Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr "Qing Mu, inform the special-class ace battle team to kill their ace operators with all their might!" Since sneak attacks were no longer effective, they might as well shoot down some of their ace operators to weaken their combat strength. The general ordered decisively.
"Hai!" Receiving the general's order, the initial arrogance on Qing Mu's face vanished instantly, and he stood at attention and bowed respectfully. Then, he turned to relay this order to the mecha operators currently engaged in direct combat with the opponent's ace operators.
Meanwhile, at this time, the first batch of Soaring Dragon ace mecha that had ejected had already clashed with the opponent, and the cruel slaughter thus began.
While the command centres of both sides were patiently waiting for the progress of the battle between the ace operators, in the heart of the battle, an invisible energy was forming.
On the Federation's command ship, a soldier monitoring the battlefield suddenly cried out in surprise.
The soldier beside him jumped in fright, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Take a look, what's that?" The soldier zoomed in on the strange phenomenon he had discovered, and saw that at the centre of the battle, a black dot had abruptly appeared there.
The soldier had a nagging feeling that the black dot was somewhat strange and frightening. He immediately zoomed in on the black dot to its maximum size, and the image finally showed clearly that at the centre of the black dot, there seemed to be some air currents flowing in reverse. Even stranger was that the black dot was rapidly expanding.
"Could this be... a black hole?!" This chilling phenomenon of air currents flowing in reverse gave him a flash of inspiration, and he blurted out in surprise.
"What's going on?" The senior captain in charge of the monitoring room heard the commotion and quickly rushed over.
"Sir, it's a black hole. A black hole has appeared at the centre of the battle. Tell them to retreat quickly." The soldier's face was pale with fright. A black hole was the terminator of all things. Once swallowed by a black hole, no one could escape. Thus, the moment a black hole was discovered, even the two sides engaged in battle would choose to stop fighting and escape together.
The captain could also clearly see the black dot the soldier had zoomed in on. In this short period of time, what had initially been a finger-sized black dot had expanded to a circular hole about 20 to 30 centimetres in diameter. The black hole was expanding at an incredible speed. It could be foreseen that within a short period of time, it would become a super giant hole capable of swallowing everything. At that time, no one here would be able to escape this calamity.
The captain knew the situation was urgent. He quickly rushed to his A.I. and activated the A.I.'s emergency wartime procedures! Of course, this kind of procedure could not be done recklessly. Once it was discovered that he had misused his authority, he would definitely be sent to the military court for punishment.
"Emergency wartime procedures successfully activated, please select the required items!" The A.I. asked coldly.
"Open the military channel. I want to make a military announcement!" The captain's forehead and the tip of his nose were dripping with sweat. The black hole was too scary. He was afraid that it would be too late.
"Connecting to the military channel, success!" When the A.I. said this, the captain pressed the call button for a military announcement. "Emergency announcement to all troops, a black hole is forming in the center of the battle! All mecha operators, retreat immediately! All mecha operators, retreat immediately! "
"Once again, this is an emergency announcement. A black hole has formed in the center of the battle! All mecha operators, retreat immediately! All mecha operators, retreat immediately! "
This abrupt military announcement sent the Federation warriors into an uproar. At this time, the command centre had already received the image of the black hole from the surveillance room. Without even thinking, the supreme commander immediately ordered all the starships carrying mecha to send out the retreat signal.
Meanwhile, at this time, the black hole in the center of the battle had already expanded to a diameter of 3 to 4 metres. The force of the swallowing air current was already very obvious. In particular, the ace operators near the black hole were so nervous that they stopped fighting, staring fearfully at the black hole that was growing larger and larger, its swallowing air current becoming more and more intense.
Everyone knew what a black hole represented. It was the source of disaster, death, and destruction.
"It's a black hole! Retreat quickly!" Such an obvious black hole made the Twilight Empire mecha operators retreat quickly without waiting for their own starships to send out the retreat signal.
At this time, all the mecha operators of the two nations no longer had any desire to continue fighting. All the mecha quickly rushed back to their own starships, afraid that if they were too slow, they would be swallowed by the black hole.
However, they were still too slow. The black hole that had already expanded to a diameter of more than 10 metres suddenly exploded. Then, as if opened by some force, the black hole instantly became a giant black hole with a diameter of more than 100 metres. This caused the innermost layer of mecha to be sucked in by the suction force of the black hole.
"Godd * mmit! Full power! Engines at 120% power!" The innermost layer of mecha could already feel the suction force growing stronger and stronger behind them. Some of the mecha operators reacted quickly and decisively, pushing their engines to their maximum power to try and escape the suction force. However, an engine at 120% power could not be maintained for long. If it was maintained for too long, it would cause permanent damage to the main engine. Generally, mecha operators who loved their mecha would not bear to do so.
This group of mecha operators who reacted quickly could still be considered lucky. Although they had paid the price of having their engines destroyed, they still managed to charge out of the suction radius of the black hole and survive. However, even more mecha operators had completely lost their lives due to their slow reactions. They were directly swallowed up by the suction force, and by the time they wanted to push their engines to their maximum power, it was already too late.
Under the terrifying force of nature, even the ace operators who were strong enough to dominate the battlefield were like toddlers, unable to fight back.
Although most of the ace operators who reacted quickly managed to escape the suction radius of the black hole, because the black hole had appeared right in the middle of the ace operator battlefield, there were still quite a few ace operators who were mercilessly sucked in.
Faced with this situation, the mecha operators of the two nations could only watch helplessly as those mecha were sucked into the black hole. There were even quite a few mecha operators who had lost control of themselves before they were sucked into the black hole, exploding into countless fragments...
"8217, hang in there!" One of the ace mecha formations of the Federation was also facing a similar crisis. The mainframe 8207 had reacted quickly, almost escaping from the centre of the suction force. As long as his mecha did not have any problems, escaping with his life would not be a problem.
However, his wingman 8217, who was 10 metres behind him, was not as lucky as 8207. His position was still within the suction radius of the black hole, and most importantly, one of his mecha's two secondary engines had exploded due to overload. This caused his speed to slow down, and it was because of this delay that he was in danger.
The suction force of the black hole had successfully caught hold of him. Due to this powerful suction force, 8217's mecha actually began to slowly retreat. This meant that his mecha's engines no longer had the power to resist this powerful suction force.
As 8217's mainframe, the leader of the formation saw that his wingman 8217 was in great danger. Without even thinking, he immediately operated his mecha to grab the other's right arm.
"Leader!" Seeing that his leader had actually disregarded his own safety to save him at this most dangerous moment, 8217's eyes turned red. He desperately ordered his A.I. to increase the output of his engines, hoping to borrow his leader's dragging force to escape this calamity.
This stalemate lasted for 30 seconds. When he saw his mecha's other secondary engine explode due to overload, he knew that there was no hope for him.
"Don't give up!" Even though he knew that his chances of escaping together were not high, 8207 still did not choose to let go.
"Leader, let go of me!" 8217 gritted his teeth and said. He could not drag his leader down with him.
"No, 8227 has already sacrificed himself. I cannot watch my last brother die!" 8207 rejected him outright.
Even at this point of no return, 8207 still refused to let go. He just kept saying, 'don't give up!' 8217's tears flowed. "Leader, let go of me … do you want to die together with me?"
"My brothers are all dead. What's the point of me living? We once said that if we died together on the battlefield one day, we would be brothers in the next life. Now that 8227 has sacrificed himself, with the two of us, even if we go to the netherworld, the three of us brothers can still be together, "said 8207 with a smile. To be able to die together with his brothers was also a kind of happiness.
"Leader!" Although 8217's eyes were streaming with tears, he smiled. "Thank you for taking care of me all these years. Being your number one wingman is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me." That said, he reached out with his left hand to draw the beam saber from his back. Then, amidst 8207's surprised cry, he decisively slashed at his own right arm …
"Swoosh!" The mecha's right arm fell off. Due to the sudden loss of weight in 8207's hand, the overloaded engines had flung him out of the range of the black hole's suction force.
“8217！” 8207's tiger-like eyes were filled with tears as he screamed at the top of his lungs. His last brother had sacrificed himself in such a violent manner to save him …
8207 felt a sharp pain in his chest. Without even thinking, he threw himself towards the black hole, but 8102's team had already arrived and held him back. "207, calm down!"
"That's my brother!" 8207 finally began to cry.
"That's also my brother!" 8102 said sternly. "Remember this, your life is no longer yours alone. Similarly, it's also 8217's."
These words made 8207's entire body shudder. The mecha that had initially wanted to struggle was instantly silenced.
Right then, 8102's wingman 8122 suddenly cried out in surprise, "Leader, quick, look! Something is flying out from the centre of the black hole …"
8102 looked over decisively. Indeed, at the centre of the black hole, something was slowly moving away from the suction force. Although its speed was extremely slow, it was indeed gradually leaving the centre of the black hole. "How is this possible?"
Everyone knew that the suction force at the centre of the black hole was absolutely terrifying. There was absolutely no power that could resist it. What exactly was it that could resist this suction force and slowly break free from it?
8102 zoomed in on the image. Sure enough, there was a mysterious mecha moving with great difficulty at the centre of the black hole, trying to break free from the powerful suction force of the black hole. The body of that mysterious mecha was already riddled with scars, even somewhat broken. However, an unprecedented miracle had occurred on the body of this broken and mysterious mecha.
