The decisive battle for Kunlun City begins with a massive assault from billions of abnormal bodies against the city's defenses. Meanwhile, Lin Xian, isolated by a blizzard, reflects on humanity's endless struggle and his own role as the Sword Holder. His Mechanical Heart alerts him that the Star Dust Furnace is complete and awaits ignition, implying the fusion of his power with a world-ending Titan.

This was an unprecedented human city defense battle.

Under the polar day, the sky remained crystal clear, sunlight spilling over the near-transparent edge of the atmosphere, auroras blazing in myriad colors at the horizon.

Yet inside Kunlun City, almost everything was shrouded in darkness.

Not because of dark clouds, but because of the sky-filling smoke and the endless Flying Abnormal Bodies.

The defense shield was flickering with high-energy pulses thousands of times per second, acrid burnt smoke sweeping across the entire Polar sky like volcanic ash; from space, one could see the boiling gray clouds of smoke billowing outward.

From the glacial coastline thousands of kilometers away, endless Abnormal Bodies crawled up from the seabed onto land, as if guided by some will, advancing in formation toward the last human defense hub.

The S-Class creatures were like mobile storm centers; Atmospheric creatures in the sky and grotesque giant forms on land were coming with a momentum of pure annihilation.

These creatures seemed to have lost their individual consciousness, no longer bound by independent will, marching in strict unison.

In Kunlun City, the interstellar army was locked in brutal combat, Heavy Armored Mecha roared, and billions of automated weapons, under the control of high-speed information chains, surged back in counterattack.

There was no day or night; the white-hot endgame had been raging for sixteen days straight.

At the beginning, the fully completed Xuanwu Wall and high-energy defense shield meant the resistance faced no major threats; only mountain-like piles of Monster corpses had formed impact ramps hundreds of meters high on the ice plain.

But once the S-Class creatures drew close, the defense lines in each sector immediately came under crushing pressure.

Blizzards laden with ice crystals lashed the kilometer-high "Black Tortoise" giant wall, the ghastly pale polar sunlight piercing through the smoke to cast twisted shadows over the mountains of Monster carcasses.

"A1 Fleet, shift from coordinates G1254.21 to G1091.08 for full-ship maneuver; drop altitude by 1,000 meters, the Mica lightning field is stacking."

Mochizuki Masashi's voice echoed across the Silent City main ship bridge, his pupils reflecting the erupting torrents of Energy on the holographic sand table. As an ultra-high-compute AI Intelligent Brain, he had taken over all airspace command rights for the fleets in this sector; every tactical response was completed within milliseconds.

In the sky above, three colossal Atmospheric Mica creatures blotted out the sun, yet what was even more terrifying was the destruction-level spherical Lightning that poured down like rain onto Kunlun City's defense shield. Each explosion triggered a violent ionized shockwave, and with it the city's high-energy defense shield took another punishing hit.

The three hundred Reaper drones under Qian Suxun's control wove through the lightning net like silver shuttles:

"Ryuji, I've opened a gap in sector B7 for you!"

"Out of my way!" Tianye Lan's red Mecha "Red Lotus" tore open a chain of Lightning, her Plasma Cannon blasting straight at the Mica core: "Move, the Force Field can hold for at most three seconds!"

"On it."

Ryuji's twelve Metal Giants were reassembling a Giant Sword within Shi Zhi's azure barrier. He followed up, lifted his hand, and seized it; the Giant Sword thrust upward, piercing straight through the canopy of one Atmospheric Mica from below, instantly spraying a dense rain of blue blood!

"Protect Shi Zhi!"

"I'm fine, I'm fine!!" Shi Zhi, following behind Ryuji to support him, clenched her teeth as she spoke. The Power Armor on her body had been built for her by Lin Xian, with adaptive protection that allowed her to keep pace with these battle maniacs.

Several thousand meters away, the tens-of-kilometers-long Sky Dome Train hung in the air like a suspended blade, countless Drone Swarms orbiting around it like a gravitational ring.

On the bridge, Jian Xuwei's commands were as cold as blades: "Jiang Yun, clear the left wing!"

"Got it!"

Jiang Yun spread his arms and raised a tornado, shredding the spherical Lightning into Starfire.

Monica's Sound Roar Sword cleaved apart a diving Wing Demon; her blood-streaked blond hair snapped toward Qian Deli: "Slack off one more time and my next shot's aimed at you!"

"I really wasn't slacking—me flying is slower than me on the ground!"

Qian Deli turned into a golden blur streaking through the thunderstorm, lamenting to Xiao Meng:

"Xiao Meng, watch yourself, don't die on me—this is the last stage. Push through and we're off to roam the stars!"

Xiao Meng raised her hand and blasted apart a tendril: "Worry about yourself first!"

On the ground battlefield, on the defense platforms of the Xuanwu Wall, the dozens of lowest tiers were all interstellar army forces, while the platforms above were manned by combatants from the survivors, mainly to fend off Monsters attacking from the flanks by air, because this was where the defense shield was anchored, and their primary role was to help relieve the pressure.

Vroooom!

In front of the wall, an S-Class creature as colossal as a mountain, with dozens of massive legs like an underwater spider—"Sen Shui Tower"—was wildly spraying black acid at the wall. Wherever the acid landed, it transformed into billions upon billions of tiny spiders that could Devour Energy; in the blink of an eye they had consumed the electromechanical systems of a Planet Raider Mecha and then Decomposed this 60-meter-tall Mecha into a bare frame.

"Da Lou! The acid spray nozzle on Sen Shui Tower!"

Chen Sixuan's sniper round pierced through the giant spider's compound eye, her Power Armor streaking across the sky above the mountain of corpses. A hundred meters below, Da Lou's "Black Dragon" Mecha had just cleaved a Flying Demons from the air; hearing Chen Sixuan's shout, he looked toward the fanged maw of the giant spider, stepped forward, and in that instant unleashed his full Blood Energy together with the Black Dragon Mecha's propeller at maximum output. With a thunderous roar, he hurled the Steel-cutting Greatsword in his hands; the sword, brimming with Dark Energy Fluctuation like a shell, brutally punched through Sen Shui Tower's Biological Force Field and plunged straight into that maw.

Splurt!

The acid detonated, the giant spider letting out a frenzied screech as its dozens of massive legs hammered the carpet of corpses on the ice plain.

Just then, a Super Emperor Mecha over 300 meters tall crashed down from the sky, sending shockwaves rippling through the sea of corpses.

This Mecha crackled with raging electric shockwaves across its entire frame; the instant it landed, twelve Storm Missiles launched from its back, slamming directly into the body of that giant spider!
