I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Chapter 327: Chapter 228: The Great Defeat_l

Harrison Clark’s warning was a step too late.

Although Daniel Thompson and the others wanted to leave, the acceleration performance of the elite Enhanced Eagle Strike Armor was only slightly better than the Black Light War Beasts.

Because Harrison Clark, the captain of this special operations team, was still at the forefront, Daniel Thompson and the others knew that he didn’t need to be saved, but they eventually hesitated and weighed their options when making the decision.

Even though this process was less than a tenth of a second, the hundred Black Light War Beasts had already rushed to a position not far in front of Daniel Thompson.

At this moment, there were not just Daniel Thompson and the others nearby, but also other members of the special operations team, including Oliver Yeoman and Marthus. Some of them were even positioned further forward.

However, the Black Light War Beasts that directly targeted Daniel Thompson seemed to ignore these people.

By this time, the large-scale battlefield had quickly entered a state of chaos.

One million war beasts, 120,000 Eagle Strike Warriors.

Ordinary soldiers faced with Black Light War Beasts had no chance of winning, even one on one, let alone the 60,000 who were close to the armed transport ships. The disparity between enemy and our fighting strength was as high as 16.7:1.

With such a huge disparity in power, the soldiers were simply unable to resist. Faced with the raging tide of war beasts, they had already turned and fled.

The engine performance of the Black Light War Beasts was slightly stronger than the regular enhanced Eagle Strike Armor, and the distance between the two sides continued to close with one chasing the other.

The performance of the elite soldiers’ dual engine system was slightly better, making it harder for them to be easily caught, but the outer front was blocked by the various weapons on the Triangular Pyramid Warships.

They were caught between a rock and a hard place, in grave danger.

If they could break through the encirclement and scatter, then every one who escaped would be a bonus.

Even if the hope was slim, they had to escape.

In the small-scale battlefield near Daniel Thompson, a strange pattern had formed.

If they were to strictly follow Nora Camp’s order not to rescue each other, the likes of Oliver Yeoman should have withdrawn by now.

With the performance of their elite enhanced armor, they had a certain chance of survival.

But it was unknown who fired the first shot, discovering that these Black Light War Beasts, with clear movement targets, only knew how to dodge but didn’t care about their own attacks.

Even if they launched a continuous attack, they could intercept one or two, or even more, war beasts along the way.

This was an opportunity to create battle results, and at the same time, the best opportunity to accomplish another task!

Daniel Thompson exchanged glances with the others who knew Harrison Clark’s situation and made a new decision in an instant.

This time, they would use Daniel Thompson as bait to cover Harrison Clark’s retreat!

If they died, there would still be many elite human soldiers left.

As long as humanity was not destroyed in one fell swoop, Harrison Clark could continue to train new elites.

But if he died, it would be impossible.

So, although Captain Camp said that no one should think about saving anyone, they would choose self-sacrifice in defiance of military orders.

In the special operations team, it was unknown who turned on the music system at this time, and a classic piece from history, equally stunning but overshadowed by “Sharp Edges Fully Exposed,” suddenly echoed in the ears of every Eagle Strike Warrior nearby.

” Self – Combustion!”

The power of music seemed tangible.

With a death wish, they would self-combust.

Fight! Cover the retreat of those who need to retreat!

Today is the most valuable day for us to die!

Daniel Thompson’s voice rang out again in the public channel, “All my comrades, listen to me. We can all die, but Harrison Clark can’t. This time, it’s our turn to cover Harrison Clark’s retreat.”

“Why, Instructor Hill?”

“Don’t we need your guidance more?”

“Yeah, Instructor Hill, you should go. We’ll cover you!”

Uninformed Eagle Strike Warriors all expressed their incomprehension.

It was not their fault; all along, the superstar instructor created by Harrison Clark and Giant Wave Vertical Team was Daniel Thompson.

In these nearly four months, the “Tiger Style Course” brought visible improvements to everyone, and Daniel Thompson’s personal reputation was extremely high.

Even though Harrison Clark had demonstrated extraordinary fighting abilities, the soldiers still firmly believed that Daniel Thompson was the most important one, as he could bring improvement to others.

Daniel Thompson understood everyone’s feelings, but he and the other members of the special operations team could not explain, otherwise, they would expose Harrison Clark.

There was not much time left to hesitate. A hundred Halo War Beasts had already rushed close, and the thirty people closest to Daniel Thompson quickly formed a well-tested chain defense formation.

Humankind’s use of Hawk Armor against radium had been honed over a hundred years, polishing hundreds of combat plans to deal with various situations.

The chain defense formation could overlap multiple Eagle Strike Soldiers’ force field shields, complementing each other and forming a coordinated defense system. It was a secret weapon for Eagle Strike Soldiers to fight against the massive mechanical army of radium with a small number of soldiers.

In the past, due to the strong point-to-point breakthrough firepower of the Halo War Beasts, this defense formation’s overlapped shield energy transfer speed couldn’t catch up and was almost ineffective.

However, the new enhanced Eagle Strike Armor, integrated with the latest Gravitational Wave Field technology, greatly improved the reaction sensitivity, energy transfer efficiency, and structural strength of the new three-force composite shield.

Radium upgraded the power and shield systems of the Halo War Beasts into the Black Light War Beast Legion, but their weapons and equipment performance remained largely unchanged.

A miracle happened – thirty-six elite special operations team soldiers jointly formed a chain defense formation, which barely withstood the first wave of attacks from a hundred war beasts.

Although the situation still seemed precarious, at least they didn’t fall in the first round of the confrontation, and they could gain time!

Seeing this, Harrison Clark, who was rushing over, was overjoyed. If given more time, he could rush through.

With him joining the battle, they might even regain the upper hand.

Unexpectedly, taking advantage of the gap, Marthus and Oliver Yeoman sent even more information, insisting even more resolutely that others cover Harrison Clark’s retreat.

“Harrison Clark, you should go. Their current target is me, and you can definitely escape with your abilities. You are the one who can least afford to die among all of us,” Daniel Thompson transmitted to Harrison Clark again in the open channel.

At this point in the conversation, some quick-witted people began to understand some things.Harrison Clark: “Shut up! You don’t know shit! I’ll leave whenever I want to, strutting out! Get the hell out of myway!”

Harrison Clark cursed, gritting his teeth, but he had already dived into the back of an attack formation of a hundred war beasts, recklessly burning energy to launch a fierce attack.

“Boss, please go. We beg you. We won’t listen to you this time. Either you let us die in vain, or you give us some value. This is the first time I call you boss, and it’s also the last time.”

Daniel Thompson raised his hand to counterattack while speaking to Harrison Clark.

Harrison Clark ignored him, hating this kind of self-righteousness, always like this.

Harrison Clark still remembered the scene when Daniel Thompson gave up the spare energy of the Azure Dragon Armor for the first time, and as a result, he himself was pierced in the chest by a stray bullet.

Gradually, more and more Eagle Strike Warriors began to gather in the direction where Daniel Thompson was.

Those who still didn’t understand the meaning, seeing their comrades making such choices, also turned around one after another.

We unconditionally believe in the life-and-death decisions of our comrades!

The rest of the 60,000 fleeing soldiers stopped running and turned around one after another, rushing headlong with 60,000 against a million!

On the outermost circle, about 50,000 ordinary Eagle Strike Warriors, who had survived the battle with the battlecruisers, no longer tried to escape, but chose to disobey Nora Camp’s orders and turn back to fight!

On the other hand, seeing that the too war beasts failed to accomplish their mission and that there were signs of human soldiers gathering in that direction, the War Beast Legion quickly regrouped its forces.

Black Light War Beast squads from all directions were transferred over, converging in the cosmos from all over.

Harrison Clark was almost driven mad by these people.

But he couldn’t blame them for their decisions.

The target of the War Beast Legion was Lion in the first place.

“Harrison Clark, you go. If you withdraw, it will be a complete victory! Change of orders, cover Harrison Clark’s retreat!”

Even Nora Camp, who had completed the turnaround, accelerated forward.

She was not fleeing but rushing towards the 2,000 warships that were heading towards her, determined to break through the blockade.

There were too many Triangular Pyramid Warships concentrated in this area, and there were significant gaps in the surrounding area. As long as she forced her way through these 2,000 warships, Harrison Clark, with his five Pseudo­Curvature Engines, could leave!

“Kill! Harrison Clark, you go! This is an order!”

Nora Camp’s fingers on both hands trembled so fast that it was almost invisible to others.

Every time she trembled, she determined a new trajectory or shooting curve for the warships on the battlefield.

At the same time, precise instructions were transmitted from her brainwave system.

Important instructions related to the battle situation were spoken out from her mouth.

Her thoughts were instantly divided into five parts, giving different global or regional orders, with large-scale warship mobilizations and specific orders for certain weapons on specific warships.

She began to fight against radium’s incredible computing power with her own strength!

7,700 human warships and 16,000 radium warships began to exchange fire face-to-face in space.

Although radium is very good at controlling a small number of forces to suppress the majority of human forces, there have been many space wars where human forces have been at a disadvantage in the past. Almost every time, the human fleet was quickly and easily defeated.

But this time the situation changed. Under the perfect deployment of Nora Camp, 7,700 warships quickly integrated at an extremely fast speed, facing the first 2,000 Triangular Pyramid Warships directly.

More Triangular Pyramid Warships still needed to maintain the outer encirclement and could not get close in time!

The human fleet began to gain an advantage in force within a small range, with full firepower!

Bright flames exploded one after another in space.

The densely packed Triangular Pyramid Warships began to suffer battle casualties at an extremely fast rate, with nearly 700 destroyed in a very short time!

If it were in the past, radium would quickly disperse its charging formation and contract the outer encirclement, precisely controlling casualties.

But this time, the situation was different. More than 1,300 remaining Triangular Pyramid Warships still charged resolutely towards the flagship where Nora Camp was.

Harrison Clark was still fighting desperately on Daniel Thompson’s side.

He destroyed the Black Light War Beasts at an average speed of five per second, continuously.

He really wanted to scold everyone, “You are all fucking idiots!”

Do I need you to cover me?

No!

I can go if I want!

I don’t need your meddling.

As time passed, his mood quickly calmed down.

He understood a truth.

If he wanted to scold others as idiots, how much better could he be?

When seeing radium’s deployment, he should have soberly realized that no matter how hard he struggled, it would be truly impossible to save even one person this time.

From the very beginning, he shouldn’t have thought about covering others. It would have been better to simply embrace the will to die or decisively flee.

There is no point in holding on to wishful thinking. This is reality.

Forget it, admit defeat.

Anyway, his Ultimate Eagle Strike Armor was very reliable, and his energy reserves were still sufficient. He would fight alongside everyone until he was the last one standing and then leave. By the way, he would record all the videos of his escape and release them to boost the confidence of people in other bases in the Freedom Front.

Battle reports from other fronts were even more tragic!

Facing radium’s brand-new fleet and the Black Light War Beast Legion, humans had no power to fight back and retreated step by step.

The fierce war continued.

Total collapse was imminent.
