Not long after receiving the order, nine super soldiers' pilots quickly arrived at Alpha. These nine were the pilots of Destiny Gundam, Sky Shadow, the Sniper's Moot, the Haier Brothers' Divine Mech, Earth Dragon, Ophelia's Holy Sword Finis, Dovir's Six-winged Angel·Alter·Super, Hugo, the pilot of God's Thorn, and Roland, the driver of the Knight Roland.
Unfortunately, the Normandy fleet could not hold the airspace around Alpha after three strenuous hours of uneven combat. The good news, however, is that the nine super soldiers had already arrived on the battlefield before the ground battle began.
Upon receiving the ambush order, Sky Shadow, who has a strong capability, nonchalantly chose to strike first. Sky Shadow had a high level of confidence in his personal piloting skills. From within his Mecha cockpit, he sneered at Bergheide, considering them a rabble. Aside from the Sword Dragon, Sky Shadow feared no one.
This time, the Federal Union did not block out live feed of the battle using any technology. On the contrary, if the public wanted to see a victory on the front lines, they would be shown a victory. Of course, Feng Yi, who was far away in a foreign land, would also receive the real-time battle situation.
In front of the central square in various star domains, a group of holographic images gradually appeared in the public's sight. It was the shocking scene of the nine super soldiers appearing simultaneously. Instantly, the entire city was boiling. People jumped on top of cars and swung their clothes to vent their anger...
The flight speed of the super soldiers was far beyond that of ordinary fighters. As expected, Bergheide's fleet had just landed on Alpha when Destiny was the first to encounter Bergheide's fleet just three minutes later.
Without any hesitation, in the roar of Destiny's engine, two escort ships were instantly destroyed by Sky Shadow with just two swift stabs.
"I'll be your opponent." A gray-white Mecha quickly approached Destiny. A super soldier match without another super soldier is unthinkable. Accompanied by a synthetic voice, a mobile soldier quickly appeared in front of Sky Shadow.
Sky Shadow laughed. His laugh was full of ridicule. Destiny performed a sudden stop in the void and said, "I thought you were someone else, just a Red Cloak. Get lost, I, Sky Shadow, don't want to deal with a nobody."
It has to be said that Sky Shadow was very good at gaining people's favor. Not only could this act create psychological pressure on his opponent, it was also a way to gain more fans. As soon as his words were released, there was a chorus of voices in the squares of the Union, exerting even more pressure on his opponent.
"You bastard, how dare you belittle me!" The gray-white Mecha pilot roared in anger. He was also a Red Cloak. Sky Shadow was merely an 12-star general. He didn't have the right to show off! The Mech, venting its master's anger, charged towards Destiny, slashing with its alloy sword repeatedly.
"You're fast," Sky Shadow exclaimed. Despite his surprise, he remembered to raise his sword to block the attack. He had to admit, his opponent was indeed strong at full strength, so much so that even Sky Shadow was struggling. Provoking a lion was never a good idea, as the scene in front of him proved.
However, despite the seriousness on Sky Shadow's face as Destiny kept retreating, the voice from the speaker seemed completely unaffected. "Is this all you've got? You're not even worthy of being called a super soldier."
The clashing of Mecha is a high energy-consuming battle. The attacker usually consumes a lot more physical energy than the defender. The man was already infuriated. Hearing Sky Shadow's words, his attack rhythm was completely disordered. Raising his Electromagnetic Whip, he threw it at Destiny. A sound resembling that of a magnetic storm filled the air...
Being hit by this weapon implies returning to the orbit. Not to mention that the Mecha would 80% likely be paralyzed, the pilot wouldn't survive the electric shock. But unfortunately, Destiny Gundam is also equipped with an Electromagnetic Whip. Destiny is the only model among the Federal's super soldiers that is equipped with an Electromagnetic Whip.
The two Electromagnetic Whips collided and sparked, scattering in all directions. However, Sky Shadow's sword was already raised, ready to slash at the arm of the silver-white Mecha.
Apparently, the other side hadn't expected that Destiny would also have an Electromagnetic Whip. Unprepared, the silver-white Mecha's arm was immediately cut off by Destiny.
Observing the situation, the silver-white Mecha's first thought was to run. Unfortunately, Sky Shadow won't give it that chance. On the contrary, as early as when the slash was being executed, Destiny Gundam's engine was already preparing to launch an assault. As the silver-white Mecha was retreating, Destiny closely followed.
In the dark, something suddenly shot out of the void, heading straight for Destiny...
Just as he was about to strike, a flash went through Sky Shadow's mind. It wasn't good, someone was ambushing him from the dark. Even though his C device alarm rang out 0.3 seconds later, Sky Shadow's first thought was to immediately defend. Even though he wasn't entirely sure where the ambush was, a soldier's intuition was telling him he wasn't mistaken.
With a buzzing sound, a beam of Death Ray hit the ship. It was as if a red light pillar had appeared. Bang! The impact made Destiny Gundam and the silver-white Mecha fly in opposite directions.
It was driven by the Sniper. Without any time to spare, Mu Tou was the first to block the lethal blow for Destiny. As a brother, Mu Tou knew Sky Shadow's personality very well. Despite Sky Shadow's careful and calculating personality, whenever there was gain to be had, even at the risk of danger, Sky Shadow would surely rush to the front. That's why Mu Tou followed closely.
Sky Shadow was sweating profusely. He let out a sigh of relief, "Thanks, Mu Tou. I owe you a drink."
"Hehe, I owe you quite a bit too."
"Let's not talk about that now. You go hide and be careful. The sniper is always the enemy's main target." Without any hesitation, Destiny soared into the sky after leaving a brief message in the communicator. He was going to make the rat who ambushed him pay in blood. Behind him, seven superb mMechas were slowly advancing…
"Don't act alone, Sky Shadow. As your captain, I order you to return immediately."
The voice of Angelina made Sky Shadow pause briefly. "The mission is of paramount importance, Captain. We need to seize the opportunity. You know what it means to take out a super soldier."
This bastard! Angelina furrowed her eyebrows and muttered, then urged the others to catch up quickly.
At this moment, Sky Shadow laughed. Who does Angelina think she is? How could he act rashly? Truth be told, the recent ambush was an exception. He had conducted a detailed investigation of the local environment of the Shadow District before arrival. Or rather, when Normandy retreated to Alpha, he had already foreseen this outcome. He could even assert the real reason for the opponent's attempt to lure him into the Shadow District. The silver-white Mecha could blend into the frozen land with its reflective camouflage, hoping to catch him by surprise.
But the opponent was too naive. Their camouflage was also their Achilles heel!
Sky Shadow had a somewhat savage smile on his face. Destiny moved with such speed that afterimages trailed behind it. In a matter of seconds, the silver-white Mecha, which had been deprived of its arm, appeared in Sky Shadow's sight.
It has to be said that the opponent had made a good calculation. Unfortunately, how could Sky Shadow be compared to a group of trash? Just because the scanner couldn't detect anything doesn't mean that the naked eye couldn't see. Relying too much on the Mecha could often prove to be fatal.
(A lot of things are going on at home next month because of the New Year. I'll take this opportunity to announce a temporary hiatus of this book. It's a bit disheartening to write for just a few cents in daily subscriptions. Allow me to rest for a month, recover my strength and revise the outline. The next volume should be the real battle! Wishing you all a Happy New Year in advance! Gaga)
