Cyber Heroes
#1204 - Outside the Karman Lines (Part 4)
At the moment of intersection, the outcome was decided.
Falcon dodged the metal pieces that were stabbing at his vital points, and used magnetic fields and armor to resist minor damage. The Speed King's damage control level is the highest among warriors. When cyber martial arts were not as powerful as they are today, Falcon followed Xiangshan and fought against groups of mercenaries and drones in the steel jungle, accurately calculating every bullet and every drop of fuel in his hand, and calculating how much damage he could withstand.
For Falcon, "assessing how much combat power he can retain just before being injured" is a basic skill.
However, he had no way of avoiding those three ceramic blades - blades with extremely high hardness, able to ignore magnetic fields, and covered with an absorption coating.
The Speed King was too fast. By the time he felt the blade, it was already too late to change.
Xiangshan flipped his wrist joint at the fastest speed almost at the same time as the blade hit him. This time, he began to accumulate power half a second before the joint flip.
The surface is covered with diamond plating, and the carbon fiber cable has both hardness and the highest tensile strength - the enemy's weapon that was wrapped around Xiangshan's wrist from the beginning.
The pre-made loop on the rope was hung on the secondary arm of the Speed King plug-in.
Falcon had a premonition of the outcome at that moment. The difference in the two sides' cyborgs determined the final result.
The connecting parts of the Speed King prosthesis are even stronger than the main frame of the War God prosthesis.
Xiangshan's arm was torn off like tofu, and most of the force it received was dissipated as his arm broke.
The Speed King was affected even more.
The Speed King tried his best to adjust his posture and ignited the jets in the same direction.
The side of Falcon that lost its senses brushed against the mothership's outer armor and rushed into the starry sky. Half of his body shattered into bright sparks.
As time stretched on, Falcon realized that he had failed.
The moment this thought flashed through his mind, the impact caused him to temporarily lose consciousness.
Even a brain enhanced by all human technology could not resist such an impact. Falcon used his last bit of mobility to avoid a direct collision - Xiangshan originally planned to bring him directly to the face of the mothership, turning him into a cannonball and piercing the entire battleship. In this way, the Speed King would turn into light along with the main force of the planetary suppression fleet.
When Falcon regained consciousness, he was already five hundred kilometers away.
Half of his prosthetic body was broken, and the remaining half was basically non-functional. Even more serious was the concussion. For several months, he would not be able to display his peak martial arts skills.
——This person… the God of War…
——Why... this feeling...
Falcon's consciousness returned to the moment just now.
"Parry Barrage", this technique was created by the Tenth Martial God to counter the techniques of high-speed warriors. The last three ceramic blades and the positions of the other metal pieces... the strategy group shown may also be the work of others.
And the person who brought it all together... the creativity, the philosophy behind the idea...
……………………………………………………
It was dead silent.
In the dead silence, Tuoba Xuanyuan 14 stabilized his body and tried to raise his gun to snipe. No one could have predicted this result. No one believed that the 12th Martial God could make a strong counterattack against the Speed King, but Tuoba Xuanyuan 14 was not surprised. The 10th Martial God had said long ago that he felt he had a chance to defeat the Speed King. Tuoba Xuanyuan 14 always believed in his master.
"Fuck, this is too fast. It's completely out of range..." The lion-like knight gnashed his teeth, "Even if it slows down and hits..."
——You need to aim with passive observation, and then...
Just then, he heard the broadcast signal.
It's completely on the public frequency, completely in the open, and there's no effort to cover it up.
The voice was so amazed: [Falcon, you just said, "You are still alive"... Do you think he is very close to the original Xiangshan? To this extent? Even you would be confused for a moment? ]
Xiangshan and Niagudi were startled. They looked at each other and quickly exchanged their judgments.
[Yawgmoth, that bastard...]
[That traitor. This guy actually...]
It took less than a second to respond...
Yawgmoth is in the Earth-Moon system right now? Right...right...
Right near the Earth!
[Calm down, Xiangshan!] Nia Guti said, [It may just be a personality mask. The Knights' research in this direction...]
At this time, Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi angrily turned away the high-energy particle cannon in his hand.
In front of the Speed King, a Speed Army sergeant appeared. He arrived earlier than the Speed King and slowed down earlier. Before Tuoba Xuanyuan Fourteen took aim, the Speed Army sergeant arrived in front of the Speed King from outside the battlefield and set up a heavy shield for the Speed King.
The other two royal guards carefully assisted the Speedy King in slowing down.
Speed King Falcon Voigt's eyes were facing the direction of the sun, but his focus was on the starry sky. If a human face were used to depict this scene, his pupils would probably be dilated and his vision would be out of focus.
Countless images flashed in Falcon's mind. His brain was abnormally discharged, forcibly awakening many memories that he didn't want to recall.
Images from the past overlap with reality.
Early 22nd century.
Yawgmoth turned his head and said to him, "Yes, I lied to you, Falcon. You attacked the army that had decided to unconditionally disarm and accept Klein's management. Now, you are regarded as a traitor by your 'friends' like me. Well, you still have the opportunity to correct everything. Just like when you were eighteen years old, I will give you this opportunity."
——Really? At that moment, did you really let down your guard?
With his back to him, Yawgmoth looked at the blue planet outside the porthole and sighed, "This expression... are you crying? It's really inconvenient to have a body without tears - but why. I think you should know very well that we live in hell. You witnessed the evil, terror and cruelty of mankind earlier than I did. I'm sorry, I was so arrogant before, and I even delusionally dreamed of taking you out of hell... I only live in a slightly shallower hell. Where I am is also a hell that may slide into a deeper hell at any time..."
"Xiangshan is right about one thing. As long as you are in that kind of environment, everyone is the same. No matter which country they are born in, as long as they grow up in your hometown during that period, they will grow up to be cruel demons. Humans are like this... Yes, I am the same. There is no doubt about it."
"Xiangshan is an unreasonable fanatic, but because he is an atheist, the object of his faith is not God. The moment I let go of my faith, I realized what I can really do. That hypocritical faith can no longer bind us..."
——Our former beliefs...
"You can't change anything. You should know that Jakub is on my side now. Tonight, they have no chance of winning. Can you gain their trust instantly? Can you make them trust each other? You can't. But on the contrary, if you are willing to stay here, you can do more."
The man who had already considered himself a devil whispered to the warrior who had just lost his faith.
[…Falcon…how are you now…]
Mixed signals.
The royal guards carefully opened the deformed armor on the Speed King's neck, found the medicine compartment, and took out the medicine they carried with them and placed it in it. The parts that were still running smoothly transported the medicine.
The Speed King responded: [I'm fine.]
Public frequency, plain text, a communication method that is exactly the same as Yawgmoth's.
He knew what Yawgmoth was going to do.
[Oh? You mean, the twelfth martial god is really similar to the real Xiangshan to this extent, and even you think they are highly consistent? ]
[That's right.] Falcon sighed, [I failed. I can only give up...]
He looked at the fleet thousands of miles away, and a strong feeling of unwillingness surged in his heart.
If he gave up on capturing the God of War at the beginning, he might have a chance to take the others away. He...
Falcon said the last words to the knight: [If you surrender now and leave with me, you can survive. ]
No response.
In fact, most of the knights are still in a state of blank mind, even the protectors are the same.
The victory of the God of War over the Speed King, the strange but terrifying broadcast signal, and the conversation with the Speed King that contained a lot of information all had the power to temporarily freeze the battlefield. One thing after another, they pressed the pause button on the battlefield.
Of course the knight did not respond.
Instead, Xiangshan approached Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi and said, "I think you have done enough, kid. It's good that you are alive."
"You only advise me and I, which is embarrassing. You are really going backwards as you grow older." Tuoba Xuanyuanshisi sneered, "Why don't you live anymore?"
When it comes to "how much has been done", no one can compare to Xiangshan.
"I am the least qualified person to do this kind of thing. 'Xiangshan' is not just my name. Many great people have used this name. There is no reason for me to get lost in it." Xiangshan said, "Since we have decided to go to hell together, then do me a favor... If there is a chance, just do it while you are at it..."
Falcon clenched his fists. The knights suffered heavy losses and barely retained their full combat power. Tuoba Xuanyuan 14, the 12th Martial God, and Nia Guti all lost nearly half of their strength. Under this posture, Romance King Juan Leibin alone has a 70% chance of winning, not to mention Hartman and the fleet under Hartman's command.
However, Falcon could no longer take anyone away by force.
He gave the order, and three Speedy Army sergeants led the Speedy King to start accelerating.
The broken body of the Speed King could not withstand such a high speed change. In the next period of time, they would slowly accelerate along the Earth's orbit, and meet up with other members of the Speed Army who were slowing down and waiting to get supplies.
Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi withdrew his gaze and re-locked his gaze on the flagship thousands of meters away.
There is still one most difficult task that must be accomplished.
We must find a way to kill the Agni King Jakub Hatman!
In order to defeat the avatar of the 12th War God, the Speed King's war spear brushed past the flagship. The plasma metal and the impact force almost split the battleship in two. Now, the battleship bridge remained operational because it was directly connected to the reactor in Hartman's body, but the entire front of the battleship was paralyzed. All the enemies inside the ship also suffered varying degrees of damage due to the impact.
"Kill that old dog!" Tuoba Xuanyuan Shisi took the lead and turned into a stream of light.
Twelve streams of light and twelve small missiles shot out from the cracks in the warship like extremely agile flying swords. The tight formation forced Tuoba Xuanyuan Fourteen to distance himself.
The Roman King Juan Repin walked out from the crack.
"Your opponent is me, young man!"
Xiangshan was motionless in mid-air. Nia Guti abandoned the damaged part of his prosthesis and wanted to rush over to help Tuoba Xuanyuan Fourteen.
At this time, Yawgmoth's voice appeared again: "Trying to lock my position with inner strength? Here? In front of Hartman? Are you kidding?"
Originally this chapter would have been about 8,000 words, but I was not satisfied with the second half anyway, since this is a key plot point. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Happy holidays everyone.
