In the Hope above the planetary synchronous orbit, in the captain's lounge in the military zone, Leona was lying tiredly on her own single bed. After so many days of busyness, coupled with the fierce night battle last night, she had been on duty at the bridge to pay attention to the battle situation. Until now, she had felt a little physically and mentally exhausted...

However, no matter what, the humans of their Hope Number, and the refugee sect who were exiled by UPL, can finally see a trace of hope of struggling to survive in this dark and dangerous strange universe.

By now, the ground base has defeated the large-scale attacks of the bugs twice in a row, especially last night, when the extra-large burning can of their Hope was successfully thrown into the underground cave of the ground base where the bug drilled out and tried to sneak attack, they must have suffered heavy losses, right?

You know, the fire last night was burning until the sky was about to be bright and gradually faded! Thinking about it, as long as the insects and monsters in the cave were not escaped in time, they would definitely turn into ashes?

Moreover, based on the rough calculations of the satellite, the number of insects killed on the ground alone was estimated to be more than 10,000? And there are only more fired in the caves, right?

If you calculate this way, after suffering such heavy casualties, their insect swarms should not have more troops to attack or attack again in a short period of time, right?

Then, they now have valuable development time, and with enough high-energy crystals and those special high-energy gases that have been mined, Leona believes that when the next insect swarm attacks again, the ones waiting for them will definitely not be a large group of marines and just a few tanks, right?

call……

The efforts of this period were finally not in vain.

Thinking of this, Captain Leona, who was lying on his bed, suddenly opened her eyes and let out a long sigh.

No matter what, even though they have made great sacrifices to the Hope, they have finally recovered! The lives and sacrifices of those brave soldiers have not been in vain!

Now, the humans of Hope begin to look forward to the future...

Over the days, the burden on her shoulders has been pressing on her, even leaving her with no normal rest time!

At every moment, she will constantly urge herself to do everything perfectly and to the best of everything, for the sake of not only her responsibility, but also for the future of more than 100,000 human beings on the Hope Number!

Now, her efforts, the efforts of those soldiers and officers, and the efforts of everyone else have finally won a glimmer of vitality for them. They not only gained valuable energy, but also created an opportunity to continue to develop!

If she hadn't had to wait for Shuguang Intelligent Brain to report the war damage to the ground base to herself, she would have really wanted to have a good sleep now...

After opening her eyes for a while, she could not help but feel tired and slowly closed her eyes.

“…”

No matter what, it is okay to have no war now, so it is okay to have a rest for a while, right?

From last night to now, she hasn't had any chance to sleep...

———

"Captain Leona, the combat data about the ground base have been initially counted. Do you need to take a look now?"

At this time, just a few minutes later, in the captain's rest room of Leona, a holographic projection of the Dawn Intelligent Brain suddenly appeared.

This eyeless artificial intelligence woke Captain Leona up in a ignorant way, and she woke her up in a vague way.

So far, the light of the star in this planetary system has shone again on the ground base of planet JNO.3 and the hope in synchronous orbit. Through the window glass of Captain Leona's room, the slightly dazzling light outside the window can also be clearly seen.

"Why……"

When he was just asleep, he was awakened by the other party. Leona had to moan helplessly, sit up with difficulty, and rub her swollen and beating temples hard.

call!

After taking a heavy breath, Leona looked up at the dawn of the brain standing in front of her bed with a bad look. This smart computer with powerful logical computing power but can never understand human emotions.

Can't it winks a little and let itself sleep for a while?

"You read it, don't let it go for me!"

Seeing that Shuguang Intelligent Brain had planned to list that long holographic list, she waved her hand with a headache.

Now, Leona doesn't want to look at the complicated and redundant data and lists. She just wants to know a rough idea quickly, and then after explaining some things, she will take a nap!

She has decided: Today, she will skip work! Anyway, she is the captain of the Hope. Here, she has the highest official position, and no one dares to talk to her!

"Okay, Captain!"

After responding, Shuguang quickly closed the few large holographic tables listed just now, which had been listed less than half of the number.

"The war last night, so far, after preliminary statistics from the ground base, the personnel and material losses of our ground base are as follows:

Marines were killed in battle: 213, seriously injured: 82, slightly injured: 208! Among them, fifty-two, even after healing his injuries, they should not serve in the army again! Also: According to statistics, most of the Marines died in battle were undertrained recruits."

If you can't continue to serve in the army, it must be because of your physical disability...

The battle was fierce last night, and I knew very clearly that the dawn of observing the ground conditions throughout the whole process.

Especially after the appearance of that kind of serpentine, no Marines who participated in the battle on the front line did not have a few bone spurs on their bodies!

Among them, they were lucky, and the bone spurs did not penetrate the armor. They were only embedded in metal armor and did not cause any damage to the people inside. At most, they would only damage the armor-powered combat uniforms to a certain extent.

If you are not lucky, you will be directly penetrated by bone spikes, pierced through your body or completely damaged your armor and fell to the ground and died...

Speaking of this, Shuguang Intelligent Bond looked at Captain Leona who was sitting on the bed silently. When he saw that the other party was dim and his face was not made any statement, he continued to read.

It originally thought that when the captain heard these numbers, it would have a greater emotional fluctuation. It also wanted to take the opportunity to study human emotions well, but how could it be known that Captain Leona was the manifestation of this silence?

Humans are really a complex creature...

"The tank troops lost a total of one tank. All three crew members in the tank were corroded by the venom of UFOs and died! The main base command center and some nearby buildings were also attacked by the poisonous sacs of flying insects several times, but they did not erode the metal outer wall. At present, after the maintenance of the SCV engineering vehicle, the repair has been basically completed, and there are no reports of losses in other buildings!

In addition, we also captured three puppy-type bugs, one snake-type bug, and one huge mammoth-type bug intact corpse. The number of bugs killed and burned was roughly counted. There were more than 60,000 per head! As for the specific numbers, the cleaning staff on the ground said that it was impossible to count!"

"The above is the statistical results of the battle last night!"

Soon, the Dawn of the Intelligent Brain reported on the situation of the battle and the harvest, and then looked at Captain Leona, ready to wait for her next instructions.

"Have you entered and investigated?"

Last night, the bugs dug caves and attacked the base through the huge digging insects. Leona was a little worried about this.

If that cave leads to the underground world of insects, it would be difficult to deal with...

With their current strength, it is still difficult to defend, but if they want to take the initiative to attack, they will probably appear weak.

"Yes, Captain! After the fire was extinguished, Commander Doug immediately assigned a number of small unmanned reconnaissance robots to enter the cave to investigate. Apart from countless burnt insect corpses and two forks leading to the acidic ocean, there was no harvest!"

After saying that, the Dawn of the Intellectual Brain also sensibly brought up the sectional view of the slanted cave.

It can be clearly seen from the holographic 3D map that the crypt dug out by insects has a huge network channel underneath, and a huge underground cave-shaped hidden area, where there are a lot of burnt insect corpses.

In the end, these caves were divided into two forks and led to different directions, but these two forks led to the ocean on both sides of the island where the base was located?

By the time we get here, the reconnaissance robots can no longer go deeper.

Obviously, these alien insects were attacked through the huge ocean, and were not originally entrenched in the underground caves of the base. This could probably be considered good news, right?

After evolution, these bugs are probably able to operate or survive in the seabed for a short period of freedom?

"Okay...If that's the case, then..."

After looking at it, there was nothing much gain, Leona was about to nod, and just when she was about to let the brain go, she suddenly remembered another thing.

"By the way, Dawn, have the list of those outstanding contributions been listed in the battle last night?"

For soldiers who have died in battle, Hope has a complete process. Their bodies will be cremated, and the ashes will be transported to Hope. After they find a new planet suitable for human habitation in the universe, they will be buried collectively on the earth belonging to humans.

Furthermore, for those who are still alive and have made outstanding contributions, the senior executives of the Hope Number must also commend and promote them, which is what they deserve to fight and fight for the future of Hope Number.

No matter which soldier, even the lowest level Marine Corps, is detected by the smart brain of the Shuguang, and then after manual review, it will receive corresponding merits and finally be promoted. For this, the Hope also follows a set of rules of the UPL military system.

Of course, those who have made particularly great contributions and performed particularly outstandingly will also be specially rewarded by Hope and promoted by the Hope.

"This list has been counted, Captain!"

After hearing the captain's inquiry, Shuguang Intelligent Brain quickly listed a series of lists next to him.

Among them, in the battle sequence of the Hope Marine Corps, there are Lieutenant Garen, Lieutenant Dryus, who is the commander of the Marine Corps, and a few private and non-commissioned officers who performed particularly well.

Their performance in battle has been initially recognized by the Intelligent Brain. After the senior officials on the Hope and members of the Parliamentary Audit Bureau are approved, they will receive corresponding commendations and promotions.

In the heavy siege tank unit, the interim commander Nolan, who was a newcomer, also received recognition for his performance!

If there is no accident, I believe that in the near future, his two temporary words will be directly promoted and the corresponding military rank will be increased.

As for the SCV engineers, they did not participate directly in the battle this time, and they could only accumulate merit points, and no one has met the conditions for promotion or commendation for the time being.

This is how the non-combat personnel in the logistics industry are. Although safety is safe, it is extremely difficult to obtain military merits. They can only accumulate and earnestly achieve qualifications in order to be able to succeed in the military system.

Then, there is Commander Doug of the ground base command center. Her performance and reaction this time were pretty good. I guess she could also get the corresponding military rank promotion?

Finally... it is the only ghost agent of Hope, Major Anne!

Looking at the other party’s performance descriptions and specific descriptions, Captain Leona even had a little doubt that some of the above achievements were written incorrectly?

Because when Leona looked over, she saw that the holographic list clearly recorded the other party's contributions.

Hope New Calendar, January 16, the awards of the ghost agent Anne Hastad were as follows:

Military merit record 1: Timely warning!

When the insects on planet JNO.3 were digging to prepare to raid the ground base, Major Anne promptly gave an alarm, gaining valuable reaction time, and saving the base from its destiny.

Remember: One special merit!

Military merit record 2: Tanks and cannons knock flying insects!

Major Anne has created an unprecedented siege tank in assault mode and high-speed driving. With 80mm caliber double-bar cannon, she successfully shot three flying insects with a hit rate of 100%. She saved the remaining tank troops and made great contributions to the subsequent battles.

Remember: First-class merit once!

Military merit record three: Kill a huge bug!
