Extra 1.5 – “Don’t be Afraid.”
☆☆、Chapter 30 – The Secret Love Story of the Fran Empire (Part 5)☆☆、
The good news Bernard brought was that House’s mecha troops seemed to be evacuating in an orderly manner in a certain direction.
The bad news is that the red-haired boy who the sergeant swore that he “would not be lost” had been forcibly taken away by his subordinate, a tall man over two meters tall, and their whereabouts are unknown.
No one expected that a man who had just been knocked down by an electric shock gun could recover his fighting ability in such a short time.
Glenn received the surveillance footage from Bernard.
A quarter of the two hundred mecha soldiers dispatched by the House Empire were lost in the invasion. Most of them had evacuated at this time, and only one small team was left to fight with the logistics soldier driving the silver-white mech.
From the real-time footage, the other party used a magnetic rope, and it seemed that they wanted to pack up the young logistics soldier and the mecha and take them away. However, the boy named Joe was smart enough and had not fallen into the hands of the other party yet.
He doesn’t appear to be in danger of death.
Glenn left behind a small team from Planet Aquamarine, and the rest of the assembled personnel were asked to report back to Bernard. They needed to thoroughly check the entire starship in the coming time to ensure that no one had slipped through the net, and to prepare for the starship’s return.
Yes, this starship will be returning immediately.
Just as the red-haired boy said, the small aircraft that Ms. Lux was riding in had already set off the night before, and by this time it had already arrived thirty miles away, where it met the guard team sent by the Empire’s First Army.
This seemingly strict escort operation was nothing more than a line of defense jointly set up by the Shizukumi Star Base and the Central Military Headquarters that worked.
But the black-haired sergeant had a vague feeling that they might have let a very big fish escape.
Thinking of this, Glenn’s eyelids twitched inexplicably again. He shook his head, activated the mecha, and took the lead in leading everyone to leave the starship and head towards the direction where Joshua was surrounded.
”Let’s go. The target location is the front left of the starship. Please protect yourself before ensuring the safety of your comrades.”
”Yes!”
•=|=•
The other side of the battlefield.
The situation Joshua faced at this time was rather complicated.
For example,
Holographic games have been booming in the Empire in recent years. In the team-mode competitive games, there is a not-so-popular profession called Blood Cow.
Joshua was now like a blood cow.
Even if several of you beat me up, I will still fight back.
Even if you are so angry that you vomit blood, I just won’t bleed.
But the fourteen-year-old Crown Prince sadly discovered that he might be a little bit mecha-sick.
Joshua tried hard to keep the mecha balanced, but failed. The silver-white steel giant was once again blasted into the air by the particle cannon.
The young crown prince closed his eyes resignedly, trying to adjust to the sudden feeling of dizziness.
——He miscalculated this time.
An ordinary advanced mecha suddenly crashed into the silver-white mecha at high speed. Before Joshua opened his eyes, he was pressed directly onto the operating chair by the huge impact force, and his chest felt a dull pain.
He coughed heavily several times and tried his best to operate the mecha to avoid the opponent’s second collision. The jet device under the silver-white mecha suddenly started, but was grabbed by the alloy arm of the advanced mecha and thrown straight towards the starship.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt like he could almost vomit blood.
Joshua resigned himself to waiting for the second impact, but felt a subtle buffer a few seconds after losing weight.
——The black advanced mecha swooped down, and with a strange hugging posture, it neutralized the force of the silver-white mecha’s fall, and slowly landed in an area closer to the starship.
It’s Glenn.
The well-trained mecha team, who had been working together on the Vast Ocean Star for a year, immediately surrounded the two mechas, one black and one white, in a classic “Titanic-style” pose. Joshua didn’t react for a moment, and his eyes widened in surprise.
Unless you are in the situation yourself, it is difficult to understand the feeling of being pulled into a desperate situation.
This was the first time in Joshua’s life that he tasted this.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recalled his own comments on someone as a “reckless man”, “impulsive”, “lacking strategy”, and a “greenhorn”. His eyes flickered slightly, and he wiped his face silently, regaining control of the mecha.
”Hello, the mecha intelligent computer codenamed PLH-330 is sending you a video call request.”
”Connect.”
Glenn’s handsome face with three-dimensional features appeared above the projector on the side of the operating screen.
”Soldier,” Glenn said, “follow me.”
Joshua calmed himself down and operated the mecha to hover behind Glenn’s black mecha – no matter how much he didn’t want to admit it, he was still far from being a qualified fighter.
But are advanced mechas really so resistant to attacks?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was extremely amazed as he drove a real aircraft for the first time.
The advanced mechas attacking Joshua did not retreat or give way, and rushed straight into the encirclement, breaking up a corner of Fran’s team with a swift movement. House’s mecha team followed in an instant. The particle guns on the left and right sides of the leading mecha gathered beams of light, which suddenly flashes and blasted towards the black and white mechas driven by Glenn and Joshua.
Glenn’s black mecha narrowly avoided Joshua’s silver-white mecha, and his ears felt hot – it was still a bad premonition.
”Soldier,” he calmly moved the light blade and split the left arm of the Sniper Mech, “If you are in danger, activate the automatic ejection device.”
Joshua gritted his teeth and dodged the concentrated attack with difficulty. After a long while, he said, “Okay.”
The reinforcements were less than 5 stars away from the starship coordinates, but House’s mecha team still showed no signs of retreating. The operation of two standard high-level mechas was particularly eye-catching, almost one against ten.
Glenn sped up to dodge the incoming laser sword, and suddenly received an unfamiliar communication request.
”Connect,” he said.
The right projector screen is split into two.
On the left is Joshua biting his lower lip, and on the right is the red-haired boy’s face soaked in sweat.
”Sergeant Glenn.” The red-haired boy said slowly.
”Congratulations on your escape.” Glenn responded coldly, and the muzzle of the particle cannon flashed, attacking the chest of the mecha in front of him.
The young man narrowed his golden eyes slightly, and a drop of hot sweat slid down his cheek, and was thrown to the ground because of the movement of the mecha.
”Let me take it.”
Glenn smiled and said, “Give me a reason.”
The red-haired boy did not explain what “it” was, but Glenn and Joshua, who was listening, understood what he meant – there seemed to be some important secret hidden in this silver-white mecha.
“There’s no reason.” The two high-level mechas pass each other and collide heavily. The boy’s tone was still as flat as a machine. “I can destroy it too.”
”…No, you won’t.” Glenn slapped the particle cannon charger again.
He guessed that the performance of this mecha might be far superior to that of Fulan, and the difference in level between the two was probably the essential difference between qualitative change and quantitative change.
Maybe it was…the super mecha that House had repeatedly leaked.
Then no one could believe that the other party will destroy all that they are determined to obtain at this time.
What’s more, the other party belonged to the House Empire and was under the jurisdiction of the tyrannical emperor of the House. No one could bear the consequences of acting on their own.
”Okay.” The red-haired boy nodded gently, “I understand.”
He was the first to cut off the communication.
A magnetic rope attacked from behind, and was concentrated on the rope by Glenn’s particle cannon. However, the residual impact force pushed the anchor-like connecting end crooked and hooked it diagonally at the connection between the left shoulder and left arm of the silver-white mecha.
Glenn wanted to grab the right leg of the silver mech to prevent it from dragging the target into the enemy camp, but the alarm of the black mech’s artificial intelligence interrupted his action.
”Several heavy weapons are activated and you are within range. Please dodge, please dodge.”
Glenn’s pupils constricted and he cursed in his heart.
All the mechas of House’s team around him suddenly adjusted their positions, and the muzzles of more than 20 particle cannons were pointed in the same direction.
He looked up at the position of the silver-white mecha, which was moving at full speed above the starship – this was a wise decision – his speed was astonishingly fast.
Glenn also increased his speed to the maximum, issued a few instructions to his teammates, and chased after them closely.
”Soldier, your mech is about to be fired upon, prepare to eject,” the sergeant said in a deep voice.
“…Okay.” Joshua suppressed the trembling of his arms. His strength was rapidly draining away, and sweat was almost soaking through the back of his training uniform.
——God of the Universe, this damn physical strength!
Then he heard Glenn’s deep voice: “Don’t be afraid.”
The young sergeant seemed to think that he was nervous, and took a moment to turn to the recording camera and smiled.
Those black eyes were full of calmness, and the hands that controlled the mecha were always steady.
He heard him say again: “Right now…Run!”
Joshua pressed the manual eject button absentmindedly, and the cockpit instantly closed and deformed, ejecting a small temporary aircraft.
Its cruising speed was not as fast as that of the mecha. Joshua leaned forward due to inertia, and then fell back into his seat at high speed after recovering instantly.
Even though his mental energy was depleted and his physical condition was not good, even though he was so tired that he was feeling sleepy.
Joshua kept his eyes open.
Large areas of transparent material allow him to easily see everything that is happening:
——The particle cannon gathered energy at the same time, and dozens of light beams merged together, which was very spectacular.
——Under the order, Fran’s mecha team evacuated to the vicinity of the starship. Their firepower never stopped, providing cover for the black mechas and small aircraft.
——The black steel giant hovered in front of the aircraft, holding up the fragile aircraft and moving it out of the attack range at the highest speed.
Then there was a flash of light, and the entire universe seemed to be swallowed by the light. Joshua was so shocked that he almost shed tears.
When he opened his eyes again, the silver-white mecha that had been thrown off had turned into tiny fragments in the universe under the pressure of energy that was dozens of times that of an ordinary attack.
He couldn’t see Glenn Sasir.
