Chapter 649: A Day of Fierce Battle

The fold jump is completed.

The Dark Crow Guard and Shadow Moon Grey Wolf immediately disperse their formation, and while expanding the front, the main fleet also releases terminals.

When the reverse encirclement formation is completed, tens of thousands of metal terminals of varying lengths also finish matrix preparation, and the next second…

Ri~— whoosh!!!!

The five‑dimensional realm fills with dazzling cyan‑blue light.

Countless Space Death Spirit warships are scorched and sliced by high‑energy beams from both inside and outside.

And after the light fades, these warships either turn to ash or are torn apart, and even their death‑spirit‑dependent living‑metal technology cannot restore them.

The situation reverses through the cooperation of the Sparta, Dark Crow Guard, and Shadow Moon Grey Wolf legions.

Numbers no longer hold absolute superiority; instead, positioning becomes crucial.

Immediately, the newly arrived Human warships unleash countless carrier aircraft, transport vessels, and air‑ and sea‑combat mechs, engaging in dogfights and boarding with the death‑spirit side's ships, even attempting to commandeer their warships.

The Human Empire's strategy in the main universe is either "board to solve everything" or "grab, grab, grab", plundering all usable resources…

No, it should be "capture all", but describing the Human Empire as "plundering" might lead the alien to think the Human Empire is unreasonable.

That is completely wrong; the Human Empire is the most reasonable civilization, bar none.

Back to the present.

Although Sparta's side received only about a thousand warships as reinforcements, it absolutely boosted morale, and once the reverse encirclement formation is complete, the death‑spirit side trapped inside will soon be annihilated.

An island lacking naval power will be no cause for concern.

Moreover, the Dark Crow Guard and Shadow Moon Grey Wolf's OriginalBody also pilot DivineBodies, leading their respective Honor Centurion formations into the melee.

And the "straw that broke the back" of the Opatara Dynasty fleet appears to be the witch standing on the left shoulder armor of Shadow Moon Grey Wolf's DivineBody.

Zoom in.

The crimson witch, clad in a custom nano‑suit painted gray‑white with dark‑red accents, displays her proud figure; compared with her "Wind‑car" DivineBody, it is merely tiny and frail, with no comparability.

After all, Helusi's exclusive DivineBody, though not as large as John's DivineBody, still belongs to a massively built tier.

Combined with Roman‑style gray‑white armor, a wolf‑type beast hide draped over his back—origin unknown—and the Helusi Claw on his left hand, Wangda Maksimov appears almost nonexistent.

When Helusi pilots the DivineBody at breakneck speed, he leaves the Honor Centurion escort far behind.

Attempting to block them is an entire Space Death Spirit fleet, led by a pyramid about twenty kilometers long, surrounded by dozens of warships of varying classes.

In scale alone, this death‑spirit fleet is comparable to a legion headquarters.

However, Helusi's DivineBody shows no intent to fight, continuing forward alone toward an island a astronomical unit away.

Instead, Wangda on the left shoulder armor lifts her left hand, emitting a scarlet glow that gradually envelops her entire body and the whole DivineBody.

Then Wangda appears to chant a spell, but because the five‑dimensional realm lacks air, sound cannot travel, so we cannot know what she said.

Nevertheless, it matters not what she said, for Helusi lifts his left arm, extending the left hand fitted with the Helusi Claw, its blade aimed at the death‑spirit fleet trying to block them.

Then…

Bang!! Sizzle!!

Five massive dark‑red bolts of lightning shoot out at light speed, each seeming to contain a kind of "dark" power.

Of course, not the chaotic darkness of another dimension, but like a black hole devouring and tearing everything.

Ignoring the death‑spirit technology's defenses, the bolts strike the flying pyramid dead‑on, splashing to other death‑spirit warships and chaining together.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, the death‑spirit fleet trying to block the DivineBody and the crimson witch all explode and sink.

Bang! Bang!

During its passage, the DivineBody automatically raises a shield of diamond‑shaped blocks, blasting warship debris away.

In fact, since Wangda is called a witch, her attack is neither Spiritual Energy nor physical—it is "magic".

In the early Human–Space Death Spirit War, following Commander Leon's orders, Shadow Moon Grey Wolf, cooperating with other legions to enter the Trapped Star Zone and evacuate colonial residents, was the fastest legion, bar none.

Beyond the legion's penchant for raids and swift combat, a crucial point is Wangda's involvement; typically, arriving on a planet that day allows the removal and extermination of all death spirits and their tombs, and the completion of population relocation the same day.

Space Death Spirits can suppress Spiritual Energy, even OriginalBody cannot escape this suppression, but Wangda uses magic.

As she often says, "Suppress Spiritual Energy—what does that have to do with magic?" Shadow Moon Grey Wolf thus achieves optimal results in the shortest time.

But at this moment Wangda is half‑kneeling on the DivineBody's shoulder armor, her chest rising and falling as if taking deep breaths.

It seems that even with the DivineBody amplifying her magic to destroy an entire death‑spirit fleet, it still consumes most of Wangda's energy and stamina.

Nevertheless, the objective is achieved, and no obstacles remain on the forward route.

It didn't take long before Shadow Moon Grey Wolf's DivineBody and the Honor Guard Centurion reached the island first, providing support to Sparta's 1st Battalion.

Next.

With the three legions flawlessly employing guerrilla tactics, infiltration, assassination, rapid thrusts, and frontal assaults, the Opatara Dynasty suffers successive defeats.

When the three legions can free up most ground forces and commence island‑landing operations, it indicates that the plunder of the Brilliant Star Map and the strike on the five‑dimensional space have achieved a substantive victory.

What remains are merely simple cleanup tasks.

As for Xun Barachel, even though he can frequently shift consciousness between bodies, he still cannot avoid needing a core to execute the resurrection protocol.

Moreover, John alone has already utterly defeated that Falach, let alone the arrival of Kelakesi and Helusi, whose combat power is also top‑tier.

In the end, after a full Earth day of fierce battle, the five‑dimensional space that belonged to the Opatara Dynasty is completely seized by the Human Empire.
