"I am Tang Tianxin. From now on, I will serve as the highest commander of this operation."

When Tang Tianxin's voice sounded in the public channel, Zheng Feng, who was undergoing armor transformation, was slightly stunned, but soon relieved.

He has been in the Axial Clan Star for too long, and has experienced too many things here, and the mental shock is so great that he almost forgot that the little girl who grew up with him is now a highly anticipated new general.

Although she is young, has not commanded many battles, and has not much experience, no one can deny that her talent is rising as rapidly as the rising sun in the early morning, and it cannot be ignored.

Therefore, it is understandable to give this small-scale battle to her.

Tang Tianxin did not communicate with Zheng Feng privately, but asked the auxiliary artificial intelligence to quickly distribute the specific appointment instructions.

The nearly three million people on the Axis satellite are divided into a total of six battalions.

Each battalion has a different division of labor.

Among them, there are two battalions responsible for the main attack, and one of them is led by Lin Bu, which is indisputable. In the fully open competition completion progress ranking list, Lin Bu and his Fengshen Special Forces ranked first, and their development and comprehensive strength indexes are several times ahead of the second.

But the name of the captain of another battalion has caused considerable controversy.

A small number of teams that received orders before and rushed here to support are fine. These people all know that although Zheng Feng is not well-known and is almost at the bottom of the competition rankings, there must be important reasons that these small characters are not entitled to know.

But most of those who can come here are arrogant and outstanding people. Most of them are not convinced that a captain who is only a beetle is in charge.

Of course, all the contestants have become professional soldiers. Although they are dissatisfied, they only complain privately on the team channel. No one protests publicly.

But these people soon received two personal situation explanation documents.

One is about Tang Tianxin's promotion resume in just a few years. At the age of eleven, she has commanded a special warfare fleet for several years and participated in hundreds of large, medium and small battles.

She has never suffered excessive losses and has never completed a mission with a low completion rate. Not long ago, she even performed a combat mission at the level of a general with the rank of lieutenant general and completed it perfectly. In another highly confidential combat mission, she also received high praise. The army under her control suffered very little damage in an extremely unfavorable situation.

This is another stamp of approval for Tang Tianxing's appointment. The general meaning is, "You may not understand the commander's decision, but it doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. What matters is obedience and execution."

The other piece of intelligence is from Zheng Feng.

Only two things were mentioned. First, Zheng Feng had relied on his own will to get rid of the mark of the Fate Covenant, and under extremely unfavorable circumstances, he eliminated a reinforced anti-gravity centipede with only five primary beetles.

After reading these two documents, the young people who were previously unconvinced shut up.

This is the army, and strength is respected.

Maybe Zheng Feng was indeed mediocre when he first entered the competition, but there is no doubt that he had an enviable transformation in the battle with the anti-gravity centipede, and now he barely deserves the position of captain.

The mark has become an anchor in almost everyone's heart. At almost any time, the mark can help people in this way or that. Everyone knows that they have a mark, and they inevitably become dependent on it.

When faced with a desperate situation that cannot be dealt with by human power alone, the mark can help people stay calm and prevent collapse. When

one's side has a complete advantage, the mark can in turn help people stay alert and prevent them from underestimating the enemy.

When irreconcilable differences and disputes arise between each other, the mark can make people involuntarily put aside the dispute and seek common ground while reserving differences. When

an individual needs to choose to sacrifice himself for the collective, the mark will also maximize the individual's group consciousness and give birth to a strong state of mind of abandoning the ego and pursuing the greater self.

The Fate Covenant Mark, which was proposed by Zhou Donglai and then improved and promoted by countless scholars, has played an indelible and important role in human civilization for more than a hundred years.

People have completely adapted and cannot imagine how people without the mark can live.

Zheng Feng gave them a brand new answer.

But they dare not do the same themselves, and can only guess and imagine in their hearts.

Unknowingly, Zheng Feng became a catfish wandering in the hearts of three million participants and tens of millions of off-site think tanks. Because of Zheng Feng's small actions, silent ripples are slowly spreading on the lake.

...

In the next ten days, the team reorganization work continued. More and more teams arrived near the Flying Tigers base, but they did not gather together, but gathered in this large valley and hills with a relatively high density.

From the perspective of visual perception and intelligence, this area is no different from the surface of a normal satellite. It is still a large number of tower smelters, with chimneys one after another spewing useless waste particles into space. A large number of beetles, centipedes, heavy-loaded spiders, dune bugs, shovel trucks and fully functional variable metal complexes are running around, busy and in full swing.

In the previous failed sneak attack, human ships left a lot of wreckage, most of the usable materials were recycled on this satellite.

According to normal labor rules, it will take the Apiary satellite about two months to completely digest all the materials and get the giant ships moving again to send the usable finished products to the planet.

Of course, now that the satellite has been infiltrated by humans, its progress will change to some extent.

If the Flying Tigers' base is compared to a bacterial colony, then the Epiphyseal satellite at this time is a spherical culture medium surface. The bacterial colony composed of human soldiers is quietly expanding and eating up the productivity and resources of the Epiphyseal on the satellite.

All technical personnel, including Pink, have discovered something strange.

The operating efficiency of the bottom beetles that have been implanted with Trojans in the core program by humans seems to be a bit too high, several times that of ordinary Epiphyseal beetles.

Behind the human base, there is obviously a third-party force that ordinary people cannot contact, which is constantly optimizing the computing power for all production tools such as a large number of human beetles to further improve production efficiency.

Ordinary people didn't know, but the imperial command including Tang Tianxin saw it clearly.

According to the information provided by the Supreme Intelligence Service Department, the decentralized mainframe quantum computing network composed of hundreds of millions of stars scattered across the star fields of the Empire is currently performing extremely high overload computing.

The service department believes that this is somewhat dangerous and may shake the stability of the mainframe Fanxing. It has tried to reduce the computing load, but failed. The order sent by the service department was rejected by Fanxing.

One after another, risk index assessment reports from the various grassroots offices of the Intelligence Service Department flew to the decision-making level of the Empire like snowflakes, and finally converged into a huge information flow.

More and more reports clearly pointed out that with the official issuance of the decisive battle order, all regions of the entire human race are currently undergoing large-scale overall mobilization.

Every moment, every minute, every second, there are hundreds of billions of people, as well as even more military, scientific research, and production-related materials flowing like water through the curvature gravity lines and countless star gate transmission channels at three distances: near, medium, and far.

In the heart of the empire, the mighty fleets, personnel, and warriors are pouring into various ultra-long-range star gates like rivers flowing into the sea, and gushing out from the first, second, third... Tiandong star gates deep in the Cloudtop war zone like magma eruptions.

With the current resource mobilization capabilities of mankind, the Morning Wind Empire, which is fully operational, can consume all the energy that a sun can release in its lifetime every thousand seconds just to meet the transportation needs.

In other words, it can consume 3,154 suns a year.

The entire Milky Way is only enough for humans to consume in this way for 86,000 years.

Compared with the lifespan of the galaxy, which is several billion or even tens of billions of years, this consumption rate is extremely terrifying, far exceeding the upper limit of the third-level civilization by many times, and ordinary fourth-level civilizations can hardly catch up.

It took humans ten thousand years to go from a 0.7-level civilization to today, and finally to be able to mobilize such a huge resource in a general mobilization.

Humans have truly achieved the goal of exhausting the power of the Milky Way for all civilizations to do one thing with the same goal.

To cope with such a strong dispatch, the demand for intelligent computing power in each link has been maintained at an extremely high level for a long time.

Therefore, the main brain Stars must not make any mistakes, otherwise it will cause huge turmoil and cause astronomical losses.

In order to understand the situation and eliminate risks, the service department spent a lot of energy to find the cause, and the conclusion finally reached was a bit ridiculous.

The reason why Fanxing's computing power load exceeded the standard is because she took the initiative to make two major inclinations.

First, more computing power was allocated to the third front, including the epiphyseal star. The main brain Fanxing is trying to simultaneously improve the strategic capabilities of human special forces on all stars in the iron wall chain array.

Second, the personality of the main brain Fanxing is undergoing a high-intensity human simulation, transforming into a perfect girl image, and is doing something under the identity of "Xiaowei". Of course, the people in the service department cannot see what "Xiaowei" is doing specifically. Fanxing has encrypted this data at the highest level. It is said that the password decoder is only owned by the long-dead sages.

The human leadership finally decided not to ask further questions and chose to trust Fanxing's decision.

As long as Fanxing remains loyal to humans, then all her decisions must be more beneficial to humans and in line with her own logical judgment. Fanxing's logical judgment principles come from the planning of the ancient sages, so Fanxing will not make mistakes. If she is really wrong, then humans can only admit it.

...

But on the other hand, at the Apiary satellite base, although Zheng Feng was promoted to the captain of a battalion of nearly 500,000 people, he actually has nothing to worry about for the time being.

The brigade established by Tang Tianxin is very sound, with available people in almost every key position, and everyone is allocated additional intelligent computing power.

Before the team was officially dispatched to the Axis home planet, he didn't have to do anything.

A miraculous change happened. After opening the absolute connection, not only was his life temporarily safe, but his life became much more relaxed.

Except for the annoying guy named Bainstar Gai who always came to pester him, he had a peaceful life and everything went well.

I don't know what's wrong with this guy. He is obviously one of the best warriors, and his comprehensive strength is not inferior to his father Zheng Yifeng or Spartacus, but he always seeks Zheng Feng for advice.

Zheng Feng almost agreed, but after watching Bainstar's demonstration of the operation with the bulky fourth-level dune worm, Zheng Feng only hummed twice, "Well, it's okay. Let's practice it again. Your fighting style is strong but not clever enough. You use all your strength when you move, and you can kill everyone when facing ordinary opponents, but if you encounter the perfect-level combat units of the compound eyes, you will easily suffer. If you encounter enemy units with special abilities, it will be even more difficult to turn around, and you may lose your life if you are not careful." After

listening to Bainstar, he fell into deep thought, thinking about something.

On the other side, Zheng Feng was also suddenly stunned, thinking something was wrong, and immediately turned around and wanted to leave.

Unexpectedly, Bainsta rushed up and said in an excited tone: "Brother Feng, you are right! I almost got fooled when I met the human-faced monster a few days ago. Teach me quickly, let's learn from each other!"

Obviously, he was very receptive to Zheng Feng's advice.

Zheng Feng: "..."

I can't teach.

He is very self-aware. With his current ability, if he uses the same level of equipment to fight Bainsta, his chance of winning is less than 10%. In

addition to "too hard to break", there is also "one force can defeat ten skills" in the ancient proverb.

"Forget about the competition. I'm very busy now. Let's talk about it later."

"Where are you going, Brother Feng?"

"To training."

"Huh? Can I join in?"

"That's your business. I use the brain link simulation training that everyone has."

"Oh oh."

Zheng Feng thought that the simulation training he had accessed through the duck-stuffing artifact was really a common thing that everyone could enjoy, but the truth was obviously not the case.

Five minutes later, Zheng Feng entered the virtual space again and met teacher "Xiao Wei".

Since participating in the finals, Zheng Feng has been too busy and has no free time. He has interrupted his hard study in the duck-stuffing artifact for a long time.

He didn't expect that in this environment, he would have the opportunity to calm down and study.

It has been several days, and although Zheng Feng does not want to admit it, the fact is that he has completely adapted to the fact that his parents left.

His emotions tell him that he may be a little too cold-blooded.

But his reason has come to a very clear conclusion.

That is, in his subconscious, he has always had a hazy and unreal feeling about his father Zheng Yifeng and Liang Yun.

From the very beginning, he even felt that the past ten years were just a happy dream, and now it is just that the beautiful dream is shattered and people wake up.

When he lost, his regret was greater than the pain.

The source of his anger is the loss after gaining, but it is not the pure rage of the parental blood feud recorded in history books.

In addition, the shadow of the Morning Breeze II mothership has not appeared for a long time, and the buzzing noise in his mind has gradually subsided, leaving only the fragments of memory that continue to emerge every moment, every minute, and every second, which are so long that they seem to never end.

Until now, more and more of these pictures, which are several seconds long or one or two seconds short, have been automatically pieced together in chronological order, and are about to form a complete life.

Zheng Feng still can't see the real and specific pictures now, and it always seems like seeing flowers in the fog, but he has keenly realized that sooner or later, the fragments of the puzzle will be completed.

At the moment of completion, the thick fog will disappear, and the answers to many mysteries hidden in the heart will emerge.

Zheng Feng can also feel that as the puzzle continues to be improved, his personality is also quietly changing.

For example, when faced with Bernstad's request for discussion just now, with his original personality, he would not clearly understand, but he would inexplicably give pointers.

Because Zheng Feng felt that he was not as strong as Bernstadt, and he was worried that giving random advice would lead people astray.

After finishing those words, Zheng Feng himself felt puzzled for a moment.

This is not the first time that this has happened.

Zheng Feng had noticed it before, but didn't take it seriously.

However, this situation has been happening more and more frequently recently. No matter how slow he is, he should have noticed that something is wrong.

What's even more peculiar is that even though I know something is wrong, there is always another voice in my heart saying, "It should be like this."

Zheng Feng thought again, maybe, when the puzzle is complete, I can also get the answer to this question?

"Teacher Xiaowei, can we start the class?"

Zheng Feng took the initiative to say.

"Xiaowei" looked at Zheng Feng, "What's wrong? I see you are worried."

Zheng Feng said softly.

It's strange, in the past, Teacher Xiaowei never greeted me. She was a devil teacher when she met me, so stern that it made people feel uneasy.

Did the sun rise from the west today?

Why would she ask about his worries?

Zheng Feng nodded, "Yes. I've been through a lot recently."

"I know, your parents died, right?"

"That's one aspect, there are deeper reasons. I can't explain it clearly."

Fanxing: "Let me summarize it for you, that is, you think you should be like that, but you are like this. Right?"

"Huh, how do you know?"

Fanxing laughed in his heart, of course I know everything, because you are now absolutely connected, and your thoughts are running in the intelligent brain core controlled by me, how can I not know?

"I have heard a philosopher say this before."

"What?"

"Seeing a mountain is a mountain, seeing water is water. Seeing a mountain is not a mountain, seeing water is not water. Seeing a mountain is still a mountain, seeing water is still water. Have you heard it?"

"No."

"What you think now may not be what you thought before. You think you should be like that, but maybe, you should have been like that. Well, think about what I said slowly after you think about it."

"Okay."

"Enough of the nonsense, let's start the class. You've missed a lot of classes recently. You should be a little more sensible now, and your concentration and logical thinking should have improved, so we have to use six hours to make up for all the classes you owed."

Zheng Feng was shocked, "Teacher Xiaowei, you..."

Here it comes, the familiar electric shock, hitting the soul, hurting the heart, can shake the heart, and instantly make all the seven emotions and six desires disappear, leaving only emptiness.

Looking at Zheng Feng who has entered a state of full concentration on learning again, Fanxing silently drew an arc at the corner of her mouth.

Don't look at how philosophical her words are, but in fact she still has doubts.

This doubt concerns the fate of Zheng Mo, Zheng Yifeng, Liang Yun, Tang Yingyu, Tang Xiaao, Tang Shimin and others, and is also related to the battle of the epiphyseal evolutionary body and the venue of this competition.

When the venue was selected, it was the chaos quantum calculation done by Fanxing himself, which used the random comparison samples generated by trillions of different people making different choices in the face of different things, and achieved true perfect randomness. In the end, it landed on the epiphyseal star.

At that time, no one knew the existence of the epiphyseal evolutionary body, including Fanxing.

When rolling the dice, the weight of the epiphyseal star in the 10 billion options in the iron wall chain array was not high. It was just a very insignificant numerator, and the denominator was 10 billion.

But in the end, the Axial Star broke through the one in ten billion probability and became the only inevitable result.

There are too many incredible coincidences here, so that the super intelligence that controls all the secrets of mankind, Fanxing, also fell into self-doubt when reviewing it.

Six and a half hours later, Zheng Feng walked out of the underground hidden base.

There was a little accident. After completing the theoretical knowledge learning, he planned to enter the combat training and talk to Instructor T about life and let himself accept a realist beating, but Instructor T disappeared. He didn't get a response. The fastest update on the computer::/

Zheng Feng wasted half an hour and tried for a long time. In the end, he was called out by an urgent notice sent by his adjutant Matanikelaus.

"Captain, there is a little girl named Zero here looking for you. She left the team and came here alone. She drove a heavy-duty spider across most of the satellite surface, and along the way... destroyed eight level 7 units, dozens of level 6 units, and countless other level 3, 4, and 5 units. She brought a lot of debris and supplies. Captain Bainstar said... that she is simply the second Valkyrie. The first is Instructor Tong."

Zheng Feng: "..."

What's going on?

Bainstar can't even handle herself, and here comes a more crazy Valkyrie?

Who is this? Why haven't I heard of this person before?

Can't I, the captain, do a good job!
