    Fwoosh! Fwoosh! Fwoosh!


    Sang Tie''s Collision mech burst through several unknown lifeforms like an arrow through bullseyes. However it was more like ripping through the bullseyes, in a more precise sense. The strong bodies of the unknown lifeforms exploded into countless pieces from the strong impact.


    The Collision mech''s frontal defense was also its strongest, that was why attacking with their collision spears in fronts was their preferred method of attack, and the safest one.


    They rained down like heavy downpour!


    Beside Sang Pu, numerous Collision mechs flew past him towards the unknown lifeforms. The mechs hit fast and hard. Every collision ended with a shower of blood, apanied by separated body parts.


    One of the creatures tried to turn back and escape, but it never stood a chance! A brief sensation of pain came from its waist, with a shocking amount of power that was passed into the creature, and it spun away uncontrobly. Just then, it noticed a familiar looking lower body flying away from itself. A momentter, an excruciating pain shot up from below, and it almost cked out. As it looked down its body, it found an empty space below its waist, where blood was gushing out violently.


    Its eyes bulged out as it stared at its missing lower body in disbelief. Its face convulsed from the pain, and before it could react any further, it felt another sharp pain, and then it lost consciousness.


    A Collision mech''s skeleton fins had easily sliced its brain in half. It happened so fast that the convulsed expression on the face remained on its face, where the slightly bulging eyes were filled with horror and disbelief.


    Without air in outer space, sound could not travel. However, the continuous wave of collisions carried on where the mechs where. Every time a mech crashed into flesh, it sent a jolt of shock into the hearts of the spectators. Here, the power of strength and speed, of brute force and primitiveness, and the story of life and death was told in its entirety.


    The enemies were everywhere. Sang Tie and others did not even need to aim for their targets. In fact, given the chaotic situation, aiming for targets was a foolish idea.


    Sang Tie understood that. Their mechs were closely arranged together like ab, and the teeth of thisb were sharp. What would it feel like to bebed through with a tool like this? Sang Tie and his men demonstrated it all, leaving trails of flesh and blood!


    The attack happened so fast that all the viewers could barely breathe under the suspense. It was too violent! Compared to an exchange ofser attacks in outer space, this war was even more vicious and shocking. People breathed heavily as they watched. The holographic screen remained silent, but the explosive and continuous assault via collisions could almost tear the screen apart.


    Compared to what was showing now on the holographic screen, the so-called grandly staged movies were like child''s y. People watched in fear at the battle unfolding on the holographic screen.


    He Yue Gxy was apetitive ce, where forces stood against one another, but for the average person, life was usually peaceful and safe.


    However, the world had changed! They suddenly realized that death and war had arrived so close to them. Fear began to spread among themoners. Adults covered the children''s eyes. They did not want the children to witness such a bloody and dreadful scene.


    Sang Tie''s expression was steel cold. They were doing well so far, killing so many of the unknown lifeforms that he lost count of. The battle was like a war in hell for the people in the He Yue Gxy, but for the seasoned warriors like Sang Tie and his tribe, it was only battle as usual. After their battle during the Beast Stampede,rge scale battles were no longer unfamiliar to them. In this respect, the Three Aristocratic Families wereckingpared to them.


    Sang Tie may look like a rough man, but he was in reality a man of detail. He even had some talent in warfare. Soon, he noticed subtle changes in the battlefield. Since the Collision mechs kept running into the unknown lifeforms, they had begun to slow down. Without enough speed, Collision mechs were less effective in attacks, and every member of the Sang Tribe knew this.


    Just then, a slightly weary voice from Sang Pu came through thems, "Companies of the first attack wave, leave the battlefield immediately, take care to stay in formation."


    "As expected of Sang Pu, to understand the situation at the frontlines even without being there, and grasping the timing well," Sang Tie thought to himself, praising the other man. Without further dy, the surviving mechs of the 1st to 10th Companies spread out and left the battlefield.


    The sudden departure of attackers was a great relief to the creatures, but before they could head back to the purple gas cloud, they realized in horror that another wave of attack was upon them!


    This time, the creatures received a devastating blow.


    Red-tailed beast - Ye Chong named the creatures as such. Of course, Mu had no objections. After all, red-tailed beast was better than being called Number One Lifeform or something. All the signs seemed to suggest that this particr red-tailed beast was the leader of the herd. Ye Chong decided to finish it off.


    Ye Chong knew that the wound he inflicted on the creature earlier was in part due to luck. Ye Chong was not used to relying on abstract ideas like luck. Would his lucky streak continue? The thought never urred to him at all.


    The best strategy now would be to pursue their enemy and thoroughly defeat them, solving the problem once and for all.


    Ye Chong gave his all, pursuing the red-tailed beast.


    It looked like he was quite lucky after all, to have kept up with the beast so far. Given the chaotic environment, even Mu''s scanning system would be useless, much less Han Jia''s holographic scanning system. He could only rely on the sodiummp and stay on the enemy''s tail. It was not easy.


    The red-tailed beast was heading outwards quickly.


    Ye Chong was grateful for his earlier decision of destroying all the vesicles in his path. If any red-tailed beast suddenly appeared here right now, even the most average red-tailed beast would put him at a great disadvantage.


    The one escaping would not be this particr red-tailed beast, but himself.


    Ye Chong kept his eyes wide open, wary of making mistakes. In thisplicated environment, he could lose his target at any moment. Once he lost his prey, it would be impossible to find it again.


    There would be a huge, thick flesh column at the next turn, Ye Chong remembered clearly. He had entered the center region of the purple gas cloud from there.


    He grew anxious immediately. Just now, Sang Pu and the rest were still fighting against the red-tailed beasts out here. The fight must be going on viciously. If he wanted to surround and attack his strong and destructive target out there, they would certainly pay a high price for it. Besides, it was more spacious out there, with more gaps around them for the beast to go through and escape.


    It seemed as though Ye Chong''s pursuit was about to end in failure, as the red-tailed beast went halfway through the flesh column. However, to Ye Chong''s surprise, the creature suddenly turned tail, as if in fright, and headed off in another direction.


    Ye Chong was surprised for a moment, but quickly reacted and continued his pursuit. The red-tailed beast momentary pause allowed Ye Chong to close the distance between them.


    What happened out there? Ye Chong was baffled. However, he pushed the question aside quickly and concentrated on chasing the wounded red-tailed beast.


    The red-tailed beast was very familiar with the area. Had it not been wounded, Ye Chong would not have been able to keep up for so long. Even so, Ye Chong still had to give all he had to keep up.


    This posed a challenge to his mech maneuvering skills. There were turns everywhere. An average mech pilot would have turned dizzy in the pursuit. Even though short ranged turns were one of Ye Chong''s better moves, he was also affected by the rough flight. Nevertheless, he suppressed whatever difort he felt and continued on. He knew that this was his best chance to finish off the red-tailed beast. If he missed this chance, the next time would not be so easy.


    Ye Chong followed the red-tailed beast as best as he could.


    Just then, after avoiding another flesh column, Ye Chong felt the space in front of him open up, but his heart sank. He and the red-tailed beast had entered the empty space where all the normal red-tailed beasts were.


    However, what Ye Chong found was enough to leave even someone as rigid as him bbergasted!


    Floating all round him were dead bodies of the red-tailed beasts. These cold, gray bodies floated around peacefully in the space around him, too many to count. The flesh columns nearby were also turned into a mess, thoroughly destroyed, leaving no more fluid in their flesh. Their dark gray surfaces looked dim and lifeless.All the vesicles on the flesh columns were also destroyed.


    The red-tailed beast that just entered the area froze in ce for a moment, then looked back at Ye Chong.


    Its crimson red eyes were now shining in the color of blood, with its face twisted menacingly.


    Ye Chong felt all his hair rise. He quickly readied himself for battle. A beast at bay will put up a desperate fight. That was the nature of things. Ye Chong had no wish to die here.


    However, much to his astonishment, the red-tailed beast turned and ran, moving even faster than before.


    After a short pause, Han Jia elerated and continued its pursuit.
