Chapter 497 Battle of Noriosse 3 (1/2)
All the pedestrians in the sealed region were sent out, and they gathered outside the protective shield to watch the battle. Alvin and Ember, with one running and the other chasing, had long left the region and were not locked in the protective shield.
Even more Public Security Squads waited outside the protective shield, and there were at least a thousand aircrafts. The Protector who had been hired by the financial group was also inside the protective shield, monitoring the battle from the sidelines without any intention of interfering.
Upon witnessing such a scene, the expressions of the DarkStar warriors and mercenaries changed. They felt as though they were being locked up in a cage.
”They locked down the region? It seems like we created too much chaos.”
Anur's eyes narrowed. With such a big commotion created, they would not be able to stay on Noriosse for too long. The moment that Alvin died, they would have to retreat from Noriosse immediately. The DarkStar fleet was already waiting for orders outside the atmosphere and was ready to aid them at any time. Would they end up in conflict with Noriosse's fleet? However, that was nothing to be afraid of.
Anur then thought of the embarrassing result that Ember had produced a few days ago.
It is probably best for me to stay behind and delay the enemies. Ember has already failed once, and I doubt he will be able to deal with the combined attacks of Black Star and Nagakin. When the battle ends, it will also be easier for me to leave this place, and I am virtually undefeatable with my speed.
On the other side, the appearance of the protective shield made Han Xiao worry.
While the lockdown of the region seemed to be restricting Anur's movement range, it was actually extremely disadvantageous to them. It was as good of freeing Anur from his wariness.
In the locked region, Anur could unleash all of his strength without any restraint and turn the entire region into a cyclone of destruction!
Furthermore, the protective shield separated them from the passersby, and Han Xiao's plan to make use of Anur's destructive force to drag them in could not be accomplished.
Boom!
With just a slight moment of distraction, the wind pressure cannon smashed into his chest. His armor was immediately dented, and Han Xiao was sent flying.
The situation is extremely bad. I wonder how my officers are doing.
…
Far away from the center of the battlefield. Feidin and Sylvia were retreating from the battlefield. They had originally been hiding somewhere nearby, but as the battlefield expanded, they had no choice but to change their location in order to prevent themselves from being spotted by the enemy.
”Let… let go of me! I want to go back and help!”
Sylvia's tone was anxious, and her face had turned red from exerting too much strength. She was trying to break free from Feidin's grip.
Feidin held onto Sylvia's wrist tightly and dragged her along with a sigh. ”Stop being a fool. You won't be of any help, and any one of the enemies will be able to kill you. Can't you see the battle in the sky? As long as you get dragged into that cyclone, you are dead for sure.”
”I…” Sylvia did not have anything to say in response. After a while, she said angrily, ”But you can help them!”
”I don't wish to be involved in your mercenary group's mission. This matter has nothing to do with me.” Feidin shook his head.
Sylvia was furious and she bit down on Feidin's hands, hoping that he would let go.
Feidin squirmed in pain, and he looked down at his bleeding hand. With a sigh, he said, ”No matter what you say, I will not allow you to charge into your death.”
Right at that moment, footsteps could be heard from in front, and a DarkStar member blocked their path.
”Ah, two lost fish who escaped the net.”
Sinesa sneered coldly. She had just gotten rid of a hired Grade B mercenary and noticed some movement. Thus, she had decided to block their path.
Feidin and Sylvia's faces blanched.
Sylvia immediately took out her alloy sword, and her hands began to tremble. While she wanted to control her hands from trembling, in the face of a Grade B Super, a Grade D Super like her felt an instinctive sense of fear.
At that moment, Feidin pushed Sylvia behind him.
”Run away quickly. I will block her.”
Feidin's tone was calm.
Hu!
A formless pressure then gushed toward the both of them and interrupted the words that were about to come out from Sylvia's mouth.
Feidin opened his mouth, and music drifted out. His psychic energy formed a shield to protect the both of them, but it was quickly shattered the next moment. The two of them were sent flying and collapsed onto the ground.
”Only Grade C?”
