"Yes!"

Everyone present responded.

Then, Goli continued, addressing everyone with a solemn expression, "This defensive battle concerns the life and death of Radiance City. I hope everyone can give it their all."

"Understood!"

Everyone responded.

...

Meanwhile, the Legendary-class Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, was traveling at high speed.

Su Mo sat in his chair, leisurely browsing the Star Ring forum.

Just then, an official post was suddenly pinned to the top.

Su Mo was slightly stunned and took a closer look.

"Special Notice: Due to the surge of negative energy, a large number of monsters have formed a monster tide and are attacking Radiance City. Radiance City has now entered a state of war."

...

Su Mo was also surprised to see this post.

He didn't expect the fluctuations at the front lines to have reached Radiance City.

However, Su Mo was speechless as he browsed the comments.

"Wow, I'm so jealous! This is a chance to farm merits!"

"Relying on the Radiance City's firepower network system, attack with all your might, and you'll definitely get rich."

"Alright, stop being jealous, they're risking their lives too."

...

Just then, the operator slowed the ship down, and the leading operator walked over to Su Mo and said,

"We are about to enter the Grey Zone. We will need to perform identity authentication, otherwise we will be attacked by the area's defensive weapons."

"I understand. Let me know when you need to identify me."

Su Mo stretched lazily and replied.

"Okay!"

The main operator replied coldly, then left. He didn't want to communicate with Su Mo at all; he was very aloof.

Su Mo didn't care and continued to browse the Star Ring forum.

At this time, many people living in Radiance City started live-streaming, and others were uploading various scenes to the Star Ring forum.

The number of viewers soared instantly, burying Su Mo's ship post.

Su Mo found a live stream with the highest popularity and clicked in to watch.

He saw a middle-aged man wearing scarlet V-generation mechanical armor and piloting a pseudo V-generation pure mechanical mecha, Shadow, leading a group of subordinates flying out of Radiance City.

This middle-aged man was called Lutmi and was a very famous owner of a pioneering company in the Mecha Empire.

He undertook mercenary missions from various countries and the Star Ring City all year round.

He said to the viewers of the live stream,

"We have now accepted a special conscription order from Radiance City and are heading to battlefield 114. We will be responsible for the defense of the battlefield 114 area."

"Anchor, you're awesome, but with so few people, won't the manpower be insufficient?"

"Anchor is too awesome."

...

Dense barrages of comments rose wildly.

Lutmi said boldly to everyone, "Don't look at our small team, but everyone is an elite soldier. Moreover, the battlefield area has fixed defensive weapons, and part of the Sixth Legion fleet of the Star Ring City is also defending there. They will provide the main firepower, and we are just assisting to prevent any fish from slipping through the net. Everyone, wait a moment and you will see."

"Anchor, I heard that Radiance City has started a state of war. Are there rewards for killing monsters?"

A fan from the rear star field of Radiance City asked excitedly.

"That's right. After the war mode is activated, all monsters killed will be included in the statistics and given different rewards. Look to the right, do you see those special small mechanical balls? Those are not weapons, but battlefield statistics balls, used to count everyone's kills. Even if you die in battle, you don't have to worry about your monster kills not being rewarded."

"Wow, that's awesome."

"The Star Ring City is quite fair and just in this regard!"

...

Half an hour later, Lutmi led his partners to the battlefield area 114.

Here, battleships were lined up.

On both sides of the ships, floated SCx-01 type Giant Maw Fortresses with a diameter of 500 kilometers. Each fortress extended tens of thousands of gun barrels and opened countless launch ports.

In addition to these fixed fortresses, there were also cross-shaped Sky Guardians and KS-04 high-energy railguns and other weapons.

As for the number of mechas and starfighters, there were also quite a few.

Su Mo nodded as he looked at the defense lineup. No wonder people on the Internet thought it was a good opportunity to farm merits when they heard that Radiance City was attacked.

With such strong firepower support, it was indeed easy to get by.

At this time, Lutmi suddenly said, "Everyone, the monster tide is coming, so I won't chat with you anymore. We have to focus on combat. I can only broadcast in real-time from the war perspective and can't answer everyone's questions. Please forgive me!"

"Anchor is awesome!"

"Anchor, be careful."

...

Hearing this, Su Mo's expression became serious, and he watched carefully.

After speaking, Lutmi directly switched the live stream to the first-person perspective and muted the microphone.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the distant starry sky suddenly turned dark red.

Su Mo raised his eyebrows, the number! It made him a little dazed.

Before long, the monsters covering the starry sky completely entered the field of vision. There were Heteromorphs, Star Devouring Beasts, Kiju, Zerg, and so on.

The only thing they had in common was that they were all covered in polluted bloodstains and had scarlet eyes, as if they had no rationality.

Seeing these hideous monsters through the screen, everyone's scalp tingled, let alone those on the scene.

At this moment, all the fixed fortresses and weapons on the periphery of Radiance City were instantly activated, and the firepower was fully unleashed.

Overwhelming beams of light and countless missiles shot out, and all the ships also began to pour out firepower frantically.

One dazzling sun after another bloomed with countless fireworks!

The entire dark starry sky was illuminated.

In an instant, the monsters that came like a tide were blasted to pieces.

A large number of monster tides were cleared, but in the next second, countless monsters surged up again, directly filling the gap.

The monsters that filled in were instantly disintegrated by the dense firepower.

However, a small number of monsters began to break through the firepower and rush over frantically.

At this time, Lutmi and others shouted, "Go brothers, kill those monsters that broke through, we can't let them cause damage to those protective weapons and ships!"

"Yes!"

His subordinates responded one after another.

Numerous mechas and starfighters immediately rushed up and collided with the monsters that slipped through the net.

*Kacha!*

One monster after another was beheaded.

The defense of the entire Radiance City was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Lutmi's subordinates also relaxed a lot, and they said in the communication channel,

"Boss, the situation is okay. Although there are many monsters, the defensive firepower is strong enough, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"Yes, I think so too."

Lutmi nodded in response.

Just then, a scream suddenly rang out in Lutmi's communication channel.

"Ah!"

"What's going on!"

Lutmi frowned and asked.

"Zante's life signs have extinguished."

"Damn it."

"I saw it. Zante crashed into a very special IV-type Heteromorph."

"Are you sure it's a IV-type?"

Lutmi asked, slashing a III-type bug with his sword.

Because logically speaking, Zante was using a peak Fourth-generation mecha, it was impossible to be killed.

"I'm sure. My radar scan shows an IV-type energy reaction."

"You guys watch this side, I'll go and take care of that monster."

Without saying a word, Lutmi controlled Shadow to fly to the right.

"Big brother, do you want me to go with you?"

The other subordinates asked with some concern.

"No need, it's just an IV-type."

Lutmi replied nonchalantly, and then he accelerated and rushed over.

However, when he got closer, Lutmi was also stunned. A very strange monster came into view in the distance. The whole monster had a rotten head similar to a black axolotl, a Bai Ze's body, and Zerg wings. The whole body was covered in polluted bloodstains, and disgusting red pustules squirmed all over it.

"What is this monster?"

Lutmi was also shocked and had never seen such a monster.
