Chapter 1017: Spaceship

With a flicker of thought, an orange-red glow began to shimmer along Sun Cheng's spine.

That was the Soul-Reaping Gun absorbing solar energy and replenishing the Spark within his body.

At the same time, countless metal particles began to emerge from within his lower abdomen, rapidly repairing the wounds on his body.

Sun Cheng looked up and fired an Energy Cannon at Lockdown, preventing him from continuing to fire his own cannons.

"Elite Warriors, step forward and surround him with me! All other Advanced Warriors, prepare to engage the monsters on the ship."

Lockdown's ship had already begun to take action.

Portals began to appear on the ship's previously smooth surface.

Simultaneously, aircraft resembling small Combat Airships, along with Mechanical Monsters shaped like starving wolves, began to pour out from those portals, launching frenzied attacks on targets on the ground.

At Sun Cheng's command, over a dozen Elite Warriors immediately stepped forward, surrounding Lockdown tightly.

He himself also charged into the fray; facing a Leader-class Warrior, relying solely on these Decepticons would undoubtedly result in heavy losses.

The remaining Advanced Warriors immediately summoned their weapons and swiftly charged toward the monsters pouring out of the ship.

Sun Cheng did not need to issue further orders, as the commanders coordinated the efforts.

All Sub-bases within a radius of several hundred square kilometers had already begun mobilizing troops and were rapidly rushing to the scene.

Golden Eagle Armed Transport Ships ascended into the sky, bringing in troops from further away.

In the sky, Golden Eagle Fighters that had been circling for a long time quickly locked onto the Combat Airships, continuously spraying bombs and large-caliber Rockets at their targets.

In the sky not far away, over a hundred Anti-aircraft missiles launched, beginning to swarm toward Lockdown's ship.

And further away, across the entire Americas, hundreds of anti-aircraft positions simultaneously dropped their camouflage at this moment.

Missile after missile rose rapidly into the sky; under Sun Cheng's order to fire at full capacity, they launched all the missiles originally prepared for the Decepticon Legion invasion and potential human nuclear war at the giant ship hovering above the Central Main Control Base.

At the same time, in the distant Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean.

Arsenal Ships and nuclear submarines also surfaced rapidly, and medium-to-long-range ballistic missiles with even more terrifying power simultaneously locked onto Lockdown's ship, beginning to wantonly display their existence to the world.

"Warning... Warning..."

Thousands of Anti-aircraft missiles and hundreds of medium-to-long-range cruise missiles rose almost simultaneously, densely firing toward the South American region.

Even though South America's presence on Earth had always been far inferior to the Far East, Middle East, and Europe, and even inferior to Africa.

But at this very moment, this was perhaps the most terrifying display of firepower since the end of World War II.

In an instant, it still triggered the air defense early-warning systems of various South American countries, as well as the global satellite early-warning systems of several major rogue states.

Suddenly, many countries on Earth were thrown into chaos due to the dense swarm of missiles flying over South America.

Sun Cheng had no time or energy to think about how to clean up this mess afterward.

His eyes were fixed on Lockdown, holding his somewhat damaged Shield high, one hand gripping an Energy Cannon, as he engaged in a frenzied struggle with Lockdown.

Although Sun Cheng's speed was not as good as Lockdown's, his strength and body integrity were superior to Lockdown's.

With the coordination of over a dozen Elite Warriors protected by Armor forged by the Heaven's Pride Hammer, they constantly squeezed Lockdown's range of movement, soon pinning him tightly within a space of less than a hundred square meters.

Sun Cheng charged to the front without hesitation; Lockdown's weapons could hurt him, but Sun Cheng could hurt Lockdown just the same.

"Stop him from activating the electromagnetic Railgun!"

He commanded in the communication channel, while over a dozen Elite Warriors fought with their lives.

Under the siege where everyone was willing to trade wounds for wounds, especially with one opponent who was already not much worse than a Leader-class Warrior.

Facing such opponents, even though Lockdown had long since become a Leader-class Warrior, he quickly fell into a disadvantage.

Fatal wounds were rapidly left on his body, and as Sun Cheng and the others began to grow accustomed to Lockdown's fighting style, the situation became increasingly unfavorable for Lockdown.

In the sky, explosions occurred one after another.

Anti-aircraft missiles rose, but when attempting to hit Lockdown's ship, they seemed to collide with something several meters away from the ship, exploding in mid-air.

Sun Cheng took a moment to glance over, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Surrounding Lockdown's ship was a ripple-like Protective Barrier.

"Continue the bombardment, order all storage depots to keep only two units of missiles for emergencies. Throw everything else at it!"

Sun Cheng was no longer the Xiaobai who understood nothing in the past!

After years of uninterrupted study, although the knowledge he acquired was very chaotic, he could grasp many things instantly.

Lockdown's ship looked impressive.

The Protective Barrier alone could easily block the bombardment of thousands of the base's Anti-aircraft missiles.

But!

Maintaining the Protective Barrier required consuming the ship's energy.

Moreover, there was an upper limit to the damage a single area of the Protective Barrier could withstand; once the number and explosive power of the Anti-aircraft missiles exceeded that limit.

Then that section of the Protective Barrier would briefly develop a defensive vulnerability, and missiles could pass through the vulnerable area to strike the ship's hull directly.

At the same time, the battle for air superiority also entered a white-hot stage.

Hundreds of Combat Airships flew out from within Lockdown's ship.

Their weapons were primarily large-caliber machine cannons; although their power was not as great as the Golden Eagle Fighters, they had the advantage of sheer numbers.

Fortunately, the performance of the Golden Eagle Fighters was excellent enough, and with the help of the aerial combat robots that began to launch in large numbers, one Combat Airship after another was destroyed, either exploding in mid-air or falling after their power systems were destroyed.

Sun Cheng glanced over, and upon noticing that the robots were rapidly recovering the wreckage of several Combat Airships that remained intact after falling, he nodded with satisfaction.

With these high-performance Combat Airships as technical references, the base's aerial combat robots should soon be able to undergo a major technological upgrade.

Because of this, Sun Cheng looked at the ship hanging high in the air, which was being attacked by countless Anti-aircraft missiles, and a bit of greed suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"It should be very difficult for us to keep Lockdown, but this ship..."

Sun Cheng could not guarantee that he could keep Lockdown.

This guy was, after all, a Leader-class Warrior, although he did not understand why the other party, who was an assassin skilled in assassination, had to attack with such fanfare, even going so far as to face a faction head-on.

But based on his understanding of Leader-class Warriors, if the other party fought to escape, it would be very difficult for them to keep Lockdown.

However, since Sun Cheng had offended the other party severely.

He had to find a way to strike them hard enough to make them hurt once and for all.

High above in the sky, that suspended spaceship was clearly a good target.
