With the ring destroyed and the volcano erupting, everything returned to normal.

Sauron and his empire were utterly destroyed, and Mordor collapsed, swallowing everything.

At the same time, the inexplicable no-fly zone in this world was also lifted, and Fang Zheng and his companions could finally hit the road again - this finally made the girls breathe a sigh of relief.

"So, here we are."

Standing in front of the Lightning, Fang Zheng nodded to the old king, Gandalf and others in front of him. After the destruction of the Ring, the little girls immediately started the warship and flew directly to Mordor. At first, the soldiers were terrified by the huge monster that fell from the sky, thinking that it was another terrifying creation of Sauron, but fortunately, the prince and others soon stopped the soldiers from further impulse.

"What a shame, we were planning on preparing a grand banquet for you."

Gandalf looked at Fang Zheng and smiled.

"After all, you are the hero who saved the world."

"I just happened to be there and helped out."

Fang Zheng shrugged.

"If you had not chosen to resist, then your life or death would not be something I could control... Look, you made a choice and got the result, it's that simple. Although I really wanted to stay and attend the banquet..."

At this point, Fang Zheng glanced at Aragorn and Faramir with a half-smile. In fact, he was really curious about the handover of power in Gondor. In the original book, Aragorn was elected as the emperor because he turned the tide. But in this world, it was Faramir who defended Minas Tirith, and Aragorn was just a bystander. So who will become the king of Gondor this time? Fang Zheng really wanted to know.

But this is just a small matter after all, they still have to deal with the threat of white frost.

"Just like you have the threat of Sauron to face, we also have our mission, so... sorry, time is running out, we have to go, so everyone... I wish you all the best."

After saying this, Fang Zheng walked back into the Lightning and closed the hatch. Then everyone watched the giant metal bird slowly rise into the air, then suddenly accelerate, rushing into the sky like an arrow, and then disappearing without a trace.

Looking at the sky in the distance, Gandalf chuckled. He raised his staff and bowed in the direction where Fang Zheng and the others were going.

"I wish you all the best, too, Traveler."

At the same time, Fang Zheng and others had left Middle-earth and returned to space again.

"Okay, the trouble here is finally dealt with, we can move on."

Sitting back in his chair, Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, then he looked at Ling.

"Ling? What's the situation with the Lightning?"

"Everything is fine, big brother!"

Ling reached out, tapped a few times on the keyboard, and then gave Fang Zheng a thumbs up.

"Tida and I have already repaired the damaged parts of the battleship and reinforced it. Next time you travel through it, you don't have to worry about falling and getting hurt!"

"It would be even better if I could avoid falling..."

Hearing Ling's answer, Qianhu next to him silently complained, then decisively pulled Yu Li to sit down and fastened her seat belt.

"Very good, then everyone get ready..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng raised his hand again.

"I can sense that we should be able to find traces or remains of White Frost in the next world. If we can collect this thing, then we can accurately locate White Frost!"

Having said that, Fang Zheng clenched his right hand tightly. At the same time, flames erupted again, forming a portal. Then the Lightning suddenly accelerated and rushed into the portal.

"Transmitting!"

The light in front of them became brighter and brighter, and the boundless flames seemed to form a high-speed channel, carrying Fang Zheng and others forward. Gradually, the light of the flames began to weaken, and a dark and boundless space appeared in front of everyone. Then, in the next moment, almost in the blink of an eye, the originally shining stars and the flames disappeared at the same time.

Instead, there was a large group of silver-white flashes! !

“Wa ...

Although they were well prepared, the sudden scene still scared the girls. In front of them, thousands of metal machines were rushing like a tide, crashing directly into the Lightning. They had sharp hulls that looked like a chisel. These fighters were like schools of fish in the sea, or like a swarm of bees, roaring and charging in groups, launching a merciless attack on the Lightning.

"Shield overload activated!"

"The other party is hitting the shield!"

At this moment, Tita and Theo also became nervous. They quickly checked the spaceship and reported the situation.

Qianhu and Yuli sat in their chairs blankly, looking at the army of fighter planes on the screen that was engulfing them like a tide.

"What is this? Is this another war?"

"It looks like we are unlucky and seem to be involved in an interstellar war."

Fang Zheng was very calm about this scene. Just kidding, isn't it just a cluster attack? The Reapers in Mass Effect and the ELS in the Gundam world all used this trick. He was used to it a long time ago.

"Ugh... No matter what it is, don't hit our ship!!"

Ling's face was also puffed up and she looked angry.

"Tio, prepare the graviton bomb!"

"Understood. The three-dimensional bomb is ready."

"emission!"

Following Ling's order, a shock wave spread out in all directions at a 360-degree angle with the Lightning as the center. The metal fighters in it exploded one after another, and in a moment the entire area around the Lightning turned into a sea of ​​fire - but soon, a new group of fighters rushed over again, and continued to fly towards the Lightning without relenting.

"How annoying! Big brother, what should we do now?"

"I'm going to play with them. You guys take this opportunity to distance yourself."

Fang Zheng stood up as he spoke.

"Isn't it easy to deal with this thing? I'll leave it to you, Ling."

"Okay, big brother, leave it to me!"

Although she didn't know what these strange things were, nor did she know what their current situation was, it was not Ling's style to be beaten up right after she came here. After hearing Fang Zheng's order, the little girl immediately rubbed her hands and stared at the screen in front of her.

"Tio, Tida, hit me hard!"

While Ling was happily directing the Lightning to attack these sudden enemies, Fang Zheng also came to the hangar at the back. Then he snapped his fingers, and soon, a bright red VF appeared in the hangar.

"Sure enough, this is more reliable to deal with cluster attacks."

Looking at the VF fighter in front of him, Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. Basically, Fang Zheng has learned his lesson now. When traveling to another world, he will first use technology to deal with the enemy. If technology cannot deal with it, he will use magic. After all, technological power is an external force and will not affect the operation of the rules of the world core itself. But magic is an internal force and is likely to make certain changes to the rules of the world.

For example, this is the case with Middle-earth. This is the biggest reason why Fang Zheng insists on using the power of technology to solve problems. In this way, even if the war is over, the essence of Middle-earth will not change.

But if Fang Zheng had five fireballs and cast forbidden spells at any time, then Sauron might be able to upgrade the entire Middle-earth from a low magic world to a medium magic world - as a member of the Order family and a true god, Fang Zheng has enough ability to influence all of this.

"Well, let's get started. Let me enjoy the Ace Combat!"

Sitting in the cockpit, Fang Zheng rubbed his hands and looked forward. He then pulled the joystick hard, and then saw the fighter plane roaring out and rushing into the group of planes in front of him.

“——!!!!”

Naturally, those metal fighters would not let go of such a conspicuous target. The moment the VF fighter rushed out, hundreds of metal fighters were seen combining like tentacles and chasing directly towards Fang Zheng.

“Well done!”

Fang Zheng was certainly not afraid of these fighter planes. He just shouted and pressed a button. Then he saw the missile bay on the back of the fighter plane opened instantly. Dozens of missiles were shot out of it, dragging a trail of white smoke and flying towards the aircraft group behind. Then a series of explosions instantly engulfed the aircraft group and blew it into pieces.

"Haha, that's all you can do."

Fang Zheng made a turn with his fighter plane, and laughed at the badly damaged aircraft group behind him. Just kidding, although the technological level of the Gundam world is not high, because they were dealing with an enemy like ELS that relied on numbers to win, they also have considerable experience in how to deal with this kind of human wave tactics.

The VF fighter in front of us has been improved, and its lethality is not inferior at all!

Immediately afterwards, a melee broke out.

Hundreds and thousands of metal fighters gathered together and rushed towards Fang Zheng. They didn't seem to have any long-range attack skills. The only way to attack was to gather together and then ram each other through. I have to admit that this trick is quite useful at certain times.

Of course, the premise is that their enemies cannot fly as fast as them and do not have strong killing power.

But unfortunately, Fangzheng is obviously not among them.

The VF fighter was like a red eagle flying through the universe. Behind it, a group of metal fighters bit the enemy's tail tightly. However, no matter how hard they tried, they could not catch the enemy in front. Even if other groups of fighters rushed from all directions, trying to block Fang Zheng's direction, this bright red fighter could still easily avoid their attacks and blow it into a pile of scrap metal with a series of explosions.

At the same time, Lightning also began to counterattack under Ling's command.

"Activate the three-dimensional bomb, clear the surrounding airspace, load the crystal, and switch the shooting mode to strafing!"

Soon, accompanied by a strong gravitational wave impact, the metal fleet surrounding the Lightning was swept away. Then, high-energy beams shot out from both sides of the Lightning, sweeping across the surrounding airspace like long swords, cutting the metal fighters and their combined fleets into pieces in a matter of minutes, turning them into a pile of sashimi.

"Hehehe, what do you think? We are still the best, right?"

Looking at the group of metal machines being repelled in front of her, Ling raised her hands proudly. However, at this moment, Tio suddenly spoke.

"Ling, I received a request for assistance from not far away."

"A request for assistance?"

Hearing this, Ling was stunned for a moment.

"Wait for me to contact big brother."

When Ling was with Fang Zheng, the latter was having a lot of fun operating his fighter plane and playing with the metal machines, flying them around like monkeys.

"Hmm? Ling? What's wrong?"

"Brother, Theo received a distress signal broadcast on all channels, not far from you!"

"Oh? Let me see?"

After hearing Ling's words, Fang Zheng collected his thoughts and glanced around. As expected, he soon found a target surrounded by the same metal aircraft as the Lightning, just below the side of the fighter. However, the other party looked much worse than the Lightning. This spaceship looked like a round plate of a flying saucer, and its white exterior was now riddled with holes. The metal fighters seemed to pierce its body like spikes, and from a distance it looked like it was hit by a hedgehog.

"Wow, this is really tragic..."

Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng couldn't help but whistle.

Speaking of this disc-shaped spaceship...could it be the Millennium Falcon?

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng also opened the communication network, and soon, an anxious voice came out from it.

"Mayday, Mayday, Mayday! This is the USS Enterprise..."
