The Star Knight

The rain fell again, and the City of War Souls had turned into a darkened ruin.

Only the main building still stands, the red mechs are back, they landed in different cities, and huge light screens were projected in front of the War Soul Tower, counting the casualties of the mechs and ground armies.

Light screens flew around the central square, and the list of fallen people flashed line by line, and each light screen was packed with mercenaries.

They shouted in the rain, or cried sadly for the sacrifice of their comrades, or walked silently and sat down.

Raymond crowded among the crowd and asked, "What about Opal?! Who of you have seen him!"

He anxiously asked the mercenaries. No one knew where Opal was going. Raymond trembled and stood in the cold rain for a long time. He turned his head and pushed away the people like a mad tiger, shouting: "Why Lien Chan Soul City has been beaten like this! Isn't it the safest on the ground?! What about my comrades?!"

"Don't be noisy!" Someone shouted angrily at him: "Who has no friends who died! Everyone feels sorry!!!"

Raymond closed his eyes. His hair was soaked in water, trembling painfully in the rain. He stood for a while, turned and ran to a small place, hysterically pressed his ear buckle and shouted: " Opal-Opal!!!"

"Over there!" a mercenary ran over and shouted, "Don't stand there, help check if there is anyone in the damaged mech! Hold the casualties out!"

Raymond stuck his neck and stared at him with red eyes, without a word, tears flashing in his eyes.

The mercenary looked at him for a while and whispered with red eyes: "Dude, don't do this, I know, I know, the king will take us to revenge and hold on."

He took a cup of coffee and handed it to Raymond, saying, "Drink something and you'll feel better."

Raymond closed his eyes and nodded.

"Come on," the mercenary said: "I wish you a long life."

Raymond took a deep breath, and someone shouted again: "There is no time to cry! Prepare immediately! Clean up the battlefield! Save the injured robe! Time is life!"

Raymond turned to join the team that inspected the damaged armor. He opened the cabin one by one, looking for the survivors. Some of the red armor had been blown into unrecognizable scrap iron, and the body was burnt black.

"Hey! Boy!" Someone said aside: "Are you actually sleeping here? You will be cut off by Azeroth!"

Opal was dizzy and dizzy, and the impact made him completely fainted. The inspector only woke up when he found out. The mercenary said: "Come out! You are finished! How can you be a deserter?!"

"Don't scold him, just a recruit, he must have done his best..." Some people persuaded: "Forget it."

Opal barely stretched out a hand, picking up the edge of the door. When Raymond turned his head inadvertently, he recognized his ruby ​​ring, and his breath stopped momentarily.

"He is not a Mecha team!" Raymond said: "Opal!"

Opal opened his eyes, and the prospect was still very chaotic, but he heard Raymond's voice, held out his hand, and hugged Raymond tightly. Raymond breathed out hard, and tears came out of his neck, dripping down his neck.

"He is not from the Mech team." Raymond explained: "He is from the ground armed forces. He is not a deserter!"

Opal: "The driver is Suiyan, he is dead, I... I was a bit dangerous at the time, I took over this mech..."

"Good job," the mercenaries said.

"Go rest." The technician said: "There is a radiotherapy apparatus and a doctor in the hall on the first floor of the War Soul Building."

Opal still posed for a walk, spit Raymond all over his body, and Raymond could not help but say that he carried him up and ran towards the building.

"I, I... what time is it now?" Opal walked down the ground, still staggering, and said, "Raymond, you're still alive, so good... I can't see anything, what's going on?"

"I want to ask you." Raymond put him on a chair, his eyes flushed, his lips trembling slightly, and he shouted incredulously: "What about your ear buckle?! What do you do in the mech!"

Opal: "Don't be so fierce! Earrings are off! Do you finally know how I felt last time?"

Raymond remembered the last time he was in the pirate ship, and immediately lost his temper.

"I'll show him." A nurse came to check Opal and said a moment later: "The concussion is a bit serious, there is congestion behind the brain, just remove it."

The nurse used an instrument to check and treat Opal. Opal rested on Raymond's thigh and said, "The shockproof system in the cabin is broken. Damn, I also lost a molar."

The nurse smiled and said, "The molars are going to wait for dental implants after the war. That's it. Big man, find a synthetic drink for your friend. He needs calories."

Raymond immediately went looking for food. After a while, he came back with hot water and coffee. Opal was looking at the diary of the two mercenaries.A total of 7,400 points were awarded for their merits, without any distinction, and no one could see more merits.Opal counted and wondered whether he earned more credits than Raymond, and suddenly understood the meaning of this mechanism, and laughed.

"I killed three enemy mechs." Opal said a little strong.

Raymond disagreed and said: "I killed 80 units."

Opal: "How about that!"

Raymond laughed, reached out and touched Opal's head, and gave him hot coffee. Opal took a few sips and noticed the traces of his vomiting on Raymond's coat, and wiped it awkwardly.

Raymond said: "You haven't eaten for seventy-two hours in a row, you have to find some food later."

Opal was even more embarrassed, and he only vomited sour water.

Raymond didn't mind, saying, "Who's the coat?"

Opal said: "People I don't know."

Opal remembered the sacrificed Fenyan, and said to Raymond. Raymond went to the clearing staff to explain Fenyan's relics and corpses. Opal fell asleep on the seat.

It was dimly outside, and the mercenaries whispered and exchanged their information. The S-class mercenaries lost two. Jamie sacrificed, the gray wolf was seriously injured and rescued, and the wrench was stuck on the enemy's mother ship.

"The wrench didn't come back?" Raymond whispered.

Opal closed his eyes and said: "There is no return to that mission, I send him to the spaceship."

Raymond nodded. The mercenaries were taking food in regiments. Raymond brought the food back, and the two of them ate gorgely. A broadcast was heard inside the War Soul Building: "Please note, warriors after the shift rest please According to the tips of your mercenary diary, plunge into the next wave of battle."

Opal Road: "Go, work."

Raymond took a look at Opal's hand and said, "The ring didn't work?"

"Who knows?" Opal urged: "Come back to the team, the mission of the mercenary is refreshed."

Lei Meng yelled, closed his diary to help repair the mecha, and Opal went to the temporary opening of the college office to report.

One hundred and twenty hours have passed since the beginning of the war. The sky gradually cleared, the clouds receded, and the sun shone on the devastated planetary land.The self-sacrifice of the wrench has won extremely precious rest time for the star, the command center of the meteor carrier has been abolished, and now all unmanned fighters cannot fight.

The Meteor Mecha team lost their aircraft carrier signals and could not support each other through radio waves. Azeroth returned. Colleen did not dare to attack again. The technicians repaired the ground signal tower under the escort of the mercenary. Rosen led all the armed ships outside. The atmosphere is remote.

"It's just right!" Lily sat at the door of the college office and said, "Little Ou O, help me stay here for a while. I have something to talk to Wang."

"Lily, I'm sorry." Opal said: "About the wrench..."

Lily said: "No, no need to say anything."

She was obviously emaciated a lot, and she took her scattered hair away and hugged Opal.

Opal said: "The wrench told me to tell you that he loves you."

Lily closed her eyes and nodded, the two hugging tightly.

Lily sighed and said, "Replace me for a few hours, I will come back immediately."

Opal succeeded her. This is a counter to find people. There is a long line in front of it. Opal said: "What's the name?"

The mercenary signed up, and Opal said: "The whereabouts are unknown. They should still be alive. Find them yourself."

The mercenary breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Thank you."

The names of the casualties have not yet been counted in the database. Opal dared not speak dead, except for the mercenaries who have confirmed the death, and the rest are the registration confirmation still alive and the unaccounted for.

"The whereabouts are unknown." Opal said: "Yes."

"Your comrade is still alive, in the city of Yingyue, the next one."

There was a riot behind the mercenary's line, and Opal said: "Don't fight! What time is it!"

A man who didn't look like a mercenary came over and asked, "Brother, is there any comrade-in-arms of the Dust Note Mercenary Group?"

"Dust notes... Let me see." Opal said: "There is no such mercenary group."

"Maybe it was renamed," the man said tiredly. "The leader is Faithley."

Opal was quiet for a while, afraid that this man was a spy, and asked, "Aren't you mercenaries?"

At the same time, he began to spy on the man's thoughts, and got some familiar fragments-the fountain in the central square and the once flower sea, a group of young men leaned against the railing and chatted, perhaps a long time ago, not a spy, but to find former comrades , He understood.

The man replied: "My name is Xiu. I used to be a member of the Dust Note Mercenary Corps, but later retired. I heard that my hometown was fighting and the king was assassinated, so... come back and see."

"Don't talk nonsense!" The mercenaries were violent, and Opal said: "Quiet! Let him finish!"

Xiu said: "Help me check Fissley."

Opal entered Faithley's name and began to search, saying: "His regiment changed its name and is now called Dust Memory. Faithley is in the Mecha team and has... honorably sacrificed."

Monk: "What about the others? Xiao An, Sauk, Alec..."

Opal: "In death, in death, in death... The last member of the team, Alec, was seriously injured in the ground battle and the rescue was ineffective. I am... sorry."

After a moment of silence, a mercenary touched his back.

Opal's eyes were a little bit red, and he said, "Next."

Xiu said: "No, wait, please help me with this... to the king."

Opal took the card he handed in and said, "It's a little money inside. It's the only thing I can do for the mother star."

"Why don't you come back to fight!" Someone shouted at him immediately. This sentence seemed to ignite some kind of blood sentiment among the mercenaries. Several mercenaries who didn't know each other pushed Xiu to the wall. Fight! Take up your weapons! Otherwise you will be in pain for a lifetime!"

"Don't move!"

Opal got up and was about to separate them, but a known mercenary stopped him, and Yin Nuo beckoned him.

"There! The report office is opposite! You only have to take ten steps!" a mercenary regiment shouted, "This group of us is asking for it! Take his money!"

Opal understood what was happening and handed over the card he had repaired. The head of the team tucked the card into the repair coat and took him to the opposite reporting office.

After the person left, Opal Road: "How is the situation of the underground protection zone?"

Yin Tuo said: "Everything is fine. Are my members there? Yuehui Tuan."

Opal said: "Everyone is alive, are you going to find them? They are all scattered, one in the twilight, two in Yingyue, and one in Turbulent Fort..."

Yintuo let out a sigh of relief and said, "No, what can I do?"

Opal saw Raymond coming back from the opposite side and was standing in line at the end of the line... What did Raymond run here to queue up?Sui Zhaoyin said, "Can you do it for me for a while?"

"No problem." Yintuo sat down happily and asked the mercenaries in line.

Raymond also wore a coat that was spit out by Opal. After the inspection, he was covered with oil stains. Opal was sloppy, and a body of mud had formed a lump on his neck.

"What's the matter, you come in line to find someone?" Opal said.

Raymond drew a small furry animal from the inner pocket of his coat-this is a creature called "Bom" of the star, and likes to eat dead leaves and withered iris petals.

Raymond laughed: "I found it in the ruins."

Opal reached out his hand, it moved in Raymond's palm, flicked into Opal's hand, all fluffy yellow and yellow, clumped together, very cute.

"The union has no time to manage small animals." Opal said.

Raymond hummed and said, "Look for a safe place to put it? E7 is also brought by the way."

Opal put Pom on his head, carrying E7, and they walked up the steps of the War Soul Tower side by side. The sky was completely clear, and the standing water slowly subsided under the sunshine.

Raymond said: "Maybe we have to fight again later."

Opal frowned: "How much is left for the Mechs?"

Raymond replied: "Less than 20,000, Azeroth is preparing to fight back, how long have they been in a meeting?"

Opal realized that it had been a long time since Azeroth came back. It was ten or more hours. Opal said: "Go inside and see? I remember there is a flower bed outside Azeroth's office floor."

Raymond said: "Not good."

Opal didn't care about this, nor did the ordinary mercenary's blind worship of Azeroth whisper: "If you're afraid of anything, come back and let go, let me know where I am."

Opal pulled Raymond into the War Soul City Hall and found the flying elevator. Raymond was here for the first time. The two went up to the 500th floor without being interrogated. There were many heads of mercenaries standing outside. Without a word.

"What group?" Someone asked, "Show your mercenary diary."

Opal said: "I... I am a friend of the wrench, Lily let me come."

Raymond said: "We stand and listen without comment."

The meeting inside seemed to be at the most critical juncture. A group leader took a look at their mercenary diary, and the other group leader said, "I have seen them, and I know them well."

The regiments did not chase them away, and all listened quietly to the conversation between Azeroth and Urka.

Urka's voice is much quieter, and apparently has not fully recovered after the serious injury.

"Kolorin has four men under his command, Night Owl, Braun, Black Hawk, and Aurora Falcon." Ulka said: "The strongest night owl was killed on the spot by an unknown third-party force on the Blue Star."

Opal remembered the star fox that suddenly appeared on the amethyst throne. It used only one trick, and he raided in the back, and cut the night owl in half with his mech.

Azeroth: "Kolorin obviously counted the night owl's hatred on you, Ulka, and the Black Hawk did die in our hands."

After a brief moment of silence in the hall, Ulka said: "The other spirits were killed on the battlefield. This bloody enmity cannot be resolved. Only the only auroral falcon left under Collorne is now the best chance to fight back. As long as the king lured Korolin to fight, Rosen attracted the firepower of the small warship, and the mech team forcibly landed on the mothership, abolishing all his maneuverability, and leaving his body in the God of War galaxy forever!"

Begonia's voice was very calm: "Enough, Ulka, we also suffered a very heavy price. You and the gray wolf were seriously injured. The two mechas of the Sunshine Twins were completely scrapped. The mechas we can play are left. , Three of Wang’s and Rosen’s. The wrench is still stuck on the enemy’s mother ship.”

"We don't have enough chances to capture Caroline's mothership." Rosen's voice passed through the communication channel with a rustling sound of electricity: "Even the result of the counterattack is unknown. I support launching indiscriminate attacks. Here In such a case, it would be a foolish thing to disperse the troops that were not many.

Ulka: "I have participated in countless battles of the Empire! Knowing the combat capabilities of various arms better than you! Our mecha is no worse than Meteor Legion! Moreover, the overall operational quality of Photon 3700 is higher than Meteor Legion, our mercenary The combat experience is also more abundant than that of the mixed army! Also, the wrench has already abolished the opposing command center..."

Begonia said: "How do you know that this is not a plan to seduce the enemy?! In case Caroline has already laid down the Tian Luo Di net, waiting for us to save people?! Ulka! The division is taking everyone's life adventure!"

Lily said: "If the wrench is still alive, he must not want us to risk him so much for the mother ship to save people for him."

Azeroth said: "But I must save him."

His calm voice seemed powerful and reliable, saying: "The wrench saved the star and became a captive at the last minute. I think we should at least bring the hero's body back. The class A mercenary commanders in the conference hall are voting It's time."

The regiments opened their mercenary diaries.

Azeroth said: "Ulka and Jimmyson represented his dead brother Jamie. The battle plan they proposed was to break through the troops. The mech team went to rescue the wrench and captured the Caroline's meteorite mothership from the inside."

"Begonia and Lawson, who represents the gray wolf, they believe that the national force should be mobilized and all living forces should be concentrated on the enemy mothership. Six S-class mercenaries, three to three, now, exercise your rights to determine the direction of this battle. , Three minutes later, this moment will become the history of the martial stars."

Opal and Raymond were not eligible to vote, and the entire conference hall showed a quiet and audible needle drop. The Pommon jumped out of Opal's coat pocket and jumped into the flower bed, hoping to settle there.

Three minutes later, Azeroth's voice rang: "Ulka, how long will it take for mecha to overhaul?"

Ulka: "All repairs have been completed. There are 22,400 mechas and 17,300 operators."

Azeroth: "Alternate vacancies will be used as alternates to inform Rosen that the atmosphere will respond. Begonia, ready to mobilize before the war, everyone, disband and prepare on the spot!"

The regiments dispersed, the office door opened, Jimmyson's eyes were flushed, and Begonia pushed Urka in a wheelchair out.

Opal said: "I want to see Azeroth."

He still remembers Caroline’s deep conscious hypnosis. The spiritual power from darkness is not completely indestructible. He only needs to use the power of faith to shake the power of faith. Opal cannot be completely lifted, but he is confident to shake the creation of Caroline. Nightmare.

Sometimes the victory or defeat was only in a single thought. Opal stepped forward, but Urka stopped him and said, "No, he prepared before the war, and no one can disturb him now."

Opal said: "I have a way to deal with Caroline, his nightmare and mental control, I can shake it!"

Begonia shook his head very slowly and whispered, "No, Wang is not afraid of him. He is not affected by Korolin's will. Go back, go back to your post."

Opal took a deep breath, and Raymond said, "Go away."

"You are an alternate." Raymond said: "Let me see your mercenary diary."

The two stood on the flight platform and descended slowly. Opal said: "Let me report to Square 4."

Raymond was quiet for a moment, and then said: "I understand your mood, but you must be careful, once you play..."

"Mercenaries! I, Azeroth, here is the order issued by the people!!"

The voice did not fall, and a powerful voice rang throughout the building.

Opal and Raymond stopped talking, and there seemed to be a surge of blood in the body.

"Six universes ago, Colleen the King of Meteorites invaded our territory! Your home was destroyed, your loved ones, your comrades born and died, hundreds of thousands of sacrifices in this battle! Revenge! The God of War galaxy Warrior!"

They ran out of the War Soul Mansion, and all the mercenaries on the whole star raised their heads, and the sound resounded through every inch of the country. On the central square, in the ruined streets, every mercenary was covered in blood and quietly listening to Ya Zelas's pre-war speech.

"Today I am entrusting you as a king! Follow me! We vow to make blood debts!"

"Revenge! Hurry up your last time, say goodbye or swear, the fearless will get the glory of this battle, and Korolin and the Meteorite Legion will become relics..."

"This way!" Raymond said: "Follow me! Kahn! He is my team partner!"

Opal followed Raymond, Raymond said something to a captain-like person, said: "I promise that he will not hinder."

Opal understood that the team was a comrade before Raymond returned. The captain only looked at Opal and said, "OK! Register your mercenary diary! Follow us! Go to No. 4 apron to report!"

Raymond strode with Opal, and Opal said: "Great! Am I with you?"

"Of course!" Raymond said: "Otherwise I am not at ease!"

They crossed the central square and ran to the No. 4 apron of the City of War Soul. Tens of thousands of mechas were uniform, with traces after the war. Ulka shouted: "Quick! Pass the previous one! The alternate and the official army Same! All on mech! Begonia will lead you! Entry number!"

"Today is a good day to die!" Azeroth shouted: "Follow me! Fly under my leadership, follow us, and fight to the last person!"

Raymond and Opal entered the two mechs next to each other. The hatch was closed, and there was darkness and red light in front of them. Azeroth's calm voice came from the communication channel: "Follow me, start, today I will send you A lot of them are brought back, whether it is alive or dead, whether it is a corpse!!! or a soul!!! Swear it! May you fight for the death of your king! The soul of God of War is with our mother star!"

An earth-shattering golden light rushed out of the atmosphere, and 20,000 mechas spouted a magnificent red light towards the depths of the universe.

"Artillery cover." Azeroth's command sounded directly on all mech communication channels.

"Attention all combat units." Begonia said: "Here is the mech combat commander Begonia. After ten seconds, it will switch to formation mode. I wish you a long life."

Opal took a deep breath, and as the combat instructor instructed, he operated the mech and leaned over, with two red and blue lenses left and right in front of his eyebrows.The porthole reveals a dark universe and countless reflective metal warships. Azeroth's God of War golden armor shrouded in the dazzling light, leading the mech units to join the fish-like warships and fly towards the depths of the universe.

A cheerful voice sounded: "Here is the captain AE. All units pay attention. There are ten people in our temporary squad. I have heard all of them. Report the luminous print under your navigation system."

The voices of mercenaries sounded on the communication channel, and Opal glanced at him: "T3."

Raymond's voice sounded: "T5."

The captain said: "Very good, now switch to the automatic navigation system. Our landing target is the west side platform of the meteor carrier. It is responsible for destroying all the turrets on the west side and attracting the firepower in the warehouse. The wrench has sent back all the map information. On the screen."

A three-dimensional stereoscopic image of an aircraft carrier was unfolded in front of him, and he continued to zoom in. The captain said: "The red dot is forty minutes after us. After landing, we will listen to my command. We have four regular soldiers and six alternates-T2, T7 and T8 and T11 are responsible for the forward strike, T3 and T4 cover the left wing, T13 and T9 cover the right wing, I and the deputy captain T5 are behind, we go deep into the aircraft carrier from the direction of the ground icon..."

A road was marked on the three-dimensional aircraft carrier map in the talk room. The captain said: "After destroying their West No. 3 communication facility and two optomagnetic field guns, they retreated in the direction marked on the map and destroyed them when passing by the west platform. The nuclear reactor, after returning to Rosen’s battleship artillery cover, wait for a new round of instructions. I wish you a long life!"

Everyone responded, the communication channel was silent, and the conversation between Begonia and Rosen rang again.

"Today is a good day for revenge." Rosen carelessly said.

Begonia said: "I hope everything goes well, I always feel that Wang is a little rash this time."

Azeroth's voice said: "No, I'm calm, but it's a bit of a rash to forget to switch the dialogue mode... Or, is this Rosen intentionally?"

All the mechas laughed, Begonia said: "Uncle, in fact, it doesn't matter if you say this in front of you."

Azeroth said: "Uncle also has blood, I am not a gambler."

The mercenaries cheered, and even Opal couldn't help smiling. The light screen was divided into five. The upper left corner locked Azeroth's mech. The upper right corner showed the perspective passed by the battleship led by Rosen, lower right It is the tracking of their team, the lower left is divided into four squares, forward perspective, left and right perspective and rear perspective.

In the center is the sight seen by the affiliated mechas-the meteor carrier reflects the light of the God of War star, and is quietly suspended in the center of space.

"Raymond." Opal closed his eyes and lay in the cabin, saying, "I have a plan."

"Hey, you two know each other, go back and ask me to drink, and arrange you together?" the captain interjected.

The whole team laughed, and Opal said: "OK, thank you, Captain."

Someone said: "What are your incredible plans?"

Everyone started laughing again. Raymond didn't smile, saying: "You said, don't laugh at him, the communication channel is left to both of us, thank you."

Opal said: "Begonia's younger brother is on the aircraft carrier."

There was silence in the communication channel, and the captain said a long time ago: "This is the case? But I believe the Iron Hen will not betray us."

Opal said: "If Caroline laid a trap on the aircraft carrier, I would just say in case... Is the map returned by the wrench fake?"

Raymond said: "I think the wisdom of Azeroth and Wrench and Rosen will not fail to guard against this trick. They may have a secret code, right?"

Opal yelled, everyone in the entire team was listening to their conversation, Opal said: "I still want to use E7 to conduct another survey after arrival to ensure that in case, you know, there is a wrench on E7 to set it yourself program of."

The captain said, "What is E7? Sounds majestic."

Opal said: "Navigation intelligent robot."

Raymond said: "What is the first item in the code of practice? You forgot?"

"You can't leave the mech at any time." Opal said unpleasantly: "I didn't forget, I just wanted to..."

The captain said: "If you have time, I will allow you to try it. But don't do it without permission. T5, your partner seems to be full of hero ideas, hoping to come in handy, not help."

Raymond laughed: "He has always been like this, but he has never been bad, believe me, you will not regret bringing him."

In the distance Azeroth held a long axe and pointed towards the mother ship.

With 22,000 kilometers left between the two sides, the communication channel switched to the full battlefield mode, and Rosen's voice sounded: "After the battle, I am waiting for you at the Magic Moon Lake, and everyone will drink a glass of celebration wine and prepare to start the counterattack! Fight for the king of mercenaries! Fight for the star!"

"Fight for the star!"

There were cries of shouting in the communication channel, Azeroth's mech turned into a golden light, with the glory of the thunder and the god of war in the universe, leading his dead to the meteor carrier.

At the same time, the battleship behind the battlefield was fully fired, and light bombs and rays penetrated the space, filled with the icy universe. In the torrent of light, the aircraft carrier released tens of thousands of mechs upstream.

Eventually, the initial war started.

This day is the epoch of the universe on May 25, 20104. It is said that the battle of the fighting gods was launched on the martial star. This battle had a decisive impact on the later dark meteor forces, the republic and the empire.

The Battle of the Stars starts with the giant axe of Azeroth and draws a golden light that has made the universe turbulent for nearly a century.
