Him and their stars

As soon as these words came out, everyone started whispering. King Wilente added: "Everyone present knows that in the past year, at least 20% of the vicious terrorist attacks that have occurred across the galaxy have involved cyborgs, and even The existence of omnics. Now we should know the source of these impure things."

"Unclean things"? This statement is very similar to that of a Semitic cult. Yu Lian just wanted to roll his eyes.

"Yes, there is another blood debt for the World Serpent." Count Tardie agreed.

Well, the Count is the first traditional astral knight, a typical imperial warrior, a master psyker, and it is understandable that he rejects omnics. But you, King Valente, still have the character of a scientist.

As soon as this slander flashed through Yu Lian's mind, King Valente, who had a scientist persona, said again: "According to our intelligence, the robot organizations that are currently active in the galaxy include the Omnic Brotherhood, Digital Craftsmen, Union, and the Steel Doll Club of the Iron Army Union.”

"The last one is just a mecha driving club for Pallai people, right?" Yu Liandao said: "They are also planning to promote the Mecha Flying Wing Competition and the Sky Ball Competition recently. It can be said to be a combination of sports and technology. It is obviously for the whole universe. contribute to peace efforts."

Although the Palla people of the Iron Army Complex look like big, unattractive insects, they are generally considerate people who can get along with each other and are friendly to themselves and the community. Among other things, a nano-repair ship that is coming for reinforcements is the technology provided by the Palla people.

What's more, even if we only talk about the facts, the Steel Doll Club is indeed more like a club-like cultural promotion organization. It is hosting the first mecha sports competition in the universe - to put it bluntly, it is to drive a mecha to do some competition. Category. In this way, the ability of the "athlete" depends on the level of the driver and the performance of the mecha. Yu Lian is actually very interested in this kind of activity personally.

"Yes, so I will ignore the Steel Doll Club for the time being, and only talk about the latter two... they have been quite active recently! How many of their characters have violated the ban on omnics and prosthetics of the Galactic Civilization Council? They How likely is it that they are a peripheral organization of the World-Wide Snake?" King Wilent showed a diplomatic smile and said meaningfully: "I personally suggest that after this war, all countries should increase their control of these two companies. Review by Organizational Members.”

The same diplomatic fake smile appeared on Yu Lian's face, and his thoughts began to spin rapidly.

This so-called union of digital craftsmen, to put it bluntly, is indeed the vest of the Thirteenth Workshop. It has indeed gathered a large number of cyber-psychotic cybernetic terrorists. It is led by "Craftsman", one of the Thirteenth Faces. Naturally, it can Considered one of the peripheral organizations of the World Serpent.

However, the Omnic Brotherhood is different. To put it bluntly, it is a mutual aid organization of a group of cyborg engineers and mechanical experts, and later became an academic organization. The current leader is Mr. Trend, and the leader thirty years later in the other timeline is Mr. Summers. In Yu Lian's memory, they are all heroes who are capable, responsible and have three views.

In addition, the fraternity's vest is the Engineers Guild, and it works well with my friends. At present, the Engineer Guild has opened three branches, namely in Lumina, New China and New Yumen, all of which are on the territory that my... er, my friends are managing.

So, this guy is obviously here for me? Yu Lian glanced at King Wilente. But what's the point?

Before Yu Lian could think of anything, Yani smiled and said: "I don't have any objections to the "Omnic Management Treaty", but I still have some immature opinions on some of the terms and data of the "Prosthetic Body Management Treaty". However, It is best to bring this kind of matter to the Galactic Civilization Council for discussion in the future. In addition, we also need to seek advice from the Ethereal Temple and the Curators Association. However, we all know that all changes in laws are necessary time, not to mention international law?”

There is nothing wrong with this. The time required to amend international law has always been a metaphysical issue. When the army of marauders poured into the New World crazily, it took several months for a mere "New World War Readiness Limited Convention" to be discussed, negotiated, quarreled, and finally revised.

King Wilente showed a slightly apologetic smile: "Indeed, I am off topic this time."

Then, everyone started checking accounts again... ah no, working on intelligence.

"Although our intelligence personnel only had a short window of time, they still sent in the starry sky scene at that time." The count waved his hand, and the empire's technical officer projected a high-definition starry sky map.

"The original picture is a bit blurry. We have gone through technical processing, but there may be errors. So, we sought help from the Star View department." Count Tardie said: "According to the analysis of the Star View officials, it should be here In a star field.”

Then, there was an imperial officer who looked very elite and was very good at star map operations. He drew a shadow on the star map of the spiral cross star field. Of course, it has indeed deviated far from the known mainstream channel.

At this time, some alliance officers also marked the Black Reef 312 system in red and connected the red dots with the shadows.

"We have prepared a thousand survey eyes. Each survey eye has a wide-area starry sky exploration method, and will conduct a non-stop search of this line." Alliance Fleet Commander, a Nirvana named Yoren The Diaargonian general said.

The Survey Eye may be the best autonomous reconnaissance aircraft of this era. The search range, observation accuracy, terminal computing power, cruising speed, endurance, and protection level are also excellent. Of course, the cost will be even higher.

Yu Lian still couldn't help but look at Miss Bei with a calm look.

You know, last year, the New China Star District Government sold iron and steel and even took out loans to buy 12 Sky Survey Eyes from the Alliance at a friendly price. In the previous battle against the Star Planters, these automatic reconnaissance units made great contributions.

And now, the alliance actually took out a thousand pieces at once?

"It's a high-level military meeting, pay attention to your expression management." Yani read the words directly into Yu Lian's head, while she sat upright with no expression on her face, without even a flicker in her eyes.

Does this sound familiar? Where did you hear it coming from?

"Surveying Eyes? A thousand?" Yu Lian also responded with words.

"This thing is very useful. When the Snake Den uses the cruise Noble Phantasm to open the gravity well, it will cause an obvious air shock. We only need to capture similar signals."

Indeed, such a big "Death Star" still uses the black technology of the Enlightenment to jump left and right in the "dotted line" from time to time, as if it allows the gravity well to sustain the pain of breaking (meow) melon (woo) , completely ignoring whether the nearby galaxies can bear it, and it is normal for them to leave traces.

Anyway, the design drawing of the snake den has been restored by this fox. By the way, the radiation and aerial seismic data during abnormal cruise can still be restored.

...But that’s not the point!

"I mean, a thousand...you only gave me twelve."

"It's for your partner, not you. I've said it before, if you want it, I'll give it to you, and if they want it, they have to settle the score." Yani said seriously: "Besides, these are alliance military equipment, please don't mess with them. Can you describe the situation as if I was throwing money at people?"

"So it's actually the Alliance military that's using money to kill people?"

"Well, this is a very effective tactic." Yani looked like she was not ashamed but proud.

It is indeed very effective. I also loved Qiankun Yidian back then, but it was a bit unworthy of the taxpayers of the alliance. Yu Lian thought.

The alliance's technical officers were eloquently explaining their plan: "We now have the design drawings of the Snake Lair in our hands, and we are currently working on the weaknesses of the Snake Lair based on the design drawings. However, when operating such a huge space facility, It will leave residual signals. A thousand survey eyes will open a dragnet and lock the prey's movement range to the maximum extent."

He then explained in detail to everyone the specific organization and scope of action of these more than a thousand survey eyes, as well as the star fields they would search. Through the color expression on the star map, it can be seen that the star field that is shaded by the empire and the tens of thousands of surrounding star systems will be included in the scope of exploration.

It's hard to say whether the snake's lair can be discovered, but it is estimated that the big pirates active in the Spiral Cross Nebula will face disaster.

Of course, although this guy's introduction was very detailed and professional, he always introduced the performance of the Sky Survey Eye intentionally or unintentionally. I accidentally thought he was a promising salesman selling products.

However, considering that the Alliance will never sell the most advanced military equipment to the Empire. Therefore, this should only be understood as a special form of Versailles.

"However, in this way, your army's exploration scope will expand to one-third of the Spiral Cross Nebula. An exploration of this scale cannot be truly seamless. If you explore for a year and a half, you will still not find the target. , what should we do? Do we, the coalition command, have to spend ten or eight years with the world-wide snake?" Yu Lian decided to be a qualified compliment to the big bosses of the empire and alliance.

Moreover, he did have many questions about this battle plan.

"No offense intended. Even if we find the snake's lair, how can we pursue it?"

"Current intelligence shows that the speed of Snake Den is far less than the average speed of our fleet. We have the most advanced fast warships gathered here." An alliance officer said.

"Your Excellency, it's possible that you don't have confidence in your own battleship. I did hear that this new dreadnought ship uses many new technologies, but it has not experienced actual combat. It is understandable to be cautious." An imperial officer added with a kind expression. But the malice in his tone was particularly clear.

"Speed ​​is never absolute. Otherwise, your army would not have been tricked by Admiral Luckner." It was not Yu Lian who said this, but Brigadier General Tovey, who had been listening. He was talking about battles during the Revolutionary War. At that time, a squadron led by Admiral Luckner carried out an attack mission on the empire's supply line to the earth. After destroying a large number of imperial supply ships, it even rushed directly into the empire itself.

The empire mobilized a large number of dragnets composed of fast battleships, but it was never able to catch the leading guerrilla warfare master of the contemporary era.

The imperial officer had nothing to say, and many of his younger colleagues around him also showed angry looks.

Yu Lian didn't expect that this old captain, a disciplinary committee member, also had such a tough side. However, there was no better time for him, his deputy, to say such words.

Yu Lian ignored the expression on the other side and continued: "The Spiral Cross Nebula has been the home of the World Serpent for a long time. It holds a large amount of waterway information that we know nothing about. Even if the snake's tail is temporarily exposed, it can still grow with us. Time to play hide and seek, or even set up an ambush. You wouldn’t think that the World Snake has no other trump card, right? What if they can solve all the big pirates and fight guerrillas with us? If they have a way to control the Leviathan swarm in space, Where are the fleets that attack us? Everyone, there is no shortage of naval fleets that have fallen into the Spiral Cross Nebula in history. A thousand survey eyes cannot guarantee that the battlefield will be transparent."

Yu Lian's words caused a brief silence on the scene, until Yani showed an enigmatic smile with pearls of wisdom in hand, and opened her mouth lightly: "This is indeed a problem."

Seeing everyone looking at her, she smiled and said: "In the past, even if we used 10,000 sky patrol eyes, we would not be able to truly guarantee the safety of the warning circle. But gentlemen, times have changed. The universe is still vast, but sinners cannot always rely on the gift of the spirit of the universe to cover their tracks. This is the progress of the times."

There is a saying that although the white-furred fox is extremely smart, it should not be like the Riddler. However, again, in diplomatic situations, some things can be said casually, and some things are better left to others to say.

Sure enough, after pondering for a moment, the King of Valente on the opposite side suddenly burst out into laughter like a hero: "That's it, Ms. Berencaster! I understand, in order to completely cut off this threat to thousands of people who are causing harm to the universe, Years of monsters, I will apply to the Privy Council to obtain the permission to fire the Emperor's Staff as soon as possible."

Yu Lian understood something immediately.

Amida Berenkeist opposite also showed a bright smile: "That's right, since the Snake Den is hidden in the Spiral Cross Nebula, they operate more than one base here. What you just said The Omnic Factory of the Thirteenth Workshop is one. Even if our survey eyes fail to detect the snake den for a while, they will definitely be able to find these targets. So, please feel free to open fire."

Sure enough... Yu Lian wanted to hold his forehead.

"Our combined fleet is here, in the Black Reef 32 system." Yani pointed the jade finger at the red point on the star map: "This is located in the main channel, and our fleet often trains here, or performs operations Escort mission.”

"Occasionally there will be some friendly exchanges." Yu Lian added.

"Yes, it's just friendly exchanges." Sitting on both sides of the long table, the distinct officers of the two armies simultaneously showed exaggerated smiles and bared their teeth.

"In this way, we don't have to risk entering the unfamiliar interior of the nebula to fight guerrillas with pirates and the minions of the World Serpent." Yani said with a smile.

"Destroy all the galaxies where the World Serpent's stronghold is discovered?" King Wilente asked.

"No, destroy all galaxies with remnants of the Snake Den navigation signal."

King Wilente sighed: "I must remind you that each attack of the 'Emperor's Staff' requires some time to charge and prepare. Otherwise, how about asking your 'Miss Yulian' to go out together?" ?Two are better than one.”

"Miss Yulian is still undergoing overhaul. New weapons are always so bad." Yani said with a smile: "But it doesn't matter, we can afford to wait. Once the Colossus launches an attack, the pressure will go to the other side."

"Can this really force the World Snake out?"

"The pirates and smugglers will force them out. It's not just the World Snake family that calls the Spiral Cross Nebula their home."
