Chapter 1122: Chapter 988: Morale Soaring

At the beginning of a one-on-four, Little Lake didn’t manage to invade the opponent’s system in time and relied purely on our own powerful computing power.

But even without an invasion, Little Lake, who had studied numerous space battle cases, wasn’t someone the enemy could contend with.

Thanks to this, the Mining Starship’s performance stunned everyone.

Bentley wore a holographic sensing helmet, seemingly controlling the starship.

In fact, Bentley was merely putting on a show; he had roamed space for years and knew well how extraordinary his AI was.

Time and again, the Mining Starship dodged next to the opponent’s cannon fire, displaying such skillful maneuvering that it completely shocked the crowd.

Patrice’s crewmen saw the fight begin and initially volunteered to take control of the ship.

But their request was rejected by Qu Jianlei, who said that they’d handle it themselves.

After witnessing a few maneuvers, the crew’s discontent vanished instantly.

”Damn, can you have such anticipation? That’s incredible!”

”That’s not just anticipation, is it? But rather the legendary... anticipating the opponent’s anticipation!”

Big Head Butterfly even had the spare time to turn two circles, ”The tactical literacy of the opposite side is so poor, it’s all textbook-like operation.”

To be fair, the tactical literacy of the opponent wasn’t bad at all; the ”textbook-like” evaluation should be genuine praise.

However, saying it this way was disdainful, ”There’s absolutely no innovation; watch me perform a textbook-like counterattack.”

Nevertheless, among the four fire platforms on the opposite side, some had basic qualities that weren’t as good.

Throughout the fight, the Mining Starship did take some fire. But it wasn’t heavy firepower, and it didn’t breach defense.

As for Little Lake’s reaction, it indeed was fast. Even when the ship was hit by cannons, it could use the opponent’s impact to quickly adjust and dodge.

Other crew members were directly stunned watching, looking at Bentley almost as if gazing at a god.

Cartier couldn’t help speaking up, ”This one’s skill... really admirable! Is he willing to lecture for the military?”

Flower Scorpion was wearing another helmet, while in everyone’s view, she was using a perception system to maneuver the firepower.

Bentley’s stunning manipulation overshadowed her aura, though it wasn’t long before someone realized it.

”This fire control specialist is amazing, directly targeting and killing small attack ships?”

”Geez, we can’t help at all, maybe I’ll check the ammo compartment.”

”Let’s go together, I’ll see if the power system needs cooling, our system load is too high!”

Originally, these tasks could be accomplished with robots.

However, since the people volunteered, Little Lake modestly hid its talent and let them do something.

Such a response clearly indicates that our side’s morale is quite high.

However, amidst this cheerful atmosphere, the omnipresent monitors detected something unusual again.

Qu Jianlei whispered a few words to Qinghu, and Qinghu Supreme vanished in an instant.

When others were puzzled, she appeared carrying someone, holding a thumb-sized object in her hand.

She threw the person to the ground, shook the object in her hand, and spoke expressionlessly, ”He planned to blow up the power system!”

This was a small fire bomb, not very powerful, it wouldn’t blow a hole in the starship.

But if detonated internally, it would be enough to destroy the most fragile part of the power system.

Currently, the Mining Starship is a warrior growing stronger with precision firepower output, and agile maneuvering is the key.

Too many people within the starship knew the situation; upon hearing the words, their expressions turned uniformly grim.

If the power were lost, the starship would instantly face concentrated fire.

Although there is backup power on the ship, and main power can be repaired, losing the initiative is unimaginable.

The best-case scenario is a mutually destructive outcome.

The saboteur was one of the two B-level Awakened ones, and being B-level and participating in Maiden Star Realm adventures must have unique qualities.

But Patrice just glanced at him and spoke expressionlessly, ”Razor, kill him!”

Why did the other party do this, and how did this Supreme discover it... She simply didn’t ask, nor did she question.

Just seeing the process of the opponent violently hitting four starships clearly shows that this group was real merciless.

Crushing the enemy’s teammate... what’s there to question?

Though Granny Jia said a word, ”Twist his neck, don’t spill blood, cleaning up is troublesome.”

As this scene unfolded within the starship, the battle situation became even clearer; another armed merchant ship was hit on its power system.

This time, the opponent’s power system wasn’t completely destroyed, but the mobility was greatly reduced.

In the next moment, the previously crippled Gao Fang warship exploded after being hit in the ammunition depot.

Remaining armed merchant ship saw the scene, terrified, immediately turned to flee without a second thought.

Facts have proven, our side couldn’t really beat the opponent; now if we don’t flee, we won’t be able to escape anymore.

Another scarred small attack ship saw this and fled rapidly, apparently trying to use the merchant ship to escape.

It has no choice; without a large merchant ship, with the endurance of a small ship, it is simply impossible to survive and leave the Black Zone.

Another white beam streaked past, and the small attack ship was hit at the tail, jolting forward and crashing directly into the merchant ship.

After a burst of brilliant fireworks, the small ship was smashed to pieces, and a large hole appeared in the hull of the merchant ship.

Little Lake, however, pressed on relentlessly, commanding the starship to pursue, clearly not wanting to let go of the last one.

Palamera and the others exchanged a glance: these people are really too fierce.

In their view, the damage to the merchant ship was so severe that the possibility of leaving the Black Zone was extremely low.

In this situation, there’s really no need to continue the pursuit; not only does it waste ammunition and energy blocks, but the desperate enemy might also bite back.

However, the Mining Starship continued the chase and, before long, analyzed the opponent’s escape trajectory.

The mindset of a starship when fleeing is easy to discern: a straight run paired with dodging up, down, left, and right.

But the trajectory... no one and no equipment can achieve a ”straight line” in the Black Zone, not even Little Lake.

However, within a small range, it can somewhat judge the curvature and refraction rate.

The Mining Starship appeared not to pursue directly but, after a while, the fleeing starship surprisingly approached of its own accord.

Palamera and others fell silent again, realizing this starship truly mastered some secrets of the Black Zone.

The fleeing merchant ship discovered their sudden pursuit rush, taking them by complete surprise, forcing them to resist fiercely.

However, it was ultimately in vain; before long, the resisting merchant ship completely lost all operational capability.

Some lifeboats and lifeboats were ejected from the merchant ship, and Qu Jianlei looked at the others, ”Do you want to pursue and kill them?”

Palamera decisively shook her head, ”This is a merchant ship we’ve never seen before; let’s return to the main battlefield.”

Even if these survivors are in space, they might not receive good rescue, let alone still being in the Black Zone now.

Most likely, there’s no need for us to act; they’ll eventually meet their end.

Big Head Butterfly regretfully expressed in Qu Jianlei’s mind, ”What a pity, with some repairs, it could still be usable.”

You even have an addiction to collecting scraps? Qu Jianlei was at a loss for words, ”This kind of thing can only happen once and not again.”

Big Head Butterfly twisted its body, ”You’re still rich, boss, you’re flaunting it now.”

Qu Jianlei replied irritably, ”Picking up and repairing broken merchant ships every time, are you sure it won’t lead to associative thinking?”

Returning to the main battlefield, the still-mobile merchant ship was slowly escaping.

On the other two merchant ships, damage control personnel were also rapidly repairing the ship’s hull.

But it’s all to no avail; after supplemental shots from the Mining Starship, the three merchant ships were completely paralyzed.

Finally, a voice came over the public channel, ”Palamera, we surrender!”

Palamera was first stunned upon hearing it, then slowly shook her head, ”Sorry, it’s already too late.”

”It’s me, Park Yibo,” the voice continued to shout, ”We fought together back in the day!”

”Tsk,” Rusna sneered, ”Now you think of begging for mercy?”

Genetic Vine also spoke in a low voice, ”We can’t let them send out word of our spoils, or troubles will keep coming.”

His concern is valid; despite being four Supreme teams, the spoils are too coveted, and there are always stronger forces than them.

Genetic Vine picked up the microphone, ”How can we be sure that you won’t blurt out once you leave?”

”We are willing to accept being placed under restriction,” the other side answered solemnly, ”and can surrender to the Imperial Government...”

”In addition, we can also tell you who the mastermind really is.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than another voice chimed in, ”Negotiating now? It’s the fourth in line of the Marquis’s house!”

Upon hearing these words, Patrice shook her head decisively and then sighed, ”This information is not important to me at all!”

To successfully seize the title, she is practically an enemy of the entire house; the mastermind... is not really important now.

Cartier furrowed his brow, ”That person’s voice... I feel like I’ve heard it somewhere.”

”No need to recall,” Palamera shook her head, ”Are we letting them go?”

Patrice hesitated a bit but then voiced out, ”Cornered beasts fight back... maybe just ignore them now?”

It’s not that she’s soft-hearted; rather, she sees Palamera as an ally and doesn’t want to take more risks.

Even a rabbit will bite when cornered, and a Supreme at the end of their tether becomes even more terrifying when they erupt.

Hearing this, Palamera and the other three exchanged glances.

They also realized how tricky the death throes of a Supreme could be; the best response might be to leave them stranded in the Black Zone.

But their side had lost a starship, and a Supreme was injured, just to let the other side go?

Knowing everyone’s thoughts, Cartier spoke out proactively, ”I don’t care; there’s no need to take further risks.”

They took the money to help fight, but throughout the battle, it was Zhan Donglai’s hired reinforcements that handled it all.

Now is the time to strike the drowning dog; going in for a fight and then collecting payment... everyone needs some dignity, right?
