Chapter 878: Saving Soaring Cloud Sect
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Following Z8-001’s order, all the Androids came forward and got equipped with the planet Namek individual weapons. As they had the relevant data about these weapons, using them would not be a problem.
Soon, the Androids were armed.
“Younger brother Jiang, what are these things?” Bai Wanli asked. Although he had just heard Jiang Fei shout the word “weapons”, he could not understand these planet Namek equipment at all.
“This is a technological weapon. You don’t know how to use it anyway, don’t bother.” Jiang Fei waved his hand. Although these weapons had the potential to reach intermediate Level 4 or even advanced Level 4 at full power, these martial artists had never even touched a pistol before. These high-energy weapons were even more difficult to understand and maneuver. It would be worse if they accidentally hurt themselves or other martial artists.
Moreover, these weapons were so limited that there was not even enough to arm all the Androids. So, they could not be distributed to those low-leveled martial artists.
“What do we do next?” Feng Xuanyi asked. Although he was eager for Jiang Fei to lead them and rescue the main force of Soaring Cloud Sect, it was now obviously a trap set up by the Mutants. If he wanted to rescue his sect, he would put everyone at great risk. So, Feng Xuanyi could not bring himself to say it!
“We have to save them!” Although Jiang Fei was unhappy with Ye Tianshun and Ma Xuantong, Soaring Cloud Sect was not a small force. If they allowed Soaring Cloud Sect to die just like that, it would be a huge blow to the Chinese Martial Arts Alliance, both in terms of overall strength and morale. This would greatly reduce the strength of the Martial Arts Alliance!
“Thank you so much!” Chen Xuanming and Feng Xuanyi both knelt on the ground and bowed to Jiang Fei.
“Let’s set off!” Jiang Fei waved his hand and led the martial artists to the rescue. However, after the martial artists had run a few hundred meters, they realized that the Androids had not moved!
“F*ck.” Jiang Fei slapped his forehead. These Androids were not martial artists. They would not listen to him at all. Although he had just armed them, if they did not cooperate with him, did that mean his efforts were for naught?
“Can’t you see that the main force of the Mutants is approaching us? Come and fight the enemy with me!” Jiang Fei shouted at Z8-001.
“This task has not been authorized!” Z8-001 instantly rejected Jiang Fei’s request. His task was to defend the alien wreckage. So, without authorization, he would not leave this position.
“F*ck! How annoying! Contact Qin Tian!” Jiang Fei arrived beside Z8-001 in a few steps.
“Confirming permission… confirmation pa.s.sed!” As Jiang Fei was the leader of the military’s allied army, the Android leader had no right to refuse if he asked to contact Qin Tian.
Soon, the communication with Qin Tian was connected and Qin Tian’s voice came out of the loudspeaker attached to Z8-001’s shoulder.
“Some of us are now being chased down by the Mutants, and I need the Androids to cooperate with us on this rescue mission!” Jiang Fei said to Qin Tian.
“Hmm… will this result in the alien wreckage being taken away?” Qin Tian was a little hesitant.
“If the alien wreckage is taken away, we can still get it back, but if you don’t let these Androids cooperate with us on this rescue mission, we’ll pack our bags and leave now!” Jiang Fei immediately threatened Qin Tian.
“Err…” Qin Tian was speechless after he heard what Jiang Fei said. At that moment, he had no idea that Jiang Fei had armed these Androids. However, it was useless even if he knew. After all, these Androids could not stop the attacks of the Mutants. Currently, the martial artists were the main force that could defend the alien wreckage. So, he definitely could not let these martial artists withdraw from the battlefield.
“Okay!” After thinking about it, Qin Tian issued an order to Z8-001. “I’m temporarily authorizing Jiang Fei as the full commander of this rescue mission. You and your Special Task Force subordinates are under Jiang Fei’s commands in this mission!”
Qin Tian had no other choice. Jiang Fei contacted him very urgently. He did not have time to understand the specific situation on the battlefield. He was afraid that the martial artists would really leave out of anger if he did not a.s.sist with the rescue mission. So, he could only give Jiang Fei permission. This way, regardless of whether the rescue mission was a success or not, Jiang Fei and the other martial artists would have no reason to blame the military.
“Authorization confirmed!” Z8-001 immediately accepted the order.
“Z8-001 leading the Z8 Special Task Force reporting to our new commander!” After ending the communication with Qin Tian, Z8-001 and the Androids under his lead temporarily became Jiang Fei’s subordinates.
“Okay! Let’s go!” Jiang Fei was overjoyed at this moment. He originally thought that Qin Tian would just make these robots cooperate with him. He did not expect Qin Tian to actually give him the entire command over these Androids. Now, it was way easier for him to use these Androids as cannon fodder!
After obtaining full commanding authority, Jiang Fei led around five or six hundred martial artists and more than four hundred Androids and went straight toward Soaring Cloud Sect’s escape route.
As Jiang Fei and the others had encountered some delays, the people from Soaring Cloud Sect were now already very close to them. In less than five minutes, Jiang Fei would meet these people.
“Oh! Thank goodness! We’ve finally met some reinforcements!” When the people from Soaring Cloud Sect saw a large number of martial artists appear in front of them, they instantly felt calmer.
“Ah! Leader Bai! Taoist Master Ganyang! Thank G.o.d you’re here!” The leader Ye smiled.
“Sigh.” Jiang Fei had no other response to give. Although he was unhappy with Ye Tianshun, everyone from Soaring Cloud Sect looked extremely pitiful.
Ye Tianshun and everyone else from Soaring Cloud Sect were covered in sweat and dust and they looked exhausted. They were all out of breath from running. They were a group of martial artists, but they looked more like refugees who had fled their homes.
“Elder Ye, where is leader Ma?” Bai Wanli carefully looked through the group of Soaring Cloud Sect martial artists, but did not find Ma Xuantong!
“Sigh! He… he died in the battle…” Ye Tianshun said sadly.
“What!?” Even Jiang Fei was shocked. Who would expect that the head of the top martial arts sect would actually die in j.a.pan?
“Captain! The Mutants are approaching!” 0541 came with a warning!
“Mmm!” Jiang Fei nodded. As the people from Soaring Cloud Sect were being hunted down, the Mutants behind them would soon arrive!
“Oh no! It’s an ambus.h.!.+” The Mutants’ bait put up quite a good show. After they saw a large number of martial artists, they stopped in their tracks. Then, they turned around and ran!
“Leader Bai, Taoist Master Ganyang, help me kill these abominable Mutants!” Ye Tianshun shouted as he led Soaring Cloud Sect and chased after the Mutants. He was like a stray dog that suddenly found its owner again. He felt like he had support again, which immediately emboldened him and lifted his morale.
