Chapter 437 Cross (Five in One)

At this moment, Evelyn saw another group of her subordinates being wiped out, and anger surged in her heart as she cursed.

“Bastard!”

She controlled the You Ling Messenger to go full power, transforming into a streak of light, and charged directly towards Aeto.

“Haha, I love it when you’re angry!”

Aeto looked at the charging Evelyn, laughed loudly, and activated the concealed beam cannon on his left arm.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Beams of dazzling white light cut through the starry sky and shot towards Evelyn.

Evelyn precisely dodged them by controlling her mecha.

Streaks of light brushed past the Roaming Spirit Mecha.

Aeto frowned slightly, then closed the unfolded Dawn Spear. The entire mecha erupted with a special halo, instantly transforming into three figures that attacked Evelyn from different directions.

Evelyn was also startled. She raised the Super Particle Light Blade in her hand and slashed at the Aeto attacking from the right, but her blade met empty air.

“Not good!”

Evelyn’s expression immediately changed slightly.

“Honey, you made the wrong judgment, now accept your punishment!”

Aeto controlled the Dawn Knight to appear on Evelyn’s left, and a fierce spear thrust pierced through.

At this moment, a Super Particle Light Blade slashed over instantly!

Crack!

The Dawn Spear was instantly cut open.

Aeto turned his head and saw the Red Angel closing in instantly.

At this moment, Su Ming spoke on the public channel.

“Did you forget about me? That’s very impolite.”

“Who are you?”

Aeto was greatly startled, then pulled back his spear and swept it towards Su Ming.

However, Su Ming directly anticipated the attack and raised his left hand’s Super Particle Light Blade to block!

Crack!

Along with splashing light particles, the Dawn Spear was blocked.

“For a narcissistic person like you, you’re not qualified to know my name.”

Su Ming replied calmly.

“Very well, you’ve successfully angered me!”

Aeto controlled the Dawn Knight to surge forward towards Su Ming, swinging the Dawn Spear in his hand like a storm, attacking him.

Su Ming raised the two Super Particle Light Blades in his hands and continuously blocked.

At this moment, Aeto pressed forward powerfully, raising his right foot and fiercely kicking the Red Angel’s chest!

Thump!

The entire Red Angel flew backward.

Su Ming quickly stabilized his mecha and looked up at Aeto, saying with a slight surprise.

“You’ve got some skills, but that’s about it.”

“Kid, you’re the most arrogant person I’ve ever seen.”

Aeto was also amused and angered.

At this moment, Evelyn controlled the You Ling Messenger, attacking Aeto from behind.

Su Ming decisively controlled the Red Angel to attack from the front, swinging the Super Particle Light Blade towards Aeto.

“Petty tricks!”

Aeto swiftly dodged Evelyn’s attack by moving sideways, then raised the Dawn Spear in his hand, blocked Su Ming’s attack, and swept him away with the momentum.

Su Ming and Evelyn passed each other, quickly controlled their mechas to turn around, and looked at Aeto with some surprise.

Aeto elegantly twirled the Dawn Spear in his hand, revealing a smug smile.

“Hmph!”

Evelyn snorted coldly, angrily controlling the You Ling Messenger to attack Aeto fiercely again.

Su Ming’s expression tightened, and he also controlled the Red Angel to charge forward.

Aeto faced the two’s encirclement without fear, controlling the Dawn Knight to swing his spear and counterattack.

Boom!

The three mechas continuously collided and intertwined in the starry sky, and terrifying impacts constantly spread out.

However, the stalemate did not last too long. As Su Ming began to exert his full strength, coupled with Evelyn’s auxiliary attacks,

Aeto quickly found himself overwhelmed, constantly being pushed back. His face darkened, and he swung the Dawn Spear in his hand in a dominating sweep.

Su Ming’s expression tightened. He controlled the Red Angel to disappear with a Light Speed ​​Flash, appearing out of thin air behind the Dawn Knight like a grim reaper, and delivered a fierce slash.

“Not good!”

Aeto keenly sensed the danger and immediately turned around, raising the Dawn Spear in his hand to block!

Crack!

The two weapons collided, and a huge impact swept out.

Su Ming controlled the Red Angel’s power to instantly erupt, forcibly suppressing Aeto.

“Assault Light Slash!”

At this moment, Evelyn attacked from the side in perfect coordination, swinging both Super Particle Light Blades with all her might, striking the Dawn Knight’s energy shield.

Along with splashing light particles, the entire energy shield violently twisted.

Aeto was instantly startled.

Su Ming decisively seized the moment Aeto was distracted, swung the Super Particle Light Blade in his left hand, and delivered a brutal horizontal slash onto the twisted energy shield!

“Break!”

Instantly, the Dawn Knight’s energy shield shattered with a roar.

“Damn it!”

Aeto controlled his mecha to retreat at extreme speed, forcibly pulling away.

Su Ming and Evelyn were just about to charge forward.

Aeto then ferociously opened his missile bay, and a heavy nuclear missile shot towards the two of them.

Su Ming and Evelyn’s expressions changed drastically, and they forcibly activated Light Speed ​​Flash again.

Boom!

A red sun flickering with lightning arcs rose, and an incredibly terrifying explosion spread out, devouring everything in its path with white light.

“Hmph, where are you running to?”

Aeto raised the Dawn Spear in his hand and pointed it towards the distant starry sky. The entire long spear split open again.

“Light Wave!!”

At this moment, Su Ming appeared in that starry sky. He was very surprised to see Aeto locking onto him.

This guy actually anticipated his landing spot, something that had never happened before. Sure enough, none of these V Generation Mecha pilots were to be underestimated.

Su Ming decisively activated his energy shield.

Whoosh!

The pulsating beam instantly spread out.

The Red Angel was instantly hit, and a huge explosion swept out.

“Su Ming!”

Evelyn’s heart tightened abruptly when she saw this scene.

At this moment, the Red Angel charged out of the explosion, heading directly towards the distant Aeto.

Looking closely, one could see that the Red Angel’s full-strength energy shield was actually on the verge of collapse, almost broken.

“Seeking death!”

Aeto saw Su Ming attacking him, veins bulging on his forehead, and immediately activated Overclock Mode.

The entire Dawn Knight’s interior emitted a roaring sound, with surging power output. The patterns covering its body lit up, and it attacked Su Ming with the force of thunder.

Su Ming did not dodge and also activated Overclock Mode.

The surface of the entire Red Angel’s mecha, blood-red lines lit up, and the four pairs of red Light Wings on its back instantly erupted, charging forward with a furious stance.

The moment Aeto closed in, he raised the Dawn Spear in his hand and thrust it towards Su Ming like a Light Shadow.

“Light Shadow Strike!”

“Vibration Blade!”

Su Ming’s pupils contracted. He maximized his power output, and the Super Particle Light Blade in his right hand vibrated at high speed, slashing horizontally from bottom to top.

Crack!

The two weapons collided. Aeto’s mecha trembled, and a look of horror appeared on his face; his spear technique had actually been seen through.

At this moment, Su Ming’s eyes gleamed with ferocity. He held the Super Particle Light Blade, rubbing it along the Dawn Spear, and fiercely slashed towards the Dawn Knight’s right shoulder.

Aeto felt extreme danger, but he didn’t have time to react.

Crack!

The entire right arm of the Dawn Knight was severed.

“Ah! Bastard!”

Aeto’s expression changed drastically. Ignoring his dismembered arm and spear, he immediately retreated to his limit.

Su Ming and Evelyn were just about to charge forward.

“Lord Aeto!”

At this moment, swarms of Apocalypse Divine Kingdom soldiers, seeing Aeto defeated, recklessly charged forward in their mechas.

Su Ming and Evelyn swung their Super Particle Light Blades, splitting one attacking mecha after another in half.

Boom! Boom!

Huge explosions continuously rose.

At this moment, Aeto decisively controlled his mecha to turn and flee, while also issuing an order.

“Retreat!”

The Apocalypse Divine Kingdom soldiers, who were in the midst of the melee, began to retreat one after another.

Su Ming saw this scene and did not continue to pursue them.

“Brothers, these Apocalypse scoundrels are failing, kill them!”

The morale of the Federation soldiers was soaring. They all controlled their mechas to chase after them, continuously firing at the retreating Apocalypse Divine Kingdom forces.

Evelyn’s expression shifted for a moment, then she issued an order on the communication channel.

“Do not pursue a cornered enemy. Everyone stop the pursuit, search and clear the battlefield.”

“Yes!”

Many subordinates replied with some regret when they heard Evelyn’s words.

Evelyn controlled her mecha to hover in mid-air, looking at the retreating Apocalypse Divine Kingdom forces, feeling a little moved inside.

Although the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom’s troops weren’t particularly strong, they had a large number of them, and having more people was indeed useful; it gave them a significant advantage in battle.

At this moment, Su Ming, seeing that the battle was over, picked up the Dawn Spear and spoke to Evelyn.

“Lord Evelyn, the enemy has already fled. I’ll be leaving first.”

“Alright, thank you very much.”

Evelyn thanked Su Ming very politely.

Su Ming then controlled his mecha to turn and leave.

Evelyn looked at Su Ming’s retreating figure, her eyes flickering. Although Su Ming was Mia’s student, the feeling he gave her was completely different, like two extremes.

Nodenga Fortress Central Control Room.

Mia, seeing Su Ming controlling the Red Angel returning, yawned and said to Celes.

“Celes, let’s go!”

“Okay.”

Celes immediately replied.

Nodenga Fortress and Fallen Light activated their propulsion systems and flew towards the distant starry sky.

Three days later.

Federation Abyss of Fallen internal defense line.

Space Defense Fortress · Black Thorn Shield (Branch)

In the Combat Command Room.

Soleia Commander stood with her hands behind her back, calmly looking at the battlefield distribution map displayed on the virtual operation screen. All the attacked strongholds had turned green, successfully defeating the invading Apocalypse Divine Kingdom forces.

At this moment, many generals returned to the Black Thorn Shield.

They came to the command room, chatting and laughing.

“Major General Bafeiti, I heard you made a great contribution this time, and even killed one of their major generals!”

“Haha, just good luck! It was really a stroke of luck. That bastard didn’t retreat after losing the fight, I don’t know what he was thinking? I initially thought his reinforcements were coming, but in the end, when everything collapsed, I didn’t see a single ghost.”

“Yeah, I originally thought this war would definitely be a tough battle, but I didn’t expect it to be so easy this time.”

“Indeed! I even suspect whether the opposing Commander’s brain was kicked by a donkey?”

“No idea.”

At this time, Su Yuan also asked Su Yao with a puzzled expression.

“Sister, this battle was too easy. When did the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom become so rubbish?”

“I don’t know either, I just feel like there’s something wrong here. If the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom is only at this level, we could completely wipe them out.”

Su Yao replied with a serious expression.

“True.”

Su Yuan scratched his head and replied.

Soleia Commander listened to everyone’s discussions, and her aged face was also full of confusion. She still hadn’t figured out what was going on.

However, at this moment, a virtual image connection suddenly came in.

A man in a colonel’s military uniform, with a buzz cut and a very spirited look, respectfully reported.

“Soleia Commander, there’s an urgent special situation to report.”

“Speak!”

“The Apocalypse Divine Kingdom’s Nodenga Relay Signal Fortress is using our secure identification code and is heading towards our defense line.”

Colonel Zhao Rui immediately reported.

At these words, Soleia and everyone present were stunned.

“Show me the image.”

Soleia said, her eyes flashing.

“Understood!”

Zhao Rui immediately presented the footage captured by the optical image.

Nodenga Fortress and Fallen Light were seen flying to the left edge of the defense line, stealthily moving inward, like mice trying to sneak in quietly.

The moment Soleia saw the Nodenga Relay Signal Fortress, all her troubles were immediately resolved, and her face instantly turned ashen. She gritted her teeth and said,

“Connect me to Mia!”

“Yes!”

Zhao Rui immediately proceeded with the operation.

Soon, the communication was successfully established, and Mia’s virtual image immediately appeared. She looked at Soleia and asked with a compensatory smile,

“Soleia Commander, is there anything?”

“Where are you sneaking off to?”

“Nowhere, just heading back to headquarters.”

“Get over here!”

“No need, you’re so busy, I won’t bother you.”

“Get your ass over here, now!”

Soleia was so angry her lungs were about to explode, she roared furiously.

“Yes.”

Mia shrank her neck and replied.

Soleia immediately cut off the video, stormed out of the war room, and walked towards the login access channel.

Seeing this, many generals followed suit.

Inside Nodenga Fortress’s central control.

Mia saw the communication cut off and cursed angrily.

“She’s infuriating, that old woman! What kind of eyes does she have to discover this?”

“Teacher Mia, with such a large fortress passing by, even if Commander Soleia’s eyes were completely blind, she wouldn’t be unable to see it.”

Su Ming replied helplessly.

“Forget it, it’s one cut whether you stick your head out or pull it back. I don’t believe that old woman can do anything to me!”

Mia also went all out, leaving the central control with Umtor and the others, heading towards the exit.

Su Ming then whispered a few words into Rhine’s ear.

“Understood!”

Rhine immediately nodded in response.

After giving his instructions, Su Ming hurried out of the central control room and caught up with Mia and the others.

Not long after.

Nodenga Fortress and Black Thorn Shield successfully docked.

One after another, isolation gates opened.

Mia led Su Ming and the others into Black Thorn Shield. From afar, they saw Commander Soleia with a stern face, leading everyone in the waiting area.

“Teacher, Commander Soleia’s expression doesn’t seem too good.”

Su Ming whispered a reminder.

“What’s there to be afraid of?”

Mia replied stubbornly.

Soon, they arrived in front of Commander Soleia and the others. Before Mia could speak, Commander Soleia furiously said:

“Mia! Didn’t I tell you to stay at headquarters? Who told you to privately lead a team to Abyss of Fallen? Who gave you the guts to penetrate deep into enemy territory? And even attack their relay signal fortress? Do you know how risky that behavior was? Once you fail, you’ll be surrounded, and everyone will die there.”

“Oh, no! It won’t happen. My students are amazing, aren’t they? And we even captured such a large fortress!”

Mia argued awkwardly.

Everyone was stunned to hear this and started discussing.

“How did they do it? Although this Nodenga relay signal fortress is just a small one, its firepower is not ordinary! They actually managed to take it without any losses.”

“I don’t know, it’s incredible.”

“It’s a piece of cake.”

Mia smiled broadly when she heard everyone praising her.

Commander Soleia’s entire old face twitched, and she roared angrily.

“Mia, do you still think you’re glorious?”

Seeing Soleia explode, Mia quickly shrank her head and shook it.

“Have you ever considered how many lives you have to risk so much, and how many lives are on your shoulders?”

Soleia angrily scolded Mia.

Mia forced a smile and argued awkwardly.

“Commander Soleia, please calm down. Actually, this isn’t entirely my fault! I was just following your orders, taking them to Abyss of Fallen to get familiar with it. But I never expected to get lost. We kept going and ended up deep in enemy territory, ran into their relay point, and were even discovered by them. We really had no choice but to start fighting.”

Su Yao and the other generals looked at Mia with strange expressions. How could she come up with such a ridiculous excuse? Only a fool would believe it, right?

After hearing Mia’s explanation, Soleia’s entire old face flushed. This was simply rubbing her intelligence in the dirt.

Seeing Commander Soleia about to explode, Su Ming quickly stepped forward and said, “Commander Soleia, what Teacher Mia did was indeed wrong, but she also cares about the Federation and wanted to do her small part to help the fighting soldiers.”

“Is that so?”

Soleia’s expression immediately softened a lot when she heard Su Ming’s words. This sounded more like something a person would say.

“Yes, that’s right!”

Mia quickly echoed with a smile.

Commander Soleia looked at Mia, who was like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, her cloudy eyes flickering, and her attitude suddenly changed as she said, “Alright, although you disobeyed military orders, you also accidentally performed a meritorious service. You are indeed indispensable for such a smooth victory this time.”

Mia immediately became vigilant when she saw Soleia acting so unusually. She didn’t believe this old woman would be so kind.

In fact, Mia was already prepared for disciplinary action. Of course, she didn’t care about the punishment; she had at least eighty, if not a hundred, disciplinary records on her.

Su Yao and the others were also very surprised that Commander Soleia let Mia off so easily.

Su Ming, on the other hand, frowned slightly; he also felt that something was amiss.

At this moment, Commander Soleia reached out and patted Mia’s shoulder, then said to her, “Mia, you’ve worked hard this time, capturing so many spoils of war. The front lines are currently short on supplies, so everything, including the fortress, will be confiscated.”

Mia jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and angrily replied to Soleia, “No, that’s mine!”

“What’s yours? Spoils of war are public property and need to be confiscated. Otherwise, who will repair your ships when they break down? Who will provide supplies?”

Soleia replied calmly.

“I used Su Ming’s ship and troops this time.”

Mia argued through gritted teeth.

“That’s the same. Su Ming is under my command when he’s in Abyss of Fallen!”

Soleia replied unceremoniously.

“No, I won’t give you anything, just take my life!”

Mia replied frantically.

“Don’t be silly. The spoils of war will be confiscated, and they’ll be distributed to you sooner or later.”

Soleia said, very satisfied, seeing Mia frantic.

“Bullshit! I hand in so much every time and only get a tiny bit!”

Mia said through gritted teeth.

Seeing Mia about to fight Soleia, Su Ming quickly reached out and pulled Mia back, calmly advising, “Teacher Mia, Commander Soleia is right. Spoils of war do need to be confiscated. That’s the rule, otherwise, it would be chaos.”

“You—”

Mia was speechless when Su Ming said the same thing.

In fact, Su Ming knew very well that this rule was set this way, and there was nothing to argue about. As for their ability to plunder privately back then, that was all specially permitted by Dragon White.

“Mia, learn the rules and regulations from General Su Ming. I really don’t know how you became a teacher when you don’t even know as much as your student. Alright, that’s all for now. Everyone, disperse!”

Commander Soleia announced directly.

Mia instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, her whole body becoming soft and lacking any strength.

Su Ming calmly said to Mia, “Teacher, let’s go.”

“My money!”

Mia mumbled as she followed Su Ming away.

Not long after.

Su Ming and the others returned to the 5th Level Battleship · Meteor Light. As for Nodenga Fortress, Commander Soleia had already sent people to take over.

At this moment, Mia saw Su Ming so calm and asked angrily, “Su Ming, we worked so hard to get this meat, and it just flew away. Why aren’t you angry?”

“What’s there to be angry about? What do you see over there?”

Su Ming said to Mia.

Mia followed Su Ming’s hint and looked into the distance, only to see boxes of Eternal Metal ore come into view.

Her eyes immediately lit up, and she excitedly shouted, “Eternal Metal! You transferred this?”

“Not only that, I also transferred that batch of nuclear thunder. As for the other supplies, there were too many, so I didn’t transfer them.”

Su Ming simply told Mia.

“You’re something else! We’ll split it fifty-fifty!”

Mia said with a wide smile.

“Deal!”

Su Ming readily agreed.

—

Inside the Old Galaxy · Federation territory.

A black planet floated in the starry sky, its exterior covered with monitoring stations, Dandelion Fortress, patrol ships, and mecha formations.

This planet was none other than Dark Star, one of the Federation’s ten major planets.

Through the black atmosphere, one could see a gigantic Dorag Sphere situated on the desolate land.

Inside the Dorag Sphere, a gigantic pyramid-shaped base city was located.

Throughout the base city, there were chaotic metal buildings everywhere, and on both sides of the narrow streets, small shops with neon signs were ubiquitous. On the streets, people with hair dyed in various colors, wearing all sorts of earrings and necklaces, smoking cigarettes in their mouths, and with defiant eyes, were everywhere.

This base city was called the City of Sin, a special administrative city of the Federation. And beneath the City of Sin, lay the Federation’s largest prison, the Gloomy Prison.

The Gloomy Prison was divided into seven levels, and the deeper one went, the more serious the crimes of the prisoners held there.

This Gloomy Prison was known as both the Hell of Death and the Paradise of Bliss.

Anyone who entered this prison, if they had enough connections and money, could live a very comfortable life. But if they had nothing, then it was hell.

Gloomy Prison, First Level.

In an independent cell, a man with short black hair, a high nose bridge, deep emerald eyes like a profound abyss, an ordinary appearance, and wearing a prisoner’s uniform sat on the edge of the bed.

He glanced at the time on his watch, slowly raised his head, stood up from the edge of the bed, walked to the cell door, opened it, and walked straight out.

In the cold corridor, several soldiers wearing single-person armor patrolled.

When they saw the man walk out, instead of apprehending him, they greeted him.

“Kloss.”

“What are you guys up to?”

Kloss replied with a smile.

“What else? Smoking a cigarette to pass the time. Want one?”

Those soldiers replied directly.

“No, I have something to do.”

Kloss exchanged a few pleasantries and walked straight towards the guard room ahead.

Soon, he arrived at the guard room and saw a middle-aged man with a beer belly and a small mustache sitting at the desk, smoking a cigarette and watching an adult movie.

“Lord Weibo.”

Kloss called out familiarly.

“Kloss, why are you here?”

“I want to go out and get some air. It’s too boring staying here.”

“Get some air? I think you’re thinking about women again.”

Weibo said with a teasing smile.

“Lord Weibo understands me best. I’m just feeling stifled.”

Kloss replied with a smile.

“Alright, go ahead! Take it easy, don’t get drained.”

Weibo picked up a set of normal clothes from beside him and threw them directly to Kloss.

“Thanks, I’ll bring you two good packs of cigarettes when I get back.”

“Okay!”

“I’m off.”

Kloss took the clothes and walked straight out.

Not long after, Kloss changed into his clothes and skillfully passed through layers of checkpoints, arriving at the City of Sin on the surface.

He walked out along the street with his hands in his pockets.

“Handsome, want to play? It’s very cheap!”

Along the way, women with heavy makeup and some charm leaned against the walls, waving at Kloss.

Kloss didn’t even glance at them, walking straight ahead on his own.

More than an hour later.

Kloss walked to a corner on the edge of the city, lifted a manhole cover, and jumped straight down, reaching the bottom.

He followed the narrow underground passage in front of him, walking straight ahead, and left the Dorag Sphere from underground.

Not long after, in a rocky area outside, a disguised cover was lifted, and Kloss crawled out from inside.

An eighty-degree high temperature immediately rushed towards him.

Kloss completely ignored the high temperature and silently walked forward.

Two hours later, Kloss was far from the City of Sin, arriving at an open wilderness.

He sat down against a weathered boulder, raised the watch on his left hand, and tapped it a few times.

Then he pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and then slowly exhaled the smoke.

…

Outside the Old Galaxy · Vast starry sky.

A stream of light wrapped in a transparent film passed through space-time, silently breaking through the Black Flame Star Defense Line, and rapidly flew towards the distant starry sky.

Several hours later.

Night enveloped the surface of Dark Star.

Kloss sat quietly leaning against the boulder, silently smoking, looking up at the sky, surrounded by discarded cigarette butts.

At this moment, a faint sound suddenly echoed in the sky, and the air constantly vibrated.

A slender, silver, prismatic metal object landed in front of Kloss.

Immediately after, the center of this silver, prismatic metal object split open, extending out a hundred-meter-long metal Dao Long Wing, followed by the top differentiating into a Tyrannosaurus Rex’s head.

In the blink of an eye, the V-Type Hero Class · Saber Dragon · Hamikas’s figure was fully displayed, emitting a terrifying aura.

Hamikas lowered his Tyrannosaurus Rex head, his crimson eyes gazing at Kloss, and he spoke in a rough voice.

“Kloss, didn’t I tell you not to look for me unless it’s something extremely important?”

“Hamikas, I’ve already taken care of everything you entrusted to me. Why haven’t you, the Mechanical Clan, made a move yet? What are you waiting for?”

Kloss stood up from the ground, raised his head, and stared at Hamikas, questioning him with dissatisfaction.

No one would have thought that the leader of the Mechanical Cult would be hiding in the Federation’s largest prison.

Hamikas fell silent after hearing Kloss’s words.

At this moment, Dao Long · Hamikas’s chest began to wriggle, and a purple metal spark emerged. Immediately after, metal liquid surged from its surface, differentiating into a three-meter-tall humanoid form with mechanical spider bones growing on its back, and a face covered with countless spider eyes. Its dense eyes stared at Kloss.

Kloss met his gaze without the slightest fear.

“Allow me to introduce myself. I am Pamier, the Deputy Patriarch of the Mechanical Clan! Kloss, I will now answer your question. You have done very well, but we also have our own considerations.”

Ling械 · Pamier’s voice was stern.

“Considerations? I think you’re scared, aren’t you? Didn’t you say before that the Mechanical Clan fears nothing? Why are you chickening out now?”

Kloss sneered mockingly.

“Kloss, mind your words. Don’t forget who saved you, who gave you power, and who helped you get revenge.”

Dao Long · Hamikas reminded him.

“Then tell me, what exactly are you afraid of?”

“Indeed, we are very wary of your Human Race’s Council Speaker Dragon String, but that doesn’t mean we truly fear him. It’s just that the time isn’t ripe yet.”

“Dragon String? Is it possible he’s already dead?”

Kloss said with a smile.

“Impossible. How could he die so easily?”

Pamier directly rejected Kloss’s words.

“Why impossible? He hasn’t appeared for a hundred years. All orders have been given through images and spokespersons.”

Kloss said somewhat frantically.

“That still doesn’t prove he’s dead.”

Pamier replied in a rough voice. After all, the Dark Star Lord and the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom Lord had both come out of seclusion; there was no reason for the strongest Federation Council Speaker to have problems.

“Haha!”

Upon hearing this, Kloss raised his hand to his forehead, letting out a piercing laugh.

“What are you laughing at?”

Pamier stared at Kloss, questioning him.

“What if I have a way to prove whether he’s still alive?”

Kloss’s smile faded, and he asked in a deep voice.

Pamier and Hamikas exchanged glances, then said to Kloss.

“What method do you have? For a hundred years, we’ve tried every possible method, but we haven’t been able to locate Dragon String.”

“Attack the heart!”

“How to attack the heart?”

“Haha, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you, so don’t bother yourself with it.”

Kloss said with a wicked smile.

Apocalypse Divine Kingdom · Abyss of Fallen Defense Line Headquarters.

Inside the Light Star Shield Fortress conference room.

E Takt, Atero, Aeto, and others sat in the conference chairs with grim expressions.

Archbishop Arcane and Commander Misa stood on the conference platform.

Commander Misa suppressed the anger in his heart, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, and he said through gritted teeth.

“How did you fight this battle? You’ve completely disgraced me.”

Upon hearing this, E Takt and the others all lowered their heads, truly ashamed.

They had actively attacked the Federation, only to suffer such a huge defeat.

“Why is everyone silent? Fine! Then I’ll ask one by one. E Takt, you tell me first. How did you fight? In this battle, you lost one 5th Level Battleship · Lanton, two Level 5 Battleships, two 4th Level Battleships, 13,211 mechas, with total casualties exceeding 28,000, and in the end, you couldn’t even protect the Eternal Metal that was being mined!”

Commander Misa questioned E Takt.

Hearing these battle results, E Takt wished he could find a hole to crawl into, but he could only bite the bullet and stand up to speak.

“I went to support the Nodenga Transfer Point and was ambushed by those Federation people.”

“Supporting the Nodenga Transfer Point, huh? How did you support it? Did you only arrive after the fortress was already lost?”

Commander Misa asked, laughing in anger.

E Takt gritted his teeth and said.

“Commander, it’s my fault. I am willing to accept all punishment.”

Commander Misa took a deep breath and said.

“E Takt, listen to my order. In view of your ineffective combat, your military rank is demoted by one level, and your position is temporarily retained. If you fight like this again next time, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

“Yes!”

E Takt replied with his head bowed.

“Sit down.”

Commander Misa then turned to look at everyone, just about to continue his questioning.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the conference room door was suddenly kicked open violently.

Aeto and the others all turned to look at the open door.

They saw a man in white colonial armor, with golden hair, handsome features, slightly red eyes, and an arrogant expression, walking in with a group of subordinates in an extremely arrogant manner.

“Andefa, what are you doing here?”

Aeto asked irritably.

This Andefa was none other than the third seat of the Saint Eleanor Knights, and also the Deputy Commander.

“Shut up, Aeto! You have no right to speak to me. I’ve already heard that you not only lost to the Federation but also lost the Dawn Spear. An incompetent waste like you should know your place.”

Andefa mocked him arrogantly.

“What did you say? Say it again if you dare.”

Aeto instantly became enraged and was about to go hit Andefa.

“Enough, Aeto.”

At this moment, Archbishop Arcane spoke in a hoarse voice.

Aeto, seeing Archbishop Arcane speak, could only close his mouth despite his anger.

The Apocalypse Divine Kingdom had a total of seven Archbishops, with Arcane ranking third, possessing extremely high status and authority.

Andefa ignored Aeto, walking directly onto the council platform and approaching Commander Misa.

“Commander Misa, long time no see!”

“Andefa, what are you doing here?”

Commander Misa looked at Andefa, asking with a solemn expression.

“Hmph, what else could it be? Of course, I’m here to help you!”

Andefa snorted coldly in reply.

“Help me with what?”

Commander Misa asked with a somewhat grim expression.

“Of course, to help you eliminate the Federation forces and completely drive them out of the Abyss of Fallen.”

Andefa showed a morbid smile, a hint of red light flashing in his eyes, and said fanatically.

“Are you crazy? Do you want to start an all-out war with the Federation?”

Commander Misa’s face changed drastically upon hearing Andefa’s words.

All the generals present were also startled. This was no joke. Although they were fighting fiercely now, it was still within a controllable range.

But an all-out war would be different; it would be a fight to the death.

“What if it’s an all-out war? When has our Apocalypse Divine Kingdom ever been afraid of the Federation?”

Andefa asked with a neurotic smile.

“I disagree. Doing this might lead to both the Federation and us suffering heavy losses. If the monsters in the Abyss of Fallen riot then, everyone will be finished.”

Commander Misa refused with a very firm attitude.

“You don’t have the luxury of disagreeing. I’m here on the command of His Majesty Van Lo to specifically eliminate the Federation. If you don’t cooperate, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Andefa directly pulled out a command document signed by His Majesty Van Lo and said coldly.

Upon hearing that it was His Majesty’s command, Commander Misa felt utterly deflated, like a frosted eggplant, and said with a complex expression.

“I understand, but even with your support, it won’t be easy to take down the Federation.”

“Don’t worry about that. I’ve brought secret weapons and a large number of elite troops this time.”

Andefa replied with a twisted smile.

Upon hearing this, Commander Misa’s old face twitched, but he didn’t say anything, tacitly accepting everything.

…

—

Inside the Fallen Light hangar.

The Pseudo V-generation Mecha · Shadow Lord was parked in its bay, and the Dawn Spear lay quietly on the ground in front of it.

Su Ming, Rhine, Celes, and others were all gathered around this weapon.

“Wow, the Dawn Spear! This is a divine weapon of the Apocalypse Divine Kingdom!”

Celes said excitedly.

“This spear is very powerful, especially that Light Wave move, it’s simply a great weapon for mass killing! However, it seems to require mecha power supply when used, and the Shadow Lord probably needs its interface modified.”

Su Ming said to Celes.

“It’s useless even if you modify it. Your Shadow Lord definitely doesn’t have enough power.”

Celes immediately poured cold water on him.

“When I was selecting parts at Xiguang Laboratory, I saw power units like the SCW-05 · Sun’s Heart and XDW-05 · Crystal God’s Light. Can these supply enough energy?”

Su Ming asked, finding it tricky.

“No problem, those are all standard Level 5 Mecha power units, but the problem is you can’t get them. Those people in the Mechanical Department aren’t as easy to talk to as Blacks.”

Celes replied, shrugging.

“That’s true.”

Su Ming replied helplessly.

“Also, this weapon doesn’t just consume power; it definitely has embedded energy crystals inside as well.”

Celes said to Su Ming.

“Celes, can you dismantle it to see what kind of energy crystal is embedded?”

Su Ming’s heart stirred when he heard this, and he asked.

“No problem.”

Celes performed a full scan of the entire Dawn Spear, then flew over, extended a slender metal wire, and inserted it into a specific small hole.

Click!

The tail of the Dawn Spear immediately split open, revealing a Level 6 black prismatic energy crystal.

“Wow, a Level 6 black energy crystal?”

Celes said, greatly surprised after seeing it.

Rhine and the others were also stunned; this spear actually used a Level 6 black energy crystal.

“No wonder this weapon’s power is so strong. It turns out such a high-level energy crystal is embedded inside, but the color is a bit faint, isn’t it?”

Su Ming said with a wry smile.

“The color is faint because the energy inside is almost depleted. I scanned it, and this energy crystal should still have about 11% energy left. You’ll have to find a way to get another one.”

Celes explained to Su Ming.

“I know. Let me think about it.”

Su Ming also felt a headache coming on; he was going to have to spend a lot again.

“Boss, are you still going to use this weapon then?”

Rhine and the others asked curiously.

“Of course, I will. Even if I can’t use the Light Wave, the sharpness and penetration of this weapon are still very good!”

Su Ming replied with a smile.
