Alien Legends - Chapter 4 Soldier Govi
Author/Baltic
The images of the vast universe, the spaceships sailing through the universe, the swarms of meteorites coming down on their faces, the spaceships crashing down into the deserts until they exploded and disintegrated, captivated both Lal and the General.
This is an image that both of them have never seen before, Lal's face showed two blushes, he stared at Richard with a face of infatuation, as if Richard is a beautiful woman with endless secrets to explore.
The general glanced at Ral, who then reigned it in a bit. But there seemed to be something eerily exchanged between the general and Lal's eyes.
"Richard, you can take off your helmet now!" The General said.
The General's face became very kind and he poured Richard a glass of water.
"Richard, what's your next step?"
Richard took the glass of water and said, "General, I need the communication device, I want to get in touch with the Earth headquarters."
The General exchanged eye contact with Ral for a second, then nodded and said, "There are no communication devices here, you need to go to the World Government where you can contact Earth directly!"
"The World Government?"
A picture of a thriving metropolis emerged in Richard's mind, vaguely excited.
It seems that the technology of this planet is much more advanced than Richard thought, and it is even possible to directly contact Earth, that saves him a lot of things.
The General explained, "Yes, the World Government, which is our Metropolis, just happens to have a soldier who will be sent there, you can go with him, he is responsible for protecting you."
Richard couldn't help but speculate that the fact that this military base was in the middle of nowhere and could be transferred to a position in Metropolis was proof that this soldier had performed very well.
At this moment, a captain entered the general's office with a soldier.
"Good day, General!" The captain and the soldier saluted together, both with serious expressions. Just that the young soldier's gaze subconsciously fell on Richard, and it so happened that Richard was also sizing him up.
Probably because the two men were of similar age, the contact in the gaze alone made them both feel that the other was more agreeable.
"Captain, this is Richard, the guest from Earth, and I hope you have chosen a good soldier to keep him safe."
Richard waved his hand and smiled, "Greetings to you all!"
The soldier and the captain looked at each other and did not respond to Richard, it is obvious that the two of them are very unfamiliar with this way of greeting Richard.
The Captain took a step forward and said, "General, this is Soldier Govi, we chose him to serve in the Metropolis, his performance in the army is outstanding, he has the qualifications!"
"Hmm." The general nodded and looked Govi up and down, looking more than satisfied.
"Then you guys go down and get ready to leave, make sure you don't delay on the way, pay attention to safety." The general gave the order, his expression suddenly became very serious.
"Yes, General." Govi gave a military salute.
Soldier Govi and Richard left the general's room one after the other, entered the elevator, exited the pyramid building, and came to an open space in the base. Along the way, Govi did not communicate with Richard, his expression was stiff, like a cyborg.
Richard was about to find a reason to communicate, but suddenly saw the "human" Caporal, holding the piece of meat in his hand, walking towards the outside of the base.
At that moment, Govi looked at his watch, tightened his grip on his rifle, and stood at attention, staring straight ahead, as if waiting for something.
And the soldiers around the training also seems to get a hint, all stopped training, serious expression, all stand upright, look up at the sky somewhere, quietly waiting, a moment, the whole base fell into silence.
Suddenly, almost at the same time, all the people are hissing, the whole military base over the echo of four words: "Masashree, Masashree, Masashree ......"
Soldier Govi, at this time, also hissed fervently. expression of pious fervor, and the whole scene resembled a religious ceremony.
It was a sight Richard had never seen before, and he was curious. The words "Masashari" were not translated into Richard's species language translator, which analyzed them as being unique to this planet.
After a minute had passed, the "ceremony was over" and the soldiers resumed their training, with only Kabola still walking towards the base gates. Suddenly Caporal's face became extremely ugly, his body convulsed, and the piece of meat fell to the ground, and in a short while Caporal collapsed on the ground, covering his head, foaming at the mouth, and rolling around in agony.
A couple of soldiers noticed the anomaly and rushed over to give it a thumping with their rifle butts, shouting, "Damn the Fallen!"
"The Fallen?" Richard was baffled, not sure what it meant.
After Caporal was subdued by the soldiers, his entire body curled up on the ground, his body twitching. His body appeared to change, his hair all over his body slowly turned from black to white, and his hands and feet slowly thinned.
Suddenly, Kabola's entire body shifted into a white beast that looked like some kind of canine, only several times larger than a normal dog. It plopped down on the ground, holding onto the piece of fresh meat that had fallen to the ground with a deadly grip. The soldiers dragged the deformed capoeira away like a dead dog.
The unimaginable scene of devotional rituals, inexplicable slogans, and the deformation of a "non-human" capoeira, left Richard dumbfounded.
Soldier Govey, contemptuous curse: "abominable degenerate", the face of the frenzy disappeared, the color returned to indifference. Richard breathed a sigh of relief, do not know why, just now this bizarre scene, let him have a feeling of breathlessness.
More than a dozen soldiers came over and saluted Govey, who they obviously had great respect for. Richard guessed that Govi must be one of the best of them if he could transfer to Metropolis.
Govi directs the group of soldiers onto two military trucks.
With a small group of men dedicated to escorting himself, Richard guessed that the dangers the general had spoken of might actually exist, he just didn't know exactly what said dangers were - planetary beasts? Or is it the invaders? Or is it the Fallen?
This mysterious planet is getting more and more interesting.
......
On the desolate Gobi Beach, a crushed road extends into the distance, and the military truck is smoking black smoke, bumpy all the way, the truck does not have a shock absorbing system at all, and if you do not have a firm grip on it, you don't know if you will be flying out of the truck in the next second.
Richard this is very incomprehensible, this planet has something developed technology, but why are still using such backward transportation?
Richard and Govi sat face to face in the carriage. Along the way, Richard has been observing the scenery outside the car, the field of vision in addition to the Gobi Beach is a bare mound, not a bit of green.
Govey's expression was cold, he observed Richard for a while, and realized that this human from an alien planet looked exactly like them. The trip was long, and Govey was not interested in continuing to observe Richard, he pulled out a photo and looked at it for a while, a smile flashed across his face.
Richard suddenly saw a tall tower on a distant hill, at the base of which were three thick iron pillars that supported a huge orb. The appearance looked very simple, Richard could not see what the tower was for, he took a closer look, on the hill in front of him, a similar round iron tower appeared, very much like a beacon, stretching on and on.
"What is this tower for?" Richard asked Govi.
Govi put the photo in his jacket pocket, swept a glance out of the car, and said indifferently, "It's defense equipment, capable of defending against missiles."
Such a simple and rough thing, but it is used to defend missiles, can it be defended? Govi explained so, Richard could not help but laugh out loud.
Govey was a little annoyed, and his tone was tinged with gunpowder: "What are you laughing at?"
Richard shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Nothing, just thought it was funny, haven't seen it before."
It has to be said, Richard's smile is very charming, can charm the death of the Earth's mother planet and Eden colony planet countless young women and girls, on the stereotypical Govey is equally effective, Govey fire dissipated.
Govi felt that his explanation just now was not very clear, so he took out a pen and paper and drew a diagram on it.
On the paper is a drawing of a pylon put together with a few simple lines, and Govi explains, "This is a defense tower, and when the missiles attack, it will be here to intercept the missiles and protect us from the attack!"
With that, Govi drew another missile-like object in the blank space on the paper.
The smirk on Richard's face intensified as he snickered, "Why did you build this, is someone going to attack you?"
As soon as he said this, the expression on Govi's face became very grim, and his tone was a bit heavy: "It's the Fallen, to prevent the Fallen from attacking!"
"The Fallen ......" This is the second time Richard has heard this title. He asked with great curiosity, "Are they monsters? Or are they invaders? Why are they attacking you!"
A deep disgust appeared on Govi's face, it seemed that for the Fallen, Govi was disgusted.
"They are invaders, they are very evil, they are the root of evil, they do nothing but destroy!"
Govi's hands couldn't help but clench into fists, Richard could tell that Govi was angry now, and couldn't wait to tear those so-called fallen ones apart.
Richard did not speak again, he wanted to say something comforting, but did not know what to say, the atmosphere inside the carriage was a bit heavy.
"You're smart." Half a minute later, Govey gave Richard a deep look and ventured out this sentence.
Richard was a bit surprised.
Govi said, "You are very receptive, you can understand everything I say to you, so I think you are very smart!"
"Thanks." Well, Richard felt that the people of this planet had a different way of thinking from his own, but of course he wouldn't refuse a compliment from someone else.
"What's the metropolis like? Is it very prosperous?" The atmosphere eased up, and Govi was willing to speak, so Richard then began to find a topic of conversation as well, there was nothing wrong with learning more about the planet. Attacked
