Xia Fan carefully examined his work, the magically modified Scourge.
His brain was racing, thinking about how to get out of the cosmic storm smoothly, and how to deal with the enemy's ambush outside the storm.
Fu You put his hand on Xia Fan's shoulder and said seriously, "Let's go. Some things can't be figured out by imagination. You can only adapt to the situation. Anyway, no matter what you choose, I will support you."
Xia Fan was very touched. He and Fo You had been partners for a long time, and their friendship had quickly warmed up. Although Little Master had inherent flaws in his character, there was one thing that Xia Fan liked very much, and that was trust.
As partners, there was nothing more important than trust. Fu You could put his fate in Xia Fan's hands, and so could Xia Fan. This was the kind of legendary friendship that went through life and death together.
"Okay, let's go."
The two boarded the warship, and Xia Fan steered Scourge away from the God-level Dock No. 3 and into space. He looked at the battleship graveyard for the last time in space.
This time, he had accidentally entered the core of the storm and gained a lot. At least, Xia Fan understood two things. First, the baby with the same name as him that Tianyi was looking for was probably him.
Second, the body of Xia Chen, a member of his family, was stolen by the Godslayer Society. They must be hiding an unspeakable secret. From now on, he had to do everything he could to investigate the Godslayer Society.
Xia Fan slowly pushed the acceleration handle, and Scourge became faster and faster. It flew around the enclosed space about the size of three standard galaxies.
As it sped up, the harmonic vibration became very serious, and the hull was abnormally bumpy.
After all, Scourge was now equipped with a power system that far exceeded his design standards, and it was inevitable that it would cause a lot of vibration.
However, Scourge was an elite frigate, and its structure was made of expensive Kro alloy. The turbulence would affect the passengers, but it would not cause the hull to lose control.
"Are you ready?" Xia Fan asked Fu You.
Fu You grabbed the stabilizing handrail in the command cabin with both hands and nodded gently. "Don't worry, I'm ready."
Xia Fan didn't say anything more. His face, which was always smiling, was rarely serious. Then, he manually steered Scourge closer to the inner wall of the storm.
The rotating thrust produced by the storm began to take effect, and Scourge became extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it reached almost the same speed as the rotation of the storm.
At this time, Xia Fan began to turn the steering wheel. As he circled, he rushed toward the wall of wind.
Just like when they entered the storm, the loud noise in the cockpit was deafening, and the vibration was getting more and more intense. However, Xia Fan's hands were still steady and his eyes were focused.
Thrusting in from a perfect angle, Calamity's two 14MN engines went into overdrive. At this moment, Calamity suddenly changed its angle of rotation and began to break through the wind wall!
It was as if the battleship had crashed into an invisible wall. The energy shield was quickly depleting, and the rear ejector emitted a terrifying blue light.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
Words could not describe the thrilling feeling when Calamity broke through the wind wall. It was a war without smoke!
The difference from the past was that the hull was still the same sharp triangular wing, but Calamity had been magically modified to have even more insane performance!
This was especially true for the energy shield, which was a battleship level energy shield generator. It spat out a huge amount of energy, forming an invisible protective membrane around the hull. Xia Fan noticed that the impact of the wind on the shield had slowed down significantly.
He remembered that when they first arrived, the wind wall only took 3.8 seconds to completely disintegrate the shield and begin to break through the armor.
But this time, when the time reached four seconds, the protective shield still had 62% of its energy left.
Every second felt as long as a century. Xia Fan and Fo You stared ahead, gritting their teeth and holding on.
Finally, after 9.75 seconds, Calamity broke away from the core of the wind wall. The data showed that the impact of the storm on the hull began to weaken, and the energy shield had less than 4% left. The armor began to turn red, but it did not burn or fall off like the first time.
They had succeeded. The magical modification gave Calamity great power. This small frigate that was only 92 meters in length had the ability to pass through space storms!
Fo You felt that losing the cabin, the kitchen, and only being able to eat nutrient supplies was a price worth it!
After all, after the magically modified Calamity, it was protecting his and Xia Fan's lives!
* Pa! *
Seeing that Calamity was breaking away from the storm, and the energy shield began to slowly recover, Xia Fan immediately turned on the radar array.
The magically modified radar was no longer a single system. Instead, it was an array of distributed detectors composed of several radars, providing high-power radar output to the surroundings.
Modifying the radar took up a lot of space on Calamity, but it was worth it.
For a battleship, the radar was like an eye.
Last time, Xia Fan had suffered because the radar system's power was not high enough. Due to the interference of the storm, when Xia Fan discovered the Godslayer Society's seventeenth fleet approaching, the enemy was already right in front of him. There was nowhere for him to run.
If the radar system was powerful enough, they could have discovered the enemy in advance, and then run away with Calamity's speed. They would not have to take such a big risk by diving into the center of the storm.
Therefore, Xia Fan dismantled the kitchen and dining hall to install six high-power radars. The six radars corresponded to the front, back, left, right, up, down, and in six different directions.
Swoosh!
Calamity finally emerged from the storm. The hull was red because of the burning, but its performance was still excellent.
This was the most critical moment. Xia Fan did not hesitate to activate the overload and rushed into space at maximum speed. Once the wormhole warp system was ready, Xia Fan would immediately start warp and escape this dangerous place.
However, the display of the radar array made Xia Fan slightly startled.
The Godslayer Society's main fleet seemed to have left. There were only three signals in the radar range. A cruiser, a destroyer, and a frigate formed a capture team. Only they were waiting for Xia Fan.
The Godslayer Society!
Xia Fan's chest was filled with anger. These guys stole Xia Chen's body and almost caused him to lose his life. If there was a chance, shouldn't he teach them a lesson?
The two small battleships also discovered Calamity. They activated the acceleration from a distance and approached Xia Fan. As for the cruiser, it was slower, but it was also trying hard to catch up.
* Swoosh! *
Xia Fan quickly pulled down the propulsion lever and shook the rudder at the same time.
As a result, from a distance, Calamity looked like a drunkard, swaying as it ran. At the same time, the blue flames ejected from its tail weakened, as if it had rushed out of the storm, causing its power to decrease.
The two small interceptor battleships noticed this and became excited. They also began to overload the power system to catch up with Xia Fan at a faster speed.
Fo You guessed what Xia Fan was thinking, but he didn't say anything because he didn't want to interfere with Xia Fan's decision.
On any warship, the captain had absolute authority. Whether it was to escape or fight, it was all up to the captain. As a captain, the most terrible thing was hesitation.
A cunning trap was slowly forming.
With the support of the cruiser, the two small ships chased after Calamity. Xia Fan kept Calamity at a clever speed so that the enemy's small battleships could catch up while maintaining a fixed distance from the cruiser.
Gradually, an interceptor destroyer and a high-speed interceptor frigate approached Xia Fan. The interceptor quickly moved closer to Calamity, while the interceptor activated the warp disruption field.
Within the range of the warp disruption field, no warship could leave through the artificial wormhole, not only Calamity, but also the two ships of the Godslayer Society. The disruption field was like a double-edged sword. Once the field was activated, no one could escape.
The moment the disruption field was activated, Xia Fan suddenly turned the rudder in the opposite direction and pushed the acceleration lever to the end.
* Boom! *
The engine roared, and the fire control system began to quickly lock on to the two enemy ships.
Almost at the same time, the enemy locked on to Xia Fan, and Xia Fan locked on to the enemy.
Calamity turned violently and aimed at the interceptor that was rushing toward it. The six main cannons ejected dazzling fire, while the interceptor relied on its small size and fast speed to draw an arc.
* Swoosh! *
Two intertwining light beams hit the interceptor. The captain of the ship was probably in despair at this moment. The interceptor was a very special type of warship. It didn't have strong armor, and its defense relied on agility and speed.
Now that it was caught by two intertwining light beams, its speed began to decline rapidly. To make matters worse, it was still within the range of the warp disruption field and couldn't start the warp. As a result, it was pinned down by Xia Fan.
At this time, the interceptor and the interceptor also released intertwining light beams, hitting the hull of Calamity. The enemy was also trying to pin down Calamity.
In fact, the Godslayer Society had left four warships around the storm. When the battle began, the reconnaissance ship that had been in stealth suddenly appeared on Xia Fan's left.
This reconnaissance ship was specially designed for stealth capture. It had two sets of intertwining light beams, so Calamity was pinned down by four intertwining light beams and couldn't move at all.
The situation became very dangerous. The three enemy ships that were responsible for capturing began to surround Calamity. In the distance, there was a main battlecruiser with fierce firepower.
The Godslayer Society was very smart. Although the four ships were not many, they were very targeted. Only one of them was responsible for firepower, and the other three ships were responsible for capturing. They felt that once Calamity was pinned down, the result would be obvious.
Unfortunately, they were very wrong.
With Calamity's performance, if Xia Fan wanted to escape, he would have fled so far that not even his shadow could be seen. He did this on purpose!
* Boom! *
The six cannons roared. Calamity withstood the firepower of the three ships and began to counterattack.
Xia Fan's strategy was actually very simple. It was to fight!
After being magically modified, Calamity had a battleship level energy shield, which could completely withstand the enemy's attacks. Xia Fan stopped the ship in space and let them fight!
A strange scene appeared in space. The three warships surrounded Calamity, but they couldn't break through its defense. The energy shield blocked all the enemy's firepower without exception.
And the three enemy ships couldn't stop Calamity's firepower.
The interceptor that was pinned down by the two intertwining light beams, after being hit by the continuous cannons, burst into flames at the rear of the warship. In the blink of an eye, it became a dazzling firework in the dark space. It was completely destroyed.
Turning around, Calamity pinned down the reconnaissance ship again. Again, the two intertwining light beams were activated at the same time. Then, it began to bombard the enemy!
At this time, Calamity had entered the range of the main battlecruiser. The battlecruiser began to use long-range howitzers to bombard Calamity.
But Xia Fan didn't care about being attacked at all. He continued to pour his firepower on the reconnaissance ship.
In any case, when the battlecruiser attacked Xia Fan, Xia Fan attacked the reconnaissance ship. When the interceptor attacked Xia Fan, Xia Fan still attacked the reconnaissance ship!
This was a bit like a street fight. Take the enemy's attack and kill the enemy you caught first.
* Boom! *
When the second firework was ignited, the battlecruiser and the interceptor both understood that they were in big trouble this time.
It wasn't without reason that Calamity was able to enter the storm and rush out of the storm.
Calamity's defense was too strong. They had been fighting for a long time, and Calamity still had half of its energy shield left. But two of their warships had already been sunk by Calamity.
Now, Calamity had locked on to the last warship to capture them. The battlecruiser started to rush at full speed, but Calamity continued to fire at the interceptor while resisting the enemy's attacks.
About ten seconds later, the third firework exploded in space. The commander on the battlecruiser watched helplessly as Xia Fan killed his companions one by one. There was nothing he could do.
The three warships responsible for capturing were all destroyed by Xia Fan. If Xia Fan wanted to leave, he could leave at any time. The battlecruiser was far away, and there was nothing they could do.
However, at this moment, another shocking scene appeared in space.
