er majority of the audience was hoping to see brilliant fireworks bloom amid the stars.

“Aim for target no.
1 to fire.”

Xia Fei had immediately begun his counter-attack the moment the enemies’ missiles were deployed.

Unfortunately, he was only able to fire four missiles, and the difference in power between the two sides was immense.

“Quickly prepare your escape pod! There’s no way we can survive a simultaneous assault from thirty-six missiles.
Even if you have the energy-shield boosters, there’s no way you’ll be able to take it all!” Phantom nervously yelled.

Alas, Xia Fei did not respond.
His eyes were as calm as still water.

“Missiles loading complete,” prompted the cool female voice of the onboard smart computer.

“Fire.”

The second volley of missiles was sent out.
Xia Fei seemed to have thrown caution to the wind, putting his life on the line as he sought to bring down several of his enemies with him.

Unfortunately, as Xia Fei was launching his attack, the enemies were also doing the very same, and the firepower they possessed far outmatched Xia Fei’s.

“Target painters active.”

A red laser beam shot forth, highlighting one of the enemy warships.

When target painters were used in conjunction with the missile system, it would be able to magnify the enemy’s signal radius by as much as fifty percent.

This was exactly what the fully automated missiles were designed to pursue; the larger their signal radius, the more accurate the missiles, thereby increasing the lethality of the missiles.

“Attention: The first wave of attacks will hit in 4.3 seconds.” The female voice rang out once more, though its tone was distinctly more urgent this time.

“Switch the medium proton bombs to manual control!” Xia Fei shouted.

Even without looking at the display screen, Xia Fei could already see the flaming trail of the missiles getting closer through the viewing window, a clear indication that the missiles were already close.

“Not even evading or getting your escape pod ready—has Xia Fei gone insane?”

“That’s it.
There’s no way he’s escaping now.”

The tone of the commentators was filled with sadness as if they firmly believed that Xia Fei was doomed to die.
However, in his ship’s control deck, Xia Fei was staring avidly at his radar system.
There were circles on it, each circle indicating his combat radius, and thirty-six dots were making it past each circle as they homed in on Xia Fei.

Xia Fei slightly moved his index and middle finger and placed them on two red buttons separately.
A single tap was all he needed to release a medium proton bomb instantly.

The TV broadcast had kindly placed a countdown clock at the top right corner of the screen, indicating when the missiles would connect.

The many spectators could feel their hearts beating as they quietly counted down inwardly.
Plenty of their hearts came to a stop the moment it reached zero.

*KABOOM!*

The blast from thirty-six missiles practically exploding at the same time was shockingly powerful.

All they could see on the screen was a fiery-red glare that abruptly appeared.
The effect of thirty-six highly explosive missiles detonating at the same time made for a stunning sight against the starry backdrop of space, making it hard for anyone to see clearly.

“They hit! Who knows if Xia Fei managed to escape with his life after such a great explosion?”

The glare disappeared as quickly as it appeared.
Unexpectedly, Xia Fei’s warship was actually still unscathed, its hull completely intact.

This was simply far too astonishing.
To think a frigate would be to withstand the bombardment of thirty-six missiles at the same time! Furthermore, all thirty-six of them hit the target, and such a result went well beyond anyone’s understanding toward warships.

It was still understandable for this to happen if Xia Fei was piloting a cruiser, but he was in a frigate; it was even a frigate known for its subpar defensive performance.
Just how did he survive such an intensive offense?

“Don’t stop the missile launchers.
Get the target painters onto the next target and keep firing relentlessly!” Xia Fei’s two eyes were slightly red as he yelled.
“If you dare to plot against me, you’d best not blame me for being merciless.”

After firing two volleys, making a total of eight missiles, Xia Fei turned his cannons toward the second target.

He fired four missiles at the enemy, and due to the target painters supplementing this attack, the effect of the attack achieved spectacular results.
That ship struck by the four missiles was effectively incapacitated as it lost its firepower and defense.

However, Xia Fei did not let him off, and his second volley of missiles was already enroute.

“The radar system has identified the signal source to be from warship no.
79.
Please advise,” the smart computer reported.

“That’s the enemy’s command ship.
As long as we take this one ship down, I’m sure we’ll be able to throw the enemy into turmoil.
Xia Fei, this is our chance!” Phantom anxiously cried.

“Assign that enemy ship as the final target in our attack sequence; I want him to live till the very end!” Xia Fei growled out his command.

“Don’t take this risk! We now have a chance to strike the head of the hydra and sow some discord amid their ranks.
Why are you letting him off?!” Phantom shouted, impatient and puzzled.

“Letting him off?” Xia Fei coldly snorted.
“Not a single one of them can think of getting away.”

With that said, the second wave of enemy missiles was upon him.
Xia Fei’s warship shook violently from the impact.

“Damage report.”

“Energy shield is completely depleted.
Thirteen percent of hull has been damaged, and we’ve lost two percent of structural integrity.”

“Shut off the engine and divert all the energy toward the shield rechargers.
Charge up for another proton bomb.”

“The proton bomb requires another 4.5 seconds to be fully charged.”

Phantom’s expression went pale, nearly collapsing down on the ground, butt first.

“Xia Fei.
with your engines turned off, are you planning to stay here like a lame duck and wait for death?” Phantom asked hoarsely.
