Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Inside the main battles.h.i.+p!
Gabriel said into the communicator, “General Humphrey, please answer if you copy.”
“…”
“General Vito, please answer if you copy!”
“…”
“General Aston, please answer if you copy!”
“…”
“General Duke, please answer if you copy!”
“…”
“They’re clearly online. What the h.e.l.l are the four of them doing?” Gabriel was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
“Have you found the coordinates of General Humphrey?” Gabriel asked his subordinates.
“Not yet, but it should be soon.”
“How soon is soon? You answered yesterday that it would be soon, but there hasn’t been any news until today. What’s the use of having you guys?”
“General, Humphrey and the others have voluntarily turned off their GPS. It will take us some time to crack it, but I’m sure we can get that done by today.”
“Alright! Hurry up. I wonder what the four of them are up to. When we find them, I’ll skin them alive.”
Gabriel was seething.
Although he was about to win this battle, he was not happy at all.
They had already been here for so long, but they could not even find a single trace of the Mechanical Hearts. If the higher-ups were to ask, there would definitely be a lot of criticism to come.
Of course, Gabriel was enraged.
“That Vito, I told him to find the whereabouts of the Mechanical Hearts, and he just disappeared.
“And Humphrey. I told him to keep watch on that human. Look at him now, he failed to do that and instead, let him rob us of all the Keriau Gold. What a bunch of trash.”
Gabriel rattled on, getting angrier by the minute.
Due to the theft of Keriau Gold processing plants two days ago, the higher-ups reprimanded him and asked him to capture the culprit in the shortest time possible.
After repeated testing using various instruments, he finally made a discovery yesterday.
There was a small amount of remnant dharmic powers found at the scene.
Dharmic powers were exclusive to immortal cultivators.
Gabriel instantly thought of the two humans and immediately contacted Humphrey.
However, at that time, Humphrey had been imprisoned by Qin Chuan. Naturally, he couldn’t reply. Now that his corpse had turned cold, there was no way he would ever respond.
Just as Gabriel was fuming, the warning lights in the command room suddenly started flas.h.i.+ng.
“What happened?” Gabriel asked, alarmed.
The subordinates stared at the virtual screen in confusion.
“General… General, the system seems to have broken down!” a subordinate said shakily.
“The system broke down?” Gabriel wore an incredulous expression. “Which system broke down?”
He immediately went to the virtual screen.
The screen showed a bunch of random codes.
“General, it seems like all the systems have collapsed.” His subordinates didn’t dare to speak too loudly.
“What, all?!” Gabriel was particularly alarmed.
He raised his arm and projected a control interface on his wrist.
Gabriel tried the functions on it. As his men had said, all systems had collapsed.
“Why did it suddenly collapse?” Gabriel was surprised.
All systems broke down. This was a very serious problem.
For advanced civilizations, they relied heavily on technology. Once a system breakdown happens, it would be equivalent to losing their eyes, ears, arms, and legs. It would be difficult for them to proceed.
“Is it a system malfunction or what?” Gabriel asked after a moment’s thought.
“I don’t think so. Our AI chip is considered quite advanced among the myriad races in the universe.
“We are using the latest chip. It is outstanding. Don’t mention big problems, we haven’t even had any minor problems,” said his subordinates.
Gabriel did not know about technology, so he naturally did not know how to handle it.
“Then find the cause and fix it quickly,” Gabriel said.
“Yes!”
The subordinates immediately brought out various interfaces and began to examine them seriously.
Gabriel stepped to the side and looked out. An ill-feeling rose in him.
At the same time.
After waiting for three minutes, the Mechanical engineers immediately destroyed the systems of the Moon Wolf army.
The kings gave the order, and they launched a counterattack.
The Mechanical battles.h.i.+ps activated stealth mode and rushed to the various battlefields.
Due to the collapse of the systems, all the troops of the Moon Wolf had their communications cut off and were unable to give orders. The soldiers did not know how to act and were instantly in a mess.
On the other hand, the White Wolf race’s morale had soared. They took this opportunity to counterattack.
For a moment, all the Moon Wolf troops were stunned.
However, because their battles.h.i.+ps and weapons were more advanced, they did not suffer much loss. Only their attacks stopped.
However, when the Mechanical battles.h.i.+ps arrived, the situation changed.
The White Wolf soldiers inside were all equipped with Blaze. The powerful destructive power could instantly destroy the Moon Wolves’ battles.h.i.+ps.
In just a few minutes, the Moon Wolf army suffered heavy losses. The weapons and equipment that they were so proud of were like paper in front of the powerful firepower of Blaze.
On the other side.
Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi arrived near the Moon Wolf’s main battles.h.i.+p.
To catch bandits, one should first catch the leader.
This was written in the art of war.
To end the battle quickly, the fastest way was to wipe out the strongest combat power of either side.
At that moment, Gabriel had no idea what was happening outside.
“How’s the system repairing?” Gabriel asked his subordinate again.
His subordinates were busy, but the system did not improve.
One of the subordinates said fearfully, “G-General, the system crash is quite severe this time. It will be very difficult to repair in a short period of time.”
Gabriel frowned. “Have you found the reason?”
The subordinate wiped the sweat off his face. No one knew if it was cold sweat or hot sweat, but he said, “He might have been infected by a virus. It’s probably caused by the White Wolves.”
Actually, he still hadn’t found the specific reason for the crash. He had no choice but to come up with a reason. After all, the general didn’t know much about technology. He should be able to bluff his way through.
Gabriel’s expression darkened as he asked, “The White Wolf race’s civilization level is so much lower than ours. That shouldn’t be the case!”
The subordinate immediately explained, “General, I’m guessing that the White Wolves bought the virus from a higher race.
“given their intelligence, even if they were given thousands of years to develop, they would not be able to create a virus that could paralyze our system.”
“That seems to be a possibility.” Gabriel rubbed his chin and nodded. “No matter what, we have to repair the system as soon as possible.”
“Understood! We will do our best.”
The subordinate heaved a sigh of relief when Gabriel stopped asking questions.
Gabriel walked over to the observation platform. In front of him was a high-performance panoramic gla.s.s. He could clearly see what was outside.
For some reason, the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger as he looked outside.
All of a sudden.
A battles.h.i.+p appeared in his field of vision.
Gabriel’s eyes widened in shock as a blinding beam of light shot toward him.
Boom!
The beam of light easily pa.s.sed through the battles.h.i.+p’s defensive barrier. At the same time, it also pierced through the panoramic gla.s.s before Gabriel.
The main battles.h.i.+p was instantly penetrated.
Gabriel was a powerhouse in the Saint realm, after all. His reaction was very timely, and he dodged the attack.
After witnessing the power of the beam, Gabriel felt a lingering fear. If he was. .h.i.t, his body would definitely be severely injured.
“Be on guard! Enemy ambus.h.!.+ Everyone, prepare for battle!” Gabriel shouted.
His voice, with the power of his realm, reached every corner of the battles.h.i.+p.
The soldiers in the battles.h.i.+p immediately gathered.
Gabriel activated the battle mode on his armor and made his way out through the hole in the panoramic gla.s.s.
