Chapter 885 Unlucky Rosen
The Thunderhawk's ramp opened with a bang, and a figure wearing power armor walked out of it. He came to the edge of the apron and looked down at the crowd below.
Suddenly, he clapped his hands and the sound came through the speaker.
"Okay, boys, assemble."
Soon, mortal guards took the place of the Space Marines, and they gathered into a phalanx under the tarmac.
"You did a good job this time. You solved this problem half an hour earlier than scheduled."
After saying that, Talos bent down slightly.
"Why are you standing there stunned? You can give yourselves a round of applause at this time."
Everyone was used to the company commander's occasional disconnection. After looking at each other, they all applauded.
"Okay, sparsely, I have to teach you how to applaud next time."
Talos shook his head, and all the applause immediately disappeared.
“I have seen your performance in this operation——”
Then, his eyes swept across the five people at the front of the team, and then stopped at Li Lin.
"Li Lin, next time you can't control your desire to kill, then I will not only have to change the captain, but I will also have to hang you outside the hull to calm down. Killing is for better execution. Mission, do not let killing override your mission. This is the last time I will teach you this lesson. Mission, responsibility, is the life of the Astartes, even above life. If you still can't understand, I I can only eliminate you."
Then Talos turned his eyes to Sablin and said with a smile:
"Sablin, although you look awkward when you quarrel with others, you look very handsome when you capture prisoners. You did a good job."
Sablin just raised his chest and saluted an eagle.
"There are three left, which is mediocre, but at least they obeyed the order, which is a good thing."
After saying that, his eyes turned back to Sablin.
“Since you performed the best this time, Sabourin, what do you think is the best way to deal with these prisoners?”
"Follow the company commander's arrangements."
"Ha, you guy, you asked about me instead? You must have your own ideas, tell me."
Sablin looked back He glanced at the prisoners, and then said solemnly:
"It's a pity that this place was destroyed. Keep them, continue to work, and create more value for the battle group."
"Oh, Do you know that these are star thieves, they are stealing the Emperor's property?"
"So isn't it just right for us to use these properties for good purposes?"
Taros was silent for a few seconds, then threw his head back and laughed.
"Hahaha! Soshiyang must like you very much! Okay, let's do it like this, close the team, let's go home, and someone will deal with this later."
" Company Commander, we have to appoint a few managers first so that there won’t be any trouble later.”
“Then go ahead”
Sabourin left the team and walked into the crowd. Jackma was looking at him tremblingly. After stopping, the Space Marine lowered his head slightly and looked at this ugly and short guy.
"I like talking to smart people. You are smart and bold enough. I will give you a chance to stand out from the crowd."
"Big "My lord."
"It's the same question as before, but you haven't answered it yet."
Jack Ma trembled in silence for a few seconds, then knelt down with a thud, his head close to the ground.
"I am willing to serve the Astral Knights for the rest of my life."
"Very good——"
Just as Sabourin turned to leave, the tower on the apron Los suddenly said "Huh" in surprise, and then smiled:
"Oh, there are actually guests at this time. Sablin, you lead a team to greet them. Remember, you must survive."< br>
"Yes, company commander."
The Alibuda groaned and staggered out of the subspace rift carrying a ship full of cargo. Its jets were blocked by years of dirt, and its engines It worked painfully and erratically, and even the navigator was senile, constantly changing course and wasting a lot of fuel.
The voyage from the Blue Ant headquarters to the excavation station of Freezing Point Nine is very difficult, and the profit is very low. There is no money to waste on maintaining such an old cargo ship, let alone replacing it with a new one. .
Captain Rosen knew very well that he might be killed by this broken ship at any time.
He is forty-seven years old, which is the right age for crew members to make achievements. Most people do not live to this age. They are either killed in accidents or die in vain in fights at the port.
Rosen had escaped with his life in two major accidents. Only God knows how many layers of skin he had worn off during the difficult years on the dock. But when he finally took the captain's seat and owned a ship of his own, Finally, he knew he could no longer escape.
He was extremely envious of those guys who could leave at will, but he would never be able to save enough money in his life to replace his broken ship.
But the only consolation is that the crew at least know what they are doing - more than 300 crew members maintain the swollen belly of the ship and the few remaining places that are still livable. area.
The huge vacuum container holds a large number of daily necessities and industrial products, from comfort servitors to boxes of corpse starch. The crew members are all rough and weathered men, and most of them are probably criminals. , just used the Alibuda to hide and hunt.
But as long as they know which end of the multi-function wrench to hold and are willing to use their hands to maintain the equipment, Rosen doesn't care what they do.
He has already dealt with the Star Thieves anyway, so what else does he care about?
The bridge of the Alibuda was humid and hot, filled with the smell of sweat and oil. Rosen's fat body sank into the captain's seat and kept sweating, making the tattered chair slow. Slowly soaked.
Half a jug of good wine was dangling on the armrest of the seat. Although it tasted delicious, the wine was not weak. Rosen relied on it to be able to sleep now.
In front of him is a plastic steel hemispherical observation window, which is embedded in the bow of the ship like an insect's compound eyes. Through the window, you can see the cold and hostile space in which Rosen spent most of his life. , but because it has not been cleaned for a long time, it is stained with a lot of cosmic dust, and it can't actually see far.
The only senior crew member on the ship is probably the skinny and nervous guy from the family of low-level navigators.
In Rosen's opinion, what this navigator does is ridiculous, but the money paid to the navigator family is hard to laugh at - this one is already the cheapest.
Rosen hated space navigation, so he had to keep an eye on the universe all the time. He knew that one day it would steal his bottom and kill him, but before that, he would never Will relax their vigilance.
At an age when he still allowed himself to have true friends, in a ship hull rupture accident, he was once sucked into the vacuum by a hair's breadth, and could only watch helplessly as his friends exploded in the vacuum. .
The universe kills more men than women in bed. This is not an empty statement.
