Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting Chapter 130

Chapter 130 - The beginning of the space battle

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Upon flying into space inside the space warship, Lan Xuanyu felt all the pores on his body flare open.

His Spiritual Power merged into the spacecraft’s control system. The controls were like amplifiers within his thoughts, allowing him to sense the situation around him.

The first and foremost requirement of being a space warship pilot was not Soul Power or physical capability, but rather, Spiritual Power.

The advancement of Soul Guidance Technology allowed ordinary humans to become Mecha masters, so much so that they could even pilot space warships through training. But at the same time, the advancement in technology revealed the apparent use of spiritual power. Through special instruments, potent spiritual power could magnify while using soul guidance technologies in different multipliers.

For space warship pilots, the requirement for Spiritual Power was 50 points, which meant that one had to be in the Spirit Connection realm to have the qualifications to pilot an actual space warship.

Why was Yin Tianfan daring enough to allow Lan Xuanyu to experience piloting inside the simulation pod at such a tender age? It was because his Spiritual Power was strong enough and capable of enduring it.

His Spiritual Power of over 200 points had long surpassed the requirement for basic space warship piloting. After three years of never-ending practice, Lan Xuanyu was as familiar with a space warship as he was with his own body.

Nevertheless, his first experience with controlling an actual space warship felt different.

The numerous tactile buttons and levers required greater use of Spiritual Power, and the warship itself received sharper feedback; all were different when compared to the simulation pod.

There was no pain reduction system inside a real warship, causing Lan Xuanyu to experience everything in full. He was able to feel that his response and reaction had become sharper, as though the warship had become even more agile.

When he spread his senses outwards, he was able to perceive the battlefield in the distance, resulting in his distraction and his piloting turning slightly unsteady.

At that moment, both parties on the battlefield crossed paths. 20 mechas suddenly appeared from within the five pirate spaceships and welcomed their 12 mechas. In time, the entire space filled with assaults as both parties became tangled in battle.

It had to be said, Tang Le’s bodyguards were not weak. Not only were the eight of them more reliable in terms of physical strength, but their coordination was also flawless and in no way inferior to the veteran pirates. But four of the bodyguards were less experienced and sustained fatal shots in their mechas. With the disadvantage of having fewer in number, it was only a matter of time before they were completely destroyed.

Furthermore, they were also suppressed by the firepower of the five pirate spaceships.

Lan Xuanyu had just steered his space warship when he was immediately noticed by the pirates. Four mechas split out of the primary team and quickly flew towards him.

On land, space warships were weaker than mechas. But in space, space warships had the advantage, whether it was in terms of speed of firepower. Therefore, sending out four mechas to deal with him was a valid proposal.

Lan Xuanyu was taken aback by the sudden change of the situation. He quickly exercised control over his spaceship and executed his plan as the four mechas approached him aggressively.

He took a deep breath. He had gone through the space simulation countless times. Lan Xuanyu reminded himself to stay calm. He forgot that this was a real battle and instead treated the entire thing as though it was a scenario in the simulation pod.

Both of his hands moved rhythmically as he maneuvered the space warship into a turn, performing a small curve and turning to run.

He took Yin Tianfan’s words to heart—when faced against a mecha, the first thing he had to do was to display his advantage in speed.

Hence, before reaching its maximum speed, a space warship should never attempt to fight. However, once he reached maximum velocity, the mecha would only be in for a beating.

This theory was only appropriate when the mechas and warships were of the same grade, but from this, one could see Yin Tianfan’s absolute confidence in space warships.

Lan Xuanyu had just entered outer space but chose to turn to a run since he had not attained the peak speed. This was so that he had ample space to speed up.

The space warship performed a horizontal drift and turned abruptly. Although the equalizer installed in the space warship was able to dispel the powerful g-force within the cabin, Lan Xuanyu was still affected by the remnant thrust force.

However, Lan Xuanyu was unmoved and operated the thruster to its maximum.

The thruster flames spewed red-hot radiance as the space warship moved faster, violently shooting forward into the distance as though ejected from a catapult.

The g-force produced by the abrupt turn and increase in speed was something no ordinary human could endure. The powerful force caused Lan Xuanyu to be stuck in his seat, but by now, he had calmed himself down as he stared at his enemies with an intense gaze. His senses stretched to their maximum, and he was able to sense the minute changes of the space warship.

By leading the four mechas away, the pressure on the mechas on the other side of the battlefield reduced. But the five pirate spaceships ignored the main battlefield, instead choosing to slightly spread out as they unleashed a barrage of firepower on the small spacecraft.

After more than 10 seconds, Lan Xuanyu’s space warship finally reached terminal velocity. He controlled his spaceship to perform a large arc and flew back towards the enemies.

He had to deal with the pirate spaceships to prevent the civilian spaceship from being destroyed. Otherwise, the space warship would be like rootless duckweed. Space warships were unable to maintain long flights in space and had to dock in a spaceship periodically. Furthermore, his parents were still on board!

The four mechas gave chase without any intention to let go. Upon seeing Lan Xuanyu perform a u-turn, the four mechas increased their speed. They charged towards his space warship from four different directions with their specialized Heavy Soul Guidance cannons.

Four beam rays shot towards the space warship.

Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath. He knew the time to test his skills had arrived. It was a crucial time that would determine if he would come out as a winner or a loser.

Lan Xuanyu did not slow down against the attacks and maintained his high speed. Yin Tianfan had once said that pilots that had to reduce their speed to evade enemy attacks were unqualified pilots. A space warship that lost its momentum was nothing.

There were incoming enemy attacks in the blink of an eye. Lan Xuanyu’s hand suddenly moved rhythmically in a butterfly motion as he performed a series of complicated maneuvers.

The space warship had a defensive shield, but its speed would be affected upon sustaining a certain degree of damage.

The four mechas only saw a blur as the space warship in front of them evaded their attacks smoothly.

Without a need to decrease its speed, the space warship suddenly performed a flip and turned its belly up. Two laser beams missed and shot into space.

This was a high-speed vertical turn. Theoretically speaking, the crux of it was not to reduce speed or have any deviation on the spacecraft’s original route.

The space warship suddenly performed a roll to the left and avoided another two laser beams. It was yet another high-speed single roll that anyone could perform, but to not deviate from its original path so freely and perfectly was not simple at all.

What shocked the mecha pilots, even more, was that after the roll, this warship did not continue flipping in the same direction, but instead performed a reverse flip.

This was complete control over the inertia of the space warship, something that not just anyone could execute! Even at a low-speed flight, it was considered extremely difficult to perform such a feat flawlessly, let alone flying at its maximum speed.

But Lan Xuanyu had done so, and the series of movements resulted in him avoiding all the attacks. The plane warship had already closed in on the four mechas.

They hurriedly brought it back to the institute for hatching. The egg hatched, but it was a baby, a baby exactly the same as a human – a baby born out of an egg.
