[Rebirth] Glory Stars

At some point, an old man with gray hair walked into the glass room, wearing a hospital gown, and a young nurse took care of him closely.

"Little girl, can you let my old man rest here for a while?"

"Okay, General Duke, I'll be back in half an hour." The nurse put the stumbling old man down, and then obediently left this quiet place.

The surname Duke is very common. There are more than a dozen "General Duke" on New Hope alone. Looking at the entire New Hope galaxy, it is even more difficult to say. Yannick recalled it carefully and found that there is no such old man in his memory. shadow.

Probably some old general who has retired, he secretly guessed.

"General Duke, nice to meet you."

Yannick greeted him politely, and the other party pulled him to sit down again in a friendly manner.

"Young man, what's your name? I've lived here for more than half a year, why haven't I seen you before?"

The other party's face was old, his eyesight was blurred, his voice was hoarse and weak, and he wobbled even more when he walked, looking terrible.

"Yannick." Yannick did not conceal his origin and identity: "I am a diplomatic envoy sent by the Blue Thorn Rose Galaxy. I just arrived in the New Hope Galaxy yesterday. Due to an accident on the way, my leg was injured. So he was placed here for treatment."

Hearing Yannick's name, the man was stunned, and a trace of unclear complex emotions flashed in his dim eyes: "The heir to the regime of New Hope Star was named Yannick Brandt...cough cough cough cough cough cough ..."

Before he finished speaking, the old man suddenly coughed heart-piercingly, and even his eye sockets became wet from the violent coughing. Yannick was startled, and quickly stretched out his hand to help him breathe.

"General Duke, are you okay? Shall I call the nurse back for you?"

When his breathing calmed down a bit, the old man waved his hands slowly, rejecting Yannick's kindness: "No need, I'm already 180 years old, and now I'm just waiting to die, so don't always torment others..."

Yannick hated seeing the old general put on such a twilight posture the most, it would make him feel that he hadn't done his job well enough.

"Until the last moment, how can you give up lightly."

Yannick blamed: "The general has been a soldier all his life, why did he back down at the last moment?"

Unexpectedly, I was accidentally "taught" by a ten-year-old kid. General Duke couldn't laugh or cry: "That's right, I'm just getting confused."

His eyes fell on Yannick's hospital gown, and he said kindly: "I heard that the envoy of Blue Thorn Rose was attacked by a double-headed snake when passing through the repeater yesterday. There were very few survivors, could it be Did you worry about this before?"

When he spoke to Yannick, there was a trace of nostalgic kindness, his eyes seemed to be looking at Yannick, but rather looking for the shadow of another person through him.

When someone brought up his worries again, Yannick frowned, and said helplessly, "It's precisely this matter. Several of my subordinates were hijacked by the two-headed snakes during this period."

Yannick regards the two-headed snake as a mortal enemy, and of course, he did not miss this opportunity to make enemies for the enemy.

As soon as he arrived at Venolia, Yannick borrowed New Hope's interstellar network to inform Blue Thorn Rose of the ins and outs of the matter in detail. Nothing was more convincing than Yannick's embarrassment. The attack by the double-headed snake already caused heavy losses, and with Yannick's embellishments, how could there be any reason for discord?

Seeing the worry in Yannick's heart, the old man said comfortingly: "It's good for young people to be brave, but don't always put too much pressure on yourself. The two-headed snake attacked the mission just to intimidate Blue Thorn Rose, Now that the real envoy has safely arrived on Novilia, there is no point in detaining your subordinates, and they will release them soon, so you can rest assured."

Yannick shook his head disapprovingly.

Yannick in his previous life was a member of New Hope, and emotionally speaking, he was naturally more inclined to the warlord organization that gave birth to him.

He told all the doubts he imagined just now: "The people of the double-headed snake don't seem to be specially going to hijack the envoy of Blue Thorn Rose. It seems that they ran into it by accident. I always feel that things will not go away So simple."

Yannick looked up at the old general, who was in the midst of thinking, with his muddy eyes closed, his brows slightly frowned, his fingers subconsciously tapped on the armrest, and he could vaguely glimpse the calmness and sophistication of his prime.

Yannick came to New Hope this time, firstly because he couldn't let go of the knot in his previous life, and secondly, because he had a very bold idea in his heart - to make friends with New Hope and Blue Thorn Rose, through Blue Thorn Rose The high-quality repeater locates the end point of m133's business route in the alliance here, and then uses the opportunity to make the Flying Wing Army and m133 grow stronger. This matter is a good opportunity to narrow the relationship between the two parties.

"Although I don't know the grievances between you and the two-headed snake, but only from the star map-New Hope and the two-headed snake are still [-] light-years away. Although the warp drive is fast, it consumes a lot of energy. , as long as you turn off the repeater, even if you are as powerful as a two-headed snake, I am afraid that you cannot afford such a huge war expense?"

"You mean..." The old man looked at him thoughtfully.

"New Hope has two mass repeaters - Marta-3a large-scale mass repeater and Sophia-12b medium-scale mass repeater. Just as you imagined, General Duke, the Blue Thorn Mission team was attacked At that time, I just passed through the Sophia-12b medium-sized mass repeater."

"So this conflict was actually an accident at all. The purpose of the double-headed snake is not the mission, but to investigate the deployment of our army near the repeater!"

The old man's face became gloomy: "I'll go to see Coach Ludwig in the afternoon. The repeater is too important to us. If it is occupied by the double-headed snake, the consequences will be disastrous."

It turns out that instead of influencing New Hope upwards through his subordinates, students, etc., he met directly... This old man's status seems to be much higher than he imagined, but why is there no such Duo in his memory? What about General Ke's memory?

Yannick became more and more strange.

"Child, thank you for reminding me about this matter. I am here to thank you on behalf of New Hope."

"The old general is polite. The New Hope galaxy is full of talents. Even if I don't say it, someone will analyze it soon."

"You're a humble kid."

The old man laughed and patted Yannick on the shoulder appreciatively: "So mature and steady at such a young age, if only my grandson had your temperament... Sigh, that child is just too stubborn and spoiled by his father broken."

Yannick was so praised by him that he felt a little embarrassed: "I used to be young and ignorant, and I didn't know how many mistakes I made. Now that I am getting older, and I have experienced a lot of things this year, I started to gradually I know how to restrain my temper. Even so, I always seem a little shallow in the world, and I have to ask someone to remind me that I have made a mistake." He said annoyed.

The old man smiled tolerantly: "There is no such thing as a young man who does not make mistakes. It is a good thing to be strong, but don't be too harsh on yourself."

He looked Yannick up and down, and suddenly heaved a long sigh: "Your child... is very similar to my grandson. He doesn't like to laugh, and he always has a sullen face at a young age. He is smarter and precocious than his peers, very mature. Has military talent..." Tears gradually welled up in his eyes, and he recited the man's story back and forth like a treasure.

He spoke carefully, including the person's behavior habits, routine, even picky food, favorite color, and details of clothing. Yannick just listened politely at first, but in the end he was so shocked that he couldn't speak...

"I've been forgetting to tell you my name—Valentin Duke, general of New Hope Star. I have lived here for more than half a year, and my condition is much better now. I will end my treatment and return to New Hope Star tomorrow. If you If you are free, welcome to New Hope Star to chat with me. I am old, and now I like to listen to children as old as you. At your age, your brains turn quickly, and you have many thoughts in your heart..."

Valentine Duke, Admiral New Hope... This man turned out to be his grandfather—Admiral Valentine!

After chatting with him for so long, Yannick didn't realize that this person was the domineering Admiral Valentine in his memory!

The cheekbones are high, the eye sockets are sunken, and the face is full of ravines. It is hard to see the heroic spirit of fighting against the invasion of the double-headed snake with millions of soldiers.

I haven't seen him for a year, how could he... how could he be so old!

Yannick's hand clenched suddenly, and his heart beat violently.

There was a rustling sound outside the house, and the crisp complaints gradually approached along with the noisy footsteps, and familiar faces appeared in the field of vision again.

"Oh, it's disgusting, the juice from the leaves is spilling on my clothes!"

There was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside the bushes, and a young shadow rushed into Admiral Valentine's arms like a gust of wind.

"Grandpa Valentine! I guessed that you must be here again. Nock came to see you. Miss me?"

The boy who laughed and acted like a baby to Admiral Valentine was Yannick's former companion and bodyguard, and Second Lieutenant Nock, who had a bronze complexion and was the same age as Yannick!

"Think about it, why don't you think about it, your kid is sweet..."

Admiral Valentine laughed heartily at his little childlike gesture.

Nock... Colonel?Didn't he already die on the way to help?Why are you alive now?When did you become so close to Admiral Valentine? !

What happened in the year when I "died"?

Yannick put his hands behind his back, his eyes drooped slightly, for fear of being seen as something wrong with him.

"Admiral!"

It was a familiar voice again, without looking up, he knew that the other party must be Colonel Reinhardt, who was most favored by Admiral Valentine.

"You're here too? Reinhardt."

as predicted.

"Yes, I heard that you plan to return to New Hope, so I came here to pick you up."

The young man glanced at Yannick, who was wearing a hospital gown with his head bowed, "Who are you?"

Nock didn't even give him a look, he just grabbed Valentine to chat.

Yannick was silent for a while, then slowly raised his head suddenly, blue eyes swept over the flamboyant Nock, with a formulaic smile on his face: "My name is Yannick."

The glass room, which was still a little crowded and noisy just now, suddenly fell silent, and dozens of pairs of surprised eyes turned to Yannick.

Noke stopped joking, his face turned pale, and he forced a smile: "Your name is quite common."

"Common?" Yannick smiled, staring into his eyes, but the other party evasively refused to meet his gaze.

"Colonel Nock is right. I heard that the heir to the regime before your New Hope Star was named Yannick. Is that true? What a coincidence."

There was silence again.

Nock's face became more and more ugly.

"Who are you?" He asked almost word for word, but he didn't get an answer until the end.

Yannick bowed politely, and said goodbye to Admiral Valentine who suddenly fell silent: "General Valentine, I have something else to do, so I won't bother you."
