877 – Inside Enemy Territory
TL: BluVerse
Upon receiving Lan Xuanyu’s approval, Bai Xiuxiu’s Skywing mecha quickly reduced its jet propulsion, revealing signs of insufficient energy. The capture beam from behind had caught up again, pulling it back once more.
At this moment, the Star Wars Experimental Class warship finally arrived. From a distance, Lan Xuanyu ordered the auxiliary cannons to fire simultaneously, heading straight for the enemy warship.
To induce internal damage to the enemy, they also needed to attract their attention from the outside. As Bai Xiuxiu had anticipated, dodging such a massive enemy warship was challenging. However, the enemy activated a thick yellow protective shield, blocking all the auxiliary cannon attacks. Simultaneously, all twenty-four auxiliary cannons on the enemy’s side opened fire, forming a crossfire in space and advancing towards Lan Xuanyu’s team.
Although the enemy warship was large, it was still a meteor-class assault warship. Surprisingly, their auxiliary cannons had three times the firepower of Lan Xuanyu’s team. It was terrifying.
The Star Wars Experimental Class warship quickly maneuvered, skillfully counterattacking and evading in space while maintaining a safe distance. They used surrounding asteroids as cover, trying to avoid being hit by the enemy’s auxiliary cannons.
The enemy’s energy was abundant, showcasing formidable firepower. They continued to attack while slowly closing in. Simultaneously, capture nets were released indiscriminately, covering the surrounding space.
Capture nets were not only effective against interstellar fighters but also useful against warships. Larger warships like meteor-class assault warships, if hit by capture nets, could experience electronic system damage. If it were a meteor-class reconnaissance ship, being captured directly would be a common occurrence.
Since the enemy had detected them, they had no intention of letting them go. The capture nets were released in all directions to restrict the warship’s movement and prevent them from escaping. At the same time, the capture beam had pulled Bai Xiuxiu’s Skywing mecha toward the enemy’s warship.
Bai Xiuxiu seemed to have given up resistance, showing no movement.
However, what the enemies couldn’t see was that she was currently sitting cross-legged inside the mecha, silently recovering from her previous exertion and adjusting her state. A shining silver spear was also placed beside her.
If Teacher Wu were here, he would undoubtedly recognize the spear that once almost tarnished his reputation. It was none other than a divine artifact, the Silver Dragon Spear!
As the graduation exam approached, Lan Xuanyu had the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, but Bai Xiuxiu had been without her weapon. Therefore, Nana lent her the Silver Dragon Spear.
In terms of pure combat skills, among the seven-person squad, Bai Xiuxiu still ranked first. She had spent the longest time with Nana, and under the guidance of the Abyssal Demon Dragon Queen, her combat strength had risen rapidly over the years. Within the team, in a one-on-one confrontation, she was the only one capable of contending with Tang Yuge until Lan Xuanyu broke through to five-ring. Before that, in internal confrontations, she and Tang Yuge would always be placed on opposite sides.
So, at least from the perspective of their classmates, Tang Yuge was undoubtedly the strongest in the class, and Bai Xiuxiu or Yuanen Huihui would be second.
Yuanen Huihui excelled in long-range attacks, while Bai Xiuxiu was naturally much stronger in melee combat.
Lan Xuanyu commanded the warship to retreat behind a massive asteroid, with radar fully activated, monitoring the situation of the surrounding capture nets. Occasionally, he peeked out, using the auxiliary cannons to counterattack the enemy while looking for large asteroids to retreat slowly, attempting to escape the enemy. He also occasionally directed the auxiliary cannon attacks toward the direction of the capture beam, as if trying to save a comrade.
However, all the attacks from the auxiliary cannons were intercepted by the enemy’s auxiliary cannons. The number of enemy auxiliary cannons was simply too high!
They waited, quietly anticipating an opportunity.
“Frenzie, prepare for support,” Lan Xuanyu commanded Liu Feng, who was also outside.
“Understood.”
Although Liu Feng was outside, he could hear the communication and commands from the warship. After many years of cooperation, he naturally understood what Lan Xuanyu wanted him to do.
Bai Xiuxiu’s Skywing mecha was finally pulled in front of the enemy warship. The protective shield briefly opened, pulling the mecha inside. A powerful electronic flow instantly surged, paralyzing all electronic devices of the Skywing mecha.
Bai Xiuxiu had already turned off all devices a moment ago to avoid any actual damage to the Skywing mecha.
Inside, she had released her Two-Word Battle Armor, creating a thick layer of ice to seal herself.
This was a pure ice layer, insulating against any impact from electronic flows.
In the next moment, the mecha was drawn into the depths of the enemy warship.
Inside.
Lan Xuanyu narrowed his eyes, continuing to control the warship while anxiously waiting. He had confidence in Xiuxiu, but excessive concern could lead to chaos. Moreover, he was worried that there might be a powerful opponent inside the enemy warship that Xiuxiu couldn’t handle.
On the other side, Bai Xiuxiu’s mecha was captured and taken into the enemy’s interior. A group of people was already waiting next to the mecha.
All of them were fully armed soldiers, aiming dozens of soul-guided laser guns at the mecha’s cockpit.
The leader, tall but with a noticeably youthful face, was the only one among them not wearing protective gear. He looked around twenty years old.
“I guess the pilot inside has been paralyzed by our electric current, right? But how do we open the mecha cockpit? It looks pretty nice. That series of maneuvers just now was impressive! Definitely an ace pilot. Haha, we’ve caught ourselves an ace pilot,” the young man said, gesticulating excitedly.
“It’s better not to damage this mecha; it looks much better than ours. This is a real prize.”
“But how do we open it?”
“Should we try prying it open? With a mechanical arm?”
The people around chatted away, and judging from the sound, none of them seemed to be older.
While they were still discussing, the cockpit cover of the mecha suddenly opened. Yes, it opened by itself.
Before freezing herself, Bai Xiuxiu had already set a timer switch.
In the gaze of the group of young people, the cockpit slowly opened, revealing the interior.
“It opened by itself? Let me take a look.” The leader released circles of soul rings, at least six of them. Subsequently, a dazzling Two-Word Battle Armor with gorgeous patterns covered his entire body. He soared into the air, flapping his wings, and flew up.
The others raised their soul laser guns, ready to respond at any time.
As the young man reached the top of the mecha and looked inside, his expression became somewhat dazed.
What he saw was a large block of ice, but it was transparent and crystal clear, allowing a clear view of the interior. Inside, there was a woman covered entirely in a Two-Word Battle Armor. Although she was sitting in the mecha, her perfect figure was still evident at a glance. The only thing not covered by the face mask was her eyes. The female Soul Master inside had her eyes closed, but her eyelashes were exceptionally long. A beauty, definitely a beauty.
The young man was in the prime of his youth, and he suddenly became ecstatic, shouting down below, “There’s a self-frozen Soul Master inside. Probably frozen to protect against our electric current. Oh, and it’s a girl, very likely a beauty. Hahaha! We’ve hit the jackpot this time.”
“Jia Ming, get her down and let us take a look,” someone below immediately called out.
“Okay, you guys wait.” The young man named Jia Ming extended his hands, embraced the ice block, and flew down from the mecha’s cockpit, landing on the ground gracefully.
