Interstellar Love Hunting Guide - Chapter 91
The fighting was fierce. From time to time, our ships were hit by enemy fire, and the ear-piercing sirens came from the loudspeakers. The first companion had already made such a painful decision. The captain of the guard had no choice: “Well, I will report to the commander-in-chief. Make a request.”
Russell turned his head and hugged Beech from the doctor’s arms. The child looked much better and stopped groaning anymore. It seemed that he was infected by the nervousness of the adults, and his eyeballs moved back and forth.
“How is Baby Beech?” Russell kissed him on the forehead and asked him. Beech hugged his neck and rubbed his profile: “When will Dad and Father come to pick us up?”
“Beach be good, the father will be here soon.” Russell hugged the child tightly, adjusted his expression to relax, and said briskly: “Let’s play a game before the father comes.”
“Okay.” Beech became happy when he heard that he could play games. He blinked his eyes and asked curiously: “What game?” After all, he was just a child over one year old, and he didn’t realize that he was at a critical juncture of life and death. .
“Let’s play a game of’how many people can you hide?’. Let me think about it. I remember the last time you hid two guards and one butler. Let’s try something more powerful this time.”
“Okay, okay.” Beech likes to have fun with the old man the most, and said happily, “Then daddy, are you ready? I’m going to hide you.”
“That won’t work. Dad has to help you count and time it. Baby Beech will start hiding from Grandpa.” Russell put him on the ground and looked up, with a serious look already, and said to Evans: ” Father, the children are pleased to give it to you.”
Evans looked at his daughter-in-law and nodded helplessly. After all, he was old. The last time he participated in Pandora’s battle, he felt that his combat power had declined very sharply. At this moment, he is even more afraid to be strong in the face of a powerful rebel. , If you change to Sauter, maybe they can be rescued by one person…
“Grandpa, I’m going to start.” Beech looked at Evans eagerly. Usually, he is most likely to make fun of his brother and brother, as well as housekeepers and servants. This is the first time that grandpa has such a high standard. It is still Dad’s mighty , Even grandpa had to listen to him obediently.
Russell patted him on the head and said it was okay, so in the blink of an eye, Evans, Panther, Jopp, and the imperial doctor were all gone. Only a little bit of Beech was left standing there and rolling his eyes: “Dad, I still Who can you hide?”
“Well, let’s play something different this time. Not only do we have to hide more, but also long enough.” Panther had never received any special training before, and Russell was afraid of making mistakes. Many people squatted down and looked at the little son, saying every word, “Okay Beechcraft, listen, the game has started, from now on, Dad will count the time. You must try your best to hide them. Okay, unless you see the father, you must never let them out, understand?”
Beech nodded vigorously and looked at his father with bright eyes: “I see, is the trophy in Father’s hand, right?”
Russell’s eyes were a little moist, but he smiled and nodded: “Of course, it’s a big and beautiful trophy.”
“Sir, I have negotiated with the commander-in-chief, and we will contact Hercules to surrender immediately.” The captain of the guard said.
Russell nodded and stood up and said: “Very well, now start all the small spacecraft in the Chang’e, find someone with good skills to take Beech with the others, and everyone will fly out and mix with the ships of the **** fleet. Together, you and I will stay on the Chang’e to surrender.”
The captain of the guard did what he said, but within a few seconds he arranged the manpower. Russell handed Beech himself to a flamingo guard and solemnly said: “Please, promise me that I will hand the prince to His Majesty Sauter. “
The guard took Beech and gave a solemn military salute: “Use my life as a guarantee, sir.”
“Let’s go.”
“Daddy hug!” Beech looked at the serious and tragic adult and suddenly became a little scared. He stretched out his arms and wanted Russell to hold him. Russell touched his head soothingly: “Beach is good, now my uncle is going to take you to find your father. The king, you have to listen to him in the future, and the rules of the game are sacred and cannot be violated. You must remember the agreement with your father, otherwise no one will play games with you in the future.”
Beech’s small brain was unable to calculate such complex information for a time, and looked at his father suspiciously, and was carried on the small spaceship by the guards.
The hatch of the Chang’e was opened, and dozens of small spaceships flew out one after another. Russell watched them shuttle through the artillery fire and counterattack, closely protecting Beech’s spacecraft to evacuate to the rear. He shook his head severely and connected. The communication channel of the Hercules was closed, and the white flag was hung up.
As expected, Andreev immediately accepted his surrender, and the Hercules stopped firing and asked Chang’e to dock with him.
The war was suspended. All the ships of the **** fleet stopped and stood by. Small aircraft were attached to the ships nearby. The small spacecraft where Beech was was also received into an inconspicuous assault ship.
Several destroyers of the rebels formed an encirclement, and they stared at the Chang’e with light cannons. Russell piloted the spacecraft to dock, and Andreev’s generals held a surrender ceremony, escorting him and the captain of the guard into Hercules.
Russell was the first time he had faced such a fierce opponent with such a high reputation. He was quite a little nervous. After entering the hall, he looked left and right, and found that it looked like the battle command room, and the tall man standing in front of the star map was a legend. Andreev himself.
The display screens and indicators around are flashing, the engineers are busy reporting the battle situation, and the engineers send out the progress of the wormhole jump from time to time. All this makes Russell a little drumming in his heart-it is the core territory of the other party, what The war secrets are all at a glance. This guy doesn’t want him to go back, right? It’s too scary to tear up the ticket. Although he has been mentally building for a long time, he really doesn’t want to hang up at such a young age.
“Hello, Mr. Luo.” Andreev looked up and down the legendary Gaia star caterpillar. He was so short and skinny with no sense of beauty at all. Sauter’s taste was too bad.
“Hello.” Russell at the critical juncture also showed a little bit of the style of the first partner, and he felt a little solemn and not humble under a certain tragic mood.
“I’m very glad that you took the initiative to surrender, saving us both a lot of unnecessary sacrifices.”
“Your Excellency Andreev, please be sure to abide by the interstellar prisoner of war convention.” The captain of the guard said sternly, “Before negotiating with His Majesty Sauter, please ensure the safety of Mr. Luo’s life and civil rights.”
“Of course.” Andreev smiled, “if he has a chance to negotiate with me.” Turning back to ask his staff, “How is Wormhole preparing?”
“The gray road can be opened in half an hour. This time we should be able to fly out of the swallowing star system and reach the edge of the galaxy. Intelligence shows that there is only a medium-sized military station and a large-scale energy station next to it. Make the last leap.” The staff replied, “As long as we can withstand their attack for an hour, we can completely leave the delta galaxy.”
“Very good.” Andreev raised his eyebrows and said to Russell, “I think as long as Mr. Luo is there, we should be able to spend this hour without blood… No, a few hours are not a problem.”
As a hostage Russell can only shrug his shoulders to show that you can figure it out.
“Ready to go.” Andreev said to the guard, “Prepare a safe cabin for our noble prisoner, and take him to rest.”
“Wait.” Russell stopped the guards and said to Delev, “I have surrendered, you can take me away, but my **** fleet is still outside. Some people have been injured, and some ships need repairs. It’s good to get them to leave first. I know that such a requirement is not in line with the norm, but based on your current situation, this is probably the best choice.”
According to common sense, the prisoners should be sent back to the prisoner of war camp, or go to the military court, or the bargaining chip for the prisoners of war, but in Andreev’s current situation, it doesn’t make much sense to do so, and it is impossible for him to spend unnecessary energy to take them to the leap. , Can only either let them go, or… slaughter them all.
The latter is something Russell would never want to see.
“I advise you. Worry about yourself, my sir.” Andreev sneered, “I’m sorry I don’t have the energy to consider your subordinates too well.”
Russell’s heart sank, just about to argue, he suddenly saw an engineer in a white coat rushing over and said, “Your Majesty, it’s not good!”
“What?” Andreev’s face sank sharply, and the engineer’s face was almost pale under his cold gaze: “The reactor has been disturbed, and there seems to be an energy field being generated nearby.”
“What?!” Andreev also changed his face, “When did it start? Did the scan find anything?”
“This field has existed since we arrived here, but it was very weak at the time, and the instrument display did not pose too much threat. But just now it suddenly began to strengthen, and it was geometrically enhanced, which has already affected our reactors. A strong interference was formed. We scanned and found that the energy field was in the captured fleet!”
Andreev’s sight swept across Russell’s face: “Mr. Luo, are you hiding something?”
The cold sweat on Russell’s head immediately recalled that when the rebel fleet had just jumped over, Beech was rolling around with his head. At that time, the doctor said that the distortion of the energy field formed by the wormhole had affected his brain waves, and then the other way round. In other words, could it be that the field generated when Beech distorts space can also affect the reactor that forms the wormhole?
Good deed, just let him hide a few people, what is this bear kid doing so hard!
“Find it!” Andreev vaguely felt that Russell was hiding something. Seeing that he didn’t speak, he immediately ordered his subordinates, “Let their commander hand over the energy jammer, otherwise… I don’t mind violating the Galaxy Convention and slaughtering the captives. “
“No!” Russell was shocked, Andreev turned his head to look at him: “What do you want to say, my lord?”
Russell had never experienced such a difficult choice in his life. If he didn’t hand over Beech, they would wipe out all the prisoners in minutes, and if he handed over… he might lose both his sons at the same time.
“X3768.” Russell could not let the entire fleet be buried with his son. I believe Andreev would not kill him immediately even if he got Beechcraft. In a sense, being a prince is more important than his own. One point, it is more suitable as a hostage.
Damn how long is it from Soter’s arrival!
“Thank you for your cooperation.” Andreev waved his hand at the guard, and someone immediately issued an order through the communicator to look for the small spacecraft X3768.
Half an hour later, a guard came in: “Your Majesty, we found the small spaceship, but…”
“What?” There were too many accidents today, which made Andreev a bit irritable. He frowned and looked at him coldly. The guard shivered and said, “But that is an unmanned spacecraft. To be precise, on board. There is only one child over one year old.” As he said, another guard walked in with Beech in his arms: “Your Majesty, this is the child.”
“Dad!” Beech broke free from the guards flexibly, and got into Russell’s arms with a stab. His eyes were shining, “You must not guess how many people I hid, and when will father give the trophy I brought it, I can’t wait!”
Russell was holding Beech in a complex mood. He didn’t expect that his son, who had been walking around in such a short time, returned to his hands. Then “unmanned spacecraft” or something must be his masterpiece, right? How many people did he hide? Could it be that the entire guard to protect him has been installed? It seems that he really underestimated his ability…
Thinking of this, Russell suddenly had a magical thought-if he just tried to get a meteorite, asteroid, or something nearby, would he be able to directly break the Hercules when it is released? ==
Forget it, think about things that are more realistic, such as what to eat for dinner tomorrow…
“Father is coming soon.” Russell comforted by touching his son’s head, “Baby, remember the agreement with Dad. You can’t just give up.”
“Okay.” Beech was very happy to be able to return to Russell again, with little arms hanging from his neck, looking back at Andreev, grinning, little teeth white and white: “Hello, uncle, you let them Did you take me to find dad? Thank you.”
As soon as he came in, Andreev’s eyes stayed on his face. This kid looked so much like Sauter. I remember seeing Sauter for the first time more than two hundred years ago. He was still a Scout. Now his children are so old.
But my child…
A look of love, grief, and anger appeared in Andreev’s eyes, and it took a long time to show a stiff smile: “You’re welcome, my child…Is this the son of you and Sauter?” The last sentence was directed at Russell. Said.
Russell held the child’s arms tightly. He had heard that when gossiping with Atoto, Andreev’s partner and son died in the war, and indirectly also died at the hands of Sauter, although he knew that at the moment. Delev still kept them as hostages. It was impossible to kill them like this. He couldn’t help being afraid when he saw his vulture-like violent eyes.
“Like his father.” Andreev hooked his mouth, as if smiling, but his expression became colder and more treacherous, and he stretched out his arms, “Can I look at him?”
What he said was a question, but there was no request. The big, well-defined hand grabbed Beech without hesitation. Russell immediately took the child and stepped back, blocking his hand sideways, while the captain of the guard rushed up. Stand in front of him: “Your Excellency Andreev!”
Beech was a little frightened by his overbearing aura, and he hugged Russell’s neck tightly: “I’m afraid Dad!”
“Don’t be afraid of baby.” Russell held him tightly, patted his back, and said softly: “Don’t be afraid of baby, unless someone wants the entire army to be wiped out and die here, let your father’s imperial army fire a gun on him, this This uncle will not hurt you.” At the same time, his eyes met Andreev firmly and strongly.
The war has not ended, they have not yet come out of the swallowing star system, there are too many variables, and his words made Andreev look overwhelmed, and the action of reaching out was stopped in the middle. Beech was comforted by his father’s words, looked at Andreev, and asked in a low voice, “Is he a good man, Dad?”
Russell’s eyes were still firmly nailed to Andreev’s face, but his voice was still gentle: “Of course, he is just playing a game with you.”
“Om?” Beech’s eyes lit up, “Can I play games with him?”
Before Russell had time to answer, everyone in the Hercules command room suddenly blinked, and Andreev disappeared.
