At the same time, the Bloodshed Land's vanguard army summarized and digested the results of this battle.
"We have repelled the first wave of attacks. All of you have done well and killed quite a number of Calamity Grade Supers. Purple Crystal's allies will definitely be wary."
Joad praised the results of the vanguard army.
Jaeger nodded. "The enemy also attacked hastily and did not send out too many high-level combatants. Your guess is correct."
The vanguard army had many different battle plans. Their original plan was to focus on defense, but when they saw that Section Zero's first wave of attacks did not have an overwhelming lineup, Jorde decided to change their strategy at the last minute. He got the eight Vanguard Officials to attack together and destroy the high-level combatants of Section Zero.
"We have about ten days of buffer time before the enemy launches the next wave of attacks. All of you continue to deal with the high-level combatants. This is the weakness of the allied forces."
Joad was filled with confidence.
Jaeger frowned. "With this example, the enemy's high-level combatants will not underestimate us and might not even fight with us. We might not have such an opportunity like today."
"Then, create an opportunity." Wrothers, who had been silent by the side, slowly said, "If the enemy does not send out any high-level combatants to deal with us, then watch us dismantle their fleet."
Joad nodded. "In any case, try to find an opportunity to kill the enemy's high-level combatants. Kill them until they are afraid, and the difficulty of our expansion will be reduced."
Wrothers suddenly said, "Black Star should continue to participate in the next attack. I have a request. Everyone should report Black Star's location to me at all times. If I am not needed on the main battlefield, I will rush over to get rid of Black Star."
Joad pondered for a moment. "Sure, but the prerequisite is that you do not let your personal grudges affect the battle."
"Humph, I don't need you to teach me that. Furthermore, this is not just a personal grudge." Wrothers coldly said, "Black Star is an officer of the Dragon Emperor. If we get rid of him, we might be able to force the Dragon Emperor out. That way, His Excellency Heber will be able to legitimately intervene in the secret war."
Beyond Grade A existences were a form of deterrence, and they rarely acted. Even though the Tyrant was the leader of the Bloodshed Land, he still did not personally participate in the secret war. However, if Ames acted first, Heber would have a reason.
In their eyes, the Tyrant was obviously stronger than the Dragon Emperor.
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Joad nodded. "That makes sense. I'll leave it to you then."
"Don't worry, no matter where he hides, I will be able to find him."
Wrothers nodded in satisfaction.
…
While the coalition army was waiting for reinforcements, several riots broke out. Led by the Arc Light Organization, the members who participated in the assault requested to change their mission with the reason of heavy losses. They were not willing to participate in the frontal assault anymore.
Sevitt's death shocked the entire Arc Light Organization. The leader of the organization was filled with regret. Sevitt was his right-hand man, and he trusted him greatly. He had allowed him to lead the troops into battle, but he did not expect him to die in the first battle. The leader immediately had thoughts of retreating. The other organizations that participated in the frontal assault also suffered varying degrees of casualties among their high-level combatants.
The intensity of the battle had exceeded their expectations, and the eight Vanguard Officials of the Bloodshed Land had caused them to tremble in fear.
Perhaps they might be able to defeat the Vanguard Officials if they worked together, but no one was willing to lose their Calamity Grade Supers. Thus, they tacitly avoided the battle.
This was an unsolvable contradiction. The remote commander of Section Zero could only adjust the offensive strategy and change the members of the frontline, hoping that the reinforcements would take up the responsibility of the assault.
However, the reinforcements also learned of the casualty count on the frontline and did not wish to participate in the assault. They were not willing to let their high-level combatants follow in their footsteps.
The Amethyst Civilization had no choice but to negotiate privately to make some of the unwilling organizations compromise.
The Bloodshed Land's strategy was extremely effective, and it exposed the flaws of Section Zero. Even though the members were all well-known armed forces in the Colton Star Cluster, when they worked together, they were just a motley crew. They were a perfect example of the saying, "Smiling when the wind blows, but hiding when the wind blows".
However, Han Xiao was not disappointed. Only when the faction was at a disadvantage would they have more opportunities to display their strength.
While almost everyone was rejecting the idea, Han Xiao was the only one who took the initiative to participate in the assault.
This news quickly spread throughout the entire camp, causing a huge commotion. Han Xiao received strange looks from the people around him every day, filled with shock, confusion, and so on.
Despite knowing the risks of the assault, Black Star still insisted on participating. Had he lost his mind?
The comrades of the Arc Light Organization, who had already suffered losses, all looked on coldly. Black Star's actions had caused them to misunderstand. The way they saw it, Black Star wanted to make use of the opportunity to step on them to show his usefulness and gain the attention of Purple Crystal.
This was not a problem in itself, but what made the Arc Light Organization and the other organizations criticize Black Star was that he did not have the strength to back it up. Even their high-level combatants had suffered heavy losses, so how could Black Star not know what he was doing?
Many of the allied organizations came to a consensus. In order to increase his position, Black Star did not care about his life anymore.
However, no one took the initiative to remind Black Star that they needed someone to stand at the front. Since Black Star wanted to die, they would not stop him.
Han Xiao took on such a dangerous mission, and Ralph agreed to almost all of his requests. Han Xiao did not allow his subordinates to participate in the assault but allowed Lagi, Herlous, and the others to participate in a low-intensity battle. Ralph agreed.
After a few days, the second batch of reinforcements finally arrived. Section Zero's army once again attacked Bloodshed Land's first stronghold in the West Wind Star System.
Han Xiao allowed Herlous to temporarily command the fleet while he piloted the Blacklight Stealth and blended in with the frontline troops.
The tactical mission this time required him to pin down eight Vanguard Officials, and the reward was Cutting-Edge Knowledge, as well as a large amount of Experience and Contribution Points. It was equivalent to more than ten normal tactical missions.
Due to their previous failure, Section Zero's second attack attracted the attention of the entire Star Field.
The other five Star Cluster Civilizations in the Shattered Star Ring, as well as some large organizations with high status in the Star Field, all had their eyes on the West Wind Star System. The result of the second battle between the two sides could basically determine the future direction of the secret war.
…
This was the second battle, and both Bloodshed Land and Section Zero were prepared. There was no need for foreplay, and the battle entered its climax right from the start.
Fireworks lit up the dark universe. Burning battleships, exploding bullets, and shining light cannons spread out. The galactic battlefield was filled with danger, and it was like a colorful painting.
The battle at the front was intense, and the eight Vanguard Officials led by Fosters destroyed one battleship after another like a hot knife through butter. It was as if they had entered an uninhabited land.
Originally, the high-level combatants should have been the ones to stop them, but the Calamity Grade Supers of Section Zero chose to avoid the battle and watch the Vanguard Officials destroy the battleships.
"What are you guys standing there for? Stop them!"
The remote commander roared.
"Got it. We'll take action later."
"Now is not the time. Let's wait for them to exhaust some energy first."
The Grade A Supers all gave perfunctory replies.
The remote commander was furious, but at the same time, he felt extremely helpless. He had no way of dealing with these high-level combatants. Even the fleet belonged to these people, and they would rather watch their own fleet get destroyed than take action because Purple Crystal would compensate them after the battle. Thus, the remote commander could not do anything about it.
Ralph could not sit still anymore. He knew that the situation was not good, but he did not expect it to be so bad. He could not help but contact Han Xiao.
"Black Star, the others are unreliable. When are you going to take action? If this drags on, we will definitely lose!"
In the cockpit, Han Xiao looked at the eight Vanguard Officials on the tactical screen and said, "Give me a battlefield."
"Understood!" Ralph was overjoyed.
He was still doubtful about whether Black Star could handle the eight Vanguard Officials, but he could only give it a shot. Now, he could only rely on Black Star.
…
In the center of the battlefield, Wrothers led the seven Vanguard Officials in a killing spree. Like eight shooting stars, they smashed through Section Zero's battleships one after another. Their attacks were like a tsunami, directly disrupting Section Zero's formation.
The eight Vanguard Officials were like leopards, and the battleships were like sheep. Without the high-level combatants restraining each other, the battleships were like prey. Once targeted, there was no possibility of escaping.
"Haha, the enemy's Calamity Grade Supers are still not taking action? Do they really not care about the fleet?"
Malekith laughed maniacally in the communication channel.
"What a bunch of cowards. They don't even have the courage to take action," Jaeger said with disdain.
Dong!
Inside a battleship, Wrothers smashed half of the spaceship with a punch and boarded the assault ship before it exploded. Hearing that, he could not help but ask, "Why hasn't anyone reported Black Star's location yet? Where is he?"
"I don't know. There are no traces of Black Star in any part of the battlefield. However, we did discover the Black Star Corps. However, Black Star is not among them. There's only a Grade A Mage holding the fort."
Wrothers looked at the battlefield and said coldly, "The high-level combatants of the enemy are all a bunch of cowards. There's no need for my help in the main battlefield for now. I'll go look for the Black Star Corps. He's definitely hiding in that part of the battlefield."
"Alright, go ahead. Leave this place to us."
Jaeger nodded and replied.
Wrothers was just about to turn around and leave.
Right at this moment, the surrounding battleships suddenly dispersed and formed a defensive formation, revealing a path. The Blacklight Stealth flew out from the depths of the formation.
"That's … Black Star?"
Wrothers stopped abruptly and stared at the Blacklight Stealth. Even the other seven Vanguard Officials could not help but look over.
Han Xiao, who was wearing the Berserk Ape suit, left the cockpit and floated in space. He faced the eight Vanguard Officials in the distance and made a provocative gesture with his hands.
Although a single person was too insignificant in the huge galactic battlefield, no one could ignore Han Xiao's existence. He released his energy, and the high energy reaction from his body was enough to make any battleship's radar mark him as a danger.
Although they were far away, Fosters and the others were still able to see Han Xiao's actions clearly, and their expressions changed.
"He's provoking us?"
Jaeger was shocked and could not understand who gave Black Star the courage to do so.
Wrothers could not help but feel surprised as well. He had thought that Black Star was hiding like the other Calamity Grade Supers. He did not expect to take the initiative to appear.
"Not bad, at least you're more courageous than the others. You saved me the time to find you."
Wrothers narrowed his eyes and directed the assault spaceship to charge toward Han Xiao. He then jumped out of the spaceship and charged toward Han Xiao like a dark red meteor.
Han Xiao stretched out his arm, and the mechanical components quickly spread out along his arm, turning into a hundred-meter-long mechanical fist. Mechanical Force danced around, and the giant fist smashed toward the meteor.
There was no sound when fighting in a vacuum environment, but the collision between the two made many people subconsciously imagine the sound.
Bang!
The giant fist was instantly penetrated by the meteor, and a human-shaped hole appeared. Wrothers's momentum did not decrease, and his fist landed on Han Xiao's chest.
Han Xiao retreated, and his body trembled. He stabilized himself in midair and threw away the broken mechanical hand.
"Use whatever means you have to make me happy." Wrothers sent a voice message to Han Xiao through the communication system of his armor.
Sending a voice message when fighting … This guy is really a chatterbox!
Han Xiao could not help but curse in his heart. With a wave of his hand, the warehouse of the BlackLight Stealth opened, and all the Mech Legion swarmed out like a swarm of locusts.
Very quickly, the army appeared, and hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers surrounded Han Xiao, attracting the attention of the entire battlefield.
This scale was not to be underestimated!
Because the Amethyst Civilization would compensate for the losses, Han Xiao did not hold back this time and used all his machinery.
"All eight of you can come at me together. You're far from enough to deal with me." Han Xiao returned the favor and sent a message to Wrothers.
Wrothers could not help but laugh and could not be bothered to reply. In his eyes, Black Star was already a dead man, and he alone was more than enough to deal with him.
The Calamity Grade Supers of Section Zero were all watching from the sidelines, and no one had any intention of helping.
