Scars!
The upper half of the red-tailed beast was covered in tiny scars. It would be hard to notice if one did not zoom in.
However, Ye Chong noticed that the red-tailed beasts seemed to be very tired, and looked a little listless.
Ye Chong's heart skipped a beat. He quickly gave his orders, "Is Xiu there? Is Xi Qing there? "
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Xiu and Xi Qing's voices rang in the comms channel.
"Each of you will lead 500 mechs and eliminate the red-tailed beasts. Remember! Slow down and grind them down! "
"Yes sir!" Both of them replied in unison.
The two of them were confused. Based on the way they fought in the past, Sir Jay would never ask them to attack first. After all, they had no advantage in space. Besides, Sir Jay had asked them to slow down, which was a complete opposite of their usual fast pace.
Sir Jay's orders were illogical, but they believed that there must be a reason behind it.
A thousand mechs flew out of the starship and approached the red-tailed beasts that were watching Spectre. The 200 or so red-tailed beasts were watching something, and did not notice the ambush behind them.
It was only when the thousand mechs had surrounded them that the 200 or so red-tailed beasts realized what they were doing.
Just when everyone thought a fierce battle was about to break out, to everyone's surprise, the 200 red-tailed beasts tried to run away in panic.
Abnormal, this situation was too abnormal!
Both Xi Qing and Xiu immediately realized that something was amiss. All the red-tailed beasts they had encountered in the past were ferocious and fearless. There had never been a red-tailed beast that ran away, much less 200 of them.
They seemed to understand what Sir Jay meant, but there was no time for them to think about it.
Xi Qing and Xiu gave the same order in unison, "Lasso!"
Lasso was one of Sir Jay's standard battle tactics. Sir Jay had a total of 13 battle tactics, and lasso was the ninth. It was a classic tactic where the enemy outnumbered the enemy. They surrounded the enemy but did not attack, avoiding direct confrontation with the enemy. Instead, they used their mobility to whittle down the enemy's strength.
They had never used lasso in their previous battles. The red-tailed beasts were fast and agile creatures, and mechs were no match for them.
Even though this was their first time using the Lasso Tactic, they had already practiced the Ancient Three Sets of Tactics set down by Sir Jay. This time, there was not the slightest bit of jerkiness.
The thousand mechs spread out like balloons, forming groups of twos and threes. Attack, encirclement, entanglement, each team cooperated with each other and performed their own duties. Every team was abnormally mobile and agile. They did not fight the red-tailed beasts head-on. Instead, if the red-tailed beasts tried to escape, they would engage them. They were like a noose, strangling the enemy's neck. No matter how the enemy struggled, they could not escape from the noose.
Soon, the trap tactic worked. Xi Qing and Shu also noticed that something was wrong with the red-tailed beasts. They seemed to have just gone through an extremely intense battle, and all of them were exhausted. The 1000 mech pilots had not fully recovered, but it was still a piece of cake for them to deal with the 200 exhausted red-tailed beasts.
After half an hour of fighting, none of the 200 red-tailed beasts escaped. The most important result was that they had captured more than 30 red-tailed beasts alive. This was the first time they had captured a red-tailed beast alive.
Living red-tailed beasts were of great research value, and would allow the humans to find a way to eliminate these creatures faster. However, Ye Chong did not need to worry about that. He did not have any experts in this field in his fleet. Ye Chong could not find a way to imprison the red-tailed beasts either, so he ordered the 30 red-tailed beasts to be killed.
With the 200 red-tailed beasts gone, the nervous crew members heaved a sigh of relief. It was not a pleasant experience to encounter these creatures so soon after escaping from death.
Ye Chong thought. The red-tailed beasts seemed to have just gone through an intense battle, and they kept looking at Spectre. Did something happen here? What did they fight with? Humans? Or some other creature?
The red-tailed beasts must have just retreated from the battle, and were watching. What did that mean? Ye Chong began to ask questions about the details he had discovered, and tried to answer them.
Judging from their fatigue, the enemy must have put a lot of pressure on them. However, the enemy was strong, but they were probably evenly matched. Otherwise, the red-tailed beasts would have fled long ago, instead of watching from afar.
They were looking in the direction of Planet Spectre.
What was happening there? The brown planet Spectre had dark brown ripples on its surface, but there was no sign of green. From here, Ye Chong thought that Spectre was a barren planet, uninhabitable. However, he also knew that there were many strange creatures on this planet. Even if there were living creatures on this desolate planet, he would not be the slightest bit surprised.
He decided to investigate it. He had a premonition that he would make a new discovery here.
He was not like the mentalists in Xi Feng Tribe, who had strong premonitions, but he could not ignore his own strong premonitions. He knew that this premonition of his was a reaction to the rich experience he had accumulated over a long period of time. He must have missed some details, and could not make a definite judgment.
Xi Qing and Shu strongly objected to Sir Jay's risky behavior, but they could not do anything about it. They were reassured by the fact that Sir Jay was a powerful mech pilot himself, and that his mech was no ordinary mech. No matter what happened, he should be able to protect himself.
Ye Chong piloted Han Jia and flew towards the nearby planet Spectre. Shang accompanied him.
"Sigh, there's no pretty girl there. I don't understand why you're so insistent." Shang said disapprovingly, and then said something that made Ye Chong even more speechless, "Ye, are you so thirsty that you can't be choosy? Er, is it love between humans and beasts? Or is it love that transcends species? "
Even with Ye Chong's composure, he could not help but roll his eyes. He did not reply. He knew that if he did, Shang would only get more excited.
Shang said earnestly, "Ye, you have to control yourself. Bing Bing is still waiting for you! Take it easy, take it easy. "
Ye Chong could not take it anymore. "Shang, can't you just shut up?"
"Hehe, Ye, do you want me to show you my gallery of pretty girls? This is a brand new collection. It's a real person's scale, with accurate data, and the largest gallery. Also, I'll give you the latest edition of The Battle of the Dragon and the Tiger. What do you think? "
Ye Chong ignored him.
"Alright, alright. It seems like you won't be tempted if I don't take out my trump card, Yezi. Bing Bing, Feng Su, Lunatic Guan, Qiu Man, tell me which one you want. Ye, I'm only showing you because we're so close, "Shang continued to tempt him.
Ye Chong did not budge. He stared at the holographic screen.
Shang spoke with disdain, "Ye, you can't be too passionate on the inside. You can be dangerous! Daring to love and daring to do, what was the use of a man's broad mind? Of course, it's for love … "
Suddenly, the incessant Shang fell silent.
Ye Chong did not understand what Shang was trying to do.
After three minutes, Shang still did not speak.
Five minutes later, Shang seemed to have disappeared. Ye Chong was worried that something had happened to him. He asked with concern, "Shang, what's wrong?"
After a full 10 seconds, Shang's listless voice came, "Mu said just now, a man should be harder on himself. Focus is the best choice."
"What do you mean?" Ye Chong did not understand.
"I asked him the same thing." Shang was still listless.
Shang explained, "And he said," It saves energy. "
Ye Chong nodded, confused. "Yes, Mu has a point." To him, saving energy was the most important thing. He did not think about the relationship between focus and saving energy.
Two light pseudo-intelligences and a beast in human form were discussing a very human topic.
Spectre was covered in an atmosphere, so Ye Chong had to slow down Han Jia. Shang came out from the dimension keystone and flew alongside Han Jia.
While he did not know what was going on down there, he dared not be careless.
The two mechs were descending rapidly.
"Fly forward," Shang reminded Ye Chong. Shang's holographic scanning system was much better than the one on Han Jia.
Ye Chong followed Shang.
Below them was a mountain range, with bottomless valleys. Han Jia and Shang flew along the mountain range.
"Ye, look!" Shang's voice was no longer frivolous, but deep and experienced.
Han Jia's photon processor immediately showed them an image.
It was a red-tailed beast! But it was a dead red-tailed beast. It lay quietly on a piece of rock, its usually ferocious face now incomparably calm, its dark red eyes dull and lifeless.
Han Jia and Shang landed beside the red-tailed beast's body.
"It died not long ago," Shang concluded. Shang concluded. The red-tailed beast's body was still warm, but its skin had loosened.
Ye Chong quickly found something new. "Shang, here!"
Han Jia sprinted not far from the red-tailed beast's body. It was the remains of a mech.
