The Star Knight

Chapter 57

Opal stuck his finger, his thumb moved to one place, his back was resting on the back of the chair, and his mind was slightly moved to capture Wendy's thoughts-two little girls ran at the top of the sunny sea of ​​trees, and then overwhelmed The war and loud quarrel, the female Luoxing people attack each other.

(I must find a way to leave them. They are the only turning point. Ask them for assistance through the God of War through them.) Wendy thought.

Wendy took Raymond’s mercenary diary and read it for a long time, and said, “You can increase your salary. We can give you whatever you want. Mr. Raymond.” She looked at the diary and said, “You and yours Since the partner is a B-level mercenary group, it must have the corresponding strength."

Raymond didn't interrupt her, walked to the side of the meeting place and sat down.

Opal said: "This has nothing to do with strength, and Azeroth will not promise to send troops to assist you because we are on the female star. This is against the system. You better dispel this idea."

Opal was in the middle of Wendy's point, and everyone in the parliament watched him.

Wendy said: "So let's change the way. As long as you are willing to help us solve the problem, this commission will be successfully completed, and the content of the task will only be if you...

"Wendy." An old man interrupted unkindly: "What can these two mercenaries do?"

Opal lying on the swivel chair without opening his eyes, he began to read the thoughts of the people inside the room, six women, three men, almost all thinking that Opal and Raymond could not do this thing, two Personally, how do you go to the militant base in the desert to save people?What's more, more than 400 members of the female parliament who were imprisoned by the rebels were rescued.

When reading the old man, Opal opened his eyes, and he sharply captured the details of the old man's thinking-how to pass the news.

This person is a spy.

Opal closed his eyes and said, "Not only your sister, but at least a few hundred."

A surprised expression appeared on Wendy's face, and then he pondered for a moment, saying, "Yes, I want to invite you to the desert area to rescue our fellow citizens who were captured. There are my sister and 416 people in it. A member of the female star council. The enemy is about to launch the final attack. According to the patrol, they are negotiating to dispatch all the firepower to win it in one fell swoop."

Raymond asked: "When will it strike?"

Wendy: "It's not clear. It may be a few days later, or it may be tonight. The time is very precious. We must rescue the hostages as soon as possible. Otherwise, the hostages are in their hands.

Opal: "After saving the hostages, you have the ability to defeat the enemy?"

Wendy: "Yes."

Opal said: "I don't believe it."

Wendy took a deep breath and said: "It's easy to worry about you, I will send it to you. As many people as you need can be given. In fact, we were in a meeting before you arrived, and this is the problem."

"We have a hundred soldiers who have made sufficient preparations. They are all death squads. They can start at any time, as long as they can rescue them. It is easy to handle them. The two can lead them and rescue the people and let the defense members cover the retreat. ."

"In this way, I think... the previous task delegation has not changed much in difficulty compared to the current one. For the actual trouble, I will apply to the committee for a fee. I think I can provide an additional 200,000 Credit points are added, that's it."

Opal read Wendy’s thoughts and said, “Can the hostages play a key role in determining war?”

Wendy added: "Yes, I have no comment on the plans afterwards. If we win this war, we will give two fruits of the mother of a female dill, welcome you to come to the female diary anytime."

Opal took out a fruit.

Wendy was startled again, and then smiled: "You already have this thing? No wonder, I said."

Another middle-aged woman on the side said: "It is normal for people who can safely reach the mother tree to have fruit, so to speak, if they fail, they will not be implicated in our guests. After surrendering, we will Send the two away in time."

Another girl said softly, "I agree with Wendy's proposal. There is also a mercenary who might ask several gentlemen to act together. What do you think?"

Opal narrowed his eyes, read the man's heart, and understood her thoughts-they had made a lot of knowledge from their previous statements, obviously they were prepared, and the prepared person cannot be without the power to save people.Now when we talk about the conditions, most of them are just for money.They seem to be willing to pay.

And there is a mercenary on the female star?Opal wondered, who is it?Did you come to do the task?

Both Raymond and Opal were considering. Wendy said: "The two can go around, discuss, have something to eat, and come to me at any time. I live in a wooden house on the west side."

When the lawmakers dispersed, Opal lowered his feet and stood up, and while he was about to talk to Raymond, Wendy stood at the door and said softly, "Sir."

"My name is Opal." Opal replied.

"Mr. Opal, do you know what the fruit of the mother dill symbolizes?" Wendy asked.

Raymond looked at her slightly puzzled, and Opal thought for a while, and said: "Nuo Luoshu will not attack the person holding the mother tree's fruit, is it?"

Wendy nodded and smiled softly, "Yes, but not only that, the female star has her own unique civilization. They all say that we are primitive people. We have not developed science and technology, and we have never opened up the field of planetary technology. Without even joining the Big Star Technology Alliance, we have always followed the custom of marriage in nature."

Opal said: "And the people of your female star are very talkative, one thing always likes to explain the cause and effect clearly."

Wendy said with a smile: "This is... our habit, ah, sorry, the irrelevant things really do say too much, I want to say that every female Luo Xingren is born by the mother, the parents nurture together, and each After a child is born, he can get a fruit of the mother of the female dill... No matter where the child goes to the Star Alliance, this fruit can prove that he is a female dill. For drinking the water here, eat here The local people who grew up with food, they have the breath of the mother star, they will not be attacked by trees, in fact, they don’t need fruits. The mother of the female dill gives each child a fruit, which is another for the children to give them. Half used."

"If the person who gave you the fruit is a girl, it means that she is willing to entrust her life to you and enter into a marriage relationship with you." Wendy said: "If it is a boy, it means that he is willing to be with you for a lifetime." Good brothers, each has the strongest loyalty to this friendship."

"The person I want to give you fruit may not have mentioned this to you." Wendy smiled and left the venue.

A beam of light at dusk projected from a hundred-meter-high hole in the shade, covering the entire garden in the sun, just like a spotlight on the stage. The place outside the sun is still a quiet night, forming a spectacular wonder .

Raymond sat at the table outside the restaurant for dinner. Opal said nothing, and tapped his fingers on the table, asking, "Will you pick it up?"

Raymond said: "It's not difficult to save a few people. You don't have to go. Shopping here. I'll come back after saving. What do you think of our vacation here?"

"Forget it." Opal said: "Four hundred people, you can save them all?"

Raymond raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do not believe in a bet?"

Opal's mouth twitched, Raymond said: "Listen, now serious, we better have someone to stay behind. I suspect there are spies in them. Most of our news has been delivered."

Opal was a bit surprised. Raymond actually knew the information he obtained through mind reading?!

"How do you know?" Opal asked tentatively.

"I guess." Raymond twisted the fork in his finger, carefully struck out the yellow of the bird's egg, and fed it to Opal.

Opal likes to eat fragrant egg yolks. He smacks his lips with satisfaction and finds Raymond staring at his lips. Opal somehow senses Raymond’s inner activity-he feeds himself to eat egg yolks, just to see how he licks his lips .

Raymond likes to watch him lick his lips.

Opal generously licked the egg yolk around the corner of his mouth and raised his eyebrows at him.

Raymond swallowed and his throat knotted.

The two are like a big boy who loves each other, and they love each other in the twilight.

"Laughing?" Raymond recovered and continued to eat his supper.

"Nothing." Opal said funny: "What do you want?"

Raymond said: "I don't know who the spy is yet. I have to find this spy and set up a trap."

Opal: "Don't look for it, the spy is the old man."

Raymond frowned. "Os? You are talking about the elderly with gray hair? I saw the work permit on his chest. The name is Os."

Opal: "I don't know what his name is..."

Raymond: "Are you sure? This must not be guessed."

Opal said: "If you said the same thing as what I said..." Opal saw a person in the corner of his eye and immediately said: "Look over there, hurry!"

The two of them turned their heads at the same time. The old man who had previously spoken in Parliament was talking to Wendy. They were standing far away. Raymond said: "It's him! Oss, the vice chairman of the Plant Research Promotion Association."

Opal said: "I am also talking about him."

Raymond: "Give me evidence, how do you know he is a spy?"

Opal said: "There is no evidence, it is intuition, is it okay to answer this way?"

Opal didn't dare to tell Raymond about mind reading. Once Raymond knew that he would read mind, he might feel that there was no more fun between the two, which was a very tedious thing.In fact, Opal almost never reads Raymond's heart. He even enjoys the love that is revealed, just like now. If Raymond knows that he can read the heart, he may not bother to say many things.

Raymond asked suspiciously: "Intuition?"

Opal: "Intuition."

Raymond thought for a while and finally said: "Find a way to persuade Wendy. After starting the rescue operation, I will not take it alone. One hundred people will be handed over to you. Stay here to hunt and be sure to catch all the enemies. "

"In this way, when I save the person back, you also grabbed the person in the other hand, and the battle is completely reversed."

Opal said: "You're just afraid that even Wendy will be taken away, no one will pay."

Raymond laughed, pushed the plate after eating, and said, "I'll go talk to her."

Opal said: "By the way, ask Mu Shu's home where I hope he is still alive."

The village is very small, maybe it was built temporarily. The waitress came to clean up the plate. Opal asked, "Is this your political center?"

The waitress smiled and said, "No, this is called Adosna. In the ancient female Luoxing language, it is the city of night and the holy place of female Luoxing. The main administrative city is a floating city in the middle of the equatorial rift valley. After the war It was occupied by the rebels. Alice took us to hide here, seeking refuge from the mother tree."

Opal nodded thoughtfully and ordered another Yelu drink. The waitress said, "Which planet are you from? Not a native? Tourist?"

Opal said: "The star, the hometown of mercenaries, have you heard of it?"

The waitress smiled: "Yes, no wonder, you and your companions are mercenaries?"

Opal nodded, and the waitress sat down on the edge of the beam of light, took out a small box, and began to do it manually, saying casually: "I heard that the star is one of the two most beautiful planets in the universe for men, is it? Are the men there all tall and handsome?"

Opal said: "There is this statement? I only know that female stars and sphinx are rich in beauties."

The waitress said: “It’s also recognized that the Martyrs and the Monks Province are rich in beautiful men. The Martyrs’ men are full of masculine charm, like God of War... Azeroth; the priests of the Monks Province are also very handsome, and Ledgerson is A man from a monk province."

Opal thought for a while and found that this was indeed the case. The men of Martial Star were handsome and tall. Almost without exception, they were beautiful men. Even rude men with edgy borders also carried the beauty of wildness and wildness.

In many places, it is true that the men of the martial stars have the highest average score. It is needless to say that this kind of meeting of Suiyan, Lian Xun and Yinyin, and even the dumb old pike who has only worked together once is very handsome and heroic.

"Nuo Luo is the hometown of beautiful women." Opal said: "You are also very beautiful."

"Thank you." The waitress had an intoxicating smile on her face. She bowed her head and made a hand-made flower. The fragrance was overflowing. She said, "I'm a half-breed, and my father is not a native."

The light of the setting sun faded into a magnificent purple, and Opal looked up at the small hole in the canopy of the distant mother-in-law, seeing a twinkling star.

The whole planet is dark, and the female star will bypass a huge planet. This planet will block the star's light. Forty-seven hours later, when it leaves the planet's shadow, the eclipse will pass, and the day will come again.

Fireflies flew in the quiet eclipse night, reflecting Opal's handsome face, he stayed for a while, and suddenly heard someone say: "Hi, beautiful man. I thought you were missing."

"Yintuo?" Opal recognized him immediately. Yintuo turned over the garden railing of the restaurant and smiled at the sun. He came and pulled the chair to sit down, snapped his fingers, and said, "Give me a green coffee. "

"Account me, let's have some fried geek fruit circles." Opal said: "How are you here? They said you are the mercenaries?"

Yin Nuo said: "I'll give Xiaosui's ashes to his two mothers and meet your leader at Wendy's. He asked me to join you for the time being to take this commission." He took out a female dill Guo showed Opal and said, "This was sent to me by Xiao Sui before his death. It is a very precious thing in his life. I have to fulfill his wish to go home."

Opal remembered this and sighed. He looked at Yintuo, knowing that his relationship with Suiyan was more or less unusual. Maybe he was more or less intimate with his lover, and he comforted: "It's all gone ."

Yinnu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, Xiaosui's mother is a female Luo Xingren. She said that when Xiaosui died, she felt it. His soul came back through the universe as early as that day. A few days ago, she opened the urn, female Mother Luo took his ashes away."

Opal Road: "Take it away? Where do you take it?"

Yin Tuo shrugged.

The waitress came over with a plate and smiled: "Your hands are just shells. The fruit of the mother dill can not be eaten. Its seeds will automatically peel off and be buried in the soil to breed new trees. The green fruit that comes out is called the female dill."

Opal understood, Yin Yin said: "Then I think the mother of the female Luo took away Xiaosui's soul, maybe he will become the seed in his next life..."

Opal laughed: "When a tree stands in the sun, it's not bad."

Yin Tuo said: "At least no need to move the nest."

Both laughed, and the sadness of losing their comrades was diluted.

Yindu came earlier than Opal and Raymond, and knew more about the female stars than they did. Three hundred days ago, the female star had a coup and the parliament was cancelled. There is no doubt that there is an empire behind Support, the members of the original female Luo Council were closely monitored.

It wasn't until Wendy, the chairman of the "Plant Research Promotion Association" exercised a legal provision, through her sister Ellie, that local parliamentarians joined the association, effectively protecting everyone's safety.

These parliamentarians left the floating city in the middle of the Rift Valley to seek refuge in the mother of the female Luo. They were suddenly attacked on the road and a lot of them were robbed-more than 400 people including Aili became the hostage of the new development engineering department.

They took the hostages and asked the people of the Plant Research Promotion Society to surrender.

Yindu came here sixteen days ago. Not long ago, Wendy brought the refugees to settle down. Their chances of victory were extremely slim-the empire was too powerful. Armed machinery was sent to protect the diaspora and factories. Outside the atmosphere.

The only republic that has the right to fight against the empire left the female star cleanly, not even the factory, as if afraid of getting into this troublesome trouble.

"The Republic doesn't matter?" Opal said.

"Perhaps because of policy." Raymond returned, and he brought Wendy over to sit down at the table.

Wendy said: "The Republic has another political policy, they are not willing to rub against the empire, or they put their eyes on other planets."

Opal said: "But you are also a member of the Star Alliance, no one else will take care of this?"

"Who dares to control?" Yin Tuo said: "The only country that can compete with the Empire is the Republic."

Also, Opal is no longer the ignorant teenager who left the Chiyan galaxy. He already knew that the empire is a huge political machine with 7,000 planets, and the Republic has 3,300 registered planets. The territories of the superpowers are huge, and it is by no means possible for the rest of the small countries to interfere if they really want to wage war.

What Wendy originally planned was to ask Yintuo to help lead a hundred deadly team members to the rescue mission. Now that Opal and Raymond are here, the plan changes again.

Wendy said, "Can you give us a private room?"

The waitress said: "Soon, Wendy."

She pressed a button and unfolded the huge green leaves underground, separating the space around the tea table, forming a bud-like independent private room. The blue fluorescent flowers on the top illuminated the interior of the private room, which seemed very romantic.

"I plan to do this." Raymond put an information card into the slot of E7, and E7 began to read the map information.

Raymond opened the projection of E7 and said: "I just conducted a reconnaissance, and Oss was really a spy. He sent a message to the outside, and the place where the hostages were really held was not far from the sea of ​​trees. It was an abandoned underground fertilizer center. As a stronghold, prepare to launch the final action...just wait for us to leave with the death squad."

Wendy said, "How did you find out..."

"Guess." Opal said.

Yin Nuo smiled, touched Opal's head, and said, "He is very powerful."

Wendy took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for finding the spy, this time..."

"You're welcome." Opal smiled modestly and said, "Continue, don't waste time."

Both Yintuo and Raymond laughed. Raymond called up the map of the tree and the sea. The map was complex and uneven, and the topography was uneven. Opal found the red dot on the top and said, "Is it here?"

"Well," Raymond said, "55 kilometers."

Opal: "Out of the range of the connector."

Raymond: "Are you talking about earrings? I guess I can barely receive the signal."

Opal: "What are you going to do?"

Raymond said: "Five hours later, Yin Yin gathered everyone, evacuated the second-level tree trunks and protected them. There is a refuge 50 meters above our heads, left for your soldiers Fifty people pretended to be ordinary residents, and fifty people were ambushing on the ground, waiting for the other party to rob people. When Opal arrived, they led them to catch as much as possible.

Opal said: "I'm afraid I won't deal with it. What is the origin of poachers?"

Raymond: "A small part are imperial soldiers in disguise, most are rogues from other galaxies."

Opal nodded slowly. When the Empire sent out disguised poachers to take into account the interstellar influence, it should not dare to send a thug to the female Luoxing on a large scale. It is expected that it will not be difficult to deal with.

The same task was placed a few months ago. Opal confronted the members of the regular army and was completely unsure.

The interstellar ratings of the mercenaries have not been as good as the regular army. After all, the Imperial Army has been systematically taught and trained, and its combat quality is not a little bit higher than that of the star soldiers.

However, not long ago, the military evaluation of the entire Martial Star jumped to a high position, and the surviving mercenaries have all been on the battlefield and have fought hard.

The Empire has not encountered large-scale wars since three hundred years ago, and simulation training alone could not reach the realm of mercenaries who fought on the edge of life and death.

The battlefield is the best test room. If you fail to pass your life, you will pass the harsh test with strength. Opal and Raymond also got high scores. This is their capital.

Opal: "How many people?"

Wendy said: "The maximum number of rebels is 600. They have to send people to stay at the base where the hostages are held. At most, they can only send 500 people."

Opal Road: "Are you sure there are only 500?"

Wendy nodded and said, "The empire did not dare to send troops directly. Five hundred people are already the limit of poachers. The female Luoxing who fled to them are our compatriots, and no one will attack their own people, let alone Come and attack the mother of Nero."

Raymond said: "Five hundred people are easy to solve. The local army did not dare to attack their compatriots in the shade of the mother of Nuo Luo. This is their belief."

Opal nodded slowly, with five to six hundred people, with less preparedness and more difficulty in preparation.

After the agreement, Wendy said to Opal: "The friend you are looking for, Mu Shu, has been contacted. He is in another shelter, more than three hundred kilometers away from here. We will send him a communication in the afternoon, and he heard you coming. Things are very happy, but he can't leave the underground refuge, and now it is dangerous everywhere. If he encounters a poacher, he may be killed on the spot at any time..."

Opal said quickly: "Let him never come out! I will visit him after solving the task."

"I told you to help him." Raymond said: "After the commission is over, find him out to gather and have a drink."

Opal Road: "Yes, that's it."

The four of them split their heads to prepare, Yinyin took the people to evacuate, there was a spiral staircase in the giant air root, Opal followed up to set up an ambush point, the mother of the female dill was hardened by the air root, I don’t know what the material was, he knocked on the wall , A middle-aged woman said: "Half of her body has become a fossil."

She was a member of Parliament previously seen by Opal, and Opal nodded to her.

"Mother of Nero..." Opal said: "Will she secrete milk?"

The middle-aged woman carried the skirt and walked at the end of the crowd. She said to Opal: "44% of the mother's body has petrified in a long history and is integrated with this planet. We are about to board her branch, and then Go up and reach the top of the canopy, you will see that she is still twigs and leaves."

"After these buds are removed, her sap will ooze, which is the source of milk."

People look up at the height of the spiral staircase in the air roots. In each hollow air roots, there are residents who are escaping. The migration team of 140,000 people is extremely spectacular. They walked for ten minutes to reach the top of the tree. People flooded.

The branches extend in all directions, each one is as spacious as the streets of the star, and the interlaced parts of the branches also build a platform.

Opal shouted below: "Hey! Raymond!"

Raymond has become a little black spot, waving at the top.
