Chapter 1 Locked On

The images of the eight IV-type mechs that were quickly locked onto were automatically assigned numbers No. 1 to No. 8 by the system.

Su Mo, standing beside, carefully observed these mechs with a solemn expression.

No. 1 was thirty-seven meters tall, its body covered with fish-scale-shaped armor. Three number-like blue eyeballs were embedded in its head. Its weapon was a super-alloy scimitar, and three black suppression steel pipes were inserted into its back spine. Its figure looked very agile.

No. 2 was forty-five meters tall, its whole body covered with thick layers of armor, making it bulky. Its neck was abnormally short, with its head directly embedded in the neck. It had a pair of dark yellow eyes, holding a super-alloy giant shield in its left hand and a super-alloy knight's lance in its right hand. Four black suppression steel pipes were inserted into its back spine.

No. 3 was forty meters tall, its whole body covered with pale white armor, with a humanoid body. Its mouth revealed rows of terrifying white sharp teeth. Its left hand had a super-alloy claw embedded in it, and its right hand held a super-alloy blade. A pair of pale white biological wings were embedded in its back, and five black suppression steel pipes were inserted into its back spine.

No. 4 was thirty-five meters tall, its body covered with black patterned armor, with a slightly curved body. Four pairs of diamond-shaped jet devices were embedded in its back. On its ferocious head, the dark black eyes were sunken in. It held two black super-alloy daggers and six black suppression steel pipes embedded in its back.

Nos. 5 to No. 8 were four IV-generation pure mechanical standard mechs, each thirty-five meters tall, with a body made of gray pure metal. A striking, protruding red electronic eye was embedded in the head. The left hand held a light alloy shield, the right hand held a super-alloy long sword, and four pairs of auxiliary jet wings were embedded in the back.

"Data matching complete!"

"No. 1 is IV-generation biological mech Blue Scale, produced by Star Ring City."

"No. 2 is IV-generation biological mech Heavily Armored Apostle, produced by Star Ring City."

"No. 3 is IV-generation biological mech White Bone, produced by Star Ring City."

"No. 4 is IV-generation biological mech Dark Hunter, produced by Star Ring City."

"Nos. 5 to No. 8 are four IV-generation pure mechanical standard mechs Night Guard!"

Then came their specific performance parameters.

*Shua!*

Rows of data popped up.

Su Mo took a deep breath. The performance of those IV-generation biological mechs was basically good. Only those pure mechanical standard mechs were cheap, with slightly poorer performance. After all, the performance of mass-produced and custom-made mechs could differ by dozens of times, but they had the advantage in numbers.

"In our prime, we wouldn't fear them at all, but how are we supposed to fight? There's no chance of winning."

Hai Mo said, feeling very aggrieved.

Spade said in a hoarse voice, "We don't need to win, just hold them back. Once the Black Obsidian breaks through the encirclement, they can scatter and escape."

In fact, Spade didn't expect to defeat the enemy at all. If they really had to fight to the death...

He would have asked Qian Chengxue and the others to give Su Mo one of their mechs.

But the current situation was that once the Black Obsidian successfully broke through the encirclement, it would flee frantically at all costs. All the released starfighters and mech units would be abandoned, and they could only escape or hold out until rescue arrived.

In a sense, this was sacrificing the pawns to save the knight.

Hearing Spade's words, Hai Mo and Graves became even more silent, and Su Mo's face became even more unsightly.

He immediately felt extremely regretful that he should have replaced Qian Chengxue.

So Su Mo turned his head and asked Spade, "Sir Spade, are there any other IV-generation mechs?"

"Do you think it's possible? If there were, wouldn't I have taken them out?"

Spade shook his head helplessly.

"Sigh..."

.....

In the starry sky, starfighters and mechs detached from the Black Obsidian and formed mixed formations on their own.

Wang Hai's roar resounded in the public channel.

"Brothers, ahead is our home. Our families are waiting for us to transport the supplies back. Now these damned great powers are robbing us, can we tolerate it?"

"No!"

"Fight them!"

"Kill!"

Led by Wang Hai and the others, groups of starfighters and mechs surged towards the enemy's mobile forces.

At this time, the enemy's eight IV-generation mechs, each team consisting of one biological mech and one pure mechanical mech, went straight for Wang Hai and his group.

Instantly, the mobile units of both sides collided.

Missiles and dense rain of bullets were fired crazily at each other.

*Rumble*

One starfighter after another was shot down.

At the same time, mechs collided with each other, bravely waving alloy blades and slashing at each other.

At this time, Qian Chengxue, piloting the Silver Wing, directly confronted the IV-generation biological mech White Bone and a pure mechanical standard mech Night Guard.

Qian Chengxue didn't dare to face them head-on. Instead, she controlled the Silver Wing to open its mouth and fire a beam of light at White Bone.

However, the White Bone mech swayed and dodged nimbly. It waved its wings and rushed towards Qian Chengxue like a stream of light.

Qian Chengxue controlled the Silver Wing to wave the silver spear in her hand, accurately blocking White Bone's charged strike.

At this time, the Night Guard took the opportunity to rush up from the right, and the alloy long sword in its hand slashed directly at the Silver Wing.

Qian Chengxue quickly controlled the Silver Wing to retreat sharply.

Facing two opponents, she immediately felt immense pressure, and the two opponents cooperated very well.

Just as Qian Chengxue pulled back a little distance, the White Bone mech exploded, accelerating and attacking. It held the super-alloy blade in its right hand and swept it towards Qian Chengxue.

The other Night Guard also turned around and attacked in the first moment.

Qian Chengxue took a deep breath, shouted loudly, and waved the silver spear in her hand to sweep towards the two attackers.

*Peng!*

The weapons of the three collided.

The entire Silver Wing was knocked flying as if it had been hit hard.

However, White Bone and Night Guard were like maggots on a bone, attacking again, and their offensive became even more terrifying.

Qian Chengxue's pupils shrank sharply, and she instantly deployed her AT field!

The attacks of White Bone and Night Guard directly bombarded the AT field barrier, and the entire barrier twisted for a while.

Qian Chengxue's head felt like it had been hit hard. She couldn't help but make a muffled sound. She gritted her teeth and waved the silver spear at White Bone.

However, Night Guard directly held the shield in its hand horizontally, directly blocking Qian Chengxue's attack.

Seeing that the attack was ineffective, Qian Chengxue gritted her teeth and controlled the mech to pull away to the limit.

It could be seen that Qian Chengxue was struggling to hold them back. As for the situation of Wang Hai and the other two, it was not much better than Qian Chengxue. They were completely suppressed.

Inside the Black Obsidian command room.

Li Ruiqi stared at the increasingly bright main gun of the Kun Kun, and constantly issued orders.

"The bow continues to lower."

"Understood!"

"How much energy is charged in the main gun?"

"Seventy percent, should we fire?"

Putemi asked nervously.

"No, continue charging."

Li Ruiqi was very patient.

"The other side is also lowering the bow."

Putemi reminded with a very tricky tone.

"It doesn't matter!"

Li Ruiqi had expected it.

"Report, we have received information from Earth, Speaker Long Ming asked us to hold on. He has dispatched the Third Expeditionary Corps to support us, and also notified all allied ships in the nearby Star Sea to rescue us."

At this time, an operator reported with joy.

However, Li Ruiqi did not have much reaction. Distant water cannot quench thirst, which is why he did not ask for help in the first place.

But it's better than nothing.

Now, we can only rely on ourselves.

Everyone in the command room held their breath, and no one dared to breathe loudly. Everyone understood that they were about to usher in a storm-like attack.

At this time, the holographic operation image screen kept popping up prompts.

"Warning, Black Obsidian has been locked by No. 9, a level 2 battleship."

"Warning, Black Obsidian has been locked by No. 16, a level 2 battleship."

....

As the Black Obsidian advanced at full speed and the distance shortened, the intercepting ships in front became more and more gathered, causing more ships to lock onto the Black Obsidian.

Just when everyone's nerves were stretched to the limit.

The Kunkan took the lead in launching an attack, and its 7,000 launch ports crazily poured out in an instant!

At the same time, the surrounding battleships also unhesitatingly poured out all the missiles.

The missiles filled the starry sky and attacked the Black Obsidian.

"The enemy is attacking!"

Putemi shouted in an unusually sharp voice.

"All interceptor missiles are fired, power output is increased, and acceleration is increased."

Li Ruiqi issued the order in the first moment!

In the starry sky, all the launch ports on the Black Obsidian ship were opened, and one interceptor missile after another was fired.

Most of the missiles that were coming from the sky were intercepted and exploded in the starry sky, which was extremely gorgeous and colorful.

At this time, the Black Obsidian accelerated and rushed straight over, which also caused many missiles to hit its energy barrier.

The entire Black Obsidian continued to vibrate slightly.

At this moment, the Kunkan's main gun launched an attack, and a gray beam of light rushed straight over.

Danluer's attack timing was very good. He deliberately used a barrage attack first to force the Black Obsidian to make certain maneuvers, and then his main gun launched an attack.

At this time, the Black Obsidian had no way to avoid it.

"The other party's main gun has launched an attack!"

"Main gun attack!"

Li Ruiqi knew that he couldn't avoid it at all, so he unhesitatingly issued an attack order.

The main gun on the Black Obsidian was fired instantly, and a bright blue beam of light bombarded the opponent.

The two beams of light crossed and hit the energy barrier of the other ship.

Boom~~

The entire Black Obsidian shook violently.

Putemi's heart was in his throat and he shouted: "The energy barrier has dropped to five percent, we have withstood it!"

"Continue to lower the bow and rush over from the bottom!"

Li Ruiqi continued to issue orders.

"Yes!"

The operator responded quickly.

In the Kunkan command room, the operator reported with his breath held: "The main gun failed to break through the opponent's defensive barrier, it was almost there."

"Trash."

Danluer said coldly.

"Duke Danluer, we will recharge the main gun immediately."

The subordinate replied tremblingly.

"Stupid, do you think the main gun will have a chance to fire again? The other party keeps lowering the bow and attacking at high speed. Our main gun position is biased upwards. When we have recharged, will we be able to lock on to the other party?"

Danluer敏锐敏锐ly realized what Li Ruiqi was thinking.
