Walk alone in the abyss

Who fired the cannon?

Captain Gries' eyes were already filled with that bright and hot beam of light.

He was puzzled, slightly confused.

The white ghost's special battleship, the beautifully shaped gull-type battleship full of high-tech power, which is said to be able to fly at super high speed, was so easily bombarded, and the white ghost and the Valkyrie were finished together...

This is neither in the interests of the empire nor in the style of the generals.

And here is the territory of the empire, there can be no battleships of other forces, this artillery must have been done by the empire.

High-energy ion beams are currently the most commonly used high-destructive weapons and equipment in galactic civilization. The ion cannons of dreadnoughts can directly detonate the star cores of planets. The ion cannons of ordinary battleships have high lethality according to different calibers, energy types and densities. Low.

Like the ion beam in front of me that lasted for seven seconds, I am afraid that a kilometer-class battleship released all the stored energy.

The gull-type warship without the protective cover was enveloped and penetrated by the ion beam almost instantly, and refusion reactions appeared in many places on the hull, as if several small stars were lit up within a diameter of more than 100 meters .

The powerful Valkyrie only existed for less than a second under the bombardment of the ion cannon.

She tried to rush out of the Feinan, but was directly ablated by the ion beam.

Gris received the projection function through the helmet of the individual soldier, watching all this, most of the team members behind him were relieved.

Fortunately, they were not close to the battlefield before, and the multiple spacesuits and combat suits on their bodies have the effect of isolating radiation. Otherwise, it would be just this explosion, and most of these people would be killed or injured.

Gris had more doubts.

When did the above become so decisive?

Whenever this happens, don't they have to kill several waves of members of their special team every time before they are willing to use naval artillery to smash those high-threatening targets?

Such a good sample of the Valkyrie is also related to [Eternal Life], a topic that officials and gentlemen can't refuse. How could the higher-ups easily issue an order to destroy it...

In the last meteorite belt battle, if the higher-ups were so decisive, how many of his subordinates at that time would have been killed or injured?

At the end of the Meteor Belt War, the gunboats bombarded the Valkyrie. At that time, they were not willing to bombard the Valkyrie with real main battleships. They also wanted to collect fragments of the Valkyrie for research.

Gris uttered a few swear words in the team's voice, and the tense string in his heart finally relaxed.

But in the next moment, Gris frowned slightly.

He heard the angry shouts of several old generals:

"Who fired the cannon!"

"Who smashed such a precious sample!"

"Bastard! This is the only sample! Believe it or not!"

The corner of Gris' mouth twitched slightly, and he led his team back home.

As for who fired the cannon and smashed the white ghost and the Valkyrie, that's not a question that Greese can care about.

After all, he was just an infantryman.

In the deep space, several thick ion beams shot towards the coordinate point where the bombardment happened just now.

A ship shaped like a fathead fish appeared, and a thick protective energy shield appeared around it. These ion beams only stimulated layers of ripples on the energy shield.

In the next moment, the ship crashed into the space ripples in front of it, completing a rapid transition.

The warship formation near the Sherman Empire has been ordered to search and encircle the jump point of the ship, but they are still a few steps behind. The fat-headed fish-shaped spaceship has already completed the continuous jump and disappeared in the empire. The barren star field.

...

Grass is a plant.

Yang Ming crawled out from under the Dongfeng's particle conveyor, stood up staggeringly, and sat down again, panting continuously.

He wasn't hurt, just a little weak in the leg.

On the side, 026 ran over with the medicine box in his arms, quickly turned on the laser wall breaker, opened a gap on the back of Yang Ming's hand, quickly inserted the needle into it, and injected the gene stabilization solution.

Yang Ming didn't have time to take care of these things.

The familiar starry sky reappeared, and the curled up girl Po Whirling floated in front of her. The strands of star sand merged into two rivers, 70% of which flowed towards Po Whirling, and 30% flowed towards Yang Ming.

'Where are you? '

Yang Ming asked like he was dreaming.

The girl with her hands on her knees opened her dull eyes, she just stared at Yang Ming, and then looked away, without replying to Yang Ming at all.

She was hit hard again.

But just as Yang Ming and Lu speculated, she still kept the seeds.

Yang Ming felt that his body became slightly hot, as if every cell was cheering, and he was undergoing some kind of transformation.

The strange energy of his robbery this time is obviously much higher than the last time.

What is the principle?

Is it a reward for his victory over the Valkyries?

This situation lasted for ten minutes.

Po Suo opened her eyes again to look at Yang Ming, a bit more confused in her dull eyes, and Yang Ming seemed to have heard her murmuring.

'Why? '

'Isn't it good to come back to me? '

'You are my genetic product. '

Yang Ming: Thank you for Hanton's parents!

The wonder of the starry sky disappeared.

Yang Ming came back to his senses, feeling as if he had inexhaustible energy all over his body, the world in his eyes became clearer, and he could even see the fine lines on the ceiling of the Dongfeng bridge.

Got stronger again.

But it doesn't matter.

Yang Ming didn't make any unnecessary movements, and stood up straight. The crimson light in his eyes disappeared, startling the people standing and sitting around him.

Outside the porthole window is an unfamiliar starry sky.

"Did we escape?" Yang Ming asked anxiously.

"Escaped," Mimili said softly, "for now."

"The Sherman Empire sent a task force to track us," Lu's projection appeared beside him, "but we have got rid of them temporarily. Unexpectedly, the empire also hid some military technology. That task force is tracking the jump. The signal capabilities are outstanding.”

Yang Ming breathed a sigh of relief, took two steps forward, and his figure suddenly levitated.

Kolev, who was about to speak next to him, was stunned again when he saw this.

"Oh! Yang Ming! You can fly? Is the simulated gravity turned off! Oh, it's still on!"

Yang Ming clicked his tongue softly, thought about it carefully for a while, calmed down, and slowly slid down.

"You can become stronger by killing your own higher-level life form. It's no big deal," Yang Ming said casually, and then focused on reading the simple information compiled by Lu.

He was not in a hurry to check how much strength he had improved, but just repeatedly confirmed the news that the Valkyrie had been defeated.

"Boss," 026 shouted with red eyes, "Feinan is gone, Chigui is gone too..."

"All mechas can be rebuilt," Yang Ming whispered, "This Dongfeng is the advanced spaceship of Feinan. You can also call this place Feinan in the future. Don't be too sad."

026 nodded slightly.

She has lived on the Feinan for so long, so she naturally has feelings.

Although her living cabin is not large, the single bed area is also tight.

Ritsu asked: "Boss, is Valkyrie still alive?"

"Well," Yang Ming said, "the only good news is that this time I robbed about one-third of her energy. Every time I face her, I instinctively have some fear. This is the problem I need to overcome next. , this fear comes from genetic disadvantage."

Law nodded thoughtfully.

Mimili crossed her arms and asked: "Can the Valkyrie survive such a level of shelling?"

"She has reserved cell tissue that can develop into a new body again," Yang Ming said, "one of the characteristics of the ancient gods."

"Okay, this sounds a bit magical," Mimili asked quietly, "Uncle, can you do it too?"

"I haven't tried it, and I don't plan on trying it."

Yang Ming shrugged and gestured to his captain's chair, which immediately slid over.

"Law, let the Molly Mies Mining Group stop all abnormal activities and peacefully prospect and mine."

"Boss, won't you continue to search for traces of the Valkyrie? She has entered a period of weakness again."

"She controlled the ghost ship before. With the ability to jump, she can place reserved cells in any corner."

Yang Ming explained: "The previous search methods are meaningless. Compared with these, we must now analyze the current situation."

Kolev smiled and said: "You have won, even though you lost the Feinan."

"This is just a temporary victory, and things get a little trickier."

Several crawler robots came over, took off their heads and stuffed them into their belly compartments, using their respective weighing plates as temporary seats.

Yang Ming, Kolev, Mimi Li, Lu, and 026 were sitting around the projection sand table.

The previous battle process was replayed in the sand table, with Yang Ming narrating and supplementing it.

When facing the Valkyrie, the Ligui mecha was restrained in every way.

This mecha is designed to kill insects, and its individual combat capabilities are outstanding, but the Valkyrie's spiritual power can directly drag the Ligui.

If it hadn't been for the urgent installation of a 'light shield' that was still in the experimental development stage and used a high-density energy shield to resist the Valkyrie head-on, this mecha would have been dismantled by the Valkyrie with her bare hands within a few rounds.

The light blade has no frontal damage effect on the Valkyrie.

The Feinan's secondary guns and close-in defense gun system could only slightly frustrate the Valkyrie.

As long as the Valkyrie doesn't die, she can regain her strength, become stronger, and will one day make a comeback.

"This is not the way to go," Kolev said. "We must find the reserved cells of the Valkyrie and eradicate her completely."

Mimi Li said: "The problem is where to find it."

"No," Yang Ming frowned, "The real problem is no longer how strong the Valkyrie is... Lu, play the scene of the Valkyrie evolving in battle."

"Okay boss."

The projection sand table began to change again.

Yang Ming circled the colorful laurel wreath.

"Do you think the Valkyrie made this thing herself?"

Ritsu and 026 shook their heads honestly, while Kolev remained silent.

Mimili said: "This seems to be some kind of amplification device."

"Yes," Yang Ming was a little excited. "When I faced her head-on, the most obvious feeling was that what she appeared at that time was not like she had evolved, but like she had been strengthened! What made her suddenly stronger was her mental power!"

Lu asked softly: "Boss, do you mean that someone is helping Valkyrie?"

"It doesn't have to be a human being," Yang Ming said. "I'm thinking now about how the genes of ancient gods and human genes are fused, and why the life form produced after the fusion retains the appearance of humans and possesses the characteristics of ancient gods. The power of living things.”

He rubbed the tip of his nose and continued to analyze:

"In fact, I've always suspected that the whirling wasn't Kigrove's product, or in other words, it wasn't Kigrove's independent transformation.

"Kigrov may not have noticed this, and regarded the genetic stability of the modified body as a coincidence, and regarded the birth of the Valkyrie as his most perfect masterpiece.

"It is very possible that there is a big hand that created the Valkyrie through Kigrove."

Law murmured: "High-dimensional civilization?"

"But," 026 wondered, "what's the use of high-dimensional civilization to create Valkyries?"

Mimily: "Anti-bug weapon?"

Yang Ming said with a smile: "The high-level Zerg is also the enemy of high-dimensional human civilization. This guess is also possible, but it is just a guess after all."

"Then what are you going to do now?"

Kolev pondered a few times:

"I simply reviewed the existing information just now, and found that your situation is very dangerous, Yang Ming.

"The Valkyrie is not entirely an ancient god, or in other words, she is actually very sober and has a human side.

"Humans are smart and treacherous, and they know how to work around. She has tried to contact the empire this time, and after she is resurrected with the reserved cells again, she will probably go directly to negotiate with the empire.

"She joined forces with the empire, and you will have nowhere to go. Your best end will be a nutrition tank with your own excrement."

Yang Ming glared at Kolev, the old man just smiled wryly at him.

"I'm not joking," Kolev murmured, "You have to act first. Although I don't know how to act first, you must consider how to use the weak period of Valkyrie."

Yang Ming yawned.

Before thinking about these brain-intensive questions, he wanted to reward himself with a half-day vacation and relax for a while.

Farewell, Feinan.

He really suffered a heavy loss this time.

...

at the same time.

Inside the special warship for Gris's team.

"The white ghost is not dead?"

Gris looked at the photos in front of him. They were the pictures of the white ghost rushing out of the Feinan and being taken away by a beam of bright light.

"Particle transport?"

"Yes, according to the judgment of several physicists, that beam of light is the sign of particle transmission," sighed a female commander, "The white ghost set a trap for the Valkyrie with his battleship, and then destroyed the At the cost of a battleship, the Valkyrie was taken away."

Gris put his feet on the edge of the table and leaned comfortably on the chair: "So, the lower life forms defeated the upper life forms?"

"The generals are pissed, and this has gone to the highest levels of the military."

The immediate boss of Greese frowned and said:

"You are the only team member who has had contact with Valkyrie, and you will definitely face layers of inquiries, I hope you are prepared.

"In addition, the origin of the white ghost seems to be from the Kigrove test ship. The remaining team has now suffered a crisis of trust and is about to undergo the most rigorous review and interrogation.

"They may ask you about this, and you should answer according to what you know. Everything is based on pragmatism."

"Don't worry, I have a measure," Gris shrugged. "It has nothing to do with me. The white ghost has too many secrets. Since he defeated the Valkyrie, his value is naturally higher than that of the Valkyrie."

"The generals don't think so," the female commander said. "Now they care more about the warship that can jump quickly and carry out particle transmission. We are surpassed by the other party in terms of military technology. This is the most terrifying thing."

Gries said: "Not only that, our communication channel has also been invaded by white ghosts."

"If he is just a lower life form of Valkyrie, where did he get these technologies that we have never mastered?"

"Who knows, maybe it's a special department of the empire that we haven't come into contact with? Compared with the empire thousands of years ago, our current technology has regressed."

"Okay, don't discuss this topic, it's taboo."

"We are truly a taboo for wealth," Gris muttered.
