More than 200 mechs were approaching at high speed. After so many years, the mech models in the Five Galaxies had changed a lot, and Ye Chong could hardly remember their names. This was probably a standard mech model. It had a pair of grayish-blue wings, and a compact body structure. The designers of this mech model had obviously put in a lot of effort to improve its mobility.
Appilok frowned. He could see that the mechs were in combat mode. This obviously unfriendly approach was not something he could accept.
He looked at Ye Chong. Ye Chong shook his head. These 200 mechs would not be able to do any damage to Darkniss. How could the sturdiest warship in the world fail to defend against these mechs? Ye Chong did not want to mess things up. In the past, he would have killed these people without hesitation. However, he was much more mature now. His time was limited, and there was no need to complicate the situation.
"I'll handle it," Gu Qing volunteered. She was the head of the Gu Family, and had seen much of the world.
Ye Chong nodded. It was best to have Gu Qing's help in this situation.
Both sides quickly connected.
"Please identify yourself." The voice of the person was cold.
"The Gu Family of Tian Luo," Gu Qing's answer was simple.
"Welcome to Csebesini Galaxy." The person spoke matter-of-factly, "We welcome all humans, other than pirates, to enter our galaxy. Your information has been sent to the Immigration Office. The Immigration Office will soon assign you a place to live. Please cooperate. "
"Alright," Gu Qing replied plainly. She understood what the assignment meant. However, it was already a miracle that she was still alive after the ordeal. It was impossible to maintain the integrity of the Gu's. How could the rulers of Csebesini Star Region allow another group that could pose a threat to them to exist?
"According to the latest military order, we will temporarily conscript all large starships and modify them into warships to fight against the red-tailed beasts. As for your losses, we will compensate you according to the market price. "
"What?" Gu Qing was surprised. She quickly realized the severity of the situation and denied it. "No way!"
As soon as these words came out, a layer of cold sweat immediately appeared on her forehead. In the blink of an eye, she understood the whole situation. There was one thing she was certain of - Ye Chong would never give away his warship, no matter what.
"Please consider it carefully," the man's tone was filled with threats. It was no wonder that they were so domineering. Naturally, they had to pay a certain price to seek protection here. Besides, all of the aristocratic families had handed over their large starships obediently.
From the corner of her eyes, she saw Appilok gestured for a fight. Gu Qing panicked. She quickly said, "We need one large starship. You can have the rest. Yes, in exchange, we don't need any compensation."
"I can't afford it. I have no right to violate the military's conscription order." The other party's voice was full of pressure.
The crew of Darkniss had never experienced such humiliation before. They were enraged. If Ye Chong had stayed silent, they would have shot down all the mechs. Even the well-mannered Sha Ya could not help but feel angry. She had only been humiliated twice, once by Sun Sieha, and the other by Ye Chong. One was the King, and the other was the master. That was acceptable to her.
Shooters valued honor and dignity. The other party's unreasonable demand was a blatant provocation to her.
Appilok gestured to a crew member beside him. The crew member nodded in understanding.
He turned around and waited for Ye Chong's order.
Ye Chong did not want to escalate the situation, but that did not mean he would back down unconditionally. Besides, from the other party's tone, Ye Chong could tell that there was no turning back.
If that was the case, he would have to show his strength in order to get what he wanted.
Ye Chong nodded to Appilok. Gu Qing saw this and closed her eyes in despair. She knew that once the two sides clashed, they would be at a disadvantage.
Appilok was already prepared. He gave the order without hesitation, "Warning shot!"
12 laser beams shot out from Darkniss and into the group of mechs.
The 12 mechs' throats were pierced, and they lost their balance and fell to the ground. Boom! The 12 mechs hit the ground at the same time, creating 12 craters on the ground. Dust rose from the ground. None of the 12 mechs exploded, but they were now completely immobilized.
Wei Zheng's first thought was, "Are they crazy?" Did they not know their situation? Did they not know that they were here for protection?
When the 12 mechs were hit, Wei Zheng was shocked by the enemy's accuracy. When the 12 mechs fell, they did not explode. Wei Zheng heaved a sigh of relief. He had to admit that he had deep feelings for his subordinates.
However, the bone-chilling coldness that followed almost instantly froze him stiff. He finally realized the distance between them and the enemy's fleet, and how difficult it was to penetrate the mechs' throats without causing them to explode.
Sniper mech pilots!
He swallowed hard. He felt like he was going crazy. Sniper mech pilots, at least 12 sniper mech pilots. What did that mean?
It meant … He wanted to retreat immediately. After all, it was at this distance that his comrades were easily shot down. In other words, if they clashed, he would be the first to be shot down.
The scythe of the God of Death seemed to have touched his cheek at this moment, and that deep and cold chill spread uncontrollably throughout his body.
Sniper mech pilots were known as the ones who could turn the tide of a battle. When they were mentioned, the first thought that came to people's minds was not how powerful they were, but how rare they were.
Now, however, there were 12 of them. This was enough to stun Wei Zheng.
One sniper mech pilot was terrifying enough. Twelve sniper mech pilots working together … Wei Zheng's scalp went numb.
He sent out a request for backup immediately. This was a problem that should be handled by the higher-ups.
Wei Zheng ordered his subordinates to retreat slowly. Staying at this distance any longer would cause him to panic.
However, four laser beams barely grazed past the last four mechs. This was a warning move that stopped the entire fleet.
"Think this through. Your provocation will only endanger your safety …" A laser beam flew past Wei Zheng's mech's throat. The distance between the two was less than a centimeter.
Wei Zheng's voice stopped abruptly. He was drenched in sweat. Since when did the Gu Family of Tian Luo become so powerful? Twelve sniper mech pilots. This number … was terrifying …
Time passed so slowly that Wei Zheng felt like he was going crazy. His subordinates were also trembling in fear. No one expected to encounter such a troublesome opponent today. The Gu Family of Tian Luo was no ordinary aristocrat. Many people sighed in their hearts. They were actually so unlucky today. They had never encountered such an arrogant team before.
The Gu Family disciples on the other starships did not know what was going on. However, when they saw Darkniss' sudden attack, they thought that the two sides had clashed. These days, they were used to being on the same side as Darkniss. Moreover, the mech pilots from Darkniss were in charge of their training. This made them more inclined towards Darkniss.
Therefore, they reacted immediately.
The formation of the fleet was broken. They quickly formed into battle formation. Almost every starship sounded the battle alarm. All the combatants were ready for battle as soon as possible.
Gu Qing's expression changed slightly. She sighed in her heart. It seemed like she had no choice but to fight alongside Darkniss. After the initial shock, she quickly calmed down. She thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized that this was an opportunity. Ye Chong and his people were mysterious, but she knew how powerful they were.
She had always wanted to enter Csebesini Galaxy. Why did she not think of following him? It was risky, but at least the Gu Family could avoid the fate of being destroyed. However, this way, the Gu Family's fate would be tied to the enemy's.
Gu Qing was a decisive person. She made up her mind within a second.
The Gu Family disciples who received Gu Qing's order worked even harder. They were even ready to attack.
The Gu Family's determination made Wei Zheng's expression change again. Inside, he was cursing the reinforcements. They were always so happy when there were benefits, but now they were like turtles when there was trouble.
Wei Zheng did not know that this incident had alerted the authorities of Csebesini. This was the first time something like this had happened since the red-tailed beasts disaster. While the enemy was a large family like the Gu Family, the authorities did not want the Gu Family to set a precedent. This could lead to endless trouble.
Once the precedent was set, the others would follow suit, and their position as the ruling party would be seriously challenged.
Therefore, they issued a strict order. They ordered the local troops to kill the Gu Family fleet if they did not obey their orders. To intimidate the other forces, the authorities decided to broadcast the entire battle live.
To prevent pirates from entering Csebesini Galaxy through this warp jump point, the authorities stationed a large number of troops, numbering up to a hundred thousand.
News of the enemy's 12 sniper mech pilots had also reached the authorities. This further strengthened the authorities' determination to eliminate them. Sniper mech pilots were a nightmare to them. If they were hidden in the dark, it would be impossible to defend against them.
Thirty thousand mechs were charging towards them. This team was the closest to the location, and they were the first to arrive.
Darkniss slowly flew out from the fleet. Its huge body attracted many greedy gazes. It would be such a blessing to have such a starship. The 15-kilometer long body was enough to turn it into a floating fortress, a mobile advanced base.
All eyes were on Darkniss.
The docile Darkniss finally bared its fangs and claws under everyone's watchful eyes.
"Open the shields."
"Energy charge."
"Target locked."
…
The order flowed like water through the comms channel. The entire warship began to operate nervously. Every crew member carried out the controls meticulously. This weapon of war was completely activated at this moment.
The shields on the warship Darkniss opened up, revealing the giant cannons in front of them without any obstructions. The shockingly thick cannon barrel was awe-inspiring, the deep blue light emitted from the energy filling was even a little dazzling when it shone on the black hull of the ship.
Everyone gasped. The comms channel between Csebesini's mech pilots was dead silent.
One, two, three, four … 46! 46 cannons. It was a crazy number.
However, it was not over yet. The 600 shooters were in position. All 600 shooting pods were opened, and their laser guns were pointed at the mechs.
This was a day that many would never forget.
The passageway doors opened one after another, and mechs flew out one after another.
This time, everyone was dumbfounded.
Harmony of the Winter Aria was one of the more glamorous mechs Ye Chong had ever used. It was the best mech in the Ji Family back then. Now, due to the use of a large number of rare alloys, the unique luster of these rare alloys made them look even more gorgeous and textured.
The laser guns in their hands were the work of the Gray Valley Research Consortium. The people could tell at first glance that the laser guns were extraordinary.
This world was crazy!
So many mechs appeared at once, and they were all the same. Which mech pilot here was not a seasoned veteran in the mech pilot community? They could tell the quality of a mech at a glance.
The comms channel was filled with a collective gasp.
If there was only one mech, no matter how good it was, it would not be able to achieve this effect. More than four thousand Harmony of the Winter Aria appeared in the sky at the same time. The visual conflict it brought to the audience was extremely intense.
One super mech against more than 4,000 super mechs. The difference between the two was not just a matter of numbers.
This scene was the first scene that appeared in the news that was suddenly interrupted. "As the Gu Family of Tian Luo disobeyed the government's orders and deliberately stirred up trouble, the government is responsible for the safety of the people …" Before the host could finish, she saw the scene on the holographic screen, and was stunned.
She had just received the order from the government, but before she could digest the news, she saw this shocking scene. She immediately forgot about the rest of her words.
However, the people in front of the holographic screen were excited.
"Oh my God! What's going on? "
"It's beautiful. What mech is this? Where can I buy it? Can I order it? … "
"What a strong lineup … F * ck, this is awesome!"
…
In contrast to the silence of the mech pilots present, the citizens who witnessed this scene were all cheering and clapping their hands. The government did not expect this. By the time they realized it, it was too late. Since they had the advantage from the start, Csebesini became the last paradise for them. Hence, asylum seekers swarmed in. Bribery, insider trading … The government was corrupted at an alarming rate. The government today was no longer the government of the past.
The 30 thousand mechs stood before Darkniss like kindergarteners before their teacher. Not a single one dared to move.
They were not stupid. The enemy's mechs were not on the same level as theirs. No, they were several levels apart. They had the advantage in numbers, but the enemy had warships! That thing would turn to ash if it was even grazed. The commander of this garrison saw even more things. The other side's tactical attainment was much higher than his own side's. This was the conclusion he came to after observing the small details of the other party. For example, the time of the attack. In less than 5 minutes, all 4,000 mechs had launched their attack. If it were his own troops, they would not have been able to do it in less than 15 minutes. This little detail, which was not noticed by others, could truly show the difference between the two sides.
The enemy was the elite. How could they fight them? They had the advantage in numbers, but the commander knew that the difference in strength between the two sides could not be overcome by numbers. The enemy also had warships. The commander could only gulp when he saw that luxurious warship.
The local garrison, which had been swaggering around before, was now having a good time. Basically, all the civilians who had fled into Csebesini Star Region were being exploited here. Now that someone was not buying it, they were all excited.
According to the statistics, the official channel's viewership had exceeded 42% for the first time. Before this, the highest was only 11%. At this time, the host had not recovered from the shock.
Everyone was paying close attention to the situation.
