The Blizzard-class Heavy Cluster Laser Bow Cannon of the T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser finished charging, and a blue beam laser shot straight toward the locked-on T3 Porcupine-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer!
At the same time, that T3 Porcupine-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer also fired a beam laser.
But the difference between the two was like comparing a small toothpick to a hot dog.
Both beams struck the star shields of the opposing starships.
The collision between the beam laser and the star shield resembled the scene of an asteroid crashing into a planet.
T3 Porcupine-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer · Bridge
"Warning! The starship's star shield is under attack. Stellar Shield Energy Value remaining: 95%... 90%... 85%... 80%... 75%..."
The Black Pig Clan Chief stood up in terror from the captain's chair.
He knew the enemy's starship was powerful, but the destructive force of this bow cannon was simply terrifying. The speed at which his star shield energy was dropping was something he had never seen before.
"Gulp..." The Black Pig Clan Chief swallowed hard. "A single beam laser... shouldn't be enough to shatter my T3 Porcupine's star shield, right..."
He stared intently at the flickering numbers, watching them change from green to a warning yellow at just 30%.
Finally, they settled at 15%.
The Black Pig Clan Chief slumped back into his captain's chair, wiping the sweat from his forehead and letting out a long sigh of relief.
"What kind of starship is this? The power of that single shot is absolutely terrifying.
Immediately increase distance from that starship and reinforce our escorting starships." The Black Pig Clan Chief had just given the order when he suddenly heard the starship system's warning alarms.
"Warning! Incoming stellar missiles detected!"
"Warning! Incoming enemy ship shells detected!"
The Black Pig Clan Chief looked again at the external viewport.
Outside the star shield, three stellar missiles struck the shield in succession.
Then, the star shield shattered completely.
"Warning! Star shield under attack. Star shield energy remaining: 10%... 5%... 0%!"
"Warning! Starship Shield System energy depleted."
The Black Pig Clan Chief's face turned deathly pale, his pupils dilated. Because on the starship radar, four electromagnetic cannon shells were shown heading straight for the ship hull!
Those were the four 2500mm Medium Electromagnetic Main Cannons of the T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser!
BOOM
A deafening roar echoed in the Black Pig Clan Chief's ears—the sound of the ship's armor being struck. The entire bridge shook violently, with electrical sparks even flashing across it.
The bridge lighting suddenly dimmed, and the emergency lighting system activated, though it was noticeably dimmer than before.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Before the Black Pig Clan Chief could react, he felt the floor beneath him give way.
Then, with terrified eyes, he watched as a crack opened beneath his feet. A terrifying suction force pulled him directly into the opening...
As he was sucked out, he saw a cross-section of his own starship. Then, he found himself in the vacuum of space, witnessing several large fissures appearing across his starship's hull.
After that... his consciousness faded away.
"Report, our ship's subsequent four electromagnetic cannon shells successfully hit the bridge of that T3 Porcupine-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer, causing the enemy ship's hull to rupture.
That T3 Porcupine-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer has lost combat capability." Secretary Officer Aili quickly reported this news beside Zhao Chen.
At the same time, a system prompt sounded in Zhao Chen's ears.
[Mission progress updated: Destroy one T3 interstellar warship, mission completion 35%]
[Mission progress updated: Eliminate mission target 'Black Pig Clan Chief,' mission completion 40%]
It seemed that T3 Porcupine-class Medium Interstellar Destroyer was the flagship of that Black Pig Clan Chief.
"If it were an ordinary interstellar battleship, perhaps your starship could withstand this round of attacks.
Unfortunately, you're facing the T3 Blizzard—you chose the wrong opponent." Zhao Chen remarked calmly.
The T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser, having annihilated a T3 interstellar warship, proceeded to continue its rapid advance forward as if nothing out of the ordinary had occurred.
While passing by another T3 Stone Statue-class Medium Interstellar Frigate, it conveniently destroyed that ship as well.
This T3 Stone Statue-class Medium Interstellar Frigate was the one that had been severely damaged but not completely destroyed earlier under the attack of the T3 Phantom Sting-class Light Interstellar Stealth Bomber.
Now, the T3 Blizzard-class Light Interstellar Battlecruiser only needed to deliver one round of firepower for a "finishing blow."
[Mission progress updated: Destroy one T3 interstellar warship, mission completion 45%]
"Warning! Our ship has been locked onto by the main cannon of a T3 Scorpion-class Medium Interstellar Cruiser!"
A system alert sounded.
But Zhao Chen showed no sign of panic.
Charlotte had already adjusted the star shield's orientation toward that T3 Scorpion-class Medium Interstellar Cruiser.
Intense artillery fire fell upon the star shield, creating ripples across its surface.
"Warning! The starship's star shield is under attack. Stellar Shield Energy Value remaining: 42%."
Zhao Chen stared at that T3 Scorpion-class Medium Interstellar Cruiser. If he wasn't mistaken, among the remaining T3 interstellar warships, this T3 Scorpion-class Medium Interstellar Cruiser should be Han Tianwang's flagship.
"Report, the quality of this T3 interstellar warship's Starship Shield System is too high! It far exceeds that of ordinary T3 Interstellar Battlecruisers!" the Deputy Captain said helplessly beside Han Tianwang.
"I don't want excuses; I want that damned T3 Blizzard destroyed!" Han Tianwang grabbed the Deputy Captain by the collar and roared.
The Deputy Captain could only sigh—this was the reality.
That T3 interstellar warship, though classified as a stellar battlecruiser, possessed combat capability that would make even interstellar battleships bow before it.
What kind of monster designed this starship? It's simply outrageous.
"Report, our fleet's rear has been ambushed by five hundred Snake People Clan interstellar warships! Due to the chaotic formation, we've suffered significant losses!
Report, the enemy fleet ahead has begun launching active attacks."
A T2 Interstellar Battleship and ten T2 Interstellar Frigates have launched an attack on us. Our frontal fleet... is... struggling to hold on!" A starship crew member reported a series of bad news at that moment.
Han Tianwang roared, "You can't handle that T3 Blizzard, you can't stop those five hundred Snake People Clan interstellar warships. And now you can't even deal with one interstellar battleship and ten interstellar frigates?"
Facing Young Master Han's reprimand, the Deputy Captain and the others exchanged uneasy glances.
The Deputy Captain spoke up, "Young Master Han... it's not that we're incompetent, it's just that these interstellar warships are too bizarre. If you don't believe me, look for yourself. This T2 Interstellar Frigate is practically firing right in the face of our T2 interstellar destroyer, and that T2 Interstellar Battleship has directly targeted our T3 Interstellar Frigate!"
Han Tianwang looked at the display window. Sure enough, a T2 Interstellar Battleship was heading straight toward one of their T3 Stone Statue-class Medium Interstellar Frigates. It was one of the only two remaining out of their five T3 Interstellar Frigates!
