The Star Knight

When Opal arrived at the ambush point in Yese Town, the rebels hadn't arrived yet, and the leaf whistle was blown above their heads. They bowed and ran quickly along the branches. The female leader said: "They are expected to arrive here in an hour."

Opal said: "Mushu, go to the shelter..."

Mu Shu said: "Give me a gun, and I can fight with you."

Opal: "No!"

Mu Shu: "Listen clearly, Opal, we have cooperated together before, except for the mechanical course later, my combat training is no less than yours!"

Opal was at a loss, he was thinking about how to persuade Mu Shu, if not, he would hypnotize him to let him go back, the female captain said: "Let him stay."

"This is our homeland." Mushu said, "I can fight too."

Opal said helplessly: "Okay, you have to hide behind me when the battle starts later."

Mu Shu smiled mockingly, and gave him a middle finger. Opal opened his long-sighted glasses, and the woods were so dark that he couldn't see anything. The rebels should be wearing stealth uniforms to avoid the sentry being noticed.

"Opal." Yin Jian's voice sounded through the communicator, saying, "Do you have time? I want to chat with you."

Opal said: "You stay here and watch, I'll go up and have a look."

He entered the shelter of the tree trunk along another passage, and it was very quiet inside, most of the people were asleep. Yin Jian was holding an alloy stick, and the stick was resting on his shoulder, leaning against the exit in a daze.

"How's it going outside?" Yin Jian asked.

Opal said: "Everything is normal, what about you here? Is there anyone suspicious?"

Yin Jian replied: "So far no communication transmission has been found, and communication waves are shielded here. Look below."

Opal nodded, probed to the railing and looked down. The trunk was like a primitive ancient round tower, and the thousand-meter-wide platform descended in a spiral shape, leading to the lowest point.

This spiral dungeon is big enough to accommodate hundreds of millions of people, and the bottom cannot be seen at a glance. A faint green light is flickering deep in the center of the tree trunk.

"What's inside?" Opal asked impatiently.

"It is said that it is their altar." Yin Jian said: "This is the last forbidden place of the Nvluo clan, come and sit for a while, I haven't had a chance to find you in love yet."

Opal laughed and said, "I arranged for you to guard the gate every time, thank you for your hard work."

Yin Jian casually smiled, and Opal sat down beside him, thinking about the purpose of coming to find Yin Dong.

"It's the first time I've seen your weapon," Opal said.

Yin Jian showed him the alloy rod, and said, "My duty in the Moonlight Regiment is to provide medium and short-distance support. The light-energy long rod can be used to advance, attack, retreat, and defend. It mainly protects melee occupations."

Opal looked at it for a while, then asked, "What did you ask me for?"

With the silver band around his neck, and his lips close to his ear, he whispered, "I'm thinking about a question: Where does Wendy's confidence come from? She just believes that with the three of us, we can solve this problem smoothly." Is it a crisis?"

Opal narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Otherwise? Do you think she still has a hand?"

Yin Jian pondered for a moment, and then said: "They think that the mother of Nu Luo will rescue everyone when they are in danger. To be honest, I don't believe it. And I just found out that the remaining members of the council are all down there..." He pointed to the feet of the two of them, and said, "The shining place is like an altar. What are they trying to do? Wendy doesn't necessarily think that we will definitely win, does it?"

Opal thought silently, Yin Jian was right, Wendy couldn't bet all on herself and Lei Meng, they had lived here for a long time, and they probably had other reliance.

"I have never thought that this tree can do anything." Opal looked up, in fact, the two of them are now in the body of the mother of the daughter.

"No." Yin Jian said: "The power of nature is difficult to judge. Maybe a tree can do many things. Instead, I think the question is—whether the mother of the female dill will protect everyone here."

Opal: "..."

Yin Jian stared into Opal's eyes.

Opal understood Yin Dong's meaning almost immediately: all human beings are immigrants to the female star Luo, what is the difference between the locals and the new immigrants?Wendy, Mu Shu and the others think they are female stars, but the mother of female stars may not necessarily admit it.

Perhaps in its eyes, this civil war is just two groups of outsiders fighting on it.

"But we are not this tree." Opal said: "It is impossible for you to guess what a plant with the same lifespan as the planet is thinking..."

Yin Jian said: "Then let's put this question aside for now, assuming that the mother of the girl is willing to help Wendy's side, according to the plan we made before, could it be that Wendy has been sure for a long time? I plan to use the mother of the girl as a countermeasure." A trap for the rebels? Even about the spies, maybe they already knew about it."

Opal's heart was shocked, and at the same time, he lamented that Yinlong was worthy of being a C-level mercenary. He must have experienced many battles, and his accurate grasp of the battle situation is still superior to himself.

Opal finally understood where his unreliability came from.

"It may make sense in this way." Yin Jian continued: "This group of people doesn't look like they are waiting to die. Wendy had already planned before you came, using spies to release false news to lure rebels The army came to attack the village. At the same time, all troops were sent to rescue the hostages. Your arrival is just a bargaining chip in her hands."

Opal nodded slowly and said, "I understand what you said, but what do you want me to do? Change the plan?"

Yin Jian said: "No, I just want to tell you that according to the comprehensive information analysis, the enemy may not be as easy to deal with as Raymond imagined. If you find that Xiao En is too strong, leave him alone, protect yourself, and withdraw here. I'll force Wendy to use her trump card, that's all."

Opal looked at Yindang, Yindang smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"I will be careful." Opal said emotionally, "Thank you."

Yin Jian gave a thumbs up and said, "I wish you a long life."

Opal said: "You too, live a long life."

He got up and ran out of the shelter, and returned to the branch, thinking that he and Raymond still lacked combat experience, perhaps this was also a drawback of the rapid level up, and Yin Dong was much more careful than them.He began to worry vaguely about Raymond again, maybe his mission target would also be on guard.

Now all that is left for the two sides is to buy time. All the sneak attacking team members are on the verge of a formidable enemy, waiting in full battle, staring nervously at the bottom.

"Not yet..." Opal glanced at his watch.

"Here we come!" someone said.

There was a soft sound in the dark night, something flew out from the woods, knocked out the fluorescent lights on the spinning rattan, and the surrounding area gradually dimmed, and the dark rebels stepped on small aircrafts and rushed into it with their jet tail flames. night town.

The first sirens sounded in the night.

"The enemy—ah—" the woman screamed.

With a wave of his hand, Opal jumped out of the high branches with 51 comrades in arms.

There was a loud bang, the air wave of the explosion overturned the wooden house, the fire ignited ragingly, and the light bullets flew across the sky. It was not until the first man's scream pierced the night that the rebel army realized that something was wrong.

"There's an ambush!" The man's voice roared, "Retreat!"

Opal wears infrared lenses, and there are moving red dots everywhere in the dark night. Aim at one of them and pull the trigger, and a chain of electromagnetic light knocks down the crowd.

"Over the head!" someone yelled.

The muzzles of all the rebels pointed high into the sky, and the death squads were like bats leaving their nests, flying around in an instant, and the two sides exchanged fierce fire. Gunshots, artillery fire and bombs sounded one after another. Opal roared: "It's too late!"

There were screams everywhere, more and more people, the incendiary bombs caused a raging fire, and the flames burned up along the entwined vines on the air roots. Opal rolled on the ground and roared: "Organize the defense line!"

There are wounded people rolling in the flames everywhere, and the number of enemies is more than I imagined. A flash of lightning pierced through the night in the distance, and Opal was shocked into the sea of ​​flames. The big sword swung backhand.

With a bang, the black shadow that flew into the sea of ​​flames collided with him!

Before Opal could see the man's face clearly, a series of attacks had already been made with loud noises. The opponent's fists and feet collided with each other, causing him severe pain in the jaw. When they landed, the two rolled over at the same time. He wanted to rush out of the range of the fire circle, but the man chased after him.

Opal had no choice but to turn around and swing his sword. The big sword dragged out a blood-red light in the sea of ​​flames. When the man caught it with one hand, there was another loud noise.

"Damn it!" Opal Zhujian kicked his body sideways, and with a collision, the two flew out in opposite directions at the same time, then took off their coats, and slammed the flames on their bodies.

Opal's coat and trousers were burned to tatters, and it took a while for the flames to be extinguished, and a person walked slowly in the open space.

The man was about the same height as Raymond, thin and gloomy, with steel gauntlets on his hands, and a mechanical hand on his right hand, which rotated 360 degrees, revealing the muzzle of the gun. Opal immediately followed his movements closely, holding the big sword obliquely in both hands The hilt of the sword was reversed, ready to deal with his surprise attack at any time.

"Shawn?" Opal narrowed his eyes.

"Who are you?" Sean was a little surprised.

Opal said: "Mercenary."

"Azeroth has taken too much control, he will regret it." Sean shouted suddenly: "Die!"

The two moved at the same time, Xiao En fired the cannon with his right hand, and then rushed towards Opal, Opal quickly dodged and swept across, blocked with the big sword, and there was a loud bang, and the ear drum hurt.

Even the feet are mechanical!Opal was kicked by such a huge force, and his chest felt tight immediately. After resisting the next blow, he swung his sword twice, and after forcing Xiao En away, the opponent made countless counterattacks. Light and arc strike.

Opal had a hard time coping, the opponent's speed was not fast, but the impact was too strong!Every blow to the great sword used for defense shocked him so much that he couldn't fight back.

There were fewer and fewer people around him, the number of rebels was far more than planned, and there were enemies in all directions. Xiao En pursued and fought fiercely, and more and more rebels surrounded him.

"Kill—!" Yin Jian's voice sounded.

An arc flashed, and the light baton buzzed out afterimages. Sean stopped suddenly, raised his right arm, and the silver fence jumped from a high altitude. The long stick hit Sean's mechanical arm, making a loud noise.

Xiao En turned around and spun, kicked into the air at the same time Opal roared and rushed forward!

After Yindiao retreated, Opal rushed up, and hit again, and then Opal pulled back to avoid it, Yindang swung down with an arc of light on his stick!

With the cooperation of the two mercenaries, Xiao En was immediately at a disadvantage, he couldn't help dodging and retreating, and shouted: "Shoot!"

The light bullets flew all over the sky, Yin Dong played the light stick into a silver plate to block the flying light bullets, Opal reversed the sword body to defend, the two retreated at the same time, and ran to the Qigen passage.

"Let's go!" Yin Jian put away his stick and pushed Opal away.

"There are too many fucking people!" Opal said, "Who said there are only five hundred of them! At least five or six thousand!"

Yin Jian said: "I knew it was like this! Hurry up! They are going to catch up!"

"Mushu is still below!" Opal remembered.

Yin Jian: "I can't save people! I saw your friend! He's been captured! There's no danger for now! Go back first!"

The two rushed to the high place all the way, and the defense forces of the headquarters dumped incendiary agents inside. The rebels who were halfway behind the chase immediately screamed in panic, and all the pursuers withdrew.

Every air root exit was guarded by people, Yindang and Opal rushed all the way into the refuge area, there was an imperceptible commotion inside, and then they all became quiet again.

The fire below gradually extinguished, the Death Squad was completely defeated, and the rebels fired incendiary light bombs one after another. The white light flew to the crown of the mother of dills, stuck to the air roots and branches, and illuminated the night like day.

Rebel soldiers cleared the battlefield and took all the prisoners to the center of the clearing.

Opal leaned on the tree trunk and coughed violently, Yin Jian said: "I'll go find Wendy, don't act on your own, wait here."

"Attention the people above." Sean's hoarse voice sounded: "Give you 15 minutes to consider, surrender, put down your weapons, and come out of the bunker. Otherwise, tear gas and incendiary bombs will be dropped."

Opal took a look with his probe, and the people below immediately pulled the trigger, and an arc of lightning flew towards the tree trunk, tangled and scurrying.

This is troublesome, Opal pressed his ear button and said, "Raymond, did you hear that? Answer me, the situation is out of control, and there are more people than expected..."

Raymond's voice sounded over there: "I rescued successfully, Opal, the guards here are empty, how is the situation on your side?"

The communication was full of rustling sounds, Opal said: "Raymond! Are you there?"

"Yes." The signal was unstable, and Raymond said, "What about you?"

Opal briefly explained the situation, and Raymond said, "Wait, protect yourself."

The night town below was full of rebels, and the captives were dragged to the open space. Opal ran into the shelter, and heard Yin Dong arguing with Wendy.

"People from outside are coming in soon!" Yin Jian's voice came from the deepest part of the trunk.

Wendy said: "We are praying!"

Opal said: "Oh my God."

Raymond's voice sounded: "Opal... drag... it will..."

Opal just had to go out and say, "Raymond!"

Leaving the inside of the tree trunk, the voice became clear, and Raymond said: "Where's Wendy? I just talked to Ellie. We are only [-] kilometers away from you, and we are rushing back at full speed."

Opal: "You asked Ellie if her sister had hysteria, and the rebel army came to the door, and she was actually praying! She was praying!"

Raymond talked with people for a while, and said: "Let them procrastinate! If they can't procrastinate, they will surrender. Ellie said that as long as the congressmen are safe, the war will be reversed at the last moment."

Opal yelled frantically: "What nonsense are you talking about! I won't be able to hold on any longer!"

Raymond: "Let her delay or surrender! The hostages have all been rescued! Wait for me to come back!"

Opal had no choice but to cut off the communication, and ran down the deepest part of the trunk.

Below is a temple-like grand hall. In the center, there are countless vines wrapped around a green luminous body. Six female congressmen, including Wendy, knelt in front of the luminous body and prayed in a low voice.

Yin Jian and Opal looked at each other, Opal said: "What are you doing?!"

Wendy said in a low voice and quickly: "Mother, please save us... Please, save us... Everything we do is for the future of our mother planet..."

Opal yelled in Wendy's ear: "Go out and delay! Raymond has rescued the hostages."

Wendy said, "Pray together, pray together!"

Yin Jian said: "You are all crazy!"

Opal stepped forward and kicked the rattan cage, shouting: "It won't save you!"

"Stop him!" Wendy screamed.

The people around rushed up and stopped Opal, when Opal kicked the vine, he suddenly felt something, narrowed his eyes and remained silent.

The green light has life fluctuations, and its emotions are very strong, exuding disgust and fatigue. These emotions are not aimed at him, but at its devout believers around it.

Opal almost thought that he felt wrong, but the next moment he didn't care about that much, he pushed away the people around him, pulled Wendy up, looked into her eyes, and said, "Raymond brought your sister back, there is still half an hour left You can get here, shouldn't you do something?"

Wendy gasped for a moment, Opal said: "You guys just pray, later Xiao En rushes in with his army, no one can escape!"

Wendy pondered for a moment, then shouted to the people around: "You keep praying, I'll hold them back."

A young man said: "I'm going, Wendy, you must stay here!"

The young man ran up the spiral platform and out of the tree trunk area. Yinpan and Opal walked up to the tree trunk again, and there were 2000 people guarding the periphery, forming a circle.

The flames were extinguished, and the bright white light blinded people. There was a row of prisoners of war kneeling in front of Xiao En, all of them were death squads.

Mu Shu was kneeling in the middle, Opal took a deep breath and said, "I have to find a way to save people."

"Let's talk, Sean." The young man said, "What do you want?"

Sean said: "Everyone, come out of the tree hole, the mother of the girl will not protect you, she is tired of the war on this planet, I will kill a person every minute, 1..."

The young man said: "We are convincing Wendy, she is praying, there are 14 people inside, you can't kill all of them!"

Xiao En said: "Then let's convince her before everyone dies."

One minute later, Sean shot No. 1 prisoner of war in the head. Blood burst from her head, and her head shattered into erupting pieces of meat, and her body fell limp.

Sean said, "Hand over the two mercenaries who launched the ambush."

Opal had an idea, and whispered: "Yinjian, you put on their clothes and pretend to take me down."

Yin Jian was a little hesitant, and Sean counted down: "45, 44..."

The young man said: "Don't shoot! I told Wendy to come out, go now! Don't shoot again!"

Xiao En sneered, Opal grabbed the silver fence and said, "Did you hear that?"

Yin Jian said: "No, it's too dangerous."

Opal said: "Run after saving people..."

Yin Jian: "Time is running out, you see. Don't rush to do it yet."

Sean put away the small hand cannon on the mechanical arm, and stood with his arms around the group of prisoners waiting. He walked two circles behind the prisoners of war, waved his hand and showed the mechanical cannon, and pressed it against the back of Mu Shu's head.

"I thought it was all female soldiers, are you a man?" Sean said.

When Opal was about to speak, the communication rang.

"Opal, I'm back." Raymond said, "I am in ambush behind them. I also rescued 130 soldiers from the defense force. 30 of them are behind. Now I have 100 of them."

Opal said: "The person he is going to kill is Mu Shu, I will distract his attention, you are going to save people."

Raymond: "No, I am going behind the scenes to divert his attention, and you are responsible for saving people."

Sean said: "How did the men get in? Shouldn't the female defense team be all women?"

Mu Shu trembled all over, his lips trembled slightly, and he raised his head. At the same second, there was a commotion behind the encirclement, and someone let out a temporary scream.

first second:

A black arc swayed, and flesh and blood flew across the sky in a short moment. Lei Meng's figure was as fast as a cheetah in the dark night. The first move with the ax light cut through the body of the rebel army blocking the way, and with the second move, the five people in the inner circle At the same time decapitated.

second second:

Raymond landed and swung his tomahawk with his backhand. It was too late to say it, but Sean turned around, raised his mechanical arm, and collided violently with Raymond's tomahawk, making a loud noise.

Lei Meng used his strength to roll in mid-air and retreated.

Third second:

Sean drew out the waist pistol with his left hand and pressed it against the back of Mu Shu's head, and the electromagnetic cannon on the mechanical arm of his right hand popped out, aiming at Raymond's body who was in mid-air.

The infrared sight moved back and forth on Lei Meng's body and fixed it on his forehead.

Sean pulled the trigger with both hands simultaneously.

However, the next moment, his pupils were slightly distracted, as if he forgot what he was going to do for a moment, and then Opal pressed his left hand falsely, falling from the top of Xiao En's head, and slashed cleanly with the big sword in his right hand.

Sean's head twirled and flew into the air, and blood spurted out from the cut of his neck.

In an instant, the crowd exploded, and someone shouted: "Kill them!"

Opal and Raymond each turned over and landed, and dense bullets flew in the distance.

"Don't let them run away!"

"Enemy attack—!"

"There is an ambush!"

Raymond rushed to Opal, and the two of them staggered to cover each other. Raymond set up the light cannon and shot out an arc of light bullets. There was an earth-shattering explosion where it landed. Opal said: "Shoot the burning lamp down!" !"

Raymond said: "You cover!"

The light bullets came and went, and Raymond didn't even look at the four shots in a row. The burning lamp suspended in midair exploded, and the open space was plunged into darkness again. Then, members of the defense team appeared from a distance to kill again, and the situation changed again. There was a change, and the scene was chaotic.

Opal did not forget to shout: "Where is Mu Shu!"

Yin Jian's voice shouted: "Here I am! Everyone retreat!"

The melee intensified until someone yelled, "Retreat! No more fighting!"

The two sides separated like a tide, and the rebels fled to the distance under the night, stepping on the small aircraft they came from, Opal almost tripped over something, and found that it was E7 running around among the dead.

Fortunately, Raymond caught him and shouted in the dark: "Don't chase! I can't recognize my own!"

"Cease fire! Everyone cease fire! Avoid accidental injury!" Opal shouted.

Raymond's hand was always holding Opal's wrist. Some people fired incendiary bombs, and the ground was full of dead people. The bodies of rebels, prisoners of war, death squads, and guards were mixed together.

The remaining members of the rebel army ran to the west, and they were safe for the time being. Opal let out a sigh of relief, his spirit was so high that he couldn't even speak.
