Chapter 1042: Chapter 1042
"Another warship, no, seems like a different model. Oh well, doesn’t matter much, they’re all destined to die either way." Du You had just arrived via Instantaneous Movement and saw two warships in the sky.
It must be said, relative to typical creatures, these technological types of weapons had a higher attack power and longer range under normal circumstances. If logistics weren’t so troublesome and the actual body wasn’t so fragile, technology-type professions would definitely be the strongest at the lower levels.
As Du You spoke, his actions did not slow down. He pointed towards the sky, and three Energy Gathering Magic Rings instantly formed. Energy Gathering Magic Cannon, this was Du You’s magic capable of attacking from extreme distances. If one talked about attack distance, the range of the Energy Gathering Magic Cannon could definitely match or even surpass that of a real warship’s energy cannon.
In just one second of gathering, Du You released it. A black beam of light shot out instantaneously, hitting one of the warships in the sky. The warship’s Defensive Barrier had no chance to defend itself and was directly shattered.
The black beam then pierced into the warship’s energy chamber. Du You wasn’t attacking randomly.
The next moment, along with the energy chamber and the rest of the ship, it was completely penetrated. The energy within the energy chamber burst forth, exploding instantly, turning the entire warship into a massive fireball in the sky.
"It seems there’s no need to gather for one second, direct attack should also do, I’ve overestimated these things."
The reason Du You gathered for a full second was precisely because the opponent had technological weapons. Du You always felt very cautious about technology-type weapons; no one knew just how powerful they could be.
But after this attack, Du You suddenly realized that technological weapons seemed to be just so-so. They look quite sci-fi and powerful, but their attacks, rated at tier four, couldn’t match up to his own at all.
Seeing its ally destroyed, the warship nearby hurriedly turned its cannons towards Du You, no longer attacking its original target.
A red energy cannon shot out instantly, and this time Du You didn’t gather energy, he just fired an Energy Gathering Magic Cannon right at the cannon’s mouth. The black and red beams of light collided in the air and exploded at once.
But the red energy cannon was no match for the Energy Gathering Magic Cannon. After being shattered, the Energy Gathering Magic Cannon still had a force that continued to rush toward the warship, striking its perimeter and causing the Defensive Barrier to tremble continuously.
The alarm bells resounded incessantly, and the people aboard those warships couldn’t help but want to flee. This update ıs available on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩
But at that moment, Du You suddenly fired another Energy Gathering Magic Cannon. Before the warship could turn around or make any other action, the Energy Gathering Magic Cannon hit the barrier, piercing it, and then hit the energy chamber once more.
Another fireball rose in the sky, and Du You, laughing and talking to himself, said, "Not gathering seems also insufficient, the attack power isn’t enough after all, it’s still a technological weapon. Half a second of gathering should be just enough to wipe this guy out in an instant."
While Du You was at ease, the mood of the people from the Bloody Empire on the other side was not so good.
"Damn it, what tier is this Superpower Man? Couldn’t be tier five, could it? This is cheating."
"Your Excellency Commander, we’ve received orders from headquarters, commanding us to retreat with all living forces. We’re to prepare for battle with all our might at the main base to block this Superpower Man. A request for reinforcements has been sent out."
"Damn these emergency requests, what good are they? He’s almost at our doorstep, and emergency requests—those take at least three to five days to arrive."
Indeed, forget about three to five days; if they were wiped out, then the support wouldn’t come at all.
It was an unwritten rule between both sides, otherwise, full-scale war would have already broken out. Despite the fierce battles, a full-scale war was, in reality, an impossibility.
"Commander, what do we do?" the signals officer asked urgently.
The commander said coldly, "What else can we do? The order has already been given from above, retreat."
To give up the base he had worked so hard to build was truly heartbreaking. However, there was no choice, for if they did not abandon the base now, they would have to lay down their lives for it later. Everyone had seen Du You’s abilities; he was not someone they could deal with. What sort of superpower was this, anyway?
As soon as the other side made a move, Du You laughed. "Haha, they’ve started to retreat. Slow down, let them retreat."
Both sisters nodded in agreement. Lin Yucha had always been providing support, only attacking those targets that were hard to deal with. But Lin Yushi was fully engaged in combat, and her Thunderstorm Arrow once again played a huge role.
Each blast of thunder and lightning inflicted tremendous damage on those electronic devices.
Unfortunately, even if they killed these things, no Demon Extermination Spirit would appear. Without the Demon Extermination Spirit, her magic power could not recover quickly. If she hadn’t later found some Bloody War Dogs and created a batch of Demon Extermination Spirits, Lin Yushi might have already been unable to carry on. The issue with her magic power recovery was indeed too significant.
Looking not far away, the Double-headed Blood Demon Dog seemed to be having an easy time selecting biological bases, opening its two mouths, and dual-wielding Life Swallowing. This support capability suddenly turned into a power for mass extermination.
As a massive amount of life force was absorbed, the biological weapons died off in large numbers, falling en masse, a sight more spectacular than reaping wheat. With the bio-weapons gone, many bases essentially lost their combat capabilities.
Further away, the Death Scorpion fought even more fiercely, turning the ground to sand wherever it went. Then it used the sand to form a huge silhouette, each attack carrying terrifying power.
When encountering enemy attacks, the Death Scorpion didn’t care at all. It let the attacks hit, which were too weak to harm it, and when the attacks were strong, they simply shattered the sand, which would then reform the next instant.
This seemingly immortal sand monster became a nightmare for all the major bases. Huge amounts of sand flying in the air caused serious trouble for the enemy. Some weapons, not particularly resistant to sandstorms, frequently malfunctioned amid the swirling sands. With the retreat order issued, the people here could be said to be the quickest to evacuate.
A large number of personnel from within the entire asteroid area gathered towards the central base. This central base could even be considered a city. At this point, the central base’s military power grew, and the atmosphere for a decisive battle gradually thickened.
The transportation capabilities of technology were sufficient to transfer all personnel from the surrounding major bases within two hours. However, due to the hasty departure, the packing was not very thorough. Every base left behind quite a lot of things. Gradually, Du You realized even if he wanted to slow down, it was no longer possible.
