Planet S36 is the outermost planet of the federation's planet, and it is also an important military station for the federation to defend against the Zerg. The person in charge of stationing here is the federation general Sheng Tianxing.
Non-soldiers are not allowed to enter the military garrison, but when Sheng Heng was young, he would come here for a period of time every year. According to his father, every boy in the Sheng family has been a soldier of the Federation since birth.
But such a place where he can often set foot on since he was a child, Sheng Heng has not been there for many years, ever since his hand was accidentally injured, the doctor diagnosed it as irreparable, and the moment he could no longer become a mech warrior, Sheng Heng has never been there again. been here.
Returning to this place after more than ten years, Sheng Heng can hardly feel a trace of strangeness. This planet, this base, and this starry sky are the places he dreamed of when he was a child.
"Second Young Master." A young man in military uniform appeared behind Sheng Heng.
"Brother Zi'an." Sheng Heng shouted with a smile.
The person who came was Qiu Zian, a college classmate of Sheng Heng's elder brother Sheng Zhuo, and now he is also the deputy head of the First Legion where his elder brother belongs.
"The leader is already on his way back. Send a message and ask us to meet him. Do you want to come together?" Qiu Zian asked.
"Brother is back? Going to meet him, are you in any danger?" Sheng Heng nervously took a step forward.
"Don't be nervous, it's okay." Qiu Zi'an reassured, "The process of going to the outer domain to sweep the Zerg this time went smoothly, but the number of Zerg exceeded expectations, resulting in insufficient energy supply, so we let us pick it up."
Planet S36 is the front line against the Zergs. On the outskirts of the base, you can meet small groups of Zergs for investigation at any time. It doesn't matter if you meet these small groups of Zergs on weekdays, but if the mechs have no energy, they will be in danger.
It was also because of this that Sheng Zhuo considered that he sent a message in advance to let Qiu Zian go to meet him, in case there was an accident.
Sheng Heng relaxed when he heard that his eldest brother was fine: "You guys are on a mission, can I go too?"
"Of course." Qiu Zian said with a smile, "I heard from your brother that you are now considered a sixth-level mecha warrior. The son of the Sheng family was born to be a fighter of the Federation. Now you can pilot the mecha again. Don't you want to do it?" Are you a soldier?"
"Of course." Sheng Heng said immediately.
"Then what's the point?" Qiu Zian said.
Sheng Heng nodded heavily, followed Qiu Zian and walked out of the base, then drove the mecha soaring into the sky, and flew towards space.
Because it was just for the mission, Qiu Zian didn't lead many people, including Sheng Heng, there were only five people in total. Among the five people, except for Qiu Zian who was driving a level 7 mecha, the rest were all level 6 mechas. But flying all the way, the black soul followed closely behind Qiu Zian's mecha.
"I heard from your brother that although your Black Soul is a level 6 mecha, it only has the performance of a level 5 mecha after being modified. How can it fly so fast?" On the way, Qiu Zian asked curiously.
"There are two systems in Black Soul, one original system and one mimic system. I am using the original system now." Sheng Heng explained.
"So that's it." Qiu Zian nodded, and before he could say anything else, a prompt for communication suddenly sounded in the cockpit.
Qiu Zian glanced at the source of the signal, and connected with a smile: "Leader."
A young man in military uniform with a face five points similar to Sheng Heng appeared on the screen. This person was Sheng Zhuo: "How long will it take for you to come here."
"Twenty minutes." Qiu Zian replied.
Sheng Zhuo frowned, and was about to speak when the screen shook for a while. The place Sheng Zhuo was in seemed to be hit by something, and the vibration signal became unstable.
Seeing this, the smile on Qiu Zian's face faded: "Head, have you encountered an attack?"
"We met a small group of Zerg scouts, and there were three level 8 Zergs inside." Sheng Zhuo said calmly without any trace of panic on his face.
"Do you still have energy?" Qiu Zian asked nervously. Wasn't it because Sheng Zhuo and the others didn't have enough energy for him to come out this time
"The energy of the mecha is exhausted, and there is still a part of the battleship."
"How long can it last?"
"Fifteen minutes, I will try my best to go to your side and meet up halfway." After finishing speaking, Sheng Zhuo hung up the communication.
fifteen minutes? That is to say, there is still five minutes left, three eighth-level Zerg, let alone five minutes, as long as they find a chance, they can tear the battleship apart in one minute.
Qiu Zian opened the team's internal communication, and quickly said: "The leader encountered Zerg attacks in front, I will go to respond first, and you rush over quickly according to the coordinates."
"Yes!"
Qiu Zian was driving a seventh-level mecha, and his flying speed was originally faster than other people. As soon as he accelerated, he immediately stood out and flew towards the depths of the starry sky.
And almost at the same time Qiu Zian's mecha flew out, the mecha that had been following behind him also suddenly accelerated and rushed out. The mecha turned into a streamer and flew rapidly in space, unexpectedly falling far behind Qiu Zian's mecha.
Qiu Zian detected the mecha following him, took a look and found that it was a black soul, and was immediately surprised: "Sheng Heng, why did you catch up?"
"I'll help." Sheng Heng said.
"There are eighth-level Zerg ahead, you can't handle it." Qiu Zian has regretted it now. He thought it was just a simple response mission and there was no danger, so he wanted to bring Sheng Heng, who had been away from the battlefield for a long time, to practice, but he didn't want to. Three eighth-level Zerg were killed halfway.
Sheng Heng is only a sophomore, and he is still driving a level 6 mecha. When he meets a level 8 Zerg, he will not be an opponent. Even if they are frontline fighters who have experienced many battles, if they drive a sixth-level mecha against an eighth-level Zerg, at least three mechas must be contained together.
"I'm going to deliver energy blocks to elder brother." Sheng Heng said.
"Do you have an eighth-level energy block?" Sheng Zhuo is an eighth-level mech fighter. If he can equip the energy in time, the eighth-level Zerg is no match for him at all.
"Yes, what I'm equipped with now is the eighth-level energy block." Sheng Heng said.
Good guy, a level 6 mecha equipped with a level 8 energy block is really a luxury, no wonder it can catch up with my speed.
"Okay, after a while, I will restrain the Zerg, and you find a chance to get on the battleship to deliver energy blocks to the leader." Qiu Zian arranged.
The two stopped talking, and ran with all their might.
Qiu Zian was the first to arrive at the battlefield. Although Black Soul was equipped with a high-level eighth-level energy block, the sixth-level mecha was always a sixth-level mecha. After a long time, Qiu Zian pulled him away.
When Qiu Zian arrived, one minute had passed since the fifteen minutes Sheng Zhuo said. In the void, a silver-white battleship was passively dodging, with more than a dozen huge Zerg chasing after it.
Among them, the three Zerg were particularly huge, almost half the size of a battleship, and were waving their dark front claws, slashing at the fleeing battleship ahead.
Seeing this, Qiu Zian was horrified, and without even thinking about it, a particle cannon blasted past.
The eighth-level Zerg suffered pain and turned to look in Qiu Zian's direction, but instead of chasing after him immediately, they sent out a series of mental waves, ordering the three seventh-level Zerg to fly towards Qiu Zian's mech.
When Qiu Zian pulled out his melee weapon and was about to kill him, Sheng Zhuo's communication came in again: "You can't break through the siege of the Zerg by yourself. The battleship still has some energy and can fly quickly. You cover us and drag us behind." Reinforcements are coming."
"Yes." Qiu Zian put away his melee weapons, and at the same time turned on all the long-range weapons equipped on the mecha, and began to bombard the dozen or so Zerg from a long distance, hindering their forward speed.
Qiu Zian's fire bombardment still did some damage to the attack of the seventh-level Zerg, but the damage to the eighth-level Zerg was not that high. Finally, under Qiu Zian's constant bombardment, an eighth-level Zerg changed its target and rushed towards him quickly past.
"Be careful!" Sheng Zhuo reminded.
Qiu Zian was waiting in battle, and was about to distance himself when a strong mental shock wave hit him.
Qiu Zian snorted, his face turned pale.
He immediately opened the advanced sedative he carried with him and took it for himself, but just by drinking the potion, the eighth-level Zerg was already in sight.
With a "bang", the eighth-level Zerg swept towards Qiu Zian with its front paw.
Qiu Zian reacted extremely quickly, and then narrowly avoided the recoil of the particle cannon, but the outer skin of the mecha was still cut by the Zerg's front claws. The system test called the police, and the forearm of the mecha was seriously damaged.
Qiu Zian's face suddenly changed. If his forearm was seriously damaged, he couldn't be nervous. And his mecha is a level 7 mecha. If he can't fight in close combat, long-range weapons can't break through the defense of a level 8 mecha.
"Zian?" Sheng Zhuo's worried voice came from the communicator.
"Leader, I'll cover you, you go quickly, Sheng Heng is behind, and you should be there in a minute." Qiu Zian said quickly, as long as you persist until Sheng Heng comes over, the leader's mecha can recover its combat power up.
"Sheng Heng?! Why did he come here?" Sheng Zhuo's face suddenly changed. Why did Sheng Heng come here? The black soul is only a sixth-level mecha. Isn't it death if it meets an eighth-level Zerg
Qiu Zian no longer cared about answering, and tried his best to prevent the Zerg from approaching the battleship. Sheng Zhuo stopped asking about Qiu Zian's situation and ordered the battleship to move forward quickly. Only when they were safe, could Qiu Zian have a chance to escape.
The distance between Sheng Heng and them was not far at all, one of them chased forward, the other retreated, and soon saw the figure of the other party within the range of vision.
"Brother!" Sheng Heng subconsciously called out when he saw the battleship with the Sheng family logo.
Sheng Zhuo's communication also came in at the same time, he didn't care for a long time, he shouted anxiously: "Get on the battleship, give me the energy block."
At the same time, a group of dazzling flames came from the image of the black soul looking out.
"Brother Zi'an?!" Sheng Heng turned his eyes and saw that Qiu Zian's mech had been surrounded by two level 8 Zerg one after the other, and there was no way to retreat.
Before he had time to think about it, Sheng Heng activated the particle cannon on his shoulder that Yan Haocai had installed for him, and raised his hand to shoot two shots.
After a dazzling burst of flames, the Zerg that was about to cut into Qiu Zian's mecha was sent flying backwards by a sudden cannonball. That power is even stronger than the particle cannon of Qiu Zian's mech.
Is it the leader's star? !
Qiu Zian turned to the screen, and saw a mecha with a black body and only a level six.
black soul.
