A day later, Broken Blade Fortress shook as countless attacks, guided by Lu Yin, streaked into the starry sky and destroyed a great many Void Swimmers.
Broken Blade Fortress erupted in cheers. They had never fought so satisfying a battle.
Han Fei let out a breath of relief. This was how it should be. As long as they destroyed more Void Swimmers, they could slow the giant beasts' advance.
Wang Wen looked grim. According to his analysis, now that the war had reached this point, the giant beasts would fight to the death. They wouldn't be as cautious as they had been at Spring Autumn Fortress. They had been in a hurry when invading Spring Autumn Fortress, so they wouldn't wait any longer.
His guess was right. A roar shook the starry sky, and Loach Old Monster appeared.
A monster with a battle force exceeding three hundred thousand had never appeared at Broken Blade Fortress. Breaking with his usual habits, Loach Old Monster appeared alone and defended against the entire fortress's attacks. This prevented Broken Blade Fortress from wiping out the Void Swimmers right away, and soon, all-out war descended.
Lu Yin put away his Personal terminal. The hard fight was here.
"Try to stay out of sight. I can't look after you." Lu Yin spoke calmly, then leaped into the starry sky.
Xi Qi watched him leave. "What should we do?"
Fish swished his tail. "Hide."
"That doesn't sound right," Xi Qi said hesitantly.
Fish raised his head proudly. "Look at the starry sky. See that big fish? He's Sir Fish's relative. Don't worry. You'll be fine even if everyone else dies."
Xi Qi stared blankly at Loach Old Monster. "Your relative? He must be your ancestor."
Fish puffed up proudly. "That's right. An ancestor."
"He's your ancestor?"
"Bullshit.
