“…… Right! We have confirmed that the President has just convened an emergency meeting of the Cabinet at Icarus with the participation of the Cavalry Ambassadors, and we are not sure what this has to do with the already expanded missile attack on the Turkish Straits area, according to unconfirmed information, the strategic alliance between the League and the Cavalry has suddenly made heavy progress, and it is known that the main problem in the marathon negotiations between the Alliance and the Cavalry is the lack of 'key bargaining chips' in the hands of the Alliance to get the Cavalry into the war, will things turn around this time? We will continue to monitor ......"

The port of Istanbul has been bombed into flames, but the alliance has expanded the scope of attack to a vast area on both sides of the entire Turkish strait, and all factories, bases, transportation hubs and even infrastructure have been saturated by the alliance.

Even if these areas have near-perfect interception systems, attacks at any cost directly exceed the capabilities of these interception systems.

At first, it was from Odessa, Ukraine, and then from Nikolaev, if these two two waves of short-range surface-to-surface missile attacks still belong to Ling Yu's mastery, then the next attack from Russia is completely unexpected, and several mobile or semi-stationary (conditionally maneuverable orbital-mounted) launch platforms in Volgograd, which temporarily received the attack order, did not hesitate to dump their missiles into the Turkish Strait area.

Then medium-range ballistic missiles joined the attack, from Moscow and Gorky. Missiles from the farthest and even from the permanent military base in the Ural Mountains were smashed into the Black Sea, or rather, the Balkan theater of operations.

The Allies' beleaguered Black Sea Fleet, harassed by ACA submarines, sailed out of the Odessa military port and, under the cover of shore-based anti-submarine platforms, first took care of several ACA surface ships in the Black Sea, and then joined the attack with cruise missiles.

The climax of the entire missile attack was the attack of several strategic bombers from the Gorky base, the largest aviation base in the Allied Near East (Balkan Front) region, and under the cover of a large number of Allied air superiority planes and the Allied Black Sea Fleet that went out, these heavy bombers, who had abandoned their stealth performance and were full of air-to-surface missiles all over their bodies, did not hesitate to shoot their ammunition from the Black Sea to the port of Istanbul and the surrounding area.

And on these ammunition. Many of them didn't even have time to erase the logo of the Kronos company.

As an important strategic waterway. The defense of the Turkish Straits area could not be described as impregnable, but it quickly and completely collapsed under internal sabotage and saturation attacks from the outside.

But the ACA's generals still did not understand the point of the alliance spending so much effort to attack Istanbul - when the two fronts of Georgia and Romania were not breached. The League can only cripple Istanbul – and the kind that the ACA can quickly fix. Turkish straits and those factories that were blown up. Although the infrastructure and transportation hub are troublesome, it can be cleaned up in more than half a month. And in the next half month or so, if the alliance's Black Sea Fleet dares to go forward and try to land near the Turkish Strait, it will definitely be sent to the west by seven or eight ACA submarines active in the Black Sea -- most of these submarines have just completed repairs, are well supplied, and have high morale.

So, the question returns, why did the Allies concentrate their forces on attacking the port of Istanbul? This kind of large-scale ammunition delivery is not necessarily able to withstand the ACA on any land front, and if the ground offensive is sharp enough, it is not difficult to repel the ACA for hundreds of kilometers.

ACA's spies on Icarus quickly sent back information, all of which started with a TF squad attacking the Istanbul military port, originally in the evacuation plan, this squad would receive short-range surface-to-surface missile cover from Ukraine, but it was two or three waves, more than a hundred, if it wasn't for the spies, this attack would not even be able to break through the defense of Istanbul Port.

However, a change occurred after this, an hour after the end of the first three waves of attacks, the president of the alliance suddenly convened an emergency cabinet meeting with the participation of the ambassadors of the Knights, and then, a large number of missile units and air forces on the Balkan front received the order to attack, and a space shuttle flew directly from Iceland to Icarus, this kind of space shuttle native to prehistoric civilization has been used more than ten times in the history of the Knights.

The ACA was still unsure of the cause, and the emergency meeting on "Neptune" did not last long. Pierre persuaded the other cabinet members to use guò quantum communication - this was the best moment to carry out the "candlewax" plan while the League's attention was focused on the Mediterranean!

The whole world was stirred up, and no one thought that a TF infiltration and anti-TF infiltration operation that originated in Istanbul and occurred all over the world every day would affect the entire Balkan theater, the whole Europe, the whole earth, and even Icarus at an altitude of 30,000 kilometers.

And the young man in black and the knightly girl who stirred up this qiē are now in the port of Istanbul, in a sea of fire, in the engine room of a destroyer that has run aground and abandoned the ship, breathing briefly.

"Jess ...... Hold on...... Ten million ......"

Ling Yu put the unconscious Jiesi's body on the cold floor, then took off her black jacket and took out the first aid kit from her waist bag, but she didn't know how to start.

Gritting his teeth, Ling Yu could only take out a shot of all-purpose cardiotonic and prick it on Jiesi's neck first.

"Ahem-poof-"

However, as soon as the needle pierced the girl's skin, Jiesi coughed violently, spraying a mouthful of purple blood diluted by the salty sea water on Ling Yu's body.

"Jeunse!"

But at this moment, Ling Yu didn't care about these things, he shook his hand and pulled out the empty injection in his hand, and hugged Jiesi, who was half lying on the ground.

"Ling Yu ......" Jiesi spoke with some difficulty, as if her artificial lungs could no longer relax normally. However, the first thing the girl did after opening her eyes slightly was to use her own arm to hug the young man in black tightly.

"Jeunse, it's okay, I'm here...... Sue sù what I should do, I can save you. Ling Yu gritted his teeth, struggling to make his voice appear flat and reliable, as he had always been.

"Give me another shot of strength...... "Jessy's voice was very soft, but it still carried that kind of determination that people couldn't refuse." I can't die yet...... I still have something to ...... I want to sue you ......"

"What a stupid thing to say!" Ling Yu gritted his teeth and took out a syringe from his bag. Stabbed into Jess again's neck, he let go of the girl, leaning her against the sloping metal wall of the engine room, and then took off his jacket. Gently cover each other's body. Use all your strength. Squeezed out a smile, "Hold on and wait for the missile attack to end." I'll take you out, and you won't be able to say anything about it when the time comes. ”

"I'm afraid...... It's too late......" Jiesi, who was a little bloody, shook her head gently, didn't speak, just raised the right arm of the machine with difficulty, and projected a body state map, and on the bright red air screen, a red bar chart had been capped, constantly flashing the four letters MORI.

Molly index, the shadow that all mechanical TFs cannot avoid for a lifetime.

MORI-mechanical organ rejectionindex. The so-called rejection reaction refers to the human body's own attack response to external implanted organs, not only for TF, modified people, or even just organ implantation for medical purposes, the body's immune system will think that it is dangerous and fight back, so mechanical TF must take anti-rejection drugs for life. Once the Molly index exceeds a critical point, it will lead to the failure of the entire human organ......

That is...... Jeunse's current condition......

And this kind of problem is also a small first-aid kit that Ling Yu has at hand, which cannot be solved at all.

"I'll go find it! Such a big base! There must be mechanical TFs, there must be—"

Ling Yu stood up almost without any hesitation, although he didn't know where to find this medicine in the midst of the missiles and explosions, but that was not a reason for him to give up like this.

However, before he could stand up, or even finish speaking, Jiesi grabbed Ling Yu's hand and shook her head gently, only to ask something else that had nothing to do with her.

"Outside...... Is it a missile attack...... Is it? ”

"Yes, it's the Alliance's missile attack," Ling Yu knelt down on one knee in front of Jiesi and held her hand tightly, "It's been several hours, it's almost over, and there won't be any more obstacles on our way back." ”

"How many hours? Ha-" Jeunsy smiled reluctantly, exhaled heavily, and suddenly turned her head slowly as if she was relieved, looking into Ling Yu's eyes, "Boss...... I succeeded......"

"What worked...... You already knew your body was not working, didn't you...... On the space station...... On board the plane...... Why do you force yourself so much, why!! ”

Ling Yu stretched out his hand and gently touched Jiesi's face stained with purple blood, wanting to reproach her, but couldn't say anything.

"Because...... I'm going to die......"

There wasn't much silence, Jeunsy even had a shallow smile on her face, gently revealing such a fact that Ling Yu could barely believe, and then took a deep breath, but asked an irrelevant question.

"Boss, do you believe it...... Can a dying man change the world? ”

***

"More than ten years ago, the Knights had just annexed the three Nordic countries, and the Knights at that time had already inflated themselves to the peak, and in the wars of the three Nordic countries, the Knights, who had learned the technology of prehistoric civilization and the power of TF, did not hesitate to become superstitious about this power...... They...... Or that we believe too much in our own power, that we can dominate the legacy of all prehistoric civilizations and become the leaders of humanity......"

"Under the spread of this trend of thought, various outrageous practical yàn based on the scientific system of prehistoric civilization were launched by the knights without hesitation, one of which was the 'Achilles' project...... The initial purpose of this project was to make the most powerful mechanical TF possible, in addition to improving the transplantation degree of the mechanical parts of the real yàn body, it would also assemble a large number of original mechanical parts of prehistoric civilizations to the real yàn body...... Blind self-confidence drove the entire scientific team crazy, and a large number of real ...... Even if there is only 20 or 30 percent fit, it will be forcibly implanted into the original parts of the prehistoric civilization...... 30,000 real yàn bodies...... I'm the only survivor......"

"Yet even so, I only survived, not succeeded...... That is, the rejection reaction was suppressed with a large number of drugs and implants from prehistoric civilizations...... Sooner or later, the Molly index in my body will grow to an uncontrollable tipping point...... At most, at the age of twenty-five......"

"Such a life that was predestined from the beginning...... If I don't do something, if I don't try to see the world, if I don't protect those who have a longer, better, more exciting life than me...... Isn't that a pity? Right? Boss? (To be continued......)
