There was no doubt that his strategy was correct. Instead of passively taking a beating, it was better to take the initiative to attack. Offense was the best defense.
The battle just now had proved this point.
However, there were always some accidents that would happen inadvertently. Lu Ye did not expect that after the enemy ship's protection was destroyed, the enemy crew would escape, which in turn increased the power of the remaining two ships.
He had to find a way to solve this problem, otherwise, it would be difficult to achieve success in one fell swoop.
Relying solely on Qin Zong and Xiao Jianming to control the Offensive Array was useless. The Offensive Array controlled by Qin Zong was not used to deal with a single cultivator. Because the frequency of the Offensive Array was not high, he could only activate the Offensive Array twice in the short period of time when the enemy's crew was fleeing in all directions. Although the situation on Xiao Jianming's side was better, it was still limited.
Therefore, what he needed now was more intensive attacks!
Lu Ye immediately used his Divine Sense to send a message to Haitang, instructing her in detail.
Although from the current situation, the crew of the Long Dragon Warship would strictly follow his orders, Lu Ye still did not dare to trust them too much, so he could only leave this key assistance to Haitang.
He did not have many opportunities. If he could not achieve the expected results in the next three battles, he was afraid he would really follow in Haitang's footsteps and be inseparable from the Long Dragon Warship forever.
This was not the situation he wanted to see.
After checking the situation of the Long Dragon Warship again, Lu Ye's gaze pierced through the void and looked ahead, waiting for the enemy ships to arrive.
A moment later, three warships came into view.
Just like last time, the Long Dragon Warship, under the control of Lu Ye, flew towards the enemy ships, and as the distance closed, the two sides attacked and shuttled back and forth.
They still paid the price of reducing the strength of their own protection array by half, and the enemy ship locked onto by the Long Dragon Warship was in imminent danger.
At this moment, Lu Ye's Divine Sense surged and he shouted, "Senior Apprentice Sister Haitang!"
On the deck, Haitang, who was cooperating with the other crew members to activate the protection array, rushed out almost as soon as Lu Ye's voice sounded and rushed to the side of the deck.
In that position, there was an attack array that had not yet been activated!
In fact, there were several similar attack arrays on the Long Dragon Warship, but they had not been activated because of the lack of manpower.
Every spirit design had different characteristics and uses. The spirit design that Haitang was rushing towards this time was one that had a high attack frequency but was not very powerful.
Of course, its power was only relatively speaking. The power of this formation was not very effective against battleships, but it was most suitable against cultivators.
It could be said that this formation was specifically designed to deal with cultivators.
As soon as Haitang got into position and activated the formation with her spirit power, the Long Dragon Battleship swung its tail in front of the enemy's ship.
At the same time, a powerful attack from Qin Zong's side struck the enemy ship.
The protective light curtain was completely broken, and at this moment, a series of shapeless black shadows rushed out from the enemy ship.
It was also at this moment that Haitang activated the power of the formation she controlled.
Balls of light suddenly flew out from the formation and spread out.
Many of the black shadows that escaped from the enemy ship were caught off guard and several of them hit the balls of light. In an instant, the balls of light bloomed with lightning and wrapped the black shadows.
It could be vaguely seen that the black shadows were wriggling violently, as if they were struggling, but they were unable to break free from the confinement of the balls of lightning and slowly disappeared.
More balls of light flew out like fireflies, and under Haitang's control, they strangled the enemy's crew.
Lu Ye's mind had been paying attention to the movements here, and seeing that the effect was good, he was relieved.
The Long Dragon Battleship shook incessantly. While Haitang was controlling the formation, the remaining two enemy battleships were not idle and had been attacking this side. In order to better assist Haitang in killing the enemy's crew, Lu Ye did not dare to make large movements.
As a result, the Long Dragon Battleship suffered several fierce attacks from the enemy, and the price was that the strength of the protective light curtain was weakened by another ten percent!
Not daring to continue, the Long Dragon Battleship moved again, trying to avoid the enemy's attacks.
The three offensive formations on their side were still pouring out power. Qin Zong and Xiao Jianming had always been the main force against the enemy's ships. Seeing that the three surviving enemy's crew members had been rescued and there was no possibility of killing them, Haitang returned to her original position and joined the sequence of maintaining the protective formation.
One of the enemy's ships had been destroyed, and even the crew on the enemy's ship had been almost wiped out. The Long Dragon Battleship now only needed to face the entanglement of two enemy ships.
Compared to just now, the situation was undoubtedly much better.
The only disadvantage was that the strength of the protective formation had decreased too much, and it was only about forty percent of its peak.
It was undoubtedly difficult to rely on such a strength to fight against the remaining two battleships.
Lu Ye was even more focused on controlling the battleship, and from time to time, he would make exquisite cooperation with Qin Zong and Xiao Jianming.
A moment later, when the strength of the protective formation on their side was reduced to the last ten percent, the defense of the second enemy ship was about to collapse.
With the previous experience, Haitang did not wait for Lu Ye's orders this time and acted. She quickly arrived at the position and activated the power of the formation.
The next moment, the formation of the second enemy ship was broken, and the same scene as before appeared in front of them. The crew of the enemy ship escaped again and ran toward the last remaining battleship.
Haitang activated the power of the formation to intercept and kill, and Lu Ye did his best to cooperate with her.
However, before Haitang could achieve much, the Long Dragon Battleship shook with a loud bang, and its defense was broken!
The last scene that appeared in Lu Ye's vision was a bright pillar of light erupting from the enemy ship!
It was a failure!
In the nineteenth reincarnation, Lu Ye stood in front of the control center ball, frowning.
In the previous reincarnation, they had undoubtedly done their best. Regardless of whether it was him, Qin Sect's Xiao Jianming, 9, or Haitang, they had all performed quite well. They had fought one against three and destroyed two enemy warships. This kind of result could be said to be astonishing. However, they still failed at the final juncture.
There was no problem with their cooperation, so the only problem was that there were too many enemies.
How could they improve it?
They could not divide their manpower to control more offensive formations. If that was the case, the strength of the defensive formation would be correspondingly weakened, and the gains would not make up for the losses.
If Lu Ye was given enough opportunity to cooperate with his crew, Lu Ye believed that they would definitely win.
But now, what he lacked was opportunity.
Including this time, he only had two chances. It could be said that he already had one foot on the edge of the cliff.
After thinking about it, Lu Ye could not think of any good ideas, but this did not prevent him from ordering his crew again to do their jobs.
Haitang's voice sounded in his ear, "Junior Brother, you did very well. This time, I will do my best!"
This was not relief, but admiration.
Because in those reincarnations when she was the captain, she had always been the passive party. Not to mention destroying two enemy battleships, she had not even destroyed a single one.
This made her wonder if anyone had really passed the test on this ghost ship.
But now she knew that someone had definitely passed such a test. She could not do it, but that was because she was not capable enough, but it did not mean that others would be the same!
She had fallen into the ghost ship and could not get out. It would not be long before she really died. At that time, she would no longer appear on this ghost ship.
She had suffered a loss, and she did not want others to follow in her footsteps, even if they were just strangers.
That was why she reminded Lu Ye during his first reincarnation. Later, when Lu Ye came to find her, she did not hold back and shared her information.
"Senior Sister did a good job. It's my problem," Lu Ye replied.
The success or failure of a battle between battleships was the person controlling the battleship. After all, the crew still obeyed his orders.
But how could he solve the problem of the defensive formation's power at the last moment? Lu Ye could not think of any ideas for a while, unless he could better control the battleship to avoid the enemy's attacks.
Even if he had some talent in this regard, and was familiar with the control of the battleship after reincarnation, the time was still short. Right now, he had reached his limit and could not improve any more.
"Enemy attack!"
The familiar shout came again, and Lu Ye quickly calmed his mind and focused on controlling the battleship.
Although he knew that if he did not solve the problem at the last moment, the situation would not improve no matter how many reincarnations he went through, he did not have much time to think at this time.
The enemy's battleship was attacking, and he must devote himself to controlling the battleship. Even if he wanted to use his clone to control another attack formation, he could not.
Most of the time, he could multitask, even when fighting some strong enemies, but when controlling the battleship, he really could not do it.
When controlling the battleship, his whole mind was immersed in the battleship, and he could not effectively control his clone at all.
Not long after, a fierce battle broke out.
The situation was the same as last time. When the strength of their defensive formation was left with half, an enemy battleship was blown up. Haitang quickly changed the formation and killed the crew of the enemy battleship. After dealing with this matter, she returned to the defensive formation.
Another fierce battle ensued, and when the defensive strength of their battleship was only left with the last 10% and was on the verge of collapse, the enemy's second battleship was blown up.
Haitang changed her position again.
If this continued, the situation would be the same as last time, without any changes, and Lu Ye would inevitably enter the 20th reincarnation!
At this critical moment, Lu Ye's heart suddenly moved, and he realized that he had misunderstood.
Why did he have to kill the crew of the second enemy battleship?
The crew of the first enemy battleship must be killed because once they were received and entered the remaining two enemy battleships, the performance of the enemy battleships would be greatly improved.
But the crew of the second enemy battleship did not seem to be necessary to kill them all?
