The Last Omega

The representatives of the various bases participating in the celebration were arranged in the Double Star Palace.

There is a tall tower on the left and right sides of the palace, which is the tallest building in Xingdian.If you climb the tower and look from a distance, you can see patches of green and purple spreading across the ground. They are tall trees and flowering trees planted in Xingdian. Purple flowers grow especially well in Xingdian.Until the end of the horizon, the two colors will be hidden by a dazzling golden light.

After a brief greeting, Orson White couldn't wait to express his desire to visit the Twin Star Towers.Sean generously gave the authorization of the star tower on the left, and personally took a few visitors to the top of the tower by taking the elevator.

When they stepped onto the viewing platform, several people exclaimed in unison.

"This is the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen." Orson opened his mouth wide and shouted a few times, then opened his arms and took a few deep breaths intoxicated.

Uriel followed Sean, and opened his eyes wide at this time, staring at the scene in front of him almost absent-mindedly.

"The ecology of Xingdian is very close to that of the earth. In order to protect the environment here, we have exercised extreme restraint." Sean slowly walked to the edge of the observation tower, his impeccable facial features were coated with gold by the skylight, and became more and more fierce , "We gave up improving the soil to cultivate food, and mining in Xingdian is strictly prohibited. Tens of thousands of civilians can only grow flowers and fruits and vegetables... If I remember correctly, these two businesses seem to be in trouble at the fourth base. There's a little resistance."

Sean turned around and looked at Orson slowly.

The wind on the viewing platform was a bit strong, and Orson's bloomers were bulging.Uriel turned sideways and walked towards the sheltered place.

"Yes, it's just a little resistance." Orson took two steps forward against the wind and stood beside Sean, "If Major General Sean is willing to marry me, this little resistance will disappear." exists."

"Is this the Duke of White's intention to make things difficult?"

"Oh no, no, that's not the case." Orson laughed loudly, and looked around again, "This kind of language trap is not fun. But let me say that although my education prevents me from admitting all accusations, in my opinion It’s bullshit to come here. We are not afraid of anything, and there is no unified regime or judge here who can convict me and make me accept punishment.”

"That was at least a diplomatic incident."

"But there is no United Nations in the interstellar world. Now we human beings only have three major bases. Besides us, there is only the first base that is so poor that we can eat dirt. Could it be that the problems between us should be adjudicated by the first base? Don't be kidding." Sen shrugged and said disapprovingly, "They don't even have a decent battleship."

Uriel raised his head slightly and glanced at Orson.Coincidentally, the other party was also looking at him. After the two of them met their eyes, Orson sneered, "I want to throw this Omega down."

Uriel looked at him in surprise, then hesitated, and hid behind Sean.As if Orson couldn't see him that way.

Orson let out a contemptuous sneer.

"If Second Lieutenant Rhine is like this, I will be disappointed." Orson glanced at Sean, "You know, if you marry me, you can send as many flowers as Xingdian wants. Of course, if you can't figure it out for a while, There is another solution, too."

"It doesn't seem like a good idea." Sean glanced at a few people on the platform, "I want you to go to great lengths to dismiss my followers."

"That's what the family taught." Orson said, "We found a kind of contaminated bacteria in the grain exported from the first base. The reproductive capacity of this contaminated bacteria is terrible, and it can cause death. In fact, our fourth base Thousands of people have died as a result."

"Contamination bacteria in the first base?" Sean was unmoved, "Does this have something to do with the flowers in our third base?"

"Of course. We added a test procedure at the customs because we detected contaminated bacteria. Now your flowers, fruits and vegetables are waiting in line for testing." Orson said, "Actually, we should all hold the responsibility of the first base, They are the ones who cost us so much."

Sean said nothing more, but turned and walked away a little.

Uriel knew he was thinking.

"I will prepare a good negotiating table for you at the alliance celebration." Sean replied cautiously.

"But what we want is not negotiation. Our fourth base is not short of money, and we don't need any compensation from the poor slums." Orson smiled slowly, showing his white teeth, "What we need is safety. And based on the friendly relationship between our three and four bases, the Duke hopes that the third base will also take strict precautions. In this way, we can not only protect our people, but also maintain our friendship with each other."

After saying this, although everyone present was from the fourth base except Sean, everyone fell silent.

This proposal is undoubtedly intended to unite with the third base to impose economic sanctions on the first base.And since the first base depends on the food industry for survival, and there are very few alien races in the universe that can trade peacefully, so once this agreement is reached, the predicament that the first base will face can be imagined.

In the next few days, Sean was obviously busy.

He didn't give Orson any answer on the viewing platform, and of course the latter didn't expect him to express his opinion.This is a major event for the two bases, and the various forces that can participate in it, in addition to the Sylvia family, there are other chambers of commerce and colonial representatives.

Orson's early arrival was also to win the support of all parties. He met privately with all council members and was too busy to embarrass Uriel.

And these days, Uriel, as Major General Sheen's Omega, has shown enough limelight in front of the visitors.This was something Shane hadn't thought of.Because he doesn't see visitors every day.Reception matters are usually handled by the base's diplomatic corps. Unless he meets a high-ranking or special guest, he will personally receive it on behalf of the Sylvia family.

During this period, Uriel has been working diligently on the vase beside him, quiet, obedient and beautiful.But for some reason, the next few waves of visitors, especially many representatives from Resource Star, seemed to regard Uriel as his partner.

Uriel obviously enjoyed it.He often dressed up to meet these guests from afar.

"Major General and Second Lieutenant Rhine are classmates. They are both excellent, so they are naturally attracted to each other." Uriel was wearing a snow-white dress trimmed with gold thread, sitting in the middle of the crowd, with compassionate eyes like an angel descending from the world, "But they also encountered secular obstacles while they were in love. You must know that Major General Sean's status is too prominent."

"Yes." Someone responded, "I heard that White from the Fourth Base has also taken a fancy to Major General Sean."

There was a buzz in the crowd.

This kind of thing that everyone in the third base knows is still gossip for the resource stars who rarely go out.

"Yes." Uriel nodded lightly, affirming their guess, "Major General Sean loves Second Lieutenant Rhine deeply, and he gave up the family inheritance right for this reason, so now our commander is Carrie Sylvia .”

"Wow—" everyone exclaimed.

"Major General participated in many battles for Rhine, and so did Second Lieutenant Rhine. He is our best Omega..." Uriel's clear voice continued, "But, we lost him later..."

"Ah—" The gossip crowd who had been certified again boiled up, "I heard that the fiancé of this major general is missing?"

"Yes." Uriel said softly, "We have been looking for it. For the major general, this longing and pain can be seen deep in his bones, and it is his true love."

"What about you?" Someone else asked, "Ah, I didn't intend to offend, but it seems that the major general also cares about Mr. Uriel."

When Sean and Allen came in, they heard the questions of this group of people.Sean frowned slightly and stopped involuntarily.

"Ah? No, no," in the crowd, the corners of Uriel's eyes blushed a little, animal-like eyes were wet, and faintly nervous, "I, I'm just a stand-in."

"how could be?"

"Really, I am just a substitute for Second Lieutenant Rhine, temporarily relieving the major general's pain." Ulier said, "Because I am always by the major general's side, I can better understand his pain and his respect for the major general." Second Lieutenant Rhine's deep love... If this is a punishment for them, I would rather this punishment fall on the insignificant me..."

"Ah..." Alan said suddenly behind him, "My Uriel is too kind."

In the crowd, some people were affected by the sad atmosphere, and their expressions suddenly became much darker. Some put their hands together, and some silently crossed themselves.

Something strange flashed through Sean's mind, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Hey." Allen was still chattering, "You said, he won't really fall in love with you, right?"

Shane gave him a blank look.

Allen reminded him again: "You promised to give him to me later."

"What you say is true." Sean nodded, "But Rhine and I went to school together to attract each other, and even gave up the right of inheritance for him... Is this what you said?"

"Ah..." Allen blinked, "You told me to say it."

"I'll ask you to remind him, make a good arrangement and don't make trouble for me."

"Well, that's what I said, but I made it artistically to let him know that you can't hold others in your heart." Allen said, "Look, doesn't this work well?"

Some people in the distance have already started to ask Ulier about the food and scenery of the third base. Ulier is not clear about many things, but his tone of voice is warm and soft, which is very pleasing.

Sean stepped towards the crowd.

When Uriel looked up and saw him, his expression panicked for a moment.Sean gave him a meaningful look, and then looked at the representatives gathered here.

Everyone was overwhelmed by his lonely aura, and fell silent instantly.

"We just got a piece of news." Sean stood still and looked around, "The spaceship at the first base has malfunctioned, and the alliance celebration day may not be able to reach Xingdian."

The quiet crowd suddenly became commotion.

Someone protested: "The celebration notices are sent out ten days in advance. Although the first base is far away, it's not impossible to make it ten days later, right?"

"Yeah, that's too arrogant."

"We've been waiting here for three days, how long will we have to wait?"

"Well, I have a question." The other person wondered, "I'm from Daura, and we are also the resource star closest to the First Base. We set off on the same day as the First Base. If the calculation is correct, they You should be able to reach Xingdian today."

Everyone looked at this person, who raised his hand and took a step forward: "We just arrived at Daura Star yesterday. Major General, if there is a problem with the spaceship of the first base, do they have any feedback on where it is? "

"This information is encrypted, and I don't know more detailed information." Sean looked at the man and said, "After one standard hour, the commander-in-chief will meet you in the conference hall to discuss whether to postpone the celebration day."

After he finished speaking, he gave everyone a slight nod and walked outside.

Uriel was waiting for him under the porch.

"Everyone," the man from Star Daura suddenly raised his voice and stood where he was just now, "Everyone, allow me to delay everyone for a while. I know that waiting is an annoying and even frustrating thing, but no matter what , please be more tolerant to the compatriots at the first base."

"Because they are poor?" Someone asked sarcastically.

"No, although they are indeed poor. But this time, I implore everyone to wait for it, because it has waited for us for a long time." The representative of Star Daura suddenly paused, "During the Battle of Rose Star."

Sean kept walking, and when he passed by Uriel, he glanced at this Omega.

Uriel followed up with great interest.

It wasn't until he got outside the palace that Sean turned around and glanced at him, "Are you willing to tell everyone about me?"

Uriel glanced at him timidly, shrinking his neck, "I was wrong."

"Heh," Sean looked at him amusedly, "what's wrong with you?"

"I, I shouldn't talk about the major general."

"I don't care."

"...I shouldn't have mentioned Second Lieutenant Rhine."

"That's no secret either."

"..." Uriel was stunned for a moment, and looked at him blankly, "Then I, shouldn't I tell everyone that I'm a stand-in?"

"Everyone knows about this. I don't want you to be regarded as my representative compared to everyone knowing that you are a substitute." Sean turned around and looked at him with a frown, "...forget it."

He just felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't tell where the problem was.

Uriel was dumbfounded for a moment, and then let out a dumbfounded "Oh".

The two walked out along the wide road in front of the palace.

The weak sunlight in the afternoon outlined the beautiful outline of Uriel's profile.Sean originally planned to let him go back first, but when he turned his face away, he was stunned by this scene - Uriel under the dim light had a subtle sense of indifference.

It was the first time Sean noticed that his skin was like warm jade, tight and moist, and the lines of the brow bone and the bridge of the nose were much sharper than those of other Omegas... There was a strange sense of disobedience.

"Major General?" Uriel noticed his gaze and raised his head suspiciously.

Sean skillfully showed an impatient expression, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just curious, is the first base poor?" Uriel asked, "What about the Battle of the Rose Star?"

Sean couldn't help but look at his face again.However, the strange feeling just now disappeared again.

"The Battle of the Rose Star..." Sean knew that these discussions were indispensable recently, thought for a while, and said, "That is the nightmare of all interstellar humans."

Rose Star was originally a very livable colonial star in the second base.In terms of scenery, Xingdian is not as good as the other one tenth.

Until one year, the Hewas, an extraterrestrial race, slaughtered the second base and the two nearby resource planets, and used Rose Star as a place to reward the army—they thought human beings were a kind of delicious food, so they captured The human defense forces and civilians who arrived were taken to Rose Star, where they were killed and eaten collectively...

Half of the hundreds of thousands of human beings were melted under the flames of war and high-temperature particle beams, and the other half went to the table of the Hewa people.

The Human Alliance was shocked and fought back regardless of the cost.Although the Hwa were expelled in the end, they paid a heavy price.Especially the First Base, which was the first to support at that time-they lost all the Alpha troops.

The best second base ever was gone.And the most affluent first base, after losing its powerful defense force, also encountered various troubles one after another, so that it finally regressed back to the farming era.

-

"We should retain basic respect for the First Base." The representative of Star Daura stood up and said to everyone, "The First Base is the land of our heroes."

"That's the place where heroes are buried." Orson White sniffled and squinted at him. "It's a place for Omega and Beta, and no hero can escape."

There were a few obscene low laughs in the meeting hall.

The representative from the colony planet of the third base frowned slightly: "The reason why the first base is Omega is because they dispatched all troops without reservation in that war. The people of our star Sipu have always respected them, We are willing to wait a few days and postpone the celebration day."

"Our Blau star is also willing."

"We don't want to." Some people began to object, "The Battle of the Rose Star was a disaster for mankind, and the First Base was just more unlucky. And it has been 20 years, should we tolerate them all the time for this inexplicable reason?"

"The celebration has only been held this time for ten years." The representative of Star Daura asked, "I don't know where it comes from tolerating it all the time?"

"There are contaminated bacteria in the food sold to us by the First Base." The man said, "Don't you all know?"

There was a buzzing sound in the meeting hall, and it boiled up.

"Everyone, if everyone thinks they can live for a few more days, can we talk about food and other topics in a few days?" Carrie Sylvia looked at the crowd and said lazily, "I have worked hard to make myself Stop swearing, but it seems a bit difficult at the moment."

The meeting hall finally fell silent, and everyone looked at her in unison.After all, Carrie Sylvia was famous for her violent temper, and it was the first time for everyone to show up, so they didn't want to be scolded.

"Very well, it seems that everyone doesn't like swearing. Actually, I don't like it either, but I can't control it. There are always things that make me angry." Carrie crossed her legs and shrugged helplessly, "Then Alright, let's go straight to the voting..."

"Commander," Fellini interrupted her cautiously, "we don't know the situation of the first base yet. For example, how many people they came this time, who came forward, and where did the spaceship encounter any problems this time? Let's make better choices."

Many people nodded in agreement.

"Oh, that's a good question, but I don't know anything about it." Carrie paused and patted her head. "No, I still know one thing."

After she finished speaking, she called up her data pad, raised her eyebrows and looked at it, "...the representative of the First Base, his name is... Well, Linton, Major General Linton."
