Chapter 1134 Win!
On the main battlefield, the mecha operators from the Federation's cheering could be heard outside of their c.o.c.kpit when they saw reinforcement coming their way.
Although these 2000 mechas couldn't really change the overall situation of the battlefield, the arrival of the reinforcements still gave the mecha operators more confidence and courage.
When an officer in the command center saw the reinforcement, he immediately yelled, “Commanding officer, the reinforcement from the Federation had appeared. They are currently coming from the direction where our two mecha clans went.”
“Show me.” The commanding officer had been waiting for their arrival.
‘Did you finally come? Let me see what you are made of.'
The screen at the command center quickly displayed the reinforcements.
‘Let me see how powerful you are.' The commanding officer had a thought. He immediately ordered. “Order all the stars.h.i.+ps to fire at the incoming mechas.”
All the stars.h.i.+ps quickly turned their bodies and directed their cannons at the mechas from Lingtian. Under the order of the various leaders, multiple cannons were fired.
“Ah! Incoming!” Everyone on the main battlefield, as well as the people watching from the base, shouted in fear of getting shot when they saw this.
However, the next scene utterly stupefied everyone on the Federation's side. It also caused a large crack in the already depressing atmosphere in Caesar.
The movements of the incoming mechas were strange. It didn't align with the normal sense. Everyone was flabbergasted. They moved agilely and pa.s.sed the swarm of shots.
Not only that, they cooperated well while doing so. They used their swords to block shots for their comrades. They basically performed a magnificent Dance of h.e.l.l performance for everyone to feast their eyes on.
Within a few seconds, the mechas broke through the swarm of shots and arrived at the main battlefield where the two armies were at.
However, not all the mecha operators were so disgustingly strong. The mecha operators in the back tried to dodge the shots but they were slower and less agile than the batch of mecha operators in front of them. Fortunately, they managed to evade the swarm of shots. Suddenly, something went terribly wrong.
“Oh no!” The soldiers from the Federation shouted worriedly.
The stars.h.i.+ps from Caesar quickly prepared for their second round of shots after seeing the failure of their first round.
This time however, they shot at the location where the mechas would land after escaping the swarm of shots.
It had to be said that the soldiers on the stars.h.i.+p were exceptional marksmen. Within a short amount of time, they were able to maneuver the position of the cannons and aimed it at the position that would be the most damaging to the enemy.
The shots flew towards the mechas. Were the mechas going to be destroyed before they entered the battlefield?
At that moment, the reinforcements had already arrived on the battlefield with their raised beam guns.
White-coloured beams flew through the deep s.p.a.ce, making it seem as if s.p.a.ce was segmented into multiple parts. As white-coloured beams got near the shots that were aimed at them, it exploded.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Explosions occurred in tandem. The dark s.p.a.ce lit up as if a supernova had just occurred.
“They aren't safe yet.” Before the people in the base could heave a sigh of relief, they realized that more shots were being fired at their comrades. The batch of 2000 mechas wasn't saved yet as they didn't have the time to stop the next round of shots.
The long-range beam guns had the fastest shooting speed out of all the beam guns. However, it had a fatal weakness. It wasn't able to fire multiple shots. Although it only required two seconds to congregate the energy, these two seconds were enough time for something to go terribly wrong.
Were their comrades really going to die?
Suddenly, multiple white-coloured beams were seen again. The beams collided with the second round of shots.
These white-coloured beams didn't come from the batch of 2000 mechas. It instead came from behind them.
A glaring white light pierced everyone's eyes as they quickly tried to cover their eyes to s.h.i.+eld them from it.
Those with good eyesight would be able to see that the white beam didn't come into contact with the shot. It sc.r.a.ped past the shots and ignited them, clearing a safe path in s.p.a.ce.
These explosions did generate tons of force but luckily the force wasn't strong enough to break through the s.h.i.+elds of the mechas.
The reinforcement quickly grabbed this window of opportunity and escaped from the gates of h.e.l.l using the safe pathway that was cleared. They finally entered the main battlefield.
“That's good.” The people in the base were relieved. Suddenly, their legs felt drained of their energy. They were so agitated and nervous while they were watching that their legs failed on them after they released all the tension from their bodies. They wondered if the mecha operators in the reinforcements were feeling the same way as they did.
However, they recalled that those mecha operators didn't seem to be in a flurry even in the face of danger. They were just calm and indifferent. Were they confident that they were able to escape from danger?
No matter what the reason was, these mecha operators were mentalily stronger than them.
The glaring white light finally subsided. Silence resumed on the battlefield. But, another batch of mechas had appeared behind the reinforcement.
Their appearance was unexpected. No one saw how they escaped from the swarm of shots. They just appeared from thin ‘air'.
There were not many mechas in this new batch of mechas. From the appearance of the new arrivals, they looked like long-range mechas and balanced mechas.
Everyone looked at the beam guns in the hands of the mechas and finally understood where those white-coloured beams came from.
There were around seven mechas in the new batch. They had emblems and numbers painted on their chests. Everyone saw the emblems and numbers clearly.
It was a black phoenix and the last few digits of the numbers were all ‘001'. They knew what the ident.i.ty of these mecha operators was. They were the leaders of Lingtian Mecha Clan. Their members were able to pa.s.s through the swarm of shots safely because they were there to protect them.
However, everyone's attention was on the mecha in the middle as it was the only mecha that didn't have the digits ‘ooi' at the end. Its number was even more astonis.h.i.+ng than 001. It was all zeros. This number represented the supreme commander of Lingtian Mecha Clan, Regiment Commander Ling.
“Black phoenix! It's Lingtian.” The mecha operators from the Federation shouted. Those that didn't recognize them recognized them from all these shouts.
“Those mecha operators are not normal ace mecha masters.” The commanding officer felt his heart dropping to his stomach. The worse situation had occurred.
After two rounds of shots, normal ace mecha masters would usually be heavily injured. Elite ace mecha masters would be in better shape but half of them would still be mildly injured. They would usually pay a deep price to get through that swarm of shots. However, none of the mechas from his opponents were destroyed.
Although the leaders of Lingtian had helped their members twice, he could tell that the piloting skills of the members were exceptionally great.
The commanding officer could feel that the tides of the battlefield were about to turn a 180.
Ling Lan placed the beam gun behind her back and took out Firmament.
She waved the sword in the air and pointed it in Caesar's direction.
“Charge!” A cold voice echoed in the ears of the mecha operators.
Everyone in Lingtian took out the swords from their sheaths and charged towards their enemies without any care of being surrounded.
“The retaliation has started.” While the mecha operators from the Federation were stunned by this scene, they heard Commander Yu Huan's calm statement from their channel.
“Charge!” All the mecha operators from the Federation didn't expect they could even retaliate when they received the order to battle. They were just carrying out the order even if it meant that they might die.
This was the mindset of the soldiers of the Federation. This was the reason why the other nations were fearful of them.
Under the lead of Lingtian, the mecha operators from the Federation rushed towards their enemies like a ma.s.sive tsunami.
The mecha operators that first reached their targets weren't the mecha operators of Lingtian who charged at the front, it was the leaders.
The opponents they chose were either the regiment commanders or leaders of the numerous Caesar mecha clans in the battlefield.
“Kill them!”
The two armies collided. Only the strongest would survive in this cruel and unforgiving battlefield.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The mecha operators from Lingtian were all very powerful. They were like reapers, reaping away the lives of all the mecha operators around them. They utterly decimated the first line of defense of Caesar.
The mecha operators behind the devils of Lingtian were astounded and shocked. Even until the end of the battle, they were still in a daze. They felt as though everything was a dream.
After the attack from Lingtian, the frontline of Caesar started crippling apart. By right, Caesar shouldn't be defeated so easily. They had more mechas than the Federation. However, the overpowering strength of the mecha operators from Lingtian destroyed their confidence.
They couldn't defeat the devils from Lingtian no matter how hard they tried, even when they outnumbered them. The impact of this failure was even greater than losing a one on one battle. Adding on to this, there was a bunch of long-range mechas controlling the situation.
They would snipe wherever they were needed. The mecha operators had to watch their comrades falling one by one. Yet, their opponents were still standing there confidently, taunting them… utterly humiliating them. This stark contrast of confidence and strength lowered their morale. As time went by, they started giving up.
“Commanding officer, the frontline can't hold on much longer.” The officer in the command center was pale in the face. He had a look of disbelief on his face. Just those bunch of mecha operators were able to turn the situation of the battlefield. This was totally unexpected.
“I know.” The commanding officer had a deadpan expression. He had been staring at the frontline all these while. In the end, the worst situation had happened. On the slightly ‘bright' side, it proved that Lingtian was a scary mecha clan that had the capabilities of a legendary mecha clan even though it wasn't a legendary mecha clan.
“Order everyone to retreat.” The commanding officer got what he wanted so he wouldn't carry on the battle anymore as it would just result in more losses.
The stars.h.i.+ps from Caesar released the signal for a retreat.
The mecha operators from Caesar seemed to be waiting for this moment as they quickly retreated without any hesitation.
“Ah, this is great!”
“We won!”
“We won against Caesar. We won!” Many mecha operators started tearing up while hugging the person next to them. They had been suppressed by Caesar for so many years. They finally succeeded in breaking away from Caesar's shadows.
While the other mecha operators were celebrating the victory, the mecha operators from Lingtian waved their swords unhappily. They turned around and looked at their regiment commander in hopes that he would order them to chase after their enemies.
“Regiment commander?” Qi Long was unwilling to leave too.
Ling Lan looked at the time on her communicator. Eight minutes was almost up. She said, “Let's go back to our base.”
“Yes, regiment commander.” The leaders could only agree with much regret in their hearts.
All the mecha operators from Lingtian put away their burning fighting spirit and gathered in their teams.
The other mecha clans wanted to express their grat.i.tude to Lingtian but before they could get near them, the mechas from Lingtian had left. They disappeared in an instant.
“Lingtian Mecha Clan is really arrogant.” One of the regiment commanders c hide his envy as he complained.
“If you can decide the outcome of a battle with just your presence, you can be arrogant too.” Someone didn't agree with what he said and refuted.
“It's just that we fought together so it's alright to greet each other, right?” The person explained quickly.
“When Lingtian came, we didn't welcome them. Hence, it's understandable that they will ignore us now.” The other person felt that they deserved the cold treatment.
“It seems like the rumor of Piercing Arrow getting defeated by them is true.” Someone suddenly recalled a rumor he had heard many months ago
“Based on their performance just now, even the Proud Wind Mecha Clan couldn't be compared with them. I suspect that the public information of Lingtian is fake. Isn't it just a first-rank five-star mecha clan? Or is it…” This prediction was too frightening. The regiment commander quickly stopped what he wanted to say.
While the regiment commanders were discussing among themselves, the mecha operators from Lingtian had already returned to their base. The mechas entered the launching ports orderly, and most of them managed to land stability before the first anti-collision belt.
