Earth Era

There is no doubt that there is division of labor and cooperation within the robot army. This means that no matter how high the technological value of the Victory spacecraft is, it cannot lure all the robots away. There will always be some robots that continue to take on the task of reproducing themselves. They will continue to stay on the earth and at the same time launch siege on human bases.

The battle outside the base is still fierce, but no matter how fierce the battle is, it will not affect the work of Xiao Yun, the core of the base.

Xiao Yun's new office is decorated in a warm and homely style. Everything is decorated in warm colors and there is even a plant wall for decoration. It's spacious and bright, clean and quiet.

Outside the window is a vast grassland, with blue sky and green grass contrasting with each other, occasionally mixed with some clear and shallow streams, and occasionally groups of cattle and sheep pass by. The breeze blew across the world, causing the grass to undulate like a wave. No matter who it is, they will feel a sense of comfort and relaxation from the bottom of their hearts when they see this beautiful scenery.

All of this is of course fake, they are actually virtual images projected on the window glass. This system is expensive and troublesome. Usually they are only installed on large spacecraft that require long-term navigation. However, in order to create a good working environment for Xiao Yun, the autonomous government installed it on Xiao Yun’s office. This system.

In addition, there is the strictest security here, as well as complete sound insulation, shock absorption, air filtration and other systems. Under the collaborative work of these many systems, all sounds, vibrations, odors, etc. from the outside world will not be transmitted here.

At this moment, Xiao Yun was in such an environment, frowning and thinking deeply in front of a personal computer terminal. Although this is the final finishing work, it is still more cumbersome and difficult than many people imagine. Even with Xiao Yun's ability and the improvement in Xiao Yun's mental and physical strength caused by the stimulant program, Xiao Yun still felt inadequate.

But fortunately, most of the problems Xiao Yun encountered have been solved by Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun's progress may have been slower, but it has never stopped.

Now there is a new problem blocking Xiao Yun's progress. Xiao Yun has been thinking about this for two hours and three minutes. This is unusual for Xiao Yun, who is racing against time.

Gradually, another hour passed, and Xiao Yun's frown finally relaxed. A new idea was born in his mind to solve this problem. After verification, all the data were consistent with his own. Exactly as expected. Then Xiao Yun knew that he had overcome another difficulty.

One step closer to the final finish. But it is impossible to predict how long it will take to complete the rest of the journey.

In sharp contrast to the quiet and comfortable office environment is the roaring artillery fire outside. General Emerk left in the Victory spaceship, and before leaving, he handed over command to General Chelf. At this moment, General Chelf is in the command room paying close attention to the real-time battle situation in all directions of the base.

The number of robots is slowly increasing - this is a very ironic situation. Although humans are destroying a large number of robots every moment, the total number of robots has been increasing. Because new robots are constantly being added from other directions on the earth and from the sky. All humans can do is delay time.

"General, Firepower Point No. 9 was captured by robots. The personnel stationed there activated the self-destruction program at the last moment, and all personnel died in the battle."

"General, the "Huanglong" battleship has lost power, been severely damaged, and its energy and ammunition reserves have been exhausted. The captain has initiated the self-destruction program and will self-destruct in thirty seconds..."

"General, the combat staff has made the latest battle situation forecast. They said that if the current situation continues to develop, the first line of defense can hold on for up to seven hours."

"General..."

One battle report after another came to General Chelf. The atmosphere in the command room became more and more solemn, and General Chelf's brows became more and more frowned. After thinking for a moment, General Chelf decisively issued an order: "All non-combatants between the first and second lines of defense must retreat behind the second line of defense and be prepared to abandon the first line of defense."

"The laying and deployment of tactical mines and automatic defense systems are now beginning between the two lines of defense. At the same time, combatants on the first line of defense are ordered to... fight until they die if they do not receive an order to retreat."

"Order all reserve combatants to assemble to the second line of defense. The safety of the second line of defense must be ensured. Order all members of the special operations team to enter the core of the base. At the same time, order the core of the base to initiate a sealing procedure. If the second line of defense falls, then Immediately seal off the core of the base and do our best to ensure that Xiao Yun’s work is not affected.”

After issuing these three orders in one breath, General Chelf's anxious mood calmed down a little. General Chelf's eyes once again looked at one of the dozens of surveillance images - that was the surveillance image of Xiao Yun. In the picture, Xiao Yun is still working nervously in front of the personal computer terminal without stopping for a moment.

"Faster, faster..." General Chelf muttered.

In the Victory spacecraft, General Emerk stood in front of the porthole and looked behind him, and found that the planet he was familiar with had turned into a light spot in the dark space, and no details could be seen. This made General Emerk feel a little sad. Because he knew that he could never go back and never see any details of the earth.

Putting aside these disappointments, General Emerk once again focused his attention on the battle. During this period of time, General Emerk performed an outstanding combat mission of drawing away the robots. At this moment, more than 30 million robots had gathered behind the Victory spacecraft. There are more than 100 million robots rushing towards the spacecraft in front, below, above and other directions.

It was obvious that the robot group was carrying out encirclement tactics against the Victory spaceship. They relied on their huge numbers to weave a huge net. This large net was now fully unfolded and was slowly enveloping the Victory spacecraft. General Emerk knew that when this big net was fully encircled, he would fall into the sea of ​​robots and be finally destroyed.

Moreover, this big net has no dead ends. Of course...this is only for the current speed. As long as the Victory spacecraft maintains its current speed, no matter which direction it escapes, it will not be able to escape the encirclement of the robot army.

The energy reserve of the Victory spacecraft is still sufficient, and the current speed of the Victory spacecraft is only 60% of the standard speed. If General Emerk is determined to escape, then General Emerk only needs to adjust the speed of the Victory spaceship to the highest speed, and the Victory spaceship can escape from the net before it is surrounded. From now on, the sky is high and the sea is vast, and he no longer has to worry about being captured. The robot catches up.

But... General Emerk can't do that. Because General Emerk knew that as long as the speed of the Victory spacecraft increased to the point where the robot army could not catch up, the robot army would give up chasing the Victory spacecraft and return to the earth to continue the siege of the base. This is absolutely unacceptable to General Emerk.

Without increasing the speed, General Emerk could only watch the big net continue to approach him, and eventually tie him tightly.

Is it to walk towards death slowly or to escape from death quickly? It's a dilemma, but not for General Emmerk. Because General Emerk made his decision very early.

Because...if he slowly dies, he can hold off these robots for at least a day. During this period, not only will the robots chasing him not return to the earth, but Mars will also stop supporting the earth from its original plan. A large part of the robot army will be allocated to participate in the pursuit of themselves, and the pressure on the earth base will be much less. And if you escape quickly... the Earth base will immediately face tremendous pressure, and may even eventually fall and fail.

General Emmerk never questioned his decision, never wavered.

The escape journey was still going on, and General Emerk was still tossing and turning at 60% of the speed, trying hard to delay the final encirclement of the big net. But no matter how much it was delayed, the moment finally arrived.

On the display screen of the monitoring network, the six directions of the Victory spacecraft were covered with dense red dots in six directions. The red dots were so dense that they even converged into a patch of red. They occupied all directions around the ship, making it impossible for General Emerk to escape.

General Emerk sighed, stood up and pressed the huge red button on the console. A piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire spacecraft: "The self-destruction device has been activated, countdown, ten, nine, eight..."

A robot hit the Victory spaceship hard. Its impact did not cause any damage to the heavy armor of the Victory spacecraft, but instead caused it to be smashed into pieces. Subsequently, tens of thousands of robots collided with the spacecraft, and their impact even caused the entire spacecraft to tremble slightly.

The huge firepower also started shooting, and countless robots launched an all-round attack on the Victory spacecraft without leaving any blind spots. The energy reserve of the Victory spacecraft's defense system plummeted, but no matter how fast it dropped, it was not as fast as the countdown of the self-destruct device.

"one……"

General Emerk gently closed his eyes, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Soldiers who died in the Lage 728 system...I'm coming to find you..."

"zero."

The Victory spaceship exploded, and hundreds of thousands of robots were blown to pieces with the death of the Victory spacecraft.
