The Vast Starry Sky, Where Is Home

(Congratulations to the new protector "tadashi"!)

Zerg Race Behind the group, a giant bug arrived belatedly. Perhaps because of its huge size, the movement speed of the beetles carrying it was reduced by more than half.

The vestigial wings split on both sides, and the fat and bulging abdomen lay lazily behind it.

This is a Plasma Bug that is slightly larger than the previous four.

The timing of its appearance was so clever that it just avoided Nova Nuclear Explosion for a moment.

Subsequently, Zeger rushed into the vacuum zone again, and the fat Plasma Bug stepped into the deep pit of Red Plains that was still warm.

At this time, the Federation troops on the ground had disappeared, and the Star-borne Ship No. 2 floating on the periphery became the biggest target. However, except for the stone bullets spewed by Cliff Bug that could occasionally touch the bottom armor of Star-borne Ship, the rest of the Zegs continued to charge under unknown and mysterious command.

The biggest shortcoming of these Zegers has finally been exposed, that is, they have no air superiority capabilities!

However, this shortcoming was obviously also known to the unknown leader, and the follow-up Air Force was coming quickly.

What they have to do now is to leave these two Star-borne Ship behind.

The Plasma Bug fell to the ground, turned around awkwardly, inserted its four pairs of appendages into the soil, and tried to lift its heavy tail.

A faint blue light began to flicker from it, and soon the abdomen swelled up like air.

The blue light became stronger and stronger, and the tip of the tail even began to crack.

In five seconds at most, the violent giant plasma ball inside will spurt out.

Judging from the size of this Plasma Bug, the volume of the plasma ball will definitely exceed that of any previous one.

The tail has been split to a diameter of more than 2 meters and is still opening.

That bright light finally caught the attention of Lin Hao and all the officers in the command room.

"Major Zheng Rui and the others are about to enter Star-borne Ship."

"Major, look, what is that?"

"The blue there is getting brighter and brighter!"

"How is that possible!"

"How is that possible!"

When the screen was enlarged and the scene there was clearly seen, it was like an electric current passed through everyone's back, and all their hairs exploded.

The huge insect's tail was raised high, as if aiming at the sky.

And in the sky...

Now only Star-borne Ship!

"Why is this insect so big! Wasn't it completely eliminated just now?"

"Why is it this kind of monster again? We don't know what kind of creatures there are among Zege!"

"It's going to attack..."

"Star, carrier, ship." Lin Hao's tone was extremely dry.

Star-borne Ship, which is now hovering above the battlefield, is completely a fixed target.

"Major Lin Hao, we are about to land on Star-borne Ship." Zheng Rui's voice came.

"Major Zheng Rui, be careful on the ground behind you, there is a giant Zeg that can spit out plasma balls!"

Well!?

Zheng Rui, who was driving an air combat mecha, looked back and his eyes instantly locked onto the huge bug!

Without any hesitation, he raised his hand and saw a series of "Little Tomcat" air-to-ground missiles.

The six missiles rotated and crossed directly towards the huge Plasma Bug.

The tail had expanded to a diameter of nearly three meters, and at this moment the missile flashed past in the sky.

In just half a second, it exceeded the muzzle velocity of Mach 3.

The missile directly hit the Plasma Bug.

Boom boom boom!

Thick smoke covered the place.

Is it over?

A bright Blue Radiance suddenly appeared, and a ball of Azure Blue-colored plasma broke through the smoke and cut through the sky.

The ultra-high temperature plasma ball hit Star-borne Ship No. 2.

The huge energy shield activated by the ship instantly made a depression diagonally below, and the invisible force field was clearly outlined in the spread of Azure Blue-colored plasma.

The energy shield, which was enough to withstand the strength of level 2.5 weapons, only lasted for less than 0.1 seconds before shattering.

The plasma ball broke through the defensive force field, hit the bottom armor hard, and then exploded violently.

Plasma shoots out.

A hole with a diameter of more than five meters suddenly appeared at the bottom of the ship more than 300 meters away.

The red warning light flashed rapidly inside the hull.

In the command room of another ship Star-borne Ship where Lin Hao is located, in the three-dimensional structural diagram representing Star-borne Ship No. 2, the bottom isolation cabin suffered heavy damage, and there is an energy reactor near the isolation cabin.

"Report to Major! The insect's plasma ball interferes with energy very much. Reactivation of the energy shield needs to be delayed for ten seconds."

"Fortunately... we were eliminated by Major Zheng Rui."

At this time Mu Fan had been taken into the command room by soldiers.

I just heard this sentence from Lin Hao.

"Are these people blind?! Five more appeared behind them! What kind of planet is this? How could Plasma Bug appear on such a large scale?"

Black's voice suddenly sounded, and through the ship's surveillance system, it had discovered these abnormalities in advance.

So under Hei's secret operation, a red mark appeared somewhere on the holographic map!

Mu Fan pointed to that area, and the small sound silenced the whole place again.

"There are more there."

Five more huge Plasma Bug appeared!

They appeared so abruptly, as if they were emerging from the ground.

Zheng Rui, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, froze when he heard the message from the command room.

Those bugs emerged from the ground?!?

Zeger has opened the passage near the base?

Now the small transport ship has sailed halfway in, and twenty-six mechas are escorting it in the air.

If these huge monsters spit out plasma balls again, the Star-borne Ship, which has lost its energy shield, will be in danger!

Five Plasma Bug, an unknown crypt.

His own life, and even the future of the military, the group of teenagers, were in the ship behind him.

You can look down on them, but they are indeed the future of the military.

In this case, then...

The young major had a determined look on his face.

No. 1 Star-borne Ship has taken off and is in the command room.

Mu Fan looked up at Lin Hao again, just like his calm expression on the ground.

"Major, student Mu Fan, please apply for an air combat mecha attack."

Lin Hao looked at the young man in front of him whose eyes were filled with fighting spirit again, but shook his head.

"Among the two Star-borne Ship... there is no longer a mecha."

At this moment, it felt like I had returned to the days of following Colonel Qi Longxiang, and I was just an ordinary officer sitting among the crowd of Colonel Qi.

What would Colonel Qi do if he encountered this situation?

A heroic and indifferent man, he sees through every fatal situation with his wise eyes. Whenever he is in a desperate situation, he always speaks the words that lead to victory in a calm and outrageous tone——

"Don't tell me the number of casualties, I just want victory!"

"Tell the First Squadron that Federation requires their lives."

If we can win the final victory, then no matter how big the sacrifice is, it will be worth it.

If the hope of the military's future can be preserved, then no matter how great the sacrifice is...

While breathing, he made a careful decision and Lin Hao picked up the communicator.

At this moment, there was pain in his eyes, but his voice was firm.

"Starship No. 2, now Federation needs your lives! I, Lin Hao, ask you to preserve the last chance of survival for the seeds of hope for the Federation army!"

"So now, I order you to resist Zerg Race's air attack with all your strength and fight for Starship No. 1's final chance to take off!"

At the end, the pained tone finally turned into determination!

Everyone in the command room, including Mu Fan, did not expect Lin Hao to say such a thing.

The Tiger Hunter captain he was familiar with - Luo Jianjin, was on the No. 2 ship at the moment. The order given by Lin Hao now represented his death.

"... Starship No. 2 received, salute to the glory. Guaranteed, ship No. 1 will take off!"

After a brief pause, the voice from the other end of the communicator came, with a decisiveness unique to soldiers.

Mu Fan was exposed to such a cruel scene in a peaceful environment for the first time.

Even when he faced those Insect Swarm alone, he never despaired.

Because he knows that behind him are those companions and teammates he can trust.

But now, the order clearly tells them——

I will give up on you and ask you to die!

The replies from those soldiers had only one meaning - received.

Cold and cruel, with orders and prohibitions.

The world belonging to the military is so nakedly presented in front of Mu Fan.

He didn't know how he felt now. This was the first time someone would die generously to protect his group.

When the No. 2 starship in the holographic map began to slowly transfer its hull, a sudden sentence cut into the channel.

"I am Zheng Rui, please take off the No. 2 starship normally."

"I am to blame for the failure of this expedition. My fellow warriors, you are the best warriors, and Federation still needs you to continue fighting. Students from Dingchuan, please forgive me for my previous arrogance. You are the hope of the future of the army, so you must live well."

"So... please leave it to me after this break. Major Expeditionary Force-Zheng Rui, make sure Star-borne Ship lifts off normally!"

Calm words are like telling a common thing.

"The starry sky is so vast, where is home... Farewell." No one could hear the last murmur to himself, because Zheng Rui had turned off the audio.

After these words were spoken, there was silence in the command room and silence among the officers and soldiers on the ship.

Then involuntarily, first one person saluted silently, and then one by one, all students and officers and soldiers saluted.

And those Expeditionary Force soldiers who had just entered Star-borne Ship No. 2 burst into tears instantly.

****

ps: (To make a digression, Zheng Rui is the image that Dangdang has always wanted to portray. Only when the characters are flesh and blood can they come alive. Soldiers have always been a noble profession. No matter how the political situation changes, for the people being protected, soldiers who truly fight on the front line are always worthy of respect. When their loyalists need it, they have only one thing to do - Even if they have different personalities, even if they have shortcomings of one kind or another, they will form a high degree of unity of belief when the national justice requires it. Without the sacrifices of these soldiers, the territory would not be so large and the national strength would not be so strong. Even if there are moths and garbage under any circumstances, those who have never collapsed will always exist.
