The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 697 - 690: Times Have Changed

We’re going to attack the Serpent People’s mothership now, and this time, it’s not a desperate suicide charge, not a brave death for dignity. This time, we can truly initiate an attack on the actual Serpent People themselves.

Just thinking about it is exhilarating.

The Ark is still capable of flying because flying requires very little energy. Although the weapons of the Ark cannot be used, distance on Earth is no longer a problem.

Ram looked at Gao Yuan, then at Xinghe, and finally, he turned his gaze to Yang Yi.

"Should we mobilize all our forces?"

"No, quite the opposite."

Yang Yi said gravely, "You need to take the Ark to the mothership and wipe out all the Serpent People inside before another one of their motherships arrives. We now have the means and the opportunity to counterattack, what we lack is time. Previous battles have proved that in combat against the monsters, mechas or Gao Yuan are the most effective. If the Serpent People’s weapons become unusable due to the loss of power, then numbers will be just that, numbers."

Ram asked curiously, "You said ’us,’ so you’re not going, right?"

"That’s right, I’m of no use in this kind of battle, so I have more important things to do. The focus is the other mothership, what I need to do is to make contact with our homeland and have them prepare for a counteroffensive."

Yang Yi glanced at Luo Xingyu, whose face was becoming fervent, and then confidently said, "I don’t believe Shenzhou manufactured only a few mechas. After discovering their effectiveness, I believe Shenzhou has poured all of its resources into producing mechas, and I..."

Yang Yi smiled and then said seriously, "I’ll stay on the Ark, wait for you to break into the mothership, and then I’ll immediately stay on the mothership waiting for you,"

Gao Yuan said with a solemn face, "I think you guys are overlooking something. The Serpent People have already discovered that their mothership here has been destroyed. It would be normal for the Serpent People to come over now, or to launch an attack against us, right?"

Yang Yi nodded, "That’s right."

Gao Yuan continued, "So what if the Serpent People decide to flee?"

Ram suddenly froze, and Gao Yuan continued, "If the Serpent People can detect the Ark, then they must realize that we suddenly have power they cannot resist. When the technological disparity is too great, numbers cannot compensate. We already grasp this concept now, and the Serpent People must as well. But the Serpent People don’t know that the Ark’s energy cannot sustain another attack. So, what if the Serpent People decide to flee?"

Ram said gravely, "You mean, not to worry about the mothership in Djibouti, but to return immediately to Shenzhou to destroy the other mothership?"

Gao Yuan nodded, speaking softly, "Yes, my idea is to attack the intact mothership directly.

Ram seemed quite moved, nodding his head, but Yang Yi shook his head and whispered, "I’ve considered what you said, but I think it’s best to attack the disabled mothership first for the following reasons. First, we know the mothership in Djibouti came from Shenzhou, and the mothership originally over America went to Shenzhou. Why? I think it’s because this mothership has already released all the monsters it could manufacture—there are no more monsters inside it. Conversely, the mothership that was over America has more monsters, and so that mothership went to Shenzhou, which is still resisting."

Yang Yi didn’t need to spell things out clearly, his point was obvious: there are more monsters inside the mothership in Shenzhou.

Gao Yuan nodded thoughtfully after a moment’s consideration, speaking softly, "Makes sense."

Yang Yi continued, "Also, don’t overlook the speed of the Ark. In battles within Earth’s atmosphere, we can now disregard spatial distances. You can completely destroy this mothership here and then rush to Shenzhou quickly. Fighting a mothership that has lost its mobility gives us a chance to understand the structure inside the mothership."

Ram waved his hand, saying, "You don’t need to say the rest. We’ll go attack the mothership in Djibouti first. You stay here and notify home to prepare for battle."

After finishing, Ram pointed at his own head, smiling at Gao Yuan and saying, "Even if the Serpent People think of fleeing, the Ark can catch up! My brain just didn’t catch up; that is, distance and space are no longer the main factors affecting war. Xiao Yuan, you have to keep up with the changes."

It was true that Gao Yuan hadn’t wrapped his head around this turn yet.

Thousands of years of human warfare have left a rich legacy of experience and knowledge. But now, past experience and knowledge are outdated; past experiences can even become mental shackles.

Gao Yuan hadn’t thought that he could move from one end of Earth to the other in just a few seconds, because the concepts of distance and space had been utterly transformed.

Of course, someone like Yang Yi, with a superhuman brain, is an exception. His thinking would never be shackled by anyone.

The Ark is now just a means of transportation. The main force in the attack is the Spark Squad, led by Gao Yuan and Xinghe, with the mechas as the main power.

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Yeah, that’s the reasoning. But what about the 59 reform? Mechas are useless without it!"

Yang Yi smiled and asked, "Didn’t Xinghe just say that this ship is made of flexible, transformable materials?"

Xinghe nodded, and Yang Yi spoke to Axu’s shadow, "Is it possible to load the external energy vehicle into this ship?"

"It is."

Yang Yi spread his hands, then smiled and said, "So now, all our problems are solved. You go attack the mothership, and I’ll contact home. If I can’t get through, it doesn’t matter. We can go straight back home. We’ll use the forces of our homeland as the main power for the attack. Guys, don’t forget, we are only the seeds, but home is where the mighty tree grows."

Gao Yuan felt his line of thinking was violently shaken once more, and Ram slapped his head, cursing, "How could I not have thought of such a simple solution!"

Yang Yi looked at his watch, speaking solemnly, "After redefining the concepts of space and distance, I want home to be ready for the counterattack, mechas, nukes, and anything else that can be used. Guys, defense at the cost of human lives to take out monsters is a thing of the past. Now, all we have to do is take out the other mothership. Please make sure to change your mindset. You’re going for revenge, not to die."

Was Yang Yi’s reminder really necessary?

It was absolutely necessary. Incredibly timely.

Gao Yuan was indeed determined to die. Ram was truly prepared to never return.

But now, Gao Yuan finally understood something.

Even though only a few minutes had passed since the discovery of the Ark, the times had changed.
