Chapter 1178: Railgun
What a pity...
Condensed into a vast sword aura over a hundred meters long.
As if wielding a super huge sword, Lin An expressionlessly cleaved the warship before him in half.
"Boom boom boom! Boom!"
Firelight flashed.
The warship, split vertically from head to toe, was ripped apart straight away, like a sliced sausage; the damaged wiring burst into clusters of sparks in space, and the fortunate Heaven-Eye People who hadn't died were sucked out of the warship's interior as they screamed amid sudden decompression.
For a moment, the warship debris mixed with a large number of Heaven-Eye People, floating in space like trash.
There was no mercy whatsoever.
Lin An gave no thought to how many Heaven-Eye People he would kill by blasting the warship.
Since they dared to attack him first, he naturally would not hold back.
All he cared about was whether he could capture a high-level individual.
In the first warship he blasted, he captured no one; the reason was simply that he was unfamiliar with the warship's internal structure, and he accidentally killed the Heaven-Eye People in the core cabin.
Fortunately, in the second warship he did capture someone.
Looking at the Heaven-Eye Person in his hand with golden hair and delicate skin, Lin An without hesitation continued to Blink with them.
He intended to Blink into the next warship and then directly interrogate for information.
The situation was temporarily better than expected.
He had thought the Heaven-Eye People would launch other strikes, but now it seems their laser weapons might be their main means of attack?
For a moment, he wasn't in a rush either.
Although the warship's material was clearly superior to any known alloy on Earth, with his third-rank peak strength it was practically like paper.
As for the electromagnetic shield, it was just so; it seemed more suited for defending against kinetic weapons.
Against the destructive power of spiritual energy, its effect shouldn't be too bad.
"Strong offense, weak defense.."
"But we also shouldn't underestimate..."
After Blinking into another warship's interior again, Lin An unceremoniously threw the Heaven-Eye Person who looked like a captain onto the ground.
His appearance point happened to be the core cabin, where there were not a few Heaven-Eye People around.
Perhaps seeing Lin An, this kind of mutant alien species for the first time, the Heaven-Eye People in the core cabin, reacting instinctively, turned pale and instinctively grabbed their weapons, charging at him to kill.
"Courting death.."
After glancing at the handheld weapons of this group of Heaven-Eye People, Lin An recognized their general structure.
It seemed to be some kind of electromagnetic rifle.
"Bang!!"
After directly unleashing Arcane Strike, as the Arcane Torrent with a destructive aura spewed out, the Heaven-Eye People rushing forward instantly exploded into a cloud of debris.
Scarlet blood smeared the entire warship interior, instantly startling the captured captain so much that his whole body shuddered.
"I ask..."
Without further nonsense, just as Lin An was about to speak to interrogate.
In an instant, his face suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but blurt out a curse.
Damn!
Only to see that, several kilometers away, the remaining warships launched an attack on him without hesitation. Although he had destroyed three of them, compared to the total fleet size, this loss was merely a drop in the ocean.
Blinding white light stretched across space, forming a dense net of light that struck.
Was the person he captured not high enough rank? Or what was going on?
Unusually, Lin An also realized he had misjudged.
He had thought that, having captured a captain and hiding inside an intact warship, these Heaven-Eye People would surely hesitate to attack for fear of harming their own. But he never expected that they would not hesitate at all, launching the attack directly.
Sensing the forty-two laser strikes coming at him instantly, left with no choice, Lin An, seeing his remaining Blink uses almost exhausted, had to activate the Uninterrupted State to brace for a hard hit.
This is nothing like how it's portrayed in movies..
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't they be sending someone to negotiate? At least that's how sci-fi movies portray it.
Lin An couldn't help but mutter a complaint, and he couldn't be bothered to manage the Heaven-Eye People captain he had captured.
Under such bombardment, they were likely vaporized outright along with the warship.
"Boom boom! Boom! Boom!"
Facing their own side's attack, the Heaven-Eye People inside the warship fell into despair; they didn't even have time to let out a wail before being dissolved and vaporized by the continuous high-energy lasers.
The entire warship, like a beehive, exploded with a roar after its engine was hit.
"Did you kill him!?"
"No! Not yet!"
"That monster's strength is at least third-rank advanced or higher!"
At the same time, the captains of other warships who had opened the communications network all grimaced at the information coming from the detectors.
They had thought the second strike would wipe out Lin An, but they never expected that, in the face of his counterattack, they would end up losing three warships instead.
Although the loss wasn't great, since the Apocalypse they had never encountered such a situation!?
How could there be such a powerful alien species!?
In their shock, the warships mobilized by the entire hive network rushed over quickly; moreover, numerous small craft resembling fighter jets swarmed toward Lin An like bees.
As they prepared to launch the next attack.
In an instant, a fierce gleam flashed in Lin An's eyes.
Even a clay figure has a bit of fire in it, let alone him.
Isn't it that a warship doesn't care?
What about those one hundred ships then?!
Sensing that 7% of his spiritual energy had been used up, Lin An's killing intent grew stronger. He refused to believe he couldn't seize a High Level for information! Amid the fleet, it was clear that several warships each about a kilometer long loomed, resembling flagships.
Then..
His resolve was firm.
Lin An let out a cold laugh and directly activated the long-range teleport on his shoes.
Unlike the short-distance displacement of the Blink skill, the equipment skill taken from the Corpse Emperor, crossing over a hundred kilometers in one go, in an instant he appeared at the center of a fleet.
Leaving only a single Void Walk as an escape trump card, Lin An then unfolded the Death God Aura, madly passing by warship after warship like cutting grass.
At such close range, these surrounding warships acted like natural barriers, helping him block off external attacks.
Charge toward the flagship.
Unless the side completely disregards the warship fleet in this area and launches a large-scale strike in one go or dispatches a powerful individual to intercept him, Lin An is confident that the other side can only watch helplessly as he slaughters wildly!
"Alarm! Alarm!"
Blinding red light lit up inside tens of thousands of warships, and upon receiving continuous alarms, the Tianmu people at this moment were obviously somewhat panicked.
"The members on the d0214 warship have lost contact!"
"The d0337 likewise lost contact!"
"The c0997 lost contact!"
Watching the huge sword shadows continually popping up on the screen, the entire Tianmu fleet in the region was somewhat stunned.
With Lin An activating the Death God Aura, he doesn't need to blast the warships; he only needs to briefly linger near them, and those warships that should protect them become coffins. Under the Death God Aura that can literally drain the life of a third-rank Mutant, the fragile Tianmu people have no power to resist.
It's as if a madman had mixed into a beehive.
As Lin An's attacks grew more violent, one after another narrow, huge sword qi, like a surgical cut, slaughtered the entire fleet.
"Akesi! What do we do!"
"That monster has already killed its way to the vicinity of the flagship!"
"The fortress committee has detected the abnormality here; they're asking us what exactly happened!"
Panicked and at a loss.
Pretty much in line with Lin An's judgment. Earlier, the Tianmu people's rank was too low, insufficient to make the fleet abandon its attack. But when he charged toward the core flagship, the laser strikes that were originally reckless also oddly paused, as if fearing friendly fire.
Inside the Space Fortress, hundreds of Tianmu people in white robes looked bewildered at the information uploaded to the hive network.
In the latest communication, the fleet in near-Earth orbit actually suffered an Alien Species attack! And it has already seized a flagship!
Transmitting information via the neural network, the leading committee members' faces turned grim.
In the information, the subordinate fleet no longer has the authority to attack the flagship; they are currently applying for permission.
"Committee, what should we do?!"
"There's an A-rank Member on the flagship, and that monster has already seized him! If we attack again, it would violate..."
Hearing everyone's panicked words, the leading committee representative merely looked grave as he examined the information on that Alien Species.
A-rank Members are already important figures; if they order another attack, it will surely cause extremely negative repercussions.
But..
After quickly reading Lin An's information, the leading middle-aged man's eyes sharpened, as if he had made up his mind.
"Third Rank... peak!"
"Kill him!"
"Directly use the Space Seal! Use the orbital cannon!"
As the words fell, in the Meeting Room, all hundred-plus Tianmu people involuntarily wanted to speak out to stop it.
Use the orbital cannon? That wouldn't that be burying the entire fleet together!? As a secondary weapon equipped on the war fortress, a single shot of the orbital cannon is enough to destroy an island. Under a charged attack, it could even pierce the crust!
However, before they could rebut anything, the middle-aged man who issued the order coldly scanned the entire venue.
"You've forgotten how such a powerful individual lifeform destroyed us in the first place, haven't you?!"
"At any cost! Kill him first, then talk!"
Although a third-rank peak creature is not enough to threaten them, at most it could destroy part of the fleet. But perhaps because the disaster recorded in history was too deeply ingrained, the committee representative at this moment still decided to launch an attack.
He couldn't bet on whether the other side still had hidden strength, whether it might be fourth stage.
Although theoretically the system cannot allow a Fourth Stage Alien Species to enter the Apocalypse battlefield, he also dared not take any risk.
As the order was issued, with Lin An completely unaware, inside the space fortress several thousand kilometers away, a giant cannon like a particle accelerator began to shine with destructive light.
