"Don't get cocky, woman; we'll take you on."
"And who are you? I, Jiu Ling of the 12 stars, doesn't waste time on nobodies."
These words enraged them, but they were helpless. Compared to Jiu Ling, ordinary Red Cloaks indeed paled in comparison. But keep in mind that they were being humiliated publicly, in front of the world. They could bear murder, but they could not afford to lose face. Even if they died on the battlefield, they could not lose this battle.
Elvis didn't waste any words. He pointed his spear directly at Jiu Ling's cockpit. His speed was impressively quick, his Silver Spear swung like a white snake lashing out.
"Hmph."
Blocking with her Devil Angel's sword, Jiu Ling swung back powerfully. On contact, there was a thunderous crash. Elvis's plan of attacking with a stored-up attack was instantly swept aside with the ease of weightlessness. Moreover, the Gun Rider almost lost balance, stumbling clumsily forward, nearly falling. How was this possible?
In this vast world, nothing seemed impossible. Saudi citizens watching the frontline war reports on news program were overjoyed. Jiu Ling was the pride of Saudi, as well as the pride of the world!
Watching coldly from the sidelines was Sky Shadow, gritting his teeth in frustration. Jiu Ling, who does she think she is? Always stealing the limelight. Slowly he unclenched his fist, one day, he would challenge Jiu Ling to a duel to the death, just wait and see...
While joy spread in some houses, it did not reach the FCA alliance. Not only did they have a better mecha model, Jiu Ling's personal ability was formidable to an astonishing extent. She stood firm, without a trace of movement, showing the true strength of a 12-star general. It was not just her brute strength, but also a kind of intimidation, a kind of self-proclamation. No one among the young generation of the Federation, or the world for that matter, could shake her position.
Elvis spat to himself in irritation, "Damn it. If I had a superior mecha, I wouldn't be so humiliated." The Gun Rider continued to put pressure on Jiu Ling. As for Zhang Xiaobo, who had yet to move, he was secretly planning an ambush, waiting for an ideal moment to strike, even if it meant defying the Heavenly Kings.
Unfortunately, despite his waiting, the opportunity never came. Instead, the Gun Rider found himself increasingly in danger. In less than ten seconds, Elvis could barely defend himself, let alone attack!
After blocking 12 consecutive attacks, an angled moon-like arc flickered through the sky. The Gun Rider's arm was instantly severed in Jiu Ling's counterattack. In a cold sweat, Elvis cried out, "Quit dawdling! I need backup!"
Seeing the situation worsening, Wes desperately drove his Gun Rider to attack. In the face of imminent danger, he didn't overthink it. He swung his rifle, aiming it directly at the lower body of the Devil Angel.
Jiu Ling was one step ahead. With one hand, she caught the Knight's spear. It was difficult to imagine how much counter-shock she must have felt. But Jiu Ling is Jiu Ling; the Mecha merely shivered slightly and then she jerked back, causing the Gun Rider to shoot towards her.
Zhang Xiaobo was just beginning to react. Before his Mecha could completely land, the Devil Angel turned around and kicked reflexively. What Jiu Ling didn't know was that Zhang Xiaobo was the type of warrior who explodes into action at critical moments. At the crucial moment, the Gun Rider executed a Thomas spin, avoiding the attack through desperate and abrupt maneuvers.
Hmm, interesting, Jiu Ling thought, her eyebrows raising slightly as she continued to suppress him with her Mecha...
This time, Zhang Xiaobo wasn't as lucky as he had been. Aside from the advantage of her Mecha model, Jiu Ling was superior in speed, strength, and experience—enough to defeat them both. With every sword strike from the Devil Angel, the Gun Rider stumbled backward, stirring up clouds of dust. Although Zhang Xiaobo tried to retaliate with a laser shot, it was in vain. The enemy was two levels higher than them, and was one of the most powerful elites surpassing ordinary Red Cloaks in the world.
Seeing the situation, Elvis, with fury in his eyes, decided to distract Jiu Ling to help Zhang Xiaobo, "Hold on, brother!" But their situation became even more difficult when the 4th Generation Attack mecha joined the fight. But surprisingly, the speaker on the Devil Angel broadcasted Jiu Ling's voice saying they did not need to interfere.
She wanted to fight three opponents alone? She indeed didn't consider the Federation soldiers a threat. It was true that taking on three opponents would require her full attention, but she was operating a superior Mecha and outclassed them in ability.
Gazing at the two rapidly approaching opponents, Jiu Ling entered her strongest state for the first time. Everyone in the world bore witness to an incredible scene: With a swift pirouette, the gleam of her sword swept across the light screen as quickly as fleeting gold.
By the time they processed what had happened, two of the mechas had lost their combat abilities, their lower halves neatly severed. Sparks flickered at the breakage...
Clang clang clang clang... Several more chopping strikes followed, and within half a second, the limbs of two mechas were crippled, their heads dropped, and the surrounding area inside the cockpit was pitch black. No matter how frantically the two operators pounded on the control desk, there was no response, only the faint glow of red and green indicator lights flickered intermittently. Without an Intelligent Brain, even the hatch couldn't be opened.
This was Jiu Ling, a future king standing above the world, he said, "Just leave."
The correct choice now is to flee, but every person must eventually face death. What dominates is not the weight of death but the figure standing in such moments. How could a member of the Federal Army simply walk away?
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaobo was stunned, then laughed. At some point, the fat man had changed, he had ties, he had the dream of becoming a Red Cloak. Although he was still a coward, trembling all over... he too was a member of the Federal Army, possessing the dignity of a soldier. He would defend his country's territory in the same way, which was to fight! Not to mention there were two comrades with him, even though he hadn't met the Assault driver before.
"Quit prattling, bitch. Grr!" Gun Rider responded with action, stepping heavy-footed. He would not abandon his soldier's dignity. After a roar, he instantly rushed to kill. Through the Light Screen, people had deep respect for him. They could feel his readiness to die.
When an almost Red Cloak gives their all to protect what they want to protect, their output is fearsome. Seeing Gun Rider leap and attack until it seemed they would both perish together, even Jiu Ling had to marvel. No matter how stormy you are, I will avoid the edge for the moment. For a while, the frenzied counterattack truly did push Jiu Ling back.
The biggest drawback of going all-out in an attack is the disproportionate consumption. Before long, Gun Rider slowed down. People held their hearts in their hands for the admirable soldier.
After defense comes the counterattack. When Jiu Ling saw the right moment, he took a few quick steps forward, unleashing several chop attacks. All went silent. The three mechas had lost all combat capability. Although they weren't dead yet, sometimes, torment is worse than death.
"Three fearless soldiers who are not afraid of dying, is there someone to save them? Or has the Federal Army run out of people? I, Jiu Ling, am willing to issue an endless challenge to the Federation."
The so-called endless challenge is the fight to the death between two parties. Seeing the scene and hearing the voice, the crowd in the square almost lost control of their emotions! Damn it, where are the reinforcements? The citizens of the Federation naturally did not understand that this was a conspiracy by Saudi. But once the public's emotions get out of control further, the upcoming war will be easy to fight.
Of course Jiu Ling knew that no one would show up at this time. It was impossible for the Federation's super soldiers to support him in time. Local armed forces would take a few more minutes to arrive. There was enough time to complete the mission. Even if another Red Cloak appeared, it wouldn't be enough to fight.
5, 4, 3, 2…
The looming countdown sank the hearts of countless alliance members into the abyss. But even if they knew they were facing death, brave soldiers would still charge bravely without hesitation. As to why, there might be many reasons, but undoubtedly, the three men were Federation soldiers. They would fulfill their final mission and duty, to defend the dignity of the soldier.
In the face of absolute power, however, dignity seemed futile. They indeed defended the dignity of the soldier, but because of this, they would soon lose their lives. Dammit, who will come to save them? If there is a God in this world, please show up now.
People turned their heads again one after another... Their thoughts continued to hope for a miracle, even Athena prayed.
Perhaps an angel's prayer had taken effect. A black mecha fell from the sky. Through a loudspeaker, just as the countdown had reached 1, another cold voice suddenly echoed across the square: "I challenge you endlessly."
The voice was so familiar it was shaking. It was an electronic synthesized sound. People seemed to have heard it somewhere before, but they couldn't recall.
The voice was familiar to Jiu Ling. He tried to deduce whether it might be another Red Cloak. He wouldn't mind more of them showing up in this situation. If he could defeat more people, it would undoubtedly strike a heavy blow to the morale of the Federation. He said: "Whether to accept an endless challenge depends on whether you're worthy, I, Jiu Ling, despise killing the unknown. Who are you?"
"Revenge Shadow Rider."
Only four brief words responded to Jiu Ling. People's minds were like lightning, exploding with a tremendous crash!
