When this video was transmitted back to Planet Kasent, it caused a huge uproar. Kasent had stopped moving since a few days ago, but there were still many who harbored delusions. The civilians could not find a starship that was willing to take them in such a short period of time, so many of them were left stranded on the planet.
Every city was in chaos. The streets were filled with mechs fleeing for their lives. From time to time, mechs would collide into each other, creating balls of fire in the air. The people on the ground were panicking as well. They carried bags of all sizes, dragging their children with them. Their faces were filled with fear and despair.
The docking areas of every city were in chaos as well. The parked starships tried their best to take off, while the people below the starships tried their best to climb onto the starships. Curses, cries, begging … all mixed together. The once bustling cities were now a living hell.
The docking area's control system was completely paralyzed. Without ground control, the starships could only force themselves to take off.
Suddenly, two starships in the sky collided. One of the starships suffered a severe blow to the rear of its engine, while the other starship's port side was sliced in half.
The two starships lost their balance and spun in the air, trying to regain their balance.
However, their efforts were futile.
The two starships swayed as if they were drunk, falling from 900 meters in the air and crashing heavily into the docking area, which was already packed with people and starships.
Boom! Boom! Two loud explosions. Two huge balls of fire shot out in all directions, along with countless debris.
The two falling starships were like the fuse that ignited a barrel of dynamite. The docking area became a barrel of gunpowder, exploding with a loud boom.
Starships after starships were caught in the shockwave, exploding like bombs.
The people around them, who could barely walk, were dealt a devastating blow. They did not even have time to scream before they were consumed by the scorching flames. Those who were further away from the starships did not escape their fate either. The high-speed and scorching debris pierced through their bodies and crushed their brains.
The injured people writhed in pools of blood, screaming and moaning in pain. As far as the eye could see, there was not a single person left standing in one piece in the entire docking area.
The mysterious Jay's speculation was finally proven on this day. However, God did not give the hesitant or doubtful people a chance. Reality was cruel and decisive.
Apart from a handful of survivors, everyone else had paid the price for their choices. That was their lives.
As Jay predicted, the red-tailed beasts landed on Kasent in three hours. They met up with each other. After another two hours, they had completely sealed off the area around Kasent.
At this point, the Gray Valley had been forcibly cut into two parts.
The people surrounded by the red-tailed beasts panicked. After the news was confirmed, the starships that were heading towards Kasent immediately turned towards the Calamitous Asteroid Belt. With a glimmer of hope, they headed towards the legendary warp jump point. At this moment, they had no other choice.
Those who were lucky enough to escape, as well as those who were watching from afar, witnessed the birth of a genius. Jay's previous victory was still questionable, but this time, no one doubted his ability anymore.
Jay's reputation rose to new heights as a result. Countless accolades, praises, and admiration added to his mysterious aura.
The mysterious Jay became more and more mysterious. To the people, he was the epitome of invincibility. He became Gray Valley's last hope.
Everyone was looking forward to the appearance of the strong man who could bring them victory. Many people were praying that he could successfully pass through the Calamitous Asteroid Belt. There were already many volunteers heading to Planet Spectre, hoping to join this amazing fleet. They believed that the amazing Jay would be able to achieve victory once again.
Ye Chong ordered them to speed up through the unstable region, but the density of the floating rocks was too high. They were still moving at a slow pace.
Casualties occurred from time to time, but apart from the beginning, there were no more large-scale casualties.
However, Ye Chong dared not let his guard down. It was now the third day. This was their last day in the Calamitous Asteroid Belt.
This was also the most crucial day.
In terms of distance, they were already very close to the warp jump point, only 1,800 kilometers away. Normally, it would only take them an hour to travel this distance, but now, it would take them 12 hours.
They finally passed through the unstable region, but as they moved forward, the pressure on the fleet increased. Ye Chong had no choice but to deploy the remaining 1,300 mech pilots to protect the fleet. The situation improved slightly with the addition of these manpower. However, after five hours, the situation began to deteriorate.
Ye Chong had no more manpower left.
For the remaining seven hours of the journey, they had no choice but to endure it. The next part of the journey would be the most dangerous and difficult in the past three days.
In order to reduce the area of attack, the fleet's formation was compressed to the minimum. But even so, it wasn't of much help to the situation.
The mechs surrounding the starships were already showing signs of fatigue, and casualties were beginning to appear. Before this, the mechs had never suffered any casualties. In fact, the pressure on the fleet was increasing, and they finally reached a critical point.
Ye Chong's expression darkened when he saw this.
Rocks rained down on the fleet. In three minutes, 50 mechs were smashed to pieces. It was no wonder that Ye Chong's expression turned sour. At this rate, it would only take two and a half hours for all the mechs to be exhausted.
This was unacceptable to Ye Chong.
However, at this point, there was nothing he could do. The only thing he could rely on now was the resilience of the crew.
Ye Chong decided to attack personally. He did not believe that a leader should not be the vanguard.
He believed that any effort would push them one step closer to victory.
Hence, he attacked!
In the entire fleet, other than Xi Qing, Shu and a few others who had seen Ye Chong fight, the others had never seen Sir Jay in action. Even Xi Qing and Shu had never seen Ye Chong fight in a mech before. In their minds, Sir Jay was the commander, and was more skilled in strategy.
No one knew that Sir Jay's forte lay not in strategy, but in combat!
When Lord Jay decided to take the field himself, the crew of the Haskel were stunned. They stared at their leader in disbelief.
Ye Chong did not give them a chance to stop him. He only left them with his back view.
When news of Sir Jay's arrival reached the ears of the mech pilots who were struggling to hold on, everyone thought they had heard it wrong.
When Ye Chong's Han Jia flew out of Haskel's Passage 1, the comms channel was filled with cheers. Everyone's fatigue seemed to have disappeared, and they were full of energy, their blood boiling!
Ye Chong did not know that his appearance had changed the morale of the crew. In fact, he always thought that while he had improved a lot, he was still a long way from being a real commander.
Ye Chong only hoped that his little bit of strength could buy them a little more hope. That was all.
The beautiful Han Jia danced beautifully in the dark amidst the rain of rocks. Its graceful body, simple yet precise movements, and superb speed were full of strength and mechanical beauty.
All the mech pilots were surprised to find that Sir Jay was far stronger than them. No matter how many rocks rained down on Sir Jay's mech, the elfin mech would always dodge them easily, or use its own weapons to nullify them.
Some of the smaller rocks became Sir Jay's weapons as well. He would use his mech's charge to change the trajectory of the rocks and send them crashing towards the incoming rocks.
Sir Jay's effortless and unruffled demeanor influenced all the mech pilots. The comms channel was once again filled with thunderous cheers, and all the crew members were energized by the sight.
Sir Jay's mech was not the only one in the limelight. Beside Sir Jay was a blue and white mech with a broken arm. Its right arm was holding a Falco sniper rifle. The mediocre sniper rifle was surprisingly effective in the hands of the mech pilot.
The unknown mech pilot was extraordinarily calm. Not a single shot missed its mark. His accurate long range sniping and wide area of fire coverage worked well together. His long range mech skills were dazzling as if he was juggling acrobatics.
His teamwork with Sir Jay was even more seamless, and every time they worked together, it was as if they were on the tip of the spear. Sir Jay's phantom-like maneuvers and the one-armed mech's unpredictable marksmanship complemented each other perfectly. The flying rocks did not even cause a ripple in their path. Beams of blue light of varying thickness bloomed like flowers, and the tiny Han Jia danced like a fairy among the flowers.
No one knew who the mech pilot in the one-armed mech was, just like how no one knew that Sir Jay was a super mech pilot. Only the first crew members who joined the fleet guessed that the mech pilot with the one-armed mech might be the other leader who had never shown his face.
In the face of danger, Shang could not help but intervene. (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please log on to WWW .CMFU. com. More chapters. Support the author. Support legal reading!)
