1138: Chapter 625, Against the Wind 1138: Chapter 625, Against the Wind Gu Hang stood in the very center of the Storm God Kingdom, his consciousness spreading throughout the entire kingdom.
In this nearly eternal war of attrition, who will ultimately erge as the victor?
Your swarm is endless, my heroic spirits endlessly resurrect.
But in reality, nothing is truly endless.
What about the subspace shadow?
Has it really turned the subspace into a vacuum?
Simply put, it’s just a force belonging to the swarm mirrored into the subspace.
Fighting purely on this basis of mutual attrition, those invading swarms being continually damaged and eliminated actually represent the ongoing weakening of the subspace shadow.
When this weakening reaches a certain level, the subspace shadow might not be able to sustain any longer.
But the sa applies to Gu Hang as well.
The invading swarm, eliminated by the thunder descending from the sky, also consus the power of the Storm God Kingdom; if the swarm annihilates the heroic spirits, resurrecting them again is also a drain on the divine kingdom’s power.
If the consumption continues excessively, the Storm God Kingdom might also collapse.
But regardless of the outco, this war of attrition will be an extrely long process.
It is uncertain how long it will take to see a result.
In the end, who will win and who will lose?
Gu Hang doesn’t know; at least, he has no definite answer at the mont.
Yet Gu Hang hasn’t forgotten how this ‘eternal’ battle in subspace began: it serves the confrontation between both fleets in the real universe.
According to the current trend, no matter who ultimately wins, the naval battle in the real universe will certainly be over.
So what is the situation of the naval battle in the real universe now?
It seems that the Alliance is at a disadvantage.
Without the intervention of spiritual power, the Alliance Fleet is indeed at a disadvantage in terms of strength and scale compared to the opponent.
From the perspective of conventional naval warfare, the Alliance’s operation has encountered problems.
There has always been so gap in the fleet’s capabilities, and when the opponent crossed the jump point, the Alliance’s grasp of the initiative was inadequate, being suppressed by Waluk’s arranged series of smooth maneuvers.
During the most dangerous mont of crossing the Star Realm Tunnel and reaching the jump point, Waluk’s fleet has already gotten through it.
Now, with both sides setting up positions, relying entirely on their fleet’s firepower in confrontation, what does the chanical fleet have to fear?
On the Alliance’s side, of course, there’s an Emperor-class ship, but are the opponent’s two chanical Arks just for show?
It’s been a few years since the Alfonso Sect’s three chanical Arks, with Alfonso II, the one most oriented towards warfare, was destroyed among them.
The remaining two are conventional chanical Arks.
Ordinary chanical Arks, in terms of ship specifications, are not inferior to War Arks, but they have more production and research capabilities, as conventional chanical Arks are not solely born for warfare.
Nonetheless, their combat power remains formidable.
They are a whole class larger than normal battleships, capable of hosting a crew ten tis the size of a traditional ship.
Despite being hindered by other non-military equipnt, the number of heavy cannons they house is evident.
An individual chanical Ark might not match up with an Emperor-class, but two definitely surpass one Emperor-class.
Not to ntion, there also exist Retribution-class battleships and battlecruisers nearby, with numbers exceeding those of the Alliance.
In a fleet showdown with array bombardnt, the Alliance is inferior not only in firepower but also in armor and shields.
If this conventionally continues, the Alliance Fleet will end up losing.
In reality, the Alliance has also recognized the problem.
Upon consulting Gu Hang and realizing that support from spiritual power is unlikely in the short term, the Alliance adjusted its strategy promptly.
They no longer concentrated firepower on bombarding the enemy’s main warships.
Without the cooperation of spiritual power, directly focusing fire on the imnse warships is not sothing the weaker side should undertake.
A chanical Ark was targeted, but so what?
These core giant ships reside in the heart of their fleet formation, shielded by nurous other ships.
What’s the purpose of the escort ship?
Not only does the giant ship’s own close-range firepower intercept incoming fire, but these escort ships do the sa.
Under multiple layers of interception, the firepower that reaches the giant ship itself is already minimal.
The chanical Ark’s mass is significant, with formidable Void Shields and armor, making them tough to destroy.
Despite targeting them, the actual firepower hitting them is so minimal it’s insufficient to bring them down.
Even if luck fails, interception efficiency falters for a while, and they get battered, causing the Void Shield to show signs of overload, bringing in more escort ships or even cruisers directly to form shields in front of the giant ships can prevent them from being destroyed or eliminated.
This tactic taken by the weaker side carries a bit of a life-or-death gamble.
Unless there’s a stroke of incredible luck and so unexpected situation occurs on the battlefield, allowing their firepower to pierce through various defenses and swiftly eliminate one of the enemy’s giant ships, altering the balance of power on the battlefield, otherwise, they will gain nothing from such a prolonged fight, suffering enormous losses!
