Master of the Stars

At a low-Earth orbit about 400 kilometers from the earth's surface, the "Jade Dragon" is moving silently.

As an old-style "Xiangyun" class inner defensive circle ship platform, since its entry into service, the "Yulong" has been in low-Earth orbit for 30 years and has had many launches of land-based guns. The overall structure is It is by no means excellent. In the non-braking energy-saving state, even if only the life support system and the observation system remain in operation, there will still be a considerable degree of mechanical noise. And once a few more modules are opened, the treatment of "the massage bed against the wall" is not a lie.

At this time, when the ship's adjutant Claire held the lever on the bulkhead, he had the illusion of holding the ***. However, he still relied on ten years of practical experience in the air and space army, skillfully used the gripper, and with only one effort, he traversed the nearly 20-meter-long passage lightly.

Originally, he could count the opening time of the automatic sensor door as well, but the door of the command cabin turned out to be an old antique that had to be entered by the password by hand. There was no way...

Even with the opening of the password door, he entered the so-called "ship bridge" smoothly. This is the most spacious place of the entire ship. It is close to the height of two floors, has a great hollow structure, and fixed positions arranged spirally on the inner wall. It also makes proper use of the hollow structure, a luxurious integrated projection. Tactical sand table.

In Claire's view, this is the most eye-catching design among such antiques. It’s no wonder that those officers and soldiers who are basically suffering from mild, moderate, and severe claustrophobia are doing everything possible to get a place on duty in the command cabin and avoid being in capsule dormitories or fish tanks. Stay in the gym with "360-degree starry sky view".

Of course, on duty is not on duty. Is it uncomfortable to play several AR battles with luxurious special effects through the tactical sand table?

But today, when Claire came in, no one was playing games, and the tactical sandbox was not even opened. There were people on about one-third of the seats in the command room, and it seemed that there was something to be done, and the indicator light flashed like a relay.

Claire glanced twice, as if the main engine was warming up.

"Good day, Commander." Claire retracted his gaze, first floated to the command seat, entered his seat, and greeted Major Cao Kai on the side.

Cao Kai and Claire are both young and vigorous. In contrast, Claire appears a bit older, largely because of his prematurely thinning hair. However, at present, Cao Kai's excessively casual sitting in a weightless environment shows a bit of laziness and twilight.

Facing Claire’s greetings, Major Cao Kai seemed to be distracted, and only responded after two seconds: "Is it daytime over Putrajaya? Hancheng is about to enter night."

"Bancheng?" Claire was stunned. Although he greeted him at the time in his hometown of Putrajaya, Major Cao Kai should be a talented person from Lake City.

Fortunately, he glanced at the platform operation diagram and quickly understood: Following the ship's trajectory, in about a few minutes, they will arrive in the sky over Hancheng.

The chief was willing to chat, and the adjutant was of course accompanied: "I haven't been to Hancheng. I heard that the ruins at the bottom of the lake there are very spectacular and it is a holy place for diving enthusiasts."

"That's Beishan Lake." Major Cao Kai's words were a bit erratic, as if there was some emotion in it. He fiddled with his fingers unconsciously, and floating on his fingertips was a "crystal ball" slightly larger than his fist. In fact, it was a fully sealed "fish tank" with a mini octopus enclosed in it, a strange translucent species. .

Claire's gaze floated over there.

As far as he knows, it was delivered in the name of "scientific research," and it was passed into the hands of Major Cao Kai under the "borrowing" procedure, and it was finally implemented as a "pet". Strictly according to the process, dozens of people in scientific research, logistics, and command systems can be eaten and killed together, but who cares?

The most glorious days of the old-fashioned ship platform of the "Xiangyun" class have passed. Back then, they were used as space cannons to bombard the "nests" of aberrant species from long-range, sweeping away individuals of the tyrannical aberrant species in the atmosphere, and made immortal feats for the construction of the human defense system in the "Aberration Age". But now, compared to the "juniors" who can sail freely in the solar system, they are indeed old and can only exist as training ships and pension ships.

The "Jade Dragon" is particularly unfortunate. Due to the need to take care of dual-use scientific research projects, even the qualifications of recruits for training have been lost. Now all that remains here are transferred in accordance with the procedures, and they are ready to promote or retire if they have enough years of experience. Mobile personnel.

His commander, Major Cao Kai, was a hapless man who was close to retiring when he was young. God knows why.

In such an environment, no one cares about the small branches.

In fact, in the space life where the birds are fading out, you can see all the novelties with a clear eye. The little gadget that doesn't know how to survive in the sealed fish tank, even Claire himself is a little moved, and has already considered: Major Cao Kai was tired of playing for a while, maybe he could borrow it for a few days.

Of course not now. In fact, his adjutant was just transferred here just a few days ago, and he is still not close enough with Major Cao Kai and those old men.

For example, now, he hesitated for a while before he decided to make a little joke to get closer: "What Hancheng...should be a special memory for the sir?"

"Very special."

Cao Kai twitched the corners of his mouth, and then voluntarily moved to the topic: "It's not your duty time now. Is there anything wrong?"

Claire shrugged: "It's just a little sensitive to'idling jitter'... are we going to brake?"

"Well, the orbital height of the platform is currently 392 kilometers. The research institute hopes to increase it to more than 428 kilometers to optimize the observation angle. The ground process has been completed."

The words of the father of the gold master are really good.

Of course, Claire did not say this. After all, the big money owner who bears 75% of the platform's operating costs has the right to be respected.

Claire didn't take this seriously. For the Air Force, it was already the interstellar age. That is, this kind of old platform, replaced by those ships that roam freely in the solar system, and can maneuver for hundreds or thousands of kilometers, which is a fart!

"Do I need to do anything?"

"It's not you on duty, what can you do!"

Major Cao Kai said casually, Claire was slightly embarrassed, and could only explain it in his heart: This is probably a sign of a closer relationship between the two parties.

Fortunately, Major Cao Kai has a follow-up: "Since you have said that, it happens to help me to supervise them to do a comprehensive warm-up test. In addition to the engine, other systems should also be temporarily awakened to clarify the status and report the test results... this Probably my last signature document in the military."

Claire really didn't know what to answer, so she could only respond, "Yes, sir."

At exactly this time, the non-commissioned officer on the opposite plane reported: "The main gun power-on test is complete, do you continue to charge?"

Claire was taken aback: "The main gun?!"
