Chapter 394
Chapter 394
The First Star Domain Mecha Alliance! ? Luo Xu didn't expect that there would still be mecha divisions that could arrive at the border at this time, but the arrival of 247 mecha divisions at once was a timely support for them.
"Major General!" the adjutant reminded.
Luo Xu knew that this was no longer the time for communication, and they could not waste even a minute: "Get into formation immediately, time is running out, set off immediately!"
Within two minutes, the senior officer nodded, and the elite team led by SHIELD merged into the fleet of warships transporting the jammers. The three starships entered the route of the three warships, and the communication channels of the mecha division were completely integrated.
Ji Qingfeng said in surprise: "How come Captain Wu didn't even inform the group about his arrival in advance?"
Ying Chenlin looked at the others and explained, "Because we weren't sure whether we could find reinforcements at first."
You Su saw this and roughly understood what was going on. "That's why you didn't tell me in advance."
The First Star Domain is the most stable region among the major star domains. Since the border riots began, they have not received any call-ups, but have been assisting the surrounding Second Star Domain in suppressing pollutants. The original mecha divisions of the First Star Domain are scattered throughout the First and Second Star Domains.
When I knew that Kolya was short of manpower,
When Ying Chenlin and Huo Yan sent a message to Wu Qingshuang, they originally wanted to transfer a nearby mecha technician to help, but they knew that the possibility of successfully asking for help was not high... but they did not expect Wu Qingshuang to be able to come over and bring other mecha technicians with him.
Wu Qingshuang said, "These are the only people we can urgently mobilize in a few hours."
Captain You Su Jingming said: "Thanks to Chairman Li of the Dawn Galaxy for giving us the green light all the way, we were able to get here so quickly. Fortunately, we made it in time."
The First Star Region rarely gathers together. This time when something happened in the other four star regions, the mecha divisions of the First Star Region were also assisting in the surrounding areas. No one wanted the crisis to continue to expand. The loss of the border would have too much impact on the entire Star Alliance. All they could do was rush to the support area as quickly as possible as soon as they received the call for help.
Everyone knew that now was not the time for greetings and explanations, so after the 247 mecha divisions of the First Star Domain were incorporated into the formation, they were directly introduced into the Dawn formation. The warships and starships moved at the fastest speed and headed for their destination at full speed.
Wu Qingshuang went straight to the point, "What's the situation now?"
When Ying Chenlin and You Su heard Wu Qingshuang's question, they immediately put the marching route they got from Luo Xu on the shared screen of the temporary Star Alliance Mecha Division channel. A route map popped up inside the cockpits of all the mechas. When they saw the route map, a gloomy look appeared on the faces of Wu Qingshuang and others.
Originally, with the HGF-445 orbital jump, their march would take two days. Now that they have lost the jump system, their routes to HGF-445 are limited. They must start from the border of the Dawn Galaxy in the first star field, cross the border of the second star field, then cross the border of the fourth star field, and finally arrive at the location of the HGF-445 orbit in the fifth star field. The fastest time is estimated to be three and a half days.
The route map almost overlaps with the high-risk areas currently announced by the Border-Star Alliance Supreme Command, which means that if their team wants to rush to the fifth star field as quickly as possible, they can only rush through the second and fourth high-risk areas in succession.
"What's the fastest time to pass?" Su Jingming asked.
You Su: “It’s just an estimate.”
When the warship entered the high-risk area of the border defense line of the second star field just after 9 hours of marching, the original defense system was covered with dense pollutants. The image information transmitted back from remote locations showed the now precarious border defense line. All the mecha divisions who saw this scene held their breath and stared, but soon this difficulty fell on them.
The pollutants that broke in from the border wandered along the routes within the second star field. When warships passed by, the pollutants seemed to have discovered a high-energy target and rushed towards the flying warships like hungry tigers.
All the warships turned on their defense systems and rushed forward. Small pollutants were flushed away by the warships' defense systems one after another. The Mecha Alliance and other mecha divisions stayed in the warships and watched the border army's almost brute force crushing method.
Seeing for the first time the grand spectacle of border military warships attacking pollutants, Ji Qingfeng said: "This defense system is awesome!"
Lin Yao said: "Can't we just rush directly to the fifth star field?"
“We won’t be able to break out of the second star field by charging like this.” You Su said.
When the warship entered the high-risk area of the second star field, everyone realized what You Su meant by not being able to break out of the second star field. In the high-risk area, they saw an existence far more terrifying than the Taino Crack they had seen before. At a glance, there were dense pollutants. The tide of pollutants gathered together was like a giant net. When the first warship collided with it, everyone felt like they were hitting a sponge.
"Shit... so many pollutants, are you kidding me!?" Hu Luobu was stunned.
"So this is the high-risk area." Colin said in a deep voice.
The huge propulsion force of the warship could not break through the beast tide formed by a large amount of pollutants. In an instant, the mecha operators in the docking station saw only overwhelming darkness. They could not see all kinds of pollutants. The large amount of pollutants hit by the warship crawled over along the blue defense system deployed by the warship.
Alarms sounded on the six ships at the first moment, and the border soldiers on the three outer warships rushed out from the docking stations and stood on the warships to resist the influx of pollutants.
"Everyone get ready!!!" Huo Yan shouted in the communication channel.
The mecha divisions of the Mecha Alliance did not dare to fall behind and rushed out from the interior of the ship in a flash. When Ying Chenlin flew to the periphery, he saw overwhelming pollutants. The warship's defense system could withstand the impact of a small amount of pollutants, but once it encountered a beast tide that was more terrifying than the warship, the huge pressure would make it difficult for the warship to advance. Not only that, the defense system might withstand attacks from all aspects of pollutants.
The location of the Mecha Alliance starship was within the protection range of the warship, and the attack of the entire beast tide was particularly clear to them.
"We can't go on like this. The warship won't be able to hold out for long!"
Ying Chenlin has been following those weapon design masters these days and has specifically asked about the warship defense system. This defense system is very similar to the shield of a tank mecha. For example, in the event of an explosion, the defense system only needs to withstand the impact in the direction of the explosion. However, if it is completely surrounded by pollutants, then the defense system is equivalent to bearing damage without blind spots. For the warship defense system, this kind of damage is far more terrifying than impact damage.
When the Covenant mecha divisions saw this situation, several commanders hurriedly thought of countermeasures to deal with the pollutants.
"We have to find a way first."
"We need to deal with the pollutants ahead first. We can't let the warship stay in the beast tide for too long."
Not far away, the border troops seemed to be aware of this problem. They had no time to deal with the pollutants here, and all the border troops' attack focus fell on the front of the warship.
"Isn't that Lieutenant Colonel Lu?"
While the Covenant mecha division was dealing with pollutants high up on the warship, a team led by a lieutenant colonel of the Dawn Border Army rushed forward at this moment. Their speed was faster than other spaceships. They quickly distanced themselves from the main force and jumped out of the periphery of the warship's defense system.
The Mecha Alliance's mecha masters were about to go up to help, but You Su and Huo Yan landed directly in front of everyone, and Ying Chenlin and others were stopped behind them by You Su and Huo Yan.
Chi Liz paused: "Aren't you going to help——"
You Su: "I can't help you. They are border troops."
The medium-sized spaceships driven by the border troops, along with the shells fired by the warships, slammed into the tide of pollutants ahead rapidly. Three spaceships formed a triangle formation and violently crushed a crack in the pollution. With this crack, the heavy artillery carried by the warships fired one after another, immediately tearing a larger crack in the tide of pollutants.
"We'll clear the way!" the Shuguang Border Force officer shouted in the communication channel, "The rest of you go first!"
Huo Yan said calmly: "Let's go, they have more experience in dealing with beast tides than us!"
Ying Chenlin's eyes were slightly stunned. The mecha masters of the Mecha Alliance often thought about how to deal with the pollutants, but the reality did not give them any time to think. Staying to deal with the pollutants meant wasting time. If they delayed here for one second, the difficulties on the front line would be deepened.
"Find a place to hold on!" Ying Chenlin saw the warships at the bottom taking action.
All the Covenant mecha divisions immediately grabbed the surface of the warship. The next second, all the border troops were seen lying on the warship. When the Dawn Border Troops in front began to tear open a crack, the other warships rushed forward without hesitation, and broke through the heavy beast tide through the cracks they tore open.
"There's no time to look back." You Su said, "There's more ahead."
The silhouettes of the several spaceships behind them soon became unclear, but as the first two areas to fall, the beast tides in the second and fourth star regions continued far away. As soon as they broke through the first beast tide, there was a second beast tide...
It was as if entering the second star field, and everything had just begun.
The dangerous border lines and out-of-control borders, and the tide of beasts pouring in from the high-risk areas, seemed to make them realize how much risk this riot brought to the Covenant.
"Isn't the border line collapsed yet?" Lu Xi was stunned.
There are so many pollutants before it completely collapses. What will happen if it really collapses?
"There is an interference zone ahead. In order to prevent pollutants from quickly entering the Star Alliance, the Star Alliance has activated the buffer zone interference." Huo Yan explained: "So the pollutants that break through the defense line but cannot break through the interference zone will all gather here, forming the high-risk area beast tide we see." ⊥This⊥work⊥by⊥
Generally speaking, once the border troops have stabilized the border, they will clean up the pollutants in the buffer zone.
But now Kronos is still causing troubles one after another, and the border troops cannot do without the border defense line. As the riots involve a wider range, the high-risk areas of the buffer zone will eventually gather uncontrollable beast tides, and then they will all pour into the Star Alliance.
There’s a beast tide in the high-risk area…that’s why we need to hurry.
If we delay any further, the problem will not just be a problem of one Kronos—
Since entering the second star field, all the mecha divisions participating in the battle have not been able to return to the warship. All of them are inside the warship's defense system, cleaning up the pollutants that were pressed on the defense system when breaking through the beast tide. Ying Chenlin and the others then realized that in the huge tide of pollutant beasts, their personal strength seemed to become particularly small. The troops that they thought had become sufficient due to the reinforcements seemed particularly weak in the face of the continuous pollutant disasters at the border.
One after another, waves of beasts surged up in front of them, all rushing towards the warship. In order to ensure that the sailing time was not affected in any way, the border army did not engage in a protracted battle. The various assembled border army teams chose to stay behind to escort the main warship forward.
The mecha warriors broke out from the beast tide, but the black shadow that emerged again in front of them made people feel endless terror. At this time, the Covenant mecha divisions felt fear for the endlessness of the universe. The territory that the Covenant had conquered was a safe and peaceful world, but outside the border, in the wilderness was a power that was difficult for humans to understand.
When the warship was about to break through the border of the second star field, it was stopped by the beast tide again, and the mechas going out to fight were covered with polluted blood.
"…This fucking thing never ends!" Ji Qingfeng looked up.
Ying Chenlin shook off the pollutants of death and stood on the warship looking into the distance. They had already rushed out of four beast tides, but the dark scene in the distance that was about to merge with the universe made everyone feel breathless. They had never seen so many pollutants. After killing one batch and washing away another batch, there were still continuous streams of pollutants pouring in.
He glanced at the time. One and a half days of the estimated three and a half days of sailing had already passed, but they had not yet completely rushed out of the second star field, not to mention that there was a fourth star field behind them. Under such circumstances, this would not work at all. Not to mention whether the warship's defense system could hold up, their time would be completely consumed by the beast tide, and it might take nearly five days to reach the border.
"The number of border army spaceships has also decreased." You Su reminded.
Ying Chenlin realized the problem and their staff was also decreasing. He was just thinking about whether there were other solutions when he suddenly saw a place farther away. Their beast tide had not yet left, and in the airtight distance, more pollutants seemed to be pouring out.
"We can't get out at this rate."
The mecha masters in the communication channel were silent for a while. Wu Qingshuang, Ke Lin and others looked at the beast tide in the distance and seemed to have made a decision, "Then let's stay."
Meanwhile, on the HGF-445 front—
Outside the signal area affected by the special magnetic field, the large border army force led by Wei Changyang has chosen to surround the entire HGF-445 area. The border army's defense line continues to press inward, and has been trying to communicate with the mecha division that has lost contact inside, but has never received a reply from inside.
Without receiving the signal, their external troops could not take drastic action.
Any bombardment by large weapons from a warship will ignore all the soldiers inside. The command room will be silent and the only signals that can be heard are constant reports and no information at all.
"We can't delay any longer."
"If something has happened to the people inside, all our delays outside will allow Kronos to accumulate more energy."
"Kronos will not give up this place now. Our attack can be effective."
Wei Changyang listened to what others said, and the only thing that came to his mind was the appearance of the soldiers guarding this army. He didn't believe that Lin Yi would die here just because of a signal interruption.
The people inside will not give up, and those outside will definitely not give up. "Continue to clean up the pollutants outside and clear a route for the advance."
"Commander, time may not be enough--" Other border officers asked Wei Changyang to make a decision.
Wei Changyang's eyes stayed on the track of HGF-445. "The jammer targeting Kronos is on its way. Any action now will only make all the previous efforts fall short."
At this moment, the border soldier sitting in front of the signal receiver shouted urgently: "It's bad, commander!"
"The junction of the second star field and the fourth star field." The soldier looked at the transmitted signal, which was an almost terrifying pollution signal. "The border troops guarding the border couldn't hold on. The defense line collapsed, and the largest beast tide in the second star field is forming."
"Wait." The officer from the third star region shouted, "Isn't that place——"
Other people in the command room immediately looked at the large map of the United Front Command. Several transport ships that had rushed in from the First Star Region were at the intersection of the border line. Wei Changyang's pupils shrank slightly, and his hands were firmly on the programming table. "Disruptor warship."
"Send troops to support!" said another officer.
"I can't spare any troops."
"The border troops are now in control of the outer areas of the Second Star Region, and we can no longer mobilize troops for support. If we allocate a large portion of our troops to support, we may not be able to defend the border."
On the virtual screen, the scarce troops in various places showed red signals on the radar. Wei Changyang stared at the warship where the jammer was located, but the warship led by Luo Xu had not yet asked for help.
-
Inside the warship's main control room, the overlapping pollutant signals on the virtual screen almost covered the entire warning frame. One beast tide after another passed, and instructions from various channels poured into the general command room. The border troops who were calculating explained the situation on the route ahead over and over again. Luo Xu looked at the latest signal scanned by the radar system, and a beast tide appeared again at the border between the second and fourth star fields.
“What’s going on!?”
"The defense collapsed and everyone rushed in."
Luo Xu's expression tensed when he saw this situation. It didn't collapse earlier or later, but just when they were about to rush to the border line! !
He hurriedly looked at the troops that could be mobilized. Now they had to find a way to rush over before the beast tide in the distance gathered completely. Otherwise, if they were really gathered, they would all be consumed here.
There are very few spacecraft that can be mobilized in the system. Luo Xu said in a deep voice: "Leave the warship, transfer the other jammers to a warship, and leave a warship to cover the rear——"
At this moment, a warship located behind the warship rushed over at a faster speed than the others.
The SHIELD starship rushed to the front. Just like the Border Force spaceship that paved the way for them before, the mecha division and the starship tore open the crack in parallel. The adjutant was stunned when he saw this scene: "It's the mecha division of the First Star Region."
Since we are here to escort the warship, we must escort it all the way. We are already in the territory of the Star Alliance, and it is the responsibility of the mecha divisions to prevent the invasion of pollutants. The tank team led by Wu Qingshuang held up the shield when the starship tore open a crack. The SHIELD mecha division, known for its defense, directly used its shield to expand the protective shield. Behind them was the You team led by Su Jingming, and other mecha teams.
Ying Chenlin looked up and was about to rush over to help with You Su, but a hand held him back from behind.
"Don't go."
Ke Lin and Wen Yi grabbed the two people one after another. After controlling them, YDS and the Black Crow's mecha masters followed closely behind Wu Qingshuang and flew higher before them.
Since the border army cannot mobilize other forces, then let their alliance mecha division fill the gap on the front line. If the border line is lost, it will be useless for them to hide in the rear and clear out the pollutants.
Ke Lin and Wen Yi also joined in, and the temporary straight line was propped up in front of the three warships behind them.
Zhao Lejie didn't expect that Hu Luobu and others also came over: "Luo Bo! Chi Liz!!"
Hu Luobu: "Old Zhao, go with them!"
Chi Liz said: "We'll hold the line here, you guys go to the front line!!"
Seeing this, You Su said in a deep voice, "Thank you."
When Hu Luobu heard this, Hong Pao's hands almost trembled: "Can you say it again? I'll record it first."
Ji Qingfeng: "You are good, kid!"
The mecha master's relaxed laughter rang out in the channel, but Ying Chenlin didn't know what to say, and finally could only say: "Stay alive."
Ke Lin: "Don't worry, dealing with pollutants is our specialty."
"We are the ones guarding the rear now, the rest depends on you, KID and Jifeng." Wen Yi said.
The soldiers of the Border Army would eventually run out. They had traveled thousands of miles to Koria, just to escort these warships, which were related to the lifeline of the Star Alliance, to the front line.
The border army did not expect that at this time, the mecha division of the First Star Domain would choose to stay behind to cover the rear. The adjutant looked at Luo Xu who was making the decision. Luo Xu knew that he could not hesitate at this time, so he immediately ordered the bombardment. The shells fired forward were almost parallel to the starship of the First Star Domain. After the energy exploded, the mecha division rushed towards the pollutants pouring in from the side, opening a way forward for the warship.
"Major General!!! The defense line in front has been broken!" the adjutant shouted.
At this time, another starship rushed over from the side in the distance. The starship was covered with scars, showing the symbol of the second star field. The PJT team and the GBK team from the second star field came to support with a starship. They seemed to have come from a long distance, and there were cracks on the tail of the starship, but they rushed to the side without any hesitation and knocked away the contaminants next to them.
"That was close! I calculated the route correctly!"
"Finally we made it. I was worried that you would be crushed by the beast tide before we got there."
"Why are you here——" Ying Chenlin was surprised.
Bai Xuyan snorted coldly: "Did our united front group come from Bai Jian? Just because Team Wu will bring people to support us, will our Second Star Region just sit there and watch?"
GBK Captain Claude said: "Since it is within the territory of the Second Star Region, there is no reason for us to stand idly by."
"Sink, go ahead, leave this to us." Norbert spoke in the communication channel. His mecha appeared right above the starship and said in a relaxed tone: "Don't worry, there are people waiting in the fourth star field."
"Let's go!"
"Go, don't waste time!"
"Teach Kronos a lesson for us!"
The Alliance Mecha Divisions from the First and Second Star Fields arrived, and the two starships opened up the route one after the other. Luo Xu did not expect that after the First Star Field, the Mecha Divisions from the Second Star Field would also arrive. This kind of border location should have been the responsibility of the border army, but now the Alliance Mecha Divisions that were supposed to guard the interior have arrived at the front line, risking their lives to stand in front of them.
They should be able to clear out the pollutants from a safer rear, and now they have all moved closer to the border line.
Luo Xu was silent for a while, then said solemnly: "Everyone! Thank you!"
He took a deep breath and then shouted on the communication channel: "All warships, move forward! We are going straight ahead!"
Ying Chenlin looked at the starship in front of him and the mecha pilots on it. The thrusters behind the mechas of the Mecha Alliance lit up, emitting flames of energy in the night sky. The mechas that came out one after another were like meteors. The mechas of different colors seemed to be covered with the same color at this time, opening up a path in front of them and guiding them in the endless dark universe.
The warship rushed through the second star field under the cover of other mecha divisions. When it entered the fourth star field, the mecha division of the fourth star field that Alice contacted also arrived.
Alice said: "We can also squeeze in people from the Fourth Star Region."!
The Alliance mecha divisions who were temporarily transferred from various major star fields rushed to the support line from afar. All the mecha divisions stood in front of the damaged warship, as if opening a safe path in the beast tide, guarding this transport ship that was related to the fate of the Star Alliance to a farther place.
The mecha masters didn't know how long they had been walking until they broke through one beast tide after another. Countless friendly mecha signals on the mecha masters' radar systems overlapped with the pollutant signals of the beast tides. Blue and red light spots dotted the extra spectrum. The blue light spots rushed into the red waves, and warships and spaceships rushed out from the surging waves.
Later on, time had become very short. The command room and the mecha operators had no idea how much time had passed. By the time they had passed the last wave of the fourth star field, several speeding spaceships had stopped in front of them, with the blue lights on to guide them.
Ying Chenlin and others stood on top of the warship, looking at the countless warships encircling the area in the distance. The HGF-455 track, covered by heavy fog, appeared in front of them.
It took them 4 days, 8 hours and 24 minutes to reach the front line.
The author has something to say:
Here we come!
