After releasing the remote projection, Han Xiao's vision returned to the room. Before he moved, there was movement on the panel, and an urgent mission from the empire popped up.
The content of the mission is based on the Black Star Legion camp, obeying the dispatch of the empire, and performing various war missions. The form is similar to the previous secret war missions. Han Xiao is no stranger.
"According to the reward standards of secret war missions, if you complete this kind of war mission with a high rating, you should have a high chance of getting rewards such as fame, political assets, and generating new dungeons... Oh, by the way, the contribution degree can also increase by one. Big wave."
Han Xiao touched his chin, but he was not very sure. After all, in the secret war, Amethyst and Krent were indistinguishable, and this time the Kunde people were just a slightly dangerous enemy to the empire. They don't have much suspense, and maybe the reward won't be more than Secret War.
However, he did not insist on it. His goal this time was mainly to try to activate various tasks from Nero.
Although he didn’t plan to take action himself, Han Xiao was not prepared to paddle completely. He didn’t mind providing virtual technical support when the empire needed it, and because he was familiar with the advantages of the map, Han Xiao didn’t plan to hide it.
The map he said is not the layout of the star map. The astronomical observation equipment of the cosmos grade civilization is not bad. As early as the first phase of exploration, the Scarlet Empire has already drawn the star map of the Glittering World, and all the details need to be explored. For example, the actual situation of each planet requires field exploration to determine.
And what Han Xiao is familiar with is the territory of the Kunde civilization, which is naturally not marked on the star map that has not been explored. That is to say, with its own intelligence support, the empire does not need to explore slowly. Instead, it can go straight to Huanglong and insert it into the hinterland of the Kunde people.
Of course, the premise is that the empire believes in its own intelligence. In terms of war, even if the status of Transcendent A Grade is high, it cannot interfere with the military action orders of the empire. For unverified intelligence, whether it is the empire or other advanced civilizations, they will basically take a wait-and-see attitude.
Han Xiao didn't have many concerns. He was already a sage, and he had Aesop, a well-known old man in the family. In addition, the empire would also use a lot of prophets, so he released information by himself. There is no problem.
However, in order to prevent some people with ulterior motives in the empire from framing him and secretly stalking the Kunde people, Han Xiao could not give the empire too detailed information. Although he can do whatever he wants with his current status, he can always avoid it by paying attention to it. extra trouble.
"The war at the star cluster level, this is my second time participating, but this time is different from the secret war..."
Han Xiao exhaled.
The secret war is a proxy war, and although it is quite large, there is no concern about the survival of the race. And this time, we will face a star cluster-level civilization that has used all its strength to defend its homeland, and the opponent will do everything possible.
Even if the Kunde people are a lame native star cluster-level technology tree, the intensity and scale of this war are still not comparable to any wars they have participated in before.
For the Kunde people, Han Xiao has no special hostility, but he has no good feelings. If he is the Kunde people, he is not willing to have the unowned resources that he had at his fingertips suddenly occupied by strange civilizations, and wait for the Scarlet Empire to finish exploring. The light and dust star cluster is equivalent to locking the Kunde people in this star cluster, and the upper limit will be at most a star cluster-level civilization in the future.
However, I am now standing in the position of the empire, and I am a vested interest. The empire's exploration of the new star field is to obtain new resources. Under the premise of having an overwhelming military advantage, it is impossible to stop. It can only be said that the two sides are essentially No reconcilable conflict of interest positions.
Since everyone is right, the only one who is wrong is the loser.
Han Xiao wrote a message, put the Kunde intelligence in it, sent it to Tarrokov, and then without waiting for a reply, wrote a war mobilization order to inform the entire army.
…
"Call us back to the war?"
In the Black Star Legion exploration ship, the team members in the cabin took out the communicator and glanced at the same time, with different expressions, some were excited, some were dignified, some were eager to try, and some were unhappy.
Nilo was a member of this exploration team at this time, and when he saw the internal mobilization order of the legion, he immediately became nervous.
The war came too suddenly, and he was not ready in his heart. All along, he has only participated in various discussions and never participated in a real war. It is impossible not to be nervous.
All kinds of chaotic thoughts came to mind, and Nilo couldn't help but think about it.
When facing the enemy, can I make a move
What does it feel like to kill an enemy
Will I be killed by the enemy
Will Mia also join the war, will she be in danger
While thinking about it, his shoulders suddenly sank. Nilo looked up and saw that it was the team leader, a sturdy former freelance mercenary.
"Don't worry kid, we will take care of you." The captain smiled heartily.
"Relax." The deputy captain who was reciting the spell model also raised his eyes and said casually: "I have participated in a secret war, and the battlefield is actually the same thing. Either you kill me or I kill you, especially this one. In an interstellar war, death is only a momentary thing, there is no pain, so there is nothing to be nervous about."
Hearing this, Nilo scratched his head, revealing a shy and reluctant smile.
He was assigned to this team as a maintenance engineer, and he was doing pretty well. The two captains took good care of him, and the other team members treated him well.
In this kind of grassroots combat team, the background is secondary, mainly depends on the ability of the individual. Nilo is not weak, and his mechanical level is very outstanding and trustworthy. Therefore, other team members are willing to take care of him. Nilo also likes this. A group of bold warriors.
Although he was nervous about the fact of participating in the war, Nilo had no plans to contact Han Xiao and did not want to ask for special treatment. If he did, the godfather might agree to keep him out of the battlefield, but he would definitely look down on him, Nilo After studying for so long, I don't want to disappoint my godfather.
Nilo stepped aside, took out the communicator, hesitated, and dialed Mia's number.
After ringing a few times, the other side connected, but they didn't speak, only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.
After waiting silently for a few seconds, Nilo couldn't help but take the initiative to speak, scratching his cheek, "This... Have you read the internal notice, I'm going to the battlefield."
"Oh."
"Uh... don't you worry about me?"
"What's there to worry about, I was also recruited." Mia snorted.
Nilo froze for a moment, and hesitated: "That... Are you nervous?"
"What's so nervous?" Mia said in a weird tone, "When I became a power user, didn't I know this day would come? I'm looking forward to it."
Nilo opened his mouth and had nothing to say, so he had to whisper: "Then you pay attention to safety, we are not in the same team, I can't protect you..."
"Who wants your protection?" Mia rolled her eyes, "You better take care of yourself, don't die."
After speaking, the communication was hung up on the other side.
Nilo put down the communicator and touched his nose helplessly.
He still misses Mia, who was soft, cute and shy when they first met. Since the awakening of the martial arts department, Mia's tendency to violence has become more and more serious. .
…
There is no airtight wall in the world, not to mention the Scarlet Empire did not hide it.
It didn't take long for the news of Glittering World to return to the Expeditionary Universe, and all the major star fields knew that the Scarlet Empire was mobilizing for war.
Most of the interstellar citizens have no special opinion. It is not uncommon to deal with the indigenous people. They wish that the empire will eliminate the resisting opponents as soon as possible, complete the exploration as soon as possible, and let them go to Glittering World to have fun.
There is also a group of anti-war factions that pity the indigenous civilization and call for peace instead of war, but no one cares about them. These remarks cannot affect the practices of advanced civilizations.
Most of the forces didn't care, but the major superstar cluster-level civilizations were happy about it.
They want the Kunde people to cause huge trouble to the empire. With the primitive nether energy, the Kunde people have the ability to kill the empire. The more the empire troops die, the better. If possible, it is best to let the empire's Transcendent A Grade appear Discounts, no matter who wins or loses, they are sure to make a profit anyway.
…
The exploration of the light and dust star cluster has been suspended, and the empire and major allies are gathering fleets, all of which are gathered near the lighthouse star.
In addition to the Expedition Army itself, the Scarlet Empire also recruited elites from the central Xinghai and sent them to Glittering World to participate in the war.
On the one hand, it is not to despise the enemy.
This time, because Han Xiao did not personally intervene, Melos, who had left behind his card friends and came from Broken Starlink, led the Black Star Legion fleet.
"This time the army is divided into multiple legions. I am the commander-in-chief of all legions, responsible for formulating strategies, and each legion has an exclusive commander who leads different allies and forces, and is responsible for your Black Star fleet. The commander-in-chief of the empire has also been decided."
In the commander's office of Beacon Star, Tarrokov opened a resume and showed it to Melos in front of him.
Taking a look, Melos felt familiar.
"Tenny Armellos?"
"Yes, it's him."
"His rank doesn't seem to be high, can he be competent..." Melos wondered.
"Hehe, don't worry, he is an officer that the empire is currently focusing on training, and has a very outstanding command and command ability." Tarrokov smiled slightly, "He arrived at Beacon Star not long ago, you can meet him. "
With that said, Tarrokov knocked on the table, the door was immediately pushed open, and an imposing officer walked in, followed by an adjutant who never left.
"Meet again, friends of the Black Star Legion." The imposing officer nodded.
"Oh! It turned out to be you." Melos immediately recalled the moment he saw this person.
This person is the elite of the empire who has been transformed by the Evolution Cube, the future marshal of the empire, Tenny Armenlos who had a brief py intersection with Han Xiao ** years ago, and the adjutant next to him is his confidant Kerbers.
Melos stood up, and the two shook hands before taking their seats again.
"I haven't seen Black Star for almost ten years. I'm very happy to hear that his status is getting higher and higher." Tenny said.
Melos nodded, and then said curiously: "You have been promoted in recent years. I remember when you came, it was only the rank of colonel."
"I made some merit, and that achievement is nothing compared to Black Star." Tenny shook his head, "This time I am taking the initiative to request to be the commander of the Empire of the Black Star Fleet, and try to help you reduce casualties as much as possible."
"Thank you very much." Melos was a little surprised. As an ally, the most fearful thing is to encounter an unreliable imperial commander.
"You don't need to thank me, you can take this as a reward." Tenny waved his hand, "Back then, Black Star gave me a set of mechanical floating defense arrays built by Transcendent A Grade, which helped me through several dangers, I You should thank him."
"So it is."
Melos suddenly realized that there was no love for no reason. It turned out that the eldest of his family was kind to others.
He couldn't help but be amazed at the profoundness of Han Xiao's py.
"When this battle is over, I will drop by the way to visit Black Star in the Gaolu star cluster, I hope he is free." Tenny nodded.
"Don't worry, the affairs of the legion are basically handled by our cadres. He is very busy all day long." Melos sold Han Xiao casually.
The two chatted for a while, until Tarrokov coughed deliberately, and the two left the commander's office together. As partners who are about to fight side by side, both of them want to communicate more feelings with each other.
There were people coming and going in the base, and halfway through, Tenny met an acquaintance who was also a high-level imperial officer recruited from other places. They greeted each other and stopped to chat.
Melos didn't pay much attention to it at first, but suddenly found that the tall and thin adjutant next to the emperor had been staring at him with meaningful eyes.
"Look at me... Cough, what do you think I do?" Melos couldn't help asking.
The adjutant smiled, pointed to Melos' legion uniform, and asked, "Are you from the Black Star Legion?"
"I'm Melos, the commander-in-chief of the Black Star Legion fleet, what do you call me?" Melos nodded.
"Hehe, call me Gothe."
"Where have we met? Why do you keep staring at me?" Melos wondered.
Gothe smiled slightly, "No, I just admired Black Star all the time. It was the first time I saw the cadres of Black Star Legion, and I was a little curious."
After saying that, he turned his head and did not intend to continue speaking.
Seeing this, Melos didn't talk to him either. He glanced at the man and was secretly surprised... This guy named Gothe obviously has no momentum, but for some reason, standing next to this man, Melos always has an inexplicable pressure in his heart.
At this time, Tenny also finished chatting with the acquaintance, and the other party walked away with his adjutant Gothe.
Melos watched the two disappear around the corner, and couldn't help but ask:
"Do you know that adjutant?"
Tenny shook his head, but he had been talking to the adjutant Kerbers who was by his side.
"You mean Gothe? I know him, what's wrong?"
"I chatted with him just now, and I'm a little curious."
Kerbers nodded and introduced: "This Gothe is not a graduate of the Imperial Military Academy. He has not been in the army for a long time, but he is a power user with extraordinary potential. He was spotted by the officer just now and jumped. As an adjutant, all abilities are outstanding, and I heard that he has also been on the list of the military's key training."
"This resume sounds ordinary..."
Melos felt strange and didn't know how the pressure just now came, but he was sure it wasn't an illusion.
But this kind of trivial matter that has nothing to do with himself is nothing to tangle, Melos continued to talk with Tenny, and quickly left Gothe behind.
…
The efficiency of the empire is quite high. It didn't take many days from the attack to the completion of the assembly of the army. Under the instruction of Tarrokov, the army officially launched and marched towards the depths of the light and dust star cluster.
Originally, the empire did not know the territorial location of the Kunde people. The original plan was to explore the road first, but not long ago, Black Star submitted an intelligence, marking the approximate location of the Kunde people in the light and dust star cluster, although there are no detailed coordinates. , but also saved a lot of energy for the empire to explore the way.
Although the accuracy of the intelligence has yet to be determined, the empire can also carry out more targeted detection work. Countless scout troops were released and moved towards the Kunde territory marked by the Black Star, and the various legions also moved from different directions. Start moving.
With an entire star cluster as the battlefield, mobility is the key, and the star gate is the blood vessel connecting the army.
Because of the primitive nether energy trap incident, the empire also defaulted that its opponents possessed stargate technology, so each legion paid attention to protecting their own stargate channels and preventing enemy raids.
However, the army has been marching forward for half a month without even a single encounter.
A few days later, this situation was broken, and the empire finally had its first firefight with the Kunde troops.
And the location of the firefight is the beacon star, which is troubled by disasters!
