Shadows of the Deep Space Chapter 1827 - 564: Deterioration_4

Morigko felt utterly crushed by the Vanlu God Emperor, struggling to draw a breath, when suddenly his spirit jolted.

A holographic interface shimmered into existence, displaying lines of digital text.

"Genetic Device activated - Awaiting System Activation!"

"Please initiate activation!"

...

A small, circular device emerged from a seam in the armrest of the Zero-degree Envoy’s control chair.

Without the slightest hesitation, Morigko peeled back the Symbiotic Armor from his left thumb and pressed it against the device's needle.

A single drop of his deep red blood fell onto the Genetic Device.

A sequence of notifications appeared.

"Genetic recognition successful!"

"Genetic Device activation complete."

...

In a flash, the VI-type Mecha, the Zero-degree Envoy, became adorned with intricate, ice-blue circuits that converged at its core. The entire Mecha transformed, appearing as if sculpted from pure blue ice, radiating a dreadful chill that seemed to freeze the very fabric of space around it.

Upon successfully bypassing the Genetic Lock, Morigko was suddenly infused with a surge of power. His entire Ice Crystal Blade glowed, enveloped in frigid air, as he slashed towards the Purgatory Angel.

"Ha ha! You truly believe unlocking that Genetic Lock will make a difference?"

The Vanlu God Emperor unleashed the full might of the Purgatory Angel, its Mecha erupting in flames like a miniature sun. With immense force, it swung the spear clutched in its hand.

Crack!

The two colossal Mechas collided violently.

Scorching infernos met an absolute, biting cold.

On the battlefield, the reporters watched with bated breath, their gazes locked onto the unfolding spectacle.

At the Moon Star Command Headquarters,

Long Chen and his comrades were equally gripped by tension.

At this precise moment, the Vanlu God Emperor let out a guttural roar, suddenly amassing power. With a single, devastating spear thrust, the Purgatory Angel hurled the Zero-degree Envoy aside.

"My goodness! The Zero-degree Envoy couldn't prevail even after unlocking its Genetic Lock?"

"Impossible! The Purgatory Angel hasn't even unlocked its own Genetic Lock yet!"

"What is happening? The Thunder Angel couldn't defeat the Lord of Death, and now the Zero-degree Envoy is falling to the Purgatory Angel?"

"How are their Mechas so incredibly powerful?"

...

Witnessing this turn of events, a wave of despair washed over the observers.

At this critical juncture, the Vanlu God Emperor piloted the Purgatory Angel in a swift charge directly at Morigko, raising its spear high. It then plunged the weapon downwards, striking like a blinding streak of light towards the Zero-degree Envoy.

Morigko reacted instinctively, raising the Ice Crystal Blade to parry the attack.

Ka!

The bone-jarring impact sent the entire Zero-degree Envoy reeling backward uncontrollably.

To be perfectly honest, Morigko was fighting this intense battle with everything he had.

The Zero-degree Envoy not only seemed outmatched in performance compared to the Purgatory Angel, but its signature freezing abilities were proving utterly ineffective.

Just then, the Vanlu God Emperor's eyes narrowed with sharp focus, spotting a critical opening. It decisively swung its spear.

"Vibrate Spear!"

Clang!

The Ice Crystal Blade, held firmly in the Zero-degree Envoy’s right hand, was violently knocked from Morigko’s grasp.

"Damn it!"

Morigko’s face contorted in a mask of pure shock.

In the next instant, the Vanlu God Emperor swiftly brought its spear around in a brutal sweep.

Morigko, unable to muster a timely defense, was struck directly.

The entire Zero-degree Envoy was sent hurtling through the void, crashing heavily into a jagged piece of Crystal Origin Fortress debris, obliterating it into countless fragments.

Having secured such a decisive blow, the Vanlu God Emperor raised the Holy Spear it wielded. A chilling glint of murderous intent flashed within its scarlet eyes. The Purgatory Angel transformed into a blazing torrent of light, launching a direct assault on Morigko.

"Divine Strike!"

"Lord Morigko!"

The soldiers stationed nearby cried out in sheer horror as they witnessed the unfolding scene.

They desperately wished to intervene, but tragically, it was already far too late.

At this critical juncture, Morigko shook his head, just regaining his senses, only to see the Vanlu God Emperor’s swift attack. A profound sense of despair washed over him.

However, at that exact moment, a dark stream of light shot out from behind Morigko, intercepting the Vanlu God Emperor’s devastating strike.

An immense shockwave ripple spread across the battlefield.

Everyone present gasped in astonishment, turning their gazes towards the source.

There, Ilyas materialized, executing a retrograde maneuver and landing beside a stunned Morigko.

The reporters covering the battle erupted in excited shouts.

"Oh, my stars! It’s Admiral Su Ming!"

"This is incredible news!"

"With Lord Su Ming here, our victory is assured!"

"Wait, why is Admiral Su Ming even here? Wasn't he assigned to Defense Zone 5?"

...

The vast audience observing the live broadcast buzzed with excited chatter.

Within the Federation Government's Dawn Hall,

Numerous senators watched Su Ming’s timely rescue of Morigko with evident satisfaction.

"General Su Ming, that was truly a remarkable display!"

"Indeed! His timing was impeccable!"

"The central battlefield has been secured!"

"If General Su Ming manages to defeat the Vanlu God Emperor, that would be even more magnificent!"

"That outcome is certainly within the realm of possibility!"

....

City Lord Alicia observed Su Ming’s sudden appearance with a smile gracing her lips. This man, she mused, truly possessed an unending capacity for surprising everyone.

Meanwhile, Long Bai also watched Su Ming arrive to provide support, a noticeable easing of tension evident on his face.

...

At the Moon Star Defense Headquarters, a collective sigh of relief swept through Long Chen and the others as Su Ming made a timely appearance.

"What a relief!"

However, Gwen reported with a sense of unease at that very moment.

"Lord Long Chen, our defense line is in a critical state. Zone A11 has been breached."

"How could this have happened?"

Long Chen and the others turned pale, facing one crisis after another.

"The attacking Chilami and enemy forces are overwhelming, and more than half of the soldiers defending Zone A11 have already perished," Gwen reported through gritted teeth.

"Is the World-purifying Flower ready for deployment?" Commander Fulaya urgently inquired.

"No, there are still 4 hours and 13 minutes remaining!" Gwen immediately responded.

"No, that's not enough time!" Commander Fulaya was as anxious as a person with ants on a hot pan upon hearing this.

"Quickly, deploy the reserve troops to reinforce the defense," Long Chen instructed Gwen with a grim expression.

"Yes."

Gwen acknowledged swiftly.

....

In the central battlefield area, Su Ming inhaled deeply and asked Morigko,

"Are you alright?"

"I'm fine. How did you get here? Weren't you stationed at Defense Zone 5?"
