After the soldiers confirmed the identity of each other through the heraldry on the ship, the headquarters of New Port Arthur was suddenly silent. For a moment, they only felt that they were in a surreal farce. When the great When the psyker arrived, everything in front of him seemed to have lost its sense of reality.
They will indeed feel that the scene in front of them lacks realism. You must know that the tens of thousands of people who are witnessing this scene have actually never seen the eighth-ring psyker take action. What step can these world-shattering extraordinary beings achieve? In fact, there is no intuitive understanding.
However, the basic understanding formed over many years is so solid. In their understanding, the top psychics are the true gods who transcend the mortal world, and they are no longer on the same life level as them.
They clearly couldn't imagine what the leader of the Astral Knights could do when he arrived, but they felt real intimidation and oppression. Is this the origin of this surreal feeling of nihilism?
In any case, this big boss who can single-handedly intimidate an entire battleship, a top psyker who is even regarded as a true god in many late-development civilizations, has just arrived in front of everyone.
Eleanor Bonaparte looked at the people on the bridge of the Aurora. A few minutes ago, everyone was jumping left and right in full view of more than a hundred "enemy ships", laughing and cursing fearlessly. It seemed that all the Green Forest Knights were high. But now, none of them dared to breathe, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.
She didn't like this feeling very much, so she simply pulled out the pistol from her waist and slammed it on the table in front of her.
The officers on the bridge woke up from a dream and quickly switched to work mode again.
"Gunners, stay focused!"
"Radar officer, pay attention to the movements of the enemy fleet. Is there any communication from the enemy?"
"The engines remain on! The shields are warming up!"
Well, although the way everyone switches states is a bit stiff, at least they are really energetic. Now that the bridge is energetic, the entire Aurora is also energetic.
Eleanor nodded with satisfaction. After all, we were all mortals, and she didn't mind everyone showing instinctive fear because of the sudden arrival of Duke Sadolan, but as long as they knew their shame, it was enough for the soldiers.
Thinking of this, she ordered: "Activate the bow rail gun and aim at the cruise ship."
The captain was slightly startled, looked at the commander to confirm again, and then repeated the order.
On the other side of the new Lushun headquarters, Yang Xiyi himself almost laughed out loud.
Who is Duke Sartolan? One of the most important weapons of the empire! The action of such a figure is even more disturbing than the departure of the Titan ship from the mainland of the empire.
Now, he has arrived in the New World with such ease and simplicity, which actually explains a lot of problems.
When he thought of this, Yang Xiyi had an unpredictable and unrestrained smile on his face. His smile did not fade at all until Duke Sadolan's communication was transferred to the new Lushun headquarters.
"Salute to you, Your Excellency the Duke. But I don't know what beautiful scenery there is in the New World that can make you come here with such dignity?" Yang Xiyi said with a smile: "It's just that I don't know if the cruise ship you are traveling on has gone through legal entry procedures.
Procedures? Can we let border officials from my country board the ship to inspect it?"
Yang Xiyi felt that his current smile should be very annoying, and he did not expect to get any good looks from the other party. However, what surprised him was that the old man facing him in the TV picture did not look offended at all, but showed a
He smiled kindly: "You are an outstanding soldier who does his duty, General Yang."
After all, he is a long-established nobleman, at least in terms of self-cultivation, he is indeed impeccable.
At this time, the veteran general smiled again and said: "But, my ship carries a lot of precious phantoms. Young general, what do you think your men can check out even if they get on the ship?"
Yang Xiyi nodded with distress on his face: "That is indeed a headache. So, can we consider the issue of entry after the arrival of our country's psychic troops, the so-called Blue Guard members?"
"That would really delay things too much." Duke Sadolan said: "I want you to know that the reason why I suddenly crossed the border without reporting this time is because our intelligence department and Hoshimi officer have found some information that may cause a catastrophe.
The security risks of scope catastrophe. Of course, this is related to the invasion of predators and the series of terrorist attacks that occurred in our country last year."
He paused, and his voice was inexplicably heavy: "This is not just an issue for the empire, and of course it is not an issue for your country. It is related to the well-being of civilization in the entire universe. However, it doesn't sound right to say that.
With the troops and extraordinary people your country has deployed in the New World, it will be difficult to nip the disaster in its bud."
"It turns out that you are here because of such righteousness! I can only represent my country and thank you for your internationalist spirit and noble example of chivalry." Yang Xiyi laughed, very sarcastically.
However, the old Duke seemed to have no sense of the other party's eccentricity at all, and nodded grandly: "The duty of the Astral Knight is not just to protect the empire, but to protect all human beings, as well as all the wisdom in the universe bathing in the glory of civilization.
Race, this is our unshirkable responsibility. In fact, General Yang and the noble officials are also within my protection."
What's the saying? When a person is so thick-skinned that you don't know whether he is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, his words will naturally be impeccable.
Yang Xiyi felt a headache for the first time, so he put on a troubled face and said helplessly: "However, this is just your family's opinion, and it is based on your own free will. Your Excellency, this does not constitute a reasonable reason.
."
"I understand that what we are doing at this time is indeed illegal." Duke Sadolan nodded.
What’s another saying? When a bad person clearly knows that he is doing bad things, you can’t judge him from a moral perspective.
"We are sorting out the intelligence we have collected so far, but the information is so complicated that it will take time to organize it into a clear chain of evidence. It is expected that it will be presented to the Galactic Civilization Council within a month and shared with everyone.
Share. At that time, I believe that all countries will join our action." Duke Sadolan said.
Then one month later... Yang Xiyi was about to say this, but the old Duke said: "But if it is really one month later, everything will be too late. Don't worry, when the situation is over, the empire will pay due compensation.
We would like to express our apologies for this expedient."
Yang Xiyi thought to himself that the empire was indeed the suzerainty of cats and birds. Shanlun's shamelessness was already more than one rank higher than that of Lan Ling, so he just smiled and said: "I'm just a soldier. I need to fulfill my duty to protect myself."
It’s just our duty to protect our country.”
Duke Sadolan still wore a smile that was as kind as Santa Claus, but the persistence in his tone was unquestionable: "I understand, young general, and I still respect your dedication very much. But please forgive me.
I can’t tell you the truth. Disasters in mysticism can only be understood by top transcendent beings. All of this is to prevent greater disasters! As an astral knight, I am already prepared to bear some infamy.
.So, no matter what actions you make, I am willing to bear all the consequences."
He did not turn off the communication, and still had a weird smile on his face. However, the cruise ship he was on suddenly began to accelerate, and it would be within the range of the Aurora's main gun in half a minute at most.
This dangerous move actually forced the community into a very embarrassing situation.
From a legal point of view, the other party did indeed cross the line. The Earth side is fully qualified to open fire. In fact, if it were a Cathay and Bakvi warship that did this, the entire army would open fire without hesitation.
of.
However, the other party is a cruise ship, and theoretically does not have any of our civilian ships.
The passenger on the ship was an Imperial Duke, the Grand Master of the Astral Knights, and the Privy Councilor. In the empire's power structure, this was definitely one of the top ten core decision-makers, and its influence was even greater than that of many general elections.
The emperor is taller.
If the community is not determined to go to war with the Empire, it naturally cannot be determined to open fire on the Duke.
For ordinary soldiers, this is even more painful. Although they cannot understand the twists and turns of the big shots, they also instinctively know that once they fire a cannon at an imperial duke, the subsequent developments will be far beyond
My own imagination may never go back.
As for where they are going to "go back", even they themselves don't know.
Of course, Eleanor Bonaparte thought more. She stood up and glanced in the direction of the new Lushun Star Port, and clenched her fists.
Once the guns are fired and the relationship with the empire deteriorates, no one here can bear the responsibility. In this case, Teacher Yang cannot be allowed to take the blame.
Thinking of this, she secretly took a deep breath and prepared to give orders to the gunner.
But at this time, Yang Xiyi's voice sounded from the bridge: "Commodore Bonaparte, fire on the cruise ship that illegally broke into our cordon."
Eleanor was slightly startled, and a trace of respect flashed in her heart. She repeated Yang Xiyi's order loudly, and then said: "Fire!"
However, nothing happened. She looked intently and discovered that at some point, the gunners had fainted at their posts.
Her hair stood on end and her spine ran cold for a moment. However, as a determined and excellent officer, she recovered in the shortest time, and was aroused. She gritted her teeth and strode towards the operating platform.
, pushed the gunner on the gun position away and pressed the knob.
Eleanor only needed to move her fingers slightly to blast out the deadly electromagnetic cannon shells, tearing the small cruise ship into a ball of space junk in an instant.
But at this time, she felt a tremor, as if her heart was grasped by a cold iron hand, and half of her body was paralyzed. She didn't realize what happened at the first time.
I just gritted my teeth and instinctively wanted to remove the knob.
However, in her sight, she could no longer see the knob. She seemed to be in a brilliant galaxy, her body suspended in the vast and vast space, but there was nothingness in all directions, and there was nowhere at all.
Hiding.
In the distant galaxy directly in front of him, the golden-armored god stood tall and tall, as if he was the incarnation of the master of the universe.
Eleanor finally understood that she must have fallen into the trap of Duke Sadolan.
...But, there are at least hundreds of thousands of kilometers between us! Can we launch an attack like this?
She had to admit that although she was always thinking about how to use mortal power to fight against the power of psychics, she was still very superficial, and her understanding of mysticism was indeed only at the level of a primary school student.
However, even when faced with such a scene that looked like the arrival of a god, she tried hard not to fall into fainting. She proudly raised her head and faced the distant starry sky, facing the golden-armored god who seemed to be the master of the universe.
The man of God seemed a little surprised, but after a pause for a few seconds, he suddenly stretched out a hand and pressed towards Eleanor.
The latter only felt that the giant hand had only reached out a little bit, and it had already blocked all the starlight in front of him, as if it could easily crush a sun. As for himself, he was even inferior to ants and dust.
But at this moment, a pair of clear and sonorous singing suddenly sounded in her ears.
"I will beat you with a steel whip in my hand! Beat you to death, you bastard!"
For a moment, Eleanor no longer had any fear, she just felt like laughing. So she laughed heartily.
At this time, I saw a flash from the horizon, and it seemed that a huge steel whip really fell from the sky, and hit the head of the giant in golden armor with a roar. The opponent had to retract his arm and make a defensive move.
With this smile, she felt that her whole body had regained consciousness. Then there was another momentary trance, and she returned to the bridge of the Aurora again.
Looking around again, everyone who had fainted just now woke up. Looking at their confused faces, they didn't even realize what happened.
Until this moment, the music was still ringing in Eleanor's mind. On the other side, the cruise ship on which Duke Sadolan was sitting had stopped.
Eleanor felt that it was like a lion walking in the wilderness, but now it stopped and took a defensive posture. It was clearly sensing the presence of another lion, right?
But in this case, who are these mortals who were preparing to threaten each other with main guns just now? Brother Flathead?
Not to mention what kind of mental construction Eleanor will go through. Anyway, another cruise ship appeared from behind everyone's confrontation and slowly sailed towards this side.
