Darkness Exposed to the Light

However, we still lack sufficient intelligence regarding the enemy.

All we can confirm now is that, under their pursuit, we have strayed from our original course and are now in a region lacking stellar energy.

"Good."

Gwen slightly upon hearing the Robin's answer.

Although the information provided by the Robin is pitifully little when it comes to combat.

However, for Gwen, it was enough that the ship carrying Robin and the others had sufficient energy and would not be easily destroyed by AOE attacks.

At the same time, Gwen's gaze shifted slightly, meeting the gaze that had been fixed on him ever since he appeared.

He was a handsome and refined man with Robin's crest and ear feathers, and the resemblance between the two men was striking...

"Oh, right, Gwen, this is my brother, Sunday."

Noticing the two making eye contact, the Robin quickly began to introduce them to each other—

"Brother, this is Gwen, who helped me survive the attack and wipe out the attackers."

"Thank you for helping the Robin in his time of need, and for being willing to lend a hand in this time of need, Gwen."

Upon hearing the Robin's words, Sunday, whose expression had been solemn, managed a smile and extended his hand.

"You're welcome."

Smiling, Gwen shook hands with Zhou Tian and shook his head slightly.

"After all, Robin is also somewhat related to me..."

Although it was intended to help the Robin clear out the invading Space Pirates, Gwen's high-profile actions gave those guys an excuse, causing Gwen's original purpose of deterrence to fail.

The ability to disregard Gwen's threats was clearly beyond the capabilities of the local forces on that planet, still embroiled in civil war...

"This isn't your fault, Gwen, it's all those people's fault..."

Upon hearing Robin immediately wanted to persuade Gwen.

Having been entangled with those people for more than half a year, Robin aware of how much the company's people had made a fuss using the excuse of "family experimentation with war weapons".

However, this wasn't Gwen's fault; it was simply that the enemy was truly...

However, before the Robin could finish speaking, Gwen stopped the girl with a smile—

"So, I'm here this time to nip it in the bud."

"?"

Looking at Gwen's gentle smile as he spoke, and feeling the atmosphere created by Gwen because of him, the Robin pursed his lips, said nothing more, and simply nodded slightly, solemnly advising—

Please be extra careful.

This time, the enemy is not comparable to the last one.

Moreover, we are not currently within the range of habitable planets, but rather in a region lacking stellar energy.

Although it wasn't Gwen was Emanator with facing at least an entire, well-equipped and prepared fleet alone...

Even though the Robin had witnessed Gwen's fighting prowess firsthand, he couldn't help but feel worried.

"Ha...

"Don't worry, this is no problem for me. If they think they can weaken my fighting power this way, they've miscalculated."

Gwen waved his hand with a smile, giving the Robin a reassuring look.

"Perhaps... I can offer a little bit of help?"

Just then, a figure silently emerged from the shadows, a tarot card resting between slender fingers—

"Based on my observation, there are at least two more Space Pirates behind us, no smaller than the ones from that day, and of far superior quality."

One was in the open, the other in the shadows, and they were clearly prepared.

As he spoke, the newcomer raised his hand and handed the tarot card between his fingers to Gwen—

"This is some information I have, and I can't guarantee it's completely accurate, but I hope it can help you."

"Miss Black Swan?"

Looking at this Memory User had met her by chance before, Gwen was slightly surprised, but he accepted her tarot cards without any hesitation.

"Yes, when we were evacuating, Miss Robin invited me to leave with her. I was also preparing to leave that planet, so I came to this ship."

Black Swan smiled as she answered Gwen, but her gaze towards him held undisguised curiosity.

For more than six months after that day, Black Swan never saw Gwen again.

Black Swan's intuition tells her that Gwen's secret might bring her invaluable Remembrance...

"It seems you two got along quite well?"

After reading the information provided by the Black Swan, Gwen remained expressionless, chuckled lightly, and turned to leave.

"However, let's talk about catching up after I get back."

"Right now, let me deal with those troublesome things first..."

As he spoke, Gwen took a step forward and disappeared from the three of them.

"Miss Robin, could you please retrieve the ship's observation data regarding the rear?"

I'm curious how Gwen will deal with the sinister hand reaching out from that dark corner.

The Black Swan's eyes flickered slightly, then it smiled and looked at the Robin, asking a question.

"..."

Upon hearing this, the Robin looked at its brother—

This is the ship that Sunday brought from Penacony; Sunday is the person with the highest authority.

"Of course, no problem, that's exactly what I was thinking too."

Sunday smiled and nodded, quickly sharing the observation footage from behind onto the screen here—

In the boundless, dark starry sky, the fleet that had previously been hidden in the shadows, forcing their ship to change course and flee in panic, was now engulfed in flames.

A golden shooting star streaked across the scene, causing it to burst into the most dazzling fireworks.

"This is truly... a rare and spectacular sight..."

As the golden meteors weaved through the fleet, bringing equal destruction to all, Black Swan's purplish-gold eyes reflected the dazzling flames.

Amidst the fireworks, Apollo, transformed into a golden meteor, remained completely unaffected. His radiant golden Corona Sword effortlessly sliced through numerous high-strength shields, its tip flashing with golden light as it turned the warships within those shields into streaks of fire.

"Ha, so what if you came prepared?"

Gwyn could clearly sense that this fleet was much tougher than the last one, and Gwen was a bit rough on his hands when he chopped at it. Without hesitation, he increased the force of his attack, repeating the massacre he had inflicted on that Space Pirates fleet before.

Chapter 494 Darkness Exposed to Light

While Gwen was wreaking havoc on this fleet, and the heavy casualties threw it into chaos, another fleet remained hidden in the shadows—

"Target found! Target found!"

The Alpha Fleet has delayed the enemy!

A report came from the reconnaissance ship in the command room.

"Proceed as planned. Remotely activate the devices on the Alpha Fleet to deploy the restriction field. The Beta Fleet is to be dispatched to capture this terrorist who is disrupting the peace."

Upon hearing the report, the commander of the Beta Fleet stubbed out his cigarette and slowly gave the order.

Although I could hear a hint of panic in my subordinate's voice, so what?

It's just a mecha, how strong can it be?

This is space, and the main players in war will only be well-organized fleets!

"Yes!"

Seemingly comforted by his commander's orders, the reconnaissance ship's captain's voice became much calmer.

"Um?"

While circling the dragon and casually selecting targets to capture two warships, Gwen sensed a peculiar fluctuation emanating from the surviving warships.

"This is... ha... a trap for me?"

Sensing the enemy's intentions, Gwen within Apollo's chest chuckled dismissively, unconcerned, and continued annihilating the fleet before him—

On the outer side of a warship whose shields had been shattered by Gwen's sword but survived thanks to a second layer of shields, a purplish-black katana lay silently, unnoticed by anyone...

Soon, in the heavily damaged fleet, the original physical laws were distorted, and the artificially created distorting Force Field quietly replaced the original rules, causing Apollo's flight trajectory to falter.

"It seems... Gwen has run into some trouble..."

As the golden meteor gradually slowed down, the Black Swan narrowed its eyes slightly.

"It seems that the fleet has created a special position that limits his ability to act."

On Sunday, he looked serious, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

While the Robin's somewhat peculiar attitude towards this man is worth exploring, if Gwen fails, they will likely perish here...

Beside the two, the Robin, though looking worried, simply pursed his lips, wanting to offer Gwen even the slightest help—

"Interesting, this stance..."

"Its strength is decent, but compared to the suppressive effect of the Holy Domain Barrier, it's still far inferior..."

Inside Apollo's chest, Gwen sensed the distorted stance around him, deliberately aimed at him, but remained calm.

The enemy dared to try and catch him, so they obviously weren't unprepared.

However, this fleet, which he had severely damaged, was clearly not safe enough...

Therefore, there must be another enemy force lurking in the shadows.

As Gwen awaited the appearance of the lurking enemy, he suddenly sensed something and raised his right hand—

"Um?

This is..."

Within the golden sphere that enveloped Gwen, a slightly ethereal feather appeared, fluffy as if it had just fallen from a small bird.

"Thank you, Robin."

With a light laugh, Gwen clutched the feather tighter and sent a photo of it to the Robin via the Chat System, his gaze already fixed on the distance—

The enemy Gwen was waiting for has arrived.

"Heh... what an overconfident fool, falling for it so easily..."

In the Beta Fleet command center, the commander looked at the "restricted" Apollo, a disdainful smile on his face, and waved his right hand, which was covered by a white silk glove.

"Proceeding as planned, the fish are harvested."

If it were merely a conflict on this planet, even if the company wanted to guard against family interference, it wouldn't have gone to such extremes.

At least they won't completely wipe out the Robin, since he's a member of the family and also a minor celebrity.

However, some high-ranking officials at Gao Company and some members of the Intelligentsia Academia were very interested in the mecha that appeared that day, which forced him to come and take a look.

Yes!

Seeing that the enemies that the Alpha Fleet had been slaughtering were now meat on the chopping block, the morale of the Beta Fleet soared.

However, just as they were preparing to take action, they were shocked to discover a problem—

Where are they?

"Report: Target missing!"

"What!"

Instantly, the commander, who had been leisurely fiddling with his military cap, turned around and asked incredulously.

However, his response wasn't a repetition of the question, but rather another question—

"Report: We have been compromised by a virus; the defenses have been breached!"

"What on earth is going on?!"

The commander threw down his military cap, startled, and stood up abruptly.
