Chapter 235: A New Beginning

(This chapter is 18,000 words! Dedicated to singles, I hope to get out of singles as soon as possible!)

When the construction and transport fleet of the ground base finally ascended and retreated to the altitude of more than 20,000 meters on planet jno.3, on the ground, those missile launch towers, machine gun fortresses and those The chariot troops have gradually stopped attacking.

Because those boundless swarms of flying or crawling insects have completely submerged the buildings on the ground base Hope that humans abandoned when they escaped!

If you look down at the ground from the Xuan window above the sky, there is nothing left except for the billowing black gunpowder smoke soaring into the sky and the dense bugs that have already crowded the entire island. The creations of civilization turned into broken eaves and broken walls in an instant...

Although the bugs crawling on the ground with their legs or bodies have no choice but to gradually fly up to the human building community at an altitude of more than 30,000 meters and other retreating troops, those bugs that can fly like dragons still give up their lives. Death, relentlessly swooping up.

In addition to these bugs, there also seemed to be a huge, flying balloon-shaped monster bug in the sky?

Not only are they numerous in number, but they are also extremely large, even larger than human armored transport spaceships! The opponent's back looked bulging, as if it was filled with some kind of gas?

Then, their huge bodies, like huge hydrogen balloons, were floating up in the direction of the human convoy.

What reassures the humans retreating in a hurry is: They seem to rely on the buoyancy of the air to rise?

Therefore, with their huge bodies and clumsy speed, even if they still gather towards the sky where the human beings are retreating unwillingly, maybe they will never catch up with the human troops, right? !

Compared to these clumsy and disgusting big monsters, those dragon bugs that are attacking desperately are more deadly!

Fortunately, the speed of these flying dragons is slightly slower than the retreating speed of humans when they are high in the sky. When they attack from below, they spray those poison sacs upwards, which are seriously affected by the gravity of the planet. Constraints can only be ruthlessly shot down by human fighter planes or spaceships, aircraft cannons on buildings, and warning guns in vain.

Occasionally there are a few fish that slip through the net that fly up, but there is no way to cause too much influence among the huge human team.

"it's all over……"

Doug frowned.

Sitting silently in her own commander's seat.

Now, what makes her feel very puzzled is: those bugs, they still have the ability to enter space and fly?

At this moment, apart from some flying insects that are still relentlessly chasing their own special fleet composed of various flying buildings, there are also some that are besieging and chasing them in front. The colony ship Hope supposed to be in geosynchronous orbit?

How can this be? How did the bugs do it?

Don't they fly by flapping their wings aerodynamically? How can it survive in the vacuum environment of the universe? Can it fly that fast? What about their breathing, their power?

This is not scientific at all!

Originally, Doug thought that as long as they humans ran into the universe, those bugs would no longer be able to help him! But now, the Hope, which was fleeing ahead, gave her a blow in the head!

"How? Have you managed to contact the Hope?"

With a slightly anxious tone, Doug asked a communications officer eagerly.

The speed of the Colonial Spaceship Hope in front is obviously much faster than those of their flying buildings and transport spaceships and the few surviving wraith fighters!

Therefore, they could only watch the No. Hope fly farther and farther in the entanglement and battle with a group of bugs, but they could only slowly follow behind each other, and they couldn't help even if they wanted to.

Fortunately, the Hope didn't enter warp speed, or it jumped away directly, otherwise, they would probably become homeless ghosts?

"Report to the commander! Although we have received some fragmented information, we are still unable to contact the bridge of the Hope, so..."

After reconfirming all the signals in his holographic interface, a communications officer could only shake his head at Doug with a wry smile.

Now, no one knows what happened on the Hope, how the hull was damaged and the casualties, etc.!

At this time, they were still strongly disturbed, and with only optical instruments, they could only see the back of Hope in the distance.

Their home colony ship Hope, her huge and bloated hull, is being besieged by thousands of flying dragons, and around it, except for the turrets and missile launchers on the ship, In addition to non-stop counterattacks, there are only a small number of wraith fighters, which are resisting in vain, and are destroyed by a huge number of insects from time to time, turning into tattered metal floating coffins floating in the universe...

"damn it!!!"

After swearing, Doug slammed his fist hard on the armrest of the seat.

Now, they are in a strange state between humans and bugs:

In the forefront is the human spaceship Hope. It is heading towards the outer orbit of the galaxy at full speed in order to get rid of the bugs. However, its huge hull makes it impossible to accelerate its speed in a short time. .

And following around or behind the Hope, there are thousands of flying dragons and insects. They are trying to catch up, while attacking the Hope desperately, or being attacked by the Hope!

Behind the bugs, the flying buildings of the ground base formed the alternative fleet of Commander Doug, and they followed behind slowly but firmly at a speed slightly slower than the Hope.

In the end, behind Doug and his team were those countless flying dragon swarms. The number seemed to be densely packed, even if it was less, it would be at least tens of millions?

However, fortunately, after the bugs began to enter the universe, and after Doug and his buildings gradually escaped from the serious influence of the planet's gravitational force, the speed was gradually increased, and the bugs behind them were dangerously thrown into the distance. In this kind of weird static balance, in this situation, no one can do anything to anyone!

"Commander! There is an unfamiliar communication requesting a connection, do you want to connect?"

Suddenly, in the command hall, a communications officer who was trying to contact the Hope cried out in surprise.

Because, she discovered, there was a communication request for an identification code that she didn't know? The channel of the other party seems to belong to human beings?

But...she didn't have any identification code of the other party, so she couldn't know the other party's real identity.

"Come in now!"

Where does Doug care if the other party is a stranger or familiar?

Now, she, who has been unable to contact the Hope, has long been anxious.

So, after ordering the communication officer to connect, she hurriedly walked behind the other party. She wanted to see, who was the strange communication that requested to be connected? Why at this time?

Or, could it be the Hope that has lost contact, and other emergency contact methods have been activated?

"Haha! Commander Doug? Nice to meet you!"

"This is Captain Planck! Oh, no! I am now the captain of the No. 1 battlecruiser! Excuse me, what is going on with you? Why can't I get in touch with the Hope?!"

Uncle Planck, who was originally the captain of the armored transport ship ys001, was promoted exceptionally not long ago after the five heavy battlecruisers of the Hope were completed and launched on schedule. He became the captain of the No. 1 battlecruiser and the temporary fleet commander of the battleship fleet.

Not long ago, he was ordered to lead a large group of recruits assigned to five battleships to conduct a long-distance deep space training exercise.

Then, this morning, they were able to finish all the scheduled training programs and start the return flight.

Not long ago, after finishing repairs and supplies at the No. 2 base, when they were about to leave the interstellar port and return to the orbit of the Hope, they suddenly found that they could not contact the Hope no matter what?

After several attempts to contact failed, he had no choice but to discuss with the commander of the No. 2 base for a while, and then he could only try to contact the command center at the ground base of the jno.3 planet.

It's a pity that I don't know what's going on in this star field, and the communication has been disturbed a lot. After many efforts, until now, they finally managed to contact the number that was chasing the Hope, and at the same time The command center of the No. 1 base who is fleeing for his life.

"Planck...is that you?"

"Great! Can your battleships fight now? Hurry up! The Hope needs support! The situation is extremely urgent! Please come quickly to support!"

After seeing that the person opposite turned out to be Planck, and she heard the other party talking about the No. 1 battlecruiser, Doug finally realized that it seemed that the old alcoholic was the battleship that was launched a while ago. Chief and Interim Commander?

Then, after realizing that there were five powerful battlecruisers at the opponent's place, she hurriedly asked loudly, and at the same time asked the opponent to use the fastest speed to rescue the little one who was being captured first. A group of flying dragons and insects chased and intercepted the Colonial Spaceship Hope!

After all, the Hope is the root of these human beings. Before finding a planet suitable for human survival, once there is a problem with this huge colonial starship, she, Doug, can't even imagine that when the time comes, waiting for them What kind of tragic fate will human beings have?

"Ah? Okay, okay! Please send us the coordinates immediately! Now, we can jump over there soon!"

Seeing Doug on the opposite side with such a flustered expression, Plank was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses.

Then, trembling with fright, he hurriedly put away the bottle and unscrewed the bottle, and was about to take two sips of the bottle, and said to Doug in a hurry.

At the same time, he was also hastily explaining certain tasks to some crew members beside him.

"Quick! Send them the coordinates right away!"

Not caring about anything else, Doug turned his head coldly and ordered to the communications officer.

"Planck! You must hurry up and save the Hope! Please!"

After seeing the communications officer complete his order in a panic, Doug pleaded to Plank opposite the holographic screen in a half-pleading tone.

"Don't worry, Commander Doug, I know the seriousness of the matter!"

After finishing speaking, Planck turned around and walked to the other side without thinking about turning off the communication.

"..."

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Under the expectant and surprised eyes of Commander Doug, not far in front of the Hope, there were bursts of space warping fluctuations.

Then, just a short while later, a total of five huge heavy battlecruisers instantly jumped and appeared not far in front of the escape direction of the Nozomi.

These five ferocious human ultimate war weapons just surrounded and formed a huge circle, which just got out of the way of Hope's evacuation.

"Haha! Boys! Show those nasty bugs how powerful our battleship is!"

"Attention all attack positions! Listen to my order! Prepare... to fire!!!"

After the five heavy battlecruisers had finished their jumps, only three to five seconds passed, and when the Nozomi passed through the large circle reserved for them, they covered the heavy battlecruisers with their hands, just before Planck. Under the command of the captain and provisional fleet commander, the insect swarms who were trailing behind the Nozomi, who were startled by the sudden appearance of the human battleship, poured out their intensive and terrifying attacks...

Numerous artillery shells of large and small caliber electromagnetic guns, or anti-aircraft missile shooting arrays, as well as various types of large and small laser artillery groups, started to fire violently as if they didn't want money!

In an instant, the five battlecruisers were like hedgehogs with thorns emitting nowhere. The terrifying artillery fire instantly submerged the small group of thousands of flying dragons and insects in the powerful force generated by the attack. light.

"..."

This, is it over?

Seeing the terrifying salvo ahead, Doug was suddenly a little dazed. This was the first time she had truly seen the terrifying power of the battlecruiser fleet!

It's a pity that this is in the universe, and sound cannot be transmitted in a vacuum. Therefore, Doug and the others who were not far behind the Hope could only see countless lights emerging from the five battleships. Behind the scenes, those thousands of flying dragons and insects disappeared in the electromagnetic metal projectiles, missile explosions or strong light energy...

"Very good!!"

The faster the battle comes, the sooner it will end!

After seeing that the Hope, which is currently the livelihood of human beings, was successfully rescued by the timely rescue of five powerful battleships, Doug was excited, and a rare look began to appear in Doug's eyes. Tears.

Now, the threat of the swarms to the Hope has been cleared, and the only thing left is how to get rid of the larger number of swarms following them, right?

Thinking of this, Doug couldn't help feeling sad again.

With such a large number of insect swarms, even five battleships can't do anything to them, right? If it is really forced to fight, maybe the five precious battleships may be submerged here by the sea of ​​insects?

"Commander Doug, you follow the Hope and retreat towards Base No. 2! Now, let us drive away the scum that is following you!"

After solving the threat of the Hope in three or two strokes, Plank quickly turned around triumphantly and reappeared in Doug's holographic communication interface.

Planck is very proud now, very proud!

In his fleet, under the full firepower of these powerful heavy battlecruisers, those 8,000 flying dragons and insects can't make much waves at all!

Isn't it? In just a short volley, the slow-moving bugs were all defeated by them! Except for a few individuals who fled in panic, the others all turned into dust floating in the universe.

"There are quite a few insect swarms following us, are you sure you are sure?!"

Doug was still a little worried. After all, they were followed by a larger number of flying dragons...

If she is not sure, she still thinks it is better to retreat for the time being?

At least, avoid the spirit of the bugs first, and when there is a chance, prepare some weapons of mass destruction, and then go back and trouble these bugs?

"Don't worry, Commander Doug! The Yamato cannon on the bow of our battleship has begun to gather energy, and a round of salvo will be launched soon! Therefore, I suggest that you better hurry up!"

After solving the threat of the Hope, Plank was complacent, and quickly took out his bottle of spirits again, and began to drink in small sips.

A man like him, Mr. Planck, was born to sail the biggest boats, fire the biggest guns, and drink the strongest wine!

Now he suddenly felt that he had spent most of his life smuggling and wasting most of his life, but now, everything was worth it!

Although Planck also felt that it was absolutely impossible to completely wipe out the huge swarm of bugs that were following them, but if it was just to defeat and scare them away, he was still quite confident.

"volley?"

At the same time, Doug and the others also discovered that the five battlecruisers that were facing their bows, their huge muzzles seemed to be charging?

Is that... Yamato Cannon? Fusion shot? !

"Oh! Hell! Everyone listens to the order: Immediately bypass the battleship formation at full speed! Hurry up!!"

Seeing this, Doug also seemed to have a little understanding of what that Planck lunatic wanted to do.

He actually wanted to use energy scattering to fire the Yamato cannons of the five battleships in salvo, directly destroying the insect swarms that were dragging the long line?

You must know that the Yamato Cannon is the most powerful energy weapon currently controllable by humans. It uses a high-density magnetic field to forcibly compress and concentrate the energy of a nuclear explosion into a beam of energy before it is violently launched.

Of course, if it is necessary, instead of concentrating its huge energy into a beam, if it is shot out in a planar shape, although the power and shooting distance will be reduced, the range that can be damaged can be increased. Great improvement!

This, just like Planck is preparing to do now!

"Hahaha! I like this cannon!"

After Commander Doug and their team took a look at the passing, Planck brazenly ordered the launch of the battleship's Yamato gun salvo.

Then, when he saw those endless swarms of insects instantly submerged in the blazing white light, he laughed wantonly while drinking.

Base No. 2 in the asteroid belt, here, is a flat asteroid with a radius of several kilometers that is located on a slightly flat surface and equipped with a power plant.

It is located at the periphery of the orbit of the asteroid belt, artificially controlled by the same speed and direction, coupled with the intelligence brain, and has been moving synchronously and parallelly with the asteroid belt.

And the command center of the No. 2 base, and other buildings, are on the two sides of this flat asteroid. You read that right, it is two sides!

If it is normal, you can see countless sv engineering vehicles, which are constantly going back and forth between the asteroid belt and the No. 2 base, collecting those metal ores, or simply dragging a small The small asteroid was forcibly dragged back to the smelting plant of the No. 2 base to smelt various metals.

But today, this kind of busy scene in the past can no longer be seen!

Countless sv engineering vehicles were either parked in the open space of the base and stacked neatly; or they all returned to the command center or various factories.

Now it is replaced by: five huge heavy battlecruisers and Hope, the most important colonial mother ship of mankind at present, are circling the asteroid not far from the second base, with the same speed and orbital direction Accompanied by the flight.

At this time, the flat asteroid in the original No. 2 base has also become much more crowded than usual.

Because, the command center, barracks, heavy factories, etc. of the jno. Be full.

On the Hope, quite a number of SV engineering vehicles with experience in space operations are busy repairing the damaged outer wall and bow, trying to restore the colonial ship as soon as possible.

But now, almost all the senior officials of the Hope, including the military chiefs of various departments, some members of the colonial city council inside the Hope, and the commanders of the two bases, have gathered here on the Hope, the best infirmary. outside the corridor.

"..."

"I don't know, what's going on now..."

"I hope everything is okay..."

"well……"

A group of people just chatted in whispers in the corridor outside the corridor.

These people, including Doug, Galen, Darius, Plank, etc., except for Little Anne who has disappeared temporarily, all of them have gathered here, and they are standing on tiptoe anxiously, thinking Peer through the protective glass door of the medical room.

Actually, the reason why Doug’s ground base, the No. 2 base, and the battleship formation led by Plank could not contact the Hope was because: their Hope was suddenly broken out, and they didn’t know how to use it. What a way to hide their tracks and attack the flying dragon swarm that came up, they were caught off guard!

Although the No. Hope responded immediately and turned to switch tracks and began to escape, but the vital point of the No. Hope, the bridge as the command center and communication hub, was directly broken by the attack of the swarm during the escape. up...

This is also the reason why the communication was suddenly interrupted when the Hope was trying to contact the ground base!

As for the bridge of Hope, which was beaten into tatters, the senior crew members on it were killed or injured, and almost none of them were relatively intact!

At that time, Captain Leona, who was the captain and the highest military and political commander, was also unfortunately affected by the attack. Moreover, during the sudden attack of the bugs at that time, she almost died because of it!

If it hadn't been for the Zhinao Shuguang who manipulated the robot and rescued her first, the current Captain Leona would have either been corroded and dissolved by the poison sac of the flying dragon, or she would be just like other unlucky people. , was sucked out of space from the damaged bridge windows...

Of course, although she was rescued in time by Zhinao Shuguang, she was still alive! However, serious injuries are definitely indispensable!

Otherwise, it wouldn't have happened that the entire Hope had no leader and would just let the brain control the spaceship to escape!

At that time, as long as anyone could stand up in time and order to re-contact the two bases or the battlecruiser fleet, the outer wall of the Hope would not have been attacked by the swarm for so long, and it would still be so damaged serious.

"Doctor Soraka, Captain Leona...how is it?"

Finally, after the automatic glass door of the medical room opened to both sides, Doug impatiently moved forward and asked Soraka who came out.

Although, she also saw: Soraka, the Hope ship, the only doctor of human medicine and biology, is walking out of the medical operating room with a relaxed face. Presumably, there must be no Captain Leona inside. What a big deal.

However, Doug was still very worried, for fear that something would happen to the captain and her friend Leona.

"Fortunately, don't worry, the rescue was done in a timely manner, and he won't die for the time being!"

After working hard for a long time, and finally rescued Captain Leona, Soraka couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, with a trace of fatigue showing on his face.

In fact, she herself is quite tired now, after so much surgery to save the captain today, she really wants to sleep for a while now.

But... after thinking about the number of wounded on Hope, she planned to wash her face to refresh herself, and then go directly to other operating rooms to check the situation.

Anyway, the captain is fine here, and it's just a waste of medical resources for her to stay here.

"Where is she...how is her body? When will she wake up?"

In a hurry, Doug glanced into the medical operating room, and saw that the medical dormant chamber was still in operation, and there was no sign of opening it, so he couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

Now, the human side of the Hope is still seriously threatened by the swarms!

Even before, Planck's five battlecruisers fired a salvo of Yamato guns to wipe out and disperse the large wave of dragon swarms, but so far, all detection information shows that the worms did not intend to let humans leave The idea of ​​this star field!

They are actually gathering forces, and from different directions, they are slowly but firmly sailing towards the No. 2 base of the Human Hope, and towards the orbit of the asteroid belt!

They not only have the huge number of flying dragon bugs, but also those huge balloon-shaped bugs that can float up, and there seem to be several giant bug-like battleships?

Although their speed is not very fast, they are still sailing towards the No. 2 base of the Hope.

At the latest, they will reach the vicinity of the human base No. 2 and start fighting tomorrow morning!

Therefore, Doug urgently needs Captain Leona to wake up now and make urgent decisions! Or, make the necessary personnel arrangements?

Even if she can't be in charge, at least she should appoint a temporary captain who can take over her post, right? Otherwise, who should they listen to now?

"Heh... still want to wake up?"

When Dr. Soraka was thinking about which operating room to help, when she heard Doug's words, she almost laughed out of anger!

Captain Leona suffered such serious injuries, it's pretty good if she didn't die on the spot!

If it weren't for Soraka's self-thinking that her medical skills were superb enough, the current Captain Leona would definitely be on the list of those who died in battle! How could you still want to wake up now? Dream it!

She is very clear! Now, the other party is basically an unconscious vegetative state, and if he doesn't stay in the dormant medical warehouse for more than half a year, he can't easily regain consciousness!

"I can assure you with certainty: if there is no at least eight months for the dormant treatment cabin to slowly repair, she will never be able to open her eyes!"

After scanning the high-level members of the Hope in front of him, Soraka sighed and stated his diagnosis.

Captain Leona's current state is like a kind of hibernation similar to dying self-protection! Therefore, long-term minimally invasive treatment, even as small as the repair of cells and neurons, is very necessary!

"Eight...eight months?! What about the Hope? Those bugs can't give us that long!"

Hearing this, among the three councilors, the head speaker kept patting his palms and talking anxiously.

"That's right! Tomorrow morning or noon at the latest, those bugs will be here soon!"

"that is!"

"What the hell are we going to do?"

When the speaker took the lead to speak out about this matter, other people also whispered to each other.

"I'm just a doctor, how do I know what you should do?!"

Soraka looked at the group of people, and retorted angrily.

She is just a doctor who sees a doctor. How can she know how to deal with such military or political matters?

"Won't you choose another person to take charge?"

Anyway, Doctor Soraka knows that Captain Leona is absolutely hopeless!

Since the bugs are coming soon, the best way is to quickly re-elect a new person in charge!

Or, simply let humans evacuate this asteroid belt first? For such a simple matter, wouldn't it be good for them to vote quickly?

"This... this doesn't seem to comply with the relevant regulations... Suguang?"

The speaker froze for a moment, then looked into the medical operating room, then frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Finally, after a while, he tried to call Zhinao Shuguang.

"According to the safety agreement of the Nozomi: when the current captain of the Nozomi is unable to perform the duties of the captain and does not appoint an acting captain in time, a new captain can be elected by voting between the Nozomi Speaker and the highest military officer. acting as the captain."

Zhinao Shuguang is also paying attention to this matter throughout the whole process. Now, after hearing the speaker's inquiry, it gave the answer the other party wanted to know in the first time.

Although Captain Leona is not dead now, the other party's state is in line with the description of the regulations on captain replacement in Zhinao Suguang's safety agreement.

"Is that so... First Mate Doug? What's your opinion?"

Hearing this, the speaker knew that there was such a thing.

After that, he immediately looked at the commander of the No. 1 base, Doug, the former first officer of the Hope.

Now, the highest officer of the military seems to be the former first officer, right? In this case...he himself seems to have a chance to become the new captain? Moreover, the chances are still great?

This young former first officer also relied on Leona's relationship to get ahead so quickly. Presumably, she shouldn't be his opponent, right?

"You can figure it out... Now, I just want to go in and see Captain Leona..."

After finishing speaking, Doug, who looked a little dazed, ignored the other party's reaction, and walked straight past Dr. Soraka at the door, and walked directly into the medical operating room.

In this medical operating room, it is her friend Leona who just finished the operation and stays unconscious in the medical warehouse!

Therefore, before she deals with other things, she must first take a look at the other party.

"Hey! Stop for me! You people, what are you trying to do?!"

When seeing Doug go in, Dr. Soraka didn't intend to stop him at all.

However, when she saw that the members of the House of Hope and the military's Galen and Darius wanted to follow in, she quickly reached out to block the door and stopped them arbitrarily.

"Of course I went in to visit Captain Leona, what else can I do?"

Captain Planck, who was stopped first, glared at the doctor dissatisfiedly, breathing heavily from his mouth.

He didn't understand, if Commander Doug could go in, why couldn't they go in? Is this discriminatory?

Open your eyes and take a good look, after all, he is also the captain of the battlecruiser and the commander of the temporary fleet!

Could it be that even if you want to go in and visit Captain Leona now? He must have the qualifications, right?

"Go back, go back, return everything to me! Now I declare: From now on, no male creatures are allowed to enter this medical room!"

"Captain Leona is just staying in the dormant medical cabin for treatment, what's so good about it? I warn you, go away and go to choose your new captain immediately!"

Now the dormant medical cabin inside, Captain Leona, is staying naked inside the transparent shield, soaking in those repairing tissue fluids, and will be repairing for eight months!

Where are these male creatures that they can go in and look at casually?

Is this trying to take advantage?

Therefore, Dr. Solaka ruthlessly blocked all these people from the medical room, and at the same time issued new instructions to the medical room with his own medical authority.

From now on, any male, whether human or dog, is strictly forbidden to enter!

"..."

"Well……"

"Oh! Almost forgot about it!"

A group of senior military officers and congressmen were stunned for a moment before they came back to their senses.

After thinking about it, they thought it was the same. In the dormant medical warehouse, it is true that no clothes can be worn, and it is really inconvenient for men like them to go in...

Tsk, what a pity...

"Okay, okay! If that's the case, don't go in, everyone, hurry up and wait in the meeting room in the military zone!"

"Dawn, here's a notice to all military officers and councilors who have the right to vote: They are required to arrive at the meeting room in the military area within half an hour, and they will be deemed to have abstained!"

Since they couldn't enter the medical room to visit Captain Leona, everyone had no choice but to give up.

Then, under the appeasement of the fat and belly speaker, they turned around and walked towards the large conference room in the military area.

"Yes, Speaker! The order has been issued!"

At the same time as everyone turned around, Zhinao Shuguang's voice sounded.

"Gentlemen and ladies! Now, I believe everyone should know about the current predicament of our No. HOPE! Then, time is running out now, so I won't go into details!"

Half an hour later, in a conference room in the military area, Robert, the speaker, was standing behind a rostrum and delivering his speech.

Sitting in the auditorium under the stage are five male and female councilors, Commander Doug of Base 1, Commander of Base 2, Commanders of the Marine Corps, Galen and Darius, tanks Commander Nolan of the army, the captain of the Wraith Fighter Squadron, and the interim commander of the battleship fleet, Plank and several other captains, who were ignoring discipline and drinking drowsily.

These people are currently on the Nozomi and have the right to vote for the new captain and supreme commander of the Nozomi.

"Tomorrow at the latest, our place will be surrounded by an endless army of bugs! Therefore, we must elect a new captain of the Hope as soon as possible, and then let him lead everyone out of the current predicament!"

Speaking of this, Speaker Robert paused, straightened his back, looked at the people below, and after roughly estimating the number of votes he could get later, he nodded in satisfaction.

Compared with that young Doug, I seem to have an advantage?

In this case, the position of captain must be in his own pocket, right? This is excellent!

"So, now I, the speaker of the Nozomi Council, officially start running for the captain of the Nozomi!"

"I believe that with my rich experience in governing for many years when I was on Earth, I must be able to lead everyone out of the current predicament and into a more brilliant future! Well, I won't say much, and I hope Yes, everyone can vote for me! Thank you very much!"

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

As soon as Robert finished speaking, several of the congressmen started to take the lead in making everyone applaud together.

From this point of view, they seem to be the speaker's loyal subordinates?

"Okay, we don't have much time, everyone should be quiet first!"

After pressing down his hands and making everyone quiet, he looked at Doug who had been silent all this time with a little satisfaction.

"Uh, Colonel Doug, are you the candidate for the military? Now, it's your turn to speak, please hurry up, we are running out of time!"

If the time is not urgent, Robert is confident that he can blow for an hour or two, or even more! Until most of these people are willing to vote for themselves!

"I'm sorry, Speaker Robert. It's actually not Colonel Doug that the Hope military has the right to participate in the election of the captain!"

Just as Doug stood up and was about to go to the rostrum to say something, Dawn, the intelligence brain of the Hope, suddenly made a sound at this moment.

"this?!"

"No way?"

Then, the information it said shocked everyone in the military.

In their minds, the current highest rank and status in their military is Colonel Doug, the commander of the No. 1 base, right?

Besides her, who else has this qualification? !

Could it be Planck, the fleet commander? Do not make jokes! He is just a temporary acting commander. He has not been appointed yet, and the rank of everyone here is his lowest!

Moreover, based on Planck's bastard's virtue, his usual bad behavior, his habit of drinking, and his prestige is basically zero, he will never be elected in the next life!

"According to my calculations: at present, according to the rank and merit of the Hope, the one with the highest priority should actually be Colonel Anne Hasta!"

After finishing speaking, Zhinao Shuguang immediately opened a holographic communication interface.

Inside, besides the cockpit of a fighter plane, there is also a little girl squatting in the driver's seat, holding a bottle of energy drink, and drinking it in a cabin in a gravity-free environment.

Then, she stuck out her bright red tongue from time to time, licking the droplets of drink that had condensed into balls floating in the air.

"Huh?! It's Aunt Doug, and Galen and you... Hey! How are you? You haven't been eaten by bugs yet?!"

Seeing that the communication was turned on inexplicably, Annie was also stunned for a while, and said with a little regret.

Then, she quickly threw away the bottle of energy drink in her hand, let the leftover liquid splash out and float in the warehouse, and just greeted everyone with a smile on her own.

Originally, she thought: Under the attack of the overwhelming insect sea, the people on the Hope and Doug must have been eaten by the insects. It took several seconds!

"It's Anne? Great! You're okay? Where are you now?"

Seeing that the little girl was fine, Doug and Galen immediately stood up and cheered happily.

Before, because they couldn't practice, they always thought that Little Anne's fighter plane must have crashed under the attack of those huge insect swarms!

But how could he have thought that now, he was actually contacted by Zhinao Shuguang?

"I don't know where I am now... After I just finished fighting those bugs chasing me, my fighter plane didn't have much energy... And then, it's floating, it's here!"

After looking at the dark cosmic space outside the glass of the fighter cabin, Annie said with a bit of distress.

Where exactly is she now, even she herself doesn't know...

At present, in her fighter plane, apart from the life support and communication equipment and energy reserves, the engine has been turned off for a long time!

And she hadn't been able to contact the Hope before, thinking that after those people were all dead, she could only let the fighter plane float calmly in the universe.

"The situation is urgent now! Annie, hurry up and report your coordinates, and then we will send an armored transport spaceship to pick you up immediately!"

Now, shortly after rescuing the Hope, human beings were trapped in this galaxy by worms somehow. They were disturbed and temporarily lost the ability to warp or warp to leave here.

Therefore, in a short while, when the new captain of the Hope is selected, they will immediately start preparing to break out and leave this galaxy. At that time, if Little Annie can't come back in time, then she will probably be banned forever. Lost here!

In that case, the end would be a bit miserable...

"Wait, Commander Doug!"

"I have a proposal: Since the current military candidate, this Colonel Anne, if she can't come back in time, then, I will officially take over as the captain of the Hope and take up my duties first. What do you think? After all , we really don’t have much time left!”

After a snicker, Speaker Robert quickly suggested.

"As for the matter of rescuing Colonel Anne, later, your military can handle it by itself."

Originally, he was planning to run against Colonel Doug, but how could he have thought that the one who was really qualified to run was actually that little girl?

And what's even more wonderful is: the other party is now, but can't come back in time?

He felt that today seemed to be his lucky day? Therefore, he didn't even bother about the outrageous thing that Zhinao Shuguang would let a little alien girl run for election.

"this……"

Doug hesitated for a moment.

Just when she was about to agree to the other party, little Annie in the holographic communication suddenly made a sound.

"Wait! Are you guys playing something fun? Then I want to participate too!!!"

Just now, in the communication, Anne seems to have heard what the other party said about the interesting thing about running for the captain?

And the most important thing is: she herself seems to be eligible to run? Therefore, she, who had nothing to do with herself before, immediately regained her spirits.

Running for the captain of the Nozomi?

How could she not participate in such a fun event? !

She has always wanted to have her own warship! Now, isn't the opportunity here? Then you must not miss it!

Even if she cheats, she must get the captain of the Hope, the position with the most power!

Then, she has the final say on everything!

When the time comes, hehehe...

"I'm very sorry, Colonel Anne! Time is running out now, and I'm afraid you won't be able to make it back... So, I can only take over the position of captain for the time being! Don't worry, I will send the most Good ship to rescue you."

Robert didn't mind that the other party was a little girl, so he said it solemnly.

He had just looked at the other party's location information. The little girl's fighter plane was a little too far away from the orbit of the No. 2 base. Even if they send the fastest armored transport spacecraft to carry out this rescue mission now, they will definitely not be able to return within three to five hours.

So, now that he has the chance to win, the original Colonel Doug is not qualified, and the qualified brat can't come back!

"Hmph! Who said I can't go back? Wait a minute, I'll be right back!"

Since there are better things waiting for her, little Annie can't even take care of this special fighter now!

Therefore, after contemplating for a while, she used magic to sense and lock the coordinates of these people communicating with her, and after Galen's enchanted weapons helped anchor the position, she quickly cast a long-distance Teleport spell.

"Aha! Look! Am I back now? Isn't it a surprise?!"

After a burst of blue arcane light lit up, under the stunned and incredulous expressions of everyone in the conference room, little Annie appeared in the conference room instantly with just a whoosh.

Then, in the holographic communication interface, there was only an empty unmanned cockpit left...

"..."

"this……"

"Ha... so cool!"

What everyone can't think of is that this little girl, she actually, really suddenly, like a leap, was teleported from the distant universe to the current position?

Moreover, is this still a jump made directly with **?

Is this little girl's supernatural magic really so heaven-defying? She is not afraid of being torn into pieces by space?

You know, in the past, in human experiments, it is not that there is no attempt to leap without protection, but those results are usually not very good...

"Now, can we play the captain selection game?"

As soon as it landed, Little Annie hurriedly asked.

"Wait, wait first!"

"I think, Colonel Anne, you are only an eight-year-old girl, and you are not suitable for the position of captain! You may not know that now we are about to fight the bugs and prepare to break through the siege , This kind of military affairs should be handled by adults like us!"

Seeing that the other party came back here suddenly, Chairman Robert became anxious, and quickly changed his mind.

Now, regardless of being surprised by the other party's strange ability, he came out again and reiterated the seriousness of the matter that Hope will face!

And trying to persuade this little girl to give up this campaign, and at the same time, I hope that other people can understand that the power to control the human race on the No. Hope must not be handed over to a little alien girl of unknown origin.

"Huh? Why do you want to break out? If you don't want to fight those bugs, I have a way!"

Annie herself is not stupid, of course she also knows that it must be a very stupid behavior to forcefully fight against that kind of endless bugs.

Now the humans on the Hope, the best way is: think of a way, run far away!

And this way, it just so happens that Little Anne herself has it!

"I can cast spells! Just open a big portal, so that everyone, including the battleship, can easily teleport away before the bugs come around!"

If Annie wanted to get Hope out of this dangerous star field, it would be too easy!

Because, she has a space gem!

Just find a location, use the energy of the space gem to open the portal, let the Hope and other ships, and even the asteroid where the No. Like the tower people!

If the portal is opened in the same cosmic world, and with her own help, Annie feels that it shouldn't consume too much energy.

If the energy is really not enough, she can also use the energy in the time gem to replace it!

In her mind, to open a large portal in the same universe, the addition of two gems should be enough, right?

"Of course, that's a very tiring thing. I will only do that if you choose me as the captain!"

Squinting her eyes, little Annie looked at the chubby captain maliciously.

Just now, this bad guy called the Speaker, he still wants to keep himself from running for the election? hum! Then she chose to choose by herself, and she was mad at him!

Moreover, she also felt that if she was really elected later, the first thing she would do at that time would be to revoke the position of this villainous speaker!

"you you……"

Seeing that the little girl was so cunning and used this method to coerce other people to give her votes, Robert was choked and speechless.

Can only point at the other party with his trembling fat fingers, and panting heavily, the neck seems to have become thicker?

"Hahaha... I like this little girl! So, I have decided now that all the votes for our fleet will be for Colonel Anne!"

Upon hearing that the little girl had a way to get everyone to leave safely, the old alcoholic Planck was the first to jump out.

If they can leave safely, no one would want to fight those endless swarms of bugs!

Planck is not stupid, he believes that others are not stupid either!

Furthermore, this little girl seems to have a good relationship with the military. Like Galen and the others, they will definitely vote for her, so he might as well show up to take the lead and please her.

So, while hiccupping, he issued a statement, agreeing to vote for the precious five votes of his battleship fleet directly to this little ghost whom he has always liked.

"We vote for Colonel Anne too!"

Sure enough, after Galen and Darius looked at each other, they stood up and said.

They have all been greatly favored by little Annie, so in this case, it is obvious that they are helping their relatives but not helping them! What is the name of Robert, and he is not familiar with them, so the speaker is amazing? Who knows who he is?

Besides, Little Annie has a way to teleport everyone away safely!

If she is not selected in this way, Galen and Darius are absolutely 100% sure that this little girl who holds vengeance extremely, will definitely not care about people like them when the time comes!

"Okay, Colonel Anne has got seven votes..."

Zhinao Shuguang's voice sounded at the right time.

Its words have already indicated: the votes of Planck on behalf of the battleship fleet and Galen just now have taken effect!

Now, the votes received by both parties are 7:0. Only a few more votes are needed, and the little girl will be successfully elected as the new captain of the Hope with an absolute advantage.

...

In the end, the poor few votes in the parliament couldn't afford much trouble...

"You, how can you do this?"

Although, Speaker Robert tried his best to win and try to persuade other people to vote for him instead of the little alien girl.

Although, he has repeatedly stated that the other party is only an eight-year-old girl, obviously not suitable for such an important position as a captain, and he keeps hinting to others that this little girl's origin is unknown and her identity is very suspicious.

But in the end, with the unanimous support of Hope's military, after Little Annie promised to use her magic to let everyone on Hope safely bypass the interception of bugs and directly teleport away from this dangerous galaxy.

She easily won the final victory overwhelmingly with the majority of votes, and became the new captain and the highest military and political officer of the Nozomi as she wished!

At the same time, he is still the person with the highest authority on No. Hope!

"Colonel Anne, from now on, you have been officially authorized to become the new captain of the Hope!"

In the end, under the authorization of Zhinao Shuguang, Little Annie officially took the post of captain of the Hope.

"Okay, then, I'm going to issue the first order!"

Afterwards, she immediately signed the first personnel appointment in spite of the strong opposition of others: she dismissed all the posts of Speaker Robert on the spot, and replaced him with a congressman who had just voted for herself!

It's useless to persuade Little Annie to decide the matter!

Who made that fat man compete with him just now? Who made him keep talking bad about himself?

Already Anne thought herself merciful in not burning him on the spot!

Then, at the beginning of the handover of authority, due to the conflict between the titles of the captain of the Hope and the captains of those battlecruisers, little Annie was dissatisfied, and soon after obtaining the consent of other people, the Hope was transferred to the human race. The position of the highest military and political officer here was officially changed from the captain of the Hope to the Supreme Head of Humanity on the Hope.

x month x day 2499 AD

The huge interstellar colony ship Hope, under the blessing of Little Annie using the double energy of the space gem and the time gem, opened a huge portal, allowing the Hope, all the warships and the area where many buildings are located Asteroid No. 2 Base, together, successfully entered the huge portal before the worms besieged them...

...

Afterwards, the group of the Hope began to sail silently for nearly three months in a dark universe where no planets or even stars could be seen. When Little Anne opened the portal again, they finally Finally arrived in a relatively lively star area.

"Report to the head of state! We have arrived at a new cosmic star area. After comparing the star maps, it seems that this place is not far from the center of the Milky Way?!"

"Report to the head of state! We have detected many communication channels and some unencrypted broadcast signals! Moreover, I found that the time of our system seems to be wrong?!"

"Report to the Head of State! We have detected traces of human and bug activity nearby!!!"

"Report to the head of state! We have also detected a habitable planet not far away?!"

"Report to the Head of State! We..."

Not long after passing through the portal, the communications officers and intelligence officers stood up from their positions on the bridge of the heavy battlecruiser No. Mrs. Head of State Anne in the captain's position reported.

Now, after passing through the portal for the second time, they found a lot of strange information.

In this star region near the middle of the Milky Way, there are not only a large number of communication signals, but also signs of human and bug activity? Moreover, their time seems to be wrong?

Originally, when they passed through the portal, it should have been in 2499, but now, among the human signals they received, it was clearly written after 2504?

What's going on here? How could the time be so different? !

"Stop! Don't bother me with things like this in the future, go find Adjutant Doug yourself! Now, all fleets, listen to my order: prepare to jump over to that habitable planet!"

"We're going to grab... oh no! We're going to take over that unowned planet!"

After wandering in the void universe for two or three months, they arrived here only after Little Annie opened the portal again.

So, now she is a little impatient!

Now that she has discovered that there is a habitable planet here, she is not willing to waste the precious energy of her space gem, so she has to hurry over and grab it!

As long as the flag of their Hope is planted on the planet, then, that planet will be their Hope from now on... Oh, no! This is the land of their League of Heroes!

As for whether there is a master or not on that planet, she doesn't want to care about it!

As long as she sticks her flag on the ground of the planet, that planet will become hers, no!

And there are human beings living on those planets! Where are there any human beings? They are obviously a group of natives! And natives have no human rights!

This is the same story as the Indians she learned in primary school in New York! She remembered very clearly that those with guns and cannons in their hands said: America is a new continent, unowned, and the Indians are aboriginals, so they are!

Now, they have five heavy battlecruisers in their hands, and if those indigenous humans who look like humans dare to resist on that livable planet, are they afraid?

It's not like she can't do things like bombarding the planet if it annoys her!

"Obey! The great Head Anne!!!"

A group of military officers suddenly agreed under Little Annie's order, and then began to work on their own.

They have been wandering in the universe for two or three months, and they can't wait to want a planet suitable for their Hope to live in!

Now that they have encountered a suitable one, and the head of state advocates taking it by force, then they can't care about other things because they are itchy, and they should execute the order first!

Moreover, they also felt that what Head of State Anne said was right, that planet must be unowned!

What, you said there was someone above? Sorry, it's too far away for them to see!

...

At this time, the citizens in the colonial city inside the Hope also inexplicably received some strange TV signals on their holographic TVs.

For example, someone saw this passage:

"Today is 2504.x.x.x. A colony of our Mengsk Empire was once again brutally slaughtered by Kerrigan swarms, and now the entire planet has lost its casualties!

look! Here she comes, ah! ! ! "

Then, on the last screen of the TV, a strange half-human, half-worm creature appeared...
