Chapter 585 Bloody Battle and the First Glimmer of Dawn
On the battlefield, lasers clashed and cannons roared as the dark forces' interceptor warships surged in like a tidal wave, trapping Lin Yu's assault team in the center. One after another, black warships opened their menacing cannons, unleashing a deluge of energy beams, instantly transforming the surrounding area into a deathly inferno. Lin Yu gritted his teeth, his hands moving rapidly across the control panel, the warship darting left and right through the hail of bullets like agile fish.
"Hold on, everyone! Maintain formation!" Lin Yu's voice rang out in the communication channel, steady and powerful, yet unable to conceal a hint of anxiety. The team members cooperated tacitly, returning fire at the enemy while making a difficult advance towards the command ship. Xiao Wang controlled the main cannon, firing dazzling laser beams with precision, hitting one interceptor warship after another, but the enemy was simply too numerous, and the gaps they had just opened were instantly closed again.
Ellie stared intently at the screen, her forehead beaded with sweat: "Lin Yu, our energy shield won't last much longer. At this rate, we won't be able to get close to the command ship!" Lin Yu's eyes were sharp as he quickly scanned the battlefield and suddenly noticed that the enemy's interceptor fleet experienced a brief period of confusion when it turned.
"Attention everyone! Take advantage of their turn and concentrate fire on the left flank to force a breakthrough!" Lin Yu shouted, leading the way as he steered the warship towards the enemy's left flank. The team members obeyed, and the weapons, enhanced with amethyst energy, unleashed tremendous power. Waves of energy surged like raging tides, instantly tearing through the enemy's defenses.
In the fierce firefight, a large interceptor warship locked onto Lin Yu's ship and launched a giant missile. The missile, trailing a long plume of flame, hurtled towards him like a deadly grim reaper. Lin Yu's expression changed drastically; he frantically maneuvered his warship to evade, but the missile relentlessly pursued him.
"Lin Yu, watch out!" Xiao Wang exclaimed. Just as the missile was about to hit, teammate Jack rammed his warship into it. With a loud bang, the missile exploded in mid-air, and Jack's warship was thrown out of control by the force of the explosion, tumbling through space.
"Jack!" Lin Yu cried out in anguish. Jack's weak voice came through the communication channel: "Don't worry about me, keep going, you must destroy the command ship..." Lin Yu's eyes were red, and a raging fire burned in his heart. He vowed to avenge Jack.
Despite the enemy's fierce attacks, the assault team finally broke through the intercepting fleet and drew ever closer to the command ship. However, the command ship was surrounded by state-of-the-art defense systems, with energy barriers forming impenetrable walls that blocked their path.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and said to his team members, "Everyone get ready. We only have one chance. Attack the energy barrier nodes with all our might!" The team members nodded and increased their weapon energy to the maximum.
Just as they were preparing to launch their attack, the main fleet of the Cosmic Alliance engaged in fierce combat with the dark forces. General Alvin personally commanded the operation, and the powerful firepower of the Alliance warships temporarily suppressed the dark forces. This bought precious time for Lin Yu and his companions.
"Now! Attack!" Lin Yu shouted, unleashing a barrage of weapons fueled by amethyst energy. Brilliant beams of light struck the nodes of the energy barrier. Under the powerful energy impact, cracks appeared in the barrier, which then shattered with a deafening roar.
Taking advantage of the situation, the raiding squad rushed towards the command ship. The dark forces' command ship also sensed the danger and quickly adjusted its defenses, unleashing a barrage of artillery fire. Lin Yu and his team skillfully maneuvered their warship, dodging attacks and steadily closing in on the command ship.
Finally, they arrived near the command ship. Lin Yu aimed at the core of the command ship, pressed the launch button, and a missile containing amethyst energy roared out, accurately hitting the target. With a deafening roar, the core of the command ship exploded, flames shot into the sky, and the ship began to shake violently.
The dark forces' fleet was instantly thrown into chaos; the paralysis of their command ship left them without unified command. The Space Alliance's warships seized the opportunity and launched a full-scale counterattack. In the fierce battle, the dark forces' defenses gradually collapsed, and their warships were destroyed one after another.
Lin Yu gazed at the glimmer of victory before him, his heart filled with mixed emotions. While this decisive battle had achieved a partial victory, they had also paid a heavy price. Whether the forces of darkness had been completely eradicated, and whether the universe could truly usher in peace, remained uncertain…
