Reliable Swann
On the three-dimensional Holographic Projection star map composed of green lines, the course of Norad II 2 is set as a straight line. The jumping numbers on it show that the battleship has jumped to nine galaxies dozens of light years away.
As the battleship shuddered, brilliant starlight came into view.
Almost at the same time, Hyperion and Steel Justice jumped over, and hundreds of warships of various models surrounded them like stars over the moon.
"Hyperion called Norad II. Our shields were exhausted, no one died, and the losses were controlled within an acceptable range. There was only one chef in the space. He sprained his foot while jumping. Maybe I shouldn't mention it to make him look embarrassed. The baked snails made by the good guy Peter are quite good with Porter wine." Raynor said.
"The bad news is that before the recharging is completed, the Hyperion can only rely on its own armor to resist the attack."
"I am Charles·Chuck·Matt Horner. Steel Justice is seriously damaged. Unless it comes to port for repairs, we will have to completely abandon this battleship after at most two more battles like the Battle of Rope Rock System."
Charles said, "Steel Justice's main jump drive was damaged in the battle. Even according to our jump technician's most optimistic estimate, the broken thing being repaired can only support Long-Range Jump three times."
"We are able to use a second set of backup jump drives, but this set of drives can only perform short jumps between galaxies and emergency jumps where the destination cannot be determined."
"Shit, if I see Edmond·Duke, I will definitely stuff his head into his own ass." In summary, Charles said, "I swear I will let him clean the deck of Steel Justice all day long until I am satisfied."
"We still have three hours. The preparation time is three hours and twenty-six minutes. This is the time for Duke and Fleets to locate our position again and complete the jump. The actual situation is that their speed The speed may be much faster." Augustus said to them, "Hurry up and repair it, Jim, let Swann bring people to Norad II."
"Okay, I'll call him right away." Raynor put on a Revolutionary Army command hat and left. It was a large retro-style boat cap.
"Charles, Steel Justice also need to immediately inspect the ship's facilities and try to find the internal signal tracker. Later I will send Lieutenant Kerrigan to your battleship. The intelligence shows that there is a traitor among you." Augustus said.
"Yes, because even I can't be sure how many of those people are sincerely willing to follow us." Charles asked, "But what are you going to do? Torture them or let them report each other? To be honest, these methods are not very effective."
"Lieutenant Kerrigan is a powerful Psionics warrior. She will use telepathy to test those with evil intentions one by one." Augustus looked at Kerrigan: "First of all, we start with the one with the highest military rank."
"Okay." There was no expression on Charles's face with thick beard.
"I have no objection." He said frankly, "Everyone, including me, should be examined before proving my innocence."
"After this, I will personally execute the traitor. We once stayed at a Outer Colonies for a day and left those who were unwilling to wander with Steel Justice. I gave them a chance to choose."
"." After Kerrigan said there was a traitor on Steel Justice, everyone including Charles was on Augustus's suspicion list. "You should execute the traitor in front of everyone. But we are Revolutionary Army, so there is no need to be so cruel."
"Just throw them into space and tell everyone that the traitors have been executed. There is no need to execute them in public, because we cannot use torture to intimidate those aspiring people who join the liberation movement because of their progressive ideas and revolutionary enthusiasm."
While waiting for Swann to arrive at Norad II in a spaceship, Warfield took a broken Alpha Squadron flag and walked up to Augustus.
This is a flag with a red background, with lace outlined in gold on the edge, and in the middle of the triangular shape is the iconic spread-winged eagle of Alpha Squadron, which is also the symbol of the human race in StarCraft Game.
The flag is now in dilapidated condition, and the Alpha Squadron soldiers aboard the Norad II must have suffered the same fate.
"This ship is truly yours now."
Warfield said to Augustus, "My troops are still cleaning up the remaining Alpha Squadron soldiers in this battleship. They are still numerous and scattered in various cabins, hatchways and even hatches, but these people are no longer a threat."
During the period when Norad II jumped into the hyperspace channel and traveled at super-light speed, Warfield led his troops to be physically and mentally exhausted after more than three hours of brutal fighting, but their victory was enough to make these brave warriors proud.
"I never doubted that you would fail, Warfield." Augustus said.
"If I fail, then I have died." Warfield smiled.
"As long as you don't want to die, no one can take your life away." Augustus said firmly.
"Haha. But Duke is still following us. Have you found out the reason?" Warfield asked.
"I guess it's because you didn't check Steel Justice thoroughly enough or you were negligent when you took it away, so you didn't screen out its internal signal tracking and positioning device. In other words, the person responsible for this matter is questionable."
"Boss, I heard that you have a little trouble here." Swann walked over with a tool box, followed by a dozen engineers. Many of these engineers are relatives of Swann, who look burly and strong. "I don't know what happened. The battle in space is too fierce, but all we can do is keep tinkering, and then it's a terrifying wait."
"I personally watched the fighter planes in Hyperion leave the hangar and never come back until the jump. Some of those children were only eighteen years old, only a little younger than you." Swann wiped his eyes, but did not continue.
"Uh, let's not talk about that. I mean, when can we start working?"
Augustus was silent for a while, without making any comment. "I want you to find all the trackers hidden in the number Norad II. These trackers may all look different, but as long as one is missed, Duke will always be able to find and kill us completely after our next jump."
"Now, Swann, hurry up, your job is to save other people."
"I think I understand what you mean." Swann said, "Umojan's engineers spent the same time as repairing Hyperion to inspect and remove the hidden tracking facilities inside. These gadgets may be just a button battery or a record player or even the toilet under your butt."
"But fortunately there are some Umojan engineers in my team who have participated in the maintenance of the Hyperion. I was once told that although Confederacy will use many such gadgets to monitor their own ships, the location of the tracking equipment in each battlecruiser is almost the same." He said.
"Maybe the engineers who designed this tracking system couldn't think of so many fantastic locations, or maybe they were just doing it because the placement of these tracking devices wasn't on the list of important things to note."
"I thought about it, this shouldn't be difficult. I'll send some more engineers to Steel Justice right away. Well, it doesn't take too many, thirteen or four people are enough."
