The massive golden battle sword that Mo Tianyun had unleashed seemed to freeze in front of the Zerg general's enormous form, unable to advance at all.

"What kind of insectoid creature is that? It actually blocked Captain Mo Tianyun's giant golden sword strike without hesitation!!!"

On the 【Bartozhilan Starship】, Talink saw this scene through the reconnaissance screen of the interstellar shuttle and said in disbelief.

"To be able to withstand Young Friend Tianyun's enormous golden lightsaber, which could easily pierce through a Zerg lord, this Zerg must possess such formidable strength, and moreover, this Zerg even takes on a humanoid form. This must be the legendary Zerg General!"

President Gracie wiped away his cold sweat and said with a solemn expression.

"Hoo! A Zerg general? Can Captain Mo Tianyun defeat such a powerful group leader?"

Thorne gasped and asked in confusion.

"The Zerg Insect Generals are an incredibly powerful insectoid race. Their strength is far greater than that of an average legendary-level mech combat pilot... I suspect young friend Tianyun is in some trouble!"

"I'm very worried," said the old president, Gracie.

In the outer space millions of kilometers ahead of the 【Bartozhilan Starship】, Mo Tianyun and the Zerg generals have already engaged in fierce combat.

Mo Tianyun controlled the Life's Afterglow mech, wielding a massive golden lightsaber that combined a starlight sword over a thousand meters long with the mech's battle sword, and fought continuously against the insectoid general.

"The warm-up is over. You inferior flesh and blood of the Oron Empire, we will devour everything! You cannot stop our great Zerg!"

A mental message was transmitted to Mo Tianyun's mind.

"You mere Zerg, you invaded our homeland. It is you despicable beasts who deserve to die who should be judged!"

Mo Tianyun swung his sword again, carrying an incomparably powerful force, and slammed it hard into the Zerg general's Zerg armor.

However, this sword only left a shallow mark on the Zerg general's exoskeleton.

Clearly, the Zerg general's armor was too strong; Mo Tianyun couldn't even break through its defenses.

"I let you strike me with your sword, now it's my turn to strike, this is called reciprocity!"

A mental message from the Zerg general slowly echoed in Mo Tianyun's mind.

"Oh no, we've fallen for their trap!"

Mo Tianyun felt a sense of unease, realizing he had fallen into the other party's trap.

Just then, the massive dark blue crystal in front of the Zerg general's body suddenly lit up, unleashing a powerful black light wave towards Mo Tianyun.

The black light wave was too fast, and its range was also too large. Even with his spiritual power at the perfect level of the "Spirit Sea" and his micro-control level mecha piloting skills, Mo Tianyun was unable to successfully dodge this powerful attack.

Boom!

Thump—!

The energy shield of the Life's Afterglow mech was instantly shattered, revealing the massive mech body. Then, the Life's Afterglow mech was blasted away by the remaining energy of this black light wave, flying a distance of nearly ten thousand meters.

Inside the control room of the interstellar shuttle warship, 【Bartozhilan Starship】.

"team leader!!!"

"Young friend Tianyun!!!"

Thorne, Nick, Talink, Leng Yu, Leng Feng, and the old guild leader Gracie shouted anxiously as they saw Mo Tianyun being hit hard by a black energy wave from a Zerg general.

"Our captain has been hit by that beam of light from the Zerg general. His situation must be extremely critical. We need to think of a solution immediately!"

Talink addressed the crowd.

"But... there's nothing we can do to help..."

Leng Yu said helplessly.

"What should we do? Are we just going to stand by and watch our captain... fight against the powerful Zerg general, and do nothing?"

Talink was getting anxious, so he said something to the crowd in a hurry.

"Alas, we are not strong enough, we are too weak, like ants, how can we interfere in the war between two elephants?"

Leng Yu shook his head and sighed.

In the vast universe, a black beam of light erupted from the massive dark blue crystal of the Zerg general, attacking the Life's Afterglow mech that had just been blasted away.

Mo Tianyun immediately came to his senses, maneuvering the Life Afterglow mecha to quickly dodge the energy beam that was as fast as a stream of light, and in that instant, he restored the energy shield of the Life Afterglow mecha.

However, the Zerg general had already anticipated this step; his intelligence was no less than that of humans! He had calculated that Mo Tianyun would dodge, and he also predicted Mo Tianyun's flight trajectory, launching two beams of energy in succession.

Mo Tianyun dodged one attack, but unfortunately he couldn't dodge the second.

The Life's Afterglow mech was blasted away again, and by this time, the Life's Afterglow mech itself was severely damaged.

It can be said that Mo Tianyun is now in dire straits.

"team leader!!!"

On the 【Bartozhilan Starship】, the entire Tianyun Squad shouted with great concern.

Peng!

Talink angrily slammed his fist into the high-strength alloy metal wall of the [Bartozhilan Starship], producing a loud bang.

"We are warriors of the Empire too! Is there nothing we can do? How can I be so weak and incompetent? How can I do nothing?!?"

Talink's pent-up resentment finally erupted. Ever since his father lost his life in the defense battlefield of Uluru Star Planet, his mental state had been poor. Now, he could only watch helplessly as his captain was beaten to a pulp by the Zerg general...

Once again, Talink felt helpless, powerless, and incompetent, and all the grief and anger in his heart erupted.

Because Talink is also a proud person, Mo Tianyun saved his life during the mission to clear the Zerg hive on the planet Lunlboa, and Mo Tianyun also gave him some pointers on swordsmanship, which helped him improve his martial arts skills.

This was clearly a great favor done to Talink, which the proud man always remembered and wanted to repay his captain. Now, Mo Tianyun was forced into a desperate situation by the Zerg general, but he was powerless to help, which made Talink feel extremely ashamed and pained.

"Die! You lowly flesh and blood! This move is enough to take your life."

The Zerg general slowly gathered endless energy into the massive, dark blue crystal, forming a terrifying, dark red energy ball, which then shot towards Mo Tianyun.

After leaving the dark blue crystal, the dark red energy ball suddenly grew larger and silently enveloped Mo Tianyun.

The light cluster made the already dark universe even darker, as if even light could not escape the range of this energy cluster.

This plunged everyone on the Bartozhilan starship into despair...
