Ten minutes later, the notification was successfully passed to the communicator of every soldier in the Traveler Galaxy at that time.

Not only the soldiers stationed here, but also the soldiers passing by here also received the message.

According to the current laws of the Empire, once a galaxy is caught in a sudden war, all soldiers in the galaxy have the obligation to participate in the war on the spot.

Unless they have a special mission and have a reason to leave, they must unconditionally obey the dispatch of the local superiors.

Even if the military personnel stranded in the sudden war star zone have a very high military rank, even higher than the local superiors, they are still subject to the constraints of this law.

Of course, the differences in personality of some people will also be taken into account in the specific implementation.

Senior generals and top fighters have the right to choose whether to join the local command system.

If they don't want to, they can also form their own special operations team on the spot, without being subject to the supervision of others, and make independent decisions on combat strategies and action modes.

However, low-level military personnel do not have this privilege.

As the war broke out, Tong Ling's small "dispute" naturally disappeared.

Everyone quickly dispersed and returned to their dormitories to wait for news.

Including Oytonk and others, the elite pilots who came to the Traveler Galaxy from other star regions to prepare for the T100 assessment were recruited without any suspense.

After confirming that the order had arrived, everyone followed the social atmosphere in the Traveler Galaxy and ran out to gather together.

The crowd was not unhappy, but rather eager to try.

Since they could become elite pilots, there would be no problem with the awareness of Oytonk and others.

Some of them were elite fighters who had just retired from the front line.

Even those who had never been on the battlefield had already prepared themselves mentally.

"Mr. Zhou, what unit do you think we will be assigned to? Will we have the opportunity to join the front line?"

Oytonk asked Zhou Wensong in the dormitory bar of the Habitat Space Station.

Zhou Wensong shook his head, "I don't know. From what General Forman said, the 'fish' we are facing this time is a new type of soldier that we have never seen before. No one knows how to deal with it, and everything has to be explored from scratch. So the situation on the battlefield will be very chaotic. I am not sure what will happen."

Oytonk shook his head, "I see. But since General Forge has ordered the evacuation of civilians in advance, the situation is definitely not optimistic, and everyone may die in battle."

"Yes." Zhou Wensong hummed, then smiled, "It's a coincidence. Tong Ling was originally going to be called up, but the command decided to let her take this valuable experimental model away, considering that she is still a trainee pilot of the T100."

Oytonk was stunned, "That's good. To be honest, I'm optimistic about the little girl and I really hope she can survive. Did you notice that when I spoke to her fiercely, she didn't show any fear, and still gave people a very tough feeling."

Zhou Wensong smiled, "Why don't we feel the same? It's just that she... forget it, since we have to evacuate, she naturally has no time to test any real-time programming."

Everyone didn't know where Tong Ling was at this time.

The little girl was obviously not a qualified social person.

She also received the notice, but she had one more choice than others.

She had a high degree of autonomy and could decide whether to stay or evacuate quickly with the people.

Three days later.

In the central core fleet of the 3rd Combat Brigade of the Traveler Garrison.

Oytonk, Zhou Wensong and his group looked speechlessly at Tong Ling, who was wearing the military uniform of the Traveler Galaxy and looked like an adult, but her height completely betrayed her age.

She imitated the others, holding her head high in the formation, with an awe-inspiring aura.

Everyone was confused.

Why didn't she leave?

"Little girl, why don't you evacuate? You can't even control your armor steadily now, which is equivalent to you still in the internship period. The situation in our empire is not yet urgent enough to require trainees to participate in encounters, right? Listen to your uncle's advice, you still have time to report to your superiors now, hurry up."

Oytonk pulled her collar and ordered viciously.

Tong Ling straightened her freshly-made military uniform and shook her head, "Thank you for your kindness. But I am a soldier, and a soldier's duty is to go to the battlefield."

"Don't be ridiculous, you little bastard! You don't understand anything at all. Your life is worthless, but if you let such a precious armor as T100 be easily destroyed, then you are a sinner!"

At the back of the crowd, a hot-tempered backup pilot finally couldn't stand the child's willfulness and shouted angrily.

But Tong Ling was not ashamed, she just shrugged, "I'm really sorry, everyone. Now I am still the person in charge of Brother T, and I have the final say in this matter."

After that, she turned around with her hands behind her back and ignored everyone.

No one knows what kind of determination she has made in her young mind.

Since you all think I can't do it, then I will prove that I can.

She doesn't believe that the special training that Brother T has given her in the past year is ineffective. She

even blindly believes that as long as she can do real-time programming, she will definitely get the desired results.

If the situation is more optimistic and the human defenders can easily win, then maybe she will leave.

But now, she thinks that the Traveler Galaxy needs her as a variable.

...

"What should we do now? Your little apprentice is going to die. Why don't you persuade him back?"

On Chen Feng's side, Fanxing said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Chen Feng shook his head, "She is still far from passing my final assessment. From what I have observed, her potential is almost exhausted. Only a true test of blood and fire can allow a person to break the bottleneck of natural shackles. Facing war is what she must experience. Now is not a peaceful era. It is not an exaggeration to say that everyone is in danger. Instead of lingering like a waste, it is better to be a momentary hero. Anyway, this is her own decision, just let her go."

In fact, Chen Feng didn't want to admit one thing.

He saw his own shadow in this little girl.

The less people are optimistic about it, the more people think it is impossible to do it, the more you want to try.

...

The so-called mid-line core fleet, the main combat units carried are pilots and intelligent war machines.

During combat, the midline fleet will stay more than 20 million kilometers away from the front line.

Its main function is to allow pilots to debug intelligent war machines on the spot, as well as to provide equipment maintenance and medical supplies, which is equivalent to the aircraft carrier formation in ancient times.

But there is one exception, and that is Tong Ling.

She and T100 will only complete a supply in the midline fleet, and then she will go directly to the front line.

If she still needs supplies later, she can only do these things in the front-line combat fleet.

Of course, the prerequisite for all this is that she can survive until the time when she needs supplies, or the front-line fleet still exists at that time.

In the preparation workshop of the large troop transport ship Thunder Light, Tong Ling is carrying out the final preparations for battle with the help of dozens of engineers.

Her preparations were much more complicated than others, because no one else would sit in armor, so her armor system needed an extra layer of protection.

Although Oytonk and others were wondering what Tong Ling was going to do, they all had their own work to do, so they didn't have time to pay attention to her for the time being.

"Tong Ling, your mission is to fly out of the 73rd exit of the Thunder Light, fly along the designated curve in a basic folding state to the flank of the crossfire line of both sides, then drop the proximity detector at the target location, set the mine-laying parameters of the roving lurker mines, and then withdraw quickly. When you stop folding, your distance from the battle line must be more than 10 million kilometers. Remember?"

Tong Ling's superior officer, Zhou Wensong, the pilot commander of the 3rd Squadron's centerline fleet, specifically instructed her before she set off.

The old man was temporarily promoted to a squadron-level pilot commander because of his outstanding military exploits, responsible for arranging various matters for hundreds of thousands of pilots.

It was actually a bit against the rules for him to give instructions to a single person, but no one investigated it further.

Tong Ling nodded, "Thank you, Grandpa Zhou."

"You're welcome."

Zhou Wensong didn't want to say too much, so he said a few more words, then immediately turned around and left.

At this time, the Thunder Light had already flown away from the satellite orbit farthest from the star in the Voyager Galaxy and arrived in the outer space.

The task that Zhou Wensong arranged for Tong Ling was actually very basic. If nothing unexpected happened, it would be almost impossible for her to really engage in a real fight.

Zhou Wensong believed that since Tong Ling did not raise any objections to such a conservative task, it meant that she had some idea in her mind and knew her own weight.

In fact, Old Zhou thought too highly of Tong Ling.

After getting into the armor, she only cared about her heart pounding with excitement.

Tong Ling secretly thought that this was her real debut, and she must win the first battle.

No matter what the mission is, she must complete it in the most perfect manner, and then prove that both Brother T and herself can do it.

She never thought about whether this mission was easy or difficult.

At the same time, she was a little nervous.

This is not Brother T's simulation tutorial. If you die in battle, you can start over.

Failure is equivalent to complete death.

She is not afraid of death.

She is afraid of the same thing as others, afraid that Brother T will die here.

Compared with the operating cabin of a real armored warrior, the emergency manned cabin where Tong Ling is located is much simpler in structure and the space is also very cramped.

Her whole body is wrapped in shock-absorbing and cushioning flexible material. Except for her ten fingers and eyeballs, she can hardly move from head to toe.

She is closing her eyes tightly, with her right palm pressing on the nerve connection plate.

There are still five minutes before departure, and she is now quickly programming according to the mission requirements.

Tong Ling muttered.

"When setting off, first use the C acceleration system to reach the speed of light within one minute, and then turn on the anti-reflection curvature mode..."

"During the continuous basic folding, Brother T should reset the folding parameters every ten times. This can make the folding more accurate and prevent the direction of travel from being predicted." "

The detector that Grandpa Zhou asked me to deploy should be the latest Down syndrome type 3. Its main function is to continuously radiate ZX rays, capture energy level changes within the area, and construct a simulation field..."

Just as she was thinking about it, a new alarm sounded again, harsher and more violent than before.

At the same time, Tong Ling's communicator received a report from the entire ship.

"Enemy attack! The enemy's vanguard has passed through our front-line defenses and reached two million kilometers in front of the center fleet! Everyone prepare to fight! All intelligent war machines are deployed, leaving no ships or mobile forces to defend!"

The commander of the center fleet gave the order quickly.

His words were concise and his attitude was firm.

Tong Ling, who was in the T100 virtual space, saw the task instruction column in front of her suddenly change, leaving only four words.

"Freely meet the enemy."
