The severe pain in his left chest pulled Kalki's consciousness back to the real world. Wearing a space armor, he was straddling his fighter plane "Little Wolf" and galloping at top speed. He felt sweat flowing down the bridge of his nose.
, even hanging on his long eyelashes.
There seemed to be only darkness in front of him, and he had lost his sense of direction in the endless space.
The tide of ultra-high-energy radiation particles, like the tidal wave of a tsunami, slowly recedes, but there are still turbulent flows of energy everywhere.
"... We are now in PG... Area 41... Our entire fleet... my airborne radar can no longer detect it... is distributed in a diameter space of nearly 500 million kilometers..."
Shankara's voice sounded in the communication, with a hint of panic, and he lost his former calmness and confidence. The cosmic storm damaged the electronic communication system of the fighter plane, and the young chief of staff's voice was distorted intermittently, completely listening to
Not sure.
Kalki was unable to respond. It was like a stone was pressing on his heart. He could not contact Sigurd and could only try to detect it with airborne radar. The space radar of "Little Wolf" might be damaged.
With few aircraft detected, he realized:
His fleet is completely destroyed.
"Grand Commander! Grand Commander! Are you not injured?" He heard Ila's voice. As a first-class flagship, "Varuna" did not seem to be greatly affected, and the communication was still very smooth and clear.<
/p>
"...Everything is fine." Kalki said reluctantly in German.
"Our fleet has been completely scattered. I am contacting various battle groups. We have suffered heavy losses... More than 300 crew members on Varuna were injured." Ila's tone remained calm, but also
There is a sense of deep pain.
He felt pain all over his body, and this pain was not just physical.
The contact with the "Undead Army" battle group directly under the Grand Master was quickly restored, although their voices were distorted or unclear, sounding like they came from another world. But fortunately, the knights who followed him seemed to have escaped.
This gave him a little comfort, but bad news kept coming one after another.
"It will take us at least 75 minutes to regroup. We still have to avoid some energy vortices, but more than 80% of the ships' ion thrusters have been damaged to varying degrees." Ila continued to report the losses to the grand captain.
"We lost half of the transport fleet, due to their slowest reaction and speed... 5 prisoner-of-war ships, which means more than 30,000 Gaia prisoners of war and more than 2,000 of our transport ship officers and soldiers, have disappeared...
”
"...Fortunately, the 80 heavy destroyers at the rear were arranged behind the flagship during the change of formation. Their weapon systems were almost not damaged, only the crew members were injured, and our various battleships suffered little losses. After regrouping,
We can still keep fighting...just..."
"During the formation change, the 15 small frigates and 200 deformed fighters that were assigned to the right wing... all disappeared... The good news is that Eden's left wing only crashed 2 small frigates and lost 15 fighters...
...Basically intact, but the losses on the right wing were too heavy."
When Kalki listened to the report, he remained silent and just let the "little wolf" escape as quickly as possible from the vortex of radiation particles.
"Nel..." He heard Shankara's voice, "He was the squadron commander on the right... He disappeared..."
Kalki was still silent. He thought of the young knights chatting and laughing in the crowded restaurant of the flagship. Nell made a joke for him. The young man with light blond hair laughed loudly and knocked on the table for him. There were many people here.
Everyone has disappeared, and these comrades who have been together day and night will never see each other again——
"These are Plato's most elite 'immortal army'!" the grand leader roared angrily.
There was silence in the communication, and everyone heard Kalki's panting voice, which was an extremely harsh and painful gasp. Although everyone's breath was disordered after being shocked, no one was as disordered as the grand leader, showing that
Sadness and pain.
"I can accept their death in a fierce battle, but I cannot accept their meaningless turning into cosmic dust... The Gaians are a bunch of beasts! They make the death of the most noble person meaningless... I
They were determined to abide by the prisoner protection agreement between the two sides, but they killed half of their own people! This group of savage infidels!"
The death of his friends caused Kalki's inner grief to burst like a flood. His passion mixed with the agitation of revenge, in the form of boiling blood, made his whole body and mind filled with rage.
"Kill them all! Don't leave any one for me!"
He immediately called Bulli, the director of the surviving transport fleet, and shouted in a very gloomy tone.
"Grand leader? What does this mean?"
The mobility of the transport fleet is very poor, and the entire surviving fleet is busy fighting to get rid of the turbulent flow of super particles. Bully no longer cares about polite words to the supreme commander.
"Calm down! Kalki, don't kill innocent people indiscriminately!" The young voice of Siddha, the chief valet of the grand commander, sounded, "Control your emotions! You are our kind brother, so bright...like a ball of fire, your passion and love
The raging fire will hurt others, and it will also hurt yourself!"
Bulli took the initiative to cut off communication links, showing his resistance to this hasty and unclear order.
At the moment of life and death, the officers and soldiers of the transport fleet are busy escaping from the high-energy particle turbulence, and no one will carry out the order to massacre Gaia's prisoners of war.
"Ouch!" Rear Admiral Han looked at the virtual image of the ship in disarray that slowly appeared on the screen again, and breathed a sigh of relief. "I thought the Plato fleet was completely wiped out... Fortunately, it was not. It seems that this one
The big tiger is very lucky!"
"Xiao Xu! The intensity of the cosmic storm is much higher than your demonstration..." Director Chen unconsciously put on the face of a leader who is picky about the work of his subordinates in the General Staff Office.
"I..." The unabashed Lancer showed his embarrassment. He knew very well that if Kalki hadn't reacted quickly, the entire Plato fleet would have turned into dust at this time, and the "Darjeeling Plan" would have ended in failure. "The strategic goal in my plan has been achieved! Look! The radar has identified the location of the Grand Commander's battle group. He is safe and sound..." He pointed to the cursor on the three-dimensional display, "And this time
The tiger is not lucky! He is running away in the direction I predicted..."
"He is about to be caught in a tiger trap again! This time, this cunning man-eating tiger is unable to resist..."
"Another Gaia fleet appears!"
Ila's voice echoed in Kalki's ears, like a thunder.
The space radar system of frontline staff Shankara has been damaged, and the fighter group commanded by the grand commander can only accept the navigation information of the flagship and move forward in the boundless darkness of time and space.
A Gaia fleet composed of 500 warships of various types, carrying space planes and drones of all sizes, rushed towards the Plato transforming fighter group that had just escaped disaster.
At this time, Kalki only had 180 transforming fighters, and the entire white tiger fleet, which had been washed to pieces, was hundreds of millions of kilometers away and could no longer provide him with any timely artillery support.
Kalki nervously stared at the signal sent to him by the flagship: This Gaia fleet was obviously well prepared, and the artillery angle could fully cover Kalki's deformed fighter formation. As long as it entered the range, the "White Tiger" fighter group would be bombarded instantly.
into pieces.
"We are about to hit their cannon muzzle!" Luohu shouted anxiously, "Karki, we must disperse defensively!"
The commander of the regiment, who originally reacted very quickly on the battlefield, failed to issue orders in time.
"Do they really think of me as a tiger from the old circus? They drive me with a whip and make me jump through the fire hoops one by one?"
He was obviously furious. It would be an understatement to describe him as losing his mind. He hated this kind of parrot-style feather-plucking and insidious attacks, which completely confused him who was used to fighting openly.
A burst of furious blood surged to the top of his head, and he suddenly felt tired as never before, but a wounded lion would be braver and bloodthirsty.
"Remove the protective shield!" the commander of the regiment loudly ordered. This protective shield consumes high energy and hinders high-speed charging.
"Knights! Attack!" he roared.
Kalki had lost his former rigorous thinking. He simply did not form an attack formation or arrange some tactics with his subordinates. The "Little Wolf" rushed towards the Gaia fleet like a meteor.
He was probably stunned with anger, or he suddenly burst out with the fighting passion of a space knight. Instead of descending into the fighter plane as usual and letting the fighter plane transform into a streamlined combat mode, he wore space armor and rode directly astride it.
Piloting the White Tiger fighter plane, like an ancient knight on a horse, he rushed towards the enemy fleet that was as dense and shining like stars without fear.
"Death is the reward for warriors, go ahead!"
Lancer finally saw the small flashing dot belonging to Kalki on the display screen of the battle situation. The previous battle situation was always chaotic, or if there was a huge group of followers surrounding him, the space radar would display a dense array of deformed fighter planes.
Click, the specific identity cannot be confirmed.
"We can completely lock down the regimental commander-level fighters!" the young sergeant shouted excitedly.
This is the ultimate goal of the layout he spent so much time on - to completely isolate the grand leader. He is like a gold digger, using a gold pan in countless mud, constantly shaking it back and forth again and again, just to get the dust.
The moment the stone dissipated, the gold shone brightly, and he was so happy when it appeared in front of him.
"Come on, Alice, you're going to fall down the rabbit hole."
Lancer looked at the display screen with his brown eyes attentively, waiting for the small light spot to fly to the predetermined position. He was so nervous that he was sweating profusely, and the sweat made his slightly wet curls stick to his forehead. At this time, Lanser
Se Xu seems to be no longer just a junior staff officer with the most junior qualifications. He has completely forgotten himself. When he devotes all his attention to the most critical moment of the plan, he does not pay attention to himself at all.
He is cautious, even a little shy, as a newcomer, showing the air of a general, as if he is naturally capable of commanding a fleet to fly across the ocean of stars to win victory.
The speed of Kalki's charge was extremely astonishing. The knights who followed him rushed towards the Gaia fleet led by Major General Marlboro with thunderous speeds. Furthermore, he used his unparalleled mobility to circle an extremely astonishing spiral arc.
Line, prepare to penetrate directly into the area with weak fire coverage on the left wing of the Gaia fleet. Before the Gaia fleet bombards its own fleet, launch a strong attack.
Lancer quickly pressed the "attack" command button.
Kalki was not "greeted" like a volley of thousands of cannons from the Gaians. At this time, as a battlefield, everything was too quiet.
A strange-shaped battleship in the Gaian fleet launched a gravitational wave in the direction of Kalki. This huge energy shot into the black hole universe without leaving any trace.
When this piece of gold is exposed to the sun and sparkles, the moment you touch it with your hands is actually the longest.
Lancer recalled the time when he was thinking hard about the "Darjeeling Project". When he first learned that the Gaia Army had recently developed a new gravitational wave weapon, he had a hunch that he would be able to use it soon.
"...The technology leaked by the Draconians to the Gaia War Department..."
He heard someone whispering.
At this time, his thoughts immediately flashed back to the NGC2547 base.
The alien message package brought by Brigadier General Bernini.
The bellicose White Tiger leader snatched it away directly.
What is going on? He feels that there is something completely inconsistent with logic in this matter, which is too mysterious. He feels that everyone's fate is like a chess piece on the sand table, and he wants to know the final result of the deduction.
p>
"...This latest gravitational wave weapon creates gravity that can distort space. It is equivalent to creating a small black hole, which can instantly transfer a small amount of matter from point A to point B in the universe..." A man of black descent
The master of science and engineering neurotically explained the principles of weapons, his hair was as messy as if it had been blasted by a nuclear bomb, and he had a Frankenstein-like energy.
"It's like the rabbit hole in Alice in Wonderland." Lancer said to a group of young staff officers.
"Yes, yes, the rabbit hole leading to another dimension!" The god of science and technology pointed at him knowingly.
"You can 'kidnap' a person and leave his world..." Lancer murmured to himself. He thought of the Darjeeling Project that he participated in. Now the Darjeeling Project fascinates him more than Xuanji, and he thinks about it all the time.
:How suitable this is to dig a hole for a knight who is good at launching independent charges——
The leader of Kalki, who was attacking as fast as a meteor, also suddenly disappeared without a trace like a meteor.
"Kalki!"
"Grand leader!"
"My lord!"
The knights couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
The Grand Commander's fighter jet they were charging with suddenly disappeared from the display in front of them.
