Chapter 3013 The Last Supre Battle Fortress
With the intrusion and destruction of the Giant God Soldiers, especially the destruction of the enemy’s defense array, the spiritual shields on the surface of the two supre fortresses imdiately dimd, revealing shocking holes that looked like rotten black spots.
The storm-like attacks beca sparse, too. One turret after another was demolished by the giant soldier gods rcilessly.
The giant soldier that Lu Qingchen took away did not show up in the battle. There was barely any force inside the two supre fortresses that could stop Ding Lingdang and the other experts. They pierced through the plate armor and the cabin walls one after another as if they were tearing apart paper after paper.
“The two supre fortresses have been completely suppressed by us! Ding Lingdang shouted in the communication channel, not entirely satisfied, “The combat ability of the enemy is much weaker than we imagined. So far, we haven’t found a single Giant God Soldier of the enemy, nor have we found enough crystal suits, just like Lu Qingchen took away 50% of the combat ability of the two supre fortresses in advance!
“Careful.”
Li Yao reminded him, “I have a vague feeling that sothing is not right. There’s no reason for Lu Qingchen to push out the remaining two supre fortresses for nothing after losing two of them in the collision of heaven and earth… Be careful that he turns the ‘Battle Fortress Phantom Sea’ and the ‘Sharpen Gold Fortress’ into powerful bombs and activates the self-destruction system of the supre fortress, hoping to perish together with you!” “I know. I won’t let him.”
Ding Lingdang burst into laughter. “The Supre Battle Fortress is not a real bomb after all. The so-called self-detonation system is not designed to kill the enemy on a large scale. Even if Lu Qingchen detonated all the fuel and ammunition of the two Supre Battle Fortress, the blast would not have been able to travel far in the vacuum. The radiation and the high-energy particle streams alone would not have been enough to deal serious damage to the Giant God Soldier.
“Sacrificing two Supre Battle fortresses for nothing just to cause the ‘skin injuries’ of dozens of Giant God Soldiers? Is Lu Qingchen that stupid?”
“Rest assured. We will not enter the core activities of the two supre fortresses, especially their arsenals and fuel tanks. We will keep a safe distance from them. Whatever tricks Lu Qingchen has up his sleeve, we will cruise on the surface of the supre fortress and knock out its firing points and defense arrays one by one. “When all the firepower points, turrets, defense arrays, and power units on the surface of the warship have been destroyed so that it is unable to attack, dodge, or run away, we will retreat imdiately and let the warship concentrate its fire from a distance, slowly wearing down its defense. However thick its armor is, it won’t be able to resist for long.
“The only problem right now is that the battle between us has disrupted the balance of the spiritual energy. The torrents of teoroids and the interference of the magnetic field seem to be even more furious and disordered, as if… an unprecedented thunderstorm is brewing. Is this Lu Qingchen’s purpose, not to rely on the two supre fortresses but to annihilate us with the power of nature so that we will suffer the sa fate as the ‘Fortress of Earth’ and the ‘Fortress of Fire’?
Li Yao thought of sothing. It was the only possibility.
Otherwise, with the incomplete combat system of the two supre fortresses, which did not even carry any Giant God Soldiers, they would be no match for the hundreds of Giant God Soldiers in the exploration fleet.
Lu Qingchen was well aware of that.
Then, what if he borrowed the strength of ‘Ancient Thirteen’? For example, he could create another collision of the heaven and the earth on the ‘Ancient Thirteen’, which would crush the ‘Ancient Thirteen’, whose structure was very fragile in the first place, and set off a tide of matter, magnetic field, radiation, and high-energy particle streams.
Theoretically speaking, it was indeed a surging tide that could engulf the entire exploration fleet and all the Giant God Soldiers.
The real question was, how could Lu Qingchen blow up ‘Ancient Thirteen’, a satellite more than five thousand kiloters in diater?
Unless Lu Qingchen had the ability to drill a hole in the crust of ‘Ancient Thirteenth’ in advance and fill it with an astronomical number of crystal bombs, it would be impossible for him to blow ‘Ancient Thirteenth’ into pieces during the explosion. It was impossible. Lu Qingchen had only arrived seven to ten days ago. He had neither the ti nor the crystal bombs to carry out such an absurd strategy. Even so, with Li Yao’s reminder, Li Linghai still increased the surveillance between the battlefield and ‘Gu Thirteen’ to ensure that no anomalies were overlooked.
The astronomical paraters of the stone belts —the speed of the teoroids, the density of the cosmic dust, the intensity of the electromagnetic interference, and so on-were all under high surveillance.
As of now, although the intensity of the interference and the density of the cosmic dust had caused significant damage to the spiritual shield and the power unit of the starship, it was still bearable.
Lu Qingchen’s two supre fortresses, on the other hand, gradually slowed down and started spinning in an irregular pattern. It was obvious that Ding Lingdang and the other Giant God Soldiers had blown up the main power units, resulting in the imbalance of power output.
The two supre fortresses were like hippos and rhinos whose legs had been broken. No matter how thick their leather armor was, how powerful their impact was, and how sharp their front teeth and horns were, they were dood.
Bright fireballs were popping up on the surface of the two supre fortresses at almost the sa ti. Even the last bit of their spiritual shield, which was as thin as a cicada’s wing, was gone, revealing their pale and twisted plate armor.
Cheers were echoing inside the communication channel. It turned out that Ding Lingdang and the other experts had successfully completed the task of breaking the main gun, the main defense array, and the main power unit.
In the next mont, although the exploration fleet was small in size, the agile, fast-firing attack starships could swarm forward like piranhas and tear apart the two paralyzed giants.
But Li Yao was frowning harder and harder. The ugly, malicious, deep, and crazy face of Lu Qingchen popped up in his head again.
“Loud thunder, small rain. Lu Qingchen, oh Lu Qingchen, did you spend so much ti and effort to set up such a trap at the cost of two supre fortresses and countless puppets just to buy us more ti?” Li Yao felt that it was impossible.
Lu Qingchen was soone who would summon all his will and wisdom to fight to the end even when a wisp of his remaining soul had been captured by ‘Fuxi’. How could he declare his abandonnt with such a suicidal, idiotic tactic?
Where was the Supre Battle Fortress and the ‘Withering Wood Fortress’ hidden?
If Lu Qingchen had already entered the Tomb of the Supre Emperor, there was no need for him to bring such a huge fortress with him. Therefore, was the fortress hiding sowhere to ambush them?
However, the Supre Battle Fortress could not reverse the situation even if it joined the battlefield.
So, so—
Cold sweat was appearing on Li Yao’s forehead.
“Did you find any abnormal high-energy reactions between the battlefield and the ‘Ancient Thirteen’? I an, traces of the ‘Withering Wood Fortress’?
He raised his voice and asked Li Linghai.
“No. We’ve sent out almost all the crystal caras to monitor every inch of the space between the battlefield and the ‘Ancient Thirteenth’. Even if a starship is hiding sowhere, we will still find it, not to ntion the enormous star fortress.
Li Linghai’s voice was full of confusion and uneasiness, too. “It was a weird battle. Lu Qingchen’s traps were too simple and weak. Was that all he could do about the five supre fortresses, or…”
Right then, they both heard the earsplitting alarms.
Discovering the unusual super-high-energy reaction, the last fortress showed up, but it was not in the dense teoroid belt in front and behind them, nor was it in the dark vacuum between the teoroid belt and the ‘Ancient Thirteenth’. Instead, it was in the space between the ‘Ancient Thirteenth’ and the ancient star, which was closer to the gravitational ring of the ancient star.
In the fierce battle a few hours ago, everybody’s attention had been attracted by the ‘Fortress Phantom Sea’ and the ‘Fortress Sharp Gold’. Even Li Yao and Li Linghai, who could sll that sothing was not right in the battlefield, had spread all their attention between the stone belts and the ‘Ancient Thirteenth’. They were worried that Lu Qingchen was planning to make use of the ‘Ancient Thirteenth’, but none of them paid any attention to the side of the ancient giant.
It was not until this mont, when the ‘Withered Wood Fortress’ released its strongest spiritual energy and spurted out magnificent exhaust flas thousands of kiloters long, that its high-energy reaction was detected by the exploration fleet.
Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!
Countless monitoring crystal caras turned to the direction of the ancient star and captured thousands of pictures from various angles, assembling a soul-stirring and unbelievable scene.
The ‘Withering Wood Fortress’ was the weirdest of the five supre fortresses in the first place. It did not seem to be made of tal. Instead, it seed to have been refined by the Kuafu Clan in the prival era with vines as thick as boas on the surface.
But right now, the ‘vines’ had been embedded into a giant teoroid and tied the teoroid to the fortress.
The distance was too far for him to analyze the diater and mass of the teoroid. But judging from the comparison between it and the Dry Wood Fortress, the ratio of the two was at least ten to one. The teoroid was ten tis larger than the Dry Wood Fortress. It was not a teoroid at all but an asteroid!
Since the very beginning, the Dry Wood Fortress had been ‘bound’ to the planet. It had been floating in the periphery of the ancient star’s gravity circle quietly. It had even entered the ancient star’s gravity circle and was slowly falling toward it. Since the surface of the Dry Wood Fortress was covered in a lot of exotic materials that were neither tal nor iron, it was very difficult to be detected by tal probe magical equipnt. Also, with such a large teorite as cover, nobody had expected that it would be hiding in this place.
It was not until the ‘Sharpen Gold Fortress’ and the ‘Phantom Ocean Fortress’ jumped out of the darkness and attracted the attention of more than 90% of the firepower, computational ability, and probe magical equipnt of the exploration fleet that the Dry Wood Fortress activated the main power unit and spurted out the strongest exhaust flas, pushing the teorites ten tis larger than itself to accelerate toward the ancient giant!
