Chapter 481 - 481 333 Siloke Star Sea Campaign 3 (Five-in-One)_6

481: Chapter 333: Siloke Star Sea Campaign 3 (Five-in-One)_6 481: Chapter 333: Siloke Star Sea Campaign 3 (Five-in-One)_6 “Sir, the enemy’s boarding ship is coming, they’re about to board!”

At that moment, a subordinate exclaimed in panic.

“Immediately muster the personnel to block them!”

“What if we can’t hold them off?

They want to take over the Hamms Planet Fortress.”

“In your dreams!

They’ll never take the Hamms Planet Fortress from me.

I, Tedra, am prepared to die loyal to the Emperor.

If the Hamms Planet Fortress falls, we’ll blow it up!

Are you afraid?”

Tedra roared, nearing madness.

“We’re not afraid, for the Emperor!”

The Imperial Army officers present, upon hearing Tedra’s words, all bellowed out with strained voices.

Although many of them did not wish to die, they had no choice.

If they died in the explosion of the Hamms Planet Fortress, though it would mean they had been defeated in combat, at least they wouldn’t be blamed by the Emperor, and their families might even receive some compensation.

But if the Hamms Planet Fortress fell into the hands of the Federation, they would be held accountable and, in the Emperor’s raging anger, it would be a bloodbath!

“Good, very good!”

Tedra said through gritted teeth.

…

Elsewhere, in the DX-06 Star Zone.

All of Weikank’s remaining forces had been annihilated.

It has to be said, elite legions simply couldn’t be compared to ragtag troops.

Not one of the 1000 mechas under Weikank’s command had fled; aside from the very few mechas that were disabled and the personnel captured, the rest had died in battle.

The force from the Grey Gun battalion that Su Ming and his team had fought earlier had begun to disintegrate after suffering over 30 percent casualties—they weren’t in the same league.

“Count the casualties.”

Su Ming said gravely to Rhein.

“We now have 1542 mechas remaining, of which 132 men are injured.”

Rhein reported a very heavy number.

After listening, Su Ming fell silent for a few seconds before responding.

“I understand.”

This battle had indeed been costly with so many dead.

They owed it to the timely arrival of the fourth and fifth regiments that the casualties weren’t higher.

But Su Ming also understood that Rhein and the others had truly done their best, as the combat capabilities of the subordinate soldiers were genuinely limited.

Of course, Su Ming also believed in one thing: if these recruits could survive this war, with additional rigorous training, they could absolutely become elite.

At this moment, Major Curry and Major Ye Hai piloted their mechas, flying to Su Ming’s side.

They spoke to Su Ming.

“Is everything taken care of?”

“Yes, thank you for your support.”

“Don’t mention it, we’re all from the same legion.

And damn, you’re really tenacious; you took on an Imperial Army ace squad head-on and even took down a Fourth Generation Mecha.

That’s seriously impressive!”

Major Curry said, astoundingly.

“Just lucky.”

Su Ming responded unflappably.

“Modest as always.”

Major Curry said with a sigh.

“Let’s not talk about this now.

The battle here might be over, but things aren’t looking good on Kaff’s front.

I’ve heard they’ve suffered heavy losses.”

Major Ye Hai interjected urgently.

“What happened?”

Su Ming asked with a slight frown.

“It’s that damn level 5 Battleship, ridiculously strong.”

Major Ye Hai immediately pointed out the reason.

“Then let’s quickly gather our troops to go support.”

Major Curry didn’t waste words and promptly declared their intentions.

“Hold on.”

Su Ming spoke up to the two majors.

“What is it?”

Both Major Curry and Major Ye Hai looked at Su Ming, puzzled.

“Gather everyone and push that defensive point forward.”

Su Ming then flew towards the defensive point.

Curry and Ye Hai exchanged a glance and immediately led their troops forward.

Soon, Su Ming and the others, piloting their mechas, pushed the defensive point toward the main battlefield.

“Major Su Ming, you really know your stuff, actually managing to repair the defense position’s main cannon.

Why didn’t we think of this at the start?”

Major Curia pushed forward at the defense position and said to Su Ming.

“Our weapons are limited, so naturally we should make use of the enemy’s weaponry.”

Su Ming simply explained.

“You truly are a gifted graduate from the Imperial Court Academy, so sharp-witted.

But still, can this main cannon break through a level 5 battleship’s Energy Barrier?”

Towards the end, Major Ye Hai asked with some concern.

“If the level 5 battleship is at full capacity, it definitely won’t break through.

But I believe that Colonel Kaff’s prolonged siege on the level 5 battleship must have weakened its Energy Barrier by now.”

“It makes sense.

In that case, as long as our surprise attack succeeds, we might just become the last straw that breaks the camel’s back!”

“Exactly, as long as we can destroy the level 5 battleship’s Energy Barrier, victory will surely be ours.

The Grey Gun Legion’s forces may be numerous but they’re not strong.

They won’t be able to stop us from pummeling the ship.”

Su Ming analyzed logically.

“Good!”

Curia responded with a deep voice, in agreement.

…

At this moment, in the nearby star space.

Colonel Kaff piloted the Fourth Generation Mecha·Shadow Slayer, speeding towards the level 5 Battleship·Grey Gun, slashing through the intercepting mechs one after another.

He forcefully approached the level 5 Battleship·Grey Gun and triggered the opening of his underbelly launch port.

Swoosh!

Two supersonic missiles loaded with Tactical Nuclear Bombs shot out.

Kaff then controlled the mecha to turn around and speed away!

Boom~

Those two nuclear warheads instantly struck the Energy Barrier of the level 5 Battleship·Grey Gun, bursting into two dazzling suns.

Seeing this scene, everyone on the battlefield cheered excitedly on the communication channel.

“Beautiful!”

However, as the glow of the explosion faded.

The level 5 Battleship·Grey Gun re-emerged.

The Energy Barrier around the Grey Gun distorted violently but remained intact!

“Damn it!”

Upon seeing this, Kaff cursed angrily, veins bulging on his forehead.

He had besieged this ship for so long, yet had failed to break through its Energy Barrier.

Suddenly, countless interceptor cannons on the surface of the Grey Gun turned their muzzles to pour fire on him.

Kaff steered the mecha to a quick evasion, dodging the concentrated attack.

At that moment, a myriad of Beast Teeth Mecha charged at Kaff, attempting to gang up on him.

The result was Kaff sweeping through them with his Particle Light Sword in hand, cutting through the Beast Teeth like they were made of paper, blasting them into explosions.

…

Inside the central command room of the Grey Gun.

Piercing alarms sounded incessantly, with red warning boxes popping up one after another.

“Warning: Energy Barrier strength has fallen to twenty percent; entering critical level.”

…

Sailuka got up from the ground, sat back in the command chair, and cursed in sheer rage.

“You bunch of idiots, take him down!”

“Legion Commander, that Fourth Generation Mecha is too strong.”

The operator reported back in terror.

“Idiots, a bunch of useless idiots!”

Sailuka cursed furiously.

He was so angry because despite having considerably more soldiers than the enemy, they had not only failed to crush this intercepting force but were actually being pushed back by them.

If not for the firepower of the level 5 battleship, Sailuka would have doubted that his own forces were holding together.

Of course, this wasn’t the most critical issue.

The main problem was the Fourth Generation Mecha·Shadow Slayer and its fearless subordinates desperately attacking the level 5 Battleship·Grey Gun.

The Energy Barrier of the Grey Gun was relentlessly whittled down by eighty percent.

Seeing Sailuka in a rage, all present subordinates dared not make a sound.

“What are you standing around for?

Redirect our troops to swarm him, and if anyone dares to flinch, I’ll slaughter his entire family!”

“Yes!”

The operators responded, terrified.
