But just as Bai Ze was about to approach, two rays of snow-like light from the transformed double-S mechas lit up at the same time.
Zhou Jiuya instantly recognized that it was Cecilia's black jade, and the other one was Leinsster's mecha prisoner eagle.
"Cecilia!!!"
In this world, the people that Zhou Jiu Ya hated the most were the people of the Phantom God Cult, especially Leinster and Cecilia. The former ambushed him and caused him to fail to rescue his brother in time, and later kidnapped Jiang Ci.
As for Cecilia, if she hadn't informed on him, Bai Min wouldn't have died! Not to mention, this crazy woman had cut open Bai Min's stomach and dug out Jiang Ci.
When enemies meet, their eyes turn red with envy. Ten thousand generals immediately pounce on Mo Yu, and the two sides fight each other. On the other side, Bai Ze and Prison Eagle pounce on He Zhun's broken lifeboat at the same time.
The collision of swords and guns produced a dazzling flash of fire.
From the first moment of the fight, Leinster clearly noticed Bai Ze's change, because the silver spear had completely changed its style. He made a mistake in the first prediction and was instantly knocked away.
"Varied!"
Leinster's eyes widened, and countless buildings collapsed in an instant. He barely managed to stabilize his body, and when he looked up, he saw Bai Ze leaning over and grabbing the lifeboat. At this time, the shell of the lifeboat had been completely shattered by the energy shock wave just now.
Jiang Ci made a prompt decision to stop pestering him and quickly controlled the mecha to evacuate.
"Bai Ze, open the landing gate! Bring him in!!!"
Crash—
Many mechanical tentacles extended from the cockpit and instantly caught the broken lifeboat. Bai Ze immediately cleaned up the broken shell of the lifeboat and called out the medical device to prepare for rescue, but the next second, the mechanical tentacles stopped.
"Aci, this..."
"What's wrong?!"
Jiang Ci glanced back hastily, but at that glance, he was stunned.
Holy marks!
He Zhun was actually injected with the stigmata!!!
At this moment, the young man was covered in blood, his expression was painful, and under his torn clothes were wriggling golden stigmata, which were repairing his wounds. However, Bai Ze's medical procedures did not contain relevant data, so he did not know how to start.
"Cough... cough cough..."
He Zhun slowly sat up from the lifeboat, and as he moved, he made a sound like some kind of bone being reconnected and straightened. He was in a daze for a few seconds, and his eyes gradually focused on Jiang Ci's face.
"… "
Probably neither of them expected to meet again under such circumstances. As once the closest family members, they didn't even know how to start the conversation at this time.
Jiang Ci looked at the young man with blood all over his face, and heartache and sadness spread in her chest.
Now he has learned from his uncle that He Zhun's family was killed in order to save him. If it were not for He Zhun's father, Jiang Ci would have died within a few months of his birth.
He Zhun had been carrying hatred for so many years, and he was one of the reasons why he had come to this point. No wonder this person didn't tell him anything, no wonder He Zhun didn't trust the empire, no wonder he wanted to walk alone.
"He Zhun, are you okay?"
Jiang Ci was the first to break the silence. He wanted to express his concern, and he also wanted to explain the political purge to He Zhun immediately.
"Listen to me, twenty..."
"That's enough Jiang Ci!"
He Zhun certainly knew that the political purge more than 20 years ago was just a show, he knew it from the beginning. But now He Zhun couldn't let Jiang Ci tell the truth because he had a bug in his body.
The Pope spared his life, but he also spared something else.
He Zhun gestured at his throat.
"Do you think it makes sense to say these hypocritically now?"
"… "
Jiang Ci noticed that special action and instantly understood what he meant.
What he meant was that what he said now was not right and it was not convenient for him to speak.
Just when Jiang Ci was trying to find a way to further communicate with He Zhun, Leinster rushed over like an angry beast.
"Jiang Ci!!!"
Bai Ze's action was suspended for a moment. The recent surge in mental power thresholds has brought Jiang Ci and Bai Ze's empathy to a peak. His current mental power threshold has reached 1200, while Leinsert's is only over 800. Therefore, even Bai Ze's momentary stiffness did not allow Prison Eagle to find any flaws.
At this time, Bai Ze immediately shot back with a gun and stabbed the cockpit of the Prison Eagle. The angle of this shot was so tricky that Leinster had no way to avoid it in a split second. He could only cross his two swords and barely block this powerful blow.
what happened?!
Who is driving Bai Ze? !
Leinster's eyes were filled with doubt and suspicion. For a moment he was not even sure whether Bai Ze's driver was Jiang Ci, because the opponent's combat effectiveness had made a qualitative leap in half a year, and it was completely different from Zhou Jiuya's previous bold and aggressive style. Instead, it was cunning and swift, and every shot was hard to defend against.
This familiar feeling reminded Leinster of Huo Chao, no... no, it should be Huo Xianfeng, the first time he fought against him.
Leinster, who had lived for more than three hundred years, felt very aggrieved, because at this moment he actually felt for the first time that he was being beaten by a kid in his twenties.
On the other side, when he confirmed that Jiang Ci was beating his opponent, Huo Xianfeng gave up going forward to help. After all, now was the best time to test the results of his teaching. He waved his hand casually, and the next second the entire sky was instantly covered by dense Zerg.
As a king, he generally does not need to personally fight in wars, he needs to control the overall situation. The existence of the Forbidden Abyss allows this 3S mecha to hover quietly in the air, which is enough deterrent to prevent anyone from launching an attack rashly.
"Zerg... Zerg are coming!!!"
"Defense barrier... Repair the defense barrier immediately!!!"
"It's too late... The energy can't keep up! The energy can't keep up!"
"… "
The military base's defensive barrier was not as good as Mingcheng's, and the aircraft carrier's self-detonation energy was too great, which created a huge breach. Even though countless personnel in the central control room quickly issued repair orders, the speed of closing it could not keep up with the Zerg army that was desperately pouring in.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!!! Order all fighters to rush forward and block the hole to buy time for the defense barrier to be repaired!!!"
The next second, dozens of fighter planes received the order, opened up to the maximum horsepower, and rushed towards the broken hole one after another. But halfway through, the pilots jumped into the lifeboat one after another.
Huo Xianfeng knew what he was doing. If he fired missiles or other artillery fire, it would only make the hole bigger and bigger, so the only way now was to let the fighter planes rush in, push back some of the Zerg that were pouring in, and then speed up the repair of the barrier.
But he didn't care, nor did he think that this little trick could stop the Zerg invasion.
But obviously the bishop in the main control room who was in charge of repairing the defensive barrier did not think so. They watched as the invading Zerg were rushed out by a continuous stream of fighter planes, but the fighter planes that rushed out were devoured in just a dozen seconds. The horrifying scene made any human being tremble.
But fortunately, the barrier is about to be repaired.
“Okay… it’s time to fix it!!!”
There was celebration in the control room.
But at this moment, Huo Xianfeng withdrew his gaze from the barrier and sneered.
"Innocent-"
At this time, the dense Zerg army seemed to have received some orders, and they made way for a path in unison like Moses parting the sea. The huge body of the leader General Osa pressed down, almost covering most of the sky.
The next second, the defensive barrier that had just been repaired was like a thin layer of paper, with a long gap cut by the sharp blade of the forelimb.
At this moment, all the mechas that were fighting fiercely stopped at the same time, and they all looked up to the sky at the same time.
In the endless smoke and gunfire, only Jin Yuan's majestic and cold face was seen looking down, which was a bit cruel at this moment. The light at dusk plated a layer of red-gold brilliance on the huge body.
But soon, the glow of the setting sun behind it was swallowed up by the metal.
At this moment, the colorful world seemed to be wiped out by an invisible hand, leaving only the gray and darkness that represent death and fear.
The late guest tore open the defensive barrier above the sky, as if poking his head out from the abyss at the end of another world. Countless pairs of greedy and violent compound eyes densely spread across the entire sky, and cold and gloomy breath came out of its terrifying mouthparts.
At this moment, not only the church's army, but even the First Legion, an allied army, felt a certain extreme horror and fear. It was like being suddenly dragged into a deep swamp, struggling in vain, and only being drowned.
At this moment, only Jin Yuan could see the Zerg king in the cockpit, and saw stars of joy flashing in the depths of his cold and violent vertical pupils.
—He was enjoying this apocalyptic view.
Jin Yuan finally understood why Huo Chao had arranged so many preparations to let Pei Changyun and Huo Xianfeng stand together. Because if this group of Zerg troops invaded not Shenglu Star, but the capital star of the empire.
That will be the true end of mankind.
Leinsert was almost facing an unstoppable defeat. He didn't even have time to care about Jiang Ci, because at this moment he was instantly knocked away by a huge monster.
“Damn it!”
The entire base was in chaos, with the sound of artillery fire everywhere. The sharp, terrified screams of humans were almost drowned out by the even more terrifying screams of the monsters the moment they came out, as powerless as a drop of water drowning in the sea.
At this moment, fear and shock covered the faces of every believer, so much so that even their expressions were distorted and darkened. Countless buildings collapsed and shattered, like dominoes being pushed down, and the Zerg army that had absorbed almost the entire Ming City had been reborn.
At this moment, Cecilia's expression was almost horrified, and her voice was almost high enough to break.
"Open the second channel immediately!!!"
Wow!
Countless mechas poured out from the black cracks.
"That is… !"
Jiang Ci noticed it instantly.
Those mechas were not normal humanoid mechas. They were the Zerg mechas they had seen on Tiandong Star before, as well as various strangely spliced mechas. But there were a lot of them, and they kept coming.
As soon as these mechas came out, they rushed straight towards the Zerg army, and the two sides engaged in a battle.
At this time, Bai Ze's electronic voice sounded directly in Jiang Ci's mind through the biochip.
"That is a mecha that was transformed from the shell of a Zerg corpse. It is the masterpiece of Angus, the chief disciple of the Saint."
But this was not what Bai Ze said, but what He Zhun said through connecting with Bai Ze.
The Illusionary God Cult was declining. After the collapse of the alliance, almost 70% of the surviving humans were transferred to Hengyun Star by Pei Changyun. No one could provide a large amount of manpower and material resources for the church.
"Although the Phantom Cult has technology, it has been depleted over the years and cannot produce large quantities of weapons. Angus proposed that the Zerg's shell can replace the mecha's outer machine. And they also have a way to use the Zerg's neural fluid as energy. In order to save manpower, it is more like a drone, with the main control system in Angus's hand for unified command."
The electronic voice spoke very quickly, without a word of nonsense, and quickly output information and intelligence.
"Cecilia also brought a clone of Huo Chao, and possessed a large number of mental shielding devices. I don't know how Huo Xianfeng and Huo Chao were connected, but it should be that Huo Xianfeng established a one-way connection similar to that between humans and mechas through mental power. Bernard had already noticed this when Huo Chao's Xingbo was exposed."
So He Zhun took the lead and submitted the analysis report to the Pope.
"Jiang Ci, Cecilia is your mother's apostle. She informed the Pope because he already knew about Bai Min's escape. Cecilia could only disguise herself in this way to know their pursuit plan. But we don't know her purpose of staying in the church yet, so we can only roughly judge that she can become an ally."
"Huo Chao's clone is not just a political tool to attack Pei Changyun. He definitely has other uses because the stigmata on his body are different from those on everyone else. So it's best to get rid of him as soon as possible."
A large amount of information poured into Jiang Ci's mind at once. He quickly analyzed and classified it, extracted the key points, and then immediately asked Bai Ze to synchronize the information with Zhou Jiuya and Huo Xianfeng.
The next second, Bai Ze flew out and pounced on the nearest Zerg mecha, stabbing it with his silver spear, instantly nailing it to the wall of the building next to it.
call out!
The next second, a silver ring flew out from Bai Ze's chest, turning into a saber that pierced straight into his brain from his compound eyes. Then countless mechanical tentacles stretched out from the saber and quickly connected to invade.
"Signal decrypting..."
"Signal decrypting..."
Xiao X and Jin Yuan have the same program, so they can hack into and decipher the church's signal faster than Bai Ze. Jiang Ci now needs to find the master control system of Angus and destroy it immediately. As for Cecilia and Huo Chao's clones, they can only be handed over to others.
"Ding-"
"Aci! We found the source of the command signal, it's underground!!!"
The next second, Jiang Ci pulled it to the maximum energy threshold, the silver spear quickly charged, and a dazzling lightning flashed up. The next second, the spear suddenly came down with thousands of thunders, opening a bloody path in the countless artillery fire and mecha fighting.
boom!!!
The ground, which was almost a ruin, suddenly shattered and collapsed with a rumble, revealing the huge underground space below. Jiang Ci stared at it for a few seconds, asked Xiao X to quickly scan the building structure below, and issued a command at the same time -
"Third echelon, gather around me immediately! There is an urgent mission."
The Major General's tone was cold and serious.
"The medical team will come immediately to receive the special wounded and evacuate the battlefield immediately."
Jiang Ci certainly knew He Zhun's purpose and undercover identity, but the church had already installed a bug and injected him with stigmata, not to mention that He Zhun also provided so much key information. It was obvious that if He Zhun went back, he would probably die. So this time he understood He Zhun, but he didn't plan to let him go back.
So the major general very cruelly gave the medical team an additional order:
"It is permitted to carry out special management of this injured person in accordance with Article 238 of the regulations. If necessary, compulsory control measures that do not endanger personal safety can be adopted."
He Zhun is so smart, he always has various solutions, so special situations require special treatment.
"Yes, Major General Jiang Ci."
The captain of the medical team quickly confirmed the order and began to prepare a special medical cabin and related equipment.
"etc!!!"
This was He Zhun's voice. It was obvious that he had never expected that Jiang Ci, who had tried to keep him verbally the last time they met, would ruthlessly and forcibly detain him this time.
Moreover, he had just shared so much information. In addition to helping, he also planned to join the war and exchange some other information with the other party. But Jiang Ci threw him away after listening to the information? ?
This behavior is no less than that of a scumbag cat who cheated all the dried fish and then walked away without letting anyone touch him!!!
"Jiang Ci, you can't..."
He Zhun opened his eyes wide and wanted to say something eagerly, but before he could finish his words, he was ejected from the cockpit by Bai Ze and was taken in by the medical team that rushed over very neatly.
The whole process was extremely smooth, and every step was in line with the First Corps' battlefield treatment standards. If it could be recorded, it could be used as a teaching model in military academies.
After confirming that the medical team had begun to evacuate the battlefield, Jiang Ci's gaze returned to the collapsed underground entrance.
"Aci! The building structure scan is complete. The 3D model map is being created. It is expected to take one minute."
Xiao X usually looks noisy, but he is quite reliable when doing things. After getting the map, Bai Ze immediately jumped down, turned into a line of meteorites and instantly sank into the underground entrance. At the same time, dozens of A-class military mechas broke away from the battle without hesitation and quickly followed Bai Ze into the underground.
At the same time, Jin Yuan and Wan Jiang simultaneously received the message from Bai Ze.
Huo Xianfeng knew that Jiang Ci had gone to find Angus's main control system. Although he had full confidence in Jiang Ci's current combat effectiveness, after thinking about it, he still sent a Zerg reconnaissance unit to follow.
As for himself.
Huo Xianfeng turned his head and looked into the distance behind him.
A double-S mecha that looks like the Forbidden Abyss is flying towards him rapidly.
The driver inside is a clone of Huo Chao.
It must be said that everything this church did was in a minefield that Wang could not tolerate. If he could barely suppress his anger when he saw the large number of mechas made of Zerg corpses just now, then at this moment, he felt that there was no need to suppress it.
The usually cold golden vertical pupils now seemed to be filled with flowing molten lava. Because of the extreme murderous intent and anger, they even had a dazzling sense of red gold, so hot that they seemed to burn everything to ashes.
boom!
The next second, the two sides engaged in battle.
The collision of two similar halberds produced countless dazzling sparks and bursts of loud noises that were no less than the exploding of artillery shells.
The originally chaotic battlefield was suddenly cleared up, because in such a violent airflow and energy impact, no other mecha warships could maintain stable flight and combat. They were like ships tossed on the stormy sea, completely thrown away.
Countless imperial soldiers and believers were knocked to the ground by the aftermath, but they had no intention of continuing to fight and could only stare at this magnificent spectacle in amazement.
Two super-giant mechas, rarely seen in the world, collided and impacted each other like gods and demons fighting at doomsday. The energy aftermath of each confrontation rushed out in all directions. Intense pressure radiated from the center of the battle group to the entire space, bursting out countless intertwined arc lightning, shining with indescribable gorgeous colors in the dim sky.
"Two... Two Forbidden Abysses?!"
"No, the one being beaten is obviously a fake. It just looks similar."
Zhou Jiuya's voice appeared on the First Legion's public communication channel.
"Everyone withdraw from the fighting range, reorganize the formation, and continue fighting."
"yes!"
Zhou Jiuya turned off the communication channel and looked at the two mechas in the distance. It was obvious that even if the other Jinyuan was a fake, its external machine was built according to the 3S mecha, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the current confrontation.
It seems that the Phantom God Cult has invested a huge amount of money this time, but even so, how can a fake defeat Huo Xianfeng
Zhou Jiuya also received Bai Ze’s message, and he had the same question as He Zhun. It was obviously a failure, so why did the other party have to put in so much effort
But now none of them could find the answer. After more than half an hour, the furious Huo Xianfeng finally suppressed the opponent completely. The halberd directly broke through the energy defense shield and pierced through the cockpit door. Then with a loud bang, the mecha was nailed to the ground.
Buzz—
The scarlet electronic sound flickered twice, and finally returned to darkness.
"Huo Xianfeng! I've already dealt with... Angus's main control system. I'll be back soon. How's the situation over there?"
Jiang Ci's breathing was a little breathless, as if he had just been through a fierce battle. Huo Xianfeng sent a Zerg scout to follow, so he naturally knew the whole situation. He looked up and found that the Zerg mechas that were originally frantically counterattacking began to shake, as if they were in a state of program chaos.
Tsk, he is worthy of being Major General Jiang Ci.
She is worthy of being his wife.
Huo Xianfeng's angry mood finally improved a little. He thought about it and then gave a compliment.
"Aci baby, you are really amazing."
"…?"
What's wrong with this guy all of a sudden
But Jiang Ci suddenly remembered that Huo Xianfeng was still in the courtship period. So he pursed his lips and decided to appease his boyfriend who was in the courtship period and wanted attention, so he also replied,
"Brother Xiao Huo, you are also very strong. You look really handsome today."
"!!!"
Huo Xianfeng raised the corners of his mouth and felt comfortable.
At this moment, Zhou Jiuya's voice came faintly from the public communication channel—
"cough."
He said nothing, just coughed lightly.
But the implication is very very clear, the war is not over yet, what are you two showing off on public channels? ! ! !
Although it was just a light cough, Jiang Ci instantly recognized it as the voice of his uncle.
Bai Ze reminded quietly,
"Aci, the big devil just opened the public communication."
Jiang Ci: “…”
Huo Xianfeng!!!
This guy did it on purpose!
