Chapter 1089: Chapter 595
Fifteen minutes passed, Wang ngsong was drenched in sweat.
He hadn’t felt it before, but now that he was facing it himself, he finally realized—Furyfla… why is it this strong?
Wasn’t it just a battle group that had been thrashed by Phoenix?
Could it really be his own group…
Fifteen minutes ago, Furyfla and New Torch of the Epoch officially broke ties, and Fury Fla Battle Group acted directly.
Not only were the warriors on the flat terrain of the valley engaged, but Furyfla had also set up firepower in the surrounding mountains.
This truly was a deadly banquet; from the very beginning, Politos didn’t have good intentions.
They didn’t stop at just mobilizing the interstellar warriors; they even gathered forces from the Rebel Army. In direct combat, they couldn’t match the interstellar warriors, but they could operate artillery for long-range bombardnts. The firepower positions ranged from tens to dozens of kiloters away, making them virtually impossible for New Torch of the Epoch to deal with.
That said, Wang ngsong had certainly co prepared.
He had already deduced Politos’s malicious intent, anticipated betrayal and backstabbing, and wouldn’t co unard to the eting.
When Politos pulled his blade, Wang ngsong had already drawn his gun first.
Explosive firepower quickly enveloped Politos.
And when Zhang Chong of Fury Fla Battle Group stepped into the firepower network and charged in wielding a sword, he faced the ghostly green sword light in Wang ngsong’s hands.
In the span of three swift confrontations, every move Wang ngsong made was aid directly at Politos’s vital points, without the slightest concern about being struck by the Power Sword.
By all logic, Politos shouldn’t have been afraid under this exchange of life-or-death techniques.
But in truth, he was terrified.
Though his sword injured Wang ngsong, the ghostly-green weapon struck Politos deeply, nearly taking his life.
The disparity between their weapons was simply too pronounced.
Politos had heard of phase weapons before, but this was his first ti facing one directly.
He knew Wang ngsong couldn’t have obtained such a weapon on his own.
Only the Alliance possessed them.
Who had given Wang ngsong this sword was obvious without further explanation.
Politos already had his assumptions in mind; otherwise, he wouldn’t have staged the deadly banquet and invited Wang ngsong.
Originally, he simply wanted to neutralize the threat that Wang ngsong posed, resolve the instability surrounding this allied battle group leader, and bring New Torch of the Epoch firmly under his control. To achieve this, he hadn’t initially intended to kill, just lock him up.
But when he learned that Wang ngsong had arrived with his entire battle group, Politos’s mood turned grave.
The lack of trust was now laid bare on the table.
He had only hoped that it wasn’t too late.
Nevertheless, while Politos acted decisively, Wang ngsong was even more decisive.
One look at that phase weapon, and everything was crystal clear.
Politos didn’t insist on a prolonged fight to settle victory or defeat between them.
In his view, Wang ngsong’s skill was rely “passable.” As a battle group leader, he just barely asured up to the level of a Battle Group Champion.
But the problem was, Politos himself wasn’t far behind. After that deadly bloodbath fight, he was indeed one of Furyfla’s strongest, but before that, he wasn’t exactly top-tier within Furyfla.
Comparing Wang ngsong and Politos, they were evenly matched.
However, if the disparity in weaponry were factored in, Politos’s odds of winning weren’t great.
Wang ngsong didn’t linger either; after Politos retreated, the lighter injured Wang ngsong pulled back to his own battle group.
Under heavy firepower, he led his team to withdraw into the forested mountains.
This skirmish clearly left New Torch of the Epoch at a disadvantage.
They were outmatched not only in numbers but also in firepower and terrain, which was completely unfavorable. rely retreating back to the mountains alone cost them the lives of over a dozen warriors.
But this was only the beginning.
Six hundred Furyfla forces were pressing up, artillery was raining down upon them, and at least three hundred Furyfla troops were ambushing them from all directions.
By all accounts, this seed like a scenario of total annihilation.
If it were up to Wang ngsong himself, he certainly wouldn’t take on such a mission.
What would be the point of coming here to die?
But… this was the Alliance’s order.
As a defector desperate to gain the governor’s favor, to prove his worth, and to secure better treatnt after surrendering, what room did he have for bargaining?
He could only grit his teeth and co.
Of course, the Alliance wouldn’t outright say, “Go and destroy Furyfla.”
Everyone knew that wasn’t feasible.
New Torch of the Epoch’s task was rely to make a sufficient sacrifice to firmly pin down the enemy forces.
After Wang ngsong inford Georgette that he was going to et with Politos, the head nun of the Benevolent Lily demanded that he attend the banquet and hold his ground for at least fifteen minutes.
anwhile, Benevolent Lily, Glory Guards, Alliance Army, Alliance Navy… every force Georgette could marshal was already mobilizing.
But they couldn’t act too conspicuously; otherwise, they’d be detected.
Fortunately, the covert operation wouldn’t need to last too long; once Politos and Wang ngsong turned against each other, they could push forward at full speed.
Still, it ca at the expense of New Torch of the Epoch.
Despite being at a disadvantage in every aspect, at least they had three hundred interstellar warriors. Surely they could hold for fifteen minutes, right? Surely not too many would die, right?
Not necessarily.
Even though they had been proactive in their preparation, rely retreating from the firepower coverage of Furyfla still cost them over a dozen warriors.
It’s worth noting that during the past six months of guerrilla warfare, New Torch of the Epoch had only lost around fifty people total.
