After all, Hugo's solo combat ability was extremely strong; he was one of the only two super soldiers with a straightforward combat style, the other one being Sky Shadow.

As for Angelina, being a Mental Ability User, one couldn't let their guard down against her psychic attacks, which could catch you off guard and cause a second of distraction that could be fatal.

As for the Haier brothers, honestly, they were the ones Xia Mu was most wary of. They shared thoughts and intentions as seamlessly as twin flowers, which has scientific explanations. However, groups like theirs often have congenital defects, but the Haier Brothers were different. Growing up in the Charles family was a result of their bloodline that had been passed down through generations. Just like the concept of 1+1, if such a combination had no flaws, the effectiveness they would bring to combat was unpredictable.

Keep in mind, shared vision, thoughts, and even souls can't be trivially described as mere understanding; their combat power could double. Their field of vision almost had no dead angles, and their defense and offense were beyond the reach of ordinary people, with barely any vulnerabilities.

It was evident that the federation's choice was quite wise. Dovir was too young, and although Ophelia was formidable in close combat, she lacked special abilities. In modern warfare, especially among super soldiers, sheer power was no longer the absolute dominating factor. Special abilities were also the key to defeating the enemy. Even top fighters like Sword Dragon and Devil would be cautious facing Mental Ability Users, which was clear as Jiu Ling and Earth Dragon were now within striking distance.

Having just used a powerful move, Younger Haier, also known as Earth Dragon, was currently in a cooldown phase, but Jiu Ling didn't hesitate and attacked, seizing the opportunity to strike while the enemy was down—a battlefield had no room for mercy.

It seemed the gods afar hadn't noticed the situation here, but who could have expected that, at this moment, Earth Dragon suddenly plunged headfirst into the ground and disappeared... in the blink of an eye, it burst from the earth again, its bulldozer-like drill bit carving through any gap, aiming directly at the rear of the Black Edge.

Really, it might not be about fighting prowess alone, but each super soldier had their own specialty. This scene had also taken the Saudi generals by surprise, but the federation side was equally tense. Greedy Wolf, observing through the Light Screen, seemed calm on the surface, but his fingernails had already dug into his flesh.

Of course, ordinary civilians couldn't feel the intense atmosphere on site. They, unaware of the missile's feelings, found the battle thrilling. All else aside, collisions of super soldiers of such caliber were unprecedented—indeed, this clash was the largest super encounter between the two sides in history. Usually, both sides avoided each other to prevent such confrontations, except in key battles like this, which showed how seriously the federation regarded the Flame Legion.

As he dodged an attack, the danger now shifted to Black Edge. "Now is the moment!" shouted Younger Haier, never before so intense in his demeanor.

Boom-crash...

Who would have thought that out of nowhere, a death ray sniper shot would suddenly hit Earth Dragon's shield? Caught off guard, Younger Haier and Earth Dragon were shot down to the ground like a kite with a snapped string...

Seeing Jiu Ling moving in for another strike, Older Haier, ignoring his opponent, rushed forward with almost blazing eyes, screaming his brother's name. But even if his brother's brother showed up, Jiu Ling wouldn't be merciful now. Older Haier had no time for urgent defense, and using a laser to intercept was impossible because Xiuluo blocked his line of sight.

Hum...

In a daze, Jiu Ling suddenly felt the world spinning and her ears deafening... She inwardly cursed, recognizing a Psychic Impact! But she didn't let go, instead choosing to control her mecha to thrust a fatal blow based on prior distance memory...

This was a conscious strike from hundreds of meters away, with a difficulty factor of 9.2, a margin of 0.3, and an overall difficulty ranging from 8.9 to 9.5. It relied on memory, on feeling, on faith.

People stared blankly at the big screen... especially the bigwigs at the Military Department, for whom the camera blocking their direct line of sight was like the last straw...

But who was Jiu Ling? She was a potential warrior who stood at the pinnacle of the world, and she had that confidence — confidence derived from strength. In the next second, she really did it, plunging her light sword fiercely into the mecha!

Hisss... Due to the angle, the strike was still off, and the light sword penetrated deeply into the thigh root along the external armor. Yet, this blow was enough to deprive the Earth Dragon of most of its combat capabilities.

In fact, super soldiers were originally designed in a very special way, with critical areas like the cockpit designed in all sorts of bizarre ways. It could be located in the head, the feet, or even the buttocks, of course, that's an exaggeration. Still, it reflects the ingeniously strange ideas different countries have put into designing their super soldiers. Additionally, since the Earth Dragon was a heavy-duty mecha with burrowing capabilities and a strong overall defense coefficient, it didn't explode. Normally, the interior of a super soldier is so intricately constructed that if even one part suffers damage, it can cause the entire mecha to become paralyzed.

Luckily, the Earth Dragon was still movable, and the Younger Haier was not a vegetarian. He quickly snatched the Devil Angel's forelimb, picked up the main cannon, and took a direct shot at the scanning device...

But who was Jiu Ling? As an ace pilot, after Xia Mu had suffered a Psychic Impact, she had made ample preparations, knowing full well that her strike might not land. She swung her light sword a second time with added force, attempting to sever her opponent at the waist from memory.

The Xiuluo attack appeared simultaneously, and it was this very twist from Xiuluo that let the Older Haier catch a glimpse of Jiu Ling's mecha. Although it was just a fraction of a second, for warriors of such level, this was a significant lapse. With the battlefield situation changing in the blink of an eye, the Older Haier had no time to think. He drew his laser weapon and, without aiming, fired offhand.

Boom! The imaging device instantly flickered with electricity, buzzing... The white, blinding screen effectively left Jiu Ling blind, or more precisely, turned the Devil Angel mecha blind. Jiu Ling could only observe her surroundings through auxiliary monitoring devices, which significantly reduced her combat effectiveness.

However, while her own situation was terrible, her opponent's was evidently worse. The immobile Earth Dragon had to either take to the skies or... At this point, the Saudi super mechas swung around recklessly, but our soldiers were different. With the Flame Warriors around, their suppression of the Saudi super mechas had also become somewhat ineffective.

The camera followed the trajectory of the black gun's shots and revealed that it was 'Number 3' in the black mecha doing the shooting, even while Dovir was leaping to engage. The sniper couldn't focus and fired in haste, hitting the shield of the gun. The Younger Haier was nearly blasted away by the blast wave. A hit to a critical spot would have been undoubtedly fatal.

If such a battlefield harvester were to escape unscathed, the consequences would be unimaginable. After the shot, the federal super soldiers were clearly becoming hesitant, and even Hugo was no longer as passionately engaged as before. He was a super soldier but not a brainless idiot. If you can live, why choose to die?

Although the Earth Dragon was injured, with leg currents flickering incessantly, its condition was still much better than Jiu Ling's, who was relying on auxiliary observation. Without a second thought, the Earth Dragon lunged towards Jiu Ling for a second attack, with the Older Haier simultaneously launching a co-ordinated assault on her.

It was a case of out of the frying pan into the fire; now, the person in danger had become Jiu Ling again. This situation put to the test not only both sides' super soldiers but also their leaders' psychological endurance.

First, the Earth Dragon mecha was hit, and then in an instant, the situation reversed. The uncertainty present in such chaotic battlefields was exactly what Feng Yi dreaded the most. No matter how strong you are, being in a complex battlefield means potentially facing threats from all directions. Maybe, an unexpected shot could take you down.

Jiu Ling was precisely in such a predicament. First, Angelina's Psychic Impact hit her, and then, the protective older brother Older Haier sneakily shot her, precisely hitting her scanning device. It was not a matter of Jiu Ling's strength, but rather it could be attributed to luck. Had Xiuluo moved a tad lower, it would not have hit Jiu Ling, and a higher angle would have made her instantly aware. After all, as a warrior, discerning the entire battlefield is the fundamental principle to stand on.
