Chapter 455: The Value of People
The final Armageddon is about to begin, and in the star system where the metallic parent star is located, the human warships are all deployed, and this time their goal is simply 'kill, kill, kill'.
"It can't be defeated, the cosmic monster is too powerful compared to humans. Carla asserted that the human spirit was commendable, but if the three of them did not make a move, the human race would probably not have a chance of winning.
Kent didn't say anything, but he did think that humanity would not necessarily fail, at most the sacrifice would be great. Armageddon will be even shorter than the previous encounters, and it's either you or I. The cosmic monsters will definitely attack non-stop, wave after wave.
There wasn't much time left for everyone to hesitate, and the battle had already begun.
The planets of the entire star system were wiped out in dense artillery fire, and humanity was almost always defending, with six billion cosmic monsters lining up to attack.
The outcome of the battle can be said to have been decided in an instant, and the balance of victory is constantly tilting towards the cosmic monster.
Even if the Kuafu-class battleship was very strong, but in this wheel battle, it still exposed its weaknesses, in just thirty minutes, twenty-two waves of enemies, the number exceeded 50,000, three battleships were destroyed to varying degrees, and ordinary battleships were all wiped out, as if they were eaten by locusts.
The attrition rate of steel is as high as 88 percent, and it has lost its combat effectiveness. There is not one in ten antimatter missiles, and all human means are exhausted in just thirty minutes.
It's over?
In the face of the uninterrupted offensive of six billion enemies, it can be said that it is already a miracle that mankind can hold on for 30 minutes.
The people who are still alive have all completed their transformation, and they look at the floating debris in the universe with blank expressions. What else can they do?
No, there is one last hope, Sergei knows that it is time to transfer all the crew, take advantage of the rest of the cosmic monsters, transfer all the crew and then he can detonate the engine of the Quafu to create a black hole.
"First mate, do you say they're admiring the dying ugliness of our humans?" Sergei was discussing with the first mate why the cosmic monsters had stopped attacking.
The first mate looked at the dense white dots on the radar, and only knew that if the cosmic monsters kept attacking, the three Kuafu-class ships would be just fish on the chopping board: "Because they have a chance to win." The first mate said, "Captain, everyone is waiting for your order. ”
Sergei looked at everyone on the bridge, closed his eyes and seemed to hesitate, and finally he opened his eyes and released a fine light: "It's time for them to see the determination of humanity, and how far we can go in order to survive." "Order the whole ship to move, and within twenty minutes must all evacuate, inform the friendly forces, and after twenty-five minutes must complete the jump." The Kwa Father will complete the final task. ”
The captain's order was instantly heard by radio to all the soldiers, and they immediately went into action.
Andrei knew that his father was going to take an adventure, he rushed into the bridge and saw his emaciated father: "......" had a thousand words but suddenly forgot to speak.
"Major Andrei, the order to abandon the ship has been issued, and you should be on the transfer ship now. Sergey glanced at his son, then turned his head away and continued to look at the screen.
There was only the captain left in the bridge, and after being promoted to captain and receiving the order, Sergei knew that he would live and die with the Kwafu, which was his mission as a captain and a soldier, and he would stay here to complete the detonation order alone.
"You can't stay. Although he had been blaming his father in his heart, Andre still ran to the bridge by mistake, and he seemed to know that his father would never leave, because this was his father.
For the sake of the country, he can sacrifice his mother, for the sake of human interests, he can also sacrifice himself: "I don't understand, why don't you never think about yourself, why don't you think about your family?" Andrei is more like a wronged child at this time, he doesn't understand why his father wants to do this, is it worth it? Even if he doesn't do it, there are other people who will do it, why is that person his own father? Why should the person who gives everything have to be his own family?
Andrey does not understand, does not understand, does not accept!
What can Sergei say, it is true that if he does not do it, there will naturally be other people who have the same dedication as him to do it, but can others do it with their own peace of mind? Sergei can't agree, he can't give his son a happy family, and he is also very sorry, but if he is asked to choose, he will still choose righteousness: "Andrey, my child, maybe what you said is not wrong, but this is my choice." ”
"Why? Why can everyone else evade responsibility, why are you so stupid? Why do you have to rush forward? Whether it's the Human Revolutionary Federation or the New Earth Federation, even if it doesn't have you, it will still work, why do you have to do it?!" Andre wanted to ask all the questions he had in the past twenty years at this moment, he knew that if he didn't ask now, he would never have a chance in the future.
Sergei looked ahead, the cosmic monster had not yet attacked, but he knew that time was running out, and it would be too late for his son not to leave: "Major Andrei, leave now immediately, this is an order." ”
"No, if you don't answer me, I will never leave. Andrei shouted, he is almost thirty years old this year, but he has never been so persistent as he is today.
Sergei turned around and looked at his son calmly: "Okay, I'll answer you." "There was no reason, I thought I could juggle family and responsibilities, but I was wrong, I wasn't superhuman, I was just an ordinary person, so I made a trade-off, and this is the answer. Can you go now?"
There is no answer to this kind of question, because there are fools like Sergei in every era, although they will be ridiculed by the mainstream, but it is precisely because of these fools who sacrificed their small families that they saved everyone's thousands of small families.
Andrei won't understand, or a lot of people won't, and they don't need to understand, and stupid people will just do as always, they don't explain or justify.
Andrei watched his father turn around again, looking at his father's back, he was not satisfied with this answer, this answer was too pale.
Any words, not only answers, but any words are so pale compared to Sergei's actions, even if the reincarnation of the poet immortal Wen Sheng's rebirth is extremely beautiful, and the rhetoric is infinite, it is difficult to give a reason or explanation.
Important choices are always decided in a split second, and Sergey does not think much about it, everything that is not reasonable for others is taken for granted for him.
The cosmic monster moved, and Sergei knew that there was no time, so he immediately came over and punched his son in the stomach, dragging his son, who had shrunk into a shrimp, to the side of the spaceship: "Let's go immediately." ”
Just waiting for Andrei, the spaceship left, and Andrei could only see his father's back.
Sensing the crisis, the cosmic monsters began to pounce on the Kwafu. Suicide attack, directly crashing into the Kuafu.
Sergei knew that the Kuafu was about to be overwhelmed, and he showed a hideous expression and said to the cosmic monsters that filled the screen: "Will you be scared too? Yes, you will be scared too. Between self-questions and answers, everything was set up, and the Kuafu ushered in the end.
