Without the protection of their shields, the two capital ships, the Vikra and Mattia, were left to rely on their own hulls to withstand enemy attacks.

Compared with other conventional warships, the capital ship with a length of hundreds of kilometers does have its capital, and it can withstand higher damage even if it loses the protection of the shield, but after leaving the protection of the shield, the enemy's attack is completely fist-to-flesh.

"Boom, boom, boom......" Qin Hao's Vicla's ancestor-class mothership shook violently under the enemy's fierce artillery fire, the periphery of the hull had already caught fire and burned, a large number of electronic equipment was destroyed, and the structure of the hull also suffered a lot of losses.

Fortunately, the modular structure allows the Vickla to isolate the outer compartments by sealing the hatch, and then manage the damage in this way.

However, such an action can only make this capital ship breathe for a while, after all, it is impossible for even the capital ship to support it for too long when it is fired by such powerful firepower of the enemy.

As the minutes and seconds passed, all the crew members on the Vikra lifted their hearts, because they didn't know how long this stormy battleship could last, in fact, let alone those ordinary crews, even Helen, who had always been confident, had no bottom in her heart at this time.

The Vikra was in a desperate situation, and the Mattia Kingfisher-class aircraft-carrying battlecruiser next to it was not much better, compared to the Vikla, the slender battleship was actually more vulnerable, and it was actually in a worse state under enemy fire.

"Commander, we probably won't be able to hold out much longer...... Tech Officer reported to Helen.

"Hold on for a while...... Helen sighed, and then gave the order through the ship's announcement: "All personnel can now go to the launch bay to find the lifeboat, we are ready to abandon the ship......"

"......" The entire spaceship was silent, and no one left their posts, although abandoning the ship is a more conventional choice for a naval soldier, after all, equipment is not worth a human life.

But this time it was different, this time the gods were with them, how could these crew members leave their gods behind and flee the ship alone?

"Your Excellency, Commander! The 1104 ship asks to join the war! ”

"120 ships request to join the war!"

"Ship 172 asks to join the war!"

……

And at this time, a large number of signals appeared on the ship's broadcast, and along with these signals, a large group of warships rushed out of the Holy Advent Messenger fleet, and there was a steady stream of warships rushing out behind these warships.

Almost none of these ships had their weapons systems turned on, and they just rushed straight up and got in front of the Virla Ancestor-class mothership, while on the other side, there were also some ships in front of the Mattia Kingfisher-class aircraft-carrying battlecruiser.

Obviously, these Holy Presence Messenger warriors rushed forward spontaneously without an order, and they wanted to use their own warships and their lives to resist the damage for the two capital ships.

At this time, the state of the Holy Presence Messenger fleet is very poor, not only are they short of fuel, but even the antimatter reserves for using heavy equipment are very scarce, so the battle can no longer be fought, and now the only thing that these Holy Presence Messenger soldiers can use is their own damaged hull, and use their lives to buy time for the two capital ships!

"For the gods!"

"Long live the glory of the divine body!"

……

The fanatical followers of the Holy Presence shouted slogans on the fleet radio, and then drove the battleships to the front, these conventional warships were far inferior to the capital ships in terms of firepower, those Doom-class heavy cruisers could hold out for a short time, and frigates like the Believer Ship and the Enlightenment Ship would be miserable, they would be killed by the enemy's artillery fire almost instantly after rushing up.

However, the wreckage of these ships was not completely useless after they were destroyed, and the wreckage of their warships was still in the way, and as more and more warships were destroyed, the wreckage of these warships formed a space junk patch in front of the two capital ships.

This space junk can absorb the damage of energy weapons, and it will also block the enemy's attack, forcing them to choose to go around or slow down, after all, if you crash into a large area of space junk, even the capital ship will be considered suspected of suicide.

Under the desperate protection of the Holy Presence Messenger fleet, the two capital ships ushered in a moment of respite, with the powerful power of their own shield generators, the shields of the two capital ships began to slowly recover, and at the same time, the long-range shield generators of the Vitakra-class mothership were also running at full strength, with its help, the shields of the two capital ships gradually recovered.

"Humph! It's all this time, do they still have to protect the capital ship? Could it be that these two capital ships can still run? Freeland sneered, he would not spare any of the Holy Presence Messengers today, all of them would die today!

"That's not right......" Compared to Freeland, the Cogon people are much calmer.

"Yes, it's all at this point, according to common sense, they should fight back with their lives, anyway, they have lost hope of escaping, so it's better to pull a few more enemies on their backs, but these Holy Presence Messengers are obviously not like this, they are desperately protecting those two or two capital ships!" A staff officer of the Kogon Army analyzed.

"Hmmm! That's right, it seems that they may have some way to do it, or that they have hope of survival, and only in this way will they not choose to fight back desperately, but try to preserve themselves. Another combat staff officer also nodded.

"And that's not all! I think there must be some important person on that capital ship! These ships of the Holy Coming are desperately defending it, could it be that the high priest of the Holy Coming is here!? As soon as the third staff officer spoke, everyone was stupid, for the speculation, though bold, was logical.

If the High Priest of the Holy Coming is really here, then the rescue force of the Holy Coming is probably almost there, and this is also a golden opportunity for the Kogon and Vulcans, if the High Priest can be captured alive, then the battle to conquer the Holy Coming will be much simpler!

Of course, if there is no chance to capture the High Priest alive, even if she is killed, it will be a huge blow to the Holy Messenger, which will leave them leaderless, and at the same time, it will greatly boost their morale.

"Don't let the Messenger of the Holy Presence save her! Assault of the whole army! Put more pressure on them and force them to surrender! "The commander of the Kogon people has made the final decision!
