"Lieutenant Li Xiucheng, he's charging too fast."

"Lieutenant Li Xiucheng, is he getting a little too excited?"

Many mercenary pilots in GM Mobile Suits watched Lieutenant Li Xiucheng lose himself in battle, and all of them complained a little.

The GM Mobile Suit pilots fighting in the same area simply could not keep up with Li Xiucheng.

The missiles on Li Xiucheng's Proto Gundam Thunderbolt had all been fired. Its shoulder-mounted particle cannon destroyed modified Pirate Group spacecraft with a single shot, while the twin beam guns on its wrists shot down many pirate MS.

Whenever pirate MS pilots saw the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt, they fled as if they had seen a ghost.

"What are you doing? Attack already! Running is useless! You'll only..." A burst of static followed, and he was taken out by a single shot from the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt.

Many pirate MS fled the Proto Gundam Thunderbolt's combat zone, but many of those fleeing pirate MS were also shot down by the arriving GM Mobile Suits.

Although the Skywing Mercenary Group had gained the upper hand, nearly half of the GMs on the battlefield had already returned to the carrier for repairs.

The Proto Gundam and GP01 Gundam Zephyranthes also returned to the Albion MS Carrier's hangar for maintenance. Six GM Mobile Suits in the hangar were likewise undergoing repairs and resupply.

The MD System's automatic repair program handled MS repairs using various tools mounted on mechanical arms, while maintenance personnel made adjustments to the finer details.

Long Fei remained in the cockpit, watching the battlefield situation on the screen. Another message came through the display: the Pirate Group had sent another relief force, appearing not far to the left of their fleet.

"Captain Fix, I'll sortie with the Heavy Equipment Pack against the enemy's second relief force."

"It's too dangerous for you to go alone."

"Just transfer Proto Gundam Unit 6 and some GM Mobile Suits over to fight alongside me. Leave the rest at the main battlefield."

Long Fei's Proto Gundam Unit 7 was equipped with the Heavy Equipment Pack.

Proto Gundam Unit 6 and ten GMs immediately followed behind Long Fei.

"If the intelligence is correct, this should be the Sea Wolf Pirate Group's last relief force. They've deployed all their forces."

The newly appeared relief force consisted of ten modified spacecraft and nearly a hundred MS, with no fighters.

Long Fei pressed a button, activating the pair of Mega Beam Cannons at his waist. They instantly pierced through two modified spacecraft. The Beam Gun in his right hand fired continuously, the twin beam guns on his left wrist opened fire, and missiles followed.

That single barrage wiped out nearly twenty Pirate Group MS.

Avina let out a whistle. "The boss's Gundam has such overwhelming firepower. The Gundam Li Xiucheng pilots can't compare to the boss's."

Two targets were locked onto on the screen. Avina pressed a button, and the two low-recoil cannons on her shoulders fired. The locked targets exploded directly into fireworks.

"Brothers and sisters, if we're any slower, the boss will gobble up all our targets."

The others also fought at full firepower.

Zoshan Taro watched the final relief force from the command room. Their MS squads were being slaughtered one-sidedly. The newly appeared Gundam's formidable firepower and performance, in particular, sent a chill down Zoshan Taro's back.

Then another subordinate came to report to him.

"Commander, there have been many unidentified attacks inside our base."

"What do you mean?"

"We don't know where the attacks are coming from. Every search team has been wiped out."

"What the hell are the people wearing thermal sensors doing? Why haven't they found the enemy?"

"The people wearing thermal sensors are being targeted first, and then the others are ambushed."

Zoshan Taro knew he could not keep waiting helplessly. Sooner or later, the enemy would reach his command room, and then death would be waiting for him.

Zoshan Taro could only take out that phone and dial that person's number.

"Mr. Zoshan, have you made your decision?" the other party asked bluntly.

"Tell me the password."

After obtaining the password, Zoshan Taro summoned his personal guard and had them escort him to his private hangar.

Zoshan Taro had no intention of being shot dead by an invisible enemy while heading to his private hangar alone.

"Damn it, smoke grenades. Thermal sensors can't detect anything."

Intense coughing soon erupted among the other pirates as well.

"Damn it, these smoke grenades contain highly concentrated tear gas!"

Then screams from their companions rang in the pirates' ears. They watched the companions beside them collapse into pools of blood.

Many pirates dropped their weapons and fled in terror.

As many pirates fled through the smoke after dropping their weapons, bullets from unknown directions killed them. The pirates who barely escaped the smoke had countless bloody mists burst from their bodies before they fell to the ground, blood spilling everywhere.

Ten Sky Wing Mercenaries clad in War God Armor Battle Suits appeared on the scene. After the leader made a hand signal, the others immediately formed five-man squads and scattered in different directions.

Elsewhere, fierce gunfire erupted at an important Sea Wolf Pirate Group facility.

Twenty-three Sky Wing Mercenaries in War God Armor Battle Suits hid behind several pieces of cover and returned fire. Three mercenaries had been wounded and were being treated by their companions.

Why had the Sky Wing Mercenaries in War God Armor Battle Suits, which possessed stealth capabilities, been discovered?

The main reason was that there were smart people in the Pirate Group as well. Since wearing thermal sensors only made them priority targets, some clever pirates came up with a plan: lure the unseen enemies hiding in the dark into this important facility equipped with a fire-suppression system.

Then they activated the fire-suppression system, and water poured down like a torrential rain. The cloaked Sky Wing Mercenaries were immediately exposed.

"Requesting help, requesting help! We're under fierce pirate attack and need fire support." One mercenary called for support from behind cover.

"Received. We'll provide fire cover within thirty seconds."

"Heh heh, those mercenaries were invisible before and bullied us so badly we couldn't even find them. Now they have nowhere to hide. They're nothing to fear anymore. Brothers, kill them all!"

All the pirates opened fire at full force on the building across from them.

Suddenly, one pirate's head burst open like a watermelon, brains splattering across the ground.

"Damn, there's a sniper!"

The pirates who had just been firing at full force immediately stopped shooting and sought cover.

One pirate did not make it behind cover in time. He was shot in the thigh and fell facedown onto the ground.

"Help me."

One pirate hurried over to rescue his companion lying facedown on the ground.

A gunshot rang out, and the pirate who had gone to save his companion was killed by a sniper shot.

After that, none of the pirates dared help their companion. They could only watch him lie there facedown and howl in pain.

The howling pirate did not want to die. Driven by his will to survive, he dragged himself forward with both hands.

Another gunshot rang out, severing one of his hands.

An even louder scream reached the ears of the other pirates at the scene.

Then another gunshot rang out. This time, the sniper did not target the pirate screaming on the ground, but another pirate hiding behind cover.

"There's more than one sniper! Run!"

The other pirates immediately fled into another room.

Several more pirates were shot down as they ran, but the others did not stop and turn back to save their companions.

When the snipers hiding in the dark saw that the pirates were not rescuing their fallen companions, they changed tactics and directly sniped the fleeing pirates.

The remaining dozen or so pirates ran into a relatively enclosed room.

Before they could catch their breath, violent explosions erupted from several walls around the room, blasting several large holes through them.

Several Sky Wing Mercenaries rushed through each breach and gunned down the dozen or so pirates hiding in the room in one burst.

"What idiots. Did you think we couldn't see you just because you hid behind cover or in another room? The see-through function in our helmets lets us see you crystal clear."

A mercenary who had revealed himself stood over the pirates lying in pools of blood and mocked them.

Elsewhere, Zoshan Taro was ambushed.
