Chapter 165: Bluff (2/2)

The remaining four Dawn mechs all looked to Overwing, but Overwing did not move, so they could only watch as the enemy escaped! However, they could not help but feel that if they were to pursue, the enemy would be vanquished! Nonetheless, the Sanctuary’s trump card had absolute authority over the mech pilots - there must be a reason for his decision! That was the conclusion of the four mech pilots.

Sir Mu Fei’s mech waved, a signal to return to their ship.

They paused. Why would Sir not used the comms? However, the signal was clear, and while they were confused, the four mech pilots still flew to Ye Chong’s side. They could never know that while the mech was Overwing, the pilot inside was not their respected Sir Mu Fei, but the seemingly weak young boy! It would be a crazy fact for them to take in!

The five mechs flew to the nearby ship, and as the hatch opened up, the five mechs drifted in one by one through the hatch!

The four Dawn mechs were heavily damaged, and as they landed, the pilots immediately slipped out. The battle was intense, and they were all strung up, but now they could finally relax. While they were all highly trained, all of them now wore a tired expression! Now out of their mechs, they waited for Sir Mu Fei to come out too.

After a while, Sir still did not come out.

The four men looked towards the Overwing in confusion. As they marveled at the elegance and might of Overwing, one question still bothered them - what’s with Sir?

They were still confused when four laser beams abruptly shot towards them.

On each of their foreheads was a thumb-sized hole of blood. Before the four pairs of confused and now dead eyes, Ye Chong leaped out of the pilot cabin. He stepped onto the deck as the four men fell backwards lifelessly!

At such a short distance, with so much time, even if Ye Chong’s shooting skills were deplorable, and Overwing’s auto shooting was far from the MPA’s level, those four shots still managed to accurately hit their targets. Ye Chong even imagined that it could be due to his improving shooting skills!

The final group of people who could be a threat to him was finally dealt with.

Ye Chong exhaled deeply in relief!

The most successful part of the plan was that no one onboard the ship had time to report to the Sanctuary of what had transpired. This meant that the Sanctuary knew nothing of what happened on Glinton! This was very important to Ye Chong, since if he next meet with the Sanctuary’s people, his skills as a skeleton carver could still be useful! However, he must first come up with a reasonable story of what happened!

While he believed it was unlikely for him to have anything to do with the Sanctuary in future, it was still best to prepare for it!

Glinton flew onwards in space.

In the large space of the captain’s quarters was Ye Chong, alone. Of course, Shang also came out for a breather. The room was large enough for him! Ye Chong had cleared out the bodies, and after days of internal cleansing, the scent of blood was no longer present.

The entire Glinton had only Ye Chong and Shang as its passengers. Shang controlled the entire starship, since if the ship was given to Ye Chong, he would not be able to fly it!

”What’s our next step?” Ye Chong asked.

”Look for Lu Caite’s teacher, cure your illness. However, we must find a planet quickly to access the virtual world, and find out where the teacher is! According to Lu Caite, his teacher seemed capable enough,” Shang replied.

Ye Chong disagreed. ”No, we’re too close to the Orbits here, it’s going to be easy for the Sanctuary to sense us, then we’ll be in trouble!”

”Hmm, that’s true, it’s really troublesome! Looks like it’s better if we go as far as possible away from this place!” Shang agreed.

”That’s right! But Shang, do you have a star chart?” Ye Chong asked.

”I do, quite a few of them for beyond the Orbits!” Shang spoke proudly.

”Then we can do a warp jump?” Ye Chong asked with faint anticipation.

”Yes!” Shang replied briskly!
