‘Sir, we are approaching the Gateway,” Hua said respectfully to Ye Chong. In He Yue Galaxy, the strong earned respect from the people. Ye Chong's strength was enough to earn respect from them all. They also hoped that he would be bring them home with his warship.

Once outside Csebesini, they were constantly interrupted with red-tailed beasts. Hua and the others also felt shaken by what they saw.

Where did this warship's crew come from? Hua and his people always broke out in cold sweat whenever they saw them in action. Were these people still humans? They killed the red-tailed beasts like a hot knife through butter. Words can barely describe their strength. Even those crew members who looked so weak and fragile managed to surprise Xi Feng Tribe's Feng Yan.

She knew that mentalists of their level were considered geniuses in their Tribe, and yet there were hundreds of them on this warship. Since when had such masterful mentalists became so common? Besides, these people were so young … How could this possibly be true?

As the warship Darkniss advanced, they encountered more and more red-tailed beasts. Hua and his people went from greatly surprised to being numbed by their battles. In fact, any casualties the combatants suffered would have surprised them even more.

The presence of Hua and his people did not come as a surprise to Ye Chong. As someone who had seen all the best fighters from the Three Aristocratic Families, these branch members could hardly surprise him.

The main reason Ye Chong allowed them to come along their journey was because they knew where the Gateway to He Yue Galaxy was. Based on what he knew, there were three Gateways that led from the Five Galaxies to He Yue Galaxy, each controlled by one of the Three Aristocratic Families. Ye Chong had spent time in the Orbits and Black Coe before, but he did not know the way to these Gateways. Fortunately, he now had people from all the Three Aristocratic Families to lead the way.

Rui Bing wanted to visit her mother and Grandpa Qian, but she held back. Now was not the best time to visit them. Xi Ding might just take advantage of it.

In the end, Ye Chong chose the MPA to help him. They traveled using the Gateway under Xue Lai Clan's control. This was the closest Gateway to Csebesini.

“This is the Gateway to He Yue. We controlled this Gateway, but the red-tailed beasts were too strong. In the end, we had to retreat to Csebesini.” Hua spoke with mixed emotions. He was secretly worried. He never doubted the Clan's power, but it had been a long time since the red-tailed beasts took over the Gateway, and there was no news from the Clan ever since. They did not send any reinforcements to the Gateway, which was a worrying sign.

He feared that the Clan was in danger as well.

Here at the Gateway, Ye Chong and his people were met with strong resistance. There were far more red-tailed beasts here than anywhere they had been. This suggested to the humans that the red-tailed beasts were intelligent, such that they knew to guard their important assets.

There were casualties daily, but only with minor injuries. So far, the battle still leaned towards Ye Chong. His mech pilots had experienced countless battles in a short period. They were now true war veterans, honed sharper and sharper by their battles.

The improvements in the shooters were particularly obvious. No shooter had ever fought so intensely and frequently. The fact was, battle experience was tremendously helpful for them to improve. This was especially true for shooters at Level 7 and 8. Ye Chong could appreciate better now why Mei Wu chose to stay in Darkniss.

To conserve their overall strength, Ye Chong would sometimes join the battle with Celest. Whenever this happened, the students who were not assigned for combat would enjoy his performance, occasionally offering commentaries on the side.

Compared to the group battles by the other mech pilots, Ye Chong's solo fights were more interesting. His preferred style was close range combat, fought with a mixture of cold calculation and explosive power. The students were always engrossed in his fights. If the warship had viewership records, Ye Chong's fights would definitely hold the highest record.

On the other hand, disciples of the Ye Family could only watch with astonishment. The Ye Family, famed for close range combat, could not hope to compare with this average looking young man.

Finally, they made it through the Gateway!

Hua and his people were overwhelmed by emotions.

However, the deserted view before them caught them off guard. The base was an abandoned wreck. Buildings were damaged everywhere, and covered by a thick layer of dust that suggested long absence of its previous occupants.

“Impossible!” Hua gasped with a trembling voice. The view had left him shaken.

50 thousand soldiers were stationed at this base! The Clan placed great importance on this place – he knew that very well. Nevertheless, the base was now empty.

He knew that with only a small group of people guarding this narrow Gateway, the red-tailed beasts would no be able to pass through. He also knew that the elders in the Clan could see this too.

So why, why did the Clan abandon this place?

Perhaps the situation escalated far beyond his imagination. His chest tightened at the thought.

They were finally in He Yue Galaxy. Everyone, including Ye Chong, Rui Bing and Sang Kan, felt greatly relieved. They must now quickly make contact with the Sang Tribe.

Ye Chong did not notice Hua's emotional turmoil. He was focused entirely on reaching out to the Sang Tribe. It was a simple task – as long as they had access to the virtual world or a place with pulsed signals, they would be able to get in touch with the Sang Tribe. After all, they had the infinitely capable Maverick, Little Rock, on Yi Ju.

However, things were made difficult for them. All the infrastructure around them was thoroughly destroyed.

Darkniss headed towards Yi Ju. They were now crossing Xue Lai Clan's territory.

“Sir, we have a situation.” Someone reported succinctly. After surviving so many battles, the crew members were no longer easily unnerved.

“Ah!” Hua gasped. His body was shaking.

In front of them was a beautiful light blue colored planet, but it was deep in war.

All around the planet, laser beams were fired here and there. Mech squads accompanied by their warships fired against the red-tailed beasts with great tenacity. The red-tailed beasts were fast, and the mech pilots could barely aim at their target. The creatures did not fight with any visible strategy, bu they were gaining the upper hand. The battle was at its peak. Occasional laser beams shot on Darkniss's hull, igniting sparks.

Just a short distance away from the planet was a huge cloud of purple mist.

“Sir! Please, I beg you! Please save our Clan!” Hua suddenly turned to Ye Chong and kneeled down heavily as he begged. Tears streamed from his eyes. He never imagined that his ride home would end with him seeing the planet like this.

The other members of the Xue Lai Clan quickly went down on their knees as well and asked Ye Chong for help.

On the holographic screen, laser beams intertwined while mechs and red-tailed beasts pursued each other madly. For a moment, Ye Chong was lost in thought.

Appilok looked towards Ye Chong with a tilt in his head. He waited for Ye Chong's signal.

Ye Chong quickly recovered himself. It had only been a few seconds. Suddenly, one of the mechs on the screen caught his attention.

“Siva!” Ye Chong gasped.

Hua jolted, and looked up hopefully. “Sir, do you know Master Siva?”

Siva dodged left and right, avoiding all the attacks from the red-tailed beasts. However, the strength from a single mech was limited, and not enough to turn the situation around. When Ye Chong saw Siva, he could not help but remembered about the young boy. Rui Bing looked towards him, and Ye Chong saw her sharing his thoughts.

Did his mother belong to this Tribe? Ye Chong felt a mixture of emotions rising in him. A strange bitterness silently crept inside his heart.

Soon, Ye Chong composed himself and studied the battle on the holographic screen with a calm eye. He made his decision quickly and nodded at Appilok. “Prepare for battle!”

Appilok was expecting it. In fact, before Ye Chong gave his order, all the combatants were already in position. Since battles became more frequent out here, they had chosen to eat and rest near their stations.

Hua and his people were overjoyed that Ye Chong agreed to readily. They always thought of Ye Chong was a cold man.

However, Ye Chong's next words chilled their burning enthusiasm. “Our target is the purple mist. Full speed ahead!”

Ye Chong knew the red-tailed beasts like no one else did. In some ways, he was more of an expert than Fei Si, an expert on the red-tailed beasts.

The flesh nest was the core of the red-tailed beasts. Only by destroying the flesh nest could they get rid of the red-tailed beasts thoroughly. The flesh nest was crucial to the growing population of red-tailed beasts and their evolution.

It was a drastic measure, but also a very risky one.

Ye Chong knew that once he started attacking the flesh nest, the red-tailed beasts would rush towards it. If they did not destroy the flesh net completely before the creatures arrived, they would never have a second chance. They must leave the purple mist before the red-tailed beasts arrive so that his mech pilots could be put to use.

With the colloid fungus substance spread on the warship's hull, Darkniss flew unnoticed towards the purple mist.

Everyone felt nervous. Besides Ye Chong, no one else knew what was in the purple mist.

The ship cannons were charging now, but the real weapon Ye Chong relied on was the 600 shooters on the ship.

Once they entered the purple mist, all holographic systems would be down. When that happened, they could only rely on the shooters, who had parapsychic abilities.

The purple mist had no effect on them.
