As the mechs were piloted, the two flew towards the southwest of the city.
According to intelligence and time calculations, Dong San should have already reached the military camp stationed on the outskirts of the city.
"The only hope now is that the traitor hasn't revealed all our information to the military," Gu Ya said coldly.
"If that's the case... we must eliminate all who know, to prevent future trouble."
Bai Zhan · Hen calmly replied, "I'm more inclined to believe he has already leaked information in exchange for the military's protection. We must prepare for the worst in all situations." 138 Reading Network
"Gu Ya, you brought me out on this mission, but you don't entirely trust me, do you?"
Gu Ya lightly hummed in agreement, "Let's not beat around the bush. There is this reason; after all, we don't know each other well."
"But I can see that you are an exceptionally capable person, and you must have a way to find Dong San quickly."
"As expected, my guess was right."
Bai Zhan · Hen merely responded with a soft "Mm" and said no more.
With the forged Black Star military information by Gu Ya, the Black Star military camp did not impede them.
After successfully passing through the mecha detection instruments, the two entered the camp.
What was called a military camp was, in reality, a small satellite city surrounding the Black Star Metropolitan City.
The city had all the necessary living facilities, and there were even some civilians residing there, mostly families of the Black Star Army.
Gu Ya's alias, Ding Xiu · Bei, was still effective here. With the assistance of "Yong Meng," the two quickly found the person responsible for receiving Dong San.
"This early morning, someone named Dong San came to find you?" Gu Ya asked sternly.
The Black Star officer in front of them had a lower rank than Gu Ya.
He wore a fawning smile, clearly having benefited greatly the night before and hadn't slept out of excitement.
Upon hearing Gu Ya utter the name "Dong San," his expression instantly froze, and he began to stammer.
Gu Ya's heart leaped with joy; it seemed he had found the right person.
Placing a hand on the man's shoulder, Gu Ya casually conjured a consciousness visualization device and placed it on the officer's head.
Five seconds later, Gu Ya withdrew from his consciousness, and said to Bai Zhan · Hen, "It's confirmed, it's him."
"He had a one-on-one contact with Dong San, receiving a large sum of money to provide an escape route for him."
"And here's some good news: Dong San didn't betray our intelligence."
Bai Zhan · Hen nodded and asked, "Is there still time to leave? This place is thousands of kilometers from the border, and they won't be able to escape in just a few hours."
"Let's go!"
The sky was just beginning to brighten, heralding the imminent rise of a new red sun from the horizon.
Following the memories from the officer's consciousness, Gu Ya and Bai Zhan · Hen flew southeast along a long and towering mountain range.
The undulating mountains remained shrouded in darkness under the early morning sun.
It was as if countless demons hid within the dense shadows of the trees.
"Early sun..." Gu Ya murmured.
Two years ago, the Brother Wu who had helped him, he wondered where he was now.
If it weren't for Wu Chu Yang, he and Ye Ying wouldn't have met so smoothly.
"I hope he is safe and well."
Suddenly, eight small bright white dots appeared at the edge of the mech radar, over two hundred kilometers away from Gu Ya and Bai Zhan · Hen.
These white dots were not moving forward but were circling and hovering in place.
"Is it them? Why aren't they continuing their flight?" Bai Zhan · Hen asked calmly.
With Gu Ya's years of combat experience, he quickly understood the reason and said, "They've been ambushed."
Bai Zhan · Hen immediately understood, "Mm, guerrilla soldiers often appear in this mountainous region."
"Let's go take a look!"
Gu Ya and Bai Zhan · Hen simultaneously boosted their engines and shot forward at breakneck speed.
About ten kilometers from the engagement zone, several small black dots were circling and hovering in the sky, occasionally colliding with each other.
Indeed, this Black Star mecha contingent had encountered an ambush.
However, judging from the increasingly clear mecha outlines and the battle situation, it seemed only one mecha was blocking the Black Star squad.
As they drew closer, Gu Ya could already hear the deafening roars of mecha combat.
Five Black Star military mechas were being harassed by a single gray-white mecha, unable to break free.
The gray-white mecha was as swift as a wolf, utilizing the agility advantage of its light combat mecha to continuously intercept the Black Star mechas attempting to break through.
The dark brown beam saber in its hand traced winding light trails, fearlessly piercing each enemy mecha.
"Help it?" Bai Zhan · Hen asked coldly.
"No rush, let's watch first," Gu Ya replied.
Among these Black Star mechas, four were light combat mechas, and one was a transport mecha.
Two enemy mechas were shielding the transport mecha, while the other two were engaged in combat with the gray-white mecha.
On the ground, the wreckage of two enemy mechas had already crashed, sending plumes of black smoke rising.
"Not bad!" Gu Ya exclaimed, "To hold off so many Black Star mechas single-handedly and still gain the upper hand. This guerrilla fighter's piloting skills are exceptional."
Just as Gu Ya said,
The gray-white mecha instantly deployed its auxiliary wings, lowered its altitude, and rapidly dove beneath an enemy mecha.
Then, it adjusted the angle of its auxiliary wings, immediately increased its propulsion, and shot upwards with bursting flames!
The close-range shotgun mounted on its back roared to life, unleashing a torrent of bullets into the back of the Black Star mecha.
As the barrage struck the enemy mecha, the gray-white mecha, wielding its beam saber, charged forward rapidly.
The blade pierced the enemy mecha's back, and using the mecha's momentum, it forcefully lifted upwards!
The dorsal armor of the Black Star enemy mecha was directly cleaved open!
Following that, the gray-white mecha deactivated its main propulsion, reversed the angle of its auxiliary thrusters, and lunged again,
Slamming down with repeated slashes on the enemy mecha's back!
Soon, this Black Star enemy mecha was cut into several pieces by the opponent and crashed towards the mountains.
"Hey! Stop just watching! Which unit are you from? Come over and help!"
An urgent cry from a Black Star pilot simultaneously came through Bai Zhan · Hen and Gu Ya's communicators!
Gu Ya chuckled coldly and responded, "Of course, we must help!"
The two mechas quickly activated their high-power thrusters and shot forward at breakneck speed, one behind the other.
To everyone's surprise, the two newly arrived mechas did not help attack the gray-white mecha.
Instead, they plunged their swords into the abdomen of a Black Star mecha.
Gu Ya lightly manipulated the control stick, while his other hand swiftly tapped the mecha's commands.
With a simple sidestep and evasion maneuver, the mecha easily took down a Black Star mecha.
Although not as swift as Gu Ya, Bai Zhan · Hen was also highly skilled and engaged in a fierce battle with another enemy mecha.
The transport mecha seized an opportunity, quickly activated its thrusters, and prepared to break out.
But Gu Ya would not give it a chance. With two quick [Flash Burst] maneuvers, he surged forward. With a swift slash, he severed the enemy's thruster nozzles, rendering it powerless and unable to fly.
When he looked back,
The last enemy mecha, under the combined assault of Bai Zhan · Hen and the gray-white mecha, was finally shot down.
However, the gray-white mecha's entire armor had cracked in more than a dozen places, and its internal structure was also damaged, making it difficult for it to maintain high-speed flight.
"Stay, friend, I can help you repair your mecha," Gu Ya said to the pilot of the gray-white mecha.
The pilot was highly cautious.
Furthermore, Gu Ya and Bai Zhan · Hen were piloting Black Star mechas, so he naturally did not agree and turned to fly away.
Gu Ya maneuvered his mecha in front of the other party,
Pleading, "We are not from the Black Star Army. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Come down and let's chat."
This time, the other party did not refuse. He shut down his main thrusters and landed steadily on the mountain.
About ten minutes later, Gu Ya and Bai Zhan · Hen pulled the unconscious Dong San out of the cockpit of the crashed transport mecha.
The pilot of the gray-white mecha also emerged from his mecha and stood in the distance.
Dragging Dong San by his collar, the two walked steadily in front of the gray-white mecha pilot.
Gu Ya gazed at the tall young man.
He was not old, and in fact, appeared slightly younger than Gu Ya.
With black hair and white skin, his appearance did not resemble a typical Black Star Imperial citizen, but rather more like someone from Xian Xia.
He was wearing a torn combat suit and carried several outdoor survival gear items, indicating he had lived in the wild for a long time.
"What is your name? You don't look very old, why are you a guerrilla soldier?" Gu Ya asked with a friendly smile.
The other party did not answer Gu Ya's question but cautiously retorted, "You're not Black Star people? First, help me fix my mecha, and then I'll tell you."
Gu Ya smiled faintly and simply moved his fingers. A brand new Black Star combat mecha appeared behind the other party.
"This is for you."
"Your 'Sen Lang Guerilla Ranger' is a ten-year-old model with many design flaws and is not suitable for modern combat."
The other party glanced at the new mecha but showed no excitement; instead, he looked disgusted. "I don't want anything from Black Star."
"This little brat is quite picky!" This time, Bai Zhan · Hen was displeased and said coldly, "He doesn't even want something that's given for free."
Seeing that the other party remained unmoved,
Gu Ya smiled kindly, "Alright, I'll give you any mecha you want."
The other party clearly did not trust Gu Ya and remained vigilant, saying without politeness, "If you can conjure Xian Xia's White Dragon 035 light combat mecha, the one with an extra main thruster installed, and also, I want... Holy cow, my friend!"
Before the other party could finish, Gu Ya conjured an even more advanced 'White Dragon 077 model' heavy light combat mecha.
Its handsome exterior exuded an unspoken might.
The independent strut antenna resembled a unicorn's horn, pointing defiantly towards the blue sky.
Each shoulder was equipped with two close-range electromagnetic shotguns for killing enemies.
On the posterior of the left arm was an ejection combat dagger bay, containing ten tactical daggers.
The right arm was equipped with a main combat combination beam saber and an external beam arm shield.
On the posterior of the waist, two high-power auxiliary thrusters provided propulsion comparable to a medium mecha's auxiliary power, complementing the main thruster and appearing extremely aesthetically pleasing.
On the sides of the thighs, each was equipped with two air-to-air missile pods,
Loaded with 30 'Little Swift Hawk' model short-range air-to-air armor-piercing missiles,
Capable of penetrating enemy mecha armor in close-range dogfights within fifty meters.
The rest, including auxiliary high-energy palm lasers, heavy bombardment weapon units in the feet, close-range armor-piercing spikes in the knees, and so on, went without saying.
Gu Ya smiled faintly, "Now, can you tell us your name?"
The other party's eyes lit up, extremely satisfied with this mecha equipped to the teeth. He exclaimed in pleasant surprise,
"18 years old, from Xian Xia. Captured by Black Star five years ago, and became a guerrilla soldier after escaping."
"The 'Qi' in Miracle, the 'Ji' in Miracle."
"My name is Miracle!"
