City of War Soul, temporary command center.
The torrent of people flooded the main city of the administrative star, and the mercenaries shouted loudly, dividing the living and professional residents into teams, and the staff led them to migrate.
"All people are soldiers! Boy! Where do you want us to go!"
"All stay! Fight together!"
"This is an order!" a regiment leader shouted impatiently: "Go to the underground bunker! There is a chance for you to fight!!"
In the rainstorm, Opal pushed away the people in front of him and went to the reporting office. The staff immediately said, "Another one to report! You are responsible for covering them from entering the underground bunker! Don't let the children run out!"
Opal received the pass order, and the City of War Soul has been completely blocked. He shouted: "Follow me! The people of Yinyue City follow me!"
The crowd was in a mess, Opal cooperated with another mercenary named Yan to maintain order, and took them away from the central square.
"Opal?" Raymond's voice sounded in his ears.
"Raymond!" Opal hurriedly pressed the ear button communicator: "Where are you?"
Raymond: "The communication is a bit blurry. I heard that Zhanweiwu's side can't hold it anymore. It's still a while before we lift off."
Warlord Five is the fifth satellite of the Ares galaxy in the outer periphery of the galaxy. It is the main source of food and daily necessities for the entire Fierce Star. At this moment, it is being violently attacked by the Meteorite Legion.
Opal said: "I was assigned to protect non-combat occupations."
Raymond's voice was calm and gentle, and said, "I saw it, and the diary shows that this job is good and the score is very high."
Opal was silent for a while and asked, "When will you lift off?"
Raymond: "I have to go now."
Opal: "You must come back alive."
"I will." Raymond said: "If the ground war begins, you must protect yourself and don't be a hero."
Opal snorted a few times, then went to take the boy back into the team, and replied, "Am I like this? You! No! You can't go out! You are too young!"
"I'll be back safely." Raymond said, "See you later, partner."
Opal: "See you later."
"They've all entered the mecha! What are they still dawdling at over there!" the commander shouted: "Right now! Those who are afraid of death will go home and hug their wives! It's too late to regret it now!"
Raymond turned off the communication, tens of thousands of mercenaries sat in the mecha, the guardrail was removed, and the mecha rushed out of the launch port one after another, charging into the dark sky with splendid light, passing through the tangled thunder, becoming a magnificent scenery.
The people who went to take refuge stopped one after another and looked up at the zenith. Opal looked up and couldn't tell which one belonged to Raymond. He was fighting on behalf of their team.
"Go!" Opal roared in the thunder: "Don't fall behind! Follow along!"
The world was plunged into a long darkness. At the end of the road, there was only a beam of light standing above the ground. It was the super tree-shaped lightning rod on the fierce star, and the underground refuge was under the lightning rod.
The mercenary guarding here said: "How is the battle?"
Opal said: "I don't know! I'm from the Smoke and Sword Mercenary Group! What's your name?"
The three exchanged the mercenary diary and looked at it. The C-level mercenary Yin Yao was in charge of this refuge area. Opal and Yan just brought people over, and the current situation has not yet been determined. Yinyao opened the door of the underground space, and let Opal take the residents in. While passing the Opal, he counted, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five... In the end, two thousand one hundred and ninety-eight people entered, and there were still two less. indivual.
Opal said to Yan, "What's the matter? You didn't notice that someone left?"
"Wait a minute!" Yin Yao said: "There are fewer people, right? Don't care about the few people, notify the patrol team at the headquarters and send them over when they find someone."
Opal asked one by one, and it turned out that during the migration, two teenagers went to the war regardless of dissuasion, which was really troublesome.
The underground space is large, with drinking fountains and cyanobacteria food making machines. The non-combat residents are settled. Yinya closed the door, leaving a small door for entry and exit, saying: "How is it going outside? Zhanweiwu guard. Is it? Where's the king? Why didn't you see him announce the pre-war mobilization?"
"I don't know." Yan said: "I just came back from the Republic, and I came to answer the call as soon as I got off the spaceship. There was chaos in the Battle Spirit City."
"The mecha team has been launched." Opal said: "I partner in the mecha team, and we just came back from Rembrandt. What are we doing now?"
"Wait for the task to be updated." Yin Yao said, "Let's rest for a while, and take a look at the situation by the way."
"Azeroth is in the empire and hasn't come back yet!" Someone said, "Go and fight, don't worry about us."
"No." Opal said: "Our task at present is to protect everyone... Let me see, are you alright?"
Opal checked one by one, and suddenly heard a strange sound, looked up at the ceiling of the underground space, and asked, "What happened above?"
"Lightning rod." Yan explained: "Next door is an underground energy pool, and all energy pools in the country are connected."
Yin said: "It is said that after the ground war begins, all the lightning rods will be turned on to form a power grid that intercepts the landing of the Meteorite Legion. The voltage of hundreds of millions of volts is enough to electrocute them."
Opal said: "With such a complete set of equipment, you really don't have to be afraid of them. Drink some scented tea, which I bought from Rembrandt."
"Perhaps." Yan said: "I still hope that there will be no ground battles."
The three mercenaries shared Opal's scented tea at the door, staring at the pitch-dark world full of thunder and lightning. This was Opal's first encounter with a war between planets—although he had learned a lot from simulation games before: Space battles are divided into three parts: extra-galactic battles, intra-galactic battles, and ground battles.
Extra-galactic battles usually only take place between empires and republics that are well-equipped with military forces, they have well-established space carriers, and hundreds of millions of fighter jets, enough to expel all possible enemies from the outer galaxies.
And once the enemy really invades the inner planetary system, it will be a very serious matter. In a country like Liexing, where all the people are soldiers, all battleships will be sent out to prepare to intercept the enemy who invaded the planetary system. The entire planetary system is from outside to inside, and the two sides compete for air supremacy.
The life-sustaining resource planets 5 and the mineral planets 7 must have fallen into a hard battle now. If Cororin takes these two planets and starts to attack the main planet, the cruel battlefield will be on their heads. render.
At that time, all the troops, including the aircraft carrier, will be chasing and fighting around the outer atmosphere of the star, forming an encirclement. Once the mecha team guarding the outer space of the atmosphere is defeated, the enemy will release the battleship and make an emergency landing on the star, and the final ground will be destroyed. The battle is really coming.
When a war progresses to the surface battle of the administrative star, it indicates that the final stage is about to enter. The fall of the administrative star is like the capital of a country has been destroyed and the country is completely destroyed.
I hope it won't happen to this stage... Although Opal really wants to participate in the war, he has no desire to be a hero at the last moment. He does not know the strength of the Meteorite Legion, but the opponent has a space carrier and countless powerful fighters, and the building of the strong star, The scenery and people, under the bombardment of this artillery fire, I am afraid that they will suffer extremely tragic losses.
"The king hasn't come back yet." Yan murmured, "I don't know what's going on outside, no one will surrender."
"Impossible." Yinyao interrupted him and said, "Who will surrender? No one will. The king will come back."
Opal's Mercenary Diary has been refreshed.
"I have to go back to the City of War Soul." Opal said, "How about you?"
Yan said: "The above reminds me to stay behind."
"I'll stay too." Yin Yao said.
"I'm leaving." Opal took a deep breath and said goodbye to them: "I wish you a long life."
"Long life for a hundred years!" Yan and Yinyao exchanged mercenary salutes with him, and Opal entered the hovering car, shuttled between the boundless magnetic storms, and flew away close to the ground. In the rainstorm, thousands of huge silver trees stretched out and plunged into the sky, leading countless thunder and lightning to tangle.
"Raymond." Opal pressed his ear buttons and said, "How's it going on your side?"
There was no answer, it was too far, and there was a rustling sound of electricity. Opal opened the mercenary diary and put it in front of the car. The merit value on the diary has increased to more than 3,000 points, and it is still increasing extremely slowly.
Raymond is fighting... Opal watched nervously at the jumping score. Each score represented the destruction of an enemy. Was he fighting alone or with the Star Army
He began to imagine the scene of Raymond's battle, and he had to work hard. Opal parked the hover car on the side of the road. All the people in the City of War Spirits had already retreated. It's about to start! All return to the team! Go to the square! Go!"
With a buzzing sound in Opal's mind, he asked, "What happened?! Did Zhan Weiwu fall?"
"I don't know!" The mercenaries have already exploded. They were formed in the torrential rain. The lightning across the zenith illuminated everyone's faces. It has been less than six hours since Cororin invaded the Ares galaxy. , fell so quickly? ! To start a ground battle
The square is full of mercenaries asking this question.
Holding a huge laser cannon, Gray Wolf stood in front of the Battle Spirit Building and said loudly, "I'm afraid the five guards won't be able to hold it! We have to prepare in advance! Look at your mercenary diary for the team number, and find your own right away. Team, Azeroth is on its way back, seventy-two hours—just hold on for seventy-two hours! The Mercenary King will fight side by side with you!"
Opal said: "Where is the seventh team!"
"Here! Come to us!" a regiment commander shouted: "What level are you! Come with us and protect the Karena Dam!"
Opal returned to the team, full of unknown faces. Mercenaries from every corner of Lie Xing formed this mobile team. After the captain named him and wanted to take people away, he suddenly saw a purple mecha hovering over the central square.
"Begonia?" Someone recognized the purple mecha: "It's the Violet Star!"
Haitang stood on the shoulders of the mecha under the heavy rain, and said to the gray wolf: "Is Azeroth still back?"
Grey Wolf's face was full of rain, and he shouted at Haitang, "Wang is on his way back! His mecha can't jump! The star gate of the Ares galaxy was blown up! He came back through the star gate of the main star of Carina, and it is estimated that it will take dozens of times. Hours! You have to notify the mecha team to come back!"
Haitang's face was full of tears, and she said loudly: "Earth-to-air communication was interrupted by the Huanxing people! Zhanwei Qi fell! One of the twins died! Jamie died! He went out to fight in person and wanted to avenge his subordinates! He's going to attack Fierce Star! Let Rosen and Wrench take the spaceship to intercept the Meteorite Mothership!"
After a brief silence, the entire central square exploded, and the gray wolf roared: "Everyone sticks to their posts! We will avenge our comrades!"
Opal felt like he was hit with a heavy hammer. Raymond's mecha team was on the 5th War Guard. Someone behind him urged them to go quickly. Opal found the captain and said loudly, "No weapons!"
The captain shouted to him in the rain: "Go get it now! Come with me!"
"I want four light cannons for use on the spaceship!" Opal said.
The captain said: "Listen, I understand your mood, everyone sticks to their posts, understand?! We will win!"
Opal stood in the rain, with an indescribable feeling in his heart, anger, discomfort and hatred filled his heart.
"Go!" said the captain.
There is a lightning rod near the Karena Dam. The raging thunder between the heavens and the earth brings a powerful electromagnetic field. The armored vehicle stops by the dam, and the torrent rushes towards the distant lake like a roaring beast.
"Our task is to protect this energy needle." The captain said: "After the Meteorite Legion invades the atmosphere, the wrench will release all the energy and smash them into pieces. We must protect the ground defense device! Now everyone introduces themselves to the team. The division of labor here is convenient for me to arrange teams."
"Are you a long-range sniper? Yes, D-class..."
"You do it alone? Well done, all-round development... "
"What about you? You. Over there."
Opal has been looking at the mercenary diary in his hand. He looked up and said, "I am good at attacking and shielding."
"Okay, you play striker." The captain said: "E-rank..."
Opal said: "My ability is more than E-level."
"I believe in you." The captain hurriedly motioned him to calm down: "You are in groups of three, get acquainted with each other, and be responsible for guarding the perimeter. Sit together, only three minutes."
"Opal." Opal said.
"Julian," said a mercenary with an electromagnetic shield on his back. He pointed to the silent man beside him, who was wiping a big axe, and said, "This is old school, he's dumb."
Opal nodded, the hover car stopped by the dam, the captain got out of the car to distribute weapons, and Opal got an anti-air cannon and a flash machine gun. Julian received a heavy shield, and the captain shouted: "Hurry up! You can have a drink after crossing the bridge..."
There was a deafening sound from the zenith, and the whole earth was shaking.
"I don't think there is time for this!" Opal yelled, "Watch out for the attack on your head!"
A huge black mechanical monster entered the atmosphere of Fierce Star. Opal looked down at his mercenary diary, and Raymond's score was still increasing.
He is still alive... Opal was relieved a lot, the dark clouds spread out to both sides, showing the bow of the cosmic aircraft carrier, and the small near-earth spacecraft spread out in an instant, covering the entire sky.
Everyone in the team was ready, and the flying light bombs covered the sky. Opal set up a light cannon to guard behind the bridge, and pulled the trigger toward the large combat aircraft flying from the southeast.
A beam of light penetrated the two fighter planes, sending out an earth-shattering explosion.
They didn't even have time to talk. The mercenaries formed a circle towards the periphery. The captain rushed to the defense tower and turned on the energy shield. Opal turned his head and said, "Don't you want to activate some defense mechanism?!"
"I don't know!" Julian shouted: "Wait for the central signal to issue an order!"
Torrential light bullets flew along the ground, dozens of large fighter planes bombarded indiscriminately, flames and explosions shot up into the sky, the mercenaries hid in the defensive light curtain, fired guns outside, and the large fighter planes hummed. , turn on the energy protection layer.
The thunder light is still tangled in the zenith, and the dark world flashes into a piece. Sometimes it is a dazzling creation lightning that cannot be seen directly, and sometimes it falls into a long and ultimate darkness. Opal's eyes are full of phantoms, and he can't even tell where there is an enemy.
"The energy of the protective cover is running out!" A voice came from a height.
The captain shouted: "Keep it! You must keep it!"
Opal took out his sunglasses and put them on, dragged a laser cannon, and rushed out of the defense circle.
"Don't go out!" shouted the captain.
In all directions, there were flying fighter jets that concentrated their firepower to bomb the energy shield. Opal slipped on the ground, carried the laser cannon on his shoulder, and pressed the energy storage button firmly.
Bright white light clusters gathered at the muzzle of the cannon, strafing the incoming fighter jets along the road towards the southeast. The next moment, the light hit the center of the fighter jet, and the particle energy that enveloped it was darkened, and then bursts of vibrations, six light bombs. The gun flew towards the Opal all the way, and flew straight towards the ground.
The opal didn't move at all, the ground was shaking, and the explosion of the light bomb was getting closer and closer. It was too late. Julian brought a splash of water from behind, and raised the reflective shield to protect the top of the two of them. The explosion overturned On the ground around them, the fighter's energy shield was consumed with a humming sound, and it turned into a fireball in the air and rushed towards the two of them.
Opal's eyebrows were twisted into a knot, and he pushed his hands outward. The power of belief was pushed to its peak, and the fireball was pushed off the track, hitting another local fighter plane that came to support him.
Amid the series of explosions, a hand dragged him back into the shield.
The mercenaries rushed out of the energy shields under the lightning rods one after another, or held light cannons, while teammates used shields to withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of the air fighters, destroying their shields before firing the cannons.
Opal was dazed when he heard Julian shout in his ear, "Are you all right?"
Opal waved his hand, and Julian said, "Let Perry shoot, let's protect him! Do it again!"
The three rushed out of the shield again, and the air fighters crashed one after another. The entire sky above the star was full of giant fighters. They destroyed dozens of them, but the enemy's backup did not decrease but instead increased.
"If you don't open it, you will all die here!" Someone yelled.
"The command did not give an order!" the captain shouted: "Can't drive! Hold on for a while!"
Opal wiped the water on his face and saw the fighter jets turning in the distance. He dragged his sword and rushed to the side team. He knelt down with his sword and knelt on one knee behind the team. The surprise attack, buzzing light bullets flying around, blocked by the metal sword body, the explosion was deafening, the unknown person shouted: "I owe you a life!"
Opal yelled: "You're welcome! Let's live to the end!"
There were more and more fighter planes, the lightning rod energy shield was destroyed, and charred corpses were covered everywhere. The mercenaries retreated to shrink the defensive circle, and many people were shot and killed on the spot.
Opal panted violently, his pupils contracted slightly, and then there was silence between heaven and earth, and Lie Xing's time seemed to stand still for a short time.
In the next second, all the thunder dissipated, and the lightning needle made a harsh electric sound, humming, and a white light shot straight into the sky.
Strange changes have taken place on the entire surface of the fierce star, and tens of thousands of lightning rods began to release their long-stored natural electrical energy, glowing with dazzling white light.
Twelve arcs spanned tens of thousands of miles and slowly rotated at the top of each lightning rod. The earth was covered by a huge electrical grid and slowly rose to the sky. The long dark night was illuminated by the light of lightning like day, and the air was ionized. , All the fighters of the Meteor Star Legion withdrew to the high altitude, and those who were hit by a little arc would explode into fragments in mid-air, and then the fragments exploded, large and small, and were completely destroyed by electricity.
The entire Fierce Star Earth gave out deafening cheers!
"Clean up the battlefield! Don't let them die outside!" the captain shouted.
The fighter planes retreated to an altitude of 10,000 meters, but they were still shooting at the ground. The explosions continued one after another.
Opal leaned tiredly on the muddy ground in front of the sentry, his whole body was muddy, the captain came to count, seven people in the fifty-man team died and sixteen were seriously injured.
No one groaned, and all lay quietly. The captain checked the injuries of his companions. Opal gasped for a while and got up, and asked, "Is it serious? Let me see. What should I do now?"
He had mud all over his body and didn't dare to touch the injured patient to avoid infection. The captain said, "Get ready and rest for a while, and wait for the headquarters to update the mercenary diary."
The sky and the earth are full of electric light, and the light bombs are tilted down endlessly like a torrential rain. Lie Xing has experienced such a war and is completely abolished.
"No medical equipment?" Opal asked.
The old school was lying on the ground twitching, his hand was half broken by the light projectile, and the cross section was burnt black and smelly, and only a little flesh was left.
The captain said: "No, there are too few radiation therapy machines."
"I have one on my spaceship, go and bring it over?" Opal said.
The captain was silent, Opal said: "There are no new orders now, you see, they have already withdrawn."
Everyone looked at the zenith, the fighter group was raised again, and the firepower was evacuated a lot, not like it was dense at the beginning, Opal said: "Captain!"
"You go." The captain said: "Send someone to follow you."
Opal said: "No, I'll go by myself, I'll be right back."
Opal got into the maglev car, leaned on the seat back, let out a tired sigh, changed the electronic steering to manual driving, and rushed out of the rain.
There were a lot fewer light bombs, but from time to time huge beams of light shot down at the ground. Opal didn’t dare to raise the suspension car. When driving against the ground, it was overturned by the explosion several times. The most violent one was the maglev car. The air wave lifted off the runway and fell into a quagmire.
The first time he fought against Lie Xing, the coefficient of gravity was already very high, and Opal was so tired that he almost fainted. With a roar from the maglev car, the force of belief swept it across and rolled on the circuit.
He stumbled into the car again and drove towards the central apron. The ground of the star is full of explosion craters, and the public facilities have been destroyed. Through the power grid, you can see the battle situation on the zenith. The mother of the Meteor Legion The ship has left the atmosphere, and is gathering energy outside the space station, firing towards the ground of Lie Xing.
Every shot was earth-shattering, and when it landed, it exploded into a pitch-black explosion crater.
Sunlight City was nearly half destroyed, and the City of War Soul was shaking in the energy shield.
Someone in the distance beckoned by the side of the road and shouted, "Stop!"
"Where are you going!" A red-haired mercenary rushed over with a sword on his back and said anxiously, "Stop!"
Opal rolled down the car window, wet hair on his forehead, and replied, "The tarmac! Where are you going!"
"Take us a ride! Where's the wrench!" The redhead shouted back, "Call the wrench here! It's too late! Don't wait for Lily's spaceship!"
Opal recognized that he was from the Twelve Nebula Mercenary Group and asked, "What are you going to do?!"
"Outer atmosphere defense battle!" Hong Mao said: "We're going up..."
"We're going up to send him a program virus bomb." Wrench got into the car, fell into the back seat, and said, "Great, I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here, let me rest for a while."
Opal reversed and rushed out of the giant net of lightning and magnetic storms, heading for the tarmac.
"How's the battle going?" Opal asked.
Wrench said: "The king is still on his way back. One of the Sunshine twins died and the mechas were destroyed. Rosen took the battle fleet to the sky to intercept the armed forces of the Meteorite Legion, and Urka brought the mecha team to prepare to return to the main star. , Grey Wolf is leading the ground battle, Haitang is on the fifth battle guard..."
Opal said: "Will we win?"
Wrench said lightly: "Of course, winning is a matter of time. I'm going to infiltrate the opponent's mothership now, destroy their control center, and paralyze Cororin's command system. There is something amazing on his spaceship. Can't let him drop it."
Opal said: "What is it?"
"Acid beast." Wrench said: "The ability to reproduce and split is too strong. One acid beast can eat the entire fierce star... I don't know where he got this thing."
Opal: "There are only two of you? I'll go with you."
Wrench said: "No need, thank you for your kindness."
Hongmao said: "Stand by your post, what are you going to do on the tarmac?"
Opal remembered the radiotherapy machine and said, "I can help you...just wait for me..."
Wrench said: "No, stay here, this is an order."
Opal drove the car directly into the tarmac, which was empty, with only a few patrol robots and a few spaceships not equipped with light cannons, and Times VI was still there.
The dome of the tarmac was pierced through a large hole, and the rain poured down from the sky.
Wrench ran in the rain with a suitcase to a group of people in the corner who were overhauling a small unmanned fighter jet—the downed weapon of the Meteor Legion.
"Can it be used?" Wrench said: "Don't tell me it will go wrong at this time."
"It's been refitted!" a technician said: "There can be one person in the cabin, so let's go."
Opal understands that they have to rely on this thing to infiltrate the mothership of the meteorite. If the wrench really succeeds, the situation will be reversed immediately.
"Wrench! I wish you all the best!"
"Wrench! Come on! Bring our technicians to fight together!!"
The mechanics stepped forward to hug the wrench, the wrench was silent for a moment, and then said: "Opal."
Opal said: "Wrench, I wish you a long life."
Wrench nodded and said, "If you see Lily, help me with a word. I haven't seen her for a long time."
Opal said: "What."
Wrench said, "Tell her I love her, brethren, goodbye."
The wrench entered the unmanned fighter jet, the surrounding wiring fell, and Opal said: "He went alone?"
"I'm in charge of covering!" Hong Mao said, "Are you ready?!"
He ran to the spaceship of the Twelve Nebula Mercenary Corps, controlled the flaming red lips to lift off, and deployed sixteen large weapons, followed by the unmanned fighter jet and flew out of the huge hole in the dome.
Opal and all the technicians saluted towards the zenith and watched them go away.
"Are there any weapons that can be modified?" Opal asked.
There was a big explosion in the distance, the ground trembled, and a technician said: "There are four miniature light electromagnetic guns left, what do you want to do?"
"Install it on my spaceship." Opal said: "E7! Drive the spaceship over!"
"No problem, but you have to go back to the City of War Spirits for support." The technician said: "These electromagnetic guns are for the lava mercenary group, let me see... The spaceship made by the empire?"
"Make do with it." Another technician went into the cabin to debug the wiring, and Opal said, "Is it okay for me to take someone else's weapon?"
The technician replied: "Their spaceship was destroyed, and the whole regiment died."
Opal sighed. After a short while, the weapon was adjusted. He steered the spacecraft to the ground and left the apron.
The meteorite mothership in space is still firing super light cannons, and each cannon will cause a huge explosion.
This time, there was a lack of protective shields near the lightning rod, and the mercenaries could only use their bodies to form a line of defense against the unmanned combat aircraft. The light bullets flew between the shield and the reflection bunker, and the captain shouted: "Damn! Hold on!"
"Can't stand it! Everyone died together!" Someone shouted.
An arc of light ran through the fighter closest to the lightning rod tower, and the chain lightning jumped between five or six fighters, eliminating their energy shields. Opal resolutely pressed the fire button again, and the energy was drawn to the end, and the second shot directly Destroyed all drones.
The blast blew up all the mercenaries, and in the quiet world, heavy rain fell.
Someone struggled first and shouted, "Helps are here!"
The captain said: "Is it reinforcements?! How is the headquarters?"
"Me!" Opal said: "The wrench is going to blow up the enemy's mothership!"
The captain said: "Move the injured brother onto the ship immediately! The headquarters has sent a communication! All leave here! After this wave of offensive, go back to the City of War Souls and stand by!"
"Don't care?!" Opal said.
"Listen to the order!" said the captain.
The mercenaries put their seriously injured companions and corpses on the spaceship, and Opal asked them to operate the radiation therapy machine and turn around to go to the City of War Souls.
