Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 1280 - 15: Mutation at the Jump Point!
Every 24 hours that pass, there is a distinct change in strength for Shadow Island.
Fully industrialized Shadow Island possesses astonishing productivity.
The Firmament Arrow Formation creates a vertical plane, swiftly skimming across the universe, fiercely penetrating the Solomon escort fleet.
The giant light arrow launched by the Dawn Battleship first hit the opponent's lead ship.
It pierced vertically through the bow, exiting through the stern.
That interstellar heavy cruiser did not provide the slightest obstruction.
Afterward, hundreds of light arrows thoroughly pierced the fleet, turning it into a honeycomb.
A silent sea of fire splendidly blooms in the deep space.
Mu Fan's eyes remained as cold as ever, showing no fluctuation in light of this magnificent scene.
Black, however, was satisfied watching the light screen in the virtual space, though he clicked his tongue with some regret.
The number of Solomon's fleets is far inferior to that of the Federation.
The Shadow Fleet's greatest future enemy is just one, those damned fleets on Capital Star!
Master Black will blast them into pieces one by one in three years.
However, neither realized that behind the transparent glass wall, [Evil Wing] stared with round eyes, completely stunned.
Mouth agape, sharp canines exposed, with pieces of unsmashed iron ore in the gaps.
Those Solomon fleets with ferocious firepower...
Just disappeared like that?
Playing with the dragon?
From a top-down perspective, [Evil Wing] appeared incredibly silly.
Half-sitting in the warehouse, its two dragon wings suspended in mid-air, lantern-like eyes showed a wooden dullness... causing its image to plummet endlessly.
Mu Fan glanced at the space where the troops had been cleared, turned his head, and immediately saw that dumb dragon contemplating some philosophy of life.
[This intelligence... truly not high.]
"What are you doing?"
Finally, Mu Fan spoke up to inquire.
The glass door opened, Mu Fan's voice clearly transmitted into [Evil Wing]'s ear.
The dragon trembled in shock and when it saw Mu Fan staring at it, it staggered backward three steps.
Mu Fan was speechless for a while, thinking it might be better to arrange for Black to conduct psychological counseling for the dragon.
"I need to say this in advance."
"Here, betrayal is forbidden. If you're found communicating with other forces behind our backs, you'll die a horrible death."
The mechanical dragon quickly shook its head, pointing at the conveyor belt that just delivered high crystal stones and iron ore.
It patted its chest with its wings, creating a thunderous sound.
Segments of spiritual waves translated by Black synchronized into Mu Fan's ear.
"Evil Wing is expressing its determination, its previous dealings with Solomon didn't count as loyalty. Now it does! ... Isn't that right, dumb dragon?" Black's projected light looked at Evil Wing.
The mechanical dragon immediately nodded frantically, fearing that any delay would lead to a beating.
"Alright, I somehow feel staring at you for too long will stall my thoughts, you need to stay alert now, convey any situation promptly to Black." Mu Fan felt his head swell, weakly waving his hand.
Evil Wing nodded vigorously, with excitement in its eyes, proving its value had arrived.
"Go to Warehouse No. 2, there's going to be a warship replacement there."
Evil Wing excitedly roared, turned——
Bang!
A mournful cry, Evil Wing's head actually bent the top of the 15-ton heavy warehouse door.
The whole dragon swayed like a drunk, wobbling for a few seconds... and then collapsed.
It was overly excited, forgetting the height of the warehouse exit.
"Simply stupid to tears."
Black weakly issued a robot dragging command, twenty engineering robots entered to lift the dizzy big guy out of the warehouse.
The Dawn Battleship currently hovered above the freighter.
The attracting force field had long been spread out.
Mu Fan and Evil Wing simultaneously ascended into the flagship [Dawn] of the Shadow Fleet.
...
"Set sail!"
...
Half an hour later, the one hundred twenty ships of the Shadow Fleet sailed over the sea of debris formed by the Solomon escort guard.
...
Three hours later, Shadow Fleet entered a desolate Chaotic Stone Zone.
Mu Fan and Black both noticed that in these three hours, they seemed not to have seen a single other ship.
Only occasionally did a piece of debris drift through space.
This...
How many people did Solomon clear away?
When half a day passed...
"I see it!"
With Black's excited shout, a purple vortex has been clearly captured on the light screen.
"Is this the Relic Jump Point?"
"But, isn't it a bit too quiet around here?"
Mu Fan was somewhat puzzled.
At the same moment, the Evil Wing that had been quietly lying in the central warehouse flashed puzzlement in its eyes, raised its head as if listening, occasionally darting to the left, then turning its head again.
The large lantern eyes flickered with thought and doubt.
Every few dozen seconds, it would gently grind its teeth.
This aura... there's indeed some kind of familiar ancient feel to it.
That vast sensation carrying the erosion of time, its premonition was indeed correct!
The Evil Wing immediately called out loudly.
Mu Fan's attention was instantly drawn back.
"Evil Wing says it feels a familiar aura, the source of perception all along the way should be up ahead at an energy concentrated place, but it says there's some abnormal aura mixed in, it feels some fear towards the unknown."
This time, Mu Fan was truly impressed by Evil Wing, because the surroundings and roof of the central warehouse were completely lightproof, Evil Wing couldn't see the outside of the ship.
Yet it accurately detected some kind of abnormal change, which had a direct link with the nearby area and the Jump Point.
"It feels the source of that aura is getting closer, it thinks it's abnormal, although the ancient aura is vast, it shouldn't possess such a distinct life aura like this universe's native beings. At this moment, it senses some inexplicable life aura."
Upon hearing this, Mu Fan's eyes instantly lit up.
Life aura!
Doesn't that mean the unique vitality of the ancient relics?
The ancient relics had disappeared, previously Evil Wing had been here and didn't feel any aura.
Now it feels it again.
Doesn't that suggest there's some fixed connection between the ancient relic location and this Jump Point!
Mu Fan's heart began to pound uncontrollably.
His first journey to explore the ruins seemed to have an unusual beginning.
It was a faint... anticipation!
"Prepare the entire ship for the jump."
"Black, it's up to you."
"Received!"
Black's voice also raised high, as Mu Fan uncovered the mysteries of this universe, it had long surpassed the existence of mere intelligent life.
So now it was like a pilgrimage!
If it could explore the secrets within, does that mean, in the future, it would open the door to the Yake Empire!
"Fleet, reorder, start cabin depressurization..."
"Warp engine, prepare..."
"Jump, commence!"
The Shadow Fleet enveloped in a thin white glow, the Giant Rock Heavy Armor Escort Ship led the way into the vortex.
The entire fleet was like a huge sharp arrow piercing in.
Yet at this moment...
In Mu Fan's pupils, a brilliant firework blossomed instantly.
Mu Fan's eye twitched heavily.
Because he could clearly see that the Giant Rock Battleship was instantly torn into pieces.
The over 2 meters thick heavy steel armor didn't serve any purpose, silently turning into a cloud of dust scattering in space.
The subsequent fleet already in warp speed, caught off guard, continued to charge forward, then was torn to pieces once more.
In an instant, a piercing alarm echoed throughout the entire warship.
"Unable to detect cause of explosion, journey danger index rising to 100%, please evade immediately!"
The Dawn Battleship forcibly reversed the engines, under the strong inertia, Mu Fan's hands almost sank into the steel.
He watched helplessly as the view ahead spun toward the sea of fire before him.
A tremendous sense of crisis erupted in his heart.
"Mu Fan, hold on!"
Black roared fiercely.
The Dawn Battleship's side armor deck fully opened, incredible that just before exiting warp it emitted an energy cannon shot, the ship forcibly sidestepping, colliding with an escort ship ahead, spinning off.
Buzz!
The enormous tremor transmitted through the feet into the body.
Mu Fan and Evil Wing were simultaneously flung heavily against the steel bulkhead.
A muffled groan and a mournful cry erupted simultaneously.
At the last moment, the Dawn Battleship forcibly borrowed the impact force provided by the escort ship, carving a dangerously narrow arc, grazed past the vortex, and returned to space.
While behind the Dawn Battleship, thirty-seven warships were instantly reduced to ashes.
"What happened!" Mu Fan's voice carried suppressed anger.
