Chapter 1222 The Darkest Hour (13)

west Pacific.

The attacks from the Stargate fighters and the Chosen continued throughout the night.

A hairy white light lit up between the distant sea and sky, as if a gap had been opened on the stage in the dark.The invisible clouds at night hang low in the sky in the floating light, like the white boundary between the sea and the sky.

The roar of the engine floated in the sea breeze, and the dense black spots stirred the cotton-like clouds like mosquitoes and flies.They are moving fast, and occasionally white, purple, blue, and red lasers will pierce the clouds and quickly fall into the rippling sea.Occasionally, missiles with trails would fall towards the fleet traveling on the distant sea.

When the missile crosses the night sky, there will be flames shining above the ship, smashing the missile into mid-air.Occasionally, a missile would break out of lock, like a fish slipping through the net and go straight to the giant ship cutting through the waves.At this time, the Chosen One with the light shield on greeted the missile, and used his skills and body to destroy the missile or drag it into the sea.

Blindly defending is not a good strategy. Taijilong sent the most mobile team to attack the electronic warfare aircraft of Stargate.In a large-scale war, the elimination of enemy fighter planes takes precedence over carriers, and electronic warfare planes take precedence over fighter planes. This is an iron rule.

Electronic warfare aircraft can not only blind the "eyes" of the enemy, but also the "eyes" of one's own side, and its important role is self-evident.Therefore, the attack on the enemy's electronic warfare aircraft and the protection of one's own electronic warfare aircraft are the highlight of the fleet.

As the chosen one with the highest maneuverability and the strongest concealment, Bai Xiuxiu naturally took on the arduous task of destroying electronic warfare aircraft.Besides her, Tai Chi Dragon doesn't have too many Chosen Ones who can shoulder such a heavy burden.The other Tai Chi dragon candidates would take turns to rest every three hours, but Bai Xiuxiu couldn't do it. She had to fight for six hours with high intensity before only the chosen ones could go into battle.

At this time, she had been fighting for nearly six hours. After using the "space-time rift" to get rid of the tracking of the two Stargate Chosen Carriers, she received a signal from Nuwa and found the Stargate's Electronic Warfare Growler Squadron. To avoid being detected by radar, she flew close to the sea surface, the waves rolled under her body, and the faint morning light cast a swan-like reflection on the sea surface for her.The water splash that splashed into the air just rose up and seemed about to engulf her, but was split into two by the high-speed airflow, like a fountain that was forcibly divided.

"After ten seconds, I will be blocked, please fight on your own."

Nuwa's icy voice sounded from the combat helmet, and at the same time, the screen showed the location where the enemy electronic warfare aircraft Growler was about to arrive.

Bai Xiuxiu folded the wide wings, stopped and flipped in the air, and at the same time as the scissors on the back, the ion jet engine on the soles of the feet burst out almost transparent blue light instantly, blowing out a vortex on the sea surface.She shot straight into the sky like a rocket, and during Nuwa's countdown, she took a final look at the growler's position displayed on the screen.Through the clouds, she still couldn't observe with the naked eye, she had to rely on the instructions of the combat helmet, and then calculated and flew diagonally upwards.Long-distance ray skills without math skills are difficult to hit high-speed moving targets. You must approach the enemy plane with lightning speed to have a chance to destroy it.

But without radar support in this kind of battle, a slight loss will lead to thousands of miles.Bai Xiuxiu pulled the speed to the limit. When she entered the cloud layer, she broke through a small hole, then she turned sharply, entered the "space-time rift" and flew quickly against the sea of ​​clouds for a certain distance to observe the position of the enemy plane. When she saw the painted star gate When the Growler was identified, she made a cobra maneuver, bringing up a cloud of mist and heading straight for the belly of the enemy plane.

The unsuspecting growler was instantly blown into powder by the "neutron light", and the flames splashed, and the huge fireball burned a hole in the thick cloud layer.

The two nearby Howlers pulled up rapidly, and the escorting wingman found Bai Xiuxiu who had been exposed because of the release of skills. The F35 fighter jet shot out several chains of fire, and the dark blue sky was cut into countless pieces by the fire.At the same time, the Chosen One of the Star Gate also chased up in a straight line through the thick clouds, and in an instant, the sea of ​​clouds that looked like snow became riddled with holes, like a snow-white wall with countless small holes punched by bullets.

The other five Tai Chi Dragon Chosen who cooperated with Bai Xiuxiu in the battle also gathered, and the sky that was calm just now suddenly became chaotic.High-speed close-quarters combat against each other is adrenaline-pumping.Bullets, missiles, and the long-range skills of the Chosen One scurry in the dark blue sky.In the melee, the "space-time rift" skill can exert its greatest advantage. As long as the Stargate's early warning aircraft is not nearby, Bai Xiuxiu is invincible.

Under the cover of her teammates, she gave up her defense, pushed the ion jet engine to break through the sound barrier several times in the sky, and caught up with another Growler. This time she didn't use the "neutron light" that needs to be charged. skills, but directly teleported to the opponent's cockpit cover.

The Howler, who was flying at high speed, shook slightly, and found that the transparent canopy was no longer transparent. The two pilots looked up at the same time, but only saw a curvaceous woman covered in white armor in the faint moonlight. Flying over their heads like a bird, one person pressed the ejection immediately, but it was still a little slower.Two beams of fire that symbolized death melted through the canopy made of fiberglass reinforced plastic, and exploded their heads, like hammered watermelons, and blood spattered and stained the cockpit.The Howler, which was traveling at a speed of Mach [-], stalled instantly and fell towards the clouds.The ejected headless pilot opened his parachute in mid-air.

Before the howler entered the spin state, Bai Xiuxiu jumped up lightly, entered the "space-time rift" state again, and disappeared in the moonlight that was about to disappear.

After losing two Growlers, Nuwa's link was restored for a short time, and the monitor jumped out the light spots of the other three Growlers.The distance is three kilometers away, whether it is far or not, the energy consumption of using the "space-time rift" is too high, and if it is not used, it will take too much time to descend to the sea to get rid of the enemy's pursuit.

There are not many chances of catching the Stargate electronic warfare aircraft, Bai Xiuxiu made a decisive decision, "Kong Li, you and He Xianda cover me."

A noisy reply came from the earphones, which was disturbed by radio waves, "Yes! Instructor Bai."

Two mobile blue cyborgs that looked like Iron Man rushed forward with a red arc. They opened their energy shields to block the wingman's chain of fire, and fought with the carrier of the star gate. Bai Xiuxiu created the time to escape.

Bai Xiuxiu briefly used the "space-time rift" skill, left the battle circle, and immediately rushed towards the nearest howler.

The sound in the earphones was intermittent, and Bai Xiuxiu, who was flying alone in the air, was like a stray white gull.

The sun slowly rose from the skyline, and she locked on to a "Growler" flying above the clouds again, entering the "space-time rift" state, approaching silently at high speed, and the energy consumption soared to the peak.

"Teleport", followed by shooting, and blood burst in the cockpit.

There is no beauty in war, and Bai Xiuxiu is not excited at all. She knows that endless killings are waiting for her ahead.

At daybreak, the White Gull combat team destroyed eight Growlers at the Stargate one after another, approaching a reorganization, and the enemy planes began to retreat.Bai Xiuxiu, whose energy was about to bottom out, had no way to pursue it, and immediately returned to the sky above the fleet.

Without the support of electronic warfare aircraft, the Stargate's Chosen and fighter formations were preparing to retreat, and they fled immediately after dumping their last ammunition.Dozens of air-to-surface missiles and laser-guided bombs, mixed with countless skills, galloped towards the 055E destroyer in the middle of the camp.There were still flames on that destroyer that hadn't been extinguished, like a bloody flag fluttering in the sea wind.

The chosen ones of Tai Chi Dragon tried their best to defend the destroyer that had lost its combat capability, but they still missed two missiles. One dropped into the sea not far from the starboard side of the iron-gray destroyer, causing huge waves. In the middle of the naval gun, the nearly [-]-ton naval gun was blown away in the shaking.

Seeing that the naval gun was about to hit the ship island, Bai Xiuxiu, who had just arrived, pulled out a ray of light in the morning light, and hugged the rotating thick gun barrel with both hands. She tried her best to follow the naval gun around twice, With a loud shout, the white wings danced like hummingbirds in the air, and she tried to throw the naval gun towards the sea surface along with the inertia.But the naval gun was too heavy, and the castration was too fierce. She tried her best, but she was still a little late.

The thick base of the naval gun just passed the cockpit, and the piercing sound of gold and iron clanging overwhelmed the sound of the explosion. Sparks flew from the ship island, and the huge body of the [-]-ton displacement ship was smashed to the side. It was almost thirty degrees.When the cannon base completely scratched the cab and flew towards the sea, it returned to normal amidst the splashing water.

When Bai Xiuxiu threw out the nearly [-]-ton naval gun, she was also thrown into the cab by inertia like a bullet. In the flying glass shards, she first bounced on the bridge with the sun behind her back, and then slammed into the bridge. It smashed hard on the wall full of electrical boxes, and smashed a dent in the steel-cast wall.

The ceiling of the cab was collapsing amid the harsh sound of tearing, and the huge cab was deformed in the violent collision, like a box that was about to be pinched and deformed, as if the entire destroyer would disintegrate.Bai Xiuxiu felt her back was burning, and when the sea breeze blew in, the burning sensation was dissipating.

At this moment, her combat helmet was completely shattered, and the warning sounds of "low energy" and "damage exceeded" kept echoing in her brain.She stood up reluctantly, feeling sticky in her hands, and looked down from the broken helmet. Her hands were full of bright red blood, and the floor was full of stumps and broken arms. Blood sprayed in all directions, distorted. The deformed gray walls are covered with lumps of flesh, like a murder scene with dismembered corpses. What's worse is that the air is filled with an unpleasant smell of blood and burnt, which is suffocating.

Bai Xiuxiu has never seen such a tragic scene. Whether it is a missile directly hitting the ship island or a powerful skill hitting the ship island, there will be no disgusting or frightening scenes, they are just a ball of flames.The number of people who died in this scene may not be as many as those in the explosion, but the sensory stimulation is a thousand times stronger.

Her body was trembling, the voice in the earphones became distant and blurred, her field of vision seemed to be occupied by blood mist, everything she saw seemed to be covered with a blood-colored veil, and the tinnitus of "hum, hum, hum" also It kept echoing in her brain, and the piercing sound stimulated her eardrums intermittently.

"Instructor Bai, Instructor Bai. Are you okay?"

Bai Xiuxiu came back to her senses and saw Kong Li flashing in. Just as she was about to answer that she was okay, she saw Kong Li staring at her shoulder and made a gesture of vomiting. The carrier couldn't vomit, it was purely a psychological reaction.She turned her head to look at her shoulder, and an eyeball that was about to explode was stuck to the gap in her armor like cotton candy.
"Thank you, Instructor Bai."

"Thank you, Instructor Bai."

Bai Xiuxiu nodded and smiled as if nothing had happened, and she said confidently to the Tai Chi Dragon team members who were changing shifts: "I shot down 23 fighter planes today, and I can put an asterisk on my shoulder again. You have to work hard!" what!"

"Yes, Instructor Bai"

She walked out of the safety cabin and walked through the busy hangar. The staff in overalls were overhauling the fighter plane, and various voices were both far and near to her.She smiled at everyone until she reached the gangway leading to the lounge, and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.She grabbed the handrail and walked up, every step weighed heavily.

Just when she was about to go back to the waiting room to take a good rest, she received an order from General Chen Kang to go to the war room.The high-intensity battle exhausted her energy and energy, so she rushed to the war room, where there were only general Chen Kang, fleet commander Li Yuankai, and three senior combat staff officers.Five people were surrounding the three-dimensional map, standing silently in the cloudy air under the incandescent lamp.

Bai Xiuxiu closed the heavy hatch, and General Chen Kang said, "Today you opened the gap in the shielding net of the star gate, and our drone received an encrypted command from the headquarters."

"What notice?"

Li Yuankai pointed to the three-dimensional map with a serious expression and said: "The command headquarters said that on Christmas, all channels will be blocked in the Northwest and Northeast Pacific regions. Let us now move towards the Qiandao Islands, and we must rush to the vicinity of Emperor Haishan before Christmas. .”

Bai Xiuxiu was full of surprise, "Are you going in the direction of the Bering Strait?"

Chen Kang nodded and said, "Yes."

"Now we have to find a way to destroy the Stargate's early warning aircraft, so that they can't lock our position, so we can turn around and get rid of tracking." Li Yuankai said in a deep voice.

"But we haven't even figured out the location of the opponent's fleet yet," Bai Xiuxiu said.

Chen Kang was silent for a while, and said in a low voice: "We have planned a dangerous plan, and we need you to carry it out. Only you can complete this task, Comrade Bai Xiuxiu."

After the battle meeting, she didn't know how long she walked, maybe a few minutes or ten minutes, before she returned to the lounge. Without delay, she rushed into the bathroom and retched while holding the sink.While vomiting, she looked up and saw her pale face in the mirror, remembering that the battles that Europa had experienced at that time were already tragic enough, but compared to real wars, those were just pediatrics.

"Chosen ones like myself don't die so easily, but ordinary people die too easily."

After washing her face, Bai Xiuxiu returned to the room. She lay down on the bed, sat up nervously, looked at her hands, and did not see any blood, so she lay down again and closed her eyes.

For people on the aircraft carrier, the harassing attacks have little impact, at least it is difficult to hear the continuous explosion sound from the senses.Just like last night, there were only a few thunderous explosions, and the grand flames would occasionally illuminate the night outside the porthole, but as long as the siren didn't sound, it meant that the battle situation had not yet reached the most dangerous moment.

However, this does not mean that the fleet is safe. Bai Xiuxiu knows that every explosion that wakes her up, and the flames that light up the sky mean that the escorting ships have been hit, soldiers are dying, or the plane is crashing.For a war, it is just a series of numbers. For many people, it is the end of life.Their journeys that were never supposed to end came to a halt in the Pacific Ocean, turning into dark obituaries for loved ones and gravestones that may not be remembered.

Bai Xiuxiu opened her eyes again. She didn't dare to close her eyes. As soon as she closed her eyes, the broken limbs and the eyeball that filled the cab would appear in front of her eyes.She knew that she should force herself to sleep to ensure that she had enough energy to deal with the decisive battle that might come at any time, but there would be explosions in her ears from time to time. She looked out the window and there was no sign of fighting. Auditory hallucinations, the string in the brain cannot relax.Every time the screen vibrates to send a message, she can't help but worry about the damage to the fleet. Sometimes she even wonders if the Stargate's general attack has arrived, and General Chen Kang has chosen to surrender.

This made her fall into a terrible nightmare even if she fell into a short sleep, as if she got up and saw that the flag on the ship island had been replaced with a white flag.She was the only one left in the whole world who was stubbornly resisting, and she had no choice but to kill herself by swallowing a gun.

While tossing and turning, she straightened up from the cold and hard bed, feeling as if she had just been fished out of the water, covered in sweat. She picked up her phone and checked the time. It was 06:30 am Hawaii time, [-]:[-] away from her. After returning at [-], it was only over an hour, but she felt that it had been a long time.

Time has become extremely difficult.

Unable to fall asleep and unable to do other things, she unlocked the phone, and the portrait Cheng Mo drew for her popped out again.

The burnt traces at the corners and the oil paint blurred by water droplets give this painting a strange beauty.Bai Xiuxiu raised her hand to touch the screen, but unfortunately it didn't have the rough texture of oil painting.

Everything is smooth as a mirror.

She saw her beautiful face imprinted together with the hazy and mysterious face on the oil painting, and her focal length seemed to become vaguely blurred.

In the chaotic desolation, she seemed to be able to see clearly the background blurred by the water, but she had never figured out what the gray color block that looked like dirt expressed.

At this moment, she finally understood that what Cheng Mo painted was the terracotta warriors.

The inexplicable Bai Xiuxiu felt a bit of warmth in this dark, filthy and profound color.She recalled the bits and pieces she had experienced with Cheng Mo, and found that she had accumulated much more than her dead husband.

Now that her years are likely to be coming to an end, she suddenly realizes that what impressed her the most was the unscrupulous rhetoric that Cheng Mo said to her in a mass-market KTV in Chang'an when she was young.

But she realized with some dismay that although her life seemed glamorous, she was not happy at all.However, to say that she is unfortunate is a bit hypocritical.During the years of her husband's death, she has been obsessed day and night in the battle of revenge. There is not a single day when she is not planning, working hard, and restraining herself. Although the hope is so slim and the road is so difficult, she Never wanted to give up.

Looking back at this moment, it seems that she just hid in meaningless fatigue, let herself wait for everything in the past to pass slowly in the powerless struggle, maybe one day she will wake up and forget the hatred.

The strange thing is that today, she has not been able to let go of her hatred, but instead, this hatred has become the coordinates of her life voyage.She is unswervingly moving towards this goal, but she seems to have forgotten her original intention, and has unknowingly let go of her thoughts about her dead husband, just to fulfill her promise so that she can have an explanation for her dead husband.

Bai Xiuxiu couldn't believe that she would have such a rebellious thought. She put down her mobile phone, turned it on the bed, and closed her eyes, but the boy's cold and stubborn expression still appeared in her mind.

Caught off guard, she found that when her life was about to reach the end, what she thought about the most was the ridiculous boy who was sometimes childish and sometimes mature.
"You are really crazy, Bai Xiuxiu."

She whispered to herself, she felt restless and restless.

"Take a shower and calm down," she said to herself.

Bai Xiuxiu took off her pajamas and walked into the bathroom. She saw her real face again in the mirror. Perhaps it was someone who made her get rid of her fear. Her face was not as pale as it was at the beginning, and there was even a faint blush .She looked at herself, sure that she still maintained her youth, but when she thought of Athena's otherworldly face, she lost some confidence enough to turn all living beings upside down.

"He is married now, not only married, but also has an unclear ex-wife, and even his daughter is three years old. Even his own teacher has been attacked, and he is a full-fledged Neptune, is it okay? There is Xiaomei?"

Bai Xiuxiu closed her eyes and covered her cheeks.

"What the hell are you thinking about?"

She turned around and walked into the shower room, turned on the shower head, and let the cold water pour from head to toe. The water wet her hair and soaked her skin. She remembered the misty Seine River, when The Eiffel Tower hadn't fallen, she hadn't felt her feelings then, and she had just kissed him with self-righteous pity.

It was strange that she had never regretted this impulsive act, but now she regretted not being able to drop everything and accompany him back to Paris
She thought that life should be like this, until the end, no one knows who left whose banquet.

————————————————————————

When Cheng Mo and his party arrived in Athens, it was already twelve noon on December 2024, 12, Beijing time.

As soon as the cabin door of the Dassault Falcon 7X was opened, when Cheng Mo and Athena walked out of the cabin door, a crowd of people knelt down in the private airport immediately. Ayala, who was wearing a black combat uniform, led the order and shouted: "See Lord Barrett!"

Standing beside Ayala, the red-haired girl Xishi waved at Cheng Mo with a wide smile, and also shouted: "My lord, your sexy female secretary is already cleansed!"

The orderly and majestic shouts echoed over the empty airfield, startling the flock of crows in the distant woods.

Athena is used to this, and Cheng Mo is not surprised, but just rolled his eyes at Xi Shi.

Guan Bojun and the others who came out from behind were taken aback.Seeing hundreds of fully armed Hydra warriors wearing exoskeletons, Guan Bojun standing on the gangway was shocked for a whole year, "They are all here to welcome us? Is it such a big scene? This is too serious! Shouldn't there be some kids waving flowers and shouting 'welcome welcome warm welcome'?"

"And get some kids." Gu Feifei was speechless, "Please take a look at the Hydra trident logo on their shoulders, please! They are a notorious organization in the world!"

Guan Bojun lowered his voice and said: "What does Marvel's super villain 'Hydra' have to do with this 'Hydra'?"

Du Leng whispered: "It is said that they are the prototype."

Guan Bojun covered his mouth in astonishment, "Then isn't this Hydra very awesome? Couldn't Athena be Lady Hydra?"

"I don't know the identity of Athena, I only know that Lady Hydra played by Lisvetlana Kudchenkova in "The Wolverine III" is super beautiful!" Fu Yuanzhuo said, "But it is still worse than Athena Far"

"So Cheng Mo is really lucky!" Seeing the pretty-looking Ayala kneeling at the feet of Cheng Mo and Athena, and the tall and sexy redhead holding Cheng Mo's arm, Guan Bojun shook his head and sighed, "Everyone is licking dogs, why is he the only one who can get shit luck? Is it because we don't lick enough and not hard enough?"

Gu Feifei whispered: "No matter how much you lick and how diligent you are, you're still just a sea dog. Cheng Mo is a serious Neptune with a trident!"

The crowd laughed lightly.

Fu Yuanzhuo gave a thumbs up, "This is awesome!"

Guan Bojun said with a depressed face: "Are the Onassis family amazing? Besides, Cheng Mo is not just a son-in-law."

"There was Xie Minyun in the front, and Athena in the back. Even if he is a son-in-law, he is also the strongest son-in-law in history." Fu Yuanzhuo said.

----------------------

Ayala personally drove for Cheng Mo and Athena, and the convoy of hundreds of people galloped towards the direction of the Aegean Sea.

This tourist city is singing and dancing, as if it was not affected by the nuclear bomb not long ago, and it is completely unaware of the ongoing war in the Pacific Ocean.

Cheng Mo, who was sitting in the back seat, asked in a low voice: "How is the matter that Xishi, I want you and Ayala to arrange?"

Xi Shi turned his head and looked at Cheng Mo, "Boss, don't you feel relieved about my work? The fifth demon, Marbus, will arrive at Ely Manor tonight. With you and Lord Beret in charge, the plan is safe."
