Chapter 111
For a moment, Lin Han felt that the roar of the mecha engine could not cover up his heartbeat.
He blinked twice very slowly.
After He Yunting's lips left her face, Lin Han put one hand on the corner of his lips that had just been slightly raised, trying to feel this silent and gentle smile again with his fingertips.
Lin Han heard a very clean and simple voice.
[I love him, I want to take him back safely. 】
So there is no way we can fail. 】
Lin Han traced the other person's thin, cold lips with his fingers and lowered his eyes.
Not all those who write history are completely neutral.
Because those books often say that behind those cold-blooded tyrants there is always a person who is extremely beautiful but harms the people.
However, the fall of a dynasty and the change of an era are clearly the result of many people and many situations, but people tend to put the blame on one person and make him a sinner for all eternity, who will never be able to turn over a new leaf.
But fortunately, He Yunting will not be a tyrant, and I will not be a beauty who brings disaster to the country and the people.
Lin Han sat up straight, took off He Yunting's hat, and fearlessly reached out to touch his cold hair.
The other party didn't understand what was going on, but remained quiet and motionless.
"What's wrong, Mr. Lin?"
The real beauty put the fake tyrant's military cap back on and said with a smile, "Nothing."
Lin Han licked his lips, feeling a little unsatisfied with his imagination.
The small blanket beside him moved, and Gululu finally woke up.
Perhaps because it had ridden in flying vehicles many times, it seemed to have finally overcome the dizziness of the mecha and was staring at the two people in front of it.
Lin Han spread out his hands and let the little guy rub against him.
The furry and warm little ball grabbed Lin Han's clothes and climbed up. Finally, under He Yunting's cold gaze, it didn't feel comfortable to continue to get into Lin Han's collar and just stayed on his shoulders.
Lin Han finally laughed out loud.
This person started to act unreasonable again at this time.
He is really changing, Lin Han thought.
It’s because of myself that I change.
So he finally stopped being obsessed with the lost time. The stars were still shining brightly anyway, and maybe they would cross the stardust and meet in another unknown time and space.
He Yunting continued to contact Lu Anhe. Lin Han rubbed Gululu's head and waited for the mecha to arrive at the fortress.
He Yunting naturally has nothing to do with tyrants, but when talking about kings just now, Lin Han thought of Wen Zhao, whom he first met not long ago.
People from other star regions say that the emperor of the M galaxy is always indescribably cruel.
It seemed that he allowed the parliament to quarrel all day long, and he would occasionally pass by and listen. The military power was given to He Yunting without any suspicion and trust was given without hesitation.
But in addition to possessing the empire's top blood and pheromones, no one will forget that when he was young, he led a fleet expedition, wiped out nearly half of the Zerg forces, and reinforced and upgraded Fortress X until it expanded to its current size.
In short, even though he looks lazy and easy-going all day long, he is actually a character that is not easy to mess with.
The air around the fortress was cold and thin. Although people would not have direct contact with the outdoors, He Yunting still raised the temperature inside the mecha a little.
Lin Han recalled the scene when he had just come out of the parliament and unexpectedly met Wen Zhao.
At that time, His Majesty the Emperor was holding a chess piece in his hand, playing with it attentively and carefully.
He also remembered that the piece was the "Queen" in chess.
He thought of the plain skirt in the Galaxy Exhibition Hall, which was said to have been stored there by the Queen, who called it a symbol of love.
So is there such a person behind Wen Zhao?
Lin Han didn't pay much attention to the royal family's movements. He only vaguely remembered that the queen did not appear often.
A shake brought Lin Han's wandering thoughts back.
"It will be a little bumpy due to the impact of the air flow when landing." He Yunting turned around and explained to him. Lin Han nodded. Worried that Gululu might feel uncomfortable, he carefully put it in his pocket and patted it gently to comfort it.
And I obediently let him hold my hand and stand up, looking at the universe at this moment——
This was the first time he saw Fortress X in person.
The M2742 is considered a relatively large heavy mecha, but it is just this size when placed here.
They probably landed at the bottom, so Lin Han was able to look up through the porthole.
After all, the function of Fortress X is similar to that of the fortress on Earth tens of millions of years ago, but it is more magnificent and shocking. To its left is a giant space station surrounded by faint spots of light. Various weapons are placed from bottom to top according to energy consumption requirements. Every row and column is shocking. On the right is the place for docking starships. In order to ensure the safety of the fortress, this design allows the largest starships to be directly accommodated in the event of an accident without any connection problems.
The beam of light emitting dazzling white light in the middle is the center of the fortress. It stores an entire order of magnitude of energy. There are giant capacitors that can charge the laser cannons on the upper level, and there are also gigabit multi-mounted superluminal particle accelerators that support the largest main gun on the top.
In short, the fortress is an unfallen flag and a magnificent star gate.
If the fortress is not breached and the jump point of the sub-star can be defended, all current crises can be resolved.
After a period of turbulence, M2742 finally drove into the bottom of the fortress. At the same time, the starship also arrived and anchored perfectly at the right end of the fortress.
Lin Han obediently let the other party hold his hand and stand up.
Although the fortress is large, the range of activities is limited to mechas and starships. Everyone will gather on the ship first, and then choose whether to stay in the fortress or board the mecha to fight the enemy according to needs.
There were too many strangers, so Lin Han didn't let the little ball go down with him. After giving it a few instructions, he let it rest in the mecha for a while, while he put on protective armor and walked out with He Yunting.
Lin Han originally wanted to go back to the team with everyone else, but he didn't expect He Yunting to simply not cover up anything after their relationship was made public. He grabbed Lin Han's hand and stopped him from going over: "Just stay next to me."
Faced with so many kind looks, Lin Han blushed for a rare moment: "...Okay."
Lin Han had never seen so many mechas.
In addition to the transport ship at the rear and the mechas assigned to each berth according to formation, there are endless mechas arranged neatly and classified according to different functions. There are mechas with a slightly lower level but responsible for defense, high-level mechas responsible for close-range fire attacks, and long-range strike formations that need to use fortress energy and accelerator energy storage, and so on.
In all the years he has been in this field, the institute has been mostly responsible for research and development and maintenance. If a new batch is developed, mass production will have little to do with them.
Therefore, even though Lin Han was familiar with every detail of all the mechas and knew the strengths and weaknesses of their driving, he couldn't help but feel excited when he saw so many high-spirited soldiers standing in front of his mechas.
Just like when they were about to go to the border area for training, the soldiers looked solemn, but still saluted firmly and swore: "We swear with our lives, faith and loyalty to the empire!"
Forge a sword with light, use stars as spears, use blood as blades, walk in the Milky Way of Chaos, step through the abyss of red flames, stupidity and sin will eventually turn to ashes -
"Only glory and victory will be mine."
-
Fortress X is different from the border areas. Despite the thin air and bad weather, one can still barely distinguish between day and night.
Before the first dusk fell in the fortress, the soldiers who had just arrived were still carrying out all the pre-war preparations in an orderly manner according to the deployment of the commander.
From the time they entered the fortress, for five consecutive days, news continued to come from various harbours. There were indeed Zerg trying to take the opportunity to invade, but they were small in both type and scale. The fleets at the harbours reported that so far no Zerg had been able to break through the harbours and enter the empire.
The media on the main planet sends good news to political parties and the public every day, praising the Empire's port defenses for being extremely solid and making it impossible for the Zerg to find any opportunity to invade. In this way, the breach of the city defense army's network defense line that day did not seem to be a terrifying thing - the people all thought so. After all, they could not even enter the dock, so asking them to break through a network defense line across a distance of light years was just a bluffing threat from the weak.
So everyone's attention was focused on the fortress.
After all, the Admiral is personally out to defend the fortress with a large fleet of mechas, and this is the most important battle.
If the Zerg had a little more sense, they would not have come to a head-on confrontation - unless they gambled all their strength and were determined to fight the Empire to mutual destruction.
But almost no one would be pessimistic about this battle. Even if some people have vague concerns, in the end they will choose to trust him because of the three words "He Yunting".
What's more, M2742 now has another new pilot——
The gossiping nature of human beings is ingrained in their bones. Moreover, the current situation is relatively stable. Many people have begun to dig deeper into who he is. It is surprising that such a cold person as the Admiral also has an Omega of his own.
Some people even started to write the cause and effect of this relationship, saying that Lin Han was originally an ordinary Omega in the civilian area, but fell deeply in love with the admiral after watching a battle video, and tried her best to enter the core area, just to be closer to him.
Unfortunately, the admiral was naturally cold and unapproachable. Omega’s pursuit throughout college was not favored by the other party. It was not until Omega entered the graduate school and worked hard every year to apply for internships that he finally saw a turning point.
In response to this, Lin Han’s colleagues who had previously guessed who the “big boss behind him is” had something to say.
What a long-term pursuit that has not been favored, and what a desperate effort to attend the practical training! In the past few years, Lin Han was reluctant to go to the base! They began to recall based on previous clues, and it was obvious that it was the admiral who pursued Lin Han, and that the baby had to use his own aircraft to pick him up every day, and he even came to the research institute in person to pick up his mecha in order to see Lin Han!
Of course, most people would disdain this conclusion. After all, the four words “the general pursues the girl” sound like a fantasy.
Not only that, some people also questioned his ability, not believing that a skinny Omega could control a huge mecha of this level.
At this time, colleagues continued to retort bluntly, asking if they knew what the concept of SSS-level mental power was. Is it easy for the entire research institute to have such an Omega? Besides, he is the best mecha pilot at such a young age. What's wrong with driving a mecha with his Alpha?
For a moment, no one could convince anyone else.
Despite the uncertain situation, the people remain lively and active.
Of course, the soldiers in the fortress had no time to pay attention to this news.
When He Yunting received the news for the sixth time that the Zerg had tried to break through the berth but failed, he still frowned in the starship.
He contacted Lu Huai, who arrived at Wen Yuzi Star at the same time, and the other party responded that everything was normal.
There were not many people on the sub-star, and the jump point was in a very remote place, but Lu Huai still watched over it carefully, fearing any accidents.
The fortress still looked peaceful, except for the joint shield that began to surround the outside and the energy storage symbols that lit up one by one.
"Boss," Lu Anhe handed over the sixth victory report, "The port at Area K is also well defended. Only a small number of Zerg troops invaded, but they have been eliminated."
"Yeah." He Yunting responded solemnly.
Gululu still refused to go to the starship. Lin Han was afraid that it would be lonely, so he did not leave the mecha. He checked the mecha parameters reported a day ago in the cockpit.
The scene of him walking down from the M2742 and taking off his helmet that day was still engraved in everyone's eyes. The soldiers actually wanted to take a closer look at the pretty and elegant "General's Wife", but unfortunately, she hardly got down from the mecha in the past few days, and only He Yunting would occasionally go in and talk to her.
From this perspective, it does seem like there is a beauty hidden in a golden house.
He heard a noise near the cabin door, and when he looked up, he saw He Yunting walking towards him.
Lin Han dimmed the screen a little, and seeing He Yunting sitting down in silence, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
The fortress was too quiet for five consecutive days, and the mecha responsible for reconnaissance in the front could not detect any movement.
But even so, the commander is always the one who stands the longest. All valves, energy storage, acceleration and various combat preparations must be guaranteed to be foolproof. After all kinds of information are collected together, responses and decisions must be made immediately...
Ordinary sergeants can take turns to ensure their physical fitness and sleep, but he seems to never get tired. He will return to his mecha to rest for a while only after finishing everything every day.
Lin Han saw He Yunting covering his brow with his fingers, as if trying to wipe away the tiredness that inadvertently leaked out.
He didn't say anything, nor did he ask He Yunting how tired he was today. He just grabbed the other's hand and held it in his own very seriously.
He wanted to use his actions to tell the other person that there was no need to hide his tiredness from me, and he also listened quietly to the situation at the moment.
It's so abnormal.
From the moment they broke through the city's defenses, everyone thought it would be an extremely difficult and fierce battle, but except for the first battle at the berth, the scale of the subsequent battles showed a clear decreasing trend.
Everyone began to think that the Zerg were really just "playing around", or that they had retreated due to the difficulty of the battle at the berth, with only a few scattered Zerg left to fight back.
But apart from anything else, anyone who has truly experienced the battlefield knows that if this brutal race by nature really decides to attack, there will be no option of retreat. They will just keep fighting and fighting until one of them no longer has the strength to stand up - even though that might be themselves.
High-level Zerg possess intelligence comparable to that of humans. They can also arrange deployments and use their own communication methods to organize their subordinates to assemble.
So the situation now becomes very strange.
The Zerg are also intelligent. Since they chose to jump over and declare war, they must have a high-level commander.
But now these scattered attacks seemed to be just tickling the formation guarding the berth - how could they fail five times in a row under the same type of defense?
"So..." Lin Han understood He Yunting's guess.
"They might be testing something."
In other words, “trial and error”.
"But the sub-star is not an ordinary port of call... Let's not talk about whether they can find it. Even if they do, if this is the number of Zerg like now, the troops under Major General Lu Huai will not be a threat."
Lin Han pinched He Yunting's fingers and said, "According to their current order of exploring one place a day, the sub-star is the farthest place, so it will take at least a week to get there."
He Yunting frowned: "But Lin Han, think about it."
"Are they so stupid that they continue to bang their heads against the wall and try and fail even though we can see it?"
Lin Han's fingertips stiffened for a moment.
A burst of rapid alarms suddenly rang out shrilly.
A scarlet light lit up on the starship. Everyone was already on combat readiness, and when they heard the alarm, all the mechas immediately took standby positions.
"You see." He Yunting's voice was not surprised at all, "So there is always a place waiting for us."
On the one hand, he wanted to let the people down, and on the other hand, he wanted to make the army realize that something was wrong at the port, so that they could split the troops from the fortress and send them back to the empire, which had already relaxed its defenses.
Lu Anhe's voice was relatively calm. After all, everyone was ready to fight when they came here.
He only said four short words.
"Boss, here we come."
He Yunting stood up and picked up the goggles beside him.
His expression now could almost be described as gentle, Lin Han thought, probably because he was shrouded in a layer of fatigue.
He still couldn't rest for even an hour.
"By the way." He Yunting spoke calmly into the communicator to Lu Anhe.
"Tell Major General Lu Huai that no matter what the battle situation is at the frontline fortress or whether the communication is sent in time, please remember this."
"Count down five days from now. At this time on the fifth day, no matter what the situation, all bombing devices loaded into the formation must be activated..."
"Destroy the sub-star jump point in one fell swoop."
The author has something to say: The next chapter will also be very fat, if not I will gain ten pounds (firm)
