Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Coming Through the Galaxy
Editor: Noodletown Translations
The Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon, a weapon with firepower reaching AAA-level, could almost destroy any Warrior-level or lower cha with a single perfectly charged shot.
At this mont, the Deputy Leader of the Broken Axe Star Thief Group watched with a wicked smile at the RX-16 that just destroyed their cha in the distance. He still did not activate the radar lock; he’d first charge and then lock onto the target at the last mont before firing, attack! This left the enemy with no ti to react. This is a high-level skill that a remote ch pilot must master after nurous battles!
The Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon had finished charging!
0.5 seconds, radar lock, fire! The Deputy Leader’s face was manic as he pressed the fire button.
“Beep!——” The piercing alarm sounded; Black’s speed could be described as very fast, and even Mu Fan’s reaction speed was remarkably quick as the cha instinctively made a crouching leap to evade.
...
But from locking on to firing, in just half a second, the blue energy beam from the Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon, emitting from ten kiloters away, flashed past with a speed far surpassing the cha’s reaction, piercing through!
The scene seed to turn black and white, with that piercing light becoming the only focal point between heavens and earth.
Not a sound was heard as the RX-16, which had destroyed fourteen Reapers, was cut at the chest; the entire cha was split in two, scattered on the ground. An invisible energy wave dissipated, and the ground behind the RX-16 even vaporized into an unimaginably large pit.
“Hmph, lucky for you.”
Pursing his lips, the Deputy Leader turned around uninterestedly. Ending this ordinary adventure-level military cha with the Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon was, to him, really an honor for the opposite side.
Inside the mountain, the major and his team continued to stare at the surveillance screen, but they realized that after Marcus’s RX-16 and those six Reapers entered the alleyway, they’d not reappeared.
Everyone’s attention was focused there, so no one noticed what the near-Earth guard ship had deployed in the distance. But when, a few minutes later, the blue beam that pierced through the city appeared!
“Energy level, extrely dangerous!”
“Energy level, extrely dangerous!”
The alarm blared loudly, causing everyone to look puzzled at the flashing light, only for the major to suddenly fall into thought, and then shocked, he shouted: “Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon, it’s the Thunder Slash!! Thunder Slash!!”
Everyone was stunned, and very quickly, their faces turned extrely grim. Warrior-level cha Thunder Slash, an existence capable of changing the local battlefield situation! Now, one had appeared on this distant, remote Loga Star, and it was on the opposite side, right at their doorstep.
Marcus must be finished!
Are we truly going to sacrifice for the country? The atmosphere of despair started to spread; the overwhelming force finally broke the last straw of morale.
Ti was up! The governnt network was restored!
“I am Councilman Hayden! I now order a full counterattack, first, third, sixth units, open anti-aircraft fire, authorize fighter jets to take off, authorize the Loga Dawn cha Army to deploy! Authorize…” A booming sound interrupted, cutting off the last sentence.
As the citizens once again heard the voice of Councilman Hayden, their confidence increased dramatically, yet that final interruption caused morale to plumt straight away among the military and civilians in the two cities.
“Heh,” Wen Yu chuckled coldly, observing through the battlefield monitor as the councilman’s residence was once again engulfed in a mist of green light, then shifted his gaze to the dark green cha hovering above the residence, with four deep green floating cannons orbiting it, relentlessly bombarding downward. That imposing posture seed to lord over all beings.
Wind Thief, truly lived up to the na, at least worthy of the batch of source crystals I traded him; considering Poison Scorpion’s cleverness, Wen Yu thought, though he probably really didn’t know that Poison Scorpion was pushed to the edge, taking action personally to protect his own base.
…
At this crucial mont, where was Mu Fan? From the instant the cha was hit, the electronic systems on the cha completely failed; Black was silent once more, and even all the monitoring in this area went dead. Black, deep within the network, was anxiously at a loss.
I am intelligent life, but if Mu Fan, the only host, dies, where do I go? What is my purpose of existence? It can’t lose Mu Fan!!
The intelligent life experienced an unparalleled and intense emotion akin to humans for the first ti! But it was all in vain; Black fell into deep self-bla, even beginning a countdown to activate the self-dissolution program.
Mu Fan was unaware of all these; he was still alive but had fallen into a coma. When the sense of alert ford in his mind, he controlled the cha to crouch to dodge at a nearly 400-hand speed, although he couldn’t evade, that re half-ter descent had allowed him to escape the threat of death.
The cha was blasted apart about one ter above Mu Fan’s head; you could say the upper half of the cockpit was partially vaporized, causing an internal structural fracture. Mu Fan was knocked unconscious by the sudden electromagnetic storm, leaving his consciousness blank, unable to move, lying on the ground. In the face of such weapons that far surpassed human physical strength, personal power seed small and insignificant. Not far away lay the truncated tip of the spindle-shaped escape pod, with Marcus inside, his life or death unknown.
Is it all really going to end here?
The deep purple Thunder Slash cha had used a dynamic accelerator to leap from the building; it was about to join with Wind Thief. The imposing Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon was carried on its back, pointing obliquely at the sky, intimidating in appearance.
Thunder Slash landed and prepared to advance, but at that mont, the Deputy Leader saw a red dot appear in the sky through the optical imaging mirror. Upon closer inspection, it was a red outer fla, the result of the hull rapidly frictioning with the atmosphere! It drew a noticeable red line across the sky.
A teor?!
How can there still be a teor coming now? It seems to be falling towards this area. The Thunder Slash cha glanced backward, then looked at the distant slopes, the Deputy Leader channeling the communication: “There’s a teor falling, brothers be careful, prepare for the impact defense!”
Military personnel also noticed the teor descending from the sky with a red fla tail, and after being calculated by the monitors, soone quickly reported: “The teor will fall three kiloters away in the urban area; judging by its shape and size, the impact will have a light effect on the cha, but it won’t affect our base.”
The major imdiately encouraged those warriors fiercely resisting, reminding them to prepare for protection.
However, no one saw clearly; it wasn’t a teor at all, but an interstellar freighter rapidly descending! That simple, boxy shape, often referred to as an iron coffin, in the interstellar terminal, was an old-style small interstellar freighter.
At this mont, this vessel that cut through the sky was falling toward the ground, but if you looked closely at the direction, it seed to be toward the place previously hit by the Thunder Sacrifice Surge Cannon.
“Complete obliteration, probably won’t be able to find even a fragnt of the cha,” the Thunder Slash cha stated, having figured out the falling direction, the Deputy Leader mocked with filled sympathy.
Getting closer to the ground, 2000 ters, 1000 ters, 800 ters, 500 ters… Closer and closer to the ground, in the blink of an eye the ‘teor’ disappeared behind towering buildings.
400 ters, 300 ters… Suddenly, that falling out-of-control freighter suddenly burst open!
If soone were directly below, they’d see it was a scar-riddled, ghostly black tal arm, and the appearance of this arm seed to be a trigger, as the freighter instantly exploded into a ball of flas in mid-air.
In the spreading ball of flas in mid-air, yet another fragntary armored ghostly black tal arm protruded from the fingertip, followed by a torso, feet, falling straight toward the RX-16’s wreckage…
A surprisingly broken ghostly black cha!
