The Longbow Model 1 was the most basic Bronze Star Armor with average performance in all aspects. In order to maintain the high mobility of the Star Armor, it sacrificed its defense.
However, the Longbow Model 1 could become the main model of the Bronze Star Armor because of its powerful attack power. As a Bronze Star Armor used for land battles, the Longbow Model 1 was a threat to most Silver Star Armors.
Gao Zhengyang's Longbow Type 1 was able to unleash its attack power to the maximum. He had shot two arrows in a row because he had predicted Ding Hengshan's movements.
Although Ding Hengshan had easily blocked the arrows, his fighting rhythm had been disrupted and he couldn't achieve any of his fighting intentions. This made Ding Hengshan very uncomfortable.
Because of these two arrows, Bai Zhihu had created a small gap in his defense. He had been entangled by the two Silver Star Armors and couldn't breathe.
It was this gap that allowed Bai Zhihu to adjust his mental state and activate the skill of the White Tiger Star Armor: Wind Claw.
The silver star power on the White Tiger Star Armor shone and its speed suddenly increased by three times.
The sudden burst also allowed the White Tiger Star Armor to rush in front of the Shining Flying Scale Armor.
The Star Master controlling the Shining Flying Scale Armor also realized that something was wrong and activated the Lightning Consecutive Slash without hesitation.
The Shining Flying Scale Armor was a close-range Star Armor that was famous for its instantaneous burst. A pair of slender silver swords executed the Lightning Chain Slash, capable of unleashing a hundred slashes in a second.
This was a terrifying attack speed. If the Shining Flying Scale Armor seized the opportunity to burst, any Star Armor would be cut into pieces.
Just as the Shining Flying Scale Armor was about to gather the star power and burst, an arrow landed on the chest of the Star Armor.
The outer armor of the Shining Flying Scale Armor was tough and the sudden arrow couldn't break the armor. However, the shock from the arrow made the Shining Flying Scale Armor's star power slightly sluggish.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of sluggish star power wouldn't have any substantial effect. It wouldn't affect the operation of the Star Armor. However, the mechanism of gathering star power to burst out the star armor skill was extremely complicated.
The slight sluggish star power made the Lightning Consecutive Slash unable to burst out immediately. In terms of time, this delay was about 0.01 seconds.
However, to Bai Zhihu, who had activated his Berserk Skill, this short amount of time was enough for him to close the distance of three meters and use the White Tiger Star Armor's sharp claws.
The beautiful dragon-shaped breastplate on the chest of the Radiant Flying Scales Star Armor was distorted by the sharp claws of the white tiger and exploded into sparks. Although the ferocious and brutal attack didn't immediately break the Radiant Flying Scale Star Armor, the violent impact still greatly affected the Star Master inside.
In his haste, the Star Master did not dodge. He knew that dodging would only make him die faster. He activated the two swords in his hands and stabbed at the back of the White Tiger Star Armor.
The distance between them was too close, and the blade seemed too long. There was no time for him to make any other changes, so the opposing Star God could only attempt to use his sword to pierce through the White Tiger Star Armor's vest.
The hasty burst of strength this time completely destroyed the power of the Consecutive Lightning Slash, and the two swords stabbed into the last piece of armor. Only two sparks were left.
However, Bai Zhihu took the opportunity to use his claws three times and forcefully tore open the cockpit. His five curved sharp claws turned the Silver Star Master inside the cockpit into a pile of meat paste.
This Star Master was a 9-Star Silver Star. In terms of real strength, he was not much weaker than Bai Zhihu. Without Gao Zhengyang's help, Bai Zhihu would have to spend a lot of effort to take down his opponent.
Unfortunately, his opponent only made an extremely small mistake. Then, he completely lost the initiative in the fierce battle and was killed on the spot.
Ding Hengshan rushed over with his spear. The sharp spear was already stabbing at Bai Zhihu's back.
It was not that he was slow, but he was blocked by Gao Zhengyang's arrow. In less than a second, his comrade had been killed.
Ding Hengshan was not angry. A battle between Star Masters was that cruel. Especially when Bai Zhihu was such a ferocious top-notch Silver Star Master, and he was also using the powerful White Tiger Star Armor. One flaw was enough for him to end the battle.
Of course, this was also because his companion was not very familiar with the Radiant Flying Scales Star Armor. At least, it was not like his own Star Armor, which he could control at will.
Due to various reasons, his companion was defeated and killed on the spot.
However, his companion's death was not without value. At least he used up one of Bai Zhihu's most powerful skills.
After this consumption, Bai Zhihu could no longer use the Gale Claw for a short period of time. This was his chance.
As a 10-Star Silver Star Master, Ding Hengshan was also very experienced. Although the Holy Paladin was not very easy to use, it was enough to kill Bai Zhihu.
In fact, the target of this operation was Bai Zhihu.
The higher-ups wanted to capture Bai Zhihu alive. At least, they wanted his head. As for the others, they were not important.
As for why the higher-ups were interested in Bai Zhihu, it had nothing to do with Ding Hengshan. He only cared about carrying out the mission and getting a generous reward.
Since they could not catch Bai Zhihu alive, they could at least get his head back to report. As long as they killed Bai Zhihu, the archer in the distance was nothing.
Ding Hengshan was ready to kill the enemy in one shot, so he activated the Holy Charge. This was the most powerful skill of the Holy Paladin. It was a burst of power that lasted for three seconds. It could temporarily increase the user's Attack Power and Defense Power by four times, increasing the user's Attack Power by four times.
Of course, this kind of increase depended on the combination of Star Power to increase the performance of the Star Armor to the limit.
Therefore, when Ding Hengshan stabbed with his spear, no Silver Star Armor could withstand it.
After Bai Zhihu killed the Flying Scale Star Armor Star Master, he knew the situation was not good. But he had to kill a Star Master first. Otherwise, he would not be able to hold on even with Gao Zhengyang's help.
Now, as long as he dodged the opponent's Holy Charge, he was confident that he could kill the opponent.
Bai Zhihu was old but determined. Facing two strong enemies, he did not want to escape, but to fight back. However, his counterattack was planned and timed.
It wasn't a crazy exchange of blows in the heat of the moment. A stupid Star Master like that would not be able to reach the Silver Level. It was even more impossible for him to be the Chief of Staff.
Bai Zhihu did not look back. He had just finished his mental power burst and was in a bad state. Moreover, the opponent's Holy Charge was not something he could withstand.
The White Tiger Star Armor pounced forward like a ferocious tiger. It extended its limbs and jumped dozens of meters away.
Although Ding Hengshan's spear stabbed the back of the White Tiger Star Armor, he did not use all his strength. The spear only pierced through the armor and did not cause any real damage to Bai Zhihu.
Ding Hengshan was about to pursue, but his feet sank. Another arrow hit the back of his knee.
In the state of Holy Charge, the arrow shot by the Type I Longbow was almost useless. But the kinetic energy of the arrow still affected the Holy Knight's balance.
Ding Hengshan was helpless about this. When he launched Holy Charge, he did not really fly in a straight line. Instead, he moved in a subtle arc.
But the archer in the distance was too accurate and had a good grasp of timing. Every arrow was useful, and every arrow was just right.
Just like the arrow that hit the back of his leg, it did not hurt the Holy Knight at all, but it disrupted the Holy Knight's balance. After all, the Holy Knight was flying in the air, completely relying on the anti-gravity aircraft to propel him.
Even with the protection of Star Power, he would still be affected by the small arrow.
It was this delay that allowed Bai Zhihu to get out of his attack range.
Ding Hengshan could continue to attack, but he could not kill Bai Zhihu in a short time. In fact, Bai Zhihu was not injured. Ding Hengshan was not confident that he could defeat the White Tiger Star Armor in a direct confrontation.
Moreover, there was a terrifying archer behind him.
Therefore, Ding Hengshan made a prompt decision to ignore Bai Zhihu. While the effect of Holy Charge was still in effect, he rode the Star Armor and sped away.
Bai Zhihu, who was leaping in the air, turned around and could only see the back of the Holy Knight in the distance.
Bai Zhihu sighed regretfully. The Holy Knight was too fast, and it was difficult for him to catch up.
The Star Armor of the Holy Knight was extremely good at flying in a straight line. In this aspect, the White Tiger Star Armor was slightly inferior. The White Tiger Star Armor was good at close combat and had strong attacks.
It was possible to catch up with a fleeing Holy Knight in a short distance. But the Holy Knight had already flown 1,000 meters away. It was impossible to catch up.
Bai Zhihu weighed the pros and cons and immediately gave up the idea of chasing. He waved at Gao Zhengyang in the distance, asking him to come over and talk.
From the moment Gao Zhengyang shot the first arrow, Bai Zhihu knew that his disciple had arrived. Among the Iron-armored Star Masters who came this time, including all the Silver Star Masters, only Gao Zhengyang had such terrifying archery skills.
It was all thanks to Gao Zhengyang's godly assistance that they were able to kill an enemy in a dangerous situation. Yes, those erratic and strange arrows seemed to have no effect, but they played a crucial role and completely turned the tide of the battle.
Bai Zhihu also admired Gao Zhengyang's archery skills. He admired his terrifying intuition when it came to fighting. However, that was a Bronze level battle, and it was a virtual battle in virtual reality.
Although he saw Gao Zhengyang's potential, he didn't know how far Gao Zhengyang could go.
After today's battle, Bai Zhihu had a deeper understanding of Gao Zhengyang's archery skills. It was terrifying to see such a person holding a longbow.
Gao Zhengyang flew in front of Bai Zhihu and bowed slightly. "Teacher, are you okay?"
"I won't die."
Bai Zhihu didn't care about the damage on his Star Armor and said, "It's all thanks to you. Otherwise, I would've been killed."
Gao Zhengyang said humbly, "It's mainly because you're amazing. Your White Tiger Star Armor killed the enemy in one shot."
"Let's skip the pleasantries."
Bai Zhihu said, "There should be a lot of casualties this time. Fortunately, the enemy didn't have much of an advantage. When the base self-destructs, the strong electromagnetic signal will immediately notify the Iron Armor Military Academy. They should be able to send someone over soon. "
Gao Zhengyang asked, "Who are they? Why did they attack us?"
"People from the Qin Empire."
Bai Zhihu was silent for a while and said, "Maybe my old friend missed me and sent someone to greet me."
Although Gao Zhengyang was curious, he didn't dare to ask anymore after hearing Bai Zhihu's angry tone. He changed the topic and said, "Tiejun and Qingyun are fine. Tiejun was only slightly injured, but it shouldn't be a big deal. "
"Oh, that's good."
Hearing that his son and Cheng Qingyun were fine, Bai Zhihu's tone was calm but he was secretly relieved.
He could beat and scold Tiejun, but he could also ruthlessly send him to a dangerous place to gain experience. However, he was still his son and was very important to Bai Zhihu.
Bai Zhihu looked at the huge crater in the base and was silent, deep in thought. Gao Zhengyang couldn't say anything else. He could only stand at the side and accompany him.
After waiting for less than an hour, a huge transport plane flew over at high speed. Dozens of Star Masters jumped down from the transport plane.
Bai Zhihu looked up at the descending Star Masters and said to Gao Zhengyang, "Don't speak nonsense."
"I understand." Gao Zhengyang obviously wouldn't speak nonsense. So many people had died, and it was not a small matter. Even with Bai Zhihu's status, he had to give a detailed explanation.
Fortunately, the Iron Armor Military Academy's reinforcements arrived quickly. After the group of Star Masters landed and confirmed Bai Zhihu's identity, they all saluted him.
Bai Zhihu indeed had a lot of prestige in the military. This was not an act.
Bai Zhihu didn't say much and only asked the people from the Iron Armor Military Academy to help clean up the aftermath. At the same time, some people were sent to search the surroundings to make sure there were no enemies hiding.
The Star Masters from the Iron Armor Military Academy were all well-trained. Before the sky turned dark, they found all the survivors.
In this attack, 17 students were killed, and another 32 were seriously injured. Out of the 20 accompanying invigilators, 15 died and three were seriously injured. Only two teachers led the team into an underground river and luckily didn't encounter any attacks.
With such heavy casualties, they naturally couldn't continue the test. Everyone boarded the transport plane and returned to the Iron Armor Military Academy.
After getting off the transport plane, everyone was forcibly quarantined.
Someone had to take responsibility for such a big incident. Moreover, there should be enemy spies in the team. Otherwise, how could the enemy know so much detailed information?
The dead didn't count, but the living naturally had to be strictly examined.
However, Gao Zhengyang and Cheng Qingyun received preferential treatment. They were examined according to the procedure and then made to sign a mandatory confidentiality agreement. After that, they were arranged to stay in a hotel.
The hotel had all the entertainment facilities and was facing the vast desert. The view was unusually wide. The scenery was very beautiful during the sunset and sunrise.
Bai Zhihu had been very busy during this period. He only came once and told Gao Zhengyang and Cheng Qingyun to rest and recuperate. When the time came, everyone would return to the Galloping Horse City together.
This attack made Bai Zhihu's vigilance to the highest level. Before figuring out the situation, he wouldn't rashly take the flying ship home.
After the news was reported, it also attracted the attention of the Alliance.
Although the Qin Empire's spies had always been active, such an open attack was extremely rare. Moreover, this time, there were heavy casualties.
Fortunately, it was the Iron Armor Planet, so the news could be completely sealed. All the survivors signed a strict confidentiality agreement with the military. Whoever dared to leak the information would be severely punished in the military court.
Many of the students had complaints about this. However, those who clamored for freedom and democracy had seen the military's toughness. Well, the discordant voices immediately disappeared.
When it was time to return, everyone was in low spirits.
Gao Zhengyang didn't feel much. Although he was young, his emotions would be affected by the hormones in his body. However, he had seen too many deaths in his memory, and this was nothing.
Most importantly, he wasn't familiar with those who died. It would be nonsense to say that he was sentimental.
It was just that everyone looked so heartbroken that he couldn't appear to be in high spirits. Every day, he stayed in his room, reading books and playing games.
When the flying ship returned to the Galloping Horse City Space Station, everyone relaxed. There were countless elite Star Masters in the Galloping Horse City. Unless the Qin Empire wanted to start a war, they wouldn't have the guts to cause trouble in such a large space city.
When Gao Zhengyang left the flying ship, Bai Zhihu privately told Gao Zhengyang to find him the next day. He also told him not to tell anyone.
Gao Zhengyang understood that this "anyone" included Cheng Qingyun and Bai Tiejun. He vaguely guessed what it was and felt a little excited.
This accident had indeed brought his relationship with Bai Zhihu closer. He had also gained Bai Zhihu's approval. For him, this was a good thing.
Well, at least it saved a lot of time.
When Gao Zhengyang returned to the dormitory and opened the door, Tong Ying jumped out from behind the door and hugged Gao Zhengyang's neck. "Kid, where are you running to?"
After not seeing him for more than 20 days, Tong Ying missed Gao Zhengyang a lot. Knowing that he was coming back, she ran over in advance to wait for him.
Gao Zhengyang was happy to see Tong Ying's innocent smile. The gloomy mood from the Iron Armor Planet was swept away. He hugged Tong Ying and kissed her hard.
Tong Ying was still a little shy, but she cooperated. The two of them kissed and kissed each other until they rolled onto the bed.
After a round of torment, both of them felt refreshed and full of life.
Tong Ying didn't go home for the first time. She stayed with Gao Zhengyang in the dormitory for the night.
It was the first time for a man and a woman to have sex, so the night was naturally filled with endless joy.
The next morning, Gao Zhengyang saw that it was almost time, so he had to get up to keep the appointment.
Tong Ying was in a state of passion and didn't want to be apart from Gao Zhengyang for even a second. She pestered Gao Zhengyang to go with her, but Gao Zhengyang rejected her.
Fortunately, Tong Ying was very sensible and didn't only know how to act cute. Knowing that Gao Zhengyang had business to attend to, she didn't say anything even though she was a little reluctant.
Gao Zhengyang was helpless. After all, Bai Zhihu had told him not to tell Tong Ying.
When he arrived at the backyard of the Bai family's house, Bai Zhihu was making tea and waiting for him.
Bai Zhihu was in a good mood. There was a smile on his dignified round face. "You're here. Sit."
Gao Zhengyang sat down after saluting. He asked curiously, "Teacher, is it over?"
"Yes, it's clear. One of the teachers from Pegasus University is a spy. They are well-prepared this time to deal with me. You guys are just implicated. "
Bai Zhihu sneered in disdain. "I'm already retired, but he's still thinking about it. That's not bad. "
Facing Gao Zhengyang's questioning gaze, Bai Zhihu didn't say much. "It's a grudge from many years ago. You don't have to worry about it. "
Gao Zhengyang couldn't help but say, "Teacher, I'm your student now. It's better for me to care about your enemy."
Bai Zhihu laughed out loud. "Yes, that's true. My enemy is called Qin An. He's the younger brother of the Great Qin Emperor and holds great power. I had dealings with him many years ago. At that time, his brother and wife were both killed by me. Ever since then, we've been enemies. "
Bai Zhihu said it casually, but Gao Zhengyang didn't dare to look down on him. This was a huge grudge. More importantly, the other party held great power and would definitely find a chance to take revenge.
As Bai Zhihu's student, he had to be careful.
Bai Zhihu waved his hand. "Don't worry about him. No matter how powerful he is, he won't be able to reach the Alliance. Even if he wants to take revenge, he will find me first. Don't worry. "
