Chapter 697: Life is flawless since ancient times



The story began fifteen days ago.

On that day, the outer patrol units of the Second Theater simultaneously detected extremely high energy reactions in the folding space, curvature space and three-dimensional universe. The highest energy level index in the core area far exceeded the intensity when the three fleets arrived.

This caused an uproar in the Yunding Theater and the Imperial Army.

However, the army of the Yunding Theater was a veteran after all, and responded to the emergency at an extremely fast speed. In just eight hours, the initial troop mobilization was completed, and several main combat corps near the Second Theater were mobilized here to lay a net.

At the same time, highly mobile troops in other major theaters also entered the curvature channel one after another, gathering here from all directions.

Considering the size of the Yunding star field, it would take at least 14 days for humans to complete the complete troop mobilization. However, the Second Theater troops and the elite troops led by the First Special Operations Army that arrived earlier are more or less reliable.

After the arrival of the human army, patrols and reconnaissance were further strengthened, striving to find out the whereabouts of the other side.

Strangely, although humans have turned on the power of many of the latest detection equipment to the maximum, and patrol frequency and density to the highest, they still cannot find any trace of the enemy.

However, the high-energy reaction in front has never disappeared.

It's like a scorching sun is burning in front of people, but they can't see or touch it.

Twelve days later, a dramatic change occurred.

The three fleets of Compound Eye risked a folding maneuver at the same time, pushing the entire front forward and launching a large-scale battle.

It was less than two months since the last large-scale battle between the two sides.

In the last battle, Tang Shimin and Zheng Yifeng emerged as a new force, leading the highly mobile special warfare fleet to continuously attack cities and capture strongholds, with outstanding military exploits.

The newly appointed commander-in-chief Andrei Vlcek also overcame all objections and gave the young Tang Tianxin an important task, assigning Tang Tianxin a corps-level fleet that should have been commanded by at least an admiral. Tang Tianxin lived up to everyone's expectations and perfectly combined the surprise attack of the antelope with the meticulous frontal attack and defense. She also made high-intensity and perfect use of various new equipment and new technologies. In the end, Tang Tianxin's troops broke through the enemy's heavily guarded lines several times, continuously cutting the battlefield, changing the direction of the regional war situation, and indirectly affecting the overall situation, allowing humans to inflict heavy damage to the compound eye army in this battle and gain a huge advantage.

So it stands to reason that the compound eye fleet should rest for at least two or three months before taking the next step.

Combined with the strange high-energy reaction detected in front of the second theater, the compound eye's action this time is very abnormal.

Everyone knows that there must be something wrong when something is abnormal.

In order to prevent accidents, the Yunding War Zone will continue to push forward the defense line of the first special forces, which have just been reorganized and have the best detection capability, the fastest response capability, and the strongest special situation response capability. They are the most elite in the world, and have switched to a wartime posture. All core positions are manned 24 hours a day, computing power allocation continues to remain high, pilots and soldiers and other special forces maintain high-intensity shift patrols, and the power engines of various warships are also kept in a high-energy consumption 50% idle standby state for a long time. The

command hopes to play the leading role of superior forces and make the first special forces a stabilizing force, because according to common sense, as long as there is any movement in front, it is impossible to completely hide the eyes and ears of the first special forces.

But no one expected that the three fleets would forcibly fold in an area that was not suitable for folding and maneuvering, and the big move that cost the two armies three points before they even faced off was just a fake shot.

The real target of the compound eyes is all the blade forces that serve as the absolute main force, including the First Special Operations Army!

In the energy level index chart, the peak core point is always in the front, but the first to sound the combat readiness alarm in the First Army was Tang Shimin's command ship, which was located behind the side of the formation and always in the highest concealment form.

Almost at the same time as the alarm sounded, the outside observer responsible for naked eye observation saw a scene that he would never forget.

In front of him, in the blink of an eye, hundreds of millions of giant eggs suddenly appeared in the space near the empty ship.

These eggs are about two meters long and 1.5 meters in diameter. They are snow-white, exuding a metallic luster, and floating quietly. What

really makes people feel scared is not the number of giant eggs, but the fact that the observers outside the ship found that there was nothing there in their brain chain intelligence projection, but visually, there were thousands of troops approaching the city.

And the light on the surface of these giant eggs is not reflected from the stars, but the energy reaction inside them.

This light is not linear, but shows a very strange vibration frequency, which is spreading silently.

The observer was wearing a portable protective armor with strong interference shielding ability, with multiple layers of real energy level physical materials and energy shields, but he had no resistance to the frequency of the snow-white giant egg's release.

The observer himself also had a gene awakening rate of up to 55%. Theoretically, he was naturally immune to the surprise attacks that the compound eyes had relied on, such as "Song of the World".

But at this time, he still had an indescribable fear in his heart.

If it weren't for the mark of the Fate Covenant that stabilized his mind like a stabilizing force, I'm afraid he would have been holding his head and screaming madly on the spot.

When the observer turned on the reporting system and reported what he saw, a flood of emergency information had already gathered in front of Tang Shimin and the captain of the command ship.

The captain immediately ordered full power to try to break through, while opening the shield and overload operation, and the ship's many energy weapons and kinetic weapon systems were also turned on simultaneously.

In addition, the captain also mobilized the special warfare units responsible for patrolling and guarding near the command ship and a large number of intelligent war machines to actively attack the giant egg.

Many patrol units were patrolling near the giant egg, but the soldiers and operators, like the observer before, were shocked by the inexplicable fear in their hearts, so they reacted half a beat slower.

Fortunately, the intelligent weapons did not have this problem. They had already completed the enemy and friendly target identification and launched the attack first.

Weapons of various types hit the shell of the giant egg, causing ripples, but no matter whether they were energy weapons or kinetic weapons, they could not make the giant egg move at all. This thing seemed to grow in the universe.

The technicians in the command ship looked at each other. Although many human weapons had hit the giant egg, they could not collect any feedback parameters at all.

Without information, it is impossible to analyze the enemy's materials and performance, and it is impossible to find a targeted restraining plan.

On the other side, bad news came from the command room. Although the power of the medium engine and the curvature engine had been turned to the maximum, the ship was still motionless.

As for the folding engine, it was also in a bad situation. It could not identify the corresponding folding point at all and could not enter the folding space.

"The white eggs have been releasing interference to the outside. The space around us is locked like frozen water!"

Tang Shimin made a prompt decision and approved the fighters outside the ship to use micro-fragmentation bombs.

But just before the first fragmentation bomb was detonated, the shell of the giant egg broke apart one after another, revealing a group of metal faces.

These human faces ignored the attacks around them, opened their bloody mouths, and ate the broken eggshells completely at a very fast speed.

The technical team finally collected some parameters.

"The material of this metal body structure is highly similar to that of the mechanical civilization Aphids. It is speculated that it is the evolution of the Aphids. It has a brain, but its brain is composed of... the core of the Mi. What a huge core of the Mi! Wait, the frequency of their outward-emitting thought quantum storms is 99.99...% similar to our human brain."

Normal Aphids do not have a fixed shape. Some Aphids look like a square piece of metal, some look like various strange machines that humans have made, and some are simply a large piece of scattered metal element mist.

As for the half-mechanical, half-biological Mi tribe, their appearance is somewhat similar to humans, but they are smaller in size.

This new type of creature that appeared before everyone's eyes seemed to combine many characteristics of the Aeolus, humans, and the Mi tribe.

In the end, it was Ou Xuyang, the chief scientist on the command ship, who gave a definite conclusion.

"That is not human thinking, it is a hypocrite that once appeared. This is the most advanced modified life created by the Compound Eyes so far. Their design subject is the Epiphyseal clan. According to our current naming rules, they can be called the perfect evolution of the Epiphyseal clan. The highly penetrating interference waves they release to the outside have caused great psychological pressure on our warriors. Their operation does not follow the physical laws within the Milky Way. The Compound Eyes used technology from outside the Milky Way."

Just as Ou Xuyang was reporting the news, a loud explosion broke out outside. It was a micro-fragmentation bomb that hit them.

The working principle of today's fragmentation bombs has not changed much compared to those of the past, but with the continuous advancement of materials science and engineering technology, humans have continuously improved the explosion mechanism of fragmentation bombs, making their impact more directional and much more lethal to the target.

However, after the shock wave of the originally indestructible fragmentation bomb dissipated, the metal man's face remained motionless, and even grinned at the same time, as if smiling.

Tang Shimin and many members of the First Special Operations Army's staff were all stunned.

This was simply unreasonable.

In human cognition, no matter what, when it is hit at close range by the destructive force formed by the collision of real energy and virtual energy, the two basic components of the universe, it is impossible to remain unscathed.

Even a black hole can be destroyed as long as the power of the fragmentation bomb is strong enough to neutralize the stable energy feedback inside the black hole.

Even black hole-like matter, if it is exploded at close range, will have its internal balance broken and shattered into pieces.

But this perfectly evolved body of the Epiphyseal Clan was completely unharmed.

This is the first time in history, and it also shows that the Compound Eyes seem to have successfully found the sublimation technology to restrain the fragmentation bomb.

The knowledgeable Ou Xuyang can't imagine what kind of technology it is.

Because according to the current understanding of mankind, it is even possible to say arrogantly that when mankind has mastered the median value of real energy and inter-universe generations, the universe will no longer have any secrets in front of mankind.

Now this arrogance has been completely broken, and the impact on people is like the backward mankind in the history of nothingness witnessing the first time from the extreme speed movement to the absolute static curvature movement.

Humanity once again recognizes its own "ignorance" and inevitably produces great fear.

Tang Shimin was furious, "We must escape! We must send this information out!"

The next moment, countless faces finally moved, began to gather continuously, and combined into one thing after another that was getting bigger and bigger.

As more and more faces gathered into a whole, the warriors active outside the ship were the first to be violently impacted.

The mark of their destiny convention shattered silently.

Whether it was the top warriors or the ordinary warriors, they all hugged their heads in pain and screamed.

The opponent's combination continued, and finally gathered into a long giant snake, twisting its body towards the command ship.

Before the actual contact, the inside of Tang Shimin's command ship was constantly filled with the creaking sound of metal being twisted and deformed.

The indestructible energy shield seemed to be non-existent, and the air began to leak.

People were constantly swept into the vacuum of the universe by the leaking airflow.

Tang Shimin had to activate the emergency escape system under the commander's seat.

The seat bounced up from the floor and quickly changed its shape, turning into a small battle armor with excellent performance.

The command ship had no way to escape.

At this moment, there was a loud noise outside.

The Chengfeng special forces, which had been patrolling not far from the command ship, finally risked their lives to come over and used super-high-yield fragmentation bombs from the outside to blast open the solidified space built by the evolutionary bodies of the Axial Clan.

At the same time, Zheng Yifeng, who controlled tens of millions of modified Xuanyuan armor intelligent war machines, led hundreds of thousands of top warriors and more small and medium-sized highly mobile units to rush in. With almost no intelligence support, they launched a desperate assault on the human face aggregate that was serpentinely coiled around the command ship.

...

This war lasted for two days.

Humans paid a heavy price. Nearly 80% of the special forces were killed and wounded, and the casualties of ordinary armies exceeded 30%.

Humans were not able to destroy even one metal face. The reason for the enemy's retreat was not because they were defeated, but because they retreated quietly after fighting to a certain extent. They came and went without a trace, and humans could not even chase them.

Dong Shan combined the known intelligence and analyzed: "It is very likely that these epiphyseal evolutions are just short of energy and need to go back to replenish."

No one knows when the next attack of the evolved form of the Axial Clan will be, and where they will choose as the main attack point.

Humans, who can travel through the universe and mobilize resources from any star or space at will, and who boast of having reached the pinnacle of technology in the fourth-level civilization, have encountered a long-lost situation of helplessness.

Of course, Zheng Feng would not know about these news that are related to the overall situation and may shake the morale of the army.

He only knows one thing, that he has become an orphan.

Zheng Feng's heart suddenly became empty, as if a piece of flesh and blood had been hollowed out.

He silently turned off the communication.

The beetle he transformed into stood there blankly.

It seemed that tears were flowing, but at this time he was in a state of remote brain chain, and the mechanical beetle had no tear glands.

His hands wanted to tremble involuntarily, but the structure of the micro-robot and the beetle prevented this meaningless energy-consuming behavior.

Zheng Feng looked around in confusion, and the beetles of his teammates all pointed their heads in his direction.

They were very confused.

"Captain...you...what's wrong with you?"

Li Qingqing asked.

Zheng Feng shook his head, "I don't know. I was just thinking, even though my parents and I have been together for some time and often chat in the quantum network, but why do I have the pain of losing something even though I haven't even got it yet?"

Li Qingqing: "What's the matter?"

"My parents died."

Everyone: "..."

The members of the Flying Tigers include Jane Roland, Qin Wu, and Lev. There are many optimized matches who have never seen their parents since childhood.

The joys and sorrows of each person are always different.

These people understand Zheng Feng's sadness, but it is difficult for them to empathize with him.

Looking at his teammates with different reactions, Zheng Feng really wanted to find someone to ask, what did I do wrong? Why must my life be so incomplete?

He wanted to ask again, am I too greedy?
