The war today had proved that he was right. The machine man wanted to control the area of 2000 light-years, and all the resources planets of the mercenaries were in this area. The mercenaries would never give up all their resources and let others bully them if they didn’t fight for justice and freedom. They would rather die than surrender! Emerald was very proud when she thought about this. She realized that she liked that fierce and arrogant man inside Patrick, even though he could be crazy sometimes. “Commander! There are fighters attacking us again!” The operation officer suddenly shouted. All the people looked at the satellite cloud photograph, and a crowd of signals had appeared again on the screen! Emerald was astonished when she looked at the aerial image.Black fighters, which were smaller than blood hawks with black bodies and streamlined shapes, filed out of the fortress. They suddenly approached the human fighters in a neat formation, but they didn’t shoot one bullet. What were they going to do? Emerald felt ominous and sensed a chill atmosphere when she saw the black fighters. “Disperse the group! Shoot freely!” Patrick shouted. The strikers of the two armies soon met each other, and the black fighters fought intensely in the silent space! At this moment, the excellent pilots of the Alliance and the mercenaries didn’t need to hide their true power. They drove the fighters into space like lightning and attacked the enemy without fear, even though their enemy was a bunch of machines. Something unexpected suddenly happened! The officer who was in charge of checking the satellite cloud photograph made a sound, and he saw that the signal suddenly began to glitter while they were moving toward them. Emerald stared at the image, and the black fighters were a long distance from them, but suddenly they leaped to the center of the image! The fighters were the most surprised when they were fighting with the machine fighters! They had aimed at the fighters and moved fast toward the enemy fighters, and the navigational system had made the accurate calculation and prepared to blow up all the enemies. But the target suddenly disappeared. However, they saw many black shadows leap toward them at an unbelievable speed! Yes, they leaped in a way they never saw before. The fighters left some noncontinuous shadows, and the black fighter only appeared in several coordinates and then disappeared. They were too fast to be aimed at. The process was so fast that they couldn’t believe it. When the pilots saw clearly, they realized the black fighters had leaped to them already. They shot them with strong firepower immediately. It was meaningless to turn around or fight back in such a short distance. Many pilots didn’t even find the enemy fighters behind them. The firepower was like stars in the sky. In this tragedy, the Cheetahs, Blood Hawks, and Wild Kittens were the shooting stars falling from the sky! “Rescue ship!” The deputy director shouted, though there was little opportunity that those pilots were still alive. Emerald couldn’t believe what she saw because this was technology that humans had never seen before. It took 15 seconds to start the engine and prepare for leaping for the most advanced fighters of humans. Besides, they needed more time to type into the new coordinates between two leaps. But the machine man could leap in a short distance with fast speed! This was meaningless in interstellar travel, but it was scary, like a ghost in a battle! She looked at Patrick in astonishment. He was standing there straightly, but his face was dark as a cloud, and his eyes were filled with anger. Only after several minutes did more than one-third of the fighters fall off, and more fighters were destroyed at a faster speed! At this moment, the chief technical officer Yvonne Williams stood up in surprise, “Commander, the defense system on the ground was invaded!” Emerald understood what it meant that the defense system was invaded. Now the machine man could attack the planets without no obstacles, and they could even control the bombs to aim at the humans in space, then they could even invade the commanding system through the ground system. Now humans had enemies in front and rear! Patrick’s face was as cold as ice, and all the people in the commanding center were looking at him. Finally, he raised his head and looked around silently. “All the fighters now retreat.” Then, he said in a low voice, “All the fortresses and warships should cut off the network and the radio communication. Leap to the emergency coordinates in thirty seconds.” No one made any sound. “Now!” Patrick shouted. The people in the center started to move as if they had just woken up. “Patrick! Are you leaving?” Taron Locke said in astonishment through the communication channel. Patrick picked up the phone and said, “We will lose the war.” Taron was furious, “Are you going to leave the five planets with no defense power to the machine man?” Patrick’s expression didn’t even change, “We will be dead if we stay. We have to maintain our power so that we can change the situation and save more people.” Taron kept silent for a while and finally calmed down, “You are right.” Emerald looked at Patrick’s side face and watched him clench his fist silently on the table. Emerald felt her heart ache so much that she couldn’t say anything. He was totally right about the retreat. They would definitely be destroyed if they kept fighting. It would be such a humiliation for him to retreat and admit his failure. Besides, they had already gained the upper hand with excellent strategy and commands but lost because of the leading technology of the machine man. She lowered her head and looked at the screen. Many black fighters approached them like a tide. Then a silver light flashed by, and she felt the fortress trembling. All the people were going to fall down. She was prepared for it and grabbed the chair. With her hands covering her stomach, she couldn’t say anything now. Emerald was woken up by the baby in her belly. It kept moving as if it could also feel the difficult situation here. She was in a rest cabin, which was not far away from the commanding center. She couldn’t sleep now, all thanks to the baby. It had been only two hours since they leaped to this galaxy.
