Chapter 158 - 158 158 Nightmare Extra for Alliance Leader Delivering Express Part 5

158: Chapter 158: Nightmare (Extra Chapter for Alliance Leader Delivering Express) (Part 5) 158: Chapter 158: Nightmare (Extra Chapter for Alliance Leader Delivering Express) (Part 5) In the distant seas, the Cangyun was rapidly approaching, and inside its command room, a woman with short hair and heavy makeup, dressed in a blue uniform, was staring at the control screen.

A subordinate asked respectfully and humbly.

“Commander Ling Yin, The Crane Orchid has launched the first strike against us.

Twelve incoming missiles, all supersonic long-range missiles covering various directions.”

“Useless effort.

Let them witness the capabilities of the Cangyun.

Prepare the pulse wave!”

Ling Yin’s tone was indifferent, yet it brimmed with extreme arrogance.

“Yes!”

…

Soon, twelve Phoenix long-range anti-air missiles broke through the air at ultra-high speed.

As they neared, all of them changed their attack trajectory, assaulting from all directions.

Just then!

Zzz!

Suddenly, the Cangyun emitted a special pulse light wave!

A light aura spread out gently!

In an instant, the Phoenix missiles attacking from all directions exploded in a circle centered on the Cangyun!

Boom, boom, boom~~

The visuals were spectacular!

Within the command room of The Crane Orchid, everyone watched the captured footage speechlessly, stunned by the formidable weapon.

If it had intercepted the attack with interception missiles or decoy rounds, that wouldn’t have been too surprising.

But this was direct neutralization and overwhelming destruction!

“What kind of weapon is this?

The missiles have been completely neutralized.”

Lin Zinuo swallowed hard.

“Could it be an energy shield?”

Sun Li exclaimed in amazement as she guessed.

“Impossible, there shouldn’t be a weapon of that caliber in existence yet.

If I’m not mistaken, it should be something like a pulse shield, releasing a strong pulse wave when missiles come within a certain range, directly detonating the incoming missiles.”

Qian Chengxue’s expression grew increasingly tense, her face more solemn.

“So, what do we do?

Our weapons won’t have any effect against it?”

“Yeah…..”

…

It was at that moment that Zi Qing suddenly spoke up and reminded them.

“Sister Xue, the enemy is adjusting their flight direction!”

“What, are they backing off?”

Sun Li found it incredible.

“No, they are maneuvering!

They are trying to circumvent our front!”

Chen Xijie made her own judgment.

At that instant, Qian Chengxue quickly reacted and devised a counter-strategy.

“Adjust the ship’s course to be directly opposing theirs!

Keep a tight watch on them.”

“Understood!”

Zi Qing and others immediately responded.

“Han Na, calculate the optimal attack range for the main gun.

As soon as the opponent is about to come within range, start charging the main gun.”

Qian Chengxue continued to issue orders.

Since the missiles hadn’t worked well, the ship’s beam main gun should definitely be effective; she couldn’t believe the enemy could withstand that too.

She was confident that a direct hit would surely bring the enemy down.

Without standard energy shields, even the strongest aerial combat platforms are inherently fragile.

The only trouble was that the enemy seemed particularly cunning, already starting to maneuver.

“Right, we still have the main gun.”

Everyone present quickly came to the realization.

The Crane Orchid’s strongest weapon wasn’t its missiles but the beam main gun.

“Calculating range, if at full capacity, the enemy is within our attack range.”

Han Na calculated quickly, and soon the answer emerged, and she immediately reported with excitement.

She hadn’t expected The Crane Orchid’s main gun’s range to be so extensive.

“Good.”

Qian Chengxue nodded in response.

“Then, Sister Xue, shall we attack now?”

Sun Li asked excitedly.

“Not yet, the distance is too great.

It gives the enemy too much time to respond and avoid the attack.

First, charge up!

Look for the right moment.”

Qian Chengxue kept her cool; the initial preemptive strike had failed.

Now in a passive state, another failure would only exacerbate the perilous situation of The Crane Orchid.

In the command room of the Cangyun.

“Commander Ling Yin, the target is synchronizing their turn with us.”

“Time to give our quarry a welcome gift.

Unleash it!”

Ling Yin issued the attack command with an expressionless face!

“Yes!”

Click!

Click!

The hatches on the base of the Cangyun opened, and a mass of missiles poured out.

The countless missiles headed towards The Crane Orchid, at least fifty or sixty of them.

Inside the command room of The Crane Orchid, the system emitted a shrill alarm, and everyone saw fifty or sixty red dots rapidly approaching.

“The enemy has launched an attack!”

Chen Xijie urgently reported.

“Prepare to intercept!”

“Understood!”

Everyone began to busily adjust the short-range intercepting cannons, rockets, and various interception missiles.

In fact, originally, the ammunition reserve of The Crane Orchid wasn’t much inferior to that of the Cangyun, but after all, it had already engaged in two large-scale battles before, so its ammunition reserve certainly couldn’t compare with the opponent’s.

Everyone watched as the attack grew closer and closer, their expressions taut.

Just as those incoming missiles entered the optimal interception range.

Qian Chengxue gave the order.

“Intercept!”

Boom~

The Crane Orchid fired interception missiles one after another.

Suddenly, on the radar scan, multiple red dots disappeared, but still, about a dozen red dots broke through the first wave of interception missiles.

At this time, the short-range cannons automatically adjusted their positions and the rockets began to pour down.

Simultaneously, Qian Chengxue issued another command.

“Full left rudder shift for the ship!”

“Yes!”

…..

The nerves of everyone in the control room were taut.

Boom~

Instantaneously, one missile after another exploded in the air, one hit on the side of the deck, but the others were all intercepted.

“Left side middle deck is hit, the rest all intercepted,”

Chen Xijie quickly reported the situation.

Huh~~

Lin Zinuo and others just breathed a sigh of relief.

Zi Qing alarmingly warned, “The enemy has launched a second wave of missiles, no, two volleys!

The enemy has launched two consecutive missile attacks.”

The radar screen scanned two clusters of large red dots rapidly approaching.

“Damn it, the enemy intends to crush us with saturation attacks.”

Chen Xijie looked at this incoming mass of attacks, and her scalp went numb.

“Complaining doesn’t do any good, intercept as much as possible!

Zi Qing, calculate the optimal coordinates to launch an attack.”

Qian Chengxue’s mind was quickly spinning, figuring out how to bring down the opponent.

“Yes!”

Zi Qing quickly calculated the firing angle.

…..

On the deck, Su Mo rushed over to the Mecha under maintenance, he said to Qin Wang, who was still making repairs and hadn’t taken shelter yet, “No need to check anymore, go take shelter quickly.”

“It’s okay, almost done!”

Qin Wang responded without turning his head, his hands and feet moving swiftly to finish up.

Just then, the first wave of missiles attacked, and as they neared The Crane Orchid, one by one they were intercepted and exploded spectacularly, like colorful fireworks.

But as another missile that broke through hit the middle deck, it exploded and directly swallowed more than a dozen crew members.

It sharply brought everyone back to the harsh reality that this was war, raw and relentless.

However, Qin Wang, engrossed in finishing up, didn’t notice any of this; his movements grew faster and faster.

In just five or six minutes, he managed to fit and close the exposed armor section, wiped the sweat from his forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Su Mo.

“It’s done.”

“Thanks!”

Su Mo, without wasting a word, opened the cockpit and climbed straight in.

Quick as a flash, the second wave of missiles broke through and attacked, and the third wave closely followed, The Crane Orchid’s alarm ringing more urgently.

“Everyone take cover!”

Zhang Ru and others, while setting up machine guns for defense, bellowed at full strength.

The Crane Orchid’s short-range cannons fired wildly, every firing unit activated!

Whizz-whizz~

Interception missiles soared into the sky again!

Unfortunately, there were too many, and momentarily the firepower was inadequate, letting a large number of missiles through.

The imminent hit was foreseeable.

Bang-bang~

Just then, from afar, the battleships Soaring and Blue Cloud, their close-defense cannons, suddenly all fired towards The Crane Orchid.

Boom-Boom~~

In the sky, missile after missile burst apart, casting the sky ablaze in red, countless sparks and debris fell like meteors.

However, before people could even feel relieved, the real nightmare arrived.

Following closely was the third wave of missiles, which suddenly disintegrated in mid-air, turning into a blanket of shrapnel raining down; the incoming missiles were cluster munitions!

Su Mo, quick with his hands and eyes, controlled the massive body of his Mecha, directly shielding Qin Wang.

Suddenly, over half of The Crane Orchid was covered in shrapnel.

Boom…Boom~

The zones that were hit were literally swept clean by the barrage.

“Ahh!”

Screams rang out one after another; although the pain was reduced in the game, it was still very painful.

Even Su Mo’s Mecha’s back was struck by the burst rounds, but luckily, the Azure Mecha’s armor was not for show and withstood the onslaught.

Now, the entire ship’s deck was massively aflame, and the allies assisting in defense were killed in droves.

Qin Wang, who had just escaped with his life, was also stunned.

“This…”

“Hurry and hide,”

After giving instructions to Qin Wang, Su Mo piloted the Mecha towards the bow; the situation clearly looked grim.

Although he seemed to be of little help, he should still be able to play some role, at worst using a short-range rifle to snipe at the interception missiles which sounded far-fetched, but that’s what Mecha capabilities are for.
