Shadows of the Deep Space Chapter 1811 - 561: Letting It All Go (Part 4)

Mia's expression turned grave as she responded.

At this critical juncture, Remwaco, previously injured, found its scarlet eyes blazing with renewed intensity. Its entire being pulsed with a surge of 'Kais' biological energy, activating formidable self-healing capabilities. The wounds vanished in an instant, and it declared with grim determination,

"Hmph, you believe two against one guarantees victory? How utterly naive!"

"Oh? And on what grounds do you base such confidence?"

Su Ming's brow furrowed deeply as he fixed his gaze upon Remwaco.

"Because this time, I am not aligning myself with those two imbeciles, Oshim!"

Remwaco's voice boomed with fervent conviction.

Sizzle~

Suddenly, the expanse of the starry sky behind Remwaco erupted with violent arcs of black lightning, causing the very fabric of space to twist and contort ominously.

A colossal, 150-meter-tall humanoid entity materialized. It possessed a sharp, pterosaur-like head, and its entire form was constructed from translucent red biological tissue, its intricate neural pathways starkly visible. A pallid, bony face was set upon its sharp head, its scarlet eyes radiating a piercing crimson light. Three pairs of bony wings jutted from its back, exuding the overwhelming might of a VI-type Heroic Level Chilami Omshi.

Omshi cast a dispassionate glance towards Su Ming and Mia before raising its left claw.

Crack!

A sharp bone spike emerged from the center of its palm.

Extending its right claw, Omshi grasped the bone spike, slowly drawing forth an elongated vertebra that seamlessly transformed into a segmented, obsidian-hued bone longsword.

"This is not good. It's Second Elder Oshim. While his power might not eclipse my sister's, it is certainly not far behind," Ilyas conveyed to Su Ming, the tension of facing such a formidable foe palpable in his voice.

Su Ming drew a deep breath and then addressed Mia,

"Mia, Remwaco is your responsibility. I will engage Oshim."

"Understood. Be cautious!"

Mia's reply was delivered with resolute seriousness.

"Let's go!"

Su Ming's eyes glinted with resolve as he directed Ilyas to charge towards Oshim.

"Intriguing. It has been an age since anyone dared to challenge me so directly. Allow me to witness the prowess of the new generation of Federation generals!"

Oshim's scarlet eyes flared with intensity. It raised its left claw, condensing a swirling orb of crimson, tumorous mass, which it then hurled directly at Su Ming.

As the crimson orb hurtled closer, it abruptly expanded, fracturing into numerous dense tendrils, much like an octopus's limbs, lashing out towards Ilyas.

Su Ming's gaze intensified. Ilyas, shimmering with wild black lightning arcs, sliced through the encroaching tendrils.

Omshi materialized instantaneously beside Su Ming, its black bone sword whistling through the air in a vicious horizontal sweep.

Su Ming reacted instantly, pivoting and raising the Dragon Base Spear to intercept the blow!

Crack!

The colossal impact sent a tremor through Ilyas, flinging the entire mecha backward with tremendous force.

Elder Oshim vigorously beat its wings, launching an aggressive aerial assault upon Su Ming.

Su Ming skillfully maneuvered Ilyas, raising its left hand to gather potent 'Kais Beam' energy, unleashing a blast towards Elder Oshim.

Boom!

A spectacular explosion erupted in the void.

In the very next second, Elder Oshim emerged from the fiery inferno, relentlessly closing the distance, its black bone sword held high, ready to cleave Ilyas.

Su Ming guided Ilyas in a desperate series of evasive maneuvers, parrying Oshim's relentless onslaught with the Dragon Base Spear whenever necessary.

For a harrowing period, Su Ming found himself on the defensive, barely holding against Elder Oshim's ferocious assault.

Meanwhile, Mia was engaged in a fierce duel with Remwaco in the Dark Angel mecha. After a few fierce exchanges, both mechs were forced to disengage momentarily.

"You are not the old Mirog. Is he too cowardly to face me himself?"

Remwaco taunted after their brief clash.

"I need no one else; I can defeat you on my own!"

Mia suddenly threw her head back, her eyes igniting with a crimson hue, her entire demeanor shifting into one of ferocious resolve.

Red warning indicators flashed instantaneously across the virtual interface.

"Warning: Overclocking Mode activated!"

"Warning: Power restrictions released."

"Warning: Power plant output maximized."

....

The Dark Angel mecha suddenly blazed with intense crimson light, resembling a ravenous beast.

Mia propelled the mecha forward like a lightning strike, charging directly at Remwaco.

"You are courting death!"

Remwaco fearlessly met the oncoming charge.

The two mechs clashed violently amidst the vastness of the starry expanse.

...

Concurrently, a war correspondent, brimming with excitement, provided a live update on the unfolding battle.

"As you can witness, the conflict on Moon Star has escalated dramatically, with the Chilami Clan deploying their forces on a massive scale, including four Elders! Fortunately, the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country forces stationed in Defense Zone 5 have shifted their allegiance, and with a consequent dip in morale amongst the Heavenly Revelation Divine Country troops, the situation remains precariously stable."

"Hold on!"

"We must achieve victory!"

...

Countless citizens offered fervent prayers, their hearts heavy with anxiety.

Federation Government President's Office - Dawn Hall.

Numerous council members intently observed the battlefronts spanning the Nether Moon Star and Black Flame Star, their faces etched with profound worry.

At this critical moment, one council member gasped in alarm,

"This is dire! Master Mo Xiu!"

Long Bai and the others turned their attention, their gazes fixed towards Mo Xiu's sector of the battle.

Mo Xiu was seen being overwhelmed by the Dark Star Emperor, violently crashing through multiple Crystal Origin Fortresses.

City Lord Farren’s expression grew rigid, his hands clenching the armrests of his seat, a deep worry etched upon his face.

Truth be told, City Lord Farren’s concern for Mo Xiu’s well-being surpassed everyone else’s. If it were at all feasible, he would undoubtedly pilot the Thunder Angel personally to confront the Dark Star Emperor and exact retribution.

However, the stark reality was his advanced age. While he presented an image of vigor in daily life, this was merely a pretense.

He could still manage to pilot the Thunder Angel for brief durations, but sustaining such an effort for an extended period was beyond his capabilities.

At this precise juncture, Long Bai extended his hand, slightly magnifying the combat feed of Mo Xiu.

The undivided attention of all present shifted towards that display.

...

The battlefield at the Black Flame Star Defense Line.

The Dark Star Emperor, wielding control over the Lord of Death, relentlessly pressed Mo Xiu, roaring with laughter,

"Too weak!"

"Do not be so ostentatious."

Mo Xiu, commanding the Thunder Angel, suddenly surged its power, rapidly retreating to establish a greater distance. He then opened the launch bay, unleashing an anti-matter missile for detonation. Following this, with a Light Speed Fold Flash, he disappeared from sight.
