Human Light Umbrella

Looking at the imaging data, Case analyzed to Robert: "According to the current progress, the ground battle will end in twelve hours.

But it will take at least two days, or longer, to clear up the remnants of the covenant. After all, ground battles are not like naval battles.

If you don't want to lengthen the front line and want to continue to march deeper, it is best to apply to the superior for follow-up troops to take over from us to carry out the clean-up and stabilize the local situation. "

"I will apply to my father for reserve service, mobilize and deploy to the planets captured by us." Robert nodded in agreement, and said:

"Besides, our goal is not to annex the Covenant Empire, but to completely defeat their military power. They lost the capital and lost the highest command. Now they are just headless chickens, and the threat level has been reduced to the minimum."

As he said that, Robert turned his head to look to his left hand side, and asked in a raised voice, "What is the status of the other mixed fleets?"

Hearing this, a female crew member took her gaze away from the console and turned to report: "All mixed fleets are going well."

"Okay, report the situation on our side to the company, and don't forget to sort out the helmet cameras of the soldiers and upload them to the company."

"Yes, sir."

See Robert end the conversation with the crew.

With his hands behind his back, Case looked at the planet outside the porthole and said with emotion: "I never thought that humans who were still killing each other a hundred years ago can now unite to resist foreign enemies...

Times have changed, I'm getting old. "

At the beginning, it was precisely because he participated in the Gulf War and saw the ugly face of the army that he chose to retire on the grounds of post-war psychological syndrome (PTSD).

After being recruited to Umbrella by intelligence agents, Case regained his confidence and pride in the army and in humanity.

At the age of [-], he not only witnessed the development history of warships, but also experienced the transformation of human beings as a whole.

Hearing Case's emotion, Robert echoed, "The captain was joking, let's look at the next target first."

"haha okay."

The next two people returned their attention to the center console, called up the star map information provided by the city of fraternity, and made plans in advance to prepare for the attack on the next galaxy.

...

Shortly after.

Synchronized with the rotation speed of Harvest Star, it is parked in the exclusive cabin of the Anthem of Courage not far from the transportation hub.

The desktop of the fixed desk was cleaned up very cleanly. On the left side of the cabin, there is a virtual window showing a vast grassland stepping into the starry night, with subtle insects chirping.

suddenly.

"Shua~." A sound.

With the opening of the automatic door on the right side of the cabin, the virtual window screen is also automatically switched, gradually switching from late night to clear afternoon, making the dark space much brighter.

Sui Bian, who had just finished the video conference with UEG officials and UNSC generals, walked into the room with his two secretaries.

As he walked towards the desk, he took off his coat and handed it to Queen Bai, stretched out his tie, rolled up the sleeves of his black shirt, walked around the desk and sat in the fixed chair.

And without waiting for Sui Bian to say anything, Hong Hou, who was already standing on the left side of the desk, had already imaged the sorted materials on the desktop.

Bai Hou first hung his coat on the hanger not far away, then walked slowly to the right side of the desk, kept silent with his hands in front of his lower abdomen, and quietly watched the boss reviewing the battle situation of the "Counterattack Expedition".

'It went better than expected. ’ Sui Bian thought to himself.

As Rob said, the covenant empire that has lost its head is like a headless chicken, with colonial galaxies, fleets, and troops fighting on their own.

Coupled with the bloated and complicated system, the Covenant Empire is on the verge of total collapse, and now it is only the last "straw" to crush them.

thought here.

Sui Bian said seemingly casually: "The Red Queen, spread the confession of that merciful prophet, especially its face that would rather betray its compatriots than save its life, to the entire Covenant Empire through the communication system of the city of fraternity. .

Let the group of alien races clamoring to fight for the priests and my gods to see what the priests they worship and admire are. "

"Yes, chairman." The red queen agreed quietly, and within a few seconds, she replied: "It has been completed."

"En." Sui Bian nodded without saying a word.

As a religious empire, apart from using force, the best way to destroy them is to defeat their beliefs.

I saw that the priest who was originally supreme and "selfless" would betray the elites for power, and beg for mercy from human heretics in order to survive.

After learning that their lifelong pilgrimage is just a means used by the prophets to consolidate power, and everything is a scam...

Disintegration is inevitable.

In fact, at the moment when the City of Fraternity was taken away by Corax and Nova, the Covenant Empire existed in name only, and its core technology, military deployment, and territorial star map all fell into the hands of humans.

As soon as the war started, the covenant side had already lost.

The real purpose of the "counterattack expedition" sent by Sui Bian with five mixed fleets was to declare to the alien races that human beings are not something they can provoke.

After all, the existing human population cannot absorb more territories.

And the real killer move is the "self-destruct" of the Prophet of Mercy.

At this time.

"Chairman." The white queen, whose pupils flashed blue, took the initiative to say: "The predictable future of the covenant empire will be that there will be many warlords, pirates will breed, and it will fall into unstoppable chaos.

Military power, technology, and population will also continue to decline sharply. For us, the threat has been completely lost. "

"This is inevitable." Sui Bian raised his head and looked at Queen Bai lightly, and ordered:

"It's time for the Sangheili family, who have reached a cooperative relationship with us, to officially appear in the public eye. Organize and edit the helmet video uploaded by Robert, and let the world know the scenes of the Sangheili warriors fighting with our human soldiers."

"Okay Chairman, would you like to disclose the existence of the Inti Unancha Clan (Iron Blood)?" Queen Bai asked.

"To make it public." Sui Bian continued to order without any objection: "Notify Rebecca and Alexia at the Luna base to send the newly-adult reserve soldiers to the occupied area.

Also, update the company's and UNSC's combat systems as soon as possible to avoid the situation where grassroots soldiers need to use gestures to communicate with allies. "

"Ok."

After finishing the conversation with the White Queen, Sui Bian looked at the Red Queen and said, "Tell Robert and John to occupy the galaxy closer to our territory."

"Yes."

"By the way." Sui Bian asked again: "How long will it take for the Teutonic Knight to reach Harvest Star?"

"Estimated sixteen hours."

"it is good."

Done.

Sui Bian lightly touched the holographic screen on the desktop, called up the information uploaded by Leon and Magnus, and then turned on their helmet cameras.

play.

fast forward.

time out.

The screen is locked on the empty room on the top floor of the pyramid facility, and the memory storage body that is very similar to human beings in appearance.

Chapter 273 "Qiu Min" Empire

This look...

It is completely different from the pioneers in Sui Bian's memory.

In memory, the pioneer races of "Halo", regardless of gender, look at the face regardless of the figure, which is absolutely not in line with the aesthetics of normal human beings.

Moreover, in the reports of Magnus and Leon, it was deliberately mentioned that the Flood Demon has the characteristics of suppressing psionic energy. These all show that in the universe he lives in, the relationship between humans, the Forerunners, and the Flood Demon is worlds apart.

However, the specific situation still needs to wait for the return of the Teutonic Knight to know further.

Before that, Sui Bian's primary concern was the public's attitude towards the allies of mankind.

...

Earth.

In Raccoon City in the evening, the traffic is also at its most congested time. .

At the end of the working day, people leave their jobs, either go home directly, or hang out with friends for a while.

And this time.

A two-door, four-seater, red-painted streamlined airship shuttled over the most bustling neighborhood in the city center according to the channel, turned left, then left the channel to the right, and slowed down to approach a giant apartment building.

Immediately afterwards, the flying boat drove into the apartment through the entrance built in the middle area, and came to the parking floor dedicated to flying boats.

According to the guidance of the signal light, the flying boat parked in the liftable space.

Turn off the engine, and then open the "car door" of the butterfly wing structure. A female pilot with long wavy hair, wearing a white shirt and a long black skirt, left the airship with her satchel and headed towards an elevator waiting hall not far away. go.

The "car door" is automatically closed, and the flying boat is also sent upward by the lifting parking space to make room for other residents.

Afterwards, the female driver, who seemed to be only in her 20s and exuded an elite aura in the workplace, took the elevator to the 198th floor of the apartment.

Get off the elevator.

Walk on the carpet with noise reduction effect, come to the door of an apartment at the end, and put your left hand on the biometric sensor of the terminal to unlock it.

With a "beep~", the metal door slid to the right.

"mom!"

Before the door was fully opened, an eleven or twelve-year-old boy ran towards her excitedly.

"Oh, son."

The female driver changed her cold and glamorous face of a professional elite, and walked into the apartment as a single mother. While closing the door, she reached out and kneaded the boy's cheek, and asked softly:

"Are you hungry? Do you want to go out together..."

"Mom, come quickly!"

However, the boy interrupted the questioning, dragged his mother and hurried to the spacious living room.

?

Before the mother had time to change her shoes, she trotted to the living room with her child, only to see a 98-inch holographic TV playing a video of a fierce battle.

The words "Raccoon City Military Situation Meeting Room" are displayed on the upper right corner of the TV, and the video content comes from the helmet camera of an Auxiliary Army of the Extreme Legion.

The auxiliary army landed on the Yuou ship to the surface, and the moment the hatch opened, several blue-armored elites flashed from the right side of the Yuou ship, charging towards the city ahead that was different from the human style.

Subsequently, the auxiliary army also attacked with the troops.

During this period, the elites even took the initiative to stand in front, using energy shields to assist the humans in resisting the plasma cannons.

The video lasted just over 30 seconds.

After the broadcast ends, the screen switches back to a live broadcast hall of a talk show. The hostess in a rose red suit is sitting on the single sofa on the far right of the camera.

On the guest sofa on the left in the center of the screen, a retired major general in formal military uniform with medals on his left chest, and a biologist in a black suit are sitting in turn.

at this time.

The hostess turned slightly sideways, and asked the two guests: "This is a section selected by our program group among the many official videos released by Umbrella and UNSC. I don't know how Major General Zhang and Dr. Luo Er See the Sangheili race in the video?"

The major general surnamed Zhang was the first to reply: "The official intention is obvious. To be able to release this kind of video at a node where our army's frontline is going smoothly shows our attitude towards friendly alien races..."

Before the major general finished speaking, his mother turned off the holographic TV.

"Mom?" The boy was a little puzzled.

"Let's go, mom will take you out to eat." Mother deliberately changed the topic.

"But…"

"I'll take you to the shopping mall after dinner, I think...the shelves of the Mowan store should be new."

"I'm going to change clothes!!"

Hearing the key word Mowan, the boy changed his previous confusion and ran towards his bedroom happily.

"Ugh…"

The mother, who was smiling, sighed when she saw the boy walking into the bedroom, and walked towards the door without hiding her exhaustion and loneliness.

Her children have loved the universe since childhood.
