Chapter 731: Burning Forest City

"Welcome to the wasteland where good and evil intertwine"

"The smoke of war fills our eyes"

"I have no regrets in taking up arms"

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

"This is my only chance to prove myself"

"Fight against fate and catch up"

"Burning life, unwilling to be humble"

……

Translucent golden energy wings extended from the back of the mecha, making it turn over like a swift in a storm when it was propulsing at full speed, leaving a surprisingly agile trajectory in the sky and atmosphere. The pure white mecha shell was like a phantom afterimage when it was propelled at high speed, until the blazing light swords extending from the mecha's arms flashed in the air, cutting the gray iron shuttles straight into pieces, and the golden branch and leaf logo on the mecha shell was only then revealed in the radar image.

The 'Golden Rose-a14' mecha, which is a continuation of the early 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 areas.

"Fire!"

Even though they were far away, the leader of the 'Fierce Red Falcon-A1' mecha team gave the order directly.

"Yes."

In the cockpit, the pilots in scarlet armor were immersed in high-temperature orange liquid, their eyes covered with orange goggles. As their pupils contracted and focused, small dots in their field of vision were locked onto. Then, the armor on the surface of the mecha opened piece by piece, and many orange missiles flew out at an angle. The white mist they brought up 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 'Dragon's Eye'. 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 that 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 concentrated their fire, and the missiles released instantly filled the radar display projection. Thousands of flashing dots continued to accelerate in different trajectories, rushing towards the flying pure white mecha like an array of rain curtains, blocking the opponent's possible dodge space.

Golden and dark red laser beams flashed and went out in the sky from time to time, and the mechas of the two sides began to shoot at each other at a very long distance. However, as they were moving at high speeds, such shooting could not achieve much results. Even if they hit the opponent, it would only last for 1 second, and the opponent would be able to dodge by changing its flight trajectory. The short hits 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 had reached the limit. This was the moment when they were the most threatening and also the most lethal.

Faced with the missiles that had turned into dark red meteorites, the high-altitude 'Golden Rose-a14' mechas once again demonstrated their excellent displacement capabilities. With unimaginable flexibility, they first deflected the trajectory of the missiles, then suddenly turned back, passed through the torn gaps in the missile array, and came to the rear. Then six small holes lit up on the side of the mecha's chest, emitting tiny golden rays of light, which specifically detonated the warheads that flew past them one by one, turning them into fireworks in the sky.

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 'Fiery Red Falcon' mecha also began to change direction. They began to pull up to the sky and increased the power of the furnace core and injected it into the propulsion device, making its acceleration in straight-line flight no less than those flexible 'Golden Rose' mechas.

In this way, one side moved and the other side chased, 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 into a vacuum, the crimson mechas turned around 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 extremely red muzzle inside.

The muzzles of these guns, emitting orange-red heat waves, were aimed at the planets below, locking onto important targets one by one and opening fire directly.

A surging torrent of heat poured out, and the orange-red light column with circles of blazing rings kept shuttling back and forth, and finally hit the earth, and then the fire spread in all directions, like hundreds of spots of light lighting up the ground and spreading to the surroundings. Wherever it went, many buildings were submerged, and countless green flowers and plants turned to 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 elven faction forces within the planet, and now they are aiming at targets that have already been determined.

The reason why they did not open fire at high altitude right from the start was, firstly, to test and draw away possible defensive forces, and secondly, 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 clear themselves of the blame.

Although the federation has long been in chaos, it has not yet reached the point of complete collapse. Even the party that launches a violent coup needs to do some superficial work to avoid making itself enemies all over the world.

Seeing these crimson mechas performing such cruel acts before his eyes, 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 deep red 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 behind, another group of 'Golden Rose' mechas rushed into the formation, and the golden lightsabers in their hands tore and chopped the crimson large mechas along the way into pieces one by one.

However, this process did not last too long. After the shooting, the 'Fierce Red Falcon' mecha in the sky freed its hands, and they also pulled out the lightsaber handles of the mecha's arms. With the injection of surging energy, the dark red boiling lightsabers fluttered at the top of the sky, and the two sides were engaged in the most dangerous and brutal close-range battle.

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

Violent sparks exploded at the outer edge of the lightsaber. With a sharp sound, the thick armor was torn open by the lightsaber, exposing its structure and components. If it was the limbs, the mecha could still survive. If it directly penetrated 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 waterway. Some of their starships gradually aimed their guns at the fighting mechas and began to lock onto the enemies one by one.

"Should we open fire, Captain?" the adjutant in the bridge asked after the lock was completed.

The gray-haired captain remained silent as he watched the mechas fighting each other on the screen. At this moment, the bridge hall was exceptionally quiet, and all personnel were waiting for orders.

1 秒

2 second 3 second

The captain never spoke, but stared at the two fighting parties. He held the armrest with his fingers embedded in it, still unaware of it.

At this time, another batch of cruisers opened their hatches, and another batch of gray iron shuttles flew out. They rushed into the atmosphere, and then a number of cutting-edge 'Fierce Red Falcon-A1' mechas flew out. At this time, a 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 retained a lot of troops to deal with possible subsequent crises.

"Turn the gun barrel and aim at the location where the mecha was launched on the ground, and bombard it."

"Yes!"

At this time, the starship in space turned its gun barrels again, aimed at the planet below, and then injected energy. After the blazing flames were lit, deep blue shield force fields 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 the bombardment, and at the same time release the bombing troops to eliminate the exposed targets."

"Yes!"

The last batch of gray iron heavy shuttles rushed into the planet's atmosphere. This time they were not carrying mechas, but were fully loaded with various bombs.

One after another, heavy bombs rushed into the earth's surface, sank into the earth's interior, and then exploded with a loud bang. The spreading waves lifted the earth, and the spreading ripples formed artificially induced earthquakes on the surface of the planet.

Earthshakers are aerial bombs specially designed to target underground defense facilities. With their destruction, the holes originally used to launch warheads and mechas were shut down one after another. Then more heavy shuttles flew over the earth, continuously dropping black bombs and clearing out targets along the way.

At this time, after the evacuation due to the alarm, there were not many innocent pedestrians on the streets and in the city. If there were any, the bombing troops would not be able to take care of them.

Countless historical buildings that had existed since the early days of the Federation were burned up in the flames, and the forest city built by the elves was slowly collapsing 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 that covered the entire world.

On March 3st, nine major inhabited planets in the Federation Central Star Region, including 'Tear Moon Crown', 'Green Rain Crown', 'White Feather-α', 'White Feather-β', 'Holy Feather-Σ', and 'Tikos-δ', experienced severe turmoil. In accordance with the latest bill passed by the Federal Central Parliament, the faction supporting 'Volcano Queen' Princko launched a blatant attack, destroyed the cities and defense bases where the elves gathered on these planets, and militarized these planets, besieging the remaining members of the elven faction.

After the attack, the Internet was cut off one after another on various residential planets in the central star field, and various local area networks were also interfered with and blocked, resulting in a state of no communication.

Fifteen days later, the elven faction defending the inner side of the planet surrendered. They were disarmed and escorted out. Taking into account the laws and justice of the Federation, these personnel were not executed, but placed under house arrest, awaiting a subsequent decision.

On April 4, representatives from the Western, Southern, Eastern, and Northern sectors of the Federation issued a stern warning to the ruling faction of the Federation Central, demanding that they immediately stop their attacks and brutal looting of the elven faction, saying that this went against the will of the "Flower of Golden Flame" Isenissa and was a blatant destruction of the foundation of the Federation. Under tremendous political pressure, the ruling faction of the Federation Central said that it would no longer launch attacks on various inhabited planets and that it would restore the severed communication network in five days.

"That means we still have five days." A general spoke in a low voice in the large command room inside the battleship.

"Yes, according to the response we published to each star region of the Federation, we must reopen the central star region network within five days, that is, before April 4th, to allow other star regions to send delegations to supervise and explore."

“These guys…” Faced with such a humiliating scene, several high-ranking military officers were furious, but there was nothing they could do. If it weren’t for the great defeat seven years ago that caused the Central Parliament to lose all its dignity, there wouldn’t be such a dire predicament today.

"There's no point in saying these angry words. Right now our primary goal is to capture 'White Rose Harp' Ewen Qilin. Only when she falls under our control can we truly control the Central Sector. Otherwise, once she escapes, coupled with the support of other sectors, all our previous efforts will be in vain in an instant." A politician with a serious expression walked 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 base of the Fourth Fleet. Even if we want to act with all our strength, we still have to take many things into consideration." Looking at the beautiful green planet outside the starship, the members present felt a great deal of psychological pressure.

Although the 'Flower of Golden Flame' 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 direct their spearheads at this singer. Instead, they try their best to separate the singer's historical status from the elves and not to be implicated.

Originally, Ivan Qilin should have lived in the 'Green Rain Crown' so that their attack would have the greatest chance of success. However, the elf faction hid a special starship inside the 'Green Rain Crown' and sent Ivan Qilin back to the living planet of the 'Double Tree Star Field' on this starship. This huge mistake almost made the entire operation fail. The only lucky thing was that Ivan Qilin had not yet broken through to the Sunday-level singer stage.

"If she has already reached the stage of a Sun-level singer, she only needs to make a call in the Twin Trees Star Region, and with the unanimous support of all the elves, it will be easy to raise the Sun Crown. At that time, we will have 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 blocking and cutting off the network in advance. On the other hand, the other party is really unable to handle the task and cannot break through under such circumstances. The one we support, Her Highness Princiko, is the one who is destined to succeed."

After going through the most sleepless first ten days, they are now gradually regaining their composure. There is no way out anyway, they can only go all the way to the end.

"Is the team ready for the advent?"

"The first batch is ready. Considering that we can't use starships to bomb directly, we have tried our best to gather enough people to land on the planet for ground combat. Currently, the first batch has 203728 people, the second batch will be about 50 combat troops, and the third batch will have 80 members later."

"Oh, the third batch won't arrive until the fourth day. It will be too late by then." An officer laughed, but the expression on his face did not relax at all, only depressed.

He took a deep breath and said, "That's it. We must go all out and capture Ewen Qilin."

"Yes!" The personnel on the scene began to take action, and various reports sounded one after another.

“第1-45登陆艇已经就位，第46-90登陆艇将在20分钟后进入轨道……”

"The blockade star mark has been set up and is in operation, blocking the hyperspace routes in and out of the planet."

"The throne system is in place. Her Highness Prinkoko will activate it in four sidereal hours. She will then attempt to raise the crown for the first time and determine Ewenkilin's exact location."

"Now, everyone arrive at the combat position and start action!"
