Interstellar Soldier

Chapter 41
There are a total of four continents on Yanhuang Star, namely the Dongsheng Continent, the Southern Flame Continent, the West Wind Continent and the North Ice Continent.Between the four continents is the Middle Sea, which accounts for [-]% of the planet's surface area.In this vast ocean, there are thousands of islands dotted around.The theater command is located on the Iron Island at the equator.

This island is a huge military camp, and there are millions of officers and soldiers on the island at any time.

The Human Federation has a total of nine theaters, and the third theater ranks among the top three in terms of size and strength, keeping pace with the first and second theaters.Because the home galaxy is only ten light-years away from the Greenwich Meteorite Belt, and the third theater is responsible for guarding the middle of the Greenwich line of defense, so even in peacetime, the theater has more than 500 million troops, and the theater command directly controls about 500 million.

It's just that the theater command is mainly governed by civilian soldiers, with only a small number of guards.

In the center of the island stands an iron tower several thousand meters high.Standing on the top of the iron tower, you can see the Southern Flame Continent more than 1000 kilometers away.That is the office building of the Theater Command, the tallest building on Yanhuang Star, and also the symbol and symbol of the Third Theater.

There are only two offices on the top floor of the building, one belongs to the commander of the theater and the other belongs to the chief of staff of the theater. The former is ten times the size of the latter.It's just that in the past 500 years, the door of the commander's office has never been opened, and only the chief of staff of the theater works on this floor.

Three days ago, Lin Xiaoting celebrated his 510th eighth birthday, and what he used to celebrate was just a cream cake.

Just looking at his appearance, no one would believe that Lin Xiaoting is an old man over 500 years old.Although thanks to advanced medical technology, the average human life expectancy has exceeded 50 years. If anti-aging gene drugs are taken on time, and regular hibernation is added, the human life span can be extended to [-] years, but more than [-] years. There are not many birthday stars who are [-] years old, let alone Lin Xiaoting who still maintains a [-]-year-old appearance.

You know, Lin Xiaoting is busy every day, there is no holiday, let alone hibernation.

There is only one explanation, he is taking genetic medicine.Only gene medicine can make people stay young forever, but the price paid is also huge.

Nuo Da's office was empty, with only a desk and a chair.Lin Xiaoting was sitting on a chair, and in front of him was a projected conference room.Several military officers who were also projected were giving briefings one by one, and Lin Xiaoting listened carefully.

"... Chief of Staff, the situation is roughly the same. Although I have arranged for a more comprehensive search, I hope it will not be too great."

"So, the action report provided by Colonel Lin Feng is just her one-sided statement. There is no evidence to prove that the person who intercepted the 'Ice Snow Tiger' was from the Luo family?"

"Exactly." The staff officer in charge of summarizing answered very directly.

"This matter ends here. Colonel Lin Feng's action report is sealed and set as an SSS-level secret. This matter must not be leaked, do you understand?" After several staff officers answered, Lin Xiaoting rubbed his forehead vigorously, and said, "What's the situation on the 'Ice and Snow Tiger'?"

"The damage is more than [-]%, only the propulsion system can still function, and it is extremely difficult to repair."

"Can it be repaired?" Lin Xiaoting asked directly.

The staff officer hesitated for a moment before saying: "Theoretically, it can be repaired, but the Hidden Spirit Race needs to provide the original design drawings. In addition, a large amount of raw materials that are extremely difficult to obtain are required. I checked the inventory and repaired the 'ice and snow'." Tiger's possibility is extremely low."

"You mean, the key is the raw material."

The staff officer nodded, indicating that was exactly what he meant.

"Make a list."

"chief of staff……"

"I will report this matter to Lin Shuai, and through Lin Shuai's relationship, I can obtain the original design of the 'Frost Snow Tiger'. As for the raw materials, I can only find another way."

The staff officer didn't say any more, and sent Lin Xiaoting the list of raw materials for repairing the "Ice and Snow Tiger".

After glancing at it, Lin Xiaoting immediately frowned.The staff officer did not exaggerate. The raw materials needed to repair the "Ice and Snow Tiger" are not only expensive, but also extremely rare. Some of them are even unique to the Northern Alpha Galaxy. Even if you have money, you can't buy them in the Southern Alpha Galaxy. For example, "Life crystallization".This kind of crystal, which can only be found in the body of tenth-level adult silicon beasts, is a natural superconductor, and it is also an indispensable raw material for making energy adapters above S-level.There are no adult silicon beasts in the Southern Alpha galaxy, let alone adult silicon beasts above level ten.The "life crystals" that have drifted to the southern Alpha galaxy are not only of low quality, but also very expensive, and often have to be exchanged for equally precious raw materials.

To repair the "Ice and Snow Tiger", "life crystallization" is indispensable.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xiaoting typed a few times on the virtual keyboard and called up several top-secret documents.

Although the two camps have been opposed for 5000 years, the Greenwich meteorite belt that separates the northern and southern Alpha galaxies is not an insurmountable barrier.Alpha North has valuable resources, and Alpha South has outlaws.For thousands of years, the Galactic Federation has never lacked interstellar mercenaries who want money or life.These people ventured into the Greenwich meteorite belt, hunted down the silicon beasts that nested in the celestial bodies, and sold their hunts on the black market.Some large mercenary legions even went deep into the Northern Alpha galaxy, hunting down adult silicon beasts above tenth level.Regarding the black market, the military has always turned a blind eye to it, neither recognizing its legitimacy nor making efforts to crack down on it, because the military also needs raw materials from the Northern Alpha galaxy.

In fact, the military has been in touch with some large mercenary groups.

As long as these mercenary regiments do not act recklessly, the military will not only not interfere, but will also provide some necessary support, such as sending a fleet to the Greenwich Meteorite Belt.In return, these mercenary groups will report hunting activities in a timely manner, and after hunting valuable materials, they will give priority to selling them to the military.

However, not all mercenary groups understand the rules.

In order to gain more profits, some mercenary groups would secretly sell their supplies on the black market instead of selling them to the military at a lower price.

In this regard, the military also endured as much as they could, and generally would not tear themselves apart with the mercenary group.

However, the mercenary group went out hunting and hunted and returned through the Greenwich Meteorite Belt. Every move was under the nose of the military, and there were no secrets at all.

In front of the behemoth of the military, any mercenary group is as insignificant as an ant.

What Lin Xiaoting called out were several lists of supplies that would appear on the black market in the near future.

After looking carefully for a while, Lin Xiaoting had an idea in his mind.

At this time, the secretary walked into the study.

"Chief of Staff, Colonel Lin Feng has arrived."

"Remember what I said at the beginning, the meeting is adjourned." After closing the conference system, Secretary Lin Xiaoting nodded, "I'll bring the tea and cakes later, don't forget the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes."

The secretary nodded in agreement and left the office.

Before that, Lin Xiaoting ordered his secretary to prepare osmanthus cakes, because Lin Feng loved sweets when he was young, and he especially liked osmanthus cakes.

Half a minute later, the secretary brought Lin Feng in, and then went out to prepare tea and cakes.

"Hello Chief of Staff, Colonel Lin Feng, the captain of the Special Investigation Brigade, is here to report."

When Lin Feng said these words, Lin Xiaoting just stood up.He was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and the smile on his face disappeared.

"sit down."

A chair rose from the floor and appeared in front of Lin Feng.

"I read the action report," Lin Xiaoting sat down first. "Although the task has not been completed, it is a great achievement to recover the lost 'Ice and Snow Tiger'. I believe that General Lin Liexun has explained the relevant rewards to you. As for how to distribute them, you are the captain and it is up to you to decide. Listen to Lin Liexun , Second Lieutenant Yang Yi made great contributions in the operation, and after returning to the brigade, as long as he can pass the combat test, he will be promoted according to the regulations."

"It was he who recaptured the 'Ice and Snow Tiger' from the enemy, and also saved me, the 'Fire Phoenix'."

Lin Xiaoting was taken aback for a moment, and heard Lin Feng's overtones.

"I want to be with him, and..."

"Now is not the time to talk about this." Lin Xiaoting interrupted Lin Feng's words decisively.

"grandfather……"

At this time, the secretary brought in the tea and pastries, and retreated out in a very interesting manner.

"Try some, this is your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake." Lin Xiaoting let out a long breath and controlled his emotions.

"Grandpa remembers that I liked sweet-scented osmanthus cake the most when I was a child," Lin Feng said with a faint smile, "It's just that after I started changing my teeth at the age of six, I didn't like sweets anymore."

"I know what you're thinking," Lin Xiaoting glanced at Lin Feng and said, "Every time I see you, I wonder if you are Lin Liezu's daughter. You are nothing like your father, but instead It's very similar to your seventh uncle. I know that the more I object to this matter, the less you will follow my wishes. This is a major event in your life, so I don't have much to say. The Lin family and Luo Jia With the current relationship, I will not marry you into the Luo family. It’s just that you were the one who made the oath. If he can become the pilot of the ‘Ice and Snow Tiger’, I will personally officiate the wedding for you. If he doesn’t This ability can only please women, so he is not qualified to be my grandson-in-law of Lin Xiaoting."

"He will definitely become the pilot of the 'Ice and Snow Tiger'."

"hope so."

Lin Feng gritted his teeth, knowing that it was useless to say anything else, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Why, leaving in such a hurry?"

"Chief of Staff, I am the captain of the Special Investigation Brigade. The mission is over, and I should return to the brigade base as soon as possible to do my job well."

"Take this."

Lin Xiaoting threw out two egg-sized objects, Lin Feng was slightly taken aback, and immediately reached out to catch them.

"These are two C-level 'spatial storage devices', the latest scientific research products, each with a storage space of [-] cubic meters, which is just enough to hold the 'Fire Phoenix' and the 'Ice Snow Tiger', I gave it to you Blessings." Lin Xiaoting let out a long breath, and then said, "It's not that simple to be Lin Xiaoting's grandson-in-law. Even if you can pass the neuron matching, you have to repair the 'Ice Snow Tiger'."

Lin Xiaoting didn't say anything more, turned around, waved his hand, and gave the order to evict the guest.
