STARTING FROM THE PLANETARY GOVERNOR
Chapter 825 - 825 451 Seizing the Ship Heroic SpiritChapter 825: Chapter 451, Seizing the Ship Heroic Spirit Chapter 825: Chapter 451, Seizing the Ship Heroic Spirit If Gu Hang merely wanted to secure a victory in this war, he could have achieved that already.
The Wraith Spire was indeed powerful, after all, as a main battleship. But in Gu Hang’s hands, it was still possible to tear apart the battleship’s Void Shield and temporarily disable it.
Then, with the full fleet firing in unison, the battleship lacking the protection of the Void Shield would quickly explode into space debris.
Although the armor of the battleship was also very thick, it couldn’t possibly withstand the volley of an entire fleet without protection.
If it could withstand the first round, it wouldn’t withstand the second.
If Gu Hang had chosen to do so, the battle would have finished earlier.
But didn’t he covet their vessel?
That was a main battleship!
Alone and unprotected!
Just the purchase alone would cost fifty billion! Not to mention bloodsucking, based on the financial situation of the Alliance, it would take five years of savings!
And that would still be under the condition that the Alliance Government wouldn’t eat, drink, or spend money.
Moreover, something like a battleship, even if you have the money, isn’t easy to buy.
The production of battleships in the Empire is limited, and they are claimed before completion or sometimes even before construction begins.
Even if Gu Hang later acquired battleship technology and wanted to start production, that wouldn’t be an easy task. Constructing shipyards is a strenuous endeavor; the sheer size makes the capital investment particularly huge.
And to draw such a blueprint was a bit difficult; Gu Hang hadn’t even managed to secure cruiser technology yet.
Getting this battleship that came to his doorstep would save him years of effort.
Since he was aiming to seize the ship, the most convenient method of victory naturally couldn’t be used.
To say nothing of blowing up the ship, even inflicting serious damage was unacceptable, for if the ship couldn’t be towed back or was irreparable after being towed back, it would all be in vain.
And since seizing the ship was the goal, it naturally meant boarding it. It was necessary to kill all the Mutinous Star Warriors and Chaos Cultists corrupted by chaos onboard the battleship.
As for the damage that would occur during the process of seizing the ship, whether it was the loss to the fleet or casualties in the boarding combat, it was both inevitable and a necessary sacrifice.
However, Gu Hang still didn’t choose to commence boarding combat at the very start of the battle.
The technology for teleportation was not great in the Alliance; if teleportation was a must, then they could only rely on Gu Hang leading his Storm Mage Corps into a teleportation combat.
But that was very difficult.
The situation was somewhat like the battle at Korolya.
On that Chaos-corrupted battleship, the power of the Evil God was prevalent. Its affiliation, different from that of the plague outbreak in Korolya, didn’t belong to the ‘Benevolent Father,’ but rather appeared to be that of a ‘Tyrant’ seated on a brass throne.
But undoubtedly, both were equally grand presences.
Though of course, a battleship’s scale didn’t equate to that of a world or a Nest Capital, it didn’t mean Gu Hang could easily use teleportation to send in too many troops.
After all, although the scale of a battleship was smaller, this time Gu Hang didn’t have a blade like the Great Unclean One’s to act as an anchor point to deceive his opponent.
He could only send in a force of around two thousand men into the battleship.
That was already three times more than the number they smuggled into Korolya, but facing hundreds of thousands of Chaos Evildoers, two or three hundred Mutinous Star Warriors, and battling within the domain of the Blood God, Gu Hang still felt the risk was too great.
Even if he participated in person and could guarantee victory, the cost was still a concern that had to be considered.
A price that must be paid for greater gains was one he was not stingy in risking; but when it came to additional investments with equal returns, he didn’t want to spend an extra dime.
Coincidentally, those followers of the Blood God clearly intended to engage in teleportation combat.
Then bring it on.
First kill those who teleport over. That way, when they board the battleship for an offensive, the resistance would obviously become much smaller.
Those two hundred Mutinous Star Warriors, it would definitely be much easier to eliminate them on their own warships than on the opponent’s.
And as long as those two hundred Mutinous Star Warriors were killed, the remaining forces of the ash dead might not even be a hundred, making the entire combat much easier.
However, Gu Hang couldn’t really wait to clear out all the teleporting heretics before dealing with the Wraith Spire.
If he did that, it would be too slow.
Since they couldn’t dare to fire excessively at that battleship for fear of destroying it, and eliminating the traitors on the ship would take time.
In such a case, it was tantamount to completely allowing the Wraith Spire to use the formidable heavy artillery of a battleship to attack their ships at close range, resulting in substantial losses.
If it took just a bit longer, it was not impossible for the battleship to destroy half the fleet.
That would have been a loss too great to justify.
Gu Hang definitely would not let such a result happen.
Therefore, as soon as those two hundred Interstellar Warriors started their teleportation, Gu Hang simultaneously made a counter move: tearing open the rift of the Divine Realm and using Spiritual Energy to forcefully penetrate the veil between the Storm God Kingdom and that battleship.
This was not so easy; what Gu Hang had to tear apart was not only the veil between the Storm God Kingdom and the real world, he also had to break through the domain of the Blood God surrounding that corrupted ship.
In the process of doing so, Gu Hang’s nostrils were filled with the stench of blood, and he was quite anxious, fearing that he might provoke a Great Demon.
