The Grey Angel enters the battle, boosting Federation morale, while the Fanluo God Emperor deploys the Purgatory Angel to confront Morigko in the Zero-degree Envoy. Meanwhile, Su Ming pilots Ilyas against Oshim, landing a blow but struggling against his opponent's superior mecha and strength.

However, with the exception of these three mechas, the Federation possesses no other fighting force superior to Ilyas.

Consequently, Su Ming found himself utterly incapable of acquiring a more powerful mecha.

Furthermore, Ilyas’s potential for evolution was reaching its zenith, and any further advancement necessitated the assimilation of her sister, Irene Liss. The significant challenge lay in Irene Liss’s vastly superior strength, rendering this evolutionary path unachievable.

"Thank you."

Ilyas remained silent for a few moments after hearing Su Ming’s words before offering a smile and expressing her gratitude.

"No need for thanks; let’s take it down together!"

Su Ming declared to Ilyas.

"Alright!"

Ilyas readily agreed with a nod.

Su Ming then guided Ilyas, initiating a charge towards Omshi.

"Foolishness, you truly overestimate yourselves!"

Omshi’s crimson eyes flared, his Kais biological reaction surged intensely, and his neural pathways emitted a distinct halo, hurtling towards Su Ming like a streak of light.

The two forces met head-on amidst the vastness of the starry sky.

Ilyas was violently thrown backward. Omshi promptly raised his left hand, coalescing a ferocious Kais Beam that swept menacingly towards Su Ming.

Su Ming had no choice but to expertly maneuver Ilyas to execute evasive maneuvers.

Leveraging his numerical superiority, Omshi relentlessly pressed his aggressive assault upon Su Ming.

...

Meanwhile, on a different sector of the battlefield.

Remwaco unfurled his colossal wings, his enormous Touch Blade whistling through the void.

Crunch!

Mechas caught in its path were summarily crushed by the devastating force of the Touch Blade.

"Damn it!"

Mia, piloting the Dark Angel, transformed into a blur of black, hurtling directly towards Remwaco’s head.

Remwaco’s crimson eyes instantly fixed upon Mia, his blood-red maw opening wide as he lunged to bite.

Mia instantly activated a Light Speed Fold Flash, vanishing from sight, only to reappear directly before Remwaco’s left eye, raising her blade and thrusting it with formidable intent.

Crunch!

A thick, viscous liquid splattered outwards.

"Ah!"

Remwaco convulsively swung his head in agony, propelling Mia forcefully away.

Seizing this critical moment of Remwaco’s eye injury, the Star Destroyer·Star Hidden, along with other battleships and defensive emplacements, unleashed a barrage of concentrated attacks!

Beams and missiles rained down upon his colossal form.

Rumble...

The relentless explosions left Remwaco grievously wounded and bleeding profusely.

Remwaco contorted his face in pain, unleashing a terrifying Kais Beam that swept relentlessly forward.

Rumble...

Several Light Annihilations obliterated entire battleships.

Even the Star Hidden sustained a direct hit, its Energy Barrier flickering erratically under the immense strain.

At this crucial juncture, Limi, controlling the Divine Grace Mecha, unleashed its stored power. The intricate engravings across the mecha’s surface erupted in a blinding white luminescence, resembling a celestial angel descending.

"Divine Strike!"

Limi guided the Divine Grace Mecha, transforming into a world-ending streak of white light, charging directly towards Remwaco’s head.

Crunch!

With a singular, precise thrust, Limi impaled Remwaco’s right eye with her spear.

"Ah!"

Remwaco roared in his rage, expelling energy. From the wounded eye, writhing tendrils emerged, lashing out towards Limi.

Limi swiftly retracted her long spear and vanished with another Light Speed Fold Flash.

At this point, all available mechas charged in unison, unleashing concentrated beams of energy towards Remwaco.

Boom!

Writhing in agony, Remwaco spread his wings and unleashed a wild swing.

Numerous small, fleshy projectiles detached from his body, swarming towards the surrounding mechas.

Instantly, many of the attacking mechas found their assault disrupted.

Witnessing this, Mia, without a moment’s hesitation, commanded the Dark Dragon God to unleash its full power, transforming into a black lightning bolt that slammed forcefully into Remwaco’s body.

Bang!

Massive shockwaves rippled outwards.

Remwaco’s body was immediately rent open by a gaping wound, exposing pulsating, dark biological tissue within.

"You bastards!"

Remwaco bellowed in pure fury, then swept his colossal Touch Blade in a vicious arc towards Mia.

Mia immediately maneuvered her mecha, executing a swift retreat to evade the deadly blow.

Just then, swarms of Chilami suddenly descended, merging into Remwaco’s form, and his damaged body began to visibly mend.

Aifulin, observing this alarming development, urgently conveyed to Mia.

"No, this way we can never defeat it! Moreover, the number of Chilami surrounding us is only increasing."

"Damn it!"

Mia cast a furious glance around and cursed vehemently.

At this critical moment, Admiral Xia Li’s voice resonated through the public communication channel.

"Mia, Su Ming! Misa’s troops have completed their withdrawal. You must immediately fall back within the defense line!"

Upon receiving this urgent command, Mia promptly relayed the message to Aifulin, Limi, and the others.

"We are retreating!"

"Understood!"

Aifulin and the rest responded in unison.

All of them turned their mechas and initiated their withdrawal.

"You’re dreaming if you think you can escape!"

Remwaco’s crimson eyes ignited once more. He instantly unleashed his power, his ferocious maw gaping open as he commenced gathering a colossal Kais Energy Ball, several kilometers in diameter, crackling with dark lightning arcs and continuing to expand.

Mia and the others glanced back, their faces instantly paling.

On the other side, engaged in combat with Oshim, Su Ming heard Admiral Xia Li’s retreat order. He abruptly commanded Ilyas to unleash her power, brandishing the Dragon Base Spear in a sweeping attack.

With his obsidian Bone Sword, Oshim intercepted the attack, a resounding clang echoing through the void. The immense force of the collision sent him staggering backward. Su Ming, capitalizing on the brief opening, skillfully maneuvered Ilyas to execute a tactical retreat. "Attempting to escape!" Oshim's heart plummeted. His gaze fell upon the scattered debris of a nearby Level 4 Battleship. With a powerful flick of his Bone Whip, he commanded it to lash out. The whip, imbued with malevolent energy, writhed and extended, ensnaring the wreckage of the battleship. Oshim then unleashed his power, launching the colossal wreckage directly at Su Ming. "Be careful!" Ilyas’s urgent warning pierced the air. Su Ming glanced over his shoulder, witnessing the behemoth of a battleship hurtling towards him. Without hesitation, he initiated a Space Jump, vanishing from sight. Meanwhile, Remwaco’s Kais Energy Ball, now boasting a diameter of a staggering fifty kilometers, reached its full charge.
