MTL - Interstellar Fairy Tale-Chapter 51

The speed of particle light ripped apart the universe like a sharp sword. The semi-circular battle formation composed of countless huge warships surrounded the artificial celestial body of Royce. Including the military cadets and recruits, a total of 6,165 warships rushed from the open protective cover of the Kanon military fortress to the black universe. After leaving the fortress, the huge engine sound was surrounded by the eternal silence of the universe. Compared with the excitement and brazenness of the expedition in the past, at this moment, all Mars soldiers are full of uncertainty and confusion. The confusion of whether to die in the next moment has never been so clear before these soldiers who never knew what fear was.

They are the fearless Mars Space Fleet fighters, they are the elite soldiers of all the human beings in the Muse galaxy, they have never been so dazed, they will cast their blank eyes to the dome of the battleship, and see through the screen that has turned on the signal. Ahead, there, is the artificial celestial body Royce who is about to become the nightmare of all human beings in the Muse galaxy, being pulled by the alien invaders who create the nightmare, the pusher, and slowly moving forward.

It is ridiculous that this artificial celestial body that is about to bring death and disaster came from the hands of the human beings in the Muse galaxy. Is this something that prehistoric humans call destiny?

Nobody knows…

When did they go from powerful warriors capable of galloping the universe to fearful cowards? It puts them to shame! Red-faced and unable to find even an excuse to convince himself. Only the merits and tenacity of their ancestors pressed down on their hearts like a huge boulder. Yes, they are Mars men, born warriors! Even if there is an inevitable defeat ahead, you must move forward bravely and never back down!

Even if their bodies are torn apart by the scorching laser cannons, even if they are torn to pieces by the turbulent currents rolled up by the particle cannons, their bravery will remain forever in the universe!

Mars warriors put away the confusion in their hearts, their eyes reflected a firm light, they moved their strong legs, abandoned the teleportation bridge in the battleship, and began to run quickly in the passageway of the battleship, the sound of breathing was close to their ears, The heartbeat is clearly audible, and when the hands are placed on the laser cannon operating panel, the honor and pride belonging to the Mars people returns to my heart!

Even if they will be buried here, even if they are left with no bones, they will never regret it, never back down, never!

Colonel Edgar's Sixth Fleet and Colonel Hansen's Eighth Fleet suffered heavy losses in the last battle with the Golden Empire's space fleet, losing nearly half of their battleships, and thousands of outstanding soldiers left their lives in the dark universe. among. In this attack, according to the instructions of the fortress commander Terry, the Third Fleet commanded by Colonel Apollo and the Tenth Fleet of Colonel Lord Lord served as the main force, while the Sixth Fleet and the Eighth Fleet were arranged on the flanks.

In the flagship of the Third Fleet Helios, Colonel Apollo stood in front of the huge screen, six correspondents sat scattered in front of three huge operation panels, and William, Apollo's staff, stood behind the Colonel, including the radar operator and the other two The staff, including the staff, formed the command center of the Third Fleet.

At this moment, Colonel Edgar, Commander of the Sixth Fleet, Colonel Hansen, Commander of the Eighth Fleet, and Colonel Lord Lord, Commander of the Tenth Fleet, communicated with Colonel Apollo through telecommunication, and the bust images of the three colonels were projected on the screen triangle. , the last part left, showing countless light spots surrounded by a celestial body as if shrouded in shadows, moving forward slowly, that is the artificial celestial body of Royce and the Golden Empire cosmos fleet.

"Colonel Apollo, what are you going to do?"

Colonel Hansen tightened his thick eyebrows, Colonel Edgar also put away his former ease, only Colonel Lord still had a calm expression.

"How to do?"

Colonel Apollo had his hands behind his back, his legs were straight, and the scar on his left cheek looked horrific because of his tensed face.

"As a soldier of the Mars Space Fleet, it is only death!"

Apollo's voice fell, and the three colonels on the screen fell silent at the same time. Invariably, he placed his hand on the side of his military cap, and used the standard Mars military salute to echo Colonel Apollo's words. In the face of such a powerful and unshakable enemy, no matter how clever or cunning it was, it would seem a bit redundant. to no avail.

As a determined soldier, at this moment, the only thing they can think of, and the only thing they can do, is "only to die"!

The final result, even if it is to die together, is another form of victory!

Next, Colonel Apollo, as the commander of this battle, once again emphasized the artillery attack on the flanks of the fleet and the movement speed of the main fleet. Colonel Lord nodded and handed over the Tenth Fleet to the command of Colonel Apollo. Edgar Colonel and Colonel Hansen also have no objection. Although Colonel Apollo has undeniable shortcomings and irritable personality, on the battlefield, he is an absolutely qualified Mars soldier! Perhaps it is precisely because of Apollo's iron and blood that he did not turn back, Terry, the commander of the Cannon military fortress, appointed Colonel Apollo as the commander of the battle before the fleet set off, and was solely responsible for the battle.

However, beyond everyone's expectations, before boarding the flagship, Colonel Apollo suddenly said to Colonel Edgar in front of the other two fleet commanders: "If, I mean if," Colonel Apollo paused and pulled After taking off his military cap, he continued: "If I die in battle, Colonel Edgar, please take command of this fleet!"

"Colonel Apollo?"

"We are all stubborn people, but behind my tough stubbornness is all the blood of soldiers. Colonel Edgar, your stubbornness can defeat death."

"Is this complimenting me?" Colonel Edgar grabbed his cap and turned to look at Colonel Hansen who was standing on the teleportation bridge: "Why do I think Apollo is mocking me?"

"No, he is indeed complimenting you."

Colonel Lord stepped onto the teleportation bridge, "Edgar, I also ask you, if my blood runs out, please take the young men of the Tenth Fleet away from this battlefield, if the two commanders of the entire fleet are not there It also means that there is no certainty of being unbeaten.”

"Hey!"

Colonel Edgar squeezed his military cap sharply, "Are these two guys blowing out of one nostril?"

Colonel Hansen patted Colonel Edgar on the shoulder, but Colonel Edgar turned his head for the first time, glared at Colonel Hansen, and gritted his teeth: "Hansen, if you dare to fight with these two If you say the same thing, I'll break your neck right now!"

"Sigh..."

Colonel Hansen raised his hands, shrugged his shoulders innocently, motioned Edgar to look at the assembled team of the 6th Fleet's single-man fighter detachment, "I just want to remind you that your lovely adopted son is also on the team of soldiers on this expedition. Among them, if you really care about cherishing him as you show, you'd better listen to what Apollo and Lord say."

"damn it!"

"Edgar, I think that Commander Terry may have expected this situation, so the commander of this battle is Apollo, not you."

"Should I say thank you?"

"No, you have the right to scold these shameless guys. You know, sometimes it's easier to die than survive."

"Hansen, if you want to choose that easy path, I will never let you go! Think about goodwill, don't you think death is too extravagant for you and me?"

"I know."

Colonel Hansen corrected the collar, saved the flattened military cap from Colonel Edgar, put it on Colonel Edgar's head, and put his arms around Colonel Edgar's shoulder. , slapped Colonel Edgar on the back with a big hand, "Live, man, live! I'm still waiting for you to invite me to drink the wine your baby smuggled to you!"

"You bastard!"

Colonel Edgar slapped Colonel Hansen on the shoulder hard and breathed a sigh of relief.

Not far away, among the soldiers of the Sixth Fleet who were lining up to board the battleship, a black-haired boy inadvertently turned his head and looked at the four flagships that were parked on the tarmac as they walked off the teleportation bridge. of the four commanders.

Four tall and straight soldiers, four huge warships that seem to tear the air, that is the soul of the Mars people!

"What will be the outcome of this war..."

Shang Ping followed the team and walked towards the one-man fighter jets that were neatly parked on the side of the apron. Looking at Captain Dore who was giving orders loudly, Dore's rough voice was gradually drowned out by a louder sound amid the sound of the engine being started gradually, and he could only vaguely discern what he was saying from the shape of his mouth.

Shang Ping clenched the helmet of the single-person fighter pilot with one hand, and involuntarily looked in the direction of the Third Fleet, looking for the tall blond boy among the group of figures also wearing black uniforms.

Austin, I will remember your words, there are only enemies on the battlefield besides comrades!

Austin South followed the order and stepped onto the flagship. At the moment when the ship's door was closed, the blond boy suddenly noticed a familiar but somewhat unfamiliar gaze. He followed his feeling, but saw nothing.

Shang Ping, is that you?
