Chapter 99： Back to base

The star map owned by Bandner and their little broken ship is an old version of fifteen years ago. There are many new discoveries, newly explored channels and planets that have not been marked. Relying on such a star map with a lame leg and a broken arm, Ryan is abruptly After drawing out the line, constantly calibrating and revising the route during the voyage, I finally arrived near the Omega military base after 30 days. After another five hours of sailing, I can reach the military base and sleep well in the comfortable and fluffy bed. I felt it.

"Finally, it's almost here." Derrick swung a chair and straddled it, put his arms on the back of the chair, and sighed with his head supported, "If it doesn't, my injury will be healed."

"Stay in the aerobic cabin for two hours after you go back, and the sequelae of your jump will completely disappear." Harriet crouched behind Derrick, playing flying chess with Fan Luanting, the interstellar version of flight Chess is holographic, and you can see the real small plane flying, but the test of luck remains the same. Her luck is not very good. After six rounds of Fan Luanting's small plane, she flew out for a while. shelf.

Frequent jumps without preparation have a great impact on the body. Those who are not superhuman have suffered more or less injuries. Some injuries can be seen on the surface, and some injuries are internal, such as minor bleeding of internal organs, digestive function. Temporary disturbances, etc. After the sailing was stable, everyone checked their bodies. Those who showed obvious symptoms were not counted. Even Ryan had a slight stomach bleeding. He took a few pills as a short-term cure, and went back to the base. hospital for further examination.

The target was in sight, and he no longer needed Ryan to calibrate the route for navigation. After speaking to Jack who was driving the starship, he stood up, left the cockpit, and went to the rear kitchen to pour himself a glass of orange juice full of sunshine. , as soon as you taste it, you will know that it is the sunny orange produced by your own farm. Needless to say, the taste is quite good. Since he got the compensation (Uncle Porter injected the compensation he received into the farm and became a minority shareholder of the farm), Dad has expanded the business scope. One of the top products is Sunshine Orange, which is distributed to the storm. All large planets and some medium-sized planets in the sector.

When the starship entered a medium-sized planet for material replenishment, Ryan saw the sunshine orange as an expensive fruit, so he bought two, opened it and made juice, supplemented with vitamin C and other nutrients, and his taste buds were satisfied. .

There were footsteps behind him, Ryan didn't turn around, still looking at the scenery that was flying backwards outside the window, "Still panic?"

"No way!" Bandner was stubborn, poured himself a glass of juice, added more than half of the glass of ice, raised his head and drank a whole glass before hesitatingly walked to Ryan's side, "The cooperation can be successful. ?"

"As long as there is a will, why can't cooperation be achieved?" Ryan said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if it doesn't work, you won't be executed as pirates."

Bandner: "..." He's afraid of this! ! !

The closer the Omega military base was, the more afraid he became. He thought in his heart that he believed in the soldiers and the army. As long as he stepped on the military base, he could complete the task that Emperor Qin Feng gave his ancestors! But another voice told him that it would not be so simple. They are pirates after all. Maybe they were split up and sent to the torture room before they saw the military leader, and they were tortured in this and that way...

Ryan turned his head and blinked at Bandner, lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "I tell you, I have something to do with the top military."

Bandner asked nervously, "What's the matter?"

"Husband and wife relationship." Ryan didn't sell anything and said directly, "I'll cover you."

Bandner: "..."

Bandner: "!!!"

"You can't joke like this!" Bandner lowered his head in frustration. "Well, if you torture me and ask me about the Starscream Pirates, I'll say it all without reservation."

"Haha, I'm not kidding." Ryan looked at Bandner and could vaguely see the shadow of the subordinate hundreds of years ago. He met the descendants of the subordinate in this way, and learned that the undercover mission was still going on. Not shocked is definitely fake. After the shock, Ryan felt proud in his heart, and his eyes changed when he saw Bandner. He was willing to help Bandner to complete the tasks handed down from generation to generation, and also to complete the work for Qin Feng Anderson.

Bandner was dazed and asked hesitantly, "You really didn't lie to me?"

"Is it any good for me to deceive you?"

Bandner thought about it for a while, and he really didn't have anything. He has nothing to do except himself. No, deceiving him can get the specific coordinates of the Starscream pirate stronghold... But this is the premise of cooperation. of. Bandner was already confused, so he simply put it aside and started gossiping, "Which high-level executive are you with? It won't be Admiral Tolkien, right?"

Ryan: "...how did you think of this?"

"Oh, because the Omega military base belongs to the Legion of Glory." Bandner sighed and looked down at his toes, just like the cowardly violinist on the Shakespeare, releasing the restless side of his heart, He acted in his true colors, "I don't have a personal terminal, so I can't go to the Star Network, otherwise I search your name, and I can go directly to which admiral you are with. How could I forget, it was on the Shakespeare. The one you traveled with, so young, Admiral Dalton!"

Lane smiled and nodded.

Bandner wailed, "That's my idol, she's married!!!"

Idols don't even recognize them when they appear in front of them, this fake fan.

"It's been a long time since we announced the news to the public." Ryan patted Bandner on the shoulder reassuringly. Without a personal terminal, he couldn't access the Star Network, and the news would indeed lag, "We'll be able to see Auston on Planet Omega, soon. almost there."

Bandner nodded, the excitement of seeing the idol spread over his heart, completely overwhelmed the tension and fear, anyway, they have already boarded the starship, it is impossible to escape, five regular soldiers can take three of them. The groups are squeezed together into a ball and kicked around. Knowing that his idol, General Allston, was at the base, Bandner felt that the speed of the starship was too slow. "How long will it take?"

"Four and a half hours, almost."

"so slow."

Ryan couldn't help laughing when he heard Bandner's voice, and then asked: "If you don't send the purchased things back in time, does it matter who you are waiting for?"

Bandner sighed, "Each purchase is not very smooth, the short is four or five months, and the long is more than seven or eight months. They will not wait. You can also see that our starship is behind. , you spend a lot of time on the road. Because you are a black household, you can't enter the regular planet to buy things, you can only go to the places where pirates often go. As soldiers, you should not be very unfamiliar with these gathering places, and the cranberry planet Almost, in a place where human nature is indulged, frank transactions require a strong middleman, and if you hire such a middleman, you will pay a lot of money. We don’t have much money, we can’t just go to a gathering point to buy things, we often go to three or four Only one person can buy the necessary materials, and there is also the fear of pirates."

This kind of life is very difficult, but in order to survive, you must persevere.

The planet they live in has a harsh environment, it is difficult for plants to grow, there are many beasts raging, and they are attacked by scattered Zerg every few years.

"The place we live in is called the Desolate Star, a primitive, backward, and hopeless planet." Bandner's tone became obviously heavy when he mentioned the place where he lived, "There are 13,000 people on the planet. There are many people, there are only more than 3,000 people who prefer me here. They live together on a mountain. Don't look at the logistics we are called Starscream. I am still a logistics officer, but I have no real power. I am often bullied and oppressed. They may be caught and become slaves. There are not enough weapons, it is necessary to guard against both beasts and people, life is too difficult."

Ryan pursed his lips and sighed while looking at the boundless universe outside the window. It was such a harsh environment. There was a family who insisted on a mission for hundreds of years. "Everything will be fine."

"Well, Emperor Qin Feng's will is to support us in resisting the darkness. He said to my ancestors, 'Everything will be fine', and I think the tone must be similar to yours." Bandner pondered for a moment. , thinking about Ryan's tone carefully, he said in surprise: "Really, I feel that your tone is similar to the tone of the emperor I imagined. It is either solemn and righteous, or gentle and encouraging."

Lane turned to Bandner and said, "Qin Feng said to your ancestors that it is me now, remember how you feel now, and tell your children later."

Bandner rolled his eyes, "Don't take yourself too seriously, and be sure to add a title when you say the name of the emperor."

Lane smiled and said nothing.

Bandner: "Hey, hey, did you know that the Great Emperor is a very sacred existence with us."

"Okay, I see." Ryan's voice was a little distracted. Whoever talks about his honorary title all day long, it's too embarrassing.

Time passed unknowingly, Bandner looked at the gradually approaching planet, and became more curious in nervousness. It was the first time he came to such a formal military base, and he didn't know what it was like inside.

The docking port of the Omega military base, receiving the news that Ryan and the others were coming back, Auston waited there early, looking at the sky calmly, there was nothing in his expression, but there was an eagerness in his black eyes His inner state has been exposed. Three groups of people were sent out, and the other two groups came back one after another half a month ago. They didn't bring back any useful information about Starscream's stronghold. Now all eyes are on the third group of people, hoping to bring back the details of the stronghold. Coordinates so that the joint operation does not fail. When others were concerned about the completion of the task, Auston was more concerned about Ryan's safety. Although Ryan repeatedly said that he was fine, when he could not see the real person, Auston had doubts in his heart.

All kinds of chaotic thoughts flashed in his mind, Auston's expression did not change at all, he looked up at the sky and saw an old starship he had seen before landing, his tightly pursed lips were slightly loose He opened, the corners of his mouth rose, and finally a smile appeared.

"I don't know what Ryan and the others brought back."

"They didn't report to work," Allston said.

After receiving the news, Tolkien, who approached slowly, said: "After all, the content of the report is invisible and intangible. Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you rest assured."
