Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 1013 - 786: Are You My Guardian Knight?
Chapter 1013 -786: Are You My Guardian Knight?
On the near-earth orbit of the arc-shaped planet, the welcoming formation composed of sixty light green warships was instantly destroyed.
Almost within the brief 30 seconds of the changes on the Moon Language spaceship, those warships, with engines long preheated, simultaneously surged out orange-red tail flames from behind.
The massive central welcoming ship began to move slowly, while those on the wings…
shot out like arrows off a string, breaking away from the main formation and speeding toward the Moon Language spaceship.
“That scum, Lu Lie.”
Upon seeing the disguised heavy assault ship torn open, Daisendari’s eyes in the command bridge seemed to blaze with fire.
“Indeed he is a treacherous villain!”
Mu Fan was absolutely right, this seemingly harmless formation was indeed a cover for the wings.
In front of him, the screen showed the rapidly closing distance between the two sides.
…
“Assault No. 1 and 2, fire simultaneously.”
“Assault No. 3 and 4, fire simultaneously.”
“Firepower No. 1 and 2, long-range suppression.”
Councilman Lu Lie’s flagship remained in place and did not rush out.
A cold-eyed officer beside him, rigid and proud, was commanding the warship to fire.
The commands were precisely issued at a specific time node, and the weapon operators behind him remained unflustered.
His military uniform was completely different from Councilman Lu’s Babon military uniform, and at the moment, his demeanor even overshadowed that of Councilman Lu.
Under his command, these attacking warships maintained a strict formation without a hint of disorder.
The particle cannons emerging from the warship’s belly spewed dazzling purple lights.
Clusters of high-temperature energy groups swiftly cut through the cosmos, covering the shriveled yellow Moon Language spaceship like dense raindrops.
Advanced commander’s essential skill—predictive shooting.
At this moment, it was fully displayed without reservation.
Rains of light pierced through the starry sky along mysterious trajectories…
Councilman Lu looked at this senior commander arriving from the mighty Gardot Empire, his heart fiery.
He could finally admire up close the military level of that great nation.
This was also his first offer of allegiance; whether he could become the Third Prince’s advisor depended entirely on this battle.
…
Daisendari stood in the command cabin, looking at the rain of light flashing through space, and sneered to himself.
“Serpentine evasion.”
Those robust hands operated the console with surprising agility and deftness.
The spaceship, now turned shriveled yellow, swiftly began to sway and twist in space like a nimble viper.
A rain of light fell twenty kilometers behind the Moon Language spaceship.
The second rain of light fell more than ten kilometers to the right of the spaceship.
A smile appeared on Daisendari’s face; the early advantage that Mu Fan secured for him was indeed crucial, allowing him to maneuver the warship and evade those attacks.
However, unknown to him, the stern and stern middle-aged officer beside Councilman Lu, showed no change in expression as he continuously repeated corrective orders.
“Correct the No. 1 gun position by -3.”
“Correct the No. 2 gun position by 4.”
Thus Daisendari found that the rain of light he tried so hard to evade was getting closer to his ship.
A recent S-shaped change of direction, if not anticipated by 5 seconds, would have seen this spaceship hit by the enemy.
“Boom!”
Standing next to Princess Yue Xi, Mu Fan felt a shudder, a strong vibration that the wooden floor couldn’t filter out rushing to him.
Mu Fan swayed slightly, his legs rooting firmly to the ground, gripping the metal handrail on Yue Xi’s left side with one hand.
“We’re under attack.”
Yue Xi suddenly said, with worry in her eyes.
“Is the power of the attack not strong? Or is the fleet firepower of your country very weak?” Mu Fan speculated and asked.
“No, this is the ship’s solidification effect under the Tree Barrier state; the Moon Language spaceship’s defense can be enhanced by 500% within ten minutes.” Yue Xi shook her head, with deeper concern in her eyes.
“Daisendari’s ship command skills aren’t strong; on the contrary, Councilman Lu is a strong figure in this aspect, fearing the Moon Language spaceship won’t hold out for long.”
Saying this, Yue Xi once again raised her delicate and charming face, her eyes serious.
“Mu Fan, our deal is canceled!! There’s still time, and you’ll truly make me feel guilty if you don’t leave.”
The Princess issued an eviction order for the second time.
Looking at the girl’s sincere and guilty eyes, Mu Fan shook his head.
“I said no.”
“I’m going to see Mr. Daisendari.”
Mu Fan looked forthright, nodding gently at Yue Xi, then directly walked toward the command cabin.
Princess Yue Xi watched Mu Fan’s stubborn and resolute back, suddenly recalling a conversation with her mother when she was still alive.
“How did you choose father then?”
Just twelve years old, the lively Xiao Yue Xi lay on her mother’s lap, asking sweetly.
The incredibly beautiful woman looked up at the vines on the dome of the tree palace, reminiscing about something, but soon playfully tapped Xiao Yue Xi’s nose, revealing the same pointed ears.
“You clever little thing, wasn’t it because your father was the most courageous man I ever met, with a heart as vast as the endless forest ocean, and courage like a rock that never wavered even a bit?”
This was just a small episode during Yue Xi’s growth, many images in her memories had become somewhat blurred.
But the phrase ‘the most courageous man’ etched itself in Yue Xi’s heart.
Her father, the former prince of Babon, was the bravest man in this country!
With a thud, a rain of light once again hit the surface of the spaceship, sparks flickered across the shriveled “bark” and soon extinguished.
This time, the vibration didn’t shake Yue Xi’s gaze.
She gazed at Mu Fan’s profile as he finally stepped into the command cabin, the shadow in her heart quietly overlapping.
For a casual joke she made, to make a promise that he would fulfill no matter what.
“Be humble and courteous to all who harbor no malice.”
“Step up in critical moments, never retreat.”
Humble, honest, brave…
Yue Xi muttered to herself, “Are you the embodiment of the great Wood God’s will?”
“Are you… my Guardian Knight?”
…
When Mu Fan entered the command cabin, another clear tremor passed through from underfoot.
The bloodshot-eyed Daisendari suddenly turned his head, roaring after seeing it was Mu Fan, “Wasn’t it your job to protect the Princess!”
Then quickly turned his head again to operate the warship.
The Moon Language spaceship finally initiated a counterattack.
In Mu Fan’s vision, twelve energy-formed crescent boomerangs spun out from above the ship, instantaneously slicing through the starry sky, with three moon blades precisely landing on the outer shell of the leading assault ship, a tremendous gash with fiery explosions tearing open instantly.
Brilliant sparks burst forth, striking accurately!
Maneuvering again, three moon blades expanded and blasted, uniting and descending in the blink of an eye, hitting the ammunition depot of that assault ship.
The first rebel warship was destroyed.
However, Daisendari’s mood did not improve, as the Moon Language spaceship under his control was enduring increasingly frequent attacks.
Mu Fan could see a time projection nearby, the countdown turning to 6 minutes and 42 seconds, continuously counting down second by second.
This should be the countdown of the Tree Barrier mode.
“This shouldn’t be, shouldn’t be…”
Mu Fan heard the brawny man’s incredulous murmur to himself.
“How does Lu Lie’s fleet command have this level of skill!”
Though the Moonbow Crossbow kept destroying the opponent’s warships, the rain of light seemed to gradually lock the Moon Language spaceship’s retreat route.
“This is impossible.”
