preliminary parameter analysis shows that the total mass should not exceed 100,000 tons.”
Marquis Odegar pondered for a moment: "That Rumina pirate, what's the name of Moda? How do you say it?"
“The communication cannot be connected.”
“Heh… he is indeed a typical pirate.” The Marquis sneered.
“Similarly, communications with Mr. Colmore from Rumina have also been completely interrupted.”
"...Colmo is in dire straits. Poor guy, but he can be regarded as fighting for his ideals and begging for mercy." The Marquis sighed. Speaking of which, when he was in the imperial capital, he and Lumina
The rebel leader had met him a few times and knew that he was also an excellent international student, so his impression had always been good.
"Your Excellency, your subordinate suggested that we should evacuate now. Mr. Colmore is trustworthy, but we cannot guarantee that the pirates will keep it secret! The community must have known that we are on standby here. If we continue to stay, it will be too big.
A safety hazard!”
Marquis Odegaard didn’t even think about it and refused on the spot: “This is a public star field, why can’t the imperial warships be here?”
“Strictly speaking, Your Excellency, this is not an imperial battleship, but a battleship of the Bakvi Republic.” The visitor said seriously.
Indeed, on this ship, the Bakvi birdmen account for two-thirds of the sailors. If you ignore the bridge, this is an out-and-out Bakvi warship.
"Yes! So we are here to attack the Community fleet! After defeating them, we will go to Rumina again. I must at least fully understand the situation!"
“This is an active invasion, Your Excellency.”
“The people who invaded the community were the Bakwe people. What does it have to do with the empire?”
This statement makes so much sense. Moreover, once the conflict between the Earth and the Bakvi people occurs again, the empire can take charge of the overall situation from behind and act like a responsible big country.
Of course, the premise is that they can really beat up the Community fleet in this desolate and unmonitored galaxy, not the former.
Marquis Odegaard saw the doubts of his subordinates: "With the combat power of Clear Sky level, it will be at least 50-50!"
“I thought you could at least give a number that was more promising.”
“In the casino, I dare to bet at 30%, let alone 50%. Of course, the enemy does not know the combat effectiveness of the Qingkong class, and with my wise command, it can probably be increased to 70%!”
“…Do we need to take such a risk for His Highness?”
"I am not doing it for that His Highness... Of course, his support is indeed very important to the family. However, whether it is the joint actions with the Rumina rebels, the pirates, or the cooperation with that His Highness,
Just by the way. Kolmo's life and death has nothing to do with me!" Marquis Odegar pointed to his eyes: "...I must use my own eyes to confirm whether the imperial warship can really successfully pass through this area.
The Chaos Nebula known as the restricted area! Now, we are just one step away from success. However, how many people in history have fallen on the last step? I can't give up!"
The man sighed and was about to say something when he heard the Marquis say again: "In addition, I really want to beat the people on Earth, very, very much! Lenon, as the hereditary retainer of the Marquis of Odegaard and the son of the family steward,
As a dignified Kyeyangkong knight, don't you want to?"
This imperial officer named "Lenon" is indeed a Kyeyang with pointed ears, a flat nose and a pair of yellow vertical pupils. This race is considered one of the human subspecies, and its body shape is larger than that of humans.
He is taller and thinner, but he is a warrior with natural supernatural power. He is especially good at controlling various stations, including various powerful beasts, and of course various armed vehicles.
In the imperial society with a clear class system and human supremacy, this powerful warrior race is very trusted by the nobles, and the treatment they receive is generally fair. In the history of the empire, there have been three Kyeyangs.
A marshal and an imperial prime minister, there are still two hereditary viscount families in the House of Arms.
“…I miss you so much, Your Excellency!”
As a family member of Odegaard’s family lineage, how could he forget the great family feud?
We must admit with respect that the Marquis of Odegaard family is indeed a very typical sword-wielding aristocrat of the empire. They are full of martial virtue and have spilled blood on the battlefield for generations. Preliminary statistics show that even nearly one-third of them are
The Marquis died on the battlefield, so the family has never been very prosperous.
As for the great family feud, we have to talk about modern times.
First of all, the Marquis of Odegaard died in battle, and he also died in the Earth's War of Independence. Also killed in the battle were his two younger brothers, a nephew, and a large number of retainers, including Lenon's
Grandfather and two uncles.
The previous Marquis of Odegaard also died in battle. He was a military adviser to the Kingdom of Cathay and died in an unexplained border conflict. The murderer was of course the Earth.
At this time, the only member of the main branch of the family was left with a single seedling that was still in its infancy.
The retainers carefully cared for this single seedling and grew it into a healthy and outstanding young man. They were overjoyed to arrange the marriage of the new Marquis, and soon found a well-matched future mistress.
However, just after his honeymoon, the Marquis, who had an excessive sense of responsibility, went to inspect the arsenal owned by the family and an explosion occurred. He was not rescued on the spot and died at the age of twenty.
This time it probably has nothing to do with people on Earth, right? However, during the subsequent investigation, a skilled worker who immigrated from Earth was arrested, and it was said that his operating errors caused the evil accident...
In short, because the previous marquis died too young, he did not leave behind any achievements. He only left behind a famous imperial family whose main family was completely extinct, and a young widow of the same age as him.
When he thought of this, Tammy Artison wanted to cry a little. He actually liked his sincere and enthusiastic distant cousin who was ten years younger than him, and he had watched the latter grow up.
"Poor cousin Nicky, and poor Miss Nice, you are just newly married...but why does the housekeeper insist on letting me take over!"
When he thought of his dead little cousin, the past marquises, the happy life that was about to go away, and the singer lady who was about to go away, Marquis Odegaard felt that life was so hard, and he couldn't wait to destroy something.
thing.
"The people from the Earth may come, or they may not come! But I sincerely pray to the spirit of the universe, it must be the former! Let the battleship enter the asteroid belt and enter a state of electromagnetic silence! The kinetic energy main gun starts charging and prepares the proton torpedo!"
He looked at his Chiyyan adjutant and gave his first order before the battle.
“Also, prepare the carrier-based aircraft for takeoff!”
Lenon stood at attention, saluted, and passed on the Marquis' order in a murderous tone.
Fortunately, all these arrangements were not in vain. When they drove the Clear Sky-class heavy cruiser, which was still in the experimental stage, and slowly hid in the icy asteroid belt, they did detect an asteroid coming from the direction of Luna.

Since it cannot be a pirate fleet, of course it can only be a community fleet.
