Galaxy Game Reserve

"Shuster standing in front of you is actually... a dead man." The old man's voice came from afar.

Alger opened his eyes abruptly, sat up, stretched his aching neck, and then realized that he had returned to his home.

He went to the window sill and drew the curtains.

Outside, the sun was just right and the sky was bright. He raised his wrist to confirm the time, but found that the wrist was empty. Then he remembered that the terminal device had been thrown into that corner.

This trip was in vain, and Charles told Huster his whereabouts, which ruined his trip. In the end, he only got one sentence, which is ridiculous. If Huster is dead, then the one who is lazy at home Who is a person, how can he have such a complete memory, you must know that the human body can be copied, but the soul cannot be copied, and the memory personality cannot be copied.

The back of the head was still dull pain.

He went downstairs and Dio was playing a game.

Alger hurriedly changed his clothes and went out again.Dio found that Alger was always busy recently, and he didn't even have time to say hello, so he went out again.

Today is the day of Li Jieming's research and report. The things he left behind were handed over to the relevant research institutions.However, originally this matter had little to do with him, but Hathaway also mentioned the Kester before she died.

According to Li Jieming's research report, among these two groups of battleships, there is a reverse world looking for a part of that thing.

However, Huster did not inform Alger about attending today's meeting. It seems that Huster has been hiding many things from him since Hathaway's funeral.

He couldn't help but think of what Dr. Edgar said before he fell into a coma. The person standing in front of him was already a dead person.

This sentence was like a magic claw, clutching him tightly.

Why did Dr. Edgar say that?Recently, he was not even notified of the analysis meeting on the Plux and Kester.Alger intuited that perhaps what Schuster concealed was directly related to the Kester.

However, Alger has many old departments in Gaia and has a wide network of contacts.He took part of the information he had on the Plux and Kester, and visited his former maintenance engineer, Colonel Kyle.

Captain Kyle has served on the Plux for many years and has a good understanding of these two battleships, but his position is not high and he cannot participate in high-level decision-making.

When Alger visited, he handed over the existing information to Colonel Kyle, and the two optical brains immediately projected the entire structure of the Imperial Gemini battleship.

Just looking at the battleship in this way, I didn't find anything unique, and I couldn't find the two things mentioned in Li Jieming's report.

"Although all the weapons, cabins, applied material specifications, and energy sources are very advanced, there are other warships, and the Koster has also crashed. If there is something that Master Li Jieming mentioned, it should be Stay." Lieutenant Colonel Kyle said to Alger.

Alger pointed to the holographic projection of the Kester and said: "The crash of the Kester occurred in 6021 during the Gaia-[-] moon guard battle. Do you have any records of the battle at that time, for example, the Kester in the military archives?" Is it recorded by the black box of the Stester? Or where can we find some clues."

Lieutenant Colonel Kyle said, "No."

"How could there be none?" Alger asked rhetorically, "Almost every battleship in the empire has a recorder."

Lieutenant Colonel Kyle recalled: "I remember I went to take a look at the Kester, which had just been brought back by the salvage ship. The cabin of the Kester was completely destroyed, and only a part of the frame was preserved. That part later entered the military museum. It’s just that the skeleton is very strong, as if it was processed from a crystal ore.”

Alger began to recall that battle, trying to find some clues from that battle, it was the bigger one among the countless battles he had experienced. "All the cabins were destroyed? The Koster? No, I still remember that battle. Two queen-level worms besieged the Plux, but the cabin was still intact."

"And we were busy breaking out at the time, and didn't notice what happened to the Kester. The integrity of the Plux does not prove that the Kester is also intact." Lieutenant Colonel Kyle said.

Alger frowned: "I still remember that warships were constantly seeking support, and we didn't expect that there would be emperor-level worms. So can we simulate our battle situation at that time now? How could the Kester Has it been destroyed to that extent?"

Lieutenant Colonel Kyle moved the position of Plux, he said, "We were on the north side of Gaia-4.5's moon, about [-] light seconds away. At that time, the two empress-level worms were on the north side of the Gaia-[-] moon. In the front and directly behind, there are other worms distributed on the left and right sides, so it can be said that we were completely surrounded at that time." The optical brain designed several models of worms and displayed them on the simulated battlefield.

Alger added: "Before the war started, I remember that the Kester was on the right side behind us. The distance was about 3000 meters. When we were besieged, we couldn't care about that much anymore."

Alger was trying to recall that battle. It was indeed an extremely tragic battle. He couldn't remember how it ended in the end. It can be seen how tense the situation was at that time. He stared at the simulated battle not far away. On the Kester, his heart began to pound, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. The scorching air and the constantly trembling battleship made it almost impossible to sit still, and explosions sounded again and again.

In the panic, the captains of all parties sent distress signals.The red dots on the screen representing the disappearance of one's own warships, and the sound of sirens that the Plux is constantly being attacked.

"Help us, General."

"Help me."

"I don't want to die yet——"

"What is that, ah,———————————"

"Salute, the energy of the General Sealie is exhausted———, Yake Granger can't go back—, please take care of my family—————— Long live the Empire———"

"Four Helen-class destroyers crashed——, thirteen teams of Poseidon-class aircraft——lost contact."

"Plux No. [-] bulkhead breached."

"The Thunder-class aircraft carrier group is completely destroyed———"

So many voices were intertwined, the news of death kept coming, and the number of casualties kept rising.And he couldn't even get out of the encirclement.

"Alger, Alger, can you hear my voice?" Among so many messy messages, a very familiar tone suddenly appeared, mixed with the rustling sound of electricity, but it made Alger who was about to fall into despair , suddenly woke up.

"Understood, is it Schuster? What's the situation on the Koster? We're surrounded by Queen-level worms here, so we can't see the actual battle outside." Alger replied.

"We're going well here, the reinforcements are coming soon, you're holding on for a while."

"I'm afraid the Southern Crusades won't last long, and I'm afraid they will disappoint you."

"Cheer up, compared to the scattered Southern Crusades before, this is already very good."

"After 5 minutes, you let the Plux rush out from the front, abandon the command room, and retreat to the central bridge. Join the reinforcements."

"Wait, why don't you use the video terminal, what's wrong with you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Alger, call me by my name, or say something, honey, I'll wait for you."

"Your Highness, don't mess around."

"Hey, just comfort me, I am the hero who accompanied you through life and death, otherwise no one will accompany you in the future."

"Shuster, be careful in the future, I will report to the future Crown Princess."

"Don't be so serious."

"Goodbye, Your Highness."

"Alger, wait, wait, I want to say a few more words to you."

"What time is it now, Your Highness, there is no time to chat, the battle is over, it's fine to talk with you all night!!"

"You really only have to fight! If I die, will you be sad?"

"You have asked me this question no less than fifty times. Don't ask such impossible things again. See you, Your Highness."

"Cut off communication. Advance at full speed, extend the protective layer to the maximum, stop the artillery fire, and notify all the remaining fleets to evacuate in the direction of Gaia and join the reinforcements. Now the others abandon the command cabin and retreat to the central bridge."

That voice gave him strength that moment of desperation, and later when the Plux broke out of the encirclement.

The reinforcements who came told them that the Kester had crashed.Just behind the direction they rushed out from, the Kester intercepted the attack of the emperor worm.

"Your Excellency, your complexion doesn't look very good. Do you want to take a rest?" Lieutenant Colonel Kyle said, bringing Alger out of his early memories.

Alger shook his head, and said, "Use your interpersonal relationship to help me ask, who are the survivors on the Kester?"

Lieutenant Colonel Kyle got up to make tea. He said, "It's been such a long time ago. Actually, there is no need to rush to investigate. Your Majesty and the others can find out what Master Li Jieming left behind."

"No, that's not the case, Kyle. I want to know what happened on the Kester right away." Alger took the black tea that Lieutenant Colonel Kyle handed over.

"Okay, wait a minute." Lieutenant Colonel Kyle put down his black tea, walked a little further away, opened the terminal communication device, and found a person. After he said a few words, he changed from a calm expression at the beginning to A look of surprise gradually appeared, and finally turned into a kind of heaviness. He turned off the communication, returned to Alger and sat down.

Alger's hands trembled unnaturally, and the porcelain cup of black tea hit the saucer, making a slight crisp sound.

Lieutenant Colonel Kyle rubbed his hands and said, "No one survived, except Your Majesty."
