Only Paragons were allowed to participate in a war between Paragons.
The only human Paragons who hadn't yet joined the fray were Lan Qing, Huali, and Chu Cheng.
The three of them were in charge of the battle.
Lan Qing's brows furrowed. A different voice came from Huali's side. "No, you can't go.
You are our symbol. If something happens to you, Neptune's internal structure will collapse. "
The voice came from Mo Xiao. Even Lan Qing had to admit Mo Xiao was right.
Just like Middle Heaven, Lan Qing had to stay in command. As the current Neptune, if Huali left Neptune and something happened to it, then the Hanhai Group's forces would be in deep trouble.
"Mo Xiao is right. You can't go." Lan Qing's voice was low.
Huali's voice was urgent. "When the nest is overturned, there are no eggs left intact. If something happens to the other side, do you think we'll be able to hold it off?
I have to go. Ah Jue and the others are under too much pressure, there's no use for me here.
Mo Xiao, keep this a secret. Don't let anyone know I'm gone. "With that, Huali hung up.
Neptune.
"No, you can't go!" Mo Xiao grabbed Huali's arm. Her eyes weren't forceful, but pleading.
Huali's eyes were resolute. "I have to go. How can I abandon my friends?
What's more, our victory hinges on our Paragons.
My presence could be the straw that breaks the camel's back. "
Mo Xiao still wanted to say something, but Huali, who was in her grasp, had already turned into a blue halo and dissipated in front of her.
Tears flowed uncontrollably from Mo Xiao's beautiful eyes. In the depths of her eyes, there was a deep sense of sorrow and unwillingness to accept this.
"Why?
Why are you doing this to me?
I'm already your wife! "
As Neptune made his move, on the other side, another person who had the same idea also flew out at the same time.
Two figures, one blue and one red, appeared in space in the next instant.
Gray flames spewed out as the red figure forcefully carved out a path of blood and flew into space.
As for Huali's side, because of the power of the Soft Water Cannon, she encountered fewer obstacles.
"I knew you wouldn't be able to hold it in." Seeing who it was, Huali couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Chu Cheng snorted coldly, "What do you mean by I can't help it?
This was called a fearless spirit.
Don't you think I'm a hero? "
Huali snorted disdainfully. "Hero or coward, we'll see on the battlefield.
Let's go! "The two of them turned into streaks of light and raced toward the Paragons.
They were both Paragons in the Realm of Protogenia, but the two of them could take some of the pressure off their side.
While they were gone, Middle Heaven underwent another change. Five minutes later, fifteen thousand combat jets were once again on the battlefield.
Middle Heaven had lost more than a tenth of its fighters in the last battle. They still had thirteen thousand or so. Even so, it was enough to make a decisive difference in a tense battle!
Fifteen thousand was because there were more than a thousand mechas on the battlefield at the same time.
It wasn't just the Paragons who had arrived, but Star Division as well!
For the sake of this victory, the allied forces had mobilized all available forces.
Star Division had rested for less than an hour after the battle on Angel. Then they were back here for the next battle.
But their morale was high.
Finally, they had a chance to prove themselves.
If they made it back alive, they would be heroes of humanity.
Star Division's ability to hold off the enemy's ambush on the other side of the battlefield was a testament to their strength.
Although they didn't have the support of the Paragons, they weren't weak in the slightest.
With Middle Heaven's help, they were able to stabilize the situation.
The aliens couldn't break into their ranks.
Lan Qing's orders were simple: pick up the slack and fill in the gaps.
The allied forces' firepower was concentrated, but it wasn't enough to stop all the aliens. Some would eventually get through.
Once they got close, however, their destructive power was undeniable.
What Star Division needed to do now was spread out into the battlefield in small units and eliminate any stragglers that slipped through the net.
This was the best way to fight them. Individually, they were strong, but not suited for a head-on battle.
Against lone aliens, however, they were like fish in water.
With Star Division's help, the battlefield was stabilized.
When Admiral Hui saw Middle Heaven's ships recharge in less than five minutes, he couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
"How is that possible?" Their Space Combat Jets needed another 20 minutes to recharge before they could reenter the battlefield.
He wasn't sure what was going on with the Hanhai Group, but he knew it would take some time.
But why did Middle Heaven's jets need so little time to recharge?
It was beyond his knowledge of current technology.
This was a top secret of the Eastern Alliance, and Lan Qing couldn't reveal it to him.
In truth, Middle Heaven's drones couldn't be replicated. Every one of them was fitted with a small inkcore reactor that absorbed the energy from the bastion's interior to fuel its flight and combat prowess.
The reactor itself couldn't produce the element itself, but it could use it to its fullest potential.
The reactor itself couldn't be stored for long periods of time, and the energy would quickly dissipate.
Put simply, the fighters could only fight on Middle Heaven. Once they left the bastion, they'd be gone.
They'd be useless.
Even the Eastern Alliance couldn't replicate this method.
But inside Middle Heaven, they were an effective trump card.
They didn't have missiles because they were affected by the element and could explode at any moment.
The element's radiation was just too strong.
However, the rate at which the jet could recharge the reactor was much faster than the average jet.
The entire process took three minutes, and when the jets flew back and forth, five minutes was more than enough.
That was why the scene was so startling.
Admiral Kang was stunned for a few seconds before he recovered.
Unconsciously, Lan Jue's confidence in Middle Heaven's ability to fight increased.
The Black Star Fleet's ability to sustain itself in battle was not something three bastions could contend with.
Not to mention Lan Qing's unpredictable tactics.
Middle Heaven was on the move as soon as the fighters took to the skies.
Now was the best time for the allied forces. The aliens had split into two groups. One group had yet to return from their ambush on Angel.
The other group was tied down by the Paragons.
They wouldn't be able to join the fray any time soon.
There were many aliens on the battlefield, but none of them were particularly strong. This was the perfect time to deal a heavy blow to the aliens.
Lan Qing used his special channel to issue an order. "Warstar Mode, activate!"
An ear-piercing siren wailed through the interior of Middle Heaven. Everyone was in position. If anyone could see what was going on inside the bastion, they'd see that everyone was strapped into their seats by metal seatbelts.
It wasn't like before.
Middle Heaven began to tremble slightly. Its core was stimulated by the jet, and it began to pulse with energy. The unstable energy could be seen from far away.
The entire bastion flickered with an erratic orange light.
The honeycomb of cannons slowly retracted, and the surface of the bastion was covered with a layer of orange. It looked like the aftermath of Middle Heaven's Solar Cannon.
"Mo Xiao, ask Neptune to attack with everything you've got.
If you want Huali to come back safe and sound, we need to win. "Lan Qing's cold voice was transmitted to Mo Xiao's ears.
Mo Xiao shot him a cold look. She'd never liked Lan Qing or Lan Jue.
But that was a personal grudge. She was wise and farsighted enough to be the leader of the Hanhai Group.
Lan Qing was right. If they wanted Huali to return safely, they had to win.
"Activate Neptune's Trident Mode."
Neptune shuddered slightly. Then the bastion began to undergo a strange transformation.
The interior of the spherical bastion began to expand outwards, and then its form began to change.
This was a Bastion ship!
Its transformation was too obvious.
Kang Hui watched from inside Tyrannosaurus, dumbfounded. As a traditional bastion, Tyrannosaurus was well-balanced, and had all the elements of a traditional bastion.
But the two bastions in front of him were anything but conventional.
He didn't know what Middle Heaven was doing, but Poseidon's ship was in a state of complete upheaval.
As it changed, Neptune began to take on a humanoid shape. A massive weapon appeared in its hands, a golden trident.
Today I went to the hospital with my wife for a checkup. So many trivial things got in my head that I forgot to update. Thank Nana for reminding me, I'm so sorry!
