"Send the 5th, 30th, and 31st fleets to Harvest Star immediately for support."

"yes."

After giving this order, William asked again: "Can I contact Harvest Star now?"

Serena shook her head lightly and said, "No, all means of communication have failed."

"Mad..." William cursed under his breath.

Then he got up and left the office chair, opened the door, came to the living room, and raised his voice and said:

"Everyone, cancel the planned dinner today, because we have a war to fight."

? !

Originally, the living room was full of people talking and laughing, but they were taken aback when they heard William's words.

"Boy, war? Who was the war with?" Andre was the first to speak.

"An alien alliance with the technology and ability to build a large number of warships, and a population much larger than ours," William said in a deep voice.

Now.

Time: September 21, 10:59.

Location: 0.5 ETM from the surface of Harvest Star.

The only Paris-class frigate on Harvest Star, the Observer is anchored here, preparing to stop the Covenant warships that are heading towards Harvest Star at full speed.

Inside the hangar.

The ground crew used engineering power armor, forklifts, and transport vehicles to load ammunition for Viking fighters, F-X Kai, and Assault MS.

And the only two raiders of the frigate, one is installing an air combat backpack, ready to assist Viking fighters and F-X modifications, and deal with the carrier-based aircraft of the Covenant.

The other one is being installed with gun armament, ready to assist the Observer in launching firepower strikes against the Covenant warships.

deck.

All the marines and hell paratroopers also use the mechanical skeletons equipped by individual soldiers to assist the ground crew to carry weapons and ammunition.

The Astartes led by Gabriel were checking their weapons and power armor, preparing for the best combat conditions.

The power armors of the thirty Blood Ravens were all made of ceramic titanium armor, and even Captain Gabriel did not have Terminator power armor.

After all, the Terminator Power Armor was expensive, and it was only equipped with three Astartes legions. The Astartes of the colonial garrison had no right to equip the Terminator.

Fortunately, the number of Astartes on Harvest Star has reached 30, and Serena has also equipped two Falcons for the Observer. Otherwise, all the ground troops of Harvest Star may not be able to be used.

"Beep! Beep!"

Suddenly, red lights flashed in the hangar, and there was a harsh reminder.

Seeing this, Gabriel didn't talk nonsense, but waved his hand and said loudly:

"Brothers! It's time to make contributions and protect human beings!

Let other brothers and cousins ​​see that we Blood Crows are not only fond of knowledge, we are also top-notch in combat! "

"Yes! Sergeant!"

"Woo!!"

"Kill those alien heretics!"

What responded to Gabriel was the metallic battle cry of all the blood crows.

The battle cry resounded throughout the hangar, even covering up the piercing reminder bell.

And everyone in the hangar was also infected by the battle cries of the blood crows, no longer so confused and fearful, but full of fighting spirit.

"Set off!"

After shouting, Gabriel took fourteen Blood Ravens and boarded a Falcon located in the middle of the deck.

The other fifteen Blood Ravens also followed Gabriel and boarded another Falcon.

At the same time, the pilots and drivers of the fighter planes and mobile suits also entered their respective fighter planes and mobile suits with the assistance of the ground staff.

Now, it is only waiting for Macha, the captain, to give the order.

In less than ten seconds.

On the communication channel with the battleship as the signal base station, an order from Macha came:

"All combat-type carrier-based aircraft and mobile suits are dispatched immediately, ready to work together with this ship to attract the opponent's firepower, and create opportunities for the sergeant to join forces.

Also, please ask all the paratroopers to enter their respective airborne pods, and the marines to enter the Pelican to stand by and prepare for any possible situation.

On September 21, 2026, Atlantic time, at 1103 hours, the garrison forces on Harvest Star officially fought against the alien forces.

attack! "

As Macha's voice fell, the ground crew in the hangar also put on their breathing masks.

Immediately afterwards.

The bright lights in the hangar turn to dark red and decompression takes place.

Decompression complete.

The two air valves at the bottom of the hangar opened, and the mechanical arm installed on the top of the hangar first picked up and transported two mobile suits for release.

The Viking fighter jets and F-X variants also started their hydrogen engines. Under the guidance of the ground crew holding light sticks, they followed the two assault mobile suits and left the hangar.

Finally, there is the Falcon carrying thirty Blood Ravens.

When all the carrier-based aircraft that need to be dispatched leave the hangar, the air valve at the bottom of the hangar is also quickly closed and pressurized.

outside the ship.

View from the rear of the Observer.

It can be seen that after the gun-mounted assault mobile suit flew out of the hangar, it came straight to the top of the hull, and was attracted to the top of the hull by magnetic force.

The air-mounted assault MS, ten Viking fighters, and six F-X Kai flew in parallel on the left side of the Observer.

As for the Falcon carrying the Blood Raven, it was behind the formation of the carrier-based aircraft, waiting for the opportunity to perform a gang battle.

Ahead of the Observer...

You can see three Star Alliance CCS-class cruisers that are nearly two kilometers long, rounded in exterior, and painted in a silvery purple color.

In front of the three Covenant cruisers, the Observer, which was only one, looked even weaker and might be destroyed by the other party at any time.

And the three cruisers had no intention of stopping at all, and headed straight for the Harvest Star, not caring about the Observer blocking the route.

The Sangheili commander who led the three cruisers was the alien who sent a video warning to the Observer before.

It seems that the commander didn't pay attention to the human troops at all.

Had William seen that video of the Sangheili, he would have called it 'elite'.

The Sangheili are called elites by humans in "Halo". As the name suggests, their combat capabilities, weapons and equipment represent the top existence of the Star Alliance.

Without using weapons and power armor, just fighting with bare hands, a young elite can torture more than a dozen human soldiers, or several elite Hell Paratroopers.

During the Human-Covenant War in Halo, the majority of human casualties came from the Sangheili, so they were called the Elite.

Just then.

A cruiser on the left side of the Covenant fleet suddenly took the lead in firing at the Observer, firing several plasma cannonballs emitting purple light.

However, this slow-firing plasma cannon was easily dodged by the highly maneuverable Observer, and a blue energy-storage light appeared on the bow of the Observer.

Phew~——!

Hum~——!

The 30 tons of tungsten projectiles from the electromagnetic accelerator shot out immediately and hit the opponent's cruiser's energy shield, but failed to penetrate the opponent's light pink energy shield.

call out-!

Hum~!

Simultaneously, the artillery assault mobile suit standing on the Observer was also manipulating a large-caliber Gauss cannon, and fired at the hit cruiser.

But the Gauss cannon's large-caliber spike bomb still failed to penetrate the opponent's shield.

So far, Harvest Star's only combat power is officially at war with the three CCS-class cruiser fleets of the Star Alliance.
