Chapter 22 I will - set the sea on fire!

The area where An Ming was sent was the most dangerous A-1 star field. In the distance was a clearly visible giant black hole. It seemed as if one could vaguely see an unknown creature lurking in the darkness opening its abyss-like mouth to swallow up everything.

The area where Liuying is located is the safer edge outpost C-14, which is closer to Grammer's mainland. Before the area that An Ming is responsible for is completely occupied, there will only be small batches of insect swarms there.

Of course, the "small batches" here are also quite terrifying, far more than the previous "large batches", but they are just smaller compared to the main battlefield.

The Dead Sea was boiling and rolling under his feet, and the strong smell of blood could be smelled in his breath. It was not the first time that An Ming had fought against the Zerg, but the horrific battlefield of such a scale still made one sigh in awe.

Even after gaining power, he still seems unable to change anything.

From the beginning to the end, An Ming had only one goal, which was to keep Liuying alive.

Looking down from a high altitude, the Sky Front can be clearly observed to be in the shape of an upward arrow. The A-1 outpost is the front-end tip area, responsible for facing the Zerg and bearing the strongest pressure.

This also indirectly shows that An Ming's strength has basically been recognized by the parliament, and his powerful ability has been proven in previous eradication missions.

"Compatibility 50%. Warning. The upper limit is about to be exceeded."

An Ming reached the compatibility area that was difficult for the cyborgs to approach in just a breath. To explain it with Ying's evaluation: An Ming was born to be a Molten Knight warrior.

No one is more suitable to pilot Molten Knight than An Ming.

"70% fit."

"Overload warning."

An Ming slowly pulled out the greatsword that ignited the flame of life with one hand. It was as bright as the sun rising in the star field, and its extreme light could even dispel the endless darkness of the black hole.

The silver-white cavalry began to ignite hot flames, like a walking dawn.

Only humans can truly unlock the upper limit of Molten Knight, achieve an unprecedented 100% compatibility, and demonstrate the true power of Molten Knight.

"I shall--"

"Set the sea on fire!"

The greatsword ignited with a blazing white light like the breaking of dawn, and the extreme heat caused the space to begin to tremble.

"Warning, the threshold has been reached!"

"Warning, overload in progress."

"Compatibility 100%!"

The endless life in the body provided the Molten Knight with infinite power. An Ming, holding a greatsword, fell into the Dead Sea like a bright meteor. After a brief stagnation, the Dead Sea boiled in an instant!

The tranquil Dead Sea was ignited by an unquenchable flame, turning into an insurmountable sea of ​​fire burning in the star field.

Under the roar of flames, the Dead Sea was instantly detonated. The exaggerated flame waves set off one amazing sword energy after another in the star field. After the sword energy passed, the terrifying number of insect swarms were reduced to black powder and silently melted into the star field.

The Zerg swarm, which originally seemed to have no end, now experienced a long window of time. An Ming bought extremely precious buffer time for the empire, allowing the cavalry to repair and catch their breath.

The Empire's fleet has finally assembled at this moment, and with the cover of the protective net, they began to charge their main guns. At the same time, dense laser rain fire began to carry out a covering attack on the Zerg.

An Ming could only hear his own breathing, and he didn't know how much time had passed. When he regained consciousness, the swarm of insects in front of him had been repelled.

The main gun tore a huge gap inside the Zerg, temporarily stopping the Zerg's supply of troops. The Empire repelled the Zerg's first wave of offensive at a terrible cost.

An Ming maintained 100% compatibility throughout the entire battle. Theoretically, this is a completely impossible miracle, unless...

"From the beginning, I was piloting Unit-01."

An Ming looked towards the shadow in the corner. That guy always liked to observe everything in such a dark place.

Ying clapped his hands and walked out of the darkness. There was a bit of fanaticism and satisfaction in his eyes when he looked at An Ming. "I was right about you, An Ming... You will achieve the original goal of the Molten Knight Project--"

"Slay God!"

At the beginning of the Molten Knight plan, in addition to resisting the Zerg swarm, there was a greater preset goal.

That is to kill [Reproduction] with human flesh and blood, completely end the insect plague in the universe, and at the same time lead the empire to unify the star field.

The Molten Knight Plan ultimately only achieved the goal of resisting the Zerg, and killing gods was ultimately just an almost impossible pipe dream.

Unit-01 is the origin of Molten Knight and also the beginning.

The original source of the material is difficult to trace, but from rumors it is known that there is breeding blood left in the iron cavalry.

But human blood cannot ignite the blood of reproduction. Even all life is just a drop in the bucket, unless the burning life is almost infinite.

"You're crazy."

An Ming frowned slightly. He could only sense a sense of madness from Ying. This man would probably do anything to achieve his goal.

Shadow stretched out his right arm, and it fell under the flickering light. "When I was a child, I almost died in that disaster... I saw with my own eyes the huge monster that covered the sky and destroyed everything."

"I can feel the wound burning."

“It’s coming.”

An Ming and Ying's figures crossed each other's paths, and An Ming's footsteps slowly stopped under the light, with his back to Ying in the darkness. "I have a reason why I cannot lose."

Ying watched An Ming's departing back, then looked at the transformation device in his palm, "There is only one last step left."

The biggest difference between humans, cyborgs, and insect swarms is that humans all have passionate hearts.

This will will become the final piece of the puzzle.

"Have you seen An Ming? He is very tall...Ah, An Ming!"

In front of the checkpoint not far away, Liuying waved her hands excitedly after seeing An Ming's appearance, jumped over the fortifications nimbly and ran to An Ming, and threw herself into his arms without saying a word.

The two little hands tightly hugged An Ming's waist. The two of them didn't say a word, just feeling the warmth of each other's bodies.

"The skirt is dirty. I'll buy you a new one when we get home."

"You are the one, dirty as a puppy on the street!" Liuying touched the wound on An Ming's arm with some distress, and added softly: "Take him home and let me take good care of him."

The two smiled at each other, both feeling lucky that nothing happened to the other.

"Why are you here? It's very dangerous," An Ming was forcibly pressed on a bench beside him by Liuying. When he looked up, he saw a roll of white bandage viciously wrapped around his arm.

Liuying pouted and said unhappily, "It's you who insisted on coming to such a dangerous place. What if something happens without me? You can't take good care of yourself. I, I will be heartbroken."

Her tone was still Liuying's standard angry tone, but An Ming still felt warm in his heart. He gently held her left hand while she was not noticing, and immediately felt his whole body filled with strength.

"How can I bandage you like this?"

Liuying sat next to An Ming, pressed her soft body against his side, and carefully wrapped the bandage with one hand.

During this time, she could feel An Ming's direct gaze, which made Liuying's cheeks a little hot and dyed with a charming blush.
