Thirty-two hours ago, on January 22, the participating fleets from the Kuiper Belt and the Asteroid Belt, as well as the Saturn and Neptune systems, finally converged around the main fleet of the Jupiter system after about 20 hours of assembly.

The conjectures put forward by Verelli were in a sense confirmed by the intelligence. Almost two-thirds of the fleet from the asteroid belt has disappeared, and the most incredible thing is that they don't even have a chance to fight the biochemical fleet on an equal footing. The main combat ships, including the commander General Rancest, lost contact with the remaining combat ships shortly after making contact with the Biochemical Fleet, and waited until three successive waves of reconnaissance ship detachments were gone, and the surviving combat ships regrouped and returned to the Jupiter system.

Unlike the rest of the war zones, the battle in the asteroid belt is too unbelievable, and it is impossible for a large number of starships to disappear without warning, which even the most powerful space fleet cannot easily do, unless it is a special attack from the biological pulse.

As the information came one after another, in addition to being shocked, we also noticed the change in the position of the detachment in the main force, first of all, the detachment was arranged around the flagship detachment from the original logistics and supply ships, and secondly, the number of meetings with Commander Green and Commander-in-Chief Kramer on Callisto increased significantly.

"Are you sure that if you really have a super will, it is really possible to capture an interstellar combat ship without contact?"

"I can't prove it, but something like this is theoretically possible. After all, my perception and range are limited, and I can't use my abilities like a railgun or a beam cannon in the ravages of space. However, in previous battles, the Command Subhumans I have faced, as well as myself, have used similar tactics, injecting powerful electromagnetic pulses directly into the opponent's brain directly through the infantry helmet, causing the target to faint or die. Within the starship range, if there is a super will, the scale of this tactic is only expanded. ”

When Kramer and Green finally approached me via video conference, I realized that a new tactical plan was coming soon, and maybe it wasn't our last chance.

In the projection of the whole system, Kramer stood up, pacing back and forth, and Green in the other loop, which was sitting upright. The two generals have their own styles, but they are both rare famous generals. They should not have the opportunity to win such a high position in peacetime, after all, both of them are not sociable, but now in troubled times, the two have joined forces to form the last barrier of the solar system. I have a feeling that once these two people are gone, our solar system will also lose its future.

"Starships are different from infantry in that they are extremely resistant to interference, and their force field shields and special materials in the interlayer of their shells can absorb electromagnetic waves and cosmic rays very well. Even if all the super wills existed, how could he break through these barriers and launch his own thought pulses? ”

Kramer turned suddenly, as if he was standing next to me, giving me a sharp look. I shuddered, picked myself up again, and accepted the gaze of my boss.

"The Spirit Pulse isn't a beam cannon, in fact it doesn't go in a straight line."

“......”

Neither of them spoke, and I judged that they were waiting for me to continue explaining.

"It's like how a modified warrior like me invades an intelligent system. As long as the starship is still in contact with the outside world, can also receive electromagnetic signals, and propagate within it, it cannot truly isolate the penetration of spiritual impulses. Mental impulses are not a matter of physical energy value as we imagine. It's more about the mental intensity, and the lethality caused by the density of data and intelligence contained inside the pulse. ”

After saying this, I thought that only people like myself who had actually experienced it could understand it, and I looked at the two generals sitting next to me in the form of projections, hoping that they would at least understand.

The two looked at each other, and although they didn't speak, the message that everything was unspoken was clearly conveyed.

"Very good, we believe you, and we agree with Lieutenant Colonel Relis that the super will should exist, and the loss of the asteroid belt war zone should be caused by the mental impact of that super will."

I noticed that Commander Kramer had the following, and wisely did not answer.

With Kramer's nod, Green spoke. His cold, undulating tone, in such a tense moment, gave people a feeling of nonchalant.

"The tactical plan has been transmitted to your private circuit through the C3 tactical circuit, and we will do our best to maintain the existing front during this time, and we hope that you can succeed."

......

......

As Karen led the cruiser detachment to continue the assault, I recalled what the two generals had looked like when the previous mission was assigned. In retrospect, the two of them hardly ever gave orders to a certain detachment individually, as if my rapid response detachment was the first, and from this perspective, it can be seen how seriously they attached to this operation.

"Ping, don't you really need our help? As long as we are allowed to let go of our perception ability, we can better avoid the interception of enemy ships. ”

Karen's tone is like someone who is concentrating on something, deliberately dedicating his mind to talk to you. It's a sign of her giving it her all. Her ability to control starships, I know very well, in an ordinary combat state, even in the face of the encirclement of most enemy ships, she will become a scolding character, and will talk to you. Sometimes being on the battlefield with her will give people the question of whether this girl is really serious about fighting.

So, knowing that Karen was still doing her best, I naturally didn't bother her, but used a word or two to change the subject away from her with an excuse or two that was too dangerous.

At this time, it would be false to say that I was not nervous. I've had it before, and I've lost a good friend to it. I understand how painful it is to be hit by a mental shock to the brain chambers. What's more, the opponent this time may be the first to be seen, a real super consciousness that can control the biochemical fleet.

As the cruiser detachment broke into the group of biochemical ships, the dense blocking units in front of them suddenly disappeared, and the area in front of them became open.

"It's impossible for us to break through their defenses, which only means that they took the initiative to get out of the way."

Kalian's reminder made me ponder what was causing the Bio-Combat Ships to stop coming together.

With the terrifying psychic shock, I understood why the enemy ship suddenly retreated, this is because the starship of the Branders could not withstand the psychic attack of the super will.

"Ping, it's a little strange, I feel like a huge pressure is cruising around the hull, but I can't sense them, do you feel anything?"

I didn't have time to pay attention to Kalian's questions, because now I was like a boat that had been washed up in the rapids, and it was not easy to maintain the situation on the water, let alone communicate with people.

It wasn't until the mental shock really arrived that I realized that I was still underestimating my opponent.

This is a terrifying opponent with the mental strength of a commanding subhuman, and under the impact of his consciousness, I can only maintain a glimmer of light in my heart in front of me, barely maintaining my self-consciousness from collapsing. I don't care about what Karen said to me, how the situation in the outside world develops, and so on.

This situation was considered in advance, and for this reason, a special compartment was specially pretended to be in the control compartment of the starship cores, and their communication circuits were also designed by the technical department, allowing only a few frequencies of electromagnetic waves to pass through, so as to prevent the continuation of the mental shock.

At this point, I couldn't care about anything else, I just felt the starship shaking for some reason, and the sound of Kalen's communication loop and other noises were ignored by me, like a victim holding on to a string to maintain balance, and if I didn't pay attention, I could fall into the bottomless abyss.

The vibrations continued, the noise was high and low, and there were a few times when I felt that my consciousness was so weak that I was about to blend into the dark universe, and I could no longer distinguish between myself and my environment.

Eventually, that bit of self-awareness continued until the surrounding noise and vibrations fell silent, and the slight tremor of the starship in the tranquil environment was like the long breathing of a sleeping beast.

I came to my senses in such a peaceful state.

"Ping, you're awake, I thought you had been burned out by that super will."

Kalian's tone was a little excited, and the girls' greetings could be heard in the communication loop.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

"I don't know when you started to fall unconscious, so I can't say, maybe two hours."

"Did you record my coordinates in the ailment?"

"Hmm...... Is it really a super will that surpasses the imagination of ordinary humans? ”

Touched by Kalian's question, I needed to take a deep breath to gradually dissolve the sticky feeling of death.

“...... I don't know what it is, but the intensity of the mental stimulation it can emit is far greater than the most powerful commanding subhuman I've ever seen, a hundred, maybe a thousand times, and it's hard to imagine that even a transformed human can reach that level. ”

"Maybe that's no longer human."

There was something strange about Karen's voice, and I could sense that her words were clearly targeted.

"What? Do you have a super will-related memory of intelligence? ”

"I don't know, anyway, there's a legend in the core of our starship."

"Legends?"

"In the past, when the Sisterhood was strong, it was once invincible in the human world, and when I met the monster created by the Bellanders, thousands of sisters died under its attack, and it was because of that battle that the Sisterhood lost most of its backbone, and it was taken advantage of by the despicable people of Gaia."

Karen's explanation was succinct, but I was able to deduce the truth behind it. It is likely that her so-called legend is the reason why Mrs. Wall is what she is. If the legend is true, it means that the Poles had won a decisive victory over Madame Wolver in the previous period, and it should have relied on super-will. As for what the super will is, I estimate that the most likely is that it is an artificial creature of someone, which has unparalleled command and strong mental power, and it is theoretically possible for people in Poland with extremely strong genetic modification capabilities to create such a monster.

But another question immediately surfaced in the depths of my consciousness, which was already not light, can human beings really create beings beyond themselves? Or with the help of external forces.

As for what that external force is, in the ancient legends of the human world, there has always been a real alien civilization, the existence of a race that surpasses all human technology and is similar to a god-like race, could it be them?

Fatigue and mental exhaustion have led me to think that this is the only way to go, the road back should be easy, the future will no longer be bleak, at least we have the ability to contact threats in theory.

......

......

"What?! Let Kiana go back to Mars, it's a shame that you think of it, this is sending sheep into the tiger's mouth. ”

I understand that I can't afford to lose my temper at such a high-level combat meeting, especially in front of hundreds of middle-level officers, and not expose the contradictions at the top, which is the most basic quality of a commander, but I really can't agree with the plan of the headquarters, especially when it involves the interests of Kiana and them.

"Please calm down, the commander didn't ask for your opinion, Kiana is a major in the Wehrmacht, she has the ability to put her opinion forward, and she doesn't need you to intervene."

In the face of Green's reprimanding reminder, even though I knew that I was wrong, I still stared at him with a vicious look and did not relax. It's as if you turn your eyes at this time and lose.

Someone was tugging at the corner of my uniform, and I reluctantly turned my head to see Kiana's gentle expression.

"Thanks, but I can handle this myself."

She whispered to me, and then stood up in a standard military posture so that the people in the room could see her.

We were in the large conference room of the flagship Yunshan, and the officers of the fleet, large and small, participated in this important meeting, either in person or via video.

The topic of the meeting was to determine the tracking plan for defeating the biochemical fleet.

In fact, this is not a discussion meeting, the vast majority of officers are not capable of formulating tactical plans related to the overall situation, this is more like a mobilization meeting, the command tells all officers and soldiers, we have a way to destroy the enemy, now it depends on whether you are brave or not. Roughly the same effect is to be achieved.

However, there was a stir at the beginning of the meeting, and when I heard that the headquarters was going to send Kiana and her sisters to Mars to find the upper echelons of Avalon beneath Mars, and proposed that the unmanned fleet carry out an attack on the super will, I couldn't help but burst out.

"I, Kiana, on behalf of all 17 starship cores, agree with the command. We will break through the siege and go to Mars to find support from an unmanned fleet. ”

Ignoring my efforts, Kiana agreed. There was a commotion in the venue, and I could feel all kinds of different emotional factors flowing through the venue, such as surprise, doubt, indifference, jealousy, and so on. But the atmosphere of despair that permeated the troops was diluted a lot, and I think that was the purpose of Kramer's meeting.

"You have to think clearly, this operation will not necessarily bring you any benefits, but will make you risk falling back into house arrest, as for the success of the operation, it will not be of substantial help to you after victory."

Kramer spoke, his words almost a copy of what I was going to say to Kiana. It's just that I'm strange that Kramer shouldn't have taken the initiative to remind her about the benefits and risks.

"I've thought it very clearly, and in fact my sisters and I have discussed similar situations countless times, and the conclusion is the same. We are now one with the Jupiter system and the Provisional Government, and what you represent is a starport where the core of our starship can dock at any time for supplies, which is extremely important to us, and what we have to do now is to surround our own starport, so there is one thing you said wrong. Carrying out this mission is beneficial for our Starship Core, which is why I am here to agree to join the operation on behalf of all Starship Cores. ”

I sat in my seat and felt like a father watching my children grow up. It turns out that the girls have thought it through, and perhaps the last time Kiana had expressed her doubts to me, they were thinking about why they were here.

Apparently they have the answer and have their choice.
