Chapter 447: Chapter 118: Rising and Falling, Frequent Incidents_2

“I believe that the power shown by the Insect Race goes far beyond what we are currently seeing. Don’t forget about the potential evolved entities that might exist in the mission world, still hiding in the shadows and yet to reveal themselves.”

The insects surrounding the “Cloud Rainbow” ship were clearly from the Level 5 Nest of the Insect Race.

They have heads similar to humans, but their bodies are scorpion-like.

They are quite different from the insects in the mission world, whose bodies are similar to arthropods.

The Nest Insects and the mission world insects are two different groups.

Sandra had noticed this earlier, but she had her own advantages, so she wasn’t in a hurry to attack or retreat.

She wanted to understand the situation a bit more before deciding on her next course of action.

Upon Link’s reminder, she imdiately corrected her instructions: “Withdraw full speed to a safe area.”

“Yes.”

The Tower Spirit responded and then asked, “The shuttle has returned. Should we accept it?”

“No, evacuate directly.”

Sandra imdiately rejected the idea without any hesitation.

Her four companions had only made brief contact with the Insect Race before they were hit.

The shuttle had been parked alone in the mission world for so long, who knows if the Insect Race had played any tricks on it.

If it returns to the “Cloud Rainbow”, and sothing untoward happened, it would be a problem.

Anyway, a shuttle is not worth much Magic Stone, so it’s not heart-wrenching to abandon it.

Sandra is wealthy and assertive; she doesn’t see this loss as a big deal.

“Does the shuttle have a self-destruct program?”

Link asked from the side, indirectly reminding them.

“Yes.”

Sandra nodded, understanding what Link ant, and then ordered the Tower Spirit, “At the right ti, activate the shuttle’s self-destruct program to give the bugs a surprise.”

“Understood.”

The Tower Spirit responded, while operating the preheated warp engine at full power.

The “Cloud Rainbow”, which had been hovering in the quiet vacuum, suddenly accelerated from absolute stillness to full speed, entering the warp bubble.

Provided there was no obstruction, the “Cloud Rainbow” could leave this star sector in less than one second.

However, it seed as if the Insect Race was waiting for the “Cloud Rainbow” to enter the warp state.

The mont the “Cloud Rainbow” entered the warp bubble, a very thick and brilliant beam of light was emitted from the mission world.

Logically, this beam of light should never be able to hit the warp bubble that is far beyond the speed of light.

But the unexpected always happens against all logic.

After the beam was emitted, even before it touched the warp bubble, it had already taken effect.

The warp bubble quietly shattered.

A booming sound.

Resonated through the interior of the “Cloud Rainbow”.

The interstellar battleship was struck out of warp status.

The warp engine suddenly failed and could not be restarted in a short amount of ti.

The “Cloud Rainbow” lost a set of unconventional power sources and was left with only the conventional engine and a set of jump engines.

Although it would not be completely immobilized, it had lost perfect maneuverability.

“Humph!”

At this ti, the round-faced youth turned his face towards Link, “If you don’t understand the situation, don’t talk nonsense. Now we’re in trouble, aren’t we?”

He was trying to shift all the bla onto Link.

Link remained silent.

From the current outco, he indeed had to take the bla.

It was his suggestion for an imdiate withdrawal that led to the destruction of the warp engine by the long-planned attack of the Insect Race.

However, Link thought differently.

He was actually relieved that he had made that suggestion, which led to the Insect Race launching their long-planned attack.

If the interstellar battleship had not been in an undetectable warp state and had been directly hit by that bizarre beam of light, it would surely have been more than just damage to the warp engine.

The damage would have been much worse!

Sandra thought the sa way.

She recognized that beam of light.

It was the Insect Race’s version of the Light of Annihilation.

When fully unleashed, one Light of Annihilation could turn an entire planet into dust.

Its power was much greater than the Star-annihilating Cannon, which despite its na, could only make a large hole in a star.

If the “Cloud Rainbow” had taken the full force of the Light of Annihilation, it might have barely survived, but it would have been left with severe damage, impairing many functions.

Now, by so stroke of fate, the Insect Race traded one Light of Annihilation for a set of warp engines. It was a worthwhile exchange!

“Retaliate with full force.”

Sandra ignored the warp engine and the complaints of the round-faced youth and gave her cold order.

Things were different now than they were before.

Previously, when the situation was unclear, it was indeed best to retreat.

However, now was the perfect mont to strike when the bugs’ Light of Annihilation was in its cooldown period.

To weigh the might of the bugs and test whether it’s necessary to retreat so hastily.

Under the command of the Tower Spirit, the “Cloud Rainbow” released all its firepower, attacking the Insect Race army that surrounded it from all sides.

The main gun began to charge, aiming at the Nest.

In an instant, a full-power Star-annihilating Cannon was ready and then fired.

The Star-annihilating Cannon, which was much thinner than the Light of Annihilation but still had considerable power, crossed the vast distance between the “Cloud Rainbow” and the Nest at the speed of light and directly hit the Nest.

The aftermath of the first shot had not yet subsided when the second and third shots followed.

Since the fighting had begun, they were going all out.

Under the fierce firepower, except for the Nest that withstood three Star-annihilating Cannons without any damage thanks to countless layers of bug mucus coating it,

The Insect Race army that surrounded the interstellar battleship on all sides suffered severe losses in the blink of an eye, with its numbers reduced by more than half.
