desire reconciliation

It is not a good thing that the analysis results are OK, because it means that there is no progress.

If this is the case, we still have to wait another eight days, or even eight days may still not make any progress. Then Lancelot won the game in such a hurry and rushed over with a fleet, so he can only be anxious now.

There was silence in the meeting room. The person in charge of the mecha team couldn't get in to speak in front of these people who deal with numbers. The person in charge of the mecha team who hadn't spoken since entering the conference room spoke, breaking the deadlock. .

"Admiral Lancelot, I have a proposal."

All eyes turned to the person in charge of the mecha team, he was a familiar face.

The person in charge of the mecha team this time is Shang Yi, who was the instructor of the class next to Lancelot just a few days ago.

At that time, Lancelot was a little shocked to see Shang Yi's name on the list.After all, this person was one of the earliest students of the Mecha Department. Many of the former veterans had been on the battlefield many times and had higher ranks. Only Shang Yi had never volunteered to go to the front line.

He has been staying in the Mecha Department to continue teaching and educating people since he graduated from the Mecha Department, and he is no less involved in the construction of the Mecha Department of the Empire than those veterans.

Even if the choice is different, he is still contributing his own strength for the empire and the mech department. It may just be that in the eyes of the public, killing insects on the battlefield makes people more excited.

Lancelot has always felt that Shang Yi is also very worthy of respect. After a period of contact in the Mecha Department, Lancelot also saw that Shang Yi is good at teaching and educating people, and it seems that he will always be in the present He continued to shine in his position, so it was a bit of a surprise to Lancelot that he took the initiative to volunteer this time without any special circumstances.

Lancelot nodded for him to continue.

"Perhaps it is possible to let one person drive the mecha, drop the mecha at the place where Marshal Uriah drove the mecha, follow the path Marshal Uriah traveled until the coordinates of the last signal sent before disappearing, and walk again .”

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay. This proposal obviously did not conform to the general principle of the search, and it could even be said to be a bit bizarre.

Shang Yi continued: "I have this proposal based on two points. One is that the piloting level of the investigators' mechs is not as high as that of Marshal Uriah. At present, they are searching in blocks and areas. It is like a detective solving a case. The detective must be from the beginning to the end. Know all sides of the case. If the detective

It is divided into several parts, and each person only knows a small part of the matter, which is tantamount to the blind man trying to figure out the elephant. Even if the result is finally pieced together without the invisible thread connecting the events, the truth is still torn, isn't it? real truth. "

"If there is still no progress in the connection, that is the second point I think, go through the journey again, and try to choose the next path from the way Marshal Uriah thinks, but this requires the mech pilot to understand Uriah very well. Marshal Uriah, and if this dangerous process is to be repeated, this person who knows Marshal Uriah very well also needs to have superb mech piloting skills."

As soon as this was said, the person in charge of the research team raised an objection: "With all due respect, I don't think this method is feasible. I don’t know how to look at it from a scientific point of view. The opportunity cost of this matter is too high. I don’t know much about mechs, but I know a little bit about it. There are problems with Marshal Uriah’s mission. Then the strength of the person sent here is at least comparable to that of Marshal Uriah, and if there is another accident with a person who can be compared with Marshal Uriah's mech operation ability, then the risk of this matter is too great."

The Mecha Department and the Research Institute are the two departments with the greatest power in the military department, and they are also the two departments that dislike each other the most. Shang Yi, the head of the Mecha Department, is not to be outdone after hearing what he said.

"Then if you want to see Marshal Uriah disappear, you can only be anxious. If Marshal Uriah is not found after eight days and there is no rescue supplies, even if Marshal Uriah is the top Alpha, he is still made of meat. will die."

The person in charge of the research department slapped the table and stood up: "You are changing the concept secretly. I am just denying your proposal. I am not saying that Marshal Uriah will not be saved. In terms of facts, I am objectively comparing the opportunities of various solutions. Cost, don't try to convince me with your mecha department's deceptive thought kidnapping method, thinking that you have occupied the moral high ground and can judge others at will."

He took a breath and continued: "Then let me ask you the other way around, if Marshal Uriah knows that we are going to send someone who is comparable to him in strength, risking his life to save him, he may even lose two people in a row. As a marshal and the mainstay of the military, will Marshal Uriah agree with you? Then can I also say that you are imposing your own ideas on Marshal Uriah?"

side investigation team

Seeing that the two great Buddhas were about to fight, some people hurried out to smooth things over.

"Calm down, both of you, for the sake of Marshal Uriah, and for the sake of the military's peace."

Another person came out to appease: "That's right. Besides, this proposal is based on the fact that there is such a person. He needs to have excellent mech operation skills and also needs to know Marshal Uriah very well. Let's see if there is such a person. Whether a person is willing to sacrifice his life to save Marshal Uriah, it is not too late to discuss the opportunity cost of this matter, if there is no such person, or if this person is unwilling to go, then there is no need for everyone to argue, right?"

When several responsible persons were about to upgrade this small meeting into a debate about the height of thinking, ethics and morality, Lancelot, as the initiator of this meeting, was silent on the sidelines. He was now thinking about Shang Yi's proposal. feasibility.

The head of the investigation team tried to smooth things over, and the question was thrown back to Lancelot.

Several people in charge have handed over the decision on this matter to Lancelot, and he is not in a hurry to affirm or deny anyone's point of view.

He said: "Dividing the area to search for the route is already the best solution. Even if we send more people to investigate, the number of people will not be of much use. Now the situation in Zongyuan is getting worse. Only a few people in charge and high-level military officials know the news, but if there is no news about Marshal Uriah after eight days, I am afraid that this matter will not be hidden."

Several people in charge also knew the seriousness of this matter. If the news of the marshal's disappearance reached the ears of soldiers or the people, it might not be as simple as panic.

The expressions of the persons in charge were also ugly, and Lancelot continued: "Going back to the question just mentioned, if there is really someone who is capable of mecha operation and knows Marshal Uriah very well, and this person is willing to go Try this method, will you agree?"

This proposal was put forward by Shang Yi, the person in charge of the Mech Department. Naturally, he has no objection. The person in charge of the research department has heard what Lancelot just said about the stakes, and has figured out his position: "Indeed, if Uriah If there is still no news from the marshal after eight days, it will be troublesome, if there is such a person, and he is willing to go, then I have nothing to say."

The remaining few responsible persons also expressed that they could accept it, so the question arises again, where can such a person be found?

How many people did Lancelot meet?

After agreeing to this matter, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he stood up and said, "Bei Mian, who won the mecha competition, I just came to try my hand."

"The location where the armor is expected to be released is approaching."

"The energy connection is in place."

"The supplies are ready."

"Mobile units are in place."

"The armor is numbered HJ002, code-named Beimian, and the operator of the armor is Colonel Lancelot. Would you like to execute the delivery mission?"

"implement."

Following Lancelot's confirmation statement, the pure white mecha separated from the aircraft carrier and entered the predetermined orbit.

On the huge display screen in the main control room of the aircraft carrier, a pure white mecha inlaid with silver borders appeared in the interstellar space. It was a color that would not exist in the galaxy, and it was an abrupt and natural point in the galaxy.

Lancelot checked the various data on the console in the operating room. Each generation of the consoles of the Imperial Mecha is different, and the operation forms are similar. If the proportion of mental power control is large, it can be completely separated from the console. The consoles are slightly different. It can also be ignored completely.

Beimian and Nanmian are the two top two mechas in the empire, and they were also manufactured in the same batch. Therefore, Lancelot, who had seen Nanmian for the first time, did not feel at all strangeness

There was a sound in the communication channel, which was the frequency band from the main control room of the aircraft carrier.

"Colonel Lancelot, please put your own safety first and keep the communication channel open at all times. I wish you all the best."

The pure white mecha driven by Lancelot was hovering in space. After communicating with the main control room, propellant was sprayed from the tail and back of the mecha, and the mecha’s thrust reached the threshold in the shortest possible time. The screen in the main control room of the aircraft carrier could no longer capture the slightest shadow of the pure white mecha.

As the distance from the aircraft carrier got farther and farther away, the mecha driven by Lancelot gradually entered deeper into the no-man's land. The number of meteorite debris increased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the requirements for the mecha's operation became higher and higher. come higher.

In the beginning, Lancelot only used 20% of his mental power to control the mecha, and he could easily avoid those large interstellar floating objects. After driving for more than three hours, the number of floating objects beside the mecha increased. In order to maintain To keep the flying speed, Lancelot also had to increase the ratio of mental power control.

Beside him are pieces of irregular meteorite fragments, and the scenery around him is rapidly retreating, and in front of him is an endless vast expanse.

interstellar.

The flight time was close to six hours, and Lancelot was flying according to the flight record information sent back when Uriah disappeared. He didn't even have time to replenish nutrients, and the proportion of mental power control accounted for 80%. Maintain the same flight speed as Uriah at that time.

The scenery in front of him and behind him was exactly the same. At that time, Uriah took on the most severe and lonely task alone, searching for an information transfer station in this large and somewhat outrageous rubble belt.

Lancelot would pay attention every time he passed a large-scale planetary debris. The floating objects in the interstellar space would move on a small scale with time, but the range of motion of these larger floating objects was very small, so someone would put these Floaters serve as natural guideposts.

Before setting off, Lancelot had studied Uriah's travel path, but unfortunately he didn't see any regularity. Now he was observing some large floating objects on the way during the operation, and wanted to spy on Uriah's search. something that comes to mind.

Uriah lost contact about seven hours into the flight, and Lancelot saw that it would be seven hours before his departure time.

Lancelot was completely absorbed in the display screen and mental power control in front of him, and he didn't even notice that his heart was beating faster at this moment.

Even though Lancelot has almost memorized the positions of all the large floating objects passing by along the way in the past seven hours, and even the orientation of some traces, when the pure white mech successfully reaches the last coordinate point before Uriah's trace Still lost.

Lancelot didn't find any regular pointers from those floating objects, and it was really difficult to spy on Uriah's thoughts from the path.

The pure white mecha hovered in the vast deep blue space again after sailing for seven hours.

He now has two choices, one is to return without success, turn around and wait for news from the search personnel.

The other is to try your luck and choose a direction at random to continue.

But how likely is the latter to succeed?

Rays are emitted from a point to all directions, and the possibilities are infinite in three-dimensional space.

It may be that the mecha's left foot exerted a little more strength, causing the mecha to deviate from a certain direction by [-] degrees, which would magnify this seemingly insignificant angle, and the gap may have widened tens of thousands of kilometers away. tens of thousands of times, zero point

A deviation of zero degrees would cause their end points to be completely in two places.

He was not reconciled, and he was not reconciled to being at a loss after he had put in so much effort.

He is not reconciled to sinking himself into an Omega because of his gender differentiation.

Also unwilling to give up on this, maybe Lancelot is not a person who accepts fate in his bones. In order to fulfill the bet with the old emperor and for his own dream, he became an Omega by gender, but entered the military headquarters that is almost all Alpha. You can go incognito, give up all your privileges, and start from scratch.

In the past, he made all kinds of decisions with the most rational and calm mind, but at this moment, he abandoned his rationality and made the first impulse in his life.

The pure white mecha suddenly turned a few times on the spot, and when the speed dropped to zero, the mecha stopped slowly, and Lancelot started the engine again in the direction where it stopped.

Lancelot, who has always been confident in taking exams and writing without hesitation, now has no hesitation in the path chosen by luck.

He is not someone who will regret his choice, even if it is a decision made completely impulsively, he will move forward without hesitation.

Flying along the selected direction, the floating debris unexpectedly decreased.

Lancelot increased the speed again, and at the same time adjusted the signal receiving frequency band to the maximum. With this receiving range, even if someone dropped an ancient electronic terminal here 30 years ago, Lancelot's mech can capture it. its airwaves.

This time Lancelot didn't look at the time anymore, he just kept going, flying, flying...

The surrounding scenery remained unchanged, and the number of large meteorites exceeded one hundred, more than two hundred, more than three hundred, more than five hundred...

He would notice each of the darker stones, and sometimes even misread them, mistaking them for part of the Southern Crown.

Lancelot suddenly seemed to understand a little bit the passages written in those poems.

Those were the poems and songs he disliked the most when he was a child. They were obscure and difficult to understand, but he had to memorize them and write them silently.

"I waited for the morning, waited for the noon, waited for the dusk, waited for the evening, I was still looking for your figure in the sleep of the night, I really hope that you will become the first ray of sunshine that wakes me up tomorrow morning, But I was also afraid that when I opened my eyes, the sunlight would be just a lonely spot on the damp attic floor, and if I stretched out my hand to grab it, there would be no trace.

"

The floating objects gradually decreased, and the proportion of mental power control decreased accordingly. Perhaps it was because of the lack of nutritional supplements for a long time and high-intensity mental power consumption, or maybe it was the figure of the poems that repeated in his mind over and over again. Lancelot unexpectedly He broke the taboo of mecha operation, and fell asleep during the operation.

After an unknown amount of time, he was awakened by someone, and his head was in a daze. When he woke up, he saw the figure of that person and even felt that it was just a dream formed by his obsession.

It wasn't until that familiar and somewhat smacking voice sounded again that Lancelot was sure that what was in front of him was real and not a dream.

There was a smile in that voice.

"In this way, I won the bet two months ago."
