Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 675: Section 670 - No Justice

Seeing the "Gale Team's" four "Sky Falcons" no longer in hot pursuit, but rather pairing up to decrease altitude in a clockwise, large-radius circling motion, covering each other front and rear.

"Minante, you're realizing this now, isn't that a bit late?"

Chen Fei pushed the control stick forward, as the all-metal "Sky Falcon" attempted to join the "Gale Team's" circling trajectory.

The opposing four pilots' combat strength assessments were not balanced; if he remained patient, an opportunity would surely present itself.

"We have superiority in numbers, you won't stand a chance!"

Even if the two sides were friends, with differing stances, Minante's tone at this very moment wasn't any kinder.

"That's not necessarily the case! They aren't your..."

At this time, Chen Fei didn't care if his intentions were exposed.

The all-metal "Sky Falcon" retracted its pair of blade wings backwards, the "gravity" spell's effect reversing, the aircraft plunged straight down, targeting the "Number 4" he had been eyeing for a long time.

"Jiad, he's coming for you!"

"Cover Jiad!"

"Captain, he's coming for me!"

The "Gale Team's" communication channel was in disarray, resembling a flock of chickens under a raptor's assault, completely flustered.

"Stay calm! Jiad, dive! Dive! Full-speed dive! Rumail, protect Jiad's flank!"

Minante shouted repeatedly in the communication channel, trying to stabilize everyone's emotions, which was not an easy task.

The "Gale Team" he led was not the same "Gale Team" that participated in the "Abyssal Gladiatorial" battle; the only local Zilu Continent pilots were Minante and his wingman Midun. The original "Gale Team" captain Hammu was from the Morning Star Continent, and it was inevitable that the initial team would have to split over differing member stances, and even stand on opposite sides.

Minante's new "Gale Team," having newly added members who had joined for a short time, inevitably had unbalanced strengths. He hadn't expected Chen Fei to keenly seize this point, setting up a trap and launching a fierce and fatal blow.

The full-metal "Sky Falcon" with swept-back blade wings trailed two cool condensation streaks, firmly locking onto the panicked diving "Number 4."

5, 4, 3, 2…1!

"Watch out! Jiad! He's close."

Minante watched helplessly as Chen Fei's all-metal "Sky Falcon" momentarily broke the sound barrier, passing quickly like lightning over the lowest "Number 4."

"Captain, I…"

The retracted blade wings suddenly spread, and then quickly pulled up to climb again, preparing for the second round of assault.

On the "Gale Team's" public communication channel, the transmission from "Number 4" abruptly stopped, as the bisected "Sky Falcon" plummeted towards the ground, apparently including the severed upper and lower halves of a human body. Suddenly, the air acquired a tinge of bloodiness.

When a master makes a move, it's often just a seemingly casual strike.

Yet this strike was quite lethal.

"Jiad…"

Jiad's wingman "Sky Falcon" pilot Rumail witnessed his comrade being cut in two, along with the assembled combat aircraft, and immediately felt as if he'd been thrown into an ice cellar, all his hairs standing on end involuntarily.

"Rumail, you need to…"

Minante's voice suddenly rushed into the stunned Rumail's ears, and as he abruptly came back to his senses, he was immediately faced with a pair of narrow sharp edges filling his entire field of view.

This, this is…

The whole world spun, and consciousness faded to silence.

The blade wings, lacking the ability to draw elemental energy from the atmosphere like Light Wings, had become an unparalleled deadly weapon in close-range combat.

"Rumail…"

Minante roared loudly.

"It's wrong to be distracted on the battlefield!"

Chen Fei's voice seemed to mock as he immediately noticed the "Number 3's" disconnection from the state of affairs, clearly affected by the demise of his comrade.

This was the naive behavior of someone who had not experienced brutal combat, and it was also an opportunity to exploit.

"'Rookie,' you're being too harsh!"

Even if they were on good terms, Minante couldn't remain indifferent to the sacrifice of his comrades; he bellowed furiously in the public channel.

"Minante, this is war, not playing house. If the positions were reversed, would you go easy on me?"

Chen Fei responded calmly to the other side.

War has no right or wrong, only life and death.

"I…"

Minante fell silent.

Chen Fei was right, he wouldn't hold back either.

On the battlefield, life and death are fated, even wishing to hold back is akin to joking with one's own life.

"You all go back! I can let you off!"

The all-metal "Sky Falcon" once again climbed to an altitude of over twenty thousand meters, arrogantly overlooking the remaining two "Sky Falcons" like a supreme predator.

"Why should we go back? This is our Zilu Continent people's war, it's our Tessa people's righteous act to overthrow the Silan Dynasty's dictatorial rule, why should we go back!"

Minante yelled furiously.

Chen Fei said indifferently: "What the Tessans of the Zilu Continent have to do with the Silan Dynasty is none of my damn business! Whether you annihilate each other has nothing to do with me."

Whatever righteousness they proclaimed was destined to be a waste, met by his indifference, and indeed, an unpleasant surprise.

"Then why are you even doing this?"

Minante's anger suddenly lost its source, as joining the Righteous Army was also about justice for him, and without the support of greater justice, hatred could become quite a laughable matter.

Having no connection to the situation, Chen Fei appeared here and killed his men.

"Why? Is it because you are attacking a target that has nothing to do with this war, you idiots! The Ground Portal Gate Management Substation on the outskirts of Southern City belongs to the Blue Star Sovereignty!"

Now it was Chen Fei's turn to be angry. The Rebel Army, claiming to be advocates of justice, kept attacking the Management Substation of Blue Star's Dimensional Gate, attempting to take the civilians hosting the expo as hostages.

Fuck, what kind of justice is this!

"Also, I finally caught a terrible Parasitic Species that threatens both the Cangqiong Star Civilization and the Blue Star Civilization, and you fuckers, for no good reason, come charging in making a fuss. What, you want to let the Parasitic Species escape, or are you trying to silence it by killing it? Idiots! The Parasitic Species will destroy both civilizations, it won't matter if it's the Silan Dynasty or the Tessa Dynasty, everyone will die, no one will escape, got it? Justice, fuck your justice!"

Unable to hold back his frustration, Chen Fei started cursing openly on the public communication channel.

He despised those idiots who mistook minor righteousness for greater justice. Compared to the life and death of civilizations, whether the Tessa Empire is restored is utterly trivial, yet the other party was smugly trying to achieve personal self-worth. Isn't that delusional?

"Parasitic, Parasitic Species? What's that?"

Minante caught on to the unusual keywords in Chen Fei's speech.

The Righteous Army's attack on the Gate Management Station was strategical; whether it was an innocent target was not much of a concern, and he had not participated in the attack, but now his mind was full of thoughts of revival, freedom, justice, and glory, of resisting dictatorship and tyranny.

He came to Southern City on a mission to deal with an Assembled Combat Aircraft that closely resembled the Metallic Dragons, only to run into the familiar face of Chen Fei.

If Minante had had to attack innocent Blue Star commoners at the expo, he probably would have hesitated, as attacking civilians could never be considered just, no matter what.

"I am saving the world, Minante. Take your men and keep your distance. Don't mess things up when you can't be of help."

In Chen Fei's field of vision, the convoy from Jiaming Town had entered the coverage of the Dimensional Gate Management Substation's Protective Barrier, completing the escort mission. The "Strong Men Team," rather than resting, immediately left for the next task.

Although the progress of the three teams had completely deviated from the original plan, considering the current outcomes, the results weren't too bad.

"Saving the world, are you joking?"

Right now, the Righteous Army and the army of the Silan Dynasty were embroiled in fierce battle, and suddenly, this guy with a seriously off vibe appeared; Minante was incredulous.

The two sides were busy with their own affairs, yet suddenly, they started fighting each other, which was utterly bewildering.

"It won't be long before the truth is officially announced. You'll find out. Do you still want to continue? I won't show any mercy," Chen Fei warned.

When Chen Fei said he wouldn't show mercy, he truly meant there would be no softness.

Midun, the wingman pilot, said, "Captain, let it go, continuing this fight is pointless."

He could tell that his captain had little will to fight, and more importantly, his own aircraft's air supply was running critically low.

The deaths of the other two comrades were simply because they were outmatched.

The other side was also right—if they had the upper hand, the dead would undoubtedly be their enemy.

Hold back?

Talking about holding back on the battlefield is just a bad joke.

"Hmph! You got lucky! Midun, let's go!"

Minante's emotions were still unsettled, but he made a decisive decision on the spot.

The two "Sky Falcon" aircraft flew away in the direction they had come from, and the temporarily restored communication channel was again jam-packed with various interference waves.

Midun occasionally looked back to see that Chen Fei's all-metal "Sky Falcon" had reverted to the Mechanical Dragon form.

"Midun, he won't catch up."

Minante, however, hadn't looked back once. He believed that Chen Fei meant what he said and wouldn't unethically shoot him in the back.

If the other party dared to ambush, it meant his own judgment was flawed—he had associated with the wrong people and failed to understand them.

"Yeah, he didn't catch up!"

Midun sheepishly admitted that he'd been suspicious without cause.

The Mechanical Dragon became a tiny black dot in the sky, and the ground radar's information indicated that it was reducing altitude without any lateral movement.

"Midun, later on, look into what this Parasitic Species business is all about," Minante said.

His brain wasn't filled with rage over losing his comrades; instead, he wondered about the strange things Chen Fei seemed to be doing.

Chen Fei's sudden appearance on the Zilu Continent of the Cangqiong Star and being on the opposite side of the Righteous Army was plenty strange on its own.

-

The Mechanical Dragon descended into the Protective Barrier of the Ground Portal Gate Management Substation, slowly folding its wings while the Defense Commander immediately came over.

"Hey, 'Rookie'! What the hell did you bring back?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than an invisible and immaterial ripple swept through the air, causing the Defense Commander to furrow his brow on the spot.

"Hiss! ~ What the hell is this?"

Chen Fei rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of an unexplained headache.

Pop! ~

The Magic Array of the "Mind Brand" on the Mechanical Dragon overloaded and collapsed without warning.

The Dimensional Gate Management Substation was in chaos, with everyone turned upside down and dogs leaping over chickens.

"Here it comes again, the Mental Shock!"

"Who's such a bastard?"

"Fucking psycho!"
