Chapter 1233: Both Substance and Appearance (Second Update)

Lao Mo has expressed his opinion, and the rest of the people did not hesitate.

Including Feng Er, who seemed to be the most resourceful, they all immediately expressed their absolute submission to Xia Chujian.

And they really admired Xia Chujian from the bottom of their hearts.

Originally in the army, everyone admired the strong.

Now Xia Chujian is not only a little scary strong, but also has so many ways. Moreover, he is not a stingy person and generously shares his ways with everyone.

Although everyone has only been together for a few days, they have already gained a lot of benefits.

They are not stupid, and have been working hard at the bottom. They know this person's fate. Although personal efforts are important, it is more important to see the right situation and follow the right people!

Xia Chujian was not polite and said: "Since Lao Mo has decided so and everyone agrees, I want to report this position to the higher-ups and confirm it publicly."

It is obvious that she wants this team leader as an official position, not a private recognition of the team.

She is a person who wants both the inside and the face.

Lao Mo said, "That's no problem. I'll send a message to the squadron leader right away."

"As for the appointment of the captain of the Space Marine Squad, as long as the squadron leader confirms it and sends the appointment letter, then register on the military website."

Xia Chujian nodded, "Thank you, Lao Mo."

Then he looked at everyone and said, "For the next step, my suggestion is that we should be prepared, wait and see, and not report it for the time being, but keep the reporting channels unobstructed, and be prepared to retreat at any time."

"We just got ten construction robots."

"After they finish renovating the manor hall, they will renovate the manor's air defense system."

"We need a fortification. I think it's better to transform the manor into a solid fortification."

After she finished speaking, the team members looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Lao Mo even said, "Captain Xia, did you think of this as early as when you were trading?"

Xia Chujian thought, of course not that early, but it wouldn't be a few hours later.

Therefore, she neither admitted nor denied it, but continued to smile and said: "When I was repairing the roof, I found that the building materials from the Zerg had particularly strong defensive functions."

"So, next, we can use those Zerg building materials to reinforce the roof first."

"Then the wall outside the manor, and finally the room where we are going to live in the manor, which must also be reinforced with that special building material."

"Finally, we need to apply for some air defense weapons from above and set up the air defense system."

"In this way, as long as the Zerg invade, we can find them in the first time and shoot down their aircraft or spacecraft!"

Everyone was very excited and even full of fighting spirit.

It seemed that even if there were thousands of Zergs in front of them, they could still move forward!

Xia Chujian planned it well and asked Lao Mo to first submit an application for air defense weapons to the equipment department of the Fifth Interstellar Fleet.

Because for now, Lao Mo is still the official captain of the team.

Officially, only Lao Mo can apply on behalf of the team.

As a result, in less than three minutes, they received a "rejected" reply!

Xia Chujian was still chatting with his teammates in the public activity area and had not returned to his room yet.

Lao Mo put the "rejection" sent by the other party on the virtual display screen.

Everyone looked at these two words, as if a bucket of cold water was poured on their heads.

Xia Chujian was also surprised and couldn't help asking: "Rejected? No way? Isn't this within the scope of regulations? What's the reason? There must be a reason, right?"

Before Xia Chujian made this suggestion, he secretly asked Qi Lu to check the regulations of the Star Fleet to make sure that this request was within the permitted scope before applying.

Unexpectedly, he was slapped back by the other party.

Lao Mo coughed and sighed, "I guess that's it... Everything else is easy to say, but it's actually difficult for us to apply for anti-aircraft weapons."

He didn't say it before because he didn't want to pour cold water on Xia Chujian.

Xia Chujian is still young and has not experienced these things. She may not listen to other people's advice.

Besides, Lao Mo also thought, what if?

What if it succeeds this time?

Xia Chujian looks like a wild way...

In the end, there is no what if.

There is only the same old answer - rejection.

Xia Chujian was puzzled: "But why? Aren't we stationed here? And we are the most advanced position in the entire Shaofu Star, and we need this kind of anti-aircraft weapon the most. Why don't they approve us?"

Lao Mo smiled bitterly and said: "We are space marines, and the probability of applying for it is very low."

"If it is wartime, the success rate will be a little higher, but it will also increase from 10% to 20%..."

Xia Chujian said: "Isn't it wartime now?"

Feng Er said: "In theory, our empire's homeland is just preparing for war, and it is not wartime yet."

The implication is that the Southern Cross Army, which is now fighting the Zerg on the Southern Cross, is still far behind the army of the Beichen Empire.

Xia Chujian was still unwilling to give up and said, "Captain Mo, can you ask why we were rejected?"

"Just reject it without giving an explanation?"

Lao Mo said, "I can try, but Captain Xia, you should still call me Lao Mo. Captain Xia is the captain and I am the first space marine under your command!"

Lao Mo's words made everyone laugh.

Xia Chujian also curled the corners of his lips.

Her official appointment as captain has not come down yet, and she doesn't want to make this captain a reality.

As Lao Mo said this, he sent a message to the other side, asking why their application was rejected.

This time the reply came quickly.

The other party said that it was because they were not in wartime.

The air defense system of the entire Shaofu asteroid is under the unified supervision of the starry sky mothership of their Fifth Interstellar Fleet.

He also said that the air defense system of the starry sky mothership not only includes the star field where the asteroid is located, but also the star field about one light year near the asteroid, which is under the air defense monitoring of the starry sky mothership.

Seeing this reply, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

Good, good, as long as they are still within the defense range of the starry sky mothership.

Xia Chujian didn't have any expression.

She stared at the reply, and her intuition was wrong.

But she didn't say it.

And Feng Er and Lao Mo seemed to have noticed something wrong, looked at each other, and then looked at Xia Chujian.

Xia Chujian nodded to everyone and said, "That's it. Captain Mo, Feng Er and I can discuss the future action plan."

When she said that, the rest of the people understood.

They didn't want to stay here anymore. They had to go back and rest after a tiring day.

Although a day here is actually only six hours, they still use Shaofu Star time.

That is, a day is still calculated as 24 hours.

But if they calculate it this way, they can see eight alternations of day and night in a day!

The biological clock can't stand it.

After Xia Chujian and others returned to the room, she asked Lao Mo, "Captain Mo, is there a conference room here?"

Lao Mo said, "I thought about dividing this place into a conference room."

That is, there is no conference room.

Xia Chujian said, "I'll call two construction robots up later and use the building materials from the manor below to renovate this activity room. When necessary, it can be used as a conference room."

What are the main features of a conference room?

It is to have a relatively independent and hidden space.

Lao Mo said, "...If Captain Xia wants a real conference room, should we install surveillance?"

He pointedly looked in the direction of the activity room surveillance.

Xia Chujian understood what he meant.

This is a military aircraft, and the surveillance of the public area must be uniformly controlled by the Starry Sky Mothership.

She said seriously, "Of course it is necessary. Isn't there surveillance in the activity room?"

She was just saying it to reassure the people on the other side of the surveillance, otherwise they would think they were going to block the surveillance.

But Xia Chujian knew that the conference room must be blocked.

Also, everyone's lounge and bathroom must not have surveillance.

Xia Chujian decided that the next step was to let Qi Lu inspect the entire aircraft to see what other hidden surveillance equipment there was.

Now there was no condition, so she could only say, "Then let's go to the manor below to see how the renovation there is."

Lao Mo and Feng Er followed her back to the nearby vast manor.

Xia Chujian once again arranged the quantum encryption program to block surveillance and eavesdropping, and then said to Lao Mo and Feng Er, "Did you realize anything just now?"

Feng Er glanced at Lao Mo.

Lao Mo nodded.

Feng Er said, "We thought of the Zerg spaceship that you, Captain Xia, destroyed."

"... There seems to be no news from the Starship."

"Captain Xia, where did you destroy the Zerg spaceship? Was it one light year away?"

Because the radar detection range of the Starship is said to be within one light year, not even a cosmic dust can escape its detection!

That is to say, unless the Zerg spaceship that Xia Chujian encountered was one light year away, it would definitely be discovered by the radar detection system of the Starship.

That is also the air defense system they rely on now.

Xia Chujian said calmly: "Unfortunately, it is not even one light year away."

"I flew into space with a mecha, and I don't have a Starship. How can I fly so far?"

"When I encountered the Starship, it was less than 10,000 kilometers away from us."

In the universe, a distance of 10,000 kilometers is no different from being at home.

And a distance of one light year is 9.46 trillion kilometers.

Therefore, all interstellar travel in the Beichen Galaxy is through wormholes. Otherwise, even if the starships can reach the speed of light or sub-light, it will take one or two years to travel.

Who can bear it?

Lao Mo and Feng Er looked very ugly for a while.

Xia Chujian said: "Is it possible that the Starry Sky Mothership has actually detected it?"

Lao Mo and Feng Er said in unison: "Impossible."

This is the second update. There will be a new update after 5:00 p.m.
