nebula story

Standing up excitedly, many people in the central meeting room on the empire's central mothership stared intently at the battle situation that had begun to reverse on the screen.

He had no intention of hiding his strength at all. His Royal Highness Fern had dispatched all [-] two-person new combat mechs half an hour ago, and organized them into [-] combat elite teams. The left wing of the impregnable Federation fleet.

Different from ordinary single-player mechas, the large number of new-style warframes of the Imperial Army has a terrifying recovery ability. Under the coexistence mode of exquisite combat and writing machine repair, the combat effectiveness of each mecha has been brought to an almost terrifying level. limit.

Fighting face to face, whether it is long-distance or close-up, the combat effectiveness of the two-person mecha is far better than that of the previous single-person air combat mech. Beams of white-hot light that symbolize death are constantly exploding in space, and the fiery red The ball of light ignited, and soon returned to calm and pitch black.

Under this powerful assault, the side of the federal fleet that was torn apart gradually revealed a more embarrassing defeat.More and more mechs and small battleships turned into clusters of brilliant fireworks, and under the attack of the ghostly new mechs of the imperial army, their souls returned to space.

The Federation Fleet, which has always maintained a spindle shape and never wavered, finally began to show a slight change in formation.Although the defeat was certain, countless elite soldiers forcibly gathered from the scattered battles, forming layers of tight protection towards the front of the spindle, while the mothership in the center began to accelerate rapidly towards the rear!

"Your Highness, they are retreating!"

"I can see it." His Highness Fern said coldly, "All the new mecha brigade pressed forward and continued to force the charge; battleships No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6 abandoned the battle and rushed to the enemy's rear first to find out the details of the enemy's transition point." coordinate!"

"Your Highness, do you want to snipe the enemy near the transition point?" the blond-haired Chief of Staff Erin Foss asked suspiciously.

Frowning, another senior officer was a little hesitant: "When we find out the specific location of the federal army's transition point, and then wait for the main ship to rush over, I'm afraid it will be too late to stop it with the main artillery bombardment?"

His Royal Highness Fern watched the federal fleet retreat in an orderly manner: "Who said we have to use the main ship to drive there?"

"So, what does Your Highness mean?"

"Relying on similar forces to wipe out the enemy, you actually have such an unrealistic dream?" His Highness Fern's eyes were abnormally calm, looking at the vast panorama of space on the light curtain, "The main ship cannot be stopped. It's gone. But in the battle at the jump point, I must achieve one thing: wipe out all their broken troops, not a single battleship will be left, and not a single mecha will survive!"

This categorical sentence made every listener feel awe-inspiring.

His Royal Highness Fern's cold and firm voice was calm, but full of murderous intent: "From this moment on, I will severely hit the morale of the Federation people and plant the seeds of fear in their hearts; Convey this message: Our temporary disadvantage on Gotha will be reversed quickly, and the empire will take back the lost territory step by step!"

……

In the always dark and quiet mecha cabin, the only mecha stands safely, lonely but domineering.After an unknown amount of time, the spotlights in the mecha warehouse suddenly turned on, and all of them were lit up in an instant.

Sitting quietly on the left side of the cabin, Chesu, who had already put on the control suit, looked ahead.His Highness Fern's striding figure zoomed rapidly in his eyes, as if in a blink of an eye, and as if he could see every step very clearly.

Climbing up from the open hatch, His Highness Fern smiled very shallowly.

Reaching out and quickly connecting all the communication equipment and machine control cables, His Royal Highness, the most honored prince in the empire, looked at Chesu who had been waiting quietly for more than five hours in the cabin warehouse with gentle but firm eyes.

"Ready? We're leaving."

Nodding slightly, Chesu's eyes were still astonishingly bright through the transparent mask.

"Your Highness, I have been preparing."

Feeling warm in his heart, His Royal Highness Fern paused for a few seconds before raising his hands, lifting the joystick with his left hand, and quickly pressing a button on the console in front of him with his right hand.

The sound of the turbo boosting at high speed, the metallic click of the joints of the mecha, accompanied by the mech running at high speed, at the last second when the two feet pedaled to leave the taxiway of the mothership, the gliding auxiliary wings suddenly opened, smoothly rushed into the vast space outside the ship!

"Attention, attention! The mech 'Xingyun No. 0' is out of the cabin, and all units are closely covering it. At ten o'clock, all the mechas whose numbers end in [-] are withdrawn and surrounded by Xingyun No. [-]. We will absolutely protect the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince!" Deputy Marshal Kerwin Cannon, who was temporarily in command of the central mothership, gave the order nervously, feeling very apprehensive—it was obviously unnecessary, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still strongly insisted on flying to the battlefield in person!

The fast-flying Xingyun No. [-] showed frightening speed and bravery from the moment it flew towards the enemy mecha group.Even those who are not familiar with the performance parameters of the mecha can find its unparalleled speed surpassing others in its fierce and fierce battles!

"His Royal Highness's mecha... seems to be much more powerful than ordinary mechas?" The crew monitor nervously observed the feedback from Xingyun-[-] and asked.

"It was modified by his mechanic!" Their team leader looked at the light curtain dazzledly, "The gossip from the Mecha Research Institute said that almost every piece of protective armor on this Xingyun No. [-] was made by that pariah." The mechanic has re-integrated it, and it's almost not polished by himself!"

Looking at each other in dismay, several monitors were dumbfounded: "The research and development institute agrees to that little guy's nonsense?"

"Little guy? What nonsense?" Their team leader chuckled, "The mechanic of His Highness the Crown Prince was originally one of the main force in the research and development of mechas. Will his modification be a nonsense?"

"Look quickly, His Royal Highness Fern has shot down five planes, ah - it's six enemy planes!"

In the dark space, relying on infrared and thermal devices to capture each other's figures, the mecha of His Royal Highness Fern is like lightning in the night sky, carrying the momentum of thunder, charging and attacking the federal enemy without any scruples , Every time a single mecha is bitten, it is like a maggot attached to the bone. After repeated precise strikes, it will always blast a cluster of gorgeous blood flowers and harvest the life in a federal mecha!

Even when surrounded by a whole team of combat teams, this Xingyun No. [-], which has the appearance of a king, never showed any signs of turning around and retreating, but performed a fierce and cold-blooded demeanor that would never give in—just like Like the infinite resurrection ability of fear, the occasional severe injuries did not make this Xingyun No. [-] show the slightest decadence.

There is never real damage.Even if there is, it will be repaired in an instant, as if it never happened.

The talented young man who followed His Highness the Crown Prince used his astounding skills to weave a solid and seamless web around the Xingyun No. [-] mecha.

No enemy can tear a single crack in this protective net! ...

This is the first appearance of His Royal Highness Fern and Che Suo in space.The proud and fierce Xingyun No. [-], like a god of war, left a deep impression on the entire Imperial Expeditionary Force, enough to make everyone's mind hard to forget.

In the federation's exclusive jump zone, in the one-way central mothership, the middle-aged general with a solemn and calm face closed his eyes, not paying attention to the actual air battle in front of him at all.All his energy seemed to be concentrated on the secret report in his ear.

"The last medium-sized battleship left behind by our army has just disintegrated..."

"All the fourth mecha team fell, and only two pilots managed to escape."

"The last mecha squad is retreating, and there are still eight mechas surviving."

... Eyes slightly opened, the Federation's most famous General Xie Zhan didn't seem to care about his own defeat.Leaning forward, he reached out and switched the communication line in front of him to a multi-encrypted channel, and asked, "Lieutenant Ricky, how many Imperial mechs are chasing after you?"

A clear voice came from outside the transition zone: "Report General, there should be a whole mecha brigade, about 50, of which 10 are the latest two-person mecha." The lieutenant affirmed, "The target is in it."

"Okay, according to the original plan, we must lure the target into the chaotic rock nebula belt." The famous general of the Federation narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the unclear picture on the light curtain, and ordered lightly, "No casualties, no costs."

"Yes, the task is guaranteed to be completed!"

Nervously holding his breath as he watched the fierce pursuit in the distant starry sky, the senior staff officer behind him couldn't help but ask, "What if the crown prince of the empire finally gives up the chase?"

"This is a gamble." General Xie Zhan said calmly, "We are betting on the temperament of the new commander-in-chief of the empire—the great success will prevail, or will the prudence prevail?"

All the lieutenants and chiefs of staff were silent.The price of this gamble is not insignificant. If Lieutenant Ricky can't lure the target into the ambush circle, then the lives of countless federal soldiers who gave up resistance and pretended to be defeated before will be completely meaningless.

Or, the prince of the empire did not personally fly the plane to participate in the siege with such vigor at all, then this costly feint would become a joke even more.

"General, is it really possible to deal with the Luanshi Nebula belt?" A chief of staff expressed his doubts worriedly, "Looking at the performance of the crown prince's mecha today, I think we have a good understanding of how well this new mecha can play." The maximum power is still underestimated."

General Xie Zhan shook his head slightly: "Don't worry, the super performance of this crown prince's mecha is just an anomaly." Opening a piece of data on the case beside him, he looked confident, "This kind of extremely sturdy combat capability is likely to be obtained Thanks to some of its modifications, and thanks to the mechanic specially assigned by the prince—according to the information we have obtained, the ability of this mechanic is almost genius."

Only then did the chiefs of staff obviously breathe a sigh of relief, and some couldn't help showing a little contempt: "Genius? Our Federation doesn't lack any. ——In the Chaos Stone Nebula Belt, there is someone waiting for them!"

As if to echo his words, a lazy inquiry suddenly came from a communication channel in the conference hall: "My lord, I don't know if I may take the liberty to ask, we still have to travel on this dark asteroid." How long have you been lying in wait?..."

The room suddenly fell silent, only to hear General Xie Zhan's calm and majestic voice: "Colonel Nan Zhuo, please minimize calls, any extra radio waves may be captured by the enemy by chance."

As if he was not intimidated by the stern words of the famous federal general whom everyone feared, the young voice on the communicator actually smiled "poof": "My lord general, if that stupid crown prince is as you expected, how dare you speak directly?" After chasing this strange star field, I assure you that he will not have the chance to flee in a hurry." He seemed to yawn, and the voice seemed a little lonely, "But I think your plan has failed, look, It's been so long...Huh?!"

The urgent call sounded quickly on another line: "Report to the main ship, the target has been introduced into the designated area, and the enemy mecha is rapidly approaching this machine..."

A loud "bang" suddenly came from there, and the ear-piercing "beep" from the communicator rang a few times, and then fell into an ominous complete silence, shaking everyone's eardrums.

There was silence all around.

"General, I have seen the target." The young and clear voice said lightly, the laziness disappeared, and the seriousness rose, "I promise, Lieutenant Ricky and the others will not be sacrificed in vain."

"Wait a minute!" General Xie Zhan's stern voice sounded sharply, "Colonel Nan Zhuo, I warn you—follow the deployment!"

"Understood. Try to capture them alive, and shoot them down as a last resort." The voice on the communicator was a little blunt, "General, don't doubt that I am a qualified soldier."

In the strange star field that is as quiet as a tomb, interstellar meteorites dotted across the sky fly by, and space debris floats silently.In this seemingly peaceful and harmless rocky nebula belt, facing the mecha brigade led by the imperial crown prince himself, behind dozens of dark asteroids, countless federal mechas that had been lying in wait for a long time suddenly appeared like ghosts. Murderous, rising in space!

What appeared in the windows of the fifty imperial expedition mechas was such a dense army of ambush troops, as numerous as locusts.Waiting for work at leisure, put on a special outflank formation that is impenetrable, and stagnated coldly on the opposite side.

Chasing the last few defeated mechs of the Federation, all the way to the hearts of dozens of imperial pilots in this strange star field, they suddenly sank, and the cold feeling soaked everyone's hearts.

Barely giving the enemy any chance to react and retreat, the elite battalion composed of more than 1000 federal mechs suddenly revealed the most advanced long-range attack weapons at the same time, carrying endless anger, raining shells towards the encircled enemies And go!

This is a special formation that the Federation has kept secret and trained for half a year to fight against the Empire's new mechs. It relies not on advanced research and development technology, but on people.

That's right, the best ace pilot of the Federation - Nan Zhuo, the battalion commander of the Elite Flying Battalion, personally leads the team, with a specific formation and tactics that have been practiced for a long time!

Right in front of Xingyun No. 1000, seven or eight guard mechas rushed forward in an instant, protecting the mecha where the crown prince was in the middle.At the moment when they saw these more than [-] enemy mechs, all the imperial soldiers understood an indisputable fact: that is, if there is no miracle, none of them will be able to go back.

However, among them is the best and most honored crown prince in the entire empire, who is the pride of the empire who risked his life to go to the battlefield in person like every ordinary soldier.

Therefore, even if they die, they will die in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, fighting for even a little chance of escape for him!

……

The sky was full of artillery fire, and countless fireworks symbolizing death and fall were in full bloom.

"Sorry, I still brought you into this situation." His Highness Fern said to Chesu beside him.Turning quickly, under the desperate protection of dozens of his own mechas, he calmly aimed at every possible opportunity, and precisely hit the enemy's mechas.

He pursed his lips and did not answer him. The boy beside him had amazingly bright eyes.His hands are like fluttering butterflies, no, flying butterflies can no longer describe his agility, the fingers that flick on the keys are like fanning the wings of birds with phantoms, editing real-time maintenance programs and performing machine checks at all times And repair, without a trace of pause.

It seemed that it took a long time before he found a short gap in the storm, and smiled lightly, before he even had time to turn his head: "Your Highness, please don't say sorry."

Sweat has soaked through his body. Although his hands are still maintaining extreme speed, they have begun to tremble slightly. He has been concentrating on fighting for several hours, and every muscle in his body seems to be faintly sore...

However, the cruel battle did not reveal any vitality at all. What was displayed in front of them were the figures of the empire mechas who were hit in the madness, like gorgeous and short-lived fireworks, and the huge explosions filled the eardrums from time to time. The sound sounded, and the number of imperial mechs around me decreased one by one.

At this moment, a young voice in the federal mecha formation facing them in the battle also coldly ordered: "The latest battle report, enemy support is coming, all pilots pay attention, within half an hour , wipe out the enemy, except for capturing the people in Xingyun No. [-] alive!"

Inside countless federal single-man mechas, there was a loud promise from Qiqi.Facing the red-eyed imperial soldiers, the pilots of these elite mecha battalions were filled with anger!

If it weren't for the desire to capture the imperial prince alive and take Xingyun No. [-] alive, with a total of a thousand mechas, even if they launch a suicide attack in groups of a dozen or so, it would be enough to wipe out the opponent. , And let that arrogant imperial prince drive that Xingyun No. [-], suppressing melee!

This anger was fully vented on the dozens of lonely mechas of the imperial army. The single mechas with weaker combat effectiveness were destroyed to zero within a few minutes!There were only less than six or seven new two-person mechas left.

Five, four...

The mechas around Xingyun No. [-] are decreasing at a crazy speed. Even if they have powerful combat capabilities, they can only fight against hundreds of Federation mechas. But now, what they are facing is, It is a Jingying battalion composed of a thousand ace pilots.

"Retreat all armors, cross and block all enemy planes' retreat!" Colonel Nan Zhuo, the ace pilot of the Federation's mechs, gave the order, with bright eyes full of vigor, "The second and fourth teams surround and wipe out all enemy mechas outside the central target, 3 It will be resolved in minutes; the first team is pressing behind me, outflanking the enemy's head in a fan shape!"

Numerous federal single-man mechas roared and retreated, tightly blocking the possibility of retreating outside the unnamed star field.In the central area, a vast starry sky spread out silently. A dark red federal ace mech, like a bloody Rakshasa, finally appeared proudly in front of Xingyun No. [-], as if it had been waiting for a long time.

Yes, I haven't participated in the battle, and I have been silently observing Xingyun-[-] from the rear for a long time, just waiting for this final blow of honor!

...It is obviously smaller than the size of the two-person imperial mecha, but when the engine of the ace battle armor was fully turned on and rushed towards it, no one thought it would be weaker than anyone else.

The imposing manner that can stand shoulder to shoulder with Xingyun No. [-], and the boldness and self-confidence that look down on everyone, have sent a very strong message to the opponent who has been fighting hard for a long time: the hunting ends here, surrender, whether you are the prince of the empire or the best Genius pilot!

The melee mode of Xingyun No. [-] was suddenly turned on, and the super alloy blades on the left and right arms "clicked" and were adjusted in place in less than half a second, and they were in the final calibration.

However, the speed of the federal ace mecha seems to be faster than their calibration time!

Fern's pupils shrank suddenly, and his intuition told him one thing in a blink of an eye: the opponent's engine has definitely undergone a super-modified, faster and more ruthless than any one they have just fought against!
