Chapter 8: The Truth: The War of Annihilation
The next moment, everyone felt that a large black shadow suddenly appeared in front of them.
Everyone was frightened and instinctively jumped up to avoid it, but in an instant, they rose an unknown number of distances.
Looking down, a huge battleship swept past the place where several people had just stopped.
On the battleship, a white badge modeled after a top-down view of the Earth's northern hemisphere exuded a white glow.
Zheng Dong's gaze was fixed on the badge, and his body trembled slightly.
Then, the crowd saw a large number of warships painted with white badges appear, forming an arrow-shaped queue with thick flames spewing thick flames from their tails.
"What's that?!" Zhang Wenqi suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted.
Everyone looked and saw a blue planet covered in white clouds.
On one side of the planet is in darkness, while on the bright side, the continent takes on the outline of the Chinese coast.
"We're in space!" Zhang Wenqi exclaimed.
Wang Yachen and Hao Feng's eyes were shocked, they glanced at each other, and took a few quick breaths.
Zheng Dong didn't say a word, and watched the Earth Fleet meet the oval battleship group, with a painful look on his face.
"I, I was also a soldier of the Earth Space Force!"
After reaching a certain distance, the oval battleship group instantly launched thick white pillars of light, which tore through the void and soon arrived at the Earth fleet.
The expressions of the crowd changed drastically. Then, his gaze suddenly turned to the interior of the Earth battleship's flagship.
Everyone stood in the command cabin, and the dignified figures hurried by, and in front of the command module command platform, many figures stood upright, among them, except for the one in the front, the rest were illusory projections.
"Twenty-two years ago, Barnard's vanguard fleet invaded my homeland and retreated without a fight. But its aggressive nature has been exposed. Today, Barnard is on the earth, and our soldiers should do their best to spill their blood on the stars and defend our earth! ”
The man at the front was dressed in a military uniform with a gold stripe and a blue background, his voice was sonorous, and his eyes were resolute: "In this battle, the scientific and technological level of the enemy fleet is far higher than that of our army, and the only antimatter weapon that can carry out large-scale destruction to the enemy is rare and cannot be detonated by the enemy's interference. ”
"I don't know if any of us will survive, I just know that the earth is peaceful and peaceful, and it cannot be destroyed, as long as we have one man and one ship, Barnard will not want to be half a step closer to the earth! This battle should be a legend in the history of mankind! ”
The man faced the virtual screen, on which Barnard's fleet took the initiative to attack, heading towards the Earth fleet.
"Generals obey orders!"
"In!" The generals responded in unison.
"Meet the enemy!"
"Yes!" The leather boots made a sound at the same time, and the cheers of the generals resounded through the headquarters.
Then, the illusory projection vanished, leaving the man alone facing the porthole.
Outside the porthole, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, Barnard's fleet swooped down ferociously.
"Defend the tank with a spear." The man whispered, "Bow and arrow against artillery." This is a shame on humanity......"
"Report to the marshal, the range of the enemy's weapons far exceeds that of our department, and it is difficult for our department to approach!"
"The Qingdao ship, the Luoyang ship, and the Zhicheng ship were all destroyed!"
On the console, the information boards of each battleship turned gray.
The marshal turned his back to the crowd, and they could not see his face clearly, but only his steady, hoarse voice.
"When approaching 100,000 kilometers, all warships, release the destroyers!"
"Yes!"
"Onward! Advance! ”
The flagship also rushed forward, and Barnard's fleet gradually zoomed in on the view.
"Is this the first painting in the Templar?" Zheng Dong muttered.
Rumble!
A pillar of white light shot in.
"Avoid! ……”
The right side of the flagship's hull was instantly swallowed by a pillar of light, and only half of the control room was also melted, and you could directly see the vast starry sky outside and the molten iron dripping from the torn hole in the hull.
Several of the communications personnel on the right disappeared into the pillar of light, and one of them was only instantly melted with the upper half of his body, which was burning in the residual heat, blood mixed with flames.
"The cabin is damaged, the air pressure is out of balance!"
"Abandon the ship!"
The marshal looked back, looking at the tear with a solemn expression.
"I know him!" Zheng Dong exclaimed, "My college roommate, Xue Cheng! ”
"College roommates?" The crowd was confused.
Marshal Xue Cheng, escorted by several soldiers who rushed urgently, walked to the compartment on the left side of the hull and shouted, "Release the destroyer!" ”
"Release the Destroyer!" The remnants of the hull's intelligent systems give orders.
"Keep up with Xue Cheng!" Zheng Dong shouted, and then everyone moved uncontrollably into space.
Xue Cheng boarded a fighter boat and, like other destroyers taking off, flew towards the Barnard fleet group.
It was only then that everyone noticed that the universe was already littered with ship wreckage.
As the Earth fleet charged towards Barnard's fleet, the uncooled molten iron emitted a scorching red light, and the human soldiers who escaped from it struggled instinctively in space.
At this moment, Barnard's fleet of white pillars of light and railguns intertwined a brilliant network of firepower, strangling the human ships and destroyers trying to get closer.
"Forward!"
In the channel of the Earth fleet, there is only this one roar with a different pronunciation but the same meaning.
"Forward!"
"Forward!"
For a while, in front of Zheng Dong, the faces of human soldiers appeared, all of them resolute, roaring and glaring ahead.
"This is a battle that is bound to fail!" Zheng Dong cried.
Within a radius of less than 50,000 kilometers from Barnard's fleet, the Earth warships and destroyers were all turned into fireworks in the universe, and sincere lives were lost.
"Stop, run!" Zheng Dong stretched out his hand, tears flashing in his eyes.
"Forward!"
It was Xue Cheng's roar.
He piloted a fighter boat, drawing an incredible trajectory in space, and the intelligent system constantly prompted dangerous driving, flashing red.
In the end, he was hit by a railgun 30,000 kilometers away from Barnard's fleet group, and its huge force directly tore the destroyer boat, and Xue Cheng was reduced to ashes.
"Run!" Zheng Dong burst into tears.
However, not a single battleship or destroyer left the battlefield, and all of them charged forward, hoping to inflict damage on the enemy with antimaterial weapons, but not a single case of success.
The crowd looked at the scene of this tragic battle and fell into a deep silence. Maybe they can't understand the war, but they feel the determination and death of the Space Force soldiers.
Fearless sacrifice.
Eventually, Earth's outer space returned to dead silence.
The Barnard battleship passed through the wreckage of the Earth Fleet and headed for Earth.
"This is the decisive battle of the Barnard civilization invasion, and all the 1.3 million officers and soldiers of the Space Force were killed, and none of them were spared." Four-dimensional plane intelligent system opening.
"Am I one of the warriors?" Zheng Dong asked anxiously.
"You were stationed at the Pluto outpost, killed in the face of the first invasion of the Barnard civilization before the decisive battle began."
"Have I fought alongside them......" Zheng Dong muttered, "That's good......"
"This is the beginning of the truth." The four-dimensional plane intelligence system said, "After the Barnard fleet completely destroyed the armed forces of the earth, it launched a massacre of the surface humans. ”
Turning their eyes, everyone immediately returned to the surface, and they saw 100-meter buildings and prosperous streets, at this moment, these streets were full of people, and they looked at the sky.
A huge Barnard battleship brings a great shadow and descends on the city.
"Run!" Zheng Dong looked at those people and shouted with tears in his eyes.
"This is the proudest place of civilization on earth, and this is the dignity of civilization." The four-dimensional plane intelligent system said, "It is unbelievable that a group civilization with an individual of five billion individuals actually shows the dignity that only an individual civilization can have in the face of destruction." ”
The Barnard battleship shot pillars of light and a trajectory, destroying buildings and slaughtering people. However, the crowd glared at the Barnard battleship and did not flee in a panic.
The Barnard battleship came to an eerie halt when it was halfway through the slaughter.
In the dilapidated buildings and streets, more people bypassed the bodies of their comrades and appeared under the weapons of the battleship Barnard.
The silence lasted long before the Barnard began to slaughter again.
The hearts of the people were heavy.
"The massacre lasted one year and three months, and in the end, only 10,000 people in the world survived, collected by the Barnard civilization, and locked up in ships."
"These 10,000 people seem to have been carefully selected by Barnard, all of whom are greedy for life and afraid of death, and the Barnard civilization has erased all traces of human civilization and let them thrive on the surface of the earth, and itself has withdrawn from its sight."
"The Barnards attacked the Earth mainly because they were worried that the Earth's civilization would develop too quickly and threaten it, and they didn't need resources at all. But the reason they left behind ten thousand seeds was the power that all slow-growing civilizations aspired to. ”
"A technological explosion."
"The system exploded."
"They want to reenact the development of the earth's civilization and get a glimpse of the social reasons for the rapid development of the earth's civilization."
"There is also a control experimental group of the Barnard civilization on Mars, in which the human society is either sparsely populated or hierarchical, all of which are factors that the Barnard civilization considers to restrict its own development."
"It took tens of millions of years for the Barnard civilization to develop, but it only reached the seventh age of science and technology, and it took 70,000 years for mankind to develop and reach the fourth age of science and technology, which can be called a miracle."
"The current global society is a huge experimental bed, and outside the test bed, Barnard is watching all this coldly."
The voice of the four-dimensional plane intelligent system was calm, and everyone had different expressions.
Zheng Dong's body trembled slightly, anger and resentment surged in his eyes, he stood in the destroyed human world of the previous generation, looking up to the sky and roaring.
"I will slaughter Barnard!"
"Master, the truth has just been revealed, please continue to follow me and see your first four awakenings." Four-dimensional plane intelligence.
"Good!" Zheng Dong's tears slid down his cheeks, he looked at the devastated world, his voice mournful, "I remembered my first life......"
"Before the disaster, I was just a high school student with a dull and happy life!"
He wept, and fragments of the scene in the depths of his memory emerged one by one.
