The world of stars, the sea of vacuum between the stars, is filled with dust that is extremely thin but like mist.

Frontier Galaxy, located between Sector 78 and Sector 76, the Gulangma Nebula was once an interstellar civilization called the Langma Federation, which was not destroyed at the hands of the evil gods, but an extreme coincidence brought about by an erroneous psionic ritual caused by an artificially induced supernova outbreak more than 300,000 years ago, which caused the entire Langma Federation to use the sun's energy to operate incorrectly, and through the hyperspace psionic reaction, the chain detonated the twenty-three stars under their control, Destroyed all of the Federation's core territories and colonies in eight minutes.

I don't know if it's stupid or unlucky, what is theoretically impossible has killed 87 billion Langma people in an instant, and the star dust of their union has become a composite nebula that is still spreading, and the souls and psionic energy of all Langma people have spread and condensed in the nebula, condensed, and converged into a small psionic star: because the death was too sudden and too unforeseen, the Langma people of that year did not have time to give birth to 'ridiculous' and ' Anger' was wiped out, so the psionic star was pure, and could even serve as a coordinate for the ship, guiding the fleets of the newcomers through this nebula of sorrow.

300,000 years later, the psionic star is gradually dying out, and the Gulangma Nebula has ushered in a new uninvited guest, the Chaos Clan, who descends from the void to destroy and use everything they can perceive, and the nebula is no exception, becoming their lair.

The Gulangma Nebula contains a large amount of psionic clutter, and the Chaos Clan is not worried about this interference, but it is difficult for ordinary fleets to navigate in it, and without the guidance of psionic stars, the Gulangma Nebula has completely become a hiding place for Chaos demons and a forbidden area for the surrounding civilizations.

Now, however, a huge and strange fleet was shuttling through the Gulang Ma Nebula, and in the center of the fleet, a giant battleship with a three-dimensional image resembling a G-shape, with a frontal height of more than twenty-five kilometers, was spewing out a stream of psionic energy like a phantom, advancing in a vacuum, and its side was depicted with a bright red flame pattern that was blazing.

'Agni' urgently cleared the fleet.

You can see that in the distant nebula, a small reconnaissance ship jumped out, and after handing over the signal, it quickly approached the fleet, and then was included in the giant warship, and with the connection of the database, a large amount of information was transmitted.

"Really? The psionic star has been completely extinguished, but so has the Chaos Family. ”

In the command room of the bridge, an old Qin Yaren who looked like a cicada shook his tentacles, he calmly read the exploration information in the database, and muttered: "In this way, there are no enemies in the entire Gulangma Nebula. Twenty-seven reconnaissance ships got the same result from all directions, unless the Chaos Clan evolved some new abilities, which was the case. ”

After thinking for a moment, the cold voice of the machine came from the chest of this Qin Yaren, and the translation of the mechanical hum said: "The whole ship accelerates, we leave the inner layer of the nebula and move to the next target." ”

"Yes!"

The uniform answer came, and as the order was conveyed one by one, the number of ships exceeded two thousand, and the Flame Emergency Fleet with the giant Star Destroyer turned slightly, and then all of them picked up speed and flew towards the periphery of the nebula.

Since there is no target here, then carry out the next mission, and the emergency cleaning fleet is equivalent to the white blood cells in the 'Star Guardian Alliance', and the goal is to clean up all the germs related to chaos in the territory of the alliance.

No one on the ship has any opinion on this order, every crew member of the sweeping fleet is a carefully selected elite, with the best quality and combat awareness, and the captain who commands this group of elites, the strong psyker who controls the 'Armageddon-class Star Destroyer', and the commander of the five-star fleet Kedar is the elite of the elite, for this man who has fought for more than forty-five years in his life, commanding three fleets and fighting Chaos one hundred and two times. Alliance Level 1 Guardian Medal holder, no one would have meaningless questioning of his orders.

Even the deputy captain of the Star Destroyer and the captain of the maintenance department, Faya, a native of the atrium, would unconditionally trust this experienced old commander most of the time.

Today, however, is an exception.

Falla is an atrium man with a lot of carotene in his body, so the leaves on the top of his head will be orange-yellow, and he pretends not to care, his eyes sweep over Commander Kedar, who looks calm and normal, and his heart is full of worry.

The worry didn't start today, to be precise, since the Flame Fleet's mission not long ago, Falla had been a little worried about Kedar's mental state.

After all, not everyone can remain normal after witnessing the bombing of their race's home planet, and what is even more terrifying is that the person who gave the order is the person himself, and even, on that chaotic planet, the only descendant of that person, the grave of his dead wife, and the last remnants of all his relatives and friends.

It's simply the worst day a person can ever experience.

After enduring such pain, being able to maintain normality is the biggest abnormality, and Falla had already applied to the senior management of the Alliance Military Department for Kedar for a recuperation course and special psychological team psychotherapy after that mission, but I don't know if the recent battle situation was too anxious, and the order to adjust the rest that should have been issued a long time ago has not arrived, so that Kedar still leads the fire fleet to clean up and fight everywhere.

Actually, it's nothing, Sprout thinks that if he has been fighting with the Chaos Clan, it would be a good thing for Kedar to be able to vent the pain and anger in his heart a little, at least this is a normal channel, but I don't know if the big detour is too successful or not. After the Eternal Void Anchor was destroyed, there was a huge mutation in the entire camp of the Evil God Clan, and the Great Eastern Star Region encountered continuous onslaught, while the Great Southern Star Region, which is the Great Star Region where the Flame Fleet was located, all retreated, leaving only empty nests and depleted star systems.

"Oops, the Chaos Clan in the Gulangma Nebula has also retreated...... We haven't even fought a single battle in weeks! ”

Falla secretly complained in his heart, of course he knew that the sadness and anger in Captain Kedar's heart had not completely calmed down, he had seen several times that Kedar would take out the photos of his family before in his spare time, and the words 'Eternal Void Anchor' and 'Star Splitter Fleet' would occasionally be transmitted in the psionic wave, which completely explained that the other party was abnormal.

'Eternal Void Anchor' Needless to say, its essence is a void gate connected to the void and lasts for eternity, it is the largest source of reinforcements for the Chaos Clan, in the time it once existed, the number of Chaos Dependents pouring out of each time unit even exceeded the number of Chaos Dependents eliminated by hundreds of battlefields at the same time, and the life preservation program confirmed through calculations that if the Eternal Void Anchor was not destroyed, the war would never be won, and the Great Roundabout Battle was the Guardian Alliance's efforts to contain the main force of the Chaos Clan on the frontal battlefield in order to divert the tiger from the mountain, and the elite troops moved through long distances, a suicide attack to destroy the Void anchor.

The Star Splitter Fleet is one of the fleets that launched a suicide attack on the Eternal Void anchor in the Great Roundabout Campaign, most of the members of which are alone, without any relatives and friends, or a lone husband whose relatives and friends all died in the hands of Chaos, only one of the eighteen fleets that committed suicide attacks together has a small fleet of warships that survived and maintained the number, and all the others have been gloriously withdrawn, and the names and careers of all members of the fleet have been recorded in the 'Guardian Martyrs Monument'.

In Falla's opinion, Commander Kedar undoubtedly has no intention of living, he wants to serve in the Star Splitter fleet, continue to carry out all kinds of most dangerous and difficult missions, and then die in a certain mission Maybe the order did not come for this reason, Kedar should have applied for this order a long time ago, and the military department top brass welcomes this kind of death-minded and experienced old captain to serve in the Star Splitter fleet, which can definitely deal the biggest blow to Chaos.

It's just that there hasn't been a small encounter for several weeks, and Falla is very worried that if Captain Kedar's mental state anger is not vented, it will really gradually destroy the sanity of the psyker, and Kedar is still an omega-level psyker, if he really goes crazy, I'm afraid that the Star Destroyer will be destroyed by him by himself.

"Don't worry, Falla, I'm also a veteran of more than forty years of fighting."

Suddenly, Falla, who thought he was well hidden, heard a mechanical sound coming from the translation machine, and he looked up in shock, and found that Captain Kedar had turned his head, and his tentacles trembled and said, "I'm really fine, you don't have to worry too much about my mental problems." ”

"You, can you see through my thoughts?"

Falla felt a moment of embarrassment at being spied into the secret, then a wave of surprise, and even shock: "Although it has not been for a long time, I am also an omega-level psyker...... Wait, isn't it! ”

Thinking of a possibility, the leaf on top of Falla's head began to curl in shock: "You have broken through the realm of immortals?!" ”

The so-called immortal realm is beyond the 'can carry out interstellar fleet battles with a single body', the real powerhouse who can decide the direction of a battle by himself, this level of psionic ability, even the entire guardian alliance is rare, more than 8,000 interstellar civilizations combined, there are no more than forty people, most of them are leaders of many civilizations, and they can't easily go to the battlefield.

If the other party really breaks through the realm of immortals, then they must be able to really control their emotions and not fall into madness...... In that case, it's a good thing.

"Probably, it's just that I just broke through that layer of paper."

But Kedar responded flatly: "I have been pondering at the peak of my realm for decades, and under the stimulation of extreme emotions some time ago, I have reviewed my life, figured out many problems that have plagued me before, and observed every vein of my spiritual energy with the calmest mind...... I did make progress, but it's hard to say if I was an immortal or not. ”

This was originally a happy event, the fleet commander broke through the immortal realm at the top of the entire alliance, which should be a great joy to convey the entire alliance, but for some reason, Falla suddenly felt a heartfelt sense of desolation.

If the price of an advanced immortal is to personally order the destruction of his hometown, his home planet, and everything he once cherished, then not many people will be willing to do this, because people gain power for the sake of the purpose, and destroy the purpose and reason for the sake of power, which is the most ridiculous stupidity.

It was hard for Falla to imagine how much anger and hatred had precipitated under Kedar's calm tone and his unrecognizable eyes, and what kind of surging emotions could have pushed this commander who had been concentrating on commanding operations for decades and had never seriously thought about how to break through the realm in just a few weeks.

Kordar himself does not know.

In front of the bridge, the fleet commander who turned his head stared at the vacuum in front of him, staring at the hazy stars in the distance, his tone has always been calm and rational, but that is already the limit of the current Qin Yaren did not dare to speak at all, it had no idea when he would suddenly let out a roar or a painful wail, pouring out all the spiritual energy in his body, destroying everything around him.

Break through the realm of the Immortals? Perhaps. Kedar knew very well that the short-term increase in his strength was probably just a return to the light and the huge psionic energy that was born by emotions had begun to gradually exceed his control, reaching a realm that he had never wanted, and when the day came when his strength broke through the limit, he was indeed likely to advance, but it was more likely to become a terrifying and weird immortal-level psionic monster.

I have to leave, and if I want to get out of control, at least in the Chaos Clan.

The voice of reason told him that the anger of anger should be poured out on the enemy, so that it was the best revenge, and it was also the only meaning of his existence.

No matter what the fuck, as long as I can kill the Chaos Clan, I don't care what monster I become!

This is the roar of hatred of the ownerless, he has lost all his relatives, all his friends, and even lost his hometown home planet Qin Yaren is already a civilization without a home, the Qin Ya people who are wandering in the entire alliance may be able to continue to exist in the form of interstellar civilization, but the newborn Qin Ya people will never know the beauty of their home planet again.

There was nothing left, no reason to fight chaos or suppress anger other than hatred and revenge, and every day when he woke up from his dreams, he would be confused, laughing at himself for why he had to keep his sanity.

Anyway, he really has nothing, so why do he have to suppress himself, pretend to be reasonable, and even pretend to be calm and calm, to give instructions that make him feel like vomiting?

Emotions were torn and torn in his mind, but Kedar was still able to keep his senses, as he said, he was really fine, and as a great psychic, he could indeed control his emotions, even if it was just walking on thin ice...... At least, during this time in the Agni Fleet, he could control it.

As for the transfer of the Starbreaker fleet...... That's another story.

"Come on."

Staring at the distant hazy stars, his psionic energy glowing with red, Kedar whispered to himself nervously, "I can't wait......"

And right now.

In the vacuum, a giant web of psionic energy that could not be seen at all below the infinite light level began to tremble, and with a faint hum, four completely different rays of light began to leap and spread throughout the starry world.

The pure blazing light swept across the tens of millions of star fields, billions of stars, and they searched, echoing those who could resonate with themselves, looking for their own apostles.

Then, a blood-red light broke away from the trembling web and sped out, descending on Kedar's mind without anyone noticing.

No one noticed this, not Falla, who was at the Kerdar trial, or the rest of the fleet staff on the bridge.

Only Kordar himself was shocked.

He felt that his soul was heating up, and an incomparably pure and clear emotion poured into his spiritual sea, making the chaotic spiritual world of the old Qin Yaren, which was mixed with hatred, anger, sadness and confusion, suddenly clear.

At that moment, many things suddenly surged through Kedahl's mind.

He wants to kill the Chaos Clan, the more the better, he wants to take care of the fucking fleet and blame, and directly drive the Star Destroyer towards the nearest Chaos Lair to blow himself up, he wants to simply die in the war with Chaos, he wants to pour out his endless hatred, pour out his endless anger and madness, no matter what reason there is, there is no longer anyone who needs his rational treatment, and then just turn into a powerful psionic monster, go to Chaos to kill.

The purest 'hatred' induced countless dark thoughts, which were like stones falling from the mire, causing countless lurking poisonous snakes, insects and ants to swarm out, Kedar stared at these dark, even unbearable thoughts in his mind in shock, and couldn't help but clench his joints, and his tentacles curled up.

But in the same way, at this moment, many thoughts also surged in his heart.

He wants to protect other races, other civilizations, so that they will not repeat the mistakes of their homeland, he wants to lead his fleet, his own crew to fight against the invasion of Chaos, so that such a sad individual does not appear, his heart is full of endless courage, because he has nothing, no one to love uniquely, so he has everything.

Because he had nothing, he had no fear.

Kordar recalled his past vow to join the Guardian fleet.

"We will guard all life and order in the satellites, shining like stars on all civilizations and races, we are the vanguard against chaos, the guards against aggression."

"We are the Guardian Fleet, and we will sweep away chaos and calamity until the end of our lives."

Two emotions that seem to be diametrically opposed, but of the same origin, collide in Kedar's mind.

The old Qin Yaren raised his head wordlessly, his tentacles suddenly began to vibrate, and then in his spiritual world, he suddenly 'cried'.

"Ah, it turns out that there is such a huge cowardice in my heart."

He silently asked himself: "It turns out that I didn't control myself at all, just suppressed it?" ”

If we say that the loss of a loved one allows hatred to ferment unchecked, and then spread to others, and even destroy ourselves.

That's really a big cowardice and a joke.

If Chaos had thoughts and could speak, then he would have laughed at such a boring self.

"I ......"

In reality, the blood-red psionic energy that permeated Kedar's body suddenly shook and then dissipated violently, and he whispered, "I was wrong. ”

The fall of hatred can neither defeat the enemy nor destroy chaos, but can only send himself and those around him into the abyss...... What I need is never 'hatred', nor is it an escape from reality in the name of 'revenge', or even self-destruction, but the 'courage' to look directly at the blood, face this bleak life, persevere in the future where everything has been lost, and still decide to continue to move forward!

Admit your hatred, admit your mistakes, admit your cowardice, admit your self-abandonment and then direct your hatred at the enemy, correct your mistakes one by one, hang your cowardice on the wall as a warning, and sweep yourself into the trash.

Face it all, your dirty self, and the bleak reality. Then, at the same time, face the future without fear.

That's courage.

psionic energy, converges again, and then transforms.

The brighter, brighter, blood-red power gently pushed aside and walked eagerly, sensing that the power of Vice Captain Faya, who seemed to be in the wrong situation, was different from psionic energy, not a phantom-like light, but a 'substance' as if there was a substance.

"Hatred can also bring courage, like a lighthouse signpost to guide a ship."

Kedar let out a breath, a glint shining in his compound eyes, "But don't be overwhelmed by hatred and mistake that lighthouse for a destination. ”

My Fighting ...... Not for revenge against Chaos. My fights are not so superficial.

What I want is to move forward, in this world full of chaos, towards a future without chaos!

And just when Kedar finally realized the concept of 'courage' and 'hatred', 'anger' and 'madness', which is full of contradictions and oppositions, but can be unified, and the real 'courage' was born in his heart, the red light that poured into his mind suddenly shone brightly.

[Galactic Guardians Alliance, Individual Kedarmonaen, you have great courage in your heart, you belong to the Ring of Courage]

【Blazing Heaven invites you】

It's not enough just courage, at most, to get the approval of the Ring of Courage, to get a rune phantom, to really hold the Ring of Courage that is materialized.

To become a vow-bearer, one must be able to control hatred, understand madness, control anger, and realize courage, just like the half of the ring that is the vow, holding and abstaining from all these emotions.

A phantasm of a ring with a lightning-like rune could be seen appearing on Kedar's chest, hanging from one of its knuckles, and then rapidly materializing.

The blood-red flame ignited, enveloping the whole body of the old Qin Yaren, all the carapace cracks formed by old age, the aging of the joints, and all kinds of luster-free and rounded torso parts, all burned in this blood-colored flame, and then refreshed and returned to the youthful time!

At this moment, a momentum that seemed to materialize and majestic spread throughout the entire Armageddon-class Star Destroyer in an instant, and even spread to the entire Flame Fleet.

"Division, Commander?"

On the side, shocked by this overly powerful momentum, Falla opened her eyes wide and said in astonishment: "You, you broke through!" ”

There was no doubt that after seeing Kedar's new, completely youthful immortal body, Falla's tone was extremely determined, and he sincerely cheered: "Great! ”

"Oooh! The captain broke through? ”

"Commander, you actually ...... quietly"

"You can really get out of such a big blow......

"Congratulations to the Commander on becoming an immortal!"

Suddenly, the entire bridge was filled with joyful cheers and praises, even in the communication channel, there were all kinds of congratulations and blessings one after another, as Claire has led the fleet for more than ten years, both new and old members know very well how big the blow to their commander has been before, and while there is a good thing now, they will naturally do their part to wash away the haze with blessings.

"Alright, let's stop."

The strong mental fluctuations resounded in the minds of everyone in the entire fleet in an instant, and Kedar, who quickly controlled his new power, raised his head calmly, as if he wanted to say something to his crew, who had been silently supporting him and trusting him, but an urgent text message from the military department interrupted his thoughts.

“…… Very good. The Commander-in-Chief of the Flame Emergency Sweep Fleet, Kedarmonane, read the text several times, and he turned his head to look at Falla: "Change the crew settings, we turn, and head towards the 'Dark Galaxy' at full power." ”

"Commander?" Stunned for a moment, Falla quickly reacted, and his tone trembled with joy and a hint of trembling excitement: "Could it be that?!" ”

"It has been proven that the gods of the Atrium people joined forces with our great mechanical leader to destroy more than 90,000 Chaos systems not long ago, and the Chaos Clan has begun to shrink in full force, and we need not be alert for a major counterattack in the rear."

The cold and serious mechanical voice sounded from the translation machine in his chest again, and the spiritual message came into the minds of all the crew members of the entire fleet: "The military department has ordered all fleets that are not performing 'SS-class' and above emergency missions to suspend all existing operations and go to the front line of the star sector. ”

"We're going to finish cleaning up the characters and start fighting back!"

There was silence, and then there was cheering from the entire fleet.

After listening for a moment of sincerity, hatred and anger against Chaos, and undaunted calls for courage, Kerdar raised his head and looked at the stars in front of him that had begun to spin as the ship turned, and he could sense that the battleship was changing the settings and coordinates of the remote Leap Engine crew under Falla's command and dispatch, the psionic core was starting to charge, the battleship was accelerating, and everything was already in place.

Just in time.

So he said calmly: "Coordinates, Eastern Star Region, Tehran Star Field, First Star Base." ”

"The whole fleet is in position, in the best condition, start the long-distance jump engine, dock with the anchor point of the Tehran star field, and the action code name is the Great Counteroffensive, listen to my orders."

At this, Kerdar paused, lifted his knuckle, touched the red ring on it, and then, the final command.

"Jump!"
