Inside the cockpit:
"Woohoo! Boss! That move you just pulled off was amazing! It really relieved a lot of pressure!"
"Alright."
William, who had recovered, heard Myron's shout over the comms and couldn't help but instruct, "Myron, focus on the battle."
"Yes, Boss!"
William then ignored Myron and focused on piloting his suit through the breach, entering the Reaper mothership before its shields could recover.
Through the screen, he and Serena saw the vast interior of the mothership.
It glowed with emerald green light, possessing its own ecosystem, with various transport ships flying high above.
At the same time, there were several breaches caused by electromagnetic cannons, with low-intensity explosions occurring sporadically.
Looking at their deck through the God-body's vision, they could see a large number of Reapers in milky-yellow bio-armor, urgently repairing the destroyed sections.
Suddenly, dozens of enemy aircraft appeared not far in front of the God-body, firing dozens of green beams.
However, William easily dodged this dense attack.
He increased the power of his back thrusters, rapidly closing the distance between himself and the enemy aircraft, and swung the giant ship-slaying blade with both hands.
The nearly two-hundred-meter-long beam blade sliced through them ruthlessly, regardless of whether their fighters had energy shields.
Boom—!
It instantly 'cleared the screen'.
Afterward, William continued to pilot the God-body deeper into the Reaper mothership and asked Serena, "How's it going?"
Serena's body emitted a faint blue light, and she said with a frown, "Boss, it's still going to take some time."
"Okay."
At this moment, the left screen again alerted William to the approach of a significant number of enemy aircraft.
Seeing this,
William used neuro-sensing to recall the floating cannons trailing the God-body for recharging, then disassembled the giant ship-slaying blade, storing one hilt on the right side of his back.
He picked up the short-barreled Gauss cannon again, preparing to face the enemy with a sword in one hand and a 'gun' in the other.

...
At the same time,
Outside the Reaper mothership, the Umbrella fleet and the disc-shaped destroyers continued to exchange fire.
Furthermore, Umbrella, which had an advantage in performance and firepower, gradually began to struggle due to the sheer number of the enemy.
The battle between carrier-based aircraft and enemy fighters also entered a stalemate, with the number of losses already reaching multiple figures and slowly increasing.
Fortunately, Umbrella had the support of fourteen God-bodies, which allowed them to stabilize the situation despite being outnumbered by dozens of times.
Among them, the most outstanding performers were undoubtedly the Spartans' Blue Team and Red Team.
Carl and Jerome, equipped with electromagnetic acceleration sniper cannons, began to coordinate with each other, assisting the fleet in striking the 'flying saucers'.
Meanwhile, Myron and Alice, two Spartans, used rotating Gauss cannons to create an absolute barrage against enemy fighters and 'flying saucers', even creating temporary absolute vacuum zones.
As for Douglas, who was not the Red Team leader, his suit was also equipped with six floating cannons, coordinating with John's floating cannons for fire support and coverage.
Even if the Reapers had a complete numerical advantage, Umbrella could still achieve victory, but it would be a Pyrrhic one.
.
Observing closely in the battle zone where both sides' fighters were engaged, one could see an F-X or Viking fighter often needing to contend with ten to a dozen enemy aircraft.
Following this, the pilots would use their absolute performance advantage to create distance, rapidly ascending or descending to evade friendly fire support.
These F-X and Vikings were decoys, used to lure the less maneuverable enemy aircraft.
But once entangled by dozens, or even a hundred enemy aircraft, the fate of the decoy aircraft was self-evident.
Suddenly...
One F-X acting as a decoy encountered the aforementioned situation, its tail being bitten by a large number of enemy aircraft.
Even with rapid barrel rolls or spins, it couldn't shake off those 'flies', as there were simply too many of them.
Moreover, the squadron responsible for supporting this F-X seemed to have encountered some situation and couldn't provide timely fire support.
If effective support wasn't received within a few seconds, then the fate of this F-X and its pilot...
would be destruction and death.
Whoosh—! Whoosh—!
Dozens of green beams formed a massive barrage net, 'pouncing' towards that F-X.
But the pilot still didn't want to give up, performing emergency evasive maneuvers, attempting to dodge the attack.
Buzz—! Buzz—!
However, the expected scene of being hit and exploding didn't occur; instead, a massive God-body blocked the barrage.
The green beams falling on the energy shield only caused harmless attacks to the God-body.
But those 'flies' that were chasing the F-X, extremely arrogant, met a rather tragic end...
Boom—! Boom—!
Unable to control their speed, they, like the green beams, crashed directly into the God-body's energy shield.
The F-X that had been pursued circled around and flew in front of the God-body, and the pilot in the cockpit even gave a thumbs-up, expressing gratitude for the life-saving act.
The God-body merely nodded to the F-X, then gripped its Gauss rifle again and launched an attack on the countless 'flies'.
This scene was constantly replaying, and not all pilots were lucky enough to be saved by a Spartan controlling a God-body.
If this continued...
The death toll would break Umbrella's record.
.
"Ahhh! You damn flies! Die!!!"
After witnessing an F-X explode in flames, Myron immediately aimed the muzzle of his rotating Gauss cannon at the group of enemy aircraft and couldn't help but roar.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
Dense spike rounds shot out of the gun.
Boom boom boom—!
But the expected emerald green energy shields didn't generate; instead, they were directly destroyed by Myron's sweep.
Not only that.
Those 'flies' entangled in combat with the F-X and Viking fighters instantly froze, floating motionless in space, and even the twenty-five-kilometer-long flying saucers did the same.
"Huh?"
Seeing the situation before him, Myron, sitting in the cockpit, was stunned, seemingly not having reacted yet.
"Everyone!" William's voice came over the comms, loudly commanding:
"The Reaper mothership's system has been completely taken over by Serena! Now, destroy all those annoying 'flies' and 'flying saucers'!"
"And! I don't need prisoners in this battle! Annihilate all those cosmic hooligans!"
As everyone carefully listened to the command, a sudden brilliant light filled this dark sea.
And the center of this radiance was precisely the nearly six-hundred-kilometer giant mothership.
Accompanied by the light and a visible shockwave, a purple-painted God-body flew towards the Umbrella fleet.
Seeing all this, the collective combat personnel's shouts came over the comms: "Yes, Boss!"
