After receiving the distress signal from Captain Ed, even though it was sent by some kind of signaling device of the Quill people, the Orville's first mate Kelly did not dare to neglect it, but rushed to the ship as soon as possible regardless of the danger. The place where the signal is sent.
After arriving, when Anne happily took several armed soldiers from the Orville on a shuttle to fly to a signal point on a certain planet, she regretfully discovered that there was only a small group of about twenty odd-looking crooked star people. Are the militants hunting for that hapless idiot Uncle Ed?
So, Annie, who was very dissatisfied and dissatisfied with the idiot Uncle Ed's behavior of sending out an emergency distress signal even when he encountered twenty or so armed men, decisively went into a rage and brazenly used the transport shuttle as a fighter jet. After a few simple dive bombing and strafing rounds, he successfully used the legendary defensive particle cannon to wipe out all the enemies.
Finally, after flying majestically in the sky for several times and successfully knocking out several soldiers in the cabin and vomiting them, she reluctantly picked up a pitiful and stunned Uncle Ed and a familiar Quill. They fished it out together on the Orville.
Then, while taking the injured Uncle Ed to the medical room for treatment immediately, everyone reluctantly learned the whole story from each other's mouths.
turn out to be……
Was his new girlfriend, the new navigator assigned by the Planetary Alliance Command, a big trap from beginning to end?
That Janell is actually not the beautiful Earthling officer that everyone thinks she is, but just an impostor transformed by Treya from Quill!
That was all a conspiracy, a conspiracy against the Orville and Captain Ed!
God knows how those losers at the Planetary Alliance Command let the Quill captive Treya escape in the first place, but Fang Zheng, she managed to escape, and soon after stealing the Star Alliance's communications, she turned against them. The Orville carried out this secret revenge operation.
Since the other party used human cells for grafting and some painful body transformation process before executing the plan, it was easy to deceive the eyes of everyone on the Orville and the detection instruments, and finally successfully used The "honey trap" abducted and captured Captain Ed, and even obtained Captain Ed's captain password through the "bitter meat trap". .
Fortunately, before the group of Quills could use Ed's captain's code to carry out a series of conspiracies, their destroyer unfortunately encountered the privateer of the space pirates Shakto, and soon... After attacking the Quail warship, Quail beauty Treya (Jenelle) had to escape from the escape cabin with her captive Ed in the chaos, and luckily escaped to the nearest planet with a breathable atmosphere. .
But at the same time, the cruel pirate Shakto soldiers who never left prisoners or survivors also followed them to the planet.
When he saw that the two of them would soon be found and shot to death by Shakto pirates, or they would do something first and then be shot to death, Ed persuaded his ex-girlfriend Treya, a Quill, and took him with him. The signal transmitter of the Quail lifeboat ran to the top of the highest mountain and transmitted the signal.
Since the day time on that planet is very long, more than twenty days compared to the standard Earth, and the two of them do not have enough supplies, and the threat of the Shakto people is imminent, so the Quillian Treya had to agree to Ai Ed's plan is to let Ed go to the top of the mountain alone and use instruments to send a distress signal to the Quill warship in the universe.
However, no matter how stupid Ed was, he would never listen to the other party's order and actually send a distress signal to the Quills. After setting up the equipment, he in turn used the other party's equipment to send a message to the Orville with him. The distress signal with the identification information successfully summoned the Orville, and once again successfully switched the identities of the captive and the captive between the two of them, playing a cruel trick on the Quill woman.
Everyone knows what happened next. It was nothing more than Annie and her people arriving quickly, using a shuttle boat to perform some combat bombing skills, and finally successfully brought Ed and Treya, a Quillian who was captured again Went back.
But the result...
After a few days of calm, Captain Ed didn't know whether he was having a mental seizure or relapsed into an old relationship.
Ran actually made the decision in the end, contacted the Quill people, and sent the Quill female captive Treya back instead of handing her over to the Planetary Alliance Command as others imagined?
And what Ed means is: The dispute between the Planetary Alliance and the Quail people should not be expanded. That will not be beneficial to both parties?
Therefore, after he told Treya that he hoped that Treya could express to the top management of the Quail people the desire of the Planetary Alliance to live in peace with each other after returning, he took the initiative to send a signal to the Quail people, and successfully attracted a group of people. After a Quail destroyer, the captive Treya was sent away.
In this regard, although everyone on the Orville unconditionally carried out Captain Ed's orders, there were still some people who had different opinions and views, such as helmsman Gordon.
"Honestly!"
"I just can't figure it out!"
"Why did Ed let her go even though she was caught for the second time?"
"I heard about it!"
"Last time, the headquarters was run away by her, which was a huge loss of face. If we catch her again this time and send her back, I believe she will be able to make a great contribution, right?"
"Okay now, let the prisoners go. If the superiors find out, they will definitely be mad!"
"When the time comes, who will be unlucky?"
Although it has been two days since the incident, the helmsman Gordon is still a little bit worried about it, so much so that while controlling the spacecraft, he is facing the commanding first officer Kelly behind him at his post. Complaining and thinking like this.
"rest assured!"
"It doesn't matter. When the time comes, just say it was Annie's decision."
First Officer Kelly didn't know what she was busy with. She was clicking on the options on her holographic screen while answering without raising her head. She had obviously colluded with Ed on how to report.
"!!"
(*??????*;)
"That's not my decision!"
(????へ????╬)
"You're talking nonsense!"
(????????)
Hearing this, Anne next to him naturally glared at the other party angrily.
Because a certain idiot Captain Ed needed to adjust for a few days, and the captain's throne remained empty, so Annie, who had eaten and had nothing to do, would occasionally come here for a walk to cause trouble for others, or Jumping on the captain's throne like this.
(…)
(●￣??￣●)
"They won't admit it anyway!"
o(??『)o
"..."
However, Kelly didn't take it seriously and was still busy with her work without raising her head.
She didn't want to explain too much to Annie or Gordon. After all, only she, as the first mate, and Ed, as the captain, could report directly to the commanders of the Planetary Alliance Command on the Orville, and the others were not allowed to do so. In the case of very serious changes, it is impossible to report beyond the level.
Moreover, she believed that even if the commanders of the headquarters knew the actual situation, they would turn a blind eye, and they would certainly not punish the Orville, which has repeatedly made meritorious service, for such trivial matters, and is currently becoming a star battleship of the Planet Alliance. Captain's.
"this……"
After smacking his lips, Gordon was at a loss for words when he heard that First Officer Kelly actually planned to use Anne as a shield. He had no choice but to turn away angrily and continue to absently check some information at his post.
"Too!"
"The superiors really don't dare to punish Anne."
"They should be used to it. After all, Anne just likes to do whatever she wants. It doesn't seem like it's a big deal to release a prisoner?"
When Gordon thought about it, as long as Anne didn't go crazy enough to blow up the Orville in public, the commanders of the headquarters would definitely not and would not dare to interfere easily with other matters, because those old men were not stupid, they should know Interfering is futile and brings humiliation to oneself.
"Talk nonsense again!"
(??????????)
"You are the one who likes to misbehave!"
o(*「ー??)o
Anne said that she, the Head of State Anne, only likes to make little pranks or make trouble when she is bored, so she is not as unbearable as the other party said!
"ha!"
"Gordon!"
"Releasing people, etc., actually, it can be regarded as the captain's duty and a kind of consciousness!"
Kelly ignored Annie, but after thinking about it, she suddenly looked up at Gordon teasingly and asked:
"Do you still want to apply for the commander's exam?"
"If you want, you can treat the captain's decision this time as a test. How many points do you think his decision to release the prisoners will be worth?"
In Kelly's opinion, this time's incident is a good test question.
Previously, when Gordon used an environmental simulator to conduct a commander test, he also conducted a test of negotiation and negotiation with the Quill people. The result...
Gordon's performance was terrible every time, extremely bad!
Either he was destroyed by fire from the angry Quill warships, or he provoked the Quills to launch large-scale retaliation or even a full-scale war. She, the examiner, was a little frightened when she saw him, and she was thankful every time. Fortunately, the Orville No matter what the conditions are, it will not be Lieutenant Gordon's turn to be the temporary captain and commander. Otherwise, it will definitely be the end of the Orville.
"I……"
This question was quite novel, so Gordon immediately stopped what he was doing and started thinking about it.
"I have no idea."
"Maybe I'll hand it over to the alliance's headquarters?"
"But I will definitely not let her go easily. As you know, First Officer Kelly, the Quills are a bunch of lunatics. They attack our Covenant spaceship when they see it, and they can't communicate at all!"
"So if it were me, whether I would continue to hold her for interrogation or hand it over, I would never let her go like the captain did."
After thinking for a long time, Gordon turned to look at First Officer Kelly and gave his answer.
"..."
However, Kelly did not comment. Instead, after thinking for a while, she looked at Anne aside and asked:
"Annie?"
"If it were you..."
"what will you do?"
She suddenly felt that this test question was quite good, because it was a real case, and why there was no correct answer or choice so far. So, if someone could give a better solution, maybe in the future. After the result comes out, she can enter it into the test question bank as a new commander test question?
"Eh?"
(??????.??????)????????
"How to do it?"
(=??『=)
Unexpectedly, while listening, the other party actually asked about herself, which surprised Anne.
"Um……"
(*??~??*)
"It seems useless if you keep it locked up, and it will waste food if you keep it; it would be too troublesome to hand it over... but it would be too cruel to kill it. After all, she is Uncle Ed's girlfriend."
(′～ ●)
"So, maybe they will just let it go, right?"
o(*??︶??*)o
After thinking for less than three seconds, Annie quickly gave her answer and expressed her support for what that idiot Uncle Ed did.
"!!"
"But!"
"Annie, the Quills are enemies of our Planetary Alliance!"
"If you take away prisoners, you are indulging the enemy!"
Hearing that Annie's answer was different from his own, Gordon was a little dissatisfied, and then retorted loudly.
, and successfully attracted other people in the bridge to look at the three people who were asking such interesting questions.
"Correction."
"Lieutenant Gordon, so far, the Alliance has never declared the Quills as enemies, and has never officially declared war on the Quills."
"So, your wording is not accurate."
Seeing that Kelly and Annie were not speaking, the robot engineer Isaac used the emotionless electronic synthesized voice to correct certain errors in Gordon's speech in a rigid and rigorous manner.
"Isaac is right!"
"Attention everyone!"
"I must explain: Although we have had many battles with Quill and caused huge losses to both sides, I am also very sure that our Planetary Alliance has not officially declared war on Quill. Therefore, they really Not our enemy."
"At least not yet?"
Nodding, Kelly, while agreeing with Isaac's statement, also solemnly stated this key point to the crew members who were listening on the bridge, lest they do something against Quill in the future. Faulty personal emotions and biases can be brought into decision-making.
"So!"
"Gordon, I don't have the correct answer to the question just now, but your answer just now, especially the way you directly regarded the Quills as enemies, I'm afraid you won't get an ideal score?"
"Do you still want to continue applying for commander?"
"If you want, I should be able to spare time in the afternoon to conduct the last assessment on you. Although your scores in all assessments so far are very bad, I will still go through that process as long as you need it. That is your right. .”
First mate Kelly looked at helmsman Gordon again and waited for his answer.
"..."
Gordon stopped talking.
And looking at the expression of resentment and shame on his face, it's easy to tell that he obviously doesn't think much about it.
"OK."
"I see."
"I will give your application a final score and file it, and then I will unfortunately tell you that you will not be able to apply again until the end of this year."
"If you still want to, I suggest you come back next year when you are ready?"
After saying that, Kelly finally breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to reveal the matter.
Thinking about it, she knew that the reason why Gordon wanted to apply for the commander exam before was just because he took it for granted that "Janell" was seduced by Ed first because of his status and position as "captain" Because of that, and now that he knows that "Janelle" is a Quill woman pretending to be a woman, and that after knowing that Ed almost didn't come back after experiencing a near-death experience, he is completely relieved and let go, he will definitely not You're just asking for trouble again.
After all, everyone knows that Gordon's personality is really not suitable for being a captain. Alola's performance was much better than him before. At least Alola would not mess around, and would take the initiative to give up power at certain times.
"Report!"
"First Mate Kelly!"
At this moment, just when Kelly was about to say something to end the topic started by Gordon and make a summary, surprisingly, the new security officer on the Orville, who was in Alola The second security officer who was transferred after leaving spoke.
"I received a strange message, sent from a planet using an ancient microwave code."
"After translation..."
"What the other party probably meant was: "Is there anyone over there?" "
The female lieutenant, who was also from Shilea but was older than Alola, said to Kelly excitedly.
As for the originally transferred security officer from the Elephant Trunk Crooked Star, although he was very dedicated, due to some lifestyle habits that were in serious conflict with the crew of the Orville, he was pushed away. Now this Shilea The human lieutenant was specially recruited by the superiors to take care of the opinions of everyone on the Orville.
"!!"
After hearing the lieutenant's report, Kelly applied for a warning and called immediately.
He turned on the communicator and called Captain Ed who was undergoing repairs:
"Ed!"
"quick!"
"Please come to the bridge immediately!"
"We received a radio wave from a planet."
"We're going to prepare for first contact!"
First Mate Kelly said excitedly, and at the same time, other people in the bridge, including the Hilian lieutenant who reported the report, Gordon, Isaac, Petrus and others, all excitedly started talking about their When operating at a certain position, it’s like preparing for some major action?
"??"
(??????.??????)????????
"What happened?!"
(??Д??≡??д??)!?
"Are you going to fight?"
(?????????‖)??
"That's great, I want to be the captain! Tell Uncle Ed to stop coming!"
??(??o??)??
Seeing everyone's ridiculously excited behavior, Anne thought they were going to fight or something, so she hurriedly sat down on the captain's throne and prepared to give orders.
