Chapter 889: Chapter 179: Despair
“What happened?”
The sudden turn of events on the battlefield left everyone stunned. The attack that destroyed the warships did not come from this battlefield but instead tore through space from a very distant place, bombarding the Mandala Battleship and two escort ships from afar.
The result was the Mandala Battleship’s hull was damaged, its shield collapsed, and it was on the verge of collapsing, while the two escort ships were pierced through.
Within the battlefield, warships were moving, and both the Lucas Star and Baloma Kingdom fleets were calling the Mandala Battleship, trying to figure out what had happened.
However, soon enough, their signals detected a warship approaching this way.
“Detected a giant battleship.” On the main ship of Lucas Star, someone spoke up, and Field’s face changed as he ordered, “Capture the image.”
“Yes.”
Soon, a giant battleship appeared on the screen, its pitch-black hull resembling a monster in the starry sky, with the enormous hull’s front equipped with nine sharp spikes, exuding a menacing aura. The hull’s massive body was like a city but had quite a few damaged areas, seemingly having been attacked.
Behind the battleship, there were sixteen engine systems emitting terrifying blue energy lights.
Some people on Byron Star had seen the Chiyou Battleship before, but it was in the Deep Sea. This was the first time the Chiyou ship appeared before the world.
Field’s face instantly turned ashen. Seeing the Chiyou Battleship’s hull, he seemed to already feel an overwhelming sense of pressure. The previous attack must have come from this battleship.
“Mr. Aragon.” Field connected to the Mandala Battleship and asked, “What is this?”
How could Aragon know? He also wanted to ask what that monster was?
Finally, under the shocked gazes of everyone, the Chiyou Battleship entered the battlefield. It had previously launched a long-range attack to intimidate the opponent.
When the Chiyou Battleship appeared on the battlefield, it directly confronted the Mandala Fleet Alliance. Facing the opponent’s fleet with just one warship, the scene before them was striking. The fleets of Mandala Star, Lucas Star, Baloma Kingdom, and Prins Kingdom mobilized all their warships, all aimed at the appearing Chiyou, feeling an intense sense of threat.
Meanwhile, Byron Star’s fleet realized that their reinforcements had arrived.
Not long ago, the intense battlefield calmed as the Chiyou’s appearance abruptly halted the war.
In Byron Star’s command room, Qiu Yuan seemed to realize something and looked at Xu Mo: “Deep Sea Battleship?”
“Yes.” Xu Mo nodded, and Qiu Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, understanding why Xu Mo wanted to delay time.
The people in the communications department were also particularly excited to see the Chiyou Battleship. Was the war about to end?
On the ground of Byron Star, many people looked up at the screen showing the battlefield. The appearing warship descended like a Grim Reaper, intimidating the entire fleet.
On Lucas Star, countless people looked towards the battlefield. When the Chiyou Battleship appeared, everyone was stunned. Where did this Grim Reaper-like battleship come from?
King Richard naturally saw it too, his face turning grim. Was there still a variable?
Behind him, the ministers of Lucas Star were unusually silent, staring at the battlefield. What would happen next?
On the battlefield, the grand fleet was arrayed across the sky.
At this moment, the Chiyou Battleship’s signal directly invaded all opposing warships, producing a fizzing sound, and a chilling voice echoed from all warships: “Surrender, shut down warship power and descend, all personnel disarm and exit the warship.”
“Who are you?” Field asked.
“Three.”
The chilling voice startled Field and the people inside the warship.
“Two.”
Without giving them much time to think, the icy voice continued counting, not allowing them time to contemplate.
“Charge all weapons, prepare to attack,” Field directly ordered. Without needing further instructions, all warships simultaneously initiated attack modes, locking their weapons onto the Chiyou Battleship.
“One.”
The speaker continued, “Field, you’ll be the first to die.”
After these words, amidst the nine spikes on the Chiyou Battleship, a strong light burst forth. In the next moment, a blinding bolt of lightning appeared in the sky, so intense that it was hard to keep one’s eyes open. This strong light resembled a sharp sword, instantly descending on Field’s warship, which was also the main ship of Lucas Star.
“Boom…”
The blinding beam fell, Field’s warship’s shield activated to its maximum. Within the warship, Field’s eyes were so irritated by the intense light that it was hard to open them. The internal alarms sounded piercingly, and his heart filled with terror. In the next moment, he felt a storm of destruction sweeping in, rushing into the warship’s interior.
“No.”
Field shouted, and in the next instant, his body was directly engulfed. Not only him, but everyone in the command room was swallowed up as well. The warship was pierced through, leaving a massive hole in the center, and then it plummeted downward.
The moment Field fell, Lucas Star was plunged into deathly silence, and King Richard was stunned.
With one strike, Lucas Star’s main ship was pierced through, and Field, the highest leader of this Lucas Star military operation, was killed.
The ministers of Lucas Star also fell into a deathly stillness, feeling a chill down their spines. This warship… was enough to change the course of the battle.
This war, there is a real possibility of defeat.
If defeated… they glanced at King Richard.
What if such a warship were to attack Lucas Star? This was no longer just King Richard’s concern.
On the battlefield.
In the major fleets, a cold voice echoed once more.
“Three.”
“Two.”
“One.”
The mighty fleets surprisingly did not fire voluntarily; the destruction of Lucas Star’s main ship had left them in shock, and with the Mandala having been nearly destroyed earlier, who could withstand a strike from this warship?
“Hiss…”
Another beam of destruction descended, and another warship was pierced and destroyed. That cold voice was like a death sentence.
Three counts, one warship destroyed.
“Three.”
“Two.”
“Fire.” Before the count ended, a roar came from the Baloma Kingdom’s flagship. The Commander of the Baloma Kingdom’s eyes flashed fiercely. As his words fell, the warship fired directly.
The powerful firepower bombarded the Chiyou Battleship, but it flowed with a dark light, and the powerful fire did not even shake the shield of that warship.
The count did not continue, and the Chiyou Battleship aimed at the Baloma Kingdom’s flagship.
“Are you waiting to die?” the Commander in the flagship shouted, seeing the Baloma Kingdom’s fleet fire simultaneously. For a moment, the sky was full of volleys, extremely spectacular, all striking the Chiyou Battleship.
The huge Chiyou Battleship was engulfed in a terrifying energy storm in an instant, a spectacular frenzy of explosions. But when the storm subsided, people were shocked to find the Chiyou Battleship still standing there, its shield unscathed.
This scene had a tremendous impact on the Lucas Star United Fleet. The Baloma Kingdom’s Fleet Commander looked like he had seen a ghost, staring intently at the colossal object in view. Concentrated firepower couldn’t even shake it?
“Such strong defense.” The people of Byron Star and Lucas Star were utterly shocked by the magnificent scene before their eyes, realizing that the war was about to be reversed.
This Chiyou Battleship that appeared was truly the Grim Reaper, far superior to the enemy’s warships.
At the Byron Star Command Center, Qiu Yuan and others showed excited expressions. This starship from the Deep Sea of advanced civilization was too strong, virtually invincible.
At this moment, in the Chiyou’s control room, the host, Lucas, and others were present.
The host glanced at the shield data, showing a mere one percent loss of energy, meaning the enemy’s attack posed no threat at all.
The Chiyou’s shield was called the Ares Shield, named after the warship’s original name. The strength of the Ares Shield was so immense that the enemy’s warships couldn’t even serve as a test of its power; it was just a fraction.
“Lock onto all targets attacking the Chiyou Battleship,” the host ordered after being attacked.
“Locked on,” the Zhi Zi system responded.
“Fire the Heavenly Hammer,” Xu Mo commanded.
“Executing,” the Zhi Zi system announced, followed by a countdown.
In front of the Chiyou Battleship, nine sharp spikes spun, surrounded by bright rings emitting frightening energy as an invisible energy shock wave surged outward.
The Baloma Kingdom’s warship Commander turned pale seeing their attack fruitless, shouting, “Keep firing, attack.”
The Baloma Kingdom’s fleet simultaneously charged their weapons.
But before their attack could be unleashed, in the sky above, from the massive Chiyou Battleship, dozens of light waves burst forth with a deep, resonant sound, causing the sky to tremble.
The next moment…
“Boom, boom, boom…” The Baloma Kingdom’s warships seemed struck by the Grim Reaper’s Hammer, as the warship fronts disintegrated under the horrific shock wave, steadily breaking apart and shattering.
Under countless shocked gazes, the Baloma Kingdom’s fleet collectively shattered. After the shock wave passed, the warships turned into cosmic dust, completely disappearing from view as if they’d never existed.
The members of the Mandala Fleet, Lucas Star Fleet, and the Prins Kingdom Fleet were all stunned as they watched the scene before them. Their hearts pounded incessantly, eyes filled with profound despair.
Not only were they in despair, but many on their planets felt despair as well, like King Richard and Prince Hades.
Prince Hades realized this was a warship from an advanced civilization, demonstrating a civilization’s overwhelming superiority.
The people of Lucas Star watched the screen as one warship intimidated an entire fleet. The Lucas Star Fleet was finished.
King Richard’s crimes would lead to the downfall of the Lucas Star interstellar fleet.
