King of the Stars [Rebirth]

When Griffin stepped onto the bridge of the winged ship again, the adjutant greeted him anxiously: "Your Excellency! Your injury..."

"It's okay." Striding to the front of the main screen, Griffin squinted his eyes and stared at the star map in front of him. Blood mixed with sweat wetted his induction decompression suit.

A few seconds later, he reached out his hand to the lower right of the star map: "They are about to change formation, the defense here is weak, rush out!"

The order was conveyed immediately.Griffin didn't mean to sit in the captain's chair as a decoration, but just stood there in front of the screen, commanding the deep space fleet to break through.The battle just now exhausted all his physical strength. Although the tip of the light gun did not directly penetrate the cockpit, the neurons were in a highly coordinated state, and the damage suffered by the mecha would also be reflected on the driver.This is neuron damage belonging to the knight. If it is not treated in time, there may be some stress sequelae.Not to mention the large and small traumas during the escape.

Now he can no longer maintain that appropriate "noble" appearance.Strands of blond hair stuck to his forehead, the blood around his lips hadn't been wiped clean, and even the back tightly wrapped by the decompression suit had clearly visible wounds.Blood streaks dripped down the cloth onto the smooth deck, making it even more shocking.

However, such an embarrassing appearance did not shake his expression a bit, but became more calm, like an ice crystal in the deep cold state of the universe, exuding a biting chill.

"The three ships on the right wing move closer to the center, maintain a reverse cone shape, and increase the speed. Send a team of fighters to open the coordinate gap, and the wing ship's main guns are warmed up, and they will be launched in 30 seconds!"

Order after order is like flowing water.Griffin's calmness also affected all the generals on the bridge, and the panic no longer spread. Although the fleet suffered heavy losses, it did not really hurt their vitality.Most of the fleet led by the Liao Ship completed its turn, and slowly shrank its formation under the hostage attack of the enemy troops on both wings, breaking through the encirclement net in one fell swoop.

"The rear wing changes formation, anti-bow. The two wings reduce the speed. If the opponent catches up, give them a carbine." Looking at the enemy's formation that began to be scattered due to the pursuit, Griffin immediately ordered the formation change.

However, as if they knew his trap in advance, those stragglers only rushed for a few quarters, and then stopped one after another, returning to the tight network structure.

Finally getting rid of the enemy's pursuit, the adjutant came forward again dutifully: "Your Excellency, our army has safely withdrawn from the enemy's encirclement. Please go to the medical warehouse and receive treatment immediately."

Griffin glanced at him, but did not answer, and asked instead: "How is the war on Star Nader?"

"Ten minutes ago, the main star was occupied by the Star Fleet." The adjutant's voice was a little heavy. They completely failed in this war.This is also the first time he has suffered failure after following this "son of gold".

Griffin didn't even blink his eyes, and turned his gaze to another location on the star map. After a while, he said, "Where is Heijin Port? Is there any garrison?"

The adjutant's expression brightened, and he immediately replied: "There are only three spaceships blocking Heijin Port, do you want to occupy Heijin as a strategic base?"

This is also a way. Even if it suffers a big defeat, the deep space fleet still has a considerable number of warships, and it is no problem to control a free port.If they occupy the black gold and ask for help from the Federation, it will only take a few dozen days to reorganize the fleet and launch another challenge.After all, it will take a lot of time for the group of pirates to devour and digest this territory, and they still have a chance to regain the situation.

However, his eyes stayed on the small port for a moment, and Griffin shook his head: "There is no need. I have completed the order issued by the military department, and I will return to the voyage immediately after resting outside the star system."

"What?" The adjutant couldn't control the surprise in his heart, and blurted out.But he quickly shut his mouth again.No one knows the decisiveness of this boss better than him. As long as Colonel Oswald decides something, it is difficult for anyone to change it.It's a pity that such a big battle ended up like this in the end.It's all those damned pirates!

"I'll give you a day to get the fleet back on track." Ignoring the adjutant's tangled expression, Griffin turned and walked towards the fast lane.

The man's pace was not very fast, as if he was trying his best to maintain his demeanor, and he was shaking a little in the heavy. The adjutant only glanced at it, as if he had been burned, withdrew his gaze, and shouted to the first officer: "Take an inventory." Battle damage situation, we are ready to return!"

Leaving the bridge that made people's shoulders tense, Griffin's footsteps became more and more heavy, even a little staggering.The pain was like maggots on the tarsal bone, entangled in his body, almost breaking his will.Even so, he did not go to the medical room. Instead, he supported the disabled body, walked slowly to the spare apron, took an ultra-small spaceship without any markings, and drove towards Heijin Port.

10 minutes later, the port reappeared in front of me.The prosperity of yesterday was like a passing cloud. Several spaceships were moored in satellite orbits, closely monitoring the airport, and no one could enter or exit from here.This is military control in wartime, and it is also the best solution to prevent chaos in the rear.

Perhaps the group of pirates has not yet gained control of Heijin Port, but at this moment, it is not easy to get in and out from under their noses.Griffin stared at the small, black planet for a long time, but never approached it.His state could not escape the monitoring of those spaceships, let alone take the person he wanted to take away from here smoothly.

If he leads the fleet to come, of course he can break the defense of Heijin Port, and even take this free port as his own.But no one can control the direction of the flames of war. Maybe in the offensive and defensive battles, the people he wanted to protect were affected by the flames of war and lost their lives.Perhaps the band of pirates will retaliate and destroy the free port.He couldn't bet on that man's life.

Now, the only safest way is to retreat and leave the border galaxy.

Looking at the planet one step away, Griffin finally lowered his eyes.The spaceship landed at the airport without a sound, and disappeared into the night sky just like those fleeing smugglers.

■

Something inside is burning.It was like the flame directly invaded the brain, scorching his soul.A few minutes later, the flame started to turn cold again, turning into extremely cold ice, piercing through the abdomen and piercing the bone marrow.Alternating hot and cold, from hair to toes, raged in his body without any sign of stopping.As if being torn apart by two giant forces, Yan Beichen's body trembled, but he could not yield to this force, he wanted to regain control of his body!

Gradually, the storm in the body became clear.Yan Beichen discovered that it was two strange cores rioting.The sea of ​​air, which was scorching hot and warm, is now becoming bitingly cold.And the once cold and clear spiritual core turned into hot lava.This does not conform to the law he has studied for several years. Is it a change brought about by overloaded combat?

With no time to think, Yan Beichen gritted his teeth and moved the cores of the two groups, trying to smooth out the violent restlessness, but his energy and blood did not listen to his command at all, and spun around his body crazily, like a beast being put on an inappropriate shackle, struggling to think To backlash.The impact was so violent that even his consciousness became blurred. At the moment of life and death, Yan Beichen suddenly stopped everything.After a few short breaths, he reversed the original blood flow!

This is not in line with the essence of the Yan family's ancient methods, and there may be serious hidden dangers that will take his life, but at this moment, he can only have a chance of survival if he restores the two cores to their original state!

Soon, the restless qi and blood began to squirm slowly, gathering bit by bit to form a flow, retrograde in the veins.That taste is absolutely unpleasant, like a steel knife scraping, every inch is painful.But the cores of the two groups are slowly returning to calm, and the hazy light groups reappeared, retrograde along their respective tracks, and gradually approached.According to the previous rules, the two cores would stop near the heart, like a permanent and indestructible binary star system, pulling each other and restricting each other, nourishing his body with the power like stardust.

However, today, the light group did not stop. On the contrary, they seemed to have discovered each other's traces for the first time, crossed the unknown barrier, and bumped into each other with a bang.

Yan Beichen's body trembled suddenly, and he opened his eyes.Through the azure blue nutrient solution, I saw a fuzzy ceiling.Is this the medical cabin of Qunxing?He propped up his arms vigorously, and sat up from the medical cabin.

"You're finally awake." A cold electronic voice rang in my ears. Although there was no ups and downs, the word "finally" still revealed the speaker's emotions.

Yan Beichen stepped out of the medical warehouse, ignored the spilled nutrient solution, and walked directly to the crystal screen: "How is the battle going?"

"The Fierce Dragon successfully captured Star Nader, and the Federation fleet left the border and officially returned. Congratulations on becoming the new king of the border. Of course, without me, these three days are enough for your territories to change hands several times." Little Campbell rarely used a humanized description, and his tone was a little smug.

Yan Beichen froze for a moment, then suddenly asked, "I've been in a coma for three days?!"

"That's right. Next time you pilot a mech, don't forget your limits. Wait, where are you going?"

Ignoring the artificial intelligence's chatter, Yan Beichen had already rushed to the airtight chamber, and soon, a small boat sailed out of the Qunxing and headed for Heijin Port.Of course, Little Campbell can appease Barnett and the others, and even help him take charge of the territory he just laid, but it can't replace itself and keep the agreement with Griffin.

Three days is enough for many things to happen. This is wartime!A faint uneasiness swayed in his heart, Yan Beichen did not delay even a second, and quickly drove into Heijin Port, but in the hotel where the two lived together, on the street where they were separated, in the empty square with no decorative background , In all the places he could think of, he never found that person.

Half an hour later, Chu Nan received a video message: "My lord? Why are you in Heijingang..."

"Go and find someone! Find out where he is now!" Yan Beichen didn't say any nonsense, and passed through Griffin's image.

Before the war, he specially sent Chu Nan to take over the defense of Heijin Port, because he was afraid that the war would spread here.Under the monitoring of the Youying, no one can leave or enter, which ensures the safety of that person to the greatest extent.

Chu Nan was stunned for a moment, but didn't say much, and obediently closed the crystal screen.A few minutes later, the message came back: "My lord, there is no sign of this person in Heijin Port. I have used both ground and satellite monitoring. He should have left here..."

"Impossible!" Yan Beichen categorically rejected this answer, "Look up the information before you took over Heijin, I want the records from that day!"

"That..." Chu Nan swallowed hesitantly. "At that time, Black Gold's defense system was completely destroyed, and it was repaired the next day. No records were left during the period..."

Yan Beichen didn't expect such an answer, and after a few seconds of stunned, he turned off the communicator.

Did Griffin leave Port Heijin during that time?Or they stopped at the airport for a few days and left sadly after being unable to contact themselves.He didn't expect that he would be in a coma for such a long time because of the fierce battle, and he didn't expect that after returning from victory, he would lose track of that person again.

The joy of revenge and the joy of victory, at this moment, became dull.However, he still has a whole fleet and a huge frontier territory to manage.Even losing shares seems extravagant and useless.

Taking a deep breath, Yan Beichen put aside the empty and dark street behind him, and boarded the spaceship again.Goal, Nader Star.
