Chapter 574: Chapter 159: Who is the Hunter?_3


    “Finally, they’ve stopped running?”


    Wizard Verna, the fleetmander of the me and Metal Trading Company, eximed excitedly, “Want to counterattack? Let’s unleash everything we’ve got!”


    Commands swiftly issued from her lips.


    A main-force warship, three auxiliary warships, and a supply ship that made up her fleet immediately carried out Verna’s orders.


    From this performance, it wasn’t hard to deduce that Wizard Verna was no amateur.


    At least in star warfaremand, she was considered quitepetent among greenmanders.


    None of the five warshipmanders and the Tower Spirit opposed or corrected Verna’smand.


    The White Tower Alliance fleet also promptly responded by adjusting their fleet formation.


    Compared to the me and Metal Trading Company’s formation where the main battleship led the pack, the auxiliary warships tagged behind, and the supply ship stayed out of the fray – Schr Silvano yed it safe.<div>


    Two auxiliary warships moved ahead, nking on either side, the main battleship fell back by one ship’s position, while thest auxiliary warship and supply ship tailed the main battleship closely.


    This formation was rather peculiar, neither offensive nor defensive. It was unclear what Schr Silvano was pondering.


    Neither Sandra nor Verna paid it any mind.


    Link, once he noticed, felt quite ufortable.@@novelbin@@


    This modified line formation effectively avoided the trouble of being attacked from the nk and rear.


    The two auxiliary warships heading in front on either side could readily back up the left and right rear sides at any time.


    “Such sharp instincts?”


    Link muttered, then adjusted his target of attack, focusing on the fleet of the me and Metal Trading Company.


    However, Link didn’t act rashly.


    They were not the frontline attackers, but the surprise elements, so naturally they couldn’te into y straight away.


    The medium-caliber muzzle of the “Cloud Rainbow” warship suddenly shed, taking the initiative andunching an attack.


    Two half-powered beams of the Light of Annihtion were shot towards the two enemy fleets, a greeting and a probe of their defenses.


    The two prepared fleets, while initiating their counter-attack, made evasive and defensive maneuvers.


    The first round of attack, which started suddenly, quickly fizzled out.


    One beam of the Light of Annihtion from the “Cloud Rainbow” was taken head-on by the main battleship of the me and Metal Trading Company’s fleet, while the other beam missed most of the White Tower Alliance fleet, just grazing the supply ship’s edge, causing it to sway slightly.


    The recoiling probes from both fleets, led byrge-caliber star-annihting cannons, were mostly evaded by the “Cloud Rainbow”, which took a few hits.


    With the probing concluded, the battle escted rapidly.


    For a moment, the Light of Annihtion, star-annihting cannons, Dissociation Cannons, Antimatter Cannons, and the space type shock cannons, crisscrossed across the sector.


    The eleven engaged warships escaped unscathed.


    But the surrounding minor celestial bodies had taken a hailstrom of damage.


    The “Cloud Rainbow” held its ground against both opposing fleets, not showing any sign of falling behind.


    “Damn it!”


    Watching the “Cloud Rainbow” remain solid as a rock in the shower of firepower, Verna couldn’t help but curse, “That’s a real disy of extravagance. A custom-made gship, it must have cost a ton of magic stones!”


    Among the direct descendants of each Wizard Organisation, the treatment was noticeably different.


    Sandra was the only girl among the fourth generation of the Diomand family, having been pampered as the favorite from her infancy, it’s all due to her wealth in magic stones.


    “Master, Master.”


    Franda, who was dispatched early as a scout by Link, called out from his mind, “Franda found something good.”


    “Speak.”


    Link responded immediately.


    “Master look, the defense shield at the tail of this main warship is broken!”


    While speaking, Franda shared her view.


    Link took a look and noticed that near the engine at the aft of the me and Metal Trading Company’s main battleship, the intensity of the defense shield was evidently weaker than other parts.


    This must have been the result of a beam of full-powered Light of Annihtion from the “Cloud Rainbow” catching the battleship off-position not long ago.


    The attack had been blocked and hadn’t inflicted any damage on the ship’s frame, but it disrupted the flow of the battleship’s shielding.


    The me and Metal Trading Company’s fleet haven’t had the chance to repair it properly.


    An opportunity missed is an opportunity lost.


    Link decided to strike alone, poking at the ship’s rear, while keeping the Waterdrop Warship hidden as a reserve and ace up his sleeve.


    Wizard Verna suddenly felt a chill sweep over her rear.
