Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy Chapter 1650 9: History Deserves to Be Sung
Previously on Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy...
Steel streaks across the sky like meteors.
"Those damned imperial dogs!"
"Filthy..."
Slap!
A fierce slap landed on that person's face.
In the underground square of No.1 City Zone, a noisy man clutched his face, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, his eyes almost murderous.
"Shut your filthy mouth! Look at the people you call runaway cowards, see what they are doing!"
Another strong man grabbed the noisy man's collar directly, his scarlet eyes stared at him, veins bulging on his arms.
The noisy man's vision went black, and under the sheer difference in physical strength, he was lifted off the ground, his throat choked by the collar, his hands desperately slapping the strong man's arm.
"Let go... me..."
"Let go of your mother!"
With a bang, the strong man head-butted him, causing blood to gush from his head.
"I remember everyone was dead, it was them who saved us! I also saw, now they are rushing towards the insect swarm without hesitation, while all you can do here is talk! You're worse than a woman!"
The surrounding eyes all looked over simultaneously.
The meaning in those eyes was clearly interpreted by the noisy man.
Contempt, disgust, hatred...
"Say another word and I won't wait for the insects, I'll kill you first!"
The noisy man was thrown down hard.
The crowd around him looked at him expressionlessly.
Trembling, his face flushed red, but ultimately he didn't dare say another word.
First, a little girl clasped her hands together on her chest, followed by her parents, and gradually spread to the entire crowd.
Under all the city zones on the planet, all the people involuntarily made this gesture.
It was a prayer for their heroes.
In the face of the war for the extinction of the race, the imperial soldiers they once saw as enemies were now rushing towards the insect swarm without hesitation.
With their... flesh and blood!
[Come on...]
[You must win.]
Tears welled up in people's eyes as they watched their heroes transform into a giant spear, finally meeting that enormous insect swarm.
...
The fleet plunged into the insect swarm like a drill breaking through rocks, layers of warships surrounding the central starry sky mother ship, forming a giant drill, piercing into the swarm fiercely.
In the silent light screen, there was no narration, no gunfire.
A deathly silence that was terrifying.
But within everyone's chest, their hearts pounded.
They couldn't hear Mu Tianhua's speech before commanding the starships to charge, but through these steel warships, they could see that relentless determination.
The fleet met with the nebula-like insect swarm.
Visibly, the escort ships around the massive "drill" exploded into dust in an instant, extending outward in rings.
The enveloping fleet drilled fiercely into the flesh swarm.
Countless flashes of light bloomed within, blood mist scattered, as if a planetary explosion.
In the face of billions, or tens of billions, of insects, the fleet seemed so tiny.
Even if their firepower was enough to annihilate any planet, in front of those mindless insects, the pouring energy bullets seemed like a never-ending mechanical motion.
Intense tremors came from underfoot.
Madly flashing red alarms sounded on the bridge.
On the 360° battle light screen, metal filled the view, whether whole warships or shattered debris.
In such a high-spec starship battle, the loss every second was extremely shocking.
In other words, everyone's life began counting down in seconds.
[19th layer of escort fleet peeled off.]
...
[17th layer peeled off.]
...
Each cold prompt represented the deaths of nearly ten thousand soldiers.
Within the flagship, all the imperial soldiers pressed their lips tightly.
They were deep in a desperate situation.
Perhaps the next moment would be their deaths.
But every pair of eyes burned with a certain light.
Loyalty is life!
My body is the glory!
"We've pierced the outermost defensive line, now encountering the hard bone insect swarm, damage rate increased by 20%!"
Major General Li Luo looked at the snowballing numbers, his voice icy.
"Gardot is immortal!——"
"13th fleet layer sends mother ship on a raid!"
The blood-curdling howls echoed through the communication link, the defensive fleet layer built by heavy cruisers accelerated suddenly, charging!
From space, the massive insect swarm "star body" already wrapped into a sphere expanded abruptly.
Then, metal fragments surged out from the gaps in the insect formations.
Every charge was like fearlessly facing fire as ants.
Knowing it's death, yet they proceeded one after another.
The Gardot fleet finally completely merged into the insect swarm.
Billions, hundreds of billions of insects behind, a large, white, plump worm lay on the back of a Corruptor.
Three pairs of compound eyes exuded a treacherous and vicious light, staring at the nebula of the insect clan ahead, if seen up close, one could even see a smugness within.
In the satellite monitors, at this moment, the insect swarm wrapped into an increasingly giant "star body," no more signs of any warships visible outside. Only occasional flashes of fire and metal floods proved the intense battle happening within.
Under the underground city of Loga Star, nearly half of the millions were already tears streaming down their faces.
Knowing death but still rushing to die, that majestic scene like moths to a flame, was reminiscent of the shock when looking up at the starry sky for the first time.
"Mom, I don't want them to die. That commander uncle gave me bread. Boo-hoo..." a six-year-old girl hugged her mother, sobbing softly.
"They won't die, they won't die..."
The mother comforted her daughter through tears.
...
Mu Tianhua stood motionless at the forefront of the command platform, facing the giant glass tens of meters high, expressionless.
Only the originally silver vision of the warship now started showing large mottled patches.
Looking closely at those patches, they were dense and countless insects.
Bared fangs and teeth, acidic spray everywhere, frantically blocking.
The appearance of these mottled visions signifies the collapse...
...of the stubborn arrowhead in front of the warship.
"Fleet damaged by 73%." Li Luo reported the data faithfully, his eyes bloodshot.
All the sacrifice of the soldiers was to send them out.
The Royal Family needs Mr. Mu!
The Empire needs Mr. Mu!
Mu Tianhua, who possesses wisdom as vast as the starry sky, is the seed of hope for the Empire's military.
"Mother Ship Proton Impact Cannon, charging complete."
The female adjutant's voice was as emotionless as ice shards falling to the ground.
"The ultimate weapon that costs over 120 billion credit points and uses an energy field to shatter molecular chains is finally being deployed..." Mu Tianhua exhaled lightly, his gaze as calm as a simulation exercise.
The 300-meter-long metal cannon extended from the starry sky mother ship, representing the ultimate force of this fleet.
"Expand vision." Mu Tianhua stood straight, his voice resonating like iron at this moment.
"One last salute to you."
"To you, my brave and fearless soldiers of Gardot!"
At this moment, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth layers of the fleet simultaneously unleashed their maximum thrust, thrusting forward fiercely like spears.
With their sacrifice, they forged the final path of vision for the main ship!
One by one, warships tore apart and collapsed.
But they truly carved out a straight path through the swarm.
"Three, two, one..."
The emotionless voice finally turned into two steel-like words.
"——Fire!"
Buzz.
A stream of azure light flowed from the three giant starry sky mother ships, gathering into massive light clusters at the ship's bow.
The energy gauge of the starry sky mother ship instantly plummeted from 70% to 5%!
In an instant, it was as if three comets plunged straight ahead.
The light blazed as bright as the sun.
In space, the encasing swarm "Star Body" suddenly halted, a tiny blue light spot appearing.
The next second, light blue particle beams pierced through from countless directions.
Half of the swarm "Star Body" collapsed into nothingness.
The last fleet, weak as straw yet unyielding, broke through!
Amidst the 32 surviving warships, there was silence.
The millions of people on Loga Star were silent.
The next moment, ecstatic shouts erupted.
The crowd wept with joy.
"We...succeeded." Li Luo was soaked in sweat, as if fished out from a pool, the immense pressure during the clash almost suffocating him, he even envisioned his posthumous state.
"The ultimate victory is ours!!" Li Luo gripped Mu Tianhua's shoulder forcefully, his voice hoarse.
He too was human, he too needed to vent his overwhelming joy at this moment.
However, Mu Tianhua's face bore no trace of joy, this wise man, gentle like water yet firm like ice, gently shook his head.
"All we destroyed was the vanguard..."
What!?
Li Luo froze, then gradually turned his head.
In the empty vision...
A total of three hundred massive black rifts quietly appeared.
Behind the rift, the fat worm perched on the Corruptor's shell, its anthropomorphic small eyes displaying ridicule.
As it opened its mouth.
Pheromones formed special ripples, sweeping over those black rifts, like a key opening a door, continuously sweeping over the surviving 32 warships.
Sharp, twisted sounds echoed inside the ship.
"Feeble, foolish, lowly humans, tremble in fear, you will ultimately become the excreta of our clan, merging with the planet you cherish."
The Brain Worm's simulated sound waves did not conceal its biting sarcasm.
At this moment, all three hundred black rifts opened simultaneously.
The terrifying ocean formed by Bone-faced Insect Beasts silently filled the entire vision.
Whether it was the fleet, or underground, all cheers halted abruptly, as if someone had suddenly cut off the sound field with a knife, giving the illusion of deafness.
At this moment, the powerful spiritual wave of the Brain Worm invaded the warships, invaded the planet's surface.
Finally, the sound reverberated back, mercilessly mocking everyone: "Humans, all your struggles are futile, dying in despair is your ultimate fate."
"Say goodbye to this world you cherish. Heh heh~~"
The piercing laughter echoed recklessly.
Despair spread next.
The warships, drained of energy, could no longer use any weapons.
Empire soldiers silently looked towards their commander, the young man standing straight.
"No, this is not our end."
A gentle voice echoed within the warship.
The sharp laughter stopped, turning into some kind of confused yet annoyed sharp cry.
Mu Tianhua frowned deeply, looking to his side.
In his sight, Major General Li Luo was also looking back with a puzzled gaze.
"Heroes should be remembered."
...
"The history of blood and fire should be sung."
...
"And the heroic souls who die for humanity should be immortalized."
The voice, like a lighthouse illuminating the course in the night, continued to softly sound.
The tone was not particularly passionate, nor was the speech especially loud.
But when these words turned into sounds and flowed within people's hearts.
They brought not just light, but also... hope!
Above and below, the crowd was awakened.
Mu Tianhua and Li Luo exchanged glances, then suddenly looked forward simultaneously.
Like water ripples stirring in space.
A white bone whale, like a water-ink painting, slowly emerged from the void.
A slender black figure stood quietly atop the bone whale, facing the vast starry sky.
