Chapter 1793: Chapter 565: Assault on the Assailants (6k)_2

Only at this time did the fleet seem to realize belatedly, as some warships at the rear began adjusting the direction of shield generation, establishing a temporary Joint Shield.

"It’s done!"

On the flagship of the Imperial Fleet, the Commander stared at the giant virtual screen at the front of the command room, excitedly shaking his tightly clenched right hand.

At this moment, a communication request from the Radiant Federation suddenly popped up on the virtual screen, and the Commander’s eyes lit up as he immediately connected.

"Friends of the Gemini Empire, this is the Radiant Federation’s temporary rescue fleet. We have reached the designated location and are conducting a fire strike.

The communication link request has been applied; please maintain contact."

The Commander of the Radiant Federation conducted the handover solemnly, as these are the military officers of two top civilizations, usually in a relationship of mutual antagonism and competition. Even when cooperating, don’t expect a warm face.

Nevertheless, the commander of the Imperial Fleet responded in a friendly tone:

"Thank you for your rescue, the communication link has been established, and the command system adaptation has been completed."

The brief communication ended, and the previously oppressive atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.

"There’s actually a whole United Fleet as reinforcements from the Radiant Federation!

Following this trend, the Church’s attack fleet will definitely have its shields broken earlier than ours!"

"Don’t be too happy yet." Bai Yi poured cold water on the commander’s joy.

"Now it’s their turn to be caught in a pincer attack; feeling threatened, they certainly won’t sit still.

I can already sense that the Favored skilled in Teleportation is over there, and with their powers, they might launch another high-tier surprise attack."

"Oh? Is that your guess?"

The Emperor pondered, turning to look at Fan Mao.

"It’s just simple reasoning." Bai Yi spread his hands, shaking his head.

"That’s true. But if they indeed come for a surprise attack, it’s even better, as the high-tier Transcendents specially dispatched for secrecy this time are enough for them to drink a big pot."

Thinking of those high-tier Transcendents who arrived one after another lately, Bai Yi also broke into a smile.

"I’ll go prepare now."

.........

Inside the flagship of the Church’s attack fleet, watching the battlefield projection where the light spots representing friendly warships kept dimming, the Favored [Traveler]’s teeth were about to break from clenching, resembling a volcano on the verge of eruption, creating a grim atmosphere that deterred anyone from approaching.

Afraid of becoming a target of anger.

The believer ready to report saw this appearance, swallowed hard, and could only cautiously lower his voice as he approached.

"Favored sir, the Joint Shield at the rear has been supported, and this attack has resulted in a loss of approximately two fleets of normal composition, and furthermore..."

"What furthermore?"

With a glimpse from the Favored, the reporting believer shuddered immediately and hurriedly said:

"Moreover, the number of Radiant Federation fleets at the rear is substantial. Combined with the Imperial fleets, now we... may not be able to hold out longer than the Imperial Fleet..."

Boom!

The Favored slammed the projection table in front, causing everyone around to tremble involuntarily.

His heavy breathing and heaving shoulders indicated he was already on the edge of erupting.

The Favored [Traveler] was utterly confused. Clearly, this was their assault, their fleet should have suddenly appeared behind the Imperial Fleet, catching the Empire off guard.

Causing the Empire to suffer massive losses, swiftly winning under the pincer attack and Combat Power crushing.

They had tried this tactic more than once, and it had never failed, even without the pincer attack or Combat Power advantage, just a rear assault.

But why now, not only did the Imperial Fleet seem to have prepared in advance during their assault, suffering none of the anticipated losses.

But now, they have encountered the same assault, and the Three Great Civilizations have achieved the results they desired.

Good news, the planned results were achieved.

Bad news, the results were obtained by the other side from themselves.

Fortunately, he’s not someone who’d be overwhelmed by anger, or rather, hasn’t reached his limit yet.

Knowing the most crucial thing now is to resolve the issue.

After a few seconds of silence, his rationality has returned, and although still visibly angry, he can think calmly again.

"Contact the main fleet, report the situation here to them."

"Favored sir, this has been done. The Favored sir of the main fleet passed on that they will intensify the offensive..."

"Hmph! Those muscle-brains dead so many, yet are they actually thinking..."

The Favored [Traveler] snorted contemptuously.

Speaking of intensifying the offensive, fleet attacks don’t simply get stronger by trying hard!

This clearly means doing nothing!

Now the battlefield situation is like a fog, no longer clear.

If any extra arrangements are made, if victorious, nothing happens. But if this war is lost, responsibilities must be borne.

Yet if doing nothing, completely following the original plan, even if defeated, the Favored [Longevity] commanding the main fleet doesn’t need to bear additional responsibilities.

But the main fleet hasn’t been attacked and isn’t in a hurry; his raid fleet caught in a pincer attack is miserable!

The anger that was just suppressed is rising again, taking a deep breath a few times before the Favored gave a muffled order:

"All high-level believers get ready, we’re launching a surprise attack!"

"Yes..."

The high-level believers in the command room were quaking in fear, daring not to retort.

Previously, they weren’t taking action because there was no need.
