the only savior

Chapter 888 The sole survivor of the new Apollo team

Brilliant sparks bloomed silently in front of him, embellishing the land under the starry sky.

The swarms were blown upside down, neighing continuously.

At this time, all the wild insects seemed to have received some kind of order, and began to collectively run towards the rear.

Obviously, they are planning to retreat.

Seeing this scene, Sol in the mech didn't chase after him.

Instead, another round of missiles was fired in that direction, leaving behind a number of corpses.

It's not that he doesn't want to chase.

For one thing, he still needs to save people, so it's inconvenient to chase.

Secondly, even if you chase them by yourself, you won't be able to kill many bugs.

Don't look at the miserable appearance of those bugs being bombed by their own bullets, but in fact the real casualties are very limited.

The strong physique of the worms allows them to resist high temperatures and a large amount of impact damage.

As long as it wasn't directly hit by the center of the explosion, it probably wouldn't die directly.

At the same time, the recovery ability of these guys is also amazing, and it won't take long for them to become alive again.

Even the entire swarm will evolve a mechanism that can adapt to artillery attacks the next time they meet.

And the more injured bugs there are in the swarm, the faster this evolution happens.

Therefore, if he is not sure that he can directly destroy the opponent, Sol is also unwilling to make a move, which will only speed up the evolution of the bugs.

This is also one of the reasons why the army of wild insects is so frightening.

The huge number is only part of it. What is truly terrifying is their terrifying adaptability.

"Dirty guys... One day I will kill you all..."

Sol looked at the direction where the swarm was going away, with a regretful expression on his face.

As an ancient star, he has a natural sense of hatred for these alien species that invade other people's homes, which is also related to what happened to his own homeland.

But Sol also knows that he doesn't have the strength to destroy those guys yet.

The wild insects have been timid and afraid to come forward, but they are not afraid of the guard-level mecha in his hand.

Instead, they are afraid of the owner of the [-]-meter long spear—the Holy Light Dragon Knight, Xinghan.

As one of the high-end combat forces of the Star Alliance, Xinghan is also responsible for cleaning the moon on weekdays, and she controls the number of insect swarms.

Every once in a while, Xinghan will carry out the work of mopping up the swarm here.

Even if you can't completely eliminate every bug, you can effectively control their number.

Prevent them from forming a large population and avoid the crisis that happened last time.

So, over time, the bugs also remembered the breath of this guy who hunted and killed their companions everywhere.

Once close to this spear, it will subconsciously stop.

Sol yearns for such power.

Although he himself has now become a member of the Star Alliance, he has become an awakened person.

But his strength is still far behind the opponent.

Although the mecha looks mighty.

But in the final analysis, it is just an ordinary machine without dark energy protection.

Once you encounter the flying unit of the Zerg, or encounter the opponent's long-range attack with dark energy.

Even if the armor was as hard as a metal alloy, it was useless and could not provide any protection.

That is to say, as the pilot, he can generate a certain amount of dark energy shield to help the mecha resist that kind of attack.

But in the face of overwhelming swarms of insects, it also couldn't last long.

In the final analysis, it is still the reason for its own lack of strength.

Before coming into contact with dark energy, Sol originally thought that the fighting methods of advanced civilizations were longer ranges, larger explosions, and even more advanced interference and intrusions derived from certain technical levels.

But now, after being in the Covenant for a while, he didn't know.

It turns out that higher-level civilization power does not necessarily have to be limited to firepower and strike levels.

This is a qualitative change brought about by the nature of the attack.

Without controlling the use of dark energy, no matter how hard an alloy is, it can't stop a small dark energy attack.

Bending down and carefully putting the astronaut into his palm, Thor drove the guard-level mecha to the distant moon base.

His movements were very smooth, without the slightest sense of sluggishness when manipulating large machinery.

There are countless sensing units in the mecha, which are connected with his movements and consciousness, and can easily realize his every subtle control without feeling bulky.

The guard-class mecha flew very quickly, crossing a distance of tens of kilometers in an instant, and entered the moon sub-base of the Star Alliance.

Within the range of the chaotic magnetic field formed by this shield, a corresponding dark energy core must be installed to ensure that the mecha will not be disturbed by the magnetic field and thus can operate normally.

This dark energy core is actually a spirit stone with a special formation.

It was created by Lin Sisi, the "big creator" of the Star Alliance, to enable mechanical units to work in certain chaotic magnetic field areas.

But this effect is also very limited. Currently, it can only be active within the range of the Covenant shield and the gate of hell on Rebirth Island.

Areas covered by Fog Heart and Crimson Sun are currently useless.

On the ground, after receiving the information from Saul, the staff of the medical department are already on standby.

As soon as the guard-level mech came back, he put the American astronaut in his palm on the medical bed and began to give first aid.

The Medical Department is a medical team led by Xiao Shun, and it is one of the departments within the Star Alliance.

At present, besides the Danlan Department, Canglan Department, and Wildfire Department, the Medical Department, Research Department, and Containment Department are expected to become the new core departments.

At that time, the original three major divisions in the Star Alliance will be officially confirmed as six major divisions.

These construction tasks have been handled by Su Changqing, the supervisor of the Star Alliance.

At this time, in the medical room of the moon base, several medical staff wearing white Covenant uniforms took off the masks on their faces and sent Tony out of the emergency room.

"His problem is more serious than imagined. Although he was unconscious due to lack of oxygen and low temperature, he is also accompanied by symptoms of pressure loss in the body. Some internal organs have been permanently damaged. I am afraid that even the use of recovery techniques cannot To ensure his recovery, other treatment plans must be implemented..."

The attending doctor was a young and beautiful woman.

She was one of the earliest veterans who founded the medical department with Xiao Shun, and she is also a senior medical staff in the medical department.

"This...well...but I still need to trouble you to try your best to save him. Ye Yunxiu said that he can't die yet..."

"Don't worry, we will do our best to treat every patient."

The girl nodded seriously, her expression full of convincing charm.

"Okay, thanks for your hard work, Li Li. I'll go back first. If you need anything, please feel free to contact me through the star network terminal."

Sol pointed to his watch, and his words revealed a tone that was very familiar with the other party.

Although he is an ancient star, his appearance is almost the same as that of the water blue star.

Pretty much the same except the ears are a bit longer.

In addition, the living environment of the two parties is highly similar, so he and his lover Niumei quickly integrated into this place and got along very well with everyone.

Of course, the reason why he was more familiar with Li Li.

It's also because when I first came here, I was often drawn by the other party's blood, and I got to know each other after coming and going.

Now, after completing the rescue mission, he temporarily put the person in the medical department, and he returned to report to Ye Yunxiu.

As the supervisor of the Star Alliance, it is naturally impossible for Su Zhangqing to do everything by himself.

He also needs some think tank helpers, and Ye Yunxiu from Longmian Mountain is one of them.

On weekdays, the execution plan and operation direction of many organizations are also carried out by this former "King of Counting".

The most well-known "spokesperson program" is one of them.

……

Ten hours later, the current moon is already at night when the sun cannot be seen.

Because there is no atmosphere, people living on the moon base should not feel the change of dusk and dawn.

It's just that the existence of the shield simulates the gradual change of the sky color, so that people can see from the inside that the sky outside is still the same blue sky and night, just like when they were on the water blue star.

The only difference is that the nights and days here are extraordinarily long.

Usually after nightfall, it takes fifteen days for everyone to see the next sunrise.

Medical Department, Ward 2044.

Tony struggled to open his eyes, feeling a headache from the coma caused by lack of oxygen.

In front of his eyes, a gentle white light shone on his body, which slightly relieved the pain.

"Well……"

Tony rubbed his temples with his hands, and it took a long time for him to feel better, and the hangover-like feeling gradually disappeared.

"where is this place……"

He raised his hand in a daze, with the instrument used to monitor the heartbeat between his fingers, and the unique "didi" sound of medical equipment came from his ears.

Seeing the white light above his head in a trance, Tony was still a little confused in his brain.

Immediately afterwards, as the consciousness became clear, the scenes of what happened to the body before came into the mind.

The beautiful moon, the destroyed Apollo, the terrifying alien creatures, the companions who died tragically before their eyes, the lonely trip to the moon, and the huge mech I saw before I fell into a coma...

With the memory returning, Tony's pupils continued to dilate, and a look of disbelief gradually appeared in his eyes.

"I, I didn't die!?"

He sat up suddenly, his eyes widened, and there was endless surprise in his eyes.

"How could this be, I obviously already..."

Thinking of the desperation he had experienced before, Tony couldn't help showing a painful expression on his face.

Then look at the surrounding environment.

Medical beds, incandescent lights, heartbeat monitors...

This is clearly in a medical room!

At this moment, countless guesses flashed through Tony's mind.

In the end, all thoughts focused on the giant mech he saw last.

If there is anything else that can save him in that situation, it is probably only the mysterious mecha.

"Could it be... I was saved by aliens...?"

He thought of this and shook his head again.

Judging from the layout of the surrounding rooms, it doesn't look like it's on an alien spaceship, but it's more like returning to the medical center on the water blue planet.

"Drip, drip, drip..."

On the side, the heartbeat monitor was still beating gently.

There was only this slight sound in the quiet room, which calmed his nervousness a lot.

With some difficulty, he moved his legs off the bed, Tony took off the monitoring equipment on his body, and planned to get off the bed.

However, he hadn't fully recovered from the previous loss of pressure and low temperature in his body, so he fell to the ground.

"Zi la..."

There was a slight movement, the door was opened, and a figure in a clean white uniform walked over.

"You're awake, don't move around, your injury hasn't healed yet, and you can't get out of bed yet, I'll help you lie down first."

It was a beautiful female doctor who spoke.

After seeing Tony lying on the ground, she walked straight over with a concerned look on her face.

Tony would have liked to have struggled to his feet.

In the end, he only felt a huge but gentle force lift him up, and put him back on the hospital bed.

This scene made him a little dazed.

The soft and weak girl in front of him actually pulled herself up easily in such a way, which was a bit beyond his expectation.

"Although you are only comatose due to suffocation, your body has been active in the space environment for too long without the protection of the pressure bag, resulting in a loss of pressure inside the body, causing a large number of internal organ damage, bleeding, and permanent damage. It's a miracle to come down..."

The female doctor reinserted the connector of the instrument back on Tony, and said:
"So now that you've managed to wake up, you must not move around, let alone take off the restoration device casually. Otherwise, once the permanently damaged part becomes ill again, even we will not be able to save you."

Her technique is proficient, and all the joints have been pasted back in words.

"This, isn't this monitoring the heartbeat...?"

Tony was still a little dazed at this time, and subconsciously followed the other party's topic.

When the woman heard this, a smile appeared on her face.

"Of course not. This is a repair instrument developed by the latest technology. It is used to treat your injuries. You can't take it off again."

Her smile was very friendly, and her gentleness revealed a feeling of reassurance, which made Tony's nervous mood calm down unconsciously.

The woman was Li Li, and she was the one who rescued the astronaut from death this time.

"Thank you, thank you... But I can ask, where am I right now... Who are you and why did you save me...?"

Tony looked a little nervous.

After deliberating for a long time, he opened his mouth to ask the doubts that had been haunting his heart since he woke up.

For his question, the woman naturally had expected it.

"You can just call me Mo Li. I'm your attending doctor. As for where you are now...of course you're still on the moon, so don't think about running away for now."
