Five hours later, the ship took off. Ye Chong and the rest boarded Darvill, Ye Pang's ship. Darvill was loaded with large amounts of energy cells and other war resources.
Ye Pang invited everyone to the control room. Since it was a transport ship, the control room was rather spacious. The ship was now in stable flight mode. Most of the crew could rest now, and only a few were left on duty. However, no one could sleep now. This was the first time since the Gateway was opened that they received an SOS. Everyone was anxious, so there were a few people gathered everywhere on the spaceship, discussing the matter with worried expressions.
Ye Pang was completely different from before. He was dressed in a neat black uniform, with a leaf embroidered on his collar and sleeves. The uniform cap on his head made him look more like a soldier.
"Why are you wearing this?" Ye Luo could not help but ask when he saw Ye Pang. He then commented, "Ugly!"
Ye Pang took off his uniform cap and threw it on the table. He gave Ye Luo a sidelong glance. "You're still as ignorant as before. According to the rules of the Tribe, any unit that receives an SOS must immediately enter combat mode. This is combat mode! Do you understand? Well, it's no use telling you. You probably don't even remember the rules. "
Ye Luo was speechless, embarrassed.
"What would you like to have?" Ye Pang smiled at everyone. "Don't stand on ceremony. I'm from the logistics department, after all. I have some good stuff."
Ye Luo grinned at Ye Chong. "This guy is rich. What would you like to eat or drink? Just say the word."
However, no one was in the mood to discuss food or drink. They all said whatever they wanted.
Ye Pang saw this and called for his men, whispering a few orders. The men quickly left, and soon returned with a few snow-white cups. The golden liquid in the cups gave off a rich aroma. Everyone perked up.
"Golden Raven Soup! You sure know how to enjoy yourself! "Ye Luo took a cup and drained it without hesitation.
Ye Pang could not help but feel sorry for Ye Luo. "Drink slowly, this isn't boiling water! It's a waste for you to drink this! "
Ye Chong picked up a cup and took a sip. The rich aroma filled his mouth immediately. The slightly spicy taste made him feel refreshed, and a warm feeling rose in his stomach. He felt like all the pores on his body were expanding, and it was so comfortable that he wanted to moan.
Golden Cloud Soup was a specialty of Risserd, but it was produced in very small quantities. Only large families like the Yan and Huang families could have a little of it every year. No one knew where Ye Pang had gotten it from.
For a moment, everyone was carefully tasting the Golden Crow Cloud Soup. No one spoke. The main control room was silent.
Ye Pang crossed his arms and rested his chin on his hands. His head was lowered, deep in thought.
"Our journey will take about six days. However, I believe that the combat troops in front of us will arrive at the entrance of the tunnel three days before us. In other words, we should be able to receive intelligence from the frontlines in about three days. I believe that by then, we will have a clearer understanding of the situation ahead, "Ye Pang said slowly.
As it turned out, Ye Pang's guess was extremely accurate.
On the third day, they received news from the frontlines.
But everyone's face was as gloomy as the winter fog. To be more precise, it was an order for all transport ships to gather at a designated location. However, it still briefed them on the battle situation of the past few days. This was the main reason for everyone's worry.
Ye Yin and the rest had been defeated in the first wave of attack! This result shocked everyone. Ye Yin was a god of war in the eyes of most of the Ye Family members. No one had ever thought that he would lose!
The attackers of the tunnel were also unveiled.
They were an unknown lifeform. They were numerous, and their attacks were ferocious. They were highly aggressive. It was difficult to know the specifics of these lifeforms from the intelligence reports.
In the first wave of contact, the attacks of these unknown creatures shocked everyone. If Ye Yin had not reacted quickly and retreated, the casualties would have been much higher. Even so, the Ye Family had lost a total of 300 mechs and 300 mech pilots in the first wave of attack.
Every Ye Family member on the transport ship was alarmed and worried. When had the Ye Clan ever been so powerless to fight back? How many years had it been since the Ye Family suffered such casualties? Three hundred regular mech pilots were a formidable force no matter where they were.
Ye Yin decided to retreat temporarily and gather all his forces before launching a second wave of attack. Hence, he requested for all combatants and transport ships to gather at a designated location.
"Ye Yin, you useless fool!" Ye Luo cursed angrily. 300 Ye Family members had died just like that. As a member of the Ye Family, how could he not be heartbroken?
Ye Pang heaved a long sigh and opened his eyes. He shook his head, disagreeing with Ye Luo. "Ye Yin made the right choice. These unknown lifeforms must be very powerful to have forced Ye Yin into such a passive state. "
Just then, a shrill alarm rang out on the ship!
"All personnel, please get into position immediately. All personnel, please get into position immediately! Unknown lifeforms detected approaching the ship at high speed! Unknown lifeforms detected approaching the ship at high speed! "The observer's voice was filled with panic.
Everyone was stunned, and soon after, it was as if the entire spaceship had exploded.
Ye Pang stood up abruptly and ran towards the control room. Ye Chong and the rest quickly followed behind him.
Entering the control room, Ye Pang's expression was calm. There was no sign of panic on his face. This eased the tension in the control room.
"What's going on?" Ye Pang asked in a low voice.
"Captain, look … look!" The observer connected the image to the largest holographic screen in the control room.
On the holographic screen, there was a small group of unknown lifeforms flying towards the ship in the darkness of outer space.
Ye Chong had never seen these lifeforms before. They were shaped like spheres, covered in dark purple carapaces. Each carapace had an eye on it, and they looked very strange. Eight dark purple spheres formed a straight line as they flew through space at high speed.
Just then, the unknown lifeforms seemed to have noticed the starship. On the holographic screen, the spheres curled up into a ball and stretched out their bodies. The two ends of their flat bodies had two rows of terrifying looking blades. On top of their heads were two large antennae.
These lifeforms were flying straight towards the starship.
Ye Pang suddenly frowned. "Measure their speed!"
"Speed … Mach 15!" The observer stuttered as he reported. Ye Pang's expression turned grim. As for the rest of them, they were all dumbfounded.
What did Mach 15 mean? That was a terrifying speed! In fact, most mechs could not even reach that speed. As for a starship, that was impossible, let alone a transport ship like theirs.
The unknown lifeforms quickly approached the starship.
On the holographic screen, everyone could see the antennae on the foreheads of these lifeforms vibrating slightly.
"Could it be?" Ye Pang muttered to himself.
The seven lifeforms stopped 20 kilometers away from Darvill, and circled around the starship.
Ye Pang could not hold it in any longer. His expression changed. "Oh no! They might be scouts! "
"Then what do we do?" Ye Luo was panicking.
"Sigh, there's nothing we can do. We don't have any combat personnel now. All the combat personnel have left with Ye Yin. This starship is not a warship, there's nothing I can do! "Ye Pang's voice was filled with helplessness.
"Should we take them out?" Ye Chong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
Ye Pang took a look at Ye Chong and nodded. "If they're scouts from a group of lifeforms, we'll be in big trouble if we don't take them out! I'm afraid the main force will be here soon! "
"Oh! Then I'll fight! "
Ye Chong took out Feng Su's dimension keystone from his waist pouch and threw it to her. He spoke in a firm tone, "You'll fight with me."
Feng Su accepted the dimension keystone and silently agreed. She knew that the only ones who could fight on the starship right now were her and the cold young man. Guardian may be strong, but it would be difficult to fight in space.
Ye Pang's eyes brightened, but he was worried. "We don't know how dangerous these lifeforms are, you guys …"
"We'll go get ready," Ye Chong interrupted him and walked out of the control room. Feng Su quickly followed behind him.
Rui Bing bit her lip and looked at Ye Chong, but did not stop him. She knew that Guardian would only be a burden to Ye Chong in space.
Ye Chong and Feng Su were both battle-hardened warriors, and they quickly prepared themselves.
"Phoenix Light Armor!" Everyone in the control room was stunned. No one could have imagined that this seemingly delicate beauty was actually an expert from the Xi Feng Tribe! Ye Pang, on the other hand, looked calm, as if he had expected this.
When Han Jia appeared in front of everyone, everyone couldn't help but exclaim in surprise! Han Jia's beauty was also hard to look at!
"Set comms channel!"
"Setup complete!"
"Please perform mech self-inspection!"
"Mech self-inspection complete!"
"Good luck. Please prepare for attack. Counting down, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Attack! "
The two doors of the warehouse swung open.
Under everyone's nervous gaze, the two mechs with their engines activated shot into space like two dazzling rays of light! (To be continued. If you want to know what happened next, please log on to WWW .CMFU. com. More chapters. Support the author. Support the original!)
