The light outside the porthole suddenly lit up. With space as the background, a huge fireball hung in the upper left corner. The core of the fireball was dark red, and the closer it was to the edge, the lighter the color. Flames continued to spread out at the edges, and the crimson corona gently stretched out like ribbons. The sun benefited several nearby planets, and on a khaki-colored planet, a giant starship that was as magnificent as a mountain was hovering in space.
That was a cruiser.
Allen looked out of the porthole and saw that the huge sun behind him was painted with a layer of crimson luster, causing this starship, which was mainly dark in color, to glow with a different bright color. It looked like two connected mountain peaks. The two peaks were small in front and large in back, and connected by a bridge in the middle. The surface of the hull was covered with a series of devices such as cannon matrices, communication arrays, shield motors, and so on. The densely packed signal lights were like fluorescent stars that were constantly flashing.
As a Federation cruiser, it could carry more than ten thousand people. It was self-sufficient and had the excellent ability to fight continuously. On it, there was a freshwater conversion unit that produced nearly a hundred tons of water every day, enough to support the water needs of all the people on the ship. Since it was a large starship for space warfare, how could it not have a weapon platform? On it, it was loaded with intelligent heavy cannon matrices, turbolaser wing cannons, multi-purpose missile launching platforms, positron main cannons, and so on, providing the necessary firepower support.
In addition, the cruiser was also equipped with a deflection shield that ordinary starships did not have. Its function was to reflect the enemy ship\'s attacks. Coupled with the magic energy shield that protected the hull of the ship, the cruiser\'s defensive ability was far superior to that of ordinary starships.
At this moment, the Dawn handed over its driving authority. The artificial brain connected to the control system and remotely controlled the Dawn to the designated docking port. As the Dawn continued to move closer to the cruiser, Allen saw that there were still a number of high frigates moored nearby. They were distributed around the cruiser, forming a three-dimensional defense network.
A moment later, the Dawn lowered its altitude and slid towards the docking port. The cruiser blocked the sun like a mountain, and the Dawn slid into one of the docking cabins like a bird. After the starship entered, an armor plate gradually lowered, isolating the two worlds inside and outside. The starship slowly descended, and blue lights could be seen flashing on both sides of the runway. When Dawn landed on the ground, there was a small accident. The damaged left side of the body could not be lowered smoothly, causing the starship to slide sideways on the runway.
Fortunately, the speed was not fast. In the end, the starship, which was constantly spewing sparks, finally stopped. A team of people in the berthing cabin immediately ran up and sprayed the starship with foam sprayers to cool down the body and engine to prevent an explosion.
A moment later, the automatic door of the cabin opened. After the deck connected to the ground was lowered, Allen and all the people on the ship filed out. A young woman in a Federation uniform stepped forward and saluted, "I'm Second Lieutenant Elena. Welcome, Mr. Allen."
Allen nodded and looked back at the Dawn. "We were attacked on the way and killed two Catus starships and a Grai Giant. However, our starship is also severely damaged. I wonder if Second Lieutenant can get someone to help repair it. Of course, I'll pay for everything. "
The second lieutenant named Elena opened her big round eyes wide and said, "Heavens, you actually killed a Grai Giant. Those big fellows have a natural advantage in space. I wonder how Mr. Allen did it? "
"Nothing much. It's just a space war." Allen said casually.
Elena's eyes were filled with respect. Not everyone dared to carry out a space war. Not to mention one's own strength, just fighting in outer space was a test of one's willpower. After all, space was different from the interior of a planet. In such an environment, one would be affected by many factors, and one could only use 70% of one's strength at most. To dare to enter the space war, regardless of one's own strength, just this courage was enough to make this young female second lieutenant admire from the bottom of her heart.
After a long while, she came back to her senses. A faint blush appeared on her face as she said, "Leave the repair of the starship to me. I promise that when you need it, it will be as good as ever. As for the cost, Mr. Allen doesn't have to worry about it. This time, the Federation government will undertake all the logistical work, including the repair of the starship, so as to ensure that everyone can fight on the front lines without worry. "
"That's great. Thank you very much, Second Lieutenant Elena."
The second lieutenant said softly, "You can call me by my name."
Then he stood up straight, took out a tablet and handed it to Allen. "Next, teams like Mr. Allen who choose to hunt freely will gather on it. Mr. Allen, please read it carefully. Now, I will take you to your assigned rooms to rest. In two hours, General Luson will convey the mission to you. "
"General Luson?" Allen said in surprise, "Isn't he on Nether Domain Star?"
Elena pursed her lips and chuckled, "Looks like Mr. Allen doesn't care much about the Federation." Don't you know that the main force of the Federation this time is the Golden Lion's three combat divisions, as well as the spread of death? Marshal Capullo will arrive in the Rudson Domain later. As for General Luson, he arrived three days ago with the spread of death. "
Allen felt a headache when he thought of that domineering and tyrannical general. Of course, he was no longer a soldier who could not control his own fate as he was on Nether Domain Star. With the Calamity Path to Survival and Awakening the Death Hymn, although he was still no match for the Federation General. However, even if he couldn't beat them, it wasn't impossible to escape. If he had this kind of strength when he was on Nether Domain Star, Russen probably wouldn't be able to do whatever he wanted to him.
Regaining his senses, Allen nodded and said, "Please lead the way. I think everyone is tired and needs to rest."
The rooms arranged by the Federation for the participants were naturally prepared for the main combatants of the team. As for the pilots and other staff on the starship, there were other arrangements. They were led away by other soldiers, while Elena took Allen and the others to the living quarters of the ship. They were arranged to stay in a suite with four rooms, a living room, a dining room, and a bathroom.
After reminding Allen to attend the battle meeting chaired by General Lussen in two hours, Elena smiled and said goodbye. The only four rooms were quickly divided up. Lucy naturally had one room to herself, and Reina also occupied one. One of the remaining two was taken by Allen, while Regis and Belmore shared a room.
Allen walked into his room. The room was not big, only ten square meters long and wide. This narrow space reminded him of the shacks he had lived in on the surface in the past. However, the beds, chairs, and tables in the room were very clean, and there was even a pot of green potted plants. Although it was a very ordinary cactus, it was a luxurious visual enjoyment to be able to see a little green in space.
He put down his things and lay down on the bed, allowing himself to enter a state of complete relaxation. Naturally, he recalled the space battle with the Grai not long ago. This was Allen's first time fighting in outer space, and his experience was incomparably precious. Allen refused to let go of any details, and he constantly made deductions and adjustments in his mind. Unknowingly, two hours passed quickly.
The brain at the head of the bed gave a notification, but it received an electronic invitation to the battle conference. Allen got up, picked up his brain, and walked out of the room. Only the team leaders were invited to attend the battle meeting, and only then would each person convey the information to their own team members, so Allen left Lucy and the others in the room.
Following the radio prompts and the soldiers' guidance, Allen left the living area and arrived at the multi-functional electronic warfare room designated by the conference. On both sides of the combat room, there was a team of heavily armed Federation soldiers. A middle-aged colonel was checking everyone's identity before allowing them to pass. Allen was behind a dozen people when a commotion suddenly came from behind him. Then, he heard someone shout softly, "Look, it's General Russen."
It turned out that Russen had arrived.
The crowd naturally moved to the side, making way for Russen to pass through. Allen didn't want to meet Russen, so he turned his body sideways and used the body of a person beside him to block him. He raised his head and looked up.
Russen was still the same, his short gray hair sticking out like steel needles. Every line on Ning Su's face was as clear as if it had been carved by a knife. He pursed his lips tightly, and his one-eyed eyes were sharp. When people saw him, they couldn't help but lower their heads, not wanting to make eye contact with his gaze. The tight-fitting black military uniform with golden edges outlined the general's robust figure, and the military boots embedded with metal plates produced heavy drum-like footsteps.
For a moment, the corridor became incomparably silent, and only Russen's heavy footsteps became the only note.
After Russen, two ponytails of different colors, one gray and one black, jumped into everyone's line of sight. It was a young girl with a childish look on her cold and elegant face. A black river seemed to be hidden in her rarely seen black eyes. As she looked around, the ripples of the Nether River flowed, reflecting the different expressions of the outstanding people. These faces were quickly drowned under the Nether River, as if they couldn't be tolerated in the eyes of the young girl.
However, among those floating and sinking faces, there was a person's face that gradually became clear, so much so that the girl could not ignore him.
The girl suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong, Catherine?" Russen stopped and asked.
When Catherine stopped, Allen turned his head away and shrank back slightly, hoping that he wouldn't be targeted by the young major general who was named Death. Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Catherine strode over. A pair of long legs wrapped in military boots stepped on the sound of golden spears and war drums, and the imposing aura caused the surrounding people to subconsciously retreat. Allen sighed and stepped forward generously, showing a bright smile, "Long time no see, Major General Catherine."
