Chapter 1743 Hijacking Ships Again
"Are you ordering me now?"
"I'm just trying to help, that's all," Hye shrugged, before he started to take more warriors and gave them orders. "Sit on any altar you see, train and cultivate there, don't worry about anything else."
He didn't intend to move around, instead, he'd stay here, let the enemies come and then he'd attack them.
He wasn't worried at all. With his shield, nothing could hurt his ship. And with such insane space, he started to take tens of thousands of Soulers and Reapers, let them suit up, and wait.
The wait didn't last more than half an hour. During this, the leader listened to his advice, and moved his forces away, while giving space for Hye and his Soulers and Reapers to show off.
The enemy didn't miss what happened to their flagship by Hye. They instantly sent tons of ships, to attack this one. It was clear they knew how strong the shield of their flagships was, so they sent lots of forces to take it down.
And that was what Hye was waiting for! The moment he spotted such movement, he instantly put his warriors in a standby situation.
[Your task is to control the shield, alternate, and replace the ones exhausting their spiritual powers. Don't fire back, I repeat, don't fire back!] He sent this order to all of his warriors here, stressing over the not firing back point.
If they fired back, they'd risk harming the grand loot he was waiting for. As the enemy thought highly of the shield, then he should trust its ability to stop the incoming attacks. And yet there was a glaring issue that he had to solve, which was the low cultivation bases of his warriors.
He knew the strength of the shield depended on the entire formation built here, and the continuity of the spiritual power supply of the warriors activating it. Once more pressure was applied on the shield, it was expected that the spiritual power consumption rate to skyrocket.
He feared the moment part of his warriors would deplete their spiritual powers, the shield would grow weak, not enough to stop any more attacks.
Losing the ship he fought hard to get wasn't a favourable thing. In the end, the only solution he had was for his warriors to replace the ones getting exhausted. And that meant he needed a ton of his warriors to operate the shield.
This might be a huge problem if things were kept like this for other ships. But he doubted that. The main danger came from the excessive focus his ship was going to face when all of these ships fired at him. But the moment he'd control more ships, enough to build a fleet, he wouldn't need to worry about defending all the time.
As things progressed this far, the fight between the two sides started to look interesting for the grand fleet belonging to his universe. "This man, whoever he is, is a crazy son of b*tch! But I like him!" the leader laughed, before turning to his top followers, "Go and search for him. Someone like that won't be anybody. We went to that shitty place for ten years, and a lot must have happened during all this time."
"About the war, what shall we do, Major?" others asked their boss, and Major shrugged, "What else? We'll continue fighting. If that person can expand what he is doing here, or at least keep the enemy focused on him like that, then we can hunt many ships in areas nearby… Spread the orders, let's study the entire situation, find places where their numbers are decreasing fast, and we'll hit there with everything we got."
Major and his forces left the universe to the outer battlefield, seeking their promotion test. Yet they ended up facing a hard obstacle one time after another, spending roughly ten years away without achieving anything.
They had to exterminate one hostile force, and that was something they never managed to do. In the end, and after losing more than half of his initial forces, he decided to put an end to such a bad adventure, return home, and build again.
But his luck was so bad to run from one force and hit into another, one that was so stubborn and followed everyone all the way to here. This wasn't a random phenomenon, but it wasn't that common either.
The moment he saw what Hye did here he decided to go all out. It was still slim, but he saw a chance in what Hye was doing. If the latter could perform better, or at least keep what he was doing, then things would be better for Major and his forces.
As he ordered, his forces started to look for weaknesses to exploit in the middle of the enemy forces. They found lots of these weak spots around Hye as Major predicted, and they started using them to the fullest.
Major's forces suffered tons of setbacks during the last ten years. If not for their starting point being far, too far away from this universe, they'd have returned in the first year.
So the moment they got a chance to pay the enemies back, they showed a ferocity that even surprised Major and his elite generals.
Aside from all this, Hye spread his warriors out, attacking more ships and adding more to his arsenal. But he didn't try to fill any of these with his warriors. He simply got out, took the ships his warriors secured, and then returned to his flagship.
The enemies tried to attack him whenever he went out, noticing his actions after he did it for a few hours. Yet he was prepared for that, made his forces attack the enemy for the first time ever, opening fire to respond to them, forcing these ships to withdraw and drop hitting him.
And if there were any stubborn enemies, the type who wouldn't care about any of this and would keep firing at him, he had to take out his small ship and evade all the fire, before going out and resume collecting his loot.
