Chapter 1185: Chapter 1051: Unexpected

The two starships began to clean up the battlefield, and their speed was greatly increased.

Only 3344 hovered in space, guarding against the opponent’s two main ships, appearing extremely aloof.

On the luxury starship, only one group was continuously capturing captives, and someone whispered, ”Don’t call them?”

Everyone already knew that the two later-arriving starships were likely reinforcements called by fellow travelers.

So this question didn’t mean any dissatisfaction, it was purely to try and establish good relations with the others.

”Forget it,” the Water Attribute Supreme shook his head, ”No need to hit the wall a third time.”

The Fire Attribute Supreme also agreed, ”Probably trying to distance themselves, after all, they killed one Supreme and captured two.”

Supreme-level casualties are not uncommon in power struggles of large factions.

However, the female Supreme just now was killed in a situation where she was captured and had no ability to resist.

Even though her actions were indeed excessive, being executed in front of so many people was a bit much.

In such circumstances, if the opposition insists on revenge, it is understandable.

They cleaned up the battlefield, mainly targeting relatively intact small ships.

Those severely damaged were dismissed by Qu Jianlei’s team, and even more so by people from the luxury starship.

Before the attack, the opponent had a total of twenty-seven small ships, now only eleven were relatively intact.

But three more could barely be used, so the Fire Attribute Supreme arranged for his people to board them.

Next, three starships plus five small attack ships surrounded the opponent’s two main ships.

These two ships have basically no damage, considered a considerable achievement.

Qu Jianlei, along with four people and two other Supremes, waited outside the starship.

The Fire Attribute Supreme initially wanted to greet them, but when he saw their faces looking stern and unapproachable, he wisely kept silent.

—You don’t want to talk to me; I don’t want to talk to you either. It’s not like we aren’t from major factions.

The two main ships have lost power; not only can they not attack, but the strength of their Protective Shields is nearly nonexistent.

The Flower Scorpion coldly spoke, ”Open the cabins and surrender one by one, don’t make me say it a second time!”

This time she didn’t give a countdown, yet the opposition cooperatively opened the cabins.

The Fire Attribute Supreme, Qu Jianlei, and Qinghu entered.

Mostly, in boarding battles, Supremes do not really lead the charge—low-tier Awakened and Modified Warriors are used here.

But Qu Jianlei’s team directly deployed Supremes, so the other side couldn’t show weakness.

Moreover, only sending out A-level and B-level would lack proper respect for collaborators, automatically forfeiting speaking rights.

The other three Supremes stayed outside the starship on guard, ready to respond to any unexpected events.

There were eleven people on the starship, not too many, as most were likely distributed among the attack ships.

Among these eleven, there was even a Supreme, possessing a Stone Attribute.

Additionally, there were three A-levels and four B-levels.

You could see the unwillingness in the opponent’s eyes, especially when they looked at Qu Jianlei, filled with fury.

However, they also knew the other side’s iron heart and did not resist.

Qinghu was not at all polite, restraining the Supreme first and then starting to search them.

Aside from the Supreme, A-levels also needed to be searched.

The ship search was spared, as these were to be taken away; Qu Jianlei merely extended his Perception to see if any locators were installed.

However, he only had a broad Perception... for more details, he would pass it on to Little Lake to check slowly later.

The Fire Attribute Supreme saw Qinghu holding a Storage Talisman and Storage Pouch, feeling a slight hint of envy.

—You know, these people should have attended auctions, maybe they held good stuff.

Nonetheless, he truly dared not entertain any crooked thoughts, not to mention the life-saving favor, his own strength did not allow it.

Sure enough, Qu Jianlei, with the help of Little Lake, actually found three hidden locators and casually removed them.

The Fire Attribute Supreme secretly clicked his tongue; this person’s Spiritual Power was indeed exceptionally strong.

The whole process lasted about ten minutes; all eleven crew members were transferred to the luxury starship.

The Stone Attribute Supreme was also transferred, with Qu Jianlei bluntly stating, ”We don’t need this person.”

The Fire Attribute was eager to have captured a Supreme, which was quite a harvest.

After evacuating the starship, everyone surrounded the massive Mother Ship again, still in the same posture.

The Mother Ship was far larger than a starship, with twenty-three crew members.

It was supposed to be Paranoid and Mu Yu to enter the Mother Ship this time.

But Qu Jianlei used a natural gaze to stop Mu Yu, then casually glanced at Paranoid.

Deservedly fighting side by side many times, Paranoid very casually dropped his eyelids: Received!

At this moment, one cannot use significant eye signals; lowering eyelids prevents others from detecting anomalies.

Still, three Supremes went in to bring people out.

Among the twenty-three people, there were four A-levels, several B-levels and C-levels, and some ordinary people.

Just as they escorted people out and were sensing locator positions everywhere, suddenly, an overwhelming pressure emerged abruptly.

This pressure exceeded the aura of the Supreme, and came so suddenly, catching the three completely off guard.

The cooperating Fire Attribute Supreme truly wasn’t prepared for this.

He thought that when he had just taken people out was the most watchful moment—unfortunately, the opponent thought the same.

Lately, he had used spiritual perception to confirm that there was no one left on the Mother Ship, so what was there to guard against?

In that instant, he felt as if a massive stone weighing a thousand pounds had smashed down on him.

This pressure not only affected his body but also impacted his mind, making it hard for his brain to function.

His body weakened, and he almost fell onto the deck.

Fortunately, he was experienced, and since it was about clearing the battlefield, he retained a basic sense of alertness.

—Anyone who’s been to a battlefield knows that even if there’s no one left, there might still be mines, mechanical traps, or unexploded bombs.

His legs reflexively exerted strength, wanting to dash out of the Mother Ship.

But regrettably, his legs couldn’t muster the strength!

Even though he was only about ten meters from the cabin door, he couldn’t manage to rush out.

He only advanced four or five meters before collapsing on the ground, sliding another meter forward.

At least his brain could barely function, so he shouted loudly, ”Above Supreme!”

However, it was a pity that he thought he was shouting with all his might, but it was barely louder than a mosquito’s buzz.

Luckily, Qu Jianlei and Paranoid reacted quickly, both executing an Instant Flash, darting out of the cabin.

Qu Jianlei, when the cabin door opened, felt a little unsettled, faintly sensing a barely perceptible threat.

This sort of intuition had saved him more than once, and this time he chose to trust it.

If it turned out to be a false alarm, it wouldn’t matter; the team members were aware that the leader had little sense of security.

In any case, since there could be danger, he absolutely wouldn’t allow his comrades to fall into peril.

Originally, Paranoid hadn’t sensed any issue, but that one look from the leader made him instantly raise his awareness.

Then, he silently enhanced his perception and faintly felt something was amiss.

—This feeling was somewhat like the test conducted by the leader with Jia Shuqing and himself some time ago.

Although nothing could be sensed, it just felt slightly off.

With this sort of outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense vigilance, upon sensing something wrong, the two reacted instantly without hesitation.

This time, they flashed out a full seven or eight kilometers.

Once their speed decreased, they realized Qinghu and Mu Yu also opted for Instant Flash, going about fifteen or sixteen kilometers out.

These two indeed didn’t sense anything, but they had already discussed the contingency plan beforehand.

If nothing unexpected happened, they would take turns boarding the ship, not making a spontaneous decision.

A mature team generally has a corresponding plan; spontaneous decisions can seem like poor coordination.

Furthermore, it can show outsiders a spirit of sharing benefits and risks; that’s team spirit.

However, Qu Jianlei’s sudden decision to replace Mu Yu indicated a potential risk.

The leader had already warned them, so if they couldn’t even run, they might as well bang their heads against a wall.

But after flashing out, they realized a problem, ”Whoa, it’s not the Mother Ship that’s about to explode!”

They ran... a bit too far, and crucially, it was seen by others as well.

At the same time, a blurred figure appeared beside the Fire Attribute Supreme, ”Hm?”

This person was evidently a bit surprised; he was supposed to deal with three Supremes, so why was only one left?

He was originally above Supreme cultivation level, but even in space, he was not willing to confront a Starship head-on.

Firstly, because no matter his speed, he couldn’t match a Starship, making his attack inefficient.

Secondly, as Nutrient Injection pointed out, those above Supreme endure a certain backlash from the world.

There are various forms of backlash, but without a doubt, acting casually comes at a significant cost.

Therefore, he preferred to demonstrate his power in boarding battles rather than interfering in Star Wars.

Just take today’s battle as an example; during the initial melee, there was not much he could do.

Once the Starship was infiltrated by the opponent and the control system was hijacked, all he could do was lament as such disruptions were not his forte.

When the opponents finally surrounded the Mother Ship, he was free to act.

However, regretfully, even in such circumstances, the protective shields of the opposing three main ships maintained high strength.

—They’re all battle-hardened veterans, never giving the opponent a chance to turn the tables.

At this moment, if he were to forcefully strike, destroying the Attack Ship with one blow should be possible.

But there are five Attack Ships; five blows require some time, and he couldn’t assure a one-shot kill on the three main ships.

If it took a few strikes to destroy one vessel, would he be able to catch the rest of the Starships fleeing in panic?

Moreover, such level of attack would cause his body severe damage.

So the wisest choice was to let the adversary capture their own warships until it was the Mother Ship’s turn!

He intended to control as many of the opposing Supremes as possible, thus gaining the upper hand.

But how did things turn out like this?
