Chapter 1498 Interlude: Waiting for the Reappearance of Past Peaks
The light in her pale gold eyes was cold, and her exquisite face exuded a breathtaking majesty.
No longer in a state of unbearable burden, she now exudes a complete and breathtaking power, her figure radiating the full glory of her past peak, clad in a magnificent adult gown.
Behind her, the massive mech unleashed a shocking surge of energy, its armor surface glowing with an unprecedented, surging, eerie light.
They found their master, who possessed all the power.
'Night Wanderer' is fully activated, like a mechanical angel descending from a higher dimension!
Seeing this scene, his dark eyes widened in astonishment. He had just recovered from the barrage of attacks and was still reeling from Ling's questioning.
I finally understand why she suddenly did this, but even understanding the reason, I still find it hard to accept.
hum ---
The mecha's surging energy created a shockwave. Fang Ran stood on the wasteland, his black hair and clothes flying wildly as he gazed at the dark sky, at the ultimate power that seemed to have fully awakened.
They even used the term "night stroll," which is definitely not a simple test.
He didn't understand why Ling had suddenly put him through this ordeal, but in any case, he couldn't muster the strength to fight her head-on.
Fang Ran raised his hand to shield himself from the aftershocks of the shockwave, his dark eyes filled with urgent confusion as he looked loudly at the figure:
"Ling! Wait a minute. We can talk first!"
But he ignored the youth's words, hovering before the colossal, intricate chest of ultimate power.
The adult figure with light golden hair simply raised a hand, his posture like a conductor drawing back the curtain on a battle.
Behind the magnificent 'Night Wanderer', hundreds of meters high, a weapon, like a feather, detached from its base from a massive mechanical wing composed of giant armor.
As the cold, metallic mass, tens of meters long, rumbled and deformed, the dark blue track unfolded layer by layer into a massive, destructive cannon muzzle.
【Item No. 14 - Psionic Orbital Cluster Cannon】!
A massive, eerie blue beam of light roared through the air as it shot towards him. Before Fang Ran could finish speaking, his dark eyes narrowed, and he instantly erected a shield of light, dodging to the side.
The next instant, the massive beam of light grazed past him and shattered the time barrier!
The destructive psionic torrent instantly plowed through several kilometers of scorched wasteland. Unable to completely evade it, and before Fang Ran could even land from the aftershocks, one of the first ten weapons mounted on the mech began to hum and activate.
A deep, eerie light gleamed from the chest of the massive, black mecha, its powerful aura sweeping across the battlefield like the presence of some unknown entity.
【Number 10 - Sky Eye Surveillancer】!
At the same time, two mechanically armed 'feathers' with vastly different structures extended simultaneously with a clanging sound.
The upper layer unfolded and lit up, its dark blue light shining like a key opening a portal. One after another, falcon-like floating mechs swarmed out like bees.
The lower section features rows of hatches that open, and as the ion sparks within the launch nest flash, the exhaust plumes of dozens of cone-shaped machines intertwine to form a network, breaking the sound barrier.
【Item No. 16 - Three-Dimensional Floating Machine Falcon】!
【Item No. 13 - Biological Deadlock Ion Light Cone】!
The moment the three futuristic weapons activated simultaneously, the Sky Eye instantly locked onto Fang Ran's location, and the floating mechs launched their attack in sync with his coordinates.
Faster and more powerful than the floating sequence, the swarming aircraft unleashed a rain of eerie blue light. Some of the aircraft expanded to interfere with humans, while others lit up with self-destructing red lights.
Having just escaped the aftershocks, Fang Ran had no time to think before re-establishing his light barrier and taking flight. Suddenly, he felt a buzzing, dizzying wave of energy...
Boom boom boom boom——
One after another, suicide bombers crashed into the [Shield] light barrier, but there was no time to deal with it. The ion light cones were already hurtling through the air in the black eyes' vision. They twisted their bodies again, trying to detonate them in advance.
Then, as the light cone struck by the black light transformed into a phantom, Fang Ran's gaze froze for a moment. In that instant, the illusory falcon that had been spreading out nearby appeared.
The next second, dozens of ion beam cones, trailing trails of flame like spiraling, closed petals, hurtled toward him!
At the critical moment, a card shone brightly from the groove of the silver dragon's spine.
A massive white shockwave sphere deflected all attacks in the dark sky, but in that very instant, several kilometers away, a weapon on the top of a colossal mech switched its magazine and launched a deafening attack.
Then, just as he broke through the blockade and rushed back to the ground, Fang Ran suddenly saw a metal sphere not far away.
Crystal annihilation device, inductive chip, psionic fusion nucleus, micro-particle generator, energy excitation.
His right pupil gleamed with golden light as a flood of information rushed into his mind. A tremendous sense of crisis surged through him, and Fang Ran's eyes widened as he unhesitatingly swung his Silver Dragon Fang.
[Number 19 - Geological Annihilation Particle]!
A massive sphere of psionic flame exploded on the wasteland and then expanded rapidly!
A nearly 100-meter-long sphere of light roared through the air, annihilating everything it touched. At that moment, a red ribbon appeared high in the distance, looping around the crater. Fang Ran, his chest heaving, watched as a huge circular crater appeared on the wasteland, as if a piece had been scooped out.
I had witnessed the power of 'Night Wanderers' back in the Arctic, but I never imagined that one day I would face them myself, let alone personally experience the situation that Zero Riders were in.
Only then did he truly understand just how intense this powerful sense of oppression was.
Above the dark sky, hovering before the colossal 'Night Wanderer,' unlike the hardships of the Arctic, his soul, having merged with his body and returned to his peak, calmly and normally powered various futuristic weapons.
The powerful, icy beauty watched the young man who had narrowly escaped, her clear, cold voice traveling through the system across a distance of over ten kilometers:
"Is this already starting to get tough? You must have faced more than this level of attack when you faced the first pillar. Let me see what you can do."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and waved it. Amidst the shimmering light of the enormous 'feather,' even more mechanical falcons poured out from the portal.
Countless floating mechs once again swarmed towards the youth, but Fang Ran, holding up a spherical light barrier to withstand the relentless attacks, flew through the dark sky, his burning clothes trailing behind him.
"Ling! We don't necessarily need to use this!"
He kept dodging and tried to speak again, but it was as if he didn't hear the young man's words.
The figure in the platinum gown simply continued her calm and relentless questioning:
"If that's all there is to it, then it's just superficial strength, this immature power,"
"How are you going to realize your naive wish?"
A relentless barrage of attacks from enemy aircraft blocked the sky, and Fang Ran's dark figure hurtled through the storm like a night crow.
The combined attack of various forms of mechanical falcons—Light Falcon, Wave Falcon, Burning Falcon, and Phantom Falcon—was simply too troublesome. Gradually forced into a corner with nowhere to escape, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and activate the [Thunder Card], flicking the blade.
But as a massive bolt of lightning shot straight into the dark sky, some of the shield falcons along its path opened their shields to weaken and neutralize it!
The attack failed to create an opening, and Fang Ran, now trapped in a blind spot, had no choice but to reactivate the tether loop, but it seemed that he could no longer simply dodge.
Behind the exquisite and awe-inspiring figure, a spatial fluctuation condensed as the enormous and magnificent 'Night Wanderer' mecha shone with a deep light!
【Number 5 - Spatial Singularity Mechanism】!
Like a singularity disrupting the surrounding space, the [Wheel Card] suddenly malfunctioned, causing Fang Ran's gaze to momentarily falter. Then, in that instant, he saw rows of ion light cones rushing down from above.
Trapped in a dead end, he could only forcefully withstand all attacks. Cracks spread across the light barrier, and the immense impact slammed him violently into the ground.
The next second, Fang Ran's dark eyes narrowed as he suddenly saw...
One, two, three, four—more than one [geological annihilation particle] appeared below!
boom----!
As several giant orbs of light merged on the wasteland, they unleashed a powerful light barrier. After barely managing to block the explosion, he fell into a crater formed by several giant orbs!
"And have you ever considered that you've only saved the surface? What are the real roots of those events and misfortunes? You're only twenty years old, and you've only been awakened for less than a year. How much can you possibly know?"
"As long as the root cause remains, those things will repeat themselves. Everything you've done is in vain." Seeing him fall into the deep pit in the wasteland, the figure with light golden hair raised a hand, her voice even colder.
The psionic railguns, tens of meters long, roared and lit up, while countless hovercraft falcons gleamed eerily in the dark sky as both powerful weapons began charging simultaneously.
Giant beams of light and countless showers of light shot into the deep crater in the wasteland, illuminating the entire dark sky like a divine judgment!
In that instant, watching destruction descend from the sky, and confirming that it exceeded the limits of the [Shield], with nowhere to hide in the deep pit, Fang Ran could only take a deep breath as a massive wave of magical energy erupted from his body.
His dark eyes opened and boiled, lines appeared at the corners of his eyes, and the King of Gods was completely liberated as the burning hem of his robe spread!
The light barrier and the night artifact together blocked the energy destruction, forcibly breaking out of the wasteland crater. With the night artifact unleashed and the [Drive Card]'s super-high speed,
The dark, powerful figure instantly broke free from the encirclement of all firepower!
At this moment, watching the young man's figure burst forth from the pillar of light with a deafening roar, there was no surprise in his powerful display of unleashing his Night Weapon. His refined face exuded an air of majesty, his eyes coldly surveying the scene.
The adult Ling now only had a sharper, more incisive tone in her voice:
"You can save a day from an accident, but what about tomorrow? The day after? Are you going to keep meddling in other people's business every time something happens?"
"Where does this wish end? Until the moment you run out of strength and are completely crushed?"
A single starlight shone brightly in the dark sky. Amidst the youth's departure of the swarm of aircraft's light cones, it arced upwards in an instant, and then, just as Fang Ran was somewhat lost in thought listening to Ling's words,...
A night-covered mech several meters tall swung its mechanical greatsword at him, the psionic light blade colliding with the silver-white dragon spine, creating a shockwave of light fragments!
The mechanical, single-winged humanoid resembled a higher-level, autonomously driven Night Star Falcon, an elite individual within the fleet powerful enough to intercept it. Silver Dragon Fang repelled this Night Star Falcon.
Fang Ran watched as its single wing rotated behind it, forming a light barrier shield on its left hand, and manipulated the surrounding mechanical falcons to integrate into the weapons and specialize them into corresponding forms.
In his dark eyes, burning with light, he saw two more aircraft appear, each transformed into a different form. The [Illusion Card] activated, and his figure, wreathed in black flames, vanished in a flash.
But as if to prove that escape was useless, the majestic 'Night Wanderer' body emanated a blue light that expanded and rippled!
【Number 6 - Photon Radar Spreading Radar】!
Matter, energy—all battlefield information was collected in an instant. The Sky Eye synchronized and locked onto the location. A [Night Star Falcon] roared as it swooped down, its anti-human interference shield slamming into Fang Ran's figure.
At that moment, Silver Dragon Fang pressed against the mech's light shield. Before Fang Ran could be forced back again, another Star Falcon slashed down with its greatsword and fired, shooting him down!
In the instant that they were held back, the combined firepower of the machine squadron and the light cones returned, and the psionic railguns once again roared down from the dark sky, unleashing annihilation particles once more.
Amidst the roaring storms on both sides, a colossal pillar of light, a rain of light, and a giant sphere of ghostly flames, Fang Ran's black-haired figure transformed into a streak of light across the wasteland.
Then, as the massive single wing unfolded once more, a blazing red beam of light crashed down directly in front of him, unleashing a wave of molten heat!
【Number 12 - Thermal Convection Pulse】!
"And for that futile and endless wish, you risked everything, putting yourself in dire straits. In those rescues, did you ever consider your own place?"
Have you ever thought about the day you yourself will die?!
His tone rose, his icy voice quickened, and his pale gold eyes flickered involuntarily at the end.
In that instant, the young man turned to one side before the thermal pulse, his tall figure suddenly raising his hand in front of 'Night Wanderer,' the giant thermal cannon swaying like a blade with the movement of his arm.
The blazing red beam of light followed the dark trajectory, flashing across the wasteland like a cake knife in the energy wind!
Amidst this deafening roar, a tactical psionic fusion bomb was loaded and launched within the azure orbit. After rapidly changing course while skimming past the blazing red beam of light, the dark blue missile could be seen in the distance.
In that instant, an unprecedented sense of crisis erupted, and Fang Ran's right eye suddenly shone with brilliant gold as he shouted:
"!"
boom------!
An extremely deep blue sphere evaporated its surroundings, violently expanded to its limit, and then exploded into a towering pillar of destructive light!
Amidst the destructive energy turbulence, Fang Ran braced himself against the runic light barrier in front of him with one hand. As his black hair and the golden patterns on his robes billowed backward, his figure was sent flying backward through the light and wind!
Gazing at the pillar of light rising from the distant wasteland, and confirming that the young man's reaction was still present, the crack in her heart widened, and her usually cold voice turned angry.
Ling, now an adult, gritted her teeth and uttered her final question:
"If that's really the case, what about your parents, your friends, and everyone in this world who cares about you?"
Have you ever thought about how they would feel?!
Now that they were out of the blast radius, Fang Ran couldn't help but cough and exhale.
Although they had been in a spirit state before, a technologist's strength still depends on the weaponry they possess, and research and development have not ceased for the past thirty years.
Therefore, once you return to your peak condition, you will only be stronger than you were in the past.
Facing Ling at her peak, he deeply realized this, truly feeling just how powerful that girl was.
But compared to the fierce offensive that had just begun, her words made Fang Ran feel more shaken.
Each question was like the sharpest needle, piercing the very core of his desires. But compared to pondering the answers to these questions,
Thinking more about Ling, who was now questioning him, Fang Ran's dark eyes suddenly flickered with a sense of unease.
The Queen of the past, the stranger, the one I've only known for a day.
A vague guess suddenly surfaced in his mind.
In that instant, looking at the 'Youye' who had shrunk to the size of a human figure in the distance, he couldn't use words to make the other party stop. Listening to those words, he also knew that he could no longer hide like this.
There's only one way to get the other party to stop.
Fang Ran closed his dark eyes, took a deep breath as if preparing for something, and then opened his eyes again to see the boiling flames...
The bow of the Moon Goddess Hunting Fairy appeared in his hand.
The night weapon was raised high, and a surge of immense magical energy erupted, causing the ground beneath its feet to shatter like a spiderweb. The intense energy stirred up a miniature storm in the dark wasteland.
The massive, moon-white bow was unleashed, and the black flames on the back of the jet-black youth, along with the golden runes, were propelled into the air.
As the black light swirled wildly in the wind, his right eye, a blazing gold flame, rose up.
Nature, hunting, harvest, death… one by one, symbols of divine authority shone on the massive bow, the moon's radiant glow merrily coalescing into the secondary strings.
In the instant that they all surged into that magically glowing arrow,
On the dark wasteland,
Aiming at 'Night Wanderer' dozens of kilometers away, he drew back the gleaming twelve-tiered Moon Goddess Bow!
Because I wanted to try to finish writing this last part all at once, I kept putting it off until the end of the month. Luckily, there's still one day left. The past week has been like hell. (I really like the emotional outbursts during battles in anime. I love how, in those gorgeous and cool battles, both sides express their emotions through their words. I always feel that it would be better if this or that part were produced better, but when I tried to write it down, I found it was really difficult.)
