Chapter 236: Falling Short (Asking for Subscription)
Zhang Han stared at the forerunner who appeared in front of him, and his gaze became solemn.
He clenched the weapon in his hand, every inch of muscle under the armor had been mobilized, and once he struck, it would be a thunderous blow.
Arcade and the others gathered next to Zhang Han, and they took down the explosive rifle fixed to their waists.
The Empire's military power is absolutely overwhelming the remnants of the Star Alliance, and considering that the other side may have psionics, they are armed with blasters that specialize in overcoming psionics.
Who ever wanted to use it against the Star Covenant when it didn't work, but instead used it against the Forerunners who came out.
Each fighter held their breath, squinted slightly, and prepared for a battle to the death.
So far, the Galactic Empire has inherited the legacy of the Human Alliance, and the Precursor civilization is the existence that made the Human Alliance suffer a great loss in the past.
To despise these Precursor warriors is bound to be extremely costly.
Only with all our might can we guarantee to win this battle.
Unlike the solemnity of Zhang Han and the others, Vadami, who was already ready to die, showed an excited look on his face.
He respectfully saluted the Precursor warriors, and his heart was filled with emotion, thinking that he was doomed to death, and the fleet of refugees would be wiped out by humanity, and the Covenant would exist in name only, becoming the ashes of history.
Who would have thought that the gods they worshipped, the Precursors, did not abandon them and came here to receive them.
Seeing the presence of these Precursor warriors, Vaadami's frightened heart calmed down, and he knew that these humans had failed.
There was no way they could destroy the Covenant in front of the Precursors.
The remnants of the Covenant will retreat into deep space, where they will rise again to wage revenge and war against humanity.
The excited voices of the commanders of the ships were heard from the communicator.
"It's the forerunners, and we're saved."
"God, you finally hear our call, punish the damned demons."
"Kill all the humans, and don't let them escape."
The noisy sound in the communicator made Vadami subconsciously glance at the holographic battlefield simulation on the side, and at a glance, he was stunned, and one by one the green light points emitting fluctuations appeared out of thin air, stabilizing the situation of the originally collapsed void battlefield.
Next to the holographic battlefield simulator is a screen showing footage taken by optical equipment.
I saw the darkness and boundless void, one after another ring-shaped metal celestial bodies appeared in the void, and continued to release all kinds of terrifying fire attacks on the human fleet.
Their appearance threw the human warships that had crushed the Covenant into chaos, forcing them to assemble and readjust their tactics.
A human battleship was destroyed, flashes of explosion like newborn stars, and countless melted wreckage crashed in all directions, causing even more chaos.
Zhang Han's communicator also sounded William's voice.
"We have been attacked by the Precursor warships, they are menacing and fierce, we must recall the fleet in the hands of Julius and Zhao Shang, otherwise we will lose the Void War."
Recalling the fleet led by the two means that the encirclement tactics have failed, and the Covenant ships will have a chance to escape.
"Withdraw, and destroy those Precursor ships first." Zhang Han said into the communicator and agreed to the other party's request.
The Covenant fled and fled, and he couldn't bury the Third Expeditionary Fleet here.
If the previous tactics were to continue, the main fleet led by the Judgment Blade would certainly not be a match for the Covenant fleet and the Precursor fleet.
Zhao Shang and Julius must be withdrawn and the scattered fleet can be brought together.
Once the main force led by William fails, the fleets in the hands of the two of them will also be broken by the other side one by one, and the third fleet will overturn in the Carpuse system.
Captain William, who was under the command of the Judgment Blade, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zhang Han's words.
He was afraid that Zhang Han, who was the commander of the legion, would ignore it as soon as the battle began.
In that case, it would be a catastrophe for the Third Expeditionary Fleet.
Fortunately, that situation did not happen, Zhang Han's sanity did not get out of control, and he decisively gave up his plan to destroy the remnants of the Star Alliance.
"Immediately recall all fleets, change the original tactical arrangement, we must concentrate on destroying the forces of the Covenant and the Precursors." William gave a new order.
"Unusual psionic reaction detected." The officer in charge of detecting the array shouted.
"Send data and footage to my database."
As soon as William's words fell, a new window of information opened in front of him.
A strange arc appeared in the Carapus system, faintly trying to cut it open.
"What is this?" William asked.
"It could be a subspace rift, it's forming." Head of Navigation, Elfa, walked up to him and explained, "If I'm not mistaken, it could be the work of the Precursors, who wanted to destroy the subspace vortex created by the Human Alliance and take the fleeing Covenant ships. ”
"Can you detect the root cause?" William looked at the official in charge of detection, "There must be a source for the Precursors to try to open the crack in the subspace. If we can stop the source, maybe we can stop them from leaving, or at least not let them all run away. ”
"I'll try." The official's expression was uncertain, he had never located such a thing, he didn't have any experience, but he still tried hard to do it, maybe the device originally had these functions, or maybe it was the blessing of the God Emperor, he finally lived up to William's expectations and found the root.
"Here, the source of anomalous psionic fluctuations." The officer sent a packet to William.
William opened the packet, which contained the detected footage and data.
He saw a giant battleship that seemed to be made of crystal floating near the star, and it was emitting strong psionic fluctuations, and the power of sorcery was spreading around it, gradually distorting the laws of reality.
"Finding a way to kill it, no matter what its intentions, destroying it is the right choice."
"We can't leave, those Covenant ships are suddenly so tenacious, and those Precursor warships that suddenly appear are stopping us."
William was eager to do something to stop what was coming.
He had the Judgment Blade and the accompanying fleet open fire at all costs, breaking through the enemy blockade at all costs and destroying the giant crystal battleship.
However, the speed of the enemy was faster, it was a long-planned rescue, and the human reaction had long been calculated by the Precursors.
The psionic energy fluctuations that escaped from the crystal giant ship reached their peak ten minutes after the Judgment Blade detected it.
A terrifying psionic blast swept in all directions like a tidal wave, centered on the giant crystal battleship.
The space-time structure of the Caraps galaxy was destroyed in that instant, the light emanating from the stars emanating from the stars emanated estrangely and erupting inexplicably, and lightning leaping in the cold space, brighter than the dimming of daylight.
A terrifying stream of aetheric energy poured down the crystal battleship into reality, breaking through the barriers of reality and turning into a sharp sword that sliced through the skin of reality.
The subspace opened its huge mouth, and the light of paradox poured out of it, boiling, flowing, and transforming into countless strange and completely unreasonable things, making every creature that saw it let out a groan of pain.
William also let out a scream, and the fluctuations and distortions of the space-time structure were transmitted to the Judgment Blade, and the mechanical spirit screamed, affecting William who was connected to the main console.
A terrifying crack appeared in the Calapus system, like a huge cracked mouth, from which cosmic blood gushed out, half-formed matter gushed out, and the tip of the iceberg could be faintly seen through the crevice.
The horrible limbs, the tentacles, the teeth tumbled between melting and condensing repeatedly.
The tumbling aether gushed out like an outpouring flood, instantly permeating every corner of the galaxy.
Psykers could feel their power grow, and countless evil eyes watched them, eager to devour their souls and flesh.
Ordinary people feel something whispering in their ears.
The structure built by the Human Alliance to clog the currents of the subspace has failed, at least temporarily, and ships can travel directly beyond the galaxy without having to re-enter reality.
The Covenant ships that had been hunted turned on their subspace thrusters, rushed into the subspace from the bloody slaughterhouse, and then fled.
Vadami exuded an excited look, the fleeing fleet did not need to enter reality anymore, and the speed of escape was much faster all of a sudden.
On the side of the Star Alliance flagship, Zhang Han also heard the report from William's side, and a wave of anger surged in his heart.
After so much hard planning, it seems that the Star Alliance can be completely annihilated, who would have thought that the forerunners would come to disrupt the situation and save all those damn alien races.
Damn bastard, I'm going to kill this guy myself.
However, this anger was quickly suppressed by the reason in his heart, and Zhang Han's gaze became cold again, full of murderous intent.
Anger won't help, it will only expose oneself to flaws.
He stared at the Precursor in front of him and uttered a beastly voice, "Die, bastard. ”
The Precursor didn't speak, he just made a battle gesture.
Zhang Han took the lead in attacking, his movements were calm and powerful, with the fury of a beast.
The Precursor warrior had the opposite movement, very vigorous and graceful, as if he were dancing.
There is a huge contrast between the two, but the killing contained in them is the same.
The Precursor warrior raised the light blade in his hand and blocked Zhang Han's attack.
The weapons of both sides collided, sending out a terrifying shockwave.
In terms of strength, the two sides were evenly matched, and each was forced back a few steps by the impact of the collision.
However, the forerunner's reaction speed was fast, and he appeared on the other side of Zhang Han with a flash, and the light blade in his hand appeared out of thin air, stabbing Zhang Han's neck, trying to cut off his head.
Three thousand words, barely enough for 10,000. Although it is still a bit poor, it can barely make up 10,000.
