Chapter 1591: Space-Based Weaponry

Xuanwu's body had long been transformed into a super warship by the East China Sea Major Region.

He possessed astonishingly defensive armor, enormous internal space, and the ability to dive and navigate, making him the perfect natural material for a super warship!

The progress of enhancing supernatural powers was slow, but when combined with technological means, strength could be rapidly improved.

Inside Xuanwu's body was a Heaven-tier weapon similar to Lu Keran's Tianshui City Cannons!

Hearing Zhuque's call, Xuanwu responded, "The Xuan Light Cannon did cause some impact on the enemy, but that alone is far from enough to deal with him! I need to request higher-level clearance from the Major Region."

He immediately applied to Supreme Commander Li Guangxiao for authorization to deploy a more advanced weapon.

Li Guangxiao replied instantly, "What are you waiting for? Spare no cost, eliminate these damned invaders! Otherwise, East Sea City is finished!"

The situation was urgent, and Li Guangxiao did not hesitate in the slightest.

If this weren't their territory, Li Guangxiao would have even considered dropping a few Love of Death warheads directly on them!

"Understood! Clearance granted."

On the other side, although the Silver Armor leader was somewhat battered, his imposing aura remained as fierce as ever.

He seemed to have reined in some of his contempt for humanity. Glancing at Qinglong and Zhuque beside him, he raised the blood orb in his hand.

"Even when facing children, negligence is inexcusable!"

"Then, let me end this battle quickly!"

The moment his words fell, the blood jade in his palm suddenly detonated in midair!

A terrifying river of gore surged forth from the sky. Within it, Qinglong and Zhuque seemed to see the shadows of countless dead souls, the faces of slain warriors, struggling and wailing, surging toward them atop the waves of blood!

Qinglong's expression was utterly grim. Suddenly, he grabbed Zhuque's body with his massive hand and, using every ounce of strength he possessed, hurled her far into the distance.

"Qinglong, you..."

Zhuque had not expected Qinglong to do this, but her body was already uncontrollably flung away.

Qinglong's voice rang in her ears, "You haven't broken through your limits yet, staying here won't help me! Go over there instead and assist the battle on other fronts!"

Qinglong's voice was ice-cold, as if he thought Zhuque was holding him back.

But in Zhuque's eyes, a misty haze slowly began to form.

She understood Qinglong's character. At a time like this, choosing to do this was his way of protecting her.

Because the enemy before them was far too powerful.

A feeling of inexpressible emotion welled up in Zhuque's heart. She resented her own weakness.

Even though she was already one of the top three masters in East Sea City, when faced with the invasion of top-tier experts, she couldn't even be of any help.

She didn't want to sacrifice her comrades again.

But she had not forgotten that she was a soldier, a guardian of the East China Sea Major Region. Running over in a moment of impulsive recklessness to throw her life away would be meaningless!

Zhuque gritted her teeth, stabilized her body, and activated the flight jets on her combat suit, speeding toward the battlefield where the Azure Armor warriors were.

Qinglong, facing the Silver Armor leader's river of gore, could already feel the crisis of death approaching, so he unleashed all of his power!

A golden breath blast shot toward the blood river, clashing against that bizarre force.

Yet his attack was completely devoured by the blood river, not even splashing up the slightest ripple.

And just as he was on the brink of despair, with the blood river coiling around him, Xuanwu finally completed the docking with the more advanced weapon.

He raised his head and gazed at the high heavens.

The night sky was overcast with dense clouds, not exactly good weather.

But above those thick storm clouds, in a region even higher and farther away.

A massive military satellite unfurled its wing-shaped solar panels and adjusted its angle. An immeasurably vast surge of energy gathered along the energy transmission channel, concentrating at the stinger-shaped firing aperture at its tip.

Toward the blue planet below, a beam of white light blasted down!

From the perspective of space, it was an extremely slender line, utterly unremarkable.

But as it pierced through the atmosphere, through layer upon layer of clouds and mist, descending with an unstoppable momentum, a deafening roar echoed across the sky, like countless thunderclaps striking in succession!

"BOOM!!!"

In the sky, the cloud layers were blasted open, and the surging energy rendered that expanse of sky completely clear!

The Silver Armor leader seemed to sense something and looked up toward the heavens. All he saw was a colossal meteor blazing into existence directly above his head, plummeting straight down with irresistible force!

Around that beam of light, layer upon layer of clouds parted on their own, forming enormous circular passages.

Everything happened in an instant.

By the time the Silver Armor leader realized it was descending, its speed had already reached an unimaginable level.

So, merely at the moment he raised his head, he was completely engulfed by that immense pillar of silver light!

The radiance illuminated East Sea City!

It was as if dawn had broken.

Back in the 1980s, the high command of Colombia had once proposed a bold Star Wars plan.

Using satellites as weapons, establishing a strike network covering the entire globe.

The goal of this plan was to achieve precise, powerful strike capabilities that could instantly cover any location on the planet.

Later, as the struggle between Colombia and Freemonts came to an end, this plan gradually faded from public view.

But entering the mid-21st century, with the development of technological power and the continuous rise of armed forces, the Star Wars plan was picked up again by many powerful nations.

In December 2050, the Ice Age descended once more.

To deal with the endless emergence of Transcendents, the high commands of various nations began developing even more powerful weapons capable of precisely striking individuals.

Weapons launched from the planet's surface, possessing the power to kill Epsilon-class Transcendents, were called [Heaven-tier Weaponry].

Weapons launched from space, using satellites and similar means, descending upon the surface in an instant, were called [Space-Based Weaponry].

As the guardian of the Huaxu Nation's coastline, the East China Sea Major Region naturally possessed the most cutting-edge weapons of technology.

As the space-based weapon crashed down, the sheer terror of its energy triggered storms that shook all of East Sea City!

The Mist Valley warriors who had been slaughtering the Sea Dragon Guard witnessed this apocalyptic spectacle and their faces changed color one by one.

"How can this be?"

"It hasn't reached the predicted time node yet, why is the heavenly punishment descending now?"

"Could it be that our predictions were wrong?"

The warrior commander clad in black-and-white armor immediately flew without hesitation toward the landing site of the space-based weapon.

If the Silver Armor leader truly fell in battle, he would have to consider whether to continue with the next phase of the operation.

Because in that case, the entire invasion plan would have to change!
