Herbert raised the silver spear in his hand and pointed it at Kavise, speaking coldly.
"Will you surrender yourself, or should I personally capture you and take you to see Lord of Icaroya?"
"Haha! It seems over the years you’ve beco quite arrogant, actually thinking you can take down? Even Crock wouldn’t dare speak to like this. You weren’t my match back then, and you still aren’t now. If you have the guts, go ahead."
Kavise looked at his forr companion, finding him increasingly amusing.
Although Herbert’s words were harsh, his deanor showed no trace of underestimating or being careless. Instead, he was completely alert to Kavise.
He didn’t imdiately launch an attack, opting more to restrain and try to buy ti.
Of course, Kavise noticed this and wasn’t about to give Herbert any opportunity. He maneuvered his cha explosively forward, flashing before Herbert with the blade in hand, cleaving down.
Herbert, controlling the Future ssenger, nimbly dodged aside, sweeping the silver spear backward.
The two entwined in combat, and for a mont Kavise found himself intercepted by Herbert’s sheer strength.
Su Mo witnessed the scene and said, quite shocked.
"So strong."
"Let’s go, your cha is practically useless now and can’t continue fighting,"
The creator, Swallower, advised Su Mo with a deep tone, although it didn’t expect Su Mo to defeat the opponent. As a result, it didn’t fully unleash its power to assist Su Mo in battle but rather retained most of its strength for critical monts to save lives.
Su Mo’s expression changed, he looked at another battlefield besieging the Pale Blade.
He found that the situation was also quite bleak, with Krisia and the others being pressed hard.
Su Mo let out a deep breath, feeling unwilling but rational, he chose to heed the creator, Swallower’s advice and decided to give up.
Thus, he controlled the Divine Guard cha to tactically retreat, heading towards the backup hangar.
From the observation platform, Icaroya watched the fierce battles coldly, unfazed even as more soldiers and masters fell before her.
Her expression remained unchanged, showing no hint of emotion.
Emperor Isaac and Queen Haven grew increasingly uneasy, although Herbert had joined the fray, it wouldn’t change anything. Unless Crock achieved victory on his side.
But thinking it over, it was clearly impossible.
With Icaroya making no statent, they didn’t dare to say anything.
...
Shortly after, Su Mo maneuvered the crippled Divine Guard cha back to the private hangar through a private passage.
As soon as the Divine Guard cha landed, Wang Hai, Sun Duoxiang, and others rushed forward.
"Su Mo!"
"Boss!"
....
At this point, Su Mo opened the cockpit and jumped down.
The crowd surrounded him tightly, asking with great concern.
"Are you okay?"
"Are you hurt anywhere?"
Su Mo, feeling a bit weary, shook his head and replied, "No issues."
"That’s good."
Seeing this, Sun Duoxiang and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Just monts before, seeing the severely damaged Divine Guard cha had made their hearts sink.
Su Mo turned to Dr. Zhang Wei, hoarsely asking, "Doctor, can the Divine Guard cha be repaired?"
Dr. Zhang Wei looked at the nearly scrapped Divine Guard cha, and showed a bitter smile, addressing Su Mo, "Repairing it is possible, but it can’t be done quickly."
At that mont, everyone at the scene fell silent as well.
Su Mo sighed without saying much, as he had already anticipated this result.
Honestly, even with repairs, it wouldn’t guarantee effectiveness in the fight. Pure chanical chas, when used, can’t fully unleash their ultimate power. No matter how intricate the micro-operations, absolute power trumps all.
If only Su Mo had a decent Biological cha, he wouldn’t be fighting so embarrassingly.
At this, Wang Hai placed his hand on Su Mo’s shoulder consolingly.
"Don’t bla yourself too much. We saw that you tried your best and did exceptionally well."
"Exactly, Boss, the battle scene is terrifying, there’s absolutely no hope."
"Indeed, isn’t there a way to watch the external battles here?"
Su Mo perked up and asked.
"Yes, part of the base’s power system has been repaired now, so we can watch the external battle projections."
Sun Duoxiang replied quickly.
"Good."
Su Mo noticed a battle projection in the corner of the hangar, so he walked over.
Sun Duoxiang and the others hurriedly followed to watch the battle together.
The current battle on screen was extraordinarily intense, with Yurika suppressing Immortal Empire’s Krisia and Sith, leaving them breathless.
Over on Kavise’s side, the battle was even more fierce.
Herbert pushed the Future ssenger’s performance to the limits, with the cha appearing as an afterimage around Kavise, the silver spear darted like a venomous snake, delivering lethal strikes.
Kavise took it seriously and raised his Black Blade repeatedly to block the silver spear.
While launching a swift counterattack!
Herbert, reacting to a missed strike, imdiately dodged, moving cleanly without the slightest delay.
The back-and-forth combat between the two had everyone’s hearts racing.
"So strong."
Sun Duoxiang couldn’t help but admire.
"Indeed."
Su Mo replied hoarsely after a mont of silence.
Sun Duoxiang suddenly felt he may have misspoken, hurriedly telling Su Mo, "Boss, in my heart, you are stronger than him, it’s just your cha isn’t as good as his."
"No need to say anymore, I know my place, it’s not going to happen."
Su Mo sighed longingly.
"That may not be the case."
A low hoarse voice suddenly erged.
Su Mo and the others paused, turning to look. An old man in a black robe appeared in the hangar.
The old man resembled a withered wood, his face full of wrinkles, occasionally coughing, looking sickly.
Yet Wang Hai and the others felt imnse pressure.
Su Mo looked at the old man, his eyes filled with disbelief as he exclaid, "Old man, why are you here?"
The old man coughed, covering his mouth, and hoarsely said.
"Follow ."
Saying that, the old man turned around and left without looking back.
Without a word, Su Mo wanted to catch up, but Sun Duoxiang quickly shouted.
"Boss? Should I co with you?"
"No need, just stay here."
Su Mo instructed, then chased after the old man.
He soon caught up with the old man, but the old man kept silent, hands behind his back, remaining quiet while Su Mo also chose to follow silently.
Until the two left the backup base, venturing onto a devastated street.
Then the old man spoke hoarsely.
"Do you know why I’m here for you?"
"No idea."
Su Mo was equally puzzled, wondering why the old man appeared at such a crucial ti.
