<h4>Chapter 2476: Are You Prepared to Die?</h4>
Inside the maintenance warehouse of the ragged carrier, Li Yao was finishing thest preparations on the crystal suit and the Colossus and setting up the most appropriate magical equipment.
Xiaoming and Wenwen were also testing the space shuttles and the spiritual puppets that were suitable for the battle in space. In terms ofbat style, they were a lot like the Fist King.
“Dad, Xiaoming and I have been thinking for a long time, but we still want to ask—”
While testing, Wenwen asked carefully, “Is it really decent to deceive the children no more than ten years old? Or maybe, have you decided to embark on the journey of bing a superviin, so it doesn’t matter however shameless you are?”
“What are you talking about? What’s ‘deceive’ and ‘shameless’ about?”
Li Yao said matter-of-factly, “That was just ‘necessary modesty’. In front of those kids, I naturally could only say that I was a minor, insignificant hero. Should I tell them the truth that I’m a super invincible hero who saves the world as frequently as they drink water every day? That would’ve sounded too arrogant!”
Xiaoming: “... Nobody is talking about that! We were talking about how you described Boss Bai as a good guy, a hero, a man of honor and integrity who always helped those in need, and the craps like that!”
“Well, about that—”
Li Yao chuckled and said, “That was not entirely a lie. In fact, there are not so many congenital good guys or bad guys. What matters more is the environment and whether or not somebody leads them in the front and pushes them from behind.
“Boss Bai was perhaps not a good guy in the past, but if I push him in the back or even kick him in his bottom heavily, I may be able to kick him to the side of the good guys, right?
“Do you know that being a good guy can be addictive in many cases? It may be ufortable in the beginning, but before you know it, you’ll be addicted and can no longer get rid of it. Hahahaha!
“Right, let’s talk about thatter. Just now, Long Yangjun proposed to split apart. What do you say? Are you going with me or with her?”
Xiaoming and Wenwen looked at each other thoughtfully.
“We’ll go with Aunt Long.”
Wenwen said gently, “This is our first official appearance in a space battlefield of human beings after all. The first impression is too important. We need to try to leave a... good impression on most human beings.”
“Fine, you can go with her. Just be careful!”
Li Yao filled his crystal suit with fuel and put it on. Then, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. “Wait. What do you mean by ‘a good impression’? Why do you think that you can leave a good impression if you go with Long Yangjun instead of me? What’s the meaning of that?”
He was going to pursue further, only to discover that the kids had been carried away by more than ten spiritual puppets in a hurry.
“Dad, we are running out of time. Whatever you want to say, let’s talkter!”
Crawling into the space shuttles that had been installed with super crystal processors and the spiritual powers of the highest level, making themselves enough to be the hotspots of the Spiritual Nexus in space, the kids flew out of the carrier with countless spiritual puppets around and joined Long Yangjun.
“What unlovely kids.”
Li Yao mumbled and absorbed the Colossus into his Cosmos Ring. Exiting the carrier through the double airtight gates, he entered the heated space battlefield too. “The situation doesn’t look good. I can only talk to Boss Bai after I finish the battle in three minutes!”
At this moment, the situation was indeed unfavorable for the federal space pirates and the Cultivators.
The Big Bai Pirate Gang and the Cultivators’ fleet had just been through a fierce battle. They did not have the time to refill the lost fuel and ammunitions, and the damage on the starships was not repaired either. It was not hard to imagine how loose and weak their siege was under such circumstances.
However mediocre the Flying Rainbow Fleet was, it was a local armed force at the edge of the Imperium that had just been upgraded with a batch of powerful starships after all. It had its own tusks and ws.
They had condensed their starships into the tightest battle formation. Their firepower density in the area was multiple times higher than that of the Big Bai Pirate Gang. Soon after the battle began, the Big Bai Pirate Gang’s siege was about to be ripped apart.
“Boss, this is not going to work out. Let’s change the battle formation!”
On Alloy Virus, Xiao Lishui, the dutiful chief of staff, proposed again, “If we fight on like this, our circle will bepletely broken and copsed by the Flying Rainbow Fleet in less than half an hour!
“The enemy is even scanning the center of our information streams and about to lock onto our gship!
“With their dense firepower right now, should they attack our gship, it would be possible that even Alloy Virus would be blown up!”
“What’s the hurry?”
Even though the gship started to take the hit from the enemy, Boss Bai was still as calm as ever. He crossed his hands below his nose and said, “Just wait for a while longer.”
“What are we waiting for?”
Xiao Lishui was anxious. “There won’t be enough time if we don’t transform now!”
“We wait for—”
Boss Bai nced at Xiao Lishui and stared at the few seemingly in light spots on the light beam that represented the ragged carriers, while he gnashed his teeth and said, “—Li Yao to finish his trick. In any case, this is exactly like thest time. We can only trust that this a*shole... can bring a new miracle!”
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!”
Eight hundred kilometers from Alloy Virus, on “Stainless Mouse”, a super arsenal warship of the Big Bai Pirate Gang with the greatest firepower, Han Te was also distributing firepower in a hurry, unleashing the destructive force together with his roars. “Too many! Too many! Too many! Why are there so many hostile warships in our front? It’s impossible to take down all of them!
“Why did Boss Bai make such a weird battle formation? Did he think that he could blow up so many hostile warships because the future ‘Best Banger’ is helping him?
“You are truly... overestimating me, Boss Bai!
“Yes, of course, that must be it. Hehehehe. Since Boss Bai has such high hopes in me, I will certainly not let him down. Come on. Let the storm be more violent. Even if there were ten times more hostile warships, I’m going to blow you up one after another into smithereens!”
On the other side of the battlefield, on “Iron Fist”, the gship of Starlight, the Fist King’sputational ability had been fully carried out too. The array of a hundred super crystal processors that made up his main brain was screeching and squeaking nonstop, with smoke popping up.
Liu Li controlled the venttion and cooling rune arrays to lower the temperature of the Fist King’s brain while she eximed in shock.
“Master Fist King, you can’t do that!
“Stop the calction to increase the precision of shooting. If you continue, the No. 17 crystal processor on your left side will explode in twenty seconds, and another 0.9% of yourputational ability will be lost!
“What are you doing exactly? You are not sparing anything for further changes now that you have devoted all yourputational ability since the moment the battle began. What are we going to doter?”
Seeing that the Fist King did not cherish his brain at all, Liu Li was so angry that she was almost batting his iron skull.
“Don’t worry, Miss Liu Li.”
The Fist King was standing next to Liu Li in amon spiritual puppet as the main vehicle for him to move around. From the broadcast rune arrays, a low and warm voice spread out. “The reinforcements are about toe. It doesn’t matter even if all theputational ability runs out as long as we persist until that moment. Then, we will just watch him y.”
“Huh?”
Liu Li was stunned. Looking at the burning space disyed on the virtual light beam, she asked, “What reinforcements can possibly resist a whole charging fleet?”
At the center of the battlefield, centered at the gship, the Flying Rainbow Fleet had indeed elerated to the highest speed and was about to crash into the area that had the densest information traffic and where Alloy Virus was at.
It appeared that the sparse firepower around Alloy Virus could barely resist the torrent of the Flying Rainbow Fleet and would likely be separated from the other starships around.
On the bridge of the Flying Rainbow Fleet, people were already talking andughing.
“Those nobles are just pretentious phonies who do not know war at all. They will be blown apart in such a weird battle formation very quickly!”
“They must’ve fought the garrison of the Blue Sky Market just now, which is why their starships are damaged and their spiritual shields are not in the best shape. Why do they want to swallow their ‘ally’ under such circumstances? What are the nobles thinking really?”
“It doesn’t matter. After their siege is broken and they are separated, we will know what they are up to. Our defense is justified in this conflict, and the victory will be easy. It won’t matter even if the case is reported to the four Kurfürsten!”
“Let’s go! Let’s go! Let’s go!”
But only three secondster, the merry atmosphere was disrupted by a stammering exmation.
“R-Report, an extremely-intense high-energy reaction has been detected right... right on our fleet’s way!”
...
The infinite brilliant stars in the vast space were eclipsed by the fire of destruction that human beings set with their wisdom and hatred.
Right ahead of the marching Flying Rainbow Fleet, where the destructive fire was densest, Li Yao floated in the sweltering vacuum while wearing only the thin crystal suit. He watched the hundreds of erging warships that wereing at him like shooting stars from not far away.
“Let’s confirm onest time—”
Li Yao asked Xiaoming and Wenwen in themunication channel. “ording to the intelligence after you hacked the gship of the Flying Rainbow Fleet, there are no captives on the gship, right?”
“No.”
Xiaoming and Wenwen said, “The gship is of paramount importance and has limited space. Naturally, the unimportant captives would not be kept in such a critical ce.”
“That’s good.”
Li Yao said, “On the other hand, you are mostly done with the hacking, cracking, and duplicating work of the battlework of the Flying Rainbow Fleet, right? I don’t need you to make a second mand center of the Flying Rainbow Fleet’. As long as you can disrupt the enemy’s information transmission after I seed, it will be enough.
“To put it more simply, once I chop off the head of the Flying Rainbow Fleet, I do not want them to grow a second one. Can you do that?”
“Rest assured, Dad.”
Xiaoming and Wenwen said lightheartedly, “We’ve been dealing with the Flying Rainbow Fleet for such a long time exactly because we arepromising their battlework and nting all the ‘viruses’ and ‘bombs’, haven’t we? It’s all gone. There won’t be a problem at all!”
“Understood!”
Faced with the main forces of the Flying Rainbow Fleet that were rushing close, Li Yao straightened his arms and opened his hands, while the Cosmos Ring in which the Colossus was stored emitted a weird and bloody brilliance. “Then... prepare to die now!”
