Chapter 1786 - 1420: Ambush
Long Ke scratched his head in boredom, perplexed.
"Boss, why has he gone down for so long and hasn’t come up yet?"
"Be patient and wait, Su Mo surely has his reasons for doing this."
Qian Chengxue has a lot of confidence in Su Mo.
At this moment, a streak of light flew by rapidly, as Kendi piloted the mecha and landed on the ground.
"Kendi, why are you here?"
Long Ke asked unexpectedly.
"Something’s wrong, where’s the boss? Lord Tilo can’t contact him now."
Kendi hurriedly replied.
Upon hearing this, Qian Chengxue and the others were also surprised and immediately asked Kendi, "What happened, Su Mo is down in the mine cave."
"Tilo just received a message from An Yin, Luo Qi’s troops are under ambush and attack from the Eternal Sleep Clan in front of the starry sky, now completely surrounded, the situation is very critical."
Kendi explained briefly.
"I told you that arrogant guy is unreliable, insisting on going ahead, isn’t this just making things worse."
Long Ke couldn’t help but complain.
"Alright, Long Ke, stop talking."
Just then a steady voice interrupted Long Ke.
Upon hearing this voice, Qian Chengxue and the others turned their heads to see Su Mo emerging from the excavated mine cave.
"Su Mo, did you hear?"
Qian Chengxue asked in surprise.
"Yes, everyone stop complaining, regardless, Luo Qi is one of us. His initial intentions were good. Everyone return to Immortal Blade and prepare for battle!"
Su Mo decisively issued the command.
"Understood!"
Qian Chengxue and all the others replied solemnly.
...
Moments later, Su Mo and the team returned to Immortal Blade and immediately entered the control room. Without waiting for Tilo to speak, Su Mo decisively issued the command.
"Set sail and send a communication request to An Yin."
"Yes!"
Tilo unconditionally executed Su Mo’s command.
The legendary level Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, slowly started, the huge ship floated up and sailed out into space.
At this time, the communication request was connected.
An Yin’s image appeared, she saluted Su Mo and then said.
"Commander Su Mo."
"What’s the current situation on Luo Qi’s side, how much do you know?"
Su Mo was quite pleased with An Yin’s response; upon hearing of Luo Qi’s distress, she didn’t recklessly charge over, but instead first notified him, which was well done.
"The situation is very grim, Luo Qi’s troops are encircled by the enemy. Communications have been cut off, it was one of the team members who fought their way out to seek help."
An Yin explained simply.
"Set off!"
Su Mo decisively commanded An Yin.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing Su Mo’s words, An Yin couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Soon the legendary level Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, joined with An Yin’s troops, and they sped towards the distant starry sky.
The creator Swallower said in a deep voice to Su Mo, "Looks like there’s a tough battle ahead."
"Hmm, it was bound to happen eventually. By the way, how much energy have you stored, I need to know."
Su Mo inquired with concern.
"Current energy storage level is sixty-seven percent."
The creator Swallower replied with satisfaction.
Hearing this, Su Mo swallowed, having seen with his own eyes the number of Energy Crystal Stones in the lower mine cave.
Originally, he had hoped to save a little, but unexpectedly the creator Swallower still absorbed it all. Absorbing it all was one thing, but it still wasn’t full.
"What a pity, it’s still not full."
"It’s not that easy to get it full, for such level crystal veins, find three more like it and it should be enough."
"Just pretend I didn’t say anything."
Su Mo’s mouth twitched slightly, he wondered where he could find them.
Time ticked by.
Before long, Su Mo led the fleet, approaching the starry sky area where Luo Qi was in trouble.
No warning was needed, as soon as they approached, the radar scanning system emitted a piercing alarm.
"Warning, numerous enemy units of the Eternal Sleep Clan detected."
Tilo turned to Su Mo and reported, "The enemy’s concentrated forces are even larger than expected!"
"Regardless, keep An Yin’s fleet close. Use Immortal Blade to tear open a gap and forcefully storm in, speed is crucial, I estimate Luo Qi and the others can’t hold out much longer."
Su Mo quickly made a decision after a brief evaluation.
"Understood!"
Tilo immediately executed Su Mo’s command.
Tilo swiftly entered commands, the main cannon of Immortal Blade began charging, launch ports 1-1000W rapidly loaded.
At the same time, Tilo issued orders to An Yin.
"Load all weapons, don’t spare ammunition, we’re tearing open a gap in one go! Charge forward in one breath!"
"Understood!"
An Yin saluted in response.
In the starry sky, Immortal Blade led a vast fleet, getting ever closer to the encirclement of the Eternal Sleep Clan.
At this time, the Eternal Sleep Clan troops realized the situation, and the Dandelion Fortresses rotated, Wind Shuttle starships turned their bows, Spirit Touchers frantically gathered, preparing to meet the incoming enemy.
Both sides rapidly approached, ready to engage.
A fierce battle was on the verge of erupting!
In the command room, Artificial Intelligence Dark Spirit continuously reported.
"Ten seconds until first contact!"
"Nine seconds!"
...
"Two seconds!"
"One second!"
"Fire!"
Tilo swung his hand decisively, issuing the command.
The main cannon of Immortal Blade fired a devastating beam, while countless launch ports instantly unleashed 1000W missiles.
An Yin’s fleet followed with a dense barrage.
At that moment, the Eternal Sleep Clan’s blocking troops launched a storm-like attack without hesitation.
Both sides’ attacks immediately fell upon each other.
Boom!
Immortal Blade was heavily attacked, its Immortal Shield’s strength quickly decreased, the ship continuously shook.
Simultaneously, ships led by An Yin were blown up one by one.
However, within the dense center of the Eternal Sleep Clan’s troops, obstructing enemies—be it starships or fortresses, even Spirit Touchers—were shattered as a Celestial Cannon pierced through.
Dense barrages fell, swathes of brilliant light rose, at this moment, the pitch-black universe seemed to brighten.
Instantly, a large gap was torn open in the encirclement formed by the Eternal Sleep Alien Army.
Tilo seized the opportunity and issued the command.
"Charge in!"
The legendary level Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, led the charge through at high speed, An Yin’s troops followed closely.
Su Mo took a deep breath, Tilo certainly did not disappoint him.
Just as Su Mo’s fleet charged into the encirclement.
"Scanning detected Luo Qi’s troops! They are under heavy attack, the enemy’s numbers are immense. Based on incomplete statistics, the enemy units number around 200 million....."
Tilo was reporting, when suddenly her expression showed a hint of shock.
"What’s wrong?"
Su Mo also sensed something amiss, so he immediately asked.
"No signals detected from the Star Destroyer Light Crystal, it seems Luo Qi’s main ship has sunk."
Tilo replied with a solemn expression.
"How come, the main ship has sunk so soon? Are you sure?"
