Chapter 1217 Death!

Right as he spoke, a beautiful lotus bloomed in space. It unfurled its petals to reveal more layers. After unfurling eight times, the light finally began to fade as images of the stalk began to fade into the scene.

At that moment, even the people from the Federation and the Twilight Empire, couldn’t help but look towards the center where the lotus faded away as they silently waited for the final result.

Boom! Suddenly, the engine of a mecha erupted. The Twilight Empire began to cheer. That noise meant that Allomone was not dead.

They were very much aware that if Allomone were to die, they would not be able to get out of the situation alive as no one could take on Ling Xiao’s Divine Punishment.

Finally, a broken mecha flew out from the center of the faded lotus.

“Ling Xiao, just you wait!” Allomone’s vengeful voice was heard on the public channel. This loss was definitely a disgrace for him. He would definitely return this lost a hundred fold.

Boom! Another explosion erupted from Allomone’s mecha.

This time, parts of Allomone’s god-class mecha began to explode in tandem. The revving of the engine that was originally there, was now gone. The currently limbless mecha slowly floated in space silently.

Ling Xiao slowly put down the beam sniper rifle he had in his hands. In the crucial moment, he performed perfectly. In less than a second, he switched to his sniper rifle and used his strongest sniping technique to send Allomone to his grave.

The entire battlefield was dead silent. Everyone was shocked by what they saw. In the last few hundred years, there hasn’t been any god-class operator who had perished in a one-on-one battle. However, what was in front destroyed that peaceful record in its entirety, they actually saw a god-class operator die with their very own eyes. This made everyone feel like they were in a dream.

“Ha! General! General! General! General!” After that mind-numbing moment, the soldiers from the Federation’s 23rd Division could no longer control themselves, as they began to chant excitedly with their arms up in the air to show their excitement.

“Duke Allomore died? Impossible!” All of the soldiers from the Twilight Empire couldn’t believe what they had just seen. A Caesar god-class operator, Duke Allomore, who they believed to be invincible, was so easily taken out by Immortal Bird Ling Xiao?

Taking out Duke Allomore actually took a lot out of Ling Xiao. He used all of his techniques and expended all of his tricks, making it a very tough fight for Ling Xiao. However, in the eyes of bystanders, Ling Xiao had the upper hand from the very beginning. No matter if it was when he used his Divine Punishment to hit Allomone, or when he shot using his sniper rifle, all of his actions seemed to be perfectly executed. It pictured the image that Ling Xiao was just overwhelmingly stronger than Duke Allomore.

Ling Xiao took a deep breath and then recharged the twelve wings once again. He pointed them towards the army of the Twilight Empire. Although he took out the god-class mecha, the battle was not yet finished. He must quickly take out the rest of the Twilight Empire’s resistance and completely destroy Three Stars Lock.

Although Three Stars Lock had one of its planets completely destroyed, the situation wasn’t as bad as Ling Xiao had previously thought. Although the two planets had fallen out of orbit, it still quickly managed to reach an equilibrium with each other. It seemed the Twilight Empire had already planned ahead in case something happened to one of the planets. From the current outlook, the results were quite effective.

However, Ling Xiao wouldn’t just give up on something he wanted to do. If destroying one planet wouldn’t let him achieve his goal, then Ling Xiao would prepare to destroy the second planet.

If he wanted to mount a full assault on the second planet, he must take out the Twilight Empire mechas standing in his way. Otherwise, they would definitely use their bodies to block his attacks without any care for their own lives. As for why Ling Xiao wasn’t using the starships to do that, the 23rd Division was currently on their own, so they were limited in terms of energy cells and weapon supplies. Ling Xiao didn’t want to waste the starship’s main cannon on just mechas.

Boom! Divine Punishment was seen again. It could not be blocked. The places where the 12 beams of light had hit were completely wiped away from the face of the galaxy.

Ling Xiao then aimed at the Twilight Empire’s mecha army with his large beam rifle and coldly commanded, “Front-line mecha operators, full assault!”

After hearing Ling Xiao’s orders, the ace operators on the front-lines all put up the weapons in their hands, shouted angrily and pounced towards the Twilight Empire’s mecha army.

A large mecha battle began.

Ling Xiao then ordered for all starships to change directions to move them past the mecha battlefield. All main cannons were ordered to be targeted at Three Stars Lock’s second planet.

At the same time, (Belief]’s 12 wings gathered enough energy once again and pointed themselves towards the second planet that no longer had anything guarding it.

“What? Ling Xiao appeared at Three Stars Lock?” The Twilight Empire’s main military headquarters finally received news from Three Stars Lock. Everyone had a grave look on their faces.

“It’s fine. A Duke is guarding Three Stars Lock. He could definitely keep Ling Xiao at bay,” said General Black Wing, as he put a slight feeling of worry into the back of his mind.

“No matter what, we must not let Allomone fight alone,” suggested another general.

“Since we have confirmed Ling Xiao is there, then we should send him the surprise we have prepared for him.” The general sitting on the main seat, no longer had his mild-mannered demeanor but instead had a coldness in his eyes.

“Yes, lord general!” Everyone stood up and responded in a serious tone.

Afterwards, everyone went to do their own things. In order to take out Ling Xiao, they had to make many arrangements and give out many orders.

Not long after, a starship fleet flew out from within the Twilight Empire and towards Three Stars Lock.

When they arrived at the outer boundary of Three Stars Lock, their eyes were filled with sights of mecha debris floating in the vast space before them.

The starship fleet quickly sent out mechanics to carefully clear the debris that could cause fatal damage to their starships. Caution must be exercised when clearing these debris and rubble because no one knew whether the debris had unstable or possibly explosive energy sources. No one wanted to take the risk of losing their lives.

Before long, they finally managed to arrive at Three Stars Lock. The generals saw that the originally beautiful and bright Three Stars Lock only had one planet that was not completely destroyed. It was the last planet, still burning brightly, illuminating their darkened expressions.

“Damn it!” One general angrily smashed his control deck, “We’re too late.”

“Put everything into searching for Ling Xiao and his damn 23rd Division.” This order was given out by all of the generals. They wanted to immediately find Ling Xiao and his 23rd Division, then kill them to take revenge for the Three Stars Lock.

“I’m sorry, but the thermal readings around this area cannot give us any useful information.” Every staff member of each division reported this information to their generals. The battle at the Three Stars Lock was very recent so there were many energy signals which caused their radars to lose their effectiveness on thermal readings.

“Bastard!” Despite being angry, these Twilight Empire’s generals all knew they could do nothing about it. In the end, they could only give the order to search for survivors. Of course, they also want to get some answers for their doubts from the survivors. Doubts such as: Where Caesar’s Duke had gone off to? Why couldn’t he go with the plan and hold Ling Xiao here until they got here?

This was a question that the Twilight Empire and Caesar weren’t able to figure out the answer to. Even if the Duke was weaker than Ling Xiao, they would definitely not think that he would die by Ling Xiao’s hand. After all, when god-class operators used god-class mechas, they wouldn’t die unless there was an underlying factor that could not be avoided. After all, the god shield system and its short recoverability completely eliminated the possibility of death.
