Chapter 2675: Final Wish (2/2)
Normally, this procedure was madness, but this was different! Their minds were already wiped out, leaving Ghanso with a clean slate.
Not only that, the expert pilot also felt as if his new slave welcomed his embrace. As the mech pilots loyal to Master Huron, each of them hoped that Venerable Ghanso would be able to make use of them to take revenge on their killers!
Venerable Ghanso was under incredible pressure! Even with the lack of resistance from his new slaves, he had never controlled so many mechs at once! It took all of his willpower to remain cognizant of the situation!
”Go.. forward! Advance! I can't hold this state for too long!”
The other expert mechs had been waiting for this. The resurrected Bloody Heron mechs immediately assisted the expert mechs and helped them break through the blockade!
Even though the Bloody Heron mechs were being sliced by swords, stabbed by spears, shot by rifles and bombarded by artillery cannons, they still managed to do their jobs!
Ghanso displayed a much greater degree of control and multi-tasking than ever before as his surging force of will raised his capabilities as a master to an unprecedented degree!
”Hahaha! You can't stop us, Ves! My army is already dead!” Ghanso maniacally laughed as he forcefully drove the undead Bloody Heron mechs forward.
Since their mech pilots were already dead, Venerable Ghanso had no qualms about using them to launch his-risk attacks and trade blows for blows. The expeditionary forces could not handle the ferocious fighting style displayed by the resurrected mechs!
”We've created an opening!” The mech pilot of the Ulver Quinn yelled. ”Get through before it closes! We'll stall the remaining opponents here. Don't let our comrades die in vain!”
The other expert mechs did not delay. They passed through while the Ulver Quinn and the Prava Lonestar desperately attempted to black as many enemy mechs as possible.
It wasn't enough!
Hundreds of mechs still chased after the remainder. They attacked the unnaturally-controlled Bloody Heron mechs from behind while the artillery mechs inside the expeditionary fleet attacked from the front.
The 4 remaining expert mechs were surrounded by the zombie machines, protecting their damaged frames and conserving their power for the final effort that was needed to complete their mission.
”There are too many enemies chasing behind our heels! We'll go and help out the other two! Take care and finish the job!”
The two additional Fridayman mechs purposefully moved out of the protective envelope and began their epic struggle to hold back the enemies that were trying to stop the final attack run.
One expert mech crashed into the formation of Valkyrie Redeemers. The weakened Penitent Sisters weren't able to contend against the power machine and tried to spread out as much as possible, but all of that took time!
”No! Don't let them go forward! Kill them before they get close!”
Every single member of the Golden Skull Alliance feared what the Charlemagne and the Jeanne D'Arc might do once they reached their destination.
Not a single ship wanted to fly next to a hostile expert mech!
Fortunately, the Larkinson Clan recognized the threat and formed a response.
While the Fridayman expert mechs were fighting past their opposition, the Valkyrie Prime had quietly fallen back and linked up with another group of Valkyrie mechs.
This time, Venerable Joshua no longer flew with the exhausted Penitent Sisters. His prime mech had joined up with the surviving Valkyrie Interceptors and Valkyrie Hurricanes piloted by the Glory Seekers!
”Are you ready?”
”We are at your disposal, boy.” Mech Captain Serena Valeis answered on behalf of her fellow Hexers. ”Please lead us to victory. We are all willing to lend our power to you. Let the Superior Mother punish these wicked enemies of the Hegemony once again!”
”Then do what I have just said and pray!” Joshua quickly instructed.
As the Glory Seekers tried their best to evoke the same phenomenon that the Penitent Sisters had previously accomplished, the Fridaymen all recognized the threat.
Venerable Ghanso's eyes burned as he spotted a very familiar formation mechs doing something very shady in front.
”I WON'T LET YOU FINISH!”
The Charlemagne and the ranged Bloody Heron mechs immediately opened fire on the Valkyrie Prime, causing the mech to be blown back while interrupting Joshua's concentration!
Yet before the mechs under Ghanso's control could get more hits in, some of the Glory Seeker pilots deliberately stopped praying and instead piloted their mechs protectively in front of the Valkyrie Prime!
”Go on! Do not hold back! We'll cover for you all!” They called.
Even though Valkyrie mechs were dropping at a worrying rate, they succeeded in buying enough time.
Since this was their first time, the Glory Seeker pilots needed a longer time than normal to connect to the battle network. Yet they eventually got the knack and managed to connect to the crown of the Superior Mother.
Their Valkyrie mechs activated their bonds as well.
In just half a minute, the Glory Seeker mechs was beginning to fly forward while adopting a V formation that sent chills through the spines of the Fridaymen taking part in the battle.
The deep strike fleet carriers were already altering their course to the side as a precaution!
The energy silhouette of the Superior Mother had manifested yet again. The weakened but still vigorous prime resonance generated by Venerable Joshua even surrounded it with an eerie green corona!
”The Superior Mother has descended once again!”
Despite facing a god-like figure, neither Venerable Ghanso and Venerable Foster despaired. Instead, they burned with greater determination than ever before.
Mortals may fear the power of gods, but demigods like them were not afraid of facing it head-on. Their will did not allow them to falter at this critical time!
The Jeanne D'Arc pointed the tip of its sword against the giant projection of the Superior Mother.
”I am not afraid!”
