Ten minutes later, Xiao Ran rubbed his red cheeks and walked into the dimly lit bridge and sat down next to the captain's special seat. At this time, Brigadier General Perry had already rested on the bridge and would not be back in a few hours. Xiao Ran naturally came here to let Brigadier General Perry, who can be regarded as an old guy, take a good rest and come over to take over the shift.
Sitting on the chair, he remembered how he had just kissed Sheryl, but was driven out by the other party holding his face with both hands. He also smiled bitterly and shook his head.
After seeing Xiao Ran, an adjutant in the bridge quickly ran over and saluted a military salute in front of Xiao Ran: "General."
Xiao Ran nodded and became serious. "How is the recovery of battle-damaged aircraft and wounded?"
"All have been contained."
"How many people were sacrificed and what were the losses?" Xiao Ran turned to look at the adjutant.
"The entire fighter fleet lost 86 people and injured 125, of which 14 were seriously injured. 324 fighter aircraft were lost and 160 could be repaired after recovery. One battleship was sunk, two high-speed attack ships were sunk, and another 13 battleships suffered minor losses. A total of 418 fleet members died in the line of duty and 256 were injured."
Xiao Ran listened to the numbers reported by the adjutant one by one. He closed his eyes and leaned on the backrest and exhaled deeply. He shook his head to see that such a huge loss occurred in such a short period of time. He was silent for a while and then slowly said, "The treatment of the injured must keep up. There must not be more casualties. List the sacrificed soldiers. They are all heroes of the ship and heroes of mankind. We will provide subsidies to the highest extent possible."
"Yes, after the statistics are completed, I will send the list to the Unified Army headquarters."
Xiao Ran rubbed his temples and asked, "How are the insects doing?"
"Basically, they have entered Gallo 4. Only a small number of bugs and battleships are left in the universe. No signs of war with us were found. Those on the two landing ships did not do anything special, but the group of people who came from Galaxy hoped to meet the general."
"They want to see me?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "In what name?"
The adjutant said, "The identities of the members of the group have been investigated. I hope to talk to the general about the situation investigated at Galaxy Fleet."
Xiao Ran laughed and asked, "They don't know my identity, do they?"
The adjutant shook his head. "All information about the general is within the scope of the gag order. I have been in contact with these people for this period of time, so I am sure they do not know the general's identity."
Xiao Ran held his chin and thought, and nodded after a few minutes. "Agree to their request, but don't reply to them so quickly, and limit the number of people. The best place is on this ship. I'll leave this matter to you to arrange. Anyway, the most important thing is not to let them know about me."
"Yes, General!"
Xiao Ran nodded and said, "How is the situation with Investigation Team 117?"
"MACROSS-class Battleship of the 117th Regiment has been discovered on Gallo 4, and several other shipwrecks have also been discovered in the universe. People have been sent inside to collect data."
"Have you discovered the location of MACROSS-class Battleship?" Xiao Ran glanced at the adjutant, touched his chin and started thinking, "Scrap Dealer has never used this skill. One reason is that there is no suitable recovery one. There are not so many Merit Points is the second The reason is that low-level recycling has little value, and there are so many high-level recycling Merit Points. Now there are many Merit Points, and they are also Macross-class battleships. Who knows what will be recycled. Although what you can get depends on luck, you can still give it a try."
"I'm afraid that if I just recycle a few useless Part Fragment, I'll lose money. The price of a battleship is 20,000 Merit Points." Xiao Ran unconsciously glanced at the Merit Points he owned. The number, the number of more than 70,000, instantly gave him a lot of confidence, and he clapped his hands gently. "It's done, I have to try to see if I can get anything out, and I also have the Luck skill. No matter how unlucky it is, I won't just recover a few fragments."
Before deciding what to do, Xiao Ran may hesitate, think about the pros and cons, and struggle in his heart, but once he decides what to do, Xiao Ran will not hesitate for one more minute. Even if he paid 20,000 Merit Points and got some junk, he will never regret it.
Xiao Ran suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going to go to that MACROSS-class Battleship to take a look and prepare."
The adjutant was stunned for a moment and said quickly, "General, the situation there has not yet been determined. Is it too dangerous to continue like this?"
"The danger I encounter is danger, and my life is life?" Xiao Ran glanced at the adjutant, shook his head, and said calmly, "Those investigators who have gone in are also taking risks to investigate the situation inside. What do they and I have to do? Don't say more and prepare immediately."
The adjutant opened his mouth, but finally nodded. "Yes, general, I will send a Landing Force with the general."
Xiao Ran nodded and agreed with the adjutant's words, because he found that the adjutant's face was extremely embarrassed when he said this. If Xiao Ran refused, he believed that the adjutant would definitely use safety issues to refuse Xiao Ran's request to go to Gallo 4 again.
"There's no need to wake up Brigadier General Perry. If you need anything, just contact me."
The adjutant nodded and immediately turned around and left to get ready. Ten minutes later, Xiao Ran got on a small Transport Aircraft wearing combat uniforms. As soon as he ejected from the battleship, several fighters The aircraft formation and several Geradi combat formations followed up, protecting the small Transport Aircraft that Xiao Ran was riding on and directly entered Gallo 4.
When Transport Aircraft landed on Gallo 4, Xiao Ran came down from Transport Aircraft and saw the towering huge battleships. One was a thousand-meter-level super-large battleship, and the other was only a human being only more than one meter tall. In comparison, Xiao Ran was as small as an ant.
Many places on the outer shell of the battleship are filled with rust and have sprouted countless moss. The tattered appearance makes people unable to believe that this is the most powerful MACROSS-class Battleship in mankind. However, it can also be seen from the scars on this battleship. What kind of battles did this battleship go through to become what it is now, and how it was forgotten here forever.
A dozen soldiers walked in front with weapons, Xiao Ran followed behind these soldiers, and behind Xiao Ran were a dozen soldiers who protected him from the surroundings. Fighters were circling in the sky. On the ground were the transformed fighter planes and Geradi's combat capsule protecting them. The safety of Xiao Ran was completely put in the most urgent position, and everyone was on guard against any situation that might happen around them.
Nearly a hundred investigators had already entered the battleship, and Xiao Ran did not interrupt the work of these investigators at this time. Under the protection of the soldiers, he walked into a steel door that had been opened by previous investigators and walked in. After passing through a long passage that was brightly lit by the soldiers, he entered a slightly more spacious place.
Along the way, Xiao Ran also saw many completely decomposed corpses, as well as rooms that could barely be seen as what they were originally used for. From time to time, he would meet a few people from Investigation Team's group, and Xiao Ran would stop to ask them if they had found anything.
Along the way, Xiao Ran would also pay great attention to what was in each room, completely treating himself as a real investigator, really paying attention to something and investigating something, but what Xiao Ran was looking for were the photos of Sheryl and Lanka's relatives left on the ship.
But maybe it was bad luck. For almost two hours, Xiao Ran and the soldiers protecting him climbed all the way to the bridge but did not find what he was looking for. Finally, he ordered the people of Investigation Team to recycle everything that could be recovered on the ship, and contacted the adjutant on MACROSS-class Battleship in the universe to ask him to send more personnel to cooperate.
Coming to the bridge of this damaged battleship, Xiao Ran also saw a lot of dead bones here. They were still wearing Unified Army military uniforms from more than ten years ago. They even saw a general, of course a dead general. Of course, there were also more than a dozen investigators here.
At that time, the entire Investigation Team 117 was attacked by insects. The reason was entirely because Lanka's singing attracted the insects, which eventually caused a misunderstanding and caused the two sides to start a war. In that battle, the entire Investigation Team 117 suffered a devastating blow, and less than one person survived.
It was this battle that made Grey find out that there were people who could control bugs with singing. While she hated bugs and destroyed everything for her, she also began to be deeply fascinated by the power of bugs. Grey, who should have been burned to death in a fire, was saved by Galaxy Fleet's people and transformed to make her live again. From that time on, a huge conspiracy shrouded Galaxy Fleet, Fleet 25 and bugs.
It can be said that the destruction of the 117th Regiment is the starting point of the entire plot of Super Dimension Fortress Frontier.
When Xiao Ran stood on the bridge of the battleship, he was shocked to find that he had no idea how to use the skill Scrap Dealer, let alone what the ship would look like after using this skill.
"I should have found D-class mecha to try it." Xiao Ran frowned, walked to the activated bridge main console, put his hand on it, and tried to use the skill.
"Scrap Dealer!"
"Ding, do you want to spend 20000 Merit Points to recycle this battleship? There is a certain chance that the plug-in, Part Fragment and complete components can be decomposed and recycled. The recycled warship will not disappear or crash due to skills, but the recycled plug-ins and components will cause the corresponding modules of the battleship to be damaged or lost."
