Chapter 1209 - Collision?
Chapter 1209 Collision?
The Three Stars Lock referred to the three planets that formed a triangular shape in the planetary sector. The gravity from the three planets allowed them to keep a certain distance while rotating, forming a triangle.
This was the logistics headquarters of the Twilight Empire. Once this place was destroyed, more than half of the logistics of the Twilight army would be razed to the ground.
That year, Ling Xiao received an order to destroy this place so that they could freeze half of the military strength of Twilight. The Twilight Empire would need at least one month before they could recuperate from such loss. However, their soldiers couldn’t wait that long. Without enough food, the morale of the soldiers would be affected. They wouldn’t be able to destroy the Twilight Empire entirely but it could spark tensions within the nation. Civil wars might even happen.
“Commander, only one starship is stuck outside the death wormhole due to turbulence. The rest of the starships have gone through the wormhole successfully. The rescue team is helping the lagging starship now.” He Xuyang quickly reported the situation.
“Don’t mind about them first. Our signal waves can’t be hidden from Twilight for too long. Order the starships to attack immediately. All the mecha operators will move out to protect the starships as well as participate in the attack,” Ling Xiao said with a serious tone.
“Yes. commander.” He Xuyang received the order.
The order was sent to all the starships. Soon, multiple mecha operators could be seen ejecting out of the starships.
Ling Xiao suddenly stood up.
He turned around and walked out of the command center. He Xuyang asked hurriedly, “General, where are you going?”
“To help them,” Ling Xiao replied calmly.
He Xuyang’s eyes lit up. “(Belief]?”
Ling Xiao gave a speechless expression. “What else can I use?” Wasn’t this a stupid question?
“General, I’ll wait for your good news,” He Xuyang replied excitedly. He could finally see the general operating [Belief].
He Xuyang was quite sad when he didn’t manage to see (Belief] entering the Zuojing wormhole. He had followed Ling Xiao for a long time but he never saw the general operating (Belief) personally. He Xuyang felt that this was embarrassing. He couldn’t even boast to his old friends.
What a pitiful life he had…
The Letian Mecha Clan was a normal mecha clan in the 23rd division. They would be the third batch to be ejected. The first two batches consisted of ace mecha clans, and they would be protecting the starships at the frontline.
Every mecha clan had a different arrangement. The frontline consisted of the most powerful mecha clans while the weaker ones would stay at the back. They would only reinforce their comrades when they couldn’t resist anymore.
“This is frustrating. When can we go to the frontline?” A young special-class mecha operator looked at the ace mecha masters in front of him as he pouted.
“You have to become an ace operator first.” Their team leader answered him.
“Leader, you’re an ace operator. Why aren’t you going?” The young man was still inexperienced about the world so he didn’t realise what he was saying might come off as rude.
“If it wasn’t for you little brats, I would be at the frontline.” The team leader laughed as he scolded the young man.
“Yes, yes, yes. We are the ones who dragged you down.” The younglings in the team touched their nose and apologised. Well, it was true that they weren’t ace operators. There was a rule in their division stating that only a battle team where all the members were ace operators was allowed at the frontline.
“Okay, stop fooling around. We’re not at the frontline but we must still be prepared to fight too.” This relaxed atmosphere was something the leader wanted to create. This was the first time his team members ever came to the battlefield. Moreover, they even snuck into the center of their opponent’s territory. The leader was afraid that his members would be too nervous. Now that all his team members were calm, he started reminding them to be careful.
“Yes, leader.” The team members immediately turned serious and arranged themselves in position.
“The mecha operator at 98R471T, please take note. The mecha operator at 98R471T, please take note. Please leave the passage immediately…” The anxious voice of a JMC suddenly appeared on their channel.Visit website our Listnovel.com
The leader looked at the position they were at and got a shock. “Quick! Move to the side!”
They were at 98R471T. The leader released an order immediately. They had practiced emergency protocols like this before but ultimately, they were still young and inexperienced soldiers. They got in a flurry and two mechas moved in the wrong direction. They were heading towards each other.
Damn it! The leader was astounded. The two mechas were not far from each other so the mecha operators wouldn’t get hurt from the impact of the crash. The mechas had a defensive system to protect them too. But, there was a mecha rushing towards them from the back. If the two mechas collided, they would fall in the path of the incoming mecha.
The leader knew that based on the speed of the mecha, all three of them would be hurt by the collision. The mecha operators might die from the collision too. Was his team members going to die because of such a stupid mistake?
He wanted to save them but he didn’t have the time. The mecha that suddenly appeared wouldn’t have the time to stop too. The mecha operator might not even have time to react.
The leader closed his eyes in despair. He didn’t dare to see the outcome.
“Ah!” He suddenly heard his team members exclaiming.
And two soft pats were heard.
“It’s our general!”
“General!”
“Belief]!”
“So handsome.”
The leader opened his eyes in a hurry. He saw a huge mecha disappearing from his sight. However, he knew what he saw. It was General Ling Xiao’s (Belief).
“Leader.” Two frightened voices were heard.
The voices belonged to the two team members who almost collided with [Belief). They stood on two sides of the passage. None of them were hurt.
“What happened?” The leader rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he was seeing. He suddenly remembered the surveillance camera he had on his mecha chest. He quickly rewinded the video on his mecha and watched what had happened when he closed his eyes.
A light flashed passed and the two mechas that were going to collide changed their direction and flew to the side as though they were pushed by some force.
The force behind the push was just right so they landed in the spot they were supposed to land. They didn’t even move after they landed.
The leader didn’t know how their general did this. He rewinded the video again and slowed it down a hundred times before he finally saw his general’s actions clearly.
