Chapter 1 Flagship Mission

()

Mochou Star Wall is about 5,000 light-years away from the center of human politics. The universe environment here is dangerous, but there is a space lighthouse - Mochou Lighthouse. It is a neutron star that constantly emits strong electromagnetic pulses. It rotates at high speed around the neutron star. It is a magnificent supernova falling ring. After countless years, a planet is formed in the falling ring, rich in energy crystals.

During the 1573 magnetic storm season of the Galaxy Calendar, the continuous war between humans and the Dimitrius tribes for living space finally hit this point. Humans gathered eighteen mothership formations, and under the leadership of the Republic's Grand Marshal Weisheng Xinzhuo, they encountered more than 20 Zerg's Flying Dragon Tower clusters here, and a life-and-death battle broke out.

The fallen ring is filled with thick cosmic dust, stirring wildly, making the aircraft unable to fly in space. This means that the losers have almost no possibility of retreating. The cruelty and tragic war can be seen.

Soon after, the gate of time and space opened and countless huge armored machines were transmitted. The metros made by humans were not as big as their fingers!

This is a war machine owned by the Odonoho tribe who came here for refuge in the alien system. This foreign race with developed technology believes in the great God Odonoho and was later called the gods by humans. They had already agreed with the insects to attack the earthlings, but suddenly appeared, disrupting the humans' formation.

The Human Alliance Command knew nothing about this newly emerging army. There was no information on their individual combat power, combat methods, combat habits, habits and tactics. However, the other party seemed to be familiar with the structure of the human army and designed tactics specifically for the human combat methods. The result is conceivable that the Human Alliance was completely defeated.

At this time, millions of kilometers away from the Mochou Crystal Mine Star, not far from the Earthling Flagship facing disintegration, an engineering shuttle boat was struggling to move forward in the sky with blasting eggs. This was the shuttle boat of the 6th Detachment of the 5th Detachment of the Engineer Corps of the 14th Formation of the Human Alliance. Around it, the blasting eggs spitting by the flying dragon continued to explode, forming one mushroom cloud after another.

There was only one young man on the shuttle boat. He was the captain of the lieutenant colonel of the Sixth Detachment, named Ge Xuan. He led his troops from Mo Chouxing and was ordered to repair a turret of the flagship. Halfway through the journey, he was defeated by the coalition forces. He should have returned to Mo Chouxing immediately, but suddenly received an order from the flagship, requiring all the surviving officers near the flagship to report to the flagship.

At this time, the flagship had suffered a severe blow and could collapse at any time. The officers who received the signal were not fools. They knew that there would be no life here. Most of them pretended not to know about this and directly commanded their ships to turn and retreat. In this airspace, only Ge Xuan obeyed the order. He airdropped all his subordinates to the upper level of the Mochouxing atmosphere, and then drove the shuttle boat in the eyes of the soldiers as if they were fools.

Along the way, Ge Xuan was besieged many times, and he avoided it with his outstanding "escape" skills. In the rising mushroom cloud, the shuttle boat he drove was as flexible as a swimming fish, passing mysterious trajectories in the starry sky.

The flagship was finally in front of him. Ge Xuan set up a shuttle program, letting the shuttle boat automatically head towards the flagship's huge swallowing port, then stood up, turned his eyes to the cosmic dust that was stirring wildly outside the porthole, and sighed softly.

Since I have remembered, Ge Xuan has liked to see the starry sky. He has seen the bright stars in the heart of silver, the mysterious and beautiful nebula, the crisis-ridden star collision zone, the grand and magnificent interstellar turbulence, and of course he has also seen the chaotic supernova fallen ring in front of him.

Although the human fleet was defeated and was chased by the enemy wildly, the small boat Ge Xuan may become a universe dust in the next moment, but for some reason, whenever he sees this boundless universe, his mood will be extremely peaceful and quiet, as if all the pain and troubles have disappeared.

Ge Xuan was born in a family of engineer soldiers in the Republic. Most of his elders have won the title of "Mechanical Doctor" as the engineer soldiers. In this era, there were two types of advanced military doctors in the human army, one was "Life Doctor" and the other was a mechanical doctor.

Gexuan's grandfather died in the war against the Dimitrius tribe for repairing a space cruise ship; his father also died in the war against the Dimitrius tribe for repairing an air turret; his elder brother died in the war against the Dimitrius tribe for repairing an aerospace fighter jet...

After his elder brother died, Ge Xuan was summoned to the army. His mother, who suffered the pain of losing her husband and son, saw that her last relative was about to go to the battlefield to die, could not breathe and died in a grudge on the hospital bed. Before her death, her mother told Ge Xuan: "Remember! No matter what method is used, Xiao Xuan must survive!"

In the next seven years, Ge Xuan meticulously fulfilled his mother's final request.

Whenever the crisis came and other engineers were still stunned, he was the first to turn around and escape. When he was carrying out a life-threatening mission, the first thing he thought of was not how to complete the mission, but how to save his life. As a result, he developed a strong body... and excellent escape skills.

Time is wealth. Although Ge Xuan was a big shot in a mechanic shop when he was a child, when he first entered the sequence of engineering troops, his repair skills were not outstanding. There were more academic figures with better skills and better theory than his.

However, when other masters died heroically one after another, he survived and integrated their skills. Seven years later, none of the engineers who joined the army at that time survived, and the only one he became the uncrowned king among machine doctors.

Of course, Ge Xuan, the uncrowned king, is very controversial because he does not understand the halo skills.

For thousands of years, in order to deal with the most powerful Zerg, humans have continuously optimized their genes and eventually developed universal superpowers to use brain energy to manipulate cosmic energy for attack and defense.

During battle, energy usually overflows in the back of the brain to form an electromagnetic aperture, commonly known as the "energy ring". The types of superpowers are distinguished by the aperture color, and are divided into seven major systems: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, and two external systems, black and white.

In this era, people generally use the strength of the energy ring to distinguish the size of individual combat power.

During war, when humans encounter strong Zergs, they are usually dealt with by halo infantry. Even a newly enlisted soldier has a rank of lieutenant, which can be said to be an officer in the entire army. It can be seen that the government attaches importance to halo infantry. On the battlefield, they can often turn danger into safety and turn the tide in critical moments. Life doctors organized in halo sequences have green life rings and can even bring about resurrection.

Not to mention this. Even if he is a logistics soldier now, he can also have a "halo skills", but the energy ring is much weaker than the halo infantry. Ke Gexuan is born without a halo. When a low-level soldier can also have a halo skills, he, the captain of the engineering detachment, does not. This is actually an alternative, and this is also one of the reasons why he has not been promoted for many years of combat.

Speaking of which, the duty of the engineers is to repair war equipment, which has nothing to do with whether there is a halo skill. However, whether it is out of jealousy or the idea of ​​the strong being respected, Ge Xuan's colleagues just look down on him. Many detachment captains think he is a waste, at most because Ge Xuan is very old and is called "old waste".

When the shuttle boat was stopped and Ge Xuan ran into the flagship bridge through the broken safety passage, he heard his "Siji" again.

"Huh? I didn't expect that the old waste would have the courage to come here too!" A contemptuous voice sounded.

Ge Xuan looked around and found that the bridge was in chaos, with blood flowing all over the ground and corpses everywhere. More than ten people standing were from outside. Looking at the military uniforms and epaulettes, they were all captains of the Engineering Soldier Detachment.

Think about it, it should be like this. Tens of millions of magnetic storm bombs were dropped by both sides of the battlefield, and the communication failed. In this case, 90% of those who could receive the flagship order were engineer soldiers with superb communication technology, and those who dared to come here were the best among the detachment leaders, almost all of whom were machine doctors.

The person who spoke out to laugh at Ge Xuan was a major detachment captain named Gu Biehe. Generally, the captain of the engineering detachment has the rank of major. Ge Xuan is a lieutenant colonel because of his seniority and excellent skills. Among the more than ten detachment captains present, except for Ge Xuan, only Gu Biehe's cousin Gu Buqun was a lieutenant colonel. Of course, the majors were not convinced by Ge Xuan, a lieutenant colonel without halo skills. Gu Biehe relied on his cousin as Ge Xuan, and dared to speak out to laugh at him first.

Ge Xuan ignored him and asked directly: "Where is the Grand Marshal of Microbiology?"

At that time, the flagship's order was issued by the Grand Marshal himself, so Ge ​​Xuan naturally asked the commander directly.

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other. After a while, one of the detachment leaders said, "His Grand Marshal has sacrificed his life, and he is there."

Ge Xuan looked in the direction of his finger and saw an old man wearing the marshal's epaulette lying on the side of the operating table. He had long lost his breath, and a trace of sorrow condensed on his wrinkled face...

Weisheng Xinzhuo is the only marshal of the coalition forces. He cares about the suffering of soldiers and is highly regarded. Although Ge Xuan has never seen him with his own eyes, he respects him very much. He unexpectedly went there like this. Ge Xuan felt sad.

The captain of the detachment continued: "The Grand Marshal ordered all officers to come to the flagship to concentrate because the flagship was hit by multiple energy cannons, the shield was destroyed, and everyone was killed. The Grand Marshal was forced to protect each other because the adjutant of the military doctor tried his best to protect each other with a green life ring, so he stood up until we arrived."

Ge Xuan nodded to him and thanked him, then saluted a standard military salute to Weisheng Xinzhuo's body, took out the military card and swiped it on the operating table, and then asked in a deep voice: "What mission did the Grand Marshal give before his death?"

After swiping the card, Ge Xuan actually took over the task. He just needs to read the content copied by the military card. However, the situation is urgent and the flagship collapses at any time, so it is still easier to ask.

Gu Biehe sneered again and said, "What are you asking so many questions? Can you still complete the task with you, an old waste?"

Ge Xuan continued to ignore him and turned his attention to Gu Buqun.

Although Gu Buqun didn't want to say anything, he always claimed that he was upright in front of his colleagues, did not take credit for his credit, and was selfless in his work, so he forced his smile and explained: "Anyone who completes the tasks assigned by the Grand Marshal can apply the "Special Promotion Law for the Frontline Officer in Wartime" and is specially promoted to Lieutenant General! The Grand Marshal gave instructions to his military merits before his death."

When they heard the word "Lieutenant General", all the captains looked bright. When they heard the news earlier, they were already excited, but they are still very moved.

Gu Biehe licked his lips and said, "Even if we are majors at present, we can still be promoted to lieutenant general!" After he said this, he looked at Ge Xuan hostilely, as if Ge Xuan would come to steal his credit.

The other captains looked at him and Gu Buqun hostilely. In these captains, Ge Xuan was a famous old waste and had no ability to complete the tasks. The only ones who were truly capable of completing the Gu family were the Gu brothers, so the two brothers were the biggest competitors.

Ge Xuan was bored when he saw them. He asked for a long time that these people did not say what the mission was, but they were all credit. Before making a contribution to the promotion, first of all, you have to consider how to save your life in this chaotic battlefield? These people were burned by the rank of lieutenant general, and they all thought about it. No wonder the Grand Marshal Weisheng sacrificed his life, and they had no sadness on their faces. It seemed that they wanted to be promoted and were crazy.

Ge Xuan ignored their comments and inserted the military card into the operating table again. This time he finally understood the content of the task.

Before the Marshal's death, two confidential documents were required to be entrusted to someone to bring them back to the Central Star House. One is a record of the battle method of the Odonoho tribe. These are first-hand data on the battlefield and are recorded by the human coalition after countless casualties and wounded people. It is very valuable. As long as you study it, you will have a clear idea in your heart when facing the Odonoho tribe again.

Another confidential document is a resolution on the deposed decision of the government’s Prime Minister Zai’s father, Liu’s family.

When Ge Xuan saw this document, he was shocked and turned to ask everyone, "How is the battleship supervised by the MPs now?" He had long been informed that because this battle is of great importance, the MPs took the battleship to supervise the battle.

Everyone looked at each other again. After a while, Gu Biehe shrugged and said sarcastically: "Lieutenant Colonel Ge, don't we blame us for calling you 'old waste'. Can't you understand such a simple question? Since you can see this document, of course all the members of the parliament have died in their country."

Another detachment leader added: "The door of time and space opened too suddenly, and our army was quickly defeated. The unlucky members of the parliament wanted to show their courage and fearlessness, especially let the supervising warships sail to the front line of the battlefield, so where could they not have time to retreat? Now they are probably all transformed into elementary particles."

Ge Xuan was silent. He didn't quite understand politics, but he vaguely felt that Prime Minister Zai's father Liu's family wanted to use war to increase their prestige and increase political capital. He ordered an advance rashly, completely ignoring the life and death of the soldiers. These actions made Ge Xuan very disgusted with him. Now that the parliamentarians have died in their country, no one can check and balance the prime minister in politics in the future, this resolution to dismiss the deposed is of great importance.

While Ge Xuan was pondering, the other captains began to discuss how to send back these two confidential materials. After discussing for a long time, they felt that it would be better to act scatteredly. In this way, the possibility of being completely wiped out would be much lower. There would always be someone who could escape from the battlefield and return to Mochou Star. As long as they arrived at Mochou Star, it would be much safer. The human coalition still has a base there.

However, in this way, when the problem arises, how to act disperse?

One of the captains spoke out: "Everyone! Everyone came on a engineering shuttle boat, but the enemy's firepower was too strong and they were siegeing along the way. My shuttle boat was almost destroyed when it arrived at the flagship and could no longer use it to turn back. I think everyone is almost the same, right?"

Seeing everyone nodding, the captain asked: "Everyone, whose shuttle boat is intact? I think... before we leave, we should first make sure that there are still several shuttle boats available."

As soon as this said, everyone looked bitter, and even Lieutenant Colonel Gu Buqun shook his head. Although his repair skills were superior to others, his driving skills were not very outstanding. His shuttle boat was destroyed before he arrived at the flagship. He was wearing space armor and relied on the equipment soldiers to get on the flagship.

Among the people, Gu Biehe had a gloomy face. He stood up and glanced at everyone, and said arrogantly: "Although my shuttle boat is not intact, it should be no big deal to rely on it to return to Mochoxing!"

"Brother Gu is so capable!" The captain exclaimed, then turned his eyes to everyone again, saying, "Is this one the only one good?"

Everyone was silent and looked at Gu Biehe with jealousy. In the silence, a faint voice sounded: "My shuttle boat can also be used."

Everyone looked back and saw that the old waste Ge Xuan was making a sound.

Gu Biehe immediately snorted coldly and cursed a few words. However, he did not express doubt. Everyone present knew Ge Xuan's ability. Except for his lack of halo skills, all other military skills were outstanding. It was a bit unexpected that he could drive the shuttle boat here intact.

Gu Buqun bounced his lieutenant colonel's epaulette and coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention and said, "Since there are two shuttle boats and there are two lieutenant colonels on the scene, I think this matter will be done. We divide it into two groups, each led by a lieutenant colonel, and went to Mochoxing separately. In this way, even if one shuttle boat is destroyed, as long as the other arrives safely, the task can be completed."

Everyone thought for a moment and agreed with the proposal. Although they were not convinced by the lieutenant colonel Ge Xuan, Ge Xuan had a shuttle boat in his hand, and they were still counting on the shuttle boat to return. Why should we object on this issue? If there was a stuttering incident, Ge Xuan ignored it and drove the shuttle boat away by himself. It would be a problem for them to go back. What else would they have to do with the credit?

Since everyone agreed to grouping, the next step was to discuss how to grouping. Gu Buqun proposed the lottery decision, and also obtained everyone's consent.

The lottery was completed quickly, but something unexpected happened, that Gu Biehe drew the group of Ge Xuan. Now only these two people can use the shuttle boats. They are in one group, and what shuttle boats do the other group use?

Everyone was shocked when faced with the result. Gu Biehe shouted: "I declare that I will never give up on my shuttle boat!"

"So, draw a lot again?" said another captain.

When everyone thought about it, it seemed that this was the only way. Just as they were about to put the draw back, Ge Xuan's faint voice sounded again: "Time is tight, so there is no need to draw again. I will give my shuttle boat to Lieutenant Colonel Gu's group."

Gu Buqun was overjoyed when he heard this. If he stayed on his cousin's shuttle boat, his cousin would definitely not listen to the command of him, an outsider. If he successfully completed the task, he would probably not be able to bear the big contribution. His cousin would definitely fight. Now that Ge Xuan takes the initiative to give up the shuttle boat, this problem will not exist. It seems that this old waste is not useless. He is so stupid that he is "cute"!

Regarding Ge Xuan's initiative to give up the boat, the other detachment captains did not care about their interests, and they did not make any statement. Only Gu Biehe glared at Ge Xuan fiercely and said, "This time I'm going to give you a discount! More than 80% of my shuttle boat's functions are not damaged. I guess it's much better than yours. If you have a chance to save your life when you get on my boat, you have a lot more hope of saving your life!"

"Okay, okay, brothers don't say it anymore! Lieutenant Colonel Ge is selfless, this is everyone's role model! We just want to complete the task. As a qualified soldier, we have long put our lives aside. What are we talking about saving our lives?" Gu Buqun said with a righteous face, "Now we will continue to draw lots and decide which group to carry the confidential information!"

The battlefield information of the Odonoho tribe is easy to deal with. This can be copied and one by one is formed, but that parliamentary resolution is difficult to deal with. This is something that cannot be copied, and only lottery draws.

Gu Buqun really wanted to gain the right to keep it, but this time, the God of Luck seemed to have patronized the waste Ge Xuan, and the resolution was eventually drawn by him.

Gu Buqun cursed in his heart. This time he wanted to turn against each other. Not to mention that the draw of lots was proposed by him. Now his cousin Gu Biehe is in Ge Xuan's group, so he must insist on letting Ge Xuan take the resolution. After completing the task, he will hold the resolution group. The credit may be greater. My cousin never gave it up. Alas, does the goddess of luck like stupid eggs especially? He is so smart, but he is not lucky enough to be a child. He is still a lieutenant colonel. He is actually on par with this stupid egg. It's really unreasonable!

Everyone discussed for a while, and then Ge Xuan and Gu Buqun led two groups of people to the Tunna cabin.

Along the way, Gu Biehe was still nagging and boasting about his shuttle boat, saying that Ge Xuan would get a bargain. However, when he arrived at the Tunna cabin, Gu Biehe was stunned because he found a brand new shuttle boat near the huge Tunna mouth.

"Huh? It turns out there is a spare shuttle boat on the flagship!" he shouted in surprise.

"Well, judging from the quality, I have probably not used it yet, and there is no trace of shelling on the boat. Why didn't I find it just now?" Another captain said in surprise.

"Ltd. Colonel Ge, where is your shuttle boat?" Gu Buqun asked. He was worried that Ge Xuan's boat would be terrible, so he asked casually, but his mind was all on the brand new shuttle boat. If Ge Xuan's boat didn't look good, he made up his mind to ask for the new boat.

Ge Xuan looked at him calmly and said, "It's right there."

"where?"

"Isn't that just?"

"What? You...you said this new boat is...your?"

Ge Xuan nodded expressionlessly.

After receiving a positive answer, Gu Buqun was overjoyed and praised repeatedly: "Lieutenant Colonel Ge is worthy of being the uncrowned king among our machine doctors! He drove a shuttle boat to leap the battlefield without any damage. This is a miracle!"

The other captains of Gu Buqun's group also praised him repeatedly. Anyway, praising people does not cost money. Ge Xuan doesn't need any good things himself. What's the point of praising him? No matter how much praise he is, it won't change the essence of his waste.

Gu Biehe first secretly hated Ge Xuan for stealing his limelight, but then he burst into laughter. What should he compare with the waste? Nowadays, who else would look down on people who don’t even have a halo skills? In the past, the leader of the engineers didn’t even look at him directly. If he hadn’t been qualified and had accumulated a lot of merits over the years, he might not have even been a lieutenant colonel. Such a person would not be worthy of his jealousy!
