Chapter 3: The Obsidian War

Fu Xiaochan, the name buried deep in my memory!

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, a dazzling lightning bolt crossed the sky, and Zhao Shuo was stunned for a moment. It seems to have returned to the era of passionate and bloody interstellar conquest.

One evening five years ago, 70 light-years from the Middle Empire, Obsidian, the Great Canyon of Vally.

Two bloody men in camouflage uniforms leaned against a large tree, looking desperately at the dark cliff in front of them.

In the hollow behind the trees, Balts and machine monsters were creeping up the black rocks, raining bullets in their lives.

Overhead, black branches and golden leaves were broken by bullets one after another, and they fell to the ground in a swoop, facing the blood-colored remnant sun in the distance, forming a tragic and magnificent sunset spectacle.

"Ahem, ahem, Captain, I'm not going to do it anymore. Run away, one can escape. Remember to avenge the thunder! Fu Lei spat out two mouthfuls of blood and said with difficulty.

"Leizi, don't say it. What do we say when we pray, we don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but we want to die on the same day and month of the same year! Even if you die, I won't leave you! After speaking, Zhao Shuo was greedy for thunder and was about to carry him on his back, but his eyes were black and he almost fell to the ground.

"Hehe, Captain, you did your best. Who doesn't die in life, it's worth killing so many dogs! Cough, cough, cough ......" Reiko grinned, ignoring the blood on his face and the wound on his head.

"Leizi, don't move, fix it well! There is no endless road, and a breakthrough will definitely be found! Zhao Shuo said firmly. Of course, in the face of such a Jedi, he is not completely sure, but as long as there is a slight opportunity, he will not give up.

It's a pity that such a Jedi, even if the gods come, it is impossible to escape! What's more, Fu Lei was seriously injured, not only externally, but more seriously internally. Due to the lack of medicine, the wound has become inflamed and festering, and the sequelae of blood loss and inflammation have occurred together, which is eating away at Leizi's life little by little. He had been with a high fever for two days and two nights in a row, if it weren't for Zhao Shuo's internal strength to continue his life, Fu Lei would have died a long time ago.

No, I can't tolerate my comrades dying on an exotic planet!

Zhao Shuo gritted his teeth, and his mind was spinning rapidly, hoping to find a good way to break through the current desperate situation.

This is a dead place, ten dead and lifeless! With black cliffs on three sides and a slope on one side, there is no other path to break through, what should I do? The cliff is bottomless, and the black mist is filled, like a knife, and there is nowhere to hide.

"Captain, it is the greatest honor of my life to know you, you are the hope of the empire, and also the hope of our group, you must live!" Lei Zi clearly knew that they were cornered and that they had become a burden.

If the captain is alone, he will definitely be able to fight his way out of the encirclement. But dragging himself, a seriously wounded man, could not meet the enemy with all his might.

From the first day he became a Space Marine, he was determined to sacrifice himself at any time. He knew that if he didn't make a decision, he might both die in vain on this desolate planet.

"Captain, remember the day we met? We don't accept you, cough, cough...... You're going head-to-head with us, it's fucking fun, cough, cough...... It made us all have blue noses and swollen faces. I haven't served anyone in my life, so I'll serve you, cough, cough...... It's a pity that there is no more chance, cough, cough ......" Lei Zi said as he coughed up blood.

"Leizi, don't talk about it......" Zhao Shuo choked, the man didn't flick his tears, watching his comrades about to sacrifice in his arms, but he couldn't save them, this kind of pain had already made him feel painful.

"Captain, ahem, ahem...... I'm leaving, there's something please, ahem, ahem...... I have a younger sister named Fu Xiaochan, help me take care of her......" Lei Zi groped in his arms, trembling and took out an old color photo, half of which was congealed with blood, and the outline of an eleven or twelve-year-old girl could be faintly discerned.

"Ahem, ahem...... Captain, could you please pull me a little and look at our empire again? Ahem, ahem, ......" Reiko smiled sincerely as a child.

Zhao Shuo held back his tears, helped Fu Lei up, and raised his right hand in the rain of bullets facing the place where a huge planet had risen.

Perhaps, this is their last salute to the Motherland, a tribute to a strong and unyielding warrior! Majestic, solemn, great, like two statues.

"Lei Zi......" Suddenly, Zhao Shuo felt a lightness in his arm, and hurriedly rushed to the edge of the cliff, shouting eagerly.

"Goodbye, Captain! Goodbye, Star Warriors! Goodbye, my beautiful imperial ......" Reiko jumped off a cliff, leaving only the hollow echo.

Countless times in the middle of the night, he woke up from nightmares and carefully recalled the process of his mission, and it was not only the only mission he had failed. This mission was extraordinary from the moment it was issued. However, obedience was the duty of a soldier, and he never questioned the orders of the Imperial Army.

But when they were surrounded by hundreds of Balts, heavy weapons, drone swarms, alien monsters, and machine monsters, and when his comrades were wounded and fell one by one, he realized that things were not easy.

This is definitely not an intelligence error, but rather a big trap set up for them to take the initiative to get in.

The five-man battle group was caught in a three-dimensional encirclement, and the Balts attacked in waves, fighting and retreating, presetting ambush circles and effectively killing and injuring the enemy.

In five days and five nights, they destroyed more than 50 unmanned aerial vehicles, 13 interstellar locomotives, more than 20 robot monsters, and more than 300 Balts. However, the more the enemy fought, the more they fought, they ran out of ammunition, they were isolated, and the sacrifice was meaningless.

He and Fu Lei fought and retreated, creating an opportunity to cover the successful breakthrough of three seriously injured interstellar comrades, and drove the starship away from the Black Yao Planet, but he fell into a Jedi.

The bullets had long since run out, the food and water had run out, and they had to rely on the terrain to attack at close range. The Balts also knew that there was no advantage in close combat, so they surrounded them in groups and attacked them from a distance with armed locomotives, drones, or thermal weapons such as missiles.

In the dense rain of bullets, Fu Lei was unfortunately shot and seriously injured. Zhao Shuo carried him on his back and fled for another three days and three nights, and the enemy used drones to track them, always pestering them like kraft candy, forcing them to death, and trying to capture them alive.

Perhaps, they overestimated their strength, even if there are drones and machine monsters to cooperate in three-dimensional combat, but in the face of the elusive top soldier king, those seemingly advanced machine monsters are like toy paper.

A day and a night later, Zhao Shuo, the oldest pyramid of Obsidian, fought his way out of the siege, but lost his closest comrade-in-arms and brother-Fu Lei.

After repairing for a long time, he fought back into the encirclement, entered the mysterious Grand Canyon, he searched in the canyon for a week, did not let go of a mountain, a river, a depression, only found Fu Lei's clothes fragments and a pool of bloodstains, he killed all the interstellar creatures around a kilometer like crazy, but found nothing, and finally left disappointed.

Since then, the famous Imperial War Dragon Squad has mysteriously disappeared, and the captain has left without saying goodbye, and the team members have not been heard from at all.

The Imperial Military Department understood the situation and fell silent. In the end, the military bosses unanimously agreed that the War Dragon Squad kept the number and waited for the hero's return.

Without Zhao Shuo, the War Dragon Squad lost its soul and existed in name only, but no one could extinguish the great achievements of the War Dragon Squad. The Battle Dragon Squad is the hero of the empire, and the belief of the Dragon Qi Xingyu people is irreplaceable.

After the failure of this interstellar mission, Zhao Shuo went incognito and wandered in the extraterrestrial world. In just five years, he created the Emperor Palace, which terrified the dark world of Xingyu. He is the only emperor of the War Emperor Palace-the War Emperor.

Maybe it's because I'm tired of fighting, maybe I want to go back to the Middle Empire, maybe I want to make up for my missing life.

He returned to the empire with another purpose, which was to find out the ghosts behind this incident and avenge his comrades. Of course, finding the sister of his comrade-in-arms is also one of his goals.

Unexpectedly, under such a coincidence, knowing the news of his comrade-in-arms' sister, his hands trembled slightly.
