When the sword fey condensed into a sword formation and struck the chest plate of the nunser phase lord, many humans and aliens paid attention whether this attack could penetrate through the armor.
The raint worn by the Fifth Lord of Bis'qet may not be as advanced and complete as the raint worn by the Protector of Karnak, but it still offered a good deal of defense against superdinsional weapons.
Most importantly, the nunser greater phase lord's raint boasted the greatest thickness at the front. The armor layers were thicker and more nurous as that was the side that the Fifth Lord most often expected to receive attacks.
Right now, a silent collision occurred as the sword fey concentrated all of its power into the leading Pri Sword Fey!
Although it was made out of mid-grade superdinsional alloy like the other sword fey, it not only bore the willpower amplification and tal energy empowernt of Saint Dise, but also served as the tip of the spear of the entire sword formation!
Upon the mont of collision, sparks, spatial disruptions and other energy fluctuations erupted from the point of impact!
It beca extrely difficult for anyone to get a clear look at what had happened!
Only an instant passed before the other remaining sword fey continued to surge forward and collide against the raint.
While the effect of the Pri Sword Fey remained unclear, it was still possible to quickly determine the effect of the ordinary sword fey.
"Failed to penetrate!"
This was a disappointing but expected result. While they retained their willpower and tal energy empowernt, the sword formation had lost effect as soon as it had crumbled.
In fact, this was also a sign that the sword formation clearly wasn't powerful enough to drill straight through the armor and body of the Fifth Lord of Bis'qet.
Now, the real question beca how deep the Pri Sword Fey managed to punch through the armor.
As the disturbances slowly cleared up, many sensor systems were able to observe the actual results.
"The tip… partially sunk into the armor!"
"The leading sword spur has penetrated through at least three armor layers! The other sword fey have only managed to produce shallow cuts in a single armor layer."
This did not sound impressive, but those who understood the circumstances better all grew incredibly impressed!
"A junior ace ch with access to hull-grade superdinsional weapons is already able to damage the layers of the Fifth Lord's Saint Blocker raint!"
According to the analysis of the Red Three, the superdinsional alloy used in the making of the so-called Saint Blocker raints roughly perford better than mid-grade superdinsional alloy but was a little short of matching high-grade superdinsional alloy.
Plenty of human material scientists and tallurgists speculate that the native aliens actually had a way of producing or harvesting hull-grade superdinsional matter.
They then relied on special thods and complentary resources to produce superior superdinsional alloys.
In other words, the Red Cabal probably relied on superior tallurgical attainnts or so sort of profound ancient heritage to surpass red humanity in this field!
This strengthened the theory that the phase whales likely produced their own superdinsional matter rather than mining it from the Blue Dinsion.
Regardless, the naked penetration power of the sword fey shouldn't be strong enough to pierce through the first layer of the Saint Blocker under ordinary circumstances.
It was only through the application of overwhelming brute force or more exotic forms of amplification that Saint Dise was able to produce such a result.
The latter was apparently strong enough to surpass the inherent material shortcomings of the sword fey!
Both Jovy and Vector exchanged glances as they witnessed all of this happening from a control room in the Tarrasque.
"It appears that you have lost the bet." Jovy directly stated.
"Right." Vector directly conceded.
At this ti, the First Sword Mark III had just completed her first attack run and had already circled around by this ti.
Her sword fey did not return to her side.
It was a bit troubleso to recall the sword fey now that they had penetrated the Fifth Lord's spatial barrier with so much effort.
Besides, why call them back when they could continue to attack the greater phase lord?
Under the command of their ace pilot, the intelligent sword fey dispersed and began to stab at the greater phase lord's body from all sides.
The sword fey failed to inflict much damage this ti. They dispersed too much and did not leverage the power of sword formations.
They also could not build up any montum to add more power to their attacks.
Even so, the Fifth Lord of Bis'qet could not afford to ignore the harassnt!
His raint may have been designed and molded to fit his quadruped body at its current scale, but it did not cover every part of his body!
To be more specific, parts of hid underside and many of the joint areas were still exposed, making it easier for the sword fey to pierce his flesh directly if they managed to land a strike!
Even if the sword fey were not able to strike with enough force to sink down to the hilt, the shallow stab and slash wounds already generated a considerable amount of distress!
"$#&%@!"
"BEGONE!"
The Fifth Lord tried to swat the sword fey away. While he managed to batter them to the side by whacking the closest ones with his Saint Piercer arm, the sword fey quickly recovered and imdiately resud their autonomous attacks!
Even if he was able to block and push the sword fey within his reach aside, that left the other floating blades free to attack the greater phase lord's body from other angles!
Although the Fifth Lord had a growing urge to rotate his body and batter aside the other sword fey, he did not dare to face away from the source of his misery.
At this ti, the First Sword Mark III was charging forward to launch another attack run!
The greater phase lord could only endure the multitude of weak attacks, trusting in his Saint Blocker raint to prevent the silly blades from targeting his vitals.
He knew that as long as he destroyed or repelled the ace ch, the sword fey would automatically cease to pose a threat.
The nunser phase lord quickly restored his previous stance and beca determined to impale the incoming ace ch this ti.
He had a better asure of his adversary at this ti. The First Sword Mark III had already exposed her speed and maneuverability. Now that he possessed this information, the experienced martial phase lord beca a little more confident in his ability to intercept his adversary at this ti.
However, the sa also applied to Saint Dise.
She not only figured out much of the Fifth Lord's capabilities first-hand, but also had a much better asure of her strength and that of her superdinsional ace ch!
If a bunch of mid-grade superdinsional sword fey were able to penetrate one to three layers of the enemy phase lord's armor, then how much more damage could she produce by stabbing it with the Decapitator?
As the First Sword Mark III charged forward yet again, the ace pilot condensed her Saint Kingdom and used it to complent her next sword technique!
Compared to ssing around with sword formations, Saint Dise possessed much greater familiarity in the sword style that she had honed for her entire career!
She had multiple different choices at her disposal, but she could not ignore the threat of getting stabbed with a Saint Piercer arm by the full force of a physically superior greater phase lord.
Dise therefore decided to execute the technique that she and Ketis especially devised to counter phase lords like the Fifth Lord!
Just as the First Sword Mark III was about to collide with the greater phase lord again, the Decapitator glowed with energies that produced an indescribable disruption effect.
At the sa ti, Dise sent her companion spirit Respa into the space suppressor of her ace ch.
Just before the First Sword Mark III managed to get close enough, the ace ch already weakened the Fifth Lord's spatial manipulation!
His limbs grew weaker. His spatial barrier lost a bit of power. His ability to lock down the surrounding space had no chance of touching the incoming ace ch!
These setbacks threatened to disrupt the Fifth Lord's concentration, but the nunser phase lord had lived for a long ti. He had faced nurous perils throughout his long life, so he knew the importance of maintaining focus during this critical ti!
Just before the First Sword Mark III entered into his striking range, the Fifth Lord decisively stabbed his formidable Saint Piercer forward, confident that he had predicted the ace ch's movent!
"#$%!"
"YOUR ARROGANCE SHALL BE YOUR DOWNFALL!"
Just as he predicted, the tip of his Saint Piercer surged directly towards the charging ace ch with unerring accuracy!
The weapon struck so quickly and with so much force that the Fifth Lord could not imagine a possibility where the ace ch could block, deflect or evade his stab!
Even if he could feel the Saint Kingdom trying to weaken and arrest the montum of the Saint Piercer, it had little to no effect!
After all, Saint Piercers were weapons that the phase whales specifically designed to counter ace pilots and ace chs. They were absurdly effective at piercing through the nonsense of domain fields.
They almost always ca in the form of polearms as that made it even more inconvenient for Saint Kingdoms to affect their entire lengths.
Right now, the Fifth Lord could almost imagine the tip of his sharp and hungry spear punch through the chest plate of the ace ch!
Superdinsional or not, willpower empowernt or not, the Fifth Lord's strength combined with the First Sword Mark III's own montum should produce a highly lethal result!
Even if the tip of the Saint Piercer got ruined after this, the outco would be completely worth it in his opinion!
Yet before his proportionally larger weapon could even graze the chestplate of the pristine new ace ch, a masterwork greatsword swung at the slender speartip from a tricky angle.
"PHASE CUTTER."
At the sa ti, the ace ch's Electro-Reactant Flight System briefly overloaded, producing a massive thrust directed towards the side!
"He missed!"
"The Fifth Lord of Bis'qet actually failed to pierce through to the ace ch!"
"No, it's worse! Look at his weapon!"
Everyone including the nunser greater phase lord himself beca shocked as they witnessed the current state of the Saint Piercer arm.
This lengthy polearm which must have made the lives of nurous ace pilots miserable in the past had lost its head.
The Decapitator had decapitated the Saint Piercer, causing its sharp but unmoored tip to tumble off into another direction of space.
anwhile, the slightly shortened polearm had been left with a diagonal cut that revealed an entire cross section.
Although it looked as if the sharp edges of this cut might still be used to stab at enemies, the effect wouldn't be as good as before!
Saint Dise had practically reduced the nightmare of all ace chs into a much less threatening staff!
That was not all. While the Fifth Lord struggled to accept how easily the ace ch had cut through a weapon that had resisted the attacks of multiple other ace chs, the First Sword Mark III did not turn swerve too far away.
Instead, the electric-winged ace ch relied on her impressive mobility to redirect her montum yet again. Her sharp turn allowed her to close the distance to the phase lord a lot faster than before!
While the Fifth Lord had beco unbalanced due to the sudden setback, he was still strong and experienced enough to realize the danger.
He imdiately began to wield his Saint Piercer like a staff and sought to physically batter away the ace ch with the side of its shaft!
Although the strike arrived quickly, Saint Dise already predicted the greater phase lord's move far in advance.
Before the shaft could get close enough to inflict a powerful strike against the offensive ace ch, the latter's electric wings made another powerful flap.
This happened to push the fast and agile ace ch far away enough for the shaft of the Saint Piercer to miss!
"He's open!"
The First Sword Mark III continued to charge forward and directly used the tip of her Decapitator to pierce and shatter the greater phase lord's spatial barrier all at once!
This was the power of a weapon-grade superdinsional greatsword!
However, just before the ace ch was about to stab at the Fifth Lord's raint, the greater phase lord reacted faster than expected and tilted his armored body upwards so that he could launch a desperate kick at the First Sword Mark III!
"Watch out, Dise!"
