By this time, the children had already been transferred using the emergency-activated passageway.

However, just as this fighter was effortlessly soloing the Chitauri Aerial Squad, a strong sense of vigilance crept into his mind.

Tifa instinctively looked up and was shocked to see the bio-warship, which had devoured seawater to repair itself, spewing out thick beams of light from its mouth, its target being herself, who was being entangled by the Chitauri squad.

"Get out of the way!"

At that moment, Sister-in-law Sera, seemed to sense something and immediately rushed out of the Seventh Heaven Bar, her body radiating a dazzling crystal light.

Under the radiant light, everything around seemed to slow down, and Tifa, with her exceptionally clear mind, could even sense the trajectory of the star whale beam above.

The female fighter immediately kicked away the Chitauri aircraft on her left, her delicate body flipping in mid-air, seemingly slowly but actually quickly pulling herself out of the range of the beam of light.

"Boom!"

As Tifa landed, a violent explosion rang out simultaneously. Without thinking, the girl immediately grabbed Sera, tackled her to the ground, and rolled on the spot.

Once the shockwave subsided, the two got up and looked back. They saw that a crater about a hundred meters in diameter had been melted into the vicinity of the pavilion that had been hit by the Star Whale Beam Weapon.

"Sera, shouldn't you be taking refuge underground? Why are you still here?"

Tifa leaned against a charred wall behind Sera, her brow furrowed slightly.

"Hehe, I didn't go into the underground shelter with the group; I've been hiding in the bar's warehouse lately..."

Sera looked back at the iconic buildings on Midgar Street, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

"This bar was a collaborative effort, and I can't bear to see it destroyed like this..."

Immediately, seeing that Tifa seemed worried, the girl with pink hair and a side ponytail patted her chest, her expression serious.

"Don't worry, it's just that my sister is overly protective of me. I can help, but I'm not that delicate!"

In fact, the Fallon sisters both appear to be awakened beings of the Eternal Race bloodline, with Thunder possessing powerful Valkyrie strength.

After recovering from Crystallization Sickness, Sera gradually activated her special ability—the Time-Warrior—which allows her to briefly foresee the future.

That's why Tifa's sister-in-law, who had a premonition of something, was able to provide timely assistance and help her escape the predicament.

"Alright, stay close to me and don't wander off!"

"If something happens to you, even if the bar survives, your sister will definitely tear it down afterwards!"

Tifa smiled and whispered, seeing that things had come to this point, she could only repeatedly remind him to temporarily team up with Sera to hunt down the alien invaders on the edge.

The girl, who had long been sheltered under her older sister's wing, nodded excitedly, overjoyed, and couldn't resist hugging Tifa's cheek and giving her a kiss.

But every time Sera relaxed for a while, the blurry images that vaguely appeared in her mind would suddenly change her expression.

"Sister Tifa! Gladiators from Sakaar at 6 o'clock, 9 o'clock, and 12 o'clock! They're approaching at high speed!"

"Two silver medalists leading the team, and one gold medalist—it's very dangerous!"

According to publicly available data synchronized with the Dark Dimension Information Network, the gladiators on Sakaar, at the champion level, are roughly at the level of a chief god.

The gold, silver, and bronze medal levels below that basically correspond to the three stages of True God, King, and Lord.

In other words, there is an alien god on the other side who has his eye on them!

Tifa's heart tightened upon hearing this, and a solemn expression appeared on her face. Some kind of power within her stirred, and the phantom of a black wing appeared faintly behind her.

Chapter 927, Section 969: Kevin, the Progenitor Tool Person

"Boom!"

With a muffled explosion, the crumbling wall where Tifa and the other were hiding shattered into pieces. The female fighter grabbed Sera beside her and retreated hastily.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a red-skinned gladiator with bulging muscles strode forward, twisting his neck and chuckling menacingly. His aggressive gaze seemed to be sizing up his two prey.

"Pretty girls? Two!"

Tifa glanced around out of the corner of her eye and saw two figures blocking her retreat path, one on her left and one on her right.

"Up!"

When the three sides closed in to a certain distance, the gladiators of Sakaar suddenly attacked. Sera, who had anticipated their movements, immediately panicked and anxiously warned them.

Upon hearing this, Tifa bent her knees and leaped into the air. The three figures who had missed their combined attack immediately jumped up and followed closely behind.

Among them, the most robust gold medalist took the lead, standing high above Tifa as she ascended into the air.

However, at the moment the female fighter used the momentum to rise to the apex of the arc, she threw Sera away with a soft force.

Immediately, the yellow, red, blue, and cyan light surrounding Tifa formed a powerful vortex, and the power of the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water converged and surged in the instant her body spun around.

The ferocious power that was so disproportionate to his slender physique forced the aggressive gold medal gladiator to raise his arms and cover his head in a desperate defense under the barrage of punches and kicks.

Ultimately, prolonged defense inevitably leads to defeat. With a crisp cracking sound, the burly man with bent arms crashed to the ground like a meteor, his body covered in bruises.

Good, let's temporarily eliminate this biggest threat!

Tifa secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Several years ago, her own strength was indeed limited, but as she had more contact with Thunder and others, coupled with the things that Sumire Muroto sent her, her strength improved.

A certain shackle within this female fighter seems to have been broken by the interaction of forces and circumstances, resulting in a rapid improvement in her combat skills.

Furthermore, due to the Jenova Advent event, the Earth's Great Source was injected into the land and air in Tokyo in an almost extravagant manner.

The more Tifa came into contact with the energy, the more she discovered her ability to control the four forms of the Great Source, and she used this as an opportunity to incorporate it into her fighting techniques.

Therefore, [Falcon Dive], which harnesses the wind element to create a deadly cutting effect, [Moonfall Kick], which controls the water element to enhance kicks, and [Meteor Collision], a finishing move that combines fire and earth from the four elements of "earth, fire, water, and wind", were all created one after another.

According to the Dark Dimension database, humans are hybrid descendants of the Eternal Race, and some of them can unlock their true potential by chance.

Perhaps, she, Sera, and the Thunder are all outstanding individuals in terms of bloodline inheritance.

As the female fighter's thoughts shifted, the two silver-medal gladiators behind her leaped up and attacked Tifa while she was exhausted of her old strength and had not yet generated new strength.

However, the figure that should have been falling rapidly suddenly stopped when it had nowhere to grab its weight, twisted its body sharply, and accelerated toward an attacker behind it.

Tifa gripped her opponent's wrists with both hands in a lock-like motion, then stretched her slender waist into an exaggerated arc, using her superb throwing skills to hurle the attacker, sending him flying into the air.

After the three landed, the gladiators were astonished to find that the female fighter was silently floating in the air, with a pair of magnificent black wings extending from her back.

The fact that we were able to defeat our opponent so quickly is largely thanks to Sumire Muroto's Gene Serum.

To prevent anyone from having an unexplained number of offspring, Schrodinger Company's early Angel Project has been discontinued.

Those naturalized special forces soldiers, due to their various shortcomings, were used cautiously by Lufus.

But there are always exceptions. The mad scientist Sumire Muroto, who developed the 787 Mechanized Unit, was not one to stay put.

Furthermore, Tifa herself felt increasingly powerless in the face of disaster, and therefore secretly pleaded with Sumire Muroto many times.

Therefore, in the aftermath of Jenova's arrival, a certain necrophiliac with a twisted sense of humor used the genetic material of the [Progenitor Tool Person] Kevin, along with Sephiroth's feather, mixed with Tifa's blood to create a masterpiece.

Tifa has a very soft heart; she wants to protect the bar, the children, and her friends.

Although the female fighter knew she might develop symptoms of a degraded angel like Shinra Special Forces, she still used the item without hesitation.

Ultimately, the process was thrilling but without serious harm.

Her compatibility with this thing was perfect; she could be considered the most qualified successor besides Sephiroth, and thus gradually advanced to the level of a god.

Furthermore, the Herrscher power within Kevin's genetic material greatly inspired and helped Tifa in integrating elemental power into her fighting techniques.

However, Tifa rarely revealed these things to Kevin, so even her closest sisters, the Fallon, were unaware of the female fighter's private efforts to improve.

The perceptive Tifa understood that there were many people stronger than herself.

Kevin wanted to stay by her side not because of strength or weakness, but simply because he craved the warmth and affection that comes with being together.

Therefore, I will carefully safeguard everything we care about and absolutely never let the tragedy of the past repeat itself!

Tifa's gaze was resolute as she plummeted downwards, her body surging with red and yellow light, like a shooting star crashing to the ground.

Combined attack - [Meteor Strike]!

But in the time it took for the three gladiators to reabsorb seawater and convert it into hydrogen energy, the Star Whale had already locked onto Tifa, and a dark blue beam of light, tens of meters in diameter, had taken shape in its mouth.

At the critical moment, a thick, blue-white beam of light, crackling with electric sparks, shot out from the void and struck the star whale's gaping maw, instantly triggering a chain reaction of explosions on the biological warship.

As the Chitauri bio-ships disintegrated, thousands of soldiers fled the exploding carnage through flank exits, piloting aircraft to escape the hellish chaos.

The heavily damaged raiders roared in fury as they fired at Tifa and Sera in mid-air.

However, as the air twisted and writhed, an airship that had torn through the Optical Camouflage appeared in front of the two, using its Electromagnetic Shield.

Meanwhile, Vincent, transformed into a red streak of light, slaughtered the Chitauri soldiers; Barrett, raising the new Gatling gun's mechanical arm, blasted the flying vehicles through the air; Barret Yuffie, hanging precariously from mid-air, teetering on the verge of falling, jumped down to intercept the ground gladiators...

All members of Avalanche have arrived.

"Everyone..."

Tifa slammed her knee into the silver-medal gladiator behind Yuffie, her eyes slightly moist.

"Haha, those damp, mushy underground shelters are no fun for anyone! I'm going to have a good time on the surface!"

"Hey! Boss lady, we didn't come here for nothing, this order needs to be paid!"

Vincent, hearing the teasing from Barret and Yuffie, landed on the rooftop and joined the others in a pincer movement, a slight smile playing on his lips.

In an avalanche, no snowflake can remain unscathed; our fates are intertwined!

Chapter 928, Section 970: Theresa Will Also Be Majestic Today

In the Imaginary Space above Berlin, Germany, the Helios.

Sitting in the captain's seat, Theresa looked at the European regions, including Britain, France, Germany, and Italy, which were successively engulfed in war. Her brows were furrowed, her expression somewhat irritable, and she fidgeted restlessly in her seat.

To be honest, the superhuman physique of the Sakaar gladiators combined with the legionary combat capabilities of the Chitauri did indeed cause considerable trouble for the human forces remaining behind.

Indeed, after Earth's series of technological explosions, Tactical Exoskeleton and Power Armor have achieved a significant leap in quality compared to the Chitauri.

However, in terms of quantity, it is far from sufficient.

The Power Armor and Tactical Exoskeleton that humanity has only recently begun mass-producing have barely made a ripple in the millions of conventional troops.

Even the Chitauri used as cannon fodder are almost all equipped with a Tactical Exoskeleton.

Moreover, it's not just because ants can kill elephants; the Chitauri also have gladiators around them who can tear apart Gundams with their bare hands.

Therefore, the situation on the ground is not optimistic, and the battle between the human defenders and the two auxiliary forces has reached a stalemate.

Through holographic projections presented by Dark Plane Communication, one can see that the European continent is engulfed in flames, with war raging on almost every inch of land and every street.

Power Armor, Tactical Exoskeleton, and human soldiers are constantly drawn into the battlefield, engaging in bloody battles.

Biological warships swooped down and roared, small flying vehicles circled and danced, ammunition poured down, bursts of fire erupted in the sky, smoke billowed on the ground, and buildings collapsed one after another.

Every second, lives are lost; every minute, explosions erupt. A gigantic meat grinder has taken shape.

Theresa listened to the cacophony of calls for help on the public channel, and the images of the outposts going out one after another, and felt a pang of pity.

The violent white-haired nun grabbed Judah from beside her and looked longingly at Cecilia "left protector."

However, the usually gentle Her Highness the Saintess a serious expression and a resolute attitude.

"Headmistress, please return to your seats. The Valkyrie squad cannot move!"

"This is just a probe from Titan Star. Deploying the Valkyrie forces to the battlefield in advance might solve the immediate problem, but if a second wave of air attacks comes, we will be in a very passive position!"

Siegfried nodded, agreeing with his wife, his expression somewhat grave.

"Theresa, this isn't a game where you can save and start over at any time. Once you've deployed your Valkyrie forces, it's not so easy to recall them and prepare for the next attack..."

"If you lose the game, you can play a few more rounds, but if you make the wrong decision, many people will die!"

Then, the man looked at the regular troops struggling on the ground and murmured softly.

"Besides, we are of the same race; we are not obligated to be nannies taking care of these ordinary people!"

"For a soldier, war is the very meaning of their existence..."

"If they can't even hold off the lowest-ranking servants on Titan Star, then what's the point of human civilization?"

Silence reigned all around. Whether it was the [Snow Wolf Squad] who liked to contradict him, or the [Immortal Blade] who bore Theresa's mark, they were all seriously pondering these words.

Siegfried paused, his previously cynical gaze softening as he carefully scanned each familiar face, a genuine emotion welling up in his contemplation.

"I hope that after this war ends, I will see every one of you still alive..."
