Magic? My Iron Torrent will sweep it all away!

Shen Minghe cursed loudly:

"Get lost! If I were a coward, I wouldn't have chosen this name in the first place!"

Wang Ce chuckled:

"If we could exchange one of the demon gods for one, it would be a huge win!"

"I'm a Chaozhou native, so the family genealogy in the ancestral hall should at least have a separate page for me, to bring honor to my ancestors!"

"I've already planned out my achievements: to exchange a god for a mortal body!"

"How about that, pretty cool, right?"

Shen Minghe:

"You've been reading too many novels, haven't you?"

"Hurry up and uninstall that 'Red Persimmon' novel. Thinking about this right before the battle..."

Wang Ce laughed heartily.

"You still have to have dreams."

"If I leave, my family won't have to worry about me. I just feel a little sorry for my parents because I didn't fulfill my filial duties to them."

"If we don't have to lift a finger in this battle, we'll definitely go back and do more to take care of our parents."

"Damn it, I never realized it before, I just thought they were too nagging. Now that I'm older, I realize how awful I was back then, always causing them so much worry."

As he spoke, his gaze fell on his hand, where a photograph flashed into view.

A family photo covered by a transparent protective layer.

The father in the photo has a restrained smile, while the mother stands beside him with a kind smile and her hand on his arm.

The channel fell silent.

A few seconds later, Wang Ce realized something was wrong.

"Old Shen, why aren't you saying anything?"

After a moment, Shen Minghe finally spoke.

"I'm quite envious of you."

"My parents died right at the very beginning of the apocalypse."

"At that time, the south was hit by a series of typhoons and torrential rains, and floods destroyed several villages."

"I rushed back as fast as I could after receiving the news, but it was too late... I couldn't see them one last time..."

Shen Minghe's voice was calm.

The calmness left Wang Ce unsure how to respond.

He whispered:

"Old Shen, I'm sorry, I..."

Shen Minghe said with a smile:

"It's nothing, I just missed them after hearing what you said."

"They used to urge me to get married all the time."

"I told you, in the army, you're surrounded by a bunch of grown men, where else can you find that?"

"If you keep pressuring me, I may not be able to find a woman, but I can certainly find a man!"

"My dad was furious and said, 'You bastard, there are always female soldiers in the army, hurry up and find one, don't tell me there aren't any, I've already looked into it.'"

"My mom was there too, saying that if you don't get married, what will you do when you get old? You'll be a hated old bachelor, and your dad and I will be too ashamed to face anyone."

Wang Ce didn't say anything, just listened quietly to Old Shen's rambling.

Shen Minghe paused for a moment, then smiled and continued:

"I argued back with him and said that when I get old, I will sit at my doorstep, just like when I was a child, and wait for you to come and pick me up."

"Their eyes immediately welled up with tears, and I was quite pleased with myself. What a jerk I was!"

"To my surprise, when I rushed back, I found the entire village submerged by the flood; there was no trace of my home anywhere..."

"I can't even fulfill this wish..."

Wang Ce felt a tightness in his throat as he listened to Shen Minghe's seemingly casual words.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

He suddenly remembered a saying: "The things that once made you cry, you will one day be able to talk about with a smile."

Just like Lao Shen.

He sighed; it was a case of the black-haired sending off the white-haired.

Only the crackling sound of electricity remained on the communication channel.

Just as he was wondering what to say, a voice suddenly came through their public channel.

"Wang Ce, Shen Minghe!"

Their expressions instantly changed: "Here!"

"Plan B is activated."

"Execute immediately. The mission briefing is being sent to you now."

"clear!"

Inside the holographic helmet, the mission interface quickly unfolded.

Against a black sky background, nine red targets are moving at high speed.

The largest red dot is located in the center and is numbered one.

Eight smaller red dots were distributed around the perimeter, maintaining a protective formation at all times.

[Primary Target: Demon God, codename Akel.]

[Accompanying targets: Eight seventh-tier demon lords.]

[Mission Objective: Approach Aker and drop an antimatter bomb within the kill zone.]

[Deployment distance: within one kilometer.]

Optimal distance: within 300 meters.

Wang Ce and Shen Minghe's hearts began to pound rapidly.

The moment has arrived.

Two spatial rings, crafted by the dwarves, were worn on their hands respectively.

Each ring contains an antimatter bomb, and the spatial isolation shields the demon god from its danger perception, allowing them to approach the demon god and carry out the decapitation.

A new tactical map then popped up on the mission page.

One hundred unmanned Pangu ships were divided into eight suppression groups, each responsible for entangled with one Demon Lord.

They will use high-speed mobility, attacks, and close-quarters combat to keep the eight demon lords away from Aker as much as possible.

What they need to do is create opportunities for the two of them to avoid being interfered with by other demon lords.

At the same time, kill as many Demon Lord-level targets as possible.

Wang Ce and Shen Minghe joined the attack on Aker, with other unmanned Pangu mechs providing cover.

Whoever enters the delivery range first is responsible for activating the spatial ring and destroying the target.

"Mission confirmed," Wang Ce said.

"Mission confirmed," Shen Minghe said immediately.

The voice from the base command center came through again.

"Everything you do from now on will be connected to the command center."

"Remember, once the device leaves the spatial isolation zone, Aker will most likely detect it immediately."

"You only have one chance!"

Wang Ce and Shen Minghe said with firm eyes:

"clear."

In front of the hangar, heavy alloy gates slowly opened to both sides.

Outside was the dim sky above Kona Satellite.

The distant artillery fire continued to explode, and the sky outside the base was illuminated by artillery shells and meteors.

Hundreds of drones swept past from different directions, streaking into the sky with purple trails of flame.

The unmanned Pangu mech at the front of the hangar was the first to start.

Their thrusters on their backs and feet spewed out blazing flames as they charged out of the hangar one after another.

The steel machine rapidly changed direction in the air, flying towards the designated interception point.

The two piloted the Pangu ship forward, and the thrusters on its back and feet exploded simultaneously.

The immense thrust propelled the six-meter-tall mech directly out of the hangar, quickly chasing after the swarm of drone mechs ahead.

On the navigation screen, the red dot representing Aker is flashing continuously.

The distance to the target is constantly decreasing.

Their speed wasn't fast; the main thing was that the red dot approached at an astonishing speed.

Ten thousand kilometers, five thousand kilometers, one thousand kilometers...
