The sky slowly turned from a deep black to a leaden gray, allowing the brightness to barely maintain a level where you could see with the naked eye. Over the next few hours, as the clock moves towards noon, the brightness will gradually increase to the level of a cloudy day before a thunderstorm - but not stronger, the brightest natural light the continent can enjoy, for more than forty years, and for at least twenty years to come.

An armored command vehicle drove over a muddy road, and the commander was a major with a face almost as gloomy as the sky, and at this moment he was frowning at a report that popped up from the helmet panel: "They were still here last night?" ”

"Yes sir, we've rebuilt the site, and they're here until at least five in the morning." One soldier replied on the communication channel, "Judging from the traces of the scene, it should be four MF1s, two heavy shields, and at least 80 mecha infantrymen." ”

"It matches the numbers in the intelligence, it's the sixth mixed squad." The Major muttered to himself as he turned to the others in the command vehicle, "But our plane didn't spot them last night?" ”

A lieutenant replied a little embarrassed: "The model we used last night was the KF4 unmanned fighter, which is only sensitive to heat sources, and if the target covers its own hot parts, it can evade KF4 reconnaissance...... The target unit can do this if it is prepared in advance. ”

"MF1 is good to say, it takes at least five hours for the heavy shield to cool down to dodge KF4! And the mechs of infantry...... They use the self-circulation system all night? They don't know that this will accelerate the consumption of armor power? You know, they can't even have a supplement until they reach the Fifth War Zone! The Major's voice slowly became louder, "There are five types of fighters we can dispatch, and their means can only evade KF4!" But they got it right?! Who will convince me that there are really no sympathetic guys in the War Department who are ventilating the news! ”

This is a very serious accusation, and several people in the command car looked at each other, but no one dared to answer this mouth.

The major also knew that he was just venting meaninglessly, so he finally shook his head and gave the order: "Keep tracking." ”

"But the lieutenant who spoke before ...... commander was obviously the only one in the car who had the right to speak, so he raised a question, "That's just the remnants of more than a hundred people, if they want to go to the fifth war zone, the garrison on the road is enough to deal with them, why do we need to chase them specifically?" ”

The major's face turned two points darker: "How do I know? This is a direct order from above, and we can only carry it out! ”

The two reconnaissance off-road vehicles in front of the command vehicle have been restarted, the command vehicle has also roared again, and the major's voice has sounded in everyone's ears: "Remember, we have only one task, that is, to completely eradicate this unit, and we must not let a single person reach the fifth war zone!" ”

If it were in peacetime, this order would only be regarded by the veterans as a fuss: on the main battlefield of their own side, with the advantage of nearly ten times the strength and all-round intelligence suppression, they can deal with a rabble of temporary combinations that do not even have follow-up supplies, and can also mobilize friendly forces from other units to assist in the pursuit, what suspense is there in this kind of action?

But now, a rumor is quietly spreading among the soldiers: "There are 'mutants' in that unit!" ”

**************************

The "Mixed Task Force 6" stopped by a small river. Originally, according to Zhao Yu's intentions, it should have accelerated its speed, but this improvised patchwork army obviously had more complicated relationships to sort out, and the result was that everyone wasted extremely valuable time staying here, and the direct commanders of each unit were holding a meeting in the woods next to them, and God knows what to talk about.

"You know, old man, some people say you're a mutant." Hunter, who was left in the cockpit, said suddenly.

Zhao Yu was sticking his head out of the top cover of the "Death Messenger" to breathe at this time, and was stunned when he heard the voice in the car: "Huh? What the? ”

"Mutant, old man, what do you think?"

Zhao Yu recalled the concept of "mutant" and shrugged: "I don't have that ability. ”

The so-called mutant is a new concept that has only emerged in the last two years. Due to the transformation of the Buttermins to the frozen people to stimulate the "special function", this has attracted the attention of various governments, setting off a wave of transformation and development of human potential, of course, this craze is mainly spread in the military, it is said that a large number of soldiers have been extremely genetically modified, trying to trigger stronger abilities, but most of them have failed, the good luck has not changed in the slightest, the bad luck has lost their lives, and the bad luck has lost the characteristics of "human" and has become a miserable test subject.

This kind of modification experiment is undoubtedly against humanity, and the Buttermins have made it clear that they will not provide technical support for the experiment, but who cares about it in these crazy times? As long as the "Navigation Restriction Order" and the "Countdown to Death" are still there, this crazy era will always be unscrupulous.

However, there is also news that the test has a very low probability of a "finished product". The transformed person known as the "mutant" doesn't know which set of genes' potential is triggered, and has a superpower that completely surpasses that of humans, becoming a treasure for all parties, and there is even more outrageous news that there are mutants who have appeared on the battlefield as a formed army.

"Do you think there are any mutants?" Hunter asked.

Zhao Yu shook his head: "I don't know...... In my time, the study of the human body was just beginning, and the potential of the human body was depicted in all kinds of fantasy works, as if anything was possible, but reality was another matter. ”

"Compared to the aliens, we're in the beginning of our life." Hunter agrees with Zhao Yu's words, "People in this era have been genetically adjusted before birth, and each of us can live to be two hundred years old in good health if we are not killed." The aliens' technology is not convincing, and they can't even handle their technology, and the earthlings can succeed on their own? Hey, can you believe it? ”

Zhao Yu touched his head: "But the Buttermins people also can't understand the potential of human beings on the earth, right?" ”

"Never believe the words of the aliens, who knows if they deliberately said that to induce humans to do stupid things?" Hunter said gloomily, "If they hadn't deliberately misled back then, how could the earth have fallen to this point?" ”

"I think they ...... Forget it, let's not discuss this, I have a generation gap with you. Zhao Yu smiled bitterly, "Considering that we have to fight side by side for a long time, it is better to maintain this friendship." ”

"You're right, old man, after all, we are all earthlings, and we can't hurt our feelings for the sake of aliens."

All earthlings born in this era have a grudge against the Buttermins, believing that they are the ones who have ruined the hope of the earth.

After the end of the first interstellar war, the cooperation between Earth and Bartmins was very successful at first, the aliens generously provided their own technology for the earthlings to use as a reference, and the Earth racked its brains to apply these technologies that were hundreds of thousands of years ahead of itself to the Earth civilization, and the Earth civilization was like a satellite launched on an alien rocket from this moment, speeding forward at a stunning speed.

In 2070, humans on Earth, who were originally too lazy to develop the moon, landed on Mars for the first time.

In 2088, Earthlings set foot on Europa's snowy lands with ambitions to build a base there.

Of course, there is also a group fight with high technology, the third world war from 2092 to 2094 was fought vigorously, but this time the belligerents used alien technology to fight a space war, which actually had no impact on the earth's environment, and it was even more ironic that all the warring parties used the same level of technology, even the weapon manufacturing process and cycle were the same, and the difference in resource consumption was negligible, and the war evolved into a long-term stalemate, and it may not be possible to distinguish the winner for a hundred years - after discovering this, An armistice was sensibly signed.

Peace is back on Earth, technology continues to advance by leaps and bounds, and the people of Buttermins are still responsive, and everything looks good.

The only thing that makes the earthlings feel a little uneasy is that the Buttermins seem to have always been interested in encouraging the earthlings to explore space. Since the first cooperation agreement with the Earth, they have voluntarily opened up the qualification to carry a starship, allowing any earthling to take their starship to the vast universe for free, with a fixed route to the star "Tianyuan IV" in the constellation Bojiang, 10 light-years away, which is said to be the location of the closest extraterrestrial civilization to the Earth, and is also the border of the civilization community, through which to other more prosperous and developed civilizations.

The idea is good, but the problem is that this service initially became a convenient door for criminals to escape justice, until the criminals woke up to the fact that the journey would need to be frozen for 75 years, that they might never see their compatriots and hear from Earth again, and that they would not be offered a return ticket (in the words of the Buttermins, that is, they hoped that the earthlings would bravely go out on expeditions instead of staying at home), and this kind of thing was not much different from lifelong exile, and they stopped and were replaced by travelers who had nothing to do on Earth, people who had nothing, Heavy lover of extraterrestrial civilizations, etc.

In addition to opening the shipping route, the Buttermins have also been making suggestions, hoping that the earth civilization will make a plan to leave the solar system and enter the universe as soon as possible, because this can reflect the enterprising spirit of the earth civilization - this suggestion is of course also vigilant by the earthlings, many people question the motives of the aliens, you must know that the earth civilization has only entered the space age for more than a hundred years, and it is only a rookie in the universe, how can it be naïve enough to think that the space is all amiable neighbors and will not pose the slightest threat to themselves? With the current level of technology of the earthlings, even if they leave the solar system, they will be killed by people in minutes, and they will be killed by those aggressive civilizations in the solar system to exterminate the human race......

In short, the earthlings have made up their minds to move forward step by step, and those stunned young people who go to the constellation of the Bojiang Constellation ignore it, the main planning of the earth's civilization must be prudent and prudent, since we have such good conditions, why don't we develop our own galaxy first? Why do you have to spy on distant extraterrestrial galaxies?

The Buttermins have been silent about this.

Until the arrival of the day called "Judgment Day" by later generations of earthlings.

***************

Zhao Yu stopped thinking about the "past" and saw Borg coming out of the woods from a distance, looking unhappy as if he had been owed a lot of debt.

"What's wrong, Captain?"

"Those idiots, they're still going to do it themselves." Borg said with a calm face, "They didn't believe me. ”

Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, and then reacted: "You don't believe me, right?" ”

"You don't believe me." Borg said coldly, "I have repeatedly vouched for your abilities, but they don't want to believe it. ”

"So?"

"Only about a third of the people will go with our car." Borg looked around irritably, "These idiots will only take their own people to their deaths!" ”

Hunter whistled: "Stupid earthlings......"
