"Burning Legion, launch the Borderlands missiles. After 30 seconds of delay, all forces will begin the attack."
After El Erf issued the attack order, the first to launch the attack were the Burning Legion and the Borderlands. These two battleships came from a world with a higher level of technology and were completely incomparable to the battleships of this world. This was not only the performance and combat capability of the battleship itself, but also everything contained within the battleship.
The missiles fired by the Burning Legion and the Borderlands were of the same model, but whether it was power or speed, they were far superior to the missiles produced by this world. After all, most of the enemies in the Ultra Space-Time Fortress world had reached the true universe level, which was a space war. World 00 had only just stepped into the universe, and the scale of the war was still limited to underground warfare. If it were not for the true black technology of the solar furnace, this world could be said to be not worth mentioning.
The number of missiles fired by the two battleships, especially by the Burning Legion, was extremely terrifying. Just one wave of missiles fired exceeded a thousand missiles. The entire body of the battleship was filled with missile launch ports. Although it was not a lot to say that there were more than a thousand missiles, it was definitely a sight to behold.
The reloading speed and refiring speed of the missiles was even more terrifying. They continued to fire without regard for consumption. Missiles fired from the same launch port would immediately be followed by a second missile not long after the first missile had flown out. It was not a single wave of missiles that flew out, but a rain of missiles in the direction of the ELS.
The Burning Legion only slightly demonstrated its strength, but it made everyone who saw this scene tremble in fear. Now, the Burning Legion could launch such an attack without adding in the ferocious muzzles of the Federation. Some people also thought that if this battleship were to face the entire Federation's battleship, excluding the MS, it would probably end with the Federation's complete defeat in the end.
Every missile fired by the Burning Legion and the Borderlands was a war achievement point for Xiao Ran. Destroying the enemy would also give him a certain amount of war achievement points, but every destroyed ELS only gave him one war achievement point. It was better than nothing, but every missile would definitely destroy more than one enemy. Speaking of which, the gains in such a large-scale battle far exceeded the consumption.
Within 30 seconds, the Burning Legion and the Borderlands had launched countless missiles. When the missiles exploded one after another, countless sparks illuminated the entire final defense line. A total of more than 150 new and old battleships of the Federation's final defense line simultaneously fired all their missiles at the nebula formed by the ELS in the distance. It was only one wave of missile attack, but the entire final defense line was densely packed with red particles. Even the Burning Legion and the Borderlands had stopped firing.
Just the number of missiles fired by the Burning Legion and the Borderlands had already surpassed the total number of missiles fired by all the battleships of the Federation. The first wave of missiles from the two battleships had swallowed countless ELS. The magnificent scene, the gorgeous colors, and the bright light that covered their entire vision made people think that all the ELS would be annihilated by this wave of missiles.
But while imagination was beautiful, reality was cruel. Under the joyful gazes of countless people, Xiao Ran, El Erf, Mary, Jay, Vry, and the other Burning Legion members were frowning. They were sure that the ELS had indeed suffered a lot under this wave of missile attack, but the losses were definitely not as much as they had imagined.
On the screens of all the battleships and MS, in just a few seconds after the countless missiles exploded, countless ELS had filled up the losses caused by the missile explosion at the forefront. Then, the fireballs that passed through the high-explosive missiles continued to fly towards the final defense line without hesitation. Under the two waves of missile attack, the ELS once again collided with the final wave of missiles fired by all the battleships of the final defense line, including the Burning Legion and the Borderlands. Once again, the entire front of the final defense line was filled with dazzling sparks of missiles.
But this time, El Erf only uttered two words, "Attack."
As the two words were transmitted to all the battleships, all the battleships of the final defense line instantly released roaring beams of light. As the specific commander of the final defense line, Katie Manikin, who was sitting in the fortress at the very back, gave out orders loudly. "All MS units, attack! The first, second, and third MS units will face the enemy at the front. The fourth and fifth MS units will attack in the following formations. The sixth and seventh MS units will engage in guerrilla warfare. The eighth and ninth MS units will prevent any ELS that crosses the final defense line from approaching Earth and protect the battleships. The tenth MS unit will provide cover for the first, second, and third MS units."
The entire Federation's MS units had basically appeared in the universe. The first ten numbered MS units had been thrown into the battle. These ten numbered MS units included the MS brigade, MS squadron, and MS unit. Their numbers were definitely not small. Out of the fifteen numbered MS units, five were left as backups. Not all of them were thrown into the battle with the ELS. The absolute number of ELS units had completely exceeded the Federation's side. Logically speaking, in such a situation, there should not be any mercy.
But in the face of unknown enemies and the uncertainty of enemies with special abilities, Katie Manikin still left five units for mobility so that they could be deployed wherever they were needed at any time. In addition, the ELS had not really integrated with the MS units that had combat power and transformed their form. In other words, they were just a group of enemies that did not have any long-range attack ability and could only engage in collision attacks. Under the suppression of great firepower, the number of ELS units she had now was barely enough to support them. In terms of the number of ELS units, it would be useless even if she sent out all her troops.
What she needed to ensure at the moment was to use firepower suppression to prevent the ELS from devouring their own MS units and battleships, and then ensure that no ELS units would break through from Earth behind them. As for actually eliminating such a large number of ELS units, in fact, no one in the entire final line of defense dared to harbor such thoughts. However, they had to block the front line and complete their duty.
When countless MS units appeared in various places according to the arrangement, the entire battlefield was densely covered with countless red beams of light of various sizes. Their numbers piled up like a barrage, preventing the ELS from continuing to approach. The number of ELS units that came into contact with the final line of defense was not all. It was just a small number of vanguard units. Behind these vanguard units, in addition to small ELS units, there were also countless large ELS units. One of these large ELS units could completely devour a battleship, and among the countless ELS units, there was the largest ELS unit. It was the size of the moon, and its size brought heavy pressure to everyone.
Xiao Ran, Cruzet, Law, Bassac, the Skeleton Squad, Nalor, Ryukino, Graham, and all the members of the Burning Legion had all rushed into space when Kati Manikin gave the order to attack. However, these people and the Watcher unit directly led by Xiao Ran were not under Kati Manikin's command.
The newcomers of the Burning Legion were also a little worried when they saw the huge number of ELS units. After all, this was the first large-scale group battle they had encountered in a real sense. A real space war. The gap in experience and technology made them inevitably feel afraid when faced with such a large number of enemies.
Countless ELS units rushed in the direction of the ELS. Xiao Ran and Cruzet even operated their bodies to connect with their tactical armors and rushed to the front of the battle line. As soon as they started attacking, they opened up a sizable gap by forming a barrage of bullets. They led the troops behind them to guard the front of the entire final line of defense.
In such a chaotic battle, time often passed very quickly. No matter how dense and powerful the firepower of the final line of defense was, the ELS still relied on its terrifying number to get close to the ELS line of defense. First, second, and third, the ELS units were no longer in a defensive formation at the front. The entire formation had been completely broken up by the huge number of ELS units. This part of the ELS units, like Xiao Ran and the Watcher unit, had fallen into the encirclement of the ELS and were engaged in a chaotic battle.
As long as it was a battle, there would be sacrifices, not to mention in such a large-scale space war. In less than half an hour, the entire Federation's final line of defense had lost more than 5% of its forces, and this half an hour also included the time it took for the missiles to attack and the ELS to get close to them.
Many ELS units had encountered and merged with the ELS. When the pilots knew that they were going to die, everyone bravely accepted their fate. In order to prevent the ELS from obtaining the data of the ELS units on their side, in order to prevent the ELS from transforming into an ELS unit and bringing more pressure to their comrades, these soldiers bravely pulled down the insurance that allowed their bodies to self-destruct. While the ELS units around them exploded one after another, it also brought about waves of grief in the final line of defense.
An atmosphere of 'do not live or die' shrouded the entire final line of defense. The emotions of being united against the enemy and not fearing death rose in everyone's hearts. They forgot about time and forgot about themselves. They only knew that they had to stop the enemy in front of them and prevent them from getting close to Earth and harming the innocent civilians behind them. They built themselves into a steel line of defense, using their lives to build up the strength of this line of defense. They actually stared at the huge number of ELS units, preventing them from advancing even an inch.
After Xiao Ran was completely surrounded by the ELS units, he could not help but activate his mutant ability. His wanton brainwave also attracted the attention of more ELS units. Countless ELS units rushed towards the Justice Gundam without caring about anything else.
With a large number of ELS units behind them, Cruzet and Graham had unknowingly become the tail raisers of the Justice Gundam. Not only did they have to eliminate the ELS units that threatened them, they also had to cooperate with Xiao Ran from time to time to eliminate the tail behind the Justice Gundam.
Xiao Ran's ability had grown tremendously in his mutant state, but he restrained himself from using all his abilities in battle. He did not have the slightest contact with any ELS units. Communication of thoughts was an active ability of a mutant. A mature mutant was fully capable of using his ability well. What he used and what he did not use was up to him.
Even so, the ELS units caused by the brainwave released by the mutant state could not be helped. In order to prevent himself from being eroded by the ELS units, Xiao Ran adopted a method of completely manual operation of the GN Dragoons instead of using his brainwave to control them. This also allowed his hands to operate at high speed in the cockpit for a long time. From time to time, his operation speed would even leave behind afterimages that could not be seen clearly.
Compared to Xiao Ran, Cruzet was also under a lot of pressure. He completely used his spatial recognition ability to control the GN Dragoons, so the mental pressure on him was not much less than Xiao Ran's. Being able to control the entire GN Dragoons at the same time was already the limit of all the GN Dragoons in this kind of battle. The degree of fatigue naturally came faster than Xiao Ran's.
Seeing more and more ELS units surrounding them and chasing after them, Cruzet also frowned. "We can't go on like this. There are too many ELS units. It's impossible to eliminate all of them. Once the ELS units behind us completely cover us, let alone us, the entire Final Defense Line and even the Earth will be completely devoured in the shortest time possible."
Xiao Ran did not reply immediately. Instead, he asked Harrow to contact the Burning Legion. After El Erf's voice sounded, Xiao Ran directly asked, "How's Cha Na?"
Wearing his headphones, Elfrid picked up his PDA. From the small screen, he saw a struggling face, but the moment he closed his eyes, he said without changing his expression, "In the midst of a great mental fluctuation, we can give him a little stimulation to wake him up. Of course, it is also possible that he will completely faint again."
