Chapter 7, Who is Killing Our Loved Ones

It is precisely for this reason that the ground resistance on the Milok planet can continue

Bang

The entire special feature is produced in black and white, restoring only one color: the color of blood. Throughout the entire feature, all the blood is in its original color, both tragic and vivid

This group of Lele people said: "Let’s go! We will retrieve what we have lost!"

The President concluded by saying: "Blood debt! ... ... Blood compensation!"

He stood before the Independence Monument, which symbolizes freedom and unity. Behind him, the television screen displayed footage captured by reporters risking their lives during the fall of various planets. This footage was sent back to the capital and compiled into a special feature titled: "Who is Killing Our Loved Ones"

Seeing that Milan seemed to still be simmering with anger and was on the verge of another outburst, the chubby man, aware that this seemingly calm woman was actually a powder keg, hurriedly changed the subject, saying: "What metal is this mecha made of?"

Their homeland, where their loved ones suffer from the ravages of war, yet they find themselves powerless

***

The old man turned his head and said to Milan, "Show him the manufacturing theory and data of this mech." He then said to the fat man, "Make sure to read the last sentence clearly; if you have any questions, Milan will help you answer them"

The fat man was startled, quickly jumping up, his whole body trembling, like a dog wagging its tail excitedly at its master. A flattering smile immediately spread across his chubby face: "Just kidding, just kidding. This is undoubtedly the masterpiece of the beautiful and intelligent Miss Milan."

Federal President Hamilton delivered the third nationwide television address since the outbreak of war

"Correct answer." A voice came from behind the fat man. The fat man turned his head and saw it was Professor Boswell.

A bullet struck beside Tian Xingjian's foot

The properties of this metal were discovered by Professor Boswell. Milan's slender fingers swiftly twirled a ballpoint pen back and forth, her petite nose wrinkling with pride as she said, "I utilized the repulsive properties of the gold-eating grass and the raw stone to create this alloy!"

The old man said with a cold expression: "You will work here for at least two years. Wait until this document is decrypted or its confidentiality level is lowered to Level B. During these two years, you can stay here with peace of mind."

So, who will go first

The Gachalin Empire has intensified its ground offensive against Milok Star. The Lelei Federation, having nearly lost its air power, has had the main connections between cities severed by the imperial forces. The garrison troops in each city find themselves fighting in isolation. Despite their desperate defense, five cities inevitably fell into the hands of the invaders

The President stated: "We must remember these images, and such images continue to unfold on Milok Star; we have no right to abandon them"

Wormholes are the only means for humanity to conquer the universe by traversing distances in space and time. Humanity has utilized natural wormholes between star regions to create space jump corridors, reducing distances of thousands of light-years to almost the blink of an eye. During space jumps, interstellar warships are unable to deploy energy shields. A warship without an energy shield can be completely destroyed by a simultaneous main cannon fire from three enemy warships.

Several hours later, when the reporter passed by again, the father was still there, sitting in the midst of the fleeing crowd, blankly holding his child. His face was ashen as he stared at the camera. As the photographer moved, his gaze followed, as if the lens was pulling at his vacant eyes. Finally, the photographer stepped back, the lens zooming out further and further. When the father became a small figure in the frame, people could still see the look in his eyes and the book, a gaze filled with desperate emptiness

At the end of this document, which records various data, manufacturing theories, and experimental results of the mechs, it is prominently stated: This document is classified as S-level top secret by the Lelei Federation

The boundary between Atlantis and Lele is actually two vast spatial regions separated by tens of thousands of light-years. These two regions serve as the entrances to the wormholes.

There are many such scenes...

Milan, unable to endure any longer, went on a rampage! Grabbing a gun at hand, he shouted in anger: "You fat bastard, are you deliberately seeking death today?"

Two years! A voice rang in the fat man's ear, sounding like a demon to him; it was Boswell, who had exploited his curiosity to trap him.

Two months ago, after losing more than fifty percent of its warships, the local fleet, responsible for guarding the Newton Star System and composed almost entirely of local soldiers from the Milok binary stars, retreated in humiliation to the Lelei Central Star Domain

A mechanic soldier who is striving to have his death sentence commuted to life imprisonment can only imagine the consequences of seeing such an S-level top-secret document, and the fat man no longer dares to contemplate it

"Son of a dog! Come on!" a sergeant shouted angrily as he and his squad repeatedly repelled the enemy's assaults. Behind him was the airport, and the enemy's airborne infantry was closing in. Fighter jets were hastily evacuating, and they had to hold their ground, with no retreat possible. The camera panned over the sergeant's comrades, and when it returned, a bullet pierced the sergeant's head, causing him to collapse violently into the dirt, a spray of blood staining the entire frame. Nearby soldiers rushed over, futilely pressing on his wound, shouting loudly, "Help! Medic!"

A bleeding soldier smiled at the photographer and said, "We do not fear, we resist. If you could see it... Mom, I love you." Three minutes later, he died in unbearable pain with a picture book.

The plump man, taken aback, quickly finished reading the document; however, the last sentence left him trembling and at a loss for words

The imperial forces are currently guarding the entrance to the Atlantis star region, with the Gachalin Empire's space fleet stationed here. Several fleets are assigned to protect different sections of this vast space. They can detect any non-imperial spacecraft that appears within this area in the shortest possible time and can encircle or destroy it.

Is this a spark of a star about to ignite, or a flickering glow about to extinguish from the ashes

Their eyes are red, and no one dares to compete with them.

The fat man understood: "In other words, liquid metal is the biological cell of the gold-eating plant that causes the metal to take on a liquid state. When this biological cell is forcibly isolated or shut down, this metal, which resembles biological fluid, will revert to a solid state. Although the gold-eating plant can alter the form of the metal, this metal is originally its excrement, which it cannot absorb, thus avoiding the phenomenon of the biological cell consuming the metal. By mixing in shape memory alloys to accelerate this transformation process, this super alloy is produced. By mixing in shape memory alloys to accelerate this transformation process, this super alloy is produced. Is that correct?"

As Milan walked towards the giant computer against the wall, he gestured for the fat man to follow and then said: "This metal has the advantages of liquid metal without its drawbacks. Of course, the price is not any cheaper than that of liquid metal. In some respects, it is even rarer than liquid metal."

A tremendous explosion erupted in the most bustling area of the city. Amidst the heart-wrenching cries, a father tightly held his deceased young son, burying his head against the boy's forehead, continuously kissing him. Tears mixed with snot streamed down the boy's face.

The old man, somewhat surprised, patted the fat man's head and said: "Your comprehension is quite good. You were able to infer the experimental idea from a sentence in Milan. It seems that limiting you to mechanical maintenance is a waste of your talents"

The brutal war continues unabated

In fact, they haven't even had three hours of sleep! ... They are awakened every day by nightmares, or they wake up in silent tears ... unable to fall asleep again ...

... ...

When mentioning his most proud masterpiece, Milan seemed to lose some of his enthusiasm. He tossed aside the gun in his hand and clapped, saying: "Let me teach you something good. This is the bi-stable metal that Professor Boswell and I invented, with the experimental code BM3633. It hasn't been officially named yet"

Everyone who has watched this documentary cried. They will forever remember these images

They are in great pain

War is the continuation of politics, and politics is to ensure the development needs of one's own citizens Although the development of nuclear technology could easily destroy a planet thousands of years ago, under the constraints of the Cosmic Warfare Convention, and also for practical needs, both warring parties will refrain from using weapons that would bring unbearable consequences to their own citizens

... ...

More tragedies are occurring, and the reporter has left

March 2060 of the New Era

The overweight man felt somewhat bewildered, thinking to himself: "Am I not on a suspended sentence? What does he mean by two years?"

Even so, for the Lelei Federation, this remains a battle that is destined to commence with sacrifice

All eyes were directed towards the junction between the Atlantis Star Domain and the Lelei Central Star Domain ... . ... Only by breaking through here can the Newton Star System return to the hands of the Federation

As the local fleet of the Newton star system, having replenished its troops and warships, resolutely disappeared one after another into a realm of distorted light and shadow

Go become the target of enemy attacks, use blood to guard the exit of the passage, and bear sacrifices for the fleet that follows

This sharp question elicited cold laughter from the warriors of the Newton Star System's local fleet, who scoffed at the person who posed it

The Lelei Federation has assembled a fleet that accounts for more than half of the total military and logistical strength of the nation, and has commenced a vigorous assault on the jump points

The federal radio calls for resistance every day, and the resistance has never ceased. Among the five fallen cities, three have become complete ruins, with millions of people perishing in the flames of war. Even so, underground resistance organizations have begun to emerge in these cities. These groups, formed spontaneously by scattered federal soldiers, quickly gather according to the "Soldier's Code of Conduct Behind Enemy Lines," using almost makeshift weapons to incessantly harass the enemy, demonstrating tenacity and stubbornness.

Every day spent in the Lelei Central Star Region is a torment and an agony, and this heart-wrenching humiliation drives one to madness. They train incessantly, sleeping only three hours each day

The advantage of the Federation is that no one will know at what moment these vengeful warships will suddenly appear before the Imperial forces. No battleship's main cannon can be fully charged within two minutes, nor will anyone know the exact location where the Federation warships will emerge from their jump. After the jump concludes, it only takes three minutes for the warships to activate their energy shields

On the touchscreen of the computer, Milan pointed to a type of plant in a document and said to the overweight man: "This metal can only be obtained from the ore through this gold-eating grass. This grass is only found in the Arctic of Milok Star, and its quantity is extremely scarce. Due to the presence of natural radioactive materials and superheavy metal particles in the soil of the Arctic Circle, basically no organisms can survive there. This grass is the sole master of that environment; it maintains a very high proportion of metals in its nutrients, and any metals that cannot be absorbed are expelled from its body. This excretion is the ore of bi-stable metals."

This excretion is the ore of bi-stable metals.

... ...

However, how much longer can this futile resistance last? The federal soldiers are somewhat bewildered. If the federation cannot establish air superiority, then the ground forces will be systematically eliminated, and the blood and sacrifices will only result in meaningless casualties
