Colonia Storm Tour

While pacing back and forth, the agent inadvertently caught a glimpse of the crustal structure beneath the sealed land. Just as he was about to turn his gaze away, a sudden inspiration struck him!

"Got it! Use the Stormships to blast the rocks beneath their feet. They'll collapse if they lose their balance!"

The agent suddenly had a brilliant idea: to dismantle the earth's crust to deal with the sealed land.

"Sir Actor?"

The Void Crystal Core failed to quickly grasp the Agent's wild ideas and intentions.

"Listen to my command! Prepare more Destroyer and Decayer warships to this position. Use beam and particle energy blasts to destroy the area beneath the floating continent and blast away its underground! Newly warped pilot ships should not engage the enemy flagship. Warp to the designated positions and use thermal ray guns to destroy the area beneath them!"

The agents decided to take drastic measures, destabilizing the area beneath the sealed land by hollowing out and destroying it, thus preventing them from powering the pillar-like object through alternative means.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The Void Crystal Core immediately complied with the agent's will. As a result, some of the Void Decay and Destroyer warships were not directly deployed to the battlefield against the Colonia flanking fleet. Instead, they turned to retreat and prepare to use psionic jumps to designated locations to destroy rocks with the heat and massive destruction of beams and particle energy blasts.

If time were not limited, the agents would have even considered deploying a Drakens laser drill powered by Void Crystals to destroy the underground portion of the floating continent.

"By the way, our mothership should not use the thermal ray gun. Tilt the ship 90 degrees downwards and aim it at the floating continent, then fire the purification beam cannon!"

Of course, there are alternatives. The Void Crystal beneath his flagship can release a purification beam to accelerate the destruction of the underground portion of the floating continent. As for how to aim the purification beam at the target, the method is very simple: maintain the balance inside the ship, then tilt the flagship backward 90 degrees, and the purification beam cannon will be aimed.

Such a seemingly impossible ship posture is possible in space, as long as the ship maintains its internal balance and doesn't tilt to one side.

"Leave two flagships behind to contain their flagship, and tilt them back to 90 degrees so that our purification beam cannons can be aimed at their flagship and fired."

The agent's mind quickly led him to realize that this approach could also be used to deal with Colonia's flank air base.

Currently, the main force absorbing and inflicting damage on the battlefield is the Colonia's flank air base, while the Kodiak battleships are taking the least damage. This is because the Colonia's flank air base is such a large target that the Kodiak battleships are insignificant in comparison.

Size does not affect target identification, but the threat posed by 20 Kodiak warships is not as great as that posed by a single Colonia flank air base.

Walker.com's AI quickly detected the unusual movements of the Ring Messenger's fleet through the shipborne scanning array. Some warships and imperial ships did not directly enter the frontal battlefield, but lay motionless in the rear as if waiting for something, as if searching for their weak points and preparing to launch a fatal attack on Colonia's flank air base.

“There are abnormal elements in the enemy’s behavior pattern. I need to analyze what they want to do as soon as possible.”

Walker.com's AI has begun analyzing the movements of a fleet led by a flagship that is currently stationary in the rear, using the intelligence it can gather.

However, there was absolutely no radio communication between them, only a mysterious psionic link. WalkerNet's AI obviously couldn't obtain intelligence about their actions through electronic eavesdropping, and could only rely on a large amount of action data to guess, analyze, and judge.

Fortunately, this process did not last long, and he was personally brought to his own conclusion by the actions of those imperial ships.

After detecting a large number of warp signals in the designated area, Walker.net AI saw that the warships were not following the usual path and were actually warping directly to the bottom of the floating continent.

What are these Ringed Messenger warships trying to do? Are they attacking the Sealed Land's defenses from the rear? Or are they trying to destroy our defenses from afar using the Mother's ship's thermal ray guns?

We still have enough force field shield uses to protect our buildings and troops from heat ray gun attacks, and then destroy their mothership.

Just as Walker.net's AI was questioning their actions, even Exile was puzzled by the actions of the Ring Messenger warship.

What do these creatures, the lackeys of the end of the cycle of reincarnation, intend to do? Exile's thoughts are roughly as follows.

The psychic warship, having teleported to the designated location, tilted its hull 90 degrees backward as instructed by the agent, aiming its purification beam cannon at the crustal structure beneath the sealed land.

"There is a greater than 90% chance that they intend to tilt their ships and use the purification beam cannon to attack the sealed land!"

Walker.com's AI cannot discern their true intentions based on a rough orientation.

As a result, multiple force field shields were generated in and around the sealed land, forming an insurmountable energy defense line to protect the contents inside from direct attacks.

However, the subsequent attack of the purification beam cannon deviated significantly, with the continuous white and pink beams bombarding the crustal structure beneath the sealed land.

The rock, directly exposed to the purifying beam, vaporized and dispersed into the surrounding void. Under the influence of the purifying beam, a gradually expanding hole was slowly carved into the rock layer.

"Ah, they're trying to destroy the rock layers below us to prevent us from charging the Emerald Key!"

Exile immediately understood the warships' intentions.

At this moment, the Destroyer and Decayer warships also followed the pilot ship to launch an attack on the designated location, burning, eroding and destroying the rock layers together with the pilot ship's purification beams, slowly hollowing out the space beneath them.

"Wow, that guy actually turned P into something like Z. He didn't burn the glass, and now he's starting to learn from Doraemon and just flip the floor."

Lin Haiyuan understood the intentions of the Ring Messenger's warship through Exile's words.

At this moment, the two additional pilot ships teleported to the designated combat positions as instructed by the Agent, tilted their hulls at a 90-degree angle, and used the Purification Beam Cannon to bombard the rock layers below the sealed land.

With three purifying beams bombarding the rock layer, the rate at which the rock layer vaporized and disappeared suddenly accelerated.

"The Ring Messengers are trying to destroy the rock layers beneath the sealed land, causing the floating continent to go out of control and preventing us from liberating Lady Exile. We must find a way to stop them."

Walker.com's AI has already devised a way to stop the Ring Messenger from continuing to dismantle the "foundation".

That is to have the 20 Kodiak warships assisting in the battle above the Colonia's flank air base warp to the area above the Sealed Land and use their naval guns to bombard the motherships and warships to stop them.

However, relocating the Kodiak warships will inevitably increase the pressure on the Colonia's flank air base. Without the firepower of 20 Kodiak warships, it will be extremely difficult to deal with so many besieging Destroyer and Decayer warships and Skybreaker carriers. The Triumph anti-aircraft missiles loaded with nuclear warheads are already somewhat inadequate.

As more and more Ring Messenger warships arrive, the pressure on Colonia's flank air base is increasing. Even if no Royal Navy ships come to attack, time stop will be used to buy time to deal with the countless Ring Messenger warships.

However, in order to ensure the mission is completed and the Master and Exile survive, WalkerNet AI did not hesitate to transfer 20 Kodiak warships.

No double updates today... I feel completely out of control...

Why does the Kodiak warship only have naval guns and close-in weapon systems? Because in the Turtle Arena, the Kodiak warship only has these two weapons. I can't change what looks like a vertical launch unit to a missile, because that's just what it looks like; whether it actually is is another matter. In addition, considering the equipment I set up inside the Kodiak warship, it was determined that it would not have missiles.

Even without missiles, the Kodiak warship remains highly flexible in its operations.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: A Rapid Sprint (VIII)

The 20 Kodiak warships turned around in unison, then activated their warp drives to perform a tactical warp-out, disengaging from the battlefield in that area and then warping to the rear of the sealed land.

Only by positioning them behind the sealed land can the warships of the Ring Messengers be ensured that, even with skillful micromanagement, they cannot escape the bombardment of the Kodiak warships.

Walker.com's AI assigned the Kodiak warships that had warped past to their primary targets: those pilot ships that were currently overturning their hulls and using their purification beam cannons to bombard the rock formations.

The energy output of other Destroyer and Decayer warships cannot compare to that of the Royal Ship. Most of the rock vapor that can be seen so far is generated by the Royal Ship's Purification Beam Cannon.

The Kodiak warships were not programmed to randomly attack any part of the hull, but instead focused their attacks on the large illusory spirit crystals that were emitting extreme energy.

The energy of the purification beams all originated from that large illusory spirit crystal.

A fleet that rarely employs one-on-one combat tactics but instead uses concentrated fire tactics, naturally all 20 Kodiak warships simultaneously targeted the large illusory spirit crystal on the same flagship and began their attack.

With the flash of the naval guns, hundreds of 800mm shells were fired from the gun barrels, flying towards the attacking flagship like a meteor shower.

When hundreds of shells bombarded the shields of the Royal Cruiser, creating a massive explosion, the Royal Cruiser's plasma shields flickered violently several times before completely collapsing.

After confirmation by the shipborne scanning array, no energy surrounding the Royal Cruiser could be detected. This means that another salvo could potentially destroy the Royal Cruiser's purification beam cannon or even overload its energy core, causing a massive explosion.

"We absolutely cannot let them succeed. Send Destroyer and Decayer warships to block the trajectory of their cannonballs, and use our other warships to buy time for the Imperial Ship."

The agent already knew that if the command ship were to explode, his chances of victory would become even slimmer, and it would also take time for the purification beam cannon to completely hollow out the rock layers beneath the sealed land.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

The Void Crystal Core immediately controlled multiple Destroyer and Decayer warships to move and form a shell interception net, attempting to use their own hulls and plasma shields to block the shells and buy time for the Imperial Ship.

Walker.com's AI detected the unusual collective movement of enemy ships through the scanning array of the Kodiak warships behind it. An interception network composed of Destroyer and Decayer warships was covering the shooting world of the Kodiak warships.

"They want to buy time for the Mothership to destroy the surface and the area beneath the sealed land. We absolutely cannot let the enemy's plot succeed."

Walker.com's AI countermeasure was to launch Triumph anti-aircraft missiles, using the Kodiak warships to guide the missiles and clear out the Ring Messenger warships blocking its path.

This time, the Triumph anti-aircraft missiles in the vertical launch unit took off and did not turn forward to attack the enemy ships ahead. Instead, they turned and flew backward to be relayed and guided by the Kodiak warship to attack the interception network composed of Destroyer and Decayer warships.

The move to launch all Triumph anti-aircraft missiles to temporarily clear a path for the Kodiak warship directly resulted in a significant decrease in the firepower of the Colonia's flank air base against the enemy attacking it. The highest output came from the Triumph anti-aircraft missiles carrying nuclear warheads, while the large number of Dawn plasma cannons and Golden Arrow rocket clusters accounted for only a small portion.

With the absence of a wave of Triumph anti-aircraft missiles, the percentage of damage to the bow armor gradually exceeded the original value.

Walker.net AI immediately used the Particle Light Spear Support System, and three red particle beams swept across the bow of the ship, instantly clearing out many Voidwarf and Destroyer warships, as well as the Sky Overlord carrier and its Sky Overlord interceptors. The pressure was temporarily relieved, but warships continued to pour in to attack Colonia's flank air base.

In fact, if it weren't for the Raven Drones releasing Shrike Point Defense Drones to intercept the energy blasts from the Decayer warships, the situation at the Colonia flank air base would have been even worse.

The Triumph anti-aircraft missiles, guided by relays, accurately hit the Destroyer and Decayer warships that formed a large-scale defensive network.

In the violently expanding nuclear fireball, the leaky defense network formed by the Destroyer and Decayer warships was instantly torn open, and the Kodiak warship continued to fire at the pilot ship the instant the missile hit its target.

Flames of artillery fire shone like stars, and shells rained down like rain. Hundreds of shells, trailing green light, flew toward the imperial ship, passing over the nuclear fireball that had vanished, leaving only deadly radiation.

Because the defense line had been blasted open by a round of nuclear bombs, hundreds of shells struck the large illusory spirit crystal of the Royal Ship without any obstruction—a few minutes was not enough for the Royal Ship's shield charger to restore the shield to normal level.

The remarkable victory was achieved amidst the violent explosion and scattered crystal fragments caused by the bombardment of the Void Crystal. Subsequently, everything related to the Imperial Ship, which was destroyed by its own energy in a chain energy explosion, turned into Void Mist and dissipated into the air.

After one of the Royal Ships was destroyed, the melting rate of the rock layer beneath the sealed land slowed down considerably. However, before they could even celebrate, another Royal Ship jumped over to prepare for deployment.

Faced with such a massive naval offensive from the enemy, Walker.com's AI had no choice but to activate time stop once again to buy itself some time.

As the ever-popular sound of the energy gate being opened and energy surging in violently filled the air, the space in front of Colonia's flank air base and the ground battlefield below both entered a state of time freeze.

Only the Royal Ships and some Destroyer and Decayer Ships located at a considerable distance in the rear were not affected by the time stop and continued to attack because they were far from the time-stopped area.

Instead of using the opportunity to clear out the large number of enemy ships in front of it with the Triumph anti-aircraft missiles, Walker.net AI launched its own Triumph anti-aircraft missiles and then used relay guidance to attack the Destroyer and Decayer warships that were trying to form an interception network to block the Kodiak warships' shells.

Every time he heard the sound of time stopping, the agent's heart sank. Time stopping would cause a large number of his warships and troops to be shot down and destroyed. What relieved him was that the time stopping of these unknown human forces was not as powerful as he had imagined. It only froze all the warships in the rear, and the range of effect was not so wide.

"Next, we'll warp more warships to the rear of that enemy territory and, together with the pilot ship, destroy the rock layers below to hollow out that area."

The agents increased the proportion of warships that could be psionicly warped to that location, intending to achieve their goals more quickly.

"They are trying to accelerate the destruction of the rock formation by warp-ing more warships; we must stop them decisively!"

WalkerNet AI's solution is to launch more Triumph anti-aircraft missiles to nuclearly bombard the Circular Messenger fleet that was not affected by the time stop!

As a result, more nuclear fireballs continued to attack the Ring Messenger's warship behind the sealed land. The seemingly devastating nuclear bombardment instantly blasted the Ring Messenger's flagship to smithereens.

The principle of striking a snake at its vital point has always been remembered, and the imperial warship, which is mainly powered by the melting of rock strata, is naturally the primary target of nuclear bombing.

Under the barrage of Triumph anti-aircraft missiles, the several pilot ships that had jumped over finally collapsed in the nuclear fireball, buying more time for the Emerald Key to recharge.

Two minutes later, with a somber sound as the energy gate closed, the time-stop effect ended.

The Ring Messenger warships attacking the air base on the flank of Colonia launched another attack. Prior to this, the plasma barrage from the "Dawn" plasma cannons had already shot down many Ring Messenger warships.

At this moment, the Emerald Key, which was constantly being infused with mysterious energy, began to radiate an unusual ring-shaped green glow, and specks of mysterious energy began to appear around it.

"The Emerald Key's energy peak is nearing its end; victory is just around the corner! Hold on a little longer, and I'll be able to come out and help you."

Exile inspired everyone—this time her speech was no longer directed at Lin Haiyuan alone, but at all self-aware individuals.

"Is that...is that Exile's voice?"

Anshan subconsciously turned his head to look for Exile's location, only to realize that the voice was not coming from elsewhere, but directly from his mind.

Telepathy? She suddenly realized this fact.

"Was that voice from Miss Exile?"
