Chapter 612 Bad News

I have a good impression of the female leader of the privateering group named Bonnie.

Don't think wrongly, although the other party is more or less a beauty with alien amorous feelings, the non-human girl I have is already in the army. What I really appreciate about the other party is her spirit and aura.

A young woman, leading a privateering group of thousands of men and protecting tens of thousands of "common people", lived a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife in such a dangerous and war-torn universe. To survive is an achievement in itself. It's a miracle, and she can still make so many of her subordinates willingly follow her to live this kind of life. Although the economy is a bit tight, you can't accept their joyful spirit. Yes, the privateers are all rough people. They kind of like to take advantage of others and are used to doing some sneaky things, but within them, a certain touching atmosphere really exists, and all of this should be attributed to Bonnie's leadership and personality strength. .

As Lilina said, most privateers are more cunning than pirates and greedier than bandits in order to survive, but the privateers under Bonnie's leadership seem to me more like a big family of refugees. In order to survive, they do "business" that sanctimonious people look down upon but never really hurt anyone. This is the biggest impression I have after spending half a day with them.

No matter what others think, I think she is a woman worthy of admiration.

This universe is full of admirable figures, even figures who make iron-blooded imperial generals like Pandora Viska pay tribute, old man Roland Gale, and the older generation leaders of other forces he mentioned, those who almost Leaders who sacrificed everything to keep their country alive, they are all moving heroes, and they are all big people who should be famous throughout the ages. But in contrast, small people also have the persistence and tenacity of small people, such as Bonnie and her privateers. group.

They are insignificant in the eyes of many people. They are all small characters who are fighting in the struggle for hegemony between countries and relying on the residues on the battlefield. Living freely is their entire wealth. However, these little people are killed by a person who is also a small person. Led by women, united together, no matter how turbulent the outside world is, they must support a peaceful home for their brothers and sisters - even if it is just a shabby space station, this is the bravery of little people, without any spectacular achievements. , their only achievement is to reach their limit and live happily.

In this universe, it is not easy to do this.

Moreover, the other party has also helped us a lot. Although there is the threat factor of Lilina in advance, Bonnie is indeed the hero who helped us contact the Temple Legion and has directly contributed to the major operations of the Imperial Army. This If placed within Xiling Apostle, it is possible to obtain a medal.

Therefore, in order to show respect and sincerity, I sent an Eternal-class mothership and a small escort fleet to jump to Bonnie's "Ark" space station as a guard of honor for the meeting. According to the empire's practice, this is The smallest number of envoys that should be dispatched when conducting official exchanges with the leader of another force, treating a group of privateers as a regular force is unprecedented, and all this is purely to give Bonnie face, after all It is an invitation from a terrifying behemoth like the Emperor. There is almost no room for objections from the other party. We are already suspected of being the one to overwhelm them. It would be dangerous if we send a mere small boat to force them over to carry out that kind of operation. As for the mission, it's a bit insulting.

But now it seems that the seemingly huge imperial fleet scares people...

Among the people we solemnly invited were Bonnie and a dozen of her close subordinates. Most of these guys had never seen more than fifty warships gathered together to fight in their lives. When they discovered that dozens of powerful warships appeared outside the space station in an instant, I was dumbfounded when they attacked the battleships - when Lilina's Temple Legion was operating near the "Ark" space station a few months ago, they sent less than ten battleships, which wiped out the entire planet, but now the same size of large battleships A total of more than 80 spaceships and a giant mothership with illegal specifications stopped under their noses. As a result, a group of privateers even pushed out escape boats, and when they heard that this was the Imperial *** When the high command wanted to invite the leader of the privateering group to discuss the military plan, Bonnie, one vote, two bosses, three bosses, and four bosses... were pulled back by our special correspondent in a state of dizziness.

Then, the cadres of the privateer group who finally woke up after the space teleportation turned around and saw an even more spectacular scene: the most powerful interstellar fleet in the universe was displayed in space, with a dense array of giant ships stretching for tens of millions of kilometers. The giant spaceship, which is huge and powerful and exceeds the most powerful flagship that any civilization can design, fills the field of vision like a private soldier. The majestic and majestic flagship of the interstellar alliance is like a pantheon, guarded by a cluster of battleships in the center of the array.

They were shocked - was this going to destroy the world?

Strictly speaking, this fleet has this ability.

The Imperial Admiral is larger than most people imagine. Excluding special units like Planet Fortress, the Imperial Admiral can be regarded as the most majestic type of "conventional battleship". Even Bonnie's "Ark" space station can be packed away Stuffed into the docking bay of the Imperial Admiral's warship, when the shuttle approached the boarding port of the Cross Starship, the scene was as if it was rushing towards a towering mountain.

The inner passage of the Imperial Admiral is a truly magnificent world. When Bonnie flew through the "sky" of the passage in the shuttle, she saw many things that are theoretically impossible to appear in a warship: scientific research bases, weapons Factories, residential buildings, central gardens, open-air sports fields, a shopping street, Spring Flower Kindergarten, the big sign of the taxi company, and two urban management law enforcement sentries. If the battleship alloy walls were not visible far away, who would I would never have imagined that this was inside a spaceship.

"This place... is so big..."

Sitting on her seat, Bonnie almost leaned against the porthole with a look of astonishment on her face.

"It's just a conventional battleship. Our planet fortress has not been transported to this universe." Sitting next to her, I said casually while teasing Ding Dong crawling on my thigh, and asked the head of the empire to come to the dock in person. District greets me, how big of a face do you think this is, but from the moment I boarded the ship to now, my attention has basically been focused outside the window, and I don’t give the head of state any face at all!

But you can’t blame others. For an imperial head of state who took a taxi and checked the odometer when he got out of the car, you won’t be nervous even if there is a reinforced battalion’s honor guard standing behind him...

"The planet... is so amazing..."

The shuttle stopped steadily in the "bridge area" a few minutes later. Due to the special design of the Imperial Admiral, its so-called bridge is just a conventional term. Strictly speaking, it is a place located in the center of the battleship. The large-scale comprehensive headquarters is separated from the outer armor of the battleship by thirty layers, making it extremely safe. In the era of space war, no one would be stupid enough to leave the bridge of a ship above the mothership level exposed.

The privateering cadres who came with Bonnie were just accompanying and had nothing to do with our mission, so they were directly arranged to the guest rest area. I believe the comfortable environment there would satisfy them, while Bonnie and I came directly to the ship. At the core of the bridge, in the command hall.

As soon as she entered this double-story hall, which can be called the core of the Imperial Palace, Bonnie was immediately speechless: There is something called atmosphere in the world. This inexplicable thing can make even the dullest guy suddenly excited - Qian Except for Qian and Sylvia - the solemnity and orderliness in the command hall are created by thousands of imperial officers and strategic consoles full of pits. In this place, even if there are bound to be "gags" around me The force field" and the "loss of moral integrity halo" will also be compressed to a critical point. Without these two reassuring artifacts, the leader sister will immediately feel huge pressure.

A heavy weight called "Empire Headquarters" pressed on every inch of her scalp, making the leader of the privateer group, who was used to being careless, curl his lips.

"Relax, Xiling Apostle actually doesn't care too much about the other party's etiquette when communicating with foreigners - just spare your buttons."

Bonnie is not wearing the faded leather jacket she wore the last time we met. She is wearing a brand new commander's uniform - this style of clothing is popular among pirates and privateer leaders in the East Sky District. It is very popular. It does not represent any legion, nor does it have any so-called military rank mark. It is just used by those people as a decoration to show their identity and strength because of its just right majesty and temperament. According to our last contact, Bonnie should usually be a A very informal person, a "power leader" who wears a leather jacket like an ordinary battleship maintainer and loudly lectures her own designer in the room. Today she is wearing such clothes, which is enough to show her respect for this invitation. Attention, but how to say...

It’s really inappropriate. This sister, who has a bit of exotic style and wild beauty, suddenly changed into a serious and polite military uniform, and maybe even had an ion perm or something specially done. It was really inconsistent with her temperament, and I looked awkward. , she kept arranging her clothes along the way, and she was probably feeling awkward enough.

At this time, Sivis was reporting on the battle situation on the officer's platform, pointing out the country in front of the huge holographic star map. Dressed in the uniform of a majestic imperial commander, coupled with his confident and capable temperament, he was considered a real soldier. , taking a peek, Bonnie next to her could hardly hide the envy on her face after seeing Sivis - Why do you think a woman would be envious of this?

"Hey, boss, you are here!"

Lilina was the first to see a guard saluting here, and immediately jumped up happily. Sivis's tactical report made her drowsy. Seeing me now is like seeing a savior.

I led Bonnie to the officer's platform: "Sivis, please stop for a moment. This is Bonnie, the direct executor of the next move."

Adjutant Yu Jie immediately saluted to this side, and every word she spoke was as powerful as an iron bean: "Yes, Your Majesty - Captain Bonnie, I am very happy that you can agree to participate in the empire's next military operation. This It is the highest honor, I am the elite high-ranking commander of the Xiling Empire, Sivis, it is a pleasure to meet you."

"Ah, hello," Bonnie startled the other party, and awkwardly responded with a military salute from an unknown world, and then looked at me in shock, "Did she call you Your Majesty?"

"Nonsense." I was even more surprised than she was. "Didn't I tell you? From the moment we met to the time we came here, I told you, right?"

"I thought you were joking. I thought you were the one responsible for picking up people, and you were a middle-level leader..."

Bonnie said what was on her mind smoothly. Before she could finish her words, there was a sound of metal clashing all around, and a platoon of royal guards loaded their guns.

"Put it down, let it go, she is my friend," I quickly waved to the people around me, asking these guards who almost regarded "the honor of the commander is equal to life" as a natural truth. They were the only guards who were not contaminated by the unscrupulous high-ups of the empire. Then they looked serious. He looked at the group leader's sister, whose face turned pale, and said, "Don't talk nonsense. From a political point of view, what you just did is considered a crime."

I said this, but I was bleeding and crying in my heart. It’s unreasonable. What’s wrong with the passerby’s face? Who is the extra angry? I, Mr. Chen, have been like this Mr. X of the masses in K city since the day I got my ID card. Even after graduating from high school, my teacher didn’t even remember my name. Is this wrong?

I also want Shandora’s radiant leadership, my sister’s gentle aura that makes people unforgettable when they meet her, and Qianqian’s personality and thinking that can be remembered for a lifetime just by saying a few words to you. It’s a pity. So far, we are recognized as the least influential member of the empire's leadership. If nothing else, even that old bastard Cicaro has won the No. 1 spot in the piracy industry's hall of fame. He has a weird look. He carries a bag that everyone laughs at, and in five minutes when he goes out on the pedestrian street, he can make half the city's urban management take notice. Compared with that guy, I can say hello to a high school classmate, and people can think twice about it. Those who can't remember the name in minutes are simply too weak.

"It feels like you are smiling but your whole body is haggard. Is that okay?"

Bonnie calmed down, but found that my expression was wrong, and immediately asked with concern - he is indeed the leader of a privateering group who leads a group of scavengers to sell scraps on the battlefield, and his nervous system is quite adequate. Tough.

But no matter what, Bonnie seems to have begun to adapt to this weird atmosphere: a group of soldiers who are so serious that it makes people cringe, and a group of leaders who are so incompetent that it makes people feel uncomfortable. They are rumored to be the same as the terrifying devil in the outside world. No one would have thought that the Emperor of the Empire had such a personality. If this was sold as core information...

Make sure you have enough money to spend your life - Bonnie looked around at the imperial soldiers who were armed to the point of their eyes and came to a conclusion.

"Okay, let's get down to business now, about your mission..."

My sister finally remembered serious matters. As soon as she opened her mouth, Bonnie's whole body tensed up and her expression became solemn.

She's not stupid. It's a very simple truth. The greater the reward, the greater the risk. Working for a powerful being like the Emperor, the risk is enough to make a careless secondary hero feel cold from head to toe. If you get used to it, Bonnie, who is trying to survive in the cracks and grab jobs in the dangerous situation, is very sensitive to this kind of danger. The moment she saw that the emperor with such a fleet was coming to ask for her help, she remembered one thing: there are some businesses , if you mess up, you will lose your head.

But this is a task that cannot be refused for the same reasons.

"Based on your intelligence network, one thing must be very clear. We are dealing with angel pirates."

The other party nodded to show understanding.

“But they have the ability to summon rebels, that is, enemies of the empire, which has always made our military operations progress slowly. Now, we have finally disintegrated the borders of those pirates, and there is only one military target currently placed in front of us: Far East Paradise, the capital star of the Angel Pirates, we need an absolutely sudden attack to extinguish the planet within twenty-four hours. I heard that you have the ability to enter Far East Paradise under the current situation. This is What we are looking for you for."

The Far East Paradise, which is already under absolute military control, is not completely closed. It still allows two types of people to enter: supply transportation from the territory of the Angel Pirates, and Bonnie, an intelligence dealer who controls the movements of the Imperial Army and is trusted by the Angel Pirates. It belongs to the latter.

I don’t know what the group leader sister in front of me was thinking, but her expression suddenly changed.

"Send a super weapon in. This is your mission. You are not allowed to bring any followers. Travel lightly." Viska looked up at Bonnie, seemed to be confused for a moment, then took two steps back, "You can refuse, It is not difficult to collapse the entire Angel Pirate territory, but my brother needs something from their hands, so he came to you."

"Send a... weapon in, a bomb... or something, right..." Bonnie's face turned a little pale, and she was a little helpless, but she still nodded, "Okay, I will do it, but my people, those private Plunder group..."

"Hey, did you misunderstand something?"

I finally guessed what the other party was thinking about just now, "Don't worry, as long as you don't make a big mistake, you are not in danger. Although you are asked to transport doomsday weapons, I am not asking you to die."

This is the crux: Bonnie thought that we were reluctant to kill our own people, so we found an unlucky guy like her to carry out a death mission. This is not uncommon in this universe, and basically half of their forms are It requires you to transport a large number of doomsday weapons to kill your employer's enemy. Just like our mission, misunderstandings arise.

After hearing my explanation, Bonnie was stunned for a moment, then blinked her eyes and looked around, and found that everyone was very serious, so she felt relieved.

"Then...it is indeed easier for me to sneak in. I have had 'deals' with several senior leaders of the Angel Pirates, but if the weapon is too big, I'm afraid it will be discovered, right?"

I pushed Lilina forward: "Well, this is the weapon you want to transport. You know her, although the process may not be pleasant."

Bonnie: "..."

"What are you looking at! Believe it or not, I will plant something on you again!" Lilina bared her teeth and bared her teeth at the other party, "And boss, what are you talking about! You said such a cute little lolita to Lilina become……"

Regardless of Lilina's protest, the matter was basically settled. Due to the urgent task, we immediately started arranging for Lilina and Bonnie to set off. As for more things that needed attention, Lilina was asked to meet the latter halfway. Speak slowly.

"Now we should think about our next move." After Bonnie left, I asked Sivis to reopen the star map. "Even if we capture the debris from the angel pirates, Tavel will still need time to analyze it. Now in the East Sky District The rebels have been decimated in number under our continuous attacks, but they can still get a steady stream of reinforcements from the Great Nebula, which shows that the enemy has not been broken yet. We need a large-scale battle to explore the bottom line of the rebels. , set a trap with the help of those transmitters we already control..."

"Buzz...sizz..."

Suddenly a loud voice echoed in the command hall, interrupting my words.

Sivis immediately reached the edge of the officer's platform with his command knife in hand: "What's going on?! A signal jamming attack by the rebels?"

"Please wait a moment, sir. A super-strong signal that spreads out at an infinite speed suddenly appeared in the background radiation. It interfered with the flagship's antenna array. We are analyzing it...Wait a minute, we have received urgent information from the West Sky District. The level of urgency is...fatal!"

"The red giant's psionic energy collapsed out of control, the test failed, and the red giant fortress was exposed!!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation at *** (***.***), ***, your support is my greatest motivation.)
