Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 885 - 626 Counterattack! _2

But no matter what, the sword and shield, have accompanied humanity on its journey from the barbaric to civilization.

Even after humanity developed unmatched physical might and spiritual energy, these ancient cold weapons have always been the most brilliant star on the human stage.

The classical martial artist wielded a long knife, with sapphire-like gleaming, diamond-shaped eyes, and turned to look at the fighter jets flying in the sky, intending to continue firing.

"Buzz~"

The long knife pointed, commanding the attention of a thousand armies!

Confronted with this giant that had awakened once more, the roaring fighter jets appeared somewhat listless for the first time...

'He really did it...'

"Holy crap! Amazing!"

Surprise and astonishment arose in the hearts of both Catherine and the spy.

The strange man who said he could repair two mecha in ten minutes had completed the repairs faster than the original plan.

"The other one is also ready, start your battle." From within that ancient warrior came a steady male voice, covered by electronic sound.

Even if he had never interacted with extraterrestrial technology before, in an emergency, working on this alien armament for the first time, Bai E felt a frighteningly high compatibility with this alien mecha.

The unfamiliar mecha cockpit was entirely different from layouts of the past.

No more buttons and gear sticks, abandoning the complex operations of yesteryears.

Only a biological direct-connect operating system linked directly to the will remained.

The mecha modification plan 2.0, which he had researched together with Helen but struggled with due to a lack of corresponding materials technology, also at this moment found its rightful place.

Bai E's adaptability to this new type of mecha was astonishingly fast, whether the mecha was made for him or he was made for this mecha.

The moment the will-link was established, Bai E could sense an inexplicable "will" inexplicably connecting him tightly to the mecha.

So much so that even without anyone teaching him how to use the mecha's voice system, the moment his mind wanted to do so, he instinctively knew how to operate the mecha's external amplification function.

"Good!" Catherine nodded excitedly, her figure launching out explosively.

The spy also came excitedly to the foot of the mecha Bai E was piloting, looking up with a face full of excitement at the position of the mecha cockpit and said, "Alright, let me do it, your mission is complete."

"..."

"..."

The mecha's detection system locked onto the small figure at its feet, and an enlarged electronic display showcased the man's expectant, upturned face.

The ambiguous communication will inside the mecha seemed to be asking Bai E whether to eliminate this unsightly guy below his feet.

"Not you."

Already quickly getting into another Blade I-type mecha and starting it up, a female voice enveloped in electronic sound came out, "To break through the blockade of the Psychic Energy Canopy, you must surpass conventional overload burst."

"Besides you, I'm the strongest mech pilot here! If I can't do it, who can?!" The spy stood akimbo, full of unwillingness.

Although the gap between himself and an ace like Catherine was vast, he was also a Star Alliance-certified Level One Mech Pilot, dammit!

"Him." The Blade I-type turned its head, looking at the cockpit of the mecha beside it.

Although unable to see the pilot through the cockpit, a glance at the crowd revealed that the strange soldier in military uniform was missing, so Catherine roughly guessed who was piloting.

And at such a critical moment having such courage and executive power, who else here could it be but him?

"Him?" The spy also roughly guessed the mech pilot inside this mecha was that mysterious technician Bai, "Him... Do you know his capability?"

"I don't know." Catherine said bluntly, "But your limit can be foreseen."

Facing the Psychic Energy Canopy, only another pilot of a similar level to mine might be able to collaborate with me to break through.

With the spy joining, it seems not much different from me being alone.

In moments like these, unknown risks offer more hope for success than conservative safety!

"..." The spy, with his pride hurt, clenched his fists tightly.

Catherine didn't look at him, her eyes fixated on the direction of Bai E's mecha cockpit, "Can you do it?"

"No problem."

Bai E grinned lightly.

As the time spent communicating with the mecha lengthened, the confidence he once had in his ability to perform within the mecha gradually returned for some unknown reason.

Although that clown-like voice had said it had taken away all his powers, based on the events that had transpired since arriving in extraterrestrial society... the outcome seemed otherwise.

Can it be done?

Can't it be done?

Who knows.

Let's give it a try.

"Then follow me!"

Communicating with the mecha through his mind, the anti-gravity device instantly allowed the heavy mecha to free itself from the artificial gravity of Freeport.

"Zoom!" The mecha rapidly ascended, heading towards the designated port of Freeport.

In the vast universe, without the protection of an atmosphere, only an artificial, invisible barrier protects all the travelers on Freeport.

If not considering everyone on Freeport, directly breaching the barrier is evidently a faster approach.

But Catherine wouldn't, nor would Bai E.

The disorderly soldiers seem numerous, but ultimately they're just a small part of Freeport's innumerable population.

The Peak Alliance wants destruction, they want salvation.

That's the difference in their actions.

Through the professional port, Freeport's staff expressed their final gratitude to the two.

"Thank you both... It's our failing for not stopping them."

"The remaining fighter jets have taken off with you, awaiting your orders."

"We wish you martial fortune and prosperity."

"Zoom!"

"Zoom!"

White streams spouted, as two blue-grey veterans once more cut through the pitch-black universe, heading to the unknown distant lands.

"Breathe~ Inhale~"

In the silent cockpit, only the voice from another mecha's communication channel sounded, "Have you ever experienced space combat?"

"No." Bai E replied truthfully.

"Can you execute the Alpha Limit Overclock Attack?"

"Never heard of that term."

"Don't worry about terminology. What we need to do is launch an attack in as short a time as possible strong enough to penetrate the Psychic Energy Canopy's defense and recovery abilities, understand?"

"Understood."

"..."

After a brief silence, Catherine's voice once again echoed from the other end of the communication, "If we manage to get out, once I fulfill the mission I bear, I'll buy you a drink."

"I'm also hoping to inquire about some things from you."

"I'll share everything I know without reserve."

"Thank you."

Strong spiritual energy scanned the universe deep space ahead through the mecha, until it touched a place resembling an impregnable psychic energy cliff, Catherine leading the way knew they had reached the blockade limit of the Psychic Energy Canopy.

The invisible Psychic Energy Canopy only exudes the most lethal threat within the psychic energy realm.

Without ever considering that her companion might even lack psychic abilities, Catherine rushed up with the sword.

"The opponent is setting up the weapon system, seize the opportunity, breakthrough the defense line!"

The private voice message was cut off, and the sharp female voice instantly resonated in another public channel.

"Open fire!"

"Received, ma'am!" The fighter squad leader responded.

Thus, endless thermal weapons abruptly fired at the empty space in front of everyone.

Silent flashes bloomed in the pitch-black universe deep space.

Like bursts of blooming fireworks, illuminating every individual's view before them.

"Buzz~"

A tranquil spherical space began to undulate with ripples, as floating turrets silently emerged from behind the canopy.

"They've slowed the deployment of the Star Annihilation Cannon, opting to use the floating artillery swarm to block our breakthrough!" Catherine's voice was steady yet full of passion, "Take action!"

"Swish!"

Dazzling knife light, at a speed the mecha's scanning system struggled to capture, erupted into a terrifying flash of the blade before them!
