On the battlefield, Hella released dark red energy and fought with Manudo and the other two. Facing three Calamity Grade Supers at the same time, Hella felt the pressure and clenched her teeth. Relying on the uniqueness of her death Esper Ability, she barely managed to deal with the three of them.
Han Xiao observed for a while and understood Hella's actual combat strength.
"These three enemies are normal Calamity Grade Supers around level 180. Hella's current strength is above average at this level. She still lacks some experience fighting Calamity Grade Supers. However, with her unique ability, dealing with two at the same time is her limit. Three is too much for her."
Han Xiao nodded in his mind. Although Hella was now qualified to participate in the battles at his level, she was still a distance away from becoming the capable assistant that he wanted.
However, with her growth, this gap would be closed very quickly.
While he was thinking, Hella gradually fell into a disadvantage, and the situation became more and more passive.
Han Xiao was not worried about Hella's safety at all. Not only did Hella have the Molding Talent Lock Health, but she also had Aurora by her side. It would be difficult for her to die even if she wanted to.
At the same time, on the battlefield where the fleets of both sides were fighting, a small incident that Han Xiao did not know about happened.
A small Bloodshed Land assault spaceship was fleeing in all directions on the battlefield. It was being chased by dozens of Black Star Corps spaceships.
"Run, they're coming again!"
The shield of the spaceship was continuously hit by the laser cannons, and the interior of the spaceship was shaking non-stop. The red alert was as thick as blood. On the spaceship, Summer Night Flower and the others were sweating profusely and panicking.
They were being chased by a large group of Black Star Corps players. In the middle of the battlefield, Philip sent their coordinates to all the army members.
Many of the participating players saw this and immediately chased after them excitedly. The nightmare of Summer Night Flower and the others arrived. No matter how they changed their positions, they were all displayed on the detectors of the army players.
Originally, it was very normal for players from opposing factions to fight each other. However, the problem was that in this battle, the number of players from the Black Star Corps was more than a hundred times that of Summer Night Flower's side, resulting in a one-sided result. Summer Night Flower and the others were chased by the army players like dogs.
Summer Night Flower was in a terrible mood. He regretted coming to Foothold W-58. If he had known, he would have applied to be transferred to another foothold that would not encounter the Black Star Corps!
The Black Star Corps was full of bad people. They were ruthless, and he was afraid.
As a player of the enemy faction, he decided to avoid the Black Star Corps in the future. Even if he went to a remote stronghold and activated single-player mode, the game experience was much better than being chased around and spawn camped.
Right now, he felt like an innocent woman who had fallen into a wolf's den. He felt extremely humiliated as he was repeatedly raped by the vicious, cunning, and ferocious Black Star Corps players.
While Summer Night Flower and the others were being chased around by the army players, the battle between Hella and Manudo and the other two was reaching its climax.
The few of them kept changing the battlefield, shuttling back and forth between the various areas where the fleets were fighting. Explosions occurred one after another, and there were casualties. Gray souls entered Hella's body one after another to replenish her energy.
"So, this is my current limit." While fighting, various thoughts flashed through Hella's mind.
This was the first time she had engaged in a life and death battle with a Calamity Grade Super. She quickly absorbed the battle experience and had a clear understanding of her own combat strength.
All along, her sparring partners had been experts like Ames and Han Xiao, and she had been completely suppressed. Now that she was fighting with an ordinary Calamity Grade Super, although Hella was at a disadvantage, she felt extremely satisfied. Only by fighting back and forth could she unleash her full strength.
She seemed to be quite strong, but Hella was not satisfied with this.
"It's actually so difficult to deal with three enemies … Han Xiao can fight ten enemies alone. There's still a huge gap between me and him …" Hella clenched her teeth.
She viewed Han Xiao as a goal to catch up to. Now that she felt that it was difficult to deal with three enemies, she had a deeper understanding of Han Xiao's combat strength.
"If it was him, the battle would probably have ended by now."
Hella could feel the difference between the two of them. She clenched her teeth and increased the output of her energy again.
The dark red energy in the sky was like a rainbow. Even the data of the surrounding spaceship detectors showed a rainbow of energy fluctuations.
On the other side, Manudo and the others were also communicating in the communication channel.
"This woman's ability is very strange. It gives me the feeling of a Necromancer, but it's not quite the same."
"Her energy can affect both the physical and mental aspects at the same time. After being hit, there will be a situation where the activity of the cells will be suppressed, weakening the efficiency of the cells to produce energy. This is like … like my vitality is being suppressed."
"Staff Officer Joad, what do you think?" Manudo asked.
Joad, who was watching the battle remotely, nodded slowly and said with a serious tone, "I've already saved the recording of her battle into the database. Although she's very strong, she's not the focus this time. Black Star is your target."
"But if he doesn't do anything, can we retreat?" Manudo asked impatiently. He did not want to stay around Black Star for even a second.
"He's not doing anything. Maybe he's training his subordinates, or maybe there's another reason." Joad said with a deep voice, "Increase your attacks. As long as you cause this woman's life to be in danger, Black Star will definitely do something."
Aren't you just asking us to die?
Manudo complained incessantly.
The few of them fought fiercely for a while longer. Hella finally showed an opening under the suppression of the three parties. Manudo's Launcher teammate saw the opportunity and fired an Annihilation Particle Cannon that was stacked with god knows how many explosive skills, destroying Hella's hasty defense head-on, shattering her armor and sending her flying.
"Ugh!"
Hella grunted and finally stabilized her body that was rolling in space. Her body was covered in black wounds, and half of her left shoulder and half of her neck had disappeared without a trace. If it was an ordinary person, they would have died long ago. Even a Calamity Grade with tenacious vitality would be heavily injured.
Manudo's teammates were about to follow up with another attack, but Manudo was alarmed. He slowed down his flying speed and fell behind.
Hella took a deep breath. Suddenly, a thick platinum light burst out from her eyes. Her wounds wriggled on their own, and her cells rapidly multiplied to repair her body.
The flesh that was missing from her neck and left shoulder grew back in the blink of an eye, and her damaged armor revealed her white and tender skin. Her entire body was filled with energy, almost returning to her peak state.
In the flagship, Aurora's eyes lit up at the same time. After Hella recovered, the light in Aurora's eyes slowly disappeared. She took a few quick breaths as if she had used up a lot of energy.
Hella's and Aurora's Esper Abilities had a special reaction. Through their blood relationship, Aurora had built a life force connection between the two of them. As long as Hella's injuries were too severe, Aurora would transfer her life force and perform remote healing.
As long as Aurora still had energy, Hella would be able to share in her terrifying recovery ability. The effect was similar to Han Xiao's Aurora Character Summon Card.
Hella fought, and Aurora healed. The number of times she healed depended on Aurora's stamina. It was only in terms of endurance that she was slightly weaker than Han Xiao's health and mana. When the two sisters worked together, they were almost invincible.
Joad was stunned, and his expression changed slightly. This scene reminded him of Black Star.
Black Star also had such terrifying recovery ability!
Could it be that this red-haired woman in front of him had a special relationship with Black Star?
Could she be his … daughter?
Originally, Joad did not pay much attention to Hella, but now, he felt that he had to collect more information about her.
Manudo and the other two were also stunned and did not move forward.
Hella felt that she was full of energy. Instead of being happy, she was angry and frustrated.
She had always been trying to prevent Aurora from getting hurt, but now, because of her negligence, Aurora had to consume her life force to heal her. She felt that she had failed in her duty. Although Aurora had an endless supply of life force and could quickly replenish it, because of her experience in the Germinal Organization, Hella was still very wary of this matter.
Just as Hella was about to attack in anger, a large hand suddenly pressed on her shoulder. She turned around and saw that it was Han Xiao.
"Alright, if this continues, it will become a war of attrition. There's no value in training anymore."
Han Xiao's finger lightly tapped on Hella's cheek. Nanoparticles spread out from his fingertips and formed a helmet, replacing Hella's damaged face shield, allowing her to enter the communication channel.
Hella heard this, clenched her teeth, and said, "I understand."
"Leave this to me."
Han Xiao turned around and looked at the three nervous Calamity Grade Supers in the distance.
Manudo was panicking, and Black Star finally made his move.
This time, Han Xiao's eyes moved as he suddenly thought of something.
The enemy knew about his battle record but still tried to provoke him. They were probably trying to force him to make a move. The reason for doing so was definitely not to give him a head out of kindness.
Thinking about the nervous expression on Manudo's face when he provoked him, Han Xiao thought for a moment and realized that this was definitely Joad's idea. This guy had used Sisko's psychic weapon to ambush him two months ago, and he had been going back and forth to the Palace of Hidden Spells. He had not participated in any battles for one and a half months, which made the enemy nervous. Joad wanted to use this opportunity to test his current state.
Thinking about this, Han Xiao had an idea. He did not make a move immediately but connected to Manudo and the others' communication channel. "Are you sure you want to fight me? I don't know if this is your original intention or if someone ordered you to do so, but you have to think carefully. This is going to kill you. "
Manudo swallowed, and the other two did not say anything. Joad did not want to be discovered by Han Xiao, so he only listened.
"I'll give you a chance now. As long as you surrender and announce that you are leaving Bloodshed Land, I won't do anything to you. How about that?" Han Xiao said.
"You want me to betray Bloodshed Land? Dream on! "The Grade A Cannon Master among the three of them shouted angrily and immediately opened fire.
Han Xiao did not move at all. More than three hundred Watcher's Pact floating guards appeared and formed a psionic shield like a blooming lotus, easily blocking the attack.
Han Xiao shook his head and purposely said, "What's so good about Heber? Is there a need for you to be so loyal to him?"
"Only he's worthy of me following him. You think you can be compared to His Excellency Tyrant?"
This Cannon Master sneered. He was a direct member of Bloodshed Land, so his loyalty was basically at the maximum.
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and did not say anything else. He summoned the Mech Legion and attacked fiercely. They swept across the entire battlefield like a wave and destroyed all the fleets.
Facing the mechanical army that covered the sky, Manudo felt suffocated and complained in his heart. He wished that he could drag this out a little longer, so he could only bite the bullet and fight.
Han Xiao activated Apostolization, and dark blue psionic energy flowed all over his body. He personally joined the battle and secretly changed the rhythm of the battle, increasing the attack frequency of all the mechanical soldiers. For this reason, he did not hesitate to reduce the hit rate and purposely showed his impatient fighting style.
If it was an ordinary person, they naturally would not notice this detail. However, he believed that with Bloodshed Land's artificial intelligence analysis ability, they would definitely be able to notice these subtle changes.
Sometimes, using a smart person was easier than using a rash person. As long as he used the details to mislead the other party to the conclusion that he wanted the other party to know, the other party would be easily fooled. If the other party was not careful enough, Han Xiao's disguise would be like throwing flirtatious glances at a blind person.
A smart lie was ninety percent true and one percent false. What Han Xiao wanted was to let Joad guess that he would not be able to casually attack and show his weakness.
As for the reason, it was to take this opportunity to withdraw from the secret war and focus on cultivating leeks. This was the most important thing at the moment. Be it leveling up to Beyond Grade A or suppressing the soul embryo, it would require a huge amount of Experience.
He was not interested in waiting for his sub-personality to be born. Making it unable to form was the best way.
After Han Xiao attacked, the battle became one-sided. Under the three true damage of [Legendary Battle Technique], the Cannon Master was quickly torn apart by the mechanical soldiers, and the head of another teammate of Manudo's was blown off by Han Xiao. Manudo was the only one left alive.
Manudo panicked and hurriedly sent a message. "Wait, I surrender!"
Hearing this, Han Xiao told the Mech Legion to stop. With a wave of his hand, he grabbed Manudo from afar through the mechanical suit's traction force field.
Manudo did not dare resist and allowed the mechanical soldiers to control him.
"You made the right choice." Han Xiao smiled.
Manudo nodded. He had thought it through. Joad clearly did not care about his life or death. He would die sooner or later if he stayed in Bloodshed Land, so he might as well surrender. Furthermore, he had no other choice if he wanted to live.
Escape from Black Star's hands?
I'm not Hardaway. I can't do that!
The high-level combatants of the enemy were all wiped out, and there was no suspense in the following battle. The excited Rexson led his team to destroy Stronghold W-58 and obtained the spoils of war.
After Hella absorbed the remaining gray souls on the battlefield, she locked herself in her room and digested the experience of fighting with a Calamity Grade for the first time.
Joad was in the headquarters, analyzing the video of Han Xiao's attack.
Losing a stronghold was not a big deal to him. What he was concerned about was Han Xiao's current state.
Very soon, he found something strange.
"Two months ago, Black Star never tried to persuade anyone to surrender. He would only kill all of them when he met us. Even if it was only one Calamity Grade, he would not show mercy. Why is he trying to persuade us to surrender now?"
Joad frowned, watched the video a few more times, and found something.
In the past, Black Star's Mech Legion battles were all precisely calculated, giving people a sense of seamless battle tactics. However, today, the Mech Legion's attack frequency had obviously increased. It seemed like in order to increase the speed of their attacks, they did not hesitate to waste energy and gave up on a part of their precise calculations, resulting in many ineffective attacks.
This change made him feel like … impatient?
"First, he tried to persuade them to surrender. Then, he wanted to end the battle quickly …" Joad thought for a while and suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
Black Star's actions were to reduce the battle time, or rather, Black Star did not want to make a move?
These two details made Joad feel that he could vaguely guess Han Xiao's current state.
Sisko's psychic weapon might have caused some kind of continuous damage to Black Star, causing him to fight and worsen the damage. Thus, Black Star was acting out of character.
"My guess should be right!"
Black Star's threat had decreased!
