Imperfections

Chapter 131: long time no see

Views:

Turan seemed to have damaged the language area in her brain on the door panel, and normal people didn't understand what she was calling. When several technicians in the engineering department saw her pulling on the collar of the chief executive, they thought that these two were not shy. Yangdi has been in a cold war for more than ten years, and finally it is about to fight. Since "only scolding the street, not fighting" has always been the highest purpose of the engineering department, the technical house collectively stepped back three feet, ready to go out and call the security.

But Lu Bixing understood.

Because for some people, some wounds have become untouchable scales over time, and even a word, a punctuation mark, a breeze can sting there. His pupils contracted slightly, and his jaw tensed obviously, but only for a moment.

Immediately, Lu Bixing gently squeezed Turan's wrist, pulled her disrespectful hand away, and asked without changing his expression: "You mean, the guards of the accompanying expedition team caught the silver ten near the Heart of Rose. Wei's communication key?"

Turan opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Lu Bixing interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

As soon as he twisted his wrist, an interstellar route map of the first galaxy was displayed on his personal terminal, hanging down from the roof of the headquarters and covering the ground.

Lu Bixing got up and walked to the waterway map in a leisurely manner: "We now make a rough judgment based on the limited information. I remember that in the past, the Central Army and the alliance were separated from each other. , It seems that things have changed a little now. The alliance is likely to unite the central army of the major galaxies again, and the anti-Ukrainian will be silent, let it go dormant first, and the glorious group is ready to surrender."

"The Glory Corps controls the first galaxy, and the first galaxy is the treasure of the new ephemeris civilization. It is impossible for the two sides to bombard the 8th galaxy with missiles at will. They have been grinding each other for more than ten years. In a peaceful and prosperous age, someone came out to make trouble - from the means of chip control, it seems that it was the uneasy 'Freedom Corps' in the early years. General Turan said that the communication key of the Silver Ten Guardians was captured near the Heart of Rose. They went with this wave of pirates. From this point of view, the armed forces outside are probably all gathered together, just for us to catch up.”

Turan couldn't help but say: "No, the chief, the ten silver guards communicate with each other, and the communication keys summoned by the unified command use different encryption systems. This is the rule."

"In the history of the alliance, the ten silver guards have a contractual relationship with the alliance most of the time and do not obey the command. It is said that at such times, you have another decision-making mechanism yourself. I did not expect that after so many years, the summoning set is still using the old one. The encryption method is very nostalgic, but it is not very secure." Lu Bixing's eyes looked straight into Turan's eyes, "Why, General Turan, what else do you want to say?"

+ + +

Turan looked into his eyes and suddenly couldn't say anything. She suspected that apart from a heartless artificial intelligence like Zhan Lu, no one would dare to mention "Lin Jingheng may still be alive" under these eyes. talk.

Lu Bixing picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of the coffee he brewed in the morning. The coffee was still warm, and a thick white steam emerged from the mouth of the cup, which drowned out all the emotions in his eyes. He casually took his own words: "It is said that When the area of human activity expands, if you are not careful, the large animals in the surrounding environment will easily become extinct. Instead, they are the humble cockroaches and mice that can easily integrate into any human society. Sure enough, whether it is 'empire' or 'ism', the two The big pirate organizations have fallen one after another, but these low-level people who started from drug trafficking have become a major concern for the alliance. We were lucky to close the eighth galaxy in time. Zhan Lu - From the engineering department, the information department and the combat readiness planning department, I transferred some people. A comprehensive intelligence analysis team is required."

"Yes!"

"What kind of energy disturbance can the wormhole stabilizer used by the expedition withstand? How much more stable is the wormhole compared to no stabilizer? Give me an estimate asap."

"General Manager, the relevant data is already under analysis."

"Zhan Lu, help me check the alliance's previous research level on natural wormhole areas, and know ourselves and others."

"Okay, Principal Lu."

"and also"

Turan breathed out silently, and was a little dazed there. Listening to him orderly moving a group of people around, he felt the difference between the president Lu Bixing and the old president Edward.

President Edward looked at the alliance, whether it was with longing or resentment, he always looked up. In his heart, he always felt that the Eighth Galaxy was part of the alliance, and regarded the center of the alliance as an unattainable "orthodox", he agreed "Independence", but he probably never thought to death that he would one day compete with the Alliance.

And Lu Bixing, after eleven "independence years", has experienced endless wars and strife, and rebuilt the regime of the Eighth Galaxy with blood and fire. At this time, when he looked at the alliance, he looked at it indifferently. In his eyes There, whether it was the Alliance, the Central Army of Lu Xin's old department, or the three major pirate forces, there was nothing to fear, and nothing invincible. He will carefully assess the opponent's strength, and then decide whether to step forward or step on the defensive.

"General Turan," Lu Bixing arranged a circle of tasks and called her, "Follow me."

Turan came back and quickly followed.

Lu Bixing took her to the corridor. The command post of the Galaxy City base was bright and clean. Through the window of the tall building, the entire Galaxy City base could be seen. The heavy armor—produced in the eight galaxy’s own arms factory—is described as chilling, quietly pointing in a certain direction in the sky, just like the military fortress in the center of the alliance back then.

A few years of civil war almost destroyed the Eighth Galaxy, and in a sense, it also honed them. At this time, in the Eighth Galaxy Self-Defense Force, there are no rookies who have just learned to use armor, and everyone has experienced hundreds of battles. , like the last Gu King who survived in a sealed jar.

Lu Bixing asked Turan, "How likely is it that the Ten Silver Guards will be used by me?"

Turan didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Oh, nothing," Lu Bixing smiled, "I called you out to ask you to help me with something. I need your Self-Defense Forces to draw up a special strategic plan based on the characteristics of wormholes we have mastered, focusing on how to How to transport enough people out of the wormhole, and in case of emergency, you need to retreat from the wormhole."

Turan was taken aback: "You want to"

"I want to go there. The Eighth Galaxy has been isolated from other galaxies for eleven years of independence. I'm going to see where everyone has come." Lu Bixing paused, "Of course, I'm also very fond of the Pirates Free Legion. Interested, if possible, it is best to get some of their stuff to come back to study, not to learn from, at least to prevent."

"It's been more than ten years, and it's time for everyone to shine a light on each other," Lu Bixing said, and waved at Turan involuntarily, "Go and prepare."

No one formed a circle again, and held a meeting to criticize him as an unarmed person who should not be on the front line. Now he can go wherever he wants, and he is just an understatement "go and prepare" with everyone.

Turan gave him a deep look, but she couldn't see the slightest clue from Lu Bixing's face, and she didn't know whether he simply wanted to be a shit stirrer who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, or if he was thinking about chasing the ethereal Signal.

For a moment, Turan suddenly regretted, if she really let Lu Bixing leave the eighth galaxy and go to the transition point to live and die with that person, will there be another result

But regret is such a feeling of internal friction. Every villain has to learn to control this emotion. Turan lowered his head and quickly turned his attention to the huge workload. He responded and left quickly.

On the edge of the first galaxy, the forces of the Freedom Legion and the Alliance are constantly gathering, and the two sides have been silently confronting each other for several days.

The infrastructure on the tourist-dominated planet is insufficient, and the supplies are mainly supplied by the outside world. The daily life is not self-sufficient. The pirates have no massacres, but they "accidentally bombed" the nutrition needle storage warehouse as soon as they landed. Under such circumstances, the planet was immediately stretched, and then there was a large-scale shortage of food and drinking water, and sorrow was everywhere.

The pirates did not block the signal of the hostages, and allowed the desperate hostages to call out for help every day.

In the first galaxy, Votto, in the early morning, the parliament hall was full of people, silent, just like before the war.

The Alliance Central has reinstated Votto, and this is the tenth day of the planetary abduction.

But if you look closely, the parliamentary hall at this time is different from before the war. Before the war, the position of the center was reserved for the Eden Management Committee. The members of each galaxy were divided into distinct factions, with the Management Committee as the core, surrounded by a circle. Seated in their own territory, the elegant politicians are long-sleeved and good at dancing, and the Military Commission is in the back row at the very edge, like a group of silly big men who are out of tune with contemporary civilization. However, at this time, almost all the military uniforms of various military services were in the parliament hall, which was so neat that there was a sense of oppression.

Old Marshal Woolf was long overdue.

"Marshal," an old general with the rank of general broke the silence, "People from all over the first galaxy are organizing support. We just condemn and stalemate is not the answer. What should we do? You have to give a charter."

The commander-in-chief of the first galaxy said: "The Serbian star will revolve away from the danger zone of the Heart of the Rose in about a week. I am afraid that the pirates will make moves at that time."

His voice fell, the door of the parliament hall was pushed open, and Wang Ailun walked in quickly: "They have already made a move."

He said, with a flick of his wrist, a video news was thrown from his personal terminal in the middle of the parliamentary hall: "The interstellar pirates have just announced that there will be a one-week referendum on the kidnapped planet."

"Pirates hold a referendum? Isn't that a joke! What did they vote for?"

Wang Ailun did not answer, and the referendum issue has been played in the video-whether the old warlord Woolf committed crimes against humanity.

There was an uproar in the parliamentary hall, and everyone looked at Marshal Woolf, who was sitting on the rostrum.

Woolf gestured calmly, suppressing the sound.

"Either press the vote as they want, or die," Wang Ailun said in a deep voice. "You don't need to think about the result of the referendum. They are not only insulting the old marshals, but also mocking the cornerstone of the alliance, freedom and democracy. Fine, we must take strong action. After ninety-five hours, Serbia will leave the danger zone of the Heart of the Rose, and the strategic analysis department believes that the pirates will take the opportunity to fully occupy the planet, and we must take it before that. The alliance has not blocked communications. The original planetary garrison has been using secret codes to contact us. It is said that some residents on the planet are trying to break out in the direction of the Rose Heart, and some of them have successfully escaped from Serbia, indicating that the pirates also have scruples about the Rose Heart. , I dare not go deep into the restricted area, I suggest bypassing the Heart of the Rose and raiding from the rear."

In the eighth galaxy, Lu Bixing stayed up all night. He was going to personally take a team of elites from the Armed Forces and Engineering Department to explore the depths of the wormhole area. Turan and the Engineering Department made all preparations, but the danger was still there, so There is a lot of work at hand that needs to be handed over in categories.

Zhan Lu is very quiet and is used to his routine.

At dawn, Lu Bixing sent the last work email, drank the herbal tea, and took Zhan Lu directly to set off.

When the fleet approached the wormhole area, Lu Bixing opened a report on his personal terminal—the earliest routine work report returned by the expedition team, describing what they had seen and heard when they passed through the wormhole area. Among them, Mint mentioned a The model of the ecological capsule happened to be the one he picked up outside the β star in Beijing.

Whether Lin Jingheng entered by mistake or had a plan, it was really the eighth galaxy that came through the wormhole area.

The original people of the remote communication key more than ten years ago know that it is common sense to change the password regularly. Although the remote communication key is much more complicated than the ordinary password, it is not without the risk of being cracked. For years, it sounds counterintuitive.

So who is still using the old key

"Principal Lu," Zhan Lu suddenly said, "you seem a little uncomfortable, do you need a medical cabin?"

"No." Lu Bixing was called back by his voice, and suddenly found that there was a spark in a dangerous area in his heart, and quickly stepped forward to extinguish it.

For the first time, he repaired the Zhanlu system full of fantasies, and Zhanlu broke his fantasies himself.

The second time, he madly went through the wormhole to search for clues about that person, but the clues told him, let this heart die and stop daydreaming.

"There can't be a third time." Lu Bixing thought.

Falling to death three times in the same place would be too stupid to cheat a corpse.

He should accept the reality calmly, accept that that person, like Lao Lu and Chief Edward, has already left him, just a little further away.

Lu Bixing gathered his thoughts and changed the subject with Zhan Lu casually: "By the way - have you found someone who matches my mother in your database?"

This is a long story. When Lu Bixing found out that Lin Jingheng and Cyclops were hiding something from him, he tried to investigate, but there were no clues, and this was a private matter. Lu Bixing didn't have much time to focus on private matters, so it was found that there was no one. Take it, only occasionally when Zhan Lu's tube is too wide, use this to find something for him to do.

The intersection between Lin Jingheng and One-Eyed Eagle seems to be the only relationship with Lu Xin except for others. According to Zhan Lu, the two became enemies because General Lin came to the Eighth Galaxy to ask for Mrs. Lu's relics. too friendly.

One day, Lu Bixing had a whimsy in a half-awake state, thinking that Lu Xin's wife fled to the eighth galaxy time, and he was born in the same year. Will his mother, who he never met, have anything to do with her

Mrs. Lu was a well-known scholar before her life, and the information was not difficult to find. Lu Bixing found a photo of his mother left by the one-eyed eagle and asked Zhan Lu to help with the investigation. As expected, he found nothing.

This reminded Lu Bixing of the long-standing question - the one-eyed eagle told him that his mother was a scholar who taught and educated people. Lu Bixing tried to check it when he was a child, but he didn't find out which school she was from, guessing that she might be from an alien galaxy. It just so happens that Zhanlu used to run the forbidden fruit system. Although it has been stopped, the data is still there, and anyone who has ever registered in the Garden of Eden can be found. In order to keep Zhan Lu from watching reptile movies, he found something for this aesthetically enigmatic artificial intelligence.

"No, I'm sorry, Principal Lu," Zhan Lu replied, "I have screened more than 2,000 suspected people based on this lady's appearance and identity, and compared to your brain genes, no one matches."

Lu Bixing was a little surprised: "Is there no such person? Could it be that Lao Lu made it up to fool me?"

Why would Cyclops fool him with such a thing

A safety reminder started to sound in the mecha, telling everyone that they had arrived at the wormhole area. Lu Bixing absently put on the oxygen mask of his spacesuit, buckled the safety cable, and thought, "I can't be born by him, right?"

"Zhan Lu, ignore her identity conditions, screen my genes and"

He didn't say a word, the unstable wormhole vortex arrived early, and swallowed the rest of Lu Bixing's words, Zhan Lu only had time to save half of his orders—

The size of the time in the wormhole, the outside world has passed quietly for ninety hours.

Deep in the heart of the rose, the head of the eighth galaxy opened his eyes and saw the first galaxy filled with gunpowder for the first time.

On the hostage star, the result of the "referendum" counted down for an hour, and the Serbian star was about to leave the edge of the Heart of the Rose. The Alliance issued the twelfth warning to the pirates and ignored them, so they showed the muzzle at the pirates.

On this day, at four o'clock in the morning, Votto time, the interstellar pirates fired their first shots and met the approaching Alliance Army on the outer channel of the hostage planet.

At the same time, the Alliance Central Army, stationed on the edge of the first galaxy, risked their lives and went deep into the Heart of the Rose, preparing to detour behind the pirates.

This performance of "The Oriole Is Behind" was seen by the eyes hidden deep in the heart of the rose.

Mint of the expedition team drove several "primary mechas" at the forefront. The weak energy response of the junior mechas could easily be overshadowed by the interference of the Rose Heart. The Alliance Central Army sneaking into the Rose Heart did not notice at all. Mint was photographed with a military recorder and passed to Lu Bixing in situ.

"How can I say that the Alliance Army is weaker than I thought." Lu Bixing's subordinate, a person from the engineering department pointed to various parameters of the mecha and said, "Although there are sufficient troops, the military mecha looks more like 11 years ago than it was 11 years ago. Not much improvement."

A person from the intelligence analysis team said: "The pirates may not have any advantages. The defense in the direction of the Rose Heart can't even defend against unarmed starships. I have long said that they will be ambushed, Commander."

"Shh," Lu Bixing whispered, "look carefully."

The expedition team quietly used its own technology to block the spatial instability caused by the turmoil in the wormhole area for the Alliance ambush, allowing the Alliance Central Army to pass through the legendary restricted area without any risk.

"This is God's blessing!" The unknowing Central Army launched a charge, cutting directly from the rear of the pirates like soldiers from the sky, "Long live the alliance, long live the declaration of freedom."

Nei Ying on the Serbian star responded immediately and tore a hole in the pirates' fragile rear line of defense. The countless hostages on the planet looked like prison birds out of cages, and starships large and small scrambled to escape.

"Mr. Lu, a large number of fleeing civilian starships are coming near the heart of the rose. The wormhole area is very active today."

"Don't embarrass the unarmed people, let them pass," Lu Bixing ordered, then he paused and whispered, "As long as they are lucky."

Is it just a coincidence that the referendum organized by pirates among the hostages just ended at this point? Just to make fun of the league

On the abandoned asteroid, the alliance forces attacked on both sides tightly wrapped the interstellar pirates in the middle, and the unarmed starship narrowly turned a huge arc, trying to escape from the battlefield. The garrison at the edge of the first galaxy of the alliance has already Get ready to meet them.

At this moment, the sudden change occurred—

"Mr. Lu, look!"

The Serbian star had just left the Heart of the Rose. It happened to pass through a space that had been abandoned for many years in the Alliance. The space suddenly sent out a violent energy reaction. There was a pirate fleet with guns and ammunition in ambush. He opened his bloody mouth and bit the unarmed people, throwing the Union army into chaos.

On the Serbian star, the countdown to the referendum ended, and the "Wolf guilty" side won 95% of the votes. On the pirates' mechas, the words "Wolf guilty" were printed in bright red on the fuselage of each mecha. It exploded like a carnival.

"Mr. Lu!"

"It's a bit uncomfortable," Lu Bixing got up and looked around, "How about it, everyone, since we've caught up, why don't we try the knife today?"

"Remove the space shield—"

"The expedition dodges."

"Calibrate the particle cannon—"

Lu Bixing nodded to Zhan Lu.

However, just when the particle cannon of the Eighth Galaxy Self-Defense Force had not yet been fired, a tattered mecha team suddenly broke in from outside the first galaxy, like a group of ragged peerless masters, entangled in the The alliance army and the pirate army pierced through together.

Lu Bixing frowned: "Wait."

At this time, Baiyin Jiujiu in the Eighth Galaxy Self-Defense Force suddenly said: "Mr. Lu, it's Baiyin Shiwei!"

Lin Jingshu, who was remotely controlling the battlefield, clenched her fists tightly and pinched her fingernails into her palms: "You have to—"

Woolf of Votto jumped up: "What did you say?"

Lu Bixing's chest roared for unknown reasons: "Zhan Lu, can you try with them"

His voice fell, and Zhan Lu had already connected to the communication channel of the Silver Ten Guardians - the most arrogant armed force in the universe, and the communication channel was not encrypted.

Lu Bixing heard a voice that appeared in his dreams countless times, and said in the continuous artillery fire: "Everyone, it's been a long time, and sixteen years have passed, but I haven't grown much."
