Chapter 165: Battle!
When that massive vessel with its sleek lines and shimmering dark silver luster...
As they slowly emerged from the far side of the moon, the entire scavenger fleet experienced a momentary commotion.
"What...what is that?"
"What a beautiful ship! I've never seen this design style before!"
The tyrant narrowed his eyes, examining the suddenly appearing new warship with great interest.
Unlike his cobbled-together "junk," this ship is full of the beauty of order and power.
A glint of undisguised greed flashed in his eyes.
"Interesting! It seems this nascent civilization has a little surprise in store."
"Pass on my order: capture it alive!"
"This ship will be my new flagship from now on!"
The atmosphere inside the bridge of the Kunlun was tense and solemn.
Su Chen sat firmly in the central captain's seat, his eyes calm as still water.
Lin Xue, dressed in a crisp uniform, stood beside him as the first mate.
The other seats on the bridge were occupied by the most elite and composed personnel selected from the entire Alliance army.
They were the first generation of starship crew members of Earth civilization.
Although many weapon systems and functional modules of the Kunlun are still undergoing final testing, they have no way out.
"Captain, the enemy fleet has begun to move, advancing in a fan-shaped encirclement formation towards our position!"
The radar officer reported loudly to the commander.
"Activate energy shield, all secondary guns enter free firing mode, main guns begin charging."
Su Chen calmly issued a series of instructions.
The battle erupted instantly in the frigid universe!
Dozens of scavenger warships, in a seemingly scattered but actually extremely cunning formation, surrounded them from all directions.
Colorful energy cannons and solid kinetic energy projectiles trailing flames.
There were even corrosive rays that emitted an ominous green light.
It was like a dense, impenetrable downpour, raining down on the Kunlun.
"Energy Shield, activated!"
The exterior of the Kunlun.
A light blue hexagonal energy grid instantly appeared, completely enveloping the entire warship.
This is defensive technology originating from the Seraphs, and after Su Chen's optimization, its defensive capabilities far exceed the scavengers' imagination.
Countless attacks rained down on the shield, creating violent ripples.
The entire warship was trembling slightly, but inside the bridge, everyone felt as steady as a mountain.
"Shield energy consumption is three percent, structure is stable!" the shield officer reported.
"Well done!"
A suppressed cheer erupted from the bridge.
"Don't let your guard down."
Su Chen's voice promptly calmed everyone down.
"Command the engine room to increase power output to 120 percent. Use our superior mobility to outmaneuver them."
The engines of the Kunlun spewed out dazzling blue flames.
Despite its massive size, the ship exhibits a level of agility completely disproportionate to its dimensions.
Navigating and dodging amidst dense barrages, she resembles an elegant space dancer.
At the same time, hundreds of secondary guns installed throughout the ship began to return fire.
Beams of energy precisely struck the enemy frigates, exploding into bursts of sparks on their shields.
"Main gun charging status?" Su Chen asked.
"Captain, main guns are at 90%... 100% charged!"
"Powered up! Ready to launch!"
The weapons officer's voice trembled with excitement.
The main gun of the Kunlun is not a conventional energy weapon.
That was Su Chen using the authority of the Key of Creation to guide the power of the world.
Combined with the weapon technology of the Seraphs, it was transformed into a unique "Law Annihilation Cannon"!
"Lock onto the enemy's left flank, that modified heavy cruiser."
Su Chen's gaze was fixed on a particularly conspicuous target on the star map.
"emission!"
"emission!"
The bow of the Kunlun.
A huge rift slowly opened, revealing the cannon muzzle inside, which was flashing with countless mysterious runes.
next second.
A gray-white beam of light, which was not pure energy but mixed with the power of spatial distortion, shot out silently!
The beam of light was incredibly fast, hitting the heavy cruiser almost instantly upon launch.
A bizarre scene unfolded.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, no debris scattered everywhere.
That enormous warship, which is over a kilometer long.
The instant you are struck by the gray-white beam of light, it's as if you've been erased from a painting by an eraser.
Along with all its crew members, it was completely and swiftly "erased" on a material level.
They vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed in this universe.
This attack instantly plunged the bustling battlefield into deathly silence.
All the scavengers stopped attacking and stared blankly at the empty space of space.
On the bridge of the "Tyrant" flagship, the sinister smile on his face froze.
He abruptly stood up from his throne, staring intently at the screen, and exclaimed in disbelief, "What the hell is that?!"
"Law-based weapons? How could a nascent civilization possibly possess such technology!"
He finally realized that he might have bitten off more than he could chew this time.
"All warships! Focus fire! Concentrate fire on that flagship!"
After realizing what was happening, the tyrant let out a hysterical roar.
"Break through its shield at all costs!"
A frenzied barrage of attacks began.
The scavenger fleet aimed all its cannons at the Kunlun, attempting to exhaust its shield energy with the most savage saturation attack.
"Warning! Shield energy is rapidly decreasing! Seventy percent... sixty percent..."
The piercing alarm sounded throughout the bridge.
Several small, extremely fast "piercing ships" circled around to the flank of the Kunlun like ghosts.
That was the scavenger's favorite boarding tactic: to break through the armor at close range and rush into the ship to cause damage.
Just as the Kunlun was caught off guard, a clear, cold voice rang out from the bridge.
"Su Chen, let me out."
It is the night's dawn.
She had arrived at the bridge at some point, her eyes, one gold and one purple, were quietly watching the battlefield outside the porthole.
Su Chen turned to look at her, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Be careful."
A silver-white combat suit, specially designed for Ye Xi, automatically covered her entire body.
She walked alone to the airtight compartment on the side.
The hatch opened, and her petite figure floated alone, completely unprotected, in the cold, desolate space.
Facing the several piercing ships hurtling towards them, Night Dawn slowly raised her hands.
Her eyes suddenly lit up with a dazzling light, one gold and one purple.
Left palm.
A blazing, holy light, like a miniature sun, burned fiercely, radiating a sacred aura that purified everything.
Right palm.
A deep black hole, devouring all the light around it, slowly rotated, filled with the magic of destruction and chaos.
She is determined to single-handedly hold off the entire enemy flanking fleet!
