Later, there were more and more people in the bar.
Jaffa the Tifami and his little girlfriend, Sieshe's wife, Chaos Holy Priest Tripoka, River Toad Ambassador Dommoo, Robben called a group of young officers, and the drunken Teemo came again General Poppy, and eventually even the Prince of Mass, joined in and danced a Terenza court dance.
Then Allen arrived, and the crowded bar turned into a large disco scene.
Later, Old Tang performed his newly learned magic in public, and failed three times before summoning the awakening essence and transformation path. The first Sephiroth's Archangel "Bisin" transformed a bottle of water into "Tutukan Brew" .
The traditional "Tutukan brew" is brewed from the brains of the native species "Tutukan". It is one of the best spirits in the entire spiritual world. Amid the cheers of the crowd, Brother Shui drank a drink and only lasted for three seconds. Save personnel.
Old Tang secretly turned the drinks in everyone's cups into "Tutukan Brew".
Then, everyone got drunk in this sleepless night.
————
At a drunken moment, Li Liang was nestled on the sofa in the corner. Cain was leaning in his arms and smiling foolishly. His mechanical right arm lost control and his knuckles twitched unnaturally.
This was the first time he saw Cain drink like this.
The drunk Cain's muscles relaxed and he was more comfortable to hold than usual. His eyes reflected the flickering light, and his lips were moist...
Li Liang glanced around and saw that no one seemed to be paying attention, so he lowered his head and kissed her. As a result, he immediately felt a fierce response on his lips and teeth.
He held Cain's face and said helplessly: "Are you not drunk?"
"Drunk," Cain muttered with his eyes closed, then came closer.
There was a long, passionate kiss until at a certain moment, Li Liang opened his eyes and suddenly noticed from the corner of his eye that Ambassador Doumu of the River Toad was standing next to him with a slender pipe in his mouth and was talking with great interest. Watch them kiss.
"...How long have you been standing here?"
"Oh, I've been here since you first started," Dommu took a few puffs on his pipe, "Can you continue?"
"..."
Cain chuckled, kissed the side of Li Liang's face hard, and whispered in his ear: "Let's change places."
"where to?"
——————
Over the sea area of Zhenjie Fort, the Central Army Headquarters.
Alex, the former trainee communications officer of the Galaxy's navigation team, has been promoted to the chief navigation officer of the destroyer Tornado of the Third Division of the First Corps of the Central Army. At this moment, he had just finished his duty and was chatting with Lao Qin in the lounge.
fo
"...You are doing well in the Central Army, better than the Outer Territory Army," Old Qin said earnestly, "You are in the First Army, and there is a lot of room for promotion in the future."
Alex shook his head and lowered his voice: "Actually, I still want to return to the Outland Army. Most of my former comrades on the Galaxy have followed General Robben. I..."
"Don't be arrogant, Alex. Now everyone knows that General Sorge is more trusted by the Twin Gods. Did you know that among the first batch of graduates from the Military Academy, nearly 70% will be given priority to enter the Central Army."
"Oh," Alex sighed, "Let's not talk about it anymore. Lao Qin, how are you doing at the academy?"
"It's good. I'm giving lessons to the new recruits and using my spare energy."
Old Qin said it easily, but Alex could still hear the feeling of loneliness. When the legion was reorganized, he felt that with Old Qin's qualifications, he should command a battleship. Unexpectedly, he was sent to the officer academy in the end. An instructor.
He was just about to say something to comfort the old superior when he suddenly heard a flurry of footsteps coming from outside the lounge.
"Go out and take a look," Lao Qin quickly stood up.
The two came to the corridor, grabbed a person and asked, "What's going on?"
"The Twin Gods are coming."
"What?"
Alex's face was full of surprise. Not long after the opening ceremony, there were many foreign affairs activities in Qishan City. How could the Twin Gods have time to come to the Central Army Headquarters and come so suddenly.
He and Lao Qin looked at each other and ran to the other end of the corridor at the same time.
More than ten minutes later, all the officers gathered in the front hall of the headquarters, waiting quietly for their leader.
moment.
Li Liang walked in and raised his hand in greeting.
Huh~
Everyone raised their hands in salute at the same time.
At this time, Cain, who was walking with Li Liang, looked around, pointed at Alex in the queue and said, "You stay, the others disperse."
Upon hearing the order, Lao Qin immediately turned around and patted Alex on the back before leaving.
Soon, there were only three people left in the front hall.
Alex tensed up and stood up straight.
When the fleet that went to Avalon to negotiate returned, Cain had asked his name, but it was just a casual question. He had no idea that Cain still remembered him, let alone why he left him behind.
"Your name is... Alex?" Cain approached and asked.
"Yes, General."
"Can you fly a spaceship?"
"Yes, general, Hummingbird-class special service ship, Mosquito-class assault ship and..."
"One that can fly to the sun."
"Sun?" Alex was stunned and looked at Li Liang subconsciously.
"I'm sorry, she..." Li Liang put his arm around Cain's shoulders and smiled, "If we want to go near the sun now, is there anything we can do?"
"Uh..." Alex thought for a moment, "First take the special service ship to the Dark Star mothership in geostationary orbit, then transfer to the flea-type interstellar ship equipped with a curvature engine to go to the moon base... The Axia is currently in Routine maintenance is done there, and we can... take the Axia to the nearest observatory."
"How long does the whole journey take?"
"The fastest...about five to six hours."
"Then let's go."
"Now?"
"Now."
Alex took a deep breath and puffed out his chest: "Yes!"
——————————
The nearest observation station is 150 million kilometers away from the earth.
"Recent observation station, this is Asia, please open the docking channel."
"Recent observation station, this is Asia, please..."
"I know, I know, stop shouting," an impatient voice came from the communication channel. It sounded like an old man, "No. 3, did you see it? No. 3 is open."
"...Recently at the observation station, I did not receive the verification program."
"Sorry, I'm stuck, please wait a moment..."
The command hall of the Asia was silent.
"How come it's still stuck?" Li Liang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Alex on the side explained: "Recently, the observatory has been in a semi-abandoned state and has been in disrepair..."
"Why abandon it?"
"This observatory originally belonged to the Deep Space Defense Corps. Later, no alien civilization was found, and various deep space defense lines were gradually withdrawn. The sun has no research value, so the maintenance application for the observatory has never been approved..."
Li Liang suddenly realized.
After all, the sun is just an ordinary main sequence star, and Xi'an, who was able to establish an observatory at the end of the observable universe, has long mastered all its secrets and lost interest in continuing to observe it, just like the former Zhenjie Fort.
"Oh, Asia, channel 3 is broken," the old man's voice sounded again on the communication channel, "Why don't you try channel 7?"
The communications officer was laughing so hard that he was out of breath: "Recent station, No. 7... hiccup hiccup... No. 7 successfully docked..."
The old man opposite held it in for a long time, and finally asked in confusion: "Is there a goose over there?"
Now the whole command hall burst into laughter.
Half an hour later.
Li Liang woke up Cain and, accompanied by Alex, took a pontoon boat through the several-kilometer-long docking channel and entered the nearest observation station.
What greeted them was Eugene Parker, who was in his eighties and served as station commander, communications officer, science officer, and mechanic...
In short, there is only one living person in the entire recent observation station.
When they met, Eugene's first question was: "Asia is a ship of the Interstellar Expeditionary Force. Why does the system show that it belongs to Army Group Center? What is the organization of Army Group Center?"
The question left Alex speechless.
Li Liang asked in disbelief: "Didn't you notice the legion's restructuring?"
"The long-distance signal tower was burned out by a flare last year, and I haven't repaired it yet," Eugene frowned, "When was it renovated?"
Cain's eyes widened: "You don't know about the war on Earth?"
"War? With whom? Did you find aliens?"
"..."
Looking at the wrinkled old face in front of him, Li Liang couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous.
A forgotten old man, guarding an equally forgotten star alone. If humans were extinct during the previous goblin invasion, old Eugene might spend the rest of his life silently here.
"Forget it, I don't care," Eugene shrugged, "What's your mission here?"
"Where can I see the sun," Cain asked.
"follow me."
