Chapter 1848: Chapter 579: Meteor’s Backup Plan

"Quantum Ghost, that truly lives up to its name..."

Right when the Heide civilization and the Gemini Empire fleets clashed, the planet attacked by the Insect Swarm had an Undead still pondering how to convey a message to her, yet Bai Yi was already watching the battlefield situation from afar within the planet.

In fact, it was the Undead’s concern that led to chaos.

A battle between 8th Rank beings, how could it not attract her observation?

Although some Undead left too early, not knowing she had personally arrived.

At this moment in space, the uniquely characteristic mechanical army of the Quantum Ghost was colliding with another 8th Rank’s meteorite swarm.

Just as the Gemini Empire Commander thought, due to the war, the number of high-rank individuals roaming outside the battlefield was already limited, and when restricted to the 8th Rank, the list shrank to a handful.

With the display of this extraordinary ability, Bai Yi had already locked onto the target.

This was a self-proclaimed unaffiliated 8th Rank extraordinary, who single-handedly built a not insignificant mercenary organization, quite renowned.

Due to his own Mechanical Master capabilities, combined with some Magician’s techniques and his own earth-based superpower, he could perform the ability to transform rocks into a puppet legion, called "Meteor", "Son of Meteor" Xidong.

However, at this moment, this "Son of Meteor" was clearly on the losing end.

Similarly, in legion clashes, the puppets formed by meteorites were overwhelmed by the mechanical forces’ impact on the other side, unable to collapse immediately but nonetheless at a disadvantage.

Under the dual assault of ranged bombardment and melee from the mechanical forces, the rock golems were completely suppressed in individual strength.

With the same attack, the spells released by the rock golems could only shatter the mechanical forces’ shields, which were restored in seconds, and in melee, they could only knock the machines away, unable to cause real damage.

Even though the "Son of Meteor’s" special ability could reinvigorate the defeated rock golems, recombine and awaken them, and become combat power again.

On the other side, the Quantum Ghost’s mechanical forces were equally relentless.

Each machine seemed to have its own mind, with cooperation not losing to the Insect Swarm, easily achieving the overall coordination the rock golems couldn’t.

They would occasionally flash with an energy like data flow, constructing virtual mechanical forces from mechanical debris, no less significant than the puppet legion’s "resurrection."

Most importantly, these from the Quantum Ghost not only received stronger amplification, but their own technology and material were also superior, with individual strength far surpassing the rock golems.

Each machine, gleaming with a faint blue light, composed of countless data streams and fragments, resembled a ghost formed from quantum data.

"This Quantum Ghost has probably reached the 8th Rank’s limit..."

The Gemini Empire is still hiding such a powerful Mechanical Master!"

Bai Yi revealed a playful smile.

She had thought the Three Great Civilizations would definitely hide some transcendent beings, even imagining some very strong ones, but this was the first time she encountered these hidden high-tier extraordinary individuals.

No, this couldn’t be the first time.

After all, she had previously encountered some leaders of the Faith Hunters, but their strength was not as formidable as this time.

Purely in combat strength, Bai Yi felt this Quantum Ghost was no weaker than the 8th Rank Mages in her current territory from the Maga World.

Moreover, where there is one, there is likely two; if the Gemini Empire is hiding, the other two would certainly not be unprepared.

These individuals are probably the true bottom-line guardians, the core forces protecting the civilizations themselves of the Three Great Civilizations.

Just like this Quantum Ghost safeguarding the Gemini Empire’s Imperial Mother Star’s Quantum Network.

The battle in the sky continued; even at a disadvantage, as an 8th Rank extraordinary and a Mechanical Master path, "Meteor" was not so easy to defeat.

But the battlefield would not wait for the two to determine a victor.

The Gemini Empire was not intended to engage directly, nor intended to leave too many traces, only to lure the Insect Swarm over.

Having taken these ten minutes, the time was sufficient.

When the Heide civilization couldn’t drive away the fleet immediately, and the high-tier extraordinary couldn’t win immediately, even when suppressed, the Heide civilization had actually already lost.

Looking to the sky in another direction, the previously azure and purple-tinted sky suddenly showed a shadowy blur, which in just a few dozen seconds transformed from a vague mass to a swarm of vast black dots visible to everyone.

Each had a metallic sheen on their dark shells, with legs under their abdomens gleaming coldly.

— Insect Swarm!

A massive Insect Swarm descended from the sky, like an inverted black vortex, covering from above.

And one such vortex was not the only one; seeing around, at least a dozen vortices connected heaven and earth, deploying a huge number of Insect Swarms.

Even though Bai Yi stood by the top floor window of a tall building in the city, frantic exclamations immediately reached Bai Yi’s ears from below.

The planet’s current situation was observed by "Meteor" and the Fleet Commander from space.

The Insect Swarm invasion was unprevented, the fleet confrontation reached a stalemate, reinforcements were not yet arrived, and they might even get defeated before reinforcements could come.

At this stage, "Meteor" had thoughts of retreat.

"Ha, you must be the legendary ’Quantum Ghost’, truly living up to the name, even bringing you out."

Being both Mechanical Masters, communicating in battle seemed simple.
