Chapter 932: Main Force Approaches the Center

Thick purple lightning smashed open a stretch of sea surface; Wuzang stood sword in hand above the waves, watching the Cleansers in the distance who had blocked the lightning strikes, a faint smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

I didn't expect your experimental contraption still had a couple of tricks up its sleeve...

Hmph, if you haven't transformed into warships now, how could you few possibly be my opponent! the Cleanser snorted.

Hehe, but it's a pity that we are already warships now. Ji Yin said with a smile.

You... the Cleanser looked somewhat flustered.

Boom!

A thick white laser shot from the massive ship equipment behind the Cleanser, and accompanying the laser were shells hidden within that emitted a black aura.

Wuzang and the others immediately jumped to dodge; after all, taunting is taunting, but there's no denying that the Cleanser's combat power remains formidable.

However, the black-aura shells hidden behind still dealt a dark blow to everyone; the slow-to-react Wushi Ling was hit by that shell.

"Wushi Ling, are you alright?" Gao Xiong, who had landed on the sea surface, immediately asked the Wushi Ling not far away who had been struck by the black aura.

At this moment, Wushi Ling's eyes were tightly shut, the whole person seeming dazed, as if losing their sense of direction.

"Uuu... I'm fine..." Wushi Ling hurriedly said, "I can't see anything, my sense of direction is gone, and my radar range has shrunk to minimum."

"What?" Gao Xiong startled, then immediately said over the comms, "Everyone be careful of those black-aura shells; they can make us lose our sense of direction and block our sensing, and we don't yet know how long this state will last."

"I see... Everyone, stay alert; the enemy hasn't lost its ability to resist yet." Wuzang nodded, "Gao Xiong, how is Wushi Ling?"

"She's lost her sense of direction; I'll stay by her side and protect her." Gao Xiong said while moving to Wushi Ling's side, taking her hand to dodge the incoming shells.

"Alright, I'll leave it to you." Wuzang nodded, relaxed, and opened fire on the Cleanser with full force.

Feeling the spray from exploding shells nearby landing on her, Wushi Ling maneuvered along Gao Xiong's path; though she couldn't see, she could still keenly sense his movements.

"Thank you, Gao Xiong." Wushi Ling said apologetically.

"Don't say more now; how do you feel?" Gao Xiong asked without turning his head.

"Better; I feel this shielding should be temporary, but getting hit is still a hassle..." Wushi Ling hurriedly said.

"Alright, that's good." Gao Xiong dodged the incoming shells, paused, then opened fierce fire on the nearby appearing Siren mass-produced type, "Can you still shoot?"

"Yes, I can still attack!" Wushi Ling replied hurriedly.

"Good, listen to my orders; we'll patrol the edges together to provide fire support." Gao Xiong said.

"Yes!"

As the firepower within the base continuously poured upon the Sirens, the Main Force Fleet formed by Tiancheng and others had already entered the 76th maritime zone.

"Akagi, how's the situation with Lord Wuzang and Lord Zhang Men?" Tiancheng asked the Akagi who had just recovered her carrier aircraft.

"The situation isn't too tense; they're currently exchanging fire with the Cleansers, but we can't drag it out too long, after all they only have a few people; once the Testers appear and join forces with the Cleansers, things will likely become very pressured." Akagi replied.

Tiancheng nodded, "Immediately issue orders to encircle that sea area; your aviation brigade continue to support with carrier aircraft, ensuring the vanguard fleet doesn't fail this operation due to insufficient firepower."

"Understood, Elder Sister Tiancheng." Akagi nodded.

Watching Akagi spring into action, Tiancheng couldn't help but sigh in relief. This operation was originally an adventure; they could have completely swept the base with an overwhelming frontal war strategy.

However, this approach consumes more time; for them, the most urgent thing is time, and furthermore, the two intended to let the Sakura Empire have a certain say in the harbor district, so they agreed to carry out this strike operation.

But while the strike operation progresses quickly, it also bears corresponding risks; if Wuzang-led vanguard force encounters fire suppression and gets surrounded before the main force arrives, possibly suffering some losses, then this operation would be declared a failure.

Fortunately, up to now, the vanguard fleet led by Wuzang has still been battling the enemy, and with the aviation brigade's support, they have not lost ground against the Cleansers, letting Tiancheng's worried heart ease.

Now their main force fleet has established a base very close by; the ensuing battle will be to encircle and annihilate. As long as this Siren base is removed, the next step of conquering the Bering Strait will become very simple.

Just then, a burst of urgent communication signals transmitted into Tiancheng's communicator.

"A signal from the White Eagle Fleet?" Tiancheng froze upon receiving the signal, then said doubtfully, "Could it be that the Sovereign already knows our strategy… Impossible; perhaps it's a distress signal from the White Eagle Fleet."

In her thoughts, Tiancheng still decided to answer the call to see what had happened. The instant she connected, a flickering human figure appeared before her—this figure was the Bunker Hill of the White Eagle Fleet.

"Bunker Hill?" Tiancheng narrowed her eyes.

"We've finally linked up with your signal; we're now in the 80th maritime zone, still some distance from your 76th zone, but I believe we'll surely reach you later." Bunker Hill said.

"Huh? You're coming to the 76th maritime zone? I thought you were responsible for the waters near Alaska..." said.

"Yes, but we've received orders from Headquarters to come assist you in clearing the base in this maritime zone. Of course, if you clear the base, we'll help you with the campaign to conquer the Bering Strait." Bunker Hill said.

"Wait? The signal from Headquarters? Could it be from the Sovereign?" Tiancheng said helplessly.

"Yes, the harbor district has already guessed that your Sakura Empire is making a big move, though the specifics aren't clear. But to prevent any consequences from your Sakura Empire lacking combat power, the harbor district has ordered our Southeast Pacific fleet to draw near your maritime zone."

"My fleet is the first squadron; next, the fleet led by Xin ze xi will approach this side, ready to provide support at any time." Bunker Hill said.

"So can you now tell me the situation over there?"

Tiancheng sighed, "I knew I couldn't keep it from the Sovereign for long, but this is good; after this battle, we indeed need to launch a full-scale campaign to conquer the Bering Strait, and with your help assisting, this campaign can be much faster."

Our current situation here is as follows: Lord Wuzang's...
