Chapter 126 Turning the Tide
Chapter 126 Turning the Tide
Lin Shushu was right next to him, and she noticed Mo Ze's unusual behavior immediately. She followed Mo Ze's gaze and also noticed something unusual.
Before he could say anything more, Mo Ze had already floated into the air. Lin Shushu followed closely behind.
The two simultaneously channeled their spiritual energy, creating a protective shield around the courtyard.
From the moment Mo Ze realized something was wrong until now, only a few seconds had passed, and their actions had attracted the attention of everyone in the Fifth Army.
Although they were surprised by the two men's actions, their military instincts told them that something bad must have happened, so they gathered together, ready to take their next move.
Meanwhile, Lan Ze, who had been keeping a close eye on the enemy, also noticed their movements. When he saw "Flame Burst" appear, the fury in his eyes was no less than that in Mo Ze's.
As a high-ranking general, he naturally knew the power of "Flame Burst." If the enemy were to actually use it, everyone on his side would perish here.
A wave of terror washed over him. Even though he knew it was too late, Lan Ze still wanted to make one last effort. His urgent voice rang in everyone's ears, "Everyone, get out of here!"
Hearing Lan Ze's shout and recalling Mo Ze and the other person's actions, everyone became even more certain that something was wrong.
Before they could take any action, a point of light, accompanied by a shockwave, hurtled rapidly toward the courtyard, with flames faintly exploding behind it.
As the distance grew closer, the light spot also grew larger, and in an instant it was right in front of them. At this point, everyone realized what was coming towards them.
Fear filled everyone's eyes; no one had expected the death knell to appear so suddenly.
It was too late. Lan Ze's eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't vent the hatred in his heart. He looked around at his comrades-in-arms, each of whom he had fought alongside, but unfortunately, they were all going to die tragically here.
Unable to bear witnessing the tragic state of everyone in the end, he closed his eyes.
Because the protective shield set up by Lin Shushu and Mo Ze was transparent, and given their deep knowledge of the power of "Flame Burst," neither Lan Ze nor the others in the Fifth Army believed they could escape this calamity.
The expected explosion did not occur. Lan Ze opened his eyes in confusion, and the surprise in his eyes was no less than when he saw the "Flame Explosion".
However, at this moment, the surprise was accompanied by an irrepressible joy.
The courtyard seemed to be covered by a protective membrane. Outside the membrane, the aftereffects of the "firestorm" were still there, and the falling sparks were still burning, turning the sky red with sparks.
What happened? Lan Ze stared blankly at the scene before him, his mouth agape, unable to utter a sound for a long time.
Many others shared the same shocked expression as him, and many witnessed the miracle that had just occurred.
As the light struck them at the speed of light, the white light even pierced through their eyes and into their hearts.
However, just as they were awaiting death, they discovered that the light was being blocked by something.
A transparent protective shield seemed to rise around the courtyard, protecting them perfectly. Outside the courtyard, the light, unable to advance any further, immediately exploded, instantly obliterating everything around it, leaving only raging flames.
After a long while, the crowd, who had been completely silent, finally let out a series of gasps of amazement. They hugged each other, expressing their joy at surviving the ordeal.
After the initial excitement, the quick-witted person realized, "It's Boss Mo, it must be them."
Upon hearing this, everyone recalled Mo Ze and Lin Shushu's actions before the incident; they had taken off from the ground, which had shocked everyone.
However, because the change happened so quickly, they had no time to express their shock before facing the threat of death.
Thinking of this, everyone looked up at the sky and saw Mo Ze and Lin Shushu standing in mid-air, making some kind of hand gesture.
The crowd's eyes shone with admiration. Although they couldn't understand what the two were doing, they could guess that it was related to what was happening before their eyes.
They didn't make a sound to disturb them, but simply watched quietly.
They had long heard of Marshal Mo and his fiancée's remarkable feat on J56, and besides admiration, they also felt regret at not being able to witness it in person.
Now that they have witnessed the two men turn the tide, how can they not feel admiration?
Lin Shushu and Mo Ze were still reinforcing the protective shield. The power of the "Flame Burst" was not to be underestimated. Although the shield had stopped it from entering, it had also been subjected to considerable impact, and some parts of it had even been damaged.
The lingering effects of the "firestorm" are still present, and if the protective shield is not reinforced in time, the courtyard will still be affected.
However, the repairs didn't take long, as setting up a protective shield doesn't take much time either. Soon, they were back on the ground.
The moment their feet touched the ground, a group of people swarmed around them, stopping five steps away and staring intently at them.
"Boss Mo, Miss Lin, thank you!" Everyone saluted the two and expressed their gratitude. If it weren't for them, everyone standing here would have been dead long ago, not even leaving ashes.
Having accepted the gift, the two men, having done so, would not feign modesty and prevent the other party from expressing gratitude.
Although everyone was still very excited, there were more important things to do right now.
Lan Ze thanked the two of them and was about to leave to plan the next counterattack.
"Wait, I'll go with you." Mo Ze called out to Lan Ze, who was about to leave, and then said to Lin Shushu, "Shushu, wait for me here, I'll be right back."
Lin Shushu nodded; she knew the anger in Mo Ze's heart. What happened today was too egregious, and as a fellow soldier, he couldn't ignore it.
Upon hearing that Mo Ze was going to accompany him, Lan Ze was overjoyed. With this great deity by his side, what did he have to worry about?
On Luo Shen's side, after launching the "Flame Blast," he immediately led his men to flee. In his view, no one could survive the "Flame Blast," so there was no need to go to the scene to confirm.
As for Cheng Hu and Wang Hai, well, they were just unlucky enough to be captured by the military, so this was a form of revenge for them.
"Reporting to the leader, mission accomplished." Upon receiving his subordinate's report, Luo Shen expressed satisfaction and ordered them to withdraw immediately. He didn't ask any further questions about his cousin, Cheng Hu; the outcome was obvious anyway.
Just as the Flame Organization members were about to leave, they ran into the planetary garrison that had come to their aid.
The garrison commander, Mo Li, was a member of the Mo family, and Mo Ze had to call him his paternal uncle. He noticed the unusual scene at the Fifth Army Group's garrison from afar; the sight of half the sky turning red was alarming. He knew things were going badly and he was too late.
Although they arrived late, they still had to see what had happened. Just as they were about to arrive, they encountered members of the Blazing Flame Organization in mid-air.
Mo Li had a gut feeling that this group of people were not good people, and since they were coming from that direction, he immediately intercepted their aircraft.
The members of the Blazing Flame Organization were already eager to escape, and when they ran into the planet's garrison, they panicked and launched a preemptive attack, attempting to seize the initiative and escape smoothly.
The two sides clashed in the air, and by the time Mo Ze arrived with his men, the two sides were locked in a fierce battle.
