Shadows of the Deep Space Chapter 1657: 533: Bai Yuyi

A swarm of lasers and missiles saturated the cosmos, surrounding Su Ming as if he were seconds away from being pierced by a thousand shafts.

At this instant, Su Ming’s icy eyes glinted with a sharp radiance. He pushed Ilyas to its absolute speed, weaving through the gaps in the barrage before slamming fiercely into the Grey Angel’s Klein Barrier.

Boom!

A massive shockwave erupted, causing the Grey Angel's Klein Barrier to tremble violently, its surface buckling under the strain.

A dazzling display of pyrotechnics blossomed in its wake.

Even as the Dragon Base Spear’s tip punched into the Klein Barrier, it could not quite pierce through to the hull.

“Keep going! Apply more pressure!”

Celeste encouraged Su Ming with an excited cry.

Sensing the danger, the Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader reacted instantly, triggering the Grey Angel’s Position Rejection Device. Intricate patterns flickered across the ship's outer plating.

A invisible force of repulsion surged outward.

Bang!

Before Su Ming could shift, Ilyas was catapulted backward.

Just as he managed to regain control of his mecha,

Another wave of devastating missiles and beams screamed toward him.

Rumble~

Ilyas took the hit directly. A series of explosions wracked the mecha, and the Stance Outer Garment was torn away instantly.

Gritting his teeth, Su Ming maneuvered Ilyas to dodge at maximum capacity, charging back toward the Grey Angel once more.

Watching Su Ming persist like an indomitable pest, the Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader grew livid. Mechanical fires burned brightly as the hull of the Grey Angel writhed, spawning rows of Mechanical Eyes across its surface.

These eyes spun wildly, locking onto the approaching Ilyas and unleashing a storm of ultra-high frequency beams.

“Look out!”

Celeste signaled the threat immediately, projecting the predicted trajectory of the attacks into Su Ming’s visual feed.

In a flash,

Su Ming’s display was flooded with red warning lines, forcing him to bank Ilyas sharply.

Rumble!

Ilyas took several hits, the frame of the mecha scarring and exploding under the fire.

“Dammit, why is the accuracy and fire rate so insane?”

Su Ming growled while straining to maintain control.

“The Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader may not specialize in intelligence, but its level is high enough that its processing power is immense,” Celeste explained to Su Ming.

With a dark expression, Su Ming forced Ilyas to channel its remaining power into healing its critical damage, charging once more toward the Grey Angel.

Furious at Su Ming’s resilience, the Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader growled.

Crack!

The skin of the Black Angel churned, sprouting jagged dark metallic spikes.

Swish swish!

These spikes, crackling with crimson arcs of lightning, rained down toward Su Ming.

Su Ming’s pupils narrowed as the world slowed into a crawl; he prepared to force his way through.

Suddenly, the spikes detonated in a synchronized chain!

Ilyas was thrown back violently.

Just as Su Ming fought to stabilize his machine, Celeste let out a panicked shriek.

“Su Ming, get out of there!”

Su Ming glanced up.

A massive wave of missiles was closing in, mixed with an array of nuclear warheads.

Before Su Ming could attempt an evasive maneuver,

ZZZZ!

Ilyas was suddenly swallowed by chains of red lightning. A surge of paralyzing pain caused Su Ming’s expression to collapse as his controls became unresponsive.

He could see black metal plates clamping over the entire frame of Ilyas, the dark surfaces crawling with red lightning.

“Not good, it’s suppression metal!”

Celeste cried out in alarm.

“Let’s see if you can survive this finale!”

The Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader sneered.

At that precise moment, a torrent of defensive interceptor missiles and a red beam erupted from behind Ilyas, charging uphill to intercept.

Rumble~

The incoming missile swarm was wiped out in segments, creating a chain of blinding artificial suns. That beam then slammed into the Klein Barrier of the Grey Angel, sending ripples of distortion across it.

Su Ming gritted his teeth, pulling back to shed the suppressed metal from his armor, his gaze flashing briefly toward the Doomed Light.

The reinforcements had arrived just as he needed them most.

“Pest!”

The Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader fixated on the Doomed Light. A massive metallic spike extruded from the Grey Angel’s hull, vibrating with black lightning.

ZZZ!

The spike began to glow with a blinding brilliance.

Inside the Central Control Room of the Doomed Light.

Red warning icons flashed across the tactical display.

“Warning: Locked on by the Grey Angel!”

…

Upon seeing this, Li Menghan let out a desperate, startled cry.

“Quick, maximize evasion!”

“We can’t; we are locked in, there’s no room for evasive action!”

The operator shouted back in terror.

The Grey Angel launched a lethal black beam straight at the Doomed Light.

Su Ming’s face turned deathly pale. He immediately took control of Ilyas to plant himself in the path of the beam.

“Activate AT Field!”

“Activate GN Field!”

Even with the Doomed Light at full operational capacity, Su Ming dared not leave it to chance. If that shield crumbled, everyone would be annihilated.

In a split second, the black beam tore through both the AT Field and the GN Field, ultimately striking Ilyas directly.

Boom~

The Black Sun swallowed Ilyas.

“Lord Su Ming!”

…

Li Menghan and the others screamed in horror at the unfolding spectacle.

As the debris settled, the scorched remains of Ilyas drifted into view, the mecha severely crippled and leaking sparks of electricity.

But before Su Ming could catch his breath, the unrelenting barrage of missiles and beams initiated a second wave!

“Hahaha, you’re trapped now!” the Eshifar Deputy Clan Leader bellowed.

“It’s over!”

Celeste sobbed in terror at the sight.
