The galaxy hopper aboard Augustus, Lisa and others landed at the Stillling Skyport in the capital city of Korhal IV after three days of time travel. Without exception, everyone had never been to Korhal IV.
Everyone was stunned when they walked down the ramp of the Galaxy Hopper.
The majestic terminal of Stillling Skyport is a building made of white steel frame and large color-changing glass cubes. The interior is decorated with black aluminum alloy guardrails and travertine marble.
Passengers can see the gentle sun of Kehal IV and the lush vegetation planted in the stair aisles through the curtain wall-style glass windows when they step into it. Suspended intelligent robots and turbine drones are cleaning the mirror-like interior all the time.
On the ground and through glass windows, every Keha man is well-dressed and speaks elegantly.
In order not to attract attention, Augustus today only wore a dark brown square-necked long-sleeved coat, crisp trousers, and a pair of blue and black striped sneakers. He looked like a young student. And Li
Sha was wearing a knee-length light yellow pleated skirt, a black cotton short-sleeved T-shirt on her upper body, and a leather bag that was actually a medical bag across her waist.
Conor Ward, who is tall and dark-skinned, wears a black short-sleeved leather vest and tattered jeans. On his nose that is a little crooked due to being broken in the battle, there are a pair of half-open light blue eyes.
It gives people a sinister feeling, and there is a skull tattoo of the devil in heaven on the exposed arm.
If Ward stood in front of Augustus like a burly and fierce bodyguard, then Harnack and Zander, wearing only a leather jacket and casual loose trousers, were like two prairie dogs who had just crawled out of their burrows.
Let out an exclamation of "Ah——".
Augustus did not wait too long in the terminal. Soon, a group of men wearing security uniforms and butler uniforms surrounded a burly man found them. The fronts of their coats were embroidered with gold thread.
The golden wolf head is the emblem of the Mengsk family.
The leader is Acton Field, the security captain of the Mengsk family, and one of Angus's most trusted people. He has stayed with the Mengsk family for many years and almost watched Augustus and his sister grow up.
of.
“You boy, none of the Mengsk children are ordinary people.” Acton and Augustus hugged each other and patted each other’s shoulders.
“Where are mother and Dorothy?” Augustus smiled and asked.
"They are still in the White Stone Castle in the mountains north of Stillling, remember? It's where your grandfather died," Acton said.
"I still remember him." A vague image appeared in Augustus's mind. The grandfather in his memory was very tall, but his voice and smile were far away. The Mengsk family still continued the tradition of the royal family in the Earth Age. Angus
It was in memory of his father that he gave the name Augustus to his youngest son.
Angus used an entire security force, three Type 58 Land Cougar armored vehicles and twelve Vulture vehicles to escort his son.
Vulture motorcycles were guarding three armored vehicles in a Z-shaped pattern. One of the armored vehicles carried Augustus and others, while the other two were full of soldiers with loaded guns and live ammunition.
This is not pathological over-protection. Although the power of the Mengsk family in Korhal is deeply rooted and unshakable like the towering trees rooted in Korhal, some potential business rivals and political opponents of Angus often hire assassins to assassinate them.
One of the few members of this family.
Considering the astonishing power and assets of the Mengsk family, such protection is indispensable even to deal with kidnapping and harassment.
Augustus was sitting in the back seat of one of the Jaguar armored vehicles. At this time, he was sitting by the window. He turned his head and stared out the window through the bulletproof glass a few feet behind. He was fast moving away.
The scene. A serious-looking Acton and a somewhat embarrassed Lisa were sitting next to Augustus.
“I heard from your mother that you are ready to retire?” Acton said.
"Yes, and I'm not going to delay it until next year. The war is over. I submitted my retirement papers last weekend, but they haven't been approved yet." Augustus said, "If everything goes well, I will leave next month."
I can retire."
Just like his brother Arcturus, Augustus has no nostalgia for the army. Now Augustus is already a second lieutenant, even if he will probably become a second lieutenant next year when the war is completely over.
School Officer, he doesn't want to stay any longer.
His biological father is about to rebel, and the entire planet is about to undergo a revolution. If he doesn't run away quickly, is he going to stay in the army and wait to die?
The only thing Augustus was thinking about now was his demon in heaven, otherwise he wouldn't be planning to return to Meinhof after Christmas.
"Okay, your father needs a helper." Acton nodded: "He is still very young, and his hair is almost full of gray."
“Well...Field, where are we going, Stillling City or White Castle?” Augustus asked.
“Go to your mother...she misses you so much.” Acton
Due to the local government's environmental protection policy, the Stillling Skyport is actually far outside the city circle. After leaving the Skyport, the Mengsk family's fleet has to drive for a while to reach a more remote destination.
The escorted convoy sped along the traffic arteries outside the Stillling city circle, passing through the rural fields between the silver-gray composite industrial park and the city circle.
It was autumn at this time, and the green plants on both sides of the main road were still green. And the vast wheat fields further away were still rendered luxuriously golden by the thick autumn atmosphere. The sky was as clear as a wash, and the flowing clouds seemed to be passing by.
The flying horses look like the world depicted in pastoral oil paintings.
Unlike other main star worlds in the Tyranid Federation that focus on economic development and ignore environmental pollution problems, Korhal IV has revised the latest air purification regulations and introduced a large amount of renewable resources with the foresight. Therefore, Korhal is maintaining
Although technology and industry are highly developed, it is still a beautiful and green world.
Augustus continued to look at the scenery outside the window. At this time, the pastoral fields and dense forests had faded away, and the hills to the south of Stillling City gradually expanded in his eyes.
Many dense silver light spots can be seen in the gaps between the hills, which are reflections of metal and glass. Augustus seems to have been able to see the gorgeous neon lights of Steelling and the huge holographic screens and billboards, and heard
A vibrant buzz.
The convoy drove onto a silver-gray alloy bridge erected on the hills. As the slope continued to rise, the entire city of Stillling could be seen.
Stillling seems to be a city made of mercury. The shining metal and glass reflect dazzling silver light in the sun, and the bridge network and traffic arteries that run through the entire city seem to be dense and clear in the mercury world.
Black lines.
In the center of the city, sky-high buildings stand among the silver-gray buildings. These majestic and majestic buildings have clear-cut polyhedral shapes and other geometric structures beyond the limits of human imagination, carrying the dream of science and technology.
and the beauty of the future world.
In Augustus' memory, Stillling at night was as brilliant as summer fireworks. The sea of neon lights and countless IAA projection screens converged into a sea of light, extending to the mountains to the south of the city and the coast to the north. Gorgeous
The lights reached up to the sky and reflected zigzag among the clouds, like clouds.
