The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

Pace shook his head, indicating that he didn’t know either. The young military policeman once again looked at the skyship outside the window and murmured:
“What am I thinking about? Of course my master can escape. He has a steam armor. Even I can…”
At this moment, with a faint flash of light, the factor shield of the [Admir Sky Eye] completely collapsed.
“Fire!” Pace shouted majestically.
The giant iron dragon running wildly on the rails exhaled, and five red lights exploded from head to tail one after another, shooting the shells burning with red light into the sky.
After a precise arc, five shells hit the two engines on the front of the skyship one after another.
“Boom!”
The [Eye in the Sky] trembled violently, but the [Armored Train] did not give it any chance to catch its breath, and opened fire again after just a dozen seconds.
“Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-“
The red light hit the engine nozzle on the front side of the sky ship again. This time, an even stronger factor energy annihilation exploded, and the huge engine nozzle exploded into pieces, turning into fireworks in the air.
The hull of the [Eye of the Sky] tilted at this moment. At the same time, in order to prevent the ship from capsizing, the output power of several engines on the rear side was immediately reduced, and the speed of the sky ship slowed down.
This gave the coalition an opportunity.
“Angela, [Sventonet] is ready to launch.”
Pace gave instructions over the radio, and Angela Stroh’s somewhat lazy voice came from the other end:
“It has already been launched, half a minute early. That’s not too much, right?”
“You’re such a lunatic,” Pace curled his lips, “It doesn’t matter, there’s not much difference.”
When Pace heard the information from Achilles that Harry Smith had passed on, he immediately knew how to exploit the flaw in the front engine of the Eye of the Sky.
As long as those two engines are destroyed, no matter how powerful this “Condemnation-class” skyship is, it will inevitably need to reduce the output power of the rear engine to ensure the stability of the hull.
In this way, his relative speed will be much slower.
In this case, the mountain cannon [Sventonet] improved by Angela on the Wanren Mountain can completely hit the sky ship.
As long as it hits, it will be severely damaged immediately.
According to the report sent by Angela from Thebite, even if the Eye of the Sky did not crash, the huge damage to the hull would make it unusable in the next war.
This is an extremely critical breakthrough for the coalition forces.
“…”
Pace stared at the burning skyship. According to Harry’s intelligence, Achilles had penetrated the bridge of that thing, and now the control of the entire ship should be in Laplace’s hands.
He wanted to see how this false god who claimed to be on top of the Tower of Babel would respond.
Will he surrender? Or will this guy use the Tower of Babel in advance?
It’s unlikely. Laplace himself is still in the area of Gravel Hill-Aston Plain. It is very likely that the Tower of Babel will hurt him by mistake.
Just as Pace was waiting for Laplace’s countermeasures, a disturbance appeared from the distant sky.
Everyone on the [Armored Train] saw this scene—a huge azure ring appeared right in front of the [Eye in the Sky].
That means the Eye in the Sky is doing its best to prepare for the jump!
Laplace plays his cards!
This is very dangerous. Without the protection of the factor shield, the hull can be easily torn apart after entering the subspace rift. This is what Pace saw from the intelligence transmitted by Achilles.
Clearly, Laplace was gambling.
The jump ring will be ready soon. At this time, there is about half a minute left before the mountain cannon [Sventonet] arrives.
This time difference is difficult to make up.
Instinctively, Pace immediately ordered:
“fire!”
One after another, divine bombardment cannons were fired into the sky in an attempt to interfere with the escape of the Eye of the Sky, but to no avail.
At this moment, the perfect opportunity seemed to be about to slip away from the coalition forces.
……
“boom!”
The ship shook again, but it couldn’t shake Zu Chumen’s firm steps.
He looked down at Achilles. The [Steam Military Police] in front of him had a calm face, without any fear of impending death.
Inexplicably, Zu Chumen developed a strong interest:
“You know, the incident with the White Falcon dealt me a heavy blow… His willpower wasn’t strong enough, and even after becoming a black water corroded body, he was still very weak… So weak that even the Iron Lord could kill him…”
“I think you are perfect to be my new toy…”
Zu Chumen said, flicking his wrist, and a deep shadow gradually enveloped Achilles’ body.
Boundless darkness was pouring into his mouth and nose, gradually penetrating deeper and deeper, as if it was going to pierce into his brain.
At this moment, two streams of white gas suddenly spurted out from the steam armor.
“Pfft-“
The armor loosened, and Achilles instantly broke free from the restraints of the armor and rushed towards Zu Chumen——
“Pfft-“
Zu Chumen quickly turned his wrist, and the shadow pierced Achilles again, almost turning him into a hornet’s nest.
Black blood spurted out, but Achilles’ face still had no expression. He just stared at Zu Chumen silently, and his fist was just a step away from hitting him in the face.
“Your glory has long ended, I-Tran people,” Zu Chumen looked at the dying military police with disdain, “What a pity, you could have been a good specimen.”
After saying this, he turned his arm again, and the shadow turned into a vortex –
“Kacha!”
Achilles’ neck was broken, and his body stiffened. Instead of falling to the ground, he knelt on one knee like a knight being awarded a title.
Looking at his body, Zu Chumen rubbed his neck:
“What a ridiculous concept of honor and shame. That is the root cause of delaying your progress.”
He was about to push Achilles’ body to the ground when a faint sound of steam came.
“Pfft-“
Zu Chumen raised his head – in fact, everything happened when he raised his head. No matter how fast his reaction was, it could not outrun time, let alone the powerful awareness that a warrior had developed through long-term training.
The penultimate image that remained on Zu Chumen’s retina was the exposed redstone core of the steam armor and the arc that gradually exploded from the inside out – that was the steam armor’s self-destruction protocol.
The last picture was of Achilles kneeling in the red light, and at that moment, Zu Chumen seemed to see a grand coronation ceremony, in which the high-spirited prince placed his sword on the knight’s shoulder, asked him to wear steam armor, and join the great [Holy Temple]…
The rain in Yi Telan will never stop, but the people holding umbrellas will never fall down.
“boom–“
……
“boom–“
A muffled sound came from the direction of the skyship, and the attention of Pace and his companions was drawn to it. They were immediately extremely surprised.
——The skyship’s central engine exploded under a strong annihilation light.
The azure blue folding ring suddenly weakened a lot at this moment, and the speed of the Eye of the Sky suddenly became slower.
Why did it explode a second time? Pace frowned and stared at the helicarrier, as if he realized something.
Harry obviously realized the same thing as Pace, and he immediately called Achilles in an anxious tone:
“Master! Master! Are you okay? What’s going on over there! What happened!”
No one answered the voice channel, so Harry kept shouting:
“Master! Answer me now! If you don’t answer me, I will come looking for you! Do you hear me? You…”
Harry kept shouting, but he already had a vague idea of the answer in his heart – Achilles would never remain silent for no reason.
At this moment, Harry wanted to soar into the sky and rush into the collapsing skyship, even if it was just to get back the remains of his master.
However, the words that Achilles had repeated countless times once again floated in his ears:
“A soldier’s duty is to follow orders.”
He squatted down, took deep breaths repeatedly, and his fists wrapped in bronze armor made a “crunching” sound.
“Laplace…” He cried in a low voice, “I’ll put all this on your account…”
“…”
Pace observed a moment of silence for this [Steam Military Police] whom he had only met twice, and then he immediately turned his attention back to the battlefield in front of him:
“All units align to the skyship’s rear engines! Hold them!”
As long as the Eye of the Sky can be delayed and Sventonet’s artillery fire can completely destroy it, this war will be a complete advantage for the World Coalition.
At this moment, the gunner nearby let out a heart-wrenching cry:
“No! Lord! The factor energy readings are abnormal!”
Pace glanced at the dashboard and was surprised to find that the factor energy readings of the clouds above were increasing.
Then, two explosions were heard——
“Boom – boom -“
Two huge sky ships appeared on the left and right side of the [Eye of the Sky] and attacked towards the [Armored Train].
They were the Federation’s “Aston” and “Conquest”, two giant ships second only to the “Condemnation-class”.
They set out from Vizel’s skyship port and arrived at the front battlefield within half an hour.
Obviously, if the two sky ships launch an attack at the same time, the [Armored Train] will not be able to survive. Even if it can use the extended factor shield field to provide a certain degree of protection for the rails and itself, the firepower of the two sky ships is still too strong after all.
However, the time for [Sventornet] is almost up—
“Rumble–“
High in the sky, a series of huge-scale bullet rains were attacking the Eye in the Sky. Angela Stello aimed accurately and most of the artillery fire was about to fall on the Eye in the Sky.
The “Aston” and “Conquest” immediately began to use energy-saving machine guns to intercept the rain of bullets in the sky, but the effect was very limited.
Looking out from the ground perspective of Pace, it was like a meteor shower falling from the sky, hitting the hull of the [Eye of the Sky]——
“boom——“
The ship’s structure was torn apart by a powerful external force. For a moment, fragments of the giant ship, which symbolized the deterrent power of the Federation Skyship, were scattered and flames rose.
Pace sincerely hoped that this blow would send Laplace directly to hell, but he would not pin his hopes on such a probability:
“fire!”
One after another, [Divine Strike Cannon] blasted out from the [Armored Train], continuously attacking the [Eye in the Sky] from below.
At the same time, the Aston and Conquest also began to pour fire on the plains, sweeping the outline of the [Armored Train] with their energy cannons, causing the train’s body to shake violently –
“Boom!”
“My Lord! Carriage No. 8 has lost contact! We have lost a [God-strike Cannon]!” someone shouted.
“Keep firing!” Pace roared.
“No! It’s too late, it’s going to run away!”
Pace looked up at the sky and saw that the ring in front of the Eye of the Sky had completed its energy storage. A huge blue crack appeared, and the entire giant ship stretched inwards.
“boom–“
Laplace escapes!
Even if the Eye of the Sky escaped, it would be unlikely to be sent to the battlefield again, but at this moment, Pace and his team did not have to consider this issue.
There are two huge ships in the sky!
“Shift firepower! Aim at the Aston first!” Pace ordered loudly, “Even if we die, we will at least take down another skyship!”
“Why are you dying, instructor? We are here to cover you.”
A somewhat wild shout was heard. Pace was startled and immediately recognized the voice:
