No matter how much they didn't want to believe it, Gabriel and Raphael wouldn't bet their lives on it.
"Have you forgotten the Knight's Treaty?" Ke 'er said coldly to Gabriel.
The Messenger of Death's face reddened. "You were the ones who tried to break up the duel. We heard everything you said."
Lin Guoguo snorted coldly, "So what?
We're not knights. We're women. "
Gabriel and Raphael choked on their chests and almost couldn't catch their breath.
"If you want to die, go ahead and try," Mika said coldly.
"Bang!" At this moment, a strange sound came from the sky, attracting the gazes of the five people.
The two top-notch mechas that had been glued together finally separated.
One of them turned into a ray of blue light and shot over, while the other directly fell to the ground.
"Let's go!"
Gabriel and Raphael didn't hesitate. They turned into two streaks of light and shot toward the ground.
That was because it was none other than the God of Thunder.
Thor didn't look as dazzling as he had before. The light around him had dimmed, and the front of his body was badly damaged. Parts of his body were exposed, and sparks of electricity flickered in and out of sight.
But he was as proud as ever. His aura was far greater than it had been before.
A white lightning symbol flickered on his chest, as well as on his back.
Its eyes were still as bright as ever.
In the distance, the Battle Angel mech had already crashed heavily into the ground. Only half of the six wings on its back remained, and the damage to its entire body was at least twice that of Thor's. Both of its arms were completely broken, and it was impossible to find where the limbs were.
Only when it was about to hit the ground did a faint golden light emit from its body. It steadied itself, preventing it from crashing to the ground.
"Thank you, Zeus!"
Michael's deep voice reverberated in the air. If one only listened to his voice, it would be impossible to tell if he was injured or not.
"Don't mention it. I'll come to the Pontiff's Citadel sooner or later, and I'll explain everything to you." Lan Jue's icy voice cut through the air.
After a moment of silence, Michael said, "Gabriel, pass on my orders, have all the blockading ships withdraw.
I lost the battle between knights. "
Gabriel's expression was solemn. "Yes."
At this moment, a faint blue light flashed in the distance. In the next instant, it had already arrived on the battlefield without a sound. Without any hesitation, it directly flew towards Thor and the three women.
Gabriel and Raphael's faces paled at the sight of the blue light. Uriel had failed as well?
The blue light flickered, and the four figures in the sky disappeared almost at the same time. The light flashed again, and the blue light turned into a dot of light in the distant sky, disappearing without a trace.
"Chi!"
A deflating sound rang out, and the Battle Angel mech's breastplate slowly flipped up, revealing the internal situation.
Michael was no longer as handsome and resolute as before.
It was as if he was paralyzed in the cabin. His whole body was charred black, and he was motionless.
"Michael!" Gabriel rushed forward to help him out.
A beam of white light shot out from Raphael's hand and fell upon Michael's body, healing him.
With the help of Raphael's healing light, Michael slowly left the cabin. As soon as he left the Battle Angel, the broken Battle Angel fell to the ground and smashed into the ground.
Michael's face was charred black, and it was impossible to read his expression. But it wasn't good.
"Michael, how are you feeling?"
Gabriel held his arm. She could feel the heat radiating from Michael's entire body, and when she touched his body, she could feel a numbing sensation coming from him.
Michael shook his head. "We were wrong. Zeus is stronger than he's ever shown us. Or maybe he's grown stronger in the last three years.
I may have lost, but he didn't come off well either. He's as badly injured as I am.
If we don't get rid of him, he'll be a big problem. "
Gabriel's eyes flickered with murderous intent. "Then we …"
Michael smiled bitterly and shook his head again. "There's no chance.
Do you think he'll give us another chance?
Zeus's strength isn't the only thing frightening about him. He's cunning as well.
I'm certain that he didn't know about our plan before we met the Moonfiend Empress.
But even under these circumstances, he was able to make a quick decision to use his Ascension against the three of us. It might seem like he was trying to find a way to break through, but he was actually trying to confuse us.
Three years ago, the strongest he'd shown was only his Ascension.
That's why we were careless. I had to use Angel's Descent in order to catch up to him. "
"He had a second Discipline that allowed him to surpass my Angel's Descent in speed. By the time I discovered it, I'd already used up too much of my Discipline.
That's how he found the opportunity to force me to use my mecha.
When it comes to mecha piloting, I really can't compare to that young man.
That's why I had to use my killer move. But that Thor of his is stronger than my Battle Angel.
I could sense that the core of his Thunder God was most likely an S-rank power gem.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to unleash that kind of power with his mecha.
That kind of power is enough to tear apart a battleship. "
"Let's report to the Supreme Pontiff first," Raphael said.
"Zeus is now under Skyfire Avenue's command. I'm afraid we'll have to bear the brunt of the pressure.
The Infernal Enchantress will have to wait. "
"Boss!"
Lin Guo-guo cried out. She went to support Lan Jue, who appeared unharmed but was as pale as a sheet of paper.
Lan Jue looked up at her, then at the other three. A smile spread across her face. "It's good that you're all here!"
— —
Good that you're all here!
Brothers and sisters of the Tang Sect, are you all here?
Tell everyone to come back!
It's time to go home.
