Umbrella, The Light of Humanity

Inside the classroom.

The scenery outside the window changed from evening to night, and the blackboard also switched back to the normal focus of knowledge.

Those Primarchs are really tall...

I figured it out, I'm going to join the army after high school!

Count me in!

Xinxin has long stopped studying the students above, and while talking with the students about the previous press conference, they packed their personal belongings into their schoolbags.

The female teacher in the emerald green cheongsam also acquiesced in the students' conversations in class. She counted the time when get out of class was about to end, stood back on the podium, and raised her voice and said:

Prepare well after returning home today. Don't delay your grades because of the war on Harvest Star. It's not your turn to participate in the war. Study hard while you're young. Did you hear me?

I heard it! Teacher Yi! The students responded loudly.

En. The female teacher nodded slightly, and said to the male student sitting in the corner, Don't forget to copy the knowledge points thirty times, Wilhelm.

It's... Teacher Yi. The male student named Wilhelm replied in a low voice.

Ding~----! The bell for the end of get out of class rang on time.

The students picked up their schoolbags and left, while Wilhelm and the boys sitting in the back row quickly rushed out of the classroom and disappeared from sight.

Ugh…

Looking at the open automatic door, the female teacher surnamed Yi sighed and shook her head.

…

Meanwhile Harvest Star.

On the side of the central square in the capital Aldega, civilians gathered around to watch.

The marines and auxiliary troops responsible for maintaining order on the scene were surrounded by civilians, not the kind of demonstrations, but the support with high respect.

only listen;

come on!

Severely teach those covenant (Star Alliance) people a lesson!

Thank you for your fearless dedication!

In the crowded streets, the encouragement and cheers of the common people resounded.

Like the Marine Corps and the Auxiliary Army, the Astartes who belonged to the five legions and were equipped with Thor's Hammer V and armed with bolt guns were also maintaining order.

Harvest Star, which was originally the least populated, has now become the first colonized planet to witness that Primarch and Astartes walking in the world.

This makes people extremely confident and full of confidence.

off the surface.

In the current low-earth orbit, there is a mixed fleet of unprecedented scale gathered in the long river of human history.

There are as many as 52 aircraft carriers with a distance of more than two kilometers, battleships, cruisers, frigates and destroyers, and various support boats, supply ships and other ships, the total number reaches more than 1,200.

It is equivalent to about one-fifth of all the warships owned by human beings gathered in Harvest Star, which made the military-civilian ratio of Harvest Star seriously unbalanced again.

Compared with the mixed fleet, it looks like ants, and there are countless flying boats and transport planes, shuttling between their respective motherships and the surface, preparing for the next counterattack expedition.

However, Umbrella's Third Legion and UNSC Fleet 045 will be stationed on Harvest Star, which belongs to the front line, for a long time before the end of the Human-Covenant Empire war.

Moreover, more and more manpower, resources and equipment are being transported to Harvest Star, which will become a logistics supply station for human beings in the future.

But among the all sharp and regular human battleships, there is a purple and sleek battlecruiser that is out of place and belongs to the covenant.

This battlecruiser was moored beside Sui Bian's flagship.

In the Nuoda hangar of the Praise of Courage, there is also a beetle-shaped purple transport plane parked.

On the left side of the transport plane stood Sui Bian and his Primarch sons, two artificial intelligences who had a low sense of presence when they were not speaking, and more than 30 elites who had put on their armor again.

Moore regained his golden armor and was no longer as embarrassed as he was a few days ago. He clenched his right hand and put it on his left chest, then bent down a little, showing enough respect and said to Sui Bian:

Thank you, Chairman, for your understanding. We will do our best to wake up more people and stop this war caused by the prophet's selfish desire.

According to what you say, I should be the one to thank you, Captain Lin Mier. Sui Bian replied with a smile on his face.

In any case, your Excellency is the benefactor of our Sangheili family, so I hope that we will meet again next time, as a friend, not as a hostile relationship.

After Moore finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the transport plane with the hatch opened, and raised his head and gave a light ow to signal his subordinates to board the plane quickly.

soon.

Moore and the others drove the transport plane, left the hangar through the gas valve, and headed for the battle cruiser parked nearby.

Guys who advocate martial arts, um...

Looking at the air valve membrane emitting blue light, Ruth, who had his hands on his hips, thought about it, and suddenly seemed to think of something, haha laughed and said:

I don't know how much they can drink! It should be interesting to let them compete with wolf cubs!

heard the words.

As the eldest brother, Robert habitually said: You are almost ninety years old, be careful, you must know that you are the Primarch of the Fourth Legion, Russ.

Give up, Robert. Rogge put his hands on Robert's shoulders, shook his head and said, Russ is hopeless, his brain has been soaked in wine.

I said... Ruth approached Rogge, pretending to be a winner, and laughed loudly: Rogge, you guys are envious of us being able to go to war, huh? Hahaha!

Heh, my duty is to defend the solar system, which is much more important than going on an expedition. Rogge said disdainfully.

At this moment, another brother approached them and said with a sunny smile:

I haven't seen you for more than ten years. You two are still the same. You miss your life on Earth.

This Primarch with short hair has a handsome appearance comparable to that of Sanguinius, and his strong physique is second only to Russ. Most importantly, the words of this Primarch seem to be able to calm the minds of the brothers .

Like the good old guy of all the brothers.

And he is the eighth among all the descendants of Sui Bian in terms of age, and he is also Angron, the original body of the Eighth Legion, the Obstacle Remover.

The five legions responsible for leading the five mixed fleets and preparing for the counterattack expedition are the Ultramarine Legion, Sparta, Space Wolves, Blood Angels, and Angron's Obstacle Breakers.

Admiral James Carter's UNSC 1st Fleet will work with Robert's Ultra Corps.

Glory Iron Fist, who is best at defense, and Thutmose, who is best at spiritual power, guard the solar system with a population of 23 billion.

The Iron Hands continued to guard Reach on the Forge World, while the Raven Guard cruised on the edge of the border.

The four Primarchs who were in charge of staying behind only brought their respective honor guards to Harvest Star in order to officially come to the public.

Shortly thereafter, Roger and Ferrus will return to their respective posts.

Seeing Angron approaching, Rogge stopped talking and said: Forget it, I wish you success, and capture the group of ostrich priests and use them as research materials for the doctor (plague doctor).

Then I'll accept your auspicious words too! Hahaha! If we can reunite after the war, Rogge, you guys have to drink hard for me!! Ruth laughed boldly.

not far away.

Sui Bian crossed his hands in front of him, looked at his sons who hadn't been reunited for at least twenty years, smiled and said nothing, and didn't bother to teach Ruth who was exploding.

After all, his group of sons need to wear the mask of being the Primarch and the supreme commander of the Legion in normal times.

Only at this time can they take off all their disguises and talk nonsense with their brothers.

Sui Bian also couldn't help thinking back to seventy years ago, when he took his sons who were only over two meters tall, to the zoo in Raccoon City, the staff couldn't help but doubt life.

Noticing the other party's expression of this is thirteen years old?!, he, the father, realized that he could no longer take his sons to play in public places.

In this calculation, the Primarch had been separated from normal human society for seventy years.

Chairman. At this moment, the Red Queen interrupted Sui Bian's memory and said, The cruiser driven by the Sangheili such as Mullin Mill has entered the fault space.

Father.

Hearing the report from the Red Queen, Sanguinius, who was also standing beside Sui Bian, said a little worriedly: It's just Corax and the others, isn't it a bit too risky?

heard the words.

After finishing his memories, Sui Bian raised his head slightly, and said to his youngest Primarch son: No, you and Robert only need to deal with the chaotic enemies, and try to capture the group of Sangheili. Completely defeat the Covenant Empire.

Yes, please rest assured, father. Sanguinius nodded.

Of course I don't worry. Sui Bian smiled lightly.

Then he looked to the other side, and said to Magnus and Leon, who were also standing beside Russ and Rogge, who were not involved in the quarrel:

Leon, Magnus, you two are ready for a surprise attack. Once the Covenant Empire falls into chaos and Robert and the others lead the main force to launch a full-scale attack, you will go straight to the Corinth galaxy.

Yes. The two primarchs responded in unison.

Magnus also raised his left hand and pinched his chin lightly. He frowned slightly and said, With Rogge and my champions, the solar system is unbreakable, but what exactly did the pioneer race my father mentioned leave behind in the Corinth galaxy?

You'll know when you get there. Leon shrugged his shoulders indifferently, but his indifferent demeanor showed some worry, and said to Sui Bian:

Father, Magnus and I will complete the investigation as soon as possible.

Without psychic perception, just looking at Leon's appearance, Sui Bian knew that the third son was worried about his safety, so he couldn't help smiling and said:

I don't need to worry here. If the Covenant Empire really dares to put all their eggs in one basket and attack Harvest Star again, I will be happy before it's too late.

Speaking of this, Sui Bian changed the subject, his tone became a little more serious, and he warned: You should be careful about the special Zerg that may exist.

As early as three days ago, he told Leon and Magnus about the characteristics of the Flood in his memory to ensure that the two sons would deal with the possible Flood when they went to the Corinth galaxy for investigation.

As for Corinth, it is a galaxy marked on the relic star map, about 350 light-years away from Harvest Star.

But Corinth is not in the territory of human beings. Instead, it is an unknown universe that has never been explored by human beings, that is, the depths of the territory of the Covenant Empire.

According to the scientific and technological level shown by the covenant, the red and white queens speculate that they have a great probability of completing the routine operation of colonizing the Corinth galaxy, or being established as a scientific research station by the covenant.

The types of pioneer relics that Sui Bian could think of can be roughly divided into two categories.

The first is some kind of outposts, bases and libraries built by the Forerunners on the Harvest Star, Methrein and the naturally formed terrestrial planets.

The second is artificial celestial bodies.

Just like the definition of man-made, it is a variety of celestial-class warships, objects and weapons built by the forerunners.

If Sui Bian remembers correctly, the diameter of the halo is 10,000 kilometers, which is only a small halo, and the diameter of the big halo is even 30,000 kilometers.

The lotus-shaped ark that devours and disassembles other terrestrial planets and is used to build halos even has a diameter of 130,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to ten times that of the earth.

In addition to these super celestial bodies, the most common scattered in the Milky Way should be the shield world.

Shield worlds seem to be similar to ordinary terrestrial planets, and the surface has an environment suitable for living organisms, especially human beings.

Under the surface, there is an inverted underground world, the core of which is an ultra-small artificial star to provide energy and light for the entire shield world.

The reason why it is called shield is because the original intention of the forerunners to build the shield world is to provide a barrier for the clansmen to resist the halo pulse that destroys everything.

No matter what, the forerunners have disappeared. If Leon and Magnus found a celestial body built by the forerunners in the Corinth galaxy that Leon and Magnus went to, there is a certain probability that they will encounter the flood.

Even though the probability is very low, Sui Bian will still share information about Hong Mo with his son.

Leon and Magnus, who had listened to the instructions, also had a much more dignified expression, keeping what their father said in their hearts.

…

In the unknown universe.

With the bright and gorgeous Milky Way and the colorful nebula diffused in the deep space, the Milky Way scene in this universe is exquisite.

Against the background of this beautiful scenery, a fleet of the Covenant Empire is sailing in this space with conventional engines.

It may not be accurate to say one, because from a human point of view, this fleet seems to be a mixture of multiple fleets of different sizes, responsibilities and levels.

It is similar to the five mixed fleets that humans are preparing to counterattack against them, but in terms of scale...

But it far exceeds any mixed fleet of human beings. Looking around, the total number of warships is difficult to estimate, but at least four thousand ships.

This is still the case of warships, transport boats, and ships less than 800 meters in size. If they are counted together, the total number of warships in the Covenant Empire fleet will reach a shocking 13,000 ships.

Among them, the warships with the largest number are the cockroach cruisers that invaded the Harvest Star, and the Murlin Mill flagship that targets the human aircraft carrier.

However, in the fleet, there are hundreds of super aircraft carriers with a size of over 30 kilometers.

If you don't care about quality, but only talk about quantity, size and population, the Covenant Empire is an existence that absolutely crushes human beings.

And those hundred super aircraft carriers are not the most prominent existence of this fleet, because the giant mushroom flagship, which is guarded by the fleet in the center, has a width of about 350 kilometers and a length of nearly 500 kilometers.

It is not so much a flagship as it is a small man-made celestial body, and it is also the capital of the Covenant Empire——

City of Fraternity.
