On the orbit of the No. 4 planet, a torrent where magma was gathered appeared. It was the result of thousands of starships wrecking their power units at the same time. Based on the overload, they were squeezed out 120% of their speed and charged at the enemy's formation like an overwhelming tide.
Right in front of the surging tide, a red comet, mixed with the destructive aura, was marching forward nonstop. Not only was it far ahead of all the other starships of the Union Army, it was even marching into the battle formation of the Turnaround Fleet that was shivering in fear ahead of Bai Xingjian's "Coalition Fleet of Pyromaniacs".
On closer inspection, the so-called red comet seemed to be a drop of water condensed by fire. Thanks to dozens of thrusters that were also in the shape of water droplets, it was pushing forward unstoppably at 1% of the speed of light.
It was not until all the fuel was burnt up and the speed reached the highest that the shell of the red water droplet suddenly collapsed into countless swirls of brilliance that splashed everywhere. A furiously burning dragon, however, rushed out of the broken water droplet and soared to the sky, revealing its real body in the sea of stars. It was exactly "Draconic Phoenix", the Colossus that Li Yao had once used to "slay a god" and was now under the control of Ding Ling Dong!
After a hundred years of wind and frost, the Colossus was not worn or corroded at all. Instead, because of the most cutting-edge technology of the entire Federation and the modification of the advanced components, it was even more intimidating than before.
The biggest difference from when Li Yao used it was that Ding Ling Dong was a "body fundamentalist" who strongly advocated fighting and disdained to use sabers, swords, or guns. She had devoted all her efforts to the arms of Draconic Phoenix and modified the arms of the Colossus to twice the size, making it look like an infuriated gorilla. Dense attack rune arrays had been carved on the iron arms that were as thick as the main guns of a starship. Even though they were not activated, countless burning dragons seemed to be entangling them.
Ding Ling Dong took a deep breath and stared at the starry, slightly disordered brilliance not far away.
It was the spiritual shield and the working medium power units of the Return Fleet that were making hasty reactions.
Now, there was no power among the stars that could stop her from crushing the heads of these bastards.
Ding Ling Dong was immersed in a very subtle feeling, as if she had heard a battle song from the depths of her body in a silent vacuum.
She heard the sound of blood flowing through her veins like a flood, the sound of bioelectricity flowing through her neural network, the sound of her internal organs being hungry, the sound of her infinite fighting will boiling deep inside her head, and the sound of the berserk nature that had been dormant for a long time gradually waking up in the deepest part of her cells!
Perhaps it was because she had been the Speaker of the Federation for so many years by accident, and she had been sitting in parliament and her office all day long. Her fighting will had been suppressed to the minimum, like a dam full of cracks that was about to collapse.
Perhaps it was because she missed Li Yao more than anything else. The news that Li Yao's life was uncertain made every muscle and every bone in her body more anxious than ever. She was in a hurry to vent her anger on a few unlucky guys.
Or maybe, Gui Suishou was right. For a Cultivator, or for any proud human warrior, nothing was more important than clarifying their belief. Only by resonating with their belief on the deepest level could they detonate the power of the origin of their life and surpass the f * cking level, the f * cking rules, and the f * cking Core Formation Stage. The difference between the Nascent Soul Stage and the Divinity Transformation Stage was boring!
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
Ding Ling Dong's eyes were completely occupied by fire. Her honey-colored skin was full of glittering cracks that looked like dragons of fire, too, as if a brand-new, burning, glittering self inside her body was about to break out of the shell. Unprecedented strength flooded out of her every cell, every nerve, every vein, every drop of blood, and every pore like a flood that had just broken a dam. It was transmitted to every joint and every plate of plate on the Colossus through the spiritual residence and had the most perfect reaction with the battle runes left from the primeval era hundreds of thousands of years ago. Unbelievable waves were triggered, as if a red comet was a hundred times brighter than before, turning into the most dazzling center on the entire battlefield!
Ding Ling Dong roared, laughed, and burst into flames. The arms that looked like the main cannons of the starship collided brutally like two shooting stars that were moving toward each other. The invisible waves spread out to a million kilometers nearby at the speed of light. On all the starships on both sides of the enemy's side, her deafening roar was also spread out by the waves.
"Ding Ling Dong, Speaker of the Xing Yao Federation, is here. Who will fight me to the death?"
For a moment, the entire sea of stars was eclipsed. All the starships fell silent, as if they had been frozen in the vacuum by her roar.
Half a second later, the soldiers and Cultivators of the Federation who were back to themselves from their shock all burst out the most enthusiastic cheers and the most furious roars, responding to their leader with their soul and their life.
Whether or not Ding Ling Dong's aggressive attack was reckless or not … she was a Cultivator!
Encouraged by Ding Ling Dong, the thousands of warships of the Federation that had been accelerated to the highest speed seemed to have been injected with the most powerful stimulants. Their speed was increased by 5% at the same time. They were not just galloping but almost like a bunch of rabid dogs that were tied to crystal bombs and craved to die together with the enemy.
More 'comets', or high-speed cabins that carried the Colossi, flashed behind Ding Ling Dong, too. Thousands of pieces spluttered, and the magnificent Colossi tore apart the vacuum and glittered as much as they could.
"Cultivator Peng Hai is here. Who will fight me to the death?"
"Qi-Trainer Wu Mayan is here. Who dares to come forward and be killed?"
"Fire Ant of the demon race is here. I beg the heroes of the sea of stars to have a fair battle with me!"
Their roars were also spread to the entire sea of stars through the dozens of most commonly used communication frequencies.
The most barbaric charge of the 'barbarian army' began.
…
Compared to the unstoppable Union Army, there was nothing but dead silence in the Return Fleet. All the nobles and Immortal Cultivators were at a loss. They found it hard to believe the roars in the public communication channel.
"Ding Ling Dong, Speaker of the Xing Yao Federation, is here. Who will fight me to the death?"
Are you kidding me? How was it possible? The so-called Speaker of the Federation should be a leader of the military state on the same level as the four Kurfürsten and even the emperor, right? How could such a leader of paramount importance lead the charge in the vanguard of the entire fleet like a valiant but foolish general?
It was too stupid, too absurd, and too … unreasonable!
There must be a scheme. There must be a trap. It — it was not real. It could not be!
The four Kurfürst families did not know much intelligence about the Xing Yao Federation. They had only collected the incomplete information. There was only one thing they knew about "Ding Ling Dong, Speaker of the Federation". It was said that she was the only person in the entire universe who could make "Black Wind King Li Yao" beg for mercy.
A lot of nobles were rather suspicious at the beginning. Everybody in the Imperium knew the toughness and brutality of "Black Wind King Li Yao". Even Blackstar the Great had been blown up by him. How could there be anyone in a remote village at the edge of the cosmos who could make him beg for mercy?
They had thought that it was just a frog at the bottom of a well at the edge of the cosmos who was bragging and talking nonsense.
It was not until they met her today that they realized —
"Where is this crazy woman from exactly? She is bold enough to attack our battle formation with only one Colossus? Does she not know that if we hold our ground, thousands of cannons will definitely blow her into smithereens before her main troops arrive?"
"Is she really the Speaker of the Federation? How can she be so brutal? That's — That's just a joke. It doesn't make any sense at all!"
"So many Colossi and such intense flames of spiritual energy. Are those guys really from the remote villages at the edge of the cosmos? How can they have so many Colossi? They're almost as many as we are! "
"Those — Those — Those rabid dogs, those barbarians, and those Cultivators who are not scared of death at all. What are they thinking exactly? What can they gain by fighting with us? The reformists will be taking all the advantages!"
On the Return Fleet, all the nobles and Immortal Cultivators were scratching their hair and roaring hysterically, finding it hard to believe their eyes and ears for a long time. They did not know how they should face the bunch of lunatics who had arrived out of nowhere.
Of course, it was not because nobody had noticed the weakness of the expedition army of the Federation.
It was true that a lot of people had pointed out that the crazy woman who claimed to be the Speaker of the Federation, Ding Ling Dong, was not beyond the level of the Divinity Transformation Stage, and the Colossus that she was using was not the real ultimate product. Theoretically speaking, she was not invincible.
The enormous fleet that was sweeping close, on the other hand, was large in number, but after they charged at a high speed, their battle formation was scattered. It was obvious that their cooperation was not very good, and their combat performance was uneven. Their average combat ability was not very high, and they looked like a ragtag bunch of mobsters.
In other words, as long as the Sky Returning Fleet was united, and a certain elite branch fleet was fearless and self-sacrificing enough to form a cone-shaped battle formation and attack the enemy head-on, it was very possible that they could pierce through the enemy's battle formation and even tear the enemy apart without bothering about the head and the tail!
It was 100% correct.
The only problem was how to make the Sky Returning Fleet "united", and whose branch fleet should be the "fearless sacrifice" and face the crazy woman who was lunging at them in a cone-shaped battle formation as the "fearless sacrifice"?
"You are truly wise, brother. Although the enemy is strong, they are just a bunch of mobsters. As long as we charge head-on, the barbarians at the edge of the cosmos will definitely be crushed! Then, since it is your suggestion, brother, your warships will be the vanguard and take the greatest credit! You will lead the charge, brother. I guarantee that I will follow you and cover you with the most powerful firepower! "
