But this was just the beginning, a mere appetizer.

Twenty thousand aggregated Particle-interference Bombs’ explosion shockwaves combined with a multiplication factor, which resulted in exponential damage output.

Harrison Clark didn’t dare waste any more time, so he turned away without looking and continued to speed toward the distance.

He started his second turn, drawing a long arc in the air.

He was lowering his altitude.

This was the first agglutinated explosion, so there were no parameters to reference, and he underestimated the bomb’s coverage.

The combat system’s alarm indicated that the blast radius of the core area would reach at least 50,000 kilometers.

Even if he flew away over 10,000 kilometers, he wouldn’t escape, and the Divine Eagle Armor might not withstand it.

He needed the Spherical Battleship to act as a shield for him.

After four consecutive accelerations from the Pseudo-Curvature Engine, Medium Engine, Repulsion Field, and Neutron Gatling Counter-Thrust, he quickly reached one-sixth the speed of light, 50,000 kilometers per second.

0.5 seconds later, Harrison Clark successfully crossed 25,000 kilometers and drew a beautiful curve, falling below the shadow plane tangent to the explosion point and Spherical Warship surface.

If the Spherical Battleship could withstand the Particle-interference Bomb, the explosion shockwave would sweep just behind him.

If it couldn’t, they would all die together with the shattered pieces.

Harrison Clark did not regret this, as it was the outcome he had wanted most.

On the far side, Needham Brown and the intercepting forces had also reached a safe position with 8,000 Eight-legged Beetles.

Harrison Clark was a bit conflicted, and he thought perhaps he should have let Needham Brown and the others remain in place, entangled with the Eight-legged Beetles.

I am not fit to be a commander. I can’t be as ruthless as his mother – not to others, to myself, or to her.

If it was her, she would sacrifice anyone, including herself and me, as long as it was beneficial to the war situation.

Down below, a major explosion occurred.

He continued to distance himself while looking back.

Through a straight-line distance of 20,000 kilometers, a massive white-yellow Light Sphere rapidly spread out, expanding to 50,000 kilometers at the speed of light.

After the light ring reached 50,000 kilometers, it was a mixture of multicolored flames and red clouds, forming the shape of a burning sun and continuing to spread at the speed of light, eventually becoming an artificial “Fierce Sun” with a radius of 200,000 kilometers.

Space in the distance was illuminated as if in broad daylight, giving Harrison Clark the illusion that he was approaching the sun.

In the center of the artificial Fierce Sun, there was a pitch-black sphere with a diameter of 3,000 kilometers, making the image look like a solar eclipse.

That was the invaders’ Spherical Battleship.

Harrison Clark began to pray in his heart.

Shatter!

Shatter for me!

The prayer failed.

About a second later, the rolling flames spread out in a diagonal direction from below, the “Fierce Sun” now looking like a watermelon with a cone-shaped gap removed from its center.

Harrison Clark and Needham Brown were in the gap in the “Fierce Sun.”

This scene indicated that the Aggregated Particle Bomb had reached its maximum pressure on the enemy ship.

However, the pitch-black sphere didn’t break, it merely shifted position violently under the horrific explosion shockwave, rapidly shooting upwards like a lead ball thrown into a trampoline after being compressed to the bottom.

The Spherical flagship reached one-tenth the speed of light in an instant, then one-eighth, and finally one-fourth, successively surpassing the positions of Needham Brown and others and Harrison Clark before continuing to fly into the dark depths of space.

What followed was the energy and particle shockwaves triggered by the massive explosion, a Matter-Energy Storm resembling the solar radiation zone that engulfed Harrison Clark and the others.

Fortunately, the Spherical Battleship acted as a meat shield, consuming more than 99.9% of the impact; what came was not the white-yellow Light Sphere in the core area but a weaker Matter-Energy Storm, equivalent to the energy intensity a few million kilometers away from the sun’s surface. Harrison Clark was more than 48,000 kilometers away from the explosion center, and the Divine Eagle Armor Ultimate Form easily withstood it.

But he wasn’t happy about it, as it meant that the Eight-legged Beetles still fighting with Needham Brown and the others could also withstand the pressure.

As expected, he heard Needham Brown’s furious voice through the communicator.

“What are you doing? Why did you have us retreat? We’re no match for these monsters. Why didn’t you just let us stay put and die together?”

Harrison Clark’s mouth twitched, his face stiff, but his brain quickly refuted, “I just asked you if you could hold on, and you said I talked nonsense. So, I thought you could win.”

Needham Brown:”???”

Needham Brown was enraged but powerless to argue.

He was already prepared to die in battle, so his words were just to reassure Harrison Clark.

He had been stubborn at the time, not expecting to live for a few more seconds before being teased again at the moment of death.

He couldn’t be bothered to deal with Harrison Clark anymore, so he turned his grief and indignation into motivation and temporarily suppressed the Eight-legged Beetles, which were as powerful as Harrison Clark had been, alongside a few dozen others.

As for Harrison Clark, he ignored the situation while speeding forward with a heavy heart in the Matter-Energy storm.

Since the instinct-driven Eight-legged monsters could still counterattack, it meant that the Compound-Eyed Observer had not been affected by the previous explosion.

They could still remotely control the battle.

Harrison Clark’s speed increased, reaching one-fifth the speed of light when he left the Matter-Energy storm..
