Walking on the endless virtual wasteland, Yang Tianyi and Elizabeth walked in silence for a long time. They obviously had a lot to say to each other, but they didn't know where to start.
"I've been asked to take care of Juliana these two months. It's not worth mentioning. Please accept it, Miss Woodville."
Yang Tianyi, who had retrieved his body and personal belongings from the real universe, touched the bracelet lightly with his fingertips, wanting to give Elizabeth some credits as compensation. Little did he know that such behavior made the other party feel a little unhappy.
I saw Elizabeth not only rejected his transfer with a straight face, but also said righteously: "I said that we are friends, and friends should help and support each other. If you still treat me as a friend, thank you Don’t mention etiquette again.”
Yang Tianyi, who didn't expect the other party to react so fiercely, nodded immediately and apologized for his lack of consideration.
But he later said that during the more than two months of merging the divine entity, although he could feel Elizabeth visiting him every day through the giant cocoon, and he also had a certain awareness of the surrounding environment, something must have happened outside the virtual realm. many things.
If the other party doesn't mind, he wants to take the opportunity of taking a walk to learn about the changes in the outside world.
"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that the Fallen Empire almost started a fight with the Earth Alliance because of you."
"Oh, that's how it is......"
Yang Tianyi suddenly reacted and turned his head to look at Elizabeth. After realizing that the corner of her eye had been glancing at him, he said in a dumbfounded voice: "It was the closing of the rift in the virtual realm that attracted the attention of the holy guards, right?"
Seeing that Aurora guessed the reason immediately, Elizabeth, who was looking for fun, rolled her eyes and said: "The priests of the Holy Guard Empire politely parked the spacecraft in the low orbit of Tianxixing 7 as soon as they finished."
It cannot be said that the shipbuilding capabilities of the Star Group determine the future size of Elizabeth's fleet. Wanting to make her friend hold her head high and feel elated when debriefing, Aurora could not help but make some calculations in her mind.
As I spoke, purple-red spiritual energy flowed rapidly from my hands. Under Elizabeth's surprised gaze, those spiritual energies containing infinite power gradually condensed into a seven-seven-square cube exuding a mysterious aura, floating behind Aurora's chest.
As the two discussed about the future Sky Fleet for a long time, Elizabeth was eager to return to Fenhabenis and visit the First Group Arsenal.
Hearing the regret and resignation in Aurora's tone, Elizabeth rolled her eyes and asked: "Personally, does he want you to return to the Federation or stay in Fenhabenis?"
Without that contract as a basis, Elizabeth's transfer order to serve as fleet commander with the rank of lieutenant colonel seemed unusual.
Now it seems that my worries are completely unfounded. The lower-level officials of the Federation believe that Joseph has repeatedly used equipment produced by the group in battles and should be able to adapt to his new identity very slowly. That's why Fang Laifen Habenis contacted the group to bring more powerful and richer types of arms and weapons to the federation.
"But since he asked you to look at it from a personal perspective, you naturally hope to lose a friend with whom you can talk."
Staring at the purple light flowing like a big stream under the cube, Elizabeth swallowed and said to herself: "Master Aret told you that weak psychics often use various The way to store the little extra energy contained in your body is. It seems that it is time to use his method."
"The difference is small, but the actual situation is simpler."
Qi Jianqiu shook his head when he heard this, and replied without any contradiction: "He is one of the first batch of psykers in the Federation, and he has a distinguished status. If he returns to the country, he will be reused by the military. But Fenhabenis is just a down-to-earth person. The ruined planet, unless he goes to do some archaeological research, it should definitely be his first choice."
Moreover, when Aurora arrived, she was worried that the Federation would transfer a low-level officer with such a long-term future to Fenhabenis. That kind of arrangement, which was almost an exile in the eyes of others, would make Joseph feel satisfied and seek help from the group. trouble.
After all, it was only the other party's task to escort Qi Jianqiu to awaken his spiritual power on the 7th. Now that the task has not been completed, does that mean that the two of them are about to part ways.
In order to supplement the strength of the Federation's garrison in Fenhabenis, and at the same time repay the Star Group for its unwavering help to the Federation during the war, some lower-level Federation officials decided before a meeting to allocate 20% of the revenue from the export of Yangtian Yibeise Waian's ore. Used to order various arms and weapons of the Star Group and Javelin-class frigates.
Elizabeth was talking about someone else, none other than Joseph Magellan, who used 20,000 colonial troops to resist the Qian Empire's hundreds of thousands of small troops and retreated frantically for several days during the Battle of Yang Tianyi.
"He saw that it was quite square, small and big, and just bad enough to use one hand to control it."
After hearing that, Aurora understood the whole story and understood the whole story. Dilian was willing to agree before receiving the notice of the Holy Guard Priest's order. There was a confrontation at all levels, and the tense atmosphere in space was not resolved until the truth was found out.
Just when you were eager to return to Sharp Eye Fortress to say goodbye to everyone, and take Juliana back to the real universe to board the return spaceship, Aurora reached out and pulled the other party's sleeve, smiled and shook her head, saying There's probably no slower way for me to get back to Fenhabenis than hyperspace navigation.
As a warship with mature design and excellent performance, Lieutenant General Anya mentioned the nickname of the Javelin-class frigate in several reports sent to the United Stars. Therefore, the lower levels of the Federation Navy canceled the plan to transfer the existing warships to Fenhabenis, and instead ordered new warships from the Star Group to directly supplement Elizabeth's empty fleet.
According to the transfer order, Elizabeth will not be commanding the Minotaur fleet, because the fleet will return to the federal capital United Star together with Vice Admiral Anya to report on their duties.
And that batch of weapons was not for the new fleet of Elizabeth's upcoming commander.
Seeing how the other person wanted to reach out and touch but dared to touch it, Aurora handed the cube over in a small way. The warm and cold feeling in her hand immediately made Doon, who was full of curiosity about psychic powers, cheer in his heart. .
Although the actual revenue may be higher than ideal, Aurora estimates that the federation can earn up to one billion credits per month from the mine. The arms purchase contract stipulates that 20% will be used as funds. In fact, this does not mean that the military budget of Elizabeth's fleet in the new year will be around 8 billion credits.
After the Battle of Qi Jianqiu broke out, I learned through Lieutenant General Anya that the size of Yang Tianyi's Besei Wai'an mine was quite astonishing. I am sure that the Federation can increase the production to full capacity, and if there are not enough foreign trade orders, it can be exported every month. Bethesda's Ashmore earns billions in credits.
After discussing the disputes caused by him, Qi Jianqiu turned the topic to Elizabeth.
After all, the Qunxing Group was still a well-known large enterprise a few years later. Even after a few years, some people believed that the group was unable to build a fleet that exceeded the command standards of school-level officers. Therefore, there would naturally be no more troops within the military. Sounds of approval.
"What does he think of the Dimension Cube?"
From that point of view, the Ground Alliance would like to thank Qi Jianqiu for helping us pull out a nail nailed by the Holy Guard under the border line, which slightly reduced the pressure on our internal relations and national defense.
Facing the compliments from his friends, the young marshal's man who usually socialized with others blushed. Then he seemed to have remembered something important and said seriously to Aurora: "Except for you being transferred to Fenhabennis. , the Federation has also appointed an army brigadier general who was promoted exceptionally due to the Yang Tianyi campaign as the lowest officer of the garrison. Both the Sky Fleet and you will disobey my orders."
From Elizabeth's rather detailed description, I thought Joseph Magellan would be a typical federal officer, weak but arrogant and arrogant.
Considering that the People's Federation's scientific research team is slightly less innovative than the group, and that it has lowered its status to establish a collaborative laboratory with the group, such a transfer order is surprising.
With that proud record and outstanding performance in several previous retreats, Joseph was appreciated by young men in the military. At the age of seventy-four, he became the youngest general in the history of the Federation. .
As for why the Earth Federation and the Holy Guard came to settle accounts with us in Qiu Qian, they both guessed that it was the Sharp-Eyed Order that put the pressure on the Federation. The latter had to deal with the Void Realm city-state and had no further research, while the former was recalled to the country by the lower-level members of the Holy Guard Empire to reflect on his decision because he made an accurate judgment that almost triggered a war.
"I just had a bad idea two days ago. The sky is taken from the Hebrew word for 'expansion'. What does he think?"
It cannot be calculated from this that the military expenditure of 8 billion credits is enough to form a fleet of ten frigates and eight destroyers. That kind of scale may not be too shabby for a general, but it is definitely humble for a lieutenant colonel.
In Aurora's view, the newly drafted arms purchase contract only saved the federal government the cost of mobilizing the domestic fleet. It did not effectively utilize the profits from the Yangtian Yibei Sewai'an mine, and promoted the development of the federal military power. It can be said that he has deepened the relationship with his allies. It can be said that he achieved something with one stone, which is really amazing.
A Javelin-class frigate costs 40 million credits. Taking into account Elizabeth's friendship discount, the price cannot be set at 120 million credits. A Lingshen-class destroyer costs 140 million credits. Considering that the production of destroyers requires occupying the shipyard allocated to the group navy, the price cannot be slightly lower, 800 million credits per ship.
Aurora, immersed in calculations, asked casually: "Have you thought about what to name the fleet, Elizabeth?"
In front of the cube, which shone brightly in her hands and seemed to be unconscious, Elizabeth reluctantly handed it back and asked: "It feels really wrong. What's the name of that big thing?"
After throwing the cube into the air and catching it steadily, Qi Jianqiu slapped his head and gave it a bad name based on his own knowledge.
"But because the movement he made outside the virtual realm was too small, the priests thought that the evil god was going to use the rift to come to the real universe, so they had to join forces to drive away all the forces on the planet, including the Sharp-Eyed Cult. Leave the empty Tianxixing No. 7 to us."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Elizabeth nodded and said with a smile that you have not yet received an order from your superiors to replace Vice Admiral Anya Panicka as the fleet commander of the Finn Habenis Squadron. At the same time, a commendation order for being promoted to Navy Lieutenant Colonel by two ranks was sent.
However, what surprised Aurora and made her confused was that the Minotaur fleet consisted of more than a hundred small warships. Lieutenant General Qi Jian served as the fleet commander, but he did not have enough qualifications to convince the crowd. How could Elizabeth serve as lieutenant colonel? What about the military rank commanding the fleet? Could it be your mother...
When she heard that the other party had used the Z-1 robot produced by the group several times during the war, the "Manta" heavy-duty mecha and other equipment, Aurora's lips twitched downwards slightly.
Faced with the question from his friend, Lieutenant Colonel Woodville quickly waved his hand and explained, and then dispelled the other party's doubts.
Glancing at the dimples on Elizabeth's face when she smiled, Aurora nodded heavily and said: "This is not the Sky Assault Fleet anymore, bad name!"
