580: Chapter 467 Obstruction 580: Chapter 467 Obstruction The Black Brilliance shook violently, and the people on board were like startled birds, their hearts almost leaping into their throats.
If they couldn’t withstand the attack, everyone would meet their maker, and to say they weren’t scared would be a lie.
Soon everything returned to normal, the energy barrier had withstood the assault, but the operator cried out in panic.
“The energy barrier is disintegrating!”
Li Ruiqi couldn’t afford to care about anything else; he calmly said, “First, destroy those paralyzed defense machines and interstellar fighters…”
Just then, inside the paralyzed interstellar fighters and small defense machines, the control panel inside suddenly cracked open, revealing a semi-circular metal sphere, followed by the lighting up of red electronic eyes.
On the operation screen, countless sets of data popped up.
Followed by a prompt that appeared.
“Intelligence personality download!”
In an instant, the paralyzed defense machines and interstellar fighters sprang back to life and scattered, assaulting the Black Brilliance.
Inside the Black Brilliance command room, Putmi immediately sensed something was amiss and alerted them.
“The adversary has shaken off the interference!
They’re attacking us.”
“How is this possible?
Drones fear interference the most.
Fire the guard cannons!”
Li Ruiqi’s expression also changed slightly.
The guard cannons lining the outer layer of the Black Brilliance fiercely opened fire on the approaching defense machines and interstellar fighters!
One after another, the defense machines and interstellar fighters were blown up and plummeted into the starry sky, but even so, many still managed to get close.
The interstellar fighters opened their weapon bays, and missiles were launched one after another.
Meanwhile, the small defense machines either shot beams of light at the Black Brilliance or rammed into it directly!
The surface of the Black Brilliance continuously exploded, and the massive mother ship kept shaking.
In the control room, an operator urgently reported, “The Black Brilliance’s hull integrity is compromised…”
Li Ruiqi did his best to keep calm; he turned and asked, “How long before the reinforcements arrive?”
“Report, at least thirty minutes!”
The operator below responded with some panic, which under normal circumstances wouldn’t count for much, but now it was fatal.
“Report, the enemy is accelerating their approach, and their auxiliary weapons have locked onto us.”
“How much longer until the enemy’s main cannon is loaded?”
“Calculating, the enemy’s main cannon will be ready in thirteen minutes and twenty-five seconds!”
“Shut down all unnecessary devices and direct the majority of the power output to the thrusters for acceleration.
At all costs, increase the distance, and issue a Level 1 emergency evacuation directive.
Have all civilians prepare for the worst!”
In the three major residential areas of the Black Brilliance, a piercing alarm rang incessantly.
“Level 1 emergency evacuation notice, Black Brilliance is undergoing an attack by an unidentified fortress.
Please enter the sealed refuge passages immediately, and maintain or…”
The ceiling above the entire residential area kept shaking, with the lighting system flickering on and off.
Inside the residential sector, many children were scared and crying.
There was a certain degree of disorder!
One soldier after another shouted loudly.
“This way, this way!”
The residents of the residential area, panic-stricken, ran towards the evacuation passages.
In the midst of space, the Black Brilliance accelerated forward, but regrettably, the Twilight Fortress was doggedly chasing right behind.
Its bulky body, bristling with cannon barrels, fired furiously.
A deluge of missiles rained down, bombarding the Black Brilliance relentlessly.
Although the Black Brilliance kept evading and intercepting as much as possible,
attacks still exploded all over the ship.
In the control room of the Twilight Fortress, the silver Mechanical Man, Canon, stared intently at the Black Brilliance as it fled in disarray, emitting a series of piercing mechanical laughs.
“There’s no escape, soon you will become a part of our Mechanical Sect!”
The thought of soon capturing such a large mother ship and enslaving a wave of fresh blood filled Canon with excitement.
The next second, Canon turned his gaze to the charging progress of the main cannon; it was already at sixty percent.
Canon’s eyes bore into the Black Brilliance.
“Auto-lock in progress!”
“Lock successful, target power zone!”
Without waiting for the main cannon to fully charge, Canon issued the order to attack.
In space, the Twilight Fortress following behind the Black Brilliance adjusted its firing angle.
Its heavy ion beam cannon launched a fierce attack before it was fully charged.
A brilliant red beam sliced through space toward the Black Brilliance.
Inside the Black Brilliance’s operations room, Putmi’s heart skipped a beat, and he shouted loudly,
“Bad news, the enemy’s main cannon has fired!”
Evade now!” ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel{f}ire.net
Li Ruiqi instantly realized his own fatal mistake.
He hadn’t expected the enemy to launch an attack without waiting for a full charge.
“Calculating evasive trajectory!”
“No good, we can’t evade!”
The operator shouted in terror.
Just then, on the virtual screen, the image of a man wearing the uniform of a Major General, with graying hair, appeared.
First Legion’s vanguard General, Kakir, said farewell,
The next second a large escort ship, somehow breaking away from the battlefield, charged to the side of the Black Brilliance, prematurely entering the firing trajectory and using its body to bear the brunt of the heavy ion cannon attack!
In an instant, the large escort ship exploded like spectacular fireworks!
Seeing this scene, many in the operations room had tear-filled eyes as an operator, with a choked voice, reported.
