It was a mess. Everyone on the starship stared at the holographic screen, their eyes filled with fear. Strangely enough, the Coxcomb had been flying right next to the starship since the beginning, as if he was escorting the starship. It was the envy of many starship captains. Every crew member on this starship felt extremely honored. Perhaps everyone on the starship was grateful to the Coxcomb. Therefore, when the Coxcomb was flying right next to the starship, everyone on the starship rushed to the holographic window to have a look. To them, the Coxcomb was their hero.
Just when everyone thought they were about to reach Csebesini Galaxy safely, the Coxcomb suddenly left the starship's flank. Then, the captain received Commander Fid's order for all starships to enter the warp jump point as soon as possible. This time, everyone understood that there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that another pirate had appeared. The captain of the starship was experienced. After receiving Fid's order, he gave a series of orders that seemed to be correct. And it was these orders that put the starship in a good position.
The holographic screen still showed only the Coxcomb. No pirates were seen. Suddenly, the Coxcomb fired a few dozen thick blue beams into space. Following that, the empty space suddenly exploded. Everyone was shocked. Could it be that the pirates' starships had the ability to cloak as well? What was that thick blue beam?
Fortunately, Wei Yuan reacted quickly and shouted, "Switch to optical mode!"
It could evade the advanced holographic scanning, but it was useless against the most primitive optical mode.
After switching to optical mode, everyone was shocked to find that the originally docile Playboy was actually a battleship. The eerie black cannon barrels looked incomparably ferocious. Facing it was a dense swarm of mechs, and a warship. It was a terrifying sight to behold. The other battleship's miserable state was unbearable to look at.
The warship, a weapon that could evoke the fear of war, was right in front of everyone's eyes. Compared to a warship, pirates were just amateurs.
The captain quickly increased his speed. The starship was defenseless against the warship. The only way to save everyone on the starship was to enter the warp jump point as soon as possible. Almost every captain had the same idea as him, and the situation became chaotic. However, the two mech squads quickly sent out their mechs to maintain order, and the situation was finally more orderly. Fortunately, the starship was in a good position. It would be their turn in a minute or two.
All the passengers were gathered in front of the optical projection. When the Coxcomb killed the other battleship, everyone cheered. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They believed that the Coxcomb would win in the end. The mechs were numerous, but the Coxcomb had a sniper mech pilot who could single-handedly destroy 300 advanced mechs.
Just then, the captain's stern voice rang from within the starship. "Elderly and women, please enter the safe room immediately. The rest of you, take care of yourselves. We're about to jump through space. Please get ready. " The elderly man and woman were immediately sent to the safety room, while the others continued to stare at the optical projection without blinking.
Everyone could feel the starship accelerating. This was the prelude to a warp jump. A warp jump was a piece of cake for a starship. However, if there were any disturbances during the jump, the consequences would be dire. With the advancement of science in the past two years, the load on the passengers during a warp jump was almost negligible compared to the past. Most adults would not feel any discomfort at all.
As the starship sped up, the optical projection began to shake. As the starship sped up, the projection began to shake more and more violently, until it was hard to distinguish the image on it. They could only vaguely see something flying out of the Coxcomb. It looked like a mech.
Suddenly, a brief clear image appeared on the optical projection. However, in the blink of an eye, the image was gone.
"Ah!" Two people screamed in unison!
"Initiating warp jump." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they made it through the warp jump, they would be safe. Before a warp jump, careful calculations had to be made, or they would not be able to reach their desired destination. If the coordinates were not set in advance, no one would dare to make a space jump. Even if it was a warship, it was still defenseless against the laws of space.
Everyone felt like they had entered a dream. It was surreal and unreal. It felt like a long moment. This was the feeling of a warp jump. Many people were addicted to the feeling.
Everyone felt their bodies lighten, and the scene before them became clear again. It was as if they had just returned from a dream to reality.
Rui's cold face was completely blank, and Wei Yuan's face was also filled with disbelief. They were the ones who screamed.
"Yuan, what happened?" Rui Su asked Wei Yuan curiously. She clearly heard her sister's scream. She was curious as to what could make her usually reserved sister scream like that. However, she wouldn't ask her sister. It wasn't easy to get anything out of her sister's mouth. However, she also heard Wei Yuan's scream. Little Wei must know something.
Wei Yuan looked at Rui Bing, who was deep in thought. He whispered to Rui Su, "That mech just now seems to be brother-in-law Bing's. I've seen it before. " Everyone in the Rui family knew about Ye Chong and Rui Bing. When they talked about Ye Chong, Wei Yuan liked to call him brother-in-law, while Rui Su liked to call him her future brother-in-law. Madam Rui could not do anything about her daughter. She knew that once Rui Bing decided, she would do it.
"Ah!" Rui Su couldn't help but cry out involuntarily. When she regained her senses, she hurriedly covered her cherry lips with her hand, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief. Seeing that her sister was still silent for a long time, she couldn't help but whisper to Wei Yuan suspiciously, "Yuan, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"Hmph, I'm sure. Brother-In-Law Bing saved me in this mech last time. How could I be wrong?" Wei Yuan was furious at Rui Su's suspicion.
Rui Bing lowered her head and stared at the floor. For some reason, she felt a sense of sadness. Was this what it meant to be so close? She was a little stunned.
"Heh, this future brother-in-law is not bad. He came to protect us!" Rui Su's voice came.
Wei Yuan could not believe it. "How could it be? How did brother-in-law Bing know we're here? It's very likely that Brother-in-law Bing happened to pass by and decided to lend a hand … "
Wei Yuan's voice was interrupted by Rui Su. Rui Su said disdainfully, "Come on, coming to our aid? That brother-in-law Bing of yours is not that kind of person. That guy is born cold. Hmph, if there's nothing here that he thinks is worth protecting, why would he help? Tsk, what a joke! "Ye Chong's coldness was still fresh in Rui Su's memory.
Wei Yuan was furious. "Don't you dare slander brother-in-law Bing!" The two started arguing.
Rui Bing's eyes brightened. Could he be here to protect me? Coxcomb had been flying at the side of the starship, as if it was escorting the starship. This seemed to confirm Rui Bing's thoughts.
Rui Bing, who had no experience in this field, could not escape from her childish attitude.
However, her attention was quickly focused on Ye Chong's safety.
But what could she do? Rui Bing was speechless. Now that they had brushed past each other, when would be the next time they met?
"But …" She did not say the last words in her mind. However, the hesitation and confusion in Rui Bing's eyes were replaced by determination.
Rui Bing quickly returned to her usual coldness. Seeing that Rui Su and Wei Yuan were still quarreling, Rui Bing took a step forward and walked between them. She picked them up with each hand and calmly walked towards Madam Rui and Grandpa Qian's resting place.
"Sister Bing, it's all Sister Su's fault …" Wei Yuan's face was red.
"Bing Bing, don't listen to Yuan. I'm such a good girl … Hey, Bing Bing … Can you let go of me first …" Rui Su couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed when she saw the weird looks from the people around her.
Ye Chong had no time to care about what happened in the fleet. He only had eyes for the mechs in front of him.
There were only about 20 black mechs left, and some of them were missing arms and legs. These missing mechs were all soaked in the water, but they reacted fast enough to cut off the parts of their mechs that were soaked in the water before the water spread.
Beauty's Secretion's ambush was a success.
Thorn Thorn was extremely furious. This was the first time in history that his team had suffered such heavy casualties. He did not expect the enemy to have such an insidious weapon, and to be able to evade his holographic scanning.
Ye Chong's attention was also on the mech. Among all the standard mechs, a mech that stood out from the rest would naturally attract attention. And it was also this mech that broke Beauty's Secretion with a short alloy spike. Judging from the mech's performance, it was no doubt a very skilled mech.
What made Ye Chong wary was that this was the first time he saw a Black Cove mech of this type.
