Chapter 518: The Weakest Link
Translator: Yamir Moon
_______________________________________________________________
With so many spaceships here, as long as he can devour them at the right time then quickly escape, he will be able to increase his strength while constantly weakening Guthro’s strength.
Eventually, this fleet will be devoured by him.
Fang Yun flew around Guthro’s fleet. With the help of the great turtle, he can remain hidden in the depth of the void. No one can detect his existence!
He was looking for the weakest link of the fleet. As long as he finds it, he won’t hesitate to launch a storm-like attack!
Almost half a month later, Fang Yun finally got acquainted with this fleet. He now completely understand their distribution and formation.
First of all, this fleet can be divided into three parts, the seventh, sixth, and fifth heaven fleets. The fleet of each heaven is under the control of their respective commanders in normal times.
However, Fang Yun could also feel that there is an existence above the entire fleet, controlling and coordinating it as a whole. Although these three fleets have clear boundaries between each other, they appear to be relatively harmonious.
Of the three fleets, the largest is naturally the Seventh Heaven fleet, which has 200,000 spaceships, but the most powerful is the Fifth Heaven fleet, which has only 50,000 spaceships.
“If I fight against the fifth heaven fleet head-on, I’m afraid that I will be killed.”
Fang Yun thought internally. The threat that that fleet constitutes to him is too great. Every time they passed next to it, the giant turtle shook with fear.
Both of them had a feeling that withstanding an attack wave from them is enough for them to die.
After many days of investigation, Fang Yun had come to a firm conclusion. He might be able to survive if he attacks the seventh or sixth heaven fleet, but the fifth heaven fleet has the ability to quickly kill him.
Fang Yun made up his mind to never face them head-on. If he doesn’t handle this attack correctly, he might die here.
“Recently, my reputation value has increased by another 40 billion…”
Fang Yun immediately thought of the attack he launched on the remnant fleet half a month ago.
His reputation value has increased by another 40 billion, granting him two skill points rewards. After getting enough skill points, Fang Yun didn’t hesitate to upgrade “Annihilation Antimatter Bomb”, increasing its might by several folds.
This skill has become even more terrifying now.
Apart from the fifth heaven fleet, he has the confidence to fight against any of the two other fleets head-on. As a result, he might be seriously injured and exhausted, but the fleet will definitely be greatly damaged, or even destroyed!
Unfortunately, the reality is cruel. These three fleets won’t give him the chance to fight each of them head-on. They will attack him together as an allied force.
“If my strength increases by a few more folds or even a dozen folds, I should have the qualification to fight them head-on.”
Fang Yun quietly coiled in space, thinking internally. According to his guess, after getting maxed out. The might of the “Annihilation Antimmater Bomb” should greatly increase, giving him enough firepower to destroy everything within a radius of ten million kilometers.
A single strike can destroy a thousand planets, but this is still not enough…
“It would be great if new skills can appear after the next evolution.”
Fang Yun thought internally.
If a new skill appears, coupled with the maxed out “Annihilation Antimatter Bomb” and “Annihilation Black Hole”, he should have enough firepower to deal with this giant fleet.
Fang Yun started thinking about the weakest point of the three fleet alliance.
The three fleets are forming an arrow-type formation, with the 200,000 spaceships of the seventh heaven ahead, and the other two heavens fleets behind.
The seventh heaven fleet forms the arrowhead and the second half of the shaft. Between the two, the sixth heaven fleet forms the first half of the shaft, and the fifth heaven fleet forms the end of the arrow. This formation allows them to traverse the universe at an alarming speed.
For now, he can’t provoke the fifth heaven fleet, hence he mustn’t get close to the end of the arrow. The seventh heaven fleet at the head of the arrow also can’t be touched or else he will right into their trap.
Eliminating all the unsuitable options, what is left is the sixth heaven fleet forming the first half of the shaft. To break the formation, that is his only choice.
“If that’s the case, let’s attack that place first.”
Fang Yun made up his mind, then started thinking about the perfect time to attack the fleet.
During this period of time, Nadu, Pound, and the rest of the remnant fleet have been completely integrated into this support fleet, becoming the high-levels of their respective support fleets.
Of course, due to so many defeats, their status in the reinforcement fleet is not very high. Even some people with lower military ranks have more right to speak than them.
Regarding this, neither of them paid much attention.
The only thought they had in their minds is to find the great serpent.
In the past half month, they didn’t find any trace of the great serpent. This greatly annoyed Guthro.
They came here to quickly slaughter the monsters and deal with the mess their forces have caused. The war reporters they have dragged along have already started to complain. Their buzzing has caused a headache to Guthro.
“What the hell is going on with you? Haven’t found the trace of the giant serpent yet?”
Guthro started feeling a little anxious.
“Commander Guthro, maybe the great serpent found some remote place and fell into sleep after feeling your arrival?”
Nado said hesitantly to Guthro.
Guthro frowned, thinking carefully about this possibility. After thinking for some time, he said.
“If this is the case, it will be troublesome.”
He didn’t want to stay here for a long time. It’s okay to stay for some time, but if he stays for too long, his status and power will be affected. His political opponents back in the fifth heaven will not pass up this opportunity to cause trouble.
This isn’t the worst. At least he won’t be affected if he brings back the giant serpent. However, If he stays here for such a long time, then return empty-handed, his troubles will be great.
“Where is the person representing the eighth heaven? They have monitors nearby, right?”
After thinking for a while, Guthro suddenly asked.
The contact between the eighth heaven and Pound and Nadu was broken in the past few days. They know that the support fleet has arrived and that the remnant fleet has merged with them.
More importantly, these people don’t want them to join at all, hence they simply composed a big fleet of their own, then started wandering in space.
“I have contacted them before. They said that the great serpent had never appeared next to the monitors again.”
Pound stood up and reported to Guthro.
“Huh?”
Guthro raised his brows. This time, he is feeling really troubled.
“Forget it, let everyone pay attention. Don’t miss any detail!”
“Yes!”
All of Guthro’s subordinates that were present at the scene nodded, including Pound and Nadu.
Unknown to Guthro and his subordinates, the giant serpent that they were looking for had always been near their fleet.
“Well, the weakest link should be here.”
Fang Yun thought while looking at a certain area of the fleet.
