At this moment, Zhou Jiuya suddenly became very certain—
This guy… absolutely isn’t Marshal Huo Chao!!!!
Because if he were Huo Chao, in such a situation, he would always be the first to open his defensive shield as everyone’s savior, not like this guy who, at the first opportunity, came to borrow someone else’s defense shield!!!
Ye Shuo sat blankly in the co-pilot seat, forcefully wiping away the wet marks on his face, covering his face and supporting his forehead. The veins on his forehead suddenly jumped, and he suddenly felt that the emotions he felt just now were fed to the dogs.
The two who had been in disagreement for a hundred years finally reached a consensus at this moment.
But the next second, thousands of energy waves poured down, hitting that invisible defensive shield. At first, there were extremely dazzling and colorful colors, but it only paused for a moment, and then the entire world was flooded in a dazzling white light.
This moment, like an apocalyptic scene, suddenly gave Huo Xianfeng a strange sense of familiarity.
As if… he had seen it somewhere…
A few fragmented images flashed through his mind, but before he could grasp them, they vanished like fireworks.
The entire attack lasted for a full minute before gradually coming to an end.
Swoosh—
At this moment, the buildings within a hundred miles had been completely leveled, not even ruins or broken walls remained, and everything touched by the energy waves had turned into ashes.
Zhou Jiuya’s expression became serious, “Such a powerful energy…”
This level of power is almost comparable to an aircraft carrier.
Although aircraft carriers are cumbersome, precisely because of this, their huge size can carry a huge supply of energy. Although Wan Jiang’s firepower output at full power is enough to reach the level of just now, such an attack would consume too much for a mecha.
Now, the defensive shield supported by Wan Jiang is already badly damaged, and the main body of the mech is no longer as imposing as it was at the beginning, but had a rather battered appearance.
However, this appearance was quite in line with the appearance of the crouching Forbidden Abyss that hid behind it.
——Both sides looked like a pair of brothers surviving with difficulty.
In fact, most of the impact was blocked by Wan Jiang, and Huo Xianfeng was very casual throughout the entire process. He just squatted behind Wan Jiang, in a posture that was like an old man sitting under a big tree to cool off in the evening.
Jiang Ci, who was forced to join in cooling off, helplessly said nothing: “……”
If it weren’t for the fact that Xiao X was still being temporarily used as the core of the Forbidden Abyss, he would have rushed forward to join the battle long ago.
This is probably the most leisurely battlefield experience of the young general, and the second time he saw Zhou Jiuya lose face in front of others.
——The first time was when he saw that man being beaten by Ye Shu.
“Ha—”
At this moment, Cruzi, who had climbed out of the deep underground, gasped for breath, “No… you are not… ”

“Itbe Alesj! Xb yjmx jcv afii Ufl Jtjcusec, Llr Zjpfras atf Swqfgbg’r qbrlalbc kbc’a ijra obg j ibcu—”
Boom!!!
Huo Xianfeng raised his hand and fired another shot, but this time Cruzi dodged very keenly. This clever and successful dodge probably gave him a great sense of confidence and pleasure, so he immediately arrogantly laughed,
“Using the same method, do you think I would…” Pa!
But in fact, that shot was not aimed at him at all, but exploded the ground next to him, throwing an unknown mecha wreckage into the air, and it happened to pierce into the sound system of the Zerg bio-mech’s abdomen.
“…Zi, Zi…”
Ding, sound system malfunction.
Cruzi: “……”
Huo Xianfeng couldn’t help but click his tongue again.
For some reason, this guy always talks a lot, making him feel inexplicably annoyed.
“You—!!!”
Inside the cockpit, Cruzi let out a roar that no one could hear. He immediately prepared to launch another attack but, just at this moment, a huge black shadow suddenly cast over everyone’s heads.
The three mechas simultaneously looked up.
Hiss—!!!
A piercing scream, between a python and an insect buzzing, came from above. The strange giant mecha swiftly descended, opening its terrifyingly large spider-like mouth and heading straight for the suspended sun.
In its countless compound eyes, huge red-gold cores were reflected.
If this scene were described in the tone of a mythical legend, it would undoubtedly be a story of a giant python swallowing the sun.
“Hahaha…!!!” Cruzi immediately burst into hearty laughter, “The core of Forbidden Abyss must be ours—”
But, separated by a distance of a hundred meters and with the cockpit having excellent soundproofing, no one could hear him speaking. Even before he finished speaking, Huo Xianfeng directly turned his head and—ran away.
Cruzi: “……??”
Zhou Jiuya: “…….??”
However, at this moment, the Legion Commander had no time to care about this mysterious person who could control Forbidden Abyss. He immediately prepared to take off and stop the python mecha.
Smack! Ye Shu suddenly grabbed Zhou Jiuya’s wrist.
“Immediately retreat!!!” The gazes of the two collided in the air for a moment. Zhou Jiuya’s eyes flashed with countless complex emotions, as if there were thousands of questions hidden deep into it, but at this moment, he made only one action.
—That is to immediately set Wan Jiang’s power output to the maximum.
The huge black giant gave up ascending and immediately turned around to follow Forbidden Abyss’ footsteps, swiftly retreating.
Actually, if everything external was set aside and they only watched the familiar back in front of them, Zhou Jiuya and Ye Shu’s hearts would find it very difficult to control that certain sour taste of nostalgia from emerging. But just thinking about—
The reason why this figure appeared in their field of vision was purely because the other party ran away ahead of them when they were escaping. And this subtle emotion immediately disappeared.
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
——Marshal Huo Chao would never be such a despicable person!
The thoughts of the two once again synchronized to a consensus.
At this moment, they only saw a huge and incomparable monster that was approaching from the collapsed and cracked sky, opening its blood-stained big mouth, about to swallow the sun, and flee from this place.
Both sides seemed nervous, as if what was about to be swallowed in the sky was not a precious core that must be seized at all costs but a terrifying nuclear bomb that was about to explode.
In fact, this metaphor is very appropriate.
Because just at the moment when the two scrapped brothers’ mechas were retreating, the giant monster mecha swallowed the dazzling sun in one bite. At this moment, the entire underground city fell into the ultimate darkness.
But such darkness only lasted for ten seconds.
After ten seconds, the huge and strange mecha suddenly stiffened in the air. Its dense compound eyes vibrated violently, and then bulged, as if something in its brain was rapidly expanding.
The sticky and silent night finally welcomed light again—
Countless dazzling golden lights shot out from the huge spider head. Then, the strange spider face showed numerous large cracks.
It was like a rugged and mottled rock that finally couldn’t contain the fierce magma inside, and then cracked inch by inch. Even a kilometer away, you could clearly hear the teeth-aching cracking sound.
A curved blue light shield suddenly rose from all directions in the direction of the sun area like water waves. At this moment, Forbidden Abyss, Wan Jiang, and Cruzi, who was chasing after them, were just isolated outside.
The moment the light shield closed, only a deafening explosion was heard. The dazzling golden light instantly engulfed everyone’s field of vision.
Amidst the crazy and terrifying screams, the giant spider face suddenly shattered into pieces. Large pieces of debris burst apart, like a meteor shower, shooting into the ground and creating numerous terrifying craters.
A familiar mushroom cloud suddenly soared.
Zhou Jiuya’s pupils shrank.
——It turned out to be a miniature interstellar nuclear bomb!!!
The terrifying shockwave crazily swept from all directions, but in the end, it was barely contained within that blue light shield.
Zhou Jiuya stared blankly for a few seconds, then suddenly turned his head. Just seeing Ye Shu next to him coldly watching this scene, there was no surprise on his face, as if he had expected it long ago.
Moreover, he was enjoying the scene in front of him very proudly, so much so that he didn’t hide his look of satisfaction, like his hatred had been repaid.
The dried blood solidified on his intact right face, like some kind of coquettish and strange bloody thorn.
Yes.
Zhou Jiuya was only slightly stunned for a moment but quickly figured it out. The core of Forbidden Abyss was of extraordinary significance to Ye Shu. Even if the latter played some tricks in the dark, he would never truly neglect any protective measures or second preparations.
However, he did not expect Ye Shu’s second preparation to be so ruthless. Moreover, when Zhou Jiuya was ready to step forward to compete for that artificial sun, Ye Shu did not give him the slightest reminder.
Would Ye Shu have reminded him if he hadn’t been stopped by Cruzi at that time? This question lingered in Zhou Jiuya’s mind, but the Legion Commander ultimately didn’t ask him.
“Hey—”
Ye Shu stared fixedly at the Forbidden Abyss not far away.
“Who are you, and how did you know?!”
He didn’t say he knew anything, because the fact that Huo Xianfeng turned around and ran just now explained everything.
“Ah…”
A sigh came clearly from the depths of the Forbidden Abyss’s heart.
—Why does everyone have to ask this question again?
“Well, let me give you a brief introduction then.”
The Forbidden Abyss raised its head, and probably because it was a mecha belonging to Huo Chao, even a simple movement felt familiar to Ye Shu, making his scalp tingle.
Moreover, even a brief self-introduction from the other party made him nervous.
“Hello, City Lord-daren, I’m Huo Xianfeng.”
The young voice was filled with a friendly smile.
“As for why I know that it’s not the real Forbidden Abyss’ core… Hmm,”
The black silver mecha giant raised its hand, and in the palm, there was a familiar, slightly glowing sphere.
He said with a smile,
“Because—”
“I’ve already got the real core in my hands.”
