1172: Chapter 646_2 1172: Chapter 646_2 The shipās problems, the navigation problems, the morale problemsā¦
all of these weigh heavily on Su Lieās mind.
He knows that no matter how determined they are subjectively, objectively they canāt hold on any longer, and are headed towards inevitable destruction.
Heās even prepared for the worst, planning to kill every collapsing person on board and every demon invading the ship at the last moment.
He will stay with his most resolute warriors on his ship eternally until they too perish from lack of supplies, reinforcements, under relentless enemy attacks, meaning his duty to the Emperor will be fulfilled.
But at this time, Gu Hang appeared.
He can now likely believe that itās not a deception, not an illusion.
Could it beā¦
a turning point?
Even though heās prepared for the worst, being able to lead the battle group out is certainly better.
Though his face still shows caution, internally his heart is stirred.
ā¦
Opposite him, Gu Hang, seeing that the Lord of the Phoenix finally didnāt charge at him again without reason, also breathed a sigh of relief.
He seized the moment to explain the situation.
Gu Hang didnāt mention how he found the Phoenix Crown Feathers.
He couldnāt speak about the system, but if he didnāt, he would have to lie.
Gu Hang felt that in such a situation, lying would definitely be a very bad choice.
Heād rather frankly say, this matter canāt be spoken.
The key point afterward was mainly how Gu Hang planned to help Su Lie.
In short, Gu Hang could give the Phoenix Crown Feathers a subspace navigation coordinateāactually his Storm God Kingdom.
Once near the Storm God Kingdom, Gu Hang could tear open subspace and take them out.
It sounds simple, and actuallyā¦
it is quite simple.
The premise is that Su Lie must believe.
Sure enough, after Gu Hang finished speaking, Su Lie didnāt say a word, just staring intently at him.
Gu Hang felt quite uncomfortable under that gaze.
He realized that ever since their meeting, their exchange, and the subsequent conversation, it had always been him speaking, while Su Lie had never opened his mouth, leading one to wonder if he was mute.
At this point in their conversation, Gu Hang also had nothing more to say.
He too fell silent, just staring at Su Lie.
After a long while, Su Lie finally spoke: āIāll have my people try.ā
āWhat?ā Gu Hang was momentarily stunned.
But he quickly realized: āThat would be best, as soon as possible.
I hope you can catch up to the final battle.ā
Speaking of this, Gu Hang casually briefed Su Lie on the current state of the Iron Armor War, while also complaining somewhat about his successor and the North Line commander being too reckless.
Su Lie listened intently but gave no comment.
He rarely comments on things he is not deeply familiar with.
ā¦
Upon returning to the real universe, Gu Hangās mood was generally quite good.
Although there was a fight with no victor, he wasnāt there to brawl but to rescue people.
Even if he couldnāt recruit the Phoenix under his command, it was at least an allied force.
Over a hundred interstellar warriors, even if they were elite of a pilot battle group, Gu Hang didnāt care too much.
No matter how skilled they were, could they all be battalion champions?
The pilot group couldnāt manage that.
However, this Glorious Queen battleship is incredibly tempting.
Saying a duel is pointless, but if thereās an entire escort fleet protecting it, a single Glorious Queen could easily defeat ten battleships.
Gu Hang wondered how the Phoenix, possessing a Glorious Queen, could lose the war against Iron Armor.
He wanted to ask, but the mood of the previous meeting wasnāt right, Su Lie hadnāt fully trusted him, and it wasnāt the right moment to inquire.
No worries, there will be opportunities to find out later.
This Glorious Queen, even if not acquired, being able to utilize it temporarily in the war, is a significant advantage.
However, Battle Group Leader Su Lie appears somewhat hesitant.
Before leaving, Gu Hang met with Phoenixās think tanks, leaving a navigation marker.
In subspace, the Storm God Kingdom doesnāt have much presence and doesnāt serve a navigational function like the star beacon projecting the Emperorās Golden Throne on Holy Terra.
But Gu Hang as Lord of Divine Country left a specific navigation route that couldnāt be extensively used but could provide a reliable approach path to a single ship.
Correcting the navigation path, the Phoenix Crown Feathers can travel to the Storm God Kingdom.
In between, Gu Hangās spiritual energy clearly guides the way, as long as their navigator resolutely follows this direction, there is no mistake to be made.
But realistically, there are two problems.
First, will they indeed resolutely follow?
To this point, they have yet to proceed along the navigation left by Gu Hang.
If they utterly refuse to follow the route Gu Hang provided, determined not to believeā¦
then let them be.
It only means the situation isnāt desperate enough, that they can still endure, have options.
When truly cornered, whether they want to or not, they must proceed.
Anyway, Gu Hang is not in a rush.
But the other point concerns Gu Hang even more.
That is, the one who had set sights on Su Lie and the Phoenix.
Initially, Gu Hang thought it was an ordinary subspace demon or an inferior deity.
That level of enemy didnāt worry Gu Hang.
However, when he truly sensed those ethereal eyes looking his way, he changed his perspective.
Thatās by no means an ordinary entity.
The feeling it gave to Gu Hang was akin to that of āFatherā, existing on the same level!
It is one of the most grand, unspeakable of the four evil gods in subspace!
It remains distant, and whether itās the Phoenix Crown Feathers or Su Lie as the battle group leader, though they are greatly desired, ultimately they are possessions of the Emperor, shrouded by His mighty protection.
The Prince of Desire cannot directly seize, fearing provocation; nor does it focus fully on this space, merely tapping on the periphery.
Yet, while it fears the Divine Emperor, it evidently harbors no fear of Gu Hang.
If Gu Hang simply brought the Phoenix Crown Feathers near his Storm God Kingdom, wouldnāt he also lead the Prince of Desireās gaze there?
His Divine Country couldnāt withstand the scrutiny of a true great evil god!
Honestly, heās been through this once.
That was when destroying and devouring Unclean One Gowaga attracted the Fatherās attention.
Gu Hang had to thank the Emperor, likely it was the Emperor who helped shield his Divine Country from the Fatherās gaze.
Otherwise, Gu Hang wouldnāt have peacefully developed, his Storm God Kingdom would have faced endless Plague Demon assaults.
This time, if he thoughtlessly brings the Phoenix close, letting a peer level existence see it, Gu Hangās Storm God Kingdom will likely face the wrathful onslaught of desire demons.
