The player is playing like a god, but their cheat code is Aatrox.

The next second, a flash of light appeared.

The nearby frigate was hit, a huge explosion rang out, flames lit up the sky, and the frigate turned into countless pieces of wreckage that fell to the ground.

The Japanese people who were fleeing in panic couldn't help but stop and look at what was happening.

"Quick, look! It looks like...it looks like a spaceship has been shot down!"

"It's true! It's really true! It must be His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Baka yarou! Our country is truly the most powerful nation!"

"You idiot invaders! Go back to your homeland!"

The people below, bathed in neon lights, couldn't help but cheer.

But was it really done by the Japanese military?

Not long after Yueji pressed the button atop the tower, Cangyu appeared beside her.

"It's started?"

Rose nodded: "Mmm!"

Cang Yu looked at the energy barriers that were beginning to appear around Neon Island, and without hesitation, he took out his latest research and development...

Railgun.

It was a silver-gray cannon, almost as tall as him, with its barrel constructed of dense nano-metal and its surface adorned with flowing, dark blue energy patterns.

It has no trigger, nor a scope in the traditional sense.

As Cang Yu hoisted it onto his shoulder, the entire cannon began automatically calculating battlefield data.

The holographic panel unfolds on one side of the gun barrel, incorporating atmospheric refractive index, target trajectory parameters, energy shield frequency, and lock-on offset into real-time calibration.

Rose stood beside him, her icy blue eyes reflecting the cold light emanating from the cannon.

"Let's try one shot and see the effect."

As Cang Yu finished speaking, a huge beam of light suddenly shot out from the railgun and hit the escort ship in the sky.

The warship didn't even have time to deploy its shields before it was blasted into countless pieces of debris.

Seeing the frigate suddenly shot down by an unknown attack, Shi Xiong was stunned for two seconds before he reacted.

"Quick! Activate the energy shield! Open the hatches and unleash all the Taotie soldiers! Find that sneak attacker!"

The monstrous beast's eyes were filled with rage.

"Yes, I will! I'll do it right away!"

An Yi was stunned and speechless by the sudden turn of events and the king's fury.

The hatches of the Taotie flagship and its escort ships opened simultaneously.

In an instant, countless Taotie soldiers surged out, their mechanical wings spreading out and obscuring the neon sky.

Without the slightest hesitation, they immediately picked up their laser guns and began firing wildly at the ground.

Those Japanese who were still shouting "Long live His Majesty the Emperor" instantly realized something was wrong.

"Th-what is that?"

"Run! Run! It's an alien—!"

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Behind the two warships, several more warships appeared out of nowhere.

They were the follow-up troops of Taotie.

It is worth mentioning that while this barrier prevented the Taotie from escaping, it also cut off their communication.

In other words, even if Shizhu realizes something is wrong and tries to stop the follow-up troops, it will be too late.

He had no way of getting the message out; the follow-up troops would simply continue advancing according to his previous orders.

They were then directly teleported over by the device deployed by Hashihiko and the others from Pluto's giant insect, Hashihiko.

"Wow, there are so many of them, like flies..."

Looking at the Taotie soldiers flying all over the sky, Cang Yu was not in a hurry at all, and even had the leisure to put his hand on a telescope and sigh a few words.

Anyway, this is neon.

Although the Japanese were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the Taotie, they quickly organized a counterattack.

Countless fighter jets flew in from afar.

The Japanese Self-Defense Forces reacted faster than Aoba had anticipated.

However, it's a pity.

Earth is merely a pre-nuclear civilization, while the Taotie are a space-age civilization, a whole level higher than Earth.

The technological superiority is no joke, especially since Japan isn't even considered top-tier on Earth.

Even with all their fighter jets deployed, they were still no match for the Taotie, and the battlefield remained one-sided and overwhelming.

Cang Yu showed no intention of making a move, and simply watched quietly.

The rose didn't say anything either, it just stood quietly to the side.

Before long, more and more Taotie warships appeared in the sky.

The entire island of Neon is ablaze with the flames of war, ruins, and collapsed buildings, resembling a scene of hell on earth.

Flames erupted from the top floor of a department store in Ginza, and thick smoke billowed into the air, turning the midday sun a dark red.

The streets were littered with abandoned vehicles, some still burning, others trampled beyond recognition.

Meanwhile, the number of Taotie warships in the sky continued to increase.

One after another, the reinforcements continued until nearly twenty Taotie warships had densely gathered in the air, at which point the continuous stream of reinforcements finally stopped.

After a brief moment of surprise, the newly appeared warship also quickly opened its hatch.

The sky was teeming with Taotie soldiers, a dark mass that even dimmed the sunlight.

"This is even more shocking than watching a drama." Even Cang Yu couldn't help but exclaim.

The Battle of Tianhe in the original storyline didn't have nearly as many Taotie warships.

After all, the Shizhu did not commit all its forces at the time; it left some to observe in space.

Now, thanks to Cang Yu's device, these warships were teleported directly over as soon as they left the Great Insect Bridge, leaving no opportunity for anyone to stay and observe.

At that moment, a spatial ripple spread out beside the two of them. The next second, Rose and Qi Lin emerged from it.

"You're here?" Cang Yu's lips curled up slightly. The two nodded.

"Good, we've almost gathered them all, saving us an extra trip. Let's fight, even if we sink this island, it doesn't matter."

That's what they say, but although Qi Lin and Qiang Wei have leveled up, their strength is still not at that level.

They have the capability to destroy an island nation, but sinking an entire island into the sea is still a stretch.

Cang Yu could have easily cleared out all the Taotie quickly, but there was no need.

This is a good opportunity for Rose and Qilin to practice their skills.

"I'll upgrade you after this battle," Cang Yu said to Yue Ji beside him after thinking for a moment.

Rose paused for a moment, seemingly not expecting to be included.

She wasn't good at expressing her emotions, so she could only offer a faint smile and say, "Thank you."

Cang Yu waved his hand dismissively.

On the other side of the battlefield, Qilin and Qiangwei naturally possessed the ability to fly.

Wings spread behind the two

Rose's is red, while Qilin's is purple.

Unlike the wings of angels or demons, their wings were quite beautiful.

Rose was the first to charge into the Taotie's formation.

A wave of scorching heat rose as her red wings unfurled behind her.

She didn't take any guns; she simply raised her hand and made a grasping motion, and the power of spacetime condensed in her palm into a semi-transparent, light blue short blade.

As the blade traced its path, the space itself distorted slightly, as if a transparent scar had been burned by the scorching air.

Cang Yu, watching this scene from afar, twitched the corner of his mouth.

No... I've upgraded everything for you...

Your spatial abilities are used for things like spatial tearing, spatial shock, spacetime distortion, spatial displacement...

So many amazing abilities, why not use them, why not develop them?

Cang Yu truly had no idea how much Rose really liked her dagger...

It's all Dio's fault!
