Chapter 515: Chapter 339: History Repeats Itself (Five in One)_4

"It’s finally starting!"

"This time, we must completely annihilate the Imperial Army’s arrogance and smash their heads thoroughly!"

Major Aragon also said.

Su Ming looked at the communication channel interface displayed on the operation screen, where numerous soldiers were continually typing to communicate.

"I’m so nervous!"

"It feels like I’m dreaming."

"I never thought we’d one day be facing the defensive lines of the Dark Star Empire, it’s really exhilarating."

...

Although this communication channel was open to everyone, neither soldiers nor non-commissioned officers dared to speak out loud, and instead communicated by typing. Only officers at the school-level and above were speaking.

Su Ming watched these scrolling comments and issued orders to Rhein and others.

"Form the phalanx!"

"Yes!"

Rhein and others responded.

At this moment, Major Aragon suddenly exclaimed,

"What the heck, a Fourth Generation Mecha? When did an extra Fourth Generation Mecha appear?"

"Really, who is this?"

Ye Hai and others also expressed their surprise.

"Who else could it be but Su Ming? Didn’t you hear about it before?"

Hejassi said outright.

"I haven’t been paying attention lately, I had no idea Su Ming had switched to a Fourth Generation Mecha so quietly."

Curia replied in surprise.

"Ahem, it hasn’t been changed for long."

Su Ming replied somewhat awkwardly.

"Congratulations, junior!"

At that moment, Kaff congratulated Su Ming through the communication channel.

Though he wasn’t very close to Su Ming, coming from the same Imperial Court Academy gave Kaff a favorable impression of him; it was just his personality not to be sociable.

"Thank you."

Su Ming replied politely.

At that moment, in the public communication channel interface, messages kept popping up.

"Did I hear wrong, Commander Su Ming from the Third Group switched to a Fourth Generation Mecha?"

"You’re outdated. Our commander didn’t just switch to a Fourth Generation Mecha; he even deployed Light Speed Fold Flash!"

"Amazing!"

...

At that time, Curia spoke to Su Ming through the communication channel.

"Su Ming, since you’ve switched to the Fourth Generation Mecha, your strength must have advanced by leaps and bounds, right?"

"Not bad!"

Su Ming replied modestly yet confidently.

"Don’t be modest; when you piloted the Third Generation Machine, you took down a Fourth Generation Mecha of the Imperial Army. Now with the Fourth Generation Mecha, you’ll be even more formidable. Don’t slack off in the fight later; you have to play a major role!"

"Curia is right, in the fight later, both you and Kaff need to act as the main forces."

Major Chen Ying also chimed in.

"No problem."

Su Ming agreed readily, embodying the saying that greater power comes with greater responsibility, and he was never one to shrink from a challenge.

Soon all the mechas logged out, and in front of the ships like the Emperor, they formed checkerboard phalanxes and entered a standby battle state.

However, contrary to everyone’s expectations, within the Kaleidi Star Defense Zone in the distance,

The thirteen Nightmare Towers showed no activity, the entire starry sky was eerily quiet, casting an ominous and hair-raising veil over the area.

In the public communication channel,

Major Chen Ying and others exchanged puzzled remarks. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

"What are these Imperial soldiers up to? Are they ignoring us?"

"Something feels off."

...

Inside the Emperor’s Central Control Room.

Colonel Zhou Quan reported to Vickers Major General with a somewhat solemn expression,

"General, our mecha squads have been deployed and formations set, but there’s no movement from the enemy."

"Hmph, playing tricks, pass my order for all troops to advance!"

Vickers was not fooled.

The plan to ambush the Imperial Army defenses was something Vickers also found out just a few hours ago, and there was no way the news could have leaked. Thus, it was impossible for the Imperial Army to have time to set a trap, so in his view, the enemy was just pretending.

"Yes!"

Colonel Zhou Quan responded immediately.

Following the order, the Emperor Mother Ship led the troops forward, with five Mechanical Groups speeding away to intercept.

Just at that moment, the surface of what had been eerily quiet Nightmare Towers lit up with patterned lines.

A shocking scene followed, as each Nightmare Tower split open like a budding flower, extending mechanical petals.

These mechanical petals were dense with Mechas and interstellar fighters.

Swoosh, swoosh!

All these Mechas and interstellar fighters activated, flying out like swarms of moths.

They then formed checkerboard phalanxes in the defensive starry sky.

Su Ming carefully observed these Imperial Army Mechas; the Imperial Soldiers were equipped with the latest Second Generation Mecha·Beast Teeth, and squadron leaders were operating Third Generation Mecha·Beast.

Overall, this force was highly elite, unmatched by any Neutral Country, though their numbers were somewhat small, only 25,000 Mechas and 10,000 interstellar fighters.

At that moment, three streaks of light flew to the fore of the formation.

Two of these figures were Fourth Generation Mecha·Fierce Beast, with their shoulders each painted with a Red Star.

The figure in the center was 32 meters tall, covered in black metal armor, wielding a gray Chain Gun where the tail locked into the Mecha’s right arm, a Particle Beam Cannon mounted on the left shoulder, and gray wings embedded in the back with a painted Red Moon emblem; it was a Fourth Generation Custom Machine·Red Fang.

At that time, Su Ming’s operation screen popped up with identification information.

The driver of the left Fierce Beast Mecha, from Nightmare Corps·Major General Doku; the driver of the right Fierce Beast Mecha was from Nightmare Corps·Major General Reno.

As for the Red Fang Mecha driver, it was Nightmare Corps’ veteran·Bulda Major General.
