Chapter 387: Target (2/2)

The mech lifted its right arm, slightly bent, with all the fingers curling inwards into a fist except for one that pointed towards a particular direction in the forest. The two crescent blades by the wrist were like crescent moons hanging in the sky.

Ye Luo grinned.

Huang Zheng was dealing with the final stages of the task handover. The higher-ups had instructed for him to leave the place. The Tribe will send someone else to take over matters in the free space zone.

The truth was, he never liked the free space zone, and he did not like his job too. However, with orders that came directly from Tribe Leader, he simply had no choice. Besides, he knew what the significance of this place to the Xi Feng Tribe. Hence, despite feeling more than unhappy with his current job, he still went about his duties diligently.

Now, someone was finally here to take over him.

As a combatant inclined for battle, he was not interested at all in administrative duties. If he was not sent here, perhaps he would have earned the right to pilot a Phoenix class mech by now. He had long yearned to pilot a Phoenix class mech, but the requirements for their pilots were strict. His current abilities were not enough to satisfy those requirements.

However, rumor had it that the colleague who was sent here to replace him had just only been awarded a Phoenix class mech. How wonderful it must be for that person!

As he looked at the people bustling around busily around him, he could not help but feel repulsed. He had always maintained his view regarding the cooperation between the Tribe and the Abductors. While the Abductors were not directly dealing with him, he still felt disgusted by those people.

Now, at last, he could leave this wretched place! The thought was placating for Huang Zheng.

There were not many people here today, so he knew that they were up to something big. Almost all of their men were deployed. He did not care to ask them about it, however. After all, what else could they be up to but trouble?

He looked down at all of them with disdain.

Just then, a few heavily injured men stumbled into the base. Everyone stared at them in surprise, momentarily halting their tasks.

Looking at them, Huang Zheng had an ill premonition.

A huge, functioning base of operations appeared on Moon King’s photon processor. Iris, Moon King’s scanning system, performed splendidly once again. The structure and interior details of the base were all displayed on the photon processor. Even the obscured corridors in the base were captured by Iris.

When Huang Zheng saw a mech approaching, he knew something had gone terribly wrong!

When he saw the mech clearly, his face went pale!

”No one gets away!” Ye Luo’s loud voice from afar made Huang Zheng panic even further.

The jet black Moon King floated silently in midair, its 12-meter bulk radiating the Ye Family’s unique sense of menace of beauty. Everyone was shocked to the core.

Huang Zheng looked around him, and quickly retreated to the base amidst the chaos.

He rushed to his room, bursting through the door, and opened all his drawers. Huang Zheng looked at the information inside them, his eyes shining meaningfully.

He drew in a deep breath and fed all the information in the drawers into the shredder beside his desk.

Crunch crunch crunch! When all the information was reduced to micrometer dust, he finally exhaled in relief.

Now that he was done, he drew up straight, fully alert.

What he had to do next was to fight for his own survival!

He did not know the name of the mech outside, but he could tell that it as one of the Ye Family’s Mandate class mechs. As for how a Phoenix class mech would fare against a mech of equivalent class in the Ye Family, no one knew.

Mandate, Pheonix and Hexalice were not names of specific mechs, but mech classes. They refer to the mech class for each of the Three Aristocratic Families, respectively, that was just below the top class mechs. Mechs of these classes were rare, and their pilots were rigorously selected.

Perhaps he could feel out the true power of these legendary Mandate class mechs!

Huang Zheng’s eyes burned with eagerness for battle.
