Chapter 1219: Chapter 1083: Sudden Incident

There are quite a few Imperial warships with invisibility capability.

Including the Gao Fang warship 3344 under Qu Jianlei’s command, which has some stealth features.

But there aren’t many that can truly be called stealth warships.

Like the two company-level warships revealing themselves now, even the appearance is different from ordinary warships, and their coating is distinct.

Granny Jia couldn’t help but be surprised upon seeing this, ”Wandering Soul class warships, they truly are taking us seriously!”

These warships are known as battlefield wandering souls, not responsible for strong attacks, and not even considered main battleships.

Their attack power is strong, stealth capability is high, and more often they execute assassins’ missions, striking and leaving swiftly.

However, if forced into a confrontation, their combat power is certainly stronger than small attack ships.

”You have ten seconds to make a decision,” the opposite side spoke coldly.

”If you don’t shut down the engine and come out for inspection, we will take forceful measures. You will bear all consequences.”

As soon as he finished speaking, an invisible warship fired a shot, passing one kilometer away from the business starship.

This is one kilometer in space, equivalent to a bullet grazing the scalp on ground.

”They really don’t know their place,” Nutrient Injection murmured, then looked at the others.

”If you all trust me, let’s see what they plan to do... how do you intend to choose?”

”Let’s take a look then,” rare support came from Paranoid first, even though he usually liked to argue with Nutrient Injection.

But at the same time he emphasized, ”If I find something unsuitable, I might intervene at any time.”

”I don’t care,” Nutrient Injection replied without hesitation, seemingly indifferent to the situation.

However, as the starship stopped, Qu Jianlei’s expression turned serious as he spoke, ”Be careful, don’t lower the protective shield!”

Before he finished speaking, Paranoid, Granny Jia, and Nutrient Injection stood up simultaneously and looked seriously at the starship’s exterior.

Qu Jianlei couldn’t help but glance at Nutrient Injection in surprise—this guy’s perception ability is truly unique.

Even Mu Yu didn’t notice anything amiss, yet this guy, newly advanced to Supreme, detected the anomaly.

The next instant, a company-level warship emitted a blue beam, striking the business starship accurately.

This attack wasn’t bad, but the business starship’s protective shield is extremely strong, far surpassing its attack power.

The starship trembled fiercely while the opponent coldly snorted, ”Stop playing tricks, come out willingly!”

Qu Jianlei chuckled at the remark, ”You’re merely a Supreme, do you really think you can act freely in space?”

”I can indeed act freely,” the opponent replied lazily, ”I have more starships than you.”

”So, is it really Si Xi?” Qu Jianlei sighed lightly, ”I’ve always wanted to ask you, how did I offend you?”

”Want to leave any evidence?” the opponent snorted indifferently, ”Attack!”

”Run!” Qu Jianlei issued another command.

However, the command was still slightly delayed, and another invisible warship fired a blue beam, hitting the business starship directly.

This strike still didn’t break the defense but already unveiled the opponent’s malice evidently.

The business starship drew a strange arc and then suddenly accelerated, speeding toward the rear sideways.

”Dare to evade!” The opponent was briefly furious, ”Launch a full attack, don’t hold back!”

At this moment, someone advised, ”Sir, these starships seem solid but are easy to destroy.”

The business starship’s defense is not low, but it lacks independent defense units internally.

Meaning once destroyed, it could result in massive casualties, leading to significant responsibility.

After all, the opponent possesses noble registered tool ships, military inspections are permitted, unjustified attacks could cause major implications.

The previous speaker sneered, ”They have to return to face consequences first.”

He paused and solemnly stated, ”Alright, the opposition likely has more than one Supreme, it’s impossible to kill them all.”

This statement sounds reasonable on the surface, but it’s terrifying upon closer scrutiny.

Suggesting he plans to seize their Supreme without any intention of releasing them back to Qingyuan, otherwise, how could news not travel back?

”Attack!” Five starships fired simultaneously, even the customs enforcement warship joined in.

The customs enforcement ship is actually assisting military inspection, and there are military personnel aboard.

They would rather not fire, but evidently, caught in such a situation, their own opinions are irrelevant.

Should they dare to refuse, the military might actually arrange for them to ”suffer accidental fatal attacks.”

Despite their unwillingness, they’ve already targeted nobles, so what else wouldn’t they dare to do?

The key is Si Xi’s ruthless tactics; everyone understands he can do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

The most prudent choice now is to go with the flow, having paid the price for allegiance, full retreat should be possible.

Facing simultaneous fire from five starships, the business starship exhibited extremely adept evasion techniques, escaping desperately under various attacks.

With Little Lake’s control, most of the attacks were evaded, but some less powerful attacks had to be endured.

In the end, the attack happened too suddenly.

Qu Jianlei and his team never imagined that after expressing willingness to cooperate, the inspecting warship would brazenly open fire.

The main issue was that the distance between both sides was too close, and the opponent had a favorable position. It was truly impossible to evade all the artillery fire.

The starship fled desperately amid various attacks, alarms blaring incessantly inside, and the energy of the protective shield was plummeting.

Qu Jianlei’s face darkened as he spoke to the Nutrient Injection, ”If we take these guys out, can you handle the aftermath?”

This time he was genuinely furious; the opponent’s attack clearly intended to leave no way out for them!

It’s easy to imagine that if they managed to escape back to Qingyuan Star, Si Xi would definitely face severe consequences.

Even if they didn’t go through official channels to complain, considering their previously displayed strong capabilities, it wouldn’t be hard to eliminate the guy privately.

Knowing this outcome, the opponent still chose to act brazenly, meaning they had already deemed them as dead!

Qu Jianlei couldn’t swallow this anger; regardless of whether the Nutrient Injection could handle the aftermath, he would definitely retaliate.

However, there were still Qinghu’s team of four on Qingyuan Star, and two large computer arrays worth billions, which he had to consider.

If the Nutrient Injection couldn’t make a promise, he would need to devise a plan for revenge.

However, the Nutrient Injection also looked grim, and gritted his teeth as he declared.

”Just go ahead, I’ll take care of everything afterward!”

Clearly, he too was infuriated—the opponent came with a mindset to wipe them out, with no regard for his life.

The Paranoid spoke up, ”Should we shift to those two starships first, then return with the attack ship?”

These were already basic operations for the team, requiring no further plan design.

”Let’s run for a while,” Qu Jianlei answered with a dark expression, ”It’s not easy for this starship to disengage.”

The Business Starship, while small and not particularly fast, mainly relied on its protective shield for defense.

And the opponent’s five starships, with better mobility and flexibility, had superior attack power and defense.

Especially since the opponent had already taken a good position when initiating the attack, it was convenient for pursuit.

In such a passive situation, escaping farther required some luck.

However, Qu Jianlei couldn’t just passively choose escape.

He made a deployment, ”Fire tracer bullets back, warning the opponent to cease pursuit or bear all the consequences.”

Granny Jia replied with astonishment, ”Tracer bullets?”

These things have practically no effect in space battles, right?

Qu Jianlei responded casually, ”It’s just a warning, and the weaponry on this starship... is really inadequate.”

The Business Starship had onboard weapons but they were just for self-defense, barely usable, and its attack power was far inferior to that of a small attack ship.

However, Qu Jianlei’s arrangement to fire tracer bullets mainly aimed to let Little Lake hack into the opponent’s control system.

Previously, Little Lake had to interfere with the opponent’s protective shield in order to effectively reduce the risk of exposure when hacking the system.

But as computing power increased, it too had grown significantly.

Currently, the starship had only two Anti-Smuggling Terminals for computing power, still insufficient, but adequate.

The opponent’s defense systems were slightly above those of an ordinary warship, particularly the two Stealth Warships, which paid more attention to system protection.

However, after quietly pushing for over ten minutes, it silently breached the opponent’s defense.

After invading the control system, it made no visible moves but merely stealthily transmitted the opponent’s attack plans back.

The Big Head Butterfly spun in Qu Jianlei’s mind, ”They really are elite, their attack plans are flawless, and coordination is finely tuned.”

Qu Jianlei heard and felt slightly at ease, ”But it’s completely inadequate, isn’t it?”

”Of course,” Big Head Butterfly responded without hesitation, ”unfortunately, it’s only useful for evasion.”

The Business Starship was still too close to Qingyuan, and although the opponent made the first move to kill, Qu Jianlei still had to consider preventing Little Lake’s exposure.

Because the opponents had already shed all pretense; daring a surprise attack, they would naturally have no qualms about fabricating a counter-narrative.

In the end, they could even use the artificial intelligence to make a fuss, claiming innocence.

Qu Jianlei truly had no expectations for these people’s integrity, and he did not want to bring even the slightest risk.

As long as he could ”outguess the opponent’s strategy,” ensuring the Business Starship escaped far enough was fine.

With Little Lake’s successful hacking, the Business Starship’s movements appeared increasingly erratic and elusive.

At the same time, the probability of the starship being hit dropped significantly, exhibiting multiple unreasonable dodging trajectories.

However, seemingly nonsensical evasions repeatedly avoided incoming attacks at critical moments.

As time passed, despite the protective shield’s rapidly dwindling strength, it unexpectedly started a slow recovery.
