While Chen Jing was lingering at the cave entrance, Vilas faced a rare moment of despair. Approximately thirty minutes earlier, her fleet had been attacked. Under the glare of light, two frigates instantly disintegrated. As a member of the joint patrol, she witnessed the terrified expressions on the faces of her own initial ship.
As it turned out, if this warship, which was considered to be cowardly, had not persisted in leading itself away from the main ship, it would have died there.
And this battleship had not told her what was attacking her until this moment: "We must run quickly, otherwise it will be too late to save us." It was the first time that Vilas saw such a panicked look on the face of this battleship that had followed the marshal in battles across the country.
"We still have five battleships here, including the surviving high-level connectors. Even if it is Lih who comes, we are still capable of fighting. How can we flee without even seeing the shadow of the enemy!?" Vilas was a little angry. The performance of this ship just now made him embarrassed.
AS1 suddenly laughed: "Are there ether worms in your brains? That's Aqui! Oh my God, after he dies, I really can't think of anyone else who can fight against him! Run quickly!" The battleship slowly turned.
"Based on the intensity estimate just now, He should be very far away from here, possibly still in the area controlled by Lih. I hope this is just a whim." AS1 whispered to himself to comfort himself.
Vilas was a little confused: "Who is Aqui?"
"King Lih, let me tell you straight up, the Marshal suppressed Him with a special method back then, and despite everything he did, he still couldn't hurt Him. And this so-called great fleet before you has no way of resisting Him!"
So powerful? Vilas was a little incredulous. "But why? Aren't we at peace? Why would He attack us? You just said He might still be in the area controlled by Lih. How is that possible? How could He attack us from thousands of light years away? Did He know we were coming thousands of years ago?"
"You're so adorable," AS1 exclaimed, accelerating. "Just because humans can't do it doesn't mean He can't. For those powerful enough to navigate the outer layers, thousands of light years will never be an obstacle." As they spoke, another battleship was destroyed.
"Can we fight back?" Vilas asked tentatively. After all, that was a monster that could accurately strike warships beyond the limits of human navigation.
"If the committee's main fleet were all here, I think we could give it a try, but these... forget it. It would be good enough if we could escape."
"Will we be attacked first if we run away?"
AS1 was stunned for a moment, then shook his head. "You might not believe this, but to Him, this is just a game, and the escape of the prey is what brings Him the most joy. It all depends on luck. If we're lucky, we'll survive."
Vilas stared into the distance in a trance: "Can humans really resist such a terrifying force?" Without even knowing where the enemy was, more than half of his fleet had been damaged, and the defense system that humans were proud of couldn't even slow down those light balls.
"We did it once, but now, I don't know." AS1 sighed, and then the entire ship entered the outer layer and began to jump.
Suddenly, the battleship trembled, and AS1's expression was uglier than death: "It's over! He is here!"
Even with layers of armor, Vilas still felt that he saw Him, between half reality and half illusion, like clouds and mist, difficult to see clearly, complex lines flying on His surface. In a brief moment, Vilas saw a human form.
This must be an illusion, right? How could there be a human being in the strongest Li Hyuk?
Cold sweat streamed down his face as Willas looked at him. He also looked at Willas: "Human, you are very brave." Ethereal voices came from all directions.
Vilas mustered up his courage: "You're violating the pit stop protocol by doing this!"
"Oh... there is such a thing." His attitude was obvious, he didn't care at all.
Willas was stunned. "Are you trying to start another war?" Suddenly, a hand was placed on her shoulder. "No, no, no, I'm just too bored. A human took me to a human city once before, and I remember there was something there called... uh... yes, ice cream. I want to try it again."
"Huh?" You just destroyed an entire human fleet for free snacks! The silver-haired woman behind him smiled and nodded. "Hunting and gourmet food—these are the only two hobbies I have."
"Why me?" Vilas knew that he was the only human still alive among his companions.
Aqui smiled and said, "Because you are lucky." She adjusted her hair and said, "I just killed randomly for a long time, and you are the luckiest one who is still alive." The battleship obviously has a constant temperature system, but Vilas still felt bitingly cold.
"Alright, lucky human, take me to eat delicious food! If I'm satisfied, you'll be rewarded accordingly. Of course, you can also try to attack me and bring other humans to attack me, but you have to know..." A tiny ball of light floated in her palm: "My patience is limited. If I'm extremely unhappy, I might start a new war. After all, I'm the king."
"Hey, AS1." Suddenly, Aqui greeted the battleship. "Since it's you, you should know what kind of layout I like, right? I'm a little tired of arranging the room."
AS1 nodded: "I understand. Please move." Then he followed Agui out of the command room.
Willas sat down on the ground, as if she had lost all her strength, leaning against the wall and sobbing softly.
A maintenance robot walked in and pulled a pack of tissues from its abdomen. "You're determined to be the pride of your family, aren't you? Now you've spoken directly with some of the strongest people in Lihe. Before this, only one human had ever spoken to Agui, and he was the one who gave Agui the name."
"Marshal?" That was Vilas' idol.
The maintenance robot controlled by AS1 clumsily wiped her tears. "You could say he's the most formidable enemy, but enemies and friends are not incompatible. His knowledge and power are what we need, so there's no reason to refuse a request as simple as food. He's both a formidable opponent and an excellent teacher. This is the relationship between humans and Lih."
"One day, I will avenge them and defeat Him!" Aqui heard the tearful oath.
He smiled contemptuously: "Not overestimating one's own capabilities is also a lovely aspect of human beings."
AS1 rolled his eyes: "What on earth are you going to do?" It was obvious that the two had known each other for a long time, and AS1 was not as afraid of Aqui as he showed in front of Vilas.
Aguiyi smiled and said, "Guess."
"Guess whether I guess or not."
