When the fairing rose, Li Liang let out a long sigh of relief.
This abandoned single-man combat spaceship was an antique, and the inertial compensation technology in the cockpit was quite backward. In addition, it was located next to the engine, and the gravitational field was constantly vibrating. After three hours of flight, he was completely numb.
Fortunately, the Galaxy was not flying at full speed, and he had put on the inertial compensation equipment and life support system in advance. At least now he could still stay awake and observe the outside through the window.
He saw a dense array of positional attack ships and a fleet of quick-response fleets wandering along the flanks.
The Galaxy seemed to be rotating slowly, and before long, the Earth could finally be seen from his perspective.
It turned out that the location where the Galaxy stopped was still some distance from the earth. Not only could he see the entire earth, he could also see an upper city.
It is also a wheel-shaped geostationary satellite. The last time he and the moon landing team entered space on an orbiting spacecraft, they saw the upper city of Rocky Mountain City. The upper city in front of him was obviously larger, perhaps the upper city of Zhongjing.
Soon, he discovered that the giant white satellite was moving away from the earth at a speed that could be detected by the naked eye, and little stars of light were constantly flowing out of it flying towards the earth.
As the earth rotates, at a certain moment, the surface of the earth flashes with colored light, vaguely covered with a thin film.
When he realized it, Xi'an had already started building a near-ground defense line.
The reality is too absurd. The enemy of mankind is not in the depths of the universe, but in the hinterland of home. What is even more absurd is Zero One's conservative strategy. Closing the door and pretending that the spiritual world does not exist will eventually lead to disaster. Now building such a defense line to surround one's home is quite shabby.
The Galaxy stayed in place, and the flat, drop-shaped Lanikea "overtook" from one side, leading a large group of spacecraft along an arc track and disappearing behind the earth.
The spaceship of the Temple Guard Corps quickly approached the Galaxy.
This time, the hyperspace dragline was not activated. Xi'an's spaceship revealed its original shape, like an upright shield with sharp edges and corners, dotted with red and silver. Several particles spread out on both sides of the spacecraft guarding the center. The sail is like a golden ribbon.
Facing heavy weapons such as the Galaxy and Asia, Xi'an behaved very cautiously.
The takeover process took longer than the sailing time. Xi'an must have conducted a second full-ship search at the same time. Li Liang took off his inertia compensation equipment and waited quietly.
Four and a half hours later.
Boom, boom, boom.
Someone knocked on the cabin roof.
Li Liang looked up and saw a fat face with a thick beard. Then, the cockpit cover opened, and he was pulled out and into a narrow inspection opening.
Climbing along the hanging ladder of the maintenance pipe into the slightly larger airlock, the pure oxygen supplied by the life support system began to mix with nitrogen. The temperature and humidity changed, and a layer of water mist formed on Li Liang's helmet.
Half an hour later, the system showed that "human body processing" was completed. Li Liang took off his mask and took several deep breaths before he could adapt to the air with normal proportions.
"Xian's search is over?"
Jin Ji nodded: "Yes, a man from the Temple Legion has become the commander-in-chief. In order to cooperate with the construction of the near-earth defense system, the Galaxy and the interstellar expeditionary force fleet are temporarily not allowed to enter the medium-high earth orbit. The chief of staff asked me to tell you that he We will seek permission to dispatch a landing fleet as soon as possible."
"Okay," Li Liang nodded. Although Xi'an sent a deputy to restrain Robben, judging from the decision to make an exceptional promotion, it was obvious that he attached great importance to the former commander-in-chief of the Galaxy. "By the way, Xi'an signed a contract with Goblin. What is the content of the treaty?”
"The command headquarters is still in a meeting, and there will be news later."
"Um."
Li Liang fell silent.
Jin Ji seemed a little nervous. After all, it was too close to Xi'an and anything could happen. However, when he secretly looked at Li Liang's face, he was in a trance for a moment. He felt that being able to stand side by side with the "Twin Gods" was beyond his dreams. Unexpected things.
Maybe in the future, it would be possible for me to...enter the Hall of Valor? Be bolder, Pantheon?
Eternal life...who doesn't want eternal life?
The waiting lasted for another two hours this time. During this period, Jin Ji went out several times and received some news one after another. Li Liang finally knew that the situation on earth was more tense than imagined.
The goblins sent a total of three legions, all of which were stationed outside the Gate of Spiritual Reason. Only the sentry troops of the "Nordrassil" legion entered the earth.
This advance army crossed the border savagely, and the Zhenjie Fort and the human facilities outside the sky in Zhongjing, Mexico City, and Rocky Mountain City successively fell. During this period, countless human civilians were slaughtered.
In the mines in western Zhongjing alone, rough statistics put the number of dead and missing in the tens of thousands.
After the treaty was finalized, on the day of the opening of the sky, riots occurred in three cities at the same time, resulting in countless human casualties. Especially in Mexico City, half of the city was destroyed by the war.
Xian made a request on the grounds that the goblins had broken their promise. Except for the three concession cities agreed in the treaty, which could temporarily withdraw their troops, the goblin armies in other areas must return to the spiritual world.
After another round of difficult negotiations, the two sides reached a fragile agreement.
In the end, the goblins only promised that the goblin army in the wasteland would return to the Zhenjie Fortress, and that humans would not be allowed to enter the spiritual world until the "new world" was successfully conceived.
When Jin Ji returned for the last time, the latest news he brought was that the goblin army had withdrawn to the Zhenjie Fort as promised. The Interstellar Expeditionary Corps received the order, and nine rapid response fleets were divided into groups of three, cooperating with the temple garrison, and headed to Zhongjing and Beijing respectively. In Mexico City and Rocky Mountain City, three deep space defense fleets went to the western Zhongjing Mine, the southern mine in Mexico City, and the Monterey Bunker in Rocky Mountain City to establish defenses.
The opportunity has come.
As soon as he got the news, Li Liang set off immediately. Under the cover of Jin Ji, he left the Galaxy and headed for the deep space defense fleet that was about to fly to the mine in the west of Zhongjing.
He knows very well that the risk of entering Zhongjing is very high at the moment. No matter how he enters the sky, he must undergo another comprehensive scan. The entrance and exit of the sky is narrow and he can be easily identified. The western mine is relatively safer. As the third A more secure place to stay.
His goal was to enter the Zhenjie Fort and go through the Spiritual Gate to the Spiritual World. Judging from the time, the most likely area for Tam, Sorge and his party to stay was the Western Mine.
Since countless spaceships were mobilized at the same time, Li Liang encountered almost no setbacks and successfully arrived at a heavy infrastructure equipment carrier of the deep space defense fleet.
He was greeted by Onkyo, the close confidant of Andre, the president of the marginal business unit.
Compared to the last time they met, Anqiao looked extremely excited at this moment, with his eyes full of fiery ambition.
"Mr. Li Liang," she was wearing a smart dark purple uniform, and her epaulettes had been changed to silver. She made a standard hand-raising salute, with the palm of her right hand facing forward, her thumb curled back, her middle finger, ring finger and little finger together with her index finger. separate.
Li Liang was wearing a double ring, but still couldn't return the gift. He could only nodded and motioned for Anqiao to lead the way.
Passing through the giant cargo hold filled with heavy infrastructure equipment, the two entered the hiding place specially prepared for Li Liang, separated from the engine room by a wall.
The noise made by the spacecraft engine when working at low power is very similar to a "theremin". The oscillating and repeated "electronic sound" sounds like a repeated melody through the metal wall.
This cabin looks like a temporary office for a maintenance engineer. It can be seen that it has just been cleaned neatly, and there are still water stains on the ground.
Li Liang looked around and asked casually: "Have you got the detailed contents of the treaty?"
"got it."
He sat down at his desk and took the "glass plate" from Onkyo.
He had taken off his retinal projection before setting off from the moon, and now he could only use this handheld device to view documents.
The thin glass plate displayed an offline document with up to a hundred pages. After flipping through it quickly, Li Liang deeply understood what humiliation was from between the lines.
What worries him even more is that goblins have a very obvious bottom line, that is, before the "new world" is conceived, humans must not enter the spiritual world.
Putting down the handheld device, Li Liang pinched his eyebrows.
From this alone, it can be seen that the goblin has no intention of cooperating, and it will only be a matter of time before the agreement is broken.
The opportunity for renewed war is obvious - the "New World", and the goblin won't have much patience...
