Chapter 233 UED's Departure

"Marshal, the main reactor is overloaded, and the warp drive has been subjected to excessive energy impact and can no longer be activated." The voice coming through the communicator was tinged with anxiety and helplessness.

However, Gerald, sitting in the command chair, remained unusually calm, staring expressionlessly at the control panel in front of him; all of this was exactly what he had expected.

"Overload the secondary reactor, use all energy to power the Dragonbone Heavy Cannon." His voice was deep and firm, without the slightest hesitation.

With his order given, the crew of the Olympus sprang into action.

The power of the secondary reactor was continuously increased, and energy was poured into the keel heavy artillery like a surging torrent.

"Cut into the course of the enemy's largest warship and execute the ramming order!" Gerald's command echoed like thunder across the bridge.

The Olympus slowly turned, its bow pointing directly at the massive Emperor-class battleship.

Meanwhile, the Emperor-class battleship also noticed the Olympus's intentions and turned its bow toward the Olympus as if in response to the challenge.

The two giant ships thus traveled towards each other in space, getting closer and closer to one another.

The Emperor-class battleship's bow disintegration field has been activated, ready to tear apart any enemy attempting to block its advance, while the Olympus's keel guns are constantly charging, poised to fire.

As the two warships drew closer, and the numbers approached his expected values, Gerald immediately issued a new order: "Reduce the output of main engines seven through twelve! Activate all auxiliary engines!"

The Olympus's engine power was instantly adjusted, with the main engine output reduced while the auxiliary engines started at full power, providing the warship with additional power and maneuverability.

Gerald's eyes were fixed on the Emperor-class battleship's turning rockets, as if drawn by a magnet.

He was well aware that using such a rocket in the atmosphere would have serious consequences—heat would concentrate inside the rocket and would not be able to dissipate effectively.

He was taking a risky gamble, betting that the opponent's steering rockets had overheated due to overuse.

After all, such a massive warship's maneuverability in the atmosphere is by no means outstanding.

Gerald wasn't foolish enough to use his keel cannons to bombard the enemy's bow, which was clearly a ram, because he knew that doing so would be tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock.

Instead, he planned to cleverly utilize the Olympus's smaller hull and superior maneuverability, drifting swiftly to the enemy's side like a nimble fish.

Then, he will mercilessly deliver a heavy blow to his opponent, making them deeply feel the power of UED and that it is definitely not an opponent to be easily provoked.

As expected, things unfolded exactly as Gerrard had anticipated.

The enemy's Emperor-class battleships were only turning at a relatively slow speed, which gave Gerald an excellent opportunity.

The distance between the two ships was only a few hundred meters! For a massive warship, this was practically placing its cannons directly on the other's forehead!

However, when the captain of the Imperial-class battleship discovered that he could not tear the enemy apart with the disintegration field at the bow, he was not angry at all.

Because he knew that the rows of large cannons on the sides of this warship also possessed great power, enough to shatter the enemy into a pile of fragments.

In that instant, Gerald experienced firsthand the astonishing broadside firepower of the Imperial warships.

The shields that the Olympus had just activated were quickly depleted of energy within a dozen seconds, as if swallowed by an invisible behemoth.

"Fire!" Seeing that the Olympus was already teetering on the brink of collapse under the enemy's fierce close-range bombardment and could not hold out for much longer, Gerald gave the order without hesitation.

The keel-bone cannons, which had been poised to fire, roared like a sleeping beast awakened, and a crimson beam of light shot straight toward the Emperor-class battleship like a lightning bolt that ripped through the void.

However, this powerful beam of light encountered fierce resistance from the Void Shield halfway through its journey.

The Void Shield shone brightly under the impact of the beam of light, as if demonstrating its indestructible defensive power to the world.

Meanwhile, the broadside guns of the Emperor-class battleships did not stop firing, raining down shells on the Olympus.

Each explosion was like a heavy blow to the warship, causing its hull to shake violently as if it might disintegrate at any moment.

However, at this critical moment, something unexpected happened.

For some unknown reason, the Emperor-class battleship's Void Shield suddenly lost its ability to block the Olympus's bombardment.

This change came so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard.

The crimson beam of light, which had been firmly blocked by the Void Shield, now struck the side armor of the Emperor-class battleship like a wild horse, without any hindrance.

In an instant, the side armor of the Emperor-class battleship turned into molten iron like burning paper, splashing everywhere.

Inside the armor, deafening explosions could be heard continuously.

Even though the Olympus's keel guns still had some power, under the relentless bombardment from the Emperor-class battleships, the entire ship began to sway precariously, as if it might fall apart at any moment.

Each shelling struck the Olympus like a heavy hammer, causing its hull to tremble and groan.

Finally, in a blinding light, the Olympus could no longer withstand the attack and exploded under the bombardment of the Emperor-class battleships.

The immense shock and flames from the explosion instantly engulfed the entire battlefield, even swallowing the massive hull of the Emperor-class battleship.

However, as the light faded, although the Emperor-class battleship was somewhat affected, its flight attitude did not change significantly.

However, upon closer inspection, one can see a huge hole on its side, a hole that resembles a hideous wound, silently telling the story of the thrilling battle that just took place.

"Foolish!" Mitchell had keenly sensed the reason for the damage to the Emperor-class battleship as he stood near the battle barge.

It turned out that after the enemy launched their bombardment, the captain of the Imperial-class battleship insisted on turning, a mistake that caused the Void Shield to bring the enemy into its protective range.

The enemy's artillery fire could easily penetrate the void shield, ultimately resulting in the enemy's desperate bombardment leaving such an ugly hole in the Emperor-class battleship.

The Imperial fleet began to scatter and deal with the UED guard ships that had failed to escape. Soon after, the UED was completely annihilated, except for a few battleships that managed to escape.

"Your Majesty, I have failed you." After escaping from the UED battleship, Xizedo entered the prayer hall of the battle barge and knelt on the ground to pray to the statue of the Emperor.

“You did a good job.” Killer Saber approached Cizado, looking at the creation she had made. “The game is over, and your mission is complete.”

Xize stood up, looked at the petite "human" in front of him, and slowly said, "I had already noticed."

"Then why are you still risking your life?"

"That's my duty."
