go off fire

The direct light from the searchlight was blocked by the huge mecha, and the human figure hidden in the shadow looked extremely small.

"This is 'Dawn'. Mecha has developed a prototype of the fifth-generation mecha, which is really cheap for you." Luna stood under the mecha with her waist in her arms, and said to Leonard who was about to enter the cockpit.

An hour earlier, Lieutenant Colonel Leonard Summers had returned to Elite, officially as a member of Luna Smith's Seventh Squad.Now, they are rushing to the star field where Prince Levi Lancaster crashed to search and rescue.

Leonard turned and sat in the cockpit, the hatch closed slowly, blocking the blazing light from the outside.

"Hello, Summers." Luna's face appeared on the comms screen.

"Yes, sir," Leonard replied.

"Here, I am the rule."

"Yes, sir."

"I don't care what your relationship is with the Lieutenant General. In Elite, there is no such thing as a relationship. From now on, you must obey my orders."

"Yes, sir." Leonard's expression did not fluctuate at all, and his hands had already begun to control the operating system of the mecha, adjusting various data.

Piloting a new generation prototype is every pilot's dream.Of course, Leonard was no exception. Excitement rose from every part of his body, his blood seemed to start to boil, diluting the pervasive gloom, and he felt his heartbeat again.

"I'm not used to you being 'yes sir' all the time," Luna said.

"Captain, we have reached the target star field, please return to the bridge quickly." Navigator Scott opened the ship-wide announcement in order to find the captain who was running around all over the ship.

"Understood. Go back immediately." Luna secretly rolled her eyes, jumped up, and grabbed the elevator in midair. The microgravity environment made her movements appear very light and graceful.

Everything finally returned to silence.

Leonard clenched the ring on his chest, staring at the dark universe in front of him.

He said that he never regrets everything he has done. I don't know if he has regrets in his life?

"Summers, Dawn, ready for launch."

"Captain." The adjutant cast an accusing look at Major General Luna who hurried in, "Please always remember your accusation."

"Okay, Nicholas." Luna quickly walked over, and patted Nicholas on the shoulder. "Don't put on that face all the time, the wrinkles on your forehead can be used to pinch mosquitoes."

"How is the situation now?" Luna walked to the front of the simulated star map.It has to be said that this is indeed a good place to ambush - it is located on the edge of a huge rocky belt.

Nicholas walked up to Luna, and clicked a few times on the three-dimensional star map.The prince's car, the miniature model of the Samael, appeared in the center of the star map.

"According to the original route of the Samael, the spacecraft will bypass the rocky belt, which is a very safe route." Following Nicholas' finger, the star map simulated the trajectory of Samael by itself.

"However, according to the traces detected by our side, 10 minutes before the explosion, the Samael suddenly rushed into the rocky zone. After that, due to the interference of the rocky zone, we couldn't know what happened after the spacecraft rushed into the rocky zone. What exactly happened. Until..." Nicholas tapped his fingers a few more times.The light curtain began to play the scene when the spacecraft exploded.

In the depths of the rocky belt, a burst of light suddenly flashed. After passing through the dense asteroid belt, the light became very weak, like the light of a match in the dark night.

"The unmanned aerial vehicle that arrived first collected the wreckage of the Samael on the outskirts of the rocky zone. According to the debris, it was speculated that the explosion site was the engine of the Samael, and the time was after the Samael crashed into the rocky zone. 5 minutes."

From out of control to explosion, only 15 minutes, too short.Luna frowned, and glanced at the track of the Samael, "If I remember correctly, the Samael is an antimatter engine?"

"Correct."

The antimatter engine explosion was too powerful.Even if the prince could get on the escape spaceship, he would not be able to get out of the explosion range in such a short period of time.

"Looks like we can't even get the corpse this time," Luna said, biting her lower lip.She always does this uncontrollably when she's feeling down.

"Don't say that, Captain!" Scott poked his head out, "Don't give up hope!"

"You have created a hope for me to see." Luna secretly rolled her eyes.

"It's so handsome, it's a pity to blow up." Scott mumbled and shrank back.

Blue flames spewed out from the back of the mecha, and quickly approached the Chaotic Group.

"Dawn, do you hear that?" Correspondent Scott appeared on the light curtain.

"receive."

"I'll send you the possible trajectories of the Samael." The trajectories were sent quickly, and Leonard looked at the simulated trajectories and quickly calculated the search range in his mind.

"Oh, yes," Scott added, "our first priority is search and rescue. If there is an ambush, I mean, we don't know the cause of the accident, the person who attacked the prince may still be in ambush in the rocks Here, protecting yourself is the most important thing."

Leonard didn't expect Scott to take such care of him, a team member who suddenly joined him. He froze for a moment, and then smiled: "I know, thanks."

Leonard turned his gaze back to the rocky belt.The center of the chaotic belt is a three-star system composed of three stars. Due to the chaotic gravity of the three-star system, the orbits of the asteroids are very chaotic. Perhaps a boulder flying well will suddenly smash towards the mecha.Acting here is an extreme test of the pilot's skills. Elite reactivated him, probably because of related considerations.

Leonard calmly pushed the power control lever and walked deep into the rocky belt.

When he just heard that Levi's spaceship crashed, the sudden burst of heartache almost suffocated him. The body cannot deceive itself, and he realized that he still loves Levi deep in his heart.

But now, it's over.He is calm enough.He is no longer the Leonard who loved Levi with all his heart five years ago, and he is not the young man who will collapse when his lover abandons him.

It's only true to fall back on the lieutenant colonel and the prince until each other is taken to death.It's just that he didn't expect Levi's death to come so quickly.

Two hours later, there was still no sign of an escape pod.Leonard manipulated Dawn to avoid an asteroid that flew over suddenly.

"Dawn. This is the bridge, please go back." Scott sent a message.

"Bridge, I can still continue the mission." Leonard argued.

"What stupid things are you talking about? You can persist, but Suguang can't. Do you want our new generation prototype machine to fall into your hands? Come back to me." Luna cut in from the captain's channel.

Leonard opened his mouth, and there was only one sentence in the end: "Yes, sir." He called up the return command on the operation interface. At this moment, a tiny object with a slight flash appeared on the screen of the monitor.

If it wasn't for Leonard's gaze just passing over the lower right side of the monitor, maybe he would have missed this scene.Whatever it was, he had to find out.

"Captain, I seem to have discovered something. Please allow me to return later." After speaking, Leonard turned off the communication, and manipulated the dawn to fly towards the faintly shining object.

It was a rescue pod.

Carried by a pure black mecha, the rescue capsule is very small, it can only accommodate one person, and it does not have any power system.

"So that's why you disobeyed the order?" Luna stared at the one-person-high escape device in front of her.

Leonard's return journey was not smooth. Shuguang's energy was exhausted during the battle, and the powerless mecha was like a living target in the rocky belt. No one knows if there will be an asteroid in the next second. In the end, the deputy captain Nicholas got on his special plane scarlet (crimson) and used the cannon to clear the way for Leonard and dragged them back.

"Yes."

"It's best to be Prince Levi, or you'll be punished." The major general muttered and nodded to the technicians waiting on the side.

The technicians swarmed up and opened the hatch in two or three strokes—they had to do similar work several times a day, and dozens of pairs of eyes stared at the opened door.

But what crawled out of it was a completely unfamiliar blond youth.
