Cruiser Plum's talking room. "I don't know anymore," said Taro, flipping over to the couch, scratching his head. Marl, watching it on the side, groans "Damn it," and sighs haha.
"In the end, wars between companies are the only things on the line of discussion. If they don't hate each other, it's not friction due to cultural differences. They'll trigger, but they won't cause it."
Xiaomei, who remains upright next to Taro, answers that for both of them. Taro nods vaguely at it, "I know, I know," he returns.
If it is a war that does not go beyond what the Empire has recognised, it is only a good event for humans who have nothing to do with the company. The friction caused by cultural differences is something like humanity or something else, but there was absolutely nothing to do with this war.
Dingo was certainly a wing, but culture and life are not different from humanity. At least according to Dr. Aljimov, they just had the mutants derived from the same humanity immobilized.
"But I don't know what it's like to work with someone you've been killing until the other day. You got something to come in your mood for, huh?
"It's hard for me to switch. I'm sure he's still a kid, but I don't know. What was Alan saying?
"You said it depended on how the EAP came out. As Dingo said, there's no need to get used to each other, and it's not a bad story."
"Yes. Well, it's true."
Probably the answer as expected. Marl groans so without any particular emotion, placing the chicken in his hand - synthetic meat that resembles it, to be exact - on the tray and falling to the couch just because he has a full stomach.
"Eat and lie down and you'll be a cow."
Slightly, Taro. But all I got back from her was, "What's a cow?" The answer was no body or lid.
The Tarongs, who left the Alpha Station, run along the route they themselves pioneered.
It was a while before EAP's regular trading vessels entered the communications network around the Alpha system, and until then it was difficult to communicate with Lynn.
Besides, it is not possible to communicate in the form of a call, so it will be exchanged by e-mail with a time difference. To tell an important story, there was no question about it.
"You just installed a directional beacon. It's gonna be a lot easier."
From the beacon installed on the route, the transmission of coordinates by powerful waves was carried out on a regular basis, and the pram had received that wave firmly.
"Yeah, Miss Marr. The calculation accuracy of the jump is about 122% more stable than before. According to information from the EAP, regular spraying of drive particles also appears to be planned in the near future"
"Ugh, that's a big story on the scale. How much does that cost?
"It's still in the pro forma phase, but it'll cost billions to tens of billions of credits, won't it, Mr. Taylor? Perhaps in the form of EAP-sponsored co-financing."
"Maybe we'll build Stargate in the future. And then you'll be able to come and go in a tenth of the time."
Although the new route has not been pioneered for long, it has already been actively developed by each company, mainly EAP. When Taronda passed through, the creature was a space where no artificial pieces existed, but now it was even occasionally different from a work ship or a transport ship.
unsafe outer space and yet unstable routes. Every company entering from those conditions was full of potentially one-of-a-kind companies and small companies, but they were aggressive and full of vitality.
"Come on, we're going to the last jump, Mr. Taylor. The ship has captured the fourth Stargate beacon in the Cuttlefish system."
Taro nods at Xiao Mei's words and stands relaxed against driving drunkenness. Eventually, when he withstood the floating sensation he had visited, he arrived in the Katsushika system in no small amount of time.
"Mr. Taylor, it's been a while. Looking good!!
Lynn, who waited in the same reception room as one day, finds Taro and smiles. "Ooh," Taro said briefly, smiling back at him. Marl and Xiaomei also wave behind Taro and smile at the longtime resumption.
"It's not been long enough for me to have a story to accumulate, but how's it going over there? Dingo told me all about you, huh?
When Taro sat on the couch prompted by someone he believed to be Lynn's subordinate, he laid his hands on the mineral water that had been placed at the table. Scented, then hints of citrus.
"Yep. Well, it's not clear yet, but it's not a very fragrant situation."
When Lynn says so, she nods to one of her men and shows them. When his men say no, "Excuse me," he raises the large screen provided on the wall. Then, the system map was immediately shown, and the areas color-coded in blue and red could be confirmed.
"This red labeled area is the one bordering the Enzio Alliance. As you can see, it's quite a wide range."
About a quarter of the total EAP area is painted red on the map indicated by Lynn. When Taro looks at it, he decides that it does seem like a bad situation. It has too much scope to protect.
"The Enzio Alliance is about four alliances, right? There was already a declaration of war?
"No, not yet. However, the fleet is being assembled near the Alliance boundary. It's impossible to hide military action when it's that big. Not yet, but it seems certain that it will come soon."
"Yes. But for what? Bella said it would be harder than this."
"Um, that's it," said Lynn tilting her neck to Marl's question. When he manipulates the terminal at hand, he makes a large screen display a list of something.
"It's mostly published data, rather than collected by EAP intelligence… The economic balance of the four alliances participating in the Enzio Alliance."
A skewed list showed the proportion of each industry relative to the economy as a whole. Taro looked at it blurredly, but he didn't have to think about it to discover the problem.
"It's an anomaly. This. Most of them are munitions related industries?
"Yeah, that's right. Twelve years have already passed since the four alliances went to war. There was a state of well-being, but it must have naturally happened in a long battle."
"I see... Simply put, if we're not at war, the economy will crumble."
To Marl's succinct words, Taro smiles bitterly.
"Oh, that's too good to bother you around. He can't settle, so he's got a stomach to get the others involved, right?
"You will...... and that's not the only problem. Haltman, give me the example material."
A man called Hartman nods at Lynn's voice and manipulates the terminal. The display of the screen is switched and the Tactical Radar Screen, which is well familiar to the Tarongs, is displayed. Eventually, the light point on the radar screen began a complex movement, and I could understand exactly what that meant. Fight.
"This blue is the EAP, isn't it? Is red a dingo?
To the voice of Taro, Lynn shaking her head. Then there, Xiao Mei, who had refrained from going to Taro's side, pinched his mouth.
"It's a denial, Mr. Taylor. The opponent is probably a wind."
To Xiao Mei's words, turn to surprise face together. Taro understands that even Lin is surprised, so Xiao Mei's point is probably a hit.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Mei. I can't believe it. Because this..."
Marl looks anxious and looks at the radar screen. Taro glances back at the screen, just like Marl, and creases between his eyebrows that it is indeed hard to believe.
"Don't fight as a group. Seriously, Waind. What?
"Yeah, that's right. You wouldn't believe it, would you? I thought it was a lie when I got the report too... and you got it very well, Xiaomei. How so?
Lin's voice is answered by Xiao Mei, who is somewhat proud of her face.
"It's a move, Mr. Lynn. Their movements have no such thing as fear or stray. They are unique to humans."
Xiao Mei pointed to the screen and continued.
"The movements are all very monotonous, but they are clearly acting with united intentions. Is it the focus of the attack on the left wing in this case? It doesn't seem like it would save you any damage, it's very efficient."
Taro looks at the screen as he listens to Xiao Mei, his throat snarling. Xiao Mei's words "very efficient" sounded like something horrible.
"Seriously...... so much, you remember what a tactic is?
The silence descends on the blushing and grunting Taro. Eventually the battle ended in an EAP victory, but the damage never seemed small.
"Hey, Taylor. I'm scared."
To Marl's voice, he nodded silently and tall. He understood Marl's feelings so painfully. Because he, like her, was horrible.
