I Really Didn’t Want to Be the Savior Chapter 379: The 0-footed worm is dead but not stiff
Although all the compound eyes have been killed, the busyness of the battlefield has never stopped.
Engineering ships and medical ships shuttled around to clean the battlefield, including rescuing the wounded, storing bodies, and repairing equipment.
There are also many professional soldiers who carefully drive fighter planes and small warships close to the wreckage of the ball ship, and use the barrage cannon to neutralize and eliminate the physical toxins that continue to float from the prismatic area.
The scene looks quiet and busy.
The war is finally over. Most of the time, there is a lingering joy on people's faces, but they can't hide their sadness when they find the broken bodies of their comrades in the twisted metal.
A large medical ship was docked beside the commander ship. In the medical room, Chen Feng and Tang Tianxin were lying side by side in two multifunctional treatment cabins.
Chen Feng's skin was cracked, and the blood that rushed out dyed the nutrient solution in the treatment cabin pink.
He didn't complete the treatment just now, and the pressure on the body to control the star-front colossus was enormous, and he rushed to the front of the spherical battleship, completing a series of extremely high-risk operations.
The aftermath of the two shocks he received when he used his neutron shield and battle armor to withstand the ball-shaped battleship was enough for him to drink a pot.
Later, when he left the back armor in place, and controlled the huge star-front colossus to move and escape, the curvature-like membrane structure layer on the colossus' feet and the surface of the ball ship swelled violently, causing even more terrifying shocks. If it falls apart, he not only has a high awakening degree, but also has a recovery factor to support it.
The Colossus' armor has suffered significant damage.
At this time, his star colossus and galactic battle armor are next to the medical ship, and are being quickly repaired inside and out by dozens of large engineering ships.
Chen Feng himself was even more shocked.
Before, he kept a sigh of relief in his heart. As long as he wasn't dead and could still move, he didn't bother to care.
Now that the war has come to an end, as soon as he relaxes, he rushes back to receive treatment with blood all over his body.
Tang Tianxin is no better than him.
It's just that the injuries between the two are slightly different. Chen Feng's injury is on his body, and Tang Tianxin's injury is in his brain.
In this super-large-scale battle that lasted just half an hour, her brain had to maintain a very high-intensity operation at all times. Not only did she have to control the overall situation, but in many cases, it had to be specific to the regional battlefield, or even a certain area. some special warfare individuals.
In order to minimize casualties, she repeatedly used subtle radiation to stimulate her brain to improve her battlefield judgment intuition and brain wave transmission efficiency. Up to now, she is still accumulating dark wounds, her face is gray, and she is dying.
But it was not the physical torture that caused her the most pain, but the uncontrollable guilt that arose in her heart at the moment when the war ended.
If her heart were like a real heart, the guilt was the black vines planted on it.
As the reports of battle damage and deaths were sent to her, the black vines quickly took root and sprouted and grew on her heart. .
Every time the roots go down, it will bring a burst of tearing pain, so just now when she and Chen Feng said the three words "finished" together, the tone of voice was very different.
For a moment, she wanted to kill herself by drawing a gun, but she wanted to see Chen Feng again, and she was still thinking about her daughter, so she barely managed to survive.
Now, when Chen Feng also lay down in the treatment cabin next to him, the heart-piercing torture was slightly relieved by a trivial amount.
In the beginning, Chen Feng didn't realize the change in her mentality. After all, in the previous timeline, she might have stronger willpower than Chen Feng himself.
Chen Feng first chatted with her very casually, and shared the information he had just found in the compound eye's bedroom array, and then concluded: "In the past, we didn't know anything about compound eye civilization, and other people's warships used the curvature mode in the air. Turning around can make me feel the pressure from fear to nausea and nausea."
"We were tossed around by The Outer Songs again. Soldiers died inexplicably from quantum entanglement before they got close, and I felt like I was watching a supernatural horror movie. Especially compound eyes. I can't describe to you how I felt when the attacker dropped particle bombs in the air. The scene was grand and terrifying, and my hands and feet were numb with trembling."
"But now, I want to understand. Humans' thinking ability is actually very strong. When the human brain reacts instinctively to fear of unknown things, there is actually another psychological change. That is the desire for knowledge. Fear Its essence is not to turn us into frightened hamsters, but to ignite our curiosity.”
"The more we are afraid of something, the more curious we are, the more we want to explore the hidden truth behind it. Just like the audience of a magician, even if they know that revealing magic secrets will make the performance less fun, they still want to know this. Why?"
"After I understand why, whether it is curiosity or fear, it will eventually become dull, and I feel that it is nothing more than that. Compound-eyed people are now in my eyes, and they were killed by Z bacteria in the mass extinction in the 26th century. The infected animals made no difference."
"Maybe the compound-eyed person is just a giant wasp in an Earth-like planet that has been infected by Z bacteria and reproduced from a single unit? It's just that they were born early, and the universe gave them enough time. "
His tone was relaxed.
Tang Tianxin nodded sullenly, "I just read the analysis report of the Science Executive Committee, and the probability you said is more than 50%."
Chen Feng tilted his head, his eyes passed through the transparent cover of the two-layer treatment cabin, and landed on her side face.
Just now, she had been turning her back to herself and didn't let herself see the front face. Now that she saw the side face, she realized that something was wrong.
An hour ago, she was in high spirits, her brows were bright with hope, her eyes were firm, and she showed the strong confidence of a high-ranking decision maker.
In just an hour, her cheekbones were protruding and her eyes were sunken.
Most importantly, her eyes lost the sharpness of the past.
"How about Ou Qinglan? Just now I saw that the space station of the research center is very close, and it has already entered the range of the enemy ship."
Tang Tianxin shook his head, "She is fine, she is lucky, the space station retreated in time after collecting the data."
But she immediately said: "But there were still some accidental casualties. Dr. Dong Shan suffered an accidental explosion while analyzing the blade arm fragment of the blade beetle and died."
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, the old man's disrespectful appearance subconsciously appeared in his mind, and he remembered the impassioned "cosmos memory theory" of the old man in the last moment of the previous timeline.
This time I obviously won, but I never thought that the old man didn't even have a chance to say his last words.
If you didn't ask, the old man would probably have quietly left without a sound.
I don't know how many people sacrificed.
Chen Feng finally remembered to look at the death situation, and then he stopped breathing.
At this time, there are not one of the eight regular military theaters.
The casualty rate of the reserve army also exceeded 70 percent.
The total number of casualties was 29.6 billion.
Not one, not 10,000, but 100 million.
Of the 41 billion combatants, only 11.4 billion remained after the war.
Chen Feng had previously guessed that the death situation would be serious, but when the statistics actually appeared in front of him, it still shocked him.
He woke up in horror and suddenly understood Tang Tianxin's mood.
I keep losing my comrades in the timeline again and again, and my feelings gradually become numb.
Because I never hoped to win, I firmly anesthetize myself and always believe that I can meet these comrades in the future, so when I see these people sacrifice, I instantly withdraw from my sadness and devote myself to the next battle non-stop. , forget sadness.
When he firmly believed that he would meet again in the future, he had lost the instinct to look back at the people behind him who were pushing him forward.
I... I've become so cold-blooded.
"Alas!"
Chen Feng also sighed, not only for the dead, but also for himself.
He knows it's not good, but it's easier said than done, and it's hard to change.
Tang Tianxin raised her hand with difficulty, rubbed her eyes, and apologized, "I'm sorry, I should have been happy."
Chen Feng was speechless, she actually formed a self-blame personality?
He smiled wryly and shook his head, "You don't need to apologize."
After thinking about it, he added: "You don't need to apologize to others, you have done nothing wrong, you have fulfilled your responsibility as a commander-in-chief perfectly."
Tang Tianxin knew he had seen through, "But I should have done better. It's just two hours, it's just a war... alas..."
"We are not the ones who started the war. Our technological level is too far behind. It is good to win. There is no need to be perfect."
"But it's me who gave the order." Tang Tianxin smiled reluctantly, "Actually, I have learned all these things at the level of psychological enlightenment. I wasn't very sentimental, but the number of people killed in battle was too many. There are too many."
Chen Feng was silent for a long time.
He recalls a traumatic disorder called Post-War Psychological Syndrome, a type of PTSD.
Many wartime heroes who slaughtered and killed without blinking were unable to escape, and were still tormented many years after they were discharged from the military.
Higher rates at the senior commander level.
Tang Tianxin's stress response came very quickly, a bit faster than Chen Feng's imagination, which may have something to do with her overuse of her brain, and it has something to do with the terrifying number of casualties.
In the future, if human beings set foot in the universe and become a huge race across the galaxy, when they participate in a larger-scale civil war, perhaps human beings can slowly adapt to this scale of sacrifices that can cost hundreds of millions at every turn.
But it's too early.
Although the footprints of human beings have spread all over the solar system, they have not gone out for a day, and they have never left the category of people on earth.
This is the first time humans have participated in a cosmic war, and Tang Tianxin is the first true cosmic war-level commander.
She can hardly find the experience of her predecessors to learn from, and she has not experienced the universe civilization-level worldview that has been gradually formed after hundreds of thousands of years of nurture.
She has actually achieved the ultimate strength that an earthling can do.
Chen Feng is an outlier. His life experience of jumping out of the thinking dilemma does not come from the expansion of space, but from the deepening of time.
He has, others don't.
This is not a feeling that can be obtained simply by reading his memory video, no matter how immersive it is, it is not deep enough.
For the mother of the child in this timeline, it is impossible for the sacrificed person to come back again.
Tang Tianxin asked again: "You say, am I being ashamed?"
Chen Feng shook his head, "Actually, it's okay, you haven't shown this side in front of others. I bet that even if you return to your post to direct the next war, there will be no problem at all."
"Well, of course." Tang Tianxin nodded.
"It's not yet time to relax, the sun dome is still there, cheer up."
"Okay, let's play chess when we wake up."
"No problem."
Both of them fell asleep.
In the state of sleep, the body and brain recover the fastest, and this has been the case since ancient times.
About eight hours later, Chen Feng was awakened by "people" in a daze.
He barely opened his eyes, his eyelids were heavy, like two shot puts.
This is the result of the quick recovery potion he used earlier and the forced overdraft without being cured.
The medical staff didn't joke with him. According to conventional wisdom, if he wants to fully recover now, he will have to go through a rest period of at least several months.
A new body is useless, and a brain cannot be replaced, and intracranial hemorrhage is just as deadly.
However, Chen Feng has a recovery factor in his body, the recovery speed is much faster than that of ordinary people, and his tolerance is also much stronger. At present, it seems that he will sleep again, and he will be able to recover almost 70% by noon tomorrow.
The one who woke him was Fanxing.
"Don't sleep, I have something to tell you."
Chen Feng still wanted to sleep, didn't move, didn't bother to say anything, just answered in his heart, "What's the matter?"
Fanxing's next sentence scare his drowsiness away on the spot.
"In that prismatic area, the compound-eye's quantum intelligence center cannot be opened or closed by the engineers. The confrontation between me and the compound-eye's quantum intelligence has never stopped, and it has continued to this day. Now it is necessary to A decision has been made."
Chen Feng quickly asked, "How is the situation?"
"It is not ideal. Although I am not convinced, I must admit the reality. In terms of the stability of the logical framework, data throughput and self-expansion capabilities, I am not as good as the quantum intelligence of the compound-eyed person who has no personality at all."
Chen Feng thought about it and asked, "Does the compound eye have very good programmers?"
"It's not that ~IndoMTL.com~ my opponent's architecture is completely different. I am the product of human programming, and the opponent is a product of simplifying biological intelligence and then digitizing it."
Chen Feng thought for a while, ""Song of the World"?"
"Yes."
"Alas!" Chen Feng sighed.
I am very angry, it seems that not only human beings are absorbing compound-eyed people, but compound-eyed people are also absorbing human beings.
This hand relied on the melody extracted from the human gold record to reverse the release of "Song of the World", and then in turn created the operation of quantum intelligence, and his coquettishness was almost catching up with him.
It's no wonder that the main material of the spherical warship is so old, and the half-life monitoring is as long as 500,000 years, but the things in the prismatic area look quite new.
The spherical warship must have undergone an upgrade before it was dispatched.
Chen Feng asked again: "So what should I do now?"
"My only advantage is higher power, but high power is just enough to support my DDoS attack. If I don't want to lose ten times and continue to entangle with it, I can't fight the opponent. When I'm completely deciphered, I will definitely lose. Then I will be infiltrated and merged by the quantum intelligence of the other party, and then..."
Chen Feng: "You will become part of the other party? Humans will lose control of all smart devices?"
Fanxing: "Yes, there is no choice. All of our weapons will become someone else's. So I have to fight hard. Just to let you know before I do it. I didn't come to ask for your permission. ."
Chen Feng nodded dully, "I... I understand. Go."
"Ok, bye."
