Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy Chapter 1657 16: Finally Waiting for You

Yue Xi Jialanuo De's delicate face bore the queen's authority and determination.

"As long as Babon Duchy stands, we will fight to the end every day. The weapons, ammunition, and warships requested by General Qi have been delivered by Yuexi."

"Thank you."

With a gentle nod, Qi Longxiang turned around, looked at the enormous curved screen, and calmly issued orders.

"Proceed with the weapons change."

"Fourth Mechanic, ammunition refill."

"Third Mechanic, retreat in 60 seconds, begin the recovery of mechanical debris."

"Mecha Lightning, Fury, prepare for the 742nd counterattack."

The formal staff of Shadow Island, even when compared to certain nations or cities on any planet, are pitifully few.

Yet, the power it possesses is enough to make the entire universe take notice!

Supported by metal mines and High Crystal Stone reactors, Shadow Island can transform into a massive celestial perpetual motion machine, like a towering giant tree blocking the Insect Clan's path.

Qi Longxiang's indifferent actions did not provoke the Wood God Guard's glaring eyes.

Through these days of fighting side by side, they had long understood that this gentle man in battle was a tireless iron machine, and his extraordinary command art was enough to win anyone's admiration.

The tall, wild beauty of the female warriors of the Wood God Guard only worried about their spiritual pillar, Princess Yuexi.

From the beginning of the resistance, Princess Yuexi has not had a proper rest once.

From the initial longing and teary eyes to her current calm and dignified demeanor, the changes in this young queen of the Babon Duchy were all visible.

"Sister... you have to manage the nation's military and resources, you're too exhausted. Could you go and rest? Leave it to Sinya here." Under fine brows, another girl in a golden dress had eyes like stars.

"Your Majesty, the battle in Babon Duchy should be entrusted to Daisendari." The robust man like a gray wolf eagle spoke with a booming voice.

"No need." Yuexi lightly parted her cherry lips, her voice as clear as spring water yet unexpectedly resolute.

Sigh...

Sinya sighed softly but didn't continue to persuade, only a certain determined figure flashed through her pupils.

"Sister... you want to see him first, don't you? But... you've already waited for three years..."

Yuexi's gaze glistened like autumn water, a heart-stirring smile appearing on her face, "What's thirty years? I just want to see him first when he comes."

"But he's not coming." The despondent voice of Sinya echoed beside her.

Yuexi's gaze was distant and beautiful, like an endless field of golden wheat under the autumn sunlight, "No, he will definitely come."

"You've said that 1,019 times... I'm just afraid that we won't see that day."

Sinya shook her head, no longer trying to persuade.

For she, too, hoped to see that figure again.

To save Babon from fire and water, just as he once took her back from the Blood Teeth Team.

...

Outside the massive space rift, hundreds of thousands of steel warships were arranged like precisely aligned pieces in an industrial assembly line, carrying a uniform and stunning beauty.

Tens of thousands of warships combined and separated as they advanced and retreated, next moment recombining.

Clustered together and scattered apart, like schools of fish in the deep sea, they demonstrated a strict aesthetic of order.

The formidable regenerative ability of Shadow Island allowed Firmament Crossbow Ships to multiply at a geometric rate.

"Coordinate synchronization, first round, fire!"

Millions of Light Arrows shot out instantly, forming a vertical plane enveloping Zeg.

In an instant, flesh and blood shattered, covering the starry sky, then was burned to ashes by intense heat.

The previously silent battlefield seamlessly turned into a colossal millstone of flesh.

Behind the overwhelming fleet, the Dawn Railgun assembled from satellite ships was like a snake in the darkness, aiming at the vast sky.

These heavy weapons could be infinitely stacked.

Their only target was Bone-faced Insect Beasts and White Armor Insect Beasts, powerful enough to stand against S level mechas!

A Bone-faced Insect Beast surfaced, probing its movements for a moment without meeting its end.

So it began trying to blend into the regular insect swarm.

First one, then two…

Unnoticed, over a thousand Bone-faced Insect Beasts appeared among the vast swarm.

But inside the flagship Dawn of the Shadow Fleet, not a single Insect Beast was overlooked!

Qi Longxiang closed his eyes, countless pipelines floating around him, yet seemed to see the inquiring gazes of his adjutants.

"The number isn't enough; wait longer."

Flesh and steel were launched into the vastness of space

Each passing second saw several warships shatter.

Steel mingled with insect flesh, dyeing the starry sky red.

The Insect Clan was numb, unaware of pain, and humans were equally numb.

The lifeless nature of the mechanical corps was Shadow Island's strongest reliance for holding out this long!

"Enough." Qi Longxiang's voice lightly sounded in everyone's ear.

Instantly, brilliant light filled everyone's vision; in the screen, an army of hidden Bone-faced Insect Beasts had just appeared, only to be washed away by the deep blue brilliance…

The attack, capable of annihilating planets, blasted through a view stretching tens of thousands of meters, creating an ultra-long void.

"Fat Brother, are you ready!? Countdown 3, 1—go!"

"What about 2? You always trick me." A piercing curse rang out.

The arm of the relic mecha Lightning swung violently.

Like water and mist, white light covered the gigantic red Fury, now over a kilometer in diameter. In the shimmer, the red ball of light vanished from its original spot.

In the next second, Fury's figure flickered a thousand kilometers away.

"Fat Brother's Ultimate Profound Meaning, Star Body-level Giant Thunder—Dimensional Blast!"

Amidst the soul-crushing shrieks, the scene of planetary catastrophe emerged…

In the silent starry sky, the red shockwave flattened everything within three thousand kilometers.

"I can't go on… take me back."

Beside him, the Demon God Lightning flashed white, grabbing the shrunken Fury back to its original form, disappearing again in an instant.

Area suppression complete.

For the Shadow Corps.

This had become a routine daily occurrence for over three years now.

Shadow Island's White Lightning—Lord Yin Shuai, and Shadow Island's Self-destructing God—Lord Harry, had countless times inscribed their names onto the resistance history of humanity.

"Return to formation." Qi Longxiang's cold voice resonated.

"By convention, there should be two more waves of massive assaults; it's up to you now, Deputy Commander." Fat Brother said weakly.

"I can still fight." Beneath the distinctive White Hair, eyes filled with wildness and excitement never disappeared.

"If I die, let me die here in this great Star Sea!! Future generations will remember a great and wild name; his charming posture unmatched…"

"Get the hell out of here." Fat Brother used his last bit of strength to complete a self-detonation, shaking the incessantly chattering White Hair, both man and mecha, out of the main ship.

...

"Mu Fan, my brother, can you ever come back?"

"Your Fat Brother is now a hero, but I don't damn want to be a martyr!" Fat Brother lay paralyzed in the mecha, wearing a mournful face.

"…Hmm?" Qi Longxiang's perplexed voice sounded.

Instantly freezing everyone.

Such emotional tone had never appeared in Qi Longxiang before.

"What's wrong!? Commander-in-Chief, sir."

"The insect swarm showed abnormal movement; Star Map ripple analysis indicates they seem… ready to migrate and escape!"

Inside the Dawn Battleship, Qi Longxiang suddenly opened his eyes!

At this moment, from the distant space, a Four-element Wave carrying a simple message finally reached this starry sky through time and space.

Calmly penetrating the swarm and warships, calmly spreading into everyone's ears.

"I'm Mu Fan, I..."

"Returned."

Fat Brother, Harry, William, Xiaoxi!

Qi Longxiang, Daisendari, Lin Hao!

Yuexi, Sinya!

Everyone, simultaneously frozen.

Then a light named hope blossomed in their eyes.

Excitement, joy, suppressed trembling.

Multitude of humanity.

On the peerless face dressed in royal robes, two lines of silent tears finally flowed down.

"Yuexi has finally waited for you."
