Cyber ​​Heroes

Chapter 1159: Beyond the Karman Line (Part )

The last knight of the Huorong Sword School fell to the ground holding a soldier. He quickly inserted his hand into the soldier's neck. The armor on his arm was further damaged, and the soldier lost his ability to fight.

His target was the remains of the sect leader, Qiao Kela. Qiao Kela had fought with the senior officers for forty minutes before being completely torn apart. It was a pity for this knight, but Qiao Kela had sent him a private message and sent the "backup code" to several knights. He had to rush to the edge of the corpse, he had to...

A bullet ended his thoughts. The knight collapsed to the ground, his finger still pointing at the remains of the master.

——I still have to…I still have to…

——What if the master is not joking... What if there really is a nuclear bomb...

——Forget it, I have already killed three more people with this thought...

"Have they fallen so low as to give special cultural significance to the wreckage?" The officer who put down the electromagnetic gun kicked the remains of the body he had torn apart. He was confused.

There was not even a nuclear battery in this body. During the fight with this guy, the officer felt the mass distribution in the opponent's body through the change of the center of gravity, and there was no abnormal weight distribution caused by heavy elements at all.

He could not understand the knights' final behavior of seemingly wanting to rob the corpse, and could only attribute it to "ignorance and superstition."

Officers used acoustic signals to direct troops to regroup.

But sharp alarms sounded from everywhere.

The doubts that arose in the officer's mind were quickly dispelled.

Just look up and you can see the red disaster star falling from the sky.

The built-in program calculated the result instantly.

Those attacks coming from outside the sky were actually targeting their own army!

——Could it be…

The officer screamed the order to retreat.

The same thing happened more than ten times on the African continent.

Huge kinetic weapons made of hundreds of pieces of space junk and fixed with a small amount of tungsten alloy fell from the sky, occasionally containing high explosives with a countdown timer.

In space, the knights are busy arranging the next batch of "ammunition". They use tungsten steel alloy to gather the space junk together and quickly fix it. Some of the space junk will be given additional fairings to optimize the aerodynamic shape to ensure that it does not deviate too much.

Xiangshan had been out of touch with the knight for too long and did not have sufficient intelligence. It was difficult to define the target based solely on limited instrument observations at high altitudes.

This can only be done when Nia Guti comes.

He handed over the engineering equipment he had seized to Xiangshan. The knights who followed up with Niaguti jumped into space and began to collect the garbage. Then, with the help of propulsion devices and prostheses, they threw hundreds of tons of garbage into the atmosphere.

Fire meteors kept piercing the sky and crashing to the ground.

The first wave of attacks will target troops near the space elevator, followed by fixed bases in various places, including super buildings, military camps, launch bases, and transportation hubs.

In the field of cyber warriors, kinetic weapons are not only "fast" but also "difficult to stop." Weapons that rely on explosive power to cause damage always have shortcuts to cause secondary explosions or destroy the warhead. However, pure kinetic weapons are difficult to deal with in this way and can only be destroyed or deflected.

And kinetic weapons that have completed acceleration can only be destroyed from a distance. If a kinetic bomb is destroyed at close range, the fragments will not have time to react with the atmosphere, and will cause damage on a larger scale.

Although the actual killing power of the attack on the army is not great, the blow to the fighting will is extremely huge.

The sky has changed - that's what these shooting stars announce.

There will be more and more attacks from high altitude. Knights are creatures with very low supply requirements. After a Knight carries enough materials and energy, he can lurk in the synchronous orbit and attack slowly and continuously. If there are enough Knights who rush out of the Karman line, the near-Earth space now full of garbage can be completely opened up into a guerrilla battlefield.

It is also a guerrilla battlefield where metal materials are easily available.

Even if King Romance could quickly recapture or destroy the space elevator, it would take a long time to completely eliminate this wave of knights.

More "meteors" fell from the sky.

Even the Scientific Knights' building was not spared.

The scientific research knight Tang Lubang dragged his half-crippled body in a daze and walked on the edge of the building of the Life Furnace Knights.

He had tried desperately to escape from here hours ago, but now he had to come back.

At the beginning, the single-kill king Jia Deer and another knight decided to take advantage of the chaos at the grassroots level of the army and jointly kill the grassroots officers to destroy the army organization. Originally, Tang Lubang should have gone back with the other knights.

But, but...

He didn't know what he was thinking and actually suggested to come along.

——We... No, even the Six Dragons Cult has produced heroes like Knight Frey!

His dual identities as a "scientific research knight" and a "member of the Six Dragon Cult" made Jadel reconsider, and he finally decided to take him along.

Tang Lubang, along with Jadel and another knight, followed a road often used by members of the Six Dragon Cult and headed towards the building of the Knights of the Life Furnace.

Along the way, there were 26 exchanges of fire, large and small. 25 junior officers and three mid-level officers were killed. The knight died along with a heavy chariot. Jadel also fought with the fourth mid-level officer and both were injured.

Tang Lubang never made a move.

When Jadel was about to die, the Six Dragons warriors lying on the ground fought back in their dying moments. Tang Lubang then found an opportunity and took Jadel away.

After entering the building, Jardel only said "good job, stick" before falling into a coma.

Only Tang Lubang was left standing blankly in the darkness.

——What the hell am I doing? Why did I come back?

——Did I help the knight? Does that count as help? But can that count as help? In a sea of ​​thousands of soldiers, I killed less than thirty people and destroyed four chariots?

——If I hadn’t followed you…I…I should be safe now…

Many thoughts flashed through Tang Lubang's mind, but his hands and feet did not move at all, even less than a programmed machine.

According to Wu Zu's teachings, the greatest role of human existence is to point out goals for machines. But Tang Lubang is obviously not up to this responsibility now.

Footsteps sounded above Tang Lubang's head. After a moment, someone said, "It looks like you need help."

Tang Lubang shuddered, and after a moment he called out, "Gruzi...Deputy Captain?"

Research Knight Gruzzi is a senior research knight with a title. However, he is not affiliated with the Galapagos Temple in the field of biology. He was originally a knight of engineering and was recruited by the leader to deal with some practical problems faced by cross-disciplinary research institutes. Although he has the title of "deputy leader", he is not a member of the Six Dragons Cult, so his actual voice is not as strong as those of the deputy leaders of the Six Dragons Cult.

It's not that Gruci was completely unaware of it, but he thought it was simply because they were in different research fields and couldn't talk to each other.

After hearing Tang Lubang's response, Gruzi was a little disappointed: "Are you an apprentice?"

Tang Lubang wanted to lower his head as a reflex, but he quickly stood up and said, "Am I... a knight now?"

In the Scientific Research Knights, Gruzi had never looked at a young knight of Tang Lubang's level. But Tang Lubang was keenly aware that the situation was different.

"The person you are dragging is a knight, right?"

Gruzzi looked at Jardel and said.

Tang Lubang nodded: "This is a famous knight who fought with the twelfth martial god!"

"Well, no wonder he can paralyze thousands of troops." Gruzi nodded: "He needs some medical resources... Come with me."

After saying that, he turned and walked away.

Tang Lubang hesitated for a moment, then carried Jadel and followed.

He was not afraid that Gruzi would want to hurt him. His fighting ability was very weak, and if the deputy commander really wanted to capture him, there was no need for a trap.

There was actually a room in the building that could supply electricity. This was a temporary transformation of a laboratory. Gruzi arranged for several ordinary knights to treat the Solo Killer King.

A scientific knight was puzzled: "Why? We are now..."

"I know a secret that should not be known." Gruzi's tone was full of anger and sarcasm. He said, "I don't know if I will be executed by the throne if I continue to stay here, but I know that if I flee to the knight now, I will probably not die."

"What?" the scientific research knight asked immediately.

"Do you know the principle of neutrino detection device?"

The knight hesitated for a moment. "Probably... waiting for neutrinos to hit the nucleus, and then detecting the flash of light... like this?"

"I thought so before." Gruzi's tone was full of indignation, "But just now, I received a clear signal. That high-frequency shortwave was conveying a message to me. I followed the signal location, but found that the source of the signal was dropped by the knight. This signal...it lists data, the progress of optical instruments, and the progress of high-transparency materials related to Cherenkov radiation media. It also has..."

The scientific knight took some time to digest this series of information. He was a little anxious: "What else?"

"A theoretically feasible device to restore the trajectory of neutrinos in a transparent medium and infer the location of the neutrino source." Gruzzi sat down dejectedly: "I... I was almost convinced directly. I don't know who listed the data, it's too convincing. At the same time, I thought of more."

"For example, how does it eliminate interference factors? The sun is a natural neutrino source, and so are all stars. Distant supernovas are even more so... When this technology was born, there were many...many artificial neutrino sources on Earth, and a small portion of them were completely beyond our control - not under the control of our lackeys - and were completely unknown."

"This technology is definitely mature when it is applied on Earth. Those guys already have enough data and a perfect model to filter out the background noise..."

"Then I started thinking, based on the history of the development of optical equipment and transparent materials... How long would it take for this plan to be implemented? What exactly could they do to ensure that most people would not have misunderstood the working principles of neutrino detection devices and thought that it was still the same as in the 21st or 22nd century?"

There was even some hatred in Gruzzi's tone: "At least a hundred years ago... A hundred years ago, there was a bastard who wanted to use most of us as consumables to set a trap..."

Inside the bright house, the scientific research knights were silent.

"In the past hundred years... at least in the last few decades, we should have been better protected. However, in order to let certain targets step into this trap unknowingly, we were deceived, we were abandoned... They... were sacrificed..."

Gruzzi became more and more excited, and then fell silent again. Then he said, "Then, I thought of another question - why did everyone misjudge the progress in this field? Why didn't even a single scientific knight in the relevant field reveal a single bit of information in public speeches or even in casual conversations? How many people are going to be killed?"

Gruzi looked around: "We are now even in the Earth-Moon system, in the territory of the God of Fire on the Moon."

King Agni's bloodlust and cruelty are recorded in history.

And this time, King Agni was definitely supported by a higher level of will.

"What if the real target of this trap doesn't step into it?" Gruzi looked around.

"Logically, this shouldn't be a secret anymore... since so many people know about it..." Gruzi stared at the knight who spoke: "Are you going to gamble your life on a madman's way of thinking?"

................................................

Xiangshan sat cross-legged in the air, letting the air currents drive him around. He just hung upside down in front of Nia Guti, seemingly thinking about something.

Nia Guti knew that Xiangshan seemed to be making preparations. Xiangshan had gathered a huge amount of computing power, and most of the computing resources of the space station were forcibly requisitioned by him. Many hosts were operating at high load. Xiangshan was constantly overclocking at the cost of the life of electronic components, as if he was looking for something in the ocean of calculations.

Occasionally, data will flow to the manufacturing floor.

Niaguti was arranging the strikes on the ground.

Since the space-based strike had already taken shape, the entry of Earth's top knights into space had become a foregone conclusion, so the protectors around the space elevator had lost their reason to fight and could only rely on the individual judgment of senior officers. This caused chaos on the battlefield, and several groups of knights arrived with supplies.

These supplies were accumulated by the African region in recent years. They were previously planned to be used to fight against King Romance's suppression fleet, and at the same time to establish a temporary supply base in space to support the knights' long-term operations in near-Earth space.

But now, the plan has changed and we have to bet everything on it.

Nia Guti first shared the list with Xiangshan: "Take a look at what you need first..."

"No need." Xiangshan said, "The amount of resources a single soldier can carry is limited. If you add more, the marginal effect will be too obvious. Give priority to that kid Xuanyuan 14, and then you..." Xiangshan paused, then asked, "If, Nia, let me ask you, if you can only kill one between Hartman and Falcon, which one would you choose to kill first?"

"It's Hartmann without a doubt." Niaguti said without hesitation.

"Is this your judgment based on your status as a modern knight leader?"

Nia Guti was a little surprised: "Do you think I would have a little... not-so-family affection for Falcon?"

"No, after all, I am an old-fashioned person who is out of touch with the times. I have to make different plans for different situations. The best case scenario, of course, is that Hartman and Falcon both die and I survive. But there must be a contingency plan. What if?"

Niagudi sneered: "You are quite confident - Falcon is very strong."

Xiangshan hung upside down in front of Niaguti and nodded his head: "I may understand this better than you."

The Speed ​​King Falcon Voigt is the biggest imaginary enemy of the Tenth War God. The Tenth War God constantly collects data about the Speed ​​King and simulates fighting with the Speed ​​King. Except for those who died at the hands of the Speed ​​King, no one fears the Speed ​​King more than the Tenth War God.

When the Speed ​​King approached, the Tenth Martial God even gave up his plan to attack Paradox City from space.

The Tenth Martial God only had an extraordinary talent for external skills, so he planned to get rid of the Speed ​​King. At the same time, he was also very clear that Falcon also had an extraordinary talent for external skills. That potential fight was a duel of their external skills, and also a competition between the two sides on their own intelligence management.

Originally, the Tenth Martial God had Ingrid's assistance, and he felt that he only needed to focus on the research of external skills.

The only battle in the Jupiter Universe forty years ago made him more determined. He was only one step away from achieving his goal - only one step.

Unfortunately, the Tenth Martial God was defeated by technological advancement. His extraordinary external skills made him fight to the last moment when his resources were cut off.

This is not just a battle between Xiangshan, the twelfth Martial God, but also the long-cherished wish and obsession of Xiangshan, the tenth Martial God.

——Should I keep another backup and pass this obsession to the next Xiangshan? After all, Falcon's killing priority is not the highest, and I am not absolutely sure that I can kill both of them...

——Besides, Falcon will also improve. The timeliness of this strategy...

Such a thought flashed through Xiangshan's mind, so he turned around, slapped the ground, and rushed out like a fish.

Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi was fighting with Matsushima Hiroshi in an open area inside the space station.

During the development of the Mecha Steel Fist, the "zero-gravity environment" was considered. The version that has been handed down to the present is the version after Xiangshan crossed the Karman Line at the end of the 21st century. Matsushima Hiroshi has a certain ability to fight in space. However, he has not tried to control the jet to assist his body movements - in space battles, this is a fatal flaw.

The Tenth Martial God's Thousand Waves and Thousand Layers of strength also relies on this component.

"Alright, brother." Tuoba Xuanyuan Fourteen's overlapping figures stopped at this moment, "I have to save some fuel. I have already shown you the essence of the mecha steel fist in 'Layered Waves' and 'Chaotic Stars'. If you practice well on the ground, you should have a chance to break through the Karman line again within ten years - ha, if we are lucky, we may still be alive and fighting in outer space by then."

Matsushima Hiroshi was in a heavy mood and was about to say something, but he could only hear the sound of wind behind his head. He turned his head and reached out, grabbing a memory stick.

"what is this?"

"Hong Jun, I'm leaving it to you." Xiang Shan said, "Re-distilled data. If you hear that I didn't perform well against the Speed ​​King in this battle, then destroy it. If I performed well, but the Speed ​​King survived, then give it to the next me."

Matsushima Hiro was a little confused: "Didn't you say you don't like the God of War?"

"I may not like it, but if the world doesn't change, there will definitely be a thirteenth or fourteenth me. I have to learn to accept it." Xiang Shan waved his hand, "The hard work of the tenth Martial God cannot and should not be wasted by me."

Xiangshan's words involved the Tenth Martial God, and Matsushima Hiro turned to look at Tuoba Xuanyuan 14. Tuoba spread his hands, indicating that he fully agreed with this approach.

"I understand." Matsushima Hiro nodded without saying anything else.

This was not the first time he had made a promise to a master. Many years ago, he had promised his master that he would protect the martial arts school. This time was no different. Even though the task was a little more important, the task remained the same.

Looking at Matsushima Hiro's back, Tuoba said, "I didn't expect you to make such a decision, Master Twelve... I thought you stubborn old men were obsessed with 'I am the last martial god'."

"As long as I win, I will definitely be the last one. But the problem is that I can't guarantee that I can win." Xiang Shan glanced at Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi, "And I warn you, don't call me an old man. I am very young in mind, maybe even younger than you."

"hehe."

"Are you mocking me?"

"I don't dare. Haha."

Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi felt that Xiangshan was getting angry, so he changed the subject: "I think I should be able to bet ten moves with King Speed. Otherwise, I don't have the confidence that I can kill King Agni alone by killing the fleet. You just focus on killing that old dog..."

"This is a feasible plan. I have considered it." Xiang Shan said, "I am making plans for every situation... To be honest, it may not be up to me to kill anyone if I have the chance."

Raise your head toward the mountain and look toward the moon.

At the edge of the moonlight, the fleet’s tail flames flickered like an evil star.

................................................

Only when King Agni's ship entered King Romans' flagship did the beta waves in his brain calm down a little.

That was his most dangerous moment.

When the Star Fleet passed the moon, Jakub Hartmann used the moon's gravity to detach from the Star Fleet's flagship. At this time, both the Star Fleet and himself were vulnerable.

This is also the most dangerous part of the whole plan.

If Xiangshan really rushed up regardless of the consequences and attacked alone to decapitate, Hartmann would only have a 90% chance of survival.

——No way, the fuel Xiangshan could raise was too pitiful, and the acceleration time of no-propellant propulsion was too outrageous. According to Chongli's speculation, even if Xiangshan carried the maximum amount of fuel, when he broke through to the vicinity of the moon, he would not have much chemical fuel to use for maneuvering.

And it is impossible that Hartmann's shuttle is short of fuel.

But this long plan was indeed going smoothly. Even if Xiangshan kept an eye on Juan Leibin's fleet, he would only have a few hours to react.

What can be done about this?

This time the battle is almost certain to win. The noble people have already used all their strength, and the so-called martial gods and Xiangshan are nothing to be afraid of.

Hartmann even planned to catch up with the Star Fleet immediately after the battle in outer space of the earth ended, without any delay.

Juan Repin had been waiting on the bridge for a long time. Juan Repin and Hartmann didn't have a very good relationship. The two didn't talk to each other, but just looked at each other from a distance. Some authorization processes were all carried out in the background. Juan Repin handed over the command without hesitation.

Juan Repin said: "Master Jakub, I have to remind you that this action was proposed and initiated by His Highness Falcon. According to the preset rules, you will have unlimited rights of action only after he fails..."

"I understand." Hartman said, "Young creatures need their own zoo."

One of the few requests made by the Speed ​​King was that he be allowed to try to "catch" first.

For the Speed ​​King, the thief leader on the other side was a relative from many years ago. Although time has changed many things, it does not prevent this guy with a huge flaw in his heart from catching his "relatives" in a cage.

The Speed ​​King is such a psychopath. He is one of the few freaks who would try to capture the God of War.

The Romance King Juan Repin was too lazy to even discuss this obviously abnormal behavior. Many years ago, he had abandoned his relatives and friends for his own life. But at least he respected their souls. Juan Repin knew that he was a demon now, and he would not expect his old friends to accompany him in hell. He would rather choose to free them.

"I also know that perhaps there is no need for me to appear." Hartman's tone was still mechanical, "Your Majesty's interest is still unknown."

"I think I have completely cured my meaningless feelings towards the God of War." A will with the highest authority and highest priority surged in the minds of the two people, "Falcon can do it. Judging from the data, there is no reason why he can't do it."

Juan Repin bowed slightly as a courtesy.

Hartmann saw sporadic sparks on the edge of the space elevator port from the surveillance footage.

"The enemy is fleeing."

"That shouldn't be running for life." Juan Leibin said: "They are just... um, retreating temporarily?"

"It seems they are not completely ignorant." Yawgmoth sneered.

Hartman felt that the programs around him were deleting themselves. These fragments scattered across different terminals were all parts of a great individual. Chongli was leaving the battlefield.

It would be bad if someone discovered my background.

In the distance, the knights jumped into deep space from the spaceport one after another. The jets behind them ignited briefly, providing a lateral thrust, and then quickly went out.

They will use the Earth's gravity and the surrounding space debris to accelerate, orbit the Earth once or several times, and thus blend into the space debris.

Given the density of space junk today, it would be extremely difficult to find them.

"Should we wait for His Highness Falcon to take his position?"

Hartman inquired.

"unnecessary."

"His stay is limited in length."

"It doesn't matter. Let's suppress it according to the original schedule." Yawgmoth said, "The remaining time... is still too long."

Once again, this is not my intention to end
