“Yes! Of course!” Nangong Ling responded without hesitation.
Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, “Alright, we can exchange some for you later, but it will be at the black market price. Because the quantity we can provide is not obtainable outside at regular rates.”
Over the years, they had been undertaking various tasks and gaining experience, so the accumulation of Douluo Coins was quite substantial for Lan Xuanyu and his team. However, with their increasing focus on real combat and limited interest in the Douluo World, the utility of Douluo Coins was not significant. After all, they didn’t have the intention of establishing a fleet in the Douluo World; their goal was to own a powerful warship in reality.
“No problem!” Nangong Ling readily agreed. As the saying goes, seeing is believing. They had hired “big shots” before, but many of them were just deceivers, taking a lot of money but achieving little. However, these “big shots” before them had genuine strength!
Previously, the first girl who invaded their group, a seven-ring Soul Saint and a Two-Word Battle Armor Master, was exceptionally powerful. Despite their numbers, they had no chance of resisting her. Now, with their current captain, who must be even more formidable, they might have truly found a powerful ally. It was even possible that they were members of the War God Temple.
Therefore, Nangong Ling immediately made the decision, which was the result of their previous discussions. At the same time, she had her own little plan; now that they all agreed to cooperate, when returning the Star Palace, there shouldn’t be any issues.
For Lan Xuanyu, this was just a potential avenue for them to earn money. Perhaps because nearby warships had been lured and eliminated, the following period passed smoothly. Soon, they had spent over thirty-six hours in the Chaos Star Field, and more than half of the assessment time had elapsed. Everyone had also rested to their optimal conditions.
Naturally, Lan Xuanyu wouldn’t conservatively spend time. With the teachers watching outside, if they wanted more members of the Star Wars Experimental Class to enter the Inner Court, they needed to perform better.
Now that the basic tasks were mostly completed, the next step was to demonstrate their strength. Under Lan Xuanyu’s command, the Star Palace warship and the Star Wars Experimental Class warship continued to penetrate deeper into the Chaos Star Field. The further they went, the higher the chance of encountering enemies.
On the Star Palace warship, Lan Xuanyu handed over the command to Qian Lei. Although Qian Lei wasn’t the most adept at controlling warships, his spiritual power was high, making him suitable for pilotng the Star Palace warship.
Lan Xuanyu returned to the Star Wars Experimental Class warship, preparing to employ a new tactic they had attempted before.
The Star Palace warship and the Star Wars Experimental Class warship maintained a certain distance from each other, forming a defensive formation. Meanwhile, Lan Xuanyu led a group of companions and quietly piloted the Skywing fighters away.
This time, only the strongest individuals from the class participated—Lan Xuanyu’s team, excluding Qian Lei, all six members, along with the three members of Bing Tianliang’s squad. Additionally, three other companions who excelled in piloting Skywing fighters were included.
In total, twelve Skywing fighters flew out. The battle plan was to use the Skywing fighters to break through the warships. This was a combat style that truly showcased their strength.
Typically, soul fighters faced challenges when engaging warships in combat, unless they had an absolute numerical advantage. Otherwise, it was challenging to breach the warships’ protective shields. Moreover, their defenses couldn’t withstand the warships’ firepower. Even the secondary guns of a meteor-class warship could easily destroy interstellar fighters. Not to mention, warships had various means to deal with fighters, such as capture nets and homing missiles.
In real combat, very few space fleets carried a large number of space fighters. Most fleets only had a small number of elite fighters.
The twelve Skywing fighters were in a formation, led by Lan Xuanyu, and flew towards the depths of the Chaos Star Field. It had to be admitted that flying in the asteroid belt was much easier for fighters than warships—they navigated through the asteroid belt like fish swimming through water.
In a short time, they found their first target: an Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship that seemed to be conducting a scouting mission. Radar waves quickly detected their approach.
Warships capable of deep-space operations were usually experienced in combat. The Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship immediately released a large number of star mines around itself.
This was one of the methods warships used to deal with fighters.
Twelve Skywing fighters instantly spread out like a shower of flowers. Almost simultaneously accelerating, they flew towards the Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship.
Soul cannons burst forth from the Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship, covering their direction.
However, Lan Xuanyu’s team had been trained by Tang Zhenhua to become top-notch pilots; they weren’t bothered by these energy beams. Rolling, evading, and easily avoiding the attacks.
Lan Xuanyu’s Skywing fighter, the fastest in flight, quickly approached the area with star mines. Just as the star mines were about to be triggered, he suddenly changed direction and ascended. However, it seemed like he had made a mistake in his maneuvering, and the surrounding star mines were still attracted and quickly chased after him.
Yet, he had drawn away these star mines, creating an open space in the area. Meanwhile, the other eleven Skywing fighters concentrated their firepower and launched an attack on the Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship.
The commander of the reconnaissance ship was also skilled, manipulating the ship to retreat rapidly and taking advantage of the cover of nearby asteroids to avoid the attacks. Simultaneously, the protective shield was fully activated.
Twelve interstellar fighters typically posed no threat to a Meteor-class warship, but for an Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship, they were a deadly threat. After all, the Asteroid-class ship had a smaller volume and limited energy reserves. If it were entangled by the enemy, the fighters had a chance to win.
Therefore, this reconnaissance ship had no intention of engaging in direct combat. After releasing the star mines, it had already begun to retreat. It wasn’t alone in coming to the Chaos Star Field; it had companions!
From the perspective of the reconnaissance ship, the Skywing fighter that had been tracked by star mines was probably doomed. The opponent likely intended to sacrifice one fighter to divert the star mines, creating an opportunity for their companions. This decisive action made the Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship highly vigilant because, with the star mines diverted, they wouldn’t have enough time to escape the battle.
Under tension, the ship continuously fired at the approaching fighters, attempting to block them.
Unfortunately, what they didn’t know was that the Skywing fighter drawing away the star mines was piloted by Lan Xuanyu, the captain of the Star Wars Experimental Class and one of the top-ranked god-level pilots in the Federation.
Could a Skywing fighter piloted by a god-level pilot be destroyed by star mines? Wasn’t that just wishful thinking?
Lan Xuanyu’s Skywing fighter changed direction and soared high. Thanks to the cover of the asteroid belt, the Asteroid-class reconnaissance ship could no longer track its position, let alone pay attention to it.
