Chapter 1478: Crimson Galaxy Suppression Operation (5)

Tracer bullets flashed quickly before his eyes, and ion beams seemed to be rotating, attacking from all directions. Hall had to keep his eyes open to make sure he was aware of the situation up, down, left, and right.

Grabbing the corpse of an enemy magic mecha, Hall used it as a shield to block the 20mm machine gun of a three-machine formation, and then counterattacked with the 40mm rapid-fire cannon in his hand.

Originally, Hall wanted to follow Li Chengxi. On the one hand, he felt safe following him. On the other hand, Hall wanted to learn Li Chengxi's ideas on fighting in complex terrains.

There were no problems at first, until the second wave of enemy aircraft arrived. As the number of enemy aircraft increased dramatically and the density of meteorites around them increased, Hall unsurprisingly lost track of them.

Li Chengxi moved too quickly and there were too many obstacles in the meteorite belt, so Hall was quickly dispersed by the enemy aircraft group.

Abandoning the already riddled corpse of the enemy plane, the three-plane formation attacking Hall did not attempt a dogfight, but pulled up immediately after the attack window ended.

When fighting in the asteroid belt, magic mechas have an absolute flexibility advantage over space fighters. The performance of these space fighters from the planetary defense force is already backward, and it is unwise to engage in dogfights and circles.

Many of the enemy pilots were temporarily brought in to make up the numbers, but before the Swan arrived, they had already fought against the cruiser formations of the 13th and 19th Fleets. The pilots who are still alive are either those who have transformed from recruits into veterans, or are already highly skilled players. The rookies had already died long ago.

Hall wanted to go around to the other side of the meteorite to find a better attack position. At this moment, when she turned her head, she saw the surging engine light falling from directly above, crushing the lead plane in the three-plane formation with one foot. The two wingmen immediately scattered, but were shot into sieves by the beam Balkan cannon.

Li Chengxi emerged amidst the exploding orange flash and flames.

"Something's not right. I saw the Swan fire a blue retreat flare."

Li Chengxi can easily shuttle through the meteorite belt, but even for him, shuttling through the meteorite belt will result in limited vision.

Therefore, Li Chengxi would often fight for a while, then fly above the meteorite belt to observe the situation below, and then go over to fight for a while based on where there were more enemy planes.

This habit allowed him to see the flares, but most of the friendly forces were entangled in the meteorite belt and did not notice it.

Upon hearing this, Hall immediately announced the news in the friendly channel, and other friendly forces around him would continue to pass the news to friendly forces farther away.

Too dense a meteorite population could not only block radar detection, it could also block communications, so this passing-the-parcel method was the only way to notify everyone as quickly as possible.

"Also, there seems to be clutter on my radar, with a lot of red dots appearing and disappearing from time to time. How about yours?"

Hall glanced at the radar:
"I have a lot too, and they seem to be getting closer."

Li Chengxi's airborne radar works differently from the Silver Cyclone, but both radars show the same display...

That's not clutter, there's something really approaching.

The two men immediately flew down from the meteorite where they were hiding, and Hall fired a flare in the direction of the dense red dots.

"That's a crystal life form!"

Each of the purple-red diamond-shaped crystals, about two or three meters long, are moving rapidly through the meteorite belt. Their number is so large that they look like a purple-red tide.

These guys only chase activities that indicate life. In other words, wherever there are living people, they will be their targets of attack, no matter if it is a battleship or a magic mecha space fighter. They are not picky at all.

No wonder the Swan issued the order to retreat. The carrier-based aircraft were completely unable to deal with these guys.

Hall's friendly channel immediately rang with screams and horrified sobs. There were many new recruits in the fleet driving magic mechas. They had already tried their best to deal with the enemy, so they had never seen such a thing. Li Chengxi and Hall were somewhat prepared for this. They had already told the crew of the Swan what they had found on the Silver Gear, but when they really saw this thing coming like a tide, they still felt quite shocked.

The two of them stepped on the pedal almost at the same time, and the engine behind them lit up again with bright engine lights, flying towards the approximate direction of the Swan.

The only good news is that the crystalline life forms are not only chasing the carrier-based aircraft of the Whirlpool Federation, but also the people of the Red Maple Republic Planetary Defense Force.

They won't look at the paint on your body, all living things are within the target of attack.

However, the Planetary Defense Force should have received the news earlier. When Li Chengxi and Hall began to retreat, the Planetary Defense Force's space fighters had already withdrawn first.

"Don't stop! Rapid-fire cannons can't stop them!"

In the public channel, Li Chengxi stopped a friendly mecha that tried to turn around and open fire. Hall threw the four offensive grenades on his waist behind him at once, which more or less slowed down the forward speed of the purple crystals.

The attack method of these guys is very simple collision, but once hit by it, the body will crystallize in an instant, including the driver inside.

The magic mecha has no shield and is slower than space fighters. It has no room for error when encountering crystalline life forms and must not be entangled with them.

The appearance of the GP02 driven by Li Chengxi was very different from that of ordinary magic mechas. Almost all friendly forces could recognize him at a glance. When he shouted in the public channel for everyone to retreat quickly, everyone was very obedient.

Soon the number of friendly troops around him increased from a dozen to twenty or thirty. He gathered the friendly troops and retreated quickly.

But the speed is still not fast enough.

The speed of the crystalline life form is similar to that of a space fighter, but it is more agile.

It feels like a lionfish, which can make sharp turns. Speaking of which, the turning characteristics of lionfish seem to be similar to those of crystalline life forms. It is hard to say whether the royalists referred to them.

But don’t worry about these details for now, just run.

"I'll hold you back for a while, take this opportunity to run, and don't look back."

Li Chengxi suddenly did a backflip and ran from the leader to the end of the team, opening fire at the oncoming crystalline life forms.

Crystalline life forms are very fragile, and a single 20mm cannon shrapnel shot can kill several of them.

It’s a pity that Li Chengxi is not spreading the rockets now, otherwise the effect would be better.

But even so, the GP02 is still heavily armed, and it feels like the machine can fire ion beams or railguns everywhere.

The friendly forces were deeply moved by Li Chengxi's fearless spirit of sacrifice, and Hall even heard someone crying on the communication channel.

Especially when they saw that Li Chengxi's body was submerged in purple-red crystals in the blink of an eye after gaining the most critical few seconds, everyone looked like characters in a tragedy, crying bitterly.

After all, they didn't know that there was no one in the cockpit of Li Chengxi's aircraft.
