Chapter 2228: Chapter 2228: Wiped Out in One Go
Witnessing such terrifying firepower, even several tier-seven experts felt a chill in their hearts. Because they realized that the intensity of the power bursting forth in an instant was something they couldn’t match against that warship.
Although the warship wasn’t rated as tier-seven, the attack power of the combined battleship was truly terrifying.
It could originally contend with the weaker tier-seven, and among these, there were quite a few tier-sevens which weren’t weak.
These guys not only relied entirely on the power of the world intention to advance, but they also took paths that were either extremely unconventional or extremely extreme, resulting in their powers being extremely weak after reaching tier-seven.
Furthermore, even with the power of the world intention, it was hard to go further. These extremists found that even when facing this combined battleship, they might not win.
Ironically, this thing was still rated as tier six; they could feel it, so it wasn’t considered a violation.
"What should we do? At this rate, we are definitely not their match."
"Let the tier-seven experts fight, only they can win now."
There’s no choice, the tier-nine experts of the native world can’t act, at least that’s what they believed. Their tier-nines were like stone figures, and although the opponents had a consciousness, they too believed the opponents couldn’t make a move.
As for the tier-eights, it was the same story. Because the battle noise was too loud, tier-eight battles usually took place outside in the void. This wasn’t a place for warships to stay but the actual void, a chaotic area.
Once tier-eight experts fight in the native world, the punishment from the world intention would basically descend high.
The destruction range was too big, and the impact of law-infused attacks was also very long-lasting; the world intention wouldn’t allow them to cause a disturbance. Even in such a battle, none of the tier-eight experts dared to step in.
As for tier-seven, it’s not a problem as long as no significant chaos or destruction is caused.
However, the situation now isn’t that simple. The commander looked at the person speaking with a face that seemed to be looking at an idiot.
"How many tier-sevens should we use? Do you know how many tier-sevens they have?" Then the screen changed and they saw many people in various locations watching this side.
In such a battlefield, those daring not to seek refuge had at least the strength of tier-five. Those daring to approach the battlefield had at least tier-six strength. No one knew how many of them were the opponent’s tier-sevens.
Tier-sevens can indeed fight in the native world, but the condition is not to cause too much chaos and destruction.
But this time is different, the opponent’s tier-sevens were already waiting. Once they fight, the opponents would also engage, then it would become a tier-seven war, causing significant impact.
At present, it’s about fighting for a breath of air, contesting for some public sentiment and morale. But once a large-scale tier-seven battle breaks out, it’s not a small issue anymore. Ironically, the opponent’s tier-sevens far outnumbered their own, which was something they had calculated themselves.
If a real tier-seven war erupts, they will become sinners, and the consequences would be grim.
"But they already used great power first, we’re just retaliating."
"Idiot, look closely at the energy spectrum analysis. There isn’t any law’s power contained in their attack, not even the power of rules, it solely reached this level of power due to its potency. It’s rated tier-six, not tier-seven, do you understand?"
The opponent did not strike first. If they moved first, they would be put at a disadvantage.
The world intention won’t tolerate such things. An uproar leads to punishment for both sides, with the side that is first to act receiving a punishment that’s much more severe and difficult to bear.
It’s not about willingness; their tier-sevens wouldn’t listen to their orders.
After all, those who reached tier-seven are powerful. Even tier-eights find it hard to command them. Moreover, they were just an alliance, not a single entity, with no subordinate relationship between the top and the bottom. If things go badly, they could directly defect to the opponents. Expecting tier-sevens to take the risk and perish is asking too much.
Faced with this situation, everyone in the Command Center felt helpless. The opponent’s power was overwhelmingly more substantial.
"Bad news, a new type of warship has appeared in outer space." Suddenly, a voice broke the silence in the Command Center. Everyone glared angrily at the person delivering the report and then turned to the screen.
Sure enough, a new combined battleship appeared in outer space. The combined battleship was cooperating with conventional warships continuously clearing their warships, attacking and causing damage.
In the face of absolute power and overwhelming numbers, all they could do now was watch, and that’s it.
"Order the fleet to retreat. If this continues, we won’t have any resistance force left."
Their warships had already exhausted the production capabilities of many small cities and large cities alike. After all, they didn’t have Du You’s material conversion technology and could only rely on mining to achieve that.
Ironically, they were just an alliance, not a single entity. How could they achieve resource sharing?
Many places even ran out of resources, or came up against resource duplication and waste issues, leading to an inability to continue building new warships. It seems to confront the opponents effectively, internal integration must occur.
There are issues beyond just resource technology, among many other reasons. Additionally, they needed to speed up their research on the Mid-airCity. The Mid-airCity would not only boost morale but also increase living space, allowing densely populated areas to accommodate more people, which was critical.
The commander knew he was reaching the end of his role; someone had to take the blame for this, and he was the best candidate.
He wasn’t a tier-eight powerhouse, and even if he were, he’d probably be ousted right now.
Helpless, the commander issued a retreat order. As for how much they could retreat, it was left to fate.
Initially, the retreat resulted in chaos because many directly intervened to control their warships, gradually leading to a disordered formation and eventually a complete rout. Meanwhile, Du You’s warships seized the opportunity to pursue and attack relentlessly.
Countless fragments and sparks descended from the sky, causing the defensive barriers of some cities to tremble continuously.
Cities without defensive barriers suffered even more; buildings collapsed now and then, and some areas caught fire, resulting in significant losses in terms of lives and wealth. Meanwhile, the war drew to a close.
In this battle, Du You practically wiped out the opponent’s aerial forces. The warships that survived were few, and no one would be willing to risk them shortly.
These weren’t powerhouses, but their significance in the native world far surpassed that of powerhouses.
