I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

The time was so short, and there were still more than thirty intact tardigrades left. It was impossible for Tong Ling to kill all the targets before the estimated time.

Moreover, the tardigrades that had been temporarily incapacitated by her had regenerated.

The form is represented by the fact that after the original energy of colorful rays of light dissipates to a certain extent, it no longer continues to expand and reunites on a small scale, and then disperses in the universe in countless cotton-wool forms.

Viewed from a distance with the naked eye, it looks like goose-feather snow that has been magically slowed down by time.

The heavy snow melted little by little in the "air" and gradually shrank.

The data captured by battlefield monitoring instruments showed that the energy contained in these shrinking snow flakes continued to decrease, but it did not disappear. Instead, it appeared across space directly in the bodies of the chopped tardigrades.

The damaged parts of the tardigrade are healing on their own at an extremely fast rate.

This is the first time that humans have dealt with something that has the characteristics of both matter and energy.

Its self-recovery characteristics are shocking, but it is within the command's expectations.

Fortunately, the fleet shielding layer has been repaired at this time, and the attached induction energy has been successfully removed.

There is only one mission goal left, which is to eliminate the tardigrade troops with the ability to pursue across space.

This was obviously impossible and had to be withdrawn. However, if you evacuate like this, there is definitely the possibility of being chased by tardigrades. But you can't let the opponent break through the shielding field and protective layer and come straight in. Technicians still have not been able to test the upper limit of the tardigrade's energy absorption, and the possibility of the entire fleet being sucked dry cannot be ruled out.

The probability of being chased is over 80%, but there is nothing you can do.

Notification of the fleet's imminent evacuation has been issued to the outgoing soldiers in advance.

Considering that the total annihilation of the tardigrades has been given up, the notice clearly stated that the surviving soldiers can immediately terminate the mission, return to the fleet shielding layer for refuge in advance, and then enter the fleet's composite curvature bubble layer to evacuate with the large force.

However, the operational guidance is not a mandatory instruction, and there is a second option in the notice.

The large-scale fragmentation bomb that is about to be completed has a 5% chance of destroying tardigrades.

However, detonating the fragmentation bomb requires completing the final step of the chain reaction catalytic process, which takes a total of 3.3 seconds, so the soldiers can decide whether to stay in place until the fragmentation bomb is finally successfully detonated.

Qin Guang handed over the decision-making power to the soldiers.

Without any hesitation, the more than thirty surviving soldiers and armored pilots made the decision to stay.

But before that, they had to do one thing.

Tong Ling still flew the T100 up and down, constantly blocking the progress of the tardigrade.

Although she was unable to completely eliminate the opponent, her efforts bought enough time and space for the others to gather fragmentation bombs.

At this time, Tong Ling's armor reserve energy index has dropped to 10%. According to previous practice, the remaining warriors should have begun to remove the energy modules of their own armors one after another, waiting for her to return to collect them.

But this time the soldiers did not do that. Instead, they first separated two people around the fragmentation bomb to complete the chain reaction catalytic process. The other thirty or so people formed a long snake formation and continued to attack Tong Ling and the tardigrade. The direction of the fighting is moving closer.

9%, 8%...3%.

In just one second, Tong Ling's energy index continued to drop to the dangerous range.

However, because the super power supply module provided by the Xinhuo Project was not detected in the battlefield information system, and the projection information was not provided simultaneously during the simulation training, Tong Ling's subconscious would not control her return to recharge, but would continue to attack forward.

In every intensive training in the past, the only sign of her mission failure was always "killed in action."

She had already experienced countless deaths due to exhaustion of armor energy.

This time it's still the same.

The only difference is that in the past it was "fake death", but this time it is real death.

Suddenly, the T100's progress suddenly stopped and it stopped abruptly halfway.

The actual blade held in the armor's extended mechanical arm quickly contracted and went out.

In the blink of an eye, thirty-six engines hummed to a halt.

T100's energy index has dropped to 0.02%.

In the entire armor, only the life support system is still running.

Tong Ling's subconscious, who was in the simulation training, was still futilely controlling the armor, trying to shut down the life support system and transfer all the remaining energy to the weapon system.

But this time the training system gave her new settings so that her operations would not take effect.

Outside, the suppressed tardigrades finally found a chance. The remaining tardigrades formed six groups and began to regroup the beam.

At this moment, an armored warrior who had been waiting for a long time took the risk to complete an ultra-short-range jump and appeared beside T100.

This is a bionic armor that mimics a spider.

The armor originally had eight legs, and each leg was equipped with a powerful multi-function jet, which not only functions as a medium-range cannon, but also provides excess reverse thrust for overload maneuvering.

Unfortunately, at this time, only the top half of the spider bionic armor appeared near T100, with only two long legs.

The bionic armor was broken at chest level, the fracture was neat, and there was no expansion crack at all.

This soldier encountered the most dangerous accident in ultra-short-range jump technology, called the basic interaction fracture zone.

The military nicknamed it the slicing scalpel.

The characteristic of a fault zone is that in an absolute plane, the basic interaction force between matter and energy instantly returns to zero, and the essence of the real energy disappears.

The characteristic phenomenon observed by the human naked eye is that no matter what matter or energy field encounters the fracture zone, it will be easily cut without obstruction, so it is called a slicing scalpel. The cutting ability is even stronger than the Uniform Cutting Knife and the Power Blade.

The basic principle is not complicated, but it is currently not possible for humans to implement.

At the fracture, in addition to the armor structure, there is a white and red elliptical cylinder in the middle, which is the broken abdomen of the warrior who controls the spider bionic armor.

He's so unlucky.

Due to the vacuum pressure difference, blood mist and tissue fluid are spraying out from the fracture.

But he can still be saved. The emergency system in the armor is quickly sealing the fracture. At the same time, countless organic fiber tubes are rapidly extending from the fracture of his combat suit, secreting solid gel to seal the fracture, reduce blood loss, and temporarily replace the lost ones. of organs.

But this soldier ignored his injuries and turned on the jets on the last two legs of the armor with overload power.

"Warning! The buffering curvature bubble layer has not recovered and the acceleration is too fast. Operator, you will be impacted by overload acceleration and the mortality rate is 100%. Do you want to continue the operation?"

A quick warning was sent to him through the thought link.

"yes!"

The next moment, the small half of the spider bionic armor accelerated forward like a missile.

Only 0.2 seconds later, the bionic armor accelerated to a terrifying one-tenth of the speed of light relying solely on reverse thrust.

Without the buffering protection of the curvature bubble layer, the entire armor completely fell apart almost instantly. Under the overload and heavy pressure, the phenomenon of material transformation into energy state even occurred.

The warrior died instantly.

The "beam" formed by the "transformation" of the spider bionic armor hit the T100 hard.

This "beam" is like a torrent, pushing the T100 forward to accelerate.

The main structure of the T100, which had lost most of its energy, also disintegrated quickly, but the curvature bubble layer near the manned cabin opened on its own with the support of emergency energy.

A ball with a diameter of two meters and three meters turned into a stream of light in the universe and crashed straight into the shielding layer outside the unknown fleet.

This sphere is the manned cabin of the T100.

Fifteen of the more than thirty mobile personnel also completed the ultra-short-range jump and blocked the vicinity of the manned cabin.

The entangled waves blasted by the tardigrades arrived across space at the speed of light, but they were all caught by the fifteen people controlling their respective armors.

With 0.5 seconds left before the fleet started its engines, the manned capsule of T100 successfully entered the shielding layer and was wrapped in the curvature bubble layer of the outermost small shuttle ship.

0.5 seconds later.

The huge fleet flashed violently in the space and disappeared without a trace.

1.6 seconds later, there was a huge earthquake in the universe.

A huge lightless and colorless storm suddenly spread out at dozens of times the speed of light, constantly expanding, devouring, and decomposing the universe.

The fragmentation bomb was successfully detonated.

It was seven days after Tong Ling woke up.

The moment she opened her eyes, the Han Galaxy War Report appeared in front of her.

"Number of human deaths: 266, 1 survived.

List of dead: Bai Xiang, Shan Centipede, Huang Guang, Qiu Zhonghua...

Casualties of those with compound eyes: stars in the Han world were destroyed, plant life and crystal tardigrades disappeared. The space within the diameter of 0.89 light-years of the Han boundary galaxy has entered a zero state.

Technical description: A void in the universe briefly appeared and was named the Return to Zero universe. The duration of the return-to-zero universe is 33 hours, 17 minutes and 51 seconds. At present, the zeroing universe has disappeared, and the explosion impact is still spreading slowly, and will eventually cover a range of 7.1 light-years. The human fleet in the Witten galaxy has all evacuated. "

What followed was a section where the command retrieved battle simulation images and analysis data from the database of the T100 manned module.

After reading these things, Tong Ling leaned on the pillow silently.

After a long time, she finally spoke and said to herself: "I'm not good enough. If I could have done it earlier..."

At this moment, Gao Xiaoqi and Op Tangde, who learned that she was awake, quickly walked into the medical room.

These were the last two members of her squad.

"Sister, you are finally awake! Are you okay?"

Gao Xiaoqi looked very excited.

Although Opp was a little more restrained, he looked at Tong Ling with special respect and joy.

Tong Ling glanced at Gao Xiaoqi with cold eyes, "What are you happy about? Why am I the only one who survived! Why! So many people died! How can you still laugh!"

Gao Xiaoqi's expression froze.

Outside the door was holding a lieutenant general's uniform with a smile on his face. Qin Guang, who was about to step inside, was also shocked.

Distant Cetus.

Fanxing: "She really deserves to be your disciple, she is so good at blaming herself."

Chen Feng shook his head, "Like me before, but not like me now."

"But she will eventually become you now, and in human form."

"Yes."

During these seven days, Fanxing quietly completed an in-depth analysis of Tong Ling's thinking and came to a conclusion.

Leave everything to instinct and intuition. In fact, the essence is to use human brain thinking to simulate the quantum brain. The effective mechanism is different from the forced distortion of "Song of the World", and the displayed abilities are also different, but the final direction is very similar. , people will lose their innate real emotions, leaving only pseudo-emotions that rely on digital simulation.

In recent decades, Chen Feng, just like his quantized self in the previous timeline, has become increasingly cold-blooded.

Tong Ling will definitely do the same.

However, Chen Feng and Fanxing are currently unable to determine what changes will occur after the human brain is quantized in this more active way.
