The Zerg seemed angry and threw the communicator away. Cheng Dahua followed suit and threw her communicator down as well, but was quickly saved by the staff.
Cheng Anlang whispered to Zhang Mingyu, "They might be about to open fire..."
Zhang Mingyu: "Yeah, don't worry, their technology is too outdated, it's not very useful."
Cheng Anlang: "..."
Just as Cheng Anlang had expected, the Zerg spacecraft flashed a blinding white light, like the pearl oyster from that day. Cheng Anlang said to Zhang Mingyu, "He's about to fire."
"Whoosh—"
The spacecraft suddenly emitted a laser beam, which ripped through the darkness of the universe and was about to blast the spacecraft into pieces in the blink of an eye.
Although Zhang Mingyu's words eased the tension on the people in the aircraft, their hearts were still in their throats. Cheng Dahua's dark head was illuminated by the incoming laser beams, making him look like a statue receiving holy light.
Just then, a large group of aircraft appeared behind the spacecraft. Without any visible movement from them, a huge black hole appeared in front of Cheng Anlang's spacecraft. The laser was swallowed straight into the black hole and extinguished in the void. After swallowing the laser, the black hole also slowly disappeared.
The Zerg cried out, "What's going on! How did a black hole suddenly appear! Ah! What is that?!"
A group of aircraft quickly blocked Cheng Anlang's aircraft in front of them.
Zhang Mingyu: "I have already notified the Star Alliance Transportation Bureau. You will need to take another flight path to bypass them."
"Hmm, good." Cheng Anlang couldn't help but exclaim, "I didn't expect your technology to be so advanced, you can even use black holes so casually!"
Zhang Mingyu hesitated and said, "That black hole... wasn't created by them. The technology is still in the research stage and hasn't been used by the military yet."
Cheng Anlang was a little confused: "If it's not you, then who else could it be?"
"..." Zhang Mingyu remained silent for a long time. Just as Cheng Anlang was about to change the subject, he finally spoke: "It might just be a coincidence..."
Cheng Anlang: This is too much of a coincidence...
Before he could think much of it, the Zerg aircraft opened its door, and a swarm of Zerg flew out to fight.
The Zerg look similar to humans and possess certain special abilities. Zhang Mingyu's subordinates immediately opened their aircraft and piloted their mechs to confront the enemy head-on.
Cheng Anlang watched from behind: "Is it time to start fighting?"
"Gah!"
I want to play too!
The duck pats the exit sign on the aircraft, indicating to open a door.
Cheng Anlang: "It's too dangerous for you to go out."
Zhang Mingyu heard someone say on the other end:
"Let the lizard go with us; it'll be a good opportunity for him to gain some experience."
Luo Sifen usually hangs out with Yu Ya at business galas, so she doesn't need to go to any battlefields and therefore doesn't need to undergo any training.
"Ouch."
Cheng Dahua complained, "Why weren't you invited to come along?"
Cheng Anlang understood what Cheng Dahua meant, and he asked, "How do you jump in space?"
He then asked Zhang Mingyu, "Is it going to work? Are you sure there won't be any problems?"
Zhang Mingyu: "It's okay, we've done it several times already."
"Alright then," Cheng Anlang said to the staff, "Open the door and let them go out for a practice."
As soon as the door opened, Duck and Lizard went out and stood on the flying vehicle.
The mechs fighting ahead spotted them and quickly distanced themselves from the Zerg.
Zerg: "Don't run!"
Just then! Duck spat out a huge fireball, and Lizard opened its mouth, flashing a blinding electric current. The fireball and the current quickly mixed together, and the shimmering fireball, trailing a long feathery tail, ripped through the entire dark universe like a lightsaber. With tremendous force, it rolled larger and larger and instantly rushed into the swarm of insects.
"boom!"
Lightning crackled and illuminated the void, and the heatwave from the exploding fireball spread out in layers. The Zerg were scattered and routed amidst the deafening roar. Those that got close didn't even have time to utter a sound before their bodies melted into the flames and lightning, leaving not a trace. Those a little further away were covered in a gray-black color, as if they had taken a bath in coal.
Cheng Anlang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Amazing!"
"Awooooo!"
Cheng Dahua was unhappy. She tugged at Cheng Anlang's sleeve and said, "I was very good just now, okay!"
Cheng Anlang nodded, his eyes fixed on the battle situation ahead.
Duck and Lizard teamed up to spit out several more electrified fireballs, and only after they had had their fill of playing did they crawl back inside.
Duck exhaled a breath of hot air: So refreshing!
"Gah!"
Let's play cards!
Cheng Anlang didn't intend to see the battle end. Seeing that Ya Ya and the others were about to start playing cards, he instructed the flight crew to re-brake the aircraft along the newly changed flight path.
The staff member exclaimed in admiration, "We never expected you to be so calm even when you encounter the Zerg. We can't compare to you."
Cheng Anlang: Their second-in-command was spit out by Cheng Dahua, what's there to be afraid of...?
