Chapter 262 Public response and the command of the five primarchs of the mixed fleet
"Chairman."
Also looking at the elites crossing the Light Bridge, Queen Bai, who had been silent, suddenly said:
"After analyzing the actual combat data provided by the Punishment and estimating that the enemy's territory is approximately three times that of ours, we still have the absolute strength to win."
Hear the words.
Sui Bian knew that Empress Bai told him this analysis, which was a disguised question as to why she wanted to "incite rebellion" against Moore and a group of elites.
Then he turned sideways, looked at Queen Bai and said, "It's true to have absolute strength, but if a full-scale war breaks out, how many colonies will be invaded by the enemy, and how many humans will die in this war?
Therefore, it is best to let the enemy's internal chaos occur, and take the opportunity to defeat the enemy with minimal losses and fastest speed until he has no remaining strength to support the war.
Although I don't like to add insult to injury, I do like to use it on enemies, especially alien races that are clearly hostile to humans.
Make a note of this, Queen Bai."
"Okay, Chairman." Queen Bai's eyes flashed with blue light, seemingly storing Sui Bian's words.
The same was true for the Red Queen, except that the light was red, and Sui Bian looked at her again and asked: "Report on the status of the Griffin."
"It is expected to arrive within the gravitational range of the Harvest Star in 43 minutes." The Red Queen replied after completing the storage.
"Okay, then notify the engineers accompanying the army to unload the enemy ship that the Punishment calls a cockroach as soon as possible."
"yes."
After explaining to the Red Queen, Sui Bian finally ordered Shirley and Laura: "Director Birken, you will assist the archaeological team in charge of Crawford to continue research on this ruins."
"Please rest assured (yes)." The two responded in unison.
Next.
The technicians and archaeological team in charge of Shirley and Laura stayed in the ruins, while Sui Bian and others returned to the tunnel through the light bridge and prepared to go to the surface.
"Father…"
At this time, John looked at the top of the tunnel and said: "Using that captain to disintegrate the enemy is one thing. In fact, father, you also appreciate this race."
"So." Sui Bian did not deny it.
He also said: "My perception tells me that they advocate martial arts, are stubborn but repay kindness, do what they say, and do not bother to take advantage of others' danger. They are pure warriors."
In a sense, they are more reliable than the Inti Unancha clan (iron-blooded), and they are more numerous than those eccentric hunters.
I think they seem to be a good ally in the future against other hostile aliens in the galaxy, even demons."
"What about other races, father?" Leon interjected and asked.
"Well..." Sui Bian seemed to be thinking in a low voice, and then continued to say to his two sons:
"Guys like jackals give me the impression of pirates in my perception. Looking at the battle records provided by the Punishment, it is not difficult to find that the characteristics of their race are opportunistic and bully the weak and fear the strong.
That group of little people (the Grunts) are a group of... the same strange race. I can sense that they seem to worship Captain Linmir's race very much.
As for those group of apes (Jiralhanae)...
Just by looking at the battle records, we can see that they are no match for Captain Linmir’s race.”
"Indeed." Leon nodded thoughtfully.
"Father, I think those long-necked jellyfish (engineers) seem to be good mechanics." John added.
"Yes, I will let Queen Bai try to talk to it later." Sui Bian confirmed John's words.
And chuckled: "Of course, it's too early to talk about these things now, the war has just begun, kids.
And it won’t be long before you brothers are going to be in the public eye, so be prepared to be on camera.”
"yes."

…
"When and where did the alien race called colonists by UEG and Umbrella invade us humans? Put down your pens, keep your hands away from the table, and let me take a look..."
Inside the classroom.
A female teacher wearing an emerald green cheongsam who seemed to be in her thirties suddenly asked the students a surprise question and scanned the students, preparing to select a lucky person to answer.
Behind the female teacher and the podium, there was a holographic blackboard with key points written on it. In front of her, there were more than thirty students sitting in their respective seats.
Wearing dark slim-fitting uniforms, the high school students, who looked about fifteen or six years old and still had childish faces, had different expressions.
Some looked calm, others pretended to be confident, and some had evasive eyes, not daring to look at their history teacher.
Outside the window on the far left is a view of a large colonial city in the evening.
The schoolbags hanging on the backs of the students' chairs are thin and light, and there are no pens and papers in the traditional sense. Multi-purpose screens on the desktop replace textbooks.
But the pens have not been directly replaced. Each student has a different-shaped touch screen pen so that they can continue to write on the screen.
Although technology continues to advance, human beings are inexplicably stubborn in some aspects, and their brains are very active when writing with a pen.
After asking the question, the classroom fell into silence.
It wasn't until the female teacher looked at a student who didn't dare to make eye contact with her that she broke the atmosphere and said, "Wilhelm, tell me."
When his name was called, the male student, who was much stronger than his peers, stood up helplessly, tried hard to recall, and finally said in frustration:
"forget…"
"Copy the knowledge points thirty times later and you will remember them."
The teacher also shook his head helplessly, waved his hand for the male students to sit down, and then reminded the students in a gentle tone:
"It's February 4, 2022, Pacific Time, in Elizabeth City, located in southern Africa on Earth. Remember, don't forget it's Pacific Time, otherwise you will lose two points. This question is a required question in the college entrance examination every year. Please pay attention.
Bar."
"I know, Teacher Yi." The students responded in unison.
But from the looks of some students secretly rejoicing, it can be seen that they did not take the female teacher's advice to heart.
"Okay then, what we want to say next is..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Ding---~!"
The sudden harsh ringing of the bell interrupted the female teacher's normal teaching.
The class started less than ten minutes ago, so it couldn't be the end of get out of class, which made the teachers and students feel a little confused.
The ringing stops.
The principal's old voice came out from the broadcast installed above the automatic door:
"Attention all teachers and students, classes are suspended. All teachers immediately switch network settings and prepare to watch the government's press conference."
The principal finished speaking;
"What press conference?"
"I don't know..."
"Maybe it has something to do with the Harvest Star. The recent news is all about the Harvest Star."
The students were curious and guessed.
"Everyone, be quiet."
The female teacher first asked the students to keep quiet, and then operated on the screen on the podium to connect the classroom blackboard and desk screen to the Internet.
There is no need to search carefully. As soon as you open the browser's homepage, you will see that the official website has placed the live broadcast link in the most conspicuous position.
See this.
The female teacher put the live broadcast on the blackboard so that she and her students could watch it together.
After looking at the picture on the blackboard, which changed from the focus of knowledge to the central square of a certain city, the female teacher walked to the window, and the students immediately sat down and watched attentively.
It seems that anything that is not in class can interest these underage students.
I saw the words "PTZ (Pacific Time Zone) 2072/08/14/07:56" displayed in the upper right corner of the live broadcast screen.
However, the sunny side of the live broadcast site was bright and it seemed to be at noon, which was not the scenery that should be seen in the early morning, indicating that this square was not on the earth.
The three flagpoles placed in the center of the square bear the flags of UEG, Umbrella and UNSC flying in the wind.
Parliamentarians, officials, and generals gathered in the square.
In addition to these dignitaries wearing various uniforms, there are also hundreds of Honor Guards equipped with different styles and styles of Terminator power armor, as well as those standing in front of their respective guards...
Ten Primarchs.
Each of them wore custom-made military uniforms that were generally similar but with different details. They showed tall and sculptured figures, faces that were no different from human beings, and showed a firm demeanor and sharp eyes.
Even if you stand at the back, the average height of more than four meters is too conspicuous.
The students who witnessed the original body exploded immediately, especially those who liked military themes and continued to follow military forums.
The male student whose name was called just now pointed at the blackboard and shouted something like "It's officially confirmed!"
“…”
This time, the female teacher did not remind the students to keep quiet, because she did not expect that the super soldiers, who have caused heated discussions on the Internet these days, would actually appear at a government press conference.
Those ten original bodies gave her, who was familiar with history, a strong sense of "demigod" sight.
soon.
A "middle-aged" general wearing a white navy uniform walked to the podium in front of the flagpole, and the camera on the screen stretched until the general's appearance could be clearly seen.
Then the general said in a serious voice: "All compatriots, I am Admiral James Carter.
Three days ago, the multi-racial United Empire, which calls itself the Covenant, declared war on us humans with a genocidal attitude, and even sent a fleet in an attempt to burn down the Harvest Star.
As a result, the entire Paris-class frigate Retribution declared to the Covenant Empire and the entire galaxy that we humans are not a weak race that can be bullied!
For peace-loving friends, we humans will applaud and welcome them; for invaders, humans will defend their rights to the death!
As the ancients said, if you want peace, you must always be ready for war!
So today, the Harvest Star has assembled five legions and twenty-five fleets. In the near future, five unprecedentedly large mixed fleets will be formed, sailing to the unknown space, and launching a counterattack against the Covenant Empire!
The commander-in-chief is the future, and the highest officer of each mixed fleet is the original commander of the legion. They are Robert, John, Sanguinius, Russ and Angron respectively.
I know that your compatriots are confused about what the original body is, who the group of giants behind me are, and whether they are the super soldiers circulated on the Internet.
I think these should be left to more professional people to clarify the doubts of our compatriots, Congressman Sui, please."
After Admiral Carter finished speaking, the camera began to slowly move to the left.
Sui Bian, who was wearing a black suit with a red and white umbrella button on his collar, straightened his clothes and walked away from the area where a group of congressmen gathered.
The camera follows Sui Bian closely.
It wasn't until Sui Bian walked to Carter's side and the two shook hands with each other that the camera was fixed again.
Then Carter walked out of the camera, and Sui Bian said with a smile: "I am a member of the Umbrella board of directors and a member of the UEG. My surname is Sui and my first name is Bian. I am the one who can clear up the doubts of my compatriots." of honor.
Yes, super soldiers really exist. My compatriots should have known this for a long time, and their official name is the Astartes. As for leading them to fight for humanity in secret, it is the ten primarchs behind me. "
Speaking of this, Sui Bian gradually stopped smiling: "The main reason for the emergence of super soldiers is that the governments of Umbrella and UEG's predecessors learned as early as the last century that there are alien races in the galaxy. For the sake of the overall safety of mankind, To survive, we need to be prepared in advance for an interstellar war to break out.
Please watch this ancient video material."
At this point, the blackboard screen automatically switched, playing a scene of the predator civilization's reconnaissance fleet passing through Deimos for the teachers and students.
Nearly a thousand insect-like living ships guard a mothership that is ten kilometers in length.
With Deimos as a reference, teachers and students can truly feel the strong sense of oppression brought by the predator fleet.
As the video material continued to play, humanity's only three Goshawk-class frigates at the time began to engage in firefights and assaults with the Predator fleet, until combatants were dispatched to attack the mothership.
The teachers and students who witnessed this, as well as the people watching the live broadcast at this time, realized that when they were enjoying a stable life, the war had never stopped.
The video has finished playing.
Return to the live broadcast screen.
Sui Bian continued: "This battle that broke out more than sixty years ago prompted Umbrella to deepen cooperation with governments of various countries, and directly led to the establishment of UEG and UNSC.
At the same time, this battle also made us realize that if we want mankind to survive for a long time, we must have warriors who go beyond the limits.
When we pray to those so-called gods, hoping to receive blessings, where are those gods?!"
Said at the same time.
The camera began to zoom out, and the ten original bodies stepped forward and stood on the left and right of Sui Bian.
He also spread his hands and said: "Now! We have the original body, the Astartes, the heroic soldiers and all the compatriots fighting together, so...
Let those so-called gods see how we humans can rely on ourselves to live a strong and prosperous life in this galaxy surrounded by powerful enemies!"
"Humanity will win!" the ten Primarchs responded to their father in unison.
Inside the classroom.
"Humanity will win!" The students couldn't help but agree.
Although his face is childish, he is full of determination and extremely confident eyes.
Even the female teacher standing by the window was deeply affected by the exciting atmosphere and whispered, "Humanity will win."
Next.
Sui Bian also stated that Umbrella would announce more detailed matters about the Astartes on the official website, and then let his eldest son Robert continue to speak on behalf of all the Primarchs.
The official public response to the war initiated by the Covenant also brought the Primarch and the Astartes completely into the light.
