When that day finally came, the azure sky turned black. It wasn't a natural change in the weather, but rather because Alliance warships and the like were hovering over the Federation.
"It's going to be war again." The residents of the Federation hid in their homes, looking at the dark sky outside and sighing. However, they were not particularly panicked. After all, this was not the first time a war had broken out, and each time it had not been a crushing victory, but rather a fierce and evenly matched battle. They didn't know why.
Anyway, it's nothing new. Besides, the Federation's news has been promoting the fact that the Federation's invincible general will be involved in this battle, which has given many people a strong sense of reassurance!
"It's really frustrating." Wendy looked up at the warship that almost covered the entire sky of the Federation, then looked at the soldiers behind her. The soldiers, standing ready for battle, seemed to have long been prepared to die. Wendy's heart was suddenly filled with sorrow. "Don't put too much pressure on yourself." Xiao patted Wendy on the back.
Wendy nodded, and a lyre appeared in her hand. Facing all the soldiers, she called out, "Gentlemen!" All the soldiers looked at her. Wendy glanced around and continued, "I have nothing to give you, but I would like to ask you to listen to a song!" The Song of the Heavens began to play. Unlike her usual somber tone, this time the Song of the Heavens created an atmosphere of fearless defiance, instilling an intangible sense of mission in all the listeners.
"For the Federation, every man in my family died on the battlefield. Now, it's my turn!"
"For the Federation, we will never back down!"
"For the Federation, we will never back down!"
"For the Federation, we will never back down!"
The deafening slogans rang out in the not-so-large venue, yet Wendy's High Heavens Poem did not cease. On the land of the Federation, at least on this planet, the wind carried the High Heavens Poem to every corner.
Every citizen of the Union can hear this, and every citizen of the Union feels a sense of mission.
"Even if I fail, I am still a citizen of the Federation!"
"Even if we fail, I will fight those dogs of the Alliance to the very last moment!"
"I was born a citizen of the Federation, and I will die a soul of the Federation!"
Such comments spread like wildfire on the Federation's StarNet. People didn't know who was playing the poetry, but music can evoke emotions, and emotions can resonate.
After the High Heavens Poem finished playing, Wendy turned to Xiao and said, "Let's go." "Okay." With his Elemental Sight active, Xiao saw that the soldiers were all imbued with the wind element; the invisible wind energy protected them from fatal damage, but only once.
Wendy didn't want them to get hurt either...
Once aboard the mech and setting off from the base, even before reaching the atmosphere, we could already clearly see what the other mechs looked like...
Mechs and fleets—things that only exist in science fiction novels—were now fully displayed before everyone. Only by holding your breath and looking up could you catch a glimpse of their entirety.
It's unclear who struck first, but a massive war ensued.
In the chaos, Wendy struggled to control his mech. The mech was now imbued with wind element, making it twice as fast as before. Not to mention Xiao, who was already moving so fast that he was practically a blur. Almost every time he passed by an enemy mech, the enemy mech would be instantly killed with a single slash. It was incredibly fast.
"My lord, our mechs seem to be no match for them." Inside the Alliance flagship, the young woman in a high position sat with her legs crossed, silently watching the screen in front of her. The screen showed only two mechs, Xiao and Wendy's. "Their one, the invincible general? Interesting, very interesting." The young woman chuckled softly at first, then suddenly burst into wild laughter.
"It's been a long time since I've met an opponent in this area. It's truly delightful," the girl said with a smile, her eyes filled with excitement—the excitement of seeing an opponent of similar skill. "I have no rivals in this interstellar space. Even the young master of the Federation was defeated by me. It's said that there are two invincible generals in the Federation, but unfortunately, I've never been able to find them. Now, it's all good; I've caught them."
The young woman stood up and gave the order: "Pass down the command! I, your lord, will personally lead the expedition and meet this so-called invincible general." "My lord is finally going to take action personally!" the subordinate exclaimed excitedly. "I will certainly record your heroic deeds!" "Hmph, just wait and see the Federation utterly routed by me!"
Wendy's hand moved across the control panel, creating afterimages, but his peripheral vision was fixed on another screen. That screen displayed the enemy's main fleet. Suddenly, Wendy's eyes narrowed. Below the main fleet, another mech appeared. This mech was pure white, seemingly symbolizing the pure and flawless nature of its owner. Before Wendy could think further, the white mech flashed before him like a white light.
"So fast!" Wendy reacted quickly, immediately maneuvering her mech to leave. However, the white mech, like a predator that had caught the scent of its prey, relentlessly pursued Wendy. "Wendy!" Xiao's image appeared on the control panel. "Are you alright? Do you need help?" "No, this guy is very strong. Don't get distracted, just leave it to me." Wendy shook her head.
He still remembered what Su Bai said: if he could take down the alliance, the reward would be given at that time. What he was doing now was just an appetizer. There were countless experts in the alliance. How could he lose his composure because of an opponent who was only of decent strength?
Wendy knew that she couldn't slack off this time; she had to give it her all to get through it.
Moreover, he had a premonition that the time was approaching and he would see Su Bai again.
"Is this... the power of the Abyss?" Wendy's pupils trembled slightly. This white mech was imbued with the power of the Abyss, specifically the power of ice. "So the power of the Abyss has begun to collude with Su Bai. But wait, the Abyss is trying to overthrow the world ruled by the gods, so why would it support a god?" Wendy's mind raced, but his hands didn't falter. Ice elements—if he were to come into contact with them, they would pose a significant threat to him.
The speed would decrease, which in a battle would be tantamount to giving the enemy an opening, and Wendy knew how dangerous that was.
That's why he didn't want Xiao to get involved in this confrontation with the Abyss.
"All you can do is hide? How boring!" The girl was fed up with the mecha's hiding and the tedious cat-and-mouse game. The mecha suddenly stopped, and then, countless shells shot out from behind it, all with the same goal: to destroy the enemy mecha!
