Xu Le, who was unaware of all this, released his hands that were covering his ears. After a moment of silence, he said seriously to the head in front of him, "You are a very good emotional poet. I will give you face and agree to let her stay, but I have a condition. In the future, you are not allowed to recite poems without permission, especially the kind that keeps repeating over and over again."
Philip laughed and said, "Wishful thinking."
Xu Le's thick eyebrows were slightly messy. He said in a panic, "You don't agree?"
The slender mechanical arm shook up and down violently, as if Philip was in a rage. His voice was extremely angry. "Get it straight. It's not you giving me face, it's me giving you face and pretending to persuade you with a few words. You actually don't allow me to recite poems? This is my ship. I can let whoever I want on board. "
Xu Le thought about it and felt that this was indeed the truth. He lowered his stubborn head in frustration. Zhong Huoyan looked at him and laughed. She patted him on the back and then handed him a sweet coconut bread to express her most sincere comfort.
Half an hour later.
"Such a cute little thing, and it's not dangerous. Why can't you let her stay? You actually want me to spend so much effort to edit the scene and search for ancient poems to persuade you. I really don't know what's in that stone head of yours. Could it be that it's filled with the same cold electronic components as mine?
Since the dark dream in the hospital, Philip had finally won the most complete and most satisfying victory in his complicated quarrel with Xu Le. The slender mechanical arm was raised high, like a noble head proudly raised. His voice was particularly frivolous. However, when he saw the figure of the little girl at the control panel, he suddenly became nervous and frightened.
"My little aunt, you can't just dismantle this! If you break it, even your brother can't fix it! We'll fall into the sea and feed the turtles! "
…
…
It was already winter in the North, and the wind and snow were howling in Linhai. However, Heat Wave Island, which was close to the equator, was still blazing hot. Whether it was the palm trees on the beach or the charming girls in swimsuits under the shade of the trees, they all exuded a sense of warmth.
On a ring-shaped reef that extended into the depths of the sea, there were countless anglers and curious womenfolk. The anglers were attracted by the famous turtles swimming in the current, and the womenfolk were obviously more willing to show off their various flower dresses to compete with the beauty of the corals under the shallow sea.
A light breeze blew over the calm sea in the weather forecast. The crowd did not take it seriously and only felt that it was very refreshing. However, the sea breeze suddenly became extremely violent, and the fishing poles trembled slightly.
This situation was very unfavorable for the sea turtles to take the bait. The anglers suddenly became very unhappy and cursed the inexplicable wind. Suddenly, someone pointed to the sky and asked in confusion, "What's that?"
The people on the circular reef raised their heads in shock and looked at the white line in the blue sky. Before they could make any guesses, the white line had already arrived in front of them and then whizzed past them without them seeing any details.
The sea began to shake rapidly and anxiously. The strong wind blew over, and the anglers' hats were blown up and fell into the waves in the distance. The women's long or short dresses were blown up by the wind, revealing their charming or thick naked legs, which caused a lot of screams.
After the white line passed Heat Wave Island and entered the uninhabited sea area, it lowered its altitude but did not slow down. It was speeding ten meters above the sea level at a terrifying speed. In the violent air turbulence, a tattered black spaceship could be vaguely seen. The sea below was stirred up fierce waves, like a deep white mark, tearing apart the blue sky and moving towards the far end.
…
…
Capital Special District, Federation Emergency Command Center Hall.
"The target's speed has exceeded the human atmospheric speed record by three times. Everyone, look at the air turbulence caused by the front end of the spaceship. Flying close to the sea level at such a terrifying speed, the slightest mistake in the operation will cause friction with the sea and directly crash. Even the best pilot in the Federation can't do such an incredible operation."
A major general of the Federation looked at the people around the long table with a serious expression and said, "Since the target was discovered, the Federal Central Computer has been monitoring the whole process. However, the target's speed is too terrifying. The existing tracking missiles can't catch up with it at all. The main cannons of the battleships outside the atmosphere can't even lock on to it. Naturally, it can't be destroyed."
The emergency command center hall was deep underground and could withstand the attack of the most powerful main cannons of the battleships. At this time, all the people sitting around the long table were the top figures of the Federation government, including many generals in the military. Everyone's expression was very serious. They stared at the image on the huge light screen, not knowing how to suppress the shock in their hearts.
The image was provided by the Bureau of Proclamation. The Federal Central Computer had to use more than 30 high-orbit military satellites outside the atmosphere to be able to clearly capture the target. The line breaking through the wind and waves on the blue sea was so straight and slow. However, when they remembered that this was a panoramic map of planet S1, they could calculate how terrifying this speed that could be seen with the naked eye was.
"Now there is a key question. Where did this spaceship come from? Why did it save Xu Le? Is this a spaceship of the Empire? "
The National Security Advisor said with a pale face, "If this is a spaceship of the Empire coming to pick up their prince, and they can still fly on the surface of planet S1 in such a showy and humiliating manner, I think there is no need to continue this war. We should just surrender."
"This is not a spaceship of the Empire."
After Lee Jae-do said this, he did not give any further explanation.
Because of this strange spaceship, the Federation's security level was raised to level two, which was equivalent to the Empire's troops invading the core region. However, several hours later, the entire Federation could only watch as the spaceship ran wildly along the sea, helpless. The government had already fallen into extreme chaos, and the Federal military was almost crazy from the unprecedented humiliation.
The major general wiped away the sweat on his face and continued in a hoarse voice, "According to the analysis results from the air particle detector, the target spaceship uses a crystal engine, and the energy conversion rate is quite high. Therefore, the troops have already given up on the battle plan of waiting for the enemy to run out of energy."
"After the central computer's scan, it has been confirmed that the actual space of the target spaceship is much smaller than its external shape. However, even if only one percent of the space of the target spaceship is used to store crystal ores, then it can continue to travel at this speed for two months in the atmosphere. If the target spaceship leaves the atmosphere, then this time will be extended to a year."
An official from the Bureau of Proclamation added, and then looked at the Federation generals across the long table and said in a deep voice, "In the Ivy Garden, the Bureau of Proclamation has already monitored the acceleration of the target spaceship. If the military had been able to capture the fighter at that time, they could have destroyed it instead of waiting until now. The target spaceship has already accelerated."
The Federation generals' epaulettes flashed with golden stars, but their expressions were abnormally dark. They did not show any angry resistance to the Bureau of Proclamation's accusation. Although they knew that this was a problem caused by the Federation's bureaucratic and slow system, as soldiers, they could only watch as that broken spaceship showed off in their own country. Then, other than silence, their only response was to destroy the spaceship.
"The only good news now is that, according to calculations, at the target spaceship's terrifying speed, the current weapon systems are unable to effectively attack. This also means that the Federation's safety is not a problem for the time being. Speed is a problem for both sides."
The Federation major general forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and continued in a deep voice.
The Federation investigation director frowned in confusion and asked, "I don't really understand why we can't attack when the speed is fast. Even so, the target spaceship can be attacked as long as it decelerates, and then it can accelerate and leave. Isn't that fine?"
The Federation major general explained in a deep voice, "The target spaceship's engine can support its acceleration or deceleration, but to decelerate at such a terrifying speed in such a short period of time, even Xu Le's body won't be able to withstand such a heavy load. He will die immediately."
He looked at the important figures around the long table and said in a deep voice, "If the target spaceship attempts to decelerate and attack, I guarantee to the Federation on behalf of the military that we will completely destroy the target before it completes its deceleration adjustment and attacks!"
The heavy and oppressive atmosphere in the hall was slightly relieved by these words. The sound of chair legs rubbing against the floor and the sound of tea being sipped rang out after a long period of silence. At this moment, a deep, powerful, yet somewhat tired voice suddenly came from the end of the long table.
"If that spaceship doesn't decelerate and attacks instead, how will the military respond?"
Everyone looked at the end of the long table, not understanding the meaning of these words. They thought to themselves, since the military and the Bureau of Proclamation have already determined that the target spaceship won't be able to attack at this speed, why are they still worried?
"If it doesn't decelerate, we won't be able to destroy it, and it won't be able to activate its weapon system to attack the Federation. But if it doesn't use its weapon system to attack, and instead just crashes over like a rock toward Parliament Hill or the President's residence, then what should we do?"
President Pabre, who had been silent for a long time at the end of the long table, looked at everyone and said calmly, "I know the personality of the man in the spaceship very well. I believe he will dare to do this."
The atmosphere in the hall that had just relaxed suddenly became tense again following the President's calm words, even more so than before. All the officials and generals present knew very well what Xu Le had done in the target spaceship.
When that person was still a nameless young second lieutenant, he dared to face the pressure of the Iron Calculator Family and the Federal Academy of Science, chopping down Hushan Road and the research institute with one ax.
He dared to ignore the pressure of the madam behind Mochou's back mountain, running to planet S2 and directly killing Senator Macklin, who was once deeply loved and respected by all the Federation citizens.
He dared to sit in a spaceship alone and travel through the space channel to hunt down a fleet of the Empire.
He dared to start a war with the entire Federation for the dead Tiger Zhong and those innocent people.
There was nothing in the universe that he didn't dare to do, and this naturally included controlling that broken spaceship to perish together with the President's residence or Parliament Hill.
This didn't make sense, but it was the hard truth.
Amidst the dead silence, President Pabre stood up and said indifferently, "He will contact us. Just wait."
