Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 1166: Chapter 632

The enormity of the Mechanical Ark is such that loading billions of beings aboard is not an exaggeration.

And with the modification technology handed down by Waluk, the loyal troops he brought out were all biochemically modified, possessing Insect Race traits. At the very least, they were corrupted and infected by the void, parasitized by insects.

They are precisely the main source of the Subspace Shadow.

Of course, merely over a billion beings are not enough to create such a massive Subspace Shadow. The number of beings aboard Alfonso I accounts for only about 15%-20% of the total.

After all, there’s another Mechanical Ark and several hundred ships, some of which are large transport ships recently brought from the rear, intended for Alamita’s ground offensive. Combined, from sailors to ground forces to logistics personnel, the total reaches between 5 to 8 billion.

Only at such a scale can they, with specialized technology or after the Hive Mind has tampered, be thrown into the subspace-induced void, expanding it into a Subspace Shadow.

And as long as these beings are annihilated on a large scale, it would strike at the root of the Subspace Shadow.

Although this Starship only has 15% to 20% of the scale, Gu Hang doesn’t actually need to slaughter all 5 to 8 billion people. By reducing it by 20%, coupled with the previous weakening caused by Waluk’s loss of control, the Subspace Shadow would be weakened to a level that Gu Hang could directly penetrate.

By then, the Subspace Shadow would exist but no longer be able to perfectly envelop the Storm God Kingdom. At that time, Gu Hang could tear a gap in that shadow, allowing the Storm God Kingdom’s power to some extent penetrate the Real Universe.

Achieving this step is sufficient, as he would have the means to interfere with reality and help the Alliance’s forces secure the final victory in this war.

The current challenge facing Gu Hang is how to eliminate the billions aboard this Mechanical Ark.

It’s impossible for him and the over four hundred Interstellar Warriors by his side to kill them all one by one.

How long would that take?

The current plan is still to strive to destroy this Mechanical Ark from within.

Once the ship explodes, the vast majority of the billions inside naturally wouldn’t survive.

However, he is in a dilemma.

It’s not that he can’t bring himself to do it.

The current situation leaves no room for mercy. Besides, although Gu Hang has always cared about human lives, these people modified by Waluk and infected by the Insect Swarm are already beyond saving, akin to the dead or Aliens.

The hard part for Gu Hang is… destroying the Mechanical Ark is not easy.

Although an Alpha-class Psychic can allegedly tear apart a Starship with ease, there’s a difference between Starships. Tearing apart a patrol ship is one thing, tearing apart a Battleship is another, aren’t they different concepts?

Tearing apart the Void Shield is relatively easier. After all, the Void Shield is essentially an energy structure, to some extent harnessing subspace powers. Strong Spiritual Energy has a better tearing effect on it. Not to mention, in the past, Gu Hang had an entire Storm Mage Corps assisting him in such tasks.

Now, Gu Hang doesn’t need to deal with the Void Shield, but directly making the Mechanical Ark’s physical structure explode from the inside is even harder than tearing the Void Shield open.

Even with the power of the Divine Realm, it couldn’t be done, let alone now that he’s on his own.

A brute force approach seems unusable…

So, let’s use an even more brute force approach!

Gu Hang stood up, his gaze sweeping around as he said, “Follow me, let’s find the core of the ship, we must fight our way through!”

…

The strategy Gu Hang intends to use is the most traditional method in boarding battles employed by Interstellar Warriors, directly fighting their way to the core of the enemy ship and planting explosives to destroy it.

But the problem is, how could the Mechanical Ark be the same as ordinary ships?

Finding the engine core of an Escort Ship or Destroyer, blowing it up, then blowing up the ammunition depot or energy hold, would cause internal explosions sufficient to destroy the Starship.

However, at the level of a cruiser, it’s not that easy to explode. The ship’s design includes mitigations, with multiple separated energy holds and ammunition depots; even if one is destroyed, the explosion is controlled within a limited area due to the damage control design, leading to serious damage to the ship but not its complete explosion from the inside.

Even cruisers have such internal mitigation designs, let alone a massive Mechanical Ark like Alfonso I.

With no better approach, the only option is to push forward, destroying one at a time.

Not every situation allows for shortcuts.

He has already come to terms with this.

With Terminator Squad led by multiple company champions as the vanguard and Gu Hang himself as the core, this team of over four hundred people began their assault within the Mechanical Ark, with the central cathedral as their starting point.

On their path, despite the loss of direct communication with Waluk, the Sect of Mechanics troops were not entirely without command.

One unit after another, whether vast in number or elite in quality, stood in their way.

Faced with these obstacles, Gu Hang and his Shadow Warriors could only bravely charge forward!

Gu Hang’s Spiritual Energy transformed into bolts of lightning, blasting forward, destroying mighty war machines; the Interstellar Warriors efficiently cooperated with their lord’s formidable power, sweeping away other enemies.

Their primary goal was to destroy the command nodes of the Mechanical Ark.

Unlike ordinary ships, which have a command core with the bridge, the central cathedral plays a similar role on Alfonso I. However, other cathedrals can perform similar functions. The command nodes of Alfonso I are dispersed.

But no matter, destroy one at a time;

Find another engine core, blow it up;

Then find another energy hold, blow it up, and then the second one…

Gu Hang and his Interstellar Warriors fought relentlessly on Alfonso I for a whole six days!

In those six days, they didn’t even have time to rest!

Such intense, continuous fighting could only be endured by Interstellar Warriors and top-tier Psychics like Gu Hang.

Despite Gu Hang’s oversight, with each battle’s hardest point being where Gu Hang broke through with Spiritual Power, more than two hundred Shadow Warriors perished.

Now, surrounding Gu Hang, only over two hundred remain.

And after such immense sacrifices and six days of relentless fighting, they managed to destroy over thirty important nodes on the Mechanical Ark!
