Starting from the Planetary Governor

Chapter 227: Chapter 163, The Moment of Desperation is Here!_2

Moreover, after switching to advanced telekinesis control, his spiritual energy had increased slightly.

As of now, Gu Hang's total spiritual energy attribute had reached 20 points.

His attributes had become as follows:

[Hero: Gu Hang (Faction Leader), LV5, insufficient experience to level up]

[Physique: 10, Spiritual Energy: 20]

[Traits: Psychic Caster, Governor of Rage Owl Star, Enemy of the Storm]

[Talents: Protective Spiritual Energy, Advanced Telekinesis Control, Mind Manipulation]

This boost significantly enhanced Gu Hang's own strength. An increase of two points in spiritual energy meant that both the intensity of his spiritual energy and the power of his psychic spells more than doubled from before.

As a level five psychic who had put all points into spiritual energy, Gu Hang was already very strong. To use an interstellar warrior as an example, before the upgrade, he could barely handle a one-on-one fight against an average star warrior.

But now, crushing an old soldier wasn't a big problem for him, he could comfortably defeat a battle group warrior, and he could barely manage to fight against someone at the level of a squad champion like Matins.

The increase in his strength this time would be a great help in the upcoming battle to eliminate the Beastman Fleet General. Experience new tales on m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

As long as they could kill the Beastman Overlord, the encirclement laid out with the forces at hand would be meaningful, ensuring the total annihilation of those Green Skin Orcs here and effectively resolving the threat of this round of boarding tactics. There might still be Green Skins alive, scattered throughout the ships, but they would no longer be a threat.

If they failed to kill him...

Let's not even talk about it; it's either dying here or getting blown up in space along with the starship.

This is space maritime warfare; when a ship explodes, there's truly no way out.

All preparations had been made, and the battle came swiftly.

Kuangya arrived even faster than expected.

His assault team appeared at the southern end of the crossroads. After violently demolishing a door, a troop of Green Skins rushed forward.

The walkers and soldiers' firepower quickly filled the entire passage, and even if those five Green Skins were elite and capable fighters, they couldn't survive a bullet storm in such an environment with no room to dodge. Their crude iron armor shattered, they rushed forward a few dozen more steps with their strong and highly resistant bodies, but ultimately fell under the concentrated fire.

But what followed was not as easy to defeat.

Those were two parallel killing machines.

The machine guns on the walkers could still inflict effective damage on them, but were unable to quickly eliminate them. Similarly, the machine guns in the hands of the killing machines could penetrate the walkers' armor.

The killing machines advanced while firing. Under their cover, the Green Skins continued to press forward. Fierce exchanges of fire began, and casualties started to occur among the human soldiers.

A walker exploded, taking a few nearby soldiers with it, but at the same time, several rocket launchers took effect, overturning one of the riddled killing machines.

However, during this process, the Green Skin Orcs' ranks had advanced a considerable distance.

After one killing machine was toppled, the Green Skins didn't want to just rush forward half-heartedly either.

At least, Kuangya didn't have the patience for that.

He pushed aside the young Greens Skins that were rushing faster than him, shoved aside a fear-inducing iron can that still wanted to surge forward, and threw himself into the front line.

The heat gun on his shoulder immediately came into play, piercing through half the corridor. From the intense red heat line backward, three walkers were pierced with large holes, and further melting extended outward from the perforated parts, causing the three vehicles to fall silent. The soldiers standing in line with the heat line didn't survive either.

All of the rocket nests on his left arm were also emptied, and a series of violent explosions occurred on the humans' position.

The gunfire that had filled the passage instantly fell silent for a moment.

Seizing this opportunity, a mass of Green Skins began to surge forward rapidly.

Even though the human soldiers' firepower was soon restored, it didn't significantly slow their advance.

The Beastman Fleet General at the forefront bore most of the incoming fire with his massive and sturdy body. Machine gun fire from the walkers, even concentrated and intense, only literally created a 'metal storm' on him; the bullets were metallic, making contact like a gust of wind, merely slowing his pace.

But conversely, once the heat gun on his shoulder was recharged, and the rocket nests in his hands were automatically refilled, a round of his firepower would obliterate a section of the human position, silencing the gunfire and waiting for another wave of soldiers to come before the firepower could be restored.

Moreover, the firepower on the side of the Green Skin Orcs wasn't solely from Kuangya himself.

The Iron Cans of Terror, the weapons mounted on the killing cans, were equally ferocious in their firepower.

The orcs kept pushing forward relentlessly.

During this process, Green Skin Orcs fell constantly, and occasionally a killing can would be destroyed. However, the human side was paying an even heavier price.

As a frontline commander, Perbov's heart was bleeding.

Within his first battalion, the most precious two companies—the Abandoned Cave Company and Kodi Company—he had assigned to the most arduous tasks, to act as the first echelon in blocking the Green Skins.

But now, he had lost contact with both companies.

In just a few minutes, he had lost his most elite two companies.

Among these two companies, there were many of his 'fellow countrymen'.

Heartache, sadness, guilt... these emotions were swirling in his heart.

Yet, as a commander on the front line, he still had to be ruthless, sending the subordinates he held dear to a battlefield of extreme brutality.

They were all fine young men, yet they had spilled their blood so far away from their homeland.

But this was exactly in order to defend their homeland.

The first battalion had nearly half of its troops empty, it was time for the second battalion to take over.

Until new orders were issued, they must fight to the end, even if it meant dying at this position!

Soon, the Green Skins led by Kuangya reached the crossroads.

At this moment, soldiers who had been positioned early in the passageways to the east and west began to fire with all their might.

Beyond bullets, a large number of rocket launchers, as infantry firepower, were fiercely launched.

The two battalion commanders from the 22nd Regiment, although they couldn't see the fierce battle around the corner passageway, were extremely anxious when they saw countless bullets flying across the intersection and heard the orders over their listening devices, realizing that two of the most elite companies had been wiped out in minutes.

They were no longer thinking about life and death.

They were considering that at the first moment of engagement, they had to fire all the firepower at hand as forcefully as possible.

If they did not do so, thinking of saving the key weapons for a critical moment, they would likely not have the opportunity to fire them.

Plainly put, it was some rocket launchers.

But the Green Skins were not fools.

Seeing such a well-defended front and another crossroads ahead, how could they not be cautious?

Kuangya took a moment here to continue attracting fire but also waited for more orc mechas to arrive. According to his strategy, he would split off some forces to strike into both flanks, at least holding the ground until the main force had passed through.

The infantry on both sides also made a resolute decision, launching all the rocket launchers they had almost in one go.

Amidst the powerful bombing, every commander heard a new order in their ears:

"All units charge!"

This was certainly not an easy order to accept, but whether they were soldiers of the Wind-Extinguishing Brigade or the infantry of the 22nd Regiment, all moved at the command of officers, political instructors, and duty officers.

"The moment of desperation has come! Follow me on the charge!" the officers, political instructors, and duty officers led the way, and the soldiers followed close behind.

While firing, they charged toward the center of the crossroads!
