Future Shennong Space

Chapter 41 Xiao's Crisis

Sterling is a military family of the Federation. The exact time of appearance is unknown, but they have been active in the military history of the Federation for at least 300 years.

This family had produced eleven generals, three of whom were awarded the rank of marshal, and there were countless other members who had served in various ranks of the army.

It's just that the talents of recent generations of members of this military family seem to have transferred to the political arena, and it has been a long time since there have been any outstanding talents in the military.

Just when everyone was lamenting that the glory of this military family was gone, Shaw Sterling suddenly appeared and surprised everyone.

Shaw Sterling was admitted to the Federal Military Academy at the age of 16. Four years later, he graduated with nearly full marks and entered the Federal Army with the rank of Second Lieutenant.

After enlisting in the army, he participated in several important battles of the Lagu Galaxy Empire and the Galactic Federation. His extraordinary military qualities and excellent tactical skills quickly made him stand out, and he was quickly promoted to a major.

When he was 21 and 24 years old, he participated in the three-year Federal Mecha League, won two league championships, and became the idol of many people. In the same year, the recruitment advertisement attracted many young people to sign up for the army with his image.

After winning two league championships, he served as the captain of the cruiser of the Seventh Fleet of the Interstellar Peacekeeping Force. He was responsible for the extermination of interstellar pirates at the border of the Milky Way galaxy. Due to his outstanding performance, he was quickly promoted to the rank of colonel and served as the commander of the fleet.

A new Federation star is rising.Many people are convinced that he will become another three-time Mecha League champion after Tolan Gerrard, and even surpass his record, and also believe that he will become the youngest brigadier general in history.

Just when everyone was expecting him, he disappeared from everyone's sight in a very shocking way.

"You must have seen a Star Wars movie called "Edge of Crisis." Amy said to Ji Mingxiao, "That story is based on Shaw Sterling's experience. It is true that the Zerg devoured the energy star, and It is also true that the pirates teamed up. In the movie, the commander finally rushed the battleship directly into the belly of the female worm and died with it, but in reality, there is no obituary about Colonel Sterling, so many people believe that he is actually still alive, although he has always been There is no news of him."

Of course Ji Mingxiao remembered this movie.When he first came to this world and was still in the hospital, he watched

This was the first holographic movie, and the tragic ending at the end still haunts him.

He also remembered that Percy once told him that Xiao was seriously injured and stayed in the rescue capsule for fifteen days before being searched and rescued from space, and almost disappeared into the vast universe.

So, is this Shaw Sterling the same as the Shaw Holmes he knew?After all, Xiao is a very common name, and it's normal to have the same name as someone else.

In fact, he already had some kind of premonition in his heart, but he still didn't dare and didn't want to draw conclusions without Xiao's personal confirmation.

Ji Mingxiao suffered from insomnia that night.After returning to school, I also couldn't sleep well for several nights.

He once again dreamed of the scene in the movie where the commander of the peacekeeping force commanded the battleship and the mother worm to die together, but this time the commander's face was replaced by Xiao's.At this time, he would be awakened with a start, and then stay awake until it was time to wake up.

He tried to contact Xiao on the interstellar network, but Xiao didn't know where in the universe right now, and there was no news at all.

It was also at this time that he realized that he actually didn't know as much about Xiao as he had imagined.Apart from knowing that he had been a soldier, retired due to injury, and is currently working as a mercenary, he only knew his two companions, Percy and Martin.He doesn't even know how to contact him now other than Starnet.

After going on like this for a while, he simply relaxed his mind.Because no matter who Xiao is, he has never done anything unfavorable to him, and he is even more like a family member than his original blood relatives.

Let's wait for Xiao to come back and tell him those things himself.He comforted himself in this way, and then tried his best to control himself from thinking about it, and started to live and study normally.

While Ji Mingxiao was waiting for Xiao to come back, Xiao was caught in a crisis.

They are now on a primitive planet at the edge of the Ragu galaxy.This mission is a continuation of the previous mission. They were commissioned to investigate a news about a certain kind of Zerg in the Lagu galaxy, and finally all the information pointed to this primitive planet.

This planet has a huge and complex ecosystem, and the composition of the atmosphere is also very complex, which is not suitable for human habitation.But there are some resources on this planet that both the Federation and the Ragu Star Empire need very much, so people from both sides are stationed here.

There are no indigenous inhabitants on this planet, but all kinds of primitive plants and strange beasts will pose a deadly threat to the humans stationed here.

Recently, a large group of more than 30 mineral exploration teams was almost wiped out here, and only two people escaped in a lifeboat.One of them died after being searched and rescued, and the other only lasted a few minutes longer than him, and stopped breathing after saying some information.

When conducting an autopsy, they found that one of them was infested with a never-before-seen Zerg.

Afterwards, they contacted the personnel stationed on the planet, but did not receive any response. The group's external director issued an investigation mission in the mercenary hall.

This matter happened to be linked to the mission that Xiao investigated years ago. With his experience and intuition, he vaguely sensed that something was going to happen, so he specially used certain privileges to get this mission.

His Archangel transport ship stopped above the primitive planet, and he and a companion, Coton, drove a small spaceship into the planet's atmosphere.

They had already used miniature surveillance planes to investigate beforehand, and there was nothing wrong with the information they returned.However, out of caution, Xiao sent out another miniature detection instrument after entering the atmosphere.

When the spacecraft was about to land, the detection information came back, and when Xiao saw the detection results, his expression suddenly became serious, and he forcibly pulled up the joystick, and the spacecraft was pulled up again at the moment of landing.

Almost at the same time, several continuous firing sounds sounded, and then the hull shook violently, and the stern and one side of the hull were hit and exploded.

The spaceship tilted and crashed to the ground, crushing a large piece of vegetation. Xiao jumped out of the spaceship at the moment of the fall, pressed hard with his hand, and the compressed protective suit immediately activated to cover his whole body.

Because of the sudden incident, his companion had no protection, was directly exposed to the atmosphere of this planet, and had fallen into a coma.

He quickly dragged his companion out from the other side of the spaceship, activated another protective suit to cover his body, then dragged him to the root of a nearby giant tree to hide, and at the same time opened the space button to release himself The mecha quickly entered.

A small artillery shell exploded nearby. The explosion was not obvious, but it produced very strong radiation and shock waves.

Fortunately, as soon as Xiao entered the mecha, he directly opened the protective light escape, but even so, he still felt the familiar impact.

He was furious in his heart, the opponent obviously used some kind of neutron weapon.This kind of weapon is very lethal to living objects, and it is basically forbidden to be used except for war against Zerg.

With a cold face, he manipulated the mech to move instantly from the spot, and rushed towards the opponent.

There was no suspense about the outcome of the battle. Although the mecha levels were similar, the opponent's mecha was like a child's play in front of Xiao. It was destroyed by him almost instantly and lost its ability to move.

It's a pity that one of the three mechas was completely destroyed by him, not even the people inside were spared, while the other two mechas opened the cockpit and only saw two corpses.

This discovery made Xiao's expression serious. He stood in front of the two corpses and thought for a while, then operated the mech to return to the place where the spaceship crashed just now.

The spaceship is completely unusable, because of the electromagnetic pulse caused by the neutron weapon, the only thing that comes out of the communicator is a disordered noise, and he is temporarily unable to contact his companions on the Archangel.

Xiao Di cursed, moved Ke Dun out of the place he had just hidden, and moved him to a safer place, and then came out of the cockpit of the mech to check his situation.

Protective clothing can only play a partial role, and cannot isolate all radiation and shocks. Neutron weapons still have a great impact on Coton.On the battlefield, neutron weapons are one of the weapons that are most likely to cause genetic defects. They were later banned by a treaty signed by the two warring parties, but there are still people who will deliberately use them for sabotage in private.

When he opened the protective suit to check, he found another serious problem: there was a large wet bloodstain on Cotton's abdomen, which was probably the injury he suffered when the spaceship was hit in the first place.

The wound was deep, but fortunately there were no fragments left in the wound.He kept the shield on Coton's head to maintain normal breathing, and then took out the healing device from the mech to heal his wound.

Watching his wounds slowly heal under the light of the healing device, Xiao slightly heaved a sigh of relief.

But before the wound was completely healed, a gust of wind hit him, and he was overturned directly without being able to defend himself.

The moment he fell to the ground, he rolled over to the side. At the same time, he drew the gun from the side of his leg and raised his hand—a strange beast was knocked a few meters away by the huge impact, directly hit a tree and fell to the ground.

Xiao raised his hand expressionlessly and fired two more shots. The ugly and ferocious beast twitched and completely stopped breathing.

At the same time, a voice finally came from the communicator on the ear: "Boss, what happened to you, there are signs of combat detected, and the communication has just been interrupted."

Xiao calmly nodded his ear, and replied: "Quickly locate, and then send rescue. Coton is injured, and the opponent used a neutron weapon."

There was a pause in the communicator, and then the voice of the other party became serious: "Understood, the rescue will arrive within 10 minutes. We were affected by the electromagnetic pulse on the ground just now, and it will take some time for us to locate."

Xiao replied succinctly: "As soon as possible."

After turning off the communicator, Xiao looked at Ke Dun who was still unconscious, and frowned.

The attack by the alien beast just now caused the healing device to fall to the ground and broke in two, making it unusable from the looks of it.The spare healing device was on the spaceship that had just crashed, but judging by the blown up parts of the spaceship, it probably didn't survive.

He returned to Cotton, leaned down to check his pulse, and then paused—the pulse signal was fading, and he couldn't hold out for help.

There was still no expression on Xiao's face, but this time it was not calm, but a kind of blankness.

One of the things he hated the most was losing his companion by his side.

Xiao's fingers still kept pressing on Cotton's carotid artery, and the pulse information became weaker and weaker.

After a stalemate for a while, he moved his fingers slightly, and finally took his hand away.

Kirton's face was in the protective shield, and his breathing could clearly be seen weakening.This young man is still very young, usually with the enthusiasm and heartiness unique to young people, he is very popular in the mercenary group, and his ability is also very good...

Xiao suddenly became irritable, took two steps to the side, and then returned to the original place.

Just imagine, there may be something in the space button that can replace the healing device...

His footsteps stopped suddenly, and a startled expression appeared on his face.

He raised his hand and pulled out the space button on his neck, and a small medical box appeared in his hand.

Opening the box, six small medicine tubes were neatly arranged.He took out one of them, and the light green liquid seemed to have a flash of light.

The fingers holding the reagent tube were slightly stiff, maybe...
