Chapter Index

    “Bastards!”

    Zhang Yi and the others were instantly enraged. They hadn’t expected the enemy to even eliminate their own people.

    In that single blow, they directly lost thirty-two Iron Guards, and over fifty were incapacitated!

    “Don’t panic! One group, go rescue the incapacitated team members!”

    Su Ming calmly gave the order.

    “Yes!”

    Zhang Yi and the others gritted their teeth and responded.

    “Rhine!”

    Su Ming then called out in the communication channel.

    “Here!”

    “Cover me!”

    “Understood!”

    Upon receiving Su Ming’s order, Rhine immediately pushed the power control lever to its limit, fiercely attacking the heavily damaged Grey Dove.

    The Grey Dove Mecha in front of him fought back desperately, swinging its beam saber at Rhine.

    Rhine faced the attack without dodging, directly activating its GN Field!

    Crack!

    The Grey Dove’s beam saber struck the GN Field, sending particle sparks flying.

    At this moment, Rhine swung his beam saber, savagely striking the Grey Dove’s mecha body.

    Crack!

    The entire Grey Dove Mecha was cut open, and a huge explosion swept out.

    “First Squadron, follow me!”

    After killing his opponent, Rhine immediately gave the order.

    “Yes!”

    Groups of mechas quickly gathered behind Rhine.

    At this time, inside the Slayer’s cockpit.

    Su Ming’s eyes instantly turned cold. He pushed the power control lever to its limit, and the Slayer’s power unit let out a beast-like roar.

    Whoosh!

    The entire mecha shot towards the DX-06 Defense Outpost like a meteor.

    Rhine led his troops closely behind.

    At this moment, the Water Snake Legion’s Iron Disciple mechas charged up recklessly, attempting to block Su Ming’s advance.

    Crack!

    The Slayer swept past like a streak of light, and the blocking Iron Disciple mechas exploded with a roar.

    However, more and more mechas from the Water Snake Legion swarmed forward.

    Rhine and the others fired beams of light, destroying the swarming mechas one by one.

    Under the cover of Rhine and the others, Su Ming, like a sharp knife, continuously advanced.

    Inside the D Central Control Room.

    The Operator reported to Setu in terror.

    “Commander, the enemy has broken through!”

    “Turn all turrets and unleash missiles to destroy him!”

    Setu also gave the order in panic.

    “Understood!”

    The Operator immediately carried out the operation.

    At this moment, all turrets of the DX-06 Defense Outpost turned to face Su Ming, firing beams of light and a sky full of missiles.

    Facing the overwhelming attack, Su Ming activated his GN Field and accelerated, charging straight through.

    Sizzle, sizzle!

    Beams of light hit the GN Field, scattering sparks.

    Missiles were dodged, exploding loudly behind him.

    Inside the Central Control Room.

    Many Operators, seeing that the attack was ineffective, shouted in extreme fear.

    “Commander, attack ineffective!”

    “Quick! Activate the energy shield and recharge the NXS-01 Red Magnetic Railgun!”

    Setu shouted with a trembling voice.

    As Setu’s order was given, the DX-06 Defense Outpost quickly activated its energy shield, and then the U-shaped main cannon began to recharge again, flashing with red lightning arcs.

    At this moment, Su Ming controlled the Slayer to the space in front of the DX-06 Defense Outpost. He lowered the particle beam cannon and fired a shot.

    Boom!

    The particle beam struck the energy shield, and a huge explosion swept out.

    The entire shield shook violently.

    Su Ming controlled the Slayer to accelerate a second time and charged forward.

    The Slayer was like a black streak of light, slamming fiercely into the energy shield.

    Boom!

    In an instant, the DX-06 Defense Outpost’s energy shield violently twisted.

    Su Ming gave the order without hesitation.

    “Concentrate fire!”

    “Yes!”

    Rhine and the others charged forward, firing dense beams of light at the twisted energy shield.

    Rumble!

    Countless fireworks exploded.

    Crack!

    The DX-06 Defense Outpost’s energy shield instantly shattered.

    Su Ming quickly input commands, activated the scanning device, and directly scanned the overall structure of the DX-06 Defense Outpost.

    The location of the DX-06 Defense Outpost’s Central Control Room was immediately marked.

    Su Ming controlled the Slayer to land on top of the Central Control Room, swinging his particle light blade, striking the surface armor layer twice!

    Crack!

    As the armor layer was breached, a large hole was directly torn open in the top of the Central Control Room!

    “Ah~”

    The people inside the Central Control Room were, like trash, sucked out into space by the huge pressure difference.

    Su Ming controlled his mecha to land inside the Central Control Room, swung his particle light blade, and split the control panel in half with one strike!

    All the firepower devices of the entire DX-06 Defense Outpost immediately shut down.

    At this moment, in the public communication channel, Deng Yu and the others shouted with extreme excitement.

    “The outpost has been breached! Kill them!”

    “Take them down!”

    Soldiers cheered excitedly.

    They controlled their Iron Guards and charged forward desperately.

    Rumble~

    One by one, the Water Snake Legion’s fighters and mechas were blown up.

    “Ah~”

    “The base has been breached! Run!”

    Some Water Snake Legion soldiers, terrified, controlled their mechas to flee.

    The remaining soldiers still fighting, seeing their comrades flee, immediately lost their will and followed suit.

    In an instant, the remaining Water Snake Legion dispersed.

    “Commander, the enemy is fleeing. Should we pursue?”

    Deng Yu and the others reported in the communication channel.

    “Do not pursue a fleeing enemy!”

    Su Ming directly vetoed it.

    “Alright, what should we do now?”

    Rhine and the others asked in the communication channel.

    Su Ming’s eyes flickered, and he immediately said.

    “Clear out all remaining Water Snake personnel in this defense outpost, leave no one behind! Also, do not damage the main cannon of this base.”

    “Commander, you want to keep this main cannon?”

    “Exactly, this main cannon is quite powerful, it will be useful against the subsequent Gray Gun Legion!”

    “But wasn’t the main control room destroyed by you? We don’t know how to repair it, do we?”

    Rhine reminded him with some difficulty.

    “Apply to the higher-ups for mechanical engineers, and have them come here to repair it.”

    Su Ming replied simply.

    “Alright!”

    Rhine then responded.

    Outside the DX-05 Defense Outpost.

    Hegas controlled a Third Generation Mecha, Splinterbone, which stood twenty meters tall, covered in thick, heavy grey metal armor, with a large-caliber cannon barrel embedded in its left shoulder, four large-caliber thrusters protruding from its back, and wielding a heavy alloy greatblade.

    He swung the heavy metal greatblade in his hand, splitting a Beast Tooth mecha in half with one blow, and excitedly shouted in the communication channel.

    “Charge with me, take out these scumbags!”

    “Yes!”

    One by one, soldiers bravely followed Hegas, charging into the defense outpost.

    The Water Snake Legion defending here retreated steadily, and triangular metal fortresses were destroyed one by one!

    Just then, the DX-05 Defense Outpost’s NXS-01 Red Magnetic Railgun flashed with terrifying red lightning.

    “Watch out!”

    Hugh Eun was the first to detect the danger and issued a warning.

    Everyone quickly maneuvered their mechas to dodge!

    A terrifying red electromagnetic beam shot out, and mechas were blown up one by one.

    Hegas saw this scene, his eyes bloodshot, and roared.

    “Kill with me!”

    At this moment, in the star space directly in front of the Transfer Star.

    The Level 5 Battleship, Tsar, leading the Twin Battleship, directly engaged the Water Snake Legion’s fleet in a head-on confrontation.

    A Level 5 Battleship, Water Snake, 260 kilometers long, with a slender main cannon protruding from its bow, a bulky hull covered in green armor, densely packed with numerous launch ports and interceptor cannons, bravely led a massive fleet forward.

    Both sides continuously unleashed dense missiles and beams.

    Then the Water Snake’s Battleship launched its first attack!

    A dazzling green beam shot directly at the Tsar.

    At this moment, the Level 5 Battleship, liet yang, and the Level 5 Battleship, silver moon, two battleships, directly blocked in front of the Tsar, simultaneously activating their energy shields.

    Their deployed energy shields directly merged into one single energy shield!

    Boom!

    The green beam struck the energy shield, exploding loudly, and the entire energy shield only shook for a moment before quickly returning to normal.

    Inside the Tsar Battleship’s Central Control Room.

    Operators reported to Major General Vickers one by one.

    “The Twin Battleship successfully withstood the Water Snake’s attack. Energy shield strength decreased by twenty-three percent.”

    “Order the Twin Battleship to launch a combined attack and sink it!”

    Vickers gave the order without hesitation.

    “Issuing command now!”

    “Synchronizing Twin Battleship combat data, main cannon charging progress eighty-nine percent.”

    “Report, enemy battleship is retreating, surrounding Level 4 Battleships are moving forward, acting as shields!”

    Operators reported one by one.

    “A bunch of small fry trying to get in the way! Order all ships to concentrate fire and destroy those obstructing Level 4 Battleships!”

    Vickers gave the order without question.

    “Yes!”

    As the order was given.

    Crack!

    Numerous Level 4 Battleships led by the Tsar opened many launch ports.

    A dense barrage of missiles shot out.

    Rumble!

    The Level 4 Battleships of the Water Snake Legion that moved forward were instantly covered by saturation firepower.

    Ship after ship was heavily damaged.

    At this moment, the Twin Battleship’s main cannon finished charging, firing two dazzling beams, one white and one black, one after another.

    Bang!

    The white beam was the first to hit the Water Snake’s energy shield.

    This beam did not cause a violent explosion upon impact; instead, it emitted a dazzling white light, directly disintegrating the enemy’s energy shield.

    Immediately after, the black beam hit the Water Snake directly, penetrating the thick armor layer of its bow.

    Boom!

    A huge explosion swept out.

    The Water Snake Battleship was heavily damaged in an instant.

    “Target hit! Water Snake’s bow is twenty-seven percent damaged, combat capability lost!”

    The Operator reported excitedly.

    “Well done!”

    Vickers was very satisfied with this result. As expected of the Twin Battleship, its combat power was indeed formidable.

    In fact, these two battleships were pulled from the personal guard fleet of City Lord Faraon of Sky Dome City, and they were new ships that had been in service for less than a year.

    At this moment, subordinates reported one by one.

    “Report: DX-01 Defense Outpost taken!”

    “Report: DX-06 Defense Outpost taken!”

    Upon hearing this, Vickers asked in a deep voice.

    “How are the other mecha teams doing?”

    “Very smoothly, the Water Snake Legion is no match for them, but…”

    The Operator hesitated halfway through his report.

    “But what?”

    “The Water Snake Legion’s various defense outposts have deployed a large number of defensive weapons, including an NXS-01 Red Magnetic Railgun, which is very powerful and has caused a certain number of casualties. So far, most of the casualties reported by the various teams were caused by defensive weapons.”

    “I understand. There’s nothing that can be done about it. Historically, defenders always have an advantage. Fixed weapons, though clumsy, have serious firepower.”

    Vickers was quite open-minded.

    “The General is right.”

    “Have all mecha teams quickly take down all defense outposts, then rest and prepare to engage the Gray Gun Legion.”

    “Command has been issued. Also, Major Su Ming sent a message requesting that a group of mechanical engineers be dispatched to the DX-06 Defense Outpost for repair work!”

    The Operator continued to report.

    “Approved!”

    Main battlefield area.

    The massive Star Radiance Fortress continuously moved towards the Planetary Fortress, Hams.

    Along the way, the Star Radiance Fortress continuously opened its launch ports, moved its dark cannon barrels, locked onto various defense outposts and outposts, and poured out dense firepower!

    Rumble!

    Defense outposts were blown up one by one instantly.

    The Star Radiance Fortress, like a behemoth, brutally destroyed all obstructing enemies.

    At this moment, inside the Planetary Fortress, Hams’s Central Control Room.

    Teddyra sat directly in the command chair, and beside him sat a young man wearing a Fourth Generation Exoskeleton, with a gloomy expression, prominent cheekbones, and exuding a strong aura.

    This man was none other than Hors, a member of the Dark Star Empire’s Royal Knights.

    At this moment, Operators reported nervously one by one.

    “Report: The Star Radiance Fortress is closing in. Estimated contact with Hams Fortress in twenty-three minutes and forty-six seconds!”

    “How many mecha groups and fleets did the enemy bring?”

    Teddyra snorted coldly and asked.

    “Report, no mecha groups or warships detected. The enemy’s previously released fleet and mecha groups are currently attacking the Water Snake Legion.”

    “You mean they came alone?”

    “Yes!”

    The Operator replied with certainty.

    “Good, excellent! Since they’re so reckless, today I’ll make Star Radiance Fortress sink here and avenge the Imperial Army’s fallen soldiers!”

    Teddyra’s cruel smile instantly appeared.

    Although Star Radiance Fortress was powerful, rushing straight over without bringing anything else was, in his eyes, a death wish.

    “Don’t be careless!”

    Hors said coldly.

    “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Immediately order General Asud to lead the mecha group into battle, and at the same time, the main cannon should begin charging.”

    Teddyra directly appointed his trusted General.

    “Yes, the order is being issued.”

    Inside Star Radiance Fortress.

    “Defense point number 2322 removed!”

    “Approaching Hams Planetary Fortress, estimated contact in fourteen minutes and thirty-two seconds.”

    The Operator reported methodically.

    At this moment, a prompt popped up on the holographic screen.

    “Alert: Hams Planetary Fortress is releasing mecha groups.”

    The Purple-haired girl saw this and calmly issued an order.

    “Activate the optical imaging device and display the visuals.”

    “Yes!”

    The Operator immediately issued the command.

    Instantly, a grid image popped up, displaying the real-time image of Hams Planetary Fortress.

    The image continuously zoomed in, and everyone could clearly see Hams Planetary Fortress opening countless exits.

    Groups of Third Generation Mecha, Eagle Falcon, and Second Generation Mecha, Grey Falcon, flew out.

    These flying mechas formed a square formation in the starry sky in front of the fortress.

    Following closely, a thirty-meter-tall Four-Generation Mecha, Corvus, covered in black armor, with a particle cannon embedded in its shoulder, holding two black particle light swords, two pairs of black mechanical wings embedded in its back, and a red moon and two black stars painted on its chest, flew out, followed by two Four-Generation Mecha, Blood Falcon.

    At this moment, near Hams Planetary Fortress, one square mechanical fortress after another moved over, forming a defensive formation.

    At the same time, a large number of starfighters flew out from Hams Planetary Fortress.

    Following that, numerous launch ports on the surface of Hams Planet opened, and countless cannon barrels extended out, instantly transforming the entire Planetary Fortress into a sea urchin shape.

    Major General Jon saw this and calmly said.

    “Legion Commander, the enemy is preparing to confront us head-on.”

    “Crush them!”

    The Purple-haired girl replied coldly.

    “Load launch ports 1-100 W!”

    Major General Jon then issued the command.

    “Loading now!”

    The Operator immediately replied.

    Everyone stared at the countdown displayed on the operation screen, and the moment the timer reached zero.

    Hams Planetary Fortress and Star Radiance Fortress simultaneously opened their dense launch ports.

    Whoosh!

    Groups of missiles shot out from Hams Planetary Fortress, striking towards Star Radiance Fortress from the center of the mecha formation.

    As a result, they collided with the missiles pouring out from Star Radiance Fortress in the starry sky in between.

    Boom! Boom! Boom! ~

    Countless brilliant fireworks bloomed, illuminating the entire dark starry sky as if it were daytime.

    However, the firepower of Star Radiance Fortress was far greater than that of Hams Planetary Fortress. Missiles penetrated through the explosions, striking towards the Black Crow Legion’s mecha formation.

    At this moment, Asud, piloting the Four-Generation Mecha, Corvus, saw this and shouted in alarm over the communication channel.

    “Dodge, fire!”

    He hadn’t expected Hams Planetary Fortress to lose the exchange.

    Numerous mechas fiercely opened fire on the incoming missiles.

    But the number of incoming missiles was simply too great.

    Boom! Boom! Boom! ~

    One Grey Falcon mecha after another was hit by missiles.

    However, the nightmare was not over; a sky full of light beams rained down.

    Numerous mechas were blown apart by the dense light beams!

    After one wave of bombardment, the Black Crow Legion’s mecha formation was severely damaged, with nearly half of its mechas and fighters destroyed.

    Numerous defensive fortresses were also mercilessly annihilated.

    Inside Hams Planetary Central Control Room.

    Teddyra saw this, slammed a hand on the armrest, stood up abruptly, and roared in extreme anger.

    “Bastard!”

    “Commander, the enemy’s firepower is so fierce, what should we do? Our mecha formation has suffered heavy losses!”

    “Damn it, you really think I have no way to deal with you. I’ll let you taste my power! My order: release KDS-01 Type Suicide Drone, Dark Spear!”

    “Yes!”

    The Operator immediately responded.

    At this moment, Hams Planetary Fortress opened numerous ejection ports on its surface.

    KDS-01 Type Suicide Drone, Dark Spear, in the shape of black metal cones with slender wings extending from both sides, swarmed out like locusts, numbering in the hundreds of thousands.

    These KDS-01 Type Suicide Drone, Dark Spear, rushed towards the approaching Star Radiance Fortress at extremely high speed.

    On the screen of Star Radiance Fortress, red warning boxes popped up one after another.

    “Warning: KDS-01 Type Suicide Drone swarm detected.”

    “Legion Commander, the enemy is releasing penetrating suicide drones.”

    Jon said, his brow tightly furrowed.

    The Purple-haired girl looked at this scene, her expression very calm. She simply raised her hand and waved, summoning a virtual operation interface projection.

    She lightly tapped the operation interface, and the image of Dr. Blacks, wearing a white coat, black glasses, and with indifferent eyes, appeared before the Purple-haired girl.

    “Are you ready?”

    The Purple-haired girl asked coldly.

    “Artificial Intelligence – Ceres, has finished loading.”

    Blacks replied expressionlessly.

    “Then let’s begin. Activate Weapon: Eye of Illusion!”

    The Purple-haired girl issued the command coldly.

    “Understood.”

    Blacks responded without a ripple of emotion.

    At this moment, a huge opening cracked on the surface of Star Radiance Fortress, followed by a mechanical eye, like that of a spirit, revealing itself.

    The entire mechanical eye flickered with red lightning arcs, glowing with a dazzling red halo.

    In an instant, the KDS-01 Type Suicide Drone, Dark Spear, which had been swarming like locusts, all lost their signal connection with Hams Fortress.

    Hams Planetary Fortress Central Control Room.

    The operation screen was like it had a virus, popping up countless red warning boxes.

    “Drone number 1331 Dark Spear, lost signal connection!”

    Before Teddyra could react to what was happening.

    All those suicide drones turned around and headed towards their own mecha formation!

    Asud was stunned when he saw this. Before he could react to what was happening, more than a dozen suicide drones crashed towards him.

    He quickly activated his energy shield!

    Boom! Boom! Boom!

    One suicide drone after another crashed into the energy shield and exploded.

    The Four-Generation Mecha’s energy shield could withstand it, but the Second Generation Mecha simply couldn’t.

    These suicide drones were all penetrating self-destruct types; if hit directly and exploded, they would either die or be crippled.

    The already heavily damaged mecha formation immediately suffered a devastating blow.

    “How could this happen? Isn’t this the ability of the Mechanical Clan? How did the Federation do it?”

    Deputy Legion Commander Teddyra stared at the scene before him, his eyes nearly popping out. To this moment, he still didn’t understand what was happening.

    The Federation had actually used the Mechanical Clan’s counter-control to seize control of all the suicide drones and turn them against them.

    At this moment, a subordinate said tremblingly.

    “Lord Teddyra, the main cannon is fully charged!”

    Teddyra snapped back to reality upon hearing this and roared hysterically.

    “Lock onto Star Radiance Fortress!”

    “Lock successful!”

    “Fire! Destroy it!”

    “Yes!”

    In the starry sky, Hams Fortress opened a huge gap, and violent red lightning glowed within.

    This fortress’s main cannon was different from other fortresses; its design featured a recessed launch port.

    Inside Star Radiance Fortress Command Room.

    The Operator reported nervously.

    “We’ve been locked onto by the enemy’s main cannon!”

    “Ignore it, leave it to Artificial Intelligence – Ceres!”

    The Purple-haired girl replied coldly.

    As soon as her voice fell.

    Everyone’s operation screens automatically generated code, and lines of commands popped up.

    “Launch port 4221 open!”

    “Launch port 4222 open!”

    In an instant, countless launch ports opened on the surface of Star Radiance Fortress.

    Whoosh!

    Countless black mechanical octopuses swarmed out, gathering in front of Star Radiance Fortress.

    At this moment, Hams Planetary Fortress’s main cannon fired.

    A beam of light, flickering with red lightning arcs, shot out, streaking across the starry sky towards Star Radiance Fortress.

    At this moment, the tentacles of the gathered mechanical octopuses intertwined, their heads split open, revealing a spherical crystal. They then simultaneously lit up, instantly deploying an energy shield!

    Boom!

    The beam of light, flickering with red lightning arcs, struck it, and a gigantic sun rose with a roar.

    However, unfortunately, such a powerful attack was still blocked by the barrier formed by the mechanical octopuses.

    “Successfully blocked the enemy’s main cannon attack!”

    “Star Radiance Fortress main cannon fully charged!”

    Major General Jon then reported.

    “Attack!”

    The Purple-haired girl gave the order without a trace of hesitation.

    As the order was issued, Star Radiance Fortress extended an ultra-long blue metal cone, and the entire metal cone flickered with blue lightning arcs, its light growing increasingly dazzling.

    Finally, a blue light beam shot out, cutting through the dark deep space.

    Boom!

    Hams Planetary Fortress was instantly hit!

    A blue sun rose with a roar.

    The entire fortress vibrated violently. Inside the Central Control Room, Teddyra couldn’t sit still and almost fell out of his command chair.

    This fortress of his was primarily used for transit, and its size was much larger than Blood Prism Fortress, so it didn’t have an energy shield device, only reinforced outer armor.

    This single blow directly dealt it a heavy blow.

    Inside the Huracan Kingdom, Transit Star Central Control Room.

    A rather old man, with some white hair, a face full of scars, and fierce eyes, stared intently at the operation screen.

    Through the dynamic information displayed on the screen, it could be seen that the fleet led by Tsar was advancing rapidly, approaching the Transit Star. Their proud silver moon had been sunk.

    “What should we do, Lord Pisa In? The enemy is coming to kill us.”

    A subordinate beside him anxiously asked the Legion Commander of the Water Snake Legion.

    “Call for reinforcements! Didn’t I tell you to immediately call for reinforcements? Haven’t you connected the communication yet?”

    Pisa In asked furiously.

    “Immediately, it’s connecting immediately!”

    The Operator replied in fear.

    Just then, a prompt popped up on the operation screen.

    “Information communication link successful”

    Whoosh!

    Three image frames appeared. The leftmost one showed a tall, muscular, bronze-skinned middle-aged man.

    This man was the Legion Commander of the Rock Corps, Sultan.

    The image in the middle showed a man wearing red Four-Generation Mecha armor, with graying hair, a broad forehead, and sharp eyes.

    This man was Deputy Legion Commander General Baitefa of the Dark Star Empire’s Third Scarlet Fangs Legion.

    The image on the right showed a tall, upright middle-aged man with short black hair and sharp eyes.

    This man was the Legion Commander of the Gray Gun Legion, Ceruka.

    “General Baitefa, I’ve finally reached you!”

    Pisa In exclaimed in surprise.

    “What happened?”

    General Baitefa asked calmly.

    “Federal forces launched a surprise attack on Hams Planetary Fortress and the entire transit zone. We can’t hold on much longer!”

    Pisa In reported with extreme anxiety.

    “How is that possible? How did they get through? Donao Star Sea has already been blockaded by us.”

    “I don’t know, maybe they took a long detour to get here.”

    “Don’t worry, I will immediately order all nearby forces to reinforce you. You must hold on!”

    General Baitefa said, his brows tightly furrowed.

    At this moment, Ceruka, the Legion Commander of the Gray Gun Legion, quickly patted his chest and declared with impassioned fervor.

    “General Baitefa, don’t worry, I’m already on my way to reinforce. And it just so happens that I’m out training today, so I’ll be able to reach the battlefield in just two more hours. Even if I have to risk my life, I will help the Empire defend Slok Star Sea!”

    “That’s right! Even if the enemy is strong, we will do our best to advance and retreat with the Empire!”

    The Rock Corps’s Legion Commander Sudan also looked like he was ready to die.

    “Very good! As expected of the Empire’s loyal partners, I will report your loyalty to the Emperor.”

    Baitfa praised with great satisfaction.

    He needed time to gather support troops to rush over. The Slok Star Sea absolutely could not have any problems; it was their supply line.

    “Thank you, Lord Baitfa!”

    Ceruka and the other person replied excitedly.

    There’s a saying that goes, ‘burying your head in hard work won’t get you ahead; the most crucial thing is to perform in front of your superiors.’

    Edge of the Donao Star Sea.

    At this moment, the Level 4 Battleship, Wind Movement, was heading towards the Slok Star Sea.

    Inside the central control room.

    Vickank sat in the command chair, propping his chin with one hand, leisurely listening to soothing music.

    Beside Vickank stood a tall woman with flaxen hair, a beautiful face, and wearing a captain’s uniform.

    At this moment, a prompt popped up on the operation screen.

    Anisa showed a hint of surprise on her face and reported, “Lord Vickank, we’ve received a communication request from General Baitfa.”

    “Turn off the music, connect!”

    Vickank immediately sat up straight and replied.

    Anisa heard Vickank’s words and immediately connected the communication.

    General Baitfa’s image immediately appeared on the screen.

    “General!”

    Vickank stood up and saluted.

    “Vickank, the Hams Planetary Fortress in the Slok Star Sea has been ambushed by the Federation. I now order you to immediately rush there for support.”

    General Baitfa directly issued the order to Vickank.

    “I understand.”

    Vickank replied with a slight change in expression.

    General Baitfa didn’t say much more to Vickank and directly cut off the communication. He needed to quickly notify the Imperial Army units operating near the Slok Star Sea.

    At this moment, Anisa, who was beside him, hesitated for a moment before speaking.

    “Lord Vickank, why don’t you refuse Baitfa’s order? Aren’t we escorting something very important?”

    “Anisa, you need to understand one thing: isn’t our escort destination the Hams Planetary Fortress? Now that the Hams Planetary Fortress is under attack, can’t we just not go?”

    “Then we can suspend the mission. Won’t supporting be too risky?”

    “Let me put it this way, if the attacking force on the Hams Planetary Fortress were a veteran Federation legion, I definitely wouldn’t go to support. But as far as I know, all of the Federation’s forces have their own Stationed defense areas, so it’s impossible for them to mobilize!”

    “Then which Federation unit launched the surprise attack?”

    Anisa asked, very confused.

    “If I’m not mistaken, this unit that launched the surprise attack should be the newly formed Thirteenth Corps of the Federation. What kind of combat strength can a newly established legion have? At most, they rely on advanced weapons and sneak attacks to gain some advantage. However, the Imperial Army’s Black Crow Legion is stationed in the Slok Star Sea, and their combat strength is not weak, so we will be fine going to support.”

    Vickank analyzed rationally.

    “Alright!”

    Although Anisa felt very uneasy, she still agreed with Vickank’s judgment.

    “My order, accelerate forward!”

    Vickank immediately issued the order.

    “Yes!”

    Anisa and the others responded in unison.

    Slok Star Sea.

    DX-06 Defense Outpost.

    Major Su Ming controlled his mecha and stood inside the central control room, where bodies floated around.

    At this moment, Zhang Yi’s voice sounded in the communication channel.

    “The inside of the defense outpost has been cleared. No one was left alive.”

    “Well done.”

    Major Su Ming replied with satisfaction. He was going to use this defense outpost next, so he absolutely couldn’t allow any survivors to cause trouble or destruction; they all had to be cleared out.

    At this moment, Anqi reported in the communication channel.

    “Commander Su, the engineering ship is here!”

    “I understand. Tell them to come to the central control room.”

    Major Su Ming simply instructed.

    “Yes!”

    Anqi immediately replied.

    Not long after, a small engineering ship flew over and connected to the defense outpost.

    Engineers in protective suits entered the defense outpost, rushing to the central control room with various tools.

    “Commander, we’re here!”

    The leader, an old man with many wrinkles on his face, said.

    “Please repair this place. We need to use the main cannon of this base for a blocking battle! You only have less than three hours!”

    Major Su Ming looked at the timer on his wrist and said.

    “No problem!”

    The old man leading the team gritted his teeth and agreed.

    “Thank you, I’ll leave this to you.”

    Major Su Ming controlled his mecha and flew out of the central control room, arriving in the outer space.

    He then issued an order in the communication channel.

    “Everyone, gather on me.”

    “Yes!”

    Rhine and the others responded solemnly.

    Soon, everyone flew their mechas in front of Major Su Ming, lining up neatly.

    Major Su Ming scanned around and said, “Our first phase of the combat mission has been completed. Although there were some unexpected changes, fortunately, the problem is not big, and the casualties are within an acceptable range. Next is to intercept the Gray Gun Legion.”

    “Commander, how are we going to intercept them?”

    “I thought about it. We can’t just charge in recklessly, as that would easily cause a large number of casualties. Therefore, I decided to adopt an ambush interception tactic!”

    “How do we do it?”

    “First, Ankajia, you lead a small team to act as scouts. Once you discover the Gray Gun Legion’s forces, report immediately.”

    “No problem.”

    Ankajia responded without any hesitation.

    “Rhine, you lead 500 people to the left wing of space to lie in ambush and await orders!”

    “Yes!”

    Rhine replied solemnly.

    “Elu, you lead 500 people to the right wing of space to lie in ambush and await orders!”

    “Yes!”

    Elu replied very firmly.

    “The rest of you, stay with me and guard the defense outpost, confronting the Gray Gun Legion head-on.”

    Major Su Ming then announced.

    His combat strategy was simple: deliver a crushing blow to the incoming enemy, and then have Rhine and Elu lead their forces to attack from both sides.

    This would create an illusion for the enemy, making them feel surrounded, and thus better breaking down their psychological defenses.

    At this moment, at the border of the Slok Star Sea and the Donao Star Sea.

    A massive fleet of ships was sailing majestically.

    This fleet was uniformly flying the flag of the Kudike Neutral Country. The leading ship was a Level 4 Battleship, Gray Gun, 40 kilometers long, with an ultra-long gray main cannon extending from its bow, a narrow and long hull, and covered entirely in gray armor.

    At this moment, inside the central control room of the Gray Gun.

    Legion Commander Ceruka sat in the command chair, constantly urging.

    “Make all ships go faster!”

    “Legion Commander, our current speed is already the fastest. If we accelerate further, the ships behind will fall out of formation.”

    A capable female officer quickly explained.

    “I understand, Donna!”

    Ceruka suppressed the agitation in his heart.

    “Lord Ceruka, I don’t quite understand why we are rushing over so quickly? What if the Imperial Army loses?”

    “What do you know? How strong can the Federation be? Their regular army has become a turtle in a jar, let alone this unit that appeared out of nowhere. Besides, it’s a rare opportunity for the Imperial Army to need us; this is our chance to perform!”

    “You are right, sir.”

    Donna quickly replied.

    Just then, an Operator reported.

    “Reporting, Commander, we’ve scanned over a hundred fleeing Water Snake Legion mechas. They’ve sent a communication request!”

    “Hmph, accept!”

    Ceruka snorted coldly and said.

    At this moment, one by one, small video communication windows popped up. The fleeing Water Snake Legion soldiers spoke as if clutching at a lifeline.

    “General, the Federation’s forces are too strong. We really can’t hold them off. Please, General, help us!”

    “Hmph, a bunch of deserters, daring to boost others’ morale and shake the army’s resolve. Wipe them all out!”

    Ceruka issued the order without hesitation.

    At this moment, the Water Snake Legion soldiers replied with faces full of horror.

    “General, you can’t kill us. We are not your troops. You have no right to kill us!”

    “No right? I will execute you in the name of the Imperial Army. Kill!”

    Ceruka domineeringly issued the order.

    “Yes!”

    Donna immediately replied.

    As the order was given, the fleet turned their muzzles and fired dense beams of light!

    Boom!

    Without any surprise, all the fleeing deserters of the Water Snake Legion were annihilated.

    “All resolved. We are about to enter the Slok Star Sea. Sir, what do we do next?”

    Donna reported to Ceruka.

    “Display the star map!”

    Ceruka ordered in a deep voice.

    Donna immediately displayed the Slok Star Map, which marked red dots indicating fallen areas.

    All this information was shared by the Water Snake Legion.

    From the star map, the Water Snake Legion was already in a precarious situation, and the Federation’s forces had already attacked the transit star.

    “My order, cut into the transit star battlefield from the flank and catch them off guard!”

    Ceruka began to arrange the combat mission.

    “Yes!”

    Donna nodded in response.

    Edge of the Slok Star Sea.

    At this moment, Ankajia, who was in charge of vigilance, led a small team, docked on a floating meteorite, shut down the power system, and activated stealth mode. Relying on reserve power, they maintained the operating system for vigilance.

    At this moment, dense red dots suddenly appeared on the edge of their scanning device.

    “Oh my goodness!”

    Ankajia’s small eyes widened instantly when he saw these red dots.

    “Captain, why are there so many enemies coming at us? And why are they so early?”

    Song Hui replied nervously.

    “What are you afraid of? With Commander Su Ming here, there’s nothing to fear!”

    “Oh, so should we go back and report now?”

    “What’s the rush? Wait until I’ve counted the enemy’s numbers. No one move!”

    Ankajia said calmly.

    He discovered that this unit was led by a Level 4 Battleship. If they rashly activated their mechas, they would definitely be scanned by the enemy.

    “Understood!”

    Song Hui and the others quickly replied.

    Ankajia patiently watched the scanning device, waiting for all enemy forces to enter his scanning range.

    Time ticked by, second by second.

    Song Hui and the others’ hearts were in their throats.

    At this moment, Ankajia saw more and more red dots appearing on the scanning device, and he was also a bit tense.

    The number was simply too great, too many to count, and the enemy was already close to entering the safe distance.

    Ankajia decisively issued the order.

    “I’ll count down 5 seconds, then we all activate our power systems and retreat!”

    “Yes!”

    Song Hui and the others immediately responded.

    “5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Go!”

    Ankajia suddenly activated his power system and controlled his mecha to fly backward.

    Song Hui and the others followed suit.

    Level 4 Battleship, Kaba, Central Control Room.

    An Operator reported to a middle-aged man with a beard and deep-set eyes.

    “Lord Dortu Er, we’ve scanned enemy scouts. Should we send troops to pursue them?”

    “It’s fine, it won’t have much impact. With so many troops we have, can the other side really turn the tide?”

    Dortu Er replied with great confidence.

    “Yes!”

    All the subordinates present responded in unison.
