I admit that I am a good person, but at the very least, I am not so good that I would send my soldiers to die for a "Free Kingdom" that I met by chance and knew nothing about. Helping Jayne repel the enemy ships in space was only something that I had no choice but to do. However, it would be a little overboard to send my own landing troops to the surface. The reason why I was so proactive in helping the other party conquer the occupied colonial planet was mainly because of the message that Pandora had just sent to me.
When she "shot down" the diamond-shaped flagship, Pandora discovered an obscure energy reaction on the surface. According to her description, it was similar to the residue of a psionic explosion.
Of course, this was worth paying attention to, but the reaction point was located near several main ground-based anti-air laser cannons. It was obvious that it was an important military location. If we wanted to investigate its situation, the best opportunity would be to use this landing operation. Fortunately, the large number of unmanned combat units of the Proteus race could minimize the losses of the landing operation. Furthermore, this way, we could also win the trust of this Free Kingdom. The situation in this strange world was extremely chaotic. As one of the main forces, the Free Kingdom was of course a breakthrough for us to figure out the situation. Yup, I also wanted to know if this Free Kingdom had come into contact with Liliana's Holy Temple Army. That girl's communication frequency had obviously been reset by the information barrier of this world. We couldn't possibly broadcast a full-band broadcast to the entire universe …
The content of the broadcast was as follows: "Someone accidentally lost a black-bellied, violent, pseudo-loli High Priestess Liliana. Her physical characteristics are slightly more than one meter tall. She looks sweet and cute on the surface, but her personality is vicious and cunning. She leads a violent demolition team of tens of thousands of people and an entire army of battleships (this number may be increasing). Please return her to the original owner in time to avoid unnecessary doomsday."
I reckon that once this broadcast was out, Liliana would go crazy.
Jayne's fleet began to approach low orbit, attracting the enemy's anti-air firepower from that distance. Meanwhile, the dozens of aircraft carriers of the Federation Army rapidly approached the atmosphere under the stealth force field of the Holy Mother Ship. Fortunately, we had modified the Holy Mother Ship's Spirit Network Generator, allowing it to have both group stealth and individual stealth states. The latter state could enhance the stealth of the designated target. However, we still had to move fast. The technological level of this world was in a strange state. Primitive technology and super technology existed almost simultaneously. Even the backward spaceships of Jayne's army that used jet thrusters and mechanical ejection devices could break the stealth force field of the Light of Aiur. I had no doubt that the ground stations of the colonial planets with better facilities would not be able to detect the enhanced stealth of the aircraft carriers.
Fortunately, under the spacetime acceleration of Shallow Shallow, the aircraft carriers only took "one minute" to complete the mission of releasing tens of thousands of combat robots and thousands of colossi into the atmosphere. After that, they quickly retreated. The ground troops of Planet Jedas had no idea what was happening. They did not realize that Jayne's army was just a cover, nor did they realize that dozens of aircraft carriers had suddenly disappeared from our mysterious army. A few minutes later, the news that the landing troops had arrived on the surface came back.
"The saboteurs have arrived at their predetermined targets. We will launch a surprise attack on three ground command centers and twenty-two energy stations. This will render two-thirds of the anti-air firepower in the northern hemisphere useless. The rest is up to you," Reynolds said to Jayne who was waiting on the communicator.
Reynolds said to Jayne, who was waiting on the communicator. Jayne's eyes widened as he looked in the direction of what might be another screen. "Your optical invisibility technology is amazing. It's scary to go against you guys." Jayne was a little surprised.
… It's even scarier to go against the Empire's fleet.
Ninety percent of the ground troops that had landed were Proteus' artificial intelligence units. Those agile and versatile tactical attack aircraft and colossi that were as tall as a hundred meters had amazing combat power. They were not afraid of death or pain. The information provided by Jayne showed that most of the military facilities on the surface of Jedas were designed to resist the local indigenous terrorists who had been rampant for a while. In the face of attack aircraft equipped with antimatter missiles and thermal energy cutting guns that could vaporize heavy armor in an instant, these bunkers that could deal with explosive weapons were extremely fragile.
The battle on the surface only lasted for less than thirty minutes. The sudden attack caught the enemies who were stubbornly resisting below by surprise, and the powerful units like the colossi probably surprised them too. Visible to the naked eye, dozens of bright flames bloomed under the thick atmosphere of Jedas, almost bursting out at the same time. Then, most of the anti-air lasers in the entire northern hemisphere were extinguished.
The rest was none of our business.
"Brother! Brother! I'm back! "
A crisp and cheerful voice suddenly sounded behind me. Needless to say, only the lively and active Visca could call out to me like this. More importantly, it was the excited Visca who had just vented her excess nitroglycerin. As expected, the moment I turned around, a small figure leaped into my arms, carrying a thick burnt smell …
Brat, go take a shower first.
Sneaking into someone else's spaceship and cutting off the entire engine system, engaging in a close-range firefight with the entire spaceship's guards, pushing the still-smoking spaceship engine through the crossfire zone for more than two hundred thousand kilometers. I don't know what other inhumane things she did in the process, but now, this brat's armpits smell like burnt oil.
"Mm …" Humming like a cat, Visca stubbornly burrowed into my arms as if she didn't know where she had just come from. Hugging the little brat's soft body, I could only acquiesce in the situation where my sister smelled like a cannonball. Seeing that Pandora hadn't arrived yet, Visca could enjoy the feeling of monopolizing her brother for a while.
"Alright, tell me now. Why did you forcefully steal someone else's engine?"
This was a question that I couldn't answer no matter how much I thought about it. Everyone knew that Pandora and Visca loved war, but I didn't know that they had the habit of stealing other people's engines. Their battle today was too bizarre.
"That engine has a Mosenmod structure inside it. Stupid sister wanted to see if the spaceship's control core had something to complement it, but she didn't have the time to dismantle the control core — those spaceships created by low-level civilizations are too weak!"
Out of habit, I broke out in cold sweat. Compared to these two lunatics who dismantled spaceships with their bare hands, those who dismantled mechas with their bare hands were so weak. And now, Visca was complaining that the spaceship was too weak …
Then, I was confused. Mosenmod structure? What is that? Is it the same system as a gearbox?
"Mosenmod structure, it is the last generation of fuel engine structure that was eliminated by the Empire." A voice sounded beside me without any warning, and I almost jumped sideways. Fortunately, I saw the other party's appearance clearly in the next second: a translucent shadow, a shadow whose edges seemed to be trembling as if it was affected by electromagnetic interference, a shadow with long black hair and a pair of glasses that gave off the aura of a domineering woman.
"Tawil? Is this a mass projection? Why does it look like it's running out of electricity? Why is it trembling? "
"The interference from the information barrier is too strong, and Sakura's bandwidth isn't enough," the researcher with long black hair shrugged. Her entire body blurred due to the large movement, and she only stabilized after a few seconds. "But this doesn't affect my research — yes, bandwidth is precious, so let's get down to business, Your Majesty. The engine that General Pandora and Visca snatched back seems to be a modified version of the last generation of fuel engine in the Empire. Although after the energy explosion circuit, vector traction, coordinate drive and other engine technologies matured, this kind of equipment that still requires fuel to be ignited to release power has been completely eliminated, but its 100% energy efficiency is still a technology that many civilizations can only dream of. The Mosenmod structure is a unique technology of the Xiling Empire, and its development process is closely related to the thought process of the Shiring Apostles. It can be said that only we can develop something similar."
"In other words, someone in this universe is violating the intellectual property of the Empire?"
"Ah Jun, can't you be more serious?" My sister rolled her eyes at me, and then said to Tawil, "This patent should still be in our hands, right?"
"… Anyway, I will continue to study the relevant information. If you discover more strange things in this world, please let me analyze them. We may be digging up a lost piece of history, at least in theory. Yup, the connection time is up, I will take my leave."
Ah, he used a very old-fashioned and stupid method to bypass my sister and me.
"Great teacher, our landing troops on the surface of Jedas have returned a message."
Just as Tawil cut off the connection, Zeratul's deep voice rang. He had connected to the Federation's internal encrypted channel, and a girl wearing a modified version of the Empire's ghost light armor appeared on the screen. Behind her, several ghost agents and two tall Dark Templars were carefully guarding. The background of this small operation team seemed to be a desolate rock bed, or perhaps the Gobi Desert. The ground beside them was still steaming with molten substance that had yet to cool down, and the wreckage of a few tanks was smoking not far away. The setting sun was filled with a desolate feeling.
Recently, I got wet very easily.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. I'm Nova." The girl who seemed to be the leader of the small operation team made me choke on my saliva. But before I could ask her anything else, this experienced female officer turned around and pointed at the smoking spot behind her. "This is the designated location. There was originally a mechanized unit of the enemy stationed here, but thanks to Instructor Raven of the Empire, it was easy to deal with these metal lumps. This is actually the bottom of a huge crater. It's so huge that it's almost like a basin. You can see that that's the edge of the crater. The enemy has built a facility that looks like an energy extraction station nearby. It continuously supplies energy to the two laser turrets nearby, and the source of energy for this extraction station … Although it's inconceivable, it's the air inside the crater." "The air here is filled with low-density psionic radiation, and it's very active.
"The air here is filled with low-density psionic radiation, and it's very active. With a little guidance, it can gather, which is a great help to us. My soldiers have collected a lot of soil samples, and these samples contain a small amount of psionic crystal powder and some alloy fragments that are suspected to be made by the Empire. However, I'm not very familiar with the latter. The Dark Templar Talom suspects that there's something under the crater. He said that his eyes saw light under the darkness, but it seems that time doesn't allow us to dig a mine here. Also, there were no casualties in this operation. Only the new recruit Li Wei was crushed by the enemy's heavy tank, but he's fine. Talom is currently fixing his bones, over."
The communication was cut off. I blinked and spread my hands at my sister. "Sis, I think this universe is a little f * cked up."
My sister gave me a gentle smack on the forehead.
"Sir, it's a communication from the Zeon Army. Should I connect it?"
"Connect it."
The next second, the entire bridge was filled with the loud voice of a certain handsome middle-aged man. I had no idea how he managed to maintain such strong vocal cords at his age. "Aha! The Queen is above, my friend! You have helped us reclaim this colonial planet! Jedas is now under the rule of the Kingdom! I owe you a huge favor! "
"It was indeed the 'light cavalry' that attacked this colonial planet. They have not broken away from the habits of the pirates of the past. Your miraculous airdrop attack in the northern hemisphere destroyed nearly half of their anti-air firepower. If these bandits were braver, they might have been able to rely on the celestial beacon towers near the equator to hold out for a while. However, these pirates were truly terrified by your army. After losing the northern hemisphere's anti-air firepower, they surrendered without much resistance. Hm, maybe you would like to hear this. It's really exciting …"
Zeon gestured to the side, and the radio signal intercepted by Zeon's Air Assault Team sounded from the communicator.
"… Outpost, Outpost 133, a large number of flashes suddenly appeared in the sky … Unidentified bombers broke through the atmosphere!"
"Our energy shields are broken! In just an instant, it was blown into pieces by the photon missiles like a soap bubble … Outpost 119 requesting reinforcements! Our energy supply has been cut off … "
"Two walking mechs that are hundreds of meters tall suddenly appeared. What the hell are they … Oh my god! They sliced off the cliff behind us with their laser beams! The outside of the outpost was melted! Requesting reinforcements! Those two monsters have an energy shield on the surface, our firepower is not … "
"There are many more, many more. These 'light cavalry' pirates who call themselves Galactic Warriors actually have times when they are scared shitless. Although the Iron Storm Guards of the Kingdom of Freedom can also make these mobs tremble in fear, I still have to say that your treasures are really exciting!"
Zeon was obviously in high spirits after recovering the lost territory in such a short period of time. Regardless of whether he was sincere or not, he praised the landing troops of the Federation Army loudly. Although he definitely had the intention of drawing us closer to the so-called Kingdom of Freedom, there was no lack of praise from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, I was getting more and more curious about the structure of this universe. The messy fleet, the completely unclassifiable level of science, the political map where almost the entire universe was at war with each other, and the atmosphere where the government and the civilians were collectively somewhere between pirates and the military. (Although it wasn't obvious, I realized that the army led by Zeon also had a hint of the aura of Galactic Pirates, although it had been completely washed clean). What kind of strange history did a normal civilization have to go through to develop to such a point? I felt that this place could already be called a sociologist killer.
Also, I was a little sympathetic towards the 'Captland Freedom Light Cavalry'.
For some reason, we got mixed up with Zeon's army and participated in the latter's war to recover their territory. For some reason, we fought a battle to the death with the largest group of 'official pirates' in this universe. From start to finish, we were in a state of confusion due to our unfamiliarity with the place. However, the 'Freedom Light Cavalry' was even more depressed. They did two things. First, they happily occupied Jedas, and second, they were killed by a bunch of strange people after six hours of high spirits.
This was what I later learned from Zeon. This group of Freedom Light Cavalry launched a successful attack that could be described as a textbook battle to seize territory. However, what was more worthy of note was their five hours and forty-three minutes of governing the planet. Not only did Zeon's army return at a speed that far exceeded their imagination, they also brought back a bunch of monstrous troops. Yes, most importantly, there were two monstrous short melons. However, I only had sympathy and disdain for these pitiful invaders. In the first place, as pirates, they were supposed to obediently move to a new place. Usually, they would kidnap a few hostages to extort some money for the maintenance of their seaside houses. Occasionally, they would loot a mine to fill their pockets. After that, they would tuck their tails between their legs and live peacefully for half a year. At the very most, they would post a recruitment notice on the local official website and state that their address was confidential. Contact: pending. Did they think that just because they were strong, they could imitate the rebel army to attack a city, occupy a throat, and declare themselves king? Wouldn't they be stupid …
A common bandit was the kind of person who would raise the national protection fee by twenty dollars the next day after occupying the presidential palace. When Zeon excitedly "liberated" the entire Jedas, half of the workers in the remote mining areas on the colonial planet did not even know that their planet had already been occupied. They had no idea what the Light Cavalry that came ashore were for, and they did not care whether the flashes of light that exploded in the sky were space cannons or lightning storms. From this, one could see how brainless the pirates who tried to take over the planet were …
Zeon, who was full of anticipation to be welcomed as a hero (Of course, he was welcomed by many people, but the speed at which the Light Cavalry was wiped out made the people's feelings for this war of liberation a little shallow. If we were to besiege the planet for twenty years and wait until most of the planet's population had died, I can guarantee that the entire planet would be in high spirits. That is, if those brainless pirates failed to establish a regime in twenty years), Zeon was a little disappointed. However, the lightning-fast reclamation battle had at least made up for most of his mistakes in garrisoning the planet. Therefore, the old handsome man's mood was unusually high.
We also landed on Jedas. Let me mention that Zeon is not a stubborn old man. After the reclamation battle, he rather generously agreed to our request to park the entire Federation fleet, including the Light of Aiur, in the outer atmosphere. This shows that we have already gained his trust … That is bullsh * t. He is just very clear about one thing: the small amount of troops he has at hand is really not enough to withstand a group of ferocious warships, especially two ferocious 1.2 meter tall warships.
