Chapter 1229 Jialan s.h.i.+p
Just as the imperial operators felt that the stars.h.i.+p was going to explode, it suddenly lit up brightly and rose up quickly.
Most of the beams missed the stars.h.i.+p. Those that managed to hit the stars.h.i.+p got blocked by the light s.h.i.+eld, resulting in the light s.h.i.+eld dimming a little.
“That is a beam s.h.i.+eld. How are they able to have a beam s.h.i.+eld around the whole stars.h.i.+p?” Most stars.h.i.+ps were unable to have a whole beam s.h.i.+eld around them due to the amount of energy it required to sustain it. Normally, stars.h.i.+ps would usually form beam s.h.i.+elds around 30 meters long, and they would just move it around the stars.h.i.+p to block any incoming projectiles.
If the s.h.i.+elds didn’t move fast enough, the projectiles would hit the stars.h.i.+p, causing huge damage. Moreover, stars.h.i.+ps moved slowly so it lacked the agility to dodge projectiles. That was why it couldn’t be the main strength in an intergalactic war. To put the nail in the coffin, the production cost of such stars.h.i.+ps was exponentially higher than mechas.
“Ah, look behind them.” Someone exclaimed.
When the stars.h.i.+p rose up, the imperial operators from Twilight managed to see what was hiding behind it.
There were more than 40 mechas hiding behind the stars.h.i.+ps. The mechas evaded the beams and charged towards them.
“Ace mechas in the meteoroid zone? Are they looking for death?” The imperial operators from Twilight scoffed when they saw ace mecha operators rus.h.i.+ng towards them rashly.
“No, there are not just ace mechas. They have imperial mechas too.” Someone with amazing eyesight managed to see the appearance of the mechas even though they were moving at high speed.
“They have imperial operators… who owns these stars.h.i.+ps?” The leader of the Twilight imperial operators was astounded. Did they accidentally attack some powerful figure’s stars.h.i.+p?
Only an important figure of the Federation had such powerful guards.
“They only have 40 imperial mechas. They’re not our match. We’ll settle them first before attacking the three stars.h.i.+ps.” The leader of the Twilight imperial operators suppressed the uneasiness in his heart.
They had more imperial operators on their side. There was no need to be afraid.
“Yes!” All the imperial operators took out their sword from behind their backs and fought with the ace mechas from the Federation.
The Twilight mechas quickly surrounded the mechas from the Federation. Suddenly, three powerful beams shot towards the Twilight mechas.
Bang!
The imperial operators in the line of fire moved away quickly. However, there were some mechas who didn’t evade on time. They got scratched by the three beams.
Imperial mechas had beam s.h.i.+elds protecting them but the beams shot from stars.h.i.+ps were too powerful. It depleted all the energy of the beam s.h.i.+elds in an instant and even caused heavy damage to the body of the mechas.
If the mechas were hit by the beam without any s.h.i.+elding, they would be instantly vapourized. The imperial operators that managed to barely escape from the gates of h.e.l.l felt cold sweat pouring down their back.
“Be careful. The beams are coming from the main cannon of Destruction Devil.” The leader of the Twilight imperial operators was at the back so he saw where the three beams came from.
“d.a.m.n it. How dare a stars.h.i.+p attack us. Are they looking for death?” The imperial operators from Twilight were furious. They turned their mechas and started flying towards the stars.h.i.+ps without waiting for their leader’s order.
The leader wanted to stop them. However, he saw that they still had around 60 mechas on their side fighting against the mechas from the Federation. He felt that they still had the advantage. Hence, he didn’t stop the imperial operators who were charging towards the stars.h.i.+ps.
After all, they needed to stop the stars.h.i.+ps from attacking them too. That way, they wouldn’t have to remain vigilant of the stars.h.i.+ps while fighting with the mechas from the Federation.
After killing these ace mecha operators from the Federation, they would take care of the three Destruction Devils. If they were able to drag one back to Twilight, they would be able to convince Caesar to help them by gifting it to them. The Federation would surely be dead meat then.
“Luo Chao, are you alright?” Han Xuya was nervous when she saw the imperial mechas flying towards them.
Luo Chao was lying in the c.o.c.kpit. She smiled and said, “Xuya, don’t worry. Boss designed this battles.h.i.+p for me. I’ll make sure I maximise its performance.”
“Okay. You can concentrate. I won’t disturb you.” Han Xuya quickly kept quiet.
This was the first time they were using a stars.h.i.+p to fight with mechas. However, their enemies were not normal mechas but imperial mechas. The difficulty of the battle increased. If it was her, she might be in a flurry now. However, Luo Chao seemed confident. Her confidence probably came from her innate talent.
“Jialan, please help me,” Luo Chao called in a soft voice.
“Jialan is here. Please give your order.” A cute voice was heard.
A beautiful young girl with her hair tied up in two buns appeared on the virtual screen of the c.o.c.kpit. She gave a shy smile. She looked slightly like the young Luo Chao.
“Come, Jialan.” Luo Chao smiled.
Jialan ran over and jumped into Luo Chao’s arms. The moment she entered Luo Chao’s arms, Jialan disappeared. Luo Chao closed her eyes and went into deep sleep.
“I always find it amazing when Luo Chao controls the Jialan s.h.i.+p.” Han Xuya was a little envious. She sat at the side and grabbed the handles of her chair tightly. Things were going to get exciting
“Everyone, sit on your chairs and buckle your safety belt. If you don’t have one, just tightly grab a fixed object. Jialan s.h.i.+p is officially activated.” Luo Chao’s gentle voice echoed through the entire s.h.i.+p.
The soldiers on Jialan s.h.i.+p immediately stopped what they were doing and dashed to the nearest seats. They buckled their seat belt tightly. Those that weren’t able to return to their seats in time found a fixed object and hung on it for dear life.
After everyone was in position, the Jialan s.h.i.+p dived 90 degrees and evaded the beams shot by the imperial mechas.
“Ah!” High-pitched screams were heard throughout the sialan s.h.i.+p. However, this was just the beginning. The Jialan s.h.i.+p rose up 180 degrees again. The main cannons were aimed at the imperial mechas.
“F**k, how is that possible. No stars.h.i.+p is able to move like that.” The imperial operators from Twilight were flabbergasted by the movement of the Jialan s.h.i.+p. They couldn’t believe their eyes.
