Soul of Burning Steel

The meteors are falling, falling to the earth like a violent rain of fire, causing the seas to boil, and the sky trembles.

The Tehran Star Territory, the Tehran Star, an ocean world that was originally vibrant and gave birth to the intelligent life'Tehran people' like jellyfish, is now welcoming time and time again as if the world is extinct, the meteorite is flying across the sky. In between, I could hear the roar of countless air defense firepower and the hoarse roar of monsters.

"Damn, these chaotic monsters can't be killed at all!"

The side of the planet facing the sun. At this time, it was the dark night. An air defense soldier was using his flexible tentacles to control the firepower point, letting the smooth four-barrel fire shoot in turns, pulling out straight beams in the dark night. Psionic beams glowing with silver and blue colors rushed through the atmosphere, burning one after another strange chaotic monsters into ashes.

It can be seen that the thick clouds are torn apart by the remains of a huge black behemoth, and its corpse is still squirming and twisting, as if it is about to give birth to a new generation of monsters, but dozens of light streams are focused on it at the same time, directly making it whole body Wrapped in a layer of hot blue light. Even the chaotic monster can't withstand this kind of power. Its debris disintegrates and melts quickly, and then explodes into a dim fireball in the air, and the sewage-like debris falls like rain to the ocean and the earth.

There is no rest, no pause, even though the air defense firepower has been like a fine fishing net, covering the entire sky, even if outside the sky, there are countless warships and fortresses struggling to stop them, spreading gunfire like rain, but it is endless. Under the attack of Chaos, there are still a few caught fish that can penetrate the fire, and with their already ignited bodies, they fall into the turbulent sea of ​​Tehran.

However, even such a fierce battle will eventually come to an end-as the planet rotates and the night turns into daylight, chaotic invaders from outside the star field have no chance to bypass the defensive net in space and come to the star field. On the inside of the reverse, naturally, they can't come to the other side of the planet. Seeing the light of the sky gradually lit up, and the number of chaotic monsters invaded less and less, until Yu Wu, the tentacles of the air defense soldiers finally twitched, and the entire jellyfish was completely soft to the ground.

As a result of long-term high-intensity thinking and exercise, all the water that composes the air defense soldiers' bodies has become hot, like a hot water bottle, and the war has come to an end.

The air defense soldiers were not worried about the damage caused by the chaotic monsters that invaded the planet. On a life planet with an anti-chaos position, as long as the erosion of chaos does not reach the critical value, the natural environment can decompose all monsters like a corpse. The purpose of their surface defense forces is to reduce the invasion of chaos as much as possible. The value of, the real main force is still those void warships and fortresses in space.

"This is the first time this month... the nineteenth time?"

It's just that, unlike the fleet that can take the initiative to destroy the enemy, the surface defense forces that can only passively bear the enemy's attack are under great psychological pressure. After a good rest, the Tehran air defense force, whose water has cooled down, finally squirmed and got up, shaking him. Looking at the condensed water on the body, he muttered to himself in wonder and annoyance: "This month has just passed five days!"

The Tehran Star Territory, located on the front line of the Chaos Battlefield, is indeed a bridgehead against Chaos, but it has encountered nearly 20 impacts in less than a week. This number is too unimaginable... After all, the soldiers of Chaos are not endless, so futile. And the unstructured impact of the heavily guarded planet fortress is simply giving away a victory.

But the air defense soldiers did not usher in the joy of victory. On the contrary, his heart quickly sinks to the bottom like a rock falling into the water.

"If this goes on...the shells and energy are not enough..."

Tehran civilization, like most civilizations in the world, is an extraordinary civilization that has awakened psychic energy. Their conventional weapons, except for the universal psychic light spear, are of little use to chaotic monsters. Electromagnetic guns and fission weapons, and psionic weapons want to be used continuously, or the operator is an Omega-class (extremely) psionicist, or they must be connected to a psionic storage the size of a truck. Tank', as for the psionic engine... that thing has not been popularized enough to load every empty firepower point.

The air defense soldier knew very well that the single firepower he was at had only two psionic storage tanks, which were usually enough to cope with the impact of several months, but now, one tank has been used up, and the other tank has also been used for more than half. If this continues, tomorrow I am afraid I will squeeze my own psychic power and shoot my soul out as a bullet.

Of course, in the face of consumption like this, the chaos side will naturally suffer. Even if the entire Tehran star field defense line is now completely wiped out, the loss suffered by chaos is dozens of times more than normal battle damage. In a sense, this is completely worthwhile. Yes-it's just the high-level thinking. The soldiers at the bottom, the Tehran people whose home star is the Tehran star, don't think it's worth it, just like an air defense soldier. He is now waving his tentacles and swearing at the high-levels of the Guardians of the Galaxy Alliance.

"Damn it! What's the matter with logistics?! We have been fighting for five consecutive days, why haven't the supporting materials been delivered yet?!"

Although the air defense forces are strong, but there are not many curse words in the language of the Tehran people. There are soft words like "damn" and "so hate". What's more, the air defense soldiers also know clearly why the battle has been. The reason why the reinforcements have not arrived for the first five days.

It's all the fault of those people in the atrium!

The logistics materials responsible for the Tehran star field and the surrounding five star field defense lines are all transferred by the atrium star field. Recently, the leaf heads of the atrium star people did not know why they applied for the right to host a super-large ceremony from the alliance's high level. After a tense emergency meeting, the senior leaders of the alliance also approved the ceremony. This ceremony gave the atrium people nearly the highest level of authority to mobilize materials and took up a large part of the resources of the logistics system. As a result, the replenishment of some front-line materials that had not been much combated recently was postponed.

The Tehran Star Territory was indeed relatively peaceful some time ago, so the postponed ones were quite severe. No one would have imagined why the Chaos Monster was so ferocious for the stitched models. Therefore, even if the rear area is urgently transferred after receiving a request for help, it cannot be transferred in a week. .

"What is the "Void Gate", isn't it a revision of the "Void Anchor" commonly used by Chaos Monsters?"

Thinking of this, the air defense soldiers couldn't help becoming more and more angry: "There are also summoning'gods'-the group of atrium people are still alive in the Middle Ages? Even if their **** is according to the record, the highest output is nothing more than the level of the Void Mother Beast. Why mobilize the resources of several star regions?!"

You must know that although the Void Mother Beast is strong, it is not impossible to deal with. Apart from anything else, the main gun of the stellar base in the Tehran Star Territory has the power to severely damage the Void Mother Beast-embezzling materials from several front star regions. Whatever is done is fundamentally unstable, there is no effective control method, and the efficiency of the summoning ceremony is extremely low. It is a waste of money and regards the lives of all soldiers on the front line as nothing!

"I don't know if the summoning was unsuccessful... Damn it, if it succeeds, hurry up and support us! Forget it, it's better to have more psionic storage tanks. That thing is more reliable than any void creature."

The air defense soldiers have not figured out until now, what kind of void creature it is that will make the atrium people pay such a high price without thinking, and even bear great risks to carry out this level of summoning ritual, even if it is to risk a frontline defeat. The possibility must continue.

At this moment, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up in the sky - it lit up from the center of a distant star, and after flying in space for nearly ten minutes, it came to the outer end of the planet.

This light stream with a diameter of more than 3,000 kilometers illuminates all the stars along the path, leaving only a piece of pure white. The countless chaotic monsters hidden in the dark are illuminated by the light, manifested, and then turned into nothingness. , Small chaotic monsters that are no more than kilometers in size are basically burned out in an instant, but even larger, huge monsters over five kilometers can only withstand less than a second, and then just melt and evaporate.

"Stellar main gun!"

The air defense soldier immediately turned off his light-sensitive organs, and then hid in a dark box skillfully, avoiding being completely dried by the strong light, but he was still happy-using stars as energy, enough to hit the Void Mother in a single blow The main cannon of the base of the beast was fired, which was enough to instantly destroy the main force of the chaotic monster army. After such a blow, the impact of the chaotic monster would be greatly slowed in the next few days.

But soon, he was equally worried: "Now that the Void Mother Beast has not yet appeared, the main cannon of the Stellar has been used... Within ten days, even if the main cannon of the Stellar can be fired again, the power will be reduced a lot. We. One last counterattack is missing."

The light cannon, which has gathered stellar power and infused with endless psychic energy, did not care about the worries of a small air defense soldier. It solemnly swept through space, sweeping away all the chaotic monsters in eight astronomical units, and the remaining twisted monsters. Faced with such a mighty stream of light, he could only turn around and flee, without expecting any resistance.

Three minutes later, the light flow gradually faded, and the dark space returned to its original state again.

However, the air defense forces did not receive an order to "rest and reorganize" the combat headquarters. In the past, the main stellar artillery was launched, and after the surrounding enemies of the star field were cleaned, such an order would be issued, allowing the space fleet and surface defense forces to check losses, errors and omissions, and restore them. Physical and mental.

Losing the intensive and scorching air defense firepower, even if it was illuminated by the sun, the entire Tehran star also revealed a suppressive icy atmosphere.

For the general race, this is nothing more than a psychological illusion caused by the huge gap between the front and back, but for the psychic Tehran people, things are not that simple.

"Warning! A super-large-scale psionic leap is discovered-it is the Void Mother Beast!"

Not surprisingly, the air defense soldiers who hated their accurate predictions immediately heard this command from the combat headquarters: "The highest alert for all personnel, we will usher in the twentieth wave!"

"Damn it! Obviously everyone can guess that there must be a Void Mother Beast behind so many chaotic monsters, why bother to use the stellar main cannon!"

The air defense soldier raised its tentacles and patted it on the head desperately. It felt like it was going to be dizzy and turned into a plate of cold jellyfish: "Now it's all right, how can we deal with it!"

It's not just the air defense soldiers alone, even in the Void Fleet, there are countless people who took a breath or wailed.

At the foremost satellite fortress, with advanced psionic detectors, observers have seen that not far from the heliosphere of the Tehran galaxy, a circular dark green psychic fissure is slowly opening, accompanied by The psychic wave that is huge enough to shock the planets, a super-giant mother chaos with a star-shaped appearance and a length of more than five hundred kilometers, climbed out of the fissure, like a monster crawling out of hell.

Unlike most chaotic monsters with dark green or dark surfaces, the body surface of the mother sea star is a semi-transparent medium that is almost completely smooth. Layers of liquid psychic energy flows in this medium like blood vessels. Strong psychic resistance, with such a layer of defense, even the bombardment of the main artillery of the constant star can not severely damage it in one blow. This is the special spirit that the chaos party has fought with the Galactic Guardian Alliance for a long time. Can defend.

Even if it is not civilization, Chaos will correct itself.

And as the Void Mother Beast completely crawled out of the psychic fissure and came to the other side of the time and space, its five star-like tentacles opened a huge genital cavity at the end of its five tentacles, and countless new monsters flew out of it. Swim around the mother animal like a bee.

"There is no end!"

Of course the air defense soldiers could see the real-time broadcast on the screen. He couldn't help but roar, and then quickly checked whether there was anything wrong with the gun bore and the energy converter-what else could he do? The surface defense forces can’t do the same as the fleet. They will retreat if they can’t fight. Their final outcome is either being destroyed by their own people with star-killing weapons, or being transformed into a new void together with all the creatures on the entire planet. Mother beast...At that time, I am afraid that other alliance members could see a large chaotic jellyfish flying in a vacuum, or a jellyfish.

But it is different from the wailing and silent surface defense forces and the Void Fleet.

Tehran star, in the star base, in the command center of the combat headquarters, an old jellyfish that looks a little shriveled is communicating with an atrium person.

"As you can see, the chaotic monsters have evolved tactical awareness. As soon as they discover that we have used the star main gun, they will immediately call the mother beast to attack."

The old Tehran Commander calmly watched the Void Mother Beast that had just crawled out of the gap in the video. He whispered: "But sometimes, with a sense of combat, it is not as difficult to deal with as the beast... It has been drawn out, and then Down, it’s time to prove your own means."

"For your ceremony, the headquarters has spent a great price, don't let the alliance down and let down the trust in you."

"As you wish."

The polite atrium envoy nodded slightly. He took out a box from his arms. The box was simple in shape, just a metal box without any pattern and any logo. The envoy opened it without any fancy, revealing a small group of things behind. Yes, it's only the size of a palm, like a drop of silver light.

After that, the envoy just pushed the silver light gently-it immediately disappeared without a trace.

"……that's all?"

The commander of Tehran adjusted his sensory organs, but he hadn't reacted yet: "What did you just do?"

"that's all."

The world of the atrium people bowed slightly, and he said fanatically, "God's will has come."

"Next, is the end of chaos."

No one noticed this small silver drop at first. Only the detection radar on the flagship of the Tehran Void Fleet found that a small individual moving at 80% of the speed of light was advancing in a straight line-this thing is very It was quickly ignored as a radar error. After all, the main cannon of the star was fired just now. The huge psionic energy is still shaking the surrounding stars, and errors are normal.

But soon, while the speed of the original small individual slowed down, the mass began to become heavier and heavier-but when the fleet reacted, this abnormal subluminal material body had already expanded to an unknown reason. It's the size of a football, and its weight is more than a large battleship.

"What it is?!"

In just a few seconds of suspicion, the silver drop-shaped ball of light has flown nearly a million kilometers, passing directly through the entire battleship cluster, and waiting for the technicians to extract only from the flashing video In just one frame of the picture, the ball of light had expanded to about fifty centimeters in diameter, and densely packed miniature runes and various engine parts appeared around it, causing it to begin to leap.

At this time, the Tehran fleet could not catch the trace of the light ball at all. They could only detect that the psionic wave caused by the leap was constantly approaching the direction of the Void Mother Beast.

Soon, not a few minutes later-for the Tehran Void Fleet, which did not follow through on the leap, it was more than ten hours later, the edge of the heliosphere at the time of the 17th light of the Tehran star was already a full meter in diameter The silver orb appeared in front of the Void Mother Beast.

"Detection, large-scale quality fluctuations detected!"

At the Stellar Base, the combat headquarters command center, the detectives stared at the scene on the screen in shock. He raised his head and said in an unbelievable tone: "The Void Mother Beast Swarm is retreating!"

"They are running away?!"

It can be seen that on the screen, there are countless light spots representing chaotic monsters, and a huge ball of light representing the void mother beast is retreating - they are like a flock of tigers, fleeing in fear, this This is the first time that the people of Tehran have seen an unwise chaotic monster showing such a wise behavior.

"how can that be?!"

I can see that the water in Commander Jellyfish's body is about to boil, and the top of his head is steaming: "The Void Mother Beast will not run away even if it encounters the main cannon of the star, but will directly use the body to hard top-how can they suddenly collapse? "

"and many more……"

Thinking of a possibility, the old Tehranian turned his head and looked at the smiling atrium envoy.

The envoy from the atrium seemed to be smiling and silent, but in fact he was also at a loss.

"'God' didn't tell me it was like this..."

He was confused and thought: "Isn't it just absorbing the mass of stars, transforming it into a giant battle form, and then going to fight the Void Mother Beast... This is unreasonable."

But sometimes unreasonable is the normal state of the strong.

In the screen, the small silver dots that can be seen without zooming in or observing carefully, just like dust, hit the surface of the huge, starfish-like Void Mother Beast.

Immediately afterwards, there was distortion.

It can be seen that the moment the little light spot touches the mother beast, the translucent anti-psionic medium is immediately eroded and assimilated, and a layer of bright silver light is creeping and spreading, absorbing the flesh and blood of the void mother beast— -Numerous gears that seem to be alive appear, they rotate, and more structures are derived. Endless pipes, pistons, hydraulic devices, and even various angular geometric structures begin to form the flesh and nerves of the machine. It takes less than a few seconds. At the time, one of the five tentacles of the Void Mother Beast that was originally like a starfish has become another thing.

"His--lah!!!"

In the vacuum, there was a wailing that only reverberated in the spirit. The mother beast, which originally lived on erosion, suffered a reverse'purification' at this time, which can also be said to be a'predation' by a stronger person-able to see, The transformed tentacles, no matter how they look at this time, do not look like flesh and blood. On the contrary, they are more like a powerful mechanical arm, gears, levers, and various mechanical structures that God knows how to operate. Strong energy fluctuations.

There is no doubt that it has its own will at this time, so the tentacle turned its angle like this, and a whip was drawn on the face of the starfish mother beast, exploding countless flesh and blood.

"Gah—"

In the combat headquarters, the command center, and the silent hall, there was a half-scream from an observer who seemed to be pinched. Everyone stared at what was happening on the screen in shock. They looked at Void Mother. The beast's tentacles rebelled, beat himself up painfully, dying himself, and then his brain was almost blank.

Seriously, they couldn't think of such a dreamy scene in their dreams.

Are they really not dreaming?

"...My **** is on top."

The envoy in the atrium was the first to react. He swallowed (coolant) and raised his hand. He drew a Φ symbol on his chest: "Thank him for protecting us."

The Tehran Commander stood quietly in front of the screen, staring blankly at everything that happened on the screen, and the observing organ remained motionless.

At this time, it can be seen that the giant star-shaped void mother beast has curled up, looking like it was beaten into a coma, but the silver mechanical structure has not stopped spreading, it is still spreading continuously, and it will be huge. The Void Mother Beast decomposes into a hazy silver mist. It can be seen that countless gears, levers, various transmitters and microstructures are creeping in the mist, and around the silver mist, countless chaotic monsters are also like Being controlled by the brain, they rushed into the mist one after another.

"No, it's not control-it's gravity!"

An observer keenly discovered what was wrong, and she exclaimed: "The source of variable gravity has been detected! All the chaotic monsters have been sucked in!"

At this moment, the Void Behemoth has been completely decomposed and turned into a nebula-like fog cluster, and in the center of the fog cluster, a tiny but extremely dazzling light spot appeared, and this light spot shining for a moment. , It shrank rapidly, dimmed, and completely absorbed the extremely large silver cloud.

The light is distorted.

The chaotic and huge gravitational waves shattered all the detection lenses.

Only the last point of ~www.novelmtl.com~ remains on the screen, the ‘black dot’ that even the light cannot escape.

It is the faint but dazzling "dark star" that shines outside the galaxy.

-An amazing long silence.

After a long time, the commander of Tehran let out a sigh of relief, turned off the screen in front of him, and caused noisy and shocked discussions among all the staff.

He turned his head and looked at the atrium envoy who had the same shock in his heart, but still had to remain calm and calm.

"Although it is a bit obtrusive, but Mr. Milanar (name of the atrium envoy)."

The Tehran Commander said so, his tone seemed a little embarrassing, "Yes, that..."

At this point, the fluid in his body began to boil, and even the shriveled skin expanded for it: "The **** you believe in..."

"The **** you believe in...what is the honorable name?"
