Chapter 938: Chapter 653: Human Potential_3 Chapter 938: Chapter 653: Human Potential_3 “Alright, you've all heard.”
Duanmu Huai turned his head, looking at the people behind him.
“Prepare to set off. The rise and fall of humanity hinge on this battle. I wish you all the greatest of fortunes.”
“Yes!”
At the same time, the final operation began.
“Timetable initiated, T-minus 56 minutes and 10 seconds until the inner explosion of BM3!”
“I really don't understand.”
Gavi, with her arms crossed, stood to the side, staring dissatisfiedly at the battlefield before her.
“Why explode the bomb on the battlefield? Can't we just activate it and throw it over?”
“The mass of the Black Hole Bomb is too great, once activated, no one knows what effects it might cause.”
Duanmu Huai chuckled at Gavi's question, which was quite similar to what a player might think. Indeed, back in the game, many players had made the same complaint, and of course, there were those who presented well-reasoned rebuttals. But if Duanmu Huai were to give a reason, there was only one.
“In any case, this is the safest way to do it. Even if everything must be sacrificed, we must ensure final victory… Not a ninety-nine percent chance of hope, but a one hundred percent victory.”
“Report!”
However, before Duanmu Huai had finished, he was interrupted by Aikute.
“The 107th Reconnaissance Fleet has spotted the enemy! Approximately six billion in the detection range! They've almost covered the entire area, currently advancing at 12% the speed of light! 68 minutes and 20 seconds to contact!”
“Has it finally come?”
Hearing Aikute's report, Captain Tashiro on the other side of the screen straightened his cap.
“Come at us, then! Let's show them what humans are capable of when pushed to the edge!”
Well, who knows what the Cosmic Monsters would feel if they heard Captain Tashiro's words, but Duanmu Huai certainly appreciated that attitude.
Indeed, humans must not die in vain–if I'm going to die, I'll fight with all my might to take a chunk out of you. The future of the universe? The fate of the Milky Way? What does that have to do with me? I couldn't care less about a flood after I'm dead!
“T-minus 32 minutes to the explosion. All fleets are in position and ready to engage!”
“Approximately eight billion Cosmic Monsters detected, filling the entire area! 43 minutes to contact.”
“Sigh…”
Upon hearing the report again, the old captain sighed before turning to look at Duanmu Huai.
“Mr. Duanmu, do you believe in God?”
“Pfft, I think this isn't the time to discuss that…”
When asked by the old captain, Duanmu Huai's mouth twitched, barely stifling a laugh.
“Well, I do believe. Look, at such a close distance, these Cosmic Monsters just can't perform a space jump. This twelve-minute gap will decide our victory.”
“Uh…”
Hearing that, Duanmu Huai's face was lined with incredulity.
“Captain Tashiro, you're not just popping champagne at halftime here, you're about to finish it off before the match even starts. I think you'd better save your words…”
“Hahaha, anyway…”
“Report!”
Yet before the old captain could finish, a hurried report suddenly came through.
“Gravitational disturbance in Area 573D. The enemy is about to exit space jump!”
“What?!”
The old captain was taken aback by the report.
“How is that possible? A space jump at such close range–don't the Cosmic Monsters fear an accident?”
“Nonsense, we're here to hit their home. The Cosmic Monsters surely won't just wait to die,” Duanmu Huai muttered under his breath. It was another in-joke from the game, according to players on the Exelion, Captain Tashiro was a jinx; whenever he declared “This round is safe,” it would be the moment the opposition turned the tables, followed by Tashiro's stunned “How is this possible!”
Well… it seems it's true right now?
“Activate the Void Shield, aim at the target and open fire, crush all Cosmic Monsters attempting to attack the Black Hole Bomb!”
Duanmu Huai was not as flippant as Captain Tashiro. After all, he had already experienced this battle in the game and knew exactly how to handle it. Soon, under Duanmu Huai's command, the Tribunal's warship swiftly assembled, completely enveloping the Black Hole Bomb from every angle. Then, the Macro Cannons were lifted, and the Light Spears were engaged, aiming at the battlefield ahead.
Simultaneously, countless Cosmic Monsters materialized out of thin air, swarming towards the target en masse.
“Fire!”
