Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1170: Chapter 633: Alfonso’s Retreat

After 144 hours of continuous battle, the number of enemies that have fallen at the hands of Gu Hang and the Interstellar Warriors has exceeded 300,000.

On average, each person has eliminated nearly a thousand enemy units.

Moreover, quite a few of them were not just small fry.

The Protection Army on the Mechanical Ark, in a desperate situation, tried to gather a large number of troops to carry out a blockade.

Poor quality, maximum quantity, they blocked the passage to the energy chamber tightly.

But what use is that?

Having more people is meaningless, it even made things easier for Gu Hang.

There was no need to consider precision strikes, or to estimate how much force to use against high-quality units to avoid not killing them, or going too far and wasting too much power.

Without the Divine Realm to provide backup, it was foreseeable that the battle on Alfonso I would be a long one. Gu Hang had to cherish every bit of his power.

But when faced with such a gathering of riffraff, it was a rare opportunity not to worry too much.

He adjusted his power to the minimum necessary to eliminate the small fry, then expanded the range to the maximum. A sweep of lightning perfectly covered the densely packed enemy positions.

In an instant, no fewer than 30,000 were swept away by the lightning over a vast area.

Only a few managed to withstand Gu Hang’s strikes and survive. However, seeing their nearby comrades suddenly wiped out was quite terrifying. More critically, their original coordination was disrupted. The cannon fodder meant to be the stepping stones were all gone, leaving the handful of surviving elite units to face the Interstellar Warriors’ assault unprepared.

These so-called elite units might not even have the combat power of the Interstellar Warriors, let alone facing a local battlefield with several times more Interstellar Warriors surrounding them, making them incapable of resistance.

Just like that, after a flash of lightning, the passage that was once crowded with enemies became a smooth road, easily paving the way to kill through.

Thereafter, the command system of the Protection Army stopped trying to pile up people.

It was meaningless.

No matter how large the Mechanical Ark was, the space inside for combat was relatively small, and the number of forces that could deploy at the same time was limited. In the limited space, mass gathering small fry was meaningless, only making it easier for the opponent’s firepower to become more effective, providing poor blocking while needlessly sending people to their deaths.

Later, the Protection Army started looking for other methods, switching to deploying high-end military units to block the way.

But the result was not much different.

On Alfonso I, among billions of forces, how many high-end units could be extracted to contend with the Interstellar Warriors?

There were some, but most were large and not convenient to deploy everywhere; and the nimble and precise modified units did exist, but were too scarce.

More critically, even if these forces were dispatched with hopes of blocking the Interstellar Warriors, it would often provoke Gu Hang’s intervention again. The summoned thunder, no unit could endure, leaving them all decimated.

As for blocking Gu Hang?

There’s no way.

Truly no way.

They did try, with the two Principal Sages on the Ark and over twenty Dominant Bishops uniting for a surprise attack on Gu Hang.

At first, they assembled high-level military units, set up an ambush outside an engine room to impede the Interstellar Warriors’ advance. When Gu Hang’s Spiritual Power came into play, they launched an assault on Gu Hang.

However, their surprise attack ultimately failed.

It must be said that so many of the Sect of Mechanics’ top forces gathering together did cause quite a bit of trouble for Gu Hang, making his already scarce spiritual energy reserves even more strained.

However, even at some cost, the ultimate result was still that Gu Hang slaughtered them. A few Dominant Bishops escaped only because Gu Hang focused his goals on those three Principal Sages, prioritizing their deaths, letting a few others go.

After this severe blow, not only did Alfonso I lose its only top-tier combat strength, but its ruling upper echelon was also wiped out.

Did these leaders intend to throw their lives away?

Clearly not.

They simply had no choice.

Everyone could see that Gu Hang, with this wave of Interstellar Warriors, was wreaking havoc within Alfonso I, with the ultimate goal of destroying this grand Mechanical Ark from the inside. These leaders had the chance to leave the ship and escape, but if they still hoped to preserve their ship, to make one last desperate bid, they had to gather everyone to fight back.

Unfortunately, they lost.

But this was not the biggest trouble Gu Hang encountered during his actions.

The greatest crisis arose after these leaders were defeated, leaving a few remaining Dominant Bishops in the dimension with the idea of sacrificing a limb to survive.

It was a ruthless move; they first arranged powerful bombs at an energy chamber and its surroundings. As Gu Hang and his Interstellar Warriors approached, they detonated them themselves.

Blowing themselves up was not the goal, the main purpose was to use the explosion and the chain reaction of the energy chamber to eliminate Gu Hang and his Interstellar Warriors.
