Chapter 1150: Being a villain in vain
The words have reached this point, if we don't cooperate sincerely and fight side by side again, there seems to be no way to stop. So the two parties agreed to gather on the shore of the big lake in two hours.
However, after Long Yuan left, Miss Serlu still said to her superior: "Your Excellency, I think there must be something fishy about this matter! This must be a conspiracy of the people on earth!"
"But, that's not an Earthling. He has yellow eyes and green hair, but he's a typical Tirero person."
"That's it! As a Tirello, you actually serve in the Community. What an uncultivable traitor!" Miss Viscount was furious.
"What you said is a bit too much. Before the independence of the community, the Tireluo people had immigrated to the earth for many generations. There were not a few people in the Empire who stood by Victoria Lee at the beginning." Soback was helpless. Said: "Isn't this the case here? There are not a few knights and nobles born on earth, and there are even marshals and princes."
"Well, it shows that there are still many people on earth who understand who represents the future and honor of mankind. There are always some who choose to fall, and some who are willing to embrace the light." Miss Viscount said.
This can no longer be called double standards, but a complete issue of stance.
Soback felt that it would be dangerous to discuss this kind of issue, and he had no position to slander other people's simple patriotic sentiments, so he could only casually say: "So, what do you think their purpose is?"
Miss Serlu really thought about it seriously, and then said: "By the way, didn't he just say that he was waiting for reinforcements? We are reinforcements, doesn't it mean that they arrived first? Your Excellency, this continental plate is They just opened it the day before yesterday. Didn't they want to prove it first? , the community is the newcomer. Moreover, even if we successfully capture this unknown animal, even if we put in most of our efforts, the world will only know that the people on earth are the discoverers... Bah, it is obviously ours. Same race! That’s why traitors are hateful.”
"But, what's the point?" Soback said with a smile: "Strictly speaking, this ring and this galaxy were discovered first by the Community's fleet. However, His Highness Brunhilt has already said, This is the New World, and there is no written exploration and development treaty. No matter what tricks you play, it is nothing more than a verbal advantage. In the final analysis, everything here must be reflected in strength."
Miss Serlu pondered for a moment, and there was already a very obvious element of dissatisfaction in her words: "So, I don't understand, why did the Privy Council issue an order to withdraw the troops? Your Excellency, we were the ones who came first from the beginning. , and our military strength and combat effectiveness have obvious advantages in this Ring of Miracles, the Dawn Star Territory, and even the entire New Continent.”
Soback was so shocked by the eldest lady's resentment that he felt helpless and said helplessly: "Lieutenant Colonel Serlu, you don't seem to be a topic that we need to care about, nor is it a topic that we can care about. You just said these words to me. It’s even more pointless. You don’t think of me as a member of the Privy Council?”
"...Yes, I'm sorry." The eldest lady lowered her eyelids and bowed her head to apologize: "I, I shouldn't vent this emotion to you. In fact, you should be the most angry one among us, but you did it for us I'm really, really sorry!"
Actually, I'm really not angry at all. Some time ago, the two sides gathered thousands of warships for a confrontation here. The scene was so hot that it seemed as if just a drop of oil could burst into flames. For two whole months, I could only sleep for two or three hours a day, for fear that some stupid young man would accidentally fire his gun while I was sleeping and trigger an all-out war.
After such a torment, I will lose weight and lose my appearance, but you war maniacs are gearing up every day and don't care whether others can bear it or not.
Soback felt very tired for a while. Of course, he already knew the mental state of most of his subordinates very well, and could even take it calmly. However, adapting is one thing, whether you feel tired or not is inevitable.
"However, Your Excellency, I think you can definitely enter the Privy Council. Even if it is not possible, you should be in the Grand Marshal's Mansion." Miss Serlu said.
I will not be protected by the spirit of the universe when you send me to the guillotine. Soback waved his hand helplessly and said sincerely: "My biggest dream is to serve in the Logistics Department. If I can retire as the branch director in the Logistics Department and enjoy the retirement benefits of a lieutenant general, my life will be complete."
"You are so humble. But... you were born in the New World after all. You did not go to elementary school or middle school in the Royal Public School in the imperial capital, let alone graduate from the Royal Knights Academy and the Royal Fleet Academy. If you rise too fast, you will easily cause gossip. It is indeed necessary Keep it low-key. But don’t worry, no matter what happens, our old subordinates will always be on your side.”
Why do you always interpret my words in the most distorted direction? Just listen to them literally! Soback said angrily: "In short, be prepared to fight against large targets. Especially have our support vehicles and medical teams on standby. Also, send a letter to Commander Farrell of the Vulcan Airan, Said there was a new discovery.”
Although the Angel of Dawn is still parked near the ring to deter the remnants of the Marauders (and the "allies"), King Brunhilt of Sulyuka has already rushed to the Gate of Glory for a meeting. Therefore, the person currently in charge of the affairs of the entire military is Admiral Farrell, who made a big splash in the "Mission of Glory" military exercise and the Battle of Recapture the Lion's Den. He is currently sitting on board the Vulcan Airan, a ship of the same class as the Angel of Dawn.
These are also the only two Titan ships that the Empire will leave in the Dawn Star Territory after the withdrawal begins.
The arrogant officers and soldiers of the empire firmly believed that even if only these two cutting-edge Titans were left, they would be enough to bring down all eight decrepit Dauntless ships of the Earthlings on the opposite side. But even if it's two versus eight, I still have the advantage, and there's no need to do any extreme operations. Our majestic empire does not only have two.
On the other side, Lieutenant Colonel Long Yuan, who had a Tirello face, had returned to his comrades, and said to another psyker who was also wearing a heraldry machine: "Sir Chaimen, unfortunately, the person opposite The Imperial Exploration Team was led by Yeager Soback. They were not fooled and directly agreed to our proposal for joint operations.”
"Well, he is indeed an impeccable wise general, worthy of being Commander Yu Company's old enemy." Brigadier General Chaimen sighed with regret.
"Yes! What an amazing talent my uncle is. How could his old enemy, who can let him take a high look, fall for such a lame trick like mine." Long Yuan sighed old-fashionedly.
"...Is that thing really that powerful?"
"Xia Guan has no concrete evidence yet. However, based on some special methods of the master, we can generally infer some good or bad luck." Long Yuan said seriously. When Chaimen thought about the strange scene of this young man singing and dancing by the lakeside for half an hour with a money sword and a feng shui dish, he was immediately shocked and believed most of it.
"Xiaguan thought, with the strength of either of us, if there is the slightest carelessness, there will be heavy casualties. However, if the two parties add up, it should be stable." Long Yuan sighed: "Xiaguan The officer originally thought that if he sent this information, with the style of the imperial devils, he would definitely leave us alone and act on his own. However, he did not expect that Soback would come to the rescue. The Brigadier did not do this at all. Either he has seen through our plan, or he is a truly upright gentleman. Either way, I am acting like a villain!"
Brigadier General Chaimen didn't know how to comfort the other party for a while, so he had to say: "So, we can only act with the empire?"
"Why not? Anyway, our goal is to explore this new area. Since the other party is a gentleman, then we don't have to be villains, and it will be clean."
"Okay. Anyway, we are going to war with an ancient fantasy beast. I hope that thing is a gorgeous and majestic guy like a dragon or a lion. My sword is already hungry and thirsty. Call Nani and his team over!" Chaimen! The Brigadier decided to give up thinking and geared up.
He was promoted to the fourth level in the medical cabin. When he returned to his post, most of the battles against the predators were over, and now he really felt a little dissatisfied with his desires.
As for where this continent should belong, and who should capture the magical animals, this is not something they have to consider.
"Fantasy beast..." Long Yuan raised his eyebrows, his expression was a bit strange, but he still kept the rest of his words to himself.
Two hours later, nearly three hundred fully armed marines from both sides, led by twelve psykers, finally gathered at the edge of the lake.
Looking at the sparkling, clear and warm lake water, it is really hard to imagine that this is actually an artificial lake hanging in a space building. It is even more unimaginable that there is a giant beast that is more than three times the size of a blue whale.
However, the empire's reconnaissance drone circled the large lake twice, scanned the entire lake with small guided gravity detection, and then dropped several detectors into the lake.
Ten minutes later, they got the same reconnaissance information as the people on Earth, and even scanned the shape and outline of the opponent.
"It doesn't look like a fish...well, it looks more like a reptile with sixteen legs." Viscount Serlu said.
"And the legs are extremely long. Or, more like extremely long tentacles?"
Chaimen thought about the possible image of that thing, and guessed that it must have lost its prestige and splendor, and he was immediately disappointed. Looking at Soback next to him, he already had a look of disgust on his face.
The two brigadiers looked at each other and couldn't help but feel happy. Suddenly, they both felt that the other party seemed to be a capable master.
"Prepare the deep water concussion bomb!" Miss Serlu said. She decided to seize the initiative no matter what, at least in terms of historical records, it had to be the Empire's hand.
Chaimen glanced at Long Yuan, who just responded with a cool hand gesture.
Twelve drones whose function was actually for reconnaissance were struggling to hang bombs that were more than one circle larger than their bodies. They flew hundreds of meters above the lake and aimed the bombs at the target. The location was thrown in.
This may be the first time that both sides have used powerful weapons in this miraculous world-wide continent.
"It would be interesting if these bombs could blow through the entire continent." Such a thought suddenly flashed through Soback's mind.
However, after completing the gorgeous bombing mission, the drone did not evacuate. It just hovered over the lake, facing the honeycomb missile bay on the wing to the lake, and prepared for the next attack.
Immediately afterwards, dull explosions continued to rise from under the lake. Along with the lake water rising into the sky, there are also more than ten long beards shining with red light.
Where is the tentacle? It is clearly a mechanical whip made of metal.
