Chapter 142 Elegy and Triumph

    Huo Xianfeng has had many dreams about falling infinitely in the explosion.He has been pursuing this dream from the moment he woke up on earth.

    Huo Xianfeng rarely slept for a long time because this dream always made him feel sad, sad, confused and painful.Huo Xianfeng always felt that someone, or many, many people, should have reached out to him.

    Now he knows that those are his parents who desperately tried to save him, countless tribesmen who sacrificed for his rebirth, and close friends who died in Changfeng for their dreams and freedom.

    At this moment, the background of the collapse and explosion and the terrifying loud noise seemed to be infinitely far away, and the dream that once trapped him finally cracked and shattered like a mirror.

    When the sky was shattering and the earth was shattering, Huo Xianfeng only saw Jiang Ci who was trying his best to reach out to him in the strong wind.

    At this moment, everyone in the dream turned into bright and gorgeous light and shadow, like the wings behind Jiang Ci, and then disappeared with the wind.Then, Huo Xianfeng was hugged tightly by that person, as if his heart was being rubbed.

    He closed his eyes in the snowy light of the mecha's transformation. The hatred, pain, and confusion he had felt for a long time finally dissipated with the wind at this moment.

    "fine……"

    Huo Xianfeng hugged him back, folded his arms tightly, and sighed softly,

    "Fortunately, you caught me, Ah Ci."

    His voice was very low, and the moment he spoke it was swallowed up by an earth-shattering explosion.

    The Holy White Tower is a technological product belonging to another advanced civilization, and its self-destruction energy is comparable to hundreds of nuclear bombs.So the barrier known as "absolute defense" suddenly turned into a cage for the Illusion God Sect, which tightly locked up such a huge energy.So the moment the self-destruction program started, the entire Holy White Tower became an exploding star.

    Such a dazzling light is enough to make the darkness before dawn seem like day.In the chaotic and bloody battlefield, everyone's movements suddenly stopped, and they all turned around to look at the exploding ball of light.

    Zhou Jiuya's eyes suddenly widened and filled with blood, and his ice-blue pupils were brightly reflected.

    "Ah Ci——!"

    Jiang Ci and Huo Xianfeng are still inside!

    "They're fine...sizz...stop...the explosion..."

    Cheng Yue's news made Zhou Jiuya breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, his years of fighting experience and instinct allowed him to make a quick judgment.

    The barrier of the Holy White Tower can indeed be called "absolute defense", but the internal explosion will definitely destroy the activating device of the barrier, so this defensive barrier will definitely burst from the inside within a few seconds, and then there will be a huge explosion aftermath.It will directly sweep the entire capital.

    The next second, the legion commander made a decisive decision.

    "Chang Meng! Seal the source of the explosion!"

    "Everyone open the energy shield and step back immediately——!"

    All imperial troops immediately obeyed the order and broke away from the battle, centering on the explosion point, and evacuated like exploding fireworks!But at this moment, the legion commander was controlling the generals to rush forward against the countless retreating currents.

    Countless huge metal pillars were launched from the Academy of Sciences, blinking like a swarm of meteors to block the surroundings of the White Tower.

    Boom boom boom!!!

    Nearly a thousand giant defensive pillars, with the exploded Holy White Tower as the center, formed a ring with a diameter of 500 meters.Not just one, but surrounding them, forming three blockades.

    And the moment the defensive pillars were in place, the defensive barrier of the Holy White Tower suddenly exploded like a water balloon.Just like a meteorite falling into the sea, the exploding energy quickly exploded in all directions like a tsunami!

    At this time, not only Cheng Yue's external machine had begun to melt, but even Jin Yuan's was badly damaged.At this moment, in Chengyue's cockpit, Huo Xianfeng suddenly opened his eyes.

    The next second, when the defensive barrier ruptured, countless Zerg rushed in from the sky above the imperial capital and rushed into the center of the explosion without hesitation. However, this time they no longer formed a ball and hid in the ground, but instead wrapped the two mechas inThe center quickly rushed out of the explosion range from the side.

    At the moment when the Zerg and the mecha rushed out of the circle of countless defense pillars, the blue-gold light suddenly burst out from the hundreds of pillars. Just a second before the impact of the explosion energy wave arrived, the condensation coalesced and formed athree huge defensive walls

    This time it is not a hemispherical defensive cover like the previous one at the Shenglu Star Military Base, but a circular defensive wall, which can release energy upwards and reduce the lateral impact on the ground.

    But even so, the first defensive shield only resisted for a short ten seconds.

    Click——!

    The first tiny crack appeared on the defensive pillar, and it instantly shattered into powder before it even had time to spread.The second wall was quickly broken through within a minute. When the third defensive wall was crumbling, Zhou Jiuya controlled Wan Jiang to reach the outer layer.

    When Pei Changyun knew that the palace had become a source of pollution, he immediately evacuated the surrounding people and quarantined them, so there were no people around here.But if the aftermath of the explosion spreads further, it will definitely cause the death of a large number of ordinary people.

    So now Zhou Jiuya, as the highest military leader in the empire, his only mission is to protect the people of the empire behind him.Just like Huo Chao gave him the order to evacuate the survivors.

    [Then complete your mission now, Xiaojiu.]

    Huo Chao's mission is to go to a sacrifice, and Zhou Jiuya's mission is to protect more people.

    At this moment, the legion commander’s roaring orders almost broke his voice.

    "Seal the aftermath of the explosion!!!"

    Behind him was Ye Shu, as well as countless imperial troops who followed, not just the first army, but all the armies affiliated with the empire, arranged in order according to level and defense strength, and then outputting all at the same time.Energy coalesces into a final blockade.

    And behind that, many civilian mechas rushed out spontaneously and continuously.

    boom!

    The third blockade wall finally shattered in the wail.

    The raging energy waves washed away everyone's vision, and all the pictures and sounds were swallowed up. The world seemed to have turned into a silent void, leaving only a bleak blank.

    At this moment, the blood-red warning light inside Wanjiang was flashing crazily.

    Zhou Jiuya clenched his teeth, his eyes were bloodshot, and blood slowly overflowed from the corners of his lips.

    Mechas above level A are no longer manually controlled, but are connected through neural chains. The higher the mental power threshold of the pilot, the higher the degree of empathy with the mecha.

    Therefore, not only Zhou Jiuya, but also the mecha pilot standing at the front was suffering tremendous pain.Their eyes were red and their pupils were frighteningly bright.The ear holes were bleeding from the huge explosion.

    But no one let go, and no one stepped back.

    At this time, the scarred Zerg dispersed, revealing the badly damaged mecha body inside.When it only needs to perform defensive functions, the mecha will not expand into its complete form, but an oval shape similar to a rescue capsule.A few seconds later, the hatch popped open in a burst of black smoke, making a shattering sound.

    Huo Xianfeng, half-body covered in blood, grabbed Jiang Ci's hand and walked out.

    He witnessed this scene with his own eyes.

    Countless people desperately supported the last defensive wall, and behind them there were more compatriots rushing over desperately, like countless streams running towards the sea and never looking back.

    Energy continued to join in, so this last line of defense finally resisted the terrifying energy craze. The surrounding areas were blocked, and the final energy aftermath could only shoot up into the sky, breaking through the deepest and darkest shadow before dawn..

    Just as countless Zerg races risked their lives to run towards their beloved king, at this moment, countless humans are running towards the future and home they protect.This time, humans do not have to abandon their homes and run into exile. Each of them can become a guardian.

    For the first time, Huo Xianfeng developed appreciation and respect for this race that he had always considered weak.

    Each race has rules and methods for self-reproduction, but when faced with a crisis that threatens the survival of the race, most lives will perform the same brave protective behavior.

    In the eyes of the Zerg, the king is the most important, and the king's survival is the best guarantee for the reproduction of the race.In the eyes of humans, their homeland and their countless compatriots are the future of racial reproduction.

    So at this moment, all beings, regardless of race, performed the same protective behavior without fear of life or death.

    Huo Xianfeng watched the similar scene in front of him quietly, and suddenly remembered what Huo Chao had said to him a long, long time ago.

    [Xiao Feng, I admit that humans are no better than Zerg. They are indeed weaker, and there are still many, many bad individuals.But shall we make a bet?]

    That man smiled as warmly as the sun. He did not feel inferior because of the weakness of himself and his race. Instead, he felt calm.

    [But one day, you will have a different view of us, and you will find that even the dimmest stars will shine.]

    This is probably why Huo Chao was the only close friend that Wang recognized.

    He did, as Pei Changyun thought, gather all the good things in human beings.He obviously grew up in the mud of Huan Shen Cult, but he was still able to grow into the cleanest and most brilliant appearance.

    "Huo Xianfeng...?"

    Probably because the look in his eyes was so special, Jiang Ci couldn't help but call him softly.

    "What’s wrong with you?"

    "nothing."

    Huo Xianfeng lowered his eyes and replied,

    "I just found out that I had a bet and I seemed to have lost to some idiot."

    "..."

    Lost the bet?

    Jiang Ci was stunned for a moment.

    Speaking of betting, Jiang Ci has never won a bet with this guy since he met Huo Xianfeng.Later, he learned a lesson and never bet with the other party again.But I didn’t expect that this guy would lose sometimes.

    Generally speaking, the word "lose" does not exist in Wang's dictionary.But at this moment, Huo Xianfeng said it so easily and casually, and there was even a clear smile in his eyes.

    It seems that I am very happy to lose.

    Jiang Ci actually knew who the word "some idiot" was referring to. His eyes were moist, but he just laughed and teased.

    "Oh, how can someone in this world make you lose a bet?"

    Huo Xianfeng chuckled lightly and did not answer the question. He just looked up at the sky.The aftertaste of the horrific explosion finally began to subside and gradually began to dissipate.

    "Ah Ci,"

    "Um."

    "You're so awesome today."

    Jiang Ci was startled. He turned to look at Huo Xianfeng, his face moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something.But before he could say anything, Huo Xianfeng covered the side of his face and hissed twice.

    "It hurts me so much."

    "...Who made you lose your mind?"

    Although Jiang Ci said this, he still moved closer to take a look, but at this moment, the tail wrapped around his waist again.Huo Xianfeng grabbed his wife's chin with one hand, imitated her previous "powerful boss" posture, lowered her head and kissed her.

    "But marrying someone else with my insect eggs...that's not okay."

    "……Well."

    On the other side, He Zhun also came out of the cockpit of Forbidden Abyss. Compared to Huo Xianfeng and Jiang Ci, who were able to move freely, he was so exhausted that he could only crawl out.

    Forbidden Abyss did not unfold its full form, but the same defensive form. However, when He Zhun came out of the cockpit of Forbidden Abyss, he found that the outside was not the ground, and he did not see the Zerg.

    What He Zhun saw when he opened his eyes was the remains of the prisoner's outer aircraft.

    The Prisoner Eagle is Leinster's mecha.

    "Doctor Xiaohe, the Prison Eagle has been completely destroyed."

    ——This is the voice of Forbidden Abyss.

    Because the prisoner eagle is in full form, rather than in a defensive state like Chengyue and Jinyuan.At the moment of the explosion, He Zhun was loaded into the cockpit by Jin Yuan, and the prisoner eagle behind him also automatically deformed and enveloped the outermost layer.

    Forbidden Yuan cannot understand.

    "Strange, logically speaking, the program of the mecha in an explosion of this magnitude should automatically transform into a defensive state."

    "..."

    He Zhun opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.Because he figured out why.

    This was indeed Leinster's protection, but that person knew that He Zhun would not accept his Mecha Prisoner Eagle the same way Jiang Ci accepted Cheng Yue.Therefore, the Prisoner Eagle did not deploy its defensive form, but was destroyed in the explosion after performing its final protection mission.

    He Zhun was covered in blood. He knelt on the ground, surrounded by the towering remains of the Prison Eagle. Only the light fell from a broken hole above.He stared blankly at the sky.As far as the eye could see, there was a sliver of red, which was the glimmer of light after the aftermath of the explosion dissipated.

    He Zhun heard cheers, screams, and painful cries outside like a roaring tsunami.

    ——This means they won.

    That hellish white cage finally collapsed and shattered into ashes.

    He Zhun stared blankly, never blinking, not even knowing when tears flowed down his face.His brows trembled slightly, and his blank face gradually gained expression.

    As if he finally felt the pain, he suddenly covered his chest and bent his body deeply.

    "Ha ha ha ha……"

    Jin Yuan heard the young man's hoarse and difficult laughter.Then it saw the man's shoulders begin to shake violently.Jin Yuan actually didn't know whether it was crying or laughing, sad or happy.

    Then, it no longer needed to use the program to judge, because the next second, He Zhun, who had always been calm and self-possessed, finally broke down and cried like a child.

    He didn't have to repress it anymore.He doesn't have to worry about anything anymore.

    He finally... could cry.

    At the same time, a burst of tears of joy erupted from the secret medical room inside the Academy of Sciences.

    "It works! It works!"

    “The extracted antibodies worked!!!”

    Pei Changyun was lying on the snow-white hospital bed, his brows furrowed in pain finally relaxed, his weak breathing gradually began to recover, and the various data marked in red next to him began to gradually tend to a safe value.

    Countless doctors were so excited that they could hardly contain themselves. When Secretary-General Zhao He, who was waiting outside the medical room, heard the cheers inside, he finally couldn't help but his feet softened and he knelt on the ground.

    "His Majesty……"

    "His Majesty……"

    The resolute and strong alpha secretary-general covered his eyes. He gritted his teeth, but still couldn't stop the tears of joy from overflowing from his fingers, and then dropped a few water stains on the smooth ground.

    At this moment, some people were cheering, some were crying, and some were hugging.

    In the distance, countless Zerg also raised their huge bodies. They vibrated the peritoneum, responded with high pitch and joy, and various sounds blended together.Like a desolate elegy, but also like a triumphant song praising victory, it reaches the sky with the howling wind on the battlefield——

    At this time, the night ends and the morning comes.

    A blazing cloud rose up from the end of the sky.

    ——The dawn finally broke at this moment.
