The Emperor’s Angel of Death

The latest website: From the bridge of the Vengeful Spirit, the course correction order was issued again, passed out of the command layer, spread from the center, and entered the bridge of each frigate and cruiser.

The exhausted navigation crew responded again, squeezing power from the overloaded engine, entering extremely tight reaction times, and re-entering a new attack mode.

There was no time to prepare a formation, and Einglaspeier shouted orders to organize the troops into a rough assault formation - the three capital ships that had previously served as the rear guard, and the four capital ships, including the Spirit of Vengeance, in the center. The surviving cruisers took cover.

Two quick reaction forces, each containing six destroyers, were assembled on the flanks, ready to break through quickly as the enemy formed.

A long list of less capable ships, along with the surviving squadrons of raiders, served as a reserve, either at the highest or lowest point to prevent flanking.

The sudden counterattack of the Black Legion was indeed unexpected by Lothar, because the previous signs of the opponent were undoubtedly a sign of retreat.

But time was too late to react so much, and the wounded beast burst out with its last strength.

The high point of the battle erupted as the last of the ships were entering their designated positions.

The formation of frigates with the eagle emblem on their flanks burst into the battle circle, lances fired, and they were followed by more frigates, then strike cruisers, battlecruisers and eventually battleships.

On the Imperial side there are more than six large cruisers and three heavy battleships of the Navy, including the battle barge Heart of Light, watching each other in a tightly linked network of support ships, but due to previous pursuit orders, there is actually still a little bit between the various battleships Clearance.

The battle was fierce from the start, with the Imperial side forming a classic encirclement formation, with gunboats and warplanes taking off from open hangars, swarming and tumbling into attack vectors.

The bow light spear fired, and the ship's killing energy slammed into the void shield array.

In just a few seconds, the two fleets had already started a full-scale war, intertwining, spinning, and merging with each other.

The capital ships became stable archipelagos, a riot of destruction radiated all around, several squadrons of attack boats were wiped out by a broadside salvo, their explosive wreckage smashed into the larger hull at full speed, tearing pieces off the killer's broadside. . Each ship was operating at full power, firing their remaining shells and torpedoes, filling the cavity with a swirling storm of wreckage.

Eternal Loyalty sits in the middle of the Imperial front, surrounded by a steady stream of suppressive laser fire, supported by the large cruiser Unbound Soul on its flanks.

Just not far from it, the Thunder of the Vengeful Spirit generally passes through the center of the battle field, smashing the boats that are too slow or too clumsy to dodge.

It is like a wild boar, ready to perish with its hunters.

On the bridge of the Eternal Loyalty, each Space Marine dons his helmet and draws his weapon.

Mainly the astral knights, more than a hundred warriors, including the White Templar and the Ranger Warriors, gathered here and were scattered on different terraces.

Including Bahram and others of the Eleventh Company who had returned to the flagship for treatment due to injury, were among them.

Every mortal crew member was wearing respirators and bulletproof armor, and under the dim battle lights, there was iron ashes.

"It seems that the other party is ready to take risks."

Lothar watched as the vengeful spirit approached, the enemy flagship tumbling in the expanding burning wreckage, which had brought down two attacking frigates, lances piercing their hearts before they could react.

"Somewhat careless."

Everyone on the bridge knew the risks, the level of the enemy's threat, and they all agreed.

They had avoided close combat as much as possible, because the only option for the Black Legion to win was to cut the throat and bite the neck of the Imperial commander.

But they had never been able to do it before. They didn't expect that a camouflaged retreat would give them an opportunity to break directly to the vicinity of the flagship.

The two flagships got closer and closer, smashing away the small warships that kept coming to block them, the incoming firepower smashed into the hull, and the void shields on both sides continued to decay in the whirlpool of colors.

The bridge of Eternal Loyalty was trembling, all its guns firing in turns, frantically consuming the remaining ammunition reserves.

It is a pity that the cooling time of the rift cannon is very long, otherwise, if a cannon is fired at this distance, even the soul of vengeance will surely fall.

Lothar felt a little annoyed, but there was nothing he could do.

"I guess the enemy intends to jump straight to the gang."

Sabrin, whose injuries had not fully recovered, leaned against the wall and spoke his thoughts.

"With the shield and armor of eternal loyalty, it is unrealistic for the spirit of vengeance to directly take us down. The fastest way is to jump gang."

Lothar nodded, and he thought about it too.

"So he will overload our shields first."

As he spoke, the vengeful spirit was swimming towards them in the image of the bow of the ship. The flagship's giant screen cracked, reflecting the majestic body of the enemy ship.

The Spirit of Vengeance towered above them, like a bird of prey hovering high in the sky, its arsenal opened, hurling wave after wave of shells at the Eternal Loyalty's flaming shield, causing it to decay and shrink.

"Counterattack!"

The spears of the Eternal Loyalty also began to shine, streaks of light hitting the bow of the Vengeful Spirit.

At this time, the Unbound Soul not far away also used a high-power light spear to support, reducing the shield of the Vengeful Soul.

This blow worked well, allowing Eternal Loyalty's firepower to break through the shield and hit the opponent's heavy hull armor, continuing to penetrate, but it couldn't stop the battleship's orbit.

Correspondingly, all the intact cannons of the Spirit of Vengeance also fired at the same time, filling the space near the Eternal Loyalty with flames, and the external image was dyed white.

The Soul of Vengeance is indeed not a vain name. Its firepower has been seen by Lothar in his life. The shield of the Eternal Loyalty did not last long before it went out, and then the hull began to be hit, and various sensors Overloaded, yelling meaningless readings at site operators.

At the same time, the bridge was also shocked, cracks spread from the deck to the dome, and every broken power line and energy circuit was exploding.

"Stop!"

Lothar roared the command, he still stood there, holding the sword around his waist, his eyes swept across the mess around him.

"Counterattack!"

As soon as the words flew out, a second explosion occurred several decks down, causing the plastic-steel beams below to expand.

Then, the Void Shield at the front let out a whine of static electricity, revealing an unprotected pitch-black void.

A second later, the dazzling etheric energy filled the bridge, and then there was a loud noise of air replacement. It was obvious that the enemy had already prepared and did not intend to use any jumping equipment, but directly used the wizard to use the warp portal to teleport jump. help!
