Scourge turned around aggressively and charged at the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser.
Suddenly, the crew and commanders on the cruiser all thought that Xia Fan must have gone crazy.
It should be noted that the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser was 1,432 meters long, far larger than Scourge, which was only 92 meters long.
Larger size meant more power, more advanced weapons, and radar systems. Using a cruiser to fight a frigate was a one-dimensional attack. Under normal circumstances, a cruiser could easily destroy three destroyers that were more advanced than Scourge.
However, things were always unexpected. After getting rid of the interference of the three capture ships, Scourge showed amazing speed. Dazzling blue flames shot out from its tail. Once Scourge moved at full speed, it would even tremble because of the speed.
* Swoosh *
After entering range, the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser fired the Stasis Entanglement Beam.
The power of the cruiser's Stasis Beam was very high. Under normal circumstances, it could slow down a frigate by ninety percent. In other words, if a frigate's original speed was one hundred, after being entangled by the Stasis Beam, its speed would immediately drop to ten.
However, even though Scourge was locked by the Stasis Beam, it was still astonishingly fast. Its engine seemed to be able to provide endless power, circling the cruiser at a crazy speed.
The two warships, one big and one small, opened fire at each other at the same time!
A few seconds later, a strange scene began to unfold in space. Scourge, which was obviously weaker, was able to completely suppress an enemy many times stronger than itself. The Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser's energy shield began to drop rapidly, and the first layer of defense was about to be broken!
What was going on?
The reason was the difference in hit rate!
This was like hunting. Shooting a bear with a rifle, hitting the target was easy, but to hit a sparrow flying at high speed in the air, some luck was needed.
Scourge was now the sparrow that was difficult to hit. Although it was locked by the Stasis Beam, because of its two main cores and up to 14MN engine, Scourge was still very fast, faster than a high-speed interceptor frigate.
Such a small target, such a fast speed, the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser's shells only had a hit rate of ten percent, and most of the shells were off target.
However, not only was Calamity fast, but it was also equipped with a battle-grade protective shield, so this kind of firepower did not pose much of a threat to it.
On the other hand, although Calamity's firepower was not as good as the enemy's, it could hit its target 100% of the time. After two sets of Stasis Entanglement Beams locked onto the enemy, the speed of the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser was reduced to almost zero, and it was pinned down. Then, six medium rapid-fire grenade cannons fired crazily at close range!
Xia Fan wanted to torture his enemy to death!
Although Calamity's firepower was not designed to deal with cruisers, as long as it dragged on long enough, it could destroy an enemy ship that was more than ten times its size!
As the minutes ticked by, the crew of the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser began to feel endless despair.
This damned ship was too terrifying!
It possessed unparalleled speed, battleship level defense, and repellent level firepower. It was using torturous methods to destroy itself bit by bit.
The energy shield was completely broken, and Calamity was destroying the cruiser's armor!
Once the armor was destroyed, it would only be left with its life-saving structural layer!
On the other hand, because of Calamity's speed and strong defense, the enemy's hit rate was not high. Its energy shield was always maintained at 20%, and although it was still dangerous, it was enough to withstand the cruiser's attack.
* Boom! *
Almost at the same time, Calamity and the enemy entered a state of overloading.
Once overloading began, the lifespan of the ship's equipment would rapidly shorten, and it was very likely that the equipment would be destroyed before the battle was over.
Both sides were gambling with their lives!
After overloading, the cruiser's hit rate began to increase, Calamity's energy shield rapidly weakened, and Calamity's attacks on the enemy became even more ruthless!
* Boom! *
Finally, when Calamity's armor had been destroyed by more than 70%, the Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser, its last life-saving structural layer, was breached.
A section of the cabin was pierced through, and the torn hull was revealed. The crew that was originally in the cabin was instantly sucked into space.
Now was the time!
Calamity took the opportunity to fire continuously, specifically targeting the place that had been pierced through.
Without the protection of the armor and structural layer, the shells went straight into the interior of the cruiser, destroying one wall after another and causing a violent explosion, destroying the enemy from the inside!
Fourth kill!
Complete victory!
The Saber-toothed Tiger-class cruiser, which was many times larger than Calamity, also became a firework in the dark space. The explosion occurred from the inside, tearing the hull apart and throwing the crew into space. Many damaged fragments shot around like bullets!
"We did it! We won! "Fo You raised his arms and shouted wildly.
With a frigate, he had killed four ships in a row. This was a textbook victory!
Xia Fan sat in the captain's seat. From beginning to end, he had used his hands to control Calamity without using the intelligent combat assistance system.
Because Xia Fan was a speed type, the efficiency of the assistance system might not be faster than Xia Fan using his hands. Moreover, if the battle was too intense, the assistance system might make a wrong judgment.
Controlling the entire ship with both hands was also a unique ability of the speed type, and no one else could do it.
"When you decided to rush towards the cruiser, I really broke out in a cold sweat. After all, that guy is much bigger than us, and its firepower is extremely powerful." As Fo You spoke, he sat in the open space of the command cabin and unfolded his beloved tea set. He really needed a cup of tea to calm his nervous mood.
Xia Fan sat opposite Fo You and said with a smile, "The key lies in the two cores. The mechanical core ensures operating efficiency and reduces loss, while the energy core provides continuous power. Without these two cores, I would have run away long ago. I wouldn't have taken such a risk."
"The cores are really good stuff. If all four cores are in hand, even if there are twice as many enemies, we can still fight."
Fo You laughed happily. "Come on, have a cup. I'm so anxious that my throat is smoking."
So, the two of them drank tea in the command cabin, enjoying the glory that belonged to the winner.
The three major alliances hated the Godslayer Society. Whether it was killing members of the Godslayer Society or destroying their ships, there would be huge rewards.
The automatic video recording system on Scourge had already recorded the entire battle process. After returning to the alliance, Xia Fan would receive a handsome reward. He planned to use the money to buy a new ship.
Although Scourge was good, the modification this time was done in a hurry. It was done on the spot, and its interior was a mess because of Xia Fan.
Moreover, this battle also revealed the weakness of Calamity's small size, which made it impossible to install more powerful weapons. To be able to install a battleship's energy shield, Fu You and Xia Fan had to sleep on the floor.
After drinking two cups of tea, the alarm system suddenly sounded again.
Xia Fan hurriedly ran to the control panel and pushed the acceleration lever to 80%. He then looked at the radar array and found a large number of warp signals not far from him.
Warships relied on artificial wormholes to warp. When a wormhole opened, space would be torn apart.
A fleet was coming through the wormhole. There were 128 wormholes, which meant that the other party was a large fleet composed of 128 warships!
Xia Fan steered Scourge away from the wormhole and prepared to warp away at any time. However, before he left, he wanted to see whose fleet it was.
If this fleet belonged to the Godslayer Society, the radar system would record the model and various data of the warships. This would be of great help to the alliance in dealing with the Godslayer Society in the future.
Xia Fan's hand pressed on the warp generator, feeling a little nervous.
Ripples appeared in the dark outer space, and white light waves appeared in the universe. Then, they rapidly expanded.
Then, one warship after another emerged from the wormhole and arrived at the outer edge of the cosmic storm.
"It's our warship!" Xia Fan saw the identification code on the radar system and shouted excitedly.
While the regular army was sailing, they would send out identification codes in all directions to prevent misjudgments.
The pirates and the Godslayer Society's fleet would not do this because their identities could not be seen. It would be bad if they were known.
.....
The fleet that Xia Fan encountered was called the Nebula Alliance's Extraterrestrial Special Task Force, Third Fleet.
Not long after, Xia Fan and Fo You were invited to the flagship of the fleet, Sea Star.
Sea Star was a small dreadnought battleship that was twelve kilometers long. Scourge easily docked in the landing cabin of this dreadnought.
In Cangyue, there were two types of capital ships. One was the mothership that carried unmanned fighter jets, and the other was the dreadnought battleship that carried giant cannons.
Sea Star belonged to the latter. It had two main cannons of large caliber. It only needed three volleys to destroy a cruiser. A battleship would need about twelve volleys.
In short, the mothership was an all-rounder. It could fight and support the entire fleet. On the other hand, the dreadnought battleship was a classic battleship killer that only existed to destroy enemy ships.
When Fo You and Xia Fan walked out of Scourge, their eyes suddenly lit up.
Standing below Scourge was a person in a special military uniform. It was their old friend from the Blue Boiling Point, Spirit Bird!
"Little Bird! Why are you here?! "
"Long time no see. Why are you in the Extraterrestrial?!" Fo You and Xia Fan said in surprise. The three of them hugged each other passionately.
Spirit Bird was still as handsome as ever. His strange long green hair was now cut short, and he looked more spirited.
"Are you looking down on me?" Spirit Bird pointed at his shoulder and said, "It's been a month and a half since the two of you graduated. I, your brother, have also accumulated enough points to graduate."
"I'm now an adjutant in the Third Fleet."
Xia Fan held Spirit Bird's shoulder and said, "So you didn't join the Special Task Force?"
Spirit Bird explained, "The Extraterrestrial Special Task Force is a rather special organization. It was formed by the Special Task Force, the Security Bureau, the Intelligence Bureau, and the military. There are people from everywhere. I'm now in the Special Task Force, and I might be transferred back to the bureau in the future. Who knows? Let's see what the higher-ups have to say."
Fo You did not think much of it. "I'm afraid it was your family who arranged for me to be here?"
Spirit Bird nodded. "Yes, it was arranged by my family. The Special Task Force is relatively peaceful at the moment. My family said that the Special Task Force is in the Extraterrestrial and has many missions. They often fight with the people from the God Slaying Society, so it's easier to accumulate battle merits here. My family hopes that I can go to the headquarters after I've gained some experience."
"I can't help it. I have no choice. In a family like ours, the elders have the final say. I'll do whatever they want."
Fo You deeply agreed. He and his brother were the family's sacrifices. Now that his brother had run away from home, he had always been rebellious. In the end, his grandfather and father let him go, and Fo You finally had some freedom.
