Chapter 274 The old commander’s last trump card
The players at this moment were talking while heading to their destination.
Many big shots have speculations about that mysterious civilization.
Although everyone's guesses about their strength are different, everyone can be sure that that civilization must be stronger than them.
Now, although the players' own strength has been restored, they are still not sure that they can defeat that mysterious civilization.
So the best way for them now is to raid.
Take advantage of the enemy's carelessness when they come over and launch an all-out attack on them.
Kill them without giving them any time to react.
So the players at this moment know very well that if they want to defeat this civilization, they only have one chance to take action.
With this opportunity to take action, all players will use up all their energy-devouring points.
Whether it is success or failure depends on this wave!
After arriving at the predetermined location, all players were ready.
I saw countless energy balls gathering in front of the springtail.
The members of the Taylor civilization fleet that were sailing at this time had no idea what they were about to face.
Just imagine what it would be like if 60,000 springtails all put their lives on the line.
On the frontal battlefield, it is quite difficult for the warships of the Taylor civilization to defeat the springtails in normal one-on-one battles.
Let alone now.
We must know that their current entire fleet, including the remaining defeated soldiers, has more than 6,000 warships.
But now their more than 6,000 warships have to face the desperate efforts of the players' 60,000-strong army, so I asked them if they were afraid.
Immediately afterwards, when the battleships of the Taylor civilization appeared in this galaxy, the players' long-awaited attacks were launched almost at the same time.
As countless light balls flew out, the entire area was illuminated by these faint green light balls.
These light balls are like fireflies all over the sky. Although they are dim, they contain the power to illuminate the night sky.
The universe is dark and cold, but the dark and cold space of the universe at this moment cannot cover up the scorching heat of these light balls.
The moment their spacecraft landed, everything around them was lit up by a dazzling light.
This astonishing brightness is still very dazzling even if it is weakened a lot by the vision robot passing by on the ship.
At this moment everyone in Taylor's civilization saw the light.
Even though their warship was attacked by a swarm of insects that had already been ambushing it when it escaped from the jump, so they opened the shield in advance.
But when facing the players' desperate attacks, their preparations seemed so useless.
And when the light fades, it's all over.
All that was left in the area were some dilapidated battleship wreckage. The battleships of the Taylor civilization and the mechas inside the battleships disappeared in a wave of attacks.
"Huh? We succeeded now?" Looking at the wreckage of the battleship in front of them, many players felt a little incredible.
It was so easy and successful that it felt like a dream to them.
"Brothers, if I wasn't blind just now, these battleships don't seem to be from that mysterious civilization. They seem to be from the Taylor civilization."
"What?"
"I took a glance at those battleships when they landed just now, and I saw that they looked like they belonged to the Taylor civilization."
"Brothers, it's true, it's the battleship of the Taylor civilization. Take a look at the wreckage of the battleship not far away. It has the symbol of their civilization on it."
As the player's words fell, the other players immediately turned their attention to that position.
"Holy shit, it's true!"
"What the hell, let's ambush that mysterious civilization. This stupid Taylor civilization came here to join in the fun."
"I accepted it, and all my hard work was in vain."
"Brothers, it seems that this mysterious civilization is still on its way. This wave is just a big mistake."
"It's over, it's over. Let's all go back and recover our energy. Although we made a mistake in this wave, it is undeniable that our attack power in this wave is strong enough.
I thought about it for a while, and with our attack power, even a mysterious civilization might not be able to withstand it. ”
…………
In this way, the players who had made a big mistake returned to their posts and began the hard progress process again.
At this time, where the old commander Cortlet was detained by Taylor Civilization, he slowly took out a special communicator.
Although this old commander is currently imprisoned, his situation is quite special.
Therefore, the management of him is relatively loose. Unless there are some particularly dangerous things, he can use them at will.
At this moment, he looked at the information coming back from the communication device and was silent for a long time.
This message was sent by Commander Enley when he reached the Taylor 1 area.
The message included Enley's speculation, which he also emphasized.
If he did not reply to any messages after entering Taylor 1, then the conjecture that the Taylor 1 bugs were not wiped out by super weapons was established.
The old commander Kortle knew exactly what this conjecture meant.
And looking at the communication device that has yet to reply, the old commander can basically conclude that Enlei's speculation has come true.
"It seems that it is confirmed." Xujiu Kotlei said slowly.
"Even super weapons of that level failed to destroy the insect swarm. So next, how can our civilization resist this disaster?"
Having said this, the old commander let out a long sigh, and then he stood up and came to the edge of the cell.
He took one last look at the outside world through a thick layer of glass.
Then his eyes suddenly became firm.
I saw him slowly walking to the bed and then lying down.
After tidying up his appearance, he took out a pill he had prepared for himself before and swallowed it.
The moment the pill entered his mouth, the drug's power immediately began to take effect, and the old commander slowly closed his eyes.
And at the moment when his heart stopped, he was in Galaxy 37 of the Taylor Civilization, on the front line between them and the Eternal Night Civilization.
A signal tower in the base emitted a special signal in the direction of Yongye Civilization.
Except for Galaxy 37, at the headquarters of the home star of Taylor Civilization, the projection of the old commander suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Then I saw him speak slowly.
By the time you see this message, I should be dead.
For ordinary people in civilization, I am a great commander. Perhaps many of you regard me as the goal to fight for.
But only I know that I am actually just a coward, and the projection screen in the base was prepared by me from the beginning.
Of course, I am not a prophet, but it has become my habit to leave this projection in the base.
I remember that was my first time commanding a battle. At that time, I had just become a commander and had to fight several times the number of enemies.
I knew very well that our chance of winning that battle was less than 10%, and I also knew that I might lead thousands of my soldiers to hell together.
So I recorded a video in the base in advance, and this video is my apology to the dead soldiers.
But what I never expected was that we won that battle.
I also became famous because of that commanding battle. Although my status has changed since then, this habit of mine has been retained.
I record a video like this every time before I go on an expedition, and the trigger for this video is the moment when I have a cardiac arrest.
From the initial apology to the important information later, the content left behind is constantly changing, but my behavior has not changed.
As I directed battle after battle, I was thinking that this projection would never be triggered.
But what I never expected was that when I retired, it would be triggered in this way.
When you see this video, you must have guessed what I want to say.
That's right, what I want to say is about the swarm.
We all know very little about this race, and perhaps from the information we have obtained, some people will think that we know them well.
But after experiencing that war, I realized how little we knew about them. They have intelligence no less than ours, and they have very powerful combat capabilities.
I still haven't figured out why they, as collective consciousness, have such high individual intelligence, but I think I won't have the chance to figure it out again.
After saying this with emotion, the old commander suddenly changed the subject.
Because many people in our civilization have different ideas, everyone among us has his or her own side.
In order to gain more support for their own team, some people will use some special methods.
It is even said that many of them will make a fuss about the war.
But please remember that in the past we fought wars within civilizations, and the price of our failure in such a war was too low.
Low enough that our entire civilization can easily afford it.
However, please do not put this mentality into the war between civilizations.
Especially when it comes to that evil and terrifying race.
After the war with Yongye Civilization, we once used the intelligence brain to conduct deductions.
The result of our deduction is that if we are defeated, we have a 60% probability of becoming a colonial galaxy of the Eternal Night Civilization.
And all of us will be their slaves.
Because we are all independent consciousness, we have common topics, and we can also use each other together, because these commonalities make the probability of our entire civilization being destroyed infinitely lowered.
But the Zerg are different. As a group consciousness, their concepts are very different from ours. If we are defeated, we will not be enslaved by them, we will only become their nourishment.
Therefore, some of us are asked to face up to the disaster that this failure has brought to civilization.
After going through two large-scale battles, you must be able to see the gap between us and them.
If we want civilization to continue, we can only unite.
The union here not only refers to the Taylor civilization, but of course also includes the Eternal Night Civilization.
That's right, unite with Yongye Civilization.
This may be too incredible for you, but I can tell you clearly.
If we want our civilization to continue, we can only do this.
Because our civilization has lost the best opportunity to attack in the early stages of the war, so now we can only turn to other civilizations for help.
Eternal Night Civilization is undoubtedly the best choice, although we are currently at war with each other.
But when this Zerg that can easily destroy both of our civilizations appears, they must also know that alliance is our only way out.
I have opened the door to negotiations with Yongye Civilization for you. The next thing you have to do is to coordinate all the resources of Taylor Civilization, and then fight against the Zerg with Yongye Civilization.
This is our only chance.
Of course, you may be thinking that with my prestige, I only need to lobby around civilization to achieve the same goal. I don't need to be as decisive as I am now.
I don’t know if you still remember what I said at the beginning, but I am actually a coward.
Because I am not sure to defeat this enemy, and I don’t want to see the Taylor civilization if it is defeated.
So I chose this path. Of course, my death is not meaningless, because I used my death to open the door to negotiations between you and Yongye Civilization.
. . . . . .
At this moment, as the projection of the old commander of Taylor Civilization disappeared, everyone present had their eyes widened with disbelief on their faces.
Obviously they did not expect that things would develop into such a situation.
Of course, they did not expect that this legendary commander would end his life in such a ridiculous way.
It's true that at the last moment, this commander chose to escape.
No one knows what his original intention was when he chose to escape. It is possible that, as he said, he did not have the courage to face this, or that he no longer wanted to serve the corrupt people of civilization and chose to end himself.
But as a Taylor, he had to be responsible for other Taylors, so he left the final key.
At this moment, no one knows what the old commander is thinking. Perhaps it is the former, perhaps the latter, or both.
At this time, inside Yongye Civilization.
All the personnel gathered together, and they all fell silent when they saw the message from the old commander.
"What's the verification result?" At this time, the leader looked at his subordinates who were trotting towards him and asked.
The subordinate who heard the leader's question nodded, and then said: "What Commander Taylor Civilization said is true.
There was indeed one of our micro-robots in that pill, and now that micro-robot was inside his body.
After testing, it was determined that his vital signs had disappeared. ”
Having said this, the subordinate then asked: "Chief, do we need to detonate it?"
The leader shook his head when he heard the question from his subordinates, "Although we are in different camps, his behavior is great."
"He knew that because of him, the battle between our civilization and their civilization could not last for a long time."
"So through his self-sacrifice, we can cooperate with them in a civilized manner and have no worries."
"In this case, even if their civilization wants to regret it in the end, we will have a great advantage.
By forcing us to cooperate with them through this self-destructive method, it can be seen that their current situation is not particularly good. ”
When the leader arrived, one of his subordinates asked: "Chief, if this is the case, then we can completely let them fend for themselves."
"Fend for yourself? You underestimate this commander too much. This commander sent a total of three different messages before he died."
"The first copy was sent to their home planet. I think I can probably guess the specific content, and the second copy was sent to us."
At this point the leader paused, "However, the third copy is a coordinate map that records all the coordinate points of their civilization and our civilization, and he sent this coordinate map to the Zerg."
"What!"
"He actually sent the coordinates of both civilizations to the Zerg!"
At this moment, as the words in his hand fell, everyone present was dumbfounded.
Unexpectedly, this commander would use such desperate measures to force the two civilizations to cooperate.
Doesn't the commander know what the consequences will be if he does this?
No. . . Maybe he knows.
Perhaps in his eyes, this will be the only chance for the two civilizations to continue.
"Zerg..." Looking at the noisy meeting hall, the leader of Yongye Civilization murmured.
They had been in contact with this group not long ago.
At that time, this mysterious race invaded one of their colonial systems and plundered all the resources of that system.
And they also sent a fleet to that galaxy to fight the Zerg.
The result of the battle made them feel sad. The Zerg mastered a special weapon.
And this weapon forced their entire fleet to choose to self-destruct to protect the coordinates of civilization.
Their purpose in doing this is to buy time for their home planet to find a way to resist this weapon.
It is a pity that from that time of contact with the Zerg to now, they have made no progress in researching the method of resisting this mysterious weapon.
And this thing has been pressing on them like a big stone.
They had thought that one day in the future, they might meet the Zerg again, and by that time, they would have mastered that method.
But what he never expected now was that when he heard about the Zerg again, it would be so close to the last time.
"Destiny lies within the cone of light." The commander of Eternal Night Civilization sighed after arriving here.
"The matter has come to this, now we can only arrange manpower to negotiate."
After giving the instructions, he looked at the departing leader and thought for a moment, then said: "By the way, you need to pay attention during the negotiation.
According to the old commander of the Taylor civilization, that civilization is now run by different factions.
Remember to tell them that we will not cooperate with them for the time being until they reach a consensus. ”
