Chapter 1999: Chapter 769: Hope for Upgrade (Part 2)
Realizing that the alien battleship was beyond salvation, after the captain issued the order to abandon the ship, countless aliens began entering the escape pods, launching them into the universe at the fastest speed, scrambling to flee this dangerous area. Under the Drone Quantum Radar Scan, Yan Fei discovered that at least ten thousand escape pods had been launched into the universe, with more being prepared for launch.
This is space, without air, so the explosive power of the Super Hydrogen Bomb was not greatly enhanced as it would be on Earth, which was one reason the Super Hydrogen Bomb couldn’t blow the alien battleship apart from the inside. But when the energy from the great explosion finally spread to the energy center of the alien battleship, things changed. Because the safety valves were destroyed by the explosion, too much energy accumulated in the alien battleship’s energy reactor, and after losing safe control, this energy fused together, creating an earth-shattering explosion.
Compared to the explosion power of the Super Hydrogen Bomb, the blast from the alien battleship’s energy reactor was even more immense. This massive explosion finally shattered the entire alien battleship, and the shockwave swept out into the universe, extending as far as 400,000 kilometers away.
Under the influence of the shockwave from the explosion, all the escape pods that had already entered the universe were destroyed. After the explosion ended, Yan Fei found that the numerous escape pods were reduced to just two lonely survivors. Behind these two lucky escape pods was the alien battleship wreckage that had turned into a space graveyard, with space scattered with incomplete parts from the explosion...
Yan Fei’s Drone Warship was 400,000 kilometers away from the alien battleship, but the shockwave from the alien battleship’s energy reactor explosion still affected it, causing the Drone Carrier to shake violently, almost causing Yan Fei inside to fall. Yan Fei could completely imagine, if the Drone Carrier had been close enough to the alien battleship, it might have been destroyed in the recent explosive disintegration. It taught Yan Fei a lesson, that in future interstellar combats, he should not be too close to the enemy, otherwise, if the enemy launches a self-destructive attack, it could drag him down as well.
Though he was able to destroy this alien battleship, Yan Fei was quite satisfied. Before, he didn’t really know what his true strength was, nor did he have much confidence when facing the alien battleship. Especially when the Drone Carrier’s main cannon could not penetrate the enemy’s defense, he began to worry. Fortunately, the Gravity Bomb played a magical role and effortlessly destroyed the alien battleship.
This also demonstrates that Yan Fei’s 1,000 times Gravity Bomb is a powerful weapon, such Super Weapons shouldn’t normally appear in a lower-level civilization like Dream Island. The alien battleship made a huge mistake in underestimating Yan Fei’s strength, leading it to be destroyed by the close detonation of the Gravity Bomb.
The alien battleship also launched Gravity Bombs, destroying one of Yan Fei’s Quantum Satellites, but with only 50 times power, it was only able to destroy some small weapons and warships. From the fact that it didn’t launch another Gravity Bomb in the end, it could be inferred that the alien battleship’s Gravity Bombs were likely few in number, with a maximum power of only 50 times, unable to be used in the decisive moment against the Drone Carrier.
Yan Fei’s Gravity Bomb had a power ranging from 100 times to 1,000 times gravity, with even the lowest gravitational multiple surpassing the alien battleship’s 50 times. Additionally, they were available in substantial quantities, capable of launching 10,000 at most, or a minimum of 1,000. In terms of combat power, Yan Fei’s Drone Carrier definitely surpassed the alien battleship. However, the alien battleship also demonstrated strong combat power; had it not encountered Yan Fei’s 1,000 times gravity, it might not have failed.
After this battle, Yan Fei gained a preliminary understanding of his strength and established strong confidence, but he still didn’t dare to be arrogant. After all, the opponent didn’t know he had a strategic weapon like the 1,000 times Gravity Bomb, and the opponent was only a lone warship. If this civilization learned of his trump card and attacked in swarms, he would have no choice but to flee.
Nevertheless, Yan Fei’s first interstellar war finally ended. By leveraging the unique capabilities of the Drone Carrier, he achieved a surprise victory, completely destroying the alien battleship, marking a successful start. Then Yan Fei noticed that the Auxiliary Brain’s records comprehensively listed the merits obtained by the Drone Carrier in this operation:
Attacking within the Oort Cloud, defeated 256,546 enemies (1 Merit Point for every enemy defeated), gained 256,546 Merit Points; destroyed one Alien Civilization Level 3 Complete Reconnaissance Ship (gaining 1 trillion Merit Points for each Level 3 Reconnaissance Ship destroyed), earning 1 trillion Merit Points. This operation resulted in a total acquisition of 100,000,256,546 points, with an overall acquisition of 110,134,646,102 Merit Points.
After seeing this data summary, Yan Fei was somewhat taken aback. In his view, this alien battleship was strong enough, yet he hadn’t expected it to be merely a Level 3 Reconnaissance Ship of the alien civilization, which explained why it acted alone. However, even such a Level 3 Reconnaissance Ship could withstand the Drone Carrier’s most powerful energy cannon attack and even utilize Force Field Weapons to give the Drone Carrier significant troubles. If not for the 1,000 times Gravity Bomb displaying its power, Yan Fei might have been unable to deal with the opponent.
