Shadows of the Deep Space Chapter 1840 - 567: Fallen
Previously on Shadows of the Deep Space...
The VI Generation Mecha also commenced its movement, transforming into a streak of purple light as it swiftly assaulted the Starshine Fortress.
"Reckless fools, everyone, prepare to concentrate our fire!" Ferion exclaimed, raising his hand as he issued a grim command.
Rows upon rows of launch portals on the Starshine Fortress slid open, mobilizing countless Interception Cannons.
Ferion and the others swiftly controlled their respective mechas, locking onto Kroos from a considerable distance.
From their perspective, even for a VI Generation Mecha, such a brazen frontal charge was virtually an act of suicide.
"Fire!" came the command.
Swish, swish!
Suddenly, a torrent of dark missiles descended upon Kroos like a relentless storm.
Kroos's lips curled into a slight, subtle smile.
Then, the scarlet eyes of the Void Hunter illuminated, and the entire Mecha became an elusive entity, phasing through the dense swarm of missiles as though it were merely an illusion.
At this juncture, a multitude of missiles were detonated deliberately.
Rumble~
Innumerable fireworks erupted across the space!
Unfortunately, it had no discernible effect; the Void Hunter deftly darted through the fiery explosions.
Ferion, startled by this turn of events, issued another fierce order.
"Hit him hard!"
Immediately, all the mechas raised their Beam Cannons and unleashed a barrage of wild fire.
The countless Interception Cannons of Starshine Fortress also joined the fray, firing fiercely.
Swish, swish!
A multitude of beams streaked through space, all directed towards Kroos.
Yet, Kroos made no move to dodge, choosing instead to confront them directly.
Witnessing this spectacle, everyone was utterly puzzled. Wasn't this akin to actively seeking death?
However, in the very next second, as those beams impacted the Void Hunter, they produced only ripples, much like rain striking the surface of water, rendering them completely ineffective.
Kroos himself was surprised. Had the modifications made to this mecha proven to be that effective? Without delay, he pushed the power output to its maximum and advanced!
In an instant, the Void Hunter shattered the concentrated fire attack, rapidly closing the distance to Starshine Fortress.
"What kind of ability is this? Our concentrated fire was utterly ineffective?" Seeing this, Ferion exclaimed in profound shock.
Under normal circumstances, regardless of a mecha's strength, it would be compelled to evade under such concentrated fire, yet the opponent had directly withstood and broken through it.
"Attacks like yours are completely ineffective against the Void Hunter," Kroos stated with a smile, his voice resonating over the public communication channel.
"It's you, Kroos, the Mechanic Master!" Ferion instantly recognized him.
"Precisely. If you possess any wisdom, step aside and do not obstruct my path!"
"Dream on! Do you truly believe we are made of mere clay? Brothers, follow me!" Witnessing that long-range concentrated fire failed to halt Kroos, Ferion piloted the Dark Executioner, activating its Energy Barrier, and spearheaded the charge.
Instantly, like a vast, surging army, the mecha force swarmed towards the Void Hunter.
"Bring it on!" Kroos excitedly welcomed the oncoming onslaught.
Ferion, at the very forefront, swung his blade fiercely, aiming a decisive slash towards Kroos.
Kroos observed the approaching Ferion, a bright smile on his face, skillfully maneuvering the Void Hunter to nimbly sidestep the attack. He then swung his longsword, connecting with the Dark Executioner's Energy Barrier.
Crack!
The Energy Barrier immediately shattered under the impact.
Ferion was visibly taken aback by this sudden development.
At this critical moment, Kroos swiftly swung his longsword once more, lashing out at the Dark Executioner with an almost illusory speed.
"Die!" Ferion immediately raised his other blade to parry the blow!
Crack!
Sparks flew chaotically from the clash of blades.
A terrifying force was imparted upon the Dark Executioner.
The entire Dark Executioner was sent flying outwards like a comet streaking through the void.
Just then, two Erosion Shadows ferociously attacked, simultaneously raising their Plasma Light Blades to strike down Kroos.
Kroos gracefully retracted his longsword, deftly fending off the onslaught from the two Erosion Shadows, then swiftly swept these two Erosion Shadow Mechas away.
However, in the very next second, wave after wave of Erosion Shadow Mechas attacked relentlessly, fearlessly brandishing their Plasma Light Blades at Kroos.
"Interesting!" Kroos adeptly dodged the onslaught with the Void Hunter, swinging his longsword to send one Erosion Shadow after another flying, as if he were merely toying with children.
Pamie, observing Kroos seemingly wasting time with these lesser opponents, spoke in a low, firm tone.
"Stop playing around!"
"Alright!" Kroos displayed a hint of regret on his face, then proceeded to maneuver the Void Hunter, unleashing its full power. Its surface lines began to glow with a purple shimmer, causing the entire Mecha to appear elusive once more.
The Erosion Shadow Mechas swung their Plasma Light Blades, striking at the Void Hunter’s body, only to find themselves swinging at empty air.
The Void Hunter phased through the layers of obstruction like a phantom, heading directly towards the Starshine Fortress.
"Stop him, quickly!" Countless Shadow Slayers and Green Wing Mechas desperately charged forward, wielding their Beam Sabers to slash at Kroos.
"A mantis attempting to halt a carriage!"
With the Void Hunter under his command, Kroos unleashed its full might, becoming a streak of pure light as it traversed the passage. The mechas that dared to impede his advance were bisected before they could even muster a response!
Rumble~ A cacophony of explosions followed in its wake!
"Ah!" A shrill cry tore through the public communication channel, sharp and sudden.
Unyielding, Kroos shattered every barrier, his approach to Starshine Fortress swift and decisive. Just then, Elder Tai Kai, commanding an Erosion Shadow Mecha, materialized from an unseen dimension via a Light Speed Fold Flash. His Plasma Light Blade, held with deadly precision, swung towards the Void Hunter.
Crack! Shards of beam particles rained down.
"How could this be?" Disbelief etched itself onto Tai Kai's weathered features. His full-force assault from the Erosion Shadow had failed to penetrate the Void Hunter's defenses.
"Impressive, yet ultimately futile!" Kroos ignited the Flowing Fire within his grasp. Crimson patterns flared across the longsword, erupting into searing flames as he lunged at Tai Kai, a blur of shadow and speed.
Tai Kai promptly deployed his Energy Barrier. Crack! The barrier and the mecha housing it were cleaved in two, instantly.
