Epilogue The bloodline before dawn

The surface of Dijing, 97 degrees 18 minutes west longitude. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is the radial central axis of the Red Pacific Ocean, with the ocean as the center, with a vast area of nearly 8,000 kilometers to the east and west.

Of course, this is not the point, the point is that at the time when the "Storm" No. 5 was shot down by the "Reaper", it was precisely the sunrise of the central axis of the red Pacific Ocean. The crimson glow of the morning sun erupts from beneath the surface of the sea, rich in red algae, and the two reds are superimposed, dyeing the entire skyline into a blood-colored band of light.

Dawn represents the beginning and the beginning, while the color of the blood represents death and the end. The two are perfectly combined at this moment, and together they draw a magnificent picture, which makes countless people reverie.

This is the blood-colored skyline before dawn, and it is also a famous beauty of Dijing, although it is not as good as the second quadrant meteor shower of the "American Dream", but it still attracts millions of tourists every year.

It's just that the blood here is far less intense than the "secret of Jijing" that hides behind Jijing L2 Lagrange.

The fortress, which had been noisy for more than half an hour, finally regained its calm at this moment, with both the tranquility of dawn and the silence brought by death.

With the final blow of the "Grim Reaper" falling, the battle has finally come to an end. Hundreds of debris fell along with it, all of which fell from the Storm 5 fuselage.

The No. 5 itself was nailed to the outer wall of the central axis by the "Grim Reaper", and both bodies were motionless, like a combined statue.

After a while, the outer walls of the central axis, which were not very thick, finally could not withstand the two bodies weighing hundreds of tons under the action of centrifugal force.

As a result, the No. 5 machine, which had even turned off the vector vent, began to fall, and the new version of the "Grim Reaper" under it also fell to the ground like those fragments.

The UACs watching the battle stopped celebrating for a short time and looked at the scene with some bewilderment.

The vector vent on the back of the "Reaper" continued to output, but the output power could not withstand the combined weight of the two super bodies, so it fell to the ground.

But why Tom. If Smith didn't hurry to drive the "Reaper" out of the way, why did he have to fall with the No. 5 plane?

Until the two super planes fell a full two kilometers and landed with a bang, the "Reaper" still did not move a single cent.

20,000 kilometers away, in the bridge of the "Tempest", the exhausted Fengyu opened his eyes, "We won!" My initial battle was successful! ”

What's going on?

Let's start at the beginning.

UAC Tech Stream Super Ace "Grim Reaper" Tom. Although Smith has become a GMP person, he has a super physique and can withstand an instantaneous overload of up to 50g. But that doesn't mean he's a superman, or that his internal organs are as tough as rubber.

The extreme combat plan designed by Fengyu's rational personality is to use the continuous ultra-high overload maneuver to drag down the "Grim Reaper" physically.

Actually, Tom. Smith is far more resolute than Fengyu, and he has been holding back his physical discomfort and chasing after him.

Every minute and every second, his internal organs were torn apart little by little in the high-intensity maneuver, but he was overexcited and over-secreted adrenaline, and he couldn't feel the pain of his internal organs.

No pain doesn't mean no injury, and when Feng Yu was injected with stimulants in the fifteenth minute, "Death" Tom. Smith was bleeding from all seven of his knots.

Of course, even so, it doesn't mean that the "Grim Reaper" will die. He fought at home, and as long as he was sent to the nutrition tank for first aid immediately after defeating Fengyu, he could still be rescued.

But at this time, Fengyu designed the final trap - using the No. 5 machine as bait to attract the "Grim Reaper" to make the final blow.

Although the original intention and process are somewhat inconsistent, the rational personality originally expected that the No. 5 machine would rely on the Jedi counterattack to finish the "Reaper" while being attacked, but I didn't expect the No. 5 machine to really reach the limit and strike.

But the "Grim Reaper" really died because of this trap.

After making the final attack, his body crashed into Unit 5 because it was too late to slow down or change direction, and all the impulse of the moment was absorbed by itself. Although the new version of "Grim Reaper" is strong enough to absorb this energy, Tom. Smith's body can't.

His overwhelmed entrails shattered in the violent impact like the fragile armor plates of the No. 5 machine, so in fact "Death" and "Storm" were both destroyed.

However, the No. 5 machine is an unmanned aircraft, and this kind of thing has no effect on Fengyu itself, just like in Taiya WH, he also used the No. 2 machine and the "New Asia" to die together.

So in fact, it was Fengyu who defeated the "Grim Reaper". Relying not on technology, but on tactics, this is the true victory of his stream of consciousness.

On the occasion of his death, looking at the "storm" that was cut off by himself, Tom. A heartfelt smile tugged at the corner of Smith's mouth.

In two years and three encounters, the "Reaper" took out three "Storms", namely No. 2, No. 1 and No. 5, and he himself was not hit by Fengyu once.

He won the battle, but lost the outcome of the battle, how to define winning or losing?

Of course, he knew that Fengyu would not die, and he didn't have the last laugh after all, but in all fairness, it was not his defeat, but the victory of the Awakened.

At the end of his life, no matter what future generations say about himself, in this moment, Tom. Smith believed he had indeed conquered "The Storm," and that was enough.

If Feng Yu was not an awakened person and could not fly the No. 5 machine with mental power, he would not be spared at this moment. Even his body couldn't withstand the ultra-high overload of 50g, and he had already killed himself.

It is the fate of soldiers to die on the battlefield, whether it is "death" or "storm", as long as the war does not stop, one day we will have to face this moment.

Life and death are a thin line in themselves. And the profession of pilots is the group of enthusiastic young people who bloom their youth on this line of life and death, and use their lives to compose epics and tragic songs in the war years.

No matter how much space they occupy in this magnificent movement, they are an indispensable note or melody in it, so that future generations will remember the blood, tears and trauma caused by the war.

"Storm" and "Grim Reaper", as the strongest pilots in the world, put an end to this movement at this dawn. At opposite ends of the Scarlet Skyline, they went their separate ways.

Beginning with fate, ending with fate, this is the scarlet skyline before dawn......

(If I have the chance, I hope that one day I can make this book into an anime work, and restore the grandeur of my heart's desire through more intuitive pictures.) Recently, I've seen a lot of famous web novels being animated, and to be honest, I'm jealous and jealous in my heart. But the reality is that the book is too niche for anyone to animate it. )

(Seriously, the time and effort I put into this book would have been much more profitable if I had used it to move bricks.) As a Gemini with a wide range of hobbies and three-minute heat, being able to stick to one thing for so long is enough to see that writing is indeed my true love, and this work is also my true love. )

(Alas, anyway, after two years of hard work, the book is finally finished.) More than 2 million words, a little more than my previous three completed works combined. It's hard work, but it's also fun. It's time to turn a new page and bring you a new story, and I hope that the book friends who have been with me for two years will continue to support me. )

(There's a short afterword later.) )
