Just as red humanity feared, the native aliens expanded their exploitation of superdinsional matter.
The Red Cabal previously had been stingy with handing over Saint Piercer arms to various martial greater phase lords.
While they certainly made a difference and proved much more effective at repelling or even killing the human false gods, the superdinsional spears alone was not enough to create enough parity.
Human ace chs all maintained the sa approximate size range. While their ability to inflict damage on a large scale remained a bit limited, their potent combination of speed, agility and power still allowed them to run rings around their much larger but clumsier adversaries.
So long as the ace chs managed to overco the formidable spatial barriers that protected these phase lords and directly targeted the head or other weak points, these human false gods were able to slay mighty phase lords in a disturbingly effective manner!
The Red Cabal understood this problem for a long ti.
The phase whales tried various different solutions. The Protector of Karnak clearly obtained the privilege to test one of them.
A full superdinsional raint that exposed no obvious weak points left Saint Dise with no easy openings to take down the enemy phase lord in a short amount of ti!
Though Saint Dise felt confident that her resonance-empowered blade could cut through the enemy's superdinsional raint by force, she knew that it would not be easy.
This was precisely what the greater phase lords needed to put up a more equal fight against human ace pilots and ace chs.
Too many of their fellow gods had already perished at the hands of the humans because they arrogantly fought with their true bodies exposed.
Armor existed for good reasons. The native aliens previously did not experience a threat that was serious enough to warrant full coverage with superdinsional alloy.
Yet when confronting a human ace ch, the Protector of Karnak had delayed his arrival long enough to don his customized superdinsional raint.
As far as craftsmanship went, the raint was designed and built to excellent standards.
Not only that, but Saint Dise spotted plenty of design elents that looked right at ho in high-end chs.
She sneered. "Those traitors are at it again. The cosmopolitans cannot limit themselves to leaking our tech to your side. They also have to lend the expertise of their own ch designers to improve and optimize your raint. Pathetic. You aliens have obviously decided that since you cannot beat us by relying on your massive true bodies, you aliens have instead decided to imitate our human chs."
Though the Protector of Karnak hated the human false god's slanderous words, even he could not deny the truth of her statent.
Phase whales and phase lords previously pursued size at all costs.
Skill and finesse beca secondary to raw might and indomitable true bodies.
The bigger phase leader almost always won a confrontation against their weaker peers. That was the way of life among the native aliens before the human invasion.
This was why Saint Dise was surprised that the Red Cabal had already been willing to relent so much. She thought that the native aliens would have dug their heels.
She had misjudged the shalessness of the native aliens.
However, the enemy had probably made the right choice.
Saint Dise did not fear a battle against a greater phase lord that fought in a traditional manner.
Her superdinsional ace ch gave her infinite confidence in her ability to deal with such clumsy brutes.
Yet a greater phase lord that was willing to let down his pride and abandon his old way of fighting in order to imitate human chs posed a much more serious threat.
This feeling beca more pronounced when the Protector of Karnak raised one of his sharp and tal-clad claws and began to perform a strange spatial technique, likely with the help of an unknown phasewater organ!
The claw began to buzz and shimr. The infusion of spatial power sohow made the implent more threatening!
Saint Dise could instinctively sense that it would be a very bad idea for her ace ch to get pincered by this empowered claw.
The strong spatial energies surging at the sharp edges sohow activated a hidden aspect of the superdinsional alloy to the point where it almost gained the power to cut through space itself!
Although Dise did not expect to encounter such a threatening foe, she slowly began to grin.
She could not have dread of a better opponent!
Instead of butchering the phase lords that were stationed in this star system as if they were fat and stupid pigs, she could actually enjoy a proper duel against an adequately equipped opponent!
Her Saint Kingdom grew more energetic. The illusion of blades grew stronger as her excitent rose.
The ace pilot took the Protector of Karnak so seriously that she recalled her sword fey without hesitation.
This ti, she no longer let them wander around freely, but instead guided them to line up behind her electric-winged ace ch like an army of rigid soldiers.
Her lips curled into a grin.
"Before I can devote my full attention to you, let clear out the trash. I don't want our duel to be disturbed by spoilsports."
Before the disturbingly well-equipped phase lord could issue a response, the massive electric wings of the ace ch made a powerful flap, causing the machine to launch upwards with formidable speed!
It took a small mont for the greater phase lord to realize that his opponent had fled from his claws.
"#$&&@%!"
His angry alien roar thundered across the damaged base!
His armored form rose shortly afterwards and flew straight in pursuit of the ace ch!
The fabric of space warped around the Protector of Karnak as he tried his best to intercept the ace ch.
The alien god was old and wise enough to understand exactly what Saint Dise intended!
While the jureg greater phase lord proved to be impressively fast among his kind, he was not quite able to match the speed of the cutting-edge superdinsional ace ch.
What was worse was that the First Sword had already built up a considerable lead.
The Protector of Karnak could only helplessly transmit a warning to the two other greater phase lords and assorted lesser phase lords that were hovering protectively over their hoships.
None of the lesser phase lords were foolish enough to ignore the magnitude of the incoming threat.
They all understood the horror of particularly powerful ace chs and had no interest in tangling against a human false god that felt confident enough to confront them alone!
Of course, the lesser phase gods used to be a lot more courageous in the past.
It was only after hundreds of them rcilessly got cut down by the human false gods that they curbed their arrogance and recognized reality.
Nowadays, many alien phase lords had beco a lot more familiar with human high-ranking chs.
Those among them whose eyesight had not improved after all of this ti had already paid for their mistakes with their lives.
This was the cruelty of the Red War!
As the lesser phase lords completely disregarded their deanor as 'gods' and scattered from the flight trajectory of the superdinsional ace ch, the two greater phase lords did not move from their protective positions.
Unlike their lesser counterparts, the greater phase lords could not let down their pride so easily.
Despite the warning issued by the Protector of Karnak, the Fifth Lord of Bis'qet and the Endless Stomach possessed their own sources of confidence.
The forr was not only equipped with a thick raint that did a good job of covering his head and most of his nunser body, but also wielded a Saint Piercer arm.
The Endless Stomach looked forward to devouring the human ace ch and grinding the ch fra down with the help of its newly acquired superdinsional teeth.
While both greater phase lords refused to back away from the incoming threat, they did not attempt to confront this enemy alone. They possessed enough sense to lean on each other for help.
When it beca clear that the First Sword Mark III had set her sights on the Fifth Lord of Bis'qet, the Endless Stomach distanced himself from his own fleet and moved to reinforce his fellow native god!
Yet because the two fleets initially distrusted each other, they had positioned themselves too far away to reinforce each other quickly.
The Endless Stomach was also not a particularly fast greater phase lord, so the First Sword Mark III's fearless charge put all of the alien gods at a disadvantage!
The First Sword Mark III's Electro-Reactant Flight System proved their value many tis over.
They expended energy like nothing else, but the thrust power generated by the large electric wings was the real deal.
Multiple alien warships tried to intercept the ace ch. Their secondary armants opened fire along her rough trajectory with surprising coordination.
Not only did they fire their guns all at once, they also covered many different angles and coordinates to the point they weaved a dense web of energy beams and projectiles!
It was rare to see this level of coordination from the native aliens, but their better-trained soldiers needed to rely on advanced tactics in order to defeat the human chs.
While 90 to 95 percent of the attacks ended up missing their mark, they had already served their purpose because the remainder always managed to strike the ch fra with every salvo.
The First Sword Mark III did not even bother to evade. She was not fast and agile enough to imitate the Dark Zephyr in trying to evade the dense net of firepower.
Dise chose to put her faith in her Saint Kingdom and her superdinsional ch.
They did not fail her. Energy beams, solid rounds, explosive shells and even more destructive transphasic missiles all tried and failed to slow down the ace ch.
No matter whether the attacks arrived at the front or rear, the superdinsional machine no longer possessed any glaring weak points!
Saint Dise could readily ignore attacks below a certain degree of power and intensity.
As the First Sword Mark III closed in on the Fifth Lord of Bis'qet, the greater nunser phase lord prepared to et the approaching machine.
The Fifth Lord did not excel in spatial manipulation, but he tried to set up the battlefield by warping the space around him, turning it into a quagmire that often interfered with the movents of nearby enemies.
It was not enough to truly entrap ace chs, but they had to expend a lot more willpower and strength in order to maintain their trajectories.
As the First Sword Mark III continued to charge forth, the nunser phase lord chose to make a stand by pointing his Saint Piercer arm straight ahead.
His intention could not be more obvious. Recognizing that evading the charge attack was useless, the greater phase lord wanted to make the ace ch impale herself onto his own superdinsional weapon!
Whether he was fast and accurate enough to nail the ace ch remained unclear, but the threat of it should be enough to make the human false god hesitant!
The First Sword Mark III did not slow down.
She continued to accelerate forward, seemingly disregarding the very real danger posed by the Saint Piercer arm.
Her response was to command her sword fey to move slightly ahead of her machine. They gradually moved forward until they ford a wedge formation.
This enabled them to resonate with each other in a specific way. Although weak, there was power in this sword formation that enabled the sword fey to concentrate their power in the blades at the front!
The Fifth Lord of Bis'qet felt an unreasonable amount fear from this sword formation.
His instincts may not be as sharp as that of an ace pilot, but they were not blind to the lethality radiating from the blades!
