Chapter 392 383 Yinglong Fierce Battle

Each Benefactor Warship was slightly larger than the Yinglong Cruiser, and when their main guns on the bows fired, Bai Zhongqi could immediately tell from the power that these warships, which he had never seen before, were at least of the Benefactor's heavy cruiser class, the same type as the Yinglong Cruiser.

Six Benefactor heavy cruisers took off from the planet's surface and gathered towards the Yinglong Cruiser above Taoran's second satellite, clearly targeting it.

The captain of the Yinglong Cruiser urgently ordered the warship to ascend, causing all the crew members to tense up, concentrating fully at their battle stations, ready for combat.

The foremost Benefactor heavy cruiser aimed its main cannon at the Yinglong Cruiser, which was located on an atmosphere-less satellite, and suddenly fired two light beams. The military technology of the Benefactor civilization also differed greatly from that of the Iridium Star Civilization, as their main cannon was not a Gauss Railgun but primarily these so-called Grating Cannons.

The Grating Cannon was a weapon that straddled laser weapons and beam weapons, with an attack speed almost like lasers but a power nearing that of beams. Conversely, its attack speed wasn't as fast as lasers, nor was its power as strong as light speed; however, this middle ground weapon was very difficult to dodge.

These two Grating Cannon attacks heavily struck the Yinglong Cruiser, which had already raised its shields. Just as it was taking off, these hits forcibly pushed it back down, smashing it onto the ground. Even though the ship was equipped with the finest dampers from Iridium Star technology, providing excellent shock absorption, such a jolt tossed everyone inside the Yinglong Cruiser head over heels.

"Shields weakened by four percent, all systems functioning normally."

Upon hearing the subordinate's report, the captain felt slightly relieved. But then, his anxiety peaked once more.

The remaining enemy ships also converged, their Grating Cannons targeting the Yinglong Cruiser and suddenly firing.

Already battered to the ground, the Yinglong Cruiser, facing these Grating Cannon shots, was almost unavoidable, suffering ferocious attacks that once again shook the warship significantly.

The captain knew if this continued, the Yinglong Cruiser would be trapped, constantly enduring the Benefactors' attacks without the ability to retaliate.

Solid hits on its shields also noticeably weakened them. Although the Benefactor Warship might not match the Star Alliance Warship in single-ship firepower and possibly technology, it was nonetheless capable of giving the latter a run for its money.

Especially when they had the advantage in numbers.

At this moment, the Yinglong Cruiser's AI reminded its Captain, "Captain, we have already endured too much firepower during takeoff, we are not in full condition to fight these enemy ships, their main cannons are very threatening and they coordinate well. If we continue the fight, we might destroy two enemy ships, but our own ship is very likely to be destroyed."

It stated the conclusion based on its calculations, and the Captain knew quite well that Yinglong was not wrong; Star Alliance Warships had not yet reached the capability to handle situations like facing Teizene without falling short when outnumbered. Moreover, the Yinglong Cruiser was at a complete disadvantage currently.

"But we still have people on Taoran Star," he said.

Yinglong did not respond, and a holographic screen popped up in front of the Captain, displaying Chancellor Bai Zhongqi's stern face.

"Your Majesty..." The Captain felt uneasy seeing Bai Zhongqi.

"Captain, prioritize preserving the Yinglong Cruiser, minimize enemy damage to our ship as much as possible, find an opportunity to engage the Warp Engine, and rendezvous with our 33rd squadron," said the Chancellor.

"What about the squads we deployed to Taoran Star?" the Captain asked, not wanting to bear the stigma of abandoning his comrades.

Bai Zhongqi said, "Trust in them, they have the ability to survive on Taoran Star. I have already ordered the Universe Army and the Silver Feather Army's fleets to depart, and in five and a half Earth days, not a hair of Benefactor presence will remain on Taoran Star."

His expression was solemn and even a bit somber. The Benefactors had set a trap for him, and though he had to jump in, it still infuriated him. By now, he had nearly figured out the Benefactor's objective; within the Xunyi Star Zone, the Star Alliance held the most power, and this was the Benefactors' plan to inflict a wound on the Alliance and then vanish.
