Chapter 12: Breakthrough

It's another morning, and the Petite Pyrenees sun is dyeing the morning glow of the sky and the earth a golden glow, while the jungle is still shrouded in a milky white mist.

The tattered [monster] was running, and the huge mechanical paws stepped on a shallow stream, making a clattering sound and splashing water. At the end of the creek, there is a waterfall of more than ten meters on the plateau, and there is a waterfall above the waterfall. The sparse curtain of water hung on it, making a rattling sound, and the rocks of the surrounding valley were covered with moss.

[The Beast] jumped lightly onto the first waterfall, and then, without hesitation, it climbed onto the rock at the top of the second waterfall, but instead of turning over, it turned around and leaped, and after stepping over a shallow pool, it pouted and crawled into the jungle on the left. The color of the mecha ground has also changed to jungle camouflage that is difficult to distinguish.

More than ten minutes later, a golden earth [Apollo] appeared on the edge of a small waterhole between the two waterfalls, but it didn't look at the obvious climbing marks on the second waterfall, turned around, and flashed into the jungle on the left.

After another ten minutes, in the jungle, there was the rapid roar and explosion of energy cannons, as well as the sound of an angry scolding.

The outbreak of the cosmic war has plunged human society into apocalyptic chaos.

In the war zone, every city shuddered under fire, countless civilians were displaced, and their homes and hard-earned possessions turned into smoke in the flames.

The armies of different factions attacked each other, charging infantry, self-propelled guns covered by dense firepower, and as the mechs at the heart of the battle, carrying out precision strikes and breaking through the ground-based and air-based fighters, these killers were entangled to form a tragic picture with steel, blood and fire as the background.

From the sky, countless exploding light clusters are rising and falling on the vast planetary land, fields are scorched earth, cities are in ruins, and human beings are destroying their own civilization with such splendor.

And all this is just the beginning, which makes everyone who longs for peace and tranquility despair. They don't know when misfortune will befall them and their loved ones, and they don't know when this terrible thing will end completely!

Mankind has accumulated too many weapons, armies, conspiracies and hatred for this war, and everyone knows from the beginning that once a war breaks out, it will be a long and arduous process, and no side can easily win. The winner in the end will definitely lose a lot, and it will be a pyrrhic victory.

However, this battle still had to be fought after all, and no one could stop the war that had already started.

In particular, on May 25, 2062, when the heads of the two major military blocs, the Binart Empire and the Republic of Fiyan, coincidentally sent troops to the Carlston Galaxy between the two countries, the war finally broke out in the terrifying confrontation between the two superpowers!

Since May 30, 2062, 48 countries and 16 regions of more than 60 large and small countries and more than 20 autonomous regions of human society have been involved in wars.

Large countries, small countries, in different star fields combined into different joint front armies, the state apparatus is in full swing at this moment, countless armies made up of thousands of soldiers are assembled, replenished with weapons and equipment, and trained, waiting to go to the front

On the front line, on the planets filled with war, the two sides fought fiercely for every city, fought to the death in every military point, used steel armored troops, attacked every defense line of the enemy, slaughtered every target in the field of vision that did not belong to friendly forces, and every life disappeared in an instant, and one by one the unit numbers were canceled or merged.

The soldiers were dropped into the battlefield by armoured personnel carriers or transports, they defended or attacked, they strangled together, and in the end, some remained in their positions forever, while others, scattered, scattered in the plains, jungles or mountains, with no one to meet them, they could not find their troops, they could not find their allies, they could not find their way back, they had to trek alone.

Some were taken prisoner, some were killed by the enemy, some died in various accidents, and the lucky ones returned to their positions, and then, being assigned to another unit, were sent to battle again.

On the interstellar route, countless ground fleets are shuttling back and forth, there are transports for land and supplies, there are newly built new ships, there are reserve fleets that have been assembled from the rear to go to the front, and there are also wrecked ships that have retreated from the front line and are slowly sailing with scars.

These fleets, which cover every shipping route that humanity has, escort transport fleets, they assist land forces in occupying planets, and their fleets are stationed in space, using space carriers to release countless ground-to-air-based fighters into the atmosphere to destroy every target that needs to be destroyed.

They will also wander like wolves in the vastness of space, hiding in nebulae, behind a planet or in a meteorite belt, and when the prey appears on the course, they will pounce on it, swallow the prey in one gulp, and then quickly disappear into the vast expanse of space.

Whether it was a soldier or a general, whether it was a commoner or an emperor, everyone's life was completely changed, the theme of life was war, and everyone was struggling to survive in fear. People produce all the products associated with the war, turning metal into weapons and cloth into uniforms.

On the streets of the city, mechs and groups of soldiers passed by silently and quickly, the clean streets were already full of muddy water, and the prosperity of the past had turned into tattered neon lights on the streets, and the most lively place was the place where people lined up to buy food according to the political axe ration.

Due to the lack of energy, many of the flying cars have been parked in parking lots or on the side of the road, and only a few speculators with great powers can continue to enjoy fine wine and cigars, and can sit in the flying cars and go to some nightclub hidden hundreds of meters underground, converted from almost impregnable air defenses.

These people, in addition to the nobles of the imperial state, there are also some bold merchants, who rely on some unstable space jump points or a secret route full of dangers, to smuggle all kinds of embargoed materials, some with military backgrounds, and also do the business of smuggling weapons and even robbing merchant ships.

In addition to these occasional cameo pirates, real interstellar pirates are also rampant, they attack every target with oil and water, and then squander them to their heart's content, among these people, there are deserters, mercenaries, criminals, they are getting stronger in this troubled world, and some powerful pirates can even fight against small fleets of one or two destroyers.

The southeast of the interstellar map of the human world became the focus of the early stage of the war, and even the fierce battle between the Binarte Empire and the Republic of Feiyang in Carlston and the all-round confrontation between the Naga Federation and the Republic of Ryan did not take away people's attention from the southeast war situation.

The process of human conquest of the universe is the discovery of one interstellar hopping point after another, countless explorers piloted spaceships, through unknown interstellar hopping points, to explore the other side of the world, one galaxy after another was discovered, some are full of danger and useless public galaxies, and some are with immigrant planets and resource planets Paradise.

So whoever wants to conquer these galaxies, then the first thing they need to conquer is the space jump point, the shipping route, the material supply and the base for the army to be stationed and the base to advance.

Without these jumping points and routes, even the two galaxies on the map, which are only a few hundred light-years apart, are out of reach for humans who have not broken through the speed of light and have a lifespan of hundreds of years.

From the very beginning, Xiyue wanted to take the Lelei Federation, a small and medium-sized country with only three star fields, between the Binalte Empire and the Naga Federation in the middle, the Desik Empire in the south, and the Jeppen Empire and the Suss Empire in the east.

If the passage of the Lelei Atlantis Star Field, the Lelei Central Star Domain and the Hundred Curtain Star Domain is opened, the Western Covenant will be able to connect these countries into a "U" from the central to the south to the southeast and finally end in the east, and at that time, the Desik Empire will be supported by as far as Binart, Seuss, as close as the Naga Federation and Jeppen, to the center, it can destroy Puditok and Tatania, and to the southeast, it can attack the Salga Federation and open up another interstellar route to attack the Chakna and the Feyan Republic.

Because of the importance of the southeast battlefield, both sides have invested a lot of troops here. While the Seuss Empire was in serious confrontation with the Chackner Republic[***], it formed a Western Eastern Coalition with the Jeppen Empire to invade the Lelei Hundred Curtain Star Field. The Desik Empire, with the support of Binarte and the Naga Federation, attacked the Atlantis Star Field, forming a flanking attack with the east.

The Fijian League fully understands that it is far from enough to rely on the attack of the two small and medium-sized countries Puditok and Tatania on Desik and the support of the medium-sized Salega Federation to the Baimu Great Star Field, so the Feiyang Republic and the Chacna Republic formed the Southeast Expeditionary Force at the first time, and supported the Lelei Baimu Great Star Field through the Saljan Federation, and the Republic of Lane also strengthened the offensive against the Naga Federation with the support of the Central Feiyang Front.

On top of that, a coalition of forces from the Republic of Fyan and the Republic of Lane has set out from the Republic of Lane and made a detour through sixteen interstellar jump points, passing through the open airspace of two neutral regions and the outer star field of a small pro-Celestial country, and finally reached Gacharin. in order to contain the Desik Empire's unbridled attack on the Western Front of the Lelei Federation. He also led the resistance of Gacharin, who still did not dare to act rashly, throughout the three small countries of the Filipino Alliance.

All this, the fat man didn't know, he just controlled [logic] desperately to escape in the mountains and jungles, this is the third day, although he threw off the large army of the Mythical Legion, but Reinhardt behind him has always been with him.

All around, there are more and more enemies blocking the entire mountainous area, and in the sky, there are fighters hovering non-stop.

The fat man felt like a rabbit chased by a hound, and could only run forward without stopping for a moment, and kept running until he finally collapsed. Along the way, he cried and cried, begged and begged, and scolded and scolded, but Reinhardt never let him go, but chased him tighter.

In the past three days, the fat man has only nibbled on a few mouthfuls of dry food and slept for only two hours, and all this is done with the help of the little kid! If it weren't for the alarm and sentry of the little kid, if it weren't for the Skynet system's foresight, if it weren't for Limbo Weibu's unhindered passage through the jungle, he might have been killed by Reinhardt.

You know, although Warcraft] is the best in some aspects, it doesn't mean that it can run faster than the ninth generation [Apollo]!

Not only is [Apollo] faster than [Warcraft], but Reinhardt's hand speed is also higher than that of the fat man. The higher hand speed means that Reinhardt can run with more comprehensive control, every step of the mech is more reasonable, and the power of the engine and joints is more fully used, and the speed is also faster.

So, in order to get rid of Reinhardt, the fat man will have to use the "Limbo microstep" to traverse the jungle along the way. Only this magical pace, which requires forty-two movements, can make up for the gap between him and Reinhardt.

Now, however, the fat man did not know how far he could run, and he could barely lift his hands. Both mentally and physically, he has reached his limits.

The chariot [Apollo] behind him was still like the sun god driving the chariot, never tired.

Rely on Ling Bo to shake [Apollo] away again, and the tattered [Warcraft] runs all the way.

The little kid looked at Tian Xingjian with some concern, this fat man's face was abnormally red, the blood vessels under the skin were beating suddenly, and the green tendons on his forehead and temples were surging up one by one, looking a little hideous. On the console, his flying hands were shaking violently, as if he would stop at any moment, and he could never lift them again.

Forty-five movements per second, the fat man has been maintaining his limit for three full days, he doesn't understand, he has always been proud of a pair of fast hands, obviously feels that there is still potential, why he has never been able to break through this bottleneck.

This hand speed, since it was reached in the gravity chamber of Gariparan College, has been more than a year, and it is like a big lock, locking itself tightly.

After a frantic dash, [Monster] suddenly lost its balance, and the mech slammed into it as it dodged a large tree. The force of the impact shattered the trees, and the mech fell straight to the ground, protruding from the ground joints, shoveling away the fallen leaves and dirt piled up on the ground, and sliding for a long distance, finally stopping after overpowering several small trees in succession.

The fat man stared blankly at his hands.

The two green tendons were exposed to the ground, silently resting on the lever and the keyboard, and there was no other sensation except for a bout of pain and a strange tingling. It's as if you've lost contact with your body, and no matter how hard you try, you can't move.

Looking at the red dot on the radar that was approaching him, the fat man was discouraged.

[Apollo] approached his target unhurriedly, and no one knew that in this mecha, which still looked dazzling on the surface, Reinhardt, who had always been calm and elegant and neatly dressed, was already embarrassed to the extreme.

In the past three days, he also didn't have a moment of rest, and if it weren't for the hand speed of fifty-four movements per second that allowed him to have a faster speed than that tattered [Monster], he would have given up this hard chase long ago. While the fat man gritted his teeth and insisted, he also gritted his teeth and insisted, he really wanted to know how far this [Warcraft] that could drag himself to this point could run and how long it could last.

On the new tracker, the target has stopped.

"Presumably, that fat man is also very depressed, no matter what tricks he plays, no matter how his mecha interferes with radar blocking communications, he is caught up by himself again and again." Reinhardt smiled coldly, if it weren't for the new tracker developed by the Binalte Empire that could collect vibrations within ten kilometers and analyze and locate them, he really wouldn't have been able to keep track of this sneaky fat man.

[Apollo] jumped up a small hill and stopped, and a hundred meters away, the tattered [demonic beast] lay quietly in the middle of the woodland, and a broken tree fell beside it, and the canopy was so dense that it covered half of its body.

"Boom!"

Without hesitation, [Apollo] raised his hand and there was a bubble, and the olive-shaped energy cannonball passed through the woods, submerged into the tattered [Warcraft] blue energy shield shining body, and exploded in the violent fluctuations of the energy shield. The canopy of the fallen tree was shattered, and [the beast's] body swung like a dead fish in the shock wave before stopping.

"It's over!" The fat man looked at the little boy blankly, blinking his little eyes with tears in his eyes, thinking that he would not be able to see the world soon, and finally couldn't help crying.

The little kid trembled, thought for a long time, and finally said timidly: "Why don't you go out and talk to him?" It's better to die one than two, right? ”

"Boom!" Another energy cannonball hit the [Warcraft], in the violent vibration of the mecha, looking at the hateful face of the little bart, the fat man only felt anger rise from his heart, a stream of hot air surged up the dantian, and slapped the little fart to the ground, and said angrily: "Greedy for life and afraid of death, Lao Tzu really feels ashamed for you!" ”

Seeing the little kid looking at him blankly, the fat man said angrily: "Am I not right? ”

"Idiot!" The little kid suddenly jumped up and screamed, "You whip me, don't you have the strength to run away?!" ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment, looking at his suddenly smart hands, waking up like a dream, he pulled the lever suddenly, and his right hand knocked on the command keyboard like a rainstorm, [logic] in the roar of the engine, his hands propped up, and almost at the same time as the third energy cannonball arrived on the ground, he jumped out violently.

"Boom!"

In the sound of the explosion, the earth that was thrown into the sky crackled and knocked down, and the violent shock wave lifted out the rolling and crawling tattered [Demonic Beast].

[Warcraft] turned a few somersaults, and finally flashed into the jungle, the red energy cover, as if it was a thin piece of paper, as long as it was a little more light, it could be torn to pieces!

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" One after another, energy cannonballs exploded rapidly in the jungle, but there was no more gain, and Reinhardt almost gritted his teeth as he watched [the monster] disappear into another hillside!

[Apollo] poured out cannon fire like madness as he rushed down the hill, and Reinhardt swore that he would never give the damn fat man three more days, he would settle the battle in ten minutes!

The speed of the hand was raised by Reinhardt to the limit of fifty-four movements per second, and [Apollo] was like a golden lightning bolt, slashing into the jungle, and the ferocious rush made people frightened.

However, ten minutes passed, and the frantically rushed [Apollo] never found the tattered [Demonic Beast] again, Reinhardt stared blankly at the vibration on the new tracker to collect the signal, and found that no matter how desperately he tried to speed up, the signal was getting farther and farther away from him.

[Warcraft] rushed to the road, the tears on the fat man's face were still overflowing, this is tears of joy, there is nothing more popular than escaping death, the fat man at this moment is in heaven.

The sound of the cannonballs exploding on the ground was getting farther and farther away from [Logic], and the fat man was getting more and more excited, but he didn't notice at all that the speed of [Logic] was much faster than before!

This tattered [Warcraft] mecha was like a gust of wind in the jungle, and the trees on the forest didn't seem to have the slightest effect on it. It just scraped through the leaps and turns, rolling up countless dead leaves behind it.

On the mecha computer of [Logic], a line of data is frantically improving, 2400, 3000, 3100, 3200, and finally, stopped at 3350.

Nearly 56 movements per second!

At this time, Tian Xingjian didn't know that his body, after going through martial arts cultivation, had already undergone a qualitative change, and his hand speed finally broke through his limit in three consecutive days of extreme sports, in the unconscious explosion of potential, and at the moment of life and death.
