Chapter 731: Burnt Forest City

『Welcome to the wasteland where good and evil intertwine』

『The smoke of war fills my eyes』

『I have no regrets in picking up weapons』

『If you have a dream in your heart, you must defend it』

『You only have this chance to prove it』

『Struggle against fate and catch up』

『Burn your life and refuse to be humble』

…

The translucent golden energy wings extend from the back of the mecha, making it turn over like a swift in a storm when it is fully advanced, leaving a surprising and agile track in the sky. The pure white mecha shell is like a phantom afterimage when it is advanced at high speed, until the blazing sword extended from the mecha arm flashes in the air, cutting the gray iron shuttles straight into pieces, and the golden branch logo on the mecha shell is revealed in the radar image.

The ‘Golden Rose-a14’ mecha, which was inherited from the early days of the Federation, has retained its elegant and agile outline style despite many iterations. If the ‘Fierce Red Falcon-a1’ is a red burning chariot, then the ‘Golden Rose-a14’ is a noble knight riding a white horse. The two have different design styles and are good at very different directions.

“Fire!”

Even though they were far apart, the leader of the ‘Fierce Red Falcon-a1’ mecha team gave the order directly.

“Yes.”

In the cockpit, the drivers in red armor were immersed in high-temperature orange liquid, their eyes were covered with orange goggles, and as their pupils shrank and focused, the small points in their vision were locked, and then the armor on the surface of the mecha opened piece by piece, and many orange missiles flew out at an angle, and the white gas they brought danced in the sky, like countless snake heads with bared fangs and claws.

The 'Strontium Red-XC' air combat missile is an advanced product of the military giant 'Eye of the Dragon'. Its warhead is extremely strong and has an isolation enchantment effect. It can easily penetrate the defense shields and field force fields of many mechas and cruisers. The warhead carries a special decomposition powder inside, which can greatly damage the structure of the metal alloy, making it instantly fragile, and then disintegrate under the action of internal and external stresses.

Hundreds of 'Fierce Red Falcon-A1' mechas in the sky simultaneously focused their fire, and the missiles released instantly filled the radar display projection. The thousands of flashing dots continued to accelerate with their own different trajectories, rushing towards the flying pure white mecha like a rain curtain, blocking the space where the opponent might dodge.

Gold and dark red laser beams flashed and extinguished in the sky from time to time. The two mechas began to shoot at each other at a very long distance. However, under the condition of high-speed movement, such shooting could not achieve much results. Even if the opponent was hit, it would last for 1 second, and the opponent could dodge with the change of flight trajectory. The short hit could not burn through each other's mechas.

Soon, after several rounds of shooting, the missiles with flame tails gradually arrived near the white 'Golden Rose-a14' mecha. After accelerating over this distance, the speed of these missiles has reached the limit. This is the moment when they are most threatening and the moment when they are most lethal.

Facing the missiles that have turned into dark red meteorites, the high-altitude 'Golden Rose-a14' mechas once again demonstrated their excellent displacement ability. They first deviated the trajectory of the missiles with unimaginable flexibility, and then suddenly turned back, passing through the gap in the torn missile array and coming to the rear. Then six small holes lit up on the side of the mecha's chest, shooting out fine golden rays of light, which detonated the warheads that passed by one by one, turning them into fireworks in the air.

After destroying these missiles, they did not stop at all and continued to approach the enemy in front. At this time, the array of the "Fierce Red Falcon" mecha began to change direction. They began to pull up to the sky and increase the power of the furnace core to inject the propulsion device, making it accelerate in straight-line flight at the same speed as those flexible "Golden Rose" mechas.

In this way, one side moved and the other side chased, and the golden and red jets intertwined in the sky from time to time, and then gradually entered the outer edge of the atmosphere.

When the air became thinner and the environment gradually turned to vacuum, the crimson mechas turned again. At this time, the outer shell of the mecha had already burned red, and then the armor on the chest shrank to the surroundings, revealing the red muzzle inside.

These muzzles with orange-red heat waves were aimed at the planets below, locking on important targets one by one and firing directly.

The surging torrent of heat poured out, and the orange-red light beam with circles of blazing rings kept shuttling back and forth, and finally hit the ground, and then the fire flowed everywhere, like hundreds of light spots lighting up the ground and spreading around. Wherever it went, many buildings were submerged, and countless green flowers and plants turned into charred dust in the sea of ​​fire.

Their goal was not to defeat these elite mecha guards guarding the central star field, but to strike at the elf faction forces on the planet, and now they were aiming at the targets that had already been determined.

The reason why they did not fire at high altitude at the beginning was, first, to test and divert possible defense forces, and second, to take advantage of the opportunity of fighting with the opponent to launch the attack, so that they could later use the "accidental injury" in the fierce battle to wash away the guilt.

Although the Federation had long been in chaos, it had not yet reached the point of complete collapse. Even the party that launched a fierce coup d'état needed to do some superficial work so as not to make themselves enemies all over the world.

Seeing these crimson mechas performing such cruel acts in front of him, the pilot in the Golden Rose mecha opened his eyes wide, and a rage that was suppressed to the point of exploding rose wildly in his heart.

"How dare you!?"

The pure white mecha turned into a shining stream of light and rushed into the crimson array. The golden lightsaber burst into flames, and the blazing blade pierced into one of the ‘Fierce Red Falcon-A1’ mechas, detonating its furnace core and turning it into shattered flames.

Following closely, another ‘Golden Rose’ mecha rushed into the array, and the golden lightsabers in their hands tore and chopped the crimson large mechas along the way one by one.

However, this process did not last too long. After the shooting, the ‘Fierce Red Falcon’ mechas in the sky freed their hands, and they also pulled out the lightsaber handles of the mecha arms. With the surging energy injection, the dark red boiling lightsabers swayed at the top of the sky, and the two sides were engaged in the most dangerous and tragic close-range fighting.

The blazing lightsabers collided and touched each other, emitting countless shattered sparks, and the sizzling sound of heat and electricity exploded at the outer edge of the atmosphere. Then the two sides broke free again and collided again, either successfully avoiding the enemy's attack, or seizing the momentary gap and flaw to cut into the other's body.

The surging sparks exploded at the outer edge of the lightsaber, and with a sharp sound, the heavy armor was torn open by the lightsaber, exposing the structure and components. If it was the limbs, the mecha could still survive. If it penetrated directly into the core area in the middle, the death of either the driver or the core furnace would cause the mecha to crash and perish.

In outer space, 12 cruisers with unknown numbers and more than 230 destroyers blocked the planet's channel. Some of their starships also gradually aimed their guns at the mechas in battle and began to lock on one by one.

"Should we fire, captain!" After the lock was completed, the adjutant in the bridge asked.

The gray-haired commanding captain looked at the mechas fighting on the screen in silence. At this time, the bridge hall was particularly quiet, and all the personnel were waiting for orders.

1 second

2 seconds

3 seconds

The captain never spoke, but stared at the two sides in the battle. He held the handrail, his fingers embedded in it, and he was still unaware at this moment.

At this time, another batch of cruisers opened the hatch, and another batch of gray iron shuttles flew out. They rushed into the atmosphere, and then a new batch of "Li Hong Falcon-a1" mechas flew out. At this time, the second batch of "Golden Rose" mecha guards rushed out from the ground. It turned out that not only the attacking party, but also the garrison troops on the planet had reserved a lot of troops to deal with possible crises in the future.

"Turn the muzzle, aim at the place where the mecha was launched on the ground, and bombard it."

"Yes!"

At this time, the starship in space turned the muzzle again, aiming at the planet below, and then injected energy. After the blazing fire was lit, a deep blue shield force field rose on the ground.

Then, dazzling torrents penetrated the atmosphere and bombarded the surface, forming a clear dividing line with the blue shield force field.

"Continue bombarding, and release bombing troops at the same time to eliminate exposed targets at fixed points."

"Yes!"

The last batch of gray iron heavy shuttles rushed into the planet's atmosphere. This time they carried not mechas, but a full load of various bombs.

One after another, heavy bombs rushed into the surface, sank into the earth, and then exploded. The spreading waves lifted the earth, and the layers of spreading ripples formed artificial earthquakes on the surface of the planet.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar, take a look!

Earth-shaking bombs, bombs specially used to target underground defense facilities, with their destruction, the holes originally used to launch warheads and mechas were extinguished one after another, and then more heavy shuttles swept across the earth, constantly dropping black bombs, clearing targets along the way.

At this time, after the evacuation of the alarm, there were not many innocent pedestrians on the streets and city surfaces. If there were any, these bombing troops would not care.

Countless historical buildings that existed in the early days of the Federation were burned in the flames, and the forest city built by the elves slowly collapsed in the burning waves of fire. Even if someone wanted to save it at this moment, they could only kneel in despair in front of the fire covering the entire world.

On March 21, the nine major residential planets in the central star field of the Federation, including "Tear Moon Flower Crown", "Green Rain Flower Crown", "White Feather-α", "White Feather-β", "Holy Feather-Σ", and "Tikos-δ", experienced violent turmoil. According to the latest bill passed by the Central Parliament of the Federation, the faction supporting "Volcano Queen" Pulinkoko launched an attack, destroyed the cities and defense bases where the elves gathered on these planets, and militarized these planets to besiege the remaining members of the elf faction.

After the attack, the various residential planets in the central star field were disconnected from the Internet one after another, and the local area networks were also interfered and blocked, entering a state of being unable to communicate.

15 days later, the elf faction that held the inner side of the planet surrendered. They were disarmed and escorted out. Considering the laws and justice of the Federation, these people were not executed, but were placed under house arrest, waiting for the next decision.

On April 19, representatives from the Western, Southern, Eastern, and Northern Star Regions of the Federation issued a severe warning to the ruling faction of the central Federation, demanding that the other party immediately stop the attack and cruel plundering of the elf faction, saying that this violated the will of the "Golden Flame Flower" Isanissa and was a blatant destruction of the foundation of the Federation. Under tremendous political pressure, the ruling faction of the central Federation stated that it would no longer continue to launch attacks on various inhabited planets, and stated that it would restore the severed communication network in five days.

"In other words, we still have five days." A general spoke in a low voice in the large command hall of the battleship.

"Yes, according to the reply we published in each star region of the Federation, we must reopen the central star region network within five days, that is, before April 25, and allow other star regions to send delegations to supervise and explore."

"These guys..." Faced with such a humiliating scene, several high-ranking officers on the scene were furious, but they had no choice. If it weren't for the great defeat seven years ago, which made the Central Council lose its dignity, there would not be such a corrupt predicament today.

"It's useless to say angry words. Our primary goal at present is to capture the 'White Rose Harp' Ewen Qilin. Only when she falls into our control can we truly control the central star region. Otherwise, once she escapes, coupled with the support of other star regions, all our previous efforts will be in vain in an instant." A politician with a serious expression came out from the side corner of the hall and conveyed the importance of this mission.

"However, this is the 'Double Tree Star Region' after all, the former hometown of Lady Isanissa, and the station of the Fourth Fleet. Even if we want to act with all our strength, we have to be cautious." Looking at the beautiful green planet outside the starship, the members present felt a lot of psychological pressure.

Although the 'Golden Flame Flower' Isanissa has been dead for nearly a thousand years, she has left too many traces in the Federation, and the historical halo surrounding her is too sacred. Even if their faction openly opposes and attacks the elves, they dare not continue to target this singer. Instead, they have to try their best to separate the historical status of this singer from the elves and not be implicated.

Originally, Ewen Qilin should have lived in the planet of ‘Green Rain Flower Crown’, so that they would have the highest probability of success in launching an attack. However, the elves hid a special starship inside the ‘Green Rain Flower Crown’ and let Ewen Qilin take this starship back to the planet of ‘Double Tree Star Region’. This huge mistake almost made the entire operation fail. The only lucky thing was that Ewen Qilin had not yet broken through to the stage of the Sun-level singer.

‘If she had already entered the stage of the Sun-level singer, she would have easily raised the Sun Crown with the support of all the elves in the Double Tree Star Region. At that time, we would have had no choice but to admit defeat and surrender. ’

“But until now, we still haven’t seen any signs of the Sun Crown appearing. On the one hand, this is due to our early blockade and network severance. On the other hand, the other party is really unable to handle the task and cannot break through in such a situation. The Highness Pulinkoko we support is the destiny.”

After spending the most difficult first ten days to fall asleep, they are now gradually regaining their composure. Anyway, there is no way out, and they can only go all the way to the end.

“Are the teams ready for the landing operations?”

“The first batch is ready. Considering that we cannot use starships for direct bombing, we have tried our best to gather enough manpower to land on the planet for ground operations. At present, the first batch has 203,728 people, the second batch is about 500,000 combat troops, and the third batch will have 800,000 members.”

“Hehe, the third batch will probably arrive on the fourth day, and it will be too late by then.” An officer laughed, but the expression on his face was not relaxed at all, only suppressed.

He took a deep breath, “That’s it, go all out, and definitely catch Ewen Qilin.”

“Yes!” The personnel on the scene began to act, and various reports sounded one after another.

"The 1-45th landing craft is in place, and the 46-90th landing craft will enter orbit in 20 minutes..."

"The blockade star mark has been built and is in operation, blocking the super-time and space routes inside and outside the planet."

"The throne system is in place, and Her Highness Pulin Koko will start it in 4 sidereal hours. At that time, she will try to raise the crown for the first time and determine the specific location of Ewen Qilin."

"Now, everyone arrives at the combat position and starts to act!"
