"My lord, the other starship requests communication."

Windsor Bello stood up from the driver's seat, nodded and said, "Connected."

Moments later, a screen was lowered above the control room. Some blurry images appeared on the screen at first, and then gradually became clearer. Allen saw a tall, mighty-looking old man appearing in the picture. He stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Who is in charge of your ship?"

"It's me." Windsor Bellow stood in front of the screen and said proudly.

The old man made a sign and said, "It turned out to be Marshal Windsor Bello."

Marshal Greedy Wolf also seemed to recognize the old man on the screen, and said, "Why is it you, Marquis Metalon."

Just as the old man was about to answer, suddenly a palm stretched out from behind and pushed a dignified marquis away. Then the figure on the screen flickered, and a beautiful and graceful face occupied the screen. The blond hair flowing like sunshine, and the eyes like green agate immediately evoked Alan's memories. The girl on the screen shouted: "Teacher, you are too wordy! Marshal Windsor Bello, is there anyone named Allen on your starship!"

Windsor Bello looked at Allen with a strange expression. On the screen behind, Metalon was seriously protesting: "Your Highness, you should pay attention to etiquette."

"This is not the imperial court, who am I to show it to?"

"The one over there is Marshal Windsor Bello!"

The girl was still talking, but Allen had already unbuckled his seat belt, walked to the screen and yelled in disbelief: "Lucy, is that you?"

There was a sudden silence on the screen, and Marquis Metalon was the first to say loudly: "How can you call His Highness by his first name!"

"Teacher, you blocked me." The girl pulled the old man away, clapped her hands and said happily: "Ailun, you are indeed here."

Windsor Bello pulled his military cap and said with a headache, "Who will tell me what's going on?"

The Marquis of Metalon coughed dryly, and said, "It's like this. Your Highness has an agreement with the young man on the Marshal's ship. When the deadline came, His Highness insisted on going to Earth to meet the appointment despite the royal family's objection. But when we arrived, we learned that The boy had already left, so he chased after him. This is not a place to talk, I wonder where your ship is going to land?"

"It sounds interesting, come with us." Windsor Bello said.

The communication was temporarily shut down, and at the end of the communication, Lucy could still be heard protesting loudly that there was no objection from the royal family at all, it was purely an old man's own wish and so on. Windsor Bello looked at Allen and said, "I underestimated you, you actually know that Highness."

"Are you talking about Lucy? We met in the death ring." Allen briefly talked about himself and Lucy.

After hearing this, Windsor Bello looked at Allen with a wider smile. Climbing up with members of the royal family of Ida Huaxing, my student has a bright future. The more he looked at Allen, the more Windsor Bello felt that he was looking at a cash cow.

"Ready to enter the atmosphere, please fasten your seat belts."

After the red wolf starship's broadcast was repeated three times, the starship began to enter the atmosphere of Pluto. The atmosphere of the Pluto star is full of a large number of metal particles, which makes the friction between the airflow and the starship more intense. The orange-yellow air waves generated by the friction stretched to both sides, supporting the starship like a pair of flame wings and flying towards the interior of the planet.

violently

The shaking made Allen and the others pale, and after passing through the atmosphere, they let out a sigh of relief. After the starship stabilized, the baffles of the portholes on both sides were opened, and Allen no longer needed to observe the outside environment through the projection window, but could see the scene of the Pluto star more intuitively. Looking down from the height of the starship, fires flickered everywhere on Netherworld Star, and groups of scorching air continued to erupt high into the sky. Even inside the ship, it felt hot.

"The air of Nether Star is not fresh, but it needs to be able to breathe. It is composed of 60% land and 40% ocean. The life in Jotun star domain are all lunatics. They not only expand and invade the outside world, They don’t care much about their home planet. Netherworld Star is an example. It’s not been a day or two since the blade demons have gone crazy/extracted energy from the planet. Now this planet is on the verge of death. According to our calculations, even The blade devil stopped squeezing the parent star, and this planet will definitely not survive 500 years. Don't think that this time is very long, from the perspective of the universe, 500 years is just a blink of a finger." Windsor Bello said to Allen The first brother of Star Trek introduced the situation of Pluto.

During this dying period, the planet also launched a crazy revenge on the creatures on it. Now the temperature of the planet's core in Pluto is increasing year by year, and the entire planet is now very hot. The vast majority of the earth's surface is covered with volcanoes, lava, deserts and red land, with almost no green plants. The ocean has also become a hell. The constant temperature of the sea water is often above 40 degrees. This has caused most of the marine life in the underworld to become extinct. The only ones that can survive today are terrifying and dangerous species that have mutated.

The diurnal temperature difference of Pluto is extremely high, the temperature reaches about 45 degrees during the day, and drops to around minus 20 degrees at night, which makes it extremely difficult to survive on the planet. Most of the creatures on the surface have also become extinct, and the only ones that survive today are some mutated and dangerous species, except for the Blade Demon. In such an environment, the blade demons who dominate this planet are becoming more and more crazy, which is one of the reasons why the Federation sent troops to try to wipe them out.

If it is not suppressed, the blade demon whose home star is on the verge of collapse may take the risk and launch a mad attack on other star fields. The first to bear the brunt should be the Earth Federation, whose military strength and number of powerful people are far inferior to Idahua Star, which the federal government does not like to see. Therefore, it may be more appropriate to say that the army fighting on Pluto is not so much offensive as containment.

In any case, the federal army has already occupied an area on Pluto, and has established supporting strategic facilities such as logistics bases, supply lines, and front-line theaters.

"The social structure of the Blade Demon is a relatively loose tribal civilization. Large and small tribes are scattered on this dying planet. Most of the chiefs of the tribe have the strength of around 20 to 25, and the mobility of the Blade Demon tribe is very high. Only medium-sized tribes with more than a thousand people have the habit of settling down." Adjutant Mirren added: "Among the Blade Demons, there is only one king. The king is jointly elected by the chiefs of the ten strongest tribes. However, because of their loose structure, the king's order may not be applicable to all tribes."

Windsor Bello said: "It should be noted that the king controls the ten strongest tribes, and they are the main force of the Blade Demon. However, the logistics base you are going to will not overlap with the enemy's main force. No need to worry. But if you think everything will be fine this way, then I just

It's too early to be happy. Even if it wasn't the top ten tribes, the rest of the tribes would not be too aggressive. What they lacked was the number of troops and strong men. "

While speaking, the starship suddenly trembled lightly, but an explosion of flames appeared below. The starship circled, and through the porthole, Allen could see that they were passing through a plain. Two armies were fighting on the plain, and more than a dozen soldiers crossed and collided all over the mountains and plains. Rows of faint blue electric fire swept out a beautiful arc, falling into the enemy formation and exploding fireballs, while the missiles whizzing past in mid-air from time to time dragged their flame tails and severely hit the enemy's targets.

The electric fire and guided missiles came from the human army, and the sword demon army also started to fight back after being hit. Flaming boulders bombed into the air one after another, and then swooped down like lava bombs. They easily smashed chariots or airships, and even created a large sea of flames in the human army. As the flames rose, a monster covered in scales, with thin wings between its limbs and sides, flew at low altitude like a glider. They passed through the fire curtain and appeared on top of the human army. At this time, the blade demons would jump off the monsters one by one. They jumped into the human position and created a large blood spray in an instant.

With the departure of the Red Wolf starship, the battlefield where blood and fire were intertwined quickly receded. Windsor Bello said: "That's the spread of death. They are the Marine Division under Admiral Lu Sen, and they are also the main force fighting on the Nether Star. In addition, another admiral/general, Mei Lin, is fighting on the Dark Star. And her Rose Queen. I believe that it won't take long before the Rose Queen will merge with the Death Spread, and it will be time to launch a general attack on the Abyss of the Furnace where the King of Sword Demons is."

The red wolf starship continued to fly forward, and under the porthole, rolling mountains, continuous land, sunken basins, complex stone forests, and erupting volcanoes were all left behind the starship. In the end, the starship arrived at the destination of the trip, the logistics base near the Abyss of Fury.

Parked on the simple apron in the logistics base, under the leadership of Windsor Bello, Alan and the others got off the lifting deck of the Red Wolf Starship one after another. Jump off the deck and face a gust of wind. The strong wind was so hot that it made Allen feel like his hair was curling up. The choking smoky smell in the wind made him cough lightly. After standing for a few seconds, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. As Windsor Bello said, the temperature on Netherworld is extremely high.

But looking at Windsor Bello and Mirren, there is no difference between the two of them as usual, and sweat is not dripping on their faces. Even in the strong wind, Windsor Bello's curly purple hair didn't even float half of it, as if there was an invisible barrier between her and this planet.

On the other side, Ida Huaxing's royal airship also landed on the apron. As soon as the airship landed on the deck, a golden sun-like light had already floated down from the cabin. Lucy, who had been reunited for a long time, was still full of vitality, and her long golden hair brought Ellen full of sunshine just like two years ago. With a hearty laugh, she ran towards the Red Wolf starship.

Allen greeted him with a smile, and just opened his arms, and Lucy had already hugged him firmly. The two fell to the ground immediately.

"You've grown taller." Lucy showed a smile as bright as the sun.

Allen nodded and said, "You have also become heavier."

"It's too rude to say such a thing to a lady!"

The two looked at each other for a moment and laughed at the same time.
