The player is playing like a god, and has already advanced to Space Marine level at the start.

The Skyblade No. 7 soon arrived over the Northern Star. Lu Xiao and the others looked up and saw everything was ablaze with red, the clouds shattered into pieces. The sirens wailed incessantly, giving them a splitting headache.

Amidst the thick smoke, that massive thing, with a desperate, relentless force, ripped a hole in the atmosphere.

It's Skyblade VII. This angel's ship is in terrible shape now, with patches of paint peeling off and charred holes everywhere.

The broken wing, trailing sparks for miles, thrashed and swayed as it fell. It pressed down relentlessly on the North Star.

The command center below was in complete chaos.

"I can't keep my footing, the boat's rocking wildly!"

"It's only about thirty miles from the impact point!"

"The channels are completely silent; no one is responding!"

No one paid them any attention. The communication was filled with a piercing crackling sound, occasionally punctuated by muffled thunderous drops that sent chills down one's spine.

On the tarmac, large snowflakes mixed with cigarette ash slapped at his face, stinging painfully. Lu Xiao stood in the snowstorm, his back ramrod straight, letting the snowflakes settle on his armor. His red goggles were fixed on the ever-growing metal lump in the sky.

A stench from a patch of rotten flowers wafted into my nostrils, carrying a sinister, murderous aura. It felt like a venomous snake crawling across my neck. Sumari, that cloaked butcher, was raging, standing there, trampling on the remains of an angel.

"Company Commander!" Lei Zhan's voice boomed over the channel, thick with tension. "We've checked. The ship's scum is full of Taotie trash. And there's this weird thing rampaging through the corridors, eerily fast and eerily efficient."

"That's a silver blade," Lu Xiao replied, his voice terribly hoarse. He knew that thing all too well; it was made of dark silver, the hardest thing in the universe. There were no fancy algorithms involved; it was just fast and hard. That so-called divine body was no different from paper in front of it.

Lu Xiao stared at the sky. In the past, this would indeed have been a dead end. But now, he was no longer an ordinary man. He was the emperor's sharpest blade.

"Listen up!" Lu Xiao whirled around, staring at the twenty-five silent, iron-willed men behind him. "Take off this skin, and get on with the big stuff—the Unyielding Terminator Armor! Assault shields, get them all heated up!"

"Yes!!!" Twenty-five shouts shattered the wind and snow.

Several dark cracks appeared in the air as the heavy mechanical arm slammed down with its own weight. Clang! Boom! The impact of the alloy striking each other was deafening. The original armor was violently dismantled, replaced by a thicker, more formidable layer of ceramic steel.

The Unyielding Terminators are machines created to reap the rewards of war in the most brutal killing fields. Several inches thick terracotta steel is filled with void shields and psionic runes enhanced by Lu Xiao. Standing here are twenty-five walking humanoid fortresses.

Click. Lu Xiao fastened the menacing beast-face helmet shut.

"Angel is cold." Lu Xiao's voice, amplified by the loudspeaker, shook the remaining snow on the ground.

Leng stood to the side, watching these suddenly fattened lumps of iron, and subconsciously took a half-step back. This overwhelming sense of suffocation, this steel piled up purely for killing, was even more unsettling than when facing the Queen.

"I'm here." Leng gritted her teeth, forcing herself not to show any weakness.

"Open a door." Lu Xiao raised his thick mechanical arm and pointed to the sky. "Throw us directly onto the main entrance deck."

"Are you crazy?" Leng glared, finding the man utterly unreasonable. "Sumali's right there! His throwing knife can slice through even a god's body! No matter how thickly you're dressed, you're just a giant can of food to him! You'd have to come from the side..."

"Shut up." Lu Xiao cut her off directly. "Astartes never goes through the back door. We go through the front door. Whoever gets in our way, we'll crush them."

Lu Xiao, too lazy to waste words, directly connected to the psionic network. Golden light spots danced wildly on his body, and the space around him began to twist.

"Brothers."

"For the Emperor!"

"For the Emperor!!!"

Boom—! A golden light pierced through the leaden-gray clouds. In the blink of an eye, all the steel giants on the tarmac were gone.

……

Skyblade No. 7, main entrance deck.

This place had long since become a slaughterhouse. The corpses of angels were everywhere, their blood-stained white fur mired in the mud. The gluttonous soldiers, like mad dogs, were busy dismantling parts from the ship.

"Quick! Remove this pipe!"

"There's definitely something good behind the gate!"

The beasts howled excitedly, their eyes gleaming with greed. Suddenly, the air trembled eerily, and a violent heatwave exploded out of nowhere. Whoosh—! A flash of golden light, and twenty-five enormous black shadows slammed heavily into the middle of the deck like meteorites falling to earth.

Boom! ! !

The heavy shell crashed down, instantly shattering the alloy floor into a spiderweb pattern. The Taotie were completely dumbfounded. They stared blankly up at the group of steel giants emitting blue light, their tools clattering to the ground. This thing was enormous, even more imposing than their heavy mechs.

Lu Xiao stood at the very front, slowly raising his head, a plume of scalding white smoke billowing from the helmet's vent. *Sizzle!*

The red goggles lit up.

"Alien," Lu Xiao uttered a few words. "Kill."

Boom! Lei Zhan took a big step forward, shaking the deck. He held the explosive gun in one hand, the dark muzzle pointed at the stunned bastards.

"Fire!!!"

Da da da da da!

Flames sprayed everywhere. Explosive shells rained down like a storm, filling the air with the acrid smell of gunpowder. *Thud! Thud! Thud!* The Taotie's armor was as thin as paper before the explosive shells. The projectiles pierced the flesh and exploded, leaving the corridor littered with fragments.

"Fight back! Fight back now!" A squad leader screamed and ducked into cover, pulling the trigger at Lu Xiao.

Boom! The armor-piercing shell slammed into Lu Xiao's breastplate. Sparks flew, and thick smoke billowed out. The leader's eyes nearly popped out, and not even a white mark was left on his armor. The shield flashed and disappeared.

Lu Xiao didn't stop walking; every step he took shook the ground. The oppressive feeling was almost suffocating.

"A ghost...this is an evil ghost!" The leader immediately panicked, threw down his gun, and ran away.

Lu Xiao raised his left hand, and the huge power gauntlet hummed. He grabbed at the leader from a distance, and the leader froze in mid-air, as if gripped tightly by an invisible hand, his bones creaking and cracking.

"Die." Lu Xiao clenched his fist.

*Thud!* The thing was crushed into a mangled mess in mid-air. Black blood spurted out from the gaps in the armor, and the remains fell to the ground.

"Push forward and run them over."

Twenty-five Terminators formed an iron wall and steadily pressed forward. This was a one-sided massacre. The Taotie's lasers were like tickles to the terracotta warriors, while every shot and punch from the Terminators was deadly.

"That's awesome! This is what real men do!" Xu Tianlong laughed wildly, and with a sweep of his claws, the two Taotie were instantly cut into several pieces, their droppings spilling onto the ground.

"Hold the formation!" Lei Zhan roared, casually swatting away a scumbag who tried to sneak up. "Head to the main hall, don't waste time on these trash!"

"clear!"

The procession moved extremely fast. From the main entrance to the lobby, the 500-meter corridor was covered with Taotie parts, leaving not a single one untouched.

……

Skyblade 7, Throne Hall.

Sumari sat in the large chair, his brows furrowed deeply. He twirled the silver blade in his fingers, no longer as composed as before.

"These useless bunch can't even last a few minutes?" Sumari muttered under his breath. "Looks like I'll have to take matters into my own hands."

"Lu Xiao, is it? You're quite capable to kill Ruoning, but you'll die before Silver Blade."

Sumali curled his lip, his smile particularly cruel. He was already plotting how to turn Lu Xiao into a stick.

boom!!!

The loud noise shattered his illusions. From within the smoke, heavy, rhythmic footsteps grew closer.

Thump. Thump. Thump.

Lu Xiao emerged from the smoke, his golden power sword dragging on the ground, leaving a trail of blinding sparks. Behind him, twenty-five pairs of red eyes gleamed eerily in the darkness. The killing intent was so thick it was almost icy.

Sumari squinted at Lu Xiao's extravagant outfit and couldn't help but laugh.

"Hey, what kind of outfit is this? You think you can stop me by shrinking into an iron shell?" He shook his head, rubbing his finger on the throwing knife. "Naive. Defense is a joke in the face of absolute sharpness."

Lu Xiao stopped and looked down at Su Mali as if he were watching a clown jumping around.

"Sumali. Ruoning is getting impatient waiting down there."

"You dare mention her?!" Sumari's face darkened, her killing intent surging. "Die!"

He flicked his wrist sharply. Whoosh! A flash of silver light and it was gone. Too fast for the naked eye to catch. The next second, the throwing knife was already pressed against Lu Xiao's neck. Su Mali's face was filled with a cruel, confident air.

"It's over. Your head is mine now..."

clang!!!

A sharp, deafening crash echoed through the hall, making everyone's ears ache. Sumari's smile froze on her face, her eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

The silver blade stopped. It was firmly embedded in Lu Xiao's neck, but was blocked by a protective shield. The throwing knife spun wildly, trying to drill through the membrane like a drill, but the thin layer of light remained as steady as Mount Tai.

"This...this is impossible!" Sumari cried out, her voice cracking. "This is Dark Silver! The sharpest thing in the entire universe! How could you possibly withstand it?!"

Lu Xiao moved. He didn't dodge or retreat, but slowly raised his right hand. That large hand, wrapped in heavy terracotta, grabbed directly at the still wildly spinning silver blade with a savage force.

"No! You'll cripple that hand!" Sumari instinctively tried to pull his weapon back.

late.

Snapped!

Lu Xiao gripped the silver blade tightly. He activated the power field of the power gauntlets at full power, and a surge of spiritual energy flowed into his fingers.

"Smash it...!" Lu Xiao roared, his hand tightening suddenly.

Crunch!

A chilling, twisting sound rang out. Under Sumari's gaze, which was as if he were a madman, the supposedly unbreakable throwing knife was actually bent by his hand. Fine cracks quickly spread across the blade.

"No!!!" Sumari was heartbroken; it was his lifeblood.

"Crispy." Lu Xiao scoffed. "That's all?"

boom!

With a crisp sound, the silver blade shattered into fragments in Lu Xiao's palm. Metal powder dripped down between his fingers, jingling softly. Lu Xiao released his grip, brushing the fragments off his palm with a casual gesture, no different from brushing off dirt.

"Is this all you've got? Is this what a butcher is?"

Lu Xiao took heavy steps, approaching Su Mali. Each step felt like stepping on Su Mali's heart.

"You...you stay away!"

Sumari was terrified. His trump card for survival had been crushed with his bare hands, and his courage vanished instantly. He trembled uncontrollably, and the fear that welled up from his very bones made his knees buckle.

"I am the son of King Hua Ye..."

"Shut up."

Lu Xiao flashed to the front, his massive shadow completely obscuring Sumari. Lu Xiao raised his power sword high.

hum!

Golden flames roared up on the blade. It was a fire capable of burning away even the soul. Sumari felt the terror of that fire; it was true annihilation, an end that left not even data behind.

"Don't kill me! I surrender! I'll be your dog!" Sumari collapsed to the ground, frantically kowtowing, snot and tears streaming down his face. "I understand angels! I'm useful! Don't kill me!"

Lu Xiao looked down at him, her eyes filled with disdain rather than pity, as if she were looking at a lump of rotten mud.

"Astartes doesn't listen to the nonsense of surrendered soldiers, much less the nonsense of scum."

Lu Xiao gripped the sword with both hands and raised it above his head. Like an executioner, he read out the final judgment.

"In the name of the Emperor, I hereby sentence you to eternal damnation!"

boom!

The greatsword slashed down, and a golden sea of ​​fire instantly engulfed Sumari.

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

The mournful scream echoed in the hall for a second before ceasing. The firelight dissipated, and Sumari was gone. Even the little data he had left behind in the dark dimension was burned to ashes by this domineering energy along the communication link. This was a killing move that Lu Xiao had only recently learned.
