Wang Jing, from the Huagai star in the Taiwei galaxy, is a naval warrant officer on the Suzaku, the flagship of the 87th patrol fleet of the original planetary defense force on the Huagai star, also known as a candidate officer.
She was born in Guixi Market, which is a super interstellar metropolis with a population of 100 million, at least for the Taiwei Galaxy.
Her grandfather is a mid- to high-level official in the city and planet's city hall, and her mother is a wealthy businessman. Her family is well-off and has a worry-free life. Not only does she own many properties in the city, but she even owns them in wealthy areas in the suburbs.
There is also a valuable villa.
It can be said that if there are no accidents, Wang Qing's future in the Taiwei Galaxy will definitely be boundless with her family background.
At most, she only needs to work hard for a few years of qualifications, and then use her family's financial resources and connections to operate a little bit. By the time she reaches middle age, she can at least become a captain, or even a commander of a small fleet.
It's not difficult to become an official or anything. It's just like playing to go straight to a height that ordinary people can't reach in their lifetime. It's definitely not too difficult.
But no matter what...
Funny thing is, when she had just graduated from the military academy and entered the army as an intern, she didn't know what the high-level psychics of Huagai Star had done, but they directly attracted the physical monsters in the subspace, that is, that kind of
The chaotic demon directly sacrificed the entire planet, bringing an instant doom to a good home planet?
Many people died, including Wang Qing's family, but she was the only one who survived.
What happened at that time is a taboo for almost all Huagai people who are still alive. It is a nightmare that no one is willing to recall or mention again in their lifetime!
You know, before the doomsday catastrophe, Huagai Planet had a population of more than 30 billion!
result……
As soon as those subspace demons arrived, two-thirds of Huagai Star was wiped out, which was more than 20 billion people.
That’s more than 20 billion people, and they are living lives, not data on paper!
The tragic situation at that time can be said to be a mountain of corpses, a sea of ​​blood, and an endless hell.
No matter which city you go to, innocent corpses, skeletons and heads are almost everywhere. The stench, decay and evil curse that can make people tremble in the soul can be heard, seen and felt everywhere.
The terrible reality.
Originally, the Huagai people were almost in despair at that time, and even those who were still resisting were just hanging on, because humans had no effective way to deal with those subspace entities and those man-eating demons.
And fortunately!
At that time, Wang Qing's patrol fleet was defeated by demons. Then, by chance, she escaped in a rescue capsule, and by chance, she was inadvertently involved in the subspace rift. Fortunately
By chance, he encountered a subspace storm and was thrown directly out of the galaxy?
In most cases, if anyone had been in that kind of situation, they would have died several times!
But what was even more coincidental was that Wang Qing survived, and continued to use the rescue cabin to call and send distress signals, and in the end she actually successfully found rescuers.
The one from the Federation of Heroes of the Koprulu Sector.
Most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most
Most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, the greatest, the greatest, the greatest, the greatest, the greatest, the greatest, Anne Hastur, heard it.
She summoned him, and resolutely took her back to Canopy Star, and then summoned one of the main flagships in the sector - the legendary 'Noxus'.
Immediately afterwards, almost all Huagai Star people know what happened next, so I won’t go into details here.
Anyway!
Under the organization and command of the sector, countless brave Huagai stars joined the army one after another, and then using the equipment and weapons provided by the sector, after nearly a year of brutal fighting, they finally stabilized the Huagai planet.
In this situation, nearly half of the land was taken back from the hands of demons, fallen ones, and those chaotic monsters, and nearly 10 billion refugees were rescued.
From then on, Wang Qing, who brought the head of state and the army of the sector to Huagai Star, and the hope of survival, was dubbed the 'Savior', and his name was still widely praised, at least.
Huagai Star has hundreds of millions of fans and is appreciated and praised by hundreds of millions of people.
However, the good times did not last long...
When the people of Huagai Planet were preparing to work hard to accumulate strength, and planned to completely defeat those demons as soon as possible and drive them out of Huagai Planet to rebuild their homeland, the inexplicable empire, the inexplicable emperor and the meddling Horus appeared one after another.
.
It's like those guys are mentally ill, wanting to incorporate Hua Gai Xing and declare their sovereignty as soon as they've done nothing?
Of course, the Star District would not do that kind of thing of picking peaches, and the Huagai Star people were also very angry, so the two sides naturally started fighting as soon as they disagreed.
As a result, because the sector and Huagai Star have been busy fighting against the demons, their ground strength is strong but their fleet strength is relatively weak. They are far from being a match for the Terra Empire's Great Expedition Fleet with tens of thousands of warships. Therefore, in the end, under the powerful
With the help of Head of State Anne, they were forced to make a strategic retreat and directly escaped the Huagai Star into the subspace.
So far, a full three years have passed...
In the past three years, thanks to the support provided by the large Geller force field and the unlimited energy from the Necrontyr ruins, the demons on the Canopy Star have been basically cleared away. After there is no restriction from the imperial fleet, the entire Canopy Star is on the planet.
Under the leadership of General Darius, the district general, it began to develop rapidly and exploded with great potential. In just three years, it integrated a huge army of nearly one billion and a fleet of at least 10,000 ships.
A counter-Great Expedition fleet composed of battlecruisers!
then!
Feeling that his strength has almost been developed, Darius, the star general who is eager to regain his position, while continuing to develop the Huagai Star and making relevant preparations for the Huagai Star to return to the physical reality universe, can't wait to appoint the volunteer.
The savior Wang Qing is the commander, let her lead
A sector battlecruiser and 10,000 elite troops from the Canopy Star served as forward sentinels and took the lead in using the subspace engine to return to the real universe, intending to see the specific situation of the Taiwei Galaxy and make preparations for the subsequent troops and even the reappearance of the Canopy Star.
Make preparations for collecting intelligence and investigating the enemy's situation.
But how could they have imagined that they had just come out and found several small and medium-sized empire ships fighting with each other in the asteroid belt on the outskirts of the Taiwei galaxy, where the environment had changed drastically?
Moreover, looking at the painting on the battleships, it seems that they are all battleships of that guy Horus?
Although Wang Qing was confused after receiving the report at that time and didn't know what was going on, in line with the principle of hoeing the strong and supporting the weak, and in line with the principle that all the Horus fleets are enemies, she didn't care what the specific reason was, and directly
Order the warships to approach and take away all those warships that are outnumbered and outnumbered in one wave.
Then, when she was about to physically coerce the stubborn Horus frigate, which was beaten to death and almost exploded on the spot, to surrender so that she could grab some tongues and collect intelligence along the way, something unexpected happened:
Before they even had time to issue a notice to persuade them to surrender, the other party couldn't wait to surrender unconditionally. Then they kept saying that they were "one of their own" and begged them not to open fire?
That situation made Wang Qing even more confused at that time!
Because she is very sure that there are no "individuals" of their Canopy Star in this real physical universe. Their own people are still hiding in the Canopy Star in the subspace and immersed in development. Then Sir Darius
She is also busy with some grand plan. She is definitely one of the first ones to come out to spy on information. Where did she get some of her people from?
then!
Feeling a little curious, a little angry, and even more unhappy, Wang Qing, after confirming that her side had completely controlled the situation, personally boarded a transport boat and prepared to go to the ship that had been controlled by her own landing force and had lost the ability to resist.
The Hatchling's frigate takes a look.
"What one of our own?"
"This is nonsense!"
"I don't remember any of our people firing such a wretched thing that can't withstand a single shot!"
"besides!"
"I just confirmed that when Huagai Star was evacuated, there was indeed no fleet or troops stranded around the planet!"
And as the traffic boat docked firmly at the login port inside the frigate, which was not too big but not too small, soon, before people got off the traffic boat, waves of impatient sneers from Wang Qing could be heard from inside.
and doubts.
And from the sarcastic and sarcastic voice she was discussing with whomever she was talking to, it was not difficult to tell that she was still a little dismissive of the Yingniao's claim to be 'one of her own', thinking it was the kind of shameless enemy who wanted to survive.
It's all nonsense.
"ah!"
"These are..."
However, when she walked off the transport boat with several officers and guards and saw Ali and others waiting in line in the cabin of the landing port and the CMC armor they were all wearing, she instantly stopped talking before she could say anything.
When it was over, I held it back forcefully.
Obviously, Wang Qing knows that the armor and weapons in their sector all have safety locks and permission keys. Once captured by the enemy, they will turn into a pile of scrap metal. If you want to crack it, it is better to dismantle yourself.
It is more economical to go to replica production.
And now, since so many people here are wearing the same equipment as them, and looking at the model, it seems that it is still the standard model that can be quickly installed when the Huagai Star escaped into the subspace and fought against the devil. The serial number was scanned
That's right, so from this point of view, the other party is probably really one of our own?
Because, no matter where the other party's equipment comes from, she knows that it seems that only 'one of her own' can have the permission key and use CMC armor to arm so many soldiers?
"Talk about it!"
"What's going on?"
As a last resort, Wang Qing, after pondering for a while, summoned an officer who had landed on the shabby warship and taken control of the situation before, and then began to question him.
"Report!"
"This is the information that has been compiled so far. Commander, please take a look!"
The officer didn't hesitate, he clicked a few times in the air, and soon, a summary of the intelligence they interrogated and collected after landing was sent to Wang Qing's personal terminal.
"..."
Wang Qing did not hesitate, he opened it and read it quickly.
"!!"
"This is……"
Soon, Wang Qing discovered something remarkable, and hurriedly stopped reading the documents, opened the helmet and protective plate of her CMC armor, and walked directly to the group of 'captured' CMC soldiers who were waiting for review.
in front of the array and asked loudly:
"Who is Ally?"
"Where?"
"Let her come out to me!"
While speaking, she also automatically ignored the tall adults and the taller Astartes Space Marines, and only wanted to find her among the ordinary crew members who greeted her.
Some unexpected little guy.
"Report sir!"
"I am Ali, the leader of their resistance forces!"
However, as soon as Wang Qing finished her words, before she could successfully search the crowd for the target she was looking for, a man who was also wearing a CMC armored power suit, with his helmet also open, revealed a stern face.
The young woman with a hint of apprehension and nervousness on her pretty face stood in front of Wang Qing, saluted and reported loudly.
"???"
"Are you Ali?!"
Seeing this, Wang Qing blinked, and then screamed in surprise the next second.
"That snot-nosed brat that follows the Führer?"
"Are you kidding?!"
Obviously, Wang Qing was a little angry and felt that his intelligence had been seriously provoked and insulted by the other party!
You know, back then, she had seen that little kid dragging his nose behind the head of state Anne. That guy looked thin and small back then. He was probably only four or five years old. Anyway, he was older than the head of state.
Small.
But now, three years later, a girl of at least 18 or 19 years old who was taller than herself appeared in front of her and kept saying that the other person was Ali. How could she believe such a thing?
In her opinion, even if you eat hormonal food and technologically advanced food every day, it is impossible to grow to this extent in just three years, because it will only grow horizontally at most, rather than growing into the person in front of you.
A tall and graceful girl!
"..."
Hearing what Wang Qing said, Ali's expression suddenly froze.
"Aunt Wang Qing!"
"It's really me..."
"I still remember you, back then..."
"In Sister Anne's beautiful little spaceship, you even helped me take a bath. You also said that my butt and arms were thin and you advised me to eat more meat?"
But soon, as that inexplicable memory came to her mind, Ali, whose eyes gradually became moist, began to sob.
Think about it, how many years have passed, how much hardship she has suffered, how many sins she has taken, how many difficult detours she has taken, and she has also experienced several failures and blows, and now she has finally found an organization. It would be strange if she is not excited.
!
Although, she was also a little puzzled and curious. She didn't understand why after so many years, Aunt Wang Qing in front of her was still the same as she remembered, without much change?
"!!"
But this time, after listening to Ali's words, it was Wang Qing's turn to feel a little uneasy.
"Is it really you?"
"Little Ali?"
Then, she looked around Ali for the first time, and then vaguely discovered a little outline of the little girl on Ali's face, and then she asked in disbelief:
"But!"
"Isn't this wrong?"
"Looking at you, it's been at least more than ten years, right?"
"But our Huagai Star has only been in the subspace for three years!"
Yes, this time difference made Wang Qing confused for a while.
Of course, if she had just read the report that the officer under her command gave her, she would have discovered that the time that has passed in the real physical universe is far from as simple as three years.
"Only, only three years?"
This time, it was Ali's turn to be surprised again.
"yes!"
"Commander Darius has installed a super-large gadget on the planet. He plans to try to jump out of the subspace in about three to five years, and then drive the planet to find trouble with the empire!"
It's just the vanguard, here to find out information!"
Wang Qing did not hide anything and directly told the reason why she appeared here.
"Right!"
"What about Horus?"
"Is he okay now?"
Then, seeing that Ali and others were brave enough to seize Horus's ship and then start a fight with Horus' fleet, she decided to ask about business first.
"Horus..."
Opening her mouth, her mind was a little confused, but she quickly thought of a possibility from some of the knowledge taught by her teacher Magnus. She quickly nodded and calmed down, and then continued to look at her.
Aunt Wang Qing also explained:
"Horus may be dying!"
"The Emperor is probably coming soon..."
"In fact..."
"Maybe at least one of them has to die?"
Ali thought for a while and finally could only say this with a complicated expression.
Because Horus had rebelled, and the false emperor had done something stupid, and the other Astartes Legions and Primarchs seemed to be still in the dark, so Ali felt that the situation she just mentioned
It will indeed happen. In the chaos, at least one of the false emperor and Horus will die.
Because since it was a rebellion, only the victor would survive, and she didn't care who it was.
"besides!"
"I am almost eighty years old now..."
"You have been missing for at least seventy years!"
"Instead of three years!"
Then, although Ali looked weird, she still told the fact that made Wang Qing extremely horrified.
"!!"
"What?"
"It's been decades?!"
"This is impossible!"
Sure enough, the next second, Wang Qing screamed loudly.
"In fact..."
"Maybe I know why?"
But until then, a captive Astartes Centurion who was formerly under Loken's command appeared next to him as if he couldn't stand it.
He first glanced at Wang Qing and others with a complicated expression, then sighed and interjected:
"There is no concept of time in subspace, or the concept of time is very... um, complicated?"
"It is reported that……"
"Without a navigator, some ships enter the subspace in the wrong way, and when they come out again, countless years have passed."
"The Empire has also received reports of human ships from the Golden Age emerging from subspace..."
"But as for whether it's true or false, I don't know."
"I'm just a little centurion, and I don't have access to many things..."
At this point, the centurion looked deeply at Wang Qing and Ali again before he stopped talking.
To be honest, he didn't really believe in that kind of nonsense before, but now that he saw the facts before his eyes, he suddenly started to believe it.
"I remember you!"
"You and Loken were rescued by us on that resource star, right?"
After Wang Qing frowned and stared at the centurion for a while, she suddenly remembered something, and then quickly checked her personal database. Not long after, she released a holographic photo, and what she showed on it was not the one in front of her.
Who is this Centurion Astartes?
"It's really you!"
"Has it really been decades here?"
"Where's Lorcan?"
"He's not here?"
After comparison, especially the change in the nail on the other person's forehead, combined with what the other person and Ali just said, Wang Qing finally believed in the unequal time, and believed that decades had really passed by the outside world.
.
Because they knew their former enemies very well, those Astartes who had fought against the Huagai Star, and they knew what the nails on those guys' heads were like.
It is said that it is a service screw, which is a small metal rivet that is directly fixed on the skull of the Astartes, clearly protruding from the forehead skin. The purpose of the service screw is to record and commend the space warrior for his service to the chapter.
years.
Depending on the design materials and chapter traditions, a single screw can represent different periods of service: a silver nail represents fifty years of service, a gold nail represents a hundred years of service, etc. And those service screws are not only one
A symbol of honor, but also a manifestation of a Space Marine's loyalty and devotion to the Chapter to which he belongs?
Although Wang Qing didn't know why the other party liked to hammer nails into their heads, she could indeed roughly judge how many years had passed from the heads of those long-lived Astartes Space Marines.
"..."
However, thinking about the past few decades, little Ali still looked like a tall young girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, not an old woman. Based on some of her own experiences, Wang Qing didn't know if she remembered something, and then
He kept looking at the other person's body.
"."
Hearing Wang Qing ask about his company commander, the Astartes centurion was silent, obviously not wanting to answer. After all, their situation is indeed embarrassing now, and under such circumstances, the discussion may be on the planet Istvan.
It would be very dishonorable and disloyal to encounter hardships on the battlefield, or Captain Loken who has died.
"ah!"
"Oops!"
However, the next second, before Wang Qing could ask the Astarte or Ali for more questions, she remembered something more important and couldn't help but exclaimed again.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing this, Ali couldn't help but be a little curious. She didn't know why the 'aunt' Wang Qing, who was younger than herself, was so surprised.
"Commander Darius said he would come out in a few years..."
"But in a few years, how many years will pass here in the outside world?"
Yes, what Wang Qing is thinking about now is this even more terrifying fact!
If entering the subspace in the wrong way for some reason causes chaos and asymmetry in time, then when Commander Darius and the others come out in a few years, God knows how much time has passed in the outside world!
And when he thought that he would have to persist for hundreds of thousands of years or even longer without support, Wang Qing felt that he was about to suffocate on the spot.
If that's the case, their planning department will be in chaos again!
"ah?"
"That……"
"Can't we just go back directly?"
In Ali's opinion, that kind of thing is not difficult. After all, their broken ship has a subspace engine, so it is not difficult to enter the subspace.
Speaking of which, she also misses Huagai Star a little bit, and one of her promises to her resistance fighters is to show them the life on Huagai Star. Now that she has the opportunity, she will definitely not miss it.
As for the issue of time, she has nowhere to go in this real physical universe anyway, so she naturally won't care about it.
At worst, she can just wait "hundreds or thousands of years later" to come out with the Huagai Star army to overthrow the empire and the false emperor.
"There's no going back!"
"No coordinates!"
"Besides, we never thought about going back..."
Wang Qing looked a little pale and said bitterly, because that was the fact. They were originally sent out to collect intelligence and fight as a small guerrilla for a few years. It was not difficult for them with the jump engine.
But how could she have imagined that she would face such an outrageous situation after coming out?
"ah?"
"Go back, can't you go back?"
Hearing what Wang Qing said, Ali was also a little dumbfounded. Obviously she had not expected that such a situation would happen again!
"but……"
"There's good news too!"
"We will definitely not be the only troops sent out. More ships and troops will come out in the future. As for how many years it will take for them to come out..."
"Then I don't know."
Having said this, Wang Qing couldn't help but lament in her heart, and then she didn't know what to say.
"never mind!"
"Anyway, since it can't be undone, let's just do this for now!"
"If there is anything we need to discuss after we get back!"
"Come on, little Ali, come back with me first?"
After saying that, Wang Qing stretched out his hand to pull ‘little Ali’ who was at least several dozen years older than him. After forcibly suppressing a strange feeling, Wang Qing turned to the officer just now and ordered:
"Get them ready to abandon ship!"
"Everyone get on board our battleship!"
"We need to leave this galaxy quickly."
With that said, before Ali could speak again, she forcibly pulled the other party onto her transport boat, and then headed towards her battlecruiser.
