Mingfei was reluctant to stay on Satellite No. 8 any longer. After this incident, she paused to consider and decided to report the intelligence to her sect.
"Master... there has been a change in the plan. Our operation was abruptly disrupted by a mysterious Space Fleet, and I am unsure of what to do next," Mingfei gave Wu Tian a brief summary of the situation.
Such an unforeseen event had occurred—it was unclear which power was behind it, stirring the pot. It seemed that wading through this muddy water wouldn't be easy. With the arrow on the bowstring, the Jade Clear Sect had to make a choice. Wu Tian said, "What's the situation with Zana?"
"I and the junior law enforcer have not received any other orders from Zana. All nations have begun investigations concerning this matter and we are currently in the eye of the storm. It will probably be more difficult to proceed with any subsequent actions."
"I understand. You two just observe the changes. The two law enforcers and the twelve elders will soon come to support you. When that time comes, just coordinate with the Zana military forces."
"What!? Even the twelve elders are coming..."
Mingfei's expression became tense. She couldn't understand why they were sending such a large force to investigate the Bizarre warships. Could it be that there was a deeper conspiracy hidden behind the secret force's attack?
No one knew if there was a conspiracy, but Kexiao didn't think it was a coincidence that a series of problems occurred at the same time. Sometimes, the issues needed to be observed from a different angle. First, Feng Yi revealed hidden dangers within the mysterious warship. Right as the nations were exploring, they were attacked by a mysterious force, leading to a swift pursuit by the Blazing Flame Legion, which ended with the loss of two warships and twenty soldiers. Clever, truly clever, and quite fascinating...
It was truly a case of one willingness to strike and another to be struck, a self-directed and performed play. With this, not only were suspicions quickly cleared within a short period of time, but the media storm could also not possibly point towards the Federation, which lost two warships and twenty soldiers.
Unfortunately, nobody was foolish. Upon closer reflection, one would realize that Satellite No. 8 was located at the border between the Federation and Saudi. Other than the Federation and Saudi themselves, no other forces could possibly circumnavigate the public space domain in such a short amount of time and lay an ambush at Satellite No. 8.
As for the space pirates that commonly lurk off the beaten path, they were far from matching the speed of military warships and could not possibly shake off the Blazing Flame Fleet. Therefore, the most likely attackers on Satellite No. 8 had to be the Federation or Saudi. Furthermore, Hugo had declared in the report that the ambush on the speedboat came from the coordinates in the northern part of the galaxy, the location of the Saudi binary stars, which only intensified suspicion towards Saudi.
The Federation managed to silence the world with the loss of their warships and soldiers. This blame-shifting was truly impressive; Saudi got caught with yellow mud in their pants—whether it was shit or not, it had become shit.
As for the Federation's losses along the way, the amount they claimed was taken at face value. At such a great distance, one couldn't even be sure whether the fleet that appeared with Saudi coordinates was entirely fabricated. This frame-up was unparalleled.
But Feng Yi couldn't hide it from Kexiao, though Kexiao was just peering beneath the surface—Saudi had no excuse, they couldn't simply deflect blame. Hugo clearly stated that he had seen the attack, and moreover, they lost two warships. At this point, denials would not only fail to convince anyone but might even seem like a thief crying "Stop thief." Of course, apart from being the focus of public opinion, Saudi wouldn't really lose anything; after all, no one actually caught up with their warships.
There was just one thing he couldn't figure out—why would Feng Yi make such a move for no apparent reason, willing to lose warships just to limit the exploration of the nations? It wasn't necessary. Or was the message secretly communicated by the Federation to all nations not false, and Feng Yi was merely using the above means to prevent the nations from being overzealous?
Layers of fog gradually cleared, and thinking thus far, Kexiao quickly issued an order—to closely monitor the Federation's movements and to report any out-of-the-ordinary activities immediately.
The Mecha Battle Tournament had already entered its latter stages. The battle with "that guy" was tomorrow. Although Kexiao felt confident, he wasn't completely assured. It was time to rest well, to recharge in preparation for the final battle.
The previous night, Xiu Yi and his group had already boarded the shuttle to the Dragon Gate space station and arrived there. The next day, while it was still not yet dawn, the four of them had already woken up. That night, none of them had slept soundly, and Xiu Yi repeatedly contemplated how to face Kexiao, this super BOSS standing at the pinnacle of the world.
After all, he was the one inheriting the will of Revenge Shadow Rider. If he backed down now, he wouldn't have anything to say to the supporters of Revenge Shadow Rider, to the convictions he had been committed to, or to Brother Feng. Thus, Xiu Yi could only confront the battle, even if it meant defeat.
In fact, he never had a chance to win; let alone Kexiao, even facing the early Red Cloak was challenging, not to mention a powerhouse like Kexiao.
In this not too long period of time, Xiu Yi had gradually figured out some of the quirks of the black Mecha, which could be described as a ferocious beast. Despite unrivaled comfort, the powerful drive could make one lose control.
As a second-level bounty hunter, Xiu Yi's peak hand speed could barely maintain 290 KPA. He cherished his Mecha deeply and didn't want to let down Feng Yi's expectations. He had been trying to master the Mecha all this time, but if one were to be completely honest, it was very difficult. Even after numerous attempts, Xiu Yi managed only a preliminary mastery of the black Mecha.
Unfortunately, time waits for no one. In reality, Xiu Yi had only two days to adapt. In this short period, he and his three companions had hurried to the Dragon Gate space station the day before yesterday.
This battle that held the world's attention was about to commence. At this moment, Xiu Yi was still not fully prepared, but when the dawn's early light broke the morning, he steeled his heart and, along with his three companions, embarked on the path to battle.
