Starborn Zero II: Tales of the Dragonmen

Hearing this, Krause seemed to think of something, "Hearing my father mention the marriage reminds me of Admiral Manstein. Until now, I often hear my aunt talk about his childhood."

Rudolph hummed.Krause's uncle Essek is related to the Manstein family by marriage, and Krause often stayed with Kleedrich when he was young, so he knew him well.

"Speaking of which, you two are the same age, and you have been together since childhood..."

Before Rudolph could finish his sentence, Rhine immediately took over the words, "Kleedrich is very popular in the military, and many Alpha officers are staring at him. But he is not married until now, probably because he already has something in his heart." Someone you like."

Krause glanced at Rhine, and happened to meet Rhine's eyes, and the two looked at each other knowingly.

"Oh, that's right." Rudolph smiled. "Then I'll ask Little Clyde next time. I hope to attend his wedding in my lifetime."

After the chat, Rhine found an excuse to leave the banquet hall temporarily, and went to the bedroom on the second floor alone.When he entered the room, Dr. Denz had just taken the silver needle out of Kleedrich's hand.Rhine looked at the bloody silver needle in the container on the table, and then came to the bed and sat down.Kleedrich's right hand was wrapped with a bandage, and he was resting on the bed with his eyes closed.

Rhine stretched out his hand to the butler, and the butler immediately handed him the prepared wet square.He wiped the sweat from Kleedrich's brow, and his expression became more and more gloomy, which made Dr. Denz and the housekeeper afraid to breathe.At this moment, Kleedrich opened his eyes and saw that Rhine just wanted to speak, but the next moment he pressed his finger on his lips.

"Leave this matter to me." Rhine's voice was stern.

Clyderich nodded wearily and said nothing more.

Rhine leaned down and kissed his flushed cheek, "Rest first, I will come to accompany you at night."

The Alpha pheromone smell on him is very attractive.Kleedrich tried his best to restrain the impulse in his body, and grabbed Rhine's hand with his left hand.He looked him in the eyes, pleading with what little reason he had left.

"Don't tag me, please..."

"I won't mark you until I can grant you your title."

Only then did Kleedrich let go of his hand, and closed his heavy eyelids again.

Rhine stood up immediately and watched the butler give the order, "Take care of him like you take care of me."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Nicaea galaxy, red giant star

At 06:30 in the morning, Jean came to the command room of the mothership.On the holographic screen, a dark blue planet appeared in front of him.Rodney and several researchers stood by the screen and gave him a military salute.

"We are now outside the atmosphere of the asteroid Nicaea B-11. The planet's climate, temperature, and geographical conditions are suitable for biological reproduction, and 99.95% of the planet's surface is covered by liquid water. In the flight explorer sent this morning, it has been found that Signs of activity of medium-sized creatures."

"Medium-sized creature?" Gene opened his chair and sat opposite the screen, "Is it a mermaid?"

"From the images recorded by the explorer, it is not a humanoid creature."

Gene raised his eyebrows, "Call it out and have a look."

"Yes."

On the holographic screen, a video shot from a low altitude began to play.Under the clear and white clouds, there is an endless azure blue water world.On the surface of a blue-green sea that seems to be gathering warm currents, many small flying fish jump up and down on the water surface one after another.Their bodies are as small as loaches, and their wings are thin and transparent like dragonflies, with patterns painted on them.

At this time, a black shadow gradually appeared on the water surface, and then a huge creature jumped out of the water, opened its mouth and cut off several flying fish in the air.The creature looked like a dolphin, with jagged, sharp and spectacular fins on its back, and a long, pointed, unicorn-like sword-like horn on its head.

"What's that?" Gene asked, frowning.

"This is a sword-horned dolphin, which is classified as a cetacean mammal in the empire's biological database. According to the existing records, they are social social animals, and their IQ is as developed as humans." A researcher replied.

"The IQ is equal to that of a human being?" Gene looked at the researcher in surprise, "Then they should have noticed that the explorer flies so low?"

"I'm afraid so." The researcher nodded.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Gene slapped the table and stood up, "Any creature may be a suitable stabilizer material. The mothership lands immediately, ready to hunt biological samples."

"Yes!"

An order was issued in the command room, and the mothership immediately started its engine and began to land on the surface of the planet.As the hull enters the atmosphere and passes through the thick white clouds, the boundless water world gradually unfolds before the eyes.According to the scanned temperature map, Jean designated a location where warm currents converge to land.Because such places are usually the richest in biological resources and most prone to large predators.

The mothership activated the surface landing system and floated on the sea like an ordinary aircraft carrier.The door of the mecha hatch was opened, and two submarine-style underwater catchers were launched first, followed by ten soldiers driving the mechas into the water, looking for traces of creatures.

Gene came to the mech cabin.The door at the end of the mecha chute was open, and outside was the endless sea.A gust of salty sea breeze blew by, giving people the illusion of being on vacation by the sea, which made Gene's heart itch.

"Let's swim in the water too." Gene came to Nightmare's feet.

"I think a pair of swimming trunks is more suitable for you than me at this time." Nightmare's tone was very arrogant, and she did not open the door leading to the cockpit.

Gene couldn't help laughing.He likes to tease this kind of haughty tone the most, just like he had a good impression of Ig's second-ship Fritty at that time.

"Don't make trouble, baby, no one in this universe is more suitable for me than you." Gene leaned against the door and said with a smile.

"In that case..." The door suddenly opened.

Gene whistled and stepped easily into the cockpit.Just after connecting to the neural docking device, Rodney's voice was heard from the mecha communicator.

"Captain, the environment here is unfamiliar, you can't go by yourself. Wait for me to go with you."

Gene rolled his eyes.Originally, I was annoyed to death by that orc's clinging to me these two days, but now I have a nagging one by my side, and the rare good mood will collapse in an instant.

"Go wrap that tailed one, don't follow me!"

Immediately after the roar of the engine, Nightmare rushed out of the mecha slide and entered the water, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

"Captain, wait...ship..."

Rodney watched Nightmare leave, sighed deeply, and had no choice but to turn on the communication to contact the soldiers working underwater, "Nightmare has entered the water, pay attention to protect the captain."

After he finished contacting, he came to the residential floor alone.As soon as he walked into the corridor, he saw Mo coming out of the room, looking for the trace of Jin.

"The captain is on a mission. Don't run around, wait until I bring you food, okay?" Rodney learned his lesson this time, and discussed with him first.

Mo blinked at him, approached him slowly and carefully, and suddenly wrapped his tail around his ankles and flicked vigorously.Rodney suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground.Mo immediately loosened his tail and fled the corridor like a rabbit.

"Hey! Hey! What the hell... stop, where are you going!"

When Rodney got up and chased out of the corridor, he was already gone.

Mo ran out of the living cabin in one breath, relying on the traces of Jean's smell in the air, he came all the way to the mech cabin.When he saw the water world outside the mech slide, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Wow!"

He came to the door at the end of the slide, knelt down and touched the clear water.The water felt cool and refreshing to the touch, so he scooped it up with his hand and took a sip, then immediately poohed several times in disgust, spitting out the salty and astringent sea water.Suddenly his movements stopped, and his head slowly turned to look at his side.In the water not far from the door, a huge sword horned dolphin was watching him.Its eyes were full of hostility, and its sharp horns pointed straight at Mo, as if it was about to rush over in the next moment.

Mo blinked, "Who are you?"

The next moment, the gaze of the sword horned dolphin completely turned into astonishment.This alien alien in front of him is actually using the ultrasonic waves that can only be emitted by their own race to communicate with it.

Red Giant Star, experimental area of ​​the habitat

Rodney walked into the experimental area, where a huge tank was being formed.This is for live samples of captured sword horned dolphins.A researcher saw that Rodney looked a little tired, and kindly handed him a cup of hot drink.

"Didn't you take a break?"

"It's okay, I'm just a little tired." Rodney smiled politely.

Before he could take a sip of the hot drink, there was a sound of footsteps coming from far and near, and then he saw Mo rushing into the experimental area and running towards him.Rodney tactfully put down the glass immediately, and just as he expected, Mo rushed over and almost knocked him to the ground again.Mo grabbed his clothes, with a anxious face on the verge of tears.

"Jean, Jean is in danger, they want to kill Jean..."

"Wait, don't worry, speak slowly." Rodney motioned for him to take a deep breath to stabilize his emotions like coaxing a child, "What's going on? Who wants to kill the captain?"

"Those fish, they said that we violated their territory and wanted to drown Gene to show the public." Mo choked up and grabbed Rodney's clothes, "Hurry up and save Gene!"

"The fish told you, didn't they?"

Rodney only felt a little more tired in his heart, and sighed weakly, "Don't be afraid, I will make them into dried fish later. By the way, speaking of dried fish, are you hungry? Let me take you to dinner, okay?" ..."

Seeing that he didn't believe it at all, Mo started to cry anxiously, shaking Rodney's body desperately, "Jean will die, you save him, save him!"

Rodney was so shaken by him that he looked hopeless, knowing that the other party couldn't understand, he could only bite the bullet and explain, "Don't worry, the surface of the mecha is waterproof, let alone the S-class mecha like Nightmare. It's impossible It is impossible for the captain to be drowned if the water enters. But I am almost shaken to death by you..."

The researcher beside him burst into tears with laughter, "You are an orc, do you know what a mecha is..."

"But the fish say that their fish acid will corrode from the light hole of the defense mask, just like a biological weapon..."

"That's right, Yu said that the light hole aperture of the defense mask will be..."

Rodney suddenly stopped in the middle of repeating, his eyes gradually widened and looked at Mo, "How do you know that the armor's defensive mask has light holes?"

"The fish said..." Mo choked up and wiped away his tears.

Rodney's face changed, because this was indeed the reason why ordinary mechs couldn't resist biochemical weapons and needed to be equipped with biochemical weapon masks.He began to realize the seriousness of the situation, and then took out the communicator to send the whole ship communication.

"The personnel working in the sea are in danger, all staff gather!"

The author has something to say: According to what I said before, the first week will be updated, and the next chapter will resume every other day.Continue to beg for onlookers, crabs.
