Chapter 147 Construction of 'Velsa' Military Maintenance Plant
Standing in front of everyone, Hastings, like all the White Tiger Knights, has an extremely handsome face, especially the straight and tall classical nose with a perfect angle. His hair is slightly curly and light chestnut.
With his hair in a bun and an ocher-colored lapel robe, in the eyes of 14-year-old Yerou, he looked much older than Sukti in his thirties, but he was full of the charm of a mature man.
"Hastin, I didn't expect you to come." Sukti was like a little girl in front of her husband, with an air of admiration and coquettishness.
"I'll take you home."
Before leaving, Hastings took Sukti's hand in a graceful manner and walked to the large terrace of the building facing the Hauervatat Sea, where the scenery is open and there are many beautiful plants.<
/p>
"Come on! Come on!"
"Follow them quickly!"
"Quick! Come here!"
These young girls all trotted all the way, chasing them gently like a group of little rabbits.
Then, they put their little faces next to the exquisite lattice windows. They have never seen their parents, let alone the love between men and women.
They secretly laughed, joked softly with each other, and said "shhh" to keep quiet. These girls come from various ethnic groups. They are not the palace maids in "Zezena" and do not need to be strictly divided according to ethnic groups. So all kinds of human races
The hair color and skin color all come together, making it look particularly interesting.
Sukti rested her head on her husband's shoulder. This was such a beautiful scene that Yerou would never forget it for a long time.
Gentle breeze blew the palms, and the light and shadow swayed on the lattice windows where they were secretly hiding, like a dream.
Hastings looked down at Sukti, with tenderness in his blue eyes. A gust of sea breeze blew over her veil. Fortunately, the hairpins fixed the sides, and he gently put it on her again.
Is this love?
Yerou watched all this with innocent eyes of a young girl, and this moment was deeply engraved in her heart.
Not long after, the teacher of the floral art group changed to a palace maid with light blond hair. Although she was still a beauty with skin as white as snow, she was not as gentle and lovely as Sukti, and was a bit cold.
"Where's Sukti? Has she gone to teach flower art somewhere else?" Yerou asked her curiously, but she frowned and refused to say anything.
After her repeated questioning, the palace maid showed a sad expression.
"She won't come again, she's dead."
All the girls present were frightened, and Yerou was stunned into silence. She heard sobbing.
"After receiving the notice of her husband's death in action, Sukti was devastated, and the system sent her to the 'Palace of Echoes' at the north corner of Foch Palace in White House, which is the latest psychological rehabilitation center set up for the widows of high-ranking commanders who died in action.
, of course they must be palace maids... so that they can calm down and remarry others in a happy mood again..."
The blonde palace maid narrated numbly:
"As a result, in the early morning of the second day after she went to the Palace of Echoes, people found her floating body on the sea. She must have jumped into the sea at night when no one was prepared..."
After listening to the narration, Yerou seemed to see a slender and graceful female corpse floating on the blue sea waves on the edge of the cliff under the dim light of the morning. She saw death...
From then on, when she was making flower arrangements, she always had an unspeakable feeling in her heart...
This was prepared for the dead. She didn't expect that youth and beauty could be so fragile and broken with a single blow. Looking at the place where they stood, she felt sad and couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
In her depression, she ended her flower weaving for a year.
She did not want to continue. Beautiful flowers are prepared for the dead, just like young girls. They marry a man who is ten years older than themselves. In order to give birth to the next generation of warriors, many Platonic women become widows and remarry, as if
Objects without emotion...
In the darkness, Yerou sat on the big bed and hugged her knees tightly.
Sukti and Hastings had at least a brief moment of happiness, truly loving each other and giving each other their sincerity. But she and Kalki...his sincerity had never been given to her...
She shed tears.
Red dwarfs, red giants, white dwarfs, white giants, asteroid belts, dark nebulae... and various areas, red cluster areas, etc. form various magnetic fields, space gravitational fields and electron pulse fields.
These all flashed by in the space around the Plato fleet. After 36 days of voyage, the huge transport fleet escorted by the White Tiger Fleet finally arrived at the Keto Base.
The streamlined "Lucky Goddess" slowly landed at the airport of the newly built Keto base. At the same time, hundreds of ships of various types descended from the sky in dense masses like falling leaves.
The two captains Kalki and Krishna walked off the flagship with their generals in a grand manner. There are elements of feudalism remaining in Plato's military aristocracy. When the grand captain is absent, the captain is the supreme commander.<
/p>
"The air of Ceto..." Kalki whispered as soon as he walked on the open telescopic bridge, "Our air system is different from that of the Gaians, it has become cooler."
Krishna smiled when he heard this: "Four months ago, the Second Fleet 'Media' that landed at Keto Base had already begun to transform the dwarf planet HO-52. There are not many above-ground buildings that we can see.
, the airport has just been built, and the underground reactor system of the base has been established. We Platonians are always so efficient."
The two captains looked very imposing in their knightly robes. They walked into the airport, and Budi, the commander of the Median fleet, was leading everyone in the fleet headquarters to greet them.
Wearing the uniform of the "Media Fleet", Budi looks like he is less than forty years old. The design of the uniform of the Second Fleet is also very beautiful, with an azure background and silver lightning-shaped decorative stripes on the cuffs. Budi
He looks very tough and burly, as tall as the two group leaders.
He and Mursili, the commander-in-chief of the Third Fleet "Katusha", happen to have the same genetic combination. Mursili has mainly Asian genes and has a somewhat Caucasian appearance, while Budi is generally Caucasian.
, take a closer look at the delicacy of some East Asians. The Plato Fleet is obviously a collection of high-quality mixed-race genes.

"I am very happy to see the arrival of the two captains," Budi said with a smile. "This means that I have fulfilled my duties. In three days, I will lead part of the fleet back to Plato."
"I was ordered to go to the 'Anunitu' area more than four months ago. I was originally going to have a battle with the Gaians, but I didn't expect that it would end peacefully. This is really unexpected."
People from both sides walked and talked, and the whole atmosphere seemed very relaxed.
"After another 8,000 light-year voyage, most of our fleet can return to Plato for rest. As far as time on Plato is concerned, nearly half a year has passed since we left and returned. This so-called
Three years of peace are too short for endless time and space."
Kalki thought to himself: Budi’s idea is that of almost all sailing soldiers, who hope to return home as soon as possible. Only he is determined to stay at the Keto base.
"This place is so big!" Captain Krishna exclaimed, stopping to look at the scene outside the huge transparent floor-to-ceiling space glass.
"This is just the first phase of the Keto Airport project." Budi also looked down at the entire base ground with brown-gray eyes with a hint of green. Various construction airships in the distance were busy under construction. This has been the norm for the past four months.
It never stops for a moment.
"You know, Keto Base is actually the largest city and fortress in human history. Of course, the design of our new base has been reduced to a certain extent. Both the Senate and the Military Privy Council believe that we cannot be like the Gaians.
With 8 million troops stationed here, wouldn't it be more than the entire Plato fleet combined?" Budi said with a proud smile, "We are not the waste of Gaia with redundant troops to consume the excess population." p>
"Do you know the exact number of our final garrison?" Krishna asked curiously.
"This is a secret now, but it can be roughly estimated. Maybe 500,000 to 800,000 garrison troops. Such a scale is more likely."
"Isn't that equivalent to the number of troops in Messier's garrison? That is at least twice as many combatants as the White Tiger Knights." Krishna said.
"In comparison, the so-called richest 'City of Light' Star City is just a large birdcage with extremely high population density. How beautiful a huge space military fortress is!" Kalki said suddenly, with a kind of
His lyrical tone made everyone present turn to look at him.
"The two captains have traveled 7,900 light years. Now I will ask someone to take you to the military camp." Commander Budi said thoughtfully.
"Our journey was very smooth. There was no sense of hard work at all, but it was too dull. Now is the time to hand over the journey quickly, so you can start your journey home earlier."
Kalki said so seriously.
In this way, they gradually took over all the work of the Second Fleet "Media" from the moment they landed.
"The initial stage of 'terraforming' of the dwarf planet HO-52 has been completed."
The two captains, escorted by their own retinues and staff teams, followed the personnel of the general engineering group for the reconstruction of Ceto on a prototype suspension boat with transparent walls to inspect the reconstruction status of the entire space base. What a magnificent scene it was.
A scene.
In a vast, seemingly endless pit, there are countless huge robotic arms or mechanical vehicles and equipment, as well as hundreds of construction transport boats, like a dense swarm, constantly transporting equipment back and forth.
"Oh my god...it's so huge." Shikinir, the young servant of Captain Krishna, opened his blue eyes wide and looked at this huge project that exceeded his field of vision with an incredible expression.
"This is Ceto's 'Velsa' military maintenance plant." Chuck, the chief engineer from the Second Fleet, pointed to the huge construction site and introduced it to everyone.
"We learned from the lesson that the military maintenance factory at Gaea's Messier base was bombed to the point of being unsustainable during our close-ground attack. This time, the military maintenance factory in Ceto is completely built underground. We guarantee that it will be almost completely destroyed."
It will not be damaged by any air strikes, just like its name, 'Velsa' means indestructible."
Chuck has a square and stern face. The most eye-catching thing about his bronze face is his tall aquiline nose. At first glance, he comes from Plato’s "Xuanwu" race. His deep black eyes are bloodshot and he looks a little tired.
, but still cheered up to introduce the situation to the top commanders of the new garrison.
"How long will it take to complete the entire Keto base?" Krishna asked.
"If you have brought us enough supplies, there will be at least one and a half years left... We will try our best to complete all the work before the peace treaty expires." Chuck couldn't help but frown, "The project is too huge, and the time is too long...
Too much haste..."
Kalki touched the display screen in front of him with his finger. If he remembered correctly, this seemed to be the G19 area of the original Keto base. He looked at the displayed area.
Indeed, this is where Rama and his friends died in battle.
Standing here now, he can only see a huge and extremely busy pit, with countless instruments and working arms waving up and down, and countless construction ships going back and forth.
Everything in his memory has completely disappeared, the corner where they were ambushed, the long trumpet-shaped stairs where he ran back and forth in anger and pain, the Gaians who fell to the ground who he killed, and they beat the corpses like they were killed.
The felled woods fell into pieces...these scenes completely disappeared.
Twelve years later... everything has passed. In another twelve years, where will he be? Who will remember his name?
"It turns out that the 'Keto Base' is so huge! It is indeed the 'King of Space Bases'! In comparison, Messier is really weak!"
After the visit, Krishna obviously talked more on the way back to the dormitory. He was obviously deeply shocked by what he saw before, and he sighed like a little boy.
"Kalki, it's not easy for you to survive the land battle of the Second Battle of Ceto. I was still a flight cadet at the time, not even a trainee retinue of the Knights! We can't imagine that we are 7,900 light years away.
The battle for the base..." The light from the transparent corridor came through from above and from one side, shrouding the two of them. The design of the newly built Ceto base has a sense of space, "And it is said that this is your life.
The first time I went to the battlefield, the ground battle was like grinding meat for almost a month..."
"Kalki?"
Krishna realized that Kalki had not spoken but remained silent.
"Kalki, are you okay?"
He quickly stopped to observe his appearance. Everyone knew that Kalki was injured in the Battle of Messier and almost suffered from Cambyses disease, so they paid close attention to his mental condition. Cambyses disease is a kind of neurological damage.
Abnormalities can easily occur suddenly without warning.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Kalki said, the light brought an extraordinarily bright color to his solemn face, and a kind of sadness trembled on his lowered eyelashes.
"I am thinking about my friends who died in Ketuo, and I am thinking that maybe one day, I will also become the memory of others."
"No! You are the bravest and noblest knight I have ever seen!" Krishna said sincerely, "You will definitely live a long life and go to the Island of Blessings to retire. There will be many old people surrounding you, listening to your story.
