Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1571: Chapter 890: Resurrection of the Son of God (Part 2)

Even uncontrollable ordinary Alpha-level psychics are like this, not to mention the controllable ones.

Gu Jing is a controllable one; strictly speaking, Meifenier doesn’t exactly use spiritual energy, but you can consider her as one.

The spiritual energy suppression effect brought by the black stone bracelet on their hands is actually like nothing; they can easily break through it.

Previously, not breaking through was just to give the Infinite Warriors some credit.

In urgent times, use it when needed, like the instance of rescuing Neili.

In reality, Meifenier doesn’t necessarily intend to watch Neili die.

After all, it has always been this Battle Group Leader from the Infinite Corps who opposed their rescue of the Son of God. If he dies, won’t…?

Definitely not.

It was Gu Jing who wanted her to help.

Neili cannot die.

If he dies, his replacement won’t readily agree to let aliens rescue the Father of Genetics.

Terriot could easily see how their capability to save yet not saving could likely push this Intelligence Director, originally on their side, to the opposite direction.

Moreover, the value of the Son of God certainly exceeds that of a Battle Group Leader, but reaching Neili’s level, he surely counts as a top-tier master among the divinely selected champions, not a cost that can be casually sacrificed or lost.

Taking a step back, the probability of tricking and killing Neili is very low. It’s hard to rely on sheer numbers to eliminate a master at a champion level without equal-level demons or Chaos traitors, and it would take a long time. Even if Meifenier doesn’t step in to save, Terriot wouldn’t stand by and let the Battle Group Leader struggle; he would certainly find time to rescue him.

It would be better to take the chance to slightly strengthen the relationship.

The facts proved that it was somewhat useful.

The dozen or so Infinite Warriors with the elite Auxiliary Army, who had been watching but not participating in the battle, naturally could observe Meifenier and Gu Jing releasing spiritual energy. But now that they were dealing with demons together and saved the Battle Group Leader, they wouldn’t be so ungrateful. Instead, they’d turn a blind eye.

As the battlefield grew more intense, and the defense line of the Infinite Warriors was further compressed backward, external reinforcements had arrived yet were blocked outside…

Under the stimulus of multiple anxieties, facing the prisoners’ repeated requests, Neili finally agreed to rearm them.

After lifting the suppression of the black stone anti-spiritual energy bracelet, the Mages among the Spirit Race freed their hands to attack. Especially Gu Jing and Meifenier, who could be considered Alpha-level Spiritual Masters; when they no longer held back and unleashed full firepower, the destructive force they could cause was terrifying.

Great Sage Kao’er was the same; when his large red robe spread out, revealing the enormous and strange mechanical body underneath and entering full battle status, he was a moving artillery platform and wartime factory, blasting demons to bits with various long-range firepower. Especially the terrifying solar flare rays, although slow in firing, each shot was a threat to a powerful demon.

The freed Black Cross Army, Judges, Battle Nuns, also served as strong supplements to combat troops.

The most powerful were Living Saint Estella, Sword Saint Rosemond of the Black Cross Army, and Grey Knights’ Grand Master Changding.

They were all champion-level divine selection forces.

As for Marshal Xi Rui and the other two Grey Knights’ Grand Masters, they were all top tier among Battle Group Champion levels, close enough to count as divine selection champions, even if somewhat weaker.

They were the ones who survived the terrifying Cartier campaign, were pursued across the nether realm by demons for two months with minimal losses, and when escaping at the last moment, were able to fend off a top Divine Sovereign Demon like Shakeqi.

This lineup probably exceeded the level of the Omeglia Campaign, where the Alliance besieged and killed the Ork Kings’ Bone Shards.

With their involvement, the battle situation immediately stabilized.

For a moment, they even considered organizing a counterattack, to see if they could meet up with external reinforcements and then reseal the subspace fissures.

However, this did not succeed.

The number of incoming demons and Chaos Starfield Warriors was just too overwhelming.

They were now somewhat secure but had difficulty breaking out.

When several Chaos champions appeared on the battlefield, along with two Bloodthirsty Demons and two Great Unclean Ones, the situation changed again.

Quickly, a Chaos champion was slain, a Great Demon was driven away, but achieving this came at a cost.

More Interstellar Warriors perished; one Grey Knights’ Grand Master, and Marshal Xi Rui were both badly injured.

Originally relieved with the ’guests’ joining the battle, Neili was again worried.

He had no immediate solution to the current predicament.

What should be done?

Thinking about it, it seemed that the only approach was to endure the current situation, and continuously dispatch external troops to relieve the Divine Successor Hall.

But there was a problem: Super Sea Star was heavily pressured across many places, reinforcement from outside the planet, from 500 worlds of the Infinite Starfield, were being intercepted outside, unable to break through promptly.

When demons were aggressively expanding the subspace fissures and forcing their way in, could they really gather enough troops to completely annihilate all demons here?

Calm assessment indicated it might be difficult.

So… should they indeed use Colossal Cannons, Light Spears, or missiles, the likes of ultra-large caliber weapons, to bombard the area?

The efficiency would be sufficient; to cover and bombard a few rounds, then elite forces could charge forward, having a fairly high chance of physically resealing the subspace fissures. Even if they couldn’t close it, as long as they constantly poured firepower into the fissures, the coming would perish endlessly.

Even if the sealing action failed, it would just mean withdrawing, then having the warship guns bombard again, and preparing for the next wave of attack would suffice.

However, the sole issue was that the Son of God might be caught in the friendly fire.

Too close, with high-powered weapons, the explosive range is massive. Even the slightest chance of damaging the static field is something he cannot afford.

If it truly becomes unfeasible, consideration must be given to whether it’s possible to carry the static field and the Son of God away first, then proceed with the bombardment.

Without the Son of God, though still valuable, the Divine Successor Hall is just an expensively built religious building, and can allow for war concessions.

With these thoughts, Neili’s gaze turned to where the Son of God was, pondering how to transfer with the static field together.

Next, he saw Meifenier and Great Sage Kao’er approaching the Son of God.

Neili immediately understood what they intended to do, and instantly turned furious!

But right now he was a bit far away, and since he was leading the fight up front, he was surrounded by enemies, making it difficult to approach quickly.

He could only roar, “What are you doing?! Stop right there! Dastardly alien Wizards, dare to move a finger, and I swear I’ll crush your heads, even if I must chase you across the whole universe!”

Neili’s Blast Bomb Gun still had Plague Fly mucus residue when he saw the Spirit Race’s Divine Envoy’s garment sweep over the control console beneath the splendid carvings.

Meifenier ignored the Battle Group Leader’s threat. Her fingertip Bone Shard Runes emitted emerald light, seeming to be accumulating something.

Kao’er’s Mechanical Tentacles were connected to a huge device, slowly revealing its true self—the complete set of Destiny Armor becoming visible to all.

“Terriot, stop them quickly!”

Neili commanded the Intelligence Director while raising his hand, with mounted artillery under the powered fist, aiming to fire at the alien Wizards.

The shell was just about to be fired, but was hit precisely by lightning mid-air, exploding and shattering unfortunate Demon souls.

This was Gu Jing’s action.

He urged, “They’ve already started, they can’t be stopped now; believe in them for once. Now, we need a Son of God to save us, the entire Empire needs him.”

Neili ignored the persuasion, tearing apart a Bloodletter that came before him, continuing to order the Intelligence Director to use spiritual power to stop their ’plot’ against the Father of Genetics.

But Terriot refused and began urging the Battle Group Leader as well.

The Great Sage’s mechanical voice mingled with Martian binary hymns, “The Life Support Protocol has been activated completely.”
