The prince of heaven only wants salted fish

It was a normal day when he received the rescue mission. Ji Cheng had just been dragged to a remote meeting. At the same time, as the strongest individual soldier in the Samuel War Zone (or the entire Roland Empire), he shared his experience with others - to be precise, he told them that he really had not created a new military boxing in these years.

He had just exited the virtual conference room when the military system here reminded him.

Ji Cheng turned on the optical brain to check and found that a new mission was issued by the military system: an exploration team was in distress in an overseas star area. There were many Zergs nearby, and at least one SSS-level senior mecha soldier was needed to go out for rescue.

Checking the mission details, there were some detailed information about the current situation of the team: they were randomly exploring overseas star areas through space jump technology, and there was no fixed destination, but because they explored mostly areas that few teams had passed through before, it was easy to have new results. And space jump technology can be realized as long as the magnetic field is relatively stable. It is not easy to be dangerous during the process. The disadvantage is that there will be some short-term fluctuations before departure and after arrival. If there happen to be Zergs nearby, it is very easy to be discovered.

This team encountered danger when they arrived at a strange star region. According to the mission details, the location they arrived at was suspected to have the remains of human civilization, perhaps in the area where humans lived before the Zerg appeared, but before they had time to conduct detailed exploration, the Zerg's movements were discovered on the radar. Now the whole team temporarily uses the terrain here to avoid the Zerg, but it may not last too long.

Undoubtedly, the six words "human civilization remains" attracted Ji Cheng's attention.

The mission details are accompanied by the approximate coordinates of the team's location. From this, it can be seen that they are not within the five major forces of the predecessor of the Roland Empire. If there are human civilization remains there, or even a lot of Zerg, it is very likely to be within the scope of the ruins of the sixth force mentioned by Alvin.

Therefore, the Zerg nest may also be in that area.

Ten years have passed, and Ji Cheng has also heard about the existence of the "insect nest" from other high-ranking officials of the Roland Empire. Everyone who mentioned it hoped that this thing would be destroyed. Even the Roland Empire has always sent out exploration teams despite the danger of being attacked by the Zerg, and has also thought about finding the star area ruled by the Sixth Force in the past, so as to infer the clues of the location of the insect nest.

So now seeing such a task, Ji Cheng couldn't help but become a little interested.

"This mission requires a mecha soldier with at least SSS-level mental power. Now that other war zones have encountered Zerg attacks, it is not convenient to withdraw manpower. There are 97 SSS-level soldiers registered in the Samuel war zone, and less than half of them meet the requirements in terms of military rank and mission experience. In addition, there was a large-scale mission two hours ago. If you remove the soldiers who must stay in the war zone," the small light ball on Ji Cheng's optical brain paused and said, "Now you are the only one who meets the mission conditions."

Having known "Tower Will" for more than ten years, this guy has gone from occasionally contacting him at the beginning to almost becoming Ji Cheng's optical brain assistant. However, because it can still give a lot of reliable opinions when it comes to serious matters, Ji Cheng acquiesced to this matter.

Ji Cheng hooked the corners of his lips and chose to accept the mission directly.

Soon, more detailed information about the mission was sent over. Ji Cheng took a general look at it, and the applications for various missions were also sent through the military system - for example, he needed to fill up his private spaceship with energy, and various medicines that might be used, etc. Because the military system is also one of the subsystems created by the "Tower Will", the "Tower Will" as the big brother also readily gave Ji Cheng a green light.

Speed ​​is of the essence. Soon, the spaceship, which is as strong as a starship, was filled with energy, and the self-driving robots were in place. Ji Cheng's exclusive mecha also went through basic inspections to determine that there would be no problems. At the same time, Lorenzo also rushed to deliver the required medicines to Ji Cheng.

When Ji Cheng saw Lorenzo coming in person, he was a little surprised: "Why did you come to the war zone?"

After a year of simple training on the front line, Lorenzo returned to the Imperial Military Academy to continue to serve as a researcher, and occasionally gave guest lectures in the Department of Pharmacy. Although he also had the title of consultant of the Samuel War Zone, he usually stayed in the Imperial Capital Administrative District and didn't come here very often.

Ten years have passed, and Lorenzo's long silver-white hair is still smooth, shiny and well-maintained. His eyes are deeper than before. He smiled and said, "Aren't there a group of new pharmacists coming to the Samuel War Zone this year? As a consultant, I should have met them. I didn't expect you to have a mission, so I came to see an old friend."

In addition to being a researcher, visiting professor, and pharmacist consultant, Lorenzo also officially became the patriarch of the Stipe family not long ago. Although the Stipe family did not participate much in politics and military affairs, as the descendants of the wise Albert, they also have a pivotal position in the Roland Empire. There are many things to deal with, so Lorenzo has not been to the Samuel War Zone for a long time due to his busy schedule.

He took out bottles of potions from his storage bracelet and handed them to Ji Cheng, explaining their effects: "This is for treating internal organ injuries, this is for quickly restoring mental power, and this can improve the efficiency of mental power in a short period of time... Of course, it may not be of much use to you. There are also some auxiliary potions..."

"Oh, by the way," he took out one of them and emphasized, "It's been almost half a year since you last used the inhibitor? Although theoretically the effect of that inhibitor can last for half a year, the time is almost up now, and your mecha soldiers are prone to mental violence when fighting alone. In order to prevent accidents, remember to use a supplement before this mission. Do you want me to help you?"

"No," Ji Cheng refused casually, took the inhibitor and stabbed it behind his neck with ease, and then complained, "When will the Roland Empire be able to legally perform gland removal surgery? It's really troublesome to keep using inhibitors. . "

Lorenzo couldn't help laughing: "When you become an admiral, propose it at the Supreme Conference, maybe it will be passed."

"Then I really have to earn military merit quickly," Ji Cheng curled his lips, "Strive for the legal removal of the gland."

He threw away the empty potion and turned to wave at Lorenzo: "I'm going on a mission, see you later."

Lorenzo said: "Have a good trip."

Ji Cheng got on his private spaceship, and after confirming the target coordinates, the automatic driving robot started the operation to jump in space. Because the destination coordinates were far away, several more transfer jumps were required in the middle. However, he was lucky and did not encounter Zerg attacks on the way, so there were fewer twists and turns.

It took a full hour for the spaceship to reach the target coordinates. Ji Cheng came out of the spaceship and put it directly into the super-large storage bracelet, then entered the mecha and carefully began to explore the surrounding situation.

He didn't seem to be on a planet. There were no stars around to serve as light sources, so everything was almost shrouded in darkness. After a while, the detection image of the mecha showed that he should be on a huge piece of planetary debris.

Ji Cheng couldn't tell whether there were any human civilization relics, but it was obvious that there was no other life on this fragment.

Oh, except for the Zerg.

The next second, a scream sounded, and Ji Cheng quickly bent down to avoid the strong wind from behind, and at the same time, he swept his sword behind him with his backhand!

Then the scream turned into a miserable hissing sound. Ji Cheng turned around and saw a huge mantis-like Zerg covering his half-broken blade arm and screaming.

If the strength of this Zerg is estimated by its size, even if it is not at the lord level, it is at least 80% of the lord.

As the scream of this mantis Zerg spread, Ji Cheng could clearly feel that there were many Zergs nearby approaching him rapidly.

Zerg also follow the law of the jungle, and being able to help this mantis Zerg, its strength must not be too different.

There are so many lord-level or near-lord-level Zerg in this place?

Ji Cheng suddenly had a question in his mind, but he didn't have time to think too much, because soon several Zergs of the same size as the mantis Zerg surrounded him. Although Ji Cheng was driving a mecha, compared with their size, he was like a child who strayed into the giant country.

——Obviously, his previous question had an answer.

At this time, these lord-level Zergs surrounded Ji Cheng, opening their sharp mouthparts or fangs. Although he couldn't understand what their screams meant, His Royal Highness was still very keenly aware of a mocking emotion: Just such a kid fighting with us? There is no comparison at all!

Obviously, these Zerg lords have never been to the Samuel War Zone.

Otherwise, they would not have besieged Ji Cheng in such a reckless manner.

Ten minutes later, a sword light pierced through the abdomen of a giant spider lord, and black and purple blood gushed out. Ji Cheng kicked away the messy corpses scattered on the ground with disdain, and by the way, he slightly regretted that the mission was urgent and he could not collect the body materials of these Zerg lords.

He drove the mecha to fly quickly over this huge planet fragment. Obviously, the Zergs nearby had been dealt with in the previous battle, so Ji Cheng did not encounter Zerg attacks along the way.

But it was obvious that the exploration team that issued the rescue information was also not on this fragment.

Ji Cheng frowned-he had been on many missions, and many people were successfully rescued, and some were killed by the Zerg before he arrived, but even if they died, there must be corpses or residues, right? But this time, there was not even a corpse. What happened?

Of course, there is another possibility: the coordinates sent by the exploration team were not very accurate, so Ji Cheng could not find their traces on this fragment.

The "Tower Will" who turned on the military surveillance system and kept an eye on Ji Cheng's situation also reminded on the optical computer: "I just turned on the detection function for you. There seems to be an area with very different terrain ahead. Maybe it is the remains of human civilization that the detection team mentioned. Should we go and have a look?"

There seems to be no other way except this. After all, Ji Cheng can't just go back empty-handed, right?

So Ji Cheng could only continue to fly forward, but because the coordinates were offset by hundreds of kilometers at the nearest and two or three light years at the farthest, it was obviously not a wise choice to drive a combat mecha to travel, so he took out the spaceship again and commanded the robot to go in the direction mentioned by the "Tower Will".

The spaceship left the planet fragment where Ji Cheng was and moved forward quickly. After advancing hundreds of millions of kilometers, it encountered new land and stopped.

This is a huge black land, which has no end in sight. It is completely different from the planet fragment with a diameter of several hundred kilometers. It doesn't even look like a normal celestial body that can be born in the universe.

The robot was about to give the spacecraft a landing order, but Ji Cheng directly ordered to stop the process.

He looked at this huge land. Although there was no explanation or reference, he realized what appeared in front of him.

At first, Commander Alvin told him, and Ji Cheng had heard about it intermittently in the ten years in the Samuel War Zone-

Insect Nest.
