Chapter 70: Fight (Part 3)
The golden-blue flames burned so vigorously that the black artillery fire from the black starships in the sky looked like pebbles thrown into the sea.
Feren's face twisted as he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't think you're the only one who can unleash your mental power..."
"Don't go crazy!!!" Ming Yan shouted from the starship, "Feren!!! Calm down!! There's Mulan's starship behind us! They're clearly on the same side as the colorful ones..."
The starship piloted by Mulan was patrolling the periphery of the battlefield. The atmosphere in the cockpit was tense. All they could hear was Vincent's constant muttering, "Don't go over there, don't go over there. You can't go over there now..."
"roar!--"
The gold, blue, and black collided again, engulfing the black artillery fire once again and biting off the left secondary gun muzzle of the starship.
Feren's eyes were red, veins on his forehead were exposed, and he had almost completely lost his mind. He tried his best to input his mental power into the muzzle of the gun.
Amidst the flames below, Mingyu felt even more fear than Feren and Mingyan.
As a starship designer, Mingyu knew that the mechanical heart on the starship he designed in the previous competition enhanced mental power by about thirty times.
Although Mu Baixing's current burst of spiritual power was not as intense as when he ignited the energy field of the Star Sea Map...
But it’s not too different!
"Brother Mu! Mu Baixing! Stop! There's no need to fight them!" he shouted. "This isn't a competition! They're driving a starship!—"
The energy collided, and the sound in his ears was too chaotic. Mingyu used the highest volume, but Mu Baixing did not hear it.
As if to make up for the mistake of breaking its shield and causing Mingyu to scream in pain, the golden flame burned even more vigorously.
Mingyu: “…”
"Your mental domain will be severely overloaded if you do this! Are you not in your right mind..." His voice was hoarse, but Mu Baixing didn't seem to be listening to him at all!
It's like talking to a cow!
Mingyu: “…”
He was pressed down by Mu Baixing. He gritted his teeth and exerted a lot of strength to barely find a support point, pushed up the man's body, and sat up while hugging Mu Baixing.
The man used his arms to hold Mingyu tightly, pressing the young man into his arms.
But he lowered his head, his chin resting loosely on Mingyu's shoulder.
Tangled hair obscured most of her face, and Mingyu could feel the chaotic and rapid breathing brushing against his neck. He tilted his head and saw blood oozing from the other person's slightly parted lips, dripping onto his shoulder.
However, the other person's eyes, which were usually cold and sharp, were now blank.
It was as if he had lost control of his body, and the release of mental power was based on his instinct.
"Mu Baixing..."
Mingyu really had no choice but to grit his teeth and hit Mu Baixing's neck hard.
“…”
The man's pupils dilated slightly, his arms lost strength and fell down, falling on Mingyu.
The golden flames burning upwards lost control and suddenly dispersed to the sides, revealing the black light cannon inside that had not been completely consumed.
The bright blue beam of light contained within it, carrying Ming Yu's rage, continued upwards, attacking Faerun's starship!
"Bang!"
There was a deafening explosion.
It swallowed up the black gunfire, brewing an explosion that no one could have predicted except Mingyu.
"Oh my god...!" Cui Xiaoduo clung to the fixed pole tightly, muttering, "What kind of trick is this..."
Their starships were on the periphery and were shaking violently under the impact of the explosion wave.
The first to be hit was the black starship belonging to Feren Mingyan, which was almost blown away by the explosion wave!
The black starship rolled sideways and fell downward in a spinning stall.
Amid the sound of instrument alarms in the cockpit, Feren pulled the joystick hard and barely managed to pull it up by scraping against the ground.
Large cracks appeared on the starship's floor and side panels, sinking deeply inward, squeezing the cockpit to the point where only half the space remained...
Feren: "What the hell is this?!——"
"I don't know!" Ming Yan screamed hoarsely, "I don't dare to release my mental power! I told you to stop!"
"What do you mean by 'stop fighting'? You must be scared!"
Feren said angrily, "Look again! Mu Boxing is obviously unable to hold on! His mental power is gone! It's all used up! He might die soon due to a mental riot! That was Luce's trick just now! Release your mental power! Aim at the target! See clearly what's going on! Mingyan!——"
At the same time, Mingyu was holding up Mu Baixing's arms. He half-supported and half-carried Mu Baixing, and leaped upwards using the propellers under the powered exoskeleton.
"Rubbish Feren!" Ming Yu was dissatisfied with the effectiveness of his attack and cursed hoarsely, "How come Brother Mu burned away so little energy from the mental cannon! How come this explosion didn't directly blow up your crappy starship!"
Despite this, he had no intention of getting entangled with Feren Mingyan.
Unless absolutely necessary, no normal person would wear a powered exoskeleton to fight a starship!
If Mu Baixing hadn't been injured at this time, he would have used all the dirty words he had learned in his life to grab the man and curse him all day long!
Mingyu cursed in his heart as he leaped towards the injured area without looking back, and landed steadily on an uneven protrusion on the wall of the pit.
"I'm going to fire again!" Feren's arms were shaking with anger. "We can't just let him get away like this!!——"
He almost blew the cliff into ruins.
Feren watched helplessly as the figure below turned behind the huge rocks in the ruins. He could not wait for Mingyan's mental guidance and hurriedly fired again.
Mingyu had already anticipated the opponent's disorganized attack from the energy fluctuations in the air.
Having lost the support of his two secondary guns, the width of Feren's artillery fire no longer made it impossible for him to dodge.
The black artillery fire only grazed Mingyu's raincoat, but the young man took advantage of the wind brought by the energy beam to fly forward rapidly, passing through the gap between the two cracks in the rocks.
“Charge, charge, charge!!——” Cui Xiaoduo shouted, “Brother Lian! Hurry up! Now is the time!!! Kill him while he’s sick! Force them to make an emergency landing!——”
Mulan said nothing, and the starship dived down suddenly, and the hidden cannon hit the tail of Feren's starship.
Feren and Akihiko: "..."
"Mulian!——"
Fei Lun, who was still chasing Ming Yu, was suddenly interrupted and turned around and roared.
Mingyu glanced up at the sky and muttered to himself as he walked forward, "A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of water... Seniors, please let me know if you need anything! Senior Mulian, I will do my best to teach you the history of starship design..."
Mu Baixing was half-hugged in front of him, his forehead rubbing against Mingyu's palm that was protecting his forehead. He barely opened his eyelids as he heard the young man's words mixed with rapid breathing.
“…” The man’s voice was hoarse and weak, mixed in the chaotic noise, but his forehead was against Mingyu’s neck, so the designer could still hear what he said clearly.
“…Mingyu?”
“Here I am!”
Mingyu answered loudly.
He aimed at the landing point, jumped up again, and finally reached the edge of the deep pit.
The rain is getting heavier.
Without the warmth of the Firebird, the rain once again became bone-chillingly cold. Mingyu simply changed his stance, carrying Mu Baixing on his shoulders, then turned his back to the battlefield and ran towards their starship at top speed.
"Bear with it a little longer, Brother Mu! Doesn't the mental realm hurt a lot? It will be fine once we get to the starship!" He said quickly, "There's a first aid kit on the starship..."
Their starship was parked in the sheltered area behind another mountain, unaffected by the battle. Entering the starship, they first injected Mu Boxing with a □□ Divine Realm sedative and a recovery potion...
Mu Baixing did not answer.
"Don't block my way!" Far up in the sky, Feren yelled frantically, "Mulan! Vincent! Yang Haoyuan! What the hell are you doing!"
"We're running out of energy! Feren!" Mingyan shouted, trying to maintain his composure. "We can't keep fighting! The energy cabin is sounding the alarm! We need to land! If we keep going like this, the starship will crash..."
"Don't let Fei Lun pass!" On the other side, Cui Xiaoduo caught Ming Yu's movements and couldn't help but yelled, "Brother Lian! Come again! They're going to take a detour from the left—"
"Don't make things more complicated!" Vincent couldn't help but yell at him, "Don't give orders blindly or interfere with the work of the observer! Mulan! Watch out to the left!"
"Shoot them down! No one will die at this altitude! Let them crash! Brother Lian! One more knife! One more knife!" Cui Xiaoduo refused to shut up, jumping up and down and shouting, "I've wanted to do this for a long time!——"
In the chaos, Mingyu crossed the mountain, disappeared into the shadows, and finally crashed into Mu Baixing's starship parked under the cliff.
The starship was in a state of disarray. Sun Nian's blood and the corpses of the black tideworms hadn't been cleaned up yet, and Mingyu didn't bother to deal with them. He placed Mu Baixing in the driver's seat, then injected himself and Mu Baixing with a dose of mental sedative, and went to look for healing pills.
However, it had little effect. Blood flowed from Mu Boxing's lips, spreading and staining his collar and front. The man leaned back helplessly, his breathing rapid and disordered.
The turbulent mental power in Mu Boxing's spiritual realm did not seem to be quelled by the injection of the medicine.
His eyes, surrounded by blue in black, were blurred and his pupils had lost focus. He looked at Mingyu blankly.
The designer realized from his unusually beautiful eye color that because of Mu Boxing's genetic disease, not only therapeutic devices, but even ordinary mental sedatives had little effect on his body.
Mingyu suddenly froze in place.
Mu Baixing is experiencing a riot caused by a severe overload of mental power.
His breathing became increasingly rapid, while the rise and fall of his chest grew weaker. The man's body began to convulse and tremble, and more and more blood flowed from his lips. Even his skin was cracking due to the violent energy fluctuations within his body...
"Don't……"
Mingyu looked at the blood oozing from Mu Baixing's body, feeling hopeless and dazed for a moment before something suddenly struck him. He suddenly reached out and aimlessly touched the man's waist.
"Did you bring medicine, Brother Mu? Did you?" Mingyu muttered to himself, almost losing his mind. "It's okay, you must have brought medicine. Calm down, I'm sure you'll be fine..."
His cold palms randomly groped through Mu Boxing's waist pockets, and finally found a delicate medicine bottle in the left pocket.
Mingyu was overjoyed and quickly took the bottle in his hand. The finger-long glass bottle had no instructions for use. Mingyu gritted his teeth, remembering how Mu Boxing used to take his medicine. He simply pinched open Mu Boxing's jaw and poured half the bottle of pills into his mouth, forcing it against his jaw to force him to swallow.
"Don't! Please don't..." Mingyu shouted in panic, "Brother Mu...this is too much of a joke..."
His hands were shaking, and he could barely hold the medicine bottle in his hands. Mingyu didn't know what else to do, so he just held Mu Baixing's shoulders tightly to prevent him from sliding off the seat.
The light of artillery fire outside the window suddenly went out.
In the distance, there was a loud noise of a starship crashing.
The sky returned to pitch black. Mingyu forced himself to look out the window.
A narrow, burnt-out, gray starship was approaching from a distance. After a moment's hesitation, the other party discovered their tracks.
With a slight beep, a communication request came from the communication bracelet, which had one bar of signal as the thunderstorm subsided.
"Mingyu?" Cui Xiaoduo's face appeared on the screen. His forehead was covered in sweat, his short hair flying in disarray. He looked excited, as if a long-cherished wish had finally come true. He said, "I see your starship! Mingyu! Can we land next to it?"
