Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy Chapter 1505: 21: Piercing the Star with One Strike

As the claw blade violently launched, the Red Flame instantly surged upwards.

Shura’s extended neck gradually retracted, its gaze fixing upon the colossal Star Body Fortress directly ahead.

Mu Fan’s pupils mirrored the half-mechanical, half-organic Star Body Fortress.

In that fleeting moment, it was akin to a projectile piercing through a viscous fluid, creating a massive vapor cloud that unfurled with ferocious speed in every direction.

The crimson flames erupting from the four engines faltered, being forcefully compressed and shortened to a mere third of their previous length.

With significant force, the claw blades converged into a sharp conical shape, and the mecha executed a sudden, rapid spin.

The constrained tail flame trailing behind finally broke free from its confinement and erupted.

The mecha unleashed a colossal tail flame, its diameter exceeding one hundred meters.

And in that precise instant, this super-sized tail flame, spanning over a hundred meters in diameter, began to whirl with immense velocity.

A correspondingly immense fiery tornado bloomed in the vacuum of space, its grandeur comparable to Archibald’s renowned technique, [“Chaotic Flow”].

“Charge!”

In response to Mu Fan’s frigid command, the gigantic fiery tornado instantaneously stretched out, spanning nearly ten thousand meters!

A distinct corridor of pure flame unfurled across the starry expanse.

As for Shura’s physical form, it had long since vanished from sight.

Observers could only perceive a sharp crimson line instantaneously streaking through their field of vision!

Leading this crimson line was a gargantuan red drill, boreing relentlessly towards the Star Body Fortress.

At that very moment, Mu Fan closed his eyes. His visual perception had been utterly overwhelmed by the initial velocity, which surpassed 3000 rotations per second.

From the inception of this maneuver, there was no possibility of retreat.

The sheer momentum of the charge precluded any turning back!

“Pierce through everything before me!”

In this critical juncture, Mu Fan and Shura became one entity, experiencing the mecha’s fervent vitality and unbridled ferocity; he released his own defiant roar towards the adversary.

Before reaching Winter Tree Star, all impediments—

Regardless of their identity!

Irrespective of their power!

He was determined to—shred them all to pieces!

Shura’s silhouette instantly vanished from all surveillance systems.

“Target lost from optical lock.”

“Captured momentarily by ship number 17.”

“Instantaneous speed: 70 Mach, 150 Mach, 200 Mach, 300 Mach…”

“Rotational velocity cannot be accurately estimated.”

“Anomalous fluctuations are detected in the space surrounding the flame drill.”

“A spatial storm has manifested.”

“Spatial storm overwhelmed by the flame storm.”

“My heavens…”

The soldiers of the Federation stood transfixed, gazing at the mecha as it tore through the starry sky, an event they perceived as nothing short of a miracle.

Cold sweat involuntarily beaded on their backs.

The terrifying might, far exceeding a planetary impact, left them gasping for air and sent shivers down their spines.

Fourth Gate Realm, [Hell Raid—Roaring Red Lotus]!

The vast distance of 150,000 meters was traversed in mere moments during Shura’s unstoppable advance.

Before their expressions of awe could even be vocalized, the crimson flames of the rampaging dragon had already reached their destination.

The crossed drill formed by the dual claw blades made direct contact with the Star Body Fortress.

The fortress’s shield persisted for less than a thousandth of a second before being savagely breached.

The alloyed surface, spanning over 500 meters in diameter, instantly disintegrated and vaporized!

As if attempting to escape through an underground conduit, a massive creature, newly fused with the structure, furiously surged forth; the conduit was immediately obliterated by countless claw blades.

An eruption of blood mist ascended, promptly consumed by the inferno.

Shura plunged ferociously into the fortress’s core.

All defensive emplacements and metallic barriers offered no resistance against the terrifying fiery tornado, being savagely ripped asunder.

Shura, spinning with unparalleled speed, pierced cleanly through!

In 1 second, 13,000 rotations completed!

As those resplendent red flames burst forth from the opposite side of the Star Body Fortress.

2 seconds, having traversed 150,000 meters.

In a single second, it had brutally bored through more than 10,000 meters of the Star Body!

At this moment, time itself seemed to pause as a gentle crimson flame slowly emanated from the mecha’s form…

“This…”

Boom!

Instantly, a colossal Red Lotus bloomed vertically in the celestial void.

The amplified chaotic flow, magnified thousands of times in that critical moment, even impacted Archibald’s fleet.

Although no sound accompanied it, they bore witness to the resonant “roar” of that Red Lotus!

Every soldier’s body involuntarily convulsed with a violent shudder.

Their faces were etched with profound astonishment.

They clearly observed the massive Star Body Fortress reduced to mere dust in an instant, much like a projectile creating cavitation upon piercing a barrier.

A super-sized Star Body Fortress, ten kilometers in diameter, appeared as though it had been swept aside by a comet hurtling through the cosmos.

The spectacular display, akin to a stellar explosion, moved even the most stoic of warriors.

What surged from the depths thereafter was an irrepressible tide of exhilarating passion.

[Is this the indomitable spirit of human defiance!]

“Hahaha, vile insects, detestable invaders.”

“A pack of scum, hahaha, utter trash!”

The Federation soldiers offered their fervent cheers towards the mecha, a force that was neither ally nor enemy.

In this precise moment, they were cheering for humanity itself!

Their elation stemmed purely from humanity’s unyielding triumph.

At this very moment, no matter one's position.

The debris, violently flung by the blooming Red Lotus and propelled by the fiery tornado's momentum, surged forward with immense force.

Shura, undeterred, stood at a distance, allowing the Red Flame to caress his form.

Mu Fan's tightly shut eyes slowly unsealed, his gaze sweeping indifferently across the scarlet panorama before him, a cold, sharp curve gracing his lips.

He elevated his right arm to a horizontal position, palm facing downward, and opened his hand.

Emerging from the crimson Fire Cloud, a formidable black Big Halberd descended, fitting perfectly into his grip.

The chilling, ferocious, and malevolent wave of consciousness had vanished entirely the very instant he breached the fortress!

He had managed to forcibly halt the teleportation initiated by that unknown, powerful Zeg!

From the moment Shura pierced through to the fortress's utter destruction and the subsequent finality of the event.

The total elapsed time was barely a fleeting ten seconds.

The Zeg legions, which had been charging with savage intensity, abruptly halted in unison, their heads swiveling simultaneously.

A flicker of bewilderment manifested within their fierce, multifaceted eyes.

Information, relayed through successive levels, was completely severed.

The data from all high-tier insectoid bodies was utterly erased.

They were now utterly devoid of their strategic objective.

The remaining conflict would be relegated to the Bone-faced Insect Beasts, reduced to mere fragments.

These insectoid creatures reacted with remarkable speed, or perhaps their near-perfect evolutionary path towards slaughter had bestowed upon them the universe's most potent physique and combat instincts.

Yet, in that precise moment, they were uncontrollably rendered inert.

For a blood-forged contingent that had resisted these insect beasts for an entire year, that momentary pause was utterly catastrophic!

The purple tempest, intricately formed by dispersing rhombic crystals, under the masterful command of Archibald, continuously swept back and forth across the battlefield!

Spearheaded by the mighty Great Demon God [Catastrophe], the Federation Fleet commenced an unbridled slaughter of the Zeg forces.

No Bone-faced Insect Beast could penetrate the formidable force field established by [Catastrophe].

This, in turn, permitted the Federation Fleet's formidable firepower to finally unleash its pent-up fury.

The entity experiencing the most profound despair on the battlefield at this juncture had to be… Cornelles.

As a highly esteemed commander hailing from the Glorfen family.

Serving as the paramount commander for the vengeful expedition dispatched by the Forest Domain's Glorfen clan.

His burgeoning ambition, which had only just begun to surface, was now brutally and decisively extinguished!

“This was meant to be my moment of glorious victory; how could it possibly devolve into… such a dire state.”
