Chapter 162: Chapter 162: Breaking Through the Front (Extra for Alliance Leader Dreaming of Flowing Fire) (Third Update)

Boom!

At that moment, swaths of Chilami were annihilated, but the Dhumu had reached the end of its ammunition.

The remaining operators all turned their heads to look at Chen Qian.

Chen Qian let out a slight breath and said,

"Transmit my order, input the overload instruction! Initiate self-destruct mode!"

The faces of those around him immediately showed shock, but they soon reacted, responding with a solemn voice.

"Yes!"

...

In the vastness of space,

Su Ming and the others, staring at the overwhelming Chilami and feeling desperate,

suddenly saw the flaming, battered Mother Ship, the Dhumu, speed past them towards the dense swarm of Chilami ahead.

"Mother Ship?"

Puli and the others were also taken aback.

At that moment, a steady voice came through the communication channel.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the temporary commander of the Dhumu, Chen Qian. It’s been an honor to fight alongside each of you. However, all good things come to an end. As your senior, I will send you off on one last journey. Goodbye!"

As Chen Qian’s words finished, the Dhumu’s engines went full throttle, its rear exhaust spewing scorching flames.

The entire Dhumu charged forward at full speed, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, it plunged headfirst into the thick ranks of the Chilami forces!

Boom~

The next second, the entire Dhumu Mother Ship exploded, the massive blast sweeping outwards, swallowing the surrounding Chilami.

Instantly the Chilami’s encirclement was blasted open.

"Senior!"

Puli and the others, watching this scene, were deeply moved.

"Break through to the front, charge out, do not let our senior’s sacrifice be in vain!"

Su Ming shouted to all the surviving comrades through the communication channel.

"That’s right, charge!"

...

With a chorus of responses, everyone desperately rushed towards the gap created by the explosion.

At the edges of the blast zone, the Chilami flowed towards the gap like a tide, meanwhile firing a barrage of attacks at Su Ming and his companions.

The incoming beams were incredibly dense, like raindrops.

Bang~

One mecha after another couldn’t dodge in time and was instantly riddled and exploded.

Su Ming controlled his mecha, dodging left and right with nerves stretched to the breaking point, knowing that if he got hit, a deluge of follow-up strikes would come.

They accelerated madly to break out.

Inside the communication channel, Puli and others roared.

"Charge!"

Everyone accelerated frantically towards the breach.

Whoosh!

Just as the breached gap was closed by the tide-like Chilami, everyone managed to break through successfully.

But before they could rejoice, they saw the converged Chilami chase after them like mad, attacking them from behind relentlessly.

"Are these Chilami crazy, are they dog-bred?"

Rhein and the others were going insane; they had made it through the breach, only to still be relentlessly pursued.

On the scanning screen now, you could see our green dots disappearing one by one. Any mecha hit by an attack, even if not destroyed, would slow down and be quickly overwhelmed by the chasing Chilami.

"Don’t get distracted, full speed ahead!"

Su Ming shouted to Rhein and the others.

But then, a baffling sight emerged for everyone, as clusters of Chilami reinforcements appeared in the stars ahead, though not as numerous as those in the encirclement.

But encountering the enemy at this critical moment was a nightmare!

These Chilami were firing a sky-full of beams at Su Ming and the others from a distance.

"Damn it, we’re being ambushed!"

Puli shouted in panic.

In an instant, Mechas were hit one after another, and even among the ten students from the internal school, two were unable to dodge and were killed.

Su Ming’s pupils shrank sharply as he violently pulled the control stick to dodge.

But even so, the light beams coming from the front and back were too dense, and there was simply no way to dodge them.

"Class president!"

At this time, Shi Wushan and a few others, controlling their Mechas recklessly, charged towards Su Ming, using their own Mechas as shields.

Boom, boom, boom~

Instantly, their Mechas were blasted one after another.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this scene, Su Ming felt both touched and angry; he never expected his classmates to protect him with their lives.

"Su Ming, what do we do now?"

Qin Feng shouted anxiously.

Su Ming’s expression changed rapidly, then he roared in the public communication channel.

"Everyone scatter and flee, staying together will only lead to annihilation, save whoever can be saved!"

"Scattering is useless too, ah, those damn Chilami are catching up from behind."

Puli shouted in anger and shock.

At this moment, the voice of Old Student Cresto came through the communication channel, saying to everyone.

"Fellow students, although we elder students cannot say that we are your seniors, and our skills might not even be as good as you newcomers, let us be the ones to see you off at this moment. You all break through boldly; leave the rear to us!"

Su Ming and the others were stunned; they did not expect that at the crucial moment, these elder students would step forward; they too were somewhat moved, and any previous displeasure was instantly forgotten.

Therefore, Su Ming and the others gratefully said to them.

"Thanks!"

Cresto and the others then each controlled their Mechas to turn around, bravely facing the pursuing Chilami.

"Charge!"

"Disperse!"

Puli immediately roared in the communication channel.

Suddenly, the surviving Mechas dispersed into small squads, breaking through in different directions.

About thirty Mechas followed Su Ming.

At this time, Cresto and the others also collided with the Chilami that were catching up, and were instantly overwhelmed, with occasional bursts of fire flashing within.

In less than a minute, Cresto and the others were all wiped out.

Nevertheless, they bought precious time for the breakout of the others.

At this moment, Su Ming led more than thirty Mechas, desperately flying forward. Along the way, scattered Chilami constantly rushed up to intercept them.

Su Ming controlled the Mecha to dodge, and when he couldn’t dodge, he shot straight through, forcefully pushing forward.

And not far ahead of them was Planet Tyboken.

Planet Tyboken was a smaller planet with a greyish atmosphere.

At this time, the entire outer space region of the planet was littered with damaged ships and defense weapons, as well as wandering Chilami.

These wandering Chilami, upon spotting Su Ming and the others, their crimson eyes lit up instantaneously and they attacked crazily.

"Crap, even the Chilami wandering on the planet surface are coming for us. Where’s the defense force of Tyboken? Haven’t they all been wiped out?"

Rhein was suddenly dumbstruck.

At that moment, Lin Chuyu also glanced back and said to Su Ming and the others.

"The Chilami from behind are catching up!"

"Su Ming, what should we do now?"

Zhang Yi asked anxiously.

"There’s only one way, break through the blockades forcibly and crash-land on Planet Tyboken."

Su Ming really had no other choice. If they could win this rescue war, it would be truly miraculous; the military strength of the two sides wasn’t even comparable.

"Exactly, it’s time to test our skills and luck."

Beikaen said over the communication channel.
