Both of them struggled to prevail over the Revenge Shadow Rider when they acted together, let alone after the Light Sword had been knocked away, suggesting that what was to come would be even more passive than the current situation. Kexiao knew he could wait no longer. Although it was a pity, defeating Hugo was indeed the greatest victory of the day.
As for the main forces of the Blazing Legion, no matter how they fought, it was difficult to achieve glorious results when outnumbered. Of course, it was not to say the Blazing Legion didn't stand a chance; after all, morale played an important role in a war. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, Feng Yi missed the opportunity, and next came the time for the super soldiers to retreat.
The Saudi communicators received the retreat order simultaneously. Xia Mu shrugged indifferently; this game of feint and counter-feint had indeed been interesting, he mused. It did not really matter to him; it was just a pity that he couldn't fight until the end.
Now, the one who longed for retreat most was Black Edge. When Jiu Ling left, his pressure became almost insurmountable. Had he not achieved the white coat and been defending with all his might, he would have probably been finished by now. The pressure from the Haier Brothers was in no way inferior to that from the Revenge Shadow Rider. On the contrary, it might have been even greater. Perhaps the Revenge Shadow Rider had not been using his full strength against him, but resisting the Haier Brothers, two at a time, felt like no matter how he defended, it was never enough. After all, the Revenge Shadow Rider only had two hands, while the Haier Brothers, with their impeccable coordination, made you feel like a two-handed person facing a four-handed one. Their movements might not be as fast as the Revenge Shadow Rider, but they covered a wider area and were more effective at restraining, where a single operational mistake could result in the destruction of the mech and the loss of life.
However, retreat was not so easy. It wasn't a place where one could come and go as they pleased. Of course, the Haier Brothers would make their decision based on the situation. Now, seeing that they had the upper hand and were in control, why would they ever let the tiger return to the mountain?
Silver Mary didn't feel much about leaving or staying, as she had completely restrained their only opponent with X Ability, Angelina. This was a testament in itself.
Jiu Ling also secretly breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news. Despite her reluctance to admit it verbally and internally as a sign of a warrior's perseverance, it was true that she couldn't defeat the Revenge Shadow Rider right now. She could feel that the gap in strength between herself and the Revenge Shadow Rider was not as large as before. It wasn't an insurmountable chase, and it was even more so after her scanning device was damaged. She was confident that given enough time, not too much, she would one day be able to defeat the Revenge Shadow Rider.
Undead No. 2 had no intention of retreating, a situation Kexiao had never seen before... No matter how he commanded, the mech of Undead No. 2 always headed towards the Revenge Shadow Rider... What?
"No. 2, get out of here, you're no match for him without a weapon," Jiu Ling roared through the communicator. But you can't expect No. 2 to want to retreat, obviously. He seemed determined to settle the score with the Revenge Shadow Rider.
He wasn't a match with his weapon, much less without it, "Give up on No. 2, retreat immediately." That was Kexiao's final order.
Jiu Ling found it hard to believe, "What did you say?"
"Of course, it's... Give up on No. 2 and retreat immediately. There's obviously no value in rescuing a soldier who disobeys orders." Kexiao spoke slowly and methodically, his voice devoid of any emotion. In fact, when Xiuluo entered this state, it signaled that he considered the mission a failure. It was Xiuluo's own choice; he couldn't possibly let everyone be dragged down because of one person. It seemed the effects of the drug were still not completely stable.
Jiu Ling shook her head lightly. Although she had no deep emotional ties with Undead Nos. 1, 2, and 3, they were still comrades in battle. She couldn't just abandon someone and watch them suffer. With that thought, Jiu Ling charged into battle a second time... "You all go first, we'll be right behind."
Undead No. 3 remained unmoved; he only responded to orders.
Silver Mary hesitated slightly but chose to obey the order, feinting and quickly breaking away.
"Where do you think you're going?" The Sky Demon issued a buzzing mental blast, which was again deflected by Silver Mary. Although defending against the mental blast was strenuous, the one releasing the mental blast was also struggling. Clearly, Mary's ability to defend against mental attacks was superior to the others.
Black Edge was inclined to step forward but was hastily stopped by Xia Mu, who declared that none among them could defeat the Revenge Shadow Rider, especially when No. 2 was mentally unstable. In such a state, he could potentially bring down the whole team. Certainly, with Jiu Ling's skills, even the Revenge Shadow Rider would find it difficult to stop her from escaping, so going to assist her would only increase her burden. Black Edge needed to remember he was still facing the formidable Haier Brothers.
Black Edge said nothing, and with a few zigzag movements, he quickly created distance between them...
The federal soldiers couldn't hear the other side's conversations and were not sure what tactics they were employing, but it was clear that the scales of victory were tipping in favor of our troops. Naturally, they chose to pursue. As for an ambush, if there had been one, it would have surfaced earlier, not now. So there was nothing to fear in pursuing these people. And on the Revenge Shadow Rider's side, there was even less to worry about. Even in a 1v2 situation, he managed to kick the weapons away, so the weaponless Undead No. 2 stood even less of a chance. Of course, the Saudi super soldiers could choose to use ranged weapons, but anyone who understood the Revenge Shadow Rider knew that using ranged attacks against him was the most erroneous decision.
It could be said that, whether in close combat or at range, the Revenge Shadow Rider had already managed to avoid the majority of failure scenarios. Therefore, under any circumstances, there was no need to worry here. It was they themselves who had cause for concern.
