After three standard Earth Days 72 hours later, Hope, the huge interstellar colonial spacecraft, has gradually approached this mysterious planet they numbered JNO.3.

This yellowish-yellow planet surrounds a star in the planetary system, with an orbital period of about 500 Earth days, and a rotation period of between 30 Earth standard hours. It also has a gravity environment of 1.3 times the standard Earth, covering more than 80% of the ground's strong acidic oceans and the same corrosive atmospheric steam...

In any case, it seems to be very unfriendly to humans who come from afar!

Now, the reason why Hope has come here to this planet that is full of malicious intentions towards humans is because on this planet, there are the precious energy materials that Hope is urgently needed: high-energy gas and high-energy crystal mines!

This is the only planet among the last twenty best planets detected by Hope that possesses a large number of these two rare energy minerals at the same time, while the other planets detected are not at all!

This is something that I cannot ignore. Is this the luck of Hope?

Otherwise, they would have to find a suitable planet within their voyage distance, and then start colonizing and living a difficult life. With no energy, Hope, at that time, they would probably have to become a large fortress city and landed on the surface of the planet in a frustration?

After no longer having advanced energy for interstellar navigation and migration, we can only rely on the illumination energy of stars and nuclear energy to navigate within the galaxy, right?

Through the high-intensity space glass window in the bridge above Hope, looking at the huge large planet in front of me, covered by a mortar atmosphere, and the brown ocean that occupies more than 80% of the area above it, Captain Leona couldn't help but frowned slightly.

For some reason, she doesn't like this planet very much!

Because, she seemed to be able to feel some faint hostility coming from above? This gave her the urge to command the Hope to change direction and enter the warp speed and jump away...

If it weren't for the energy minerals they urgently needed on this planet... they would definitely not have looked at it more, right? Not to mention coming here.

Compared to this sinister earthy planet, Leona prefers their original earth.

That is a beautiful and livable planet suitable for human habitation. Until now, Captain Leona still clearly remembers that when the earth looked at from outer space: it was a beautiful white cloud, brown continents and islands, and a blue ocean like gems...

If she was looking at the Earth in outer space farther away, she could even see that the Earth is actually a charming planet with a blue overall appearance. Its surface is nearly 78% covered by the ocean, and there is a thick blue atmosphere...

It’s a pity that these people in their Hope Number will probably never go back to their former home in their lifetime, right?

That was the long distance they had sailed at warp speed for more than a hundred years...

I'm afraid that after several generations of reproduction on Earth, no one can remember the so-called "criminals" who were expelled from Hope?

And, more importantly, now, they don’t even have the coordinates of the earth…

The vast universe is in the infinite sea of ​​stars, where do they want to find that small earth?

They are all those damn new coalition governments on Earth, those UPL bureaucrats, those damn bastards, and ugly dictators! Leona feels that all of them should go to hell!

"Captain Leona! Hope has begun to enter the synchronous orbit of the planet JNO.3. It is expected to be completed in ten minutes. Please instruct!"

While Captain Leona was traveling outside the sky, still missing the distant and beautiful earth and cursing the bureaucrats of the new coalition government of the Earth, the navigator on the Hope Bridge began to report to her loudly.

"Very good, maintain a synchronous track and be alert! We don't need to land, just stay here."

Captain Leona came to her senses, nodded, and then directly ordered to the navigator.

Once again, he frowned and looked at the huge yellow earth-yellow planet outside Hyun's window. Leona exhaled and began to turn around and look at the first mate Doug standing next to her.

"Doug, how are the colonial command center ready?"

Captain Leona attaches great importance to this command center!

You know, on their huge No.5 interstellar colonial ship, Hope, there are only two colonial command centers in total.

This command center that can land on the planet to carry out production and colonial activities is an extremely precious non-renewable resource for their current Hope!

Judging from the current energy and material reserves of Hope, it is absolutely impossible to create it if it is lost! Therefore, when it comes to landing and landing on this planet, you must be cautious and cautious, and there is no tolerance for any mistakes!

The colonial command center is an extremely important service unit for outposts, mining areas or colonial bases for all human beings on earth.

Initially, it was a resource recycler designed to inspect federal mining areas, which could hold up foundation piles and move them to new high-energy crystals or high-energy gas springs. Of course, if the energy and materials are sufficient, their own interstellar industrial motherboards also have the ability to manufacture SCVs, receive and store resources, and build other buildings.

Simply put, as long as there are enough materials and energy, and with enough manpower, it can build a mining base on its own!

After all, it was designed according to this at the beginning.

But later, because it has heavy armor and gravity engine flight capabilities, coupled with its reliable development and resource recycling and smelting functions, it gradually became one of the most important buildings of all human military advance bases or colonies!

Whether it is an army or a colonial starship, it usually carries this important strategic resource in the fleet, and thus relies on it to gain a foothold on a strange or dangerous planet.

"Report to the captain! The command center is ready, with five T-280 SCV space engineering vehicles on it. The YS001 heavy armored transport ship has also been equipped with all members of the Cobra Squad. They can follow the command center to land on the planet JNO.3 and provide them with the necessary protection!"

SCV space engineering vehicle is one of the standard equipment of the command center. It is an engineering machine that can adapt to multiple operating environments.

Because it can perform a variety of tasks, whether it is building new buildings, collecting and transporting energy minerals, or even operating directly in space, it shows extremely strong adaptability and reliability.

Therefore, they have gradually become the main force in colonial construction and construction. Sometimes, they even have to follow the army to go to the battlefield and build outpost military attack positions, which contributes an extremely important role to the colonization of space by humans on Earth and is an indispensable and important part of human colonization of aliens.

Now, Hope is preparing to land on this planet and carry out the mission of producing and collecting resources. They rely on a command center fortress and five SCV engineers who are initially carrying out construction, and there are also ten Cobra Land Squad responsible for defending and reconnaissing the surrounding terrain.

Generally speaking, only SCV engineering vehicles and marines need to work outdoors, while the commanders in the command center and engineers responsible for manufacturing various standard units will definitely not easily leave the protection of this fortress-like building.

"How is the recruitment of recruits and new engineers going now?"

Then, this is the second thing Captain Leona is more concerned about.

Later, after they put the command center and the Marine Squad on the ground of this planet, the five SCV engineering vehicles are only responsible for building basic small bases and initially collecting some energy crystals. Later, Hope will need to continuously send various personnel to the ground base below to complete various subsequent tasks.

Whether it is a large number of SCV engineering vehicles or subsequent Marines, Hope will spare no effort to support it!

After all, near this star field, there are wreckage of alien warships. The lifesaving capsule that the little girl Anne who was rescued by them is a proof!

After orbital calculations, they also initially calculated the general location of the wreckage of alien warships, which seems not far from here? Therefore, no one dares to be optimistic about this planet with a lot of energy.

Who knows, will there be aliens on this planet?

Therefore, the necessary military equipment for ground bases is absolutely indispensable!

They hope must open a small colonial production base on this planet as fast as possible. After collecting enough energy and producing enough warships, they will quickly leave this seemingly dangerous place!

In this regard, Captain Leona gave the deadline: within about one hundred standard Earth days, within this time limit, the colonial base on the planet JNO.3 must mine enough energy for her to collect various other mineral resources, and of course, the battle cruiser fleets she had planned long ago!

Leona no longer wants to run naked in space such a huge colonial spacecraft. She must have enough defense.

Whether it is a variety of transport ships, various types of fighter jets, aircraft carriers that take flights, and at least ten large battlecruisers, Leona wants them all!

She wants to form a small defense fleet in the JNO.3 planet, Li Yong, with abundant energy, in the shortest time.

If it was in the old era of Earth, it would be a delusion and an impossible task to complete in such a short period of time.

Just like an important unit in the universe: battle cruisers! If it was in the old era of Earth, it would take less than ten or eight years to build such a warship!

But, it's different in this interstellar era!

Now, everything is modular and standardized production! As long as Star Port is successfully built, it is easy to produce a medium-sized cosmic battlecruiser in ten days and half a month without ensuring sufficient resources!

If you do your best, build a sufficient number of Star Ports, and each Star Port can complete a certain part of the battleship and carry out assembly line production as a whole, it will be no problem to build a battle cruiser for you in three to five days!

Of course, the various operators and logistics supplies equipped on the battle cruiser need to be dealt with by Hope itself. Their Star Port can only produce empty shells. After all, no matter how good the weapons are, they need to be manipulated by people.

If you want to ask how long it will take for a Star Port to be built, then the leader of the engineering department can tell you very responsibly: allocating hundreds of SCV engineering vehicles and adding enough resources, it is no problem to build a huge Star Port for you in three to five days, it is absolutely true!

This is the efficiency in this era of StarCraft!

Whether it is construction or production, all tend to be efficient automation and module standardization, and all the time required for production and construction is compressed to the minimum level.

"Report to the captain! The recruitment of personnel has been fully launched, and the citizens of Hope are very cooperative!"

First mate Doug quickly gave a set of data. At present, whether the training is new Marines or a large number of SCV engineering vehicle operators are already in an orderly manner.

"Doug, if I let you be the commander-in-chief of this command center and ground base, can you be competent?"

After thinking for a while, considering the arduousness of this task, Captain Leona asked about his first mate.

Now, I'm afraid that the only one in the entire Hope Account is more capable and able to coordinate a ground base, perhaps, is it his own first mate?

As for the others...

It was all a group of new recruits, and she really couldn't expect too much...

"Make sure to complete the task!"

After hearing the captain's words, Doug's eyes lit up, his feet were put together and his head was raised and his chest was raised, and he gave a standard attentive salute.

Being able to serve as the commander-in-chief of a ground base is the captain's trust in her and recognition of her abilities. Of course, Doug has no reason to refuse.

Besides, Doug has seen the blueprint for the future development of Captain Leona's designated Hope. If it can be realized one by one by one, now she will have unparalleled importance to her future development.

Now participating in the first development operation of this Hope and serving as commander is a valuable qualification!

"Very good, you can prepare now! The planet is still in the dark, and you still have three hours of preparation time. Then, when the light of the stars shines here, you will start to set off!"

Captain Leona's fingers struck a point on the 3D holographic map on the planet's equator. Here, it is a large island, located on a high ground, facing the sea, not only easy to defend and difficult to attack from the terrain, but also a large number of high-energy crystals and high-gas resources nearby, making it the most ideal place to build a colony.

Among the dozens of locations detected before, although this one is not the one with the most minerals, it does look the most suitable and safest!

If everything goes well, they only need to stay at this location for more than a hundred Earth Days, and then they can get everything Hope urgently needs from this planet!

"As for orders, Captain!"

After another military salute, Doug, the eldest lieutenant of Hope, turned around and walked to the second lieutenant on the other side.

Doug didn't care about the other party's eyes full of envy and jealousy, and directly handed over the authority with her terminal, and then turned around and left resolutely.

Now, Doug is going to pack her luggage and prepare to go to the JNO.3 planet below to serve as the commander-in-chief of the base. The authority of the first lieutenant of Hope and some unfinished tasks naturally need to be handed over to the second lieutenant for processing.

“…”

Good luck, Doug...

After watching the other party leave the bridge and disappear into the automatically closed hatch door, Captain Leona began to pray to the other party silently.

For some reason, when she turned around again and looked at the huge yellowish-yellow planet in front of her, she always felt that she was as if she was facing a prehistoric giant beast, and she felt inexplicably palpitations?

It seems that there is some huge danger waiting for them below?

I hope... this is just her illusion, right?

However, thinking about the damaged alien warship calculated in this star field before, Leona's brow frowned even deeper.

What kind of existence is that a seemingly powerful alien warship was destroyed here? Are they passing by? Or are they destroyed by the native forces here?

That alien warship cannot discover this planet with huge energy reserves, right?

So, are they the same as themselves, thinking of collecting supplies on the ground of this planet? Then... after discovering that there is danger, they hurriedly escaped? But in the end, they were still destroyed by the enemy?

When Captain Leona thought of this possibility, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.

If they hadn't really had no choice, she would never have come close to this strange star field, nor would she stay in the synchronous orbit of this planet!

However, now they really have no other way. Even if they don’t take the risk of landing on this planet, their remaining little energy will probably not be able to leave this star domain, right?

So, I can only take a risk!

This is also the reason why she only gave Doug a 100-day collection and production time!

This is the time limit that she has compressed to the lowest!

If she hadn't felt that there was some kind of danger in this star field, she would have collected all the energy of this planet and created a huge fleet before she would start to sail the space again and find a habitable planet suitable for human survival on Earth.

...

"Wow! Where are you going? Are you going to fight?"

Little Anne, who was wandering in the military zone of Hope, when she walked to the Marines' preparedness zone and saw Garen's large Cobra Squad, wearing their power armored combat uniforms and detecting various weapons and equipment with the help of intelligent machinery, Little Anne's big green eyes immediately lit up, and then she hurried forward.

She felt that judging from this situation, they must have something fun, right? Then, the omnipotent Queen Anne doesn't want to miss it!

Besides, she is the best at fighting and fighting!

"Go and go, find a place to play by yourself! I warn you, little Annie, don't make trouble! We are preparing to land on the planet JNO.3 and perform a combat mission on the ground for more than 100 days. This is not a fun thing. If you don't have anything to do, stay on Hope!"

Captain Garen, who was wearing armor, waved his hand to leave the place and not cause trouble for him while checking his 8mm caliber spike.

After several days of getting along, Galen and other Marines understood the nature of Anne, the little devil. Sometimes, the temperament of this little girl is very bad!

After testing his weapon and confirming that there was no problem, Galen nodded slightly.

Regardless of whether the ground of the JNO.3 planet is dangerous or not, it is still necessary to do this urgent basic work of checking weapons and equipment. This is the basic combat process and cannot be careless at all.

Now their equipment and weapons are performing well, and everything is ready. When the time comes, they will land on the planet on a transport spacecraft and conduct a 100-day combat mission.

Galen only hopes that there will be no danger on the ground of this planet, right?

I guess...it probably won't?

In Garen's view, such a planet with a harsh environment is unlikely to survive creatures.

The advanced detection aircraft and satellites also proved his conjecture, but since the captain set this mission as a second-level dangerous task, he must be extremely careful!

This level of second-level danger is not far from the state of first-level war. It is said that only in front-line bases without war can there be level two alerts? So, is there some invisible dangers on the planet below?

"Login the planet? It's the big yellow planet outside? How can such a fun thing be without me? No! I must go!"

As soon as he heard that he was going to log on to the planet he saw outside, little Annie's eyes became brighter.

This is a landing on a strange planet. How could she be missing if you just listen to it?

No matter what, she has to go and play, and she has to go even if she doesn’t want to go!

"Go away, go away, don't block the way!"

Seeing Little Anne stopping her in front of her regardless of concern, Galen impatiently used his mechanical armored arm to gently push her away.

"We are going to go to war! We are not going to play, how could we bring you with us?"

This time, it’s not a simulated confrontation, it’s a real battlefield mission!

How could he bring a little girl? Besides, Garen is just a captain of a small Marine Corps, with a military rank, and where does he have the authority to bring a little girl? On the Hope, he basically has no say in him!

Moreover, even if Galen has this authority, he doesn’t want to bring a little girl when he goes to the battlefield. How dangerous is that?

"When it comes to war, I am much better than you! I have been mocking confrontations for three times, and even twenty of you can't beat me. Do you still dare not admit it?"

When it comes to war, little Annie is even less cowardly!

She fought fewer battles? Whether it was the dangerous world of Azeroth or the ordinary and mysterious Caribbean waters, she killed fewer people, monsters, and undeads? It was just that she said that they didn't believe it!

Besides, the few simulated confrontations a few days ago have fully demonstrated that the great Majesty Anne's individual combat ability, even if she does not use magic, relying solely on the ability of ghost equipment, she can completely defeat these useless Marine uncles and elder sisters!

(Ahem, to be honest, Master Anne, if you didn't use me to cheat, you wouldn't win so easily, uh...-Tibers finally couldn't help but complain. Every time she fought, she had to cheat and watch the holographic map. Coupled with her strong physique and stealth ability, she could win the opponent every time.)

Shut up! Tibers!

Little Anne held Tibers in her left hand into her arms, and then tightened its neck with both hands.

"Okay! My little ancestor, my Lord Anne! Can you stop mentioning this? We have already admitted defeat and admit defeat. What else do you want?"

When this is mentioned, Captain Garen's face cannot be covered.

Their twenty of the most elite Marines on the Hope account were all trapped by a little girl. Such things probably have spread to more than 100,000 people on the Hope account?

well……

Think about that day, after they lost to Little Annie for the first time, they naively thought that she was just taking advantage of the confrontation between the two sides to make the fisherman profit?

So, afterwards, during the second three-party confrontation, Garen and Dryers shamelessly did not take action or lay landmines, but directly joined forces to round up Little Anne on a map.

But what happened? After Xiao Annie harvested twenty heads, she easily won the final victory in the second three-way competition!

Then, the third game...

This time, in order to hunt down the hateful ghost, they once again shamelessly asked the referee to reduce the area of ​​the island, but in the end... the ending was still a crushing defeat...

It is precisely because of this that these twenty Marines have become the laughing stock of the entire Hope?

Even though they had strongly protested and tried their best to prove to others: Anne, the little devil, was so powerful and cunning! But in the end, it still failed to change the fact that their twenty adult warriors lost to a little girl.

Reality is so cruel that the face that is lost may never be brought back.

"I don't want to do anything! As long as you take me to the planet below to play, that's fine!"

Although little Anne can teleport to the planet below without their consent.

However, the magic power in this universe is too thin and the magic power is recovering slowly, making it difficult to replenish the power she consumes from nature. So, she doesn't want to waste her magic power casually without knowing how long she will stay here.

The bear Tibers has reminded her many times: as long as there is no need, try to use less magic.

After wandering around so many worlds together, Annie felt that her little bear's advice was sometimes quite reliable. So, she decided that if it was not necessary, she would try to use less magic in this world before finding a solution.

"This is absolutely not possible! The planet below is very dangerous! Besides, we don't have a power armor combat suit that suits you, and there is no ghost suit that suits you. On the planet below, it's not like the environment in Hope. Without armor, it will be dead!"

Other conditions may be easy to say, but Garen would definitely not agree with this requirement.

This time they went down, but they had to carry out a arduous combat mission. Where can they take a little girl down to play?

This is not a house-playing house, nor is it a simulated confrontation game. It doesn't matter if you think about it. Garen believes that neither the captain nor Commander Doug of this mission will agree that little Annie will go down and make trouble!

"I'm going to go!"

Little Anne bulged her cheeks and glared at Garen.

Even though the other party pulled up the glass mask and armor plate, she could no longer see the other party's hateful face, she still stared at the other party angrily.

"Annie, if you really want to go, I can bring you!"

While Anne Little and Garen were confronting each other, the first mate Doug Jones, the commander-in-chief of this mission, was walking into the Marines' ready room with her science fiction bag.

After a while, she will go to the command center from here to officially launch this landing operation.

So, when she heard Little Annie being clamoring to go below the planet, she remembered the record of the match against Annie. Think about the past few days, Shuguang Intelligent Brain's assessment of the little girl's safety level, whether it is the Marine's opinion or the evaluation of the Hope Intelligent Brain, their report shows that this girl has no malicious intentions towards Hope.

So, after thinking about it, Dog directly agreed to the other party's request.

I guess this is what Captain Leona wants to see?

Otherwise, the captain wouldn't have ordered the equipment production department to work overtime to tailor a reduced version of the ghost suit for Little Annie, right?

Even weapons are tailor-made based on the special physique of this alien girl?

When Doug thought of the customized, powerful large-caliber sniper electromagnetic rifle, he felt ashamed... If he didn't have a good physical fitness, I'm afraid that ordinary people wouldn't be able to use that thing, right?

"But, Dog's first mate, little Annie, does not have armor. It would be too dangerous to go to the environment below! In this case, even if she goes down, she can only stay in the command center. What's the difference between not going down?"

Seeing that Dog's first mate actually agreed to Annie's request, Garen was a little anxious.

After so many days of getting along, they all like this alien little girl very much.

Although she was a little naughty and a little more prank, it was still not too much. So, for safety reasons, he still suggested not to take Little Anne to the dangerous planet below.

"Uh...Who said Anne doesn't have the right armor?"

Doug smiled mysteriously at Garen. Of course, she knew that the task was very difficult. It was because of this that she wanted to bring this alien girl.

After all, the opponent's combat effectiveness is already obvious to everyone in Hope!

Under the frontal confrontation, a little girl could actually defeat twenty Marines? In the current Hope, there is probably no such person who can be more powerful than her.

"Come on, laugh Annie, come here, I'll take you on your exclusive Ghost Agent armor now."

After carefully putting his salute down, Doug smiled and waved to Little Annie.

She now plans to take the other party to a special equipment area on the other side of the military zone first, and get the precious little gift specially produced specially designed for the other party.

"Huh? Agent's armor? It's really for me?"

Do you actually have your own armor? Is it like the ghost suit in the simulation confrontation game?

When she heard this, little Annie was a little surprised. Can she really have ghost armor? It seems to be very fun?

So, she quickly stepped forward and followed this Doug sister happily.

Annie has now made a secret decision: for the sake of this elder sister Doug, she will not call her aunt in person anymore, at most... in private, just scream a few times?

That's right, then it's a pleasant decision!
Chapter completed!
