Chapter 71

）…… Take a look at the latest chapter the fastest update Shu + Ke + jucom era VI takes off and leaves the apron. Opal stands in front of the console to set the route and looks at the starry sky outside the window. From this angle, you can just see the fiery ares star, which is like a huge fireball, emitting endless light and heat &

the Ares star has reached the end of its life, and it has existed for nearly 17 billion years, and will consume all its light and heat in 200 million years. Due to its own mass, it will collapse at the end of its life and form a black hole that will pull all the planets in the galaxy, and this area will disappear completely in the universe. Even light can no longer detect its presence.

In the year 20073, the great astronautics Association issued the life span measurement of Ares stars. If the life span of the adult class is converted, the rest of its life is just over a year.

But the life span of stars is really too long. Since the birth of mankind, the 14000 year civilization of the ancient earth period and the civilization of the light age are only 30000 years, 200 million years Scientists don't even believe that human history can last so long.

"This is an escort mission." "You can read the diary first," opal said as he set the route

Carrens opened the mercenary's diary and sat down on the sofa. Opal moved his pillow away, which Raymond had used before. Without saying a word, he picked up their joint Memorial and put it into the room.

However, after entering the bedroom and facing the other bed, I thought that since Karen had come and joined the mercenary Corps temporarily, although it was only a probation period, if they performed well, they were also long-term partners, and they could not collect all Ramon's relics.

He took it out again and put it back in place.

Karen looked up at him, did not speak, and continued to read his diary.

"Territory of the Galactic Republic." "Mission C," carrens said

Opal sat down on the carpet and looked at the details of the mission. Before he took over the task, he had already planned a little bit - the escort mission, which was not very difficult.

Task level: C.

Mission content: escort of the planets ct-u2, ct-u3 and ct-u7 in the Large Magellanic Cloud sol stellar system to assist the Youth Enterprise Association in handling the relocation matters. The relocation site has not been determined, and all members (about 22000 people) must be settled before the commission can be terminated.

Meeting place: ct-u7.

Client: John Cox, Secretary General of Youth Enterprise Association.

Mission reward: 180000 star credit points, food and accommodation.

Note: there may be a small number of battles on the destination planet. Young enterprise will provide small imperial combat mecha.

"A move." "It may be necessary to fight, not to say what kind of fight it will be, nor what kind of enemy it will encounter," karrens said

"It's the same with the entrustment," opal said. "Employers always like to be vague and try to confuse some concepts in order to save money. I guess the destination planet is a newly reclaimed wasteland. There may be some wild animals there."

Karen nodded. "It's possible that I've never made this kind of commission. Is this the habit of employers?"

Opal: Well, nearly 70% of the entrustment has the nature of concealment, and you will be familiar with it gradually

Karen looked at the task carefully and said, "if there is concealment, what do you think it will be?"

Opal said: "in my experience, it should be in the fight."

Karen nodded and said, "if only there were more complete information

Opal: you used to be a soldier of the Republic. Have you ever been to the sol system

Karrens said with a smile: "never, we are all closed training, we are not allowed to go out to play. And I'm not an explorer. I'm part of the ground guard. I have no experience in Galaxy exploration

Opal got up to open the map and said, "that's boring enough."

Karen said, "so I want to be an adventurer and a mercenary."

Opal input the location of Sol's star and check the notes.

He recalled everything about the star map again - is this really a star map used by Colin?

Opal was calm in his heart. If it was what he expected, what would that be?

His grief for Raymond's departure has been gradually replaced by the obsession of revenge. The spanner said, "we will revenge one day". All the mercenaries know that this blood feud can never be resolved. Many people's only meaning of living after the second assassination is revenge.

Raymond is just one of many people killed by Colin. Hundreds of millions of lives died under him. The king of meteorite does not even know the identity and name of the dead, including Suiyan, including the commander of silver or the commander, including the mercenaries who died in his two operations. Each of them has his own name, but in the eyes of Colin, he is the only one Just a few small stones on the road of Daye.

Even small stones are not, at best, the dust of the universe.

Opal is looking forward to one day to avenge Raymond and Azeroth himself. At the moment when the sword pierces the chest of cololin, he tells him in a low voice that there is a semi robot that is not even a human being. In order to prevent him from destroying their living home, he gave his life.Before that, however, there is still a long way to go.

He opens the note.

The panorama on the map is an orange star with a square chart next to it. Opal takes a look at the lower left corner and says, "what's the meaning of the heliograph?"

Karen got up and went to the chart, her eyes full of wonder.

"Spectrographic analysis of herzbolone Russell." "Sol is a blue giant used to represent the temperature and light of a star, which means it's very young, and the blue giant is one of the leading stars of high quality," karrens explained

Opal said, "but it's not blue."

Karen said, "well I'm not sure why. Maybe GSA has its own standards. "

Around the star, there are bright bands of meteorites, just like a ring around the star. The ring is empty, which is a very rare phenomenon.

There are thousands of planets around the halo, which orbit around the star of sol.

"There are almost all nitrogen fixing plants on these planets." "And nitrogen fixing bacteria There may be nitric acid rain and ammonia rain. I've heard that the sol system is a good place to produce nitrogen

Opal nodded slowly, and Karen said again, "good map. How much did you buy it for?"

Opal: "from my friend, I have another one from the pirates I'd rather use this one. "

He took away the star map sent to him by ractor and inserted the star map from the pirate ship in the silent star. This star map was produced by big aerospace company, only coordinates and images, without any explanation.

"Forget it. Use this one." Opal replaced the star chart that lector had given him and went to the coffee table and sat down.

Karen laughed and said nothing.

It takes three cosmic days to get from the strong star to the sol galaxy. Opal is silent all the time, sitting in front of the console and staring out the window at the stars.

Opal remained silent all day, and the next day he sat still, silent.

"Talk to me, comrade in arms. What can you teach me? I think you're very strong. I believe I'm with the right person. "

Opal said: "no, I'm still a fool. Don't put too much hope on me. In fact, I'm too weak to protect my closest people."

Karen laughed and said, "your little robot is pretty good."

"My mom gave it to me. It's smart, E7," opal said

E7 was flashing and beeping, and Karen said, "can I see you? e7？”

E7 took a picture of Karen, who said, "my home is in the silver gray system of the Republic."

"That sounds good." "Who else in the family?" opal said? Why don't you stay in the Republic after you retire? As far as I know, the Republic treats veterans well. "

"Well, that's only for individuals and spouses I have a father, a mother In fact, they are not my blood relatives. Do you know about the battle of kengera

Opal shook his head, and karrens said, "kenzilla is a small planet."

"What happened there?" opal said

"I had a boy who was about your age when I served in the ground forces of the ground silver gray system. He was a very beautiful young man," karrence said

"I bet he died later," opal said

Karen nodded with a smile and said, "it's true. He is one of my favorite students, very smart It's the right kind of intelligence, not the arrogant, arrogant intelligence. He dares to resist the powerful forces in the army, but he has a way to get out of it every time. He has taught me a lot of things, and I admire him from the bottom of my heart. "

"In fact, the same is true of liexing's thought. The mercenaries believe that they are born equal. No one discriminates against the weak, and no one claims to be an elder and oppresses new people with hierarchy," opal said

"Yes, he behaves in the same way as the mercenaries, sticking to what he thinks is right and is very brave," said Karen. I think it's a waste of talent to keep him on the ground, so I applied to send him to the exploration team. "

Opal could almost guess what had happened. Indeed, carrens said, "he died on a mission, but saved the whole team. I'm proud of him."

"For a lot of people, they might think, 'if I don't send him to the discovery team, he won't die'..." About this. "

"But I don't think that everyone has his own pursuit in life. He wants to explore the universe rather than stay in the ground forces for a lifetime in order to live longer and safer," karrence said. You know, the value of life is not the quantity of time, but the quality, so I never blame myself for his sacrifice

You once said this to my teacher

Opal thought about the life of ephemeropters that the absolute length of time did not make much sense. The key was whether a person lived for himself or did what he wanted to do."He burned his life." Karrens said with a smile: "the compression of his soul and the blooming of bright light, more meaningful than many life in this universe, his one minute is equal to many people's life."

Opal nodded slowly, and Karen said, "but his family can't understand that a considerable part of the Republic still respects the idea of the continuation of the ancient earth They think that people are social people, parents have the responsibility of parents, children have the responsibility of children, everyone does not live for themselves, from the moment of birth, they need to face their own responsibility, for their relatives, for friends, for the country to dedicate their lives

Opal said, "I can't say, right."

"Well..." "In the final analysis, it's a balance between giving and getting, or a balance between the rights and obligations of life's autonomy," carrens said

"In order to satisfy their parents, their parents, and even their parents, feel that they need to be proud of their parents and parents in order to satisfy their parents' needs."

"In many of the Republic's star regions, this idea is still in the mainstream, and the interstellar community is split because of this ideological difference."

"So when I retired, I began to take care of his family, hoping that they would understand that his life was very valuable. His brother also served in the army and had no time to take care of his family. His father broke up with his brother. His brother was deeply ashamed of having such a father because he drank too much. His father needs a lot of money, so I have to go out and become a mercenary again, and I'll walk around and learn more

Opal asked, "I don't know who my father is. My mother is dead. I think if I want to be a mercenary, she should support me, but I can understand what you say. Are you and he lovers?"

"There was a time when he was, but his brother was ostracized, or, to say, hated me," carrens said

Opal asked again, "where are your own parents?"

"I haven't been in touch since I was born. The Republic needs newborns, so my parents who I never met donated sperm and eggs and paired them in the inventory. I was born in the incubator and raised by the government. I joined tifeng Military Academy at the age of seven and retired as a major," karrence said

Opal looked at Karen. He was almost as tall as himself. His eyes were deep. He was thin and capable. He was as explosive as a cheetah.

He is not handsome, but he has a different demeanor, self-discipline, resolute, resolute and full of perseverance - that is a kind of military unique, loyal and decisive character. What's more, he is not humble and arrogant. He regards opal as a commander and a partner. He does not feel arrogant because of his former major rank, nor does he cater to opal because of his C-level status as a mercenary.

Opal said, "I think you are very good, very sensible, very honored to fight with you, comrade in arms."

Karen said with a smile, "tell me about you."

Opal recalled for a moment and said, "my hometown is a mineral planet, but I'm sorry, there are some things I can't say too clearly..."

He picked up some of his experiences and told him briefly. After hearing this, he said, "it's very interesting. I began to yearn for the life of a mercenary."

"I did the same at the beginning." Opal said: "full of longing, full of longing, until the day my comrade in arms died. In fact, before I met you, I originally planned to work alone. I have always wondered why many people in liexing would like to release orders, advance and retreat with comrades in arms, and complete the entrustment together. Isn't it a very happy thing? "

Opal: "after Raymond left me, I realized the feelings of many people. They didn't like to cooperate with others, but they couldn't afford to lose or lose. Just think about it. If your partner dies one day, it's like cutting your soul apart and never coming back. "

"You'll come out, believe me," said Karen

Opal looked at him and said, "but what if we encounter the same situation again? For example, if I fight with you in blood, you will die one day in the future

Karen laughed and opal said, "so I'm on my own again, and I have to endure this pain again."

"I'm not equal to the friend you used to be," carrens said

Opal said, "it's not equivalent, because he is my lover, and you are your comrades in arms, but it's not easy to lose a friend..."

Karrence said, "thank you for accepting me. I believe you seriously accept me as your fighting partner. Do you listen to the song of legeson?"

Opal said, "listen now and then, why?"

"He sang a song to the effect that life itself is a cycle of gain, loss, experience, and forgetfulness," carrens said

Opal's pupils reflected the magnificent starry sky outside the porthole.

Karrens added: "all things will leave you one day, only your heart is real. Those who have family will lose family, those who have love will lose love. What you have will face the day when you lose it. Loss and gain always go hand in hand. Man has nothing but himself Everything else is scenery. "Opal nodded and Karen said, "you'll come out slowly, and you have more important things to do."

"What's the matter?" Opal road.

Karrens: I don't know what you can do. You have to decide for yourself, burn your life. Whether you can do it or not, live on. When life comes to the end of nature, you will meet your lover one day

They didn't talk any more that day. Opal fell into a long thought. Finally, he found what he wanted to do. One day, he would get rid of Colin.

Whether it is done by himself or by himself to solve the impact of the meteorite legion, he bears the responsibility.
