Chapter 112: Another Episode
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A large group of chs and people ard with heat ray guns were moving towards them in a mighty formation. Pedestrians avoided the mob, scattering into hiding. From their practiced motions, it was obvious that this was not the first ti sothing similar had happened.
Ye Chong imdiately deployed Yu Di. The mob did not seem friendly, and Ye Chong was no fool, guessing that they were probably here for him. "Must be friends of the gang earlier today," thought Ye Chong!
He swiftly slipped into Yu Di’s cabin and activated the scanning system. A swarm of red dots appeared before him. "They are a large group," Ye Chong muttered to himself.
Shang’s toned turned dismissive. "Ye, you’re capable enough to handle them yourself. The threat level is not high enough, I can’t help you. Ah, such a pity! It’s been so long since my last battle!" A touch of regret was apparent in his words.
"Alone it is!" Unless the situation demanded it, Shang would not interfere. While he did not fully understand the reason, Ye Chong also did not intend to rely on them too much! Being too dependent on them would rapidly reduce his combat skills! His own strength was more reliable than soone else’s!
In such a complicated neighbourhood, passivity and retaliation after the enemies made their move would only spell death! If battle was inevitable, it was best to make the first move.
Qu Fa sat in his beloved ch, watching his lackeys move quickly and orderly towards the target. Once they circled him, the opponent will not escape their grasp. To face against these three n, he had deployed even his precious small team of chs. These ch pilots were all with at least interdiate piloting skills. Apart from that, the 3 team leaders were all reputed as expert level pilots.
Qu Fa was cautious in nature. He had always behaved warily, and had never used his small team of chs, its presence rely in anticipation of grave situations!
While many mbers of the Orbit Syndicate were skillful due to strict mbership qualifications, competition within the Syndicate was still rife. Who was soone as insignificant as him to claim the title of an expert ch pilot? The 3 team leaders under him were hired after much relentless persuasion. He was not particularly inclined to recall those days!
In all honesty, this open conflict in the current sensitive period was not sothing the careful Qu Fa was willing to initiate.
However, more than a dozen of his mbers were murdered in the streets today. If he did not make a show of power, then he would quickly lose his place in the syndicate, and there would probably no more lackeys with him by tomorrow! On Haleyson, survival was difficult without so support. A weak organisation would also be quick to disperse!
Suddenly, a loud *BANG* was heard. Brick debris sprayed out in all directions. The small house was imdiately swallowed by a swirl of yellow dust.
Qu Fa was startled. The circling formation was not yet ford, and yet the opponent had noticed them. They seed to be quite wary. It looked like the battle today would inevitably be a hard one! Fortunately, there were only three of his enemies. No matter how capable they may be, they will surely falter from being outnumbered! For now, Qu Fa could only hope that the other organisations would not interfere with the battle, or he would be in real trouble!
A black ch erged from the dusty clouds, unperturbed by the situation! "It looks like they’re underestimating us," Qu Fa thought to himself, laughing despite his rage. In fact, he was wrong about Ye Chong, for Ye Chong was not prone to underestimating his opponents, no matter how weak they seem to be. As for his current entrance, it was most likely a suggestion from Shang to create a psychological pressure on the enemies.
Before Qu Fa could give the orders, the four-limbed black ch moved.
After so many days, Ye Chong had grown quite familiar with Yu Di. In Fred’s eyes, Yu Di was not exactly a ch of the highest grade. The 4 limbs may look many, but for the average pilot, they were excessive. After all, how many pilots could move their hands as fast as Ye Chong? However, it was as though the ch was designed specially for him. His impressive hand speed had always been restricted by the chs he used. With Yu Di, Ye Chong’s hard work in improving his hand speed was finally paying off!
With ti and effort, what could Ye Chong and Yu Di’s combination be capable of?
Ye Chong had no intention of questioning his enemies. Yu Di moved like a huge octopus, lunging ahead. Before anyone could react, he was already at the edge of the mob’s formation.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Di had already counted the enemies, a total of 37 chs. They were all above average, but Ye Chong had grown used to chs of this level, no longer surprised by them. The only chs that could interest him now were the Black Cove chs, MPA’s internal chs and, perhaps, the few chs by Fred the Great that he left behind.
Shang was howling excitedly in Ye Chong’s mind.
Yu Di did not make any feints, but rushed straight towards the chs.
Ye Chong’s first opponent was a Skyway-III model. It looked like a wolf, and was an expert level ch. Its 4 chanical limbs were obviously modified, looking nacing! Yu Di’s lunge did not faze the ch, as its concealed gun chambers opened up, and the firepower was aid towards Ye Chong with full force.
However, with his experience with the MPA’s nanowave guns, this level of shooting attacks were like fireworks to Ye Chong, pretty and without substance. *SHING*! His shield, ready before his chest, expanded to et the assault. The beast’s eyes instantly lit up like fire.
Skyway’s pilot did not expect his attack to be blocked at such a short distance. Before he could escape, he suddenly heard a buzzing sound from his ch. In his confusion, a violent explosion engulfed him ruthlessly like a beastly flood!
Ye Chong moved fast. He shielded himself with the shield and the UF magnetic sword. The sword was like a lurking viper, ready to deliver the fatal blow. Ye Chong was reluctant to use his grenade launcher, since the grenades were limited. If he finished the ammunition, the grenade launcher will be useless! Without Fred the Great with him, there was nowhere for him to replenish the curious grenades. Each one of them was unique! Ye Chong did not feel like wasting these precious resources in the current battle.
The thirty over chs were mostly long range chs.
It was definitely a nightmare for the long range chs to be so close to a close range ch! Besides, no matter if they were long or close range chs, being close to Ye Chong’s Yu Di was the mother of all nightmares!
Yu Di was like a at grinder. Everywhere it went, chs scattered in pieces, their parts flying off. The sound of chs exploding did not subside.
Qu Fa’s face twisted with pain and suffering. All his hard-earned fruits of labour were gone!
Qu Fa’s death was unremarkable, garnering little attention, since he only represented a small gang from Hoth. However, the battle had won Ye Chong an enormous reputation! No matter how small the organisation was, it was still an amazing feat to defeat one single-handed!
Ye Chong was ruthless, and no one was expected to survive from his attacks. Besides, he showed impressive battle skills, and had an odd but frightening ch!
Ye Chong’s rciless thods were the cause of hesitation for many linchpins. He would be an ideal murdering tool for them if appropriately handled. However, with any misstep, he could be trouble, with a blade to their necks!
Many of these gangs had extended their olive branches to Ye Chong, but Ye Chong did not respond to any of them! He did not wish to live a restricted life, as a weapon in another person’s hands. Had he thought otherwise, which of these organizations could be more powerful than Black Cove?
Ye Chong was finally left alone. Understanding that Ye Chong did not plan to join any of the gangs, most of them were relieved, since this was an acceptable outco for them!
Ye Chong walked leisurely on the streets. He was planning to familiarize himself with the local environnt, but was interrupted last ti. Now, he could finally take on the task!
The people on the streets all avoided Ye Chong. His infamous "killer" reputation in Hoth was unchallenged. He was described as being cold and rciless, a bloodthirsty murderer. Overnight, Ye Chong was smothered with the image of a butcher! Ye Chong did not mind it. Given the situation, it was more useful to be intimidating to others!
Without any interference, Ye Chong walked casually down the streets by himself, Shang in his alternate dinsion. On the streets, a single-ard ch trailing him would be a sore sight. Besides, Ye Chong felt that Shang would better serve as a secret weapon. He was also feeling physically well recently, and this was just a stroll, as there should be no complications! Such were Ye Chong’s thoughts.
Ye Chong did not recognise the trees by the streets, and naturally did not know their nas, but that did not stop him from taking a liking towards the flora!
Ye Chong examined the buildings that lined the streets on both sides as he strolled aimlessly around the neighborhood.
"Huh!" Ye Chong could not help but exclaim, seeing the strange architecture before him. A light green house, tinged with nature’s graces. The design kindled calm and peace within Ye Chong.
A faint and mysterious fragrance made Ye Chong’s nose a little itchy, and he suddenly found himself stepping onto the short wooden steps before the house.
Just as his right leg landed onto the steps, Ye Chong suddenly felt his mind shuttered, and was imdiately alerted. He tried to reach out for Shang, but found his senses completely isolated from the ch! "This is not happening." Ye Chong felt helpless!
Soon, Ye Chong did not even have ti to dwell on his helplessness, as a mind-piercing pain engulfed him like a tsunami wave!
