Chapter 283: The annihilation of the United Fleet
"Based on the calculation of time, it won’t be long before the United Fleet finds the Dawn. "
"This time, the Dawn is doomed! Faced with the encirclement of the United Fleet, there’s no possibility of resistance! "
"How long do you think the Dawn can hold out? "
"Hold out? You really dare to think! In my opinion, even Waldo is dead. What’s the point of holding on? Surrendering directly sounds good, doesn’t it? Maybe you can even save your own life! "
"Makes sense, we shouldn’t talk about how long the Dawn can hold out, we should talk about when the Dawn will surrender! "
"Hahaha, you’re right! "
"That’s being merciful. In my opinion, just kill them directly! "
In the chat channel, everyone is not optimistic about the Dawn. No one thinks the United Fleet’s operation will fail. Because the gap in strength between the two sides is just too great.
However, no one knows that the current United Fleet is fleeing like a bereaved dog. How mighty they were before, and how embarrassed they are now! The five Noah’s Arks united and attacked, with the five Controllers in command. It was originally a crushing force against an
Noah’s Ark without Controllers! Who could have expected that they would actually be defeated!
Above the vast sea. A rare naval battle is erupting. The battle is quite intense!
Two warships have already been destroyed and sunk deep into the sea!
In addition, one frigate was hit, slowing down significantly, and thick smoke rose from its stern!
On the hit frigate, various ship-borne cannons are firing frantically.
However, in the direction they are firing, there is only a vast, endless ocean, and there is nothing there. It’s like they’ve gone insane!
Only the crew on the frigate truly understand how desperate they are at this moment. They’ve been fighting for so long and still can’t locate the enemy!
They can only approximate a general area based on the trajectories of torpedoes and shells for counterattacks. They hope to hit one or two shots. However, it’s been totally ineffective. They can already anticipate their fate.
Either they’ll be hit by the mysterious warship’s gunfire and be blown to pieces.
Or they’ll sink into the sea along with the warship.
"Brothers, we have no way out. Don’t conserve ammunition, fire at will! We can’t escape now. If we can kill one or two, it’s not in vain! Fire at will! Kill them!" shouts the captain of the frigate.
It can be said that this is their last bit of stubbornness. The frigate has been hit, and it’s getting farther and farther from the other two warships.
The captain tried to contact the five Controllers several times, hoping they would provide some cover. However, what they received was silence.
"Could it be that even the five Controllers are afraid?"
"Why? Why aren’t they coming to rescue us?"
"Yeah! Weren’t we in this together? How could they just abandon us like this?"
"Damn it! We worked for them, and when disaster struck, they easily abandoned us. So disappointing!"
"You won’t be able to escape either! Hahaha, let’s die together!"
At this moment, the emotions of disappointment and feeling abandoned quickly spread through the damaged frigate. As members of the United Fleet, they were easily abandoned at a critical moment!
Meanwhile, in the command room of the destroyer.
The faces of the five Controllers looked extremely grim.
Among them, the one with the worst expression was the Controller of the Victorious.
Because the frigate that was hit belonged to the Victorious, he naturally received the distress signal from that frigate. He immediately got furious and ordered Burke to go back for the rescue. However, Burke said, "The situation we’re in now is very clear to everyone. The strength of the mysterious warship is beyond our expectations. Therefore, we need to act cautiously."
One after another, several warships were sunk in an instant. It was truly chilling. Even the elusive and mysterious warship instilled genuine fear in them. Unable to locate the enemy’s whereabouts, they could only passively endure the attacks. If they dared to stop, it might not be long before the remaining two warships became very dangerous.
Then, he added, "Alright, let’s hear everyone’s opinions and decide whether to go to the rescue of the Victorious frigate!"
This was followed by a heated argument.
"Rescue what? What’s there to rescue? We’ve barely managed to escape. Going back now is just walking into death, isn’t it?"
"We’re not a match for that mysterious warship. Going back would be futile!"
"Short-sighted! People’s morale is low now. If we abandon the Victorious frigate, how will the lower ranks view us? Will they still be willing to risk their lives for us in the future?"
"Yes, when we return to the various Noah’s Arks, our status will face a serious challenge!"
Moreover, even if we don’t attempt a rescue, we won’t have a great chance of escaping! If the three warships gather together, perhaps we still have a fighting chance!"
Bang!
At this moment, Avery suddenly burst in, looking anxious. As soon as the five Controllers saw this expression, their hearts sank. Sure enough, the next moment, Avery solemnly stated, "Latest update: the Victorious frigate has been destroyed!"
Boom!
The five of them, especially the Controller of the Victorious, abruptly stood up. The Controller of the Victorious swayed and turned pale as a sheet.
Damn it! How is this possible?!
How could this happen so quickly?! We just made the decision to rescue, and it’s already sunk? Could it be that the enemy has a means of listening to our conversations and is intentionally opposing us?
How could this happen so quickly? This was a frigate, equipped with advanced weapon systems, much stronger than a battleship. I thought it could hold out for quite a while, but now...
The Controller of the Victorious looked dazed. The blow he received was too great. A frigate was essentially the foundation of his standing. Now, it’s gone!
On the other side, Burke slumped into a chair.
He waved his hand and said, "Order the fleet to retreat at full speed! The enemy just sank one of our warships, but dealing with us won’t be that easy. Also, don’t overthink this. As the saying goes, as long as we’re still alive, anything is possible! Let’s wait and see! As long as we’re alive, someday, we’ll find that mysterious warship and make everyone on it pay with their lives!"
The other four didn’t say much, just nodded in silence.
Up to this point, the entire United Fleet was left with only one destroyer and one frigate. The losses were devastating.
Meanwhile, on the Invincible.
As the frigate was sunk, a burst of enthusiastic applause erupted. However, Waldo didn’t share the same excitement as the others because there were still two warships remaining.
Especially the true high-ranking members of the United Fleet are still alive and well!
Next, Waldo ordered, "Full speed ahead! Our target is to destroy the entire United Fleet, including the two warships trying to escape ahead! Furthermore, according to reliable intelligence, the high-ranking members of the United Fleet are on that destroyer! They are the top priority! They must be eliminated!"
Calvert immediately responded loudly. "Understood!"
In the next moment, the Invincible began to advance at full speed. The Invincible had highly advanced technology, equipped with powerful engines and state-of-the-art radar systems!
Therefore, not only was it fast, but even though the two warships of the United Fleet had already fled several kilometers away, they couldn’t escape the surveillance of the Invincible.
Soon, the Invincible caught up with the last two warships.
At Waldo’s command, "Fire! Sink them for me!"
Instantly, the Invincible unleashed its full firepower. Ship cannons fired, torpedoes were launched. This time, the Invincible held nothing back. One against two! Waldo was unrelenting!
The Invincible’s formidable firepower could suppress the enemy. Moreover, the Invincible had a considerably powerful firepower interception system.
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Boom!
After each round of firepower, the Invincible changed direction and continued its assault, leaving the enemy confused.
On the other hand, the United Fleet was in a very difficult position. They could only judge the basic direction of the mysterious warship based on the trajectory of the shells and torpedoes. Then, relying on their experience, they fired at will!
The majority of shells missed by a thousand miles, let alone hitting the Invincible!
Damn it, how can we fight like this? We can’t fight at all!
"We can’t even pinpoint their location; we’re just taking hits passively! Fortunately, we have relatively strong defensive capabilities, but it won’t hold for much longer! This cannot continue! In a short while, our entire fleet will be completely obliterated! But what can we do? We’re helpless!"
"Our warships and that mysterious warship seem to be on different levels! Exactly, how can there be such a monstrous warship in this world? It can actually achieve this level of invisibility? We’re simply not a match!"
In the United Fleet, everyone was frustrated, nearly spitting blood. Even though they had the advantage in numbers and the quantity of warships, it was all futile!
After several rounds of exchange, the two warships of the United Fleet were already in a pitiful state, battered and bruised. The enormous hulls were emitting thick smoke.
Both the frigate and the destroyer were in ruins. On the other hand, the Invincible under Waldo’s command, due to not fully exposing its position, intercepted the few shells that managed to hit.
It could be said that it emerged unscathed.
Before long, the heavily damaged frigate and destroyer began to list heavily and slowly sink. The United Fleet was annihilated!
