'Is this still Moscow?' The question on the plane was on everyone's mind.
Joseph looked at the palace topped with a Gundam statue and felt a sense of déjà vu.
"There, that witch, she's in that palace." Alicia could already sense the witch's reaction; she was in that palace, and the statue at the top of the palace seemed to be the witch.
"The Soviet Palace?!" Joseph suddenly exclaimed in shock and anger, "This is the Soviet Palace!!!"
"What is that?" Alicia noticed that Joseph had become incredibly angry.
"A miracle that was not completed in the Soviet era! It was once hailed as a symbol of the Soviet Union!" Joseph was a person from the Soviet era, so he naturally knew about that great building that was not completed in the Soviet era, the Palace of Soviets.
But now, the Soviet Palace has been built, but the statue of the mentor at the top has been replaced with a statue of an evil witch, which is a complete humiliation!
"Damn witch!!!" Joseph gritted his teeth.
At this moment, Bronya, who was inside the Palace of Truth, also suddenly felt a familiar Honkai energy reaction.
"???" Bronya was completely confused. "Why did Ellie and the others just rush over here?"
"Hmm, why didn't the patrol outside spot Alicia?" Bronya suddenly noticed something else: her AI adjutant hadn't alerted her.
"Sofia, are there no enemy responses around Moscow?"
Bronya asked the AI adjutant
“Commander, nothing found,” the adjutant replied.
Bronya now understood that the base's detection radar had failed to detect Alicia and the others.
However, she was very puzzled. Although Bronya knew that Alicia had come to Eastern Europe after discovering Alicia's situation, shouldn't Alicia and the others have gone to rescue people in other cities? Why did they come straight to Moscow?
Bronya wasn't worried, since her Honkai energy already exceeded 3000 HW, and she also had three divisions in Moscow.
"Three?" Bronya carefully examined the Honkai energy reactions and it was clear that there were only three Honkai energy reactions.
As for the human beside them, Bronya ignored him.
“My army…” Bronya smiled with confidence.
她留在莫斯科的3个现代化合成师是专门强化过，且作为布洛妮娅自己的近卫军，每个近卫合成师包括150辆坦克、120辆装甲步兵战车、155mm口径和122mm口径的自行火炮加起来140辆还有数十架直升机等等。
The Honkai army, consisting of three Guardian Synthetic Divisions, has a total combat strength of over 30,000.
Moreover, they are fearless, they will be resurrected after death, and they will fight to the very last one.
"The opposing force is 3 against 3."
"The advantage is in my hands!"
As Alicia and her companions' plane drew closer to Moscow Airport, anti-aircraft guns erected throughout Moscow opened fire on the hidden aircraft under Bronya's orders.
The plane was forced to reveal itself.
However, just before Alicia and the others were about to force Joseph to land, the plane's radio communication suddenly received a message.
Not long after, Alicia released a huge pink ball of light, carrying several people out of the civilian aircraft and landing in Moscow despite the anti-aircraft fire of Bronya's army.
Once the civilian aircraft was unprotected, it was torn to shreds by anti-aircraft fire in a very short time.
"Leave it to us!" Alicia saw a large amount of anti-aircraft fire focused on the pink orb she released, and then heard Muirsey and Emilia talking to each other.
Muirsey and Emilia immediately pulled out their respective staffs and gripped them tightly. Then, a thin golden beam of light flew out of the pink ball of light and rose directly into the clouds in the sky above Moscow.
The moisture in the clouds was forcibly pulled off by Muirsay, and a torrential downpour began to fall on Moscow.
"Ice Puppet!" Emilia shouted, and her icy blue magic instantly flew towards the falling rain.
The rainwater was visibly and rapidly condensed into ice balls, and these ice balls began to grow hands and feet made of ice.
With the cover provided by the numerous puppets formed by Emilia's ice magic, Alicia immediately manipulated the pink orb to separate herself, and then fell alone directly towards the Palace of Truth.
However, Bronya immediately realized Alicia's intentions; she had no intention of fighting Alicia one-on-one.
"Defeat my army first!!!" Bronya's voice reached Alicia's ears, and then Alicia saw Bronya fly out of the Palace of Truth and land in the Honkai army that was waiting in battle.
Chapter 366 The First Great Collapse (6) Annihilation
"boom!!!"
"BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"
Deafening cannon fire and the resounding crashes of artillery shells echoed throughout Moscow.
This is a scene of a modern army battling a magical army.
Hundreds of ice golems condensed from the sky and then fell to the ground.
The deafening anti-aircraft fire was relentlessly attacking these aerial ice golems.
Large numbers of tanks and self-propelled artillery are firing continuously at the ice golems that have landed on the ground in Moscow. Every second, ice golems that have landed and started charging are blown to pieces.
Infantrymen armed with rocket launchers sat atop armored vehicles, firing them from the edge of the battlefield towards the center. Rifles were temporarily useless in this battle, at least not against the ice golems, as they couldn't penetrate their defenses.
More anti-armor firepower is being deployed.
But it was raining in Moscow, and the rainwater was constantly repairing the damage to the frozen golems. In addition, the rainwater dripped onto the tanks and self-propelled artillery, and then quickly began to freeze.
If it drips onto the infantry, it will freeze them into ice blocks in a very short time.
In addition, above those self-propelled artillery pieces, a dozen or so ice golems would suddenly begin to condense along with the rain and fall towards the self-propelled artillery pieces or anti-aircraft guns.
Bronya was staring intently at the pink ball of light in the center of the battlefield, wondering what Alicia and the others were up to, just squatting on the battlefield and getting bombed.
Bronya, seated atop a sleek, silver-blue mecha, begins mobilizing the air force stationed in Moscow, along with tactical nuclear missiles ready for launch at any moment.
"No matter what, I won this game."
Bronya smiled.
Alicia and the other two definitely did not have enough Honkai energy to withstand Bronya's army's attack, not to mention that they also had to create those rain and ice puppets, which further increased their Honkai energy consumption.
Moreover, Bronya still has a lot of Honkai energy left to use.
At this moment, in the pink light cluster at the center of the battlefield
Joseph was anxiously awaiting news from the radio equipment in front of him, which had been detached directly from the plane and was used to communicate with the outside world and locate his position.
Alicia was maintaining the pink light, and she was looking at Emilia and Muirse with concern.
Emilia's magic power was nearly exhausted. Although the battle had not been going on for long, Emilia's magic power was being used up very quickly. All the ice puppets were controlled by Emilia.
If it weren't for Muirse's full effort in transferring her own magic to Emilia, Emilia would have collapsed long ago.
However, Muels needed to reserve some magic power for future coordinated battles, and the magic power he could transfer to Emilia was already nearing its limit.
Time passed second by second, and just as Alicia was about to use her magic, she suddenly heard a shout from the side.
"They're here!!!" Joseph shouted, clenching his fist, and then immediately looked up at the sky.
Rain was still falling from the azure sky, raindrops that Muirsey had pulled from the clouds, but now another phenomenon had appeared in the sky—a 'meteor shower'.
Those were the exhaust plumes of countless missiles.
Of course, Alicia and the others weren't foolishly standing still to take the bombs and fight back.
When their plane was discovered, the remaining high command of Russia had already spotted the plane flying alone to Moscow and then contacted them via radio.
After exchanging a few words with Alicia and the others, the remaining Russian high command had a simple task: to unleash every missile that could fly toward Moscow, the Russian capital.
No matter what kind of missile it is, as long as it can fly to Moscow, they will all be hurled at it.
It was a simple and crude solution, but it was the only feasible plan.
Ground and air forces were unable to bypass Bronya's troops outside Moscow; the only support they could provide was various types of missiles.
As for the other consequences of launching missiles at Moscow... what consequences could there be? The remaining Russian leadership was well aware that after this war, Russia would inevitably decline, and even civil war and further disintegration were not impossible.
Since the remaining Russian high command had chosen to act recklessly, they were determined to avenge the witch who slaughtered Moscow and many surrounding cities!
This is also why Alicia and her group chose to confront Bronya's army head-on in Moscow.
They are waiting for human reinforcements to guide the barrage of missiles toward Moscow.
Bronya's brain went blank for a moment before the missile rain began.
"Didn't I wipe out the entire Russian high command in Moscow? Why are missiles still being deployed?" Bronya was somewhat confused. Where did the missiles come from when almost the entire top leadership was wiped out?
Bronya captured the souls of the Russian high-ranking officials and fiercely questioned them about what had happened.
The Russian high command, in a state of spiritual flux, naturally couldn't resist Bronya and spoke their minds directly.
Simply eliminating a country's top leadership to cripple its military is pure wishful thinking, especially since Bronya's army is recklessly deploying Honkai energy collection devices that could trigger Honkai destruction throughout various cities.
Not only is Moscow out of contact, but many cities have become ghost towns, and the news has spread like wildfire.
Seeing the expressionless faces of the Russian high-ranking officials, Bronya always felt that these guys were subtly mocking her.
"..." Bronya stared blankly at the impending rain of missiles.
"Hmph," she turned and sat in the Heavy Bunny 0019 mech, then raised the Honkai Energy Shield.
It's impossible to take down Bronya with just this barrage of missiles!
"BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"
The entire city of Moscow was shaking violently. Thousands of missiles—all the missiles Russia could launch at Moscow—were fired, yet Bronya emerged virtually unscathed from this terrifying saturation attack.
But her army and bases are a different story.
"BOOM!!!" The Moscow nuclear power plant was also detonated. These nuclear power plants were built by Bronya to provide electricity for the base, but now they became accomplices in the destruction of Bronya's base.
In addition, the tactical nuclear missile silos also exploded, before any tactical nuclear missiles were launched.
Bronya only had time to cover some of the armored units around her with the Iron Curtain device; the majority of the troops engaged in battle, as well as the technology and troop deployment buildings constructed in Moscow, were completely destroyed by saturation missile bombardment.
Bronya watched this scene from inside her Heavy Bunny 0019 mech, a look of annoyance appearing on her delicate face.
“Gone…all gone!” she gritted her teeth.
Amidst the dust and smoke caused by the saturation bombing, a flash of pink light suddenly appeared.
Chapter 367 The First Great Collapse (7) Bronya feels she has a great advantage
The dazzling pink light was so brilliant and flawless that Bronya was momentarily stunned. However, by the time she came to her senses, the silent pink energy arrow had already struck the mech piloted by Bronya.
The layer of black and red particles covering Bronya's Heavy Bunny 0019 mech withstood the pink arrow, or rather, ignored it. Like an egg hitting a stone, the pink arrow instantly exploded into countless pink light spots.
However, when the arrows exploded, they also took away the remaining troops around Bronya.
But Bronya didn't care and calmly continued to put the Iron Curtain on herself.
As the thick smoke dissipated, Alicia, holding a pink bow and arrow, gazed at the black and red mecha, her brows furrowing slightly, a hint of doubt rising in her heart.
What is this?
Just as the missiles were landing, Alicia saw a black and red light suddenly appear around Bronya's mech. It not only withstood the missiles but also blocked Alicia's attack.
Even though the attack failed, Alicia was not discouraged. She drew her bow again, gathered her magic power, and a second pink energy arrow condensed on the bow. This time, Alicia poured even more magic power into it.
"Sia!" Muels suddenly called out, and Alicia stopped shooting the arrow she was about to release.
The rain, which had been gradually decreasing in the sky, suddenly surged, but it was only limited to the area around Bronya.
"?" Bronya didn't know what Alicia and the others were up to, but she didn't care. Although her army and base were gone, that was only part of the army in Moscow. Bronya still had a lot more troops, just not in Moscow.
"0019, Fire!!!"
Since her army was temporarily unable to deal with Alicia, Bronya had no choice but to play along with Alicia herself.
At Bronya's command, Heavy Bunny 0019 immediately deployed the two shoulder-mounted cannons on its back and opened fire on Alicia and the others without hesitation.
This mech was a large toy that Bronya created by hand, but it wasn't just for show. However, Bronya simply decided to play with Alicia, so she didn't activate any more weapons.
Bronya, sitting in 0019, glanced at the more than 3000 HW of Honkai energy she still had and gave a soft hum.
She feels she has a significant advantage now.
Two clusters of black and red particles flew out from the two cannons on 0019's shoulders.
Alicia, who had just gathered her magic, immediately sensed that something was wrong with the two black and red particle clusters. She quickly rose up, pulled Emilia, who had exhausted her magic, and flew away. Muels left two mimicking water shapes in place and took Joseph away.
The two black and red particle clusters exploded instantly at the spot where Alicia and the others had just been, forming a circular black and red particle mist nearly a hundred meters wide. Alicia in the sky saw water-like objects and radio equipment, as well as some ice golems and tank wreckage, instantly pulverized under the mist.
What is this thing?
Alicia gripped Emilia's hand tightly, her expression grave. Her intuition told her that the dark red mist was also extremely dangerous to her.
Bronya leisurely maneuvered 0019 to raise the anti-aircraft gun on its back. The next second, a storm of anti-aircraft shells instantly enveloped Alicia. As soon as she raised her pink shield, she suddenly discovered that these anti-aircraft shells generated extremely high temperatures. Alicia was so frightened that she quickly flew away, not daring to withstand the attack.
