Chapter 510: Spectre IV

Chapter 509: Spectre IV

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the ground it was a familiar sight.

Bodies of people, carcasses of red-tailed beasts, debris of mechs and the stench of blood.

The city looked all grand and majestic afar, yet it turned out to be a hollowed sculpture at a closer look. There were splashes of blood over the fair white wall, and the buzzes of flies.

The stench of blood circulating in the air seemed to have grown spiking and choking in Ye Chong's nose.

There were far more deaths in the city compared to the outside. The pilots outside were at least armed to last a few turns from the red-tailed beasts' attack, but these were the ordinary citizens which probably immediately pounced to death. Their uniforms had clarified their identity. They were the non-combat units, the technicians perhaps. Not many golden mechs could be seen around. Instead, the standard models filled up the streets, of different colors yet all unarmed.

Ye Chong might have undergone countless wars and seen countless deaths, yet the sight was shaking him a little.

Judging by the size of the city, the population should have easily 300,000, yet Ye Chong could not see, or even hear any survivor around.

Everything was dead, both the people and red-tailed beasts.

Including the red-tailed beasts here, the figure should already be over 5000. That was enough to cause a mayhem in Gray Valley.

Ye Chong could now synthesize the entire event in his mind. So this city should be an important investment by the Research Consortium to perform something, which could be justified by the vast number of elite pilots around. And to make sure that there would not be any uninvited guests from Gray Valley, they had begun spreading creepy rumors about Spectre. They probably paid a few people to get the ball rolling.

But somehow, one day, unfortunately, the red-tailed beasts could smell them underground, so the beasts launched an attack upon them. Nonetheless, similarly, the red-tailed beasts were also unfortunate as they had underestimated the vastness of consortium's force, so the war was too intensive and had lasted for too long.

The red-tailed beasts still fought hard for some reason, which led to the scene now.

"Follow me, Ye." It sounded like Shang's usual tone of big discovery, as he zoomed away the moment the last syllable rang.

And Ye Chong hurriedly pulled the lever to launch Han Jia's engine.

The city was utterly destroyed. One could already call it a ruin for real. Both Han Jia and Shang weaved in and out from one crumbled building to another, rapidly.

Out of sudden, Ye Chong's face looked drained, as he spotted something on his screen.

There was a small group of red-tailed beasts barraging the alloy gate where a golden mech stood behind it.

The golden mech's sword was broken into half and the mech itself was full of scratches. Its shield was long gone and it was holding the thrashing beasts back at its best. It was protecting someone, a man seemingly who looked wounded at the back.

The beasts were having fun apparently, as Ye Chong could identify a few chances to break through the defense and annihilated their last two targets. Yet, the beasts never did it and just thrashed blindly.

Ye Chong could also see the mech losing anytime soon.

"Shang, go!" he shouted and instantly launched himself towards the mech. It was no longer an issue of identity, whether the raided pilot being a friend or foe. Under the attack of red-tailed beasts, every human would be his friend.

Zap!

A golden beam took over Ye Chong and struck on head of one of the red-tailed beasts.

The broad golden beam, as if the judgement from heaven, penetrated the skull of the beast.

The other beasts, upon noticing the sudden attack, got panicked.

Klink!!!

The three crimson arrows crushed the struggling golden mech, which one of them pierced the cabin. The pilot probably had been sacrificed.

Even the calmest snow hill would have an avalanche due to spark of heat. That was Ye Chong's feeling when his eyes lost the glow and fully accelerated his Han Jia.

The golden mech should be dead, yet its arms began constricting the 3 tails that impaled its body.

The 3 red-tailed beasts were struggling to withdraw their tails, while their one free compatriot was going to help them, yet - *Zap* another golden ray passed by Ye Chong and sent that red-tailed beasts rolling on the ground.

Han Jia pulled out its daggers and stormed by the three red-tailed beasts.

"Awrrrrrr..." Their eyeballs enlarged drastically, as they wailed loud. A fine lining of blood was streaming off their neck.

Thump! Thup! Thump!

The three heads had fallen to the ground.

The golden mech was still gripping the tails and did not take any further action, as if stoned.

Well, that was a clear sign.

Ye Chong sighed softly as he looked into the opened cabin. The pilot was already dead.

He gently pulled the mech to the side. Ye Chong had high respects towards the sacrifice. The pilot had fulfilled his or her duty - to protect the people - till the very end. Shang lifted his new toy, "G-Z" and walked to Han Jia's side.

There was a moment of silence till Ye Chong turned to the wounded man behind.

Ye Chong got off Han Jia and walked to this man.

The man had a square face and thick brows. He might look weak, still he exuded a kind of solemnity. Nevertheless, he did not seem to be in the best shape at the moment. There was a severe cut on his left chest. The cut started from his collarbone, all the way to the end of his ribs. Ye Chong could see the bones revealing from the open-wound.

He frowned, such injury, he thought. The chances of surviving would be very low. He could help bandaging simple injury, but this was far too serious. Ye Chong was not a certified physician after all.

The man's lips wriggled, as he breathed faintly his words.

"...Bag...bag... potion... blue... potion..." That was what Ye Chong heard when he approached the man.

He naturally lowered his eyes and noticed there was indeed a bag, about size of his palm, resting at the waist of the man. The design seemed luxurious yet not practical enough for Ye Chong's taste. The number of buttons were not helpful in getting things out of the bag. A bit of his strength was applied and the buttons hopped everywhere.

There was a blue potion, as the man had said, inside an injection-gun for medical uses probably. Ye Chong took the gun out and brandished in front of the man, to convey understanding.

The man used the ounce of strength he mustered to make two nods.

Ye Chong removed the cover at the needle tip and stabbed it into the right arm of the man. He pressed the trigger and injected everything into the man.

"Ahhh.... HAHHHHHHH!" The man roared profoundly like a beast, as his body vibrated vigorously. For the past 30 seconds he shuddered continuously and slowly regained his serenity after.

The former pale face of the man had now become rosy.

Right when Ye Chong was showing deep concern towards this man, the changes of event were not in his script.

The man was no longer weak, as he got up like a normal person. Ye Chong intuitively grabbed the neck of the man and pushed him down the ground. If the man would like to do anything funny, his neck would be ripped.

"My, my, relax, I meant no harm," said the man wryly.

Ye Chong's hand was not moving an inch.

The situation was getting strange. This man was horribly injured, breathing dead a second ago and now he had fully recovered while having the mood to sound cheeky. Furthermore, the wound was still bleeding on his chest, anyone with such wound would have collapsed at this point, yet he was standing up.

"I am fairly intrigued. Who are you guys? How do you find this place?" the man asked curiously, as if there was no hand wrapping his neck.

There was no reply from Ye Chong. He glared right into the man's eyes and asked, "Who are you?"

"Hah. I'm Kui," the man introduced himself, with a bright smile.

Kui? I had never heard that name before.

"What is this place? What's that blue potion and what is it for? "

Kui raised his brows and looked at Ye Chong interestingly, "This place is known as the central base of the Research Consortium. The scientific name for that blue potion is called Nerve-sustaining Reagent. Its effect is to give a person with injury beyond healing an additional 5 hours to live at maximum. Within the 5 hours, the person would act as if unhurt, not feeling any form of pain. But the person would die the moment after that. The side-effect of this potion? Well, it makes the person impossible to cure."

Kui sounded so calm, as if he was not the one who took the potion.

Ye Chong observed the parts of Kui. His skin and his physique showed nothing about the warfield. He should be a non-combat member. Well, Ye Chong never expected this futuristic city being the central base of the Consortium. He once thought this was a mere base for a more major scientific research project. That explained the overwhelming number of guards around.

Ye Chong loosened his grip and sat in front of Kui.

"Haha... Looks like we are on business?" Kui smiled briefly upon seeing Ye Chong's gesture.

He was relaxed at first, till he looked at Shang, his pupils shrunk drastically, "You are the people of Xue Lai clan?!"
