Chapter 784: Chapter 614: Contact (Additional update for Silver Alliance Leader Arain) (Part 4)

“From now on, the left side of the battlefield is yours to command, you’re free to act as you see fit,” he said. “I only have one demand, defeat the insect swarm as quickly as possible and take over planets C181 and C182. When that’s done, hand over the rest to those auxiliary forces and return to reinforce the main battlefield at full strength.”

“Understood, we will not fail the mission!”

Two Legion Leaders responded.

Li Ruiqi then shifted his attention to the main battlefield and began issuing commands.

“Order the central fleet to begin loading all long-range missiles…”

In the starry sky, Su Mo piloted the Gluttonous Mecha at a steady pace when he saw the originally brilliant starscape suddenly turn a deep red.

His expression changed slightly as he said,

“There are too many of them.”

“Don’t mind those worthless bugs, no matter how numerous, they won’t pose a threat to you. Watch out for Type IV Red Cicada Flying Insects though.”

The Fake Creator Swallower reminded him.

“How many are there?”

“Currently, nineteen have been scanned, nine of which are Type IV Lord Level. More may follow.”

The Fake Creator Swallower replied with a grave tone.

Su Mo took a deep breath. Considering the Yanas Kingdom’s Generation IV Mechas in the central battlefield, there were only ten at most, nineteen versus ten. That meant on high-end combat power alone, the opponent was nearly double their strength.

“Let’s go for it!”

Time passed by slowly.

As the two sides grew increasingly closer and entered engagement range, both Li Ruiqi and Beilo issued attack commands at the same time.

Bang~

A fleet of ships and interstellar fighters initiated the attack first.

Missiles were launched.

These rockets whizzed past the frontline Mechas like a meteor shower, shooting toward the insect swarm that filled the starscape.

Boom—

The previously red sky burst into numerous colorful fireworks.

Immediately afterward, hordes of insects fell from the starry sky.

At once, a large swath of the distant stars was cleared, revealing the first wave of firepower was incredibly fierce.

But it had no effect.

Countless Red Cicada Flying Insects immediately filled the gaps left by the fallen, swarming madly, unafraid of death as they surged forward.

Then Li Ruiqi’s voice rose in the communication channel of all Mechas.

“My dear comrades, now is your moment of glory. For the Federation, for the loved ones behind us, please exert your full strength to stop the insect swarm, the glory of the Federation will be with you!”

“For the Federation!”

Countless enthusiastic voices rose.

Then Su Mo and the rest of the vanguard charged ahead at full speed!

To win this battle, it was crucial for the Mechanical Army to contain the enemy. As long as the vanguard Mechas could hold off the swarm, the ships in the rear could deliver continuous firepower.

For every ten minutes they could fight for, the ships at the rear would be able to launch a massive wave of fire support.

Even the countless swarms couldn’t withstand that.

However, all this depended on whether the Mechanical Army could hold their ground. If they were overwhelmed by the insect swarm and it got close to the ships,

The fleet was not far from being done for.

As for why Black Brilliance and Green Gore didn’t join the battle right away, the reason was simple: they were holding back!

In the starscape, Su Mo piloted the Gluttonous Mecha and collided with the countless Red Cicada Flying Insects, which, red-eyed, rammed into his AT field as if they were insane, smashing themselves into a bloody mess without hesitation.

Su Mo controlled the Gluttonous Mecha to open its jaws, sweeping a Heat Radiation Energy Beam across.

The sky full of flying insects burst open!

A swath of insects was cleared away, but in the next second, another overwhelming swarm attacked.

Su Mo felt as though the entire world was about to be dyed red, his scalp tingling with numbness, but he could only grit his teeth and fight on!

At this moment, the Fake Owner · Swallower issued a warning.

“Three Type IV Red Cicada Flying Insects have locked onto you, one of which is Lord Level!”

Immediately, holographic imagery of his surroundings came to Su Mo’s mind, with three large red dots making an encircling approach from different directions, one of which was larger than the others.

“One-hit kill, take out that Lord Level insect, or you’ll become increasingly passive.”

The Fake Owner · Swallower suggested.

Su Mo naturally knew the Fake Owner · Swallower was right, but the difficulty of a one-hit kill was indeed great. However, Su Mo didn’t complain; instead, he hardened his resolve, his pupils contracting as he suddenly unleashed the power of the Gluttonous Mecha.

The biological response of the entire Gluttonous Mecha skyrocketed, its ferocious mouth gaping as it emitted a special roar.

In an instant, the Gluttonous Mecha burst forth, transforming into a streak of light that pierced through the obstructing insect swarm and headed straight for the Type IV Lord Level – Red Cicada Flying Insect in front.

Rather than passively being surrounded and ambushed, it was better to take a risk and confront the enemy proactively.

Inside the Black Brilliance Command Room, the operators were reporting in an orderly manner.

“The Mechanical Army has officially collided with the insect swarm, the First Legion Seventh Battalion, the Sixth Mecha Squadron, the Seventh Squad damaged…”

…..

On the virtual scanning screen, one could see numerous red and green dots colliding together.

Immediately after, one could see the icons on the side of the allied formation dimming one by one.

Once an icon turned grey, it usually meant a loss of contact, either due to severe damage to the mech or death.

Of course, the sacrifice was not in vain; the once overbearing insect swarm was successfully stopped, and the rear Interstellar Fighters and ships were attacking furiously.

The insect swarm was slaughtered under the dense cover of firepower!

“Is it possible to scan for the number and position of the Type IV insects within the swarm?”

Li Ruiqi asked in a grave voice.

“Not at the moment, the enemy is very cunning, hiding within the dense swarm. They are also purposely concealing their presence, reducing their biological responses.”

Putmi replied with a stern expression.

After pondering for a moment, Li Ruiqi pressed the communication button and asked, “Lord Beilo, can you confirm the number and positions of the Type IV insects on your side?”

“Currently, only three have been detected, and they are away from your area. If more are found later, we will notify you immediately. Be careful, these damned insects, though not capable of camouflage, are extremely mobile and very skilled at ambushes,”

Beilo warned seriously.

“Okay.”

Li Ruiqi nodded slightly, then switched off the communication.

At that moment, an operator spoke in astonishment, “Report, the vanguard Gluttonous Mecha is rapidly breaking into the insect swarm and is getting somewhat separated from the main force.”

Li Ruiqi looked thoughtfully and said, “I know.”

“Lord Li Rui, isn’t this too reckless?”

Putmi asked with some concern, fearing that losing the vanguard so early in the battle would be a significant issue.

“Su Mo knows what he’s doing,”

Li Ruiqi asserted calmly.

Just then, another operator monitoring the situation exclaimed in shock, “Report, Lord Su Mo’s Gluttonous Mecha has collided with a Type IV Lord Level – Red Cicada Flying Insect, and the two are now entangled!”

In the depths of space, one could see Su Mo controlling the Gluttonous Mecha entangled with a Red Cicada Flying Insect that was over forty meters long. The Super Alloy Blade held in the right hand of the Gluttonous Mecha was fully thrust into the body of the Red Cicada Flying Insect, its sharp left claw firmly grasping the insect’s body, and its fierce jaws biting down on its neck.

No matter how much it struggled, the mecha did not let go.
