I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

"I am Tang Tianxin. From now on, I serve as the supreme commander of this operation."

When Tang Tianxin's voice sounded on the public channel, Zheng Feng, who was undergoing armor transformation, was slightly startled, but he was quickly relieved.

He had been here for so long that he had experienced so many things and was so mentally impacted that he had almost forgotten that the little girl he had grown up with was now a high-profile new general. .

Although she is young, has not actually commanded many battles, and is not rich in experience, no one can deny that her talents have risen as quickly as the rising sun in the morning, and they cannot be ignored.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with leaving this small-scale battle to her.

Tang Tianxin did not communicate with Zheng Feng privately, but asked the auxiliary artificial intelligence to quickly distribute the specific appointment instructions.

The nearly three million people on the Ezoon satellite are divided into a total of six brigades.

Each brigade has different division of labor.

Among them, there are two brigades responsible for the main attack. One is captained by Lin Bu. This is undisputed. In the fully public competition progress ranking list, Lin Bu and his Fengshen Special Attack Team ranked first, with their development and comprehensive strength index several times higher than the second.

But the name of the captain of the other team caused quite a bit of controversy.

The few teams that had received the order and rushed here to support were fine. These people all know that although Zheng Feng is not famous and is near the bottom of the competition rankings, there must be important reasons that small characters like themselves have no right to know.

But most of the people who come here are arrogant and outstanding people, and most of them are not convinced by a captain who is only a beetle now.

Of course, all the contestants have become professional soldiers. Although they are dissatisfied, they only open the team channel in private to complain, and no one publicly protests.

But these people soon received two personal information documents.

One is about Tang Tianxin's promotion experience in just a few years. He is only eleven years old. He has commanded a special battle fleet for several years and participated in hundreds of large, medium and small battles. Not once did the battle damage exceed the standard, and not once did the mission completion rate fall short.

Not long ago, she even performed an admiral-level campaign mission with the rank of lieutenant general, and completed it perfectly. In another highly confidential battle mission, she also received a very high rating. The army under her control suffered very little damage in an extremely unfavorable overall situation.

This is another stamped approval of Tang Tianxing's appointment. The general meaning is, "You may not understand the commander's decision, but it doesn't matter whether you understand it or not. What matters is obedience and execution."

The other piece of information was from Zheng Feng.

Only two things were mentioned. First, Zheng Feng had already broken away from the mark of the Pact of Destiny by relying on his own will, and in an extremely unfavorable situation, he destroyed an enhanced anti-gravity centipede with only five primary beetles.

After reading these two documents, the young people who were previously unconvinced shut their mouths.

This is an army, where strength is respected.

Perhaps Zheng Feng was mediocre when he first entered the game, but there is no doubt that he underwent an enviable transformation during the battle against the anti-gravity centipede, and now he is barely worthy of the position of captain.

Imprint has become an anchor in almost everyone's heart. Imprints can be helpful in one way or another at almost any time. Everyone knows they have a mark and develops an inevitable dependence on it.

When faced with a desperate situation that cannot be dealt with by human power alone, the imprint can keep people as calm as possible to prevent collapse.

When one's own side has a complete advantage, the mark can in turn keep people alert and prevent them from underestimating the enemy.

When irreconcilable differences and disputes arise between each other, imprints can make people involuntarily put aside disputes and seek common ground while reserving differences.

When an individual needs to choose self-sacrifice for the collective, the imprint will also stimulate the individual's group consciousness to the maximum extent, giving birth to a strong state of mind to give up the ego and pursue the greater self.

Proposed by Zhou Donglai and then perfected and promoted by countless scholars, the Imprint of the Pact of Destiny has played an indelible and important role in human civilization for more than a hundred years.

People have completely adapted to it and cannot imagine how people would live without the imprint.

Zheng Feng gave them a brand new answer.

But if they themselves do the same, they don't dare, they can only speculate and imagine in their hearts.

Unconsciously, Zheng Feng became a catfish swimming in the hearts of three million contestants and tens of millions of off-site think tanks. Because of Zheng Feng's small actions, silent ripples are slowly spreading on the lake.

…

In the next ten days or so, the team reorganization work continued. More and more teams arrived near the Flying Tigers base, but they did not get together. They just gathered at a relatively high density in this large valley and hill. middle.

From the perspective of visual perception and intelligence, this area is no different from a normal satellite surface. There are still rows of tower smelters. One chimney after another sprays useless waste particle mist into space. There are a large number of beetles and centipedes. , Heavy Duty Spiders, Dune Bugs, Bucket Trucks and fully functional variable metal complexes running around, busy and in full swing.

In the previous failed sneak attack, the human ships left a lot of wreckage, and most of the usable materials were recovered on the satellite.

According to normal labor rules, it will take approximately two months for the epizoan satellite to completely digest all the materials and allow the giant ship to be launched again to deliver the usable finished products to the star.

Of course, now that the satellite has been infiltrated by humans, its progress will be somewhat different.

If the Flying Tigers' base is compared to a colony, then the Epizoan satellite at this time is a spherical culture medium surface. The colony composed of human soldiers is quietly and gradually expanding, eating away at the Epizoan productivity and resources on the satellite. .

All the technical staff, including Punkt, discovered something fishy.

The operating efficiency of the underlying beetle that has been implanted with a Trojan horse in the core program by humans seems to be a bit too high, several times that of ordinary epiphyseal beetles.

Behind the human base, there is obviously a third-party force that is inaccessible to ordinary people. It is constantly optimizing the computing power of the huge number of human beetles and other production tools to further improve production efficiency.

Ordinary people didn't know it, but the empire's command, including Tang Tianxin, saw it clearly.

According to the information provided by the Supreme Intelligent Brain Service Department, the decentralized master brain quantum computing network composed of hundreds of millions of stars scattered across the empire's star fields is currently undergoing extremely high overload computing.

The service department believes that this is dangerous and may shake the stability of the main brain Fanxing. It has tried to reduce the computing power load, but failed. The instructions sent by the service department were rejected by Fanxing.

One risk index assessment report after another came from the grassroots offices of the Intelligent Brain Service Department and flew to the empire's decision-making level like snowflakes, eventually converging into a huge information flow.

More and more reports clearly indicate that with the official issuance of the decisive battle order, ultra-large-scale overall mobilization is currently underway in various regions of the entire human race.

At every moment, every minute, every second, a population of hundreds of billions, as well as an even larger amount of armaments, scientific research, and production-related materials are flowing like water through the curvature of gravity lines and countless star gate transmission channels at three distances: far, medium, and near. move.

In the hinterland of the empire, the vast fleets, personnel, and warriors are pouring into various ultra-long-distance star gates like all rivers returning to the sea, and they are like magma erupting from the first, second, third... sky deep in the Yunding theater. A burst of water burst out from the cave star gate.

With humanity's current ability to mobilize resources, the Morrowind Empire, which is operating at full capacity, is just to meet transportation needs. On average, it can consume all the energy that a sun can release in its lifetime every thousand seconds.

After conversion, 3154 suns can be consumed in a year.

The entire galaxy is only enough for humans to consume this way for 86,000 years.

Compared with the lifespan of a galaxy, which can easily be billions or tens of billions of years, this consumption rate is extremely terrifying, far exceeding the upper limit of Level 3 civilization by countless times, and even ordinary Level 4 civilization can hardly match it.

It took mankind ten thousand years to go from a level 0.7 civilization to today, where it can mobilize such huge resources in a general mobilization.

Humanity has truly achieved the goal of uniting all civilizations to do one thing with the same goal.

To cope with such intense dispatch, the demand for intelligence computing power in every link has remained at an extremely high level for a long time.

Therefore, Mastermind Fanxing must not make any mistakes, otherwise it will cause huge turbulence and cause astronomical losses.

In order to understand the situation and eliminate risks, the service department spent a lot of energy to find out the reasons. The final conclusion reached was a bit dumbfounding.

The reason why Fanxing’s computing power load exceeds the standard is because she took the initiative to make two major inclines.

First, allocate more computing power to the third front, including the Ezu stars. The mastermind Fanxing is trying to simultaneously improve the strategic capabilities of human special operations personnel in all star bodies in the iron wall chain formation.

Second, the personality of the mastermind Fanxing is performing a high-intensity simulation of human nature, transforming into a perfect girl image, and is doing something as "Xiaowei". Of course, people in the service department cannot see what "Xiaowei" is doing specifically. Fanxing has encrypted this data at the highest level. It is said that only long-dead sages have password decoders.

The human leadership finally decided not to ask questions and chose to believe in the stars' decision.

As long as Fanxing remains loyal to humans, then all her decisions must be more beneficial to humans and consistent with her own logical judgment. Fanxing's logical judgment principles come from the sages' plans back then, so Fanxing will not make mistakes. If she was really wrong, then humanity would have no choice but to admit defeat.

…

However, at the Xizu Satellite Base, although Zheng Feng was promoted to the captain of nearly half a million people, he actually had nothing to ask about for a while.

The team established by Tang Tianxin is very sound, with people available for almost every key position, and each person is assigned additional assistance with brain power.

He didn't have to do anything before the team officially set off for the home planet.

A wonderful change happened. After turning on the absolute link, his life was not only temporarily safe, but his life became much more leisurely and relaxed.

Except for the annoying guy named Bernstad Guy who keeps stalking me, it can be said that the years are quiet and everything goes well.

I don’t know what kind of medicine this man took wrongly. He is obviously one of the top warriors, and his overall strength is not inferior to his father Zheng Yifeng or Spartacus, but he always comes to Zheng for advice. Peak discussions.

Zheng Feng almost agreed, but after watching the demonstration operation completed by Bernstad with the cumbersome Level 4 Dune Worm, Zheng Feng only hummed twice, "Well, it's okay. Practice again later, your The fighting style is more than fierce, but lacks dexterity. He can use a lot of strength at every turn and can kill all enemies when dealing with ordinary opponents. However, if he encounters the perfect combat unit of the Compound Eyes, he will easily suffer. If he encounters an enemy with special abilities, With a square unit, it’s even harder to have room for maneuver, and your life could be in danger if you’re not careful.”

After listening to this, Bernstad fell into deep thought and thought.

On the other side, Zheng Feng was suddenly stunned. He felt something was strange, and immediately turned around and wanted to leave.

Unexpectedly, Bernstad rushed up and said in an excited tone: "Brother Feng, you are right! I almost got killed when I encountered a human-faced monster a few days ago. Please teach me, let's do it Let’s compare notes!”

Obviously, his guidance to Zheng Feng was extremely enlightening.

Zheng Feng: "..."

Can't be taught.

He is very self-aware. With his current ability, if he uses equipment of the same level to face Bernstad, the chance of winning is less than 10%.

In addition to "it is easy to break if it is too strong", there is also an ancient proverb that "one force can defeat ten things".

"Let's forget about the discussion. I'm very busy now. Let's talk about it later."

"Brother Feng, where are you going?"

"Go to training."

"Huh? Can I join too?"

"That's your business. I use the brain link simulation training that everyone has."

"Whoa whoa."

Zheng Feng thought that the simulation training he had accessed through the cramming artifact was really a commodity that everyone could enjoy, but the truth was obviously not the case.

Five minutes later, Zheng Feng entered the virtual space again and met teacher "Xiaowei".

Since participating in the finals, Zheng Feng's hard study in the cramming artifact has been interrupted for a long time due to being too busy and never having time to spare.

He didn't expect that in this environment, he would have the opportunity to calm down and read.

Several days had passed, and although Zheng Feng didn't want to admit it, the fact was that he had completely adapted to his parents leaving.

His emotions told him that he might be a bit too cold-blooded.

But reason has come to a very clear conclusion.

That is, in my subconscious, my understanding of my father Zheng Yifeng and Liang Yun always feels hazy and unreal.

Even from the beginning, I felt that the previous ten years had been a happy dream, but now it was just a dream that was broken and people woke up.

When he loses, the regret is greater than the pain.

The source of anger is gain and loss, but it is not the pure rage of parents' blood feud recorded in history books.

In addition, the shadow of Morrowind Mothership No. 2 has not appeared for a long time, and the buzzing noise in my mind has gradually subsided, leaving only the endless sound that is still emerging every moment, every minute, and every second. Memory screen fragments.

Up to now, more and more of these pictures, ranging from several seconds long to one or two seconds short, have been spliced ​​together in chronological order, almost forming a complete life.

Zheng Feng still can't see the real and specific picture now, it always seems like seeing flowers in the fog, but he is already keenly aware that sooner or later, the pieces of the puzzle will be completed.

At the moment of completion, the thick fog will disappear, and the answers to many mysteries hidden in the heart will emerge.

Zheng Feng can also feel that as the puzzle continues to be improved, his personality is also quietly changing.

For example, when faced with Bernstad's request for discussion just now, with his original personality, he would not clearly understand, but he would inexplicably give pointers.

Because Zheng Feng felt that he was not as strong as Bernstadt, and he was worried that giving random advice would lead people astray.

After finishing those words, Zheng Feng himself felt puzzled for a moment.

This is not the first time that this has happened.

Zheng Feng had noticed it before, but didn't take it seriously.

However, this situation has been happening more and more frequently recently. No matter how slow he is, he should have noticed that something is wrong.

What’s even more strange is that I know something is wrong, but there is always another voice in my heart saying, “This is how it should be.”

Zheng Feng thought again, maybe, when the puzzle is complete, I can get the answer to this question, right?

"Teacher Xiaowei, can we start class?"

Zheng Feng said proactively.

"Xiaowei" looked at Zheng Feng, "What? I see you are worried."

Zheng Feng let out a light sigh.

It's strange, the previous teacher Xiaowei never exchanged greetings. When we met, he was a devil teacher, so severe that it made people feel heart-stopping.

Is the sun coming out in the west today?

How could she ask about her own thoughts?

Zheng Feng nodded, "Yes. I have experienced a lot recently."

"I know, your parents died, right?"

"That's one aspect of it, and there's a deeper reason. I can't quite tell."

Fanxing: "Let me summarize it for you, that is, you think you should be like that, but you are like this. Right?"

"Hey, how do you know?"

Fanxing smiled secretly in his heart, of course I know everything, because you are now an absolute link, and your thinking is already running in the core of the intelligent brain controlled by me. How can I not know?

"I heard a quote from a philosopher before."

"What?"

"Looking at mountains is still mountains, looking at water is still water. Looking at mountains is not mountains, looking at water is not water. Looking at mountains is still mountains, looking at water is still water. Have you heard of it?"

"No."

"What you think now may not be what you thought before. You think you should be like that, but maybe, you are actually meant to be like this. Well, you can think about my words slowly when you look back."

"All right."

"No more nonsense, let's start class. You have missed a lot of classes recently. You should be a little more sensible now, and your concentration and logical thinking skills should have improved again. Therefore, we will use six hours to make up for what you owed before. All courses below.”

Zheng Feng was shocked, "Teacher Xiaowei, you..."

Here comes the familiar electric shock, which hits the soul directly and hurts the heart. It can cleanse the heart and make all emotions and desires disappear in an instant, leaving only emptiness.

Looking at Zheng Feng who was once again concentrating on studying, the corners of Fanxing's mouth curled up silently.

No matter how philosophical she said, she actually had doubts.

This doubt is about the fate of Zheng Mo, Zheng Yifeng, Liang Yun, Tang Yingwu, Tang Xia'ao, Tang Shimin and others. It is also related to the battle of the evolved bodies of the epiphysis tribe and the venue of this competition.

When the competition venue was originally selected, Fanxing personally performed large-chaos quantum operations, using random comparison samples generated by trillions of different people making different choices in the face of different things, achieving truly perfect randomness. , but finally settled on the epizoan star.

At that time, no one knew about the existence of the evolved bodies of the Epizoan, including Fanxing.

When rolling the dice, the weight of the epizoan star among the tens of billions of alternatives in the iron wall chain array is not high. It is just a rather inconspicuous numerator, and the denominator is 10 billion.

But in the end, the epizoan star exceeded the one in 10 billion probability and became the only inevitable outcome.

There are so many incredible coincidences that Fanxing, the super intelligence that controls all the secrets of mankind, also fell into self-doubt when examining it.

Six and a half hours later, Zheng Feng walked out of the underground hidden base.

Something unexpected happened. After completing the study of theoretical knowledge, he planned to join combat training, talk to Instructor T about life, and let himself receive a realistic beating, but Instructor T disappeared. He got no response.

Zheng Feng wasted half an hour and tried for a long time. Finally, he was summoned by an urgent notice from his adjutant, Matta Niklaus.

"Captain, there is a little girl named Zero here looking for you. She broke away from the team and came here alone. She drove the heavy-loaded spider across most of the satellite's surface, and along the way... she eliminated eight level seven units and dozens of six level units. level unit, and there are countless others in the third, fourth and fifth levels. She brought a lot of wreckage supplies. Captain Bernstad said... that she is simply the second Valkyrie. The first is the child instructor."

Zheng Feng: "..."

what happened?

Bernstad couldn't handle it on his own, so what kind of Valkyrie is here who is even more insane?

Who is this? Why haven't you heard of this person before?

Why don't you let me, the captain, do a good job!
