The Star Knight

"Today is a good day to die!"

Photon 3700 flew out of the canyon, suspended under the dark sky, and the spaceships of the mercenaries flew out of the mirror of aurora like eagles leaving their nests.

"Follow me! Under my leadership!" Xun's battle declaration resounded through Lie Xing: "Regain the glory of mercenaries! We live and die for war!"

"The victim will be buried under the hero's tombstone and become the eternal patron saint of this land!"

"Swear! Willing to die for your king! Thousands of years later, today's battle will become an immortal chapter of history!"

"Willing to die for the king." A deep and familiar voice came from the communication channel.

"Urka—!"

All the mercenaries were stunned, and another mech returned to their side.

"Willing to die for the king!" All the mercenaries shouted in unison, their blood boiling.

"I will open the way for you!" Urka said, "It's time to take it all back!"

Urka, Haitang, Song of Time, Xun's Photon 3700, True Fire Phoenix—five mechas led nearly a hundred Photon 3700 across the sky and flew to the City of Souls of War. All the spaceships rushed out.

The city of war spirits opened its protective cover, and the light cannons of the outer atmospheric space turret fell, and tens of thousands of photons 3700 flew out of the square, rushing towards the real fire phoenix.

Just in time!Opal was afraid that they would not come or stare at Xun's landline, since the targets were all himself, then it would be easy, Phoenix released a halo of fire, and bounced all the mechs away with a bang.

More and more combat spaceships took off, Cullens sent a communication command, and shouted: "The fifth team, the sixth team to respond, our own A1——A16 to supplement the Opal Flame Machine, Song of Time and Violet lead the left and right wings outflank."

Tens of thousands of defense planes flew out of the city of war spirits, Opal's heart trembled, but he saw those defense planes take off one after another, flying out of the atmosphere.

"It's Rosen's troops!" Someone shouted, "Our own people!"

"I wish you a long life." Rosen's voice said in the communication channel: "I will defend the outer perimeter of the planet for you."

The mercenaries immediately gained momentum, and the real fire phoenix bombarded the defensive layer with shocking power. The whole city of war spirits was shaken by the power of the ancient gods, and the sky and the earth were cracked in the dark night. Shaken, the defensive layer was broken, and the lightning rod burst out tens of thousands of dazzling electric lights, forming a net, and shooting at the battle group from all directions!

"Phoenix!" Opal said, "Turn on reverse elimination."

The red mecha shook its six pairs of flame wings in the air, and all the electrical energy of the whole star was ripped away at this moment. In the blazing electric light, Opal could no longer see what was happening outside. He stretched his limbs, just Like the moment when Cologne drove the Taoist into Liexing a long time ago, it became the hub of the battle situation, suppressing the million-volt high-voltage all-star defense grid.

The electric current passes through Phoenix's shell, Opal only feels that at this moment, his soul frequency seems to be integrated with Phoenix, every cell and every atom in his body is rolling in the torrent of electric sea, becoming almost transparent.

At the same time, his power of faith was also unusually quiet, as if it had been washed extremely clear. This situation only lasted for less than a second before violent shocks occurred.

The visible light screen unfolded above his head, on which an imperial cruiser was approaching, firing a light concussion cannon towards the ground, and the landing point was at the height of the Battle Soul Square where Opal was.

The Bloody Army has completely captured the capital, and the spaceships shot at the ground. The Photon 3700 piloted by the Imperial Faction all escaped, and countless manned spaceships flew away from the City of Battle Spirits one after another, apparently receiving orders to retreat.

"Warning." Phoenix said: "Your power of belief is not enough to support the reverse elimination, you must cancel the traction mode immediately, Opal!"

The next moment, Opal's soul felt a piercing pain, as if something was disintegrating his whole body.

"No—" Opal said loudly, "Hold on a little longer!"

The shock wave became stronger and stronger, and Opal's soul seemed to be disintegrated and shattered into fragments under the repeated frequency conversion of the electric field. His spirit was suffering great pain, but at this moment, two forces of faith Charge from front and behind at the same time!

A force of faith is like roaring lava and fire rushing towards Opal!

Another force of faith is like a vast sea, and monstrous waves rush into his body.

The belief of the first blaze seemed to notice something, and it disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Opal: "!!!"

His pupils shrank violently, and then, supported by Rector's majestic belief, he gathered his whole body, and the golden and red giant sword in both hands merged into one, pulling thunder and electric arcs all over the sky, and swung it into the air!

That arc was like a galloping dragon, piercing through the cruiser on the zenith in an instant, causing it to explode into a fireball.

"What was that just now? Phoenix?" Opal said.

Phoenix didn't answer. With Opal's thoughts, countless light screens unfolded and rotated around, and each light screen was a battle scene. At every moment, someone sacrificed and someone won. Blood and fire spread to everyone in the city of fighting spirit At an inch corner, the building collapsed, and the glass shattered and erupted in the sound of explosions.

Gradually, the electric current became weaker and weaker. The Bloodbathed Army took control of the entire capital. The mercenaries sent by the Empire could no longer resist. They seemed to have received the final retreat order and turned around and flew out of the atmosphere.

The Bloody Army captured the War Soul Building and captured the planet's defense center. All the current was removed, and Opal trembled all over. He fell to the ground on one knee, gasping for breath.

Phoenix turned into pieces and disintegrated, returning to his ring finger as a ring.

The torrential rain fell again, and Opal knelt down on one knee, gasping for breath in the waterlogged square.

With the withdrawal of the power system of the whole city, the world fell into darkness, and then the giant light screen in front of the War Soul Building lit up, and the golden iris flower logo appeared, glowing with bright light.

"we won!"

"we won--!"

The mercenaries uttered shouts that shook the sky, forming a torrent. Opal got up tiredly and walked slowly towards the War Soul Building. He climbed up the steps, and the main entrance of the building opened.

"The battle is not over yet." Xun said: "All the troops are in position, ready for the planetary defense battle!"

Opal ran up the steps and entered the War Soul Building. The situation inside was in chaos, with blood and explosion marks on the ground. A mercenary said: "Opal! Let you go to the [-]th floor!"

The surrounding electronic light screens all showed failures, and a few floors were lighting up step by step, and the clerks were noisy, and they were rushing to their respective floors under the protection of the mercenaries to take over the mercenary union.

Opal jumped onto the hoverboard. There were a dozen or so mercenaries standing on it. They were almost overweight. The red light on the hoverboard flew to the upper floors of the War Soul Building. A mercenary leader introduced to Opal: "This is Former mercenary union president, Mr Lawrence."

Opal nodded, and took advantage of the short time in the elevator to salute him as a mercenary, and the group leaders saluted one after another.

"I wish you a long life." Lawrence bowed slightly and said, "The red mech just now is your car?"

"My friend," Opal said.

The mercenary captain laughed, and Lawrence nodded and said, "Very brave, you are all brave."

Opal said: "But it also destroyed the mother star."

A group leader said: "It will get better gradually."

Lawrence agreed: "Everything will be built on the ruins."

"Do it well! Lawrence!" Another group leader said: "Otherwise, you will be abolished!"

Everyone laughed for a while, Lawrence said: "I'm not afraid of you, even my clerk can't handle it, and you want to abolish me?"

At that moment, everyone was laughing up and down.

With a ding, the electronic female voice reminded: "220, the seventh floor, the cultural and administrative headquarters of the mercenary union."

Lawrence said: "I'm leaving first, and then it's our civilian responsibility. Goodbye, everyone."

Opal and the group leaders said goodbye to him one after another, Lawrence trotted along the corridor to the seventh floor of 220, and the hoverboard continued to go up.

"Is he also from the Empire?" a mercenary asked.

"A hybrid of the Sphinx and the Gray City." A group leader answered him, saying: "He has a very bad relationship with the empire, and he was suspended several times when the former king was in power."

"I heard that he is pro-Meteor Corps." Someone said.

"It's just a rumor." The other team leader said, "Because he suggested Lie Xing to merge into the Dark Alliance, Azeroth didn't like him too much, but Lawrence's handling ability is first-class. In the past 300 years, Lie Xing Seventy percent of Xing’s trade union is able to prosper because of him.”

Opal said: "I hope he can revive the trade union."

Ding sound, electronic female voice: "Five hundredth floor, Azeroth office."

"It's rotten." The group leaders laughed and said, "It's been two generations of Azeroth."

Opal smiled and said, "That's good, at least Wrench has been thinking about the former king, so I'm leaving."

He waved to everyone and entered the area of ​​the Mercenary King's office, while the rest of the regiment leaders continued to take the elevator up.

In the central flower bed, a pom about [-] centimeters in size came out and looked at Opal curiously.

Opal stopped and was attracted by it. He remembered that six years ago, he and Raymond had put a very small Pom here. Bo's head.

Opal laughed and said, "You have grown so big!"

Pom jumped up and down, seemingly happy, and five little fluffy Pom emerged from the flower bed, hiding behind Big Pom, their black bean eyes rolled and looked at him together.

Opal knelt on one knee and said with a smile, "These are your children?"

Big Bom made a chirping sound, not knowing what it meant. Opal touched its head with a fingerless hand, and poked the little Boms one by one with his fingers, and the little Boms desperately slammed down on Big Bom. shrink.

Opal stood up with a smile, almost colliding with Raymond behind him.

"Don't appear suddenly without making a sound." Opal was terrified.

Raymond smiled, looking at the little Boms.

Opal said: "Remember? We put it here together before."

Raymond looked at Opal for a long time without speaking.

Opal: "?"

Raymond smiled and said, "Remember, they have grown up, you have grown up, and it has grown up too."

Opal said: "Oh, actually, I guess I am about the same as I was six years ago... let's go, what is Xun doing?"

He took Lei Meng's hand, and the two walked towards the office. Lei Meng also wore fingerless gloves.

"He should be in a meeting with the civilian backbone of the trade union right now." Raymond pondered for a moment, then said, "Wait a minute."

The door of the office opened, and several clerks came out, holding chips in their hands, nodding at them, ran to the entrance of the suspended elevator, and quickly said inside: "Is Opal? Come in."

Opal stepped in, and there were many people inside, including Haitang, Urka, Aurora Falcon and a child. "

"Come and drink." Opal couldn't bear it any longer, he tried his best to find a place to sit down: "Where's the wrench?"

"It's next door." Xun didn't look at Opal, and said to the projected deconstruction map of the Fortress of the Saintess: "Karens took the spaceship into the sky to pick up Rosen, your teacher was with Raymond just now...Raymond? That gentleman didn't come with you?"

Raymond said, "He's by Mrs. Anta's side."

Xun nodded, and several people found their seats to sit down, Xun said: "The second phase of the battle is about to begin, Opal, I can't help you, I have to stay behind Lie Xing."

Opal took a sip of the water that Raymond handed him, waved his hand and said, "Is it still a deal?"

Xun was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "Of course, but the fact that Spanner went to the fortress with you, we can't let too many people know. When I come back after the mission, I will find a way to clear his name."

Opal nodded, and Raymond said, "Azeroth, when will you publish your manifesto? Let me see the route you have drawn up?"

"This is Mr. Rector's suggestion to me." Xun said: "For the time being, the succession announcement will not be issued, and the imperial ambassador and all imperial officials will be detained, and a communication will be sent to negotiate with the person in charge of the fortress. I will hold them back , until the negotiation breaks down, there should be ten hours left."

Urka pointed to a tarmac outside the Holy Maiden, and said: "There can't be too many people, let alone alarm the Imperial Army, so we have to mix in the retreating battleships and mechs of the other side, and find a way to hijack a battleship and let them stay in the fortress." Surface landing."

"Go along this road." Quickly said, "Advance quickly, enter the central point of the fortress, blow up their main energy furnace array, and then withdraw the whole army immediately. The current problem is that the main energy furnace has a total of Thousands of 440, if one of them fails to operate, the isolation board will fall down and lock the explosion area. Moreover, after an explosion, it will inevitably alarm the guards of the fortress. It is quite difficult to blow up all the main energy furnaces. I guess we only need to If it blows up [-]%, the super optical concussion cannon in the fortress will not be able to supply enough energy, and there will be a chance of a deadly battle..."

Opal said: "So I need a wrench to let him abolish the defense system here."

"You think too highly of wrenches." Haitang stroked her hair and said, "He has no time to tinker with his robots and programs in these years."

Opal said: "I believe he can do it, or ask himself? Raymond, what do you think?"

Xun said, "Wait a minute, he's still in the cubicle."

Raymond rubbed his nose thoughtfully, and said: "The power systems of this kind of optical oscillation cannon are all intertwined with each other. I think that after entering the power energy furnace array, wait for the first time. Wait until the optical oscillation cannon is turned on. When bombarding the Fierce Star, the power furnace that powers it will be directly blown up, so that the explosion will spread along the energy pipeline until...here."

Raymond's finger hit the fort, and the red light on the fort flashed.

"It's too risky." Opal said: "In case we make a mistake, the optical shock cannon will be activated first. Even if it is blown up after activation, it will be enough to blow up the City of Battle Spirits."

"Hmm." Raymond nodded slowly.

"It's not a bad idea," Urka said.

Aurora Falcon kept looking at Raymond, as if he had discovered something.

Opal warned Aurora Falcon to stay silent with his eyes, and he finally discovered the similarities between Raymond and Corolin.But this is definitely not a good time to speak up.

Aurora Falcon's eyes were very complicated, Raymond just glanced at him, Aurora Falcon did not dare to make eye contact with him.

Opal said: "Let's act in the same way, call the wrench out."

Raymond said to Opal: "If the situation is not as smooth as expected, you can try this route at the last moment."

Opal nodded, and quickly said, "Raymond, are you going too?"

"I won't go." Lei Meng put one hand on the back of the chair, put it behind Opal's shoulder, crossed his legs, and said relaxedly: "Opal is enough to deal with it. I will stay on the ground and assist you."

He took a sip from the cup Opal had drunk, glanced at Opal, and smiled.

Opal whispered: "You also have to be careful, that guy is not easy to mess with."

Lei Meng hummed and said, "There is a teacher here, so don't worry."

Xun said: "Bring out the wrench. Opal, Urka, Haitang, and her younger brother will follow you to the battle. Everyone must come back safely."

Opal said, "Try your best."

Xun immediately exploded and said, "What's your name!"

Opal yelled at him and said loudly: "I don't know if I can come back alive!"

Xun said: "At least you have to say a few words on the scene! This is called morale boosting, understand!"

Opal said: "You should take care of yourself first... Where are Xi De and Yinlong?"

Xun said: "That pair of dog and boy are not qualified to enter here."

The wrench was brought over, and his appearance interrupted the conversation between Opal and Xun. Not long after they parted in the Holy See, Opal was surprised to find that the soul of the wrench seemed to have returned when they met again.

His eyes were red, followed by Lily and a child, he said quickly: "The family fun is over, Your Majesty."

Wrench said: "Actually, I would rather you execute me, Your Majesty Azeroth."

Lily said, "Don't do that, Wrench."

Xun pressed both hands on the desk and gave Opal a look with his eyes. Opal said: "Wrench, can you invade the defense system of the fortress' energy furnace array?" Wrench said: "If I say no, what will you do?"

Opal shrugged and said, "I can't just say it straight, I have another plan, which Raymond came up with just now, let's go, I wish you good luck."

"Wait!" Lily said, "What's your name? I want to talk to you."

Opal turned around, and Lily chased him out of the office with a familiar look in his eyes.

"You can call me Little Ouou." Opal laughed.

Lily said, "Well, I don't know why, they all believe you..."

Opal said, "What about you?"

Lily was silent for a long time, and said: "I believe in you too, please be sure to bring the wrench back. Whether he is alive or dead, don't let his body stay in the enemy's fortress."

Wrench got down on one knee, held the child in his arms, and said, "Nile, Daddy is going to fight, you stay here and listen to Mama."

He hugged his son and stroked his immature forehead with his forehead. Neil said, "Dad, come on."

Spanner smiled wryly, touched Neil's face, got up and left the office, and said to Opal, "I'll wait for you at the back door."

Opal glanced at him, ignored him, and said to Lily, "Yes."

Lily nodded and hugged Opal. Opal patted her on the back and said, "Raymond, won't you come and see me out?"

Raymond drank his coffee, took a look with his head, got up and went out of the corridor, Opal always felt that Raymond was a little abnormal today, so he slapped him on the shoulder suspiciously.

Raymond put his arms around Opal's shoulders and said, "I'll send you down, you can come back smoothly, I have confidence in you."

Opal said: "Well, I also have confidence in myself. The teacher said that as long as the power of faith is strong enough, it can destroy a universe."

The hoverboard descended slowly and passed through the huge transparent window. Raymond watched the scene outside and said, "It can create a new world."

Opal smiled and said, "You must be careful of Kyle Lei."

Raymond said: "Don't worry, he is not my opponent."

Opal grabbed Raymond by the collar, wanting to give him a farewell kiss, surrounded by mercenaries, Raymond felt a little uncomfortable, and said, "Should we kiss again when we come back?"

Opal: "..."

Opal wanted to give his handsome face a punch, but after thinking about it, he said, "Then I'm leaving."

"Don't take it lightly." Raymond sent him outside the back door and said, "But don't be too nervous, think about what the Great Astronautics Association taught you." Pointing to his head, he said, "Like an adventurer, Solve problems with your mind, not your strength."

Opal hummed, and seemed to have found his way. Outside the back door, a Photon 3700 was waiting in the small apron, and Wrench was standing in the middle with tools and a small robot, drenched in the rain.

Violet and Steel Feather stood on both sides, and Urka and Haitang were overhauling their mechs.

Opal glanced at the clock, it was nine hours and 47 minutes before the thunderstorm day passed.

"Urka, Haitang." Opal said, "You just need to send me and the wrench into the Saintess Fortress."

Urka touched his head and said, "Are you sure?"

Opal said: "The fewer people there are, the less likely it is to expose the target. Your mechs are too big, unlike mine, which can be folded at any time..."

Opal stretched out his left hand, and the rings spread out, turning into a fiery red mech.

"My God." Wrench murmured, "Opal, where did you get this thing?"

Opal smiled and said, "You can easily alarm the imperial guards."

"Understood." Haitang said, "I wish you both good luck."

Wrench climbed onto a Photon 3700, and Urka whispered to Opal, "Boy, bring Wrench back safely, please."

Opal nodded silently, entered the Photon 3700, closed the hatch, the red light was on inside the cabin, and it seemed crowded with a wrench added.

Opal checked the energy, braking system, and communication equipment one by one, and everything was in good condition.

"Opal!" quickly ran out the back door: "Come down!"

Opal turned on the display and saw that Xun was holding something, which was his fiery red royal robe. Not long ago, Opal just casually said something nice.

Opal jumped out of the mecha, quickly put the king's robe on him, and said: "You are also the mercenary king, and you fight on behalf of me. The two of us, together, fight hard, come back alive, come on!"

Opal said: "I will win, you also work hard."

Xun: "Opal, I wish you a long life."

At that moment, Opal's heart was full of complicated emotions. The countless blood, dreams, friendship and impulse in the past turned into a simple greeting among the mercenaries.

"I wish you a long life, my king." Opal said.

The two bowed to each other and met face to face with fists.

The final battle is about to begin, and this battle will determine the fate of Lie Xing.

The [-]th floor of the War Soul Building:

Xun took a deep breath, entered the conference hall and sat down.

Hundreds of mercenary captains sat in front of the conference table, and at the other end of the long table was the imperial ambassador shackled by a magnetic lock.

"Let's send a message to the Fortress of the Holy Maiden." Xun said, "Let's start the negotiation."

On the steps in front of the Battle Soul Square:

Rector looked up at the sky, and the three mechs set off from the ground, passed through the clouds, and left the atmosphere.

With the sound of footsteps, Raymond appeared behind Rector and said, "Teacher, our commander Opal asked me to stay on the ground and assist you in capturing Kyle Lei."

Rickett didn't answer.

Exoatmosphere:

A black space shuttle approaches three Photon 3700s.

"An enemy?" Haitang said in the communication channel.

"Don't fire!" Opal said.

There was a communication from the space shuttle, and a man's voice said on the communication channel: "Opal?"

"Raymond?" Wrench frowned.

Opal held his breath and said, "You... teacher?"

"It's me, Opal." Raymond said.

Opal was a little confused, this is Raymond, who was that on Liexing just now?

Raymond didn't mention that name in front of the mercenaries, and said, "He gave Tao to me, and asked me to wait for you here and fight with you."

Opal: "When?!"

Lei Meng: "After I got the War Soul Building, I came here to wait for you, what's the matter?"

Battle Soul Square:

Rector turned around under the gray sky, and said in a deep voice, "It's been a long time."

Corolin smiled and replied, "It's been a long time, teacher."
