Soul of Burning Steel

At the far end of time and space, in the dark vacuum of the universe, countless warships of different shapes are moving among the stars.

It can be seen that in the torrent of steel that covers the sky and the sun, flames of various colors spurt and push them forward, and thousands of fleets of different affiliations converge into one, like a moving nebula.

And just in front of the battleships of these entities, there are countless extraordinary entities condensed by the power of emotion. They shine with brilliance under the control of their masters, and speed silently from star to star.

Tens of millions, hundreds of millions of soldiers are advancing, from all over the galaxy, civilizations and races from every corner of the world can be seen here, they are staring ahead, with flames burning in their eyes, but they are all silent language, not a word.

And at the top of the fleet, at the front of the emotional fleet, on the bridge of a huge, crimson emotional battleship, an old, cicada-like Tan Ya was calmly watching the vacuum ahead.

The humming caused by the extraordinary force vibrating the atmosphere is the only sound that can be heard at this time.

——Silently, the wheel of emotion is turning——

What broke this silence was the roar of the battleship's engine running.

——The far end of time and space, the world of stars, the second cantilever of the dark galaxy, the forefront of the vanguard.

"What kind of light is that?"

The leader of the 'Great Counteroffensive Campaign', the commander-in-chief of the 'Blazing Sky Fleet', and the commander of Qin Yaren Immortal Kedar looked at the report in front of him with a solemn expression, and muttered to himself: "The data displayed by the spiritual energy detector is completely It’s random—a source of change in supergravity has been detected ahead—don’t be kidding, according to this data, the entire galaxy will fall apart!”

Although he reprimanded, the commander put the record in his hand on the console a little irritatedly, and he subconsciously turned his compound eyes, as if he was thinking.

What an inconceivable power... However, instead of saying that this is a false record presented by the mechanical disorder, and accidentally wrote seven or eight extra zeros, it is better to admit that what it says is the truth.

"What's more, with the predictive ability brought about by my immortal power... I can be sure that this is indeed true."

Closing the eyelids of the compound eyes, Kedar fell into silence. He just used his own power to try to perceive the origin of the strange light in the center of the dark galaxy in the distance, but in just a moment, the power he invested was wiped out——The speed is so fast , he couldn't even let him be affected and injured.

All of this is true—the entire dark galaxy is falling apart because of the battle of the strong.

In the place where the light shines, it is inconceivable that even the power of the immortal is overflowing and flying, just like the origin of the shock that set off a tsunami, constantly pushing the stars of the entire galaxy outward, making them Completely disintegrated - just the aftermath made the entire star world's largest coalition of star fleets tremble and hesitate.

"Are we still going?"

"To be honest, even the enemy can't be found now."

Kedar could hear the doubtful voices of the coalition soldiers behind him. Their instincts were fearful, keeping them away from danger, away from this galaxy that had turned into a battlefield.

"Most of the evil god's family suddenly dissipated just now, and most of the void monsters born due to the plague were also killed by us... Is it necessary to move forward now?"

"Our mission should be completed!"

Kedar silently listened to the self-talk of these soldiers, and what they said was right—since their venerable iron leader and the God of Hell in the atrium went to the core of the dark galaxy, a large number of evil gods have been like The flying smoke dissipated, and the speed at which the plague spread was greatly reduced. Today, the only task of the entire large counterattack fleet is to build a star base on the already occupied river system lightsaber node.

But in the face of the situation where the entire galaxy is about to fall apart, whether to build a star base will definitely need another discussion.

"I think we should be able to retreat, Commander."

Kedar heard that a familiar voice was using psychic communication to him. It was the voice of Falla, the adjutant who was once a subordinate of the Agni Fleet and now his adjutant, and he said with some anxiety: "Since the enemies have been If it is wiped out, then there is no point in us continuing to stay."

"Retreat to the 'landing point' and wait for the next order. There has been no order for the life preservation program since just now, and everyone is a little panicked."

"Yeah."

Standing at the front of his warship, the cicada-like fleet commander stared ahead at the dark starry sky and endless stars, he calmly responded: "Indeed, our mission has been completed—we just wiped out the past few The family of the evil gods, who may not be able to be wiped out in ten years, has repaid a lot of lost land, and greatly vented the evil spirit of being invaded for many years."

"But does it really make sense?!"

The sudden angry voice made the originally noisy communication in the rear completely silent in an instant. Kedar did not look back, and he said in a deep voice: "Our respectable leader, and the god of your people in the courtyard, isn't it just ahead—— Do you fight where the light shines?!"

"We soldiers have worked so hard to defeat so many Chaos Families. We came here only to complete the 'mission', not to reclaim our tomorrow that was taken away by the evil god!"

Taking a deep breath, Kedar suppressed his sudden surge of anger. He had already felt that the side effects of the Ring of Courage were gradually appearing on him after he had gone deep into the path of emotional power— —And the most obvious one is the sudden surge of anger.

"...I am very clear, and you are also very clear."

Repressed, but changed back to a calm tone, spreading in the already silent psychic communication channel, Kedar stared into the distance alone, he said softly: "The battle ahead, I am afraid that it is no longer an 'immortal' or even an 'infinite light' 'The lower level can participate, the existence that is fighting our iron leader and the gods of the people in the courtyard is so powerful that it is unimaginable, and their fierce battle can even shake the foundation of the galaxy."

—but that's the moment to charge, isn't it?

"Let's go."

Heart and mouth made different voices, and the calm old commander suddenly issued a clear command to retreat: "Indeed, it is meaningless for you to stay here, leave quickly, although according to the speed of light, the shock wave in the distance will take a few seconds." It will take thousands of years to get here, but if there is a superluminal leap attack, then we are already in danger when we see the abnormal brilliance."

"...No, Commander, do you think we are afraid of death?"

The long silence in the communication channel was broken by an angry rhetorical question: "We are just afraid of death and are worthless - since you have said so, then even if there is purgatory ahead, I will lead the team to charge forward!"

"Me too!"

"Who dares to participate in the big counter-offensive campaign and fight in the front line? Who would be afraid of death?!"

"I have no intention of going back alive at all, Commander, don't insult our courage!"

At this moment, the communication channel became a million times noisier than before. Countless languages, countless different voices and frequencies, and even countless tweets and roars sounded in it—but with the holder of the highest authority of the channel, Commander Qin Yaren Kedar turned on the overall mute, and the entire channel immediately became extremely silent.

"If life is the bargaining chip of destiny, then there is no equality in this world."

The old man's faint voice sounded in the cold tone of the translator: "You are right, there is no point in staying, after all, you are too weak... No, we are too weak, even if you see thousands of people The aftermath tens of thousands of light years away will be timid."

"As chips, our lives are simply insignificant... But no matter how big or small the chips are, the only thing they have in common is the owner's control over his own chips—that is, the determination called death and sacrifice."

"But is it necessary?"

Speaking of this, Kedar's tone paused, as if to leave time for others to think. After a while, he continued to say slowly: "For us, it is not worth dying for, and it is not" To destroy the enemy', but to protect your family and your own race, is to protect what is most important to you. For this purpose, choose decisively to 'retreat' and avoid meaningless death caused by momentary anger. This is the real thing courage!"

These words are indeed very reasonable. Most of the officers and soldiers of the counterattack fleet who were silenced were persuaded, not to mention that they planned to retreat temporarily to see the situation... Only the people in the atrium who are most familiar with Kedar, his former adjutant Faya sensed something wrong from this tone.

——'Choosing to retreat in order to protect important people is the real courage', this sentence is indeed true...but! Commander Kedar, is there really someone important? !

Sure enough, when Falla was worried, he could see that the front of the emotional fleet, the huge, crimson Star Destroyer came out impressively, its engine was running at full power, and it was heading towards Flying forward, unstoppable.

"commander!"

Subconsciously activated his own battleship, Falla wanted to catch up with his old leader, and there were quite a few people who subconsciously did the same thing as him—but, for some reason, an inexplicable force interfered with their pursuit of Controlled by emotional power, they couldn't activate their warships at all for a while, and could only watch the huge star destroyer disappear in the halo of the transition.

It wasn't until this time that the man in the atrium, who was angrily manipulating his battleship and punching the console with his fist, heard the old man's last message.

"I have nothing left, Falla."

"So, even if it's pity or sympathy, let me, a lonely old man, fight to the end with the courage of sacrifice—and you young people who still have a future."

"Commander!!" Hearing this, Faya gritted his teeth. He suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction where the old man disappeared. He could hear Kedar's almost disappearing psychic message lingering in his ears.

"Just replace me and witness with your own eyes the glory of tomorrow."

But at this moment, Kedar, who was leaping forward at the fastest speed in his life, thought of many things in his heart.

Loved ones, loved children, loved relatives and friends, loved country and civilization.

And, the world I love.

"What are you talking about?"

The old man drove the entire battleship through time and space. He felt that endless power was pouring in from afar, burning his life and soul. Feeling this, Kedar seemed to be mocking himself, but he also smiled frankly. : "I still have life."

【I always strive for a goal.

For myself, for my children, for my civilization and this world.

But is it really necessary? It's just a simple 'for what', so I gave my life as a bargaining chip... If one reason is gone, I will change to another, it's like finding an excuse to die.

To live on with all your strength, no matter how desperate you are, to see tomorrow's future is the greatest courage, isn't it?

But... I know, I know clearly, this is the real 'courage'.

But I still do it.

Not sacrifice, not determination, not for anyone, not because of any love or hate.

I just want to see the light. 】

"Knew it."

Jumping coordinates, rushing into time and space, the old man stared at the ever brighter and more distorted endless divine light rising from the center of the galaxy—at this moment, on Kedar's joint limbs, the scarlet ring was shining brightly. Named the brilliance of 'divine power' - treat it as nothing, he smiled and whispered to himself.

"Even if it's a little bit, just a little bit, an insignificant bit... I want to go and participate in the battle."

Even if it is a little bit inconspicuous, I want to witness this light piercing the darkness among the stars.

——The radiance called courage shines! ——

Its name is the Ringbearer of Courage, Kedar!

At the other end of time and space, where the vortex roared, one of the rings of the four gods began to light up and echoed. He detected his apostle, and an individual capable of carrying this emotion was born far away—so, he There was a roar, a sea of ​​emotion.

Another chip of cause and effect has been settled.

Here, possibility, begins to close——

The world of stars, the center of the dark galaxy, the big black hole in the center of the galaxy, where the ultimate superpowers confront each other, the silver and blue space is fighting fiercely with the dark space from the other side of the void.

At this moment, all external damage disappeared, and the three parties in the battle focused all their energies on each other. In the chaotic space that covered the big black hole in the center of the galaxy and mixed with three colors, nothing could be seen. , nothing can be perceived, only the extremely bright light distorts time and space, causing everything in the galaxy to fall apart and fragmented.

Devouring each other, robbing each other, and dominating each other—the constants of the universe have been tampered with, and the speed of light has been manipulated. In this battle, the pros and cons are completely at odds with each other, and there is a perfect balance. No one can overwhelm the other, and the only thing that can determine victory Negative, only the 'will' of both sides that is equally strong enough to persist until the end of the multiverse.

Everything in this battle seems to last forever.

Until a bright red star appeared in this grand battlefield.

It tosses, like a small sampan in a raging wave, swept by the undulating distorted space, unable to control itself, but with a burst of divine power, it can finally control its own direction with 'courage'——so , the next moment, he charged without hesitation, and sank into the deep darkness.

Soon, shorter than a moment, more silent than a drop of water melting into the sea, without even a single wave, the red bright star was eroded by the dark different space and turned into nothingness, even if it was The remaining divine power only shone for a moment before being completely swallowed up by the darkness.

Only for a brief moment.

— but a hero! I never care how long I can shine!

At the moment when the darkness melted the insignificant trace of emotional power to it, the balance was broken, and the "just a little" difference was enough to cause a chain effect like heaven and earth!

"It's now!"

He could hear the roar of the silver giant god phantom resounding through the galaxy. At this moment, he sensed the sudden burst of divine power from the rings of the four gods in the emotional vortex. Condensing this is a 'coincidence' ’ It was still the power of the 'inevitability of cause and effect', Joshua clenched his fist of 'illusion' without hesitation, and slammed heavily at the solipsistic beast!

[Beyond the limit: self-destruct limit - overclocking 400%]

On the other side, the Steel Python and the triple curtain also charged forward together with the warriors with all their strength in an aura that almost burned them out!

And the ultimate sublimation aggregate is the same, it silently gathers all its remaining power, condenses everything it can control, makes a final explosion, and pushes forward.

In an instant, like eternity.

Infinite light ignites everything in the observable universe, and returns everything to the moment of the big bang.

The second change, asking for a monthly ticket

Ah, this volume is almost over...
