Chapter 329: Chapter 309: Exploding Star (Five in One)

In the dormitory late at night,

Su Ming lay on his bed, having finished washing up, pondering over the war he had watched today.

The only thing that could interest him now, other than mecha, was war.

At this moment, Rhein poked his head down from the upper bunk, speaking with indignant displeasure.

"Damn it, today’s war was so frustrating to watch."

"I really wanted to go up and fight them myself. If only we had advanced mecha!" Mandy angrily responded.

"Exactly, a bunch of animals."

At this moment, Mengka, with his rough features, bare-torsoed, and wearing black shorts, came out of the bathroom carrying a stainless steel wash basin, fervently agreeing.

"I’m telling you, it’s such a pity the Federation just watched the Neutral Country get defeated. The strength of those Imperial Army troops isn’t as terrifying as rumors say."

Then, Zhou Huai with a face full of acne and wearing black-rimmed glasses, sighed and said,

"Listen to me, I’m not underestimating the Imperial Army. After watching the entire war today, my mind was just in a blur. Did any of you understand the commands of the Imperial Army Commander?"

Zhang Yi scratched his head and asked.

"Didn’t get it. It felt like there weren’t even any commands. Wasn’t it just jumping in and saying, ’hit me, hit till death’? If it were me, I could do that too!"

"Exactly, it was purely a mess of commands. You see them winning, but no telling how many soldiers died."

"Ah, it feels like the Federation’s decision-making was flawed; they shouldn’t have ignored the Neutral Country and just watched the United Army get crushed."

Rhein echoed with a sigh.

Having heard this, Su Ming pondered for a moment and then asked,

"So if you were the decision-maker, what would you do?"

"If I were the decision-maker, I would send elite fighters and commanders to support the Neutral Country’s United Army all the way and fight the Imperial Army. There is definitely a chance of winning! Even if we can’t beat the Imperial Army, we can hold them off and wear them down there."

Rhein shared his thoughts.

"I think Rhein’s idea is great. We could certainly tie down the Imperial Army’s top forces, giving us a chance to fight!"

"Right, those Imperial Army guys are just so-so in strength; no need to mythologize them."

...

Zhang Yi and the others began discussing, exchanging opinions back and forth.

Su Ming listened to their debate, falling deep into thought.

While it was true that the Imperial Army defeated the United Army in less than a day, the war was not well fought.

Yet, he always felt something was off but couldn’t put his finger on it.

The main reason he couldn’t make a good judgment was that he knew too little about the Imperial Army and the related information was extremely scarce.

-----------------------------------

Center of the Danube Star Sea Anfas Royal City.

At this moment, gunfire reached the sky, and smoke billowed.

Outside the spired castle, Iron Guards painted with golden shield emblems were fiercely fighting with troops from the Skull Army that were storming in.

This group defending the spire was Fakier’s Royal Guard, each soldier handpicked and exceptionally strong in combat.

Beast Teeth Mecha that surged forward were ruthlessly taken down by the Iron Guards.

Even the overpowered Iron Guards who were severely damaged didn’t hesitate for a second, detonating themselves in a self-destruct mode to perish together with the Beast Teeth Mecha.

For a moment, the notoriously ferocious Imperial Army was forced to momentarily pause their assault.

"What a bunch of idiots; they can’t even deal with these small fry. All of you, get lost!"

A brutal voice rang out at that moment.

The multitude of Beast Teeth Mecha swiftly made way, and with a clang, a Third Generation Mecha·Beast emerged.

"Captain Vidton."

The multitude of Beast Teeth Mecha pilots said fearfully.

However, just then, a Green Wing Mecha wielding a pair of Beam Sabers also stepped out from the Royal Guard.

"State your name!"

Vidton twisted his neck and asked.

"Vice-Captain of the Anfas Royal Guard·Nuomai."

Nuomai declared without fear.

"Good, I’ll take your head!"

Vidton replied with a sneer and then controlled his Beast Mecha, leading the charge towards Nuomai.

"Kill!"

In an instant, a swarm of Beast Teeth Mecha excitedly followed suit.

Nuomai courageously piloted the Green Wing Mecha, leading his subordinates to meet the charge.

The two Third Generation Mecha collided, the massive shockwave sweeping out, and the troops from both sides mixed together once more in a brutal fight.

Just at this moment, several hidden underground passageways in the fallen Royal City opened, and groups of Iron Guards surged out, attacking the Skull Army, who were engaged in burning, killing, and looting, with madness.

"Kill, brothers!"

"Let’s go all out against them!"

...

At this moment, the elite troops still in the Royal City of the Anfas Empire didn’t care about their lives and unleashed unprecedented fighting strength.

Suddenly, fierce battles erupted all over the Royal City.

...

Inside the command room of the 5th-level Battleship·Akank,

Artud sat in his command chair, coldly observing the status of the Star Ascending Forces.

So far, everything was proceeding normally.

Within the Anfas Empire Main Star, except for the Royal City, the other four base cities had fallen.

At that moment, a virtual screen suddenly popped up with a communication image frame.

A large man with a beard, wearing a Third Generation heavy exoskeleton, reported anxiously,

"Lord Artud, the remnants of the Anfas Empire are still resisting desperately; we request reinforcement!"

Then, a large man wearing gray armored gear and with five black-gold teeth embedded in his mouth, his face ferocious, excitedly said to Artud,

"Lord Artud, the Star Ascending operation is nearing its end and we haven’t encountered any problems. Let me lead a team and finish them off!"
