But no matter how fast it was, the knight vanished almost impossibly the instant the beam of light was fired.
It does not cancel out the wavelengths of visible light.
It was moving too fast and completely out of sight.
Breaking the sound barrier is just the beginning for Imperial mechs; their maximum speed can reach over 30,000 kilometers per hour, nearly 30 times the speed of sound.
Before the value game began, the fastest fighter jet on Earth was only Mach 3, three times the speed of sound.
However, it is impossible for the pilot to fight at such a speed, and the Sky Fragment, even with the appointment of the Sky Royal Family, will not respond to any intelligent system; it must be piloted manually or via neural connection.

Red alerts kept popping up in the cockpit of {Red Lotus}.
"What's going on?!" Patino's face darkened with confusion.
"Patino!" A deafening roar, loud enough to shake eardrums, came through the internal communicator.
Patino subconsciously looked up, and the optical display moved upwards accordingly. Right in front of {Red Lotus}'s face was {Knight}'s mecha with its golden eyes shining.
when?
Patino didn't even have time to say the words aloud; he only had time to subconsciously think about them in his mind.
The next moment, the monitor went completely dark, and the familiar sounds and sensations of the mecha ceasing operation slowly came through.
The cockpit turned pitch black, engulfing Patino like a tidal wave.
With the "corpse" of {Red Lotus} in his left hand and the celestial fragment of {Red Lotus} in his right, Li Changzhou flew back to the Imperial Capital Square with a loud bang, leaving behind ripples of sound.
winter!
The corpse of {Red Lotus} was thrown in the place where {Knight} had initially set up, a shock to everyone's hearts.
The armor was torn open, the machine was ripped apart, sparks flew from the wounds, and the fragments of the sky disappeared.
The Imperial Square, packed with people, silently gazed at the wreckage of the machine.
They weren't angry, just bewildered.
Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could the Imperial Mechs possibly lose?! How could someone have taken the Sky Fragment in a single blow?!
The eyes of the two Imperial mechs, {Judgment} and {Moonlight}, lit up simultaneously, indicating they were on high alert.
It can unleash the mech's top speed in an instant, perform precise attacks at top speed, and stop instantly from top speed...
The Imperial mechs can withstand these things, and their power can support them, but neither the pilots inside nor their mental fortitude can.
Humans, both physically and mentally, are far too fragile compared to mechs, which possess hard armor but lack thought.
Compared to millions of people, the nearly sixty-meter-tall {knight} was insignificant, but at this moment, everyone was awestruck by it.
The next second, Margaret III reacted and gave the order:
"shooting!"
The Empire's drones, airships, garrisoned artillery, mechs, and soldiers, including three Imperial mechs, simultaneously opened fire on the {Knight} in the air.
Smoke grenades, flashbangs, incendiary grenades, stun grenades, high-velocity armor-piercing rounds...
Positron cannon, particle cannon, ion cannon, plasma cannon...
Pulsed lasers, pulsed particle cannons, sonic pulse resonant cannons...
Artillery fire, lasers, and charged weapons filled the sky; artillery shells alone truly rained down upon the land.
but.
Li Changzhou's spirit combined with the high performance of {Knight} made the incoming rain of light seem like paper airplanes slowly flying by.
boom!
With the {Knight} as the intersection, artillery fire and charged weapons collided, triggering terrifying streams of light and explosions, with violent shockwaves sweeping outwards in concentric circles.
The air seemed to collapse, and an astonishing impact swept over everyone in the square.
Gusts of strong wind slapped them like hands.
Those standing directly below the {Knight} were even unable to stand steadily due to the shockwave.
"Was it successful?"
Objective: Survival
"Still alive!"
"Where did they go?!"

"Up there!"
Boom! All the mechs took off, trailing streaks of light in various colors.
[Side Quest Triggered: Unrivaled]
[Mission Objective: Crush the Empire! The more unparalleled you are, the richer the rewards!]
[Note: As the pilot of {Knight}, you are undoubtedly unmatched. Now, tell the world just how strong you are, having embarked on the path of evolution and become a 'rule-breaking player'! (P.S.: The mission is way too easy, so don't expect great rewards.)]
Enemy aircraft detected: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8, B9, B10, B11, B12, B13, B14, B15, B16, B17, B18, B19, B20, B21, B22, B23, B24...
Enemy planes finally:
Li Changzhou glanced at the numbers on the detector.
The power furnace was running at full speed, turning into a ball of light.
{Knight} crashed in mid-air, headfirst, the machine spinning as it began its dive.
The wind and impact grew stronger, and the black machine transformed into a stream of black light. Within the black light, the golden eyes and silver energy bar drew out two thin bands of light, one gold and one silver.
Trailing a beam of light that was black with hints of gold and silver, the {knight} swirled in the air like a galaxy.
It sprints at full speed, with the speed of a shooting star, the power of a meteorite, and the spin of a spiral.
Raise your fist when close, unleash a power as vast as the sky, and strike with a spiraling force.
