Luo Hua gently put down the pipe, knocked on the table next to him, and after a little thought, his right hand brushed a few lines on the virtual screen with an electronic pen without trembling, and then looked at the screen with satisfaction.

Behind him, the female secretary exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, that's so cute." ”

She seemed to want to touch the girl in a black satin dress on the screen with her hand, and suddenly remembered that it was just a screen, and said with a smile: "The director's level of painting is getting higher and higher, this girl is lifelike, it's so cute." ”

Luo Hua didn't speak, just looked at the screen silently, with a faint smile on his face, just like a kind father.

The female secretary couldn't help asking, "Mr. Director, is this girl someone you have ever seen, or is it something you imagined?" ”

"Hehe, imagined, in this world, where is such a cute girl?"

Listening to his words, the female secretary glanced at the old director with some concern, for a period of time, the old director would draw on the virtual screen when he was fine, from the bad graffiti at the beginning to the current lifelike, his level of painting is getting higher and higher. However, each time he paints the same image, a fair-skinned, blue-eyed girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in various dresses.

The director can't be suffering from some kind of paranoia, right...... She thought with a wistful thought in her heart.

In the past few months, the Federation has developed very rapidly after the Great War. In particular, after the director handed over the design drawings of the advanced mecha and warships that he didn't know where to get them, to the heavy industry manufacturing company directly under the Ministry of National Defense, and vigorously developed and manufactured them, as the new warships went off the assembly line, incorporated into the main fleet, and sailed to the surrounding galaxies under the control of the federal soldiers, they easily occupied many habitable planets, making the number of controllable planets of the Federation rapidly expand from less than 100 before the war to more than 180 now.

And the numbers are constantly increasing.

Due to the high standard of living, low taxes, and strong military power of the British Commonwealth, the surrounding planets are constantly hoping to join this new country. After the victory in the Great War, the Federation fleet easily occupied these planets with almost no soldiers. And the people on these planets are also extremely cooperative, and they went to the departments designated by the Federation to install the chips smoothly. After all the people on these planets have installed the chips, these planets and the people will become the most loyal part of the Federation, and as long as there is a super central light brain [Cherry], there will be absolutely no problems.

And because of the existence of chips, government personnel, whether they are ordinary civil servants or the president of the federal government, will not have the problems that have been repeatedly banned in history such as corruption and bribery, corpse vegetarian meals, and correspondingly, their salary income far exceeds that of ordinary people. But even so, only a few people are willing to apply for the civil service, after all, in the British Commonwealth, civil servants have high salaries and good salaries, but their work is not so easy to complete. In particular, some leadership positions will be selected by the corresponding people every quarter, and if you work hard during your reign, you can get high scores; At the same time, there is also the score of the central light brain [cherry] and the superior leader, and the three scores together are the total score of the official's assessment. If you have a high score, you can choose to be promoted or retained, while if you have a low score, you will either be promoted or demoted.

Under this system, as long as you want to develop in the political circles, you will abide by your duty and work hard for the development of the Federation. As a result, if the officials do their jobs well, and the people are dedicated to the country under low taxes, and the whole people are united, why should the whole country not develop?

"At this rate of development, maybe in a hundred years at most, the British and Benefit Federation will become the next Gaia Empire......" The secretary thought silently in his heart, full of expectations for the future.

At this moment, the light brain in front of the director made a "dididi" sound. The whole voice represents an emergency signal coming in, not through the secretary, but directly to the director's light brain.

The electronic pen in Luo Hua's hand paused slightly, he turned on his light brain, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”

"Report to the Director, we have found a special signal in the Tianxun network, which is very similar to the signal frequency change in the highest instructions of the Authority!"

Luo Hua's complexion changed instantly, and he said urgently: "Send me the recorded signal band and location immediately." ”

"Yes, Director!"

While receiving the data, Luo Hua said to the secretary behind him: "You go out first, remember to close the door." ”

The secretary rarely saw the director have such a tense moment, even when the federation was not established and the director was still the chairman of the cherry group, he did not change color in the slightest in the face of the joint oppression of several multinational giants. And now it's strained because of a piece of data.

But she didn't say much, nodded and walked briskly out of the office.

After she left, Luo Hua didn't feel at ease, but got up and checked the door, and only came to the light brain after making sure it was closed.

"Luo Hua, have you finally caught that signal?"

A faint and soft, girl-like voice like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl resounded in the office.

Luo Hua said respectfully: "Yes, Lord." Based on the change in the frequency of the received signal, there is a 90% chance that it will be the kind of signal you are talking about. ”

After he finished speaking, the light brain indicator in front of him flashed a few times.

Then, the female voice seemed to be very happy: "Indeed, they have finally been exposed, it is really in vain that I have waited for all these years." ”

Luo Hua chuckled in his heart, he seemed to feel that he was about to be separated from the existence that had single-handedly created all this. As soon as he thought of this, his heart beat a little faster, and he said with some sadness: "Lord...... Are you leaving? ”

"yes, I've been waiting for them to appear. But Luo Hua, you don't have to worry about anything, I will leave a virtual personality here to continue my work, and there will be no problems with the Federation. It's just that if the situation of the last war happens again, I won't be able to help you again. ”

Luo Hua's heart twitched, for some reason, he was reluctant to leave this magical existence. It was like a father looking at his daughter who was about to leave for a long time.

"Did you paint this picture?"

The girl in a silk satin dress he had drawn before reappeared on the screen, Luo Hua nodded, and wanted to say something but felt like his throat was blocked, and he couldn't say anything.

"Is it me?" The voice said leisurely, "It's beautiful and cute, thank you." Don't be sad, Luo Hua, I'll be fine, maybe it won't be long before I'll be back. Alright, I'm leaving, goodbye......"

The voice disappeared suddenly, and Luo Hua felt that something in his heart suddenly disappeared.

"Will you see you again...... Definitely! ”

……

North of the Milky Way's Tianhe, near the remote galaxies in the west, a battle is taking place at this time, which is not too big and not too small. Why do you say this, it is still necessary to talk about the strength of the two sides. One of the sides had more than 6,000 warships, which should be considered a large-scale battle. However, their opponent was only one ship, and this time the scale of the battle was reduced. But why should one warship fight against six thousand warships?

But it was true, the giant battleship not only rushed fearlessly in the face of 6,000 warships, but also chased after those warships.

It is extremely strange that as soon as the giant battleship gets close to a certain range of the enemy battleship, the battleship that is fleeing frantically will quickly slow down, and then break away from the original battle formation and follow the giant battleship instead, as if they belong to the same fleet. Gradually, the number of warships in that fleet became smaller and smaller, and the number of warships that followed the giant ships increased.

"Damn, damn it, damn it!"

In the command room of the fleet's flagship, a woman looks at the battleships that follow the giant ship on the screen, and curses loudly with a distorted face.

Although she looks good, her face is old, like an ordinary woman in her forties and fifties. However, even in her old age, she has a strong decoration on her face, and it is extremely fashionable to wear clothes, and she is not wearing a military uniform.

Beside her, another woman stood. No, it should be said that it is a girl.

She doesn't look very old, she is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and she is dressed very ordinarily, but her appearance is extremely beautiful, her skin is fair and silky, the bridge of her nose is high, and above her clear eyes are two heroic sword eyebrows, which make her look heroic and give people the illusion that a sword is out of the sheath.

At this time, she did not panic in the slightest, nor did she curse hysterically like a woman with heavy makeup. Looking at the screen, she frowned and said, "Sister, who is in that spaceship?" Why did our warships lose contact one by one and turn to the enemy's camp? ”

The woman with heavy makeup gasped, and her eyebrows wrinkled tightly: "These damn dogs' mothers, damn it, damn it, they all deserve to go to hell!" ”

The sword-eyed girl shook her head, took out a pot of iced coffee from the refrigerator next to her, poured a cup and handed it to the woman with heavy makeup.

After drinking all the iced coffee, her mood improved a little, but her eyebrows were still tightly wrinkled.

"If I'm not mistaken, that giant ship is the culprit responsible for the disappearance of those fleets over the years! It is no wonder that every few months, a fleet goes missing, whether it is the main fleet of those countries or the passing commercial fleet, they all disappear without a trace in the starry sky, and the reason cannot be found. I didn't expect such a strange thing to happen! ”

The woman's face with heavy makeup was full of melancholy: "I originally thought that I could make a lot of money on this trip, but unfortunately, I can't afford to spend my life if I have money...... I'm sorry for everyone, I shouldn't have taken on the next mission. After a slight pause, she said sadly: "I never thought that their electromagnetic interference would be so far. Even if the Tianxun network has just been laid here, we can't ask for help from the outside world. You can't even get this horrible news out there! In that ship...... What is it. ”

The sword-eyed girl also looked worried.

They belong to an organization called the "Flaming Rose" mercenary group, and unlike those small mercenary groups, the services they provide are real mercenary business. Generally speaking, there are only two kinds, the first is to protect the business, such as protecting the trade fleet, protecting an important target, and so on; And the other kind of business is war. For example, if two countries go to war, they can accept the employment of one of them and fight for them!

In other words, they are a real, large mercenary group with great strength!

Originally, they were operating in the central region of the Northern Universe, but this time they accepted a escort mission to protect a fleet of 30,000 transport ships to the Northwest Regions. The mission was completed, but on the way back, they encountered a lone giant ship coming at them.

At first they didn't pay attention to it, just marveling at the enormity of the battleship. But soon, they tasted the bitterness, and before the giant ship could come within range of their main guns, the closest ships to the enemy "defected" and became part of the enemy.

Whether it was a sword-eyebrow girl or a woman with heavy makeup, they all thought it was a conspiracy to rebel.

But as more and more "mutiny" warships were added, including some warships that they thought were absolutely impossible to mutiny, the two realized that something was wrong, but time was over.

"No, it will never work like this!"

The woman with heavy makeup walked back and forth a few steps, and suddenly raised her voice: "Communication soldier, send a communication request to the enemy, I need to know their purpose!" Robbecca, come with me and meet this strange and terrifying creature! ”
