177: Chapter 177: Ambush (Extra for Alliance Leader Hua Yue Ye) (Third Update) 177: Chapter 177: Ambush (Extra for Alliance Leader Hua Yue Ye) (Third Update) Inside Terra Royal Base City.
On the expansive streets, Colonel Asilofa of Bikong Academy piloted the Fourth Generation Mecha·Shadow Slayer, leading a series of Iron Guard Mechas in a disciplined advance towards the Terra Royal Base.
Due to problems during the forced landing, the vice-captain Bai Wei had to pilot a Fourth Generation Mecha to divert a Type IV Chilami.
Nevertheless, they had still lost a considerable number of troops, leaving them with just over a thousand.
Fortunately, upon entering Terra Royal Base City, they had not encountered any particularly fierce monster attacks.
“Lord Asilofa, we are not far from the target area.”
Major Darkent respectfully reported.
“I know.
Everyone, stay alert!”
Asilofa said solemnly, feeling somewhat uneasy for reasons he couldn’t pinpoint, sensing something was amiss but unable to immediately identify the problem.
“Understood!”
Major Darkent immediately responded.
As they advanced, the buildings around them became denser, all of them towering and in ruins.
Strangely, there was scarcely a sign of the Chilami in this area.
Just as they cautiously moved forward.
Beep beep~
Suddenly, an extremely faint sound was picked up by Shadow Slayer and reached Asilofa’s ears.
His beast-like instincts immediately sensed danger.
Unfortunately, before he could issue a warning, the entire street and the surrounding buildings exploded in a series of chain reactions!
“Ah~”
Inside the communication channel, screams suddenly filled the air.
Instinctively, Asilofa activated the mecha’s Energy Barrier to withstand the blast.
Once the explosion had subsided, the area was flattened, nearly half of Bikong Academy’s forces were destroyed.
At that moment, on the edge of Asilofa’s scanning device, several red dots appeared.
Major Darkent cried out in terror.
“Commander!
We have been ambushed by the forces of Imperial Court Academy!”
“Damn it, everyone immediately form a circular array and prepare for battle!”
Bulging veins appeared on Asilofa’s forehead; he had never expected the Imperial Court Academy to change their usual tactics and strike with such ferocity.
“Yes!”
The surviving mecha troops quickly and orderly assembled into a circular array, ready for battle.
At that moment, the forces led by Begfin approached, and he looked at the leading Colonel Asilofa with a mischievous smile.
“Colonel Asilofa, it is an honor to meet you here.
I have admired you for a long time.”
“Begfin, I didn’t expect you to play with ambushes.”
Asilofa looked at Begfin and spoke gravely.
“Sorry, Commander!
The battlefield is merciless.
I apologize for the offense.
I boldly issue a challenge to you, hoping you will accept.”
Begfin said with a smile.
“Good!
I want to see what you are capable of!”
Asilofa, controlling the Shadow Slayer, charged directly at Begfin, who did not hesitate to meet him with his own mecha.
Both men’s seemingly reckless actions were in fact calculated.
Begfin wanted to tie down Asilofa, allowing his men to destroy the Bikong Academy troops with the least time and casualties.
They still needed to face Amonks College afterwards and could not afford heavy losses.
As for Colonel Asilofa, he wasn’t just being reckless; his troops had been ambushed and suffered heavy losses!
If he couldn’t kill the enemy leader to deliver a significant blow to their morale while making room to eliminate the other personnel, they would undoubtedly be defeated.
As the two mechas collided.
Irelia issued the direct order.
“Kill!”
Aqua and others quickly manipulated their mechas, charging toward the mecha troops of Bikong Academy.
At that moment, Darkent and his team also went all out, roaring loudly,
“We’re going in!”
Both forces collided instantly, clashing fiercely!
The strengths and weaknesses became apparent at this clash; although the students of Bikong Academy were good at operating their mechas, the students from Imperial Court Academy were even stronger.
The reason why Su Ming and his team had struggled before was that they were up against higher-grade students, so they had no advantage.
But now the situation had changed.
When the team from Bikong Academy faced their same-grade peers, their technical skills immediately fell short.
Coupled with their smaller numbers, the scene was almost one-sided.
In front of the south gate of Terra Royal Base.
Timi, leading a large troop, had finally made it here after many hardships.
Everyone looked up at the grand gate of the base, deeply shocked.
They saw a huge gate that was one hundred meters tall and made of silver metal, elaborately decorated with intricate patterns.
“Wow, what a huge gate!”
Lan Yue and the other girls exclaimed in amazement.
Su Ming looked at the front gate of the base and was also very shocked; the material of the gate was clearly high-quality.
Zhang Sheng couldn’t help but say over the communications channel,
“How rich must this Terran transit country be, just this gate alone, if we could take it back, would make us rich!”
“Stop daydreaming, if it could be dismantled, it would have been gone by now, wouldn’t have waited for you.”
Lan Yue and the other girls laughed teasingly.
“I’m just saying!”
Zhang Sheng chuckled.
“Okay, enough talk, once Lord Timi opens the gate, we are going in to explore and rescue.
It could be very dangerous inside, everyone check your own status.”
Ai Yin said calmly to everyone.
“Yes!”
Lan Yue and the others quickly responded.
“Su Ming, don’t you find this base a bit eerie?”
Lin Chuyu looked at the gate in front of her, frowning.
“Yeah, indeed, it’s a bit too advanced; normally a transit country wouldn’t have such a good base.”
Su Ming shook his head in response.
“Hmm.”
Lin Chuyu nodded in agreement.
At that moment, Timi waved his hand and two mechas approached the gate, then opened their cockpits.
Subsequently, two students jumped down, carrying professional information equipment, connected to the secret key recognition device beside the gate, and began the decryption!
“Be quick, if we stay here too long, we might attract more Chilamis.”
Darkent urged in a deep voice.
“Don’t worry, we are the best information technology students in the third year.
Besides, this is just a transit country, their technology won’t be that advanced, give us five minutes.”
The two students assured confidently.
“Good!”
Darkent nodded his head and responded gravely.
However, ten minutes had passed quickly, and the two students attempting the decryption were already sweating profusely.
“What’s going on?
Haven’t you unlocked it yet?”
Timi’s patience had reached its limit.
“Sir Timi, this defense system is very advanced; they shouldn’t have such an advanced system.”
Both students were baffled.
They even had the illusion that they weren’t hacking a minor country’s system, but rather infiltrating the central system of the Federation.
