interstellar fairy tale

On December 29, [-] in the Galactic Calendar, the space fleet of the Golden Empire will soon return to the capital of the empire, the Golden City. The coronation ceremony for the new emperor Soran Edrich will last for half a month. After returning to the capital, the fleet will The officers and soldiers still had the opportunity to celebrate, and the officers and soldiers who regretted missing the coronation of the new emperor became more and more eager to return home.

Compared with these imperial soldiers who were about to return, Shang Ping, who was being held on a transport ship at the moment, was in a different state of mind.Unfortunately, there were only 56 of the original 18 Mars people left, and the remaining 38 were killed while waiting for an opportunity to escape.Shang Ping respects the courage of these people, but he can't admire this kind of behavior that only relies on bravery and is completely unaware of his own strength.Of course, Shang Ping only dared to think in his heart, and he couldn't say it no matter what, otherwise, his peers who had received Mars' iron-blooded education since childhood would immediately strangle him, a coward who "betrayed the Mars spirit".

However, among the rest of the people, Shang Ping unexpectedly met Zhou Ting, a friend of the same period in the Madoff Military Academy who graduated half a year later than him. Entered the fighter unit of the No.12 Fleet, and Joseph also entered the unit at the same time. Unfortunately, Joseph died in the previous battle, and Zhou Ting was also captured like Shang Ping.For his depressed friend, Shang Ping didn't know whether to comfort his luck in life, or to worry about his future captive life together.

"Shang Ping, what are you thinking?"

Sitting next to Shang Ping, Zhou Ting experienced the flames of war, which made the boy who was nicknamed "Princess" in school also smell of gunpowder.

"It's nothing." Looking at the dinner plate in front of him, Shang Ping had to say that the treatment of the captives by the Golden Empire Fleet was good. At least, their three meals were guaranteed.And after the previous reckless escape failed, there was nothing else except changing to a tighter room.

"I'm not used to these things."

Zhou Ting looked at the bread on the dinner plate, pieces of unknown meat, and some brightly colored vegetables, and put down his fork.

"Although it doesn't look very good, it still tastes good."

Shang Ping indirectly reminded Zhou Ting that as a prisoner, he really has no qualifications to be picky. Besides, it is estimated that the people in this transport ship still know some eating habits of the Muse Galaxy, otherwise, the only thing in front of them is It will be a couple of nutrient capsules and a glass of water.

These soldiers of the Golden Empire don't seem to have any interest in diet. As long as they can maintain their daily body needs, whether the food is delicious is not in their consideration. At least Shang Ping has seen Solan Edrich eating over this capsule.

In comparison, the people of the Muse galaxy who still kept the eating habits of the Earth era, even the most rigorous and simple Mars people, seemed extravagant and wasteful.

However, if Shang Ping could know the difference between the living habits of the Golden Empire during wartime and peacetime, he would never have such an idea.

"Sure enough, people who have been caught once have good adaptability."

The hostile words came from another captured soldier. Shang Ping didn't seem to hear it. He just continued to eat his lunch, eating every bite carefully, and the expression on his face didn't change at all.Zhou Ting looked at Shang Ping, seemed to understand something, stopped talking, picked up the bread, and took a bite.

"What? Are you guilty? You coward!"

It seems that Shang Ping's timidity and cowardice, and his verbal attacks are constantly escalating. The irritability, fear, and confusion about the future since he was captured have found a breakthrough. Attacking his comrades who fought side by side with vicious words.

"Oh, that Colonel Edgar who ran away with his tail between his legs is your adoptive father, no wonder, he is equally cowardly and cowardly! Shame on Mars!"

"Enough!" Zhou Ting finally threw the fork over angrily, "Shut up!"

Zhou Ting's anger irritated Black even more, and two or three people around him seemed to be ready to move.

Shang Ping finally finished eating the last bite of vegetables, wiped his mouth, pushed the plate aside, stood up, walked up to Black in a few steps before everyone had time to react, and punched Black hard on the face , and then pressed Black to the ground with his elbow, and held the fork in the other hand, the sharp and sharp part was only a few millimeters away from Black's eyes.Looking down at Blake, who was obviously stunned, one corner of his lips curled up, but there was no smile in his black eyes.

"What are you going to do?!"

The people around Black reacted and wanted to rush over, but Zhou Ting stopped him.

"Your name is Blake, isn't it?"

Shang Ping opened his mouth in a leisurely manner, seemingly unaware that as long as he exerted more strength with his hand, Black would immediately go to see Madoff White, whom he admired the most.

"Blake, as an adult, you should know that some words can be said, and some words can't be held, right?" Shang Ping deliberately added some strength, and was satisfied to see the other person's face turn blue, "A reminder, At this moment, your identity is the same as mine, a prisoner! If you are as brave as you say, why don’t you die with those guys?! Yes, I cherish my life, but this is not something you can use There is a reason to attack me! Besides, you have no position to attack the commander of a space fleet! Without him, everyone will die! Do you think that these guys who captured us used laser cannons and particle cannons Going to attack Kanon Fort just to say hello, how are you?"

Shang Ping's tone was not high, even very calm, but the tense atmosphere in the room gradually disappeared because of his words.

Black still stared unwillingly. If he could speak out at this moment instead of being pinned down by the neck, he would definitely refute Shang Ping loudly, but he didn't have this opportunity.

"I would like to remind you again, Blake, as a prisoner, you must be conscious. Instead of venting your worthless complaints and grievances on me who is also captured, you should think about how to go back and go back to Mars. ! Go back to your own home! There must be relatives waiting for you in your home, right?"

Back to Mars?go home?

"Can we go back?"

This sentence was said by another soldier who had been silent from the beginning until now. Compared with Black, he looked lifeless, and the food and water in front of him had not been touched at all.

"you ask me?"

Shang Ping seemed to have heard some funny joke, looking at the people in the room, "You don't think I can give you the answer, do you think who I am, God?"

"Shang Ping..."

"The only ones who can save you are you! However, if you continue to blame yourself like this, or give up on yourself, then even if there is a god, it will not be able to save you."

Shang Ping finally let go of Black, and the latter immediately coughed loudly while clutching his neck, looking at Shang Ping with a hint of fear mixed with resentment.

"What, do you want me to really break your neck? Or do you want me to poke your eyes out?"

Shang Ping raised his fork to make a gesture, and Black immediately turned his head, and his body trembled uncontrollably.But still unwilling to say: "You are sophistry, making excuses for your cowardice!"

Shang Ping laughed softly, Zhou Ting patted Shang Ping's shoulder worriedly, "Are you okay?"

It was a pair of dark, almost bottomless eyes that answered him. The darkness disappeared in an instant and returned to clarity, but Zhou Ting couldn't help but start to feel chills down his spine.

This is, Shangping?

Or did he never really know the boy?

Due to the influence of the previous black hole, the fleet encountered a little trouble when doing the space jump, Harlan?Edrich listened to the suggestion of the engineer captain, and after entering the empire's star field, he chose a supply star to stay for a short time, overhauled some warships, and then returned to the capital.

The overhaul will not take too long, but it also makes these soldiers of the Golden Empire who are eager to return to their hearts feel a little impetuous.This little episode that happened among the captives was heard by the captain of the transport ship for some reason. The former captives escaped, no matter in terms of number or scale, they were insignificant. However, if the remaining dozen people dared to If he did this kind of behavior, then the captain of the transport ship would definitely not be able to escape the fate of being ridiculed by his colleagues.

"These incompetent aliens, can't they be more peaceful? Or they should all be executed."

Extremely disproportionate to his appearance, this captain with a face that could be described as handsome, but his catchphrase was a rude word that would make even well-educated soldiers frown.

However, Tessa was still a qualified transport ship captain after all, and he ordered the dozen or so captives to be separated and detained, at least, so that they would not be able to quarrel.For the fleet that was eager to return to the down payment at that time, this order was undoubtedly very reasonable, and more than a dozen captives could not cause too much trouble, but what Tessa did not expect was that this order would later let him Very regretful.

Within a few minutes of transferring these Marsians, six daring Marsians took the opportunity to snatch the guard's sidearms. If it weren't for these Marsians who would not use the guns carried by the imperial soldiers, then this The accident is likely to be an indelible shadow on Tessa's military history.

"Damn it! Kill them!"

Tessa was furious. Even though he believed that these captured soldiers had certain combat capabilities and could be transformed to serve the empire, these rebellious elements still consumed the last trace of Tessa's patience.

In the flagship, Harlan?Edrich heard the "little incident" that almost drove Tessa crazy from the mouth of the attendant, and suddenly he had the idea of ​​going to see these warriors captured from distant galaxies.Harlan was no stranger to these Mars fighters. He fought against each other twice. Although the battle was one-sided, the heroism of the opponent could not be erased.Moreover, Shang Ping's performance during the captive period also made Harlan very interesting. At least, Shang Ping was able to cut Giovanna's neck that time, which made the imperial royal family more interested in these captives. .

Excitedly stepping off the flagship, they saw a dozen Marsians who had been escorted from the transport ship.The six people who had acted before had been killed at that time, including that Blake.However, Shang Ping, Zhou Ting and others suffered a disaster.Shang Ping, who already had a premonition of his own destiny, could only hold Zhou Ting's arm tightly, and clearly felt the trembling of the other party. They could die in battle, and died heroically. However, this kind of irresistible killing still aroused human The deepest fear of the soul.If he continues to be imprisoned, Shang Ping will try his best to survive, and then try his best to escape. Given the current situation, these soldiers of the Golden Empire obviously want to kill them.No one can say indifferently that he is not afraid of death, because death is just around the corner.

Shang Ping began to seriously consider whether he dragged a few opponents to his back before he died.

Harlan's footsteps stopped, because among these people, he saw a familiar figure.

"Thanks to the god of luck, I will give His Majesty the emperor a wonderful gift."
