Toronto, South District.

Amidst a continuous stretch of architectural ruins.

A figure clad in black, form-fitting armor buried himself under the rubble, leaving only a gap less than two fingers wide for observing his surroundings.

This figure was none other than Miran, the battle nun of Starshine City.

At this moment, on the armor mounting point on her back, a palm-sized "Void Silence Force Field Generator" was emitting an extremely faint low-frequency hum.

A thin, invisible gray force field membrane enveloped her entire body like a cocoon.

This device can completely suppress her soul fluctuations and block all biological life signals. In the mechanical spirit race's detector, she is now no different from a stone.

That's why she hasn't been discovered yet.

but……

Miran lowered his eyes and glanced at the tactical panel inside the helmet visor.

The energy indicator had turned a glaring deep red and was receding at a visible rate.

[Warning: Low energy, force field duration countdown: 04:58...]

"Less than five minutes left..."

Miran bit her lower lip hard.

The "Void Silence Field Generator" is a high-energy-consuming special equipment that cannot be kept on for extended periods.

Once the energy is depleted and the force field disappears, given the mechanical spirit race's ability to sense soul signals and life energy, she will be identified within three seconds at most.

"I can't die... I must deliver this thing alive!"

Miran took a deep breath and instinctively covered a hidden compartment on the inside of her chest armor with her hand.

There, there was a [data crystal].

She closed her eyes, and the tragic scene of Starshine City's fall flashed through her mind, along with the image of the battle nun's blood-soaked hands as she stuffed the crystal into her arms before her death.

"Mirann...find a high-ranking official who is absolutely loyal to the Torres Empire...and hand him over. If the high-ranking officials in Ironspine City cannot be trusted, move on to the next city!"

Driven by this mission, she embarked on a journey of escape with the church's squad...

Upon discovering the Eldar guard squad, she immediately sent out a distress call.

But Miran never dreamed that the Eldar would react so dramatically.

To hunt down an ordinary combat nun, the Mechanical Eldar actually dispatched two elite squads!

When she realized something was wrong and tried to contact Ironridge City again, she discovered that the communication signals for the entire area had been completely blocked, and Dorron City had become an isolated island.

Her church squad consisted of only six combat nuns, including herself.

The defensive line collapsed the moment they encountered two elite squads. To cover her retreat, her teammates charged towards the enemy one by one... and ultimately died in battle!

Now, she is all alone, hiding here like a rat, waiting to die.

"Boom! Bang bang bang!"

Just as Miran was lost in despairing memories, a muffled blast of a slingshot and a violent explosion suddenly came from the other side of the ruins, several hundred meters away!

There's been a firefight!

And judging from the gunshot, it was definitely a standard-issue explosive rifle from the Star Shield Army!

"Have reinforcements from Ironridge City arrived?"

A glint of survival flashed in Miran's green eyes.

She cautiously peered out through the gaps in the rubble.

A few minutes later, several figures, taking turns providing cover and advancing rapidly through the ruins, came into her view.

It was a five-person team.

The leader was a man wearing lieutenant's shoulder insignia.

He held a storm shield emitting a ghostly blue light in his left hand and a power sword in his right, engaged in fierce combat with a squad of mechanical Eldar who had flanked him.

"Star Shield Army!" Miran was overjoyed.

She gripped the explosive pistol tightly, preparing to push aside the rubble above her head and rush out to meet up with the other party.

But just as she was about to exert her strength...

Out of the corner of his eye, Miran suddenly caught sight of a half-collapsed Gothic clock tower rooftop a hundred meters away.

There, a tall, slender figure in dark clothing had appeared out of nowhere.

It was also a mechanical Eldar body, but its armor was dark black, and its body was more slender than that of an ordinary mechanical warrior. Its face had no facial features, only a huge electronic eye that shimmered with a cold green light.

What made Miran feel most suffocated was the weapon it was holding.

That was a nerve-crushing sniper rifle that was over a meter long!

"A machine... a mechanical Eldar assassin?!"

Miran's breath caught in her throat, and her pupils contracted sharply.

As a combat nun, she knew all too well what that class of soldier meant!

That's a Death God from the Mechanical Spirit Race, created specifically to hunt down high-ranking humans and top-tier powerhouses!

Once it appears on the battlefield, its target will definitely be someone at the rank of company commander or higher!

What does "company commander level" mean?

That means that their combat power is almost on par with that of a high-level psionicist, and they can easily crush any mid-level psionicist!

And now...

Why would a top-tier assassin of company commander rank appear in this remote ruin?

To deal with that Star Shield lieutenant who's currently engaged in battle? Impossible! A lieutenant isn't worth an assassin's time!

so......

It came to hunt you down!

Thinking about this...

Miran's breathing became extremely rapid.

"The Mechanical Eldar...do they already know the Data Crystal is on me?"

In that instant, Miran's newly ignited hope was extinguished by a bucket of ice water.

Instead of getting up, she buried her head even deeper into the pile of rubble.

The mechanical Eldar assassins possess the ability of "Dimensional Marking".

If you dare to show even the slightest sign of life, and that one-eyed eye takes one look, you will be branded with a dimensional mark.

By then, even if you run to the other side of the planet, you'll only be waiting to die.

"Sister... what exactly is hidden inside this data crystal?!" Miran bit her lip and closed her eyes in despair.

Just then, several whooshing sounds interrupted Miran's thoughts.

"Boom!"

Several figures suddenly rolled out from behind a boulder less than five meters directly in front of her.

The leader was a young man in a white suit. Although the white suit was stained with dust, it could not hide his inherent arrogance.

The man in the white suit was Lu Ge.
