Chapter 346 The Impact of Energy Pulses and the Sudden Turning Point
The energy pulse, like a surging tide, crashed violently into the dark forces' defensive network. In an instant, blinding light and deafening explosions filled the air. Enemy aircraft, like leaves swept by a gale, lost control under the energy impact, their trajectories becoming chaotic. The energy shields of the defensive structures flickered violently, and energy readings plummeted.
"Effective! Continue increasing energy output!" Lin Yu's voice echoed throughout the fleet via the communicator, his tone filled with excitement and anticipation. The warships operated at full capacity, continuously releasing energy pulses, causing the dark forces' defenses to teeter on the brink of collapse.
However, the dark forces did not collapse easily. They quickly activated their backup defense mechanism, and the remaining aircraft rapidly regrouped, constructing a new energy barrier around the defensive structures. This barrier, formed from the combined energy of the aircraft, shimmered with an eerie light, and effectively blocked all subsequent energy pulses from the fleet.
"The energy intensity of this new defensive barrier is beyond our imagination; our attack has been blocked." Ellie stared intently at the screen, her brows furrowed into a deep frown, her voice filled with anxiety.
Lin Yu's gaze was fixed on the battlefield, his mind racing, trying to find a way to break the deadlock. He noticed that although the dark forces had constructed a new defense, the energy consumption was enormous, and the energy fluctuations of the defensive facilities and aircraft were extremely violent.
"Everyone, hold your ground. The enemy's energy is also being depleted. We'll keep applying pressure and look for their weaknesses." Lin Yu encouraged the fleet's morale while carefully observing the details of the battlefield.
The battle continued, with both sides locked in a stalemate. While the fleet's attacks failed to breach the new defenses, they also prevented the dark forces from retaliating. Just as the situation reached a deadlock, Ellie suddenly shouted, "Lin Yu, I've discovered a crucial point in the enemy's defenses! In the center of that large defensive structure, there's an energy hub, seemingly the core of the entire defense system. Destroying it will dismantle their defenses."
Lin Yu looked in the direction Ellie indicated, and the screen showed a point of light emitting strong energy fluctuations, surrounded by dense defensive facilities and aircraft.
“This energy hub is heavily defended; a direct attack would be unlikely to be effective.” Lin Yu knew the mission was daunting, but his eyes gleamed with determination. “However, we are not without a chance.” He quickly devised a new plan and deployed it in detail to the fleet via communicator.
Several warships formed a feint attack squadron, drawing enemy fire from the front. They released powerful energy signals, simulating a large-scale attack, causing the dark forces' aircraft and defenses to concentrate their firepower on this area. At the same time, Lin Yu personally led an elite assault squadron, piloting a specially modified small warship with superior maneuverability and stealth capabilities, to quietly circle around to the enemy's rear.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the battlefield and their stealth capabilities, the assault team successfully evaded enemy patrols and gradually approached the energy hub. However, just as they were about to reach their target, an enemy patrol ship suddenly appeared and headed straight for the assault team.
"Damn it, we've been spotted! Prepare for battle!" Lin Yu quickly gave the order, and the assault team instantly went into combat mode. Stealth devices were forced to deactivate, and the warship's weapon systems operated at full power. The patrol ship launched the first attack, unleashing beams of energy at the assault team.
"Dodge the attack, counterattack!" Lin Yu maneuvered the warship nimbly, while simultaneously directing his team to return fire. Although the assault team's warship was small, it possessed formidable firepower, and in the fierce exchange of fire, it fought the patrol ship to a standstill.
Just as the two sides were locked in fierce combat, news came from the feint attack team that they had successfully drawn a large amount of enemy fire, creating a brief breach in the dark forces' defenses. Lin Yu knew this was a fleeting opportunity, so he decisively increased the warship's power and charged towards the energy hub.
The assault team charged through a hail of bullets, finally reaching the vicinity of the energy hub. Without hesitation, Lin Yu fired a specially designed energy-destruction bullet, accurately hitting its target. With a deafening roar, the energy hub erupted in a blinding light, and the entire defense system began to collapse. The dark forces' aircraft and defensive structures lost power and were paralyzed.
"Success!" A cheer erupted from the fleet. Lin Yu, without a moment to celebrate, immediately ordered, "Pursue the victory! Break through the enemy's defenses completely and approach the mysterious planet!" The fleet, like a sharp blade, tore through the remaining defenses of the dark forces, advancing at full speed towards the mysterious planet. But what unknowns and challenges would they encounter as they truly approached the planet?
