Chapter 1067: Chapter 581: Furyfla Extinguished_2
However, he dared not trust any promises made by the Alliance.
The hatred between both sides was too deep and too nurous, and it was mutual.
The Furyfla had once destroyed the Phoenix, and had confronted the Alliance alongside the Dragonhawk; the Alliance and the Phoenix had also savagely crushed the Furyfla. The previous Battle Group Leader, Erso, who was deeply loved by his battle brothers, had fallen at the hands of the Phoenix…
Politos could only promise himself to remain rational, willing to endure all humiliation, but he couldn’t guarantee that each mber of the battle group thought the sa. If just one Fury Fla Warrior, after surrendering, couldn’t swallow his pride and acted out, it could easily give the Alliance a pretext for a massacre.
From the Alliance’s perspective, it wouldn’t trust the Furyfla just because they surrendered. Would they dispatch them for critical missions? How could they dare? What if betrayal occurred again at the last mont?
If Politos were in Gu Hang’s position, he believed he would accept all surrender conditions from the Furyfla, then secretly imprison the entire battle group and have them executed without public knowledge.
For this very reason, he did not dare to surrender.
He resolved to hold out on the ground, in the unearthed bunkers, and also in the deeply buried tunnels.
All he could see was darkness, devoid of any future.
Yet, even so, he had to hold out in this darkness, even if the final outco remained unchanged.
…
Just as Politos predicted, the Alliance’s assault on Mirage Moon began quickly.
Participating were only the Zhuge-class Aircraft Carrier, three Battle Cruiser-class ships, and the Bloodshark Fleet.
The rest of the fleet had gone for repairs.
Though the number of ships was small, the most pivotal figure—Gu Hang—was there.
Everything the Furyfla had prepared and worked for was completely devastated in just monts.
The planet’s outer defensive systems were the first to fall under attack. The Furyfla Fleet that ventured out according to plan deployed small-scale ships for harassnt.
The Alliance decisively pursued them.
The Furyfla Fleet scattered to escape. The Alliance also split up to chase them.
The three colossal ships that had been hidden in the shadows hoping the Alliance would hold back now faced a dilemma.
You’re not playing by the rules!
If they did not reveal themselves, they would only watch as the Alliance wiped out all the small and dium-sized ships that had gone out.
Though the value of these ships wasn’t too high, after two or three rounds, the fleet would be depleted.
But if they revealed themselves… the Alliance wasn’t unaware of their presence. They dared to disperse their forces and pursue them—surely, they’d prepared for this eventuality.
After deliberation, they decided to erge.
All three colossal ships revealed themselves, blocking the Alliance Battle Cruiser Ronglin right in its path.
This was an excellent opportunity for a strike, but the three colossal ships still acted with extre caution. They did not recklessly charge at the outnumbered enemy but instead chose to keep their distance, aiding their own ships and intending only to force the Ronglin away.
Even with such prudence, they ran into trouble.
The Ronglin was utterly unfazed.
It ceased its pursuit of small ships, but it did not retreat either. Instead, it relied on the speed and agility of a Battle Cruiser to maneuver at the edge of the firepower threat zone.
Its posture was unambiguous—tracking them, shadowing them, ensuring they could not escape until reinforcents arrived that could collectively annihilate this lone remnant of traitorous naval forces.
The Furyfla Fleet, left with no alternative, was forced to go all in, advancing on the Ronglin to eliminate or drive it away.
The Ronglin began to retreat.
The tug-of-war comnced between both sides.
When the ships had pulled apart to a certain distance, where it beca clear that the ‘Starfire Wings’ Battleship could not catch up in ti, the Ronglin suddenly made its move.
It turned its bow and launched a fierce barrage at the ship originally belonging to the Alfonso Sect.
Simultaneously, that ship’s Void Shield suddenly vanished.
At the sa ti, another Furyfla flagship, ‘Fire of Triumph,’ went silent.
Without a doubt, this was Gu Hang and the Phoenix taking action.
The remaining two hundred Fury Fla Warriors aboard the ‘Fire of Triumph’ were powerless to resist. The Think Tank couldn’t stop Gu Hang from tearing through the Void Shield, and instead had its head exploded by Gu Hang; the Interstellar Warriors stood no chance against the Phoenix. Only three hundred Phoenix warriors teleported onboard, outnumbering their opponents by rely 50%, but their individual combat capabilities were vastly superior; the remaining Battle Group Auxiliary Army aboard the ship was being overwheld by the relentless, fearless spirits…
By the ti the ‘Starfire Wings’ Battleship finally arrived at the battlefield, the Alfonso Sect’s last surviving Battle Cruiser was ablaze with fire across its hull, clearly heavily damaged; the firing system on ‘Fire of Triumph’ was visibly weakened, signaling that inside the ship, the conflict had tipped overwhelmingly in favor of the Alliance.
Under these circumstances, the ‘Starfire Wings’ did not retreat. It knew full well its slower speed ant escape was impossible; its only option was to launch a death charge.
The ‘Starfire Wings’ attack proved effective.
The charging Ronglin was knocked off course.
Earlier, retaliation from the Alfonso Sect’s Battle Cruiser, as well as firepower from ‘Fire of Triumph’ before its systems were entirely disabled, had landed hits. The Ronglin’s Void Shield had already turned crimson.
The prolonged engagent delayed by the Battleship’s arrival had placed the Ronglin in a very precarious state. Multiple consecutive strikes, including three Doomsday Light Spears, had pounded the Void Shield from crimson to glowing red—the precursor to overload; then ca a shot from an X-class ‘Divine Punishnt’ Spear Array, shattering the shield and lting a hole into the Ronglin’s armor.
The difference in frontal combat effectiveness between a Battle Cruiser and a Battleship was starkly evident in this mont.
Imdiately, incoming volleys of cannon fire were dodged or intercepted with ergency maneuvers by the Ronglin. Yet, one X-class Colossal Cannon hit the stern brutally.
The armor failed to hold; the ship sustained major damage, now wobbling uncontrollably, struggling to maintain a stable trajectory.
However, just as the ‘Starfire Wings’ intended to press the attack and destroy the Alliance vessel, it suddenly took a hit on its flank.
The shot was fired by the ‘Fire of Triumph.’
The ‘Starfire Wings’ captain was dumbfounded.
He couldn’t comprehend why this happened.
It was clear that the Phoenix was formidable, and the Furyfla couldn’t match them; everyone understood this by now.
It was perhaps absurd to be overwheld so quickly, but marginally acceptable…
Yet, to capture a ship so swiftly? That wasn’t simple—it required a significant number of crew mbers.
Did they jump over with engineers alongside? And had enough personnel teleported in during ongoing combat to seize control of the vessel?
This was unheard of!
Yet, the ‘Starfire Wings’ captain quickly recalled one detail: the ‘Fire of Triumph’ wasn’t an ordinary warship—it was a Battle Barge exclusively used by Interstellar Warriors.
It had nurous critical shipboard roles that could only be operated by Interstellar Warriors. Through neural links and black shell interfaces, they could directly control significant portions of the vessel, much like their neuroconnectivity to Power Armor.
This seed to account for the situation.
Although certain nuances remained unclear, such as the apparent lack of password locks or genetic recognition safeguards…
And besides the neural-linked roles, the rest of the positions still required many crew mbers. Where did those co from?
These questions stayed unresolved.
But the ‘Starfire Wings’ had already lost its best opportunity to destroy the Ronglin.
Nurous Escort Ships had arrived, including a Lunar-class one, charging aggressively toward the ‘Starfire Wings.’
These small and dium-sized ships intercepted what remained of their own Destroyers and Cruisers while attacking the Ronglin, and simultaneously disrupted the next two volleys from the ‘Starfire Wings.’
Though they paid a steep price—losing two Lunar-class ships and more than ten Silver Shield and Silver Sword-class ships—the Ronglin was ultimately preserved.
anwhile, they were breached.
Spirits wreathed in lightning appeared across the vessel, and over a hundred Phoenix warriors teleported onboard.
Soon, the ‘Starfire Wings’ fell into the hands of the Alliance as well.
Once the outer fleet was completely wiped out, the downfall of the Furyfla beca a countdown to inevitability.
