Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 815: Section 810 - Tug of War

The plan still can't keep up with the changes, and the distance of 200 meters from the black vortex cloud seems insufficient.

"Can you get closer to 100 meters? It's still too far!"

Qin Xiu, one of the three Space Series Ability Users, is a B-level Space Ability User. His rank level is not as high as the other two; the distance of 200 meters makes him a bit out of reach.

Ms. Asher, holding a magic wand, focused for a moment before reluctantly adding, "It's best to get to 50 meters; my sensing would be more accurate!"

Although the abilities of the Space Series are sharp, they are also greatly constrained by various factors. Especially for special existences like the black vortex cloud, which involves complex space series rules, it is not easy for human ability users to figure out what it is exactly.

In a certain sense, Chen Fei, who possesses "spatial branding," can also be considered a Space Series Ability User.

But the origin of his ability is not a secret. Besides being able to store and retrieve items, it has no other psi skill effects. To want to comprehend the mysteries of space series rules like the other three Space Series Ability Users is purely overreaching.

Moreover, his abilities are currently sealed by a Supernatural Ability Suppressant, leaving him to rely on his Metal Elemental Psychic Power.

"Understood, your positions need to be adjusted, stand firm."

As Chen Fei's voice fell, the ground underfoot slightly shook, and the hemispherical "sun room" with a diameter of thirty meters slowly moved, shifting from the bow to the side.

Trusting people to do their job without suspicion, the command center never interferes with how Chen Fei maneuvers the airship.

Fortunately, it is an unscientific psi skill; if it were industrial technology, such a complex structure would make engineers in this field feel like killing to silence it. Damn it! What's up with such complexity, what are you trying to do?

The No. 2 flagship approached the black vortex cloud again in a horizontal position. The densely packed firepower points on its side reminded people of the naval battles of the Great Sailing Era. The numerous artillery fires could deliver a fierce barrage, interrupting the number of monsters thrown by the black cloud, creating a brief period of vacuum.

Besides, Chen Fei had positioned the No. 2 flagship like this to speed away if necessary.

The ammunition reserves were limited. Don't be fooled by the current reckless actions. Once it's depleted, the combat power of the No. 2 flagship would revert to its basic state, just like Chen Fei.

Chen Fei reported after reading the measurements: "48 meters! This is the limit. Command Center, report ammunition reserves."

This distance is really close, caliber over 40mm ammunition can't be used anymore, relying solely on solid-core bullets for a hard hit, and occasionally white smoky phosphorus fire would fly over, blocked by either a repulsion shield or a magic shield.

The number of collisions suffered by the No. 2 flagship is increasing. Even knowing that unpredictable danger can occur at any moment, Chen Fei can only stay cautious with AI "Adam."

Not just him, all ability users on the airship were extremely cautious.

Behind these constantly appearing monsters were the unseen parasitic species, something the Blue Star Sovereignty members did not forget.

"Ammunition reserves, 'Element Annihilation Bomb' 12 pieces, accompanying rocket-propelled missiles 24 pieces, 600mm demolition bombs 120 pieces, 600mm armor-piercing shells 60 pieces, 152mm demolition bombs 480 pieces, 152mm armor-piercing shells 120 pieces, 152mm armor-breaking shells 120 pieces, 152mm fragment shells 120 pieces, 120mm armor-piercing shells..."

There were still plenty of ammunition not yet assigned to Chen Fei, but it was still a drop in the ocean compared to the thousands of monsters.

Even with the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee's preparation of space system alchemy storage artifacts, and adding Chen Fei's personal twining branch bracelet storage artifact, the capacity does not compare to the sealed "spatial branding."

Any alchemical storage artifacts involving light, dark, spiritual power, and space rules are expensive.

Given the Joint Defense Committee's capacity, acquiring these alchemical storage artifacts already reached the limit.

Those larger capacity space system alchemy storage artifacts were busy with interstellar quota trade between Cangqiong Star and Blue Star, generating millions or even tens of millions of Star Yuan in profit every second. They wouldn't have time to lend them to the Joint Defense Committee temporarily.

After the communicator finished reading the list of reserved ammunition, Chen Fei said straight away, "Give me all the ammunition, might be useful later."

From the approach within 10 kilometers of the black vortex cloud, his ammunition reserves had visibly decreased. Now, besides being unable to use large-caliber heavy weapon ammunition, it can only sustain for less than 5 minutes.

Of course, this calculation doesn't include exchangeable railgun weapon solid-core ammunition and directional energy (laser and particle beam, the latter being a heavy energy consumer) from energy points. If all were accounted, it could last half an hour more. But after half an hour, Chen Xiao'er's combat power would really bottom out.

The communicator asked, "Sent to the bridge or?"

The entire airship is Chen Fei's psi skill, ammunition transport doesn't require manual handling.

"Release in place, put it on the deck."

Chen Fei responded naturally. This ability saved several hundred manpower, modern firearms consume logistics, especially transport manpower.

Logistics personnel with storage artifacts released most of the ammunition on the deck as per the list, except for the "Element Annihilation Bomb," the paired rocket-propelled missiles were not withheld.

The "Element Annihilation Bomb," when paired with rocket-propelled missiles, became a complete "Dragon Slayer Missile," though the former was not just a warhead for the latter but could be used independently without reduced power. In fact, the destruction capability of the "Dragon Slayer Missile" comes from the "Element Annihilation Bomb," while the propulsion fuel contributes minimally.

The ammo boxes placed on the deck disappeared like sinking into water.

Once they truly entered the ship, they were simultaneously stripped of their packaging by invisible hands, then moved to their planned positions for standby.

Miyoshi Monk suddenly asked, "Why extract so much ammunition? It doesn't seem needed?"

"I have a bad feeling!"

Chen Fei had just finished speaking when he suddenly tilted, almost falling to the ground, but managed to stabilize himself after taking a few staggered steps.

Not just him, Miyoshi Xuesen and Mouri Misono in the bridge also got caught off guard, taking a heavy fall, then rolling like gourds.

The corridor outside the "sun room" erupted with exclamations and screams. Some people fell, and some were even thrown out.

Steel cables shot from the railings, retrieving those thrown into the air.

Even the three Space Series Ability Users inside the "sun room" weren't spared, falling hard with grimaces.

"Yiyah!"

The female communicator linked with Chen Fei let out a cute scream, then asked in panic, "Wh-what happened?"

"Distance to black cloud 30 meters! There's a gravity anomaly. 'Adam', full acceleration to escape!"

Chen Fei hurriedly used his psi skill to significantly increase the No. 2 flagship's total weight to counteract the dragging force while lowering altitude as another escape method.

Previously stable at 48 meters from the black vortex cloud, the sudden gravity change shifted the airship over ten meters.

The No. 2 flagship's magic array lit up abruptly, besides Chen Fei's psi skill "Gravity Adjustment Module (100%)," multiple "Gravity (1)" magic arrays illuminated. The stern emitted dazzling blue light, not just the propulsion magic array but also the jet engines burning fuel.

The originally horizontal airship quickly fled from the suddenly strengthened gravity, the internal structures groaning. Without Chen Fei's psi skill, the flagship might have disintegrated on the spot.

Not just the No. 2 flagship, even the constantly emerging monsters and grounded ones were forcibly pulled back, some deforming and twisting amid screeching, tearing apart until fragmented, blood and flesh flying across the sky like hell descending.

The airship's surroundings suddenly became clear with no flying monsters encircling.

"Outer armor with three-layer honeycomb bubble structure, launch ten thermobaric bombs, hit that thing hard!"

Chen Fei adjusted immediately, something surely targeted his airship. Just left with the vortex cloud wouldn't cause such an anomaly.

One thermobaric bomb after another detached from the ship, pulled by the gravity towards the black vortex cloud.

Even though the thermobaric bomb's shock waves would engulf the No. 2 flagship, he couldn't care less, better to commit fully than regret later.

"Your crow mouth is frighteningly accurate."

Miyoshi Monk looked like he took a punch, with a swollen face. As a supernatural power user, he gets hurt by collisions just the same, and a bullet would finish him.

"Jianghu is perilous, caution is crucial, Monk, you should be aware of this long ago?"

Chen Fei shifted his gaze to the unfortunate monk who must have hit the ground face first to look so miserable.

Mouri Misono, being a War Professional, not only had Battle Qi guarding her but was also agile, coming out unscathed without a hint of distress.

Monk retorted, "Carelessness! Trusting your psi skill too much, definitely makes one lose vigilance."

Boom!~

A shock wave from the seven o'clock direction hit, pushing the airship over ten meters.

Next came a brilliant red light illuminating the black vortex cloud with another shock wave.

The massive airship endured wave after wave of scorching air impact, those inside kept falling and standing, the exclamations continuing incessantly.
