The hours seemed so long that it seemed centuries had passed.On the ground of the cockpit, there was still a small puddle of blood. The Phantom decomposed proteins to synthesize blood suitable for mermaids, and slowly infuse it to the comatose mermaids.

Alger used the water synthesized in the body to gently wash the red and wrinkled baby's body.Holding that little baby, Mu Ran felt that everything was ridiculous. He thought that his life was weird enough, but he didn't expect that there would be something even more ridiculous now.

If he wasn't an OMEGA mermaid himself, then Phantom wouldn't have his own proteins without inhibitors. Without those proteins, two lives would be lost today.

"The blue shark rescue ship called Lieutenant Alger. We have arrived, please land on the bridge, please land on the bridge."

"Instructions received." Phantom replied for the exhausted Alger. Alger was set on automatic navigation, and Phantom's body landed into the ambulance and returned to the base safely.

The bridge of the ambulance and the base have just successfully docked. A group of mermaid doctors have already prepared the floating hospital bed and waited on the bridge.

Not only was Alger carrying a mermaid on his back, but he also held a small one in his arms. When he got out of the cockpit, he was once again startled by a group of mermaid doctors staring at him.

As soon as Alger landed, the group of mermaid doctors rushed to pick up the child and the mermaid.Alger suddenly felt relaxed all over, but his eyes suddenly went dark. Fortunately, he was quickly supported by Lieutenant Colonel Raul.

"Are you OK!"

"fine"

Seeing the group of people leaving around the mermaid and the child, Alger quickly stood up and extended his hand to give a military salute to Lieutenant Colonel Raul.

"The subordinate successfully completed the task."

Lieutenant Colonel Raul saw that he also had a tired look on his face, so he said: "Go and rest first, and come to me after rest."

"My retirement report is ready and I want to give it to you now."

Lieutenant Colonel Raul said: "Go and rest first. If you don't rest, I won't approve your official retirement. Go."

Alger stood upright, gave another military salute, and followed his comrades back to the dormitory.

However, a bunch of comrades around him kept asking him what that mermaid looked like and whether it was particularly cute, and then admired their squad leader, who, apart from his good driving skills, actually delivered the mermaid.

Alger gave this group of annoying comrades a lesson, and finally calmed down the surroundings. This quietness immediately filled him with drowsiness. He covered the quilt, drew the curtains and immediately fell into a coma.

This time he had a sweet dream, dreaming that he was back on Lucia, the frontier planet of the new Milky Way galaxy alliance, where he bought a house and kept two dogs at the door. their laughter.

If you want to ask what Alger's highest ambition is, it is to get a sum of money after retiring from the military, and go back to Lucia to buy a two-story house and a field. He has been thinking about this plan for 13 years. This time it finally came true, he laughed out loud in his dream.

Alger had a restful sleep, and it was almost noon when he woke up. "Oops, morning training." He suddenly remembered that he must have been tired of delivering that mermaid yesterday. That was really a matter of energy and energy that was more exhausting than going to the front line to kill alien worms.

But now it was completely different from someone calling him up in a hurry like usual, and Alger suddenly realized that it really was because he was about to leave the barracks in two days.

And everyone tacitly agreed with each other that he only wanted to leave some precious memories among his comrades in the last few days in this military camp. This can be regarded as a kind of tacit tenderness among comrades in arms in the past 13 years.

All of a sudden, Alger felt a little bit reluctant to let go of these guys who had been together for 13 years, but he couldn't let go. His life plan was absolutely not allowed to be disrupted. Thinking about it, when he opened his eyes in the future, he could see the success A piece of food, life is stable.This resentment faded away.

Alger turned on the optical computer on the bedside table, and sent the report of his application for retirement to the office of Lieutenant Colonel Raul. It seemed that no one responded for a while, and Lieutenant Colonel Raul must not be in the office.

He glanced at the time on his brain again. It was time to eat, and he suddenly felt a little hungry.Alger got up and took a refreshing bath, put on his military uniform, and casually walked to the cafeteria of the base.

The more he walked towards the cafeteria, the more he felt something was wrong. The people he met on the road were usually nodding acquaintances, but today some actually stopped and gave him a military salute, which made Alger feel like returning The illusion of the past.

But at this time, the cafeteria turned out to be completely dark, which was very unusual.Alger was very puzzled. When he took the first step into the cafeteria, the lights suddenly turned on, and there was loud applause from all around, which made Alger dizzy for a moment and couldn't tell where he was.

Lieutenant Colonel Raul walked over first, and held his hand with a very excited expression: "Lieutenant Alger, the promotion order has been issued, the mermaid you saved is one of the three major legions of the Western Galaxy Holy Empire. Spouse of the head of the Crusaders, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic is very satisfied with your performance."

The Holy Empire of the Western Galaxy is one of the most powerful snobbery in the Milky Way, and it is also the country with the widest star area. Whether it is military or economical, it is completely incomparable to the Assyrian Republic where Alger served. This is like the country in the solar system. The huge gap between Pluto and the sun.

The Assyrian Republic often needs relief donations from the empire to barely maintain its development. At the same time, almost all Assyrian mechas are purchased from the arms dealers of the empire, and it has no research and development capabilities at all.

And the military of the Holy Empire of the Western Galaxy is the most complete in the galaxy. Among them, the three major legions are the elite divisions of the empire's military power. A nobleman of the empire.

Among the three major legions, the Southern Cross Legion is the legendary legion that has never had a defeat against alien worms, and is the legendary ever-victorious legion.

"Please wait, Lieutenant Colonel Raul, I don't understand, I'm just waiting for you to approve my application for retirement." Alger emphasized his application for retirement again, obviously he didn't intend to buy these people's account, On the contrary, he felt that these people were very troublesome.

The lively atmosphere around suddenly turned cold because of Alger's words, only the sound of a few metal plates falling to the ground was heard, and some people looked at Alger like a fool, the monitor of Blue Shark Class B, who never It's a wonder.

Lieutenant Colonel Raul looked at his subordinates who were so happy that they couldn't tell the situation clearly, and said, "Are you happy and stupid? I can understand that you don't have to retire now. The document directly instructing you to be promoted to major has been officially delivered to I'm in the office."

Alger's smile froze for a moment. He didn't want to stay in the army at all. He just wanted to enjoy family happiness with his children before they grew up. He really had enough of the thrilling days.

"This..." Alger felt very embarrassed.

"Lieutenant Colonel Raul, let me tell you. First of all, in my personal capacity, I would like to thank you very much for saving my spouse and beloved son despite the danger. I originally brought my lover with me because I was worried about my lover during my visit to the Assyrian Republic. , my lover gave birth early, so I had to send her back to the imperial capital planet Gaia first, but I never expected that the spaceship would be attacked by insect swarms halfway, fortunately, Lieutenant Alger rescued me and made my family safe, thank you very much.” Said After finishing, the tall and dignified officer in front of him stretched out a hand to Alger.

Alger shook hands with him, his eyes dodged slightly, and he followed the rumored legion commander to the temporary podium.

Only then did Alger realize that there were actually quite a few reporters standing behind his comrades-in-arms. He suddenly had the urge to run away. Facing the frequently flickering light, he had a very bad feeling.

At the moment, in front of him is the commander of the Southern Crusade who is talking to the reporters. This high-ranking commander is closely following his old boss, Lieutenant Colonel Raul, and behind him is a row of Dressed in a black military uniform, the majestic personal guard of the commander of the Southern Crusaders.

Even if he wanted to run, he might not be able to. Alger was like a deflated balloon, which could be described as drooping his head.

He just wanted to yell at the people around him. I never thought that the mermaid was going to give birth. It was an order from the superior to save your mermaid. I just followed the order. I don’t need to be promoted. Pension, go back to my hometown to farm.

But when the words came to his lips, he had no choice but to put on a smile that he thought was very good, and facing the reporters who rushed over, he said: "I am only following orders, and protecting the OMEGA mermaid is our duty as a soldier. I don't think I should be rewarded alone for this kind of thing. If any mermaid has difficulties, we must come forward. This is what Lieutenant Colonel Raul often taught me, so this recognition should not belong to me alone, but to her. All the Assyrian soldiers. Moreover, our country and the Holy Empire of the Western Galaxy are friendly neighbors, and we should help each other, not only for ourselves, but also for the prosperity and stability of the galaxy."

Lieutenant General Raul once again looked at Alger dumbfounded. It has been 13 years, and he didn't realize until today that this strange creature is quite suitable to be an official spokesperson.Or Lieutenant Alger shouldn't be a soldier, he is good in politics.

The head of the Southern Crusade, looking at Alger, also slightly changed his eyes. He didn't think this person was good, but he found it strange that what he said seemed to be evading the matter of promotion. He would definitely be very happy with the award of two consecutive promotions, but this person doesn't seem to care at all. On the surface, there is nothing wrong with this statement. Outsiders sound like they are just flattering their boss, and they are humble, but after careful consideration, it is very intriguing.

Let me first say that it is right to protect mermaids. This sentence alone will indeed cause social reactions. Once the protection of mermaids should be rewarded and become a topic of public opinion, the military's reputation among the people will inevitably be adversely affected!Alger just described this kind of behavior as an obligation, and vaguely blamed the empire for protecting the mermaids. The latter us included all the comrades who accompanied the battle this time, all of which accused the empire of doing something wrong. To be fair, only reward him.And those speeches that are the same as diplomats all day long will only make the media feel tired. If such words are sent out, no one will pay special attention to today's matter.

Why, why is this person doing this?The dark gray eyes of Gabriel, the head of the Southern Crusaders, fell on Alger thoughtfully, and this person's name also reminded him of someone.

Alger was propped on the stage with one hand. Although his body was not strong, he was extremely tall and straight. Every word was resounding. He could develop a matter according to his own meaning after just a few words. Gabriel's eyes lit up. The back figure overlapped with a person he was familiar with.

Black military uniform, golden medal, and red cloak, the former General Alger Edward gave a speech like this when he led young officers like them to inspect the military negotiation major of a military academy.

This is his habitual little action, and what he said at that time was exactly: "Language is sometimes a weapon of soldiers. It can be better than thousands of troops without bloodshed."
