A mech flew out from one of the warships and grabbed the lifeless Thorn floating in space. With a beautiful turn, the mech carried Thorn back to the warship like a bird returning to its nest.
"Sir, I'm back." A gentle voice rang in everyone's ears in the captain's room.
"Hmm, did you find anything?" An emotionless voice asked.
"Thorn is dead. His heart was pierced by a recursion ray. He died on the spot. Other than the two finger-sized holes on his mech, the spikes on his body had many slash marks. He must have gone through a fierce battle, and the opponent was probably a close combat fighter. I can guess that one of the close combat fighters fought with Thorn, while the other sniper ambushed him, killing him instantly. " The gentle voice spoke slowly, but there was a slight change in his emotions when he mentioned the recursion ray.
"Recursion? Are you sure it was recursion? "Even the fleet commander's usually emotionless voice was slightly moved.
"Yes, sir." The gentle voice was still gentle.
"Looks like our opponents can't hold back either. But since when did the MPA have a close combat fighter? And that warship is obviously not the MPA's warship. How strange. "He seemed to be deep in thought.
"Sir, I request for a pursuit." His gentle voice still sounded calm, but the fleet commander could see the surging fighting spirit in his eyes.
"Hmm, very well. It's been 50 years since the last encounter between the Darklight mech pilots and the White Hunter. I'm looking forward to this fight. Hmm, bring Little Rock with you. I'll give you a powerboat. Go ahead. By the way, keep an eye on their intentions. "The fleet commander's emotionless voice showed a hint of concern.
"Thank you, sir." His voice was filled with gratitude.
The powerboat was shuttle-shaped, small, and could only fit two people. If a battleship was a big fish, then the powerboat could only be regarded as a fishbone of this fish. Despite its small size, the powerboat's performance was excellent. The main purpose of the powerboat was to sneak in and pursue. It was extremely fast, and could maneuver in various directions. To increase its endurance, it was also equipped with many energy cells. Although Black Cove's technology was far behind the MPA in the field of energy weapons, it was not far behind the MPA in other fields. This powership was also capable of warping. Many people from Black Cove believed that this was probably the smallest spaceship capable of warping in the world.
A powerboat flew out from the hatch of a battleship, heading towards the Coxcomb at breakneck speed.
"Return to the original plan," the fleet commander suddenly said.
"What about these civilian boats?" His subordinate looked at him hesitantly.
"Ignore them. We've already wasted too much time on this. What we need to do now is to speed up." The fleet commander got up, glanced at the speedboat on the holographic screen, and left the captain's room.
"Little Rock, I'll have to trouble you this time." Luo Wei smiled. Luo Wei looked to be in his late twenties. The reserved smile on his face made it easy for people to have a good impression of him. Coupled with his sunny and handsome appearance, he was undoubtedly quite approachable. Moreover, no matter what the situation was, Luo Wei would always speak in a calm and unhurried manner, which gave people a strong sense of security.
"What are you saying, Lord Lowe? Hehe … "Little Rock's face blushed. Compared to Luo Wei, Little Rock was much more ordinary. There was nothing special about his appearance. He was short, and his shriveled appearance made people wonder if he was suffering from severe malnutrition. However, the people from Black Cove would not look down on this little guy who had no combat ability whatsoever. Because he was a genius, an out-and-out genius.
Little Rock hesitated, and asked, "Lord Luo Wei, is the White Hunter very powerful?"
Luo Wei mused, "It's my first time seeing the White Hunter as well. Their specialty is their use of recursion. Hmm, it's a type of energy gun that can fire recursion rays. They specialize in long-range and ultra-long-range sniping. They're very scary. According to the information given to us, the MPA is the same as Black Cove. They also have a very strict hierarchy, and Darklight mech pilots and White Hunters happen to be on the same level. However, white-clothed hunters were rare in the MPA. Most of them are White Hunters at their level. I didn't expect to see a White Hunter here. That's strange. "
Little Rock was skeptical. "Hmph, that White Hunter or whatever it is must be weak against Lord Luo Wei. Darklight mech pilots are strong, they're nothing compared to that White Hunter. "
Luo Wei was still smiling, but said nothing. However, he was a little lost in thought. How could these people understand the depth of Black Cove? Even he himself only knew the tip of the iceberg.
"The warships are retreating?" Shang exclaimed in surprise.
"They're retreating?" Ye Chong was also surprised by the result. It was not Black Cove's style to let the matter go so easily.
"No!" Shang screamed, "There's another powership! I was almost tricked. Hehe, luckily I'm smart, tsk tsk … "Shang was once again immersed in his own narcissism.
Ye Chong looked at Shang speechlessly. He was speechless.
On the holographic screen, a miniature starship was flying towards them. It was so fast that Ye Chong jumped.
"So fast? It's almost as fast as a mech. "Ye Chong was a little surprised.
"Ye, it's called a powership, of course it's fast. Motherf * cker, Ye, we've gone too far this time …" Shang felt like his tail was stepped on.
"What's wrong, Shang?" Ye Chong asked, puzzled.
"Ye, there's definitely a master in this powership. It's used for stealth and pursuit. They'll rely on their individual mechs to wear down the enemy. Those who carry out this mission are the best of the best. They're definitely not at Thorn's level. Ye, we've gone too far this time. There must be a big guy in there. "
"A master stronger than Thorn?" Ye Chong's expression changed. Thorn was already making it hard for him to fight. If he was alone, he would not be able to kill Thorn no matter what. Defeating and killing were two completely different concepts. Anyone with combat experience would understand the difference between the two.
Now, someone even more powerful than Thorns had appeared.
Just when Ye Chong was having a headache, Shang suddenly laughed, "Haha, Ye, scared? Haha, Ye, you're such a coward. Haha, I'm just trying to scare you. Tsk tsk, Ye, I didn't expect you to be such a coward despite your usual calm demeanor. You really can't judge a book by its cover … "Shang dragged the last sentence with an indescribable weirdness.
Ye Chong was speechless. Veins popped out on his forehead. He looked around but could not find anything to throw at, so he gave up.
Ye Chong probably felt a little creeped out by Ye Chong's stare. "Hehe, Ye, don't worry, don't worry. I've calculated our warp jump point. Hehe, they'll never catch up to us."
Almost right after Shang finished, Ye Chong felt Coxcomb accelerating. They no longer had the energy to pay attention to those civilian ships. Where were Grandpa Qian and the rest? Ye Chong rationally gave up the thought of looking for them in such a chaotic situation.
Hopefully they'll be lucky.
Little Rock's expression was solemn. He stared at the holographic screen of the photon processor without blinking. The data on the holographic screen was constantly changing.
"Sir Luo Wei, I've calculated their warp jump point. I've input the coordinates into the photon processor." Little Rock sounded tired. If Shang knew that the coordinates of his warp jump point could be calculated by someone else, he would definitely be shocked. There was no shortage of geniuses in this world, and there was no such thing as the best in any field. Little Rock's superhuman calculation ability was also the reason why the fleet commander sent him to assist Luo Wei.
Coxcomb did not notice it at all. No one would believe that there was someone in this world who could calculate the warp jump point of the opponent in the short moment before the warp jump. Even Shang couldn't calculate it, so it was still unknown whether Mu could do it.
Coxcomb was in ruins. Fortunately, the main structure was not damaged, so the warp jump was not a problem.
Coxcomb picked up speed and flew out of the warp jump point in the blink of an eye. Both Ye Chong and Shang heaved a sigh of relief. No matter who it was, fighting against two warships was not a small burden. Besides, Ye Chong had fought against an expert who was as strong as him for such a long time. It would be a lie to say he was not tired.
Between life and death, humans were like a taut string, but once they were out of danger, the string would suddenly loosen, and the fatigue would come like a tidal wave.
"Heavens, this powership flew out of our warp jump point just now. How did they know our warp jump point?" Shang could not help but exclaim in shock.
Ye Chong was also surprised, but he was not too familiar with the laws of space, so he did not feel much.
The opponent accelerated further, but maintained a distance beyond the range of Coxcomb's laser cannons. Shang looked at the guy who was like a sticky candy, a headache. Using electromagnetic cannons, the opponent was so small, and with the superb flying skills they had shown, the possibility of hitting the opponent was next to nothing. Besides, the opponent had been staying out of the range of the laser cannons. Shang could only use Recursion, but no matter how strong Recursion was, it would not be able to penetrate the opponent's powership. Recursion cannon. Considering the distance and accuracy, Shang gave up the idea which he thought would never work.
The powership was not in a hurry, it just followed Coxcomb slowly. At such a close distance, Coxcomb did not even dare to perform a warp jump. Otherwise, the opponent would attack while Coxcomb was warping, and the two of them would be dead.
Ye Chong and Shang could not do anything about it. The man and the mech looked at each other helplessly.
Ye Chong frowned and said, "Shang, should I lure him out? And then you can ambush him with Recursion? "
"Hold on, let's try with Beauty's Crescent," Shang said sinisterly.
10 Beauty's Crescent flew out of the launch tube silently, heading towards the opponent's powership.
Ye Chong and Shang stared at the holographic screen, afraid of missing a single detail. The 10 Beauty's Crescent flew across the void silently. Just when they were about to hit the powership, a laser cannons popped out from the front of the powership, and the 10 Beauty's Crescent were hit by 10 laser beams. The 10 Beauty's Crescent exploded into a purple rain, scattering in all directions of the universe.
Shang regained his calmness, "Ye, don't rush out. Rest first. You've been fighting for so long today, you've exhausted a lot of your stamina. Wait until you're fully recovered. Hmph, although I'm not in my best form now, I'm not someone any small fry can act arrogantly in front of. " Ye Chong was lost in his thoughts as he thought to himself, "What was Shang like in the past? Is this it? "
"Hehe, he wouldn't dare to come near anyway. Hehe … "Shang's expression and tone were indescribably wretched. Ye Chong's thought was shattered in an instant. It seemed like it was just an illusion. Yes, it was an illusion. Ye Chong did not know whether to laugh or cry. He found a place to rest and quickly fell asleep.
No matter who it was, he would never believe that the person could sneak into Coxcomb without being discovered by Mu or Shang. Ye Chong might not dare to say that Mu or Shang's holographic scanning system was the most advanced in the world, but it was definitely one of the most advanced.
Ye Chong slept comfortably. When he woke up, he felt his stamina was almost recovered. He ate something and drank some water. "How's the situation?" Ye Chong asked.
Shang said indifferently, "It's still the same. That guy just followed us closely and didn't do anything else."
"Where are we now?" Ye Chong asked.
"Cerulean Galaxy," Shang answered lazily.
"Cerulean Galaxy? Isn't that the Sanctuary's territory? "Ye Chong asked.
"If it's like what the news said, then it is."
Ye Chong stretched and moved his limbs. He even practiced a set of Lan family's martial arts. He felt his body was fully stretched, and he was in good shape.
Ye Chong summoned Han Jia and recharged its energy cells.
"Shang, I'll go take a look. Are you coming?" Ye Chong asked.
"I'm not going. I'm only responsible for ambushing. Too bad you didn't have enough materials, so you could only make one Recursion. If only I had one … Hmph … Recursion is trash. It's good against mechs, but it's useless against other things. Too bad, the Recursion cannon is good, but the accuracy is too low. "Shang's words were full of disdain towards Recursion.
"Aren't mechs used to fight against mechs? Do you want to use mechs to fight against warships? "Ye Chong thought it was ridiculous.
"Who said mechs can't fight against warships? Hehe, you'll know soon enough. Between mechs and warships, there's a restriction and a counter. Ye, be careful. The one in the powership is usually not your average fighter. Retreat immediately if something goes wrong. I'll snipe him for you, "Shang said with concern.
"Got it." Ye Chong took a deep breath and climbed into Han Jia's cockpit.
When Ye Chong flew out of Coxcomb, Luo Wei was surprised. "Full-skeleton mech! So it's a full-skeleton mech, no wonder Thorn was trapped. "
Little Rock pointed doubtfully at Han Jia on the optical projection, "Sir Luo Wei, is this the legendary full-skeleton mech?"
"Yes, it should be. Little Rock, you pilot the powership. I'll go meet him. "Luo Wei's gentle eyes flashed.
"Oh, okay." Little Rock nodded. These simple maneuvers were not difficult for the young genius.
The powership on the other side finally had its first change in two days. A mech flew out from one of its hatches.
It was another mech from Black Cove that Ye Chong had never seen before. The mech was about 10 meters tall, with a well-proportioned body. It had a shiny black metallic luster. The slender main body reminded Ye Chong of the elegance of the MPA's mechs, except that the MPA's was white while this one was black. The mech did not have the usual barbs of Black Cove's mechs, so it looked clean. The seemingly slender legs had a smooth and perfect curve, while the knees were embedded with shiny hemispherical metal armor. It did not look weak despite its slender body.
Its weapons were two crescent-shaped blades, long and narrow, with a threatening curve. The hands were positioned at the center of the blades. The dark blade did not have any luster, but there was a dazzling light at the edge of the blade. In the darkness of space, it looked like the hands of a gentleman in black hanging down, with two thin silver moons hanging in the air.
Ye Chong was well-versed in mechs, and could not help but admire the mech. His eyes did not fall on the opponent's most dazzling weapon, but on every joint and every curve of the mech. These inconspicuous parts were the best proof of the creator's skill, and the mech before him was impeccable in every aspect. The Black Cove was indeed full of hidden talents. Behind these strong mech pilots, there were many skilled experts in various fields.
Ye Chong's cold eyes fell on the strange pair of blades, and his heart skipped a beat. He was not completely clueless about Black Cove. He understood that in Black Cove, there must be a corresponding unique technique to use a unique weapon.
He could clearly hear Shang's exclamation, "Darklight mech pilot!"
