[Rebirth] Glory Stars

The stars slant to the west, the sunset greets each other, and the Novella star falls at dusk.

When the oxygen-enriched repair liquid reflected golden waves, Yannick finally took his eyes off the face of the man in deep anesthesia. He walked quickly to the console, turned the window into a translucent mode, and re-opened the window. Filtered light is set.The dusk gradually dissipated, and the lighting in the medical room slowly melted into a low-light tone that was conducive to the patient's recuperation.

His eyes glanced at the green plants beside the console, and he picked them up with his white hands and held them in his arms, and then gently placed them on the shelf next to the nutrition tank.

After finishing all this, he returned to the seat again and carefully looked at Li He who was sleeping in the nutrition jar.

When he came out of the "Battle Angel", although Li He was still in good spirits, his face was pale, obviously seriously injured.Yannick didn't know whether the artificial nerve embolism technology developed by New Hope and Thorn Galaxy would have any sequelae. The only thing he could do was to send him to the most advanced hospital in New Hope Galaxy as quickly as possible. receive treatment.

It is neither handsome nor ugly.The forehead is relatively low, the profile of the face is smooth, and there are several "black sesame seeds" that Yannick has teased countless times.Uh... Also, when he was naked and lying in the water, he looked in good shape. He silently turned on his mobile device and took pictures for his records.

Because I was concerned about his injuries before, I forgot to push him into the water with my own hands in order to retaliate for what he had done to me. Now that I think about it, it is really regrettable.

Li He's family background is ordinary, his background is clean, he treats people peacefully, works in an orderly manner, and rarely lets himself get caught up in right and wrong.

It is a kind of ordinaryness that can be annihilated among all living beings.

If he was still the dazzling and aloof heir to the New Hope regime before his rebirth, he probably wouldn't even look at this kind of person.

If it wasn't because of the serious injuries and actions after rebirth, if it wasn't because they were not familiar with m133's situation, if it wasn't because they were in urgent need of help, even after rebirth, they might still have no intersection in this life until they die of old age.

Yannick will work hard in m133 for many years, gradually take the asteroid as his own, and finally return to New Hope, become or win over an S-class mecha pilot, and avenge his past self.

Failed, but once again repeated the fate of being killed by Chijin Tong.If he succeeds, maybe he will really accept Admiral Valentine's proposal, marry a former clan sister/sister, and become the owner of New Hope Star again.

As for Li He, who was not knocked out by him and forced to stay in m133, he will go to Kakaya with his colleagues according to the established plan, and become an unknown little policeman, busy with security patrols all day long, waiting for a promotion opportunity.

This is the trajectory of their lives - spending their lives on two planets tens of thousands of light-years apart, so very different.

There were hurried footsteps coming from outside the medical room, knowing that this moment of tranquility had passed, Yannick suddenly felt reluctant to part with him.

"Hey! I said, you haven't finished inspecting the goods yet!"

Isanel seemed to never know what quiet is. He hurried into the infirmary, his eyes aiming in the direction of the nutrition tank.

"What's the matter?" Yannick calmly occupied the visual focus, and Isanel tried a few times without giving up, but he couldn't see what he wanted to see.

"Stinger." He muttered in a low voice, and said carefreely: "Just now New Hope sent an urgent military report, saying that a mobile repeater was also found near another asteroid belt, and we will continue to fight Already!"

"You tell your subordinates to gather quickly, and we will go to the war zone!"

Yannick quickly ended his rambling associations, and quickly became a visitor who worried about the illness of his relatives and friends in temperament, and turned into a leader who devoted himself to war.

"……wait me back."

Touching the door with his palm, he looked back and silently read to Li He who was still asleep.

The victory in the first battle undoubtedly greatly boosted the morale of New Hope. Although the subsequent battle was still tense, the degree of danger could no longer match that of the initial battle.He quickly put all his body and mind into the battle, and with the deeds of the first battle, he spread the name of the Double Wing Army and m133 among the friendly forces of several galaxies, and took the opportunity to raise the issue with several galaxies that are closer to each other. The matter of business cooperation has been quite effective.

Until the end of another two-week battlefield light years away, Yannick was finally exhausted and fell asleep on the way back...

It's still that dream.

The Chijin Pupil drove the 16-year-old Yannick into a corner. Desperately, he drove the humanoid mecha "Fengshen" into the enemy's camp, and chose to die under the inconceivable eyes of the enemy.

But what is different from before is that now Yannick has changed from a party to a bystander.

The golden mech rushed over ferociously, but the "Fengshen" had been destroyed, and the "Bibyl" was still parked in the maintenance dock and it was too late to get out.

Just when he thought he was bound to die, the "Battle Angel" descended from the sky and protected him behind him.

In the interstellar, in the clouds, on the top of the mountain, at the bottom of the sea... He risked his life and fought bloody battles with the enemy. The right belly of the "Battle Angel" was pierced and torn, the left wing was broken, and the feather sword was also cracked. The joints of the whole body are flickering with short-circuit electric light.The enemy's particle cannon aimed and fired several times, nearly blasting him to pieces.

Yannick looked terrified, ten thousand times more nervous than his own dream of being killed.

Until the "Battle Angel" cut the enemy under the feather sword, the man had a triumphant smile on his mouth, showing off his achievements to him.The scene was very bloody, but Yannick felt extremely excited.

In the end, exhausted Li Heping lay on the ground, his limbs stretched out, his expression calm, the color of the clouds reflected in his black eyes, as if he had a piece of sky in his eyes.And Yannick seemed to never see that S-class mecha that he hated so much, and they chatted leisurely on that dreamlike golden plain.

……

On the way home, those friendly troops who came to visit the flagship in the shuttle will always mention Li He, the ace mecha pilot of the Flying Army who beheaded the enemy's veteran general, and at this time, the old man who had been smoothed by time General Yi Jun would also greet them with a smile, and gradually lead the topic to the issue of trade routes.

But as this kind of people's interest in Li Hyuk increased, the uneasiness in Yannick's heart also spread layer by layer.And this anxiety finally reached its peak before returning to the hospital ward.

The soldiers on duty are no longer members of the Winged Army, but soldiers wearing Thorn galaxy badges. A large number of gifts have piled up outside the door, as well as gift givers with eager expressions.

"Don't squeeze. Don't squeeze."

"You stepped on me!"

"Line up! Did you hear that..."

A major in the Thorn Galaxy stopped in embarrassment and explained to Yannick apologetically.

"It turned out to be someone from the Double Wing Army...I'm sorry, General."

Those noisy people outside finally quieted down, but one or two looked at Yannick with hostility and disdain.

These people are all from the forces that want to recruit Li He, and each of them has the strength no less than that of the Flying Wing Army. Those forces may not have the confidence to poach New Hope's corner, but the Flying Wing Army?They only have the current achievements by holding on to New Hope. The people of New Hope don't have much scruples about poaching people because of their face.

"Who asked you to stand guard here? Where are my soldiers? Where did Major General Li He go?"

Edelman rushed over to question angrily.

"Admiral Tristan of our Thorn galaxy invited Major General Li He to a dinner on the dreadnought... As for your soldiers, they probably went to rest."

The major apologized: "I'm very sorry, we didn't expect you to come back so soon, otherwise, Admiral Tristan would definitely send you an invitation."

Edelman looked at Yannick helplessly.

Yannick was silent for a while, and finally smiled tolerantly.

"Say hello to Admiral Tristan for me. It just so happens that Admiral Valentine of New Hope has invited the generals above the rank of Major General of the Wing Army to a banquet tonight. Please inform Major General Li He about this. Admiral Valentine The general is very kind to him, if he can't arrive in time, the general will be unhappy."

"This one……"

The major nodded reluctantly: "If I meet Major General Li He, I will definitely bring this with me."

"Thank you very much then."

"There are so many people who want to poach the wall, so Li He must have been poached, right?" Edelman whispered in Yanick's ear without any scheming.

That night, until the end of the banquet, Li He didn't show up either.As the only s-class mecha pilot in the biwing army, and the major general who just killed the Chijin Tong, which even Reinhard, who had 40 years of driving experience, could not destroy, it was a bit unreasonable for him not to attend.Admiral Valentine asked several times, but Yannick had no choice but to round up for him vaguely.

During the dinner, Admiral Valentine once again brought up the proposal that he should marry a Brandt sister after the prestige of this battle, and become the master of the New Hope regime again.

Yannick refused without thinking.

But this time, how much is for the ideal, and how much is for the vague feeling that cannot be expressed?

Seeing Yannick's absent-mindedness, and thinking about Li He's absence, Valentine, who is old and mature, somewhat understands.

"Is it because of that kid?"

Even if he didn't roll his name, Yannick could understand who Valentine was talking about, so he had no choice but to choose to deny it in embarrassment under the eyes of the old general who hated iron and steel.

It didn't make her feel any better. After the banquet, Yannick finally dialed Li He's interstellar communication unbearably.

busy tone.

Dial again - still busy tone.

It wasn't until the next night that Yannick finally connected with him, but after that, he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Ask him why he accepted the banquet from the Thorn Galaxy?Ask him why he turned off the communicator?Ask him why he didn't let the soldiers of the Flying Wing Army guard him?

Lee Hyuk once promised him that he would help him, and he did.Promised him to avenge him, and he did.Now that the commitment has been fulfilled, what position does he have to keep him at m133?

Even though the development is rapid, compared to the bright Thorn galaxy, m133 is just a dull grain of sand. What they can give Li He is far greater than what m133 can give.

Complex emotions flashed in the light blue eyes, shock, anger, loss, sadness, and finally all turned into the deepest sadness in the eyes.

"What's the matter? I'm a little busy here."

"Where?"

"In...the Thorn Galaxy, there are some things to do."

"For no reason, where did you go and what did you do?"

There was a harsh noise on the other end of the line, probably due to interference from magnetic waves, and the communication was interrupted.He looked at the communication device in his hand in a daze for a while, and then called Edelman with a gloomy face, who had been waiting outside for a long time.

"Get ready, we will return to m133 in three days."

"Huh? So fast? Don't wait for the war here to end?"

"The enemy has already destroyed two mobile repeaters by us, and there will be no major battles in a short time. After all, the double-headed snake is a giant in the alliance, and it will take a long-term plan to uproot it."

"But Major General Li He hasn't come back yet."

"He's not coming back."

Yannick said bitterly.

"what?"

"Hurry up and get ready!"

He broke out suddenly, his eyes widened, and he gave the dawdling Edelman a hard meal.

Under Yannick's insistence, the Flying Wing Army launched the battle against the double-headed snake ahead of time. Coach Ludwig was a little displeased with this, but thinking of the Flying Wing Army's contribution to this battle, some words were still left unsaid. And Yannick just didn't know.

On the way back, Yannick, who had worked hard for a long time, fell asleep again.

First, there are some scattered memory fragments, from childhood, to childhood, to teenager, to the battle that took his life.

Only this time, there was no sign of Li Hyuk there, no one could protect him and charge forward for him.

As a young man, he was driving the Fengshen, and was bombarded and killed by the opponent's laser sword time and time again.

Like a slowed-down camera, he is fighting, roaring, and crying bitterly in the picture.He watched his body in the cockpit submerged in hot liquid, his muscles were corroded and fell off step by step, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed from a handsome young man into a pile of white bones.

Yannick felt inexplicably wronged.

During this period of time, Kate, Berry, Arvison, Eric, Zudolph, Ball and other officers were all cautious, for fear of offending the uncertain Yannick, and even the aloof General Backhouse made excuses The military was busy and went out to perform tasks.

"Hey...you didn't see it just now, the general's anger came up in a flash, it scared me to death..."

With lingering fear, Eric and his colleagues got together to think about countermeasures.

"Can you enter menopause in your twenties?"

Edelman was extremely curious.

"Why hasn't Li Hyuk come back? With him, we don't have to worry about being scolded anymore."

"Li Hyuk has always been very good at diverting Yannick's attention."

"I promise that as soon as he comes back, our general will be able to heal himself without medicine!"

However, Li He, who was eagerly awaited by his colleagues, did not rush back to m133 until a week later. At that time, Yannick was already urging his subordinates to hold an awarding ceremony for the soldiers who had made military exploits.

Their meeting again was different from Li Hyuk's imagination.

Yannick was carefully reading the notices about the awarding ceremony. Li He pushed open the door, and under the surprised eyes of all the officers, he lightly raised a finger, making a "shut up" gesture.

He made a pleading gesture again, clearing the room under their teasing eyes.

"General Buckhouse needs to make some changes here. After all, he doesn't belong to our Winged Army. It's better to distinguish the style of the medals awarded..."

The warm air came oncoming, and the man deliberately blocked the light, so that the young officer who was immersed in his official duties couldn't help but look up at him.

"I'm back, Yannick."

Yannick looked at him coldly, and then opened the communication shortcut key on the control panel that could connect to Guard Captain Edelman.

"Hey, who messed with you again?"

Li He quickly grabbed his arm before the other party pressed the button, Yannick just remained silent.

"I fought on the battlefield for you. I went through life and death. There is no credit but hard work. Now I finally came back from the Thorn galaxy. How about you say 'keep it up'?"

"How? What else? I don't care if you come back or when you come back!" Yannick shook off his restraint forcefully: "You are now a rare S-class mech pilot in the Andromeda galaxy, and you just Beheading an ace fighter with 40 years of driving experience is naturally not something that can be left in a small place like m133. Your promise to me has been fulfilled. From now on, you don’t need to go with me wherever you want to go. report."

He spoke calmly, but his words were full of repelling meaning.

"When did I say I'm coming?" Li He said helplessly, "Don't make trouble for no reason, okay?"

"I'm making trouble for no reason? Li Hyuk, don't put on an act with me. Didn't you intend to take advantage of me from the beginning?" He stared at that person unwillingly, mixed with disappointment and anger.

"From the first time I saw you, you led me step by step into the chess game you set up. First, you showed your honesty and ability to make me feel that you can be trusted, and then you showed your wit and bravery to make me feel that you are suitable for me. A staff officer or commando, when I was short of manpower, you started to show off that you can machine armor and have superb skills, Bauer went to persuade you, you started to pretend again and refused to surrender, which whetted my appetite, and when I was ready to let you go, you started to borrow Xiao Li let me discover more of your strengths, and I couldn't stop... Later, when you went to Kakya Star, you simply wanted to gather the old troops to form a force and gain a foothold in the Winged Army."

"From a staff officer with no real power to an officer with real power in charge, to today's S-class mecha pilot. I was fooled by you. I was stupid, so I believed you and tried my best to help you become a S-class mecha pilot, now that you have become famous in one battle and become the target of all the major forces in the Andromeda Galaxy, why do you have to come back and pretend that you are not going to leave?"

He used to have great trust in him, but now, after he had figured everything out, he was suddenly extremely discouraged and full of resentment.

"Who told you these words?" Li He said with a gloomy expression, "Baor? Zudolf? Or Isanel?"

"You're finally willing to admit it?" Yannick turned his face away. "Let's go. You have fulfilled your promise to me. You don't owe me anything. I was used by you to achieve your goal. I don't owe you any more."

Li He's expression changed several times, and finally the words were almost bit out from the tip of his teeth: "Do you think you are using you by doing everything? Yannick, you and I have known each other for ten years, and I am this kind of person in your heart ?”

That background just stood in front of the window indifferently, neither explaining nor holding back.

"You don't understand at all what kind of faith I used to survive the artificial nerve embolism operation with a mortality rate of [-] out of [-], and you don't even know what kind of faith I relied on to be so desperate when I was fighting the Chijin Tong Death, I have been studying abroad for ten years, and I have walked on the verge of death several times, but why am I so happy..."

He took out a few paper envelopes from the package and slammed them on the ground. They were the suicide notes he had left when his life was in danger several times.

"I'm so worthless for myself!"

He slammed the door and left, leaving Yannick alone in a daze in the empty office.

After a long time, he picked up those letters hesitantly—he opened the first letter, and his whole body was stunned, then the second letter, third letter, and No.12 letter.

There is only one sentence in each letter.

Yannick rushed out of the office frantically, grabbed the guard on duty, and shouted loudly: "Where is Li He? Where did he go?"

"He..." The guard was almost out of breath by him: "Major General Li He just said that he asked Captain Edelman to prepare a starship for him. It seems that he is going to which galaxy?"

Yannick tried to contact Li He, but the other party's communicator had been turned off. He quickly connected to Edelman's communication, but what he got was the news that the other party had left m133 in a starship.

He retreated to his office in disappointment, and began to feel extremely regretful for his unreasonable outburst.

The days without him, he began to suffer from insomnia all night long.During the day, I always have uncontrollable cranky thoughts, and my mind is in a mess all day long, and I can't lift my spirits when doing anything.Dull as if coated with a layer of diaphragm with the outside world.

I don't want to move, I don't want to hear, I don't want to see, I don't want to wake up...

They were bound together by an invisible thread, entangled and penetrated each other, but now, suddenly, the man on the other end broke free from the shackles.

This made Yannick at a loss and at a loss.

He was so exhausted that he didn't have the heart to hide his depression any more. Anyone in the Flying Wing Army who had eyes could already see that something was wrong with him.

The day finally came to the awarding ceremony. Yannick, who was wearing a military uniform, cheered up and boarded the rostrum to award the titles to the soldiers who had made great achievements in battle. All the officers were beaming, but he just mechanically said words of encouragement, and mechanically pinned the military medals on the tray to their chests.

When his finger touched the last military medal, he took it step by step in the palm of his hand, but when he looked up, he found that there was nothing in front of him.

Yannick was stunned for a while, and looked at his guard captain questioningly.

"It belongs to Major General Li Hyuk..." Edelman excitedly said.

A different kind of complex emotion flashed across his eyes, and he rubbed his fingers unconsciously on it. When he wanted to put it back into the tray, he found that the soldier holding the medal tray had already retreated, and he had to stand awkwardly on the rostrum Facing the expectant eyes of all the officers, he didn't know what to say.

"Look! The Battle Angel is coming!"

Someone shouted excitedly, followed by more excited roars.

Yannick couldn't wait to look at the sky where the sound of breaking through the sky was, where a blue-black four-wing mecha with the uniform color of the biwing army was flying in the sky in glory mode.

His flying movements are as smooth as before, and the brilliant light effect has never been diminished by the brilliance of the stars.

"Double cross trajectory! It's our major general's famous stunt!"

"It's so exciting!"

The Battle Angel spins, jumps, and operates in disorder in disguise in the sky...

He showed off all the difficult flying maneuvers he learned during his ten-year study tour, as if he was showing off his strength, or as if he was luring more young people to become mech pilots who can freely fly among the stars member.

The black wings are like burning flames, dyeing the entire sky into the desired dream.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of "biwing birds" soared into the sky and danced with him in the sky... This is the original flight performance program of this award ceremony, but at this time, he landed slowly, and it took another good time. After a while, Li He, who had already changed into his military uniform, jumped out of the cab and walked slowly to the rostrum.

He held a sword in his hand, not a laser sword, but a product of the same texture as the battle angel feather sword, a long sword with a simple style.

In 5130, when technology was highly developed, this kind of sword usually only appeared on certain occasions, and its symbolic meaning was far greater than its actual meaning.

Yannick's eyes seemed to be lit up suddenly, and his heart began to beat uncontrollably.

His footsteps are steady and powerful, his back is solid and reliable, and the gorgeous military uniform inlaid with gold trim visually modifies his figure to be more slender. His unique military temperament has attracted everyone's attention from the moment he appeared on the stage.

Li He lowered his eyes and came to Yannick.

Yannick could feel that his eyes and mind were already occupied by this person, and there was no room left.

He saluted him solemnly, and so did Yannick.

The sword suddenly came out of its sheath, and a cold light flashed in the air, and was lifted up to the eyes again, and finally the sword holder stabbed it into the hard ground of the rostrum.

Under Yannick's puzzled eyes, Li He saluted again, took a step back with one foot, knelt down on one knee in front of him, and crossed his hands on the hilt of his sword.

The scene was silent, and some specially invited reporters and experienced spectators were already too excited to contain themselves.

"I, Li He. Willing to be the sword in your hand, willing to be the shield in front of you, support, honesty, bravery, obedience, whatever I have, let you take it. Swear allegiance until death!"

Under the gaze of thousands of eyes, he raised the sword made of the damaged feathers of the Battle Angel above his head, as humble as falling dust.

"Please accept my allegiance."

"It's a ceremony of allegiance..."

Even in 5130, when technology is highly developed, such traditional rituals are still preserved in some places in the Andromeda galaxy-powerful warriors voluntarily express their loyalty to the people they identify, and each warrior usually only Swear the oath once, and rarely will there be a warrior who breaks the oath.

Against the backdrop of the allegiance ceremony, the exquisite medal in his hand suddenly seemed so insignificant.

Yannick's eyes were getting wet gradually, which was something that couldn't be said - I accepted it.

After the conferring ceremony, there was a celebration reception that lasted until midnight.

The officers looked at Yannick who had regained his former spirit from a distance, and one or two curled their lips silently in their hearts.

"I told you a long time ago, the young couple quarreled at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, you see." Isanel disdainfully.

"I've done everything, why are you so hypocritical." Bauer muttered in a low voice.

"That's right. After struggling for a long time every time, I still have to be coaxed back by that sweet-talking face." Kate raised her eyebrows.

"Li He is the most cunning person." Zuo Daofu agreed.

On the other hand, Yannick chatted with the guests until he was able to escape in the middle of the night.

He waved his hand to signal the guards behind him to go away, and knocked on the door of the lounge after dawdling for a while.

He and the black-haired and black-eyed Li He looked at each other for a while, but finally he didn't hold back, and complained in a reproachful tone: "Where did you go some time ago? No matter how hard you look, you can't find it."

"It won't happen in the future." Li He moved closer, looking at the young officer in front of him from a bird's-eye view.

"Hand out."

"what?"

"You just reach out."

Yannick glared at him, and finally stretched out his right hand as if he couldn't twist it.

A metal block was placed in the palm of his hand, and a very familiar miniature mech was engraved in the center of the circle.

"The key of the 'Red Gold Pupil'? How did you get it? Wasn't this thing lost in the battlefield?"

Yannick was surprised.

"On the day when Admiral Valentine will hold a banquet for you, I went to the original site of the battlefield and found him from a pile of old debris after searching for several days. So I didn't go to the banquet in the Thorn galaxy at all that day." He said Sighing reproachfully: "You are a man with twists and turns, sometimes it's really overwhelming."

"Aren't you the same?"

Yannick objected.

"Yeah, so you must keep an eye on me, don't let me have a chance to escape from you."

The rough fingertips slid up his cheeks, so gentle that it was intoxicating.

Their destinies intersected in the abandoned nuclear power plant at dusk, in front of the muddy puddle full of broken oil barrels.Then, in the old warehouse of the machine repair team, in the infirmary of the police station, in the abandoned satellite outpost, in the office cabin of the "Mousse" spacecraft, in the pilothouse of the "Bibyl", in the dead of night in the interstellar In the newsletter...

Compared with the irritable Yannick, his temperament is almost calm and restrained.

But in addition to being different, they have too many similarities.

Serious and pragmatic, loyal to duty, keeping promises...

"I remember."

Yannick said uncomfortably, letting him spray his breath on his face.

"Are you ready to return to New Hope?"

"No. This is the last time I will protect her. It is considered to repay her for nurturing me for the first 15 years. For the remaining years, I will stay in m133 and repay this asteroid for recreating me. I will Fulfill my promise, turn it into a dazzling star in the Andromeda galaxy, I will not break my vow."

"Then I too..."

He finally kissed his lips, and entered the deepest part of each other's hearts under the bright starlight.
