Shadows of the Deep Space
Chapter 1816 - 562: Fierce Battle (Part 4)
Rumble~
One by one, the mecha being besieged were blown up.
The surrounding starry sky was instantly cleared.
Adimo immediately moved toward the gap that had been torn open.
"Damn, follow me in!"
Seeing Elder Adimo moving toward the defense line, Hayes could only clench his teeth, lead everyone, and continue the siege.
Countless beams destroyed the black bars with flesh-like feelers, but in the blink of an eye, they were restored as if they possessed immortality.
However, Hayes and the others didn’t give up, instead, they desperately attacked.
Both parties entered a state of fierce battle.
In simple terms, both sides were in a contest to see who could outlast whom.
Star Destroyer·Light Sleep’s central control room.
Horif spoke to Edrigge Vice Patriarch.
"Sir, that Elder Chilami tore open a gap; should we cover it?"
"No, let’s continue wearing them down; don’t get too close!"
Edrigge watched the fierce fighting on the battlefield, his aged face constantly writhing, a glint flashed in his eyes as he spoke.
Though Adim had torn open a gap, intuition told Edrigge that going up there now meant seeking death.
"Understood!"
Horif promptly responded.
At this moment, the war correspondents on-site spoke nervously.
"It’s terrifying; these Chilami monsters are transforming into enormous creatures, extremely brutal, even the No.2 defense line has a breach opened!"
...
"Oh my god, what are these monsters?"
"Especially the monster at No.2 defense line, it grew so large, it’s almost the size of a standard planet, isn’t it?"
"Who could withstand this?"
"Come on, you must hold on!"
...
Many citizens expressed their worries.
Nether Moon Star Defense Headquarters.
Long Chen and others were nervously watching the battles in the three defensive zones.
At this moment, Gwen reported to everyone.
"The No.2 defense zone has a gap torn open, both sides are in fierce battle, casualties are skyrocketing, situation is very unfavorable."
"This can’t go on, that Elder’s true body is too strong. Dispatch the World-purifying Flower over there and seize the chance to eradicate it!"
Commander Fulaya said with furrowed brows.
"Alright!"
Long Chen’s expression softened; after weighing it repeatedly, he spoke.
"Immediately order to lower the power of the curvature interference device at No.2 defense zone, and move the World-purifying Flower over!"
Fulaya immediately instructed Gwen.
"Yes!"
Gwen immediately executed the order.
...
Starry sky.
The World-purifying Flower quickly moved towards the rear of No.2 defense zone, while its internal energy units began preheating.
Inside Star Destroyer·Deep Blue’s central control room.
Operators continuously reported.
"Colonel Li Xuan of the seventh regiment has died in battle!"
"The target is advancing toward the defense line!"
...
Qianluo saw the operation screen, a person’s icon dimmed one by one, his left hand clenched into a fist, nails buried into flesh. But even so, he could only grit his teeth and say.
"Order the backup troops to cover us, absolutely don’t let them breach the defense line!"
"Yes!"
The operator immediately responded.
A message popped up; Yun Qian ecstatically reported to Qianluo.
"Lord Qi Luo, the World-purifying Flower has been dispatched by Nether Moon Star Headquarters for support!"
"Great, connect me to Lord Hayes!"
Qianluo immediately instructed Yun Qian.
"Yes!"
Yun Qian immediately operated.
Starry sky.
Hayes controlled the White Swan, continuously firing beams at Adimo, but even still couldn’t stop its advance.
Just as he was anxious, a communication request popped up from the Deep Blue.
Hayes answered the communication.
The voice of Qi Luo Army Commander sounded.
"Lord Hayes, the World-purifying Flower has been dispatched by headquarters!"
"I understand, have everyone retreat, maximize the firepower of the defense weapons to cover me!"
Hayes said to Qianluo.
"Wouldn’t this be a problem?"
Qianluo asked worriedly.
"Don’t worry, I don’t plan on a heroic sacrifice."
Hayes said, feigning ease.
"Alright!"
Qianluo immediately replied.
With the orders issued, a swarm of Federation mecha began retreating.
"Haha, you’re scared, aren’t you!"
Seeing humanity shrinking back, Adimo excitedly advanced.
"With me here, don’t even think about advancing!"
Hayes controlled the White Swan, firing a sweeping beam.
Defense weapons wildly unleashed attacks!
"Courting death!"
Adimo’s enormous body surface exploded with pits; it looked angrily at Hayes, firing countless beams toward him.
Hayes’ nerves were taut to the extreme, piloting the White Swan constantly evading.
Inside Star Destroyer·Holy Slumber’s central control room.
Horif reported to Edrigge Vice Patriarch.
"The Federation troops seem unable to hold, retreating en masse."
"Retreating? Quick! Slow down Holy Sleep’s speed, cease advancing."
Edrigge Vice Patriarch’s eyelid twitched, immediately issued a command.
"Yes!"
Even Horif was startled and promptly responded.
At this moment, the World-purifying Flower moved to No.2 defense line, its entire body lit up with white light, its head began to split, unfolding backwards like a blooming bud, revealing glimmering crystal chips piece by piece.
Suddenly, Holy Slumber’s scanning device emitted a piercing alarm.
"Warning: Detected high energy reaction."
"Warning: Detected superweapon·World-purifying Flower!"
...
"Not good, it’s the World-purifying Flower!"
Horif shouted in horror.
Edrigge Vice Patriarch’s face changed instantly, promptly issued a command.
"Quick, everyone retreat and disperse!"
"Sir, what about the Chilami troops?"
Horif asked in panic.
"At times like this, don’t worry about them!"
