King of the Stars [Rebirth]

Chapter 71 The Son of Gold

Auston strode on the long corridor leading to the captain's room. This is a main federal battleship. Although it does not reach the constitutional level, it is enough to disdain most ordinary frigates. Only senior officials at the general level can command it. .However, as a warship of this level, the decoration on this ship did not present the dignity it should have. There were no exquisite carpets, no complicated virtual images, and even reliefs were not drawn on the ceiling, just simple alloys. The deck, almost reflecting figures.

Civilian vulgarity.Just a few minutes after boarding the ship, Auston's heart was full of ridicule and contempt.Only those illegitimate children who grew up in a remote second-class star and have never experienced an orthodox aristocratic education can be so vulgar in the details of life.

Being arranged by the family in the deep space fleet this time was something that Auston never expected.Everyone knows that the border is muddy.It was the forefront of new territories and the front line of the border with the Freedom Covenant, and no one wanted to be left behind when it came to occupying territory.Therefore, all kinds of interests are entangled in the vast starry sky on the border, which also disturbs the unrest in that wild area.It's just that the Oswald family has devoted more energy to the western border over the years, which has allowed other families to gain the upper hand on the border.

Now that the problem in the western frontier has been resolved, is the dispatch of the deep space fleet at this time a signal that the First Family is preparing to regroup the border areas?Auston didn't think so. If the Golden Family really wanted to gain the upper hand, they shouldn't have sent a boy with only five years of military experience as the fleet commander.

It was just a sacrificial victim.And he should grab more benefits for his family.

With a little arrogance that was inevitable, Auston stood outside the captain's room and knocked on the door.Soon, a mediocre-looking adjutant opened the door, took a step back, and made a "please" gesture.Auston didn't even look at the commoner, his eyes swept across the same rough room, and he looked straight at the desk.

He froze there.

A man who didn't match the style of the ship was sitting there.A handsome man.Wearing the most common navy blue federal uniform, without any flashy decorations, and did not pose any intentionally.The man just lowered his head slightly, leaning over his desk to review the documents.The bright light shone on his golden hair, flashing a faint halo, like pouring gold. His fair skin was smooth and clean, with a glaze color, which was more delicate and delicate than those priceless porcelains.Just a glimpse of the side face is perfect and fascinating.

Alston had seen the man's video, more than once with his own eyes.Materials, videos, and remote communications, but the impressions that have been deepened countless times still cannot offset the shock of the first time he faced a real person. He even stopped breathing for a second.The disturbing emptiness and vulgarity of the room suddenly became unimportant, and even had a sense of appropriateness.Because the man sitting there is the most luxurious work of art, any extra decoration is burdensome and pretentious, completely unworthy of such a unparalleled face.

As if he had just noticed someone coming in, the man who was working with his head bowed raised his head, and looked over with a pair of green eyes.There is no temperature, no kindness, no human weakness or emotion, it is cold and clear, with a chill down the spine.Just like the double-faced lion in the family crest of the Oswald family that has been preserved for countless generations.

In an instant, Oston suddenly woke up, tensed his back involuntarily, closed his heels together with a "snap", and gave a military salute.

"Major Sardin?" Griffin put down the crystal screen in his hand and asked coldly.

"Auston Satin is here to report. Your Excellency, Captain." Already completely forgetting the noble etiquette originally planned, Auston insisted on using the military rules to reply.

"Very good." Emotionless words spit out from those thin lips, "As the second-in-command, you and the two formations you lead will stay on the flagship and assist me in combat."

What?Although he was thrown into disarray, Auston was by no means an idiot.According to the original plan, he should occupy a battleship, pinch the flagship from the side, and take the opportunity to disrupt the battle situation.Not trapped on the flagship, under surveillance.But seeing the man's cold gaze, Auston swallowed his words again.This is an opportunity. Disobedience on the eve of the expedition will only make people easily kick him out and replace him with other forces.Having been reduced to the Deep Space Fleet, he can no longer be despised and lose his last chance.

Gritting his teeth tightly, Auston replied, "Of order, Your Excellency the Captain."

Those bright green eyes turned around him, like a bloodthirsty lion staring at its prey. After a few seconds, he looked away: "Go down and change defense. I'll give you two days."

There was no extra nonsense, no aristocratic greetings, just cold orders and sharp treatment.Auston took a deep breath, gave another military salute, and strode back.

It wasn't until the bland door closed again that the cursing under the teeth overflowed: "Fuck, this bastard!"

He is a descendant of the Sardin family, even if he is not a direct descendant, he is also a veteran family that was once located at the apex of the Landa star field.Among the nobles who are full of hypocrisy and tenderness, no one dares to have such an attitude towards a Sardin, even those big men in the military department, no one would be so rude.But just now, he was completely suppressed by that little Oswald, and his official title and net worth came second. That person's cold and sharp attitude was the only reason why he couldn't move.

Only now did he remember the series of honors hanging behind that handsome young man.It only took two years to put down the largest pirate group in the West Frontier, wiped out more than two thousand bandits, suppressed the rebels on three planets, and secretly repelled the forces of other star regions entrenched in the West Frontier.It was precisely because of this bloody feat that he was promoted to colonel in just five years, only a short distance away from a real general.

After once again calming down the chaos on the border and annihilating the power planted by the fifth family, will he be able to ascend to the throne of major general?A 23-year-old federal major general!What's more, that kid still has the title of the first knight assessment, a standard federal god of war!

The "Golden Son" born from the "Golden Family".

It was unclear whether it was anger or embarrassment churning in Oston's chest. He looked angrily at the empty corridor and strode forward.Even if there is no family mission, he will not let this kid embrace the god of luck again.Although there is no ship, but on the flagship, he will have many opportunities to show his skills. There are also those little nobles who have been placed by the military, each of them represents the power behind them.This is a real pile of loose sand, and no one can rely on loose sand to win!

Not even that Oswald!

Resuming his superior aristocratic demeanor, Auston straightened his military uniform and walked towards the bridge.

"Your Excellency, Major Sardin probably has some connection with the Fifth Family." After closing the door, the adjutant Donald who had been guarding the captain's room said softly.Although he is not an aristocrat, he also understands the disputes among the aristocrats. It is obviously not the best plan to keep an enemy on the flagship.

"I know. Not only Satin, but also those other people will all stay on the flagship." Griffin replied coldly, picking up the crystal screen on the table again.The purpose of the Deep Space Fleet this time is not pure, and Satin is an ally of his good brother Vesal. Of course, he is aware of the sinister mystery hidden in the personnel arrangement.But he had no choice of retreat.there has never been.

Donald was obviously taken aback, but seeing the other party's cold face, he closed his mouth again.After three years with this Oswald, he has learned when to speak up and when to shut up.

"I want more detailed information about the information around Star Nader. Especially this force." With a swipe of the fingertip on the crystal screen, a warship appeared on the screen. It was a remodeled warship, without the patterns commonly used by pirates. Marked, the darkness is like a dark spot in the starry sky, exuding a strange pressure.

Donald recognized the ship with just one glance, and nervously swallowed his saliva: "Your Excellency, we can't find any more detailed information about the Constellation. Their rise is too fast, and they are almost swallowing up many dark lines on the border. .”

"They're thinking about Star Nader." Griffin interrupted the adjutant's words, and ordered, "Pay close attention to the movements of these pirates and report back all the information."

"Yes!" Donald replied immediately.

Griffin glanced at the man standing beside him with a tense expression, and looked away.This is already the adjutant he has used for the longest time, and his response is not very quick, but his loyalty is better.Loyalty is the most difficult resource for him to obtain now.In the entire federal army, he is the officer who uses the most civilians. From deputy, staff to combat captain, there are countless civilians directly promoted from the army or localities.Even so, he couldn't completely trust these people.

No matter how simple a person is, it is difficult to maintain the original color after being pulled into the dyeing vat.Although they were born in the Federation, they have not really received the baptism of high society. When their status and status are promoted, their ambitions will also expand.Choosing loyalty is a journey of thorns, but choosing betrayal requires only a cold shot from behind.Not everyone can stay sober in front of this temptation.

Fortunately, there are still some useful people around him.

"Notify Luke and Ban that for this attack, the wing ships must keep a proper distance and highlight the position of the flagship, whether it is charging or defending." Griffin dropped the final order.

Donald was stunned for a moment, this is not the formation that should be used when going deep into the border.With a flash of inspiration, he suddenly wanted to understand the intention of the captain's previous layout.This is to sacrifice the flagship, so as to eliminate those forces that are holding him back!Can you win with only the Liao Ship?The panic was only for a moment, and he calmed down again, and gave a military salute with a snap: "Yes, Your Excellency."

His military service is not very long, nor does he have much military talent, but there is one thing Donald knows better than anyone.The young Oswald in front of him has an amazing talent for war. As long as he makes a decision, it has its meaning.Trusting him and obeying him is your bounden duty.With the same awe as always, he stepped lightly and exited the empty room.

Griffin didn't look at the adjutant who was cautiously leaving the captain's room. His eyes returned to the crystal screen, and he stared at the dark battleship for a long time.Maybe it was the same stupid bunch of vain pirates like the ones he'd killed.But now, it has become his few remaining opportunities.A means of breaking the game.

asterisk.What an unpleasant name.The handsome eyebrows frowned slightly, Griffin put aside those unrealistic associations, and continued to bow his head on the strategic star map on the desktop.
