Chapter 456: Chapter 456: They Forgot Su Wan Has Spatial Superpower!
This time might not seem long, but it depends on how long the enemy will attack.
If the enemy plans to wage a war of attrition, ten hours for them is far from enough!
Gu Zilan immediately called Uncle Gu Jue, "Uncle, the insectoid’s forces outside have all been diverted to the Empire Main Star, how’s it looking on your end?"
"We’re about to land on their base star."
"Hmm, be extra careful. We can hold our own here!"
It was the final moment, they couldn’t fail at the last hurdle!
Gu Zilan immediately ordered Agros and the Fifth Starship Fleet to dispatch more troops to go out and battle, depleting the enemy’s strength.
"Safety first, our objective is to defend and buy time, not to counter-attack, understand?"
"Yes!"
Su Wan and her team received the message, and as they were withdrawing, she looked back at the transparent protective layer outside.
A gigantic insectoid starship was parked above it, fiercely attacking in this direction.
Her brain-computer pinged.
"Wanwan, are you near the protective layer?"
Listening to the familiar and deep voice in her brain-computer, Su Wan nodded, "Yes, Ajue, don’t worry about me. If it gets too dangerous, I’ll use spatial teleportation. Xiaochen is in the Imperial Palace and is safe too. How are things going on your end?"
"We’re about to land."
Su Wan’s heart clenched. Once they landed, it would be the final confrontation!
"Ajue..."
"Bai Ze’s protective layer can withstand attacks for about ten hours. When you go out to attack the enemy, you must ensure your safety, got it?"
"Hmm."
The situation was urgent and they couldn’t talk for long. As soon as the communication ended, Su Wan immediately led her teammates and rushed out.
Theoretically, the protective layer could defend for around ten hours, but if the enemy increased their firepower, it would be less than ten hours!
If the protective layer was breached, the residents on the main star would be in danger!
The crazier the insectoids attacked here, the more intense the battle would likely be for Gu Jue and the others!
Su Wan suddenly felt a piercing pain in her lower abdomen. Clutching her stomach, she looked up to Lin Yu, who was piloting the ship, "The insectoid starship to the northwest has too strong an attack; let’s go and blow it up!"
"Yes!"
Sheng An suddenly said, "Xiaowan, this starship has fought with us before."
Su Wan looked and immediately remembered it was Su Man’s insectoid husband’s starship!
How should one put it? Su Man’s will to live was quite strong; she was like a cockroach that couldn’t be killed despite several attempts.
Instead of living a good life, she kept causing trouble.
Su Wan thought back to Su Zhen’s death... it could be said that Su Zhen was killed by the insectoids and Du Weiwei!
At that moment, because the two starships were too close, a signal came through.
Sheng An turned, "Xiaowan, the enemy starship is sending a video signal!"
Su Wan half-lowered her eyes, "Accept it."
Sure enough, Su Man’s projection soon appeared on the screen. Su Man was heavily pregnant, clad in exquisite clothing, and looked well, seemingly living a luxuriant life in the insectoid’s main base?
Su Man: "Su Wan, long time no see."
Seated in a black swivel chair, Su Wan’s mouth slightly curled up, "Yeah, indeed, it’s been several years since Su Zhen was killed by your mother. Although I was very disappointed in Su Zhen as a father, I still have to avenge his death."
The expression on Su Man’s face shattered in an instant, and she gritted her teeth, "My mom was also killed by Su Zhen!"
Wasn’t she supposed to get angry? Why did she lose her temper at just one sentence?
Su Wan: "True, Du Weiwei is dead, but she got what she deserved! Now that she’s dead, I can’t take my revenge on her, so I have to go after you instead—the daughter has to pay the mother’s debt."
"You!" Su Man shook with rage in a matter of seconds, but the insectoid Commander beside her watched Su Wan calmly through the screen, "Bullying my wife like this, I’ll remember that. I remember you, you’re Gu Jue’s wife. If I could kill you, perhaps Gu Jue would no longer have the energy to continue fighting."
Su Wan shook her head, "Is this the first time you’ve clashed with him? If you understood his combat style, you’d know he won’t withdraw his troops until he’s completely destroyed your base."
"Oh, I almost forgot, you’re sent to be cannon fodder, to rescue Zhao by besieging Wei, and have actually been abandoned by your queen. As cannon fodder, you don’t have the qualification to face off against Ajue."
"Clever tongue indeed."
"Thanks for the compliment. Besides, your wife’s about to give birth, right? In this situation, if your ship gets blown up in the universe, maybe you high-ranking insectoids have a chance to survive, but Su Man, being a pure human, probably won’t make it!"
The insectoid’s expression indeed changed, and he immediately cut off the communication and went to contact the other starships.
They’re about to attack Su Wan’s starship together!
After pondering for a moment, Su Wan turned to Pandora and said, "Pandora, you take command of the starship now."
"Captain, what are you going to do?"
"To buy more time for Ajue and the others."
Although the protective layer seemed to last a long while, once it actually failed, all the residents on the Empire Main Star would be in danger.
The only way was to distract these insectoids and then draw their attention to different starships.
If the attack power decreased, the protection of the protective layer would be strengthened.
Just when all the insectoids were about to attack Su Wan’s Squad Nine starship, they suddenly received a signal from another starship, and Su Wan appeared on it again.
All the insectoids were stunned!
"What’s going on? Isn’t Su Wan on a different starship?"
"Exactly, we just rushed over here, how did she end up on another one?"
"So, which starship should we focus our attacks on?"
The attack immediately fell into disarray.
The strength of insectoids is their strong obedience to orders, but their weakness is their lack of maneuverability.
Meanwhile, the Main System Bai Ze said to Gu Zilan, "Your Majesty, since the protective layer is now receiving 80 percent less attack power, given these conditions, the protective layer can maintain its integrity for over fifteen hours!"
Gu Zilan was stunned. Why had the enemy’s attack power suddenly weakened?
"Quick, check what is happening outside!"
Before long, someone reported what Su Wan had done. The insectoids had attempted to attack the starship Su Wan was on, trying to distract Gu Jue.
But they had forgotten that Su Wan possessed spatial superpowers.
Considering the short distances involved, and the fact that Su Wan was teleporting alone, it was quite easy for the moment, and she easily outmaneuvered those insectoids trying to capture her, making them chase their tails!
As a result, the enemy’s firepower was weakened.
Upon hearing this, Gu Zilan’s handsome face turned pale. Oh no, his aunt might be in danger!
