It was surrounded. More precisely, it was surrounded by more than 30 metal men that looked like the one that was chasing it. This filled it with despair. Heavens, that one mech alone was enough to break it down, and now there were 30 of them!
Did the heavens really want it to die?
The 30 metal men surrounded it carefully, and did not do anything else. Knowing that it was going to die today, the red-tailed beast calmed down and returned to its usual composure. It crossed its arms and looked calm as it floated quietly in space. However, its slightly contracted pupils and lightly trembling arrowhead that was ready to fire revealed its determination to fight to the death.
It had decided to fight to the death!
Even though it was in a very bad state right now, and even though the iron man hiding in the dark was very strong, it was not easy for it to escape unscathed in the face of its counterattack before its death! The red-tailed beast's lips curled into a cold smile that humans could not understand. It had given up on escaping. As if it knew what was coming, the red arrowhead tail grew even more crimson, as if it was trying to show off its life force.
However, the red-tailed beast was puzzled by the fact that the metal men did not surround it immediately. Were they trying to capture it alive? The red-tailed beast's eyes grew colder as it thought about it.
Ye Chong, who was hiding among the asteroids, felt that the scene before him was a little strange.
There were mechs here?
And there was more than one mech in front of him. Deep in the Calamitous Asteroid Belt, there was a group of 30 mechs. This was unbelievable to him. Mech squads would come to the Calamitous Asteroid Belt to complete missions, but he believed that no mech squad would go deep into the Calamitous Asteroid Belt. After so many days of flying, he knew that the place was much more dangerous than what the rumors said. If it was not for Mu's help, if it was not for the red-tailed beast's instinctive sense of danger, Ye Chong would have died more than 10 times by now.
These mechs looked unfamiliar to Ye Chong. They were obviously different from the mechs of the Three Aristocratic Families he was familiar with.
Carefully hiding behind a rock, he paid close attention to the development of the situation in front of him.
Ye Chong did not expect the mechs to kill the red-tailed beast. He piloted Han Jia carefully towards the group of beasts.
"Mu, do you have any information about these mechs?" Ye Chong communicated with Mu while carefully controlling Han Jia.
"No." Mu's answer was very straightforward.
Where did these mechs come from? Ye Chong was puzzled. What is this place? This was the Calamitous Asteroid Belt! Only powerful mech pilots dared to enter the Calamitous Asteroid Belt.
Ye Chong had never seen these mechs before, but the design of these mechs was strange. However, he did not want to dwell on the issue. It did not matter who they were. What mattered was how to deal with the red-tailed beast.
Using the rocks as cover, Han Jia snuck up behind the red-tailed beast like a ghost. Ye Chong did not make a move. Instead, he hid. After so many days of chasing, Ye Chong knew the red-tailed beast very well, but he was very familiar with it. This red-tailed beast was definitely one of the most alert creatures he had ever encountered. Now was not a good time to strike.
Ye Chong hid and observed the mechs carefully.
Scholes was the leader of a recon team under Arwa's command. Ever since Arwa became the commander of the 2nd Battalion, Arwa had made a huge change to it. The recon team was even more important. Originally, only 9 officers could stay in a batch, and Scholes was one of them. However, Scholes did not feel any resentment towards the series of changes.
Who was Arwa?
The number one tactical genius in Gray Valley!
To be able to fight under his command was the dream of many. He would even be willing to be a pawn. However, in his heart, the person he admired the most was not Arwa, but the Eldest Miss.
As for why Arwa joined Xiao Wan's side, there were all sorts of theories. Some said that Arwa admired Xiao Wan's beauty, some said that Xiao Wan had secretly promised Arwa a great deal. This was one of the hottest gossip for quite some time.
However, the people of the Xiao Army knew that it was not the case. In fact, it was just a bet between Arwa and the Young Lady. Arwa lost the bet, and Arwa stayed as the commander of the 2nd Battalion of the Xiao Army. The 1st Battalion was still Bei Guang.
Arwa's appointment as the commander of the 2nd Battalion of the Xiao Army shocked the entire Gray Valley.
Scholes was 1.8 meters tall, strong and muscular, with a determined look in his eyes. Ever since he became the leader of the recon team, he had always completed his mission with flying colors.
There are enemies here too? He could not help but frown. Ever since the encounter with the unknown lifeforms, they had disrupted the peace of Gray Valley. They had already wiped out more than 7 forces. What was even more puzzling was that these unknown lifeforms seemed to be getting harder to deal with.
The only thing that calmed them down was that the Research Consortium had begun to organize various forces to fight against the unknown lifeforms. It was said that the Research Consortium had provided a large amount of funding for this alliance.
General Arwa was worried that the unknown lifeforms would appear on the flanks of the allied forces, so he had sent a large number of recon mechs to the flanks.
It seemed like General Arwa's worry was about to become a reality. Looking at the unknown creature in front of him, Scholes felt a little uneasy.
"Did you find any other enemies?" Scholes asked in a low voice.
Soon, he received a reply from his teammate, "No, no other enemies within 150 kilometers."
Could it be alone?
"Attention all units, prepare to attack!" While he did not know why the unknown lifeform would appear here, Scholes quickly gave the order to attack. The unknown lifeform with a bright red arrowhead was difficult to deal with, but Scholes believed that 30 against 1 would not be a problem. Moreover, the Research Consortium's research had proven that the unknown lifeform was not completely immune to energy attacks. When the energy was too strong for its body to absorb, it would be damaged.
The unknown lifeform had been given a name outside of Gray Valley, the red-tailed beast. The name came from a place called Planet Yi Ju. Rumor had it that Planet Yi Ju was the only place where the red-tailed beasts had been completely wiped out. There was a strange and powerful army there, called the Collision Army. The mysterious army was still on lockdown, and no one could infiltrate it. There was little information about them, but there were all sorts of rumors and guesses about them.
In any case, the name was now accepted by most people.
Based on his past experience, he knew that a concentrated attack from 10 long range mechs was enough to destroy a red-tailed beast. Scholes gave the order to attack without hesitation.
30 mechs fired at full force. Hundreds of laser beams tore through the sky and landed on the red-tailed beast. The blinding light engulfed the red-tailed beast. Everyone could only see the light.
Scholes heaved a sigh of relief. He saw clearly that the red-tailed beast did not dodge the attack. Of all the red-tailed beasts he had ever seen, none of them could survive such concentrated firepower.
Scholes' eyes widened as he stared at the holographic screen in disbelief.
How was this possible?
On the holographic screen, the red-tailed beast was still floating in the air, unscathed.
Suddenly, Scholes felt a chill run down his spine, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart.
At that moment, Scholes, who had been staring at the holographic screen with his eyes wide open, felt his vision blur. The place where the red-tailed beast had been on the holographic screen was now empty. The red-tailed beast had disappeared from his sight.
"Ah!" A shrill scream rang in the comms channel.
"Wigan!" Scholes's eyes reddened.
The face of the young man in his twenties, the one who always wore a shy smile appeared in his mind.
Shing! Scholes felt his scalp heating up. His fear was gone, replaced by a murderous intent. "Switch to close range weapons, three by three!" Scholes shouted the order with all his might.
The rest of the mechs took out their close range weapons. They split into three groups, forming a triangle.
Charge, cover, block. Against the red-tailed beast, the three mechs always attacked together, advancing and retreating methodically.
Ye Chong, who was hiding in the dark, watched in awe. He did not expect the mechs to turn the tables so quickly after taking out their close range weapons. This was out of his expectation. Ye Chong, who was well-versed in mech structure, could easily tell that these mechs were all long range mechs.
Long range mechs with close range weapons, how could he not be surprised?
Ye Chong took a closer look and realized the reason. These mechs were able to turn the tables around because of their unique tactics and teamwork. The three mechs formed a group. When each mech clashed with the red-tailed beast, the other two mechs would attack from the flanks or from above, advancing and retreating.
More importantly, none of the mechs showed any sign of fear when fighting against the red-tailed beast. On the contrary, they fought with no regard for their own safety. It was this kind of desperate fighting style that bought him time and gave his companions enough time to support him.
When the three mechs clashed with the red-tailed beast, this small group of mechs would keep the beast busy while the other groups would come to their aid.
What a ruthless bunch! Ye Chong had high praises for these mechs. While their combat skills were nothing to him, their ferocious fighting style required courage.
The red-tailed beast was in a bad situation. Ye Chong could see it clearly. The red-tailed beast was being held back by three mechs. The enemy was too aggressive. Two of the three mechs were heavily injured, while the last mech had one of its arms destroyed by the red-tailed beast's sharp tail. Its photon circuits were exposed in space. This kind of injury was very dangerous for a mech, as it could explode at any time. However, the mech pilot ignored it, and continued to attack the red-tailed beast with its remaining mechanical arm.
It was this team's outstanding performance that created an excellent opportunity for the others.
Their comrades did not waste the opportunity the three mech pilots had created with their lives. The nearest four squads had surrounded the red-tailed beasts from four directions.
Boom! One of the heavily injured mechs suddenly exploded. A beautiful flame blossomed in space.
The shockwave from the explosion hit the red-tailed beast like a hammer. The red-tailed beast lost control of its body, and fell headfirst into the 12 mechs that had just arrived. At the same time, the other two mechs also burst into flames, illuminating the space around them.
How ruthless! Ye Chong was speechless. Ferocious people were not uncommon, but people as ferocious as them were few and far between. More importantly, everyone in this mech squad seemed to be like them, and that was scary!
The red-tailed beast was in for a hard time!
As expected, the red-tailed beast seemed to be stuck in a swamp. It could not move at all, and could not make use of its speed advantage. If not for its quick reflexes and its indestructible arrowhead tail, it would have been chopped into meat paste by the mechs armed with the most basic of close-range weapons.
In the blink of an eye, the other dozen mechs had entered the most suitable fighting positions.
The 26 mechs formed a cage, trapping the red-tailed beast in the middle. Slowly but surely, they began to move towards the center. No matter which direction the red-tailed beast went, it would be attacked by the mechs.
The red-tailed beast was in a precarious situation. In less than half a minute, it had gained a few new wounds.
Ye Chong had piloted Han Jia, and used the super dagger imbued with Do Kun stone. He had used all his strength, and almost lost his life, to leave a single wound on the red-tailed beast. Now, these mechs with the most basic of close-range weapons were beating it up.
"As expected, ganging up is the way to go," Ye Chong thought to himself.
However, before Ye Chong could finish his thoughts, the situation on the battlefield changed again! (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please log on to WWW .CMFU. com. More chapters. Support the author. Support the original!)
