The clouds gradually thickened, enveloping the mountains in the distance.

"Cough..." Bemaner had blood in her mouth, she gritted her teeth and stared at the huge creature that was close at hand, ready to desperately prepare.

Arms, ankles, back shoulders, waist... The crystal particles quickly condensed into a solid crystal bone. Her crystal bone is a translucent warm yellow color, like a spring tulip.

The shadow in front of him suddenly moved, the giant spider turned its head, and its limbs rustled.

It didn't continue to attack Bemaner, but rushed towards the mechas of the other people!

For...why...!?

Bemaner swallowed the blood in her mouth blankly. For some reason, she felt that her vision became more blurred.

She wanted to get up, but there was a sharp pain in her right calf—she groaned, but she couldn't move at all.

Cold sweat slid down Bemaner's forehead, drop after drop, she began to sweat abnormally, and her whole body began to tremble strangely.

The girl's face turned pale, she breathed heavily, and touched her painful leg with trembling fingers...

She felt mucus and hard spider silk, as well as warm blood.

The giant spider's spittle pierced her calf, where the blood flowed profusely, soaking the black military uniform of Silver Hokuto.

In an instant, Bemaner's mind buzzed.

She thought in a daze: So... the giant spider didn't continue to attack, did it because it believed itself to be the prey in its web?

Suddenly, a gust of wind surged from behind.

A white light flashed in front of his eyes, and the mecha snow dove flew over the girl's head!

In Xuejiu's cockpit, Jiang Jianming pushed the joystick to the bottom, and the mecha spread its wings and flew over the giant spider's head.

But the giant spider ignored it, it was rapidly approaching another M-Jidian 18 by the cliff.

Only then did Tang Zhen get into the cockpit, and when he looked up, he saw the sticky white substance ejected from the mouth of the alien creature, "I... shit!!"

He hastily twisted the fuselage, and the shock rolled down along the cliff, spider silk and venom sprayed all the way behind, leaving a large area of scorched corrosion marks between the cliffs.

"Tang Zhen! Run forward!" Jiang Jianming gritted his teeth violently. He almost hit the head of the alien creature just now, and the latter didn't respond!?

Snowdove is an S model... will it focus on larger prey?

Without hesitation, he directly turned on Xuejiu's original main gun and the two self-assembled mecha cannons, and fired wildly at the giant spider.

Strong light and smoke, crushed ice and chaotic rocks temporarily covered the head of the alien creature.

Suddenly, there was a strange sound inside the giant spider, the oval abdomen squirmed disgustingly, and an extremely long spider silk spewed out from the tail!

If this is entangled, there is only one word of death, Xuejiu slanted to avoid it dangerously, and spun into the air.Jiang Jianming opened the cockpit, grabbed the chest of the aircraft, and shouted: "Seth——"

The blue-black mech flew over at the sound, and there was no one in the cockpit, only the light of the brain flickered on the screen.

Seth's voice was extremely sharp:

Jiang Jianming's heart sank suddenly... Subspecies refer to the special mutant species of ordinary alien creatures, which are far more powerful and unpredictable than the same kind.If the matching degree of intelligent matching is within 80% to 30%, there is a possibility of subspecies.

And according to Seth, this disabled giant spider-like alien creature may not be a C-level subspecies...

It's a Class B subspecies!

This situation is definitely not normal, but there is no time to think about it.The moment Xuejiu and Jidian were parallel, Jiang Jianming jumped and fell directly from the mecha Xuejiu back into Jidian's cockpit!

He pulled the seat belt: "Seth, exchange control! You go to control the snow dove and listen to my remote instructions."

Jiang Jianming pressed his hands on the console, his eyes quickly corresponded to the positioning of his teammates to find someone, and at the same time opened the communication in the team: "Calm down, can you hear me?"

However... the scene was completely chaotic.

Joe had been scared away a long time ago, so he turned his mech and ran downhill at this time; seeing the giant spider crawling towards this side, Ellie screamed and started running regardless; Tang Zhen wanted to turn backGoing to rescue Bemaner, he almost bumped into Li Youfang's mecha...

The situation is out of control, and this is simply not a state where you can fight alien creatures.

Jiang Jianming made a judgment in an instant: "—Don't turn around, everyone runs straight forward, at full speed!!"

Tang Zhen roared: "Man'er's mecha is broken, I want to take her away!!"

Jiang Jianming manipulated the shock to fall, and directly switched to the same land form as his teammates in mid-air, and the four mechanical legs landed with a crash.

"Tang Zhen."

His voice was so cold, "If you want to save someone, just listen to me, go now!"

"..." Tang Zhen's eyes were bloodshot, he gritted his teeth for two seconds, turned around with electricity, and followed Jiang Jianming closely.

Jiang Jianming nodded at him, turned his eyes sideways and used the wrist phone to command the smart brain: "Seth, go up to the sky and circle around. After the target is lured away by us, you use the snow dove to bring Bemaner over."

The snowdove flew high into the sky over the giant spider.The giant spider lifted its abdomen and sprayed the spider silk several times but failed to hit it, so it continued to chase the five shocking machines on the ground.

Jiang Jianming raised his head and took a deep look at Xuejiu's back.

really……

When Shiden ran ahead, the thing ignored the smaller Snowdove.

Snowdove was much faster than Ji Dian, as long as they turned back while the giant spider was chasing them, they could definitely rescue Bemaner.

Along the way, they avoided the spider webs spraying from behind, ran at full speed frantically, and left all the barren valleys and rocks behind.

When night fell, the dark clouds above also caught up, and there was another snowstorm.

In the cold wind, Jiang Jianming confirmed that the giant spider was no longer behind, and turned on the communication channel: "Stop...all stop!"

At this time, almost everyone's mind was muddled, and Jiang Jianming yelled at the top of his voice for half a minute before calling his teammates to stop.

Dragging their heavy mechanical feet, several mechas struggled to get around to the leeward side in the heavy snowstorm, and fell silent.

There was a dead silence on the communication channel, no one spoke, only the heavy breathing of everyone.

About a full minute passed.

Tang Zhen said hoarsely: "... Those who still have the strength to move, come down and set up a tent with me." He said, pushed open the cockpit hatch, and jumped down shaking.

After a while, Li Youfang, Ellie and Qiao also got off the mecha numbly. Everyone's face was ashen, and their limbs were stiff.

Jiang Jianming didn't move, he panted with slack eyes, groped around with trembling fingers, grabbed the crystal particle tranquilizer and a few injections, rolled up his sleeves and injected them into his elbows one by one.

His physical strength had already reached its limit, exhaustion and soreness filled his limbs and bones.

If it wasn't for the last thread that was still stretched mentally, he even felt that he could collapse into the cockpit and sleep in the dark at any time.

The snowstorm is getting bigger and bigger.

Surrounded by completely unfamiliar gray mountains, the visibility is still declining, and everything is changing in a worse direction.

Jiang Jianming fell down in the cockpit of Jidian and couldn't get up. He felt that his low-grade fever symptoms began to recur again, and his perception of time and space was a little blurred.

"What to do... this is simply...!!"

"By the way... who contacted... the fortress..."

There was a shrill wind in ears, and could vaguely hear the excited voices of teammates rising and falling.

He was so dizzy before his eyes that he didn't even know when the others set up the tent.

Until Tang Zhen smashed hard on the hatch of his cockpit, the shouts sounded as if they were far away.

"Xiao Jiang...Xiao Jiang, wake up...Jiang Jianming!!"

Jiang Jianming was startled, sat up suddenly, and took a deep breath.

There was a lot of cold sweat on his back, and after blinking, his vision finally became clear.

I saw Tang Zhen climbed up to his Jidian against the wind and snow, and was knocking on the glass with his fist.

The young man's complexion was very pale, almost pale, and his chapped lips trembled: "Come out quickly, Xuejiu...bring Man'er back."

Under the automatic control of the intelligent brain Seth Henry, the mecha S-Xuejiu stopped next to Jiang Jianming's Jidian, and a layer of snow had already accumulated on the wings.

Jiang Jianming was assisted by Tang Zhen to turn off the shock, and said hoarsely: "How is it now, can you contact the fortress?"

Tang Zhen's face became even more bleak: "I have notified Chief Huo Lin, this is an abnormal situation... We are not the only ones who encountered high-level alien creatures."

"Also... and the first team. We ran into a B-class at noon today. When we sent the communication to the officer, the first team had already..."

His teeth were shaking as he spoke, and he unconsciously squeezed Jiang Jianming's arm with his fingers, "It's... the whole team has been wiped out."

Jiang Jianming: "...!"

"Officer Huo Lin asked us to find a way to hold on..." Tang Zhen closed his eyes as he said, as if he saw blood flowing into rivers and broken limbs on the opposite side of the projection.

Lieutenant Colonel Holling, who came late, stood in a pool of blood, and Lieutenant Raymond hunched on the ground in pain.

When they said that they encountered a B-level subspecies, Tang Zhen had never seen such a pale face and gloomy eyes on this always strict lieutenant colonel.

"He said he would report to the higher authorities immediately and send someone to rescue us...but."

"But," Jiang Jianming sighed secretly, and he looked up at the path covered by the wind and snow, "No one knows when that B-level subspecies will catch up, right?"

Tang Zhen stopped talking, and the two walked up to Xuejiu.

Bemaner was lying in Xuejiu's treatment cabin, her eyes were closed tightly, her cheeks had a strange bluish-gray color, and she had fallen into a coma.

Looking further down, the girl's right calf has turned purple-black, and has more than doubled in size. The wound caused by the spider silk has been cleaned by the equipment in the treatment cabin, but the hideous rolled flesh is still shocking.Even broken bones can be seen.

Jiang Jian Mingguang glanced at it, and his eyes sank.He turned his head and waved: "Someone else, first unload the entire treatment cabin and move it into the tent."

Li Youfang walked over quickly, and together with Tang Zhen, they used crystal bones to move the treatment cabin into the tent.

The tent isolated the wind and snow, Ellie and Joe were already sitting inside, the former was sobbing and crying with his head buried in his knees; the latter seemed to have lost his soul, with a dull expression like a puppet.

Who would have thought that... things would turn out like this?

The distant interstellar space is a battlefield of life and death, and the Silver Beidou Army is a bloody warrior... Everyone knows the truth, and everyone can recite it back and forth.

They even knew that every year there would be rookie officers during the adaptation period who died before they officially went to the battlefield; they all thought they were the ones who had made up their minds.

But when the crisis suddenly appears and death is really coming, who can stand still in the face of fear?

Half a minute later, Jiang Jianming came in with his combat bag.He walked over, opened the transparent cover of the treatment cabin, and took another look at Bemaner's injured leg.

The black-haired young man closed his eyes for a moment, and said in a calm tone, "The poison has gone too deep...I need amputation."

When he said those words, the air in the tent froze instantly.

The surroundings seemed to be colder than the snowy outside, and at the same time, darkness was darker than the outside.

"You said... what!?" Ellie raised her tear-stained face in a daze, and she stumbled, "I want to cut...cut..."

Tang Zhen bounced up suddenly, his eyes were bloodshot and he shouted: "——No!!"

But as soon as he roared, his momentum disappeared.

"Xiao Jiang, no...it really won't work, let's think of a way..."

Tang Zhen's expression was so distorted that he was about to cry, and he said tremblingly, "Look, the data in the treatment cabin shows that her vital signs are still stable, and it hasn't reached that level..."

Jiang Jianming took out the dagger from the combat bag.

Tang Zhen rushed up to hold his hand, and said hoarsely: "Isn't Xuejiu's treatment cabin still able to supply energy? Can't we just let her lie like this, Xiao Jiang, I beg you..."

"No." Jiang Jianming snapped off Tang Zhen's fingers and whispered, "This ghost-faced spider is a subspecies, and Xuejiu's medical system can't detoxify it. And... Xuejiu's energy is not enoughIf there are too many, if the energy source is cut off, it will be too late for anything.”

"Then go back to the fortress!!"

Tang Zhen roared, but his eyes were a little wet, and his lips trembled more and more, "There are more comprehensive medical facilities and professional medical care in the fortress. What is the poison of a B-level subspecies!? Let's go now,As long as she can hurry back, she won't have to break a leg!!"

In the end, he was already roaring out of vent.

Several people turned their eyes sideways, with sad expressions on their faces.

...Leave now?The B-level subspecies was right ahead, and they were exhausted all by themselves. How could they walk in such a heavy snowstorm?

"No one can move now."

Jiang Jianming said coldly, "Tang Zhen, calm down."

"You're the one who can't walk!!" Tang Zhenhong's eyes widened, he grabbed Jiang Jianming's collar, and raised his fist, "Who says I can't walk, I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, tears began to flow down his face.

The corner of Tang Zhen's mouth twitched, and the palm that was holding Jiang Jianming released, covering his eyes.

After a long time, he sobbed: "If I hadn't insisted on coming to Yinbeidou...she just wanted to follow me, she just..."

Jiang Jianming sighed softly, his eyelashes drooped softly, and there was a little pity in his eyes.

But his hand holding the dagger didn't even tremble from the beginning to the end.

"I'm starting, if you can't take it... just turn around."

...

At the same time, when the night was covered with heavy snow.

Silver Beidou First Fortress.

The emergency meeting was over, and there were chaotic footsteps and shouts from the corridor outside the door, and light leaked in through the cracks in the door and windows.

Only the major general sitting in the innermost seat of the meeting room still propped his forehead with five fingers, burying himself in the darkness.

He hung up the headset, and the wrist phone flickered on his bent wrist, indicating that he was talking to someone.

At a certain moment, the major general raised his face and spoke quickly in a low voice:

"Your Highness... Your Highness Garcia?"

"I'm Xie Yuduo, are you in the wild area now? What type of mecha are you driving?"

An indifferent voice came from the headset:

"Tell me something."

Major General Xie was used to His Highness's cold and arrogant attitude, so he spoke faster: "Urgent and abnormal situation, Your Highness. Several high-level alien creatures suddenly appeared in the low-risk area. We are instructing those who go out to withdraw from the fortress, but today is just a time to adapt to the situation."During the training days for military officers, the children bumped into each other..."

"One team has already been wiped out, and two teams are trapped in the snow-capped mountains. It's too late to rush over from the fortress, so I have to ask His Highness for help. Look, can you go?"

The other side of the headset was silent for a few seconds, and there seemed to be the sound of mech whistling, Garcia said: "Got it."

Major General Xie breathed a sigh of relief.

As far as he understood His Highness, the meaning of "Got it" can basically be equated with "Leave it to me, you bastards don't interfere".

Xie Yuduo: "I'll send you the location coordinates immediately. The fifth team is not in danger for the time being, but it's too deep, and we won't be able to return for a while. We are worried that we will run into high-ranking officers if we walk around carelessly. Let them stand by."

"And the third team... In their report, they claimed to have encountered a B-level subspecies."

Speaking of this, Major General Xie paused bitterly, "I know the hope is slim, but after all, there are a few young lives, I still hope that you can... take a look."

Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "This is not necessarily true."

"Ordinary officers in the adaptation period, the entire team would have been wiped out long ago when encountering a B-level subspecies. Since they can still contact the fortress alive..."

...

In a corner of the night sky far away from the fortress, a mech as black as steel is stretching out its slender wings and turning around quickly.

A mountain of corpses of alien creatures and a sea of blood remained, as well as crimson true crystal clusters that slowly dissipated and disappeared.

In the cockpit, Prince Garcia unhurriedly picked up the headband from his hand, tied the long hair scattered on his shoulders behind his head, and fastened the buttons.

The headset was flickering, and he slightly curled his lips: "It may be an acquaintance."

The author has something to say: Your Highness: If you accept my apples, you will be mine.
