Chapter 3167: Situation is bad

"Why is it so difficult for us to determine what happened to the star domain we control!"
In the core area of ​​the "Capital Circle", Fren, the "star general" and "temporary leader", finally failed to control his emotions and made a roaring angry voice.
The control room of the main ship was silent, and no one said anything, whether it was the crew in the control room or those who were remotely participating in the meeting.
"what is the problem?"
The silence did not calm Fren, on the contrary, he was even more angry and slammed his fist on the table.
At this time, those people couldn't stay silent any longer, and an information intelligence officer wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up.
"Star...Leader, perhaps they did not deceive us. None of the reconnaissance fleets we sent to the Rees star system were able to return, and even the news was not passed on."
"Also, not only the Rees star system, but the area of ​​300 light-years centered on the Rees star system is dead."
"No matter the civilized race in that area, or the outposts, detectors, etc., we have all lost contact."
As the official said, he kept wiping the sweat from his head.
Coming down from the bridge, Fren came to the fat official.
Ignoring him, Fren looked at the workbench in front of him.
On the huge workbench, a red aperture circled a star field.
"So far, how many mechanical monsters have we come into contact with?"
Staring at the star field in the aperture, Fren asked in a deep voice.
The fat official quickly turned his head and looked to the side. The crew sitting there immediately stood up and responded: "There were 72 of them. We killed 69, ran away, and another was arrested. Get up, now those scientists should be studying and dissecting."
"in case……"
After a little thought, Fren spoke.
Only his words were spoken, and they were interrupted by a crew member.
In another position of the console, a young female crew member stood up and looked a little nervous, she said loudly: "Leader, just received the news that some mechanical monsters have appeared, and one of the monsters claimed to be the Berkeley star general. grown ups."
"Berkeley!"
As soon as Fran heard it, three steps and two steps came to the female crew member.
"That's what the other party said, and now the forward fleet has passed the news back."
"They also said that after the exchange, it was confirmed that if the other party is not a Berkeley star, then he must have his memory."
The female crew member spoke, and at the same time called up the information she had just received on her workbench.
"Leave the other mechanical monsters behind and bring back the one that claims to be Berkeley."
There was only a moment of silence, and Fren immediately gave the order.
"understand."
The female crew member responded sharply, and then passed on the command of the "leader".
A few seconds later, a new message prompt appeared on the workbench in front of the female crew member.
Some anxious Fren simply pushed away the female crew member and sat down by himself. After clicking on the message, he found that the content of the message was just a communication connection request.
Without hesitation, he immediately connected.
A familiar face appeared on the light screen, but it was the "Star General" McCarthy, commander of the forward fleet.
"leader."
McCarthy made a habitual military salute to Fren.
"McCarthy."
Fren immediately responded with a military salute.
"Let me make a long story short, that mechanical monster knows everything about Berkeley. If it is not Berkeley, it would have swallowed Berkeley's memory."
"I'm not sure now, what kind of situation it is."
"In addition, there is one more question, the flame bat is also back."
"Just after Berkeley appeared, the flame bats also appeared soon."
"Of course, this is also the statement of the mechanical monster who is not as big as ours."
"In fact, whether it is a fire bat, or whether another mechanical monster is Berkeley, we have no way to determine."
No nonsense, McCarthy "Star General" said straightforwardly.
"The flame bat!"
Upon hearing the name, Fren suddenly grew big.
As a "star general", how could he not know how powerful the "flaming bat" is.
Fren clearly knows that no matter the "flaming bat" or the "split kiss", any of them is worthy of the more "exotic animal civilizations" of several fleets and even the alliance.
"Are you sure it is a flame bat?"
Subconsciously wanted to raise this question, but Fren still didn't say it.
McCarthy has said very clearly, and if he can be sure, he must have said it just now.
"Let them come together..."
"Forget it, let them stay in the front position, I will go to see them."
After speaking, Fren immediately changed his mind.
"You can't leave the capital circle."
"Or else, it's a remote meeting, it's no different from meeting."
"If you leave, what will happen to the Capital Circle?"
"Fren, you are not only a star, but also a leader."
"If the mechanical monster claiming to be Berkeley didn't lie to us, our leader Coverdale is likely to be dead."
"Otherwise, Berkeley thinks that even if he becomes the same as him, he will definitely return to the Capital Circle."
McCarthy said solemnly.
"How about this."
"I'll contact you again when I go back to the office."
"By the way, what's the situation on the alien side?"
"I mean the alien that appeared three times in the capital circle."
About to end the communication connection, Fren suddenly remembered something and immediately asked again.
"Five times."
"Just today, they have appeared in the Blackstone star system and the Gemini star system again."
"But like the previous three times, they didn't stay long after they appeared, and they disappeared immediately."
McCarthy responded immediately.
"Is the situation okay over the Reese star system?"
After hesitating, Fren still raised the issue that he and everyone else care about most.
Hearing him ask about this, McCarthy's expression became heavy.
"If what they say is true, I mean those mechanical monsters."
"If they didn't deceive us, then the situation is very bad."
"Or, it's very bad."
McCarthy's tone was even heavier than his expression.
"Let's talk about it later."
His expression was slightly stagnant, Fren said and then reached out and tapped on the light screen, ending the remote communication connection.
Seeing that the "leader" hurriedly left the main control room and went to his private office cabin, the other people in the huge main control room looked at each other, each expression uglier than the other.
And those senior coalition leaders who stayed in the "House of Representatives" to participate in remote video conferences, their faces were even more ugly, and the light screens that appeared one after another were darkened.
