After adjusting their formation, the "player fleet" plunged into the minefield.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The Gravitational Air Mines were activated continuously, rushing toward the "player warships" and exploding.
"That's awesome!" A "player" piloting a Doom spaceship shouted excitedly. As he was piloting a heavy-duty cruiser, it had an extremely powerful shield. So, one or two Gravitational Air Mines were not enough to cause too much damage to him. Although the shield's value was greatly reduced, the Shengxiang spaceships following behind were not doing nothing. They were constantly replenishing the shield's energy for the Doom spaceships that were acting as meat shields.
Just like that, the 'player fleet' charged through the minefield amidst the rumbling explosions. Although two more frigates were accidentally destroyed by the Gravity Air Mines along the way, the other 'player' warships managed to pass through the minefield without a hitch.
"Damn it! We've been delayed for so long. Did those NPCs run away? "The commander asked.
"No! Boss, their acceleration engine seems to have used up a lot of energy. Now, they are slowing down. In about an hour, we will be able to get them back into our firing range! "A" player "shouted excitedly.
"Then what are you waiting for? Chase them! " As the commander gave the order, the entire "player fleet" chased after Spot's fleet as if they were on steroids.
"Captain, they are catching up!" A young captain shouted through the comms.
"Yes! Got it! " Spot nodded and then said to the other captains, "021 and 022, leave the fleet. Retreat to Z4!"
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
After the two captains received the order, they immediately separated from the fleet. They were the first candidates to split up. If they could attract a small fleet, then they would lure them into the encirclement. If there were too many enemies chasing them, then they would have to find a way to shake off the enemies or hope for the best.
Soon, the two Grizzly Bears left the fleet. They slightly reduced their speed and flew in another direction.
…
"Commander, there are two warships ahead that left the fleet!"
"And their speed seems to be slower than the other warships."
"Hmph! Their engines must have been damaged by the bombardment just now. Now they can't run fast! "
"Boss, what should we do? They've split up. Which one should we chase? "
"Hmm …" The Guild Leader hesitated for a moment before mumbling to himself, "Abandon a pawn to save a chariot? Forget it, let's ignore them and continue to pursue the enemy's main force! "
In the end, the commander wasn't fooled. He completely ignored the two Grey Bears that were decelerating and continued to chase after Spot's fleet.
"Boss, it's not good. That good-for-nothing led his team to chase after those two spaceships!" Just then, a "player" suddenly shouted.
"Ah?" The leader was slightly stunned. Then, he connected the communication with the good-for-nothing. "What's wrong with you, kid? Can't you listen to orders?"
"Guild Leader, you're wrong. We all follow you, but you're being too biased. Take that warship for example. The ones that destroyed it were your direct subordinates. We didn't get any experience points. Now, these two ships are already damaged and can't run fast. You don't want us to chase after them. Are you trying to leave them to your people?" The "player" called "good-for-nothing" said in a strange tone.
"You …" The Guild Leader was speechless. He had split from the main fleet because of the uneven distribution of loot. He didn't expect Layue to repay her debt so quickly. It had only been a while, and now his little brother was playing this trick on him.
"Guild Leader, I won't fight with you. I don't want the experience points and money of the main fleet. Can you let me have these two ships?" Although the good-for-nothing was asking for the Guild Leader's opinion, he and his team didn't slow down at all. They chased after the two Grey Bears and quickly left their fleet.
"Bastard!" The Guild Leader scolded angrily, but there was nothing he could do. After all, they were just a group of "players" and not a real army. It was impossible for them to follow orders strictly. So, if his little brother didn't listen to him, there was nothing he could do.
Soon, the cowardly team chased after 021 and 022 Grizzly Bears. Meanwhile, the commander led his main fleet and chased after Spot's fleet.
"Brother, should we bring the ships behind us into the encirclement?" asked the captain of 021.
"There are nine ships in total, and two of them are heavy patrol ships. If we bring them back, I'm afraid they won't even be enough to fill the gaps between our teeth," said the captain of 022.
"Then, what do you plan to do?" The captain of 021's eyes lit up.
"Running away is not my style!" The captain of 022 laughed.
"What should we do? They have a supply ship behind them. We can't fight them head-on, "said the captain of 021.
"Of course we can't fight them head-on. Look at the star map. There's an asteroid belt 45 light-seconds ahead. That's the perfect place for an ambush!" said the captain of 022.
"Okay! What should we do? "asked the captain of 021.
"Do you remember the C5 strategy we used when we were in school?" said the captain of 022.
"Of course! Didn't we get first place in the whole year? "said the captain of 021 proudly.
"Let's do that!" said the captain of 022.
"Okay!" The captain of 021 nodded. The two gray bears immediately flew towards the asteroid belt.
…
"Second brother, the two broken ships are flying towards the asteroid belt." At the same time, the good-for-nothing's fleet also noticed the two gray bears' movements.
"Hehe, they want to use the asteroid belt to escape us? Not a chance! Chase after them! " The good-for-nothing was not a disgrace to his name. He had no military knowledge at all. When he saw the enemies escaping into the asteroid belt, he did not make any preparations at all. He just foolishly chased after them.
About 20 minutes later, the two gray bears entered the asteroid belt. Because of the asteroids, their battleships' signals also disappeared from the good-for-nothing's radar screen.
"Second brother, we can't find them! What do we do? "asked one of the lackeys.
"Don't worry. This asteroid belt is not big. They can't hide at all. Search!" ordered the good-for-nothing.
Soon, the nine "player battleships" also entered the asteroid belt without any preparation. As the battle had been too smooth, these "players" did not take the two gray bears seriously at all. They did not even think that they would be stopped here.
Boom! Following a loud explosion, a gravitational mine exploded. The good-for-nothing's ship was damaged.
"Damn! That scared me. Third brother, hurry up and replenish my shield! "The good-for-nothing immediately ordered the only Holy Elephant spaceship under his command to replenish himself.
