After five years, the insect wave struck again.
This time, the worm wave caused an uproar in the entire Federation—because the situation this time was too bizarre and sensational, the swarm was able to bypass the border defense line set up by the Federation, and did not alert any other planets and fleets along the way, as if Straight into the heart of the Federation like a dagger.
Not only did it break through the protective cover of the planet, but it also wiped out the Federation's garrison on the planet and raged in the city.
Why is this happening
Could it be that the Zerg really evolved wisdom? Or are there human beings inside the planet as traitors
Numerous conspiracy theories are spreading wildly on the star network, and everyone is discussing every possibility in horror - after all, before the Zerg has evolved intelligence, the instinct of reproduction and destruction alone makes human beings tired, if The first possibility really appeared. No one could predict what the future battle situation would look like, and no one dared to think about it.
In addition to the discussion of the battle itself, there is another thing that also occupies the traffic of the entire Star Network.
You must know that this insect wave is more dangerous than before, but the blow to the federal city area, even in the entire federal history, is considered minor.
how can that be
You know, the garrison on this planet was directly wiped out! And because the communication satellite was the first target of the Zerg attack, the rescue arrived six hours after the Zerg attacked.
However, neither the number of civilian casualties nor the extent of damage to buildings was serious.
What exactly happened on the planet these few hours
Many survivors of the cataclysm opened the mic on the Star Network, countless photos, videos, and a large number of posts about their personal experiences poured into the Star Network, and heroes who volunteered to go to the battlefield poured into the public eye-it was they who risked their lives. At the risk of their lives, they stood in front of millions of innocent civilians with their flesh and blood, built an indestructible copper wall and iron wall, and turned the tide under the overwhelming terrifying insect tide. Those who survived the disaster were all grateful.
Among them, a short video attracted a lot of attention.
The video is very short, it seems to be shot through the window, the lens is blurry and shaking, although it is not clear to see, but you can still see the black swarm of insects flying by, even through the screen, you can feel the horror and horror. repressed.
However, surrounded by insect swarms in the air, two mechas were flying.
One black and one white, fighting with their backs facing each other, their cooperation is so tacit, almost no insects can approach a distance of ten meters near them, the artillery fire exploded in the insect swarm, and the broken corpses were thrown away.
In the pitch-black worm tide that covered the sky, the two mechas seemed so small, but they were as unshakable as beacons standing in the storm and could not be swallowed.
According to the time of the video shooting, they should be the first two mechas to participate in the war.
This video set off a huge discussion on the star network:
"God, only two mechas can fight for so long under the siege of millions of Zerg, and they are not at a disadvantage... What kind of fairy pilot is this?"
"And their cooperation is really awesome. If you don't fight side by side on the battlefield for more than ten years, you can't cultivate such a strong sense of tacit understanding!"
"I have a cousin who learned to drive mechas. I showed him this video. He said that the level of operation of these two mechas is terrible. Whether it is technology, pre-judgment or field control, they are definitely the top in the industry! If one of the pilots trained in the past can be regarded as a national treasure, there are actually two at one time!"
"Wait... That black mecha, don't you think it looks familiar?"
Soon, according to the tactics habitually adopted in the battle and the small details of the mecha that can be seen in the video, the masses of the star network picked up the owner of this mecha-the mysterious legendary figure, Hines Estero.
After the insect wave five years ago, he once again stood up as a savior.
"I'll just say it! Such an operation is definitely a god!"
"So handsome, so handsome!!"
"Then... Who is driving the white mecha next to it? It can keep pace with a great god like Hines Estero, and it doesn't seem weak at all... Is there such a driver in the entire Federation? How come we never heard of it?"
"Am I the only one who noticed that the white mecha is very similar in design to the black one? I don't know if it's my delusion... I always feel like a couple's machine?"
"Don't make up your mind? Mecha pilots are generally alphas, right?"
While there was a lot of debate on the Internet, a shocking post appeared on the star network and instantly topped the major discussion lists:
The title of the post was: "I seem to know why this epic swarm was wiped out so quickly."
A video is attached below.
The video was shot from a distance, and the footage was equally shaky, but the content shocked everyone.
This time, only the white mecha is left in the video.
It swept across the dim sky like a silver-white lightning, and a huge swarm of insects like mountains and tsunamis followed closely behind it, and the manic neighing and humming sound of wings resounded through the sky, as if a constantly changing entity The huge monster, the next second will be able to swallow that mecha.
The silver mecha swooped down and slammed into the ground at a fatal speed!
The heart can't help but clenched tightly in an instant!
However, the most shocking thing is that in the next second, a tongue of fire erupted from the ground, a deafening explosion sounded, and the scorching flames spread rapidly along the dense swarm of insects—the camera seemed to be hit by the airflow generated by the explosion, After shaking violently, it suddenly darkened.
But the astonishing scene and the violent flames that dyed the whole world red were deeply imprinted in the eyes of every viewer, as if the terrifying temperature could be felt through the screen.
There was an explosive wave in the star network.
The entire Federation is discussing and searching fiercely - did the driver of this silver-white mecha survive the terrifying explosion
More importantly... Who is he
Ge Xiu has been in the hospital for the past few days, unaware of the uproar in the outside world.
He had been in a drowsy state all the time.
exhausted.
The only feeling is exhaustion.
There is no strength in the whole body, but the sleepiness that penetrates into the soul does not seem to be dispelled by sleep. Even though he has slept for more than ten hours in the past few days, there is still no sign of improvement.
Gossi wasn't surprised by this.
It's not the first time he's had this experience.
This rapid physical exhaustion only means one thing - that is, the group outside the virtual world is not satisfied with the extent of his punishment in this world, and decides to speed up the process and extract him from this world in advance Leave.
Ge Xiu could clearly feel that he was rapidly becoming weak, and even the time he was awake was greatly reduced.
Most of the time he was half asleep.
Gossi hated that feeling.
Not just because he felt like he was losing control of his body little by little... but mostly because his nightmares intensified as he slept.
In fact, since the end of the last world, his nightmares have not stopped.
He couldn't remember the content of his dream every time, but he always remembered that dark and cold feeling.
Therefore, after entering this world, Ge Xiu consciously reduced his sleep time.
In fact, in a sense, his sleeplessness was also to escape the nightmare that haunted him every night.
However, since his body began to fail, this situation could no longer be avoided.
Ge Xiu was immersed in a nightmare, like a traveler who accidentally fell into the swamp. No matter how much he struggled, it would be of no avail. He could only be dragged into the icy abyss bit by bit by that heavy force.
Every time he wakes up, the people at his bed are different.
Sometimes Admiral Drost.
He became older than before, depression and pain were written in every wrinkle from his eyes to his face, and he often stared at Ge Xiu for a long time, as if he owed him a lot, but he didn't know how to speak.
Sometimes it was the nurse, or his two older brothers who had barely seen each other, and Igor would occasionally come to update him on the current investigation progress and current events outside.
Hines, on the other hand, was the one Ghosh had seen the least.
But, according to the carer, Hines always seemed to come by when he was asleep, and one sitting was one night.
He seldom spoke, and never made any major movements, just sat quietly beside Ge Xiu's bed and stared at him for a long time.
He hurried away until he found signs that Ge Xiu might be waking up.
— He seems to be looking for a way to heal himself.
Gexiu knew because he often woke up with a new souvenir on his bedside table, from other planets, and those planets were often medically advanced, or biotechnologically advanced—and Every time he sees these memorabilia on his bedside table, Gossiu knows that his treatment plan needs to be changed again.
…and again.
The other party exhausted all means and desperately searched for any hopeful method, just to prolong his stay in this world, even if it was only a year and a half, every minute and every second.
Gorsch is not good at dealing with complex emotions.
So when faced with this situation, he was a little overwhelmed.
He wanted to tell Hines that there was no need to work so hard, that his physical condition was not within the scope of medical treatment, but he didn't know how to speak, how to stop...
Ge Xiu looked down at the little shell in his hand.
The edges are glossy and colorful in the sun, pretty but not practical.
It was at his bedside this morning.
Ge Xiu gently touched its blunt edge with his fingertips, the bottom of his drooping eyes was deep and dark, and some complicated emotions were surging in the bottom of his eyes.
He wanted Hines to stop such useless efforts and attempts.
Over and over again, trying in vain to find a way to save him, trying again and again to bring him back from the brink of death...
Why bother
It just adds to the pain.
At this moment, the door of the ward was knocked gently, and the nurse came in and said, "Mr. Derost, do you have a visitor, would you like to see me?"
Ge Xiu put the shell back on the cabinet beside him, then leaned back and nodded casually:
"Row."
Anyway, he is very bored now.
Five minutes later, the visitor pushed open the door and walked in slowly.
Ge Xiu raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at the young man standing beside his bed—he really didn't expect it to be this one.
Percy Edmure looked away somewhat unnaturally, then put the gift in his hand aside, and cleared his throat:
"Cough... are you okay?"
Ge Xiu nodded: "Yes."
Percy fell silent for a while, he secretly raised his eyes and glanced at Ge Xiu, then seemed to make up his mind, gritted his teeth, and said:
"I'm here... to thank you... for saving me in that building..."
Ge Xiu took out a candy from under the pillow, peeled it off and put it in his mouth, and replied casually:
"Don't worry, you will do the same."
"I won't." Percy raised his eyes suddenly. He looked directly at Ge Xiu, and said firmly: "If you were trapped in that building, I would not have rescued you."
He is very aware of his character.
Faced with the misfortune of someone he has always hated, even faintly envious, the only thing he will do is to gloat at the misfortune and turn around and leave.
Even if the identities are exchanged, if he is Iris, he will never lend a helping hand when he sees someone who has been trying to make things difficult for him trapped.
"Oh." Ge Xiu didn't make a big reaction, just responded lightly.
Percy asked, "Do you regret it? Help me?"
Ge Xiu glanced at him incomprehensibly and said:
"Whether you save me or not is your choice, what does it have to do with me?"
He chewed the candy in his mouth and continued vaguely: "I save people so that you can disarm the armor, fight the Zerg or evacuate the crowd - but, even if you don't do it, I won't regret it,"
Ge Xiu raised the corners of his lips and revealed a bright smile:
"Because I will directly eliminate the factors that made me regret on the spot."
- His original phrase "kill without mercy" was not a joke.
Percy's pupils shrank slightly.
He didn't seem to expect that the other party would give such an answer.
Percy forced himself to look away, and changed the subject somewhat stiffly:
"Anyway... Thank you for saving me, so do other classmates, they just don't have the right to enter the hospital and can't directly thank you in person... "
He lowered his head and took out a large bag of high-end candy from his gift—before he came, he had asked about Igor's patient's preferences.
Percy gritted his teeth:
"Although I still don't like you much, but... I hope you get well soon."
·
an hour later.
Percy sat thoughtfully in his room.
The lights were not turned on, and the whole room was shrouded in a layer of dark and dark light. He sat quietly in the darkness, his motionless figure like a silhouette.
His mind was so chaotic that it was almost impossible to gather his thoughts.
On the big screen on the side, there are countless heated discussions on the star network, as well as the video of the silver-white mecha diving straight to the ground.
The video played automatically, but the sound was never turned on.
The room was once again dyed red by the silent explosion.
Finally, as if awakened, he opened his personal terminal.
There, a video also taken from that day is kept.
Since the last time Percy turned on the recording function of the personal terminal in the training ground, it has not been turned off. As long as it detects the presence of Iris, it will automatically record - he originally wanted to use this to record the other party's words and deeds. , so that he can find his ugly and dark side to attack him, so that Igor can give up his unrealistic infatuation with this Omega.
Ah... Igor.
Percy suddenly realized that he hadn't taken the initiative to think of Igor for a long time, and even the only time he met during this time was to ask Iris what kind of gift he liked.
It's... so weird.
Percy suddenly vaguely understood Igor's unwarranted attention to Iris.
After all, even he… couldn't get that peculiar Omega out of his mind.
But he still hated the omega.
Percy told himself over and over again in his heart with some lack of confidence.
He raised his eyes, his eyes fixed on the screen, the silver-white mecha being chased by a huge swarm of insects—it was so light and elegant, it passed through the air like a ray of light that could not be caught.
Percy took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.
He lowered his head and cut out the video he took on the practice ground that day.
Then, clicked "Publish".
-one way or another.
Heroes deserve the support they deserve.
