Chapter 380 The storm will rise
An unprecedented mobilization began within the "Exile" civilization, not only because of the more frequent interstellar activities of the "Hunter", but also because a brand new civilization came to this "Exile" galaxy.
Although the civilization was well disguised, it was not long before the scientists in the "Exiles" discovered the clues. The quality of those "energy battleships" on the surface was too large, and it was not the same as the characteristics of the "Silencer" warships. totally different.
And the most important point is that these camouflaged warships fired and smashed an asteroid during a certain operation, and the weapon used was a very conventional explosive weapon.
According to the observation of the "Exiles", the "Silencers" have never used other weapons except for their weird weapons that seem to be able to directly decompose matter. Break it down directly.
Obviously those spaceships were deliberately disguised in the form of the "Silencer" battleship, but the "Silencer" did not respond to the other party's camouflage behavior.
This made the "exiles" a little confused whether it was the "silent ones" who acquiesced to the other party's behavior, or the "silent ones" were not interested in this matter at all, because according to their understanding of the "silent ones", later is also possible.
However, the mysterious appearance of the "Fourth Civilization" is enough to ring the alarm bells of the "Exiles". Their high-level civilization sensed the coming storm with unprecedented keenness, so they had to make preparations with full mobilization .
At this time, in a certain space fortress on the "Hell Defense Line", a special mobile fleet took action again, with the purpose of dealing with the possible "stalkers".
"Stalkers" are a special group in the "Hunter" civilization. They specialize in hunting high-value targets. Among them, the "Legendary Stalkers" are the most famous, because many ace pilots of the "Exiles" are Died at his hands.
Last time, the top management of the "Exile" combined the needs of many fighters and planned to use a trap to kill the "Legendary Stalker", and the final executor of this plan would be the most heroic "Exile" at that time. The ace pilot will be in charge.
Everything in this plan was perfectly prepared, and it was also developing in the expected direction, but in the end, the "Legendary Stalker" used the incredible performance of the car to make the whole plan fall short.
In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is futile, and "Legendary Stalker" is a good proof of this.
This is also the direct reason why the "exiles" will go to the "big wound" in order to find a way to "break through the cycle". They must find a way to make up for this gap.
However, the time now seems to be a little too late, and the changes in the "Hunter" civilization are quite obvious. A considerable number of scout spacecraft have already witnessed the actions of the "Stalker" spacecraft.
Not only that, in addition to these "pioneer" "stalker" spaceships, even the real "hunter" fleet that has almost never been seen has also appeared.
The high level of the "Exile" civilization believes that the time for a decisive battle may be approaching, and this mobile fleet temporarily formed in the Space Fortress is to fight the "Stalker" and obtain as much as possible of the opponent's updated "performance" data" to estimate the Hunter's fleet.
It can be said that this mobile fleet is sent to "death", and even in order to prolong the battle time and obtain sufficient data, it must be fought by the most elite fighters in civilization.
It's not that they are unwilling to use artificial intelligence, but that "stalkers" have a unique interest. They have no interest in fighting remotely controlled unmanned spaceships, and sometimes they even leave directly with powerful spaceship performance to give up the battle. happened.
However, there are an unusually large number of "Exile" elite fighters who choose to participate in this special mobile fleet, and even the registration office is already full of people.
The last setback did not defeat these fighters, but aroused their hatred even more. They knew that the "Stalker" could defeat them entirely by relying on the performance of the spaceship, and they couldn't swallow this breath at all, even if they died Humiliate the opponent severely with the operation before death, tell the opponent "You are just a better spaceship, dare to have a real duel!"
Because of this, there are unprecedentedly many applicants this time. Even if they know that this is asking them to commit suicide, they are not afraid.
The "super stem cells" in the body endowed them with a strong ability to survive, but in such a fierce combat environment, it is difficult to say whether they can escape death by a narrow margin.
And when such a "lucky person" came to the registration office, all the people stopped their noisy quarrel and looked at him in unison.
He is "Scarface", and he was the last ace driver to fight with the "Legendary Stalker" in the last battle to encircle and suppress the "Legendary Stalker". In that battle, the "Legendary Stalker" killed Everyone, but this "Scarface" miraculously survived, and it was still under the premise that he piloted the spaceship and died with the other party.
It was confirmed that there were no survivors during the battlefield cleaning afterwards, but "Scarface" was miraculously found on a certain planet in the battlefield after a period of time.
No one knows how he survived, but he returned to the "Hell Defense Line" after passing a series of tests.
And his face seems to have been irreversibly damaged, even "regeneration" can't make his face reset, and "scar face" seems to regard it as some kind of hateful memorial, which has not been removed through surgery. Instead, he covered his face with a helmet.
It is said that his face is extremely ferocious, enough to scare anyone who is immature into tears, so he has the nickname "Scarface", but no one knows the face under the helmet.
As the only hero who survived the battle with the "Legendary Stalker", everyone in the "Hell Defense Line" maintains the highest respect for him, so when he came to the registration office, everyone used Looking at him with admiration.
Then, the legend went straight to the officer in charge of the registration and said bluntly that he wanted to participate in this operation.
The tone was very flat, but there was a firmness that could not be refuted, and the officer solemnly entered his name into the almost list.
The crowd of onlookers did not let out any exclamation or cheers, but watched all this with the same serious face.
For them, witnessing a battle hero return to battle is all they have to do is keep the event firmly in their minds and pay their respects.
It wasn't until the figure of "Scarface" completely disappeared from their eyes that they returned to the noisy atmosphere before, but what they were talking about now was more about the hero's achievements.
After "Scarface" left everyone's sight and came to a hidden corner, he slowly uncovered a corner of his helmet.
There seemed to be a flash of light under the helmet, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye, like a ghostly phantom.
But "Scarface" didn't completely uncover the helmet, but kept one corner uncovered like this, as if to breathe.
After a while, he sealed the helmet again and returned to the silent state again.
Anyone who knows him knows that he was not so quiet before, but now he is in such a state that they regard it as a sequelae of the battlefield.
Although it is theoretically said that this kind of psychological problem can be adjusted by controlling the secretion of hormones in the body, "Scarface" has not done so, and this is also regarded by those who are familiar with him as a symbol of his unwillingness to forget this memory.
It's just that no one seems to realize that his strange situation seems to be very similar to the most common state of a certain civilization in the galaxy.
And that civilization has also gradually broken away from the state of "silence", as if it is about to participate in this storm.
Their ships began to swarm in the direction where the Hunter civilization had been staying.
The "Exterminators" in the entire galaxy, once or now, seem to be "triggered" by something, and they are about to become the center of the storm.
