Chapter 886: Self-destruct!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It seemed that right as his team member blocked the beam shot with his mecha to save Han Jijyun and dying in the process, Liu Furong suddenly erupted all of his potential and broke through the barrier holding him back for so long, making him instantly enter the imperial level.
The accumulation of his experience for the past 20 years made him instantly reach the mid-stages of imperial level right after he broke through. Even though he was still somewhat weaker than his terrifying opponent, the difference between the two of them was not that huge anymore.
“It’s because you are our hope. Our future. We would rather die here than to let our hopes and future die here!” Liu Furong’s words echoed in Han Jijyun’s mind.
It turns out, he was wrong from the beginning! He was never hated and looked down on by anyone. Those hurtful words were actually just clumsy ways the veterans used to communicate with them.
If they had looked down on him and hated him, they would have just stopped caring about him.
Inside Han Jijyun’s mind, flashbacks of the scenes of veterans speaking to him appeared. Their eyes were filled with happiness. The smiles on their faces were warm, but there were also hints of worry and suspicion in their eyes. There wasn’t any bad intent in their eyes at all. Why couldn’t he see these signs clearly before? Was it because his mind was filled with those negative thoughts so he was blinded by that? Han Jijyun regretted everything and couldn’t help but hate himself. He couldn’t even control his eyes as it teared up uncontrollably...
Song Yiqing, still stiff from before, just stared blankly as a mecha operators from 250 Ace Mecha Clan didn’t hesitate to sacrifice his own life to save his comrades. A feeling of regret and embarrassment towards himself suddenly bloomed in his mind.
“Bam!” Song Yiqing slapped himself on the face and the pain from it woke him up from his stupor. He moved his mecha and instantly flew towards Han Jijyun. He then dragged Han Jijyun, who was still mulling over himself, into his team.
“Leader Han, our mission is to retreat. Retreat! Focus god damn it!” Song Yiqing shouted angrily at Han Jijyun. Even though he was saying those words to Han Jijyun, those words were also for himself as well.
“I know!” Han Jijyun’s hoarse voice was heard in the commlink channel of the mecha.
Han Jijyun raised his head and looked at the imperial mecha who had just killed the mecha operator of team 02. At that moment, his mind was filled with thoughts of taking revenge, but he was held back by an officer from Liu Furong’s team so he had no way of making a move on them.
Han Jijyun will remember this. He will remember how his life had been saved at the cost of someone else’s life. Han Jijyun made a promise to himself that he would no longer let his comrade sacrifice his lives to protect him.
Han Jijyun closed his eyes. When he opened them again, it was calm as a body of water. He coldly said to Song Yiqing, “Regiment Commander Song, take your clan and immediately retreat back to Base 013 as fast as possible. Don’t linger here and waste anymore time.”
Song Yiqing was somewhat stunned by the sudden change in Han Jijyun.
“Then, what about the situation here...” Team 02 and 08 were not enough to hold back this battle team full of imperial operators.
“Regiment Commander Song, I don’t want to say it a third time. Your mission is to take the supplies to Base 013 as fast as possible. It isn’t your role to provide cover fire here,” said Han Jijyun coldly.
“Understood!” Song Yiqing looked at Han Jijyun with surprise, and then immediately ordered his clan’s battle clan’s team leaders to take the supplies and quickly retreat.
Han Jijyun, who was just irresolute, hesitant and warm-hearted, now actually became so heartless. There was no doubt that Han Jijyun was ready to abandon team 02 and 08 for the supplies.
Not long after, Song Yiqing’s clan went forward with the order and quickly retreated out of this battlefield. Seeing the supplies going further and further away, Team Luo Qi became frustrated.
“Regiment Commander, we still can’t get past the interference in this area so we still can’t contact the base. What should we do now?” A team member from Team Luo Qi asked Luo Qi in a frustrated tone.
Although Luo Qi was fighting with Liu Furong, he could still see the supplies being carried away from them. He decisively ordered, “Mai Jia, take formation and block the transport team from leaving! Everyone else cover them. Don’t let Mai Jia and his team be held back by those bastards.”
“Yes, regiment commander!” Ma Jia’s team wanted to split off to attack the transport team, but Liu Furong wouldn’t let them leave that easily. He ordered three mecha operators from his team to attack the mecha operators who were trying to chase after the transport team
The order they received was that even if they were to die, they must intercept them.
If the transport team was to have something happen to them, it would mean the end of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the base. Liu Furong and the members from team 02 and 08 knew what was more important. This was also why their regiment commander stayed back at Base Ailan to lure Hailiya’s first line forces even if it meant a very high possibility of dying there.
“Self-destruct!” All the mecha operators from 250 knew this was the only way for them to hold these imperial operators back. If they wanted to take down imperial operators that outnumbered them, they must use this method.
“Damn, small fries!” Seeing ace operators coming towards them without any care for their lives, Mai Jia, who was annoyed from being held back, shouted angrily, “Use your strongest technique and destroy these small fries.”
“Understood!” The two mechas beside him immediately pounced towards their opponents. Their engines began to roar and the large sword in their hands began to rotate quickly.
“Watch out!” Liu Furong heard the odd noise from their opponent’s engines. He then glanced at the way their large swords were rotating and instantly shouted.
Back then when he fought with Hailiya’s forces on the battlefield, he had once seen mecha operators using this terrifying technique. Anything that got sucked in by the rotation of the large sword or just slightly touched it, would be sliced into small bits even if it was met with the toughest material. He had once heard from his previous regiment commander that this was one of Hailiya’s top-level techniques, Helix Whirl! Countless mecha operators from the Federation had perished just from this technique alone.
However, even though Liu Furong told his team members to be careful, the three members who were ready to die in order to intercept the enemy, didn’t retreat even though they knew of the dangers. They all pounced towards their opponents without a hint of regret.
“Long live the Huaxia Federation!”
“Long live 250 Ace Mecha Clan!”
“I love 250!”
In the commlink channel, they all screamed out their last words...
“Bang! Bang! Bang!” Immediately after, three loud explosions were heard in the sky. As everyone turned their head towards the explosion, they saw three mushroom clouds which had odd hints of red in them.
“Mai Jia!”
“Bo Qi!”
“Luo Ya!”
Luo Qi’s team saw this and was stunned. They all called out to their comrades and hoped they would answer them.
After some time, one mecha flew out from one of the mushroom clouds. The mecha’s limbs were broken off and countless wires were protruding out, even the body of the mecha was severely burnt.
