Edge of the Apocalypse
Chapter 1176: Federal Intervention

It was another fierce battle.

After Midian fought Rabian at high altitude on the battlefield, the enemies were coming at him aggressively. Looking down from the sky, it was like a surging black tide. Faced with this black tide was the Iron Spear Guards from Spear City. They had received strict training from Hoey in order to go on the battlefield and kill their enemies like they did today. Although this was the first time facing a war of this magnitude, as long as Hoey was by their side, these young warriors would be able to erupt with unimaginable courage.

Billy temporarily handed over his spear from Orlando to Hoey. Hoey was dressed in gray armor and stood with his spear like a ten thousand year old snow mountain. He stood upright, unable to knock him down even with the monstrous waves.

As the black tide approached, Hoey raised his spear, his voice overshadowing any sound from the battlefield, "Iron Spear Guards, fight!"

The Iron Spear Guards in the front row removed the iron shields behind them and connected them into a row of shield walls. Behind him, a second row of warriors pushed forward and used the iron shield in their hands to raise the shield wall. Three rows of iron shields were stacked high in turn, forming a shield wall that was two meters tall. When the Kuroshio collided with the shield wall, it collided with a steel embankment. After blocking the first wave of attacks from the outsiders, a soldier immediately rushed forward with a spear in his hand. The spear pierced through the gap in the shield, creating a wave of blood in the Kuroshio.

"Gun Forest!" Drink more from Hoey.

The warriors behind him were lined up tightly. Everyone pointed their spears, and the bright spear forest formed a steel spear jungle. The Hoey Battle Spear pointed forward, and the forest of spears immediately moved forward. The warriors who formed the shield wall pushed forward forcefully, forcing the outsiders away a little before everyone withdrew their shields and retreated. Saber Demon, who was at the vanguard, thought that humans would withdraw their defenses. Everyone screamed and brandished their knives, charging forward or jumping forward.

Unexpectedly, after the shield wall was removed, it was followed by a dense forest of guns. The advancing Saber Demons immediately used iron spears to provoke the charging warriors. The warriors in the front row held onto their spears tightly and charged forward desperately. The Iron Spear Guards behind them raised their spears upside down and then tossed their sabers out.

In an instant, a rain of guns began to rain down on the battlefield.

The battle spears fell like a rainstorm towards the outsider vanguard. They easily pierced through the Saber Demon. From afar, the outsider's weapons fell in large numbers at almost the same time. At this time, the Iron Spear Guards in the front row were still rushing forward. The soldiers behind them rushed forward, one after another pulling out their spears from the corpses of the Saber Demons on the ground. They then rearranged their formation and let out almost identical shouts. Hearing this shout, the Iron Spear Guards lost their spirit and immediately pulled out their guns and retreated. Before the outsider soldiers could recover their breath, they stabbed the Iron Spear Guards in the back row.

The Iron Spear Guards took turns launching three waves of attacks with their unique tactics before retreating. When they withdrew to their positions, the outsiders discovered that the shield wall had been rebuilt. Following that, the battle just now resumed. The outsiders charged forward, defending against the humans, counterattacking, defending against the humans. Under Hoey's command, the two thousand Iron Spear Guards used precise and efficient tactical movements to constantly wear away the blood of outsiders.

On the artillery battlefield, Allen had already retreated from the third wave of the outsiders' offensive. Today, the outsiders had launched an all-out offensive, putting tremendous pressure on the human front. Even though the artillery battlefield was not the main theatre of operations, the endless offensive was still quite unbearable. Alan occasionally took time to look up into the sky. In the air was another battlefield, a battlefield belonging to the top experts.

Midian and the outsider superintendents did not have the ability to fly, but at their level, they were able to freely use the Origin Energy of space, and their perception was a hundred times more sensitive. During a battle, they could rely on the collision of their Origin Energy and even all the high-altitude air currents to achieve the goal of stagnating in the air for a long time. From the point of view of the ground, other than the flames from the collision, no one could see their postures. However, by sensing the fluctuations of Origin Energy in that region, one could roughly deduce the situation of the battle.

As a member of the Ten Saints, even though he was ranked at the bottom, with Midian's full strength, even though he could not defeat the foreign superintendents in a short period of time, Rabian was unable to interfere in the battle on the ground. This was the value of experts when the two armies clashed, shocking and even restraining the enemy's experts, thus allowing their own armies to fight in a relatively fair environment. It could be said that if Midian or Hoey were not present today, the imperial army that lacked top-notch combat power would probably be defeated on the spot.

Right now, there was another situation. Apart from Midian, Hoey was also present on the human side. With these two great experts in charge, even if the human army was insufficient, they would still be able to create an invincible situation.

Allen looked into the air again, and then returned to the ground. Another outsider expert rushed past the Iron Sharp Warrior's defensive line, attempting to charge into the position. He strode forward, waving his left hand, Dragon Flame, and his right hand, Red King. He brandished a blade, sword, and shadow, enveloping the invading enemy in his offensive. At this moment, the attention of the people in front of them, including Alan, was attracted to the battle. They didn't know that there were other eyes watching the battle on the ground from 10,000 meters above.

Hillfa sat in his seat and looked at the screen in front of him. The screen was filled with an epic war. Black waves continuously rushed towards the gray-white dam. Cannonballs and boulders danced in midair. All sorts of abilities and battle techniques flashed in every corner of the battlefield. Every second, fresh blood splashed everywhere. The tragic scene left Hillfa and all the Federation personnel in the command room speechless.

"Have you confirmed Alan's coordinates?" Hillfa's voice broke the silence in the command room.

"Yes, General. We've locked onto the coordinates of Alan Beskard. He's right below us, on the battlefield over there."

'"So there's a war going on here. What a strange planet. There are actually outsiders from the Yordon Domain …" Hillfa asked the crew to change their angle of view. As a result, the screen constantly enlarged the details of the battlefield, allowing people to clearly see that the Blade Demon, Gatu Berserker, Jana, and other outsiders that should only exist in the chaotic battlefield were currently inside the planet.

And judging from the weapons they used in the war, their civilization was clearly still at a very primitive stage. However, it wasn't just the outsiders, the humans were also like this. From this, it wasn't difficult to deduce that this was a very young planet. Planet Heaven was even younger than Earth.

"General, what should we do?" The adjutant standing beside him asked. He was referring to the outsiders on the ground, of course.

"We were not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the planet's natives," Hillfa whispered. "But those are Blade Demons, Gatu Barbarians, and sinister Ghanaians. On the other side are humans who are bleeding the same blood as us, and I need to get in touch with Mr. Allen as soon as possible. So this time, we probably have to break the rules."

"What do you mean?"

Hillfa stood up and looked at the faces of the outsiders in the scene, revealing an expression of hatred. "Charge all the turrets, saturate the outsiders on the ground, and kill them all at once!"

The order was quickly relayed.

As a result, all of the warships that were using stealth mode had entered the charging phase. After the preparations were completed, Hillfa personally issued the firing order. A moment later, dots of flashes suddenly appeared in the empty sky. The pressure of the high-energy beam quickly spread from the sky to the ground.

The soldiers on the battlefield didn't feel anything, but experts like Allen suddenly noticed the changes coming from the sky. Hoey, who was commanding the Iron Spear Guards, raised his head in shock. In his eyes, many destructive beams of light flew down from high up in the sky. Thousands of high-energy beams flew like rain. They drew beautiful trajectories in mid-air and landed in the main forces of the outsiders in a dense but precise manner.

After the rain of light disappeared, it was followed by a series of earth-shattering explosions. Countless fireballs rushed up from the ground, each representing the destruction of countless outsiders. Before the explosion was over, a rain of light came again. Three waves of rain of light almost plowed the battlefield several times.

Rabian's roar was mixed with terror and anger, but after seeing the main force on the ground being wiped away in a split second, he straightforwardly left Midian and threw himself into the vast western region in a sorry state.

Midian did not pursue, but floated back to the ground. When he landed on the human position, the ground was still spitting out flames into the sky.

Today's war ended in three waves of light rain that fell from the sky for no apparent reason.

Due to the consideration of humans, all the cannon strikes did not involve the battlefield near the human defense line, which allowed the outsider vanguards to survive. However, after the main force behind the target was instantly destroyed, the tremendous fear destroyed their fighting spirit. Adding on Rabian's escape, these outsider vanguards had no intention of continuing to fight. They all turned around and fled.

Hoey did not have the mood to chase after the deserters. He kept looking at the empty sky, his brows tightly knitted together. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he could not see through the secret in the sky.

"Let's do this first. Mr. Allen's predicament has been resolved for the time being. We only need to find an opportunity to meet him alone next." Hillfa sat back down and said indifferently, "Get out of here and find a place to hide. Don't let the natives of this planet discover our existence."

"Yes, General."

The invisible starship left the sky above the battlefield. After that, Hoey, who had not discovered anything unusual, gave an order to retreat after exchanging a heavy look with Saron.

The soldiers discussed the mysterious but powerful rain of light. Some said that it was the secret weapon of the empire, others said that it was an expert who did not want to show his face, and others said that it was a sanction imposed by the gods on outsiders. But no matter what, very few soldiers died today, and most of them survived. To the warriors, being able to leave the battlefield alive was better than anything else.
