穆溫站在軌道電梯底層航廈的露臺上，用欄杆邊的天文望遠鏡觀察高空。透過濾光片，繁星背景前方明顯可見大量船隻陰影。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7UGr8hq69

自從收到克洛維斯的防禦指示已經將近三天，他的陣地仍然沒有敵襲跡象。穆溫離開望遠鏡，在衛隊注視之下來回踱步。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXVTLSLkxW

「增加收割者的巡邏數量確實有效，雖然會影響『出貨』……不過，有幾隻『斷線』時間太過接近……為什麼，益扈又要刻意關閉『共感知』呢？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpVPlZJqR8

日正當中，軌道電梯被沙漠驅逐艦、氣墊艇、量產機兵所圍繞。守備固若金湯，就是那些異常巧合使人心神不寧。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh8lTJq36n

傳令兵敬禮跑開。穆溫回過頭，壓低望遠鏡，對遠方的沙丘看去。蒸騰熱氣之中，龐大的鋼鐵巨獸緩步爬出稜線。前線士官高舉佩刀，迫擊砲的轟鳴隨即震撼耳膜。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekDqmf0SKm

人工島嶼的腳邊揚起煙塵，厚重鐵皮毫髮無傷。數名複製兵衝出掩體，以紅外線發射器引導友軍。不出幾秒，從天而降的濃密火雨就掃過巨獸前足關節，使它失衡歪斜。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzYzFLpfx3
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXMvfIzGWN

巨獸背部竄出的黑雲遮天蓋日，猶如古代蝗害，向軌道電梯的基座猛攻而來。露臺上的防彈夾層升起，穆溫及護衛紛紛躲回室內，未能看清楚鳥群中的月輪翔翼與地平線截擊。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot39jthfvp

穿梭機射出八根鏢箭，繞著自身旋轉，形成粒子護罩，讓它不畏火網帶頭衝鋒，以電漿炮連續突破防線。月輪翔翼與直線推進的雪星機甲錯開，呈之字形飄移擾敵，並用導引飛彈提供掩護。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHofOIFWT7L
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXY5BE8SsD
面對兩機強攻，穆溫下令無視友軍大範圍轟炸。彈雨在穿梭機四周不斷著地，激起陣陣爆炎、黃砂，還有鋼鐵屍塊。經過幾輪砲擊，它就消失在濃煙下方。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXqr3b2qqS

穆溫丟下一句「死守本陣」就揮袖離開。一輛懸浮載具沿著高架道路駛出航廈，遠離沙暴席捲的戰場。複製士兵毫不質疑，也不能質疑，只能順從天性，聽命行事。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfverx67QaA

伸手不見五指的前線中，頭頂巨角的機影高速掠過守軍部隊。地平線截擊轉換為鬥士型態，扛著一艘氣墊艇抵擋砲火，同時左右滑行，所經之處只留下兩道軌跡，還有無數被高溫熔斷的金屬殘骸。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeZGnw7Aqz

受到光線引導，收割者們集中盤旋，幫巨獸抵擋高空火雨。少了阻力，人工島更是加速跨步前進，踩扁戰艦、踢開機甲，整隻撞進軌道電梯地面航廈。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmGSjneHSl

衝擊波橫掃沙海。高塔表面的凝霜紛紛崩解，有如雪花落入戰場。當帝國軍重整態勢，準備包夾爬行巢時，地平線截擊和月輪翔翼已經闖進破口內部，順著電梯路線垂直飛升。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULUvNd30J5

視野瞬間模糊，接著是襲向全身的劇痛。大將軍在顛倒的車廂內翻滾了好幾圈，聽著柏油路面在耳邊高聲摩擦，好幾秒才停止。回過神來，他發現自己趴在碎玻璃上，恍惚地舉起雙手尋找眼鏡。扭曲的窗框外頭，一隻收割者正往他步步接近。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgfhsVxUlk

穆溫拼命掙扎，好不容易鑽出車外，那隻巨鳥的電子複眼已經近在呎尺。當他咬緊牙關，準備體驗商品被吞食的感覺時，收割者卻突然縮回頭部，有如著魔般渾身顫抖，最終不支倒地。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEYMOtEnEn

翼尖在壁面擦出火花，妮瓦趕緊調整角度。越來越多「聲音」藉由干擾波侵入齊波尼亞腦海。雖然沒聽懂內容，但能確定的是，那些令人發寒的意念都來自南極。從舒適的皇都漫溢而出，操弄著這個星球。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiIYDctle5

薩邁爾的叫喚讓少年回到現實。地平線截擊轟破高塔最後一道閘門，變換成鬥士型態，停在廣闊空間中央。月輪翔翼隨後飛出，與友機背對著背，面對環繞它們的複雜裝置。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VssdMnsPX

齊波尼亞嚥下苦悶，與薩邁爾心有靈犀地扣住扳機。兩機背對彼此迴轉開火，釋放所有炮彈，將視線所及之處破壞殆盡。烈焰吞噬了一切惡意。咒罵聲、哭泣聲，孩童的嘻笑，都隨著空氣被吸入宇宙，不再響起。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfVQv4DAuy

從高塔頂端擴散的火柱像是花瓣，遙望地球的聯軍本隊都能看見。月輪翔翼與地平線截擊纏著黑煙，飛出崩壞的側壁，任由重力拉扯墜落。干擾波漸漸消退，蛾飛火也失去動力，沒有追擊立下大功的兩台機甲。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9kDeYZveV
