Chapter 519: Clash!

~9 min read 1,679 words

In just three minutes, everything was ready; the fleet took off and arrived near the giant Star Gate within the Solar System.

After locating the position of the Styx Galaxy using the Angel's star map.

A total of nine massive fleets plunged into the Star Gate, heading straight for the Styx.

And behind these nine massive fleets, ten Giant Mecha were also following.

The overall length of these mecha had already reached 200 meters.

Trailing blue exhaust flames, they plunged into the Star Gate along with the nine massive fleets.

At this moment, Ye Cang, who was on the flagship, was no longer as calm as he usually was.

Instead, he paced back and forth, glancing at the scenery outside from time to time.

He kept muttering to himself.

"Slow, slow, too slow!"

Suddenly, Ye Cang stopped in his tracks.

"Bring me a Tiangong!"

As Ye Cang's voice fell, a Tiangong came before him.

"Chief Engineer."

Ye Cang did not waste words and said directly: "The current flight speed of the warships is too slow, only 1/10th of the speed of light. If we reach the Styx at this speed..."

"I'm afraid it will take a whole day, and by that time, I fear the members of the Tianjian Squad will all be dead."

"You must immediately increase the speed of the ships to half light-speed or sub-light speed."

As soon as these words were spoken, a look of difficulty appeared on the Tiangong's face.

"This... I'm afraid that won't work, Chief Engineer."

Hearing this, Ye Cang's brow furrowed even tighter.

The Tiangong hurriedly explained.

"Regarding the nature of the Wormhole, I believe you also understand that currently, traveling through the Wormhole at 1/10th the speed of light is the safest speed."

"Once this speed is exceeded, it will damage the stability of the Wormhole. If an accident really occurs in the Wormhole..."

"What's more, our current technology can only reach 3/10ths of the speed of light."

To this, Ye Cang did not believe a single word.

No, it should be said that he only believed the part about damaging the Wormhole's stability.

As for the current technology being able to reach 3/10ths of the speed of light, he did not believe a single word of it.

These Tiangong, they all keep a trick or two up their sleeves for everything!

If things went wrong, it was even possible they were keeping two or three tricks up their sleeves.

"Don't worry about damaging the Wormhole's stability; I will have the Angels help stabilize the Wormhole. All you need to do is get the speed up for me! At the very least, it must be half light-speed!"

"This is a military order!"

"Do you understand!"

Once the words "military order" were spoken, the Tiangong immediately saluted.

"Yes! Chief Engineer! Guarantee to complete the mission!"

Following the issuance of the order, the Angels immediately stepped forward to begin maintaining the internal balance of the Wormhole.

The Tiangong, meanwhile, began a mysterious ritual.

They held an Incense Burner and placed it at the intersection of the warship's energy and propulsion systems.

Then, with pious expressions, they lit three sticks of incense.

Afterward, they began to dance an inexplicable dance.

Watching this dance, Ye Cang couldn't help but close his eyes; it was just too awkward, wasn't it?

They weren't Indians, and they didn't eat curry.

Yet they started dancing at the slightest provocation.

However, Ye Cang did not interrupt them and just watched quietly.

After this awkward dance lasted for 5 minutes, it finally ended.

At this moment, something completely unexpected happened.

After this bout of awkward dancing by the Tiangong.

The speed of the warships actually increased significantly; in the blink of an eye, the speed rose to half light-speed, and it was still increasing.

It finally settled at 7/10ths of the speed of light.

When the warships' speed increased to 7/10ths of the speed of light, the Wormhole began to vibrate, looking as if it were about to collapse, but the Angels stabilized the Wormhole.

The nine major fleets plus the 10 Giant Mecha were all moving forward at maximum speed.

Calculating based on the current situation.

In at most one hour, the warships would be able to reach the Styx Galaxy.

However, Ye Cang did not quite understand this situation.

"Uh, what was that just now?" Ye Cang looked at the Tiangong in confusion.

The Tiangong looked at the incense still burning in the Incense Burner and explained: "A ritual, a ritual passed down for a hundred years."

"I am pleasing the soul of this warship, and the other Tiangong are doing the same."

"This is the method we have concluded that allows the warships to increase their speed the most."

The Tiangong's words reminded Ye Cang of things from over a hundred years ago.

It is said that in Taiwan, things like washing machines, televisions, and factory machines would all have their own snacks.

Also, when certain scientific research personnel wanted to obtain ideal data...

Hmm... as expected, ancient Huaxia wisdom!

33 minutes later.

The fleet group successfully arrived at the Styx Galaxy.

The moment he left the Wormhole, Ye Cang saw a scene that made him incomparably furious.

He saw that of the 15 Super Soldiers of the Tianjian Squad, only 5 soldiers remained fighting there.

Among them, four soldiers had flames burning on their bodies, and they were confronting a giant beast that was at least a hundred meters tall.

At this moment, that hundred-meter-tall giant beast had already lost nearly half of its head, as well as two of its articulated limbs, and its body was covered in wounds and traces of burning flames.

As for the other soldier, he was guarding the remaining 10 soldiers, and was non-stop slaughtering Void creatures.

The situation of the 10 soldiers being guarded was extremely severe.

Of those 10, some had lost an arm, some had lost a leg, and the most severely injured soldier was even missing half of his body.

The Power Armor on their bodies was already damaged, yet even so, they still brandished the Power Halberds in their hands, slaughtering those that had slipped through the net.

Ye Cang looked around carefully, and only then did he realize.

That Super Soldier who had lost half his body was actually Shen.

"Giant God Soldier!" Ye Cang slammed the table.

"Operate at maximum power for me, and tear that bug in front to pieces!"

"All Super Soldiers above the Second Generation within the fleet, conduct space combat for me immediately!"

"At the same time, the fleet is to pour out all its firepower for me!"

Following Ye Cang's order.

10 mecha began to operate formally at this moment; their chests emitted dazzling white light, and they drew giant horse-chopping saber-style Power Weapons from their backs, charging straight toward the distant Void Giant Beast.

In the blink of an eye, a giant horse-chopping saber slashed directly onto the body of the Void Giant Beast.

With a *splat*.

One of the Void Giant Beast's articulated limbs was directly severed.

The remaining nine horse-chopping sabers followed closely behind, hacking wildly at the Void Giant Beast.

The immense pain caused the Void Giant Beast to let out one roar after another.

In just a few seconds, the Void Giant Beast took dozens of slashes.

It was nearly missing the remaining half of its skull as well.

Facing the 10 Giant Mecha, the Void Giant Beast let out an angry roar, waving its two giant front claws as it prepared to counterattack.

However...

Its counterattack, in front of these 10 Giant Mecha, was like that of an adult against a child.

The moment it raised its claws, a Giant Mecha immediately stepped forward and pinned down its two claws.

The remaining Giant Mecha followed closely behind, pinning down other parts of its body, making it completely unable to move.

The remaining few Giant Mecha then brandished their giant horse-chopping sabers and hacked wildly, forcefully chopping this Void Giant Beast into a pulp and sending it back to the Void.

Afterward, these mecha blocked the front of the giant Universe Gate, obstructing the Void creatures pouring out from the Universe Gate.

Those Super Soldiers conducting space combat all chose close-quarters combat without exception, their Power Swords waving incessantly, slaughtering the tide composed of endless Void creatures.

The nine fleets also poured out all their firepower, and for a time, the battle was evenly matched.

And Ye Cang took this opportunity to rescue the 15 members of the Tianjian Squad.

"Shen? Shen?"

Ye Cang called out softly a few times and discovered that Shen had lost consciousness, so he immediately used Quantum Control to restore his body.

Immediately afterward, he reshaped the limbs for the other Super Soldiers who had lost them, and finally handed them all over to the medical personnel.

Only those 5 uninjured Super Soldiers remained here to report the entire process of the mission to Ye Cang.

When Ye Cang learned of the intelligence on the Void, as well as the Heart Flame they had awakened, he said nothing.

He only looked at the Universe Gate before him with a solemn gaze.

He knew that the trouble ahead would be huge.

A few hours later.

All Void creatures had been eliminated and sent back into the Void.

Only a giant purple Universe Gate remained lingering there.

Although the Universe Gate had shrunk significantly due to the appearance of the giant beast, its current volume still could not be underestimated.

Just at this moment.

Shen regained consciousness.

He did not speak, but slowly saluted Ye Cang, then left the warship and arrived before the Universe Gate.

A touch of golden flame ignited on his finger.

Pressing the golden flame gently onto the Universe Gate, he then turned and left.

"Chief Engineer, the Heart Flame will prevent the expansion of the Universe Gate, but it will not last for very long..."

After saying this, he fell unconscious again.

Ye Cang waved his hand, and all warships and mecha returned to Earth.
