_2 Chapter 1260: Chapter 1137 Space War!
_2 He felt he got it.
Then, a warship silently exploded into a shimmering fireball in space.
A massive, pitch-black warship suddenly leapt out of the inky background of the universe.
The battle began.
Contrary to Qi Ye’s imagined cacophony of various explosions, command voices, and equipment alert sounds, the actual battlefield was very quiet.
The sound of escort ships taking off didn’t reach him, he couldn’t hear the broadcast from inside the warship; the silent explosion of escort ships was like fleeting fireworks, insignificant and silent.
The orders he heard were calm and restrained, the sound of fire control systems was clear and accurate.
Qi Ye had never experienced such a quiet battlefield before.
It was eerily quiet.
The battle was intense; on the dark space tapestry, each fleeting spark was the passing of a life, each exploding fireball dramatic proof that thousands of soldiers went down with their ship.
But all of this happened in silence.
Qi Ye thought that the human fleet was being overwhelmingly crushed until the Kunlun got close enough to engage in battle, then he realized the situation was more optimistic than he thought.

Humans were indeed at a disadvantage, but they weren’t entirely without the power to fight back.
The problem was, no matter if it was a battleship or an escort ship of the opponent, they all sported a pitch-black coating.
Even if they were blown up, they didn’t explode, so when they were destroyed, the death scene was not dramatic enough and quite difficult to see from a distance.
The biggest trouble was that the human identification system had trouble locking onto the alien spaceships.
The old-fashioned “visual” shooting, which had been phased out, had to be the primary method now.

As such, the human fleet had been closing the gap at all costs before, creating opportunities for the fleet behind.
By the time the Kunlun engaged, it was already a crazy exchange of blood.
It was about who had more firepower and thicker armor.
The distance was so close that the floating guns controlled by Qi Ye could directly shoot at the enemy warships!
This was practically a boarding battle during the Great Navigation Era!
Qi Ye even saw some extremely fast assault ships carrying armored assault soldiers rushing towards the enemy warships!
Of course, he saw this through the cover command in his earpiece and highlighted notations on the operation panel.
It was impossible to find an assault ship on the chaotic battlefield with the naked eye.
The battlefield was a mess, with escort ships and assault ships flying at high speeds in all directions, and the cannons of both sides shooting wildly.
Qi Ye himself was part of the cannon system, and after receiving the “fire at will” command, he also started firing wildly.
His initial target was the side of the tough, pitch-black warship from which faint lights occasionally sparked.
Though he couldn’t clearly see what was being fired, at this time, the only thing that could still be firing was a gun, right?
Even if it wasn’t a gun, compared to the thick armor, these places were at least structural weak points!
It was over with a boom!
The frustrating thing was that after paralyzing four positions consecutively, the attack rate he encountered suddenly increased several times.
The dense high-energy trajectories on the radar and those passing by him were terrifying.
Qi Ye immediately reported this.
But that couldn’t change his situation, he had to maneuver more frequently, and even fight space fighters with his flight cannon.
Shuttle Machines, Escort Ships, and Space Fighters were engaged in combat.
Each minute, each second, a space fighter exploded; the two massive ships fought at close range; Oleg was firing cannons while cursing everything in his hometown dialect; the artillery communication channel was occasionally filled with violent explosions; his equipment was wailing under extreme maneuvers, the overloading stress weighing heavily on his body…
By this time, he finally got a taste of the passion of a major space battle!
To make up for the defect that sound could not be transmitted in space, Cloud Dream cleverly played background music into the player’s ears and it was multi-channel – a spirited battle music with a distant, ethereal space opera as the backdrop.
The immersive experience was off the charts!
Especially the increasing achievements – the number of structures suspected of being gun ports destroyed by him was increasing.
Furthermore, amidst the chaotic battle situation, he took advantage of the chaos to destroy several Space Fighters and large weapons suspected to be torpedoes, which made him more and more excited.
But his individual achievements couldn’t really change the battle situation.
The situation was deteriorating.
The hull of the enemy warship, whether it was biomaterial or memory metal, seemed to possess some self-healing property.
In such relentless exchange of fire, the Kunlun had more and more zones with broken air-tightness, meaning it had to drop the airlock and give up those zones.
The soldiers were courageous enough that even if they were abandoned, as long as they were not immediately thrown into space, they could still fight relying on their emergency protective suits, ensuring that the firepower level didn’t drop dramatically.
But as time went on, equipment operating in hardship would reach its limit eventually and it was a simultaneous shutdown in several zones – these zones had already been destroyed, it was only the tenacity of the soldiers that delayed this moment till now.
The Kunlun was at a disadvantage in terms of firepower, hence the space fighters received less covering fire, suffering greater losses, then the firepower dropped again…
The vicious cycle was accelerating.
The Kunlun was gradually walking towards its doom.
Unless the other warships came to help, or the assault team rushing into the enemy ship could disintegrate it, otherwise, this vicious cycle was almost impossible to break.
But if the Kunlun was at a disadvantage in the fierce close-range combat, could other warships spare any effort to assist their allies?
