Harmonic Battleship Hyperion

In line with the idea that he would rather believe it than believe it, Renault decided to return to the New Odyssey base immediately... If the human defenders really made such a big commotion on the planet, it would be the new Odyssey next to him. Without their people, Sri might not even believe even a Thunder Beast.

He also considered calling Lin Yuan, who had an explosive individual combat power, so that it would not be a problem to control Neo Odysseus, but Tosh had a different opinion.

Sergeant Lin Yuan is the biggest target of the Human Defenders, friend Renault, maybe there are spies disguised as tourists operating near him now, you should not take this risk.

So, the person who came back with Renault became Tosh himself...

"Sir, may I ask who is the person behind you..."

"A field agent of the Rangers, who came back to report to me on a confidential mission, his authentication ID is not in the identification system, so you don't have to bother to compare it."

Renault's simplicity and directness made the Marines a little at a loss as to what to do, but they knew Renault's identity better, so they quickly gave way to the passage.

Besides, the appearance of this mysterious man looks like a ghost agent. Even if there is a conflict, I will be brought down by others in a few seconds...

"Do you understand the benefits of power and status now, Raynor?"

"I didn't ask you to come up to New Odysseus to listen to sociology, tell me where to start!"

"...the Armory would be a suitable choice."

Seeing Renault's performance like this, Tosh also gave up the oblique way of talking, "If I am asked to plan an attack, or even a rebellion, then first control the weapons and equipment."

"Yes, but first the brethren must be informed."

Until now, all the information about the Human Defenders came from Tosh... No matter how much Renault trusted him, he couldn't put all his eggs in one basket and immediately give an order to conduct a thorough investigation as the commander-in-chief of the empire. Otherwise, it would be fun if the soldiers mutinied But even bigger.

Therefore, his idea was to first gather the ranger members such as Harm who stayed in the base, and ensure that the Hyperion was used as a retreat before acting by ear.

It's not the way Renault likes it, but it's necessary.

The berthing bay of the Hyperion is much "cooler" than the day before, most of the rangers have already gone to Villitia, and the maintenance team originally scheduled will not start working in the first two days of the holiday... and If it's just the outer armor plate of the battleship, the technicians of New Odysseus are also fully capable.

But obviously, for some people, the holidays are not as interesting as tinkering with battlecruisers...

"Swann!? Why didn't you go to Viletia?"

After seeing the stout figure on the maintenance platform, Renault immediately asked in surprise.

"How can it compare to our Hyperion, besides, you're back now too, cowboy... Hey! Look who this is? A black warrior who has been missing for months!"

The informal Swan has always had the habit of giving nicknames to his companions. Since Tosh has fought with the Rangers for a long time, he can't escape... But in fact, he doesn't reject this nickname. .

"Hello, engineer."

"So Mr. Cowboy called you back? Or are you planning to take a vacation on Viletia too?"

Similar to ordinary ghost agents, Tosh was also rejected by the Rangers on the Huberian, until he used time to change people's perceptions, and offered to propose when Renault was imprisoned on the Moros prison ship. Infiltrating and rescuing... Although the Queen of Blades did it for her later, at least this kind of heart gave him approval.

Including Matt Horner, who was the worst at Tosh before.

As for Swan, it should be said that he was one of the few people on the Hyperion who could face Tosh normally.

"Your guess is in line with who you are, engineer, but unfortunately, you failed to guess right this time."

"Stop talking nonsense, Tosh, I didn't ask you to play charades... Swan, contact Harm and ask him to recall all the brothers who are still in the base back to the Hyperion, and be careful not to attract anyone's attention. "

Swan was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that there was something wrong with Renault's expression.

"No problem, Mr. Cowboy."

"Also, use the skills you cultivated in the port of the dead, don't tell me you forgot all about it."

In Port of the Dead, where there are a lot of eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, and eyes of all parties, the confidentiality of information is a must. After all, the rangers don’t want to just take over a deal, and the target location is set up by the empire first. Every time he goes there, Swan will set up some additional encryption methods to ensure that important contact information will not be stolen.

And as soon as the words came out, Swan also understood: Renault was serious.

He gave Raynor a reassuring gesture, then turned and walked towards the Hyperion.

"Do you need me to collect some useful information?"

"...Who are you eyeing again?"

"Of course the commander of this base, my friend."

The combat uniform on Tosh's body suddenly made a slight squeak, and quickly turned into a transparent color... Soon, he disappeared from Renault's sight, "Don't worry, if he is not a member of the Human Defenders , I wouldn't hurt him, but if it was the other way around...he might feel a little pain."

……

Lin Yuan, who was lying on the lounge chair, slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing I saw was the clear blue sky and some clouds floating in it, which gave me a sense of comfort.

This "inch of strength" is the feeling in memory... With this in mind, Lin Yuan straightened his upper body and began to look for the traces of the Valkyries.

Bronya and Yazhongxiadui's large sand castle is almost finished. With the help of the reloading bunny, the details and proportions are in place. Even if it can be described as a work of art, it has attracted many children on the beach. The sight of the children, but correspondingly, the faces of their parents turned pale.

Teresa and Wuliangta Himeko were standing on the edge of the beach where the waves were beating, and they were discussing something. Because the distance was a little far away, they couldn't hear clearly even with the use of psychic power. Kiana and Mei still disappeared, and they didn't know Are you crazy about playing in the sea?

And Fu Hua sat next to Yae Sakura, seeming to be making rice balls together, and at the same time talking about some ancient living habits... I don't know why, the two people exude an extremely harmonious atmosphere, compared to the awakened curious baby Yae Kasumi is more like a sister.

Hmm... suddenly I feel a little satisfied...

Lin Yuan collected himself, then stood up from the lounge chair.

"My lord, you are awake."

As if having a telepathic connection, Yae Sakura who was closest to him turned around and looked at him, "Do you want to try Sakura's rice balls?"

"food?"

"At least it's not poisonous, Lin Yuan, Ying made it for you with good intentions, so come here!"

Fu Hua's tone was still a bit unkind, it seemed that she still didn't forgive someone for pinching Ji Zi's butt, but at least she wouldn't jump up again.

Lin Yuan was silent for a few seconds, then walked over obediently and sat down...

The Valkyries didn't carry anything like a dining table. Yae Sakura brought all the materials needed to make rice balls in an incubator, and then took them out and put them on the unfolded tablecloth. It felt like a picnic.

As far as cooking skills are concerned, neither Fu Hua nor Yae Sakura can compare to Raiden Mei's "extraordinary talent", but if compared with ordinary people, they are still better than ordinary people, especially Fu Hua...even if they are not at all. Considering all the memories before the second Houkai War, she has lived alone no shorter than Yae Sakura, so she is definitely a person who "can go up to the hall and go down to the kitchen".

It turned out to be warm rice balls, Lin Yuan looked left and right, his expression seemed a little curious.

"...Sakura, why did you knead the rice grains into this shape?"

"This is a tradition in my hometown."

"A tradition about waste and boredom?"

Sensing the expression in Fu Hua's eyes that he loves to eat or not to eat, Lin Yuan quickly changed his words, "...I mean the rice balls are very pretty, and they should look delicious too!"

After finishing speaking, he stuffed the not-so-big rice ball directly into his mouth.

"How do you feel, my lord?"

"It's much better than nutrition bars. If it can supply the energy consumed by 48 hours of activities, BOSS should consider using these rice balls instead of military rations."

"In that case, Sakura will probably never be able to leave the kitchen."

Fu Hua grumbled dryly, and at the same time cast a sidelong glance at Lin Yuan, only to find that this guy seemed to be staring at the rice ball he was kneading intently.

Don't give it to you!

She sent such meaning to Lin Yuan with her eyes, and then found that the other party showed a slightly disappointed expression, and couldn't help laughing.

Why do you feel that teasing him like this is kind of fun...

At this moment, Qiyana's lively voice came over suddenly: "Wow! Look at what I found! The rice balls look delicious!"

Holding the surfboard in one hand and Mei in the other, the girl was running quickly from the direction of the sea.

Under the bright and non-glare sun, the pure and beautiful girl in a swimsuit had a cheerful smile on her face, her long white hair was raised behind her head, and tiny water droplets dripped from her delicate skin like creamy fat, forming a beautiful shape. An extremely beautiful picture...

Not to mention Lin Yuan, even Fu Hua fell into a short-term absent-minded state... because Qiyana's smile seemed to evoke something familiar in her heart.

Strange, have you seen Qiyana before?

"Mr. Lin Yuan, squad leader, Mr. Eight Greats."

Compared to the daredevil Kiyana, Mei has no shortcomings in terms of etiquette. She first greeted everyone separately, and then sat down.

"You guys spent two full hours in the sea?"

"What's wrong, Miss Ben has thoroughly learned to surf under the guidance of Mei!"

Fu Hua glanced at Mei, who was a little dumbfounded, and quickly determined that what Kiyana called "learning" should be her own understanding.

After wolfing down several rice balls made by Yae Sakura, the girl with puffy cheeks gave two thumbs up, and Mei's eating was more like a lady's, touching her mouth with both hands, taking small bites to taste.

A few minutes later, other people gathered together... Except for Ji Zi who was still a little afraid to look at Lin Yuan, the Valkyries all gave Yae Sakura and Fu Hua their sincere praise.

However, they also found that they didn't seem to have prepared anything to drink.

"Hmm...looks like we need an errand runner."

Teresa looked up at the pedestrian street behind the beach, "How about it? Do you want to draw lots? Anyone else volunteer?"

It's useless to ask this question, because Lin Yuan is very self-aware as a tool person, so without saying a word, he stood up and walked towards the pedestrian street.

Fu Hua struggled for a while, but in the end he still didn't get up, Mei really wanted to go with him, but Kiyana, who was eating with joy, stuffed two new rice balls into her hands.

The walking street is actually a few hundred meters away from the beach. After all, it is necessary to leave enough space for tourists to play... Most of the products sold here are snacks and souvenirs from various places in the Koprulu star area, and there are also Babavas, which have a strong taste. Zerg-themed restaurant.

Generally speaking, this place is always as lively as the beach. After all, eating and drinking is a happy thing no matter where you are.

But today, things don't seem quite right...

Because several marines wearing CMC power armor appeared on the pedestrian street.

"Um……?"

Lin Yuan frowned and walked closer, intending to see why these guys who were out of tune with the summer beach appeared here.

"Sir, do you know what's going on over there?"

He casually asked a stall owner next to him, "What are those Marines doing here?"

"What kind of terrorists are they looking for... These bastards are really looking for trouble, and all my customers have run away!"

terrorist?

It is not surprising that there are terrorists in Viridia. The vast universe will always make some people get lost in their own creed and become anti-social or even anti-life lunatics, whether it is the old Federation before or the Tyrann Empire later They have always regarded combating such people as their daily work, and Arcturus has also established a colony inspection team for this purpose.

The problem is that if you really want to hunt down terrorists, then if these guys stop here, isn't it equivalent to pointing at the target's face and saying "you run, we are coming"?

Which brainless commander gave such an order.

Just as Lin Yuan was considering whether to remind the Valkyries to be careful of possible riots after going back, he found that the marines seemed to have noticed his side and walked over.
