Chapter 236 "Ah!! Cuobala (Looking for Death)!"
Inside the bridge of the CCS-class battlecruiser;
"Captain! That group of unknown militants has captured the air valve cabin and is currently attacking the bridge!"
"Wait, Captain! Captain Garol is actually guiding them!"
In the bridge, the elites' reports in their native language could be heard.
The golden-armored captain had already left his exclusive seat and stood next to the center console, watching the surveillance video with an extremely solemn expression.
I saw Riemann, four thunder warriors with undiminished combat power and sound limbs, and a red-armored elite who had no choice but to act as a guide, using the gravity elevator to enter the interior of the CCS class.
Since more than 90% of the combat troops have been dispatched to the ground, the internal defense force of the flagship at this moment is extremely weak, but this is not the point.
The point is, they clearly have an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, but the combat capabilities and physical fitness displayed by those giants are far superior to their elites and the Jiralhanae beasts with no glory to speak of. They only paid half of the casualties and defeated the enemy. The entire battalion is responsible for the defensive front.
"Ouch"
The golden-armored captain let out a low roar.
It stared at Riemann on the holographic screen, and the red-armored elite walking in front of Riemann, or rather, a fellow member named Garol, thoughtfully.
After all, it has commanded this Covenant fleet for more than six Earth years and promoted many of its own race. Garol is also one of the juniors it focuses on training, preparing to develop into a captain who can lead an army alone in combat.
The military rank system of the Covenant is similar to that of Earth's feudal era.
For example, the blue-armored elites who command combat teams are usually impulsive young warriors who have just left the Sangheili home planet and have little actual combat experience. They have the military rank of "corps leader."
Garol, who was leading the way for Riemann and others, was a senior corps leader, so the red paint of the power armor was a little dull.
As for it, it is equivalent to the "general" of the general level.
However, it is sometimes called the "Supreme Commander" by the Grunts and Jackals, because in the eyes of that group of races, it has absolute say in this fleet.
Except for the Jiralhanae Association's response to Fengyang's defiance, all "people" need to obey its command and dispatch.
So the golden-armored captain knows every junior member of the same race whom he has personally promoted, and Garol is actually willing to guide Riemann in the right direction?
This shows that Riemann has successfully convinced Garol through his martial arts skills.
"interesting."
The golden-armored captain couldn't help but murmur to himself, and his eyes even revealed "fiery"? ?
It seems that, as a fighting race, it seems to hope to fight Riemann.
So after a brief silence, the golden-armored captain ordered: "Inform the guards to follow me to the connection area, and the remaining personnel will stay on the bridge. By the way, send a few more combat teams to the engine room to protect Engineer Harak."
"Yes, Captain."
After giving all the instructions, the golden-armored captain turned and walked out of the bridge.
Swish——!
As the automatic sensor door opened and closed, the "Supreme Commander", who was much stronger and thirty centimeters taller than ordinary elites, left the bridge.
At the same time, the twenty elite guards waiting outside walked slowly towards the connecting area not far away and with a relatively spacious space.
Moreover, the physiques and heights of these twenty guards are also among the best among the elite.
They are equipped with more advanced power armor, painted in bright orange that is close to gold, and hold spear-like power spears.
Its spear blade and tip emit a light blue energy blade and a subtle "buzzing" sound.
It is said to be a "blade of light", but it is essentially an extremely high-temperature, extremely high-energy plasma bound by a magnetic field.
Atlas also has corresponding technology, but it cannot be miniaturized or individualized for the time being. It is currently only used in the "Titan" project of giant mecha weapons.
After a while.
The golden-armored captain led his personal guard to the connecting area with several deck corridors connecting different areas.
The bulkhead here is painted with a layer of light purple paint and is almost the size of six basketball courts.
They waited patiently for a moment.
Swish——!
Soon, one of the sensor doors opened.
Boom, boom!
The heavy footsteps made by the mithril power armor and the magnetic boots of the titanium tank echoed in the connection area.
At this time, Riemann, four Thunder Warriors, and "Guide" Garol appeared in front of the golden-armored captain and the elite guards.
"Waiting for us? Okay, okay, it will save us a lot of time."
Riemann still joked casually, then looked down at Garol and said:
"Man, go and explain the reason to your commander."
"Ouch"
Garol sighed helplessly, broke away from the team, came to the center of the connection area, and explained in their native Sangheili language:
"Commander, hey! Please forgive me for leading the way."
"Who are they?" the golden-armored captain asked bluntly, without worrying too much about why Garol did what he did.
"I don't know either. They flashed directly into the woods through the miraculous transmission system.
After that, they only launched lethal attacks against the Jiralhanae, but showed mercy to our fellow humans. Otherwise, I would not appear in front of you.
also"
Garol reported everything he saw to the golden armored captain.
However, observing from Riemann's perspective, he only heard the tones of "Ouch?", "Ouch", "Ouch!"
After several minutes.
Garol said in a deep voice: "Commander, I think they have already known some of our information and intelligence before they officially contacted us.
And they also know what kind of scum the Jiralhanae are, so they chose to kill them without mercy, but they took good care of us Sangheili."
"Well," the golden-armored captain nodded lightly, "It seems that they should have something to ask of us, or
hope to form an alliance with us, but!"
As the golden-armored captain spoke, he held two hilt-shaped objects in his hands, and then swung them left and right-
Buzz~! Buzz!
Two plasma blades emitting dazzling blue light instantly extended from the hilts and condensed into shape.
The golden-armored captain looked directly at Riemann, who was wearing a helmet and whose eye monitor was emitting red light, and said in a heavier tone:
"But, I need to personally verify whether they are worthy of making friends with our Sangheili clan."
"."
Hearing this, Garol sensibly withdrew to the side.
Seeing this, Riemann also understood that the captain in gold armor was ready to fight him in a duel.
His courage was commendable.
He walked forward slowly in silence, and imitated the actions of the captain in gold armor. After pulling out the sword of winter with his right hand, he swung it violently.
Pah!
Bright blue psychic lightning danced on the blade that flashed with cold light.
Then, Riemann raised his left hand and waved it towards the captain in gold armor, making a provocative gesture.
"Ah! Cuobala (looking for death)!"
The captain in gold armor naturally understood the intention of the gesture, and immediately took a step and rushed towards Riemann.
