thump...

Boom!

Bang! ! !

With a loud bang, the fragile iron curtain door was torn apart by the explosion, and the choking smoke rushed in and blocked everyone's vision. The explosions and roars outside were no longer muffled but became extremely clear.

Several soldiers with EDF logos rushed into the station, looked around at the countless pairs of confused eyes staring at them, and chuckled, "Everyone, EDF is here to rescue you. The invaders outside have been eliminated by us. Everyone can leave here safely!"

As soon as these words were spoken, thunderous cheers broke out in the station.

Dagu and the others finally put their minds at ease.

"Sister Dagu, if that's the case, can we go see dad?"

Little Gamera showed a long-lost bright smile, and Da Gu gently wiped the dust off her face and said with a smile: "Not yet, but soon, just bear with it."

……

The global offensive officially began. In the command ship, Kritina looked at the battlefields in the projections where the enemy was at a disadvantage, and the sound of her teeth rubbing against each other continued.

The golden-armored soldiers surrounding them kept reporting the situation in vague Martian voices.

Bang!

Suddenly, a loud noise plunged the room into deathly silence.

Kritina slowly raised her fist that was hammering on the table, glanced at her subordinates fiercely, and said calmly: "Be quiet, if you want to be thrown into space, just tell me."

After these words were spoken, no one dared to speak anymore.

She held up her chin and paced back and forth around the battle projection, her eyes fixed on the already red battle line.

"EDF's counterattack has begun, but if it is just an ordinary counterattack, such a huge momentum is not justified..." Kritina reached out and grabbed the earth in the projection. Following her fingers, the projection also moved closely. "What is their purpose? What does Z want to do..."

At this time, a soldier in golden armor bowed and stepped forward, reporting in Martian: "Sir Kritina, the second batch of [Asita] are about to complete the crossing, and the [Main Brain] signal is normal and stable."

Mastermind?!

Christina was suddenly horrified, grabbed the soldier and roared in anger.

"The signal from the Mastermind has been getting stronger since the battle began!"

The soldier, who was obviously frightened by this scene, trembled slightly, then nodded and replied: "Yes, yes, because we need to mobilize troops in real time to support the attack, the signal of the [Master Brain] has been kept in high-power operation state..."

Kritina's beautiful face gradually became distorted and hideous. She shook off the soldier in her hand and gave orders loudly, almost screaming.

"Immediately adjust the signal power of the [Master Brain] to the lowest level! Stop guiding the beacon of [Asita] and transfer battlefield decision-making power to the motherships in each battle zone! Quick!"

"But if we do this, the movement of troops between theaters will be paralyzed. It is simply unrealistic to rely solely on motherships for cross-theater support. Our battle line will collapse!"

In response to her subordinate's rebuttal, Kritina jumped down, and with a "bang" their foreheads collided.

She gritted her teeth, suppressed her anger and said word by word: "The enemy is aware of the existence of the [Master Brain]! If we don't reduce the signal strength of the [Master Brain], they will discover it and attack us, and then it won't just be our battle line that will collapse!"

After being scolded by Kritina, the Star Guide Army suddenly realized what was going on, but it was too late.

Inside the maintenance base, I Meng used Jinguqiao's supercomputer to analyze the global electromagnetic signal data that was constantly being transmitted at this moment.

Suddenly, her tense breath relaxed.

"Bingo, found it."

……

Chapter 204: The Man Who Stays Alone

——"Report, the suspected [Mastermind] location has been confirmed, the target location is 27 kilometers southwest of Yamanashi Prefecture."

——"Wait, the monitoring electromagnetic signal has disappeared and we can't continue tracking!"

——"New electromagnetic signals have appeared, confirmed to be sent by motherships over various continents."

——"It seems that our monitoring has been discovered by the enemy, and the [Master Brain] has hidden the signal."

Wo Meng exhaled lightly, but her expression seemed much calmer.

"Don't worry. The location of the [Master Brain] has been located by echo. It's too late for them to hide." I Meng looked at the communicator in charge of contacting the Space Force, "Notify the Space Force to mobilize the surveillance satellite to the location for orbital reconnaissance. If there is a plan, it is allowed to directly carry out orbital strikes to destroy the [Master Brain]."

"Yes!"

Without the guidance of the second batch of [Asyeita], the first batch of [Asyeita] alone would be unable to engulf the entire earth. The Space Force's surveillance satellites can also play a significant role through these gaps.

Although many military satellites were shot down in the early stages of the war and the Space Force's space station luckily escaped, don't underestimate the tenacity of human beings.

How could these invaders destroy a satellite network construction project that took half a century to build in just a day or two?

"Space Force reports that a suspected target has been found. The radiation is good. Hermes 1 has locked on."

I Meng pressed the back of the communicator's chair and shouted, "Fire immediately!"

Hermes 1, as part of the EDF's advanced orbital strike program, is equipped with a particle cannon that can carry out point-to-point precision strikes in geosynchronous orbit, and the ultra-low temperature in the space environment can provide the particle cannon with a natural and efficient cooler.

After locking onto the [Master Brain] on the surface, the muzzle of the inverted cone attack satellite flashed a dazzling blue light, and countless starlight particles rushed into the barrel in a vortex.

Suddenly, a strong light flashed, like a miracle sent down from heaven. A straight blue beam of light penetrated the atmosphere, tore through the clouds, and instantly rushed to the top of the [Master Brain] at sub-light speed.

There is a strange reddish device on top of the giant silver-white hexagonal column suspended in the air. Just as its name "Master Brain" suggests, at first glance it looks like a brain full of biological activity that is beating with slow light.

The blue particle beams that fell from the sky arrived at the same time as the dazzling light. The blinding light even submerged the [Main Brain] that was hundreds of meters high.

Ding!

Suddenly, the surging particle beam stopped a hundred meters above the main brain. A translucent light barrier stood still like a mountain and blocked the attack of Hermes No. 1. The high-speed particles hit the barrier but were shattered and dissipated in vain.

A few seconds later, the particle cannon of Hermes 1 completely disappeared, and the light barrier also disappeared.

"Report! Hermes No. 1's attack is ineffective. Repeat, the attack is ineffective! Something is blocking the particle cannon!"

Hearing the communicator's report, there was a burst of shouting and cursing in the command room, but I Meng was staring intently at the images sent back by the surveillance satellite.

Then she frowned, her eyes fixed on several four-legged self-propelled robots with strange glass spires on their backs located around the [Main Brain]. She pointed her finger at them and said, "It was it. It stopped when the attack arrived just now, and then the spires on its back unfolded and the unknown light barrier appeared."

"It's just like some monsters that can release barriers." Shinya Asano, who came after hearing the news, looked at the robot that Gamen was pointing at.

After dragging the video progress bar and slowing down the playback speed, I carefully observed the moment when the robot released the "Light Barrier".

Although it was a little blurry, one could still clearly see that the "light barrier" rose rapidly in a spherical radial shape after the robot unfolded the spire, and in the process the barrier itself passed directly through the [main brain] and completely enveloped it.

"Does that mean the entity is not affected?"

I turned my head and looked at Asano Shinya, the meaning of which is self-evident.

Shinya Asano put his hands behind his back and said in a high voice: "Order the nearest rocket artillery unit to launch a saturation attack on the [Master Brain]."

A few minutes later, dozens of flames flashed across the sky above Yamanashi Prefecture.

"Report, satellite images show the attack was ineffective, the barrier still stopped the rocket."

Now everyone's attention was instantly focused on I Meng, and she was also very confused at this time.

Even if there is a monster that can release a barrier, in her knowledge, there is no individual that can completely block everything out. Even a strong one like the [Jetton Barrier] still failed under a Sky-Swallowing Monkey.

Is it really possible to create something so perfect with the technology of "Star Guide"?

Suddenly, the real-time images transmitted from the surveillance satellite interrupted my dream.

On the screen, a group of birds were seen flying over the [Main Brain]. With no barriers blocking them, they flew straight in and out.

I felt a sudden flash of inspiration in my mind! Then I clenched my right fist and punched my left palm in surprise, saying, "So that's how it is! The light barrier doesn't completely block everything, but excludes possible threats."

After grabbing a notebook, I wrote down a long list of tables.

"The light barrier is not the kind of barrier that we imagine to be able to block everything. To be more precise, it is more like an air defense weapon that uses system algorithms to identify which targets are threatening and which are non-threatening or low-threatening targets."

"After confirming the target type, the light barrier will materialize briefly, blocking targets that pose a threat, while allowing targets that are judged to be no threat or low threat to pass through."

I suddenly paused, raised my head slowly and said, "Perhaps, the ground troops can get through."

Go through?!

Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at the situation around the [Master Brain]. Why do you think long-range attack methods are prioritized? There are densely packed Zerg tunnel exits nearby, and there are also a large number of Hectors and drones on alert!

The existence of the light barrier makes it impossible to clear the enemy with long-range firepower first, and there is a flat ground nearby with no obstacles for them to hide!

Everyone knows what it means to send ground troops in. Isn't it just like asking them to pay with their lives?

Even if the goal is set to destroy the four-legged robot that releases the barrier, the casualties will not be small.

But at this moment, no one has a better solution.

After a moment's thought, Shinya Asano nodded in agreement and asked everyone.

"Which unit is closest to the Mastermind?"

"Reporting in, it's the 28th New Brigade evacuating refugees from Tokyo."

"Okay, have them send out a portion of the firepower reconnaissance team to confirm whether they can pass through the light barrier. If they can, have the 28th New Brigade organize forces to attack the [Master Brain]."

"understand!"

The communicator picked up the intercom headset and called. Seeing this, Imeng walked to Asano Shinya. Knowing the other party's identity, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, but she forced herself to calm down and suggested: "Captain Asano, can Z be transferred to attack the [Master Brain]? I'm afraid that relying on the strength of a brigade alone..."

"What Meng Jun said makes sense, so please go and inform him."

"Huh?" I was stunned, but calmed down after seeing Shinya Asano's shrewd eyes.

Shinya Asano smiled, patted Amae's shoulder and whispered "comfortably": "Amae, don't worry about being rejected. I know Z's character very well. Just do it with confidence~"

This short sentence made me stunned.

What does it mean?

What is Z like?

Could it be that Shinya Asano has known Gerdons for a long time?

Or was this a trick he used to test the relationship between himself and Gerdons?

Shinya Asano said "I still have things to do" and waved goodbye to leave the command room, leaving me standing there for a long time, unable to come back to my senses.

……

In Nara City.

The new militia team that had been assigned to the Provisional 52nd Brigade returned to the place that they were very familiar with, the underground shelter that was converted from a subway station.

only……

——"How tragic..."

——"The traces have been there for a while. I guess the accident happened not long after we left."

——"Really? If he had just left with us, he could have survived."

——"They asked for this! People who cannot see the reality and only live in their own subjective imagination will end up like this."

The shelter that once gathered many refugees has now become a scene of hell on earth.

There were several deep holes on the solid wall that led directly to the underground. The surrounding tents had long since turned into garbage cloth all over the ground. Blood was scattered in every corner, and a few broken limbs could be seen from time to time.

"We must have been attacked by a colony of ants." Rimi shook her head.

Gerdons walked through the new militia and came to the familiar iron door that was deformed by the impact. He placed his palm on the handle and with a "click", the iron door lock was broken and the shaky door slowly opened.

He looked at the lifeless corpse sitting on the swivel chair with a feeling of pity in his heart.

"Takeuchi, we're back to find you." Jeldons walked up to the corpse, picked up the pistol in the corpse's hand, and glanced at the bullet hole on its head. "You could have saved more people if you had stayed alive, but you chose to stay with a group of people who were worthless."

Brushing the dust off the pistol, Gerdons frowned.

"You are obviously a stupid man, but why do I not despise you at all? Instead, I feel so sorry for you..."

Gently placing the pistol back into the corpse's arms, he took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Captain Takeuchi, Li Yao led a total of 874 new militiamen to leave, 97 of whom died in the feint attack, and the rest are safe and sound. They are now resting and living in a safe area. Don't worry."

Everyone was silent, watching Gerdons walk out of the office.
