The Accountant sat in Majesty's cockpit, watching the scene unfold through the porthole. His jaw dropped.
N ∈,
Was … was she even human?
He wasn't the only one. Everyone else in Majesty was gaping. They could fit a volleyball in their mouths without a problem.
It wasn't just them. Even the Accountant, who was in charge of piloting Majesty and controlling the ship's communications, had no idea how powerful this old man was.
As Majesty approached, Roxanne grew in size. She was three thousand meters tall, far taller than Majesty. Majesty was only a few hundred meters long!
In front of Roxanne, it was like a child.
Roxanne waved a hand in Majesty's direction. To her, the Blinding Stone was useless.
Majesty obediently flew forward, dispelling its invisibility.
Roxanne ran a hand over the ship's small frame.
She giggled. "Little Accountant, I'll give you this photo.
Take it slow, don't worry.
I don't kill. "
As she spoke, she casually waved her hand and the photo floated into the universe out of thin air, quietly floating there.
The Accountant asked, dumbfounded. "What should we do, Master Photographer?"
Luo Xianni smiled and said, "Attack!
If you destroy the photo, then everything in it will be destroyed.
I didn't do it. "
With that said, Lan Jue's body shimmered and shrank. When she returned to human form, she was sitting atop Majesty.
"Boss …" The members of the Accountant's electronics team were barely able to lift themselves to their feet.
The Accountant swallowed hard, then called out to the Accountant.
"Didn't you hear what the Photographer said?
Attack!
Fire at full power! "Majesty's energy levels were high.
At Lan Jue's request.
After all, Majesty was equipped with a Phylactery Godstone.
When there was nothing else to do.
Lan Jue's orders to Star Division were to keep charging the phylactery stone, then continue their cultivation.
More than 800 Arcanists had to instill energy into the Divine Phylactery Stone at least twice a day. The amount of energy accumulated was imaginable.
The main cannon had already been fully charged while it was flying over. A glaring beam of light instantly fell on the photo.
The photo rippled with halos and immediately became a little wrinkled.
But it wasn't broken.
If the photos taken by Roxanne were damaged, the space inside would also be damaged, and the things sealed inside would naturally be destroyed.
However, this picture could only be maintained for a limited amount of time. Moreover, the defensive power was proportional to the existence being photographed.
In other words, Majesty's attack would have to be powerful enough to destroy all the battleships in the area.
To put it simply, Roxanne's ability to take pictures.
It was as if he had directly sealed his opponent, rendering them unable to retaliate.
They could deal as much damage as they wanted.
As long as the attack power was enough, the opponent would naturally die.
Among the control-type Arcana, this was definitely a top-notch existence.
When Majesty's main cannon fired a third time, the photo finally shattered. What remained was a black hole, and then everything was gone.
Majesty skidded forward a little, and the Accountant scrambled to get out of the way as fast as he could.
Moonfiend.
The Moonfiend Palace was surrounded so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through. The Moonfiend Pirates were the most powerful pirate clan in the Shattered Starfields. Moonfiend City had become a haven for depraved pirates.
Only the core of the pirates, including the leaders of the pirate clans, were allowed to live here.
Allowing them to live in the Moon Demon Palace was a symbol of status, but it was also a form of control.
When the various pirate crews received word from their bosses that the Moon Demon Palace was under attack, they quickly organized themselves and rushed towards the Moon Demon Palace.
What awaited them was the palace's impenetrable shield.
The pirates moved in unison, attacking the shield in unison.
There were more than five thousand mechs on the streets and in the air, surrounding the Moon Demon Palace.
Beam after beam of energy landed on the surface of the Moon Demon Palace, exploding into rings of rippling light.
However, the palace's shield was designed to withstand attacks from battleships.
Even the main cannons of a battleship would need some time to break through it.
Under the onslaught of the pirate mechas, the shield's light began to dim.
However, the pirates on the outside were losing contact with the pirates on the inside.
Suddenly, a powerful beam of light burst forth from the top of the Moon Demon Palace. Then, with the Moon Demon Palace as the center, cannon barrels began to protrude from the ground.
Beams of light shot out in all directions, blanketing the pirate mechas.
One by one, the mechas exploded into balls of light. The Palace's counterattack had begun.
The pirates realized this was a sign that the palace had fallen into enemy hands.
The beam of light that shot out from the roof of the palace was aimed at the mechas in the air. Hundreds of them were vaporized, leaving no trace behind.
This was the power of a railgun, and a miniature one at that.
The five thousand pirate mechas were caught off guard, and a tenth of them were killed in the blink of an eye. They scrambled to activate their shields and find cover.
Moonfiend Palace Command Center.
Su Xiaosu sat in Lan Jue's seat. Her eyes were cold as she punched down on a button. Her red lips were pursed, and her face was a mask of frost.
Lan Jue sat by Gabriel's side.
Gabriel was now completely silent, like an old monk in meditation.
Things had progressed to this point. Looking at the disorganized pirates on the screen, he knew that the Moonfiend Pirates were finished.
The Pontiff's Citadel had spent so much manpower, resources, and money on the Moonfiend Pirates.
"You don't need to rush in. Go clean up the other cities. The palace's defenses are secure." Lan Jue commanded Zeus -1 and Third and Fourth Brigades.
The Moonfiend Palace had been taken over.
In the process, they'd met fierce resistance from the pirates.
It was now that the pirates' true power was on display. Even when they were on the run for their lives, they were strong.
But when they fought as a group, their will to fight affected their strength.
Back when he was in the Moon Demon Palace, he could no longer escape.
If they didn't defeat their enemies, they would die.
Of course they had to put up a desperate fight.
Unfortunately for them, they were up against Star Division's First and Second Brigades.
Two large teams, more than five hundred Arcanists, equipped with powerful mechs, formed a team of ten people.
Wherever they went, they were unstoppable!
There was no power that could stop them from moving forward.
The battle was over in the shortest time possible.
The Driver was in charge of the railgun.
He'd taken control of the palace's highest point, and was connected to Lan Jue.
She'd been the one who'd ordered him to fire the last shot.
The railgun was too powerful. It took thirty seconds to recharge after each shot before it could be fired again.
However, that cannon had weakened the attacks of the pirates by more than two-thirds.
No one wanted to be the next to be vaporized!
"Emissary of Death, what is the Pontiff's Castle thinking?
You don't want the light. Why do you have to go to the dark? "Lan Jue looked at Gabriel, her voice full of regret.
Gabriel glanced at him but didn't say anything.
They were meat on the chopping block, and there was no point in saying anything.
Lan Jue patted him on the shoulder. She rose to her feet and walked over to stand behind Xiaosu.
"Don't be sad.
What's done is done.
When we leave this place, you'll have a new life. "
Xiaosu nodded. Her eyes flashed with pain. "After all, everything here is the fruit of my blood, sweat, and tears.
I can't bear to part with it. "Her hands didn't slow down as she spoke. The palace's defenses increased in intensity.
The Adepts of the two brigades didn't need to participate in the fight.
Not yet, at least.
The Moonfiend Palace was stocked with energy crystals. All they needed to do was install them into the defenses.
Lan Jue didn't try to dissuade Xiaosu. There were some things she needed to deal with on her own.
"The two auxiliary planets are down. One is a turtle in its shell.
The other's ships have all been destroyed. "The Accountant reported.
Lan Jue put her communicator on speaker mode so everyone could hear.
The Emissary of Death closed his eyes. Xiaosu turned her head to look at Lan Jue. She gave him a slight nod.
Now that the battle had progressed to this point, the final result had basically been announced.
Zeus -1 and the battleships of the Third and Fourth Brigades were scavenging the rest of the planet.
It was easy to imagine what would happen if these battleships were to face the pirates, who only had a few defenses and mechas.
Luna's pirates weren't strong enough to breach the Moonfiend Palace's defenses.
The railguns of the two auxiliary planets weren't strong enough to reach the main planet. Even if they could, they wouldn't dare do so.
This was different from what had happened on Arachnid.
The companion stars of Planet Arachnid were like its satellites, they were small and very close to Planet Arachnid.
