I rely on myself

Chapter 610 Frontal Impact
Under the bombardment of artillery fire, an armored assault ship was flying at an astonishing speed, and even swayed from side to side to avoid the bombardment of shells. But even so, facing such intensive artillery fire, shells still fell on its armor from time to time, performing a unique symphony of metal and explosions.

Feeling the violent vibration coming from the boat, although knowing it was inevitable, Lin Yuan still couldn't help but complain to Eugene: "Can't you dodge a few more attacks? I've been hit a lot. Can I really make it to the designated position at this rate?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Do you know how many ships the enemy has? And I have to say that Gjallarhorn is really rich. Such intensive bombardment has not stopped since just now."

Eugene refuted Lin Yuan's complaint without giving in, and at the same time expressed his envy and jealousy towards Galarhorn's wealth and power.

At this moment, Chad below suddenly turned around and said to him, "We can't go on like this! Even nano-layer armor can't withstand such intensive bombardment."

"I know what you said, but I also..."

"boom!!!"

Before Eugene could finish his words, a deafening explosion suddenly sounded, startling Eugene, Chad and Dante. However, they quickly realized that the explosion came from the armored assault ship that was charging.

Eugene suddenly realized something, his face turned pale, and he quickly shouted into the communication: "Hey, Lin Yuan! Are you okay?!"

Fortunately, the situation was not the worst. Lin Yuan’s voice soon came back through the communication: “Ahem… Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

"Phew, that's good." Eugene breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Lin Yuan's reply, and it sounded like there was nothing serious. However, he soon remembered the deafening explosion just now, and hurriedly asked Chad and Dante.

"What happened just now?"

"It was an anti-ship missile. Gjallarhorn used an anti-ship missile and was hit by one just now, so it caused such a big commotion."

"what!"

The first person to answer Eugene's question was Lin Yuan. As Lin Yuan, who had experienced it personally, spoke about the situation, Eugene and the other three understood what had happened. At the same time, their faces suddenly became uglier again.

"You must be kidding! They even took out anti-ship missiles. This is truly Gjallarhorn."

"Eugene, now is not the time to talk about this. The situation is that Bruvas's ship can't hold out for long, not to mention that the other party has used anti-ship missiles. Come up with a solution quickly."

"...Give me full control of the ship. You two will be in charge of the artillery fire control and try to intercept those anti-ship missiles. As for the rest, leave it to me."

"What are you going to do?"

"Nonsense, of course I'm going to find a way to break through!"

"...Really, don't blame me if you have any problems!"

With Chad's operation, all control of the assault ship, except for the artillery fire, was transferred to Eugene.

After just a moment of discomfort, Eugene quickly adapted and realized how bad the situation of the assault ship was at the moment.

The armor was tattered and broken by the intensive artillery fire, and some of it was even penetrated, and the internal areas were also damaged. Even if it was not attacked again, the assault ship would have to undergo a major repair before it could be put back into use. Compared to repairs, it might not be so troublesome to replace a new ship. "...Although I expected it, I didn't expect it to be damaged to this extent. Fortunately, it can still continue to sail, so that's fine."

After a quick inspection, although the assault ship was indeed severely damaged, it was still able to continue sailing, and this was enough for Eugene.

"Lin Yuan! Sit tight. My actions might be a little rough. Just bear with it!"

"Eugene, you are not going to... Damn it! Wait a minute!!"

As Lin Yuan spoke, he quickly adjusted the seat belt on the driver's seat to the highest level of restraint, and Eugene immediately responded.

"There's still time to wait. If you don't move, the ship will be sunk, so you better sit tight!!"

While speaking, Eugene turned on all the thrusters of the assault ship without hesitation and pushed them to maximum thrust.

In an instant, the speed of the assault ship, which was already incredibly fast, suddenly increased by another knot. The resulting G-force pressed Lin Yuan inside it tightly into the driver's seat.

"Eugene, you bastard, wait until I get back, and see how I'll take revenge on you!!"

Although he was shouting like this, Lin Yuan also knew what the situation was. He did not open the communication and yell at Eugene to avoid affecting his steering.

Under Eugene's control, the assault ship showed extraordinary flexibility, like a swimming fish, dodging left and right in the artillery fire and avoiding most of the shelling. In addition, with the artillery interception controlled by Chad and Dante, it did not hit a single anti-ship missile and avoided all of them. Those that could not be avoided were intercepted in advance by the ship's guns, and in this way the distance was shortened a lot along the way.

Watching this scene, Karta couldn't help but feel anxious. After all, just like she said before, facing a mere assault ship, mobilizing the entire fleet of the Earth's Outer Orbital Joint Forces, such a counterattack formation can be said to be an exaggeration. But in other words, if this level of combat power is used, it will be broken through by the enemy.

Well, let alone dispelling the rumor, as soon as the headquarters receives the news, the proposal to dismantle the outer orbital joint force and how to allocate its members will probably be put on the table instantly.

Of course, Carta could not accept such a result, so she hurriedly shouted: "Let the ships on both sides move forward, set up a crane wing formation, concentrate the artillery fire on the assault ship, and shoot it down as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

As the order was given, the ships on both sides of the Earth's Outer Orbital Joint Force immediately began to move forward, forming a pocket shape, surrounding the assault ship in the middle. At the same time, all the ships completely poured out their main force.

The fierce artillery fire was concentrated in an instant, and the density of the bombardment suddenly increased. Even with Eugene's steering skills, he could not avoid being hit.

"Clang, boom, clang, clang, boom..."

Along with the sound of artillery shells hitting the armor, continuous vibrations also hit.

Feeling the continuous vibrations, even though Lin Yuan couldn't see the situation outside, he could guess that the boat wouldn't last long if it continued like this.

“This is not good…”
