Chapter 414: Strange Army Deployment
"Captain Song, you know that our relationship with the military is a bit strained.
We can't just go to any frontline battlefield and participate, right?
Let's not talk about whether the regular army corps on the frontline will find an excuse to hinder military affairs and not let us participate in the battle.
I'm afraid they will shoot us from behind after we go to the battlefield!"
Shooting from behind is just a metaphor made by Liu Cheng, after all, he is now a fourth-level superpower.
Even if he doesn't do any defense, ordinary kinetic bullets can't penetrate his skin.
Song Ziming also knows the difficulties Liu Cheng and his team are facing now, and said:
"Fifty thousand alien creatures are just symbolic terms to constrain you to support our Veterans Alliance.
If it is really because of the guest's privacy that both of us fail to complete the task, I will not really hold you responsible."
Liu Cheng and others understand what Song Ziming means.
This is equivalent to Song Ziming not maliciously making things difficult for his own company, but reserving the right to pursue responsibility.
Song Ziming changed the subject and continued with a smile:
"Besides, our Veterans Alliance happened to take a job recently, which can definitely guarantee the target of killing alien creatures within a period of time.
Are you interested in coming to investigate?"
Seeing Song Ziming showing such a smirk that he hadn't seen for a long time, the bad memories in the minds of Liu Cheng and the other two were evoked.
Liu Cheng asked:
"What job?"
Song Ziming said:
"I will send you a location in a while, just find the location and come to me.
If you are satisfied with the on-site inspection, we will formally sign the cooperation contract in person."
Seeing that Song Ziming was keeping it a secret, Liu Cheng and others did not continue to ask.
After shutting off the communication, Augustine said to the three people:
"Then let's discuss this meeting here first.
Fu Yan, Bing Jing, you two should accompany Liu Cheng to find Song Ziming.
After all, you know each other, and I am not too sure if Liu Cheng goes alone."
Tian Tiantian nodded.
Fu Yan patted his chest and said:
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it!"
Augustine said:
"Okay, then I'll go and get busy with the company's reorganization. When the field investigation has results, you can send me a communication."
After receiving the task, Liu Cheng and the other two took a half-day break, mainly to pack their equipment and luggage, and then spend some time with their families.
Half a day later, Liu Cheng drove the newly purchased XS-15 fast attack ship, and took Tian Tiantian and Fu Yan to the star field indicated by Song Ziming.
Compared with the XS-13 fast attack ship that Liu Cheng had driven before, the XS-15 fast attack ship is about 50% larger in size.
The previous XS-13 fast attack ship could not accommodate two people.
The current XS-15 still has a spacious space for three people.
However, no matter how spacious the space is, it is still a small fast attack ship, and it cannot be compared with medium and large spacecraft.
At least there is no spacious area like a bathroom and kitchen, and the rest area only has beds and a small toilet.
However, the XS-15 has a space engine, which can be used for long-distance interstellar travel.
When the three of them are tired, they go to the back to sleep, and when they are hungry, they eat some fast food space food.
As for Liu Cheng, he is tired of driving the spaceship, so Fu Yan and Tian Tiantian take over.
It is not too difficult to just operate the basic spaceship. Fu Yan and Tian Tiantian mastered it after trying a few times.
Besides, the spaceship has an automatic navigation and driving function.
If you don’t encounter a situation where you must manually control it, just let the spaceship navigate and fly by itself.
In order to get there as soon as possible, Liu Cheng and his three friends will only find a nearby planet to land and refuel when the spaceship is running out of energy.
At the same time, Liu Cheng and his three friends will go to the hotel to book two rooms, wash and rest properly.
Then go to the nearest restaurant to order three steaks.
After eating too much dry space meals, they still want to eat some fresh food.
Ten days later.
Liu Cheng and his friends arrived at the destination star field, the Black Sand Star Field.
Tian Tiantian was looking up information about the Black Sand Star Region on the Internet while reading to Liu Cheng and Fu Yan:
"The Black Sand Star Region is named because the planets here have no resources, only black sand all over the sky.
It is a barren star region without vegetation and life.
It was originally a peripheral star region far away from the jurisdiction of the United Government, with only a small number of criminals and refugees living here.
The planets near the Black Sand Star Region all regard the Black Sand Star Region as a garbage dump for dumping hazardous waste.
The local criminals and refugees rely on picking up waste in these garbage dumps to obtain resources.
Until several Ten years ago, a man named Wu Sheng came here, gathered all the local refugees and fugitives, and established the Black Stone Kingdom.
Later, the locals found that as long as they went through a specific refining process, they could refine the black sand into the precious metal resource black gold.
So the Black Stone Kingdom became a member of the United Government by mastering the source of black gold.
This man named Wu Sheng also became an interstellar noble.
The following are some reports about the Black Sand Star Region being attacked by alien creatures and losing territory one after another.
Then there is no other information. "
"There is no information about humanities?" Fu Yan asked in surprise.
Tian Tiantian shook his head and said:
"No."
Fu Yan murmured:
“It’s really strange, why is there no information about humanities or anything like that.
Brother Cheng, do you think the job Captain Song took was related to the Black Stone Kingdom? "
Liu Cheng shook his head and said:
"I don't know either, but I think it's very possible."
While the three of them were talking, the three of them saw a large number of warships suddenly appearing in front of them in the starry sky ahead.
To be precise, the three of them approached a military fleet.
The military's fleet includes two strategic cruisers and dozens of large combat ships.
There are hundreds of medium and small warships.
It is a complete corps system.
"It's strange. This regiment is not stationed on the outside of the star field close to the alien creatures. How come it came to this side of the central star field?"
Fu Yan asked doubtfully.
Liu Chengdao:
"Who knows? Let's slow down first to avoid misunderstandings."
After that, Liu Cheng controlled the spacecraft to slow down slowly.
Sure enough, not long after Liu Cheng and the three of them appeared in the surrounding starry sky, several military frigates flew towards them.
Several warships approached the spacecraft driven by Liu Cheng and the others. A pilot in the lead asked Liu Cheng and the three of them through the public communication channel:
"We are the 9728th Corps under the coalition government, and you have entered the defensive star area of our troops.
Please identify yourself and your purpose of visit. "
Liu Cheng and the other three looked at each other, and Fu Yan said:
"I am Fu Yan, the chamber of commerce representative from Augustine Alien Biological Research and Trading Co., Ltd.
I came to this star field at the invitation of President Song of the Veterans Alliance to come here for business cooperation. "
After that, Fu Yan transmitted his identity information through the arm computer.
After the last incident, the three of them in Liu Cheng all became more cautious.
Try not to expose the whereabouts of the three of you.
At this time, it would be more appropriate for Fu Yan, the company's chamber of commerce representative, to come forward.
