Chapter 687: One hundred million Profound Heaven Mechs make their debut

"Just how much did this kid castrate the Profound Heaven Iron Maiden troop talismans and barracks blueprints he leaked out..."

The Grand Commander had thought he was fully prepared, yet he still underestimated Yun Shen.

Facing such terrifying Profound Heaven Iron Maidens, would he win?

"No, I cannot fight a war of attrition!"

The Grand Commander knew he had no way out. If he retreated now and the news reached his clan, he would certainly have to take the blame.

His clansmen would only see that the Blue Star District's defensive strength was "weak," and as the Grand Commander of this operation, missing such a prime opportunity to strike a heavy blow against Yun Shen made him a sinner!

Therefore, this battle had to be fought, even if he had to grit his teeth and push through.

The Grand Commander issued an order: "All forces, attack! Close the distance! They want to fight a war of attrition with us, we cannot let them have their way!"

The melee capabilities of the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens were indeed far superior to the vast majority of nuclear-armed units, but they were ultimately limited.

As long as they could close the distance, it would be a favorable situation for his God Race!

Unlike the last time they fought the Blue Star District, this time the Blue Star District was ill-prepared; they lacked a large number of Profound Heaven Researchers to assist with acceleration, and even the Void Isolated Island was absent, making it difficult to maintain distance from the God Race army.

The subsequent battle situation unfolded just as the Grand Commander had expected. The Blue Star Legion was indeed retreating, trying their best to widen the gap, but the effect was limited; the distance between the two sides was still closing rapidly.

After all, not all warships were fast, and the Blue Star Legion's defensive line could not be withdrawn prematurely, nor could other warships abandon those with slower movement speeds.

The God Race army was different; the frontline defensive line moved as fast as possible, and the warships in the rear followed if they could, or came along slowly if they couldn't.

This was the important reason why the distance between the two sides had been closing.

The Grand Commander wore an expression of total confidence, as if he had already seen the dawn of victory.

At this very moment, with the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens no longer hiding their combat power, the God Race army had already lost over twenty billion troops, along with their auxiliary warships!

The Blue Star Legion had also lost over five billion troops, among which the proportion belonging to Yun Shen was extremely low.

Relying on their super-high attribute values and the assistance of the Great Expansion Holy Book in command, it was not so simple to make them fall in battle.

Moreover, even if they did fall, they could be quickly resurrected and teleported back.

Quite a few had retreated to the rear to receive treatment.

Although a space blockade had been activated, their side had Profound Heaven Researchers assisting in modifying data to enhance the effects of teleportation items, allowing them to forcibly break through the effects of the legendary-grade space blockade and travel quickly between their territory and the battlefield.

With a thousand-fold time acceleration, what did a fatal wound even matter?

The Holy Healing Angels would heal them in the shortest possible time.

The Grand Commander clearly did not realize this; he only saw that the Blue Star Legion also had many warships and units falling, and he saw some figures of Profound Heaven Iron Maidens among them.

The battlefield was chaotic, and the dust and smoke from the explosions were severe. The Grand Commander did not have the Great Expansion Holy Book, so it was impossible for him to know whose units were falling.

He only knew that his side had successfully wiped out about one-fifth of the Blue Star District's combat power!

His own side had only lost roughly over one-tenth!

Setting aside the specific number of casualties, the advantage was his!

When the distance between the two sides was pulled to a certain point, the Blue Star District stopped retreating and instead charged forward quite openly!

The Grand Commander laughed heartily, "The dogs of the Blue Star District can no longer retreat; they finally couldn't hold back anymore. Pass on my order: Kill!"

However, the Grand Commander's excitement did not last long.

When the two sides truly engaged in close-quarters combat and the bayonets were drawn, a sudden change occurred!

[Mechanical Descent of the Gods]!

A super-large-scale spatial fluctuation appeared on the battlefield, and giant mechs descended into this theater of war!

The Grand Commander keenly sensed that the vast majority of Profound Heaven Iron Maidens on the battlefield had disappeared; these giant mechs must have been summoned by them.

Carefully reviewing the previous battlefield footage, it could be determined that every ten Profound Heaven Iron Maidens could summon one such giant mech!

The Grand Commander was instantly dumbfounded, cursing, "What the hell is that? The intelligence didn't say they had this ability?! Are the intelligence departments all a bunch of idiots?!"

The God Race had investigated Yun Shen for so long and had never heard of the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens being able to summon such giant mechs!

Such important intelligence was only discovered when the two sides were engaged in hand-to-hand combat; the intelligence department definitely had to take the blame!

The Grand Commander carefully flipped through the previously obtained Profound Heaven Iron Maiden panel information and discovered that compared to the castrated versions of Profound Heaven Iron Maidens held by other lords, Yun Shen's had one "special" skill.

Skills like [Mechanical Descent of the Gods] that did not require proficiency were very rare. In most cases, their effects were excellent; they were generally innate, very suitable for the user, and difficult to learn from skill books.

But even if he knew which skill it was, so what?

The Grand Commander still did not know the combat power of these giant mechs; he would have to fight them to find out.

As for sending scouts to investigate and appraise them?

By the time they finished checking, the battle would have already started.

Looking at the hundred million giant mechs that had suddenly appeared on the battlefield, that terrifying aura gave the Grand Commander a sudden, very ominous feeling.

Damn it, these big guys required ten Profound Heaven Iron Maidens to pilot; they looked very troublesome at first glance!

In fact, it wasn't just the God Race side that was stunned; the Blue Star Legion side wasn't much better.

Lords, heroes, and units were all looking at each other, not understanding what was going on with these big guys.

Some of the female lords among them had also recruited Profound Heaven Iron Maidens, but they had never heard of them having this ability either!

"Hey, hey, hey, Dongmei! Didn't you also recruit Profound Heaven Iron Maidens? Did Boss Yun Shen make you hide this ability?"

"Yeah, yeah, you really kept us in the dark for so long!"

"It's painful. I also want to recruit Profound Heaven Iron Maidens, but I have a... down there."

"Another day of wanting to be a woman..."

With that abyss-like aura and energy fluctuation, under their appraisal, they could already see how terrifying the power contained within these Profound Heaven Mechs was!

Could these be comparable to mythical units?

One hundred million mythical units joining the battlefield—the advantage is ours!

In this battle, the Blue Star District might not actually lose!

Facing the envy, jealousy, and hatred of so many lords, the female lord known as Dongmei also said blankly, "What are you talking about? I don't know that Profound Heaven Iron Maidens have this ability either!"

She turned to ask the Profound Heaven Iron Maiden who was healing nearby, "Do you have this ability?"

That Profound Heaven Iron Maiden shook her head and said, "No, it should be that only the sisters at headquarters have this ability."

Her smart chip could not share data information with "headquarters," so she was unaware of many things.
