By the coast, a hundred-meter Star Gate shimmered with flowing light.
Beyond the Star Gate, an army forged of steel stretched as far as the eye could see.
Above the Sky Dome, squadrons of fighter jets streaked across, weaving an iron curtain.
In the distant ocean, scores of aircraft carriers, destroyers, and frigates dotted the seascape, ready for action.
All cannons were aimed at the figure who emerged from the Star Gate.
"In the name of the Federation Command Center, I order you to stand down, or what awaits you is total war," said the voice.
"War?"

Gu Jinlai took a step forward, and his form swelled against the wind, in an instant growing from less than two meters tall to a colossal Chaos Demon God thousands of kilometers high, emitting the brilliance of a white dwarf star from his being, his own gravity causing thunder and lightning, as well as tsunamis and tides within a thousand-mile radius.
He looked down...
At the war weapons that seemed like toys.
He reached out, and a hydrogen bomb fell into his hand.

Within him, the electron-degenerate star core released Helium, Helium elements expanded, and the terrifying high temperature instantly caused Deuterium and Tritium, Hydrogen's isotopes, to fuse, the energy bursting forth, forming a blazing white brilliance on the ocean's surface that was like igniting a sun.
Before this sun's energy could be released, he clapped his hands together, and the dazzling white, mixed with heat in the billions of degrees, was compressed and sealed within his palms, not a fragment escaping.

"I think, you should choose peace." he suggested.

Meanwhile, the defensive installations around the Star Spirit Platform launched another round of missiles.


Without exception, the missiles fired were the Star Shining Federation's latest "Black Arrow" hypersonic missiles, introduced into service in 2030, specially designed to intercept and destroy extremely fast-moving targets.


The speed of these missiles reached an astonishing fifteen times the speed of sound, far surpassing the reaction limit of the Cheng Ying Mecha.


Due to the Cheng Ying Mecha's rapid approach, being only less than three hundred miles away from the Star Spirit Platform, the Star Shining Federation generously launched sixteen missiles in one breath.


A full saturation interception if ever there was one.


"Rich and overpowering, I can't dodge this!"


His Divine Sense instantly activated a special weapon located in the chest of the mecha, as energy continuously flowed into it from the reactor.
