Chapter 634: Alfonzo Retreats

After 144 hours of continuous fighting, the number of enemies killed by Gu Hang and the Space Marines has exceeded .

On average, each person destroyed nearly a thousand enemy units.

Moreover, a considerable number of them are not small fry.

The Crusaders on the Mechanical Ark had tried to mobilize a large number of troops to block the route when they had no choice.

The quality is not very good, but the quantity is too high, which has completely blocked the passage leading to the energy cabin.

But what's the use?
Having too many people is meaningless and even makes things convenient for Gu Hang.

There is no need to consider precision strikes, nor do you have to estimate how much effort to use when facing some high-quality units, so as to avoid failing to kill them or hitting them too hard. The goal is to kill them, but too much effort is wasted.

Without the Kingdom of God to provide support, it can be foreseen that the battle on Alfonzo I will be a long one, and Gu Hang must cherish every bit of his strength.

But it is rare to encounter this kind of group of miscellaneous soldiers, so you don't need to think too much about it.

The power was kept to the minimum to eliminate the miscellaneous soldiers, and the range was extended to the maximum. This wave of lightning swept down, just covering the densely packed enemy area.

In an instant, no less than 30,000 people were swept away by the lightning in a vast area.

Only a few of them were able to withstand Gu Hang's attack and survive. However, the sudden annihilation of all the comrades around them was still quite shocking. More importantly, the original coordination was disrupted. The miscellaneous soldiers who were originally used as stepping stones and cannon fodder were all gone. The few surviving advanced units were caught off guard and had to face the impact of the Space Marines.

It is hard to say whether these so-called advanced units have the combat power of Space Marines. What's more, they have to face sieges by Space Marines that are several times their number in various local battlefields at the same time, so they have no ability to resist.

Just like that, after a flash of lightning, the passage that was originally crowded with a large number of enemies became a smooth road, and they killed their way out smoothly.

After that, the Skitarii's command system stopped trying to stack people.

no point.

No matter how big the mechanical ark is, the space for fighting inside is relatively small, and the number of troops that can be deployed at the same time is limited. In a limited space, it is meaningless to pile up miscellaneous soldiers, which can only make the opponent's firepower more lethal, but the blocking effect is very poor, and it is just a waste of heads to be killed.

Afterwards, the Crusaders began to find other ways and changed to using high-end combat forces to block the attack.

But the results weren't much different.

In the entire lifetime of Alfonzo I, with hundreds of millions of troops, how many advanced units could be rescued that could fight against the Space Marines?
Yes, there are, but most of them are very large and it is inconvenient to fight in any place; and there are also those small and powerful modified bodies, but they are too rare.

More importantly, even if this kind of troops were deployed, hoping to stop the Space Marines, they would often provoke Gu Hang's attack again. No unit could withstand the thunder that was summoned, and they were all blown to pieces.

And want to stop Gu Hang?

There is nothing we can do.

There is really no other way.

It’s not that they didn’t try. The two main sages on the Ark and more than twenty ruling bishops joined forces to launch a surprise attack on Gu Hang.

First, they assembled high-level military units and made an ambush, blocking the advance of the Space Marines outside an engine compartment. When Gu Hang's psychic power was used, they also rushed out and launched a surprise attack on Gu Hang.

However, their raid ultimately failed.

It has to be said that the gathering of so many top forces within the Mechanicus still caused Gu Hang considerable trouble, making his already limited spiritual energy reserves even worse.

However, even if it cost some money, the final result was that Gu Hang killed them. A few ruling bishops escaped, but it was only because Gu Hang's target was the two main sages, and he wanted to kill them first, so he let a few people go.

After suffering this severe blow, Alfonzo I not only lost his only top combat force, but also the senior officials in charge, who were also destroyed.

Do these senior executives just want to die?
Apparently not.

They just can't help it.

It can be seen that Gu Hang led this group of space warriors to stir up trouble in Alfonzo I, and his ultimate goal was to destroy this great mechanical ark from the inside. The senior leaders had a chance to leave the ship and escape, but if they still wanted to protect their own ships and make a final desperate attack, they had to gather together and fight.

It’s a pity that I lost the fight.

But this is not the biggest trouble Gu Hang encountered during the operation.

The biggest crisis was after the fall of these high-level leaders, when the remaining few ruling bishops of the dimension decided to cut off their arms to survive.

That was a ruthless move. They had placed powerful bombs in an energy cabin and its surroundings. After Gu Hang and his space warriors approached, they detonated themselves.

Blowing oneself up is certainly not the goal. The most important thing is to kill Gu Hang and his space warriors through the explosion and the detonation of the energy cabin.

Even if it fails, a simple explosion is not enough to destroy them. The bombs placed around them will blow this energy cabin and the entire surrounding area out of the mechanical structure of the Mechanical Ark.

They would rather blow a big hole in their own mechanical ark and abandon part of their "body" to isolate Gu Hang and his gang.

They did it.

But it doesn't make sense.

The problem still lies with Gu Hang. The Space Marines protected by psychic energy transferred them to a relatively safe structure before the explosion, and survived the dangerous explosion of the energy cabin. Then, they were collectively transferred from the wreckage that was blown away to the mechanical ark.

The remaining Mechanicus leaders in the Mechanical Ark were completely speechless. Under the shadow of the warp, even some of their own tools made with psychic power were useless. This Gu Hang... was too exaggerated. Not only could he call upon thunder, which was extremely powerful, but he could also teleport with hundreds of Space Marines. The shadow of the warp seemed to be made of paper, and had no restrictive effect at all!
But in fact, Gu Hang’s life was not easy either.

Every confrontation was a drain on his own strength. Although he had been carefully using his spiritual energy from the beginning, knowing that he needed to fight for a long time and it would be difficult to replenish it. However, one battle after another went on without a break. No matter how powerful Gu Hang was, no matter how carefully he used his strength, in the end, he was inevitably on the verge of exhaustion.

But fortunately, the effect is enough.

When Gu Hang led the Space Marines to destroy a key area once again, the entire ship finally could not maintain its internal ecology.

The life support system was being destroyed, the ship was disintegrating, and internal explosions caused by chain reactions occurred again and again inside the ship.

The surviving high-ranking members of Alfonzo's sect had abandoned this mechanical ark some time ago and fled on a small boat.

There were quite a few people following them.

But in the final analysis, among the hundreds of millions of people in the mechanical ark, only a minority of the minority can ultimately escape.

In the end, most people will be buried with this huge mechanical ark.

The last vehicle to escape from the mechanical ark was the spaceship carrying Gu Hang and the two hundred surviving shadow warriors.

As for the rest of the spaceships, we will naturally destroy them as much as possible to prevent the people behind from escaping.

Gu Hang and others who escaped on the spaceship were not having an easy time either.

They were in a mechanical ark before, and the Mechanicus fleet outside couldn't do anything to them. They couldn't fire at their own mechanical ark, and it would be useless.

But now, realizing that Gu Hang and his companions had escaped on a small spaceship inside the mechanical ark, they would naturally not let them go.

A large amount of firepower was directed towards them.

In an instant, their situation became extremely dangerous.

But in the end, they returned home successfully.

There are two main factors. One is Gu Hang's psychic power, which played a big role. Even if he was at the end of his strength, it was difficult for him to deflect the enemy's firepower, but for such a small ship, he could have a good control, making it as invisible as possible and not easy to be locked, and also making the trajectory of the ship mysterious and unpredictable during detection, making it extremely difficult to be hit.

The other reason, of course, was that the main fleet of the alliance came to assist.

This was because they had received Gu Hang's order early on and took the initiative to attack.

What could Alfonzo's fleet do?

The most important flagship in the entire confrontation, Alfonzo I, was already in an irreversible state of collapse. Although it had not yet been completely destroyed, it was already beyond repair.

According to a few senior officials who escaped from Alfonzo I, their boss, the Great Sage Varuc, was eliminated by Gu Hang.

Having lost both their flagship and their leader, the entire fleet was in chaos and their fighting spirit was even weaker.

These infected members of the Mechanicus are not like the regular Zerg, and there is no morale. They will still panic and have internal disputes.

Moreover, even if they have strong Zerg characteristics, Gu Hang has dealt with Varuk, the current supreme leader. Varuk can be regarded as the highest-level node creature. His capture will also cause chaos for the lower-level node creatures and the vast number of severely infected people.

Under such circumstances, Alfonzo's fleet had no intention of fighting head-on with the main fleet of the alliance. It made a slight gesture and then retreated.

This also allowed Gu Hang to successfully return to his own starship.

After a quick meeting with Ye Lixia, Gu Hang returned to his quiet room and sat down without moving.

He did not rush to return his spiritual will to the Kingdom of Storm God, but instead rested and healed his wounds for half a month.

In the previous battle, we were overexerted and could not bear it without rest.

Moreover, it would take time for all the hundreds of millions of infected and transformed creatures on that ship to die. The scale of the mechanical ark was too huge. After the collapse, there might be many survivors in some of the fragments and wreckage. Or they might be lucky enough to encounter a ship wreckage with an independent life support system and barely survive, or they might have brought equipment that could survive in space, so they would not die immediately. Maybe many of them could wait for the rescue ship of Alfonzo's fleet.

But no matter what, those who can survive and be saved are only a minority. The rest will die in large numbers in the next few days, ten days, or even a month.

Gu Hang doesn't need to rush.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

When Gu Hang was about to finish his rest and project his mind back to the Kingdom of Storm God, there was movement in the real universe.

Alfonzo's fleet withdrew.

How could I let you run away?
Yelicia received the order and the alliance fleet set out in pursuit.

He would not push too hard, but would just chase after them from behind, watching them eagerly.

The formal attack will have to wait until Gu Hang completely eliminates the subspace shadow.

Gu Hang himself returned to his kingdom of God.

Just as he thought, the shadow of the subspace had become noticeably lighter.
