Chapter 587 The Black Curtain Wall Moving Forward

An old-style tape recorder-like player was on the table. Two discs in it were slowly moving, playing an ethereal and distant song. This was a song created when humans first entered space in the Fourth Era. The female voice in the song was particularly empty, as if people could see the people who followed the fleet into the vast universe to explore in that era. Most of them would spend their entire lives on the spacecraft, and then wait until their grandchildren's grandchildren were born before the fleet arrived at the target location. Boarding the ship meant saying goodbye to all relatives and friends on Earth forever.

In a corner of the room, the sound of water came from the shower room. After taking a shower, Tilan shook her hair slightly and looked at herself in the mirror. Although her appearance and height had not changed for several years, her temperament was indeed different.

Her eyes were still clear, but compared to the timid purity in the past, now there was more diamond-like calmness. In addition, Tilan looked down and pinched her thigh. It seemed that she had a little more meat than before and was not so thin.

Recalling the past, Tilan tied her long hair into a large high ponytail, then picked up the soft black hairband on the table, tied it into a bow, and adjusted the symmetry behind her head. After doing this, she put on a bathrobe and walked out.

Taking off her slippers, Tilan knelt on the bed. The room was not lit. This was a very high building, and she could look out through the blue floor-to-ceiling windows at the neon night scene outside.

Closing her eyes, the girl continued to listen to the particularly old and nostalgic songs on the player, imagining the insignificance and loneliness that humans felt in space at that time. After a long time, when the player stopped turning, she slowly opened her eyes.

She originally thought that after graduating from college, she would have nearly ten years to travel around the Federation, constantly travel and study, slowly accumulate experience and experience, and then gradually expand her influence to slowly change the people and things around her.

However, reality does not seem to give her so much time. Now the situation in the Federation changes three times a day. Even if she wants to live quietly, the people around her are full of anxiety. She has already sensed this emotion.

Blanche, Orles, Shui Yanqing, Audney... Tilan recalled these familiar names, and the familiar scenes of the past emerged, and then disappeared.

It seems that everyone can't go back to the simple and carefree life in the past.

There is no sadness, just some emotion. The train of time moves forward ruthlessly, and everyone inevitably changes.

...

After Blanche delivered a speech on May 25, the flames of resistance spread like ignited alcohol in the blink of an eye. As of June 10, about 23 star regions in the western star region had power seizure movements, and the independence faction supporting Blanche and the conservative faction maintaining the unity of the federation fought each other.

The streets were full of galloping main battle tanks, the star ports of various star regions were closed, and the patrol fleet descended on the sky above the inhabited planet to deter and suppress the resistance forces. Even so, fighting still occurred in various places.

The sharp-nosed shark star region is a bridgehead star region close to the central part of the western star region. The economy is relatively good, so there are more people supporting the conservatives.

On June 12, 12 super-light-speed fighters raided the space station where the governor of the star region was located. The conservative governor who had been suppressing the situation with an iron fist died on the spot in the explosion of the space station. The next day, the situation in the star region began to get out of control, and the two sides fought fiercely in various areas of the inhabited planet.

In the East 2 area, blue smoke suddenly appeared above the streets that were originally crowded with people. Then, isolated projection isolation belts were urgently raised on the main street. These isolation belts appeared with bright red warning words and yellow and black backgrounds. Then, tanks about ten meters high drove to the scene at lightning speed.

"Now declare that all members of the 'Holy Blue

Cross Sect' are illegal armed elements. All riot control units and military and police personnel are given the authority to open fire on them." "Any member of this faction who is seen can report to the authorities and be rewarded--" The floating self-discipline unit broadcasting above the street had not finished speaking before it stopped abruptly with the explosion of blue flames.

"How boring! Now we are the official ones." A figure who looked very young, like a teenager, walked out of the smoke and dust, with a blue flame still on his hand.

The reason why he looked like a teenager was because his strength of Tide Sequence 7 was not something that a 16- or 17-year-old could possess.

"Keep a low profile, Aix. You haven't won yet, hehe." Another tall and mature woman also walked out of the smoke and dust and stood next to the blond boy. She wore black-framed glasses and a professional suit. If it weren't for the chaos around her, she would probably be mistaken for a senior secretary of a company.

"Humph." The boy dodged the teammate who wanted to put his hand on his shoulder, and then rushed into the sky again, sweeping away more than a dozen riot control self-discipline units that were swooping down from the sky and turning them into scrap iron burning with blue flames.

Some of these burnt debris crashed into the building next to it, some fell to the ground, melting the metal guardrails on the side of the street and turning them into dark red molten iron, and some of the debris splashed on the shop signs on the street, bringing bursts of piercing and burning green smoke.

The flames that seemed to be waving afterwards made the solid alloy melt like mud and evaporate on the spot, and a pungent smell was emitted in the air.

Passers-by and tourists on both sides of the street saw this fierce battle scene, and countless screams rang out. There were sounds of running everywhere. Some people were not afraid of death and held up their personal terminals to record this scene.

Just as the smoke was curling around the main street, the huge main battle tank took advantage of the magnetic structure of the main street ground and moved quickly. The heavy and huge body just passed through the street, and the vibration and wind pressure brought by it were terrifying.

It passed through the winding route at a very high speed until it arrived at the intersection in front of the street where the riot occurred. Then four main battle tanks lined up in a row, and the double-barreled turrets that were originally facing forward began to turn.

[Meteor-V 1481 finds target, starts locking...]

[Pipeline starts preheating, select mode: Huiqiao mode β level]

More than 800 meters away, the dual-track gun barrel on the tank begins to gather golden-red particles and spread along the barrel, and the array inside it gradually lights up.

[Quadrant aiming starts, starts aiming and locking...]

[Locked successfully, fire!]

In an instant, a blazing golden-red jet crosses the street. At this moment, the sun in the sky dims a little, causing passers-by on the street to cover their eyes in panic to avoid being blinded.

After a few seconds, the golden-red jet dissipated. The place where the two people were standing was like the surface hit by a meteorite. The dark red molten magma slowly flowed, and the surrounding area was a huge burnt hole. Hundreds of meters behind the two people, there was a large dumbbell-shaped hole in the middle of the original building. Some people ran out of the building crying. Soon the building slowly fell down and hit another high-rise building next to it. The sky above the street was also covered, forming a huge artificial shadow.

"Are those two people dead?" some passers-by asked anxiously and cautiously.

"Look up in the sky, there!" Following someone's surprised instructions, many people turned their eyes to the sky above the street. There were two people standing in the air, who were the targets just now.

Although the two were not missing any limbs, they looked a little embarrassed. At least the corner of the boy with blond hair and blue jacket was burnt, and the woman next to him also had a lot of gray and black on her body.

"Tsk tsk, I feel like I'm already very unkind, but I didn't expect that Councillor Hook on the other side is even more ruthless, actually directly requisitioning military tanks to open fire on the street." The woman took off her glasses, wiped them carefully, and then complained.

"Stop talking nonsense, it's happening again." The boy on the side pulled the woman out of the way, and then the blazing golden-red jet passed through the two of them again.

"You just stand there and let people hit you? Aix." The woman complained, and then opened her hands, and the blue barrier opened up like a spider web, blocking the entire street.

"Heh." The boy did not answer, but a blazing blue symbol flashed in his eyes, and then he raised his hand and aimed at the tank in the distance.

A blue fireball appeared in front of him, and the flames in it kept rolling and rotating, and gradually expanded step by step. The intense heat spread, and the flowers and plants on the road began to emit green smoke. The high temperature of the street caused the air near the ground to twist and shake because of the heat absorption. The people who originally wanted to watch saw this scene, and they still ran away desperately, away from this terrifying fireball.

As the blue fireball continued to expand, it slowly rose in the city like a sun. The heat waves were almost visible to the naked eye. The materials blown by it dried up instantly, burned in the air, and turned into black ash.

At this time, the four tanks on the opposite side fired again, but were intercepted and blocked by the barrier set up by the woman, which caused hot sparks to splash. The splashing jets penetrated and eroded the surrounding buildings, and the buildings on both sides also slowly fell down.

"Hurry up!" The woman urged.

"Got it, hum." The boy urged the expanding fireball, which bloomed in the sky. The high temperature heat in it turned into a blue hot flow similar to the tank turret, sweeping across the street, piercing and detonating four tanks weighing thousands of tons.

"Let's go." Then the two flew across the street and rushed to the core area of ​​East District 2.

Such scenes are still happening in various places in East District 2. Fully armed soldiers stand in a row with guns, aiming at the approaching "Saint Blue Cross Faction" personnel and firing continuously. Some of them are shot dead on the spot, but many of them rush directly into the soldiers, and then the flames burst out, and many soldiers are burned to death on the spot.

Because of their full support for the singer Blanche, the "Saint Blue Cross Faction" is now wanted in various areas of the West. In this critical moment, the military and police received orders to immediately shoot and kill anyone they meet.

There is no arrest and trial process anymore. Now the various star regions in the West are in a real civil war, but it is still limited to the ground and has not spread to space.

"Has the support not arrived yet? We can't hold on any longer!" The streets near the core area, the originally blocked blocks are charred, and there are chariots and autonomous units burned into scrap metal everywhere. There are also many dead soldiers lying on the ground, and the enemies they face are only 21 Sequence 6 elites of the "Saint Blue Cross Faction".

The elites of these factions also wore white exoskeleton armor, blue analytical goggles, and held top-notch guns and lightsabers. Their equipment was no less than that of the military, and because of their high sequence level, they cooperated well with each other and defeated the blockade forces that were several times larger.

The military and police soldiers wearing dark gold exoskeleton armor kept retreating. The leading officer had only one arm left. At this time, he held up the communicator and kept asking for help, his expression excited.

"You bunch of traitors!" He gritted his teeth and cursed, then took out his only remaining pistol and fired.

"Where are the military mechas!? Why haven't they appeared yet! Are they just watching?" As a military police, although there is a word "military" in the name, it is still a police agency after all, and its equipment strength is limited, not as good as the formal military forces.

Unfortunately, the military forces stationed in the Shark Star Region are also facing a fierce internal power transfer, and have no time to care about other things.

"So, at this time, only we can help the senator of East District 2." High in the sky, the brown-haired woman in the shuttle bit the tobacco and overlooked the corrupt battlefield below.

"This is a big deal." She saw the members of the 'Saint Blue Cross Faction' constantly moving and fighting on the ground, and the one-sided goggles on one side kept analyzing the opponent's strength and data.

"That's it, start working!" She pulled off the one-sided goggles on the side of her ear, and then jumped directly from the hatch of the shuttle.

The heavy black steel hit the ground, blowing up the magnetic floor of the street and shattering it. Then a burly figure about two meters tall walked out of it. She was covered with extremely solid and thick heavy armor. She held a square giant shield of the same height in one hand and a heavy machine gun in the other. When she stood in the middle of the street, she was like a black city gate. The golden and red enchanted bullets shot from the gun swept across the battlefield like a storm, forcing many members of the 'Saint Blue Cross Faction' who were originally chasing the scattered soldiers to temporarily hide and find cover.

As she turned her head and searched for the next target with the hot barrel in her hand, a heavy sniper bullet came from a distance and hit her helmet directly, like a big bell hitting, causing the spread of sound waves. However, even such a powerful bullet still did not penetrate her heavy armor, but only left a silver bullet mark on her helmet.

Soon, more bullets and attacks came from all directions, hitting her body, splashing all kinds of sparks, but she just stood up with her shield, standing still.

"What a bunch of naughty brats, hehe." She raised her arms, and then the same dense orange-red flames burst out from behind her, and many bullet streams passed through the battlefield and rushed towards the lurking "Holy Blue Cross Sect".

The bunkers that were originally used for shielding were directly turned into a hornet's nest by these dense and surging bullets, and the members who wanted to attack and kill with lightsabers were also activated by the dense storm of bullets and exploded halfway. The exoskeleton armor on the surface of the body burst into shining sparks and debris. If it weren't for the teammates rushing to save him, this reckless member would probably have died on the spot.

Soon after, the fire of shooting stopped, and the members of the "Saint Blue Cross Faction" who were panting on the opposite side could see the fighters wearing black heavy armor who walked out after the smoke. Each of them was like an iron tower, wearing completely sealed super-heavy armor. Every step they took would bring heavy vibrations. When these warriors held huge shields and lined up in four rows, they were like an insurmountable wall, blocking the entire street.

There was a horizontal transparent window in the middle of the shield, and below the window was a brown-gold flame. Although it was called flame, the lines were particularly hard and had a heavy sense of oppression.

The security contractors under the Jiehuo Heavy Industry are well-known mercenaries in the Federation. As security contractors for branches, they are even more famous than the parent company. The company has an excellent reputation and often appears in various extremely dangerous environments. It often accepts official commissions to protect important people or things.

At this moment, in the sharp-nosed shark star field, not only the civilian independents and conservatives are fighting, but also the various forces stationed in the sharp-nosed shark star field, the combat forces of many giant companies, members of religious factions, and the security forces of various local companies have also swept in.

In order to seize control of the star field and to stand in the future, various forces began to make choices.
