The Storm Frigate's Light Spear Attacks came one after another.
These escort ships' main cannons focused on being "big," and were just as effective against shield force fields.
Beams constantly consumed the shield surplus of several Green Skin main cruisers.
Several Green Skin main cruisers sensed something was wrong and began turning to flee.
But Luna Fleet's escort ships reacted quickly and arrived to support!
They recklessly charged forward, entangling the Green Skin warships trying to escape.
Defense turrets fired wildly, torpedo tubes launched without stopping, and they even charged straight in to board.
They were buying time with their lives.
And Peak Black Radiance had already completed its second charge.
"Lock onto the largest one." Lin En ordered.
The Light Spear Array lit up again.
This time, it targeted the giant warship pushing the Precept Ruler, Feng Niu Hao.
The beam fired.
A thick radiance carrying fiery destruction streaked across the starry sky, precisely striking Feng Niu Hao's flank.
Thick steel melted instantly.
Armor was torn open like paper, the beam penetrated layer after layer of cabins, and exploded deep within the hull.
Feng Niu Hao trembled violently.
The green force field on it had long dissipated, now relying entirely on thick armor to take the hits.
But those Light Spears were born to target the hull itself, and were too fierce, too dense, one after another, giving it no chance to catch its breath.
Feng Niu Hao's flank was blasted open with a huge gap.
Flames surged out from the gap, countless fragments flying and splashing.
That invincible giant beast finally let out a pained cry.
Chandler was slaughtering madly inside the Precept Ruler when he suddenly felt the warship beneath his feet tremble violently.
"What's happening?!" it roared.
Broken screams came through the communication device:
"Big Boss! Outside! A new Shrimp Fleet has come outside! Our fleet can't hold on!"
Chandler was stunned.
A new fleet?
It rushed to a porthole and looked out.
In the starry sky, a huge Empire Cruiser was facing them broadside.
Its flank Light Spear Array was still glowing, its target precisely its own ship.
Chandler immediately had the escort ship's Deputy tell him Feng Niu Hao's current situation.
Feng Niu Hao's flank had been blasted open with a big hole, armor severely damaged, at least three layers of cabins completely exposed to vacuum.
Those Shrimp cruisers' firepower was indeed strong, fiercer than they expected.
After hearing the Deputy's report, it thought for a while, then grinned.
"Keep looking." Chandler roared, swinging its power claw and smashing a blocking half-hatch into fragments.
"That thing must be on this ship!"
Because it figured, as long as the ship's engine wasn't broken, the ship could still fly!
The Grots looked at each other, some hesitating.
That new Shrimp Fleet outside was so fierce, but Big Boss actually didn't want to retreat?
But no one dared question; whatever Big Boss said went.
Chandler turned around and continued charging through the Precept Ruler's corridors.
With every step of its six-meter-tall Mechanical War Armor, the floor trembled.
The power claw tore open one sealed hatch after another, and the Triple-barrel Big Bang Bang swept at any Inquisition Army daring to block the way.
It didn't know exactly what that thing looked like.
But it knew that thing must be on this ship.
The "Invincible Mecha's Secret" the Grots were madly discussing must be true.
Find it, and they could build the most waaagh mecha.
Then it could try replacing Lianggenna's position—not bad.
Then it could make the name Chandler spread throughout the entire Star System.
It continued walking inside.
The battlefield outside was also changing.
Although the Green Skin Fleet was initially caught off guard by Lin En's Expedition Fleet, since Big Boss didn't retreat, they wouldn't retreat.
This was Green Skin logic: Big Boss says charge, then charge to the end.
Big Boss didn't order a retreat; even if they die, they'll die here.
Soon, a Green Skin Cruiser painted with yellow-black stripes found an opportunity.
It brought a group of Transport Ships and Ramming Boats, taking advantage of the gap when the Expedition Fleet's firepower shifted, and successfully charged deep into the Lin En Fleet's formation.
Those Transport Ships passed through the Firepower Net and headed straight for several Escort Ships.
Strangely, they weren't blocked by that damn shield.
Those Escort Ships' Void Shields were clearly operating just now, but the Transport Ships encountered no obstruction at all, directly slamming into the hulls.
The Green Skins wouldn't consider whether this was a trap.
"Boarding! Boarding!" the Grot in the Transport Ships howled madly.
"Kill all those Shrimp, hahahaha!!!"
The first batch of Transport Ships successfully landed.
Tens of thousands of Green Skins surged onto the Expedition Fleet's ships.
What they didn't notice was that those Escort Ships' Void Shields, after they passed through, lit up again, intact as before.
Like a giant beast, opening its mouth, waiting for the prey to jump in themselves.
The first Escort Ship to be boarded was named "Warrior's Resolve."
It was a Storm-class Frigate, less than two kilometers in length, with fewer than thirty thousand crew.
In the Green Skins' view, this kind of Shrimp's small ship was easiest to capture; as long as they charged in and killed all those Shrimp, they could grab good stuff.
This batch of boarding Green Skins numbered about thirty thousand, led by a Big Guy over three and a half meters tall.
It wielded a Power Axe and was the first to rush out of the Transport Ship.
It even made it all the way to the deck where the crew usually carried out activities.
But strangely, along the way they encountered no firepower resistance and saw no living creatures.
Only dim lights and the ventilation pipes hummed.
The Big Guy furrowed his brow; this wasn't normal.
A Shrimp's ship, how could there be no one?
But its brain capacity didn't support it conducting deeper thought.
"Search for me!" it roared.
The Green Skin Boys began rushing inside, passing through one hatch after another, walking down one corridor after another, searching every corner.
But there was nothing.
The whole ship was like an empty city.
The last bit of vigilance was worn away, and they began to split up and act.
Trying to find those Shrimp hiding through this method.
Until the team led by the Big Guy reached the depths of the hull.
The lights there instantly all went out.
Pitch black.
The Big Guy raised his Power Axe, signaling his subordinates to be careful.
They slowly walked forward, their eyes desperately searching in the darkness.
Suddenly!
In the darkness, a patch of scarlet points of light lit up, surrounding them in the center.
Several thousand points of red light, dense, layer upon layer, staring at them.
The Grot could even feel the greed emanating from those red lights, as if looking at a delicacy.
The Big Guy's pupils suddenly contracted.
"Damn it, what is this thing!?"
It hadn't finished speaking.
Something moved in the darkness, moving too fast to see clearly.
A fierce wind blew past, and the Big Guy's Power Axe, along with the arm holding it, flew out.
It shrieked, looked down, and the cut was smooth.
More black shadows surged out from the darkness.
The Green Skin Boys finally saw their opponent clearly.
Not humans and those robots, but insects.
Countless insects!
