I Am the Swarm

A middle-aged and elderly Rickon was lying on a deck chair on the beach. A fisherman's hat of a certain color covered his weather-beaten face and also helped him block the light of the stars.

He probably stayed here for a long time, and the light blue skin of the Rickon tribe had been tanned blue-brown.

There was a slight sound of the engine, and the middle-aged and elderly Riken slightly lifted the brim of his hat, just in time to see two gunboats flying overhead. He was a little puzzled, this is not the place where those military gunboats should come, what happened?

Then he laughed at himself, it's none of his business, he has been retired for a long time, what happened during his term of office made him mentally and mentally exhausted after leaving office, he took the initiative to resign from other positions, and lived a life of wandering wild cranes.

He has not paid attention to the outside world for a long time, and has no idea what happened recently. Of course he thinks this is very good, he has changed from a tall man to a short man, so why worry about it, isn't it good to bask in the sun?

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps. Rickon, who came here to the beach, was either barefoot or wearing shoe soles, and it was difficult for him to step on such heavy footsteps.

The voice was getting closer and closer to him. There were few people here, and there was only Rickon in this direction. Combined with the military gunboat he saw just now, he had a bad feeling in his heart.

The footsteps stopped beside him.

"Sure enough." Although his eyes were covered by the hat, he already understood that the other party was coming for him.

He lifted his hat, sat up, and looked at the three fully armed Riken soldiers standing next to him. A wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he laughed at himself, "How long has it been? What happened? Antonio also supported Can't stop, do you need the old man to go out?"

"Lord Delrin, please." Among the three Riken soldiers, the officer and soldier in the lead did not answer Delrin's question, but just shook his head and made a gesture of please.

Delrin sighed and didn't ask any more questions. Since this kind of soldier doesn't want to answer, it's useless to ask. Anyway, he will know when he gets there.

He got up, patted the sand on his body, adjusted his clothes, put on his fisherman hat, nodded towards the leading officer, and followed them towards the position of the gunboat.

That's right, this middle-aged and elderly Rickon is the previous Speaker, Your Excellency Delrin. He has already realized his destiny, so he is very calm.

After he resigned from office, he resigned from his position. Although he had saved a little in those years when he was the speaker, the life of Leisurely Cloud and Wild Crane is also expensive, and it has been spent for decades.

When he was destitute, the newly appointed Antonio found him and gave him a lucrative job with a good salary, with two vacations a year and one vacation for half a year.

With this job, he was able to save the life of idle clouds and wild cranes. But he understands that there is no love without a reason in the world, and Antonio's help is not out of some emotion towards his predecessor, but to buy a card.

Both parties are elites who have sat at the pinnacle of power. Although they haven't said anything, everything is in the air. Therefore, he can take this job and salary with peace of mind.

And now, it's clearly time for his card to come into play.

Antonio made a nationally televised speech, acknowledging that what was reported in the data had indeed happened, and announced a three-day mourning day for the Trimblem district who was innocently implicated in the death.

That incident caused the deaths of millions of Rikens, which can be regarded as appalling. In contrast, the Rikens and the swarm have been confronting each other for decades, and the dead Rikens accounted for less than 20% of this incident.

But after saying this, he changed the subject and shifted all the responsibility to the former parliament. At the same time, he said that this information was hidden before. Not only did he not know it at all, but also after the information was exposed on the Internet, Only found out after self-examination.

What is inside and outside the words, the responsibility is completely pushed away.

At the same time, the original direct responsible person was pushed out. One of the direct responsible person, General Monroe, was beaten in the first round during the second defense of Lazer Star and escaped from Lazer Star. Among the dozens of warships that exploded, there was his car. The battleship was smashed into pieces on the spot, and his whereabouts are unknown, so there is a high probability that he has already received a lunch box.

The one remaining with the highest status is the former speaker of Delrin. Although the furious crowd wanted to hang him on the spot, according to the procedure, he will accept a fair trial to determine his fate.

Of course, the trial process is open to the public.

Although this show calmed down some of the public's anger a little bit, and allowed Antonio to get out of the quagmire temporarily by luck, but the next thing is the key.

Because some other information was released again.

In the conflict with the Zerg, the Rickon only won the first battle to defend Lazer Star. Although it was analyzed afterwards that the victory was actually deliberately done by the Zerg, and the Zerg also achieved their own strategic goals, so there are different opinions about who won this war.

But it is obviously impossible for the Ricken army to give up this only victory, because there is no other commendable record to publicize.

Now even the last layer of cover is exposed. Fortunately, this war is controversial. As long as the skin is thick enough to claim victory, it is not easy to refute it.

However, in the past, it was possible to repeatedly publicize this victory alone, and then downplay other losses. For example, because the supply route of Lazer Star was too long and the cost was too high, in order to save losses and use military expenditures rationally, it had to voluntarily give up.

For example, Izumo star is not suitable for building a defense system. Even if a weak defense is established, it is a waste of resources and irresponsible for the lives of soldiers, so after comprehensive consideration, I voluntarily gave up.

When promoting the only victory, they will also vigorously promote and advocate the civil and military dual-star defense system. Dozens of explanatory videos of various documentary types have been filmed. The huge steel defense line makes Riken people proud.

If the swarm was a regular opponent, the effect of this steel line of defense should be as advertised, keeping enemies hundreds of millions of kilometers away. It's a pity that although the Rickon tribe has the reverse thrust technology of ancient spaceships, which can be called a template for the protagonist, but Luo Wen is a coward.

The insect swarm's deployment of troops out of the cloud star was not blocked by the steel defense line, but was silently mobilizing troops...

Although the Rikens already knew about these things before, they didn't have detailed data. However, in the documents released by the opposition, all the relevant data are displayed, together with the explanatory video, it is not afraid that the Rikens will not be able to understand the meaning of these numbers.

Indeed, the Rikens understood.

The brain, which was still burning with anger due to the meteorite impact, seemed to have been poured with a basin of cold water, and the bone-chilling coldness enveloped the heart, and the fear spread from the defense line of the civil and military dual stars to the home planet of Riken.

If there is an evil god in the fantasy world who uses the absorption of negative emotions as a source of power, they might be able to jump up several levels at once. Fortunately, there are no such things in this world.
