Chapter 851 Back-up Support! (Thank you to Alliance Master bao zi jia de a huang for the 130,000 reward!)
Outside the Beacon Star, in the outer reaches of space, a colossal dragon, akin to a flagship, soared amidst the battlefield. Its slender form was enshrouded in a multitude of vibrant magical arrays, deflecting all incoming cannon fire, leaving a trail of explosive light in its wake.
Milizaus flapped his wings, his immense body charging headlong, his inner magic surging, wantonly unleashing endless streams of offensive spells, stirring up a magical maelstrom on the battlefield.
Two minuscule figures accompanied Milizaus. "Photon" Sagman pulsed with golden light energy, erupting again and again, constantly shattering Milizaus's protective spells, while "Theurgy" Niger unleashed spells to directly clash with Milizaus. The two were entangling him.
Due to his enormous size, Milizaus possessed poor dodging ability, practically a sitting duck. However, there were pros and cons. His durability was almost unmatched among all mages, and his strength was exceptionally robust, augmenting his spell power. While Sagman and Niger could hinder him, they were basically evenly matched for the time being.
The three Super-As roamed and fought fiercely on the battlefield, and the surrounding fleets suffered, with warships being constantly destroyed by the aftershock.
"Two troublesome fellows…" Milizaus's dragon eyes were filled with solemnity. Sagman's strength was the greatest among the six opponents, coupled with another Super-A mage, making him exceedingly difficult to deal with.
Although he could fight the two simultaneously, he couldn't free up his hands to support Black Star.
"The goal of these two guys is to entangle me, the strongest point. But it can also be regarded as me hindering two opponents. But there are still four people on Black Star's side. Even if I go to help, these two will follow, just as dangerous… Alas, there's no way. I hope Black Star and Beaon can hold on, I can't help…"
Milizaus felt helpless. Even though he was extremely strong, one of the three pillars of the empire, the two Super-As of the enemy could not be underestimated, and he had to concentrate on dealing with them, unable to break away.
If he hadn't waded into this muddy water at the beginning, he wouldn't have been caught up in this crisis…
Regret over his choices, anger at the enemy, and worry about his situation surged into Milizaus's heart. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He looked up to the sky and spewed out a world-destroying, dark-golden magical dragon breath, colliding with the light-energy shockwave released by Sagman, exploding into a vast expanse of brilliant fireworks.
"Heh, our four companions are dealing with your two, Black Star won't last long. The battle over there will end soon. Your current resistance is meaningless. Why not give up resistance and join our Void Spirit Religion? This is your only way out. You're not a direct descendant of the empire, there's no need to die for them."
At this time, Niger used a spell to transmit sound, and his sneering words echoed in Milizaus's mind.
Responding to him was an even more surging dragon breath.
"Humph, sure enough, he won't compromise." Niger's eyes turned cold, and he casually released a huge magic shield to block the dragon breath.
Sagman said lightly: "Then let's act according to the plan. He thinks we just want to entangle him. We'll create an opportunity to use the All-God Scepter later."
"Okay!"
At this time, Milizaus didn't know that he, like Black Star, was one of the targets of the Void Spirit Religion!
…
In the thin air above Beacon Star, Han Xiao and Beaon also engaged with Sisko and the other four.
The moment the battle began, Han Xiao activated Reynold's character card without saying a word. The mechanical force in his body seemed to have taken an aphrodisiac, swelling up violently.
Perfect Mechanical Sense!
The usage limit of this character card was three times, and it had already been used twice. This was the last time!
The 1.4x increase in mechanical affinity instantly elevated the level of mechanical force enhancement to a new level. The densely packed mechanical legions around him immediately opened fire, and their attack power soared under the influence of the mechanical force. The barrage composed of energy cannons directly sealed off the sky.
The four of them acted instantly. Dillon's eyes flashed blue, and a huge amount of seawater gushed out from his body surface, forming growing water dragons that surrounded the group, turning into a barrier. Under his control, the water was extremely compressed, and the water curtain seemed to become a hard shield.
Sisko didn't idle either, releasing psychic power to cover the water curtain barrier, forming multiple shields.
Bang bang bang bang!
Rounds of focused fire bombarded the water curtain and psychic shields. The shields shattered constantly, but were continuously replenished by Sisko and Dillon, blocking most of the attacks. In cooperation, the mechanical troops needed to break through the defenses of two Super-As.
And the enemy's four would not stand still and be beaten, and they moved at high speed.
"Wild Beast" Metes was a seven-meter-tall gray-black beastman. His appearance was like an upright wild beast, with dense mane growing from the top of his head along his spine to his tail. His whole body was muscular, wearing a simple special armor, wrapped in a majestic green martial arts aura, like a meteor rushing towards them.
Han Xiao had already deployed his mecha, covering his whole body. He had fought Heber before, and he was experienced in dealing with charging iron-headed babies. He constantly changed his position, manipulating the mechanical troops to intercept his opponent, always keeping a distance from Metes.
Facing four powerful enemies, Beaon beside him did not dare to slack off, constantly urging his abilities. His main target was Dillon, igniting large areas of seawater and turning them into a sea of flames. The water curtain and the sea of fire collided and turned into large masses of white mist.
At this moment, both Han Xiao and Beaon felt strange spatial fluctuations, and they all looked up. "Boundary Gate" Taylordy held a staff, his lips moved, as if he was chanting spells quickly. A giant magic circle appeared in the sky behind him, and the glowing patterns were as complicated as branches and vines.
Rumble—
The sound of a palace gate being pushed open echoed in the ears of the two of them. The next moment, the magic circle behind Taylordy split open from the middle and turned into a huge circular gate of light.
The gate of light was a dark world, with dense firefly-like red spots of light shining in the darkness, like the eyes of some kind of creature.
"This is… a summoning magic circle!" Han Xiao's eyes narrowed.
"ruA!!!"
In the next second, countless bizarre, blood-red creatures roared and surged out of the gate of light, like a scarlet torrent, the scene like a flood!
These creatures looked like mutated giant bats, with claws and bone spurs, horns on their heads, and two pairs of blood-red eyes on their faces, which could emit red lasers. This appearance seemed to be related to demons.
After these summons appeared, they immediately found the mechanical troops, and the two sides fought in mid-air.
Flesh and blood collided with machinery, flowing blood and oil, and broken pieces of flesh and damaged parts fell like rain.
Taylordy was a mage, and his specialty was summoning magic, hence his nickname "Boundary Gate."
"Summoning mage, it's very unfavorable for me…" Han Xiao gritted his teeth secretly.
The legion-type mechanic and the summoning-type mage were known as the two major rogues, both using human-sea tactics, but the difference between the two was that the mechanic spent money and could build machines in advance and lay them out instantly, while the summoning-type mage could only summon babies slowly in battle, burning mana.
Now that Han Xiao's mechanical troops had reached the scale of tens of millions, Taylordy would need a very long time to summon summons of the same scale. At this time, the first batch of summons could not cause much damage to the mechanical troops… But if Taylordy was not stopped from continuing to cast spells, more and more summons would sooner or later be able to fight against the mechanical legions, greatly weakening Han Xiao's advantage in human-sea tactics.
If it was a one-on-one fight, Han Xiao had a dozen ways to interrupt the opponent's summoning, but now it was a group fight, two against four. He was restrained by the enemy, and the difficulty of preventing Taylordy from casting spells increased geometrically.
"The martial artist's assault puts pressure on me, the psychic and the control-type ability user output while controlling the field, so that the summoning mage has no pressure… This is really a good combat configuration."
Han Xiao's heart was heavy, and the enemy was obviously prepared.
Beanon also understood this, his eyes burning with fire, and he treated the summons as the target of his abilities.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
His AoE ability was also excellent, and pieces of summons were ignited without resistance, turning into falling fireballs.
"I'll deal with him."
Dillon said, manipulating seawater to surge towards Beaon, and surging oceans stretched out tentacles of water to squeeze away the mechanical troops blocking the way.
He stepped on the waves, and his legs bounced, like a cannonball fired out of the chamber, rolling up swirling fine water droplets, and shot towards Beaon across the waves.
Beanon's whole body was ablaze with flames, and the blood that once belonged to the Flame Demon race was boiling. He opened his mouth and spewed out scorching red flames, instantly evaporating large areas of seawater, and collided with the seawater sprayed by Dillon in mid-air.
Fire and water, red and blue, both sides refused to show weakness, and under the support of the two sides' majestic strength, they stalemated each other, releasing a large amount of water vapor.
The vast white mist spread rapidly, and the vision was hindered, but this had no impact on the Super-As.
Han Xiao had no time to care about him. Only one of the opponents was going to restrain Beaon, while Sisko, Metes, and Taylordy came to besiege him together.
Facing the pressure of three Super-As at the same time, the damage to the mechanical troops continued to increase. Fortunately, there was the bonus of Perfect Mechanical Sense, otherwise the loss rate would be faster.
Han Xiao himself was in a mess, constantly dodging the attacks of psychic power, magic, and martial arts fluctuations, without time to breathe.
With his current strength, fighting three Super-As at the same time was really beyond his capabilities. Super-As were all strong men with rich combat experience, and they cooperated very tacitly. The combat power they exerted was not as simple as addition. He spent ninety percent of his time dodging and defending, very passively.
While Sisko and the other three were chasing Han Xiao, they also attacked the mechanical troops in a big way. They had read the information and knew that Han Xiao had the title of "Undying Black Star."
Although they believed that under the joint efforts of several people, Black Star would lose the title of "Undying," only by removing the obstacles of the mechanical troops could they have a safe output environment. After all, the mechanical legions were indeed very threatening… With the bonus of Perfect Mechanical Sense, coupled with the true damage of [Legendary Combat Technique], if they were careless, they might be severely injured by Black Star at any time.
Therefore, Sisko and the other three took special care of Han Xiao's mechanical troops.
One mechanical soldier after another was blown up by the attacks of the Super-As, and then pulled back by Han Xiao's [Abandoned Modification], as if it had become a tug-of-war.
"Things are going to be bad if this goes on…" Han Xiao secretly cried out while dodging attacks.
Although he could repair the mechanical legions, he still had a limited number of times. There were four Super-As on the other side, and his mechanical troops would definitely not be able to outlast them.
If all the mechanical troops were killed, he would become a toothless tiger. Even if he was strong, he would have no ability to resist.
…
The Beacon Star guards and the Void Spirit Religion fleet were fully engaged in battle, and the sky and the ground were all battlefields.
Milizaus's armed dragon guards had already joined the battle, and one heavily armed giant dragon after another was fighting with warships, tearing apart each other's outer armor and dragon scales.
Hela, Haddawe, Fording, and other guards of the Black Star Army also joined the battle in outer space, helping the empire's fleet resist the several times larger Void Spirit Religion warships.
One Calamity Grade cadre after another shuttled through the warship formations, using their respective abilities to destroy enemy ships one after another.
Although they wanted to help Han Xiao, they had self-knowledge. The battle of the six Super-As was not something they could interfere in. Going there would only be cannon fodder and would drag them down. All they could do was fight alongside the imperial fleet.
And the guards were all elite Calamity Grades, and they could shine on the battlefield.
In addition to sending out Super-As, the Void Spirit Religion also sent a group of Calamity Grade combat forces to accompany the army, but the number was not as large as the empire's side.
The Calamity Grades on both sides quickly found each other and fought as high-level combat forces.
Haddawe endured a massive amount of attacks and slashed wildly at a hostile Calamity Grade.
Fording manipulated psychic power, turning and moving between the crisscrossing energy beams, his posture elegant, and his psychic power accurately hit the target time after time.
Hela was even more open and closed. Such a huge battlefield was providing her with dead souls all the time, constantly, allowing her strength to increase rapidly.
Without reservation, dark red death energy spewed out like a tsunami, completely overwhelming the combat power. Before long, Hela killed her opponent and absorbed his dead soul.
She took the opportunity to glance at the battlefield in the high altitude of Beacon Star. The six people, including Han Xiao, were fighting there, and the released aftershocks were too terrifying, and it had become a restricted area.
“… You must not die.”
Hela bit her lip, did not stop, and decisively turned her head to find the next enemy.
…
The high-altitude battlefield of the six people was constantly moving, and the fierce battle was fierce. The summons became larger and larger, and conversely, the number of mechanical troops was constantly declining.
The two became more and more passive.
Han Xiao had also been attacked a lot, but his recovery ability was strong, so it didn't have much impact.
But Beaon was different. He didn't have a very strong physique, and he had almost no defensive means against Sisko's psychic attacks. He could only barely hold on, and the situation was getting worse and worse.
"This guy is not going to make it…" Looking at Beaon, who was covered in wounds, Han Xiao's heart kept sinking.
This teammate was his only help at the moment. If he was killed, he would have to face four Super-As alone. At that time, he might not even have room to maneuver.
At this moment, Sisko and the other four exchanged glances and suddenly launched a more violent offensive against Han Xiao.
Whoosh!
A white jade beast statue summon hundreds of meters high spewed out a gray beam of light at Han Xiao, which was extremely destructive. This was Taylordy's elite summon.
Han Xiao hurriedly twisted his body to avoid it. The fact that he possessed Void bloodline had already been written into the information, and Void leap was targeted by the enemy.
As a Super-A mage, Taylordy was naturally proficient in multi-dimensional energy control—this was the basic skill for summoning mages to communicate with summons. As long as Han Xiao entered the Void dimension, he would be forced out by the opponent's spells before long, unable to maintain the Void leap state for a long time, and could not escape.
In fact, when the Void Spirit Religion fleet appeared, the Void dimension leap could no longer help Han Xiao escape. Even if he abandoned everyone and leaped away alone, the Void Spirit Religion's spacecraft would not be slower than him in terms of leap speed. He would soon be caught up and would be alone.
Avoiding the beam of light, psychic power and water dragons swept towards him. Han Xiao opened the psionic shield, defending and dodging.
At this moment, a figure appeared in front of him as if teleporting. It was Metes, and his fist with a burning aura slammed down.
"Is this the instant body technique that Heber used?" Han Xiao was startled and hurriedly made a blocking posture.
However, the next moment, the falling fist penetrated Han Xiao's body like a phantom, without any real feeling, proving that the person in front of him was an illusion.
"Damn it!" Han Xiao immediately reacted, his face changed, and he hurriedly looked towards Beaon.
As expected, Taylordy used a spell to confuse him, and the real Metes turned his head and approached Beaon in the breath concealment technique, and punched out a sky full of fist shadows in Beaon's panic-stricken expression.
Bang bang bang!
Beanon was hit hard in a row, and his injuries worsened rapidly. The other three immediately changed their targets and launched an offensive against Beaon at the same time, as if they had agreed in advance!
If he was hit by the focused fire of four Super-As, Beaon would probably enter a near-death state with his current injuries.
Whoosh!
At the critical moment, Han Xiao couldn't care about so much, and used the restrained Void leap, teleporting in a hurry to Beaon's face—this distance could still be completed.
Then, Han Xiao directly pushed Beaon behind him and faced the combined blow of the four Super-As.
Bang!
The mecha shattered, and his health dropped a lot in an instant!
Han Xiao's vision blurred, followed by a sharp pain all over his body. He was knocked out like a baseball and spun and rolled in the air.
The mechanical troops hurriedly disregarded the casualties and blocked Sisko and the other four from pursuing, so that he had time to stabilize his body.
Enduring the severe pain in his wound, he looked at his plummeting health value.
"This damage is too terrible. If I hadn't blocked it urgently, Beaon would have been finished…"
Han Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart. This time, he really became a meat shield for a fragile teammate.
Beanon hurriedly retreated to Han Xiao's side, supported his body, and said hoarsely: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm not that easy to die. Don't forget what my nickname is."
Han Xiao shook off his hand, took a breath, and urged his cell regeneration ability to gradually recover from his terrifying injuries.
"Thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died…" Beaon's tone was full of gratitude, and then became a little sad, "No, we are still doomed to die, but it's only a matter of time."
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Everyone will die." Han Xiao couldn't help but glance at him.
"…"
Beanon was choked, and he looked helpless. You are still in the mood to joke at this time.
But then, Han Xiao shook his head, his tone sonorous and powerful.
"But our death is not today!"
Sisko and the other four Super-As were planning to take advantage of the victory to pursue. Taylordy suddenly paused, uncertain, and said:
"Wait, I sensed a strange magical fluctuation approaching through the sub-dimension… So powerful!"
At this moment, the space not far away suddenly twisted, and a teleportation gate that kept expanding appeared.
At this time, the empire's wormhole countermeasure device had already been turned off. Taylordy wanted to use space magic to counter this suddenly renewed teleportation gate, but found that the magical fluctuation of this teleportation gate far exceeded all the mages he had ever seen!
Taylordy was shocked. With his ability, he couldn't stop the formation of the teleportation gate?!
The next moment, a huge castle wrapped in hazy magic light jumped out of the teleportation gate.
"Why is he here?!"
Sisko's eyes widened. As a Super-A in the Shattered Star Ring, he was too familiar with this thing.
It was the Arcane Church!
Austin floated on top of the castle of the Arcane Church, and behind him were densely packed red-robed forbidden witches, all staring at everyone.
He straightened his ill-fitting wide robe, with a strange smile on his face.
"Oh, am I late?"
