Chapter 133: The cruelty of time

Views:

Lin Jingheng should be close to the hometown, but the heart of the rose cannot be regarded as "near hometown" to him - he doesn't know if the secret wormhole area will change after more than 20 years, and he doesn't know the chaos of time and space. Can Liu still send him back to his original place? Anyway, from his personal life experience, it is normal that things are always a little different than expected.

Since he woke up, in the fourteen Votto years, the distance he has traveled is too long, almost spanning life and death. By the way, he has developed excess patience and thought that there is a long road ahead, so he is not too anxious. Give birth to this "timidity".

As a result, "there is no far-sighted, there is near-concern".

For a while, Lin Jingheng's mind went blank. When he came back, he found himself sleepwalking and blurted out, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

"It caused a little blood pressure instability when passing through the wormhole, it's nothing," Soothing Agent No. 6 seemed to be holding a puppet's string, and the commander Lu Bi replied calmly, and he even smiled calmly and restrainedly, "Welcome back, General."

It seemed to him that Lin Jingheng just came back from a business trip for a week and walked into the conference room from the back door with his luggage as painless.

Before Lin Jingheng's burst of emotions could burn, he met the cold air head-on, stepped on the air, and fell into the ice cave.

What should it be like to meet again after life and death

When he saw Woolf again, he was filled with mixed feelings and emotions; when he saw Lin Jingshu, it was thrilling and emotional. Thomas Yang of the silver three received an unexpected call, and howled inhumanly at the remote communication key of the transition point. At this time, all the old silver ninth guards behind Lu Bixing were all red-eyed.

Only Lu Bixing was calm and composed, with an indescribable sense of strangeness.

"Sorry, I haven't introduced myself yet," Lu Bixing looked away from him, taking a panoramic view of the armed forces gathered at the edge of a galaxy, with a standard diplomatic smile on his face, "I am the independent government of the eighth galaxy. The person in charge, Lu Bixing, when the Galaxy Expedition Team was exploring the unknown area of the universe, stumbled upon an active natural wormhole area, and rushed in rashly. I didn't expect to come to the first galaxy, and I didn't intend to come out to disturb your friendly exchanges, but our people I happened to pass by, and I was blocked by you, so I had no choice but to come out and say hello."

Too many surprises today.

First, Lin Jingheng, who seemed to have opened the "Infinite Life" plug-in, showed up with the Ten Guards of Silver, and then an unknown armament emerged from the "Heart of the Rose" in the restricted area, whether it was the "Eighth Galaxy" or "traversing the natural wormhole area". ", can shake the jaws of a whole bunch of people, compared with "terrorists kidnapped a planet" is not sensational enough.

If it weren't for the missiles flying around here, media workers all over the world would have to squeeze in and hang their headlines for a year.

After a while, a general of the Central Army said: "The Eighth Galaxy Independent Government?"

"The eighth galaxy blew up the interstellar channel transition point and was isolated from the alliance. Therefore, an independent government was established and a new independent chronology was changed," Lu Bixing said. "This general, what is your name?"

"I'm Verduk, the former commander of the Central Army of the Second Galaxy, and I'm currently on a bandit extermination mission at the border of the First Galaxy."

"Good to meet you, General Duke," Lu Bixing nodded, "if there is a chance to have normal diplomatic relations with the Alliance, I hope to invite you to be a guest."

"Your league has not admitted it"

Lu Bixing interrupted him politely: "General Duke, 'independent government' means that we declare that we have the entire sovereignty, the whole territory, and the alliance are two equal regimes, we are not an 'autonomous region' of your land, do not Recognition of the Union legal system does not require Union recognition.”

All people under the age of 300 who were born in the new star calendar era do not have the concept of "country" and "sovereignty" in their minds. Even pirates outside the territory subconsciously position themselves as "anti-government armed forces". The grand dream of the "Glorious Empire" also chose Votto as the dream location.

General Duke was blinded by this rebellious confession and was speechless for a moment.

Lu Bixing lowered his head and glanced at the personal terminal. There were less than ten minutes left for the best effect of the No. 6 soothing agent in his body.

In these ten minutes, his reason was still overwhelming, and Lu Bixing carefully assessed the current situation - at this time, the focus of the field was of course the ten silver guards. The troop that can stir up the storm even when lying in the ecological cabin, the legend of the new star calendar has not changed for three hundred years, and it almost has a little meaning.

But the home is still the Union Army. The strength of the Alliance Army is about the sum of the Pirate Freedom Corps, the Ten Silver Guards, and the Eighth Galaxy Self-Defense Force. The mecha models seem a little old to Lu Bixing, but they are the ones who control the entire alliance. If it weren't for the fact that the pirates had kidnapped innocent people as hostages, the officials of the alliance had to make a gesture of throwing their hats away, and they would not have been entangled by these pirates.

Compared with the previous two parties, the military strength of the Pirate Freedom Corps appears to be relatively amateur, after all, their specialty is sabotage. The danger of these people lies in their madness, recklessness, and the fact that chip drugs can corrode any group of people from the inside, and do not solve the "opium" problem. This kind of planetary security personnel rebelled against the water, resulting in the kidnapping of people from a planet. But that's not about the Eighth Galaxy either.

As for the alliance, the Central Army of Lu Xin's old department supported half of their country.

Lu Bixing's eyes swept across Woolf in the corner of the communication screen. The old man who had reached the pinnacle of power and represented the "Declaration of Freedom" probably didn't know that the database of the forbidden fruit was repaired by him, which could pull Woolf off the altar. The list is in his hands.

Maybe the old marshal would have other explanations for this matter, but the forbidden fruit system shows that Woolf was on the forbidden fruit list long before the two masters of the White Tower had an accident. Watching his adopted son Lin Wei destroyed in the Garden of Eden, Lu Xin was framed in the Garden of Eden, and Lin Jingheng was recalled by the Alliance self-destructing the Great Wall—

What would Lu Xin's old ministries think of this

Are they inclined to think that Woolf is already a dog of the management committee? Or do you still want to believe that the old marshal did not conspire with the management committee, but just colluded with the anti-Ukrainian society outside the territory

Lu Bixing and Woolf looked at each other for a moment, and smiled at each other inexplicably, thinking, "I can unload half of your country now."

But someone must not want him to do that.

Lu Bixing sighed silently, and said slowly: "About forty years ago, there was a lady who was a well-known scholar, and because of changes in her family, she was forced to flee to the eighth galaxy - the place where her husband once fought. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone present knew who he was referring to, Lin Jingheng trembled in his heart, and suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"Her husband is said to be familiar to everyone. I heard that his injustice seems to have been cleared. He died in the conspiracy of the Eden Management Committee. The eighth galaxy outside the Garden of Eden." Lu Bixing paused for a while, and seemed to be very helpless, "We are a remote country, and a small half of the population is empty-brained, and no one has seen what the Garden of Eden looks like, including me, We have not received the same advanced education as you, and are separated from civilized society by hundreds of light-years. This is the status quo. Equal rights for the eighth galaxy were the greatest wish of the general during his lifetime. For me, this is the The last wishes of the ancestors.”

Woolf understood what he meant and stood there in shock.

The Central Army was also silent. For a time, countless pairs of eyes were staring at Lu Bixing's face, hoping to see the shadow of his parents on his face.

General Duke of the Central Army stammered: "You you are"

Lin Jingheng: ""

He knew that the one-eyed eagle was unreliable, but he didn't expect the old Persian cat to be so unreliable! Didn't he make an appointment that he couldn't talk about death, so he was kept in the dark and kept away from disputes for the rest of his life

And what is Chief Edward doing? Why did they push Lu Bixing to the front

Lu Bixing: "Zhan Lu, you can say hello to everyone."

The voice of artificial intelligence sounded from the mecha behind him: "Long time no see, all of you in the alliance—sir, I thought everything about you would be the same as General Lu Xin, and it will only stay in my database from now on. see you."

The sound that once dissipated on the edge of the seven or eight galaxies made Lin Jingheng's eyes warm, and he closed his eyes gently.

Zhan Lu continued: "I compared the genetic information of President Lu, General Lu, and Mrs. Lu respectively, and confirmed that he was the child born in danger back then."

Before Zhan Lu said anything, Duke of the Central Army interrupted him incoherently: "You report the comparison to me, are you really Zhan Lu? But Zhan Lu is not"

"I can send it to your mecha communication terminal," Zhan Lu replied calmly, "Hello General Duke, I remember that you and a few of your colleagues once secretly made a bet while General Lu Xin was away, trying to connect with my network. , to test my own threshold, because of my settings, I accidentally injured you that time, and you were treated in the medical cabin due to a concussion. I am very sorry, and I have always owed you an apology for nearly a century."

"It was when I was still guarding me for General Lu." Duke, the commander of the Central Army, was unable to say a word for a while, his lips trembling slightly, "Does he have any descendants? It's been so many years. Ah, none of us have ever done our duty, and we have grown up so big by accident. I'm sorry, General Eighth and Eighth Galaxy, how have these years been?"

"It's okay, but my ability is limited. At present, everyone is barely making ends meet. Thank you for your concern. I hope that one day, I can not disgrace my father's name." Lu Bixing said, "The situation in the active wormhole area is unstable. To prevent the passage from changing, I am afraid that we will be excused for the time being, and we will invite you to visit when the transition point is rebuilt in the future."

He made a gesture to the person next to him, and the back team of the mecha unit became the front team. At the same time, the heavy armor released the docking track, and gathered up the tattered small mecha of the Silver Ten Guards.

This wild boy who doesn't know where he came from, he just walked away with the Silver Ten Guardians as soon as he showed up, which is totally outrageous.

Wang Ailun was about to stop him, but Woolf raised his hand and pressed his shoulder.

Wang Ailun was startled, and then he discovered that, headed by Verduk, the Central Army of Lu Xin's old department had collectively made way for a passage, and they had the intention of fending off the pirates for them.

Lu Bixing stared closely at the docking track of the heavy armor, until the last small mecha was also included in his heavy armor, and he finally spit out the breath that was stuck in his chest.

A small reminder flashed silently on the personal terminal - telling him that twenty minutes had passed and the effects of Soothing Agent Six were about to wear off.

"Withdraw," Lu Bixing announced with a blank expression, "don't stay in the heart of the rose, let the expedition team be the leader, open the passage, and we will return directly."

"Yes!"

"Oh, by the way, I'll give you a gift at the end." Lu Bixing said, the command ship suddenly fired a missile with a range that exceeded the longest range of the Alliance Army, pointing directly at a pirate mech. On the battlefield, missiles are not uncommon , the slightly longer range is just a little apprehensive. The scary thing is that when the long-range space nuclear missile slipped out of orbit, all the surrounding mechas—whether the Alliance Army or the Free Legion—did not get any warning!

The target pirate mecha didn't have time to do any defense, and exploded into a fire on the spot.

Lu Bixing said unhurriedly: "According to my observation, the pilot's aiming skills are not good. When Caigui opened fire on the Alliance, he turned the fire to my people. Although we are poor, we are too embarrassed to take it. One of your missiles is cheap, pay it back on the spot, goodbye."

Lu Bixing said that he cut off the communication unilaterally, swaggeredly led his team to the Heart of Rose, and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Bewilderedly, he followed Lin Jingheng to the silver ten guards of the Eight Galaxy Self-Defense Forces. The mecha was shocked. Thomas Yang was like a turtle who had never seen the world, and his eyes were not enough: "The air pressure balance speed of the mecha sending and receiving is faster than that of the mecha. The same heavy armor of the alliance is one third faster. Wow, this spare mecha, this orbit is really fake? Is this the eighth galaxy? General, didn’t you say that the heavy armor of the eighth galaxy was from the pirates? Did you capture it, what?"

Poisson Yang couldn't bear it anymore, stretched his legs, and kicked his brother's back. Thomas Yang staggered forward a few steps, holding on to the wall of the mecha sending and receiving. The face is wrong.

Zhan Lu's voice came from the transceiver: "Be careful, Captain Yang Wei."

"Hey, Zhan Lu," Thomas Yang rubbed his nose, strolled back to the team embarrassedly, and pushed up Dr. Harden's wheelchair, "you're cool in 'new skin'."

"This is not my fuselage, captain of the guard," Zhan Lu said. "Because of the low cost performance, my mecha core function has not been repaired. Now I am just an artificial intelligence used by the chief's personal use."

"Chief?" Lin Jingheng raised his head.

"Yes sir, Chief Edward died of illness ten years ago. The current chief executive of the Eighth Galaxy is President Lu - I still like this title in private."

"Where's Turan? Where's the one-eyed eagle?"

"General Turan, as the defense commander of the eighth galaxy, was ordered to sit in the eighth galaxy. I think she should be waiting for us on the other side of the wormhole area." Zhan Lu paused, "As for Mr. Lu, the first The secret channel of the eight galaxies was exposed. In order to resist the raiding pirates, he died in that battle and is currently buried in "

Lin Jingheng didn't listen to what he said, and there was a "hum" in his head.

At this time, a team of guards who were responsible for guiding them came to send and receive, and the leader was Lu Bixing's student cockfighting.

This stupid big boy who likes to solve problems with his fists, when he saw Lin Jingheng like a mouse and a cat, he was so nervous that he couldn't say a word, but now it has grown, and the last radian on his face that belongs to a boy has disappeared. Showing a clean and neat mandible line, it seems to be a little higher than in the past, with firm eyes, and salutes Lin Jingheng: "General, please come to me, the safe cabin for passing through the wormhole is at the bottom of the heavy armor"

Lin Jingheng interrupted him abruptly: "Where is the command center?"

cockfighting:""

"Sir," Zhan Lu said, "we are about to arrive at the wormhole area of the Heart of the Rose. Although the expedition team has achieved some results in wormhole research in recent years, there is still a lot of risk to travel through it, and we need you."

"Get out of the way!" Lin Jingheng pushed aside the guards in front of him.

The Ten Silver Guards who were left behind looked at each other, never seeing such a rude general.

Thomas Yang blinked: "Oh, yes, the Director Lu said just now that he is the posthumous son of General Lu Xin, so that's not the general's."

Poisson Yang looked at him with caring eyes.

"Brother," Thomas Young said innocently, "Why are you staring at me again?"

The structure of the heavy armor is similar, without anyone leading the way, Lin Jingheng can also find the command center.

All the staff here are in good order, preparing to pass through the wormhole, and are carrying out the final debugging. Most of the heavily armored space soldiers are new faces, but they are obviously trained in war, not new recruits just pulled out from the military training base. This Eighth Galaxy Self-Defense Force only showed a glimpse, and it has long been seen that it is no longer the random piece of soldiers that were randomly assembled back then.

Old people, some are old, some are gone.

For more than ten years, a huge object was suddenly smashed in front of the unprepared Lin Jingheng. For the first time, he felt the cruelty of time.

It seems that even the smell of the air is different.

Lu Bixing's cold and unpredictable face kept flashing before his eyes.

The chief is gone, and the one-eyed eagle is gone. How did he live after so many years

How did he learn to be indifferent to emotion and anger, and how did he grind the Eighth Galaxy into such a shape

Has he tried to find someone to talk to as comfort

In the end, this question flashed through Lin Jingheng's mind, and he was ruthlessly overturned by him.

For decades, he has fought with fate to the death and he is seldom afraid, but at this time he does not dare to face this problem. Because it is like two knives hanging on his heart, if he answers "yes", one end will fall, and if he answers "no", the other end will fall again, and there is no whole body.

Zhan Lu was chasing after him and chattering about something - it was only he who had not changed, as always, nonsense.

Guards and staff came over and tried to tell him the dangers of going through the wormhole. But, who can stop Lin Jingheng

The countdown to the approach of the wormhole kept ringing in the mecha. Lin Jingheng turned a deaf ear and broke into the command center directly.

In the command center, the secretary was still the one that Chief Edward had used back then. He had put on his space suit, and was wearing a hood to fasten the safety cable. When he saw Lin Jingheng, he gestured without saying a word—

On the second floor, the door to the chief's office was closed.

The effect of No. 6 soothing agent came like a gust of wind and receded like a tide. Lu Bixing was completely wooden, his body was like a dull machine, and he was vaguely confused. He locked himself in the office, as if trapped in In an inexplicable dream, I couldn't remember where I was, and was manipulated at will by the robotic arm stretched out from the medical cabin.

The door of the office suddenly opened, he raised his head slowly, and stared blankly at the man walking towards him, motionless.

At this moment, the mecha arrived at the time-space turbulence zone, and the imitation gravity system suddenly failed. Everyone's feet were off the ground. Lin Jingheng stumbled, lost his balance for a moment, and floated to the door holding the door panel.

Lu Bixing's pupils shrank suddenly, he pounced on him, and grabbed him—
