Chapter 1770 A Weird Situation
It was crazy! And Hye couldn't even catch up with most of them, ending up reaping little loot this time.
"If they spread over, where can they run to? Huh?" At this moment, he decided to throw away everything he planned before, "I'm going to tear the entire sector apart, let me see how they can run away this time, huh!"
In a storm of rage, he took out all of his Soulers and Reapers, then gave them a single order, "Spread out, take down any ship, kill anyone you meet, and then collect the ships and bring it back to me."
He intended to focus entirely on this sector. It might slow him down, but his gains would return to skyrocket, compared to the current terrible situation he had.
As he released his warriors, he kept watching them spreading chaos and death all over the place. It was chaotic, especially when both sides saw with their own eyes how these warriors were bad omen.
They tried everything, tried hitting them, tried running, but nothing worked. Perhaps trying to run away helped at some point, but soon enough they got to face the warriors or join the other sectors around.
Trying to join the sectors came at a great cost of course. Any sector had its outer border heavily filled with tons of fleets. And to try and pass-through this was literally a nightmare, especially with such deadly forces chasing them.
To make sure things were balanced, Hye took many ships, and armed them with normal warriors, before lending these to his Soulers and Reapers. It was like giving a snake wings to turn into a dragon. And that changed the entire battle for his sake.
No matter how they tried, the enemies couldn't run away from his warriors. Even when they tried to come and attack his fleet, the shields over them bought enough time for the Soulers and Reapers to do their magic and kill the forces inside these fleets.
It is futile to resist these. The only drawback was that this method took almost two weeks before the fleets of both forces got squeezed against the forces lining up the sectors around. By this moment, things started to shift towards Hye's sake, and tons of ships were cleared from their forces in no time!
It felt like he grew patient enough, and now it was time to reap all the benefits of doing that.
His warriors jumped over the enemies like hungry wolves. The enemy tried to fight back, tried to push their way through the densely packed fleets surrounding the sectors, but ended up either getting attacked by these or getting assaulted by Hye's warriors.
There wasn't a single way out from this, and they just hit a dead end. Hye watched all this using his ship's radar and didn't feel sorry for any of them. All he cared about was how to gain more ships, and not lose much from the crossfire going on out there.
But he had nothing to do but to give a few orders every now and then, rearranging his troops, and making sure they wouldn't miss any big hunt.
He waited for weeks to reach this stage, and so he made sure to take his time to gather as many fleets as possible. He couldn't move towards any location, as the fights were going everywhere and were too far away from him.
Besides he wouldn't make much difference about the course of these battles.
As for the ships, they were all gathered by his warriors, including the dead bodies of the races killed by his warriors.
"This is weird…" As there were a large number of fleets out there, it was hard to notice it at first. But after ten days of constant fighting, he could spot something new.
His Soulers and Reapers would attack any ship, take a few hours at most to clear it, before jumping off towards another one. But right now he noticed there were many ships that kept their shields intact, and kept running away despite getting attacked by many warriors.
He first doubted himself, then he had to ask Lucas about that. He asked him to check what was going on with these warriors, ending up hearing something strange.
[Sorry my liege, they attacked these ships but for a reason, they couldn't clear them for no obvious reason… Do you want to send more to attack them?]
[Hmm… Just let me know something, did they survive?] Hye got a hypothesis, and Lucas' answer made him sure about his conjuncture.
[No sire, they all died]
[Good, don't send more to hit these ships. And tell everyone about this, if they ever faced such a situation, they have to evade these ships, got it?]
Hye made sure Lucas would spread his orders, even if the latter didn't get what they meant.
"So… We have few level two or higher forces among these… That's expected…" Hye muttered to himself while rubbing his chin as he checked the radar and followed the ongoing battles.
This was the only possible scenario out there. His Soulers and Reapers could escape anything, but they weren't immune at the moment they tried to take down any target.
During this small window, they were vulnerable to getting killed. And he witnessed the fall of his warriors before in large numbers on the hands of far stronger enemies.
They could handle these enemies, by ganging up and flashing more times to take them down. But in return, they'd start suffering casualties on the hands of these enemies.
As Lucas stated clearly no one ever returned, it meant the difference was just too vast to overcome with numbers. This wasn't something shocking to Hye, as he knew his warriors were stagnant at level one, and there were still higher levels up there.
Yet as he fought many enemies so far and never met with such troublesome enemies, he forgot about such hypotheses.
"Or… We met such enemies before, but they were in low numbers, and my warriors could handle them using their numbers… This means these ships have lots of higher forces, in large numbers. The right thing to do is to take down the ships themselves, destroying them and killing others in fierce explosions…"
