Yang Ming panted heavily. The air in his lungs felt like they were on fire. His hands were trembling, and his fingers were pale from overexertion. Beside him, there were seven or eight young people lying on the ground.
Yang Ming was not skilled enough to repair mechs, but he had no problem repairing simple mechanisms. He was still young, but his status as Master Harel's disciple was enough to earn him respect. Besides, in this fleet, youth was the main theme. Almost all the important positions were filled with young men.
Yang Ming had proven his ability with his performance. As the person in charge of the maintenance of the starship's mechanisms, he had done a good job.
"Tunnel 9 is closed. Maintenance personnel, please enter immediately." The order came to Yang Ming's ears. His trembling hands suddenly calmed down.
"Guys, time to work!" Yang Ming's voice was a little hoarse. He walked to the side of his companions and patted each of them on the shoulder.
These youths, who were already exhausted to the extreme, struggled to open their weary eyes, using all the strength in their bodies to struggle to stand.
Yang Ming could see the fatigue of his companions. He himself was so tired that he did not even want to lift a finger. However, the battle was not over yet. They could not rest. There were eight of them, and they were responsible for all the mechanisms on the starship. With no one to help them, the experienced maintenance personnel had the most important task. They had to repair the damaged mechs as soon as possible. The battle ahead was far more intense than here.
Yang Ming and the rest entered Tunnel 9.
The tunnel was a mess. The blood and flesh of the red-tailed beasts were everywhere. The stench of blood was nauseating. It was not the first time Yang Ming had seen something like this, but he still felt uncomfortable.
However, he felt excited every time he saw it. It was not just him. His companions were also proud of the results.
"Heh, another three! I've done some calculations. We've already lost eleven of them today. We've hit the jackpot today! "
"You're so useless. You're satisfied with 11? I say we need at least 20 of them! "
"Nonsense! 20? What's the use of 20? Of course we need 30! "
"Haha …"
Yang Ming forced a smile, but his hands did not stop working. He began inspecting every single mechanism. These red-tailed beasts were so strong that they could easily destroy the traps before they died. They needed to repair the broken mechanisms so that they could use this trap again.
Ye Chong sat in the control room of Haskel. On the holographic screen, the red-tailed beasts were swarming towards the fleet. As the leading ship, Haskel was their primary target.
Ye Chong's face was calm and expressionless. Strangely, he was not at the frontlines of the battle. In such a large-scale battle, the strength of a single person was negligible. In the entire fleet, he was the only one with the ability to command! Although Xi Qing and Xiu were very outstanding, they had no experience in such a large-scale battle.
His three months of fighting against Mu and Shang in the game had not gone to waste. Ye Chong was now calm and composed, and had the demeanor of a great general.
Mu was best at this kind of skirmish and positional warfare. It could maximize the strength of his army. In this aspect, even Shang was no match for him, let alone Ye Chong. However, Ye Chong had studied both Mu and Shang. He had been trying to imitate Mu's strength. If he did not improve at all, how could he last till the end of the battle?
Unfortunately, his forces were too weak, and they only had one type of army!
The red-tailed beasts were cunning, coming and going like the wind, looking for the starships at the periphery of the fleet. They would first look for an opening at the periphery, and then focus their attacks on one of the starships.
So far, Ye Chong had lost 5 starships.
This tactic was a little familiar! Ye Chong remembered the time in the game, when Shang used this tactic to devour him bit by bit. Ye Chong remembered the battle vividly. The feeling of helplessly watching his forces being devoured by the enemy bit by bit was terrible. Ye Chong remembered it not only because of the helplessness, but also because Shang's tactic, which he had no idea how to deal with, was completely defeated by Mu!
Ever since then, Ye Chong began to understand that battles could be fought like this.
The explosion of the starships illuminated Ye Chong's calm face. He decided to make some changes.
Arwa was dressed neatly in his military uniform, sitting straight in front of Xiao Wan. Although his face was still calm, the gratification in his eyes was obvious. The young mistress had finally recovered!
Xiao Wan's beautiful face was now haggard, but her eyes shone with determination.
"Thank you for your hard work these days!" Xiao Wan said sincerely.
Arwa bowed slightly, "It's my duty."
Xiao Wan looked at Arwa's well-ironed military uniform, and felt touched. Arwa used to hate wearing military uniforms. He was the only one in the Xiao Family Army who did not wear one. While it was a small detail, it made Xiao Wan understand how much effort he had put into this situation. Arwa used to look like a simple village boy, but now he was full of vigor.
"How's the situation now?" Xiao Wan asked.
"Not good." Arwa looked gloomy, and explained, "We've lost our best chance!"
Xiao Wan was surprised, but quickly understood. She knew that Arwa was talking about the battle at the frontline. Arwa had objected to the battle, but his words carried little weight, and no one paid attention to him. The Xiao Family Army only had a little strength left in this battle. Even the 1st Legion's General Bei Guang was not spared. Xiao Wan's heart ached at the thought.
Arwa realized he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed the topic, "But it's not like we don't have a chance."
Now that he had the young mistress' attention, Arwa quickly said, "I've gathered many mech pilots along the way. Now we have 1500 mech pilots. This is not a large force, but it's enough for us to reach Planet Duodania. As long as we can enter He Yue Galaxy, there will be no problem! "
Xiao Wan was confused, "Don't He Yue Galaxy have red-tailed beasts too?"
Arwa explained, "He Yue Galaxy has red-tailed beasts too, but it's vast and deep enough. It would be a piece of cake to accommodate our small number of people in any place. Besides, He Yue Galaxy is in a tense situation, but its foundation is not shaken. We can choose a corner to hide in. I believe that even if the aristocratic families manage to drive the red-tailed beasts out of He Yue Galaxy, they will be greatly weakened. That will be the best time for us to rise again. On the other hand, Gray Valley is not only small, it lacks depth, and lost half of its combat power. It's only a matter of time before Gray Valley falls into the hands of the red-tailed beasts. " It was only at this moment that the seemingly ordinary Arlwa had the aura of a legendary tactical genius.
Arwa's analysis made Xiao Wan fall into deep thought.
Arwa's analysis made sense, but if that was the case, she would have to leave Gray Valley, the place she grew up in. The possibility of her coming back was almost negligible.
"You think going to He Yue Galaxy is more beneficial?" Xiao Wan asked after a long while.
Arwa answered without hesitation, "Yes!"
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Wan made up her mind. "Alright! Let's go to He Yue Galaxy! "
Arwa was overjoyed, "Young Mistress is wise!"
"Wise? If I were wise, I wouldn't have let Guang die like this. "Xiao Wan revealed a hint of sorrow as she spoke with a hint of self-mockery.
Arwa could only sigh to himself. He suddenly thought of a problem, "Young Mistress, we need close combat mechs urgently. Without close combat mechs, we will be at a disadvantage against the red-tailed beasts. "
"Close combat mechs!" Xiao Wan muttered. She suddenly looked up at Arwa, "What do you suggest?"
"Snatch!" Arwa forced the word out.
"Snatch?" Xiao Wan's expression did not change, as if it was nothing out of the ordinary. She asked, "Who should we snatch?"
Xiao Wan suddenly looked at Arwa with a half-smile, "You must have a plan in mind. Tell me."
Arwa smiled brightly, "Young Mistress, you are wise indeed. There are not many forces with close combat mechs now, and most of them are not people we can afford to offend. After thinking about it, I think the Research Consortium is the only option. "
"The Research Consortium?" Xiao Wan was moved, but she did not reject the idea immediately. She said, "The Research Consortium is not a force we can afford to offend. I'm afraid your idea will not work."
Arwa chuckled, "That may not be the case. The Research Consortium's intelligence network has always been the best in Gray Valley. Nothing can be hidden from them. The news from the frontline must have reached them. The Research Consortium is strong, but they do not have many mech pilots. If that's the case, they will most likely concentrate on defense. Besides, they have always been cowardly. I'm guessing that the Research Consortium's base nearby is already empty. In the rush, they might not have been able to move the items in their storage. They are all ownerless now. Hehe, we might as well take them. Of course, it all depends on our luck. "
Xiao Wan thought about Arwa's words carefully. She gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind, "Alright! We'll do as you say! " (To be continued, if you want to know what happens next, please log on to WWW .CMFU.COM. There are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
