On December 31, the 15th year of the US-Asia Chronicle, many things that have happened in the past 15 years are unforeseen for those who have experienced that specific historical period of confrontation and integration of Asian and American cultures. Many of the things I expected were crushed by the wheel of history and ended without a problem. And many more things may not be what you want, but they are being pushed by violence to intensify. In this way, in the noisy sound of firecrackers and the sad music of the play, everyone once again came to the end of the year.

There are still a few hours before the countdown to the New Year, but with the mirage as the center, the colorful fireworks have risen into the air and spread to the surrounding Yaning land, which can be called "the fire tree and silver flower never sleep". The night sky is lit up in a variety of ways: traditional fireworks with butterflies spinning on one side and spraying flowers on the other, and white parachutes that look like dandelions falling from the sky after they are in full bloom. There are also traditional stories told about Yaning or Meda Busoya, such as the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, the warbler singing and swallowing the dance, the hundred birds and the phoenix, the heavenly maiden scattering flowers, and the motifs of Orps and his lover...... It is spectacular, taking the audience to temporarily forget the sadness and unhappiness of reality, travel through time, and relive the good times of the past.

Under the cover of colorful fireworks, a Valkyrie Flying Fortress quietly flew to the open sea.

Through the hanging window of the plane, Hong Yuesheng could see the full moon hanging in the night sky outside, glowing a ghostly red, and a blue Yaning dragon fireworks roared by. "There are still ten minutes to arrive at the target location, this time you are really here, be careful." Physician Emily's voice came over the communicator, and she was using a private channel that only she and Hong Yuesheng could hear.

"Don't worry, I don't want to be on your operating table again......" Hong Yuesheng and his team were sitting in the Lionheart mecha, divided into two rows and hung in the drop cabin at the bottom of the Valkyrie.

"Don't say it's unlucky!" Emily immediately interrupted Hong Yuesheng to continue, "...... I know a nice little bar, when you come back maybe we can ...... together"

"The trumpet has sounded! The harbor is over there, and the ship has set sail! Her voice was interrupted by the sudden sound of singing in the cabin, it turned out that according to the traditional habit of the soldiers of Meda Busoya, there was a small band of violinists and flutists who played the song of the send-off before the battle, and they were now standing in the middle of the two rows of mechas, and the music was so lively and passionate that the white tiger couldn't help but hum along:

"Let's go!

Bring our boots, our weapons!

Let's party!

Young and beautiful girls are waiting for us to show up!

Come on, guys, hug the beauty!

When we return victoriously, we will be able to have fun with them! ”

Let's party! ”

"Hey! Can you be quiet! The green snake next to him nervously interrupted the white tiger.

The sound of firecrackers outside the plane was like artillery fire, and the body of the green snake trembled involuntarily. Although the simulation exercise has been carried out many times, today is the first time that the actual combat has been conducted.

"Are you alright, dear?" Bonnie's voice came through the headphones.

"Of course it's fine!" Facing his lover's voice, the green snake slapped his swollen face and became fat, but he still reprimanded the white tiger: "But your southern and northern accents have influenced my thinking!" Men need time to think quietly! ”

("My man is handsome, isn't he?") Across the communicator came Bonnie's whispering voice boasting about the faint voice of the green snake.

Having said that, even through the thick mecha, you can feel the shiver of the green snake.

A mechanical hand was gently placed on the shoulder of the green snake, and the green snake turned around and found that it was Hong Yuesheng.

"The ...... of the second master"

Hong Yuesheng nodded quietly to the green snake, and when she saw Hong's eyes, the green snake swallowed her saliva and calmed down a little.

"It has been confirmed by the dimension that it is close to the enemy's target position, ready to be airborne!" The radio starts playing in the camera.

"This is your first actual battle, so be sure to remember what is taught in the training!" The red-haired Arya's voice was heard through the mecha intercom.

"All ready, countdown begins!" The radio and Arya's voice intertwined.

Hong Yuesheng shook her head from side to side, crossed her hands and stretched her mecha arms.

"Remember," the red-haired Arya finally admonished, "the fear of the fearful brings the greatest courage." ”

The bottom hatch of the "10,9,8......" transport plane began to open, and the cold wind on a winter night "whoosh!! As soon as he entered the cabin, he could see through the mecha that he was in the air below, and the exploding fireworks were blooming under his feet.

"Gross!" The green snake looked down and immediately spit directly into the mecha.

Zhong Jiu's voice was transmitted to Hong Yuesheng's ears alone: "Hey! Brother, God is with you. ”

“4，3，2，1！” The red sirens at the junction between the shoulders of all the Mechs and the Valkyrie Flying Fortress flashed, and then the safety buckle opened, and all seven mechs of the Lionheart Squad were projected from the Valkyries.

The sound of the whizzing wind instantly sounded in my ears, as if the whole world was in my arms.

"Cool!" This is the first time Hong Yuesheng has fallen from a high sky, and he enjoys this thrill from the bottom of his heart. He looked around through the full-view monitor, and was about to look for the green snake and the white tiger, when he heard "Damn it!! Ahh The green snake fell straight down from his side. Then the white tiger passed by him singing:

"Let's go!

Young and beautiful girls are waiting for us to show up!

Let's party!

When we return victoriously, we will be able to have fun with them! ”

"Don't open the parachute now!" The red-haired Arya maintained the command of the whole process: "Wait until you are below the radar monitoring area of the Sunset Goddess before you can open the parachute." ”

Hong Yuesheng watched the altimeter in front of her keep decreasing.

"Wait!"

"Hit the ground right away!!" The green snake's shrill never stopped.

"Wait!!" Red-haired Alya raised her voice.

The Sunset Goddess finally emerges from the clouds, a medium-sized cargo ship with two decks, and its deck grille shelves are like neat pigeon cages with tall containers.

It wasn't until the altimeter number entered a thousand meters that the red-haired Arya ordered: "Open the umbrella!" ”

Hong Yuesheng followed the instructions and pressed the parachute button on the control engine, and the umbrella bag on the back of the Lionheart King mecha opened with a "bang", and the resistance of the wind dragged the entire mecha into the air, like a bat soaring in the night sky.

Several other mechs also opened their parachutes one after another, including the frightened Green Snake, which finally opened its parachute.

In the wheelhouse of the Sunset Goddess, the crew is also making an exception to celebrate the last day of the year, the last day of the Meiya chronicle comes from Meda Busuya, which is not a festival for the Yaning people, but this does not prevent everyone from finding a small excuse for themselves to have a drink. Behind them, the Lionheart squad had quietly landed. When it almost fell, Hong Yuesheng and the team members pressed the button to unload the parachute, and the parachute behind them rolled and fell into the sea behind them, and the heavy mecha successfully landed on the aft deck surrounded by containers without a sound, and the alert lion face of the mecha fell with a "click", and his eyes glowed red.

“No！ No! No！！！ "Only the green snake missed the landing point, and fell towards the place where the deck meets the sea, and it was about to fall into the sea.

A crew member in the wheelhouse of the Sunset Goddess finished drinking the rice wine in his hand, with a cigarette in his mouth, and turned to walk out of the ship to relieve his hands. Not far behind him, the green snake's mecha was about to hit the edge of the deck when it was pulled back by a large hand.

Hearing the thud, the crew who was whistling to urinate in the sea turned their heads to see that the pitch-black deck area was surrounded by containers, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. So he whistled again and went on to untie his hands.

Behind the container at the end, it turned out that Hong Yuesheng dragged the green snake's mecha back in time, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry, the second master ......"

"Unit 1 reports that all members have successfully landed."

“Yeah!” Hearing Hong Yuesheng's voice, Zhong Jiu, the red-haired Aliya's remote control command room burst into a burst of cheers, looking out from the hanging window on the wall, it was a dark blue ocean. It turns out that the entire command room is located in the new Manta II amphibious submarine, and unlike the Type I, whose main function is a rescue aircraft, the Manta II has a fully strengthened power and force system, and the shell is made of biomimetic paint, so that it has a smooth skin like an aquatic animal to minimize resistance, but in order to ensure its agility, further strengthening of the armor is sacrificed. "Ok, your first task is to find the target person: Liu Yuetai, and all the people and information related to him, and the battle begins!"

When the crew of the Sunset Goddess, who was in charge of patrolling, was looking up at the fireworks thrown into the sky on distant land, a pair of mechanical hands stretched out from behind him, grabbed his head violently, and twisted it to the side, the crew was killed, and Hong Yuesheng manipulated the mecha to emerge from the shadows.

"I'm in charge of sweeping the deck area, and you're in charge of searching the lower cabin area." With that, the Lionheart squad began to disperse.

Hong Yuesheng activated the newly equipped magnetic levitation low-altitude flotation device on the soles of his feet, coupled with the thrusters behind the mech, so that the heavy body could slide forward in a low altitude close to the ground, avoiding the sound of the mecha landing, and the result was also very good: the huge Lionheart mecha actually sneaked on the deck as fast as a rugby player with an ice blade.

His perception ability has been further expanded by the neurons of the Lionheart mecha, even if he does not rely on vision, just the guidance of perception can already allow him to predict the danger in advance and flexibly dodge, in the process of his gliding around the hull from the stern, or sneak attack from behind, or act before the crew reacts in time, he has knocked down several patrolling crew members all the way, and smashed the monitor camera in time, and the clouds and water are all in one go.

"Handsome!" The Valkyrie, suspended in the air, used a high-powered camera to photograph Hong Yuesheng's movement curve, which attracted admiration in the manta ray command room, and felt like watching a ballet performance on ice.

Images of the action were also transmitted to the Governor's Palace, where Governor William, accompanied by Mr. Stephens, Victor, and other high-ranking officials, was watching the live footage on the big screen, not only the officers, but also the researchers in the room recording and analyzing the mecha data in time.

"I_doubt_there_are_many_people_among_our_military_who_have_the_ability_of_expert_control_Mechanical_heart. (There are probably not many people who can manipulate the mechanical heart mecha so freely, even in our army.) Rupert, an intelligence expert, said.

Mr. Stephens also nodded to Governor William, agreeing with the opinion.

What_do_you_think(What do you think?) Sitting in his seat, Victor turned his head sideways and whispered to the silver fox behind him.

The silver fox, who has always been taciturn, was silver from her hair to her eyebrows, but a faint smile appeared on her bright red lips, and she bowed down and replied to Victor:

"I'm_pretty_interested_to_play_against_him. (I'm interested in fighting him.) ）”

A crew member finally spotted Hong Yuesheng in the second deck area below the main deck of the Sunset Goddess, and the crew was about to run to ring the ship's siren, when Hong Yuesheng's newly equipped small machine gun loaded with silencers on his shoulder had burst through the crew's palms and throats.

"Uh-uh-uh......" The crew bent over their bleeding throats, but every time they made a sound, their breath came out of the bloody hole in their throats, with white blood foam, but they couldn't make a cry for help. During the struggle, Hong Yuesheng's mecha had already jumped in front of him with the power of the jet of the back thruster, knocking him down in an instant.

"Don't move!! Stay where you are!! A crew member rushed out of the cabin attached to the second deck, holding a machine gun behind him.

"I advise you to stay where you are, too." Hong Yuesheng didn't turn around, and replied lightly, a familiar spiritual feeling was getting closer and closer.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" The crew didn't understand Hong Yuesheng's words, but their mouths were still stubborn. He turned his head sideways to report to the communicator on his shoulder: "Report, ......found on the second deck" He suddenly felt a figure enveloping him from the air behind him, and quickly turned around and raised his gun, but before he could pull the trigger, he was trampled under the feet of a huge blood-red body that fell from the sky. The water flowed down the mech's wavy short cape-shaped shoulder armor and soft curved body, apparently fresh from the waterway.

"Hello? Here is the cab. Feed! Speak......"

Hong Yuesheng stomped on the communicator dropped by the crew on the deck, and looked at the red mecha: "I don't need to help." ”

"Humph! Don't get me wrong," Brunhilde's voice came from the red mech, "I just don't want you to clumsily get the enemy to turn on the alarm." She raised her hand to the right, and without looking, the light silencer gun in her hand opened fire and hit a crew member on the bridge tower in the distance.

"Why is my sister here?" Manta Ray Nakahisa asked.

"How can I manage my boss......" replied the red-haired Arya helplessly.

The crew in the wheelhouse of the Sunset Goddess did not get a reply from the patrol officers, so they quickly ran outside, looked at the deck, and saw two mechs in the distance, he turned back in panic to pull the alarm, but hit a steel wall out of thin air.

"Hey, handsome guy~" It turned out that Bonnie's improved Exosuit was in front of the crew, throwing a flying kiss at him, and then knocking the crew unconscious to the ground. And at the same time, the tank girl had already thrown the driver in the cab out of the window.

"Report sir, the cab has been secured." From the captain's room, Bonnie gestured to Brunhild on the second deck.

"Report to the sir, the aft deck area is under control."

"Report to the sir, the bridge tower is under our control."

Hong Yuesheng looked around, and the members of the Manta Ray Squad also manipulated the Exosuit to successfully board the ship from the bottom of the water and control the deck area.

"My manta ray squad has done everything that needs to be done, what are you doing?" When Brunhilde and Hong Yuesheng walked side by side to the entrance of the cabin, the two were still bickering.

"Don't underestimate my men!" Hong Yuesheng did not show weakness.

As soon as the words fell, there was a vibration caused by an explosion under his feet.

"Two masters!" The voice of the green snake came from the communicator: "The enemy has discovered us!" I would like support!! Then there was another flurry of gunfire.

"......" Listening to the sound of gunfire, a big drop of sweat fell from Hong Yuesheng's head.

"Are you sure you're not here to make trouble?" Although Brunhilde's red mecha face was expressionless, her appearance was predictable.

At this time, the hatch in front of the two men was kicked open, and as their whereabouts were discovered, more armed men on board rushed to the deck.

"I'll solve the problems of my subordinates." Hong Yuesheng manipulated the mecha's right hand to draw the saber from the armor of his left arm, and rushed towards the enemy in front of him to fight in close combat, but Brunhilde had no intention of backing down at all:

"Thank goodness for not stumbling over the task!" Her arms were outstretched, her hands retracted, and the diamond hair spun out of its original position with a "woo-woo" sound.

The two rushed towards the enemy side by side, like two churning beasts, blood radiant, fighting and advancing at the same time, neither of them was to be outdone.

The sound of the two bickering in the manta ray's command room even drowned out the sound of the fight, and the faces of Zhongjiu and the red-haired Arya were wrinkled when they heard it.

Seeing that the people who were constantly repelling the rushing out, the hatch in front of him was in front of him, but the hatch was not big, far enough for two mecha more than three meters high to pass through, and Brunhilde was facing the hatch, so he didn't plan to give way at all.

"Hong Yuesheng! Captain Brunhilde! Keep your distance, you two are going to bump in! The red-haired Arya warns both through the communicator, but the two men have no intention of heeding the advice. Finally, Captain Brunhild entered the cabin through the hatch, and Hong Yuesheng hit a hole in the cabin wall and entered the cabin at the same time.

"I can't do it! It can't be done! The usually calm red-haired Arya angrily took off her headset and stomped her foot. Nakahisa put his hands behind the back of his head and whistled.

In the cabin at the bottom of the cabin, a crew member ran in and reported: "Report! There are enemies invading from the air and by water! ”

Several images of attacks have been projected on multiple screens on the walls of the cabin, with one of the Lionheart mechs and the red amphibious mechs fighting both friend and foe.

In front of the screen sits a figure in a black cloak, his face hidden in shadow by a huge cloak hat, he stares at the screen and his voice is low:

"It's finally the day again."
