Chapter 403 Liang Bing's Choice
Chapter 403 Liang Bing's Choice
Just then, six Skyblade warships, which had been lurking in the outer space of Kunsa Star, suddenly appeared not far from Hua Ye's fleet.
Without Ruoning's help in cracking the Tianren series' combat engine, the old-era Tiangong and Taotie flagships, those junk ships, simply couldn't detect the Tianren's hiding place.
They were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the Heavenly Blade!
The angels, the scum, and the gluttons once again engaged in a fierce battle.
However, Angel Yan did not participate in the surprise attack. After killing Ruoning, she flew towards the arena below.
Having failed to eliminate Morgana this time, she absolutely cannot afford to lose He Xi's destiny.
In particular, we must not let such a powerful weapon as Destiny fall into the hands of a wicked god like Morgana who is extremely skilled in wormholes.
"Huh? You're going to be ruthless even with Rose?"
Upon seeing Yan Fei arrive, Morgana promptly stepped forward to mock him.
"If Rose is willing to fight for you, what does it matter if we have to be ruthless?"
Yan did not argue with Morgana about the fact that she had already shown mercy, but simply went along with what the other party said.
As the Queen of Angels, she would never admit to having any power left over to demons.
"I'm not done with you about this."
Morgana was unaware that Angel Yan had shown her mercy because of Rose.
She was still upset that the aftershocks of the Heavenly Blade Judgment had almost hurt Rose.
"Heh, ever finished?"
Yan chuckled lightly, seemingly not taking Morgana's words to heart.
"Ruoning has become too arrogant, thinking that he is invincible just because he has obtained the Star Destiny. What about you?"
Seeing Yan's somewhat arrogant attitude, Morgana immediately realized that this battle was inevitable.
However, both her Apocalypse Engine and Demon One Engine were running low on power, and she was genuinely a little apprehensive about fighting a King-level opponent under these circumstances.
“I’m very low-key, but He Xi is too amazing. She entrusted her Star Fate to Ruoning to lure you out, because you said you wanted Keisha’s arsenal.”
Yan glanced at Rose standing next to Morgana, then turned her gaze back to Morgana.
Indeed, she failed He Xi's plan and did not take the opportunity to eliminate Morgana and Ruoning together.
But she doesn't regret it.
This is all for her to be the only one a thousand years later.
"Yes, I want Keisha's armory, and then I'll give it to Time-Space Rose."
Seeing that Yan was staring intently at her, Morgana took a few steps to the side.
She also used her Apocalypse Engine to search for any other angels lying in ambush nearby.
"I appreciate your kindness, but if the angel disagrees, I won't accept it."
At this moment, Rose spoke.
Her meaning was clear: she did not want to be enemies with the angels.
"Heh, then, Angel Queen Yan, do you agree?"
Morgana was instantly relieved when she found out that Yan was the only angel around.
And his gaze toward Yan was full of hostility.
"I disagree"
Yan frowned, her fists clenched tightly.
She knew that Morgana had taken the Star Fate first, and now, facing this demon queen, she was still somewhat powerless.
Just as Yan and Morgana were exchanging electric sparks with their glares, the battle in outer space on Kunsa was nearing its end.
Without Ruoning, Hua Ye's fleet was no match for the Tianren warships' attacks.
In no time at all, half of the Taotie's main ship was destroyed.
Taotie and Tianza were also forced into retreat by the angel legion!
"Our forces have suffered heavy losses in an ambush by the angelic army! Prepare for retreat!" —A certain commander from the Celestial Scum.
"Tiangong is preparing to evacuate Kunsa!" said the captain of the Tiangong.
"The Taotie fleet will cover the retreat of the Tiangong!" (Commander of the Taotie fleet)
Under Hua Ye's command, the Tiangong and the Taotie flagship guarding it flew away into the distance.
At this moment, Hua Ye was looking at his golden throne with a frustrated expression, feeling resentful.
He didn't expect Angel Yan to ambush him with her troops, which not only prevented him from capturing Liang Bing alive, but also cost him a bunch of his men and his spaceship.
How could he possibly be in a good mood?
"Your Majesty, is Ruoning dead?"
Seeing his king looking depressed, Tianzha Panla inappropriately asked about Ruoning.
"It must be dead; I can't detect it here anymore."
As he spoke, Hua Ye pointed to his head.
However, he had no intention of holding a grudge against Panla, after all, he was well aware of Panla's absolute loyalty to him.
"Oh, what a pity."
Panla sighed.
But he dared not say that his king, Ruoning, had done anything wrong.
Since they discovered Angel Yan's whereabouts at that time, it was not wrong for his king to want to retreat in time.
Sacrificing the pawn to save the king is the absolutely correct course of action.
Undisputed.
"No pity, those overly arrogant women, humph, we still have Liang Bing, don't we?"
Hua Ye snorted coldly.
He had now made up his mind not to capture Liang Bing alive.
Since Angel Yan had ruined his chance to capture Liang Bing alive, he might as well just destroy Liang Bing.
Thus, his plan to kill two birds with one stone could be considered a success.
It's just a pity that I can't thoroughly humiliate that little bitch's body.
"Huh? What?"
Panla didn't quite understand what his king meant.
"Hmph, Yan has laid an ambush, let's retreat first. Liang Bing probably won't be able to escape this time."
Hua Ye appeared confident and composed.
They then used a black hole engine to create a miniature black hole in the atmosphere of Kunsa.
And that black hole is directly facing the Ice Kingdom on the surface of Kunsa Star!
After releasing the black hole, Hua Ye left the star system with the fleet.
Meanwhile, Yan and Morgana were still locked in a standoff in the arena, completely unaware of what was happening in outer space.
"Is this to be another battle between kings?"
Although Morgana is currently low on energy, she cannot afford to lose in terms of momentum.
They were two against one, so they weren't completely without a chance of winning.
Just as Morgana and Yan were locked in a fierce battle, a message came from Ato on Demon One.
'Reporting to the Queen, Hua Ye left behind a black hole during his retreat.'
At this moment, the miniature black hole in the atmosphere begins to release gravity. It is estimated that the black hole will reach the critical point in an hour and then instantly devour Kunsa!
Even before it had fully released its gravity, some rubble and buildings in the Cold Ice Royal City were sucked into the air!
It's clear that Hua Ye is determined to destroy Liang Bing.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have given the black hole such a short time.
Kunsa is an asteroid, so its atmosphere isn't very far from the surface. Compared to Earth, Kunsa is less than one-tenth the size of Earth, which is why Morgana likes Earth so much.
Seeing the surrounding ruins being sucked into the sky, the three women realized that danger was imminent.
"Hua Ye released... a... artificial black hole?!"
Morgana was shocked to see a black hole above her head frantically devouring the soil and rocks of the Ice Kingdom.
"When Hua Ye attacked the Heavenly Court of Merlo, it was because he could create black holes; he's a madman."
Yan wasn't in the mood to fight Morgana anymore.
Immediately use the Angel Channel to order the Skyblade battleships in outer space of Kunsa to evacuate quickly.
"This is a miniature artificial black hole. If it's not shut down, the entire Kunsa will be sucked in before long."
As soon as Morgana finished speaking, Yan and Qiangwei were pulled away from the arena ground by the black hole's gravity.
However, Morgana did not move; she remained firmly on the ground, though she dared not move rashly.
Because the suction force from above was just too strong.
"rose!"
Seeing the rose being sucked away, Morgana cried out in alarm.
Rose also did her best to break through the effects of the altered spatial medium and forcibly opened a wormhole in an attempt to escape.
However, her wormhole only allows her to advance less than ten meters.
In addition, the black hole's gravity is constantly pulling, so the distance Rose travels using the wormhole each time is not much different from the distance she is pulled away from.
It's fair to say she's been stuck in the same place.
"The wormhole algorithm is somewhat out of control."
Rose kept trying to force open the wormhole to return to the ground, but all her efforts were in vain.
At this moment, all she could do was waste her mental energy desperately calculating the wormhole; there was nothing else she could do.
"Hua Ye changed the structure of the space wormhole."
Morgana understood perfectly well that the spatial medium here had not been restored.
With insufficient energy, she had great difficulty saving herself, let alone saving Rose.
At this moment, Angel Yan received support from He Xi, who was far away in Melo.
Her angel king silver armor was enveloped in a dazzling blue light, and then she instantly rushed out of the icy royal city affected by the black hole's gravity!
'Your Majesty, Angel Yan has used some kind of void ability to break free. The black hole's power is still increasing. Data is being transmitted to you.'
When Ato saw Angel Yan escape from Devil One, he immediately realized that his queen must also have the ability to escape the gravity of a black hole.
So he sent the black hole data he had analyzed to Morgana.
"If I were to operate my engine at full power, the force of a black hole of this magnitude could annihilate it along with me. However... I might also disappear."
Morgana watched the rose struggling in the air, her mind in turmoil.
If she chooses to leave independently at this point, then Rose is definitely doomed.
With Rose's death, all her years of hard work and time-space genes were gone.
Besides, she really couldn't bear to see anything happen to Rose...
'Your Majesty, what do you intend to do?!'
Upon hearing his queen say that, Ator, Morgana's confidant, immediately guessed his queen's thoughts.
"Rose can't hold on much longer..."
Seeing the rose struggling so hard, Morgana felt a heavy heart.
Now, she has to make a choice.
'Once this black hole reaches its critical mass, Kunsa will be instantly swallowed up! We have to escape this star system quickly, but Kunsa… well…'
At this moment, Ato on Devil One was also very anxious.
Although the location where Devil One is docked is far from the black hole, it has not been affected for the time being.
But once the black hole reaches the critical point, Kunza and everything around Kunza will be instantly swallowed up by the gravity of the black hole's eruption.
He now truly hopes his queen will return soon and lead their demon army away from this dangerous place.
Yan had already escaped Kunsa Star and escaped the gravitational pull of the black hole.
The black hole is expanding rapidly, and its gravity is increasing.
Not only was it absorbing the surface of Kunsa Star, but the wreckage of the Taotie warships destroyed by the Heavenly Blade was also rapidly sucked away by the black hole.
Fortunately, the six Skyblades had already left, so Angel Yan didn't need to worry about the safety of her legion.
Seeing the black hole's mass rapidly increasing, Yan knew that Kunsa was doomed.
Unable to save Rose, she sighed and prepared to leave.
Just as she was about to fly away from this star field, a streak of white-purple meteors streaked past her eyes.
Yan knew that the shooting star was a person, but she couldn't see what that person looked like.
But she couldn't care less about that now, and quickly flew towards a safe area in the distance.
Inside the arena, Morgana tried to open a wormhole to pull Rose back, but due to insufficient energy, she was unable to position the wormhole behind Rose.
Rose was unwilling to be swallowed by the black hole. Her brain (dark dimension) worked frantically, desperately fighting against the altered spatial medium around her.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, the wormhole she opened could only teleport her forward a little bit.
At this moment, she was getting further and further away from the ground.
"Your Majesty! The wormhole method is no longer effective in saving Rose!"
Atto is now extremely anxious.
To be honest, he really hoped his queen would give up on Rose.
The only correct choice now is to sacrifice the pawn to save the king.
We must not let small gains lead to big losses!
Morgana did not respond to Atto. She paused on the ground for a few seconds, then made a snap decision and flew toward the rose in the air.
Rose was still struggling desperately when she saw Liang Bing come over and take her hand, and she was stunned for a moment.
Morgana looked at Rose with deep affection, then slammed Rose to the ground.
Because the black hole's gravity was too strong, Rose wasn't flung to the ground; she was only less than ten meters away from Morgana.
"I'm sorry, Rose. I can't make up for the damage I caused to your father and your planet..."
Looking at the roses not far away, Morgana's eyes welled up with tears.
Her tone also became extremely sorrowful.
It seems she has already made a choice between her and the rose.
'Your Majesty, leave! Leave that place quickly! Your Majesty! Leave quickly! Your Majesty!!'
Ato, aboard Devil One, already understood what his queen was about to do, and could only keep shouting loudly.
No matter how much he shouted, his queen did not respond to him even once.
What are you going to do?
Rose saw the tears in Liang Bing's eyes.
Coupled with the farewell tone she uttered, Rose seemed to have a vague idea of what was going on.
"Demon One, assist me with all your might and annihilate this black hole! Warriors of the demons, you have the right to know what kind of goddess your queen truly is!"
Morgana did not respond to Rose immediately, but instead issued an order to Demon One in her capacity as the Demon Queen.
"Rose, can't you say something to cheer me up?"
Morgana knew she didn't have much time left, but in the final moments of her demonic career.
What she cared about most was that red-haired girl who was just as rebellious as she was in her youth...
Looking at "her" face, her eyes involuntarily became a little moist.
But in the end, she didn't actually shed a tear.
But those tears...
It quietly seeped into her heart...
"I cannot forgive you for killing my father, nor can I forgive you for invading my homeland, but I cannot live without you now, Liang Bing. The warmest place in this world is..."
Before Rose could finish speaking, Morgana ascended towards the black hole.
She wrapped herself in her mechanical bat wings and then changed back into her former angelic attire.
Yes, even in her final moments, she chose to face the end of her life as an angel.
