Chapter 1307: Chapter 1167: Good Advice Can’t Persuade

The command from the Regimental Level Ship had just been issued, and the next moment, the fluctuations of alien energy suddenly vanished!

Only that Company Level warship was still stubbornly speeding away, not even deactivating its invisibility!

"Have they discovered us?" someone from the Anomalous Management Division sneered.

"Fire a warning shot first. If necessary, you may attack freely... Try to avoid severely damaging the other side!"

The Anomalous Management Division also realized that the other side was definitely hard to deal with, so they endeavored to avoid causing harm.

But can any force be stronger than the Anomalous Management Division? They didn’t believe so.

Thus, when needed, they would fight, primarily to avoid losing their spoils of war.

Six attack ships dived forward, charging towards the distant Company Level Ship.

Attack ships were much faster than Regimental Level Ships; apart from being unable to jump, they were the fastest starships.

With special ammunition, they could become the main force attacking Camp-level Ships or even Regimental Level Ships.

At this moment, the distance between the two sides had closed to six million kilometers.

Almost instantly, Little Lake noticed something unusual, "Boss, it seems the opponent laid an egg."

The term "laid an egg" was coined by Qu Jianlei, mainly referring to deploying small attack ships.

Actually, this Company Level Ship’s configuration was basically standard, and it shouldn’t have been able to detect attack ships at such a distance.

However, although Little Lake was an artificial intelligence, it had drifted alongside Qu Jianlei for too long and witnessed too many battles.

The opponent could calculate energy anomaly changes in nearby spaces, and so could it.

So even without observing the small ships, through various abnormal data, it could roughly guess their presence through calculation.

Qu Jianlei’s face darkened; the nutrient injection had already stored the alien space creatures into the space pouch, so... it was time to fight.

"Maintain invisibility, increase speed, prepare the attack ship for deployment."

There was only one small attack ship on the 6503 Ship, but it was better than nothing.

As the distance further closed in, their increase in speed was also detected by the Regimental Level Ship.

"Heh, only now thinking of escaping? Too late! Follow the protocol."

The six attack ships raced wildly, quickly narrowing the distance between the two sides to one million kilometers.

At this distance, effective communication could already be established.

But no matter how the six attack ships shouted, the fleeing Company Level Ship stubbornly ignored them, continuing to escape while invisible.

This behavior was a bit amusing, as if "covering one’s eyes meant others couldn’t see them."

Until the distance closed to over nine hundred thousand kilometers, the 6503 Ship finally abandoned invisibility, continuing its flight.

However, the attack ships, upon seeing the ship in full view, instantly understood why it had remained invisible.

The entire starship was in poor condition, riddled with holes and covered with wounds; it seemed a miracle it could still be used at all.

The leading attack ship, operated by someone from the Anomalous Management Division, was delighted, "No wonder they didn’t dare to risk jumping away; turns out it was like this."

Previously, when both sides were tens of millions of kilometers apart, if the Company Level Ship had activated its jump, it had a great chance of escaping.

However, the conditions for jumping are very demanding—for example, it is very sensitive to surrounding gravity.

Being close to a planet is absolutely out of the question, and small objects nearby pose some risk.

Not to mention that although they were far from the energy beam, it was the result of extremely unstable space.

Under such circumstances, even jumping a bit farther away couldn’t avoid being affected.

So, unless absolutely necessary, choosing a more distant locale for jumping was more sensible.

But now, once everyone saw the state of the opposing starship, they immediately understood: no wonder they dared not take the risk—they simply couldn’t.

With such a battered and tattered appearance, even in a safer place, no one would dare risk jumping.

As for how the other side ended up in this condition, was there any doubt? It must have been under attack within the energy beam.

Meanwhile, they also secretly admired the opponent: to come out from there and even gain something was truly remarkable.

They had already received some general information: even reconstructed Camp-level Ships dared not venture into the center, only to skim along the edges.

Regardless of the situation, everyone’s spirits were high: seeing the condition of the other side meant not much effort was needed.

Initially, they thought, even if the other side was a Company Level Ship, it surely had peculiar strengths, possibly facing unexpected setbacks.

Now it was simpler; the leading attack ship directly issued warning shots, "Continue connecting to the public channel!"

Shooting from nine hundred thousand kilometers away wouldn’t have much effect even if it hit; it was truly just a warning.

But looking at the opponent’s miserable state, everyone was a bit concerned: if they hit, hopefully, it wouldn’t disintegrate?

Yet in the next moment, the opponent’s starship hull glowed with light—actually, it was boosting its defense.

"Are they still resisting desperately? Heh, I really admire their courage."

Immediately, the public channel was connected, and a cold voice rang out.

"Is this endless? I suggest you stop now, don’t ask for trouble."

Can communicate? That’s perfect! The leading attack ship spoke,

"We are the Anomaly Affairs Management Division, currently cooperating with the military to enforce law together. Report your ship’s military code!"

The Anomalous Management Division’s deterrence against the military forces is not significant, but as long as the other party doesn’t have ulterior motives, they somewhat need to heed this.

However, joint law enforcement between the two parties changes everything: please understand that the military is standing on our side as well.

Lacking the protection of the military, an ordinary Company Level Ship doesn’t count for much.

The pursuers had always assumed that the opposite side was a warship, which should have military personnel onboard.

Even though the ship’s number has been painted over, isn’t it normal to do such a thing?

Yet, the icy voice on the opposite end sneered, "Anomalous Management Division... your grasp indeed extends quite far!"

Upon hearing this department, Qu Jianlei was flooded with past grievances and new resentments.

But the other party felt nothing was amiss, merely thinking that people onboard the 6503 Ship were being reckless.

"Reporting your origins is your only chance for self-rescue; otherwise, don’t blame us for being unsympathetic!"

In the next moment, Qu Jianlei coldly issued the command, "Attack!"

Good advice cannot dissuade those bent on self-destruction. The other side had pursued so far and rejected the final chance, so don’t blame him for being ruthless.

It was fortunate the opponent was using a military warship, otherwise upon hearing information about the Anomalous Management Division, he would’ve acted directly.

The Company Level Ship began to charge up, the Nutrient Injection and Flower Scorpion didn’t take any action.

During the earlier flight, the three had already completed all the preparations.

Flower Scorpion was still a bit uneasy, "Boss, can this work be handled by artificial intelligence?"

"All right, it’s no problem," Qu Jianlei replied solemnly.

The other party, seeing the 6503 Ship begin charging, could hardly believe their eyes, "Dare to resist?"

"Is this how you seek death?"

"Are the scars mere disguise? I heard there’s a powerful starship in the Celestial Hook Star Realm, but usually it disguises itself as a wreck."

"I’ve heard about disguised starships, but going for a stroll in an energy beam and coming out, does that require disguise?"

"All right, stop the bickering and commence attack! Keep control over the intensity!"

Small attack ships charge much faster—primarily because of the intact condition of each ship and smaller weapons having faster charge times.

In the next instant, the opponent also launched a small attack ship, which dodged agilely as soon as it exited the cabin.

At this moment, an order came from the rear Regiment Level Ship, "Have you started the attack? Be mindful of fire control."

The Regiment Level Ship had already heard the directive from the front but still felt uneasy, and reiterated it.

"Received," the leading attack ship replied, "Target hit, currently diminishing the opponent’s defenses."

Indeed, some of their attacks had already struck the opponent, but the opponent’s defenses... were formidable.

Though already battered and tattered, the resistance was indeed staunch.

However, people from the Anomalous Management Division weren’t anxious; their battle plan was to first deplete the opponent’s defense shields.

When the time comes, strike the enemy until they lose momentum, forcing even the most stubborn foes to surrender willingly.

This maneuver is very familiar and easy for both the Anomalous Management Division and the military.

In the past, they had stopped countless starships—some obstinate characters just don’t feel comfortable until thoroughly beaten!

Yet what they didn’t expect was, in the next moment, a yellow beam shot forth, directly destroying an attack ship.

The attack was sent out by the opponent’s small ship, just that single one.

Initially, everyone didn’t mind it, thinking it served only as harassment and distraction.

After all, in battles between small ships, maneuvering is key—everyone’s fragile, yet agile enough.

However, this particular ship delivered an exceptionally precise strike, showcasing an extraordinary battlefield anticipation capability!

The hit attack ship seemed to have willingly collided with it, the ship’s bow breaking open with a massive hole, instantly losing combat power.

The leading attack ship, seeing this, was outraged, "We’ve lost one attack ship, decided to intensify the firepower!"

This was merely notification to the rear Regiment Level Ship, after all, he was the frontline commander and had the authority to adapt spontaneously.

This authority mainly exists within the military; for someone from the Anomalous Management Division to issue such a command indicates he was already furious.

The casualties on the attack ship remain unclear, but for those from the Anomalous Management Division, such humiliation is intolerable!

The Regiment Level Ship in the rear swiftly responded, "Progressively... try to control it."

Emotions below must be considered from above; mindless suppression isn’t viable.

Yet immediately after, the remaining five attack ships were destroyed one after another, leaving only two.

Among them included the leading attack ship, which was the most pitiful, as it was directly blown apart!

As this scene unfolded, the Regiment Level Ship had just arrived at the battlefield, the commander’s eyes widened with fury.

The members of that attack ship were Anomalous Management Division elites, the leader was even the division’s rising star.

"Bastards, how dare you! Deploy two more teams of attack ships!"

By this time, the heavy firepower of the Regiment Level Ship still hadn’t initiated an attack.
