Chapter 168 The intelligence is outdated? You're fucking kidding me!
After several days of effort, the Huaye Allied Forces finally broke through eight lines of defense.
However, the fleet's formation was somewhat peculiar.
The vanguard and rearguard of the entire fleet were filled with warships from various vassal spacefaring civilizations, their hulls riddled with damage, clearly indicating they had been through a major battle.
The true main force of the Heavenly Palace was tucked away in the center of the formation, but the total number of warships was not as many as at the beginning.
At this moment, the atmosphere was oppressive in the command center of a vassal civilization's flagship.
"Commander-in-Chief! This battle cannot continue like this!"
A general in black slammed his fist on the table, his voice filled with rage.
"We haven't even seen a glimpse of the angels, and we've already lost nearly 70% of our forces just by triggering the defensive traps. If this continues, we'll be completely wiped out!"
He grew increasingly furious, gritting his teeth as he said, "That damned Hua Ye! He promised to form a coalition, but he used us as cannon fodder to clear mines for his troops!"
"Watch your words!" The commander-in-chief's expression changed drastically, and he quickly raised his hand to stop him. "Hua Yewang's men are all over the ships, you mustn't..."
Before the words were finished, a white figure suddenly appeared in the room.
A flash of cold light, and warm blood splattered across half the table.
The black-clad general's angry curses abruptly ceased, his head rolled to the ground, his body swayed, and he collapsed heavily to the ground.
"Pooh."
A male angel kicked the headless corpse aside, wiped his longsword, and looked at it with disgust and disdain.
"Where did this nobody come from, daring to disrespect Prince Hua Ye?"
He glanced sideways at the pale-faced commander-in-chief, a mocking smile playing on his lips: "What, you have ideas too?"
Cold sweat instantly beaded on the commander-in-chief's forehead. Without the slightest hesitation, he knelt down with a thud, his voice filled with fear and gratitude:
"Many thanks to Your Excellency for eliminating the traitor! My lack of discipline nearly led to a grave mistake. My subordinate and our civilization are deeply grateful!"
This obsequious demeanor surprised Tian Zha for a moment, then he sneered, "You're smart enough to know your place. Remember, here you only need to obey King Hua Ye's orders, and don't have any other ideas."
"Yes, yes, I will remember." The commander-in-chief nodded repeatedly, and only slowly stood up after the other party had completely left.
He glanced down at the corpse on the ground, his eyes devoid of any emotion, and simply sighed softly: "Someone, throw the body out."
Two guards quickly stepped forward, silently lifted the body, and retreated.
The commander-in-chief turned around, looked at the starry sky outside the warship, and his eyes slowly became burning.
So what if we lose 70%? So what if we lose a trusted general?
If they win this battle, their civilization can step over the bones of angels and leap into the age of godhood.
And he, the commander-in-chief, will also be granted immortality by Hua Ye.
At that time, all these sacrifices and humiliations will become worthwhile.
Everything is for the sake of civilization.
The devastating losses suffered by the vassal fleet were merely the tip of the iceberg for the entire allied forces.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the command room of the Tiangong, located at the core of the formation, was even more oppressive and volatile than it had been on the warship earlier.
Hua Ye sat on the sofa, his face full of black lines.
These past few days, breaking through the angels' defenses has truly broadened his horizons.
In the otherwise clear starry sky, acid rain with strong corrosive properties can fall out of nowhere.
Even ordinary super soldiers can hardly withstand this acid rain; it can even corrode countless holes in warships, rendering them unusable over time.
And those perfectly good shipping lanes, as you go along, they turn into anti-gravity turbulence.
The warships were tossed about and swayed, and in just a short time, many of them were destroyed by collisions.
Even more outrageous is that wind, fire, thunder, and lightning can inexplicably appear in this vacuum of starry sky.
He didn't even know how these things appeared, let alone how to deal with them using black holes.
In just a few days, his army suffered nearly 40% losses, while Li Yao's side did not send out a single person.
In short, these various traps have absolutely nothing to do with the intelligence provided by Snow.
Oh no, the first line of star defense is correct.
He grew angrier the more he thought about it, slammed his hand on the armrest, and roared at Snow, who was standing in front of the star map, "Snow! Explain yourself! Are you deliberately trying to trick me?"
Snow had his back to him, his gaze sweeping haphazardly across the star map, and his expression was far from pleasant.
When the first problem arose, he realized that the intelligence was incorrect and likely outdated.
All that intelligence came from Ruoning's memories. Ruoning had been gone from Tiancheng for two thousand years. It was obvious that the angels modified the defense line after she retired, and the mastermind behind this was likely Li Yao.
But he couldn't explain this at all. He couldn't very well tell Hua Ye that this intelligence was extracted from Ruoning's encrypted memories and was an old almanac from many years ago.
In that case, Hua Ye would immediately turn hostile.
He could only suppress his frustration, turn around, and say in a somewhat unnatural tone, "King Hua Ye, the source of the intelligence is indeed not the problem, it's just that its timeliness may be a bit poor."
"You mean the intelligence is outdated?!"
Hua Ye nearly jumped off the sofa, pointing his finger at him and yelling, "Are you fucking messing with me?! Is this how Karl puts you in charge?"
Snow pursed his lips, feeling somewhat irritated.
Who could have predicted that Li Yao, a newly appointed Angel King, would completely overhaul the 19th Defense Line, which had been in use for thousands of years, so soon after taking office?
He could only bite the bullet and say, "With war imminent, it's common for the enemy to make temporary changes to their defenses, but I didn't expect the extent of their changes to be so great."
He then reassured Hua Ye, "Next, I will combine the existing data to re-analyze the situation and try to avoid any pitfalls."
Hua Ye roared, "What kind of divination is this! By the time you finish your divination, almost all of my men will be dead!"
At that moment, he felt like killing Snow.
This is a war, and you give me this intelligence error? I thought you had some real strength.
He couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, Karl's men are all trash like you. No wonder you've been hiding in the River Styx like a coward, too afraid to come out."
Snow immediately objected upon hearing this. "You can insult me all you want, but you even insult my Butt God? You've got some nerve!"
He said in a deep voice, "Hua Ye, how dare you! You need to know your place."
"Oh ho! You dare to speak to me like that?" Hua Ye retorted angrily.
Sumali and the others beside him also looked at Snow with hostility, waiting for Hua Ye Wang's order to rush up and kill this arrogant man.
Snow, unfazed by the situation, retorted, "My god Karl has bestowed a few favors upon you, and you've become so arrogant."
Then, he said something that broke Hua Ye's defenses: "Heh, someone like you is only fit to smell my God Karl's farts."
"grass!"
Hua Ye suddenly stood up, about to make a move, when he suddenly heard a panicked voice in his ear:
"Your Majesty! Urgent military intelligence! The fleet's flank has been suddenly attacked by angels!"
