Chapter 501 [Light of Purification] 3
After noticing that the opponent's attack had stopped, Wilson couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief while escaping.
As the weakened split version of [Light of Purification] dissipated, he had time to count his losses.
Through the consciousness network, count the number of remaining void beasts.
Wilson felt like the sky was shattering and the earth was shattering, as if he had been struck by lightning.
But in just a few minutes, he had worked hard for hundreds of years and used all his belongings as collateral to earn millions of giant void worms, but now he only had less than half a million left.
This is a giant void worm that he only managed to get by adding loan leverage.
The loss of 500,000 Void Giant Insects was not as simple as his net worth being reduced by half.
Wilson could already foresee what would happen if the group of 'vampire' salesmen in the Zerg Sacred Bank knew about this.
His credit rating will definitely be downgraded.
Then, the other party can use the risk stop-loss regulations to forcibly confiscate his assets and fleet.
Even those grandsons may use second-hand assets as a reason to discount debts when counting assets.
Finally, he was packaged and sold into the laboratory of Mr. Dimi, who was heavily in debt.
"How much is the waist of a senior hero-level brainworm worth...?"
…
"Boss, through the directional extension of the consciousness network, a large number of ship reactions were detected from the direction from which the light came."
"Preliminary estimates put the number at least in the tens of millions."
Brainworm Cotton's voice sounded in the consciousness network, immediately interrupting Wilson's random thoughts and bringing him back to reality from his fuzzy state.
Cotton's report continued.
"At the beginning of the previous range-wide high-energy attack, the energy fluctuations were in a smooth decline state. It is estimated that there will be no follow-up strikes for the time being."
"What should we do next?"
When he said this, Cotton waited for a moment. There was silence in the consciousness network, and he did not get any answer from Wilson.
This made Cotton feel nervous.
Since he became Wilson's lieutenant, he has faced this extremely motivated boss.
This was the first time he had not received an answer after asking a question.
Cotton, who was at a loss for what to do, could only continue to analyze and give suggestions according to his past habits.
"Judging from the actions of the opponent's battleship group, it is obvious that they have pursuit intentions."
"Comparing the speed of battleships, the giant void worm should have an absolute speed advantage."
"There are still some stocks of high-end mesh bugs in the fleet. We can launch them remotely and build an ultra-long-range fire locking system..."
Cotton, who had never retreated as a loser, finally came up with a seemingly feasible counterattack suggestion based on past combat practices.
"Perhaps we can consider using kite tactics and fight while retreating..."
Before Cotton could finish speaking, he was forcibly interrupted by Wilson who finally spoke.
"You're a kite, and your energy reserves are not full. What are you going to do to compete with enemies that are twenty times more powerful?"
"Besides, if the attack just now happens again, wouldn't we be completely finished?"
"Knowing that the other party has a back-up plan, you still stubbornly suggest counterattack?"
Three consecutive rhetorical questions left Cotton speechless. Wilson, who finally felt better, directly ordered:
"The entire fleet immediately retreats in a dispersed formation. The remaining half of the void giants can no longer withstand any losses."
Speaking of this, Wilson felt that his riddled heart was like a faucet that had been turned on, spewing blood crazily, and the previous drops of blood were nothing.
After giving the order to run away, they could feel the huge fleet in the distance that was still speeding up and intending to pursue them.
Wilson was uneasy. He had just suffered a loss. He just thought about it for a moment and then added:
"Little Cotton, um..., in order to avoid unnecessary risks, we will adjust the course..."
"Circle around Anderson's territory and take the road back."
"Anderson has been working for me for a while before. As his old boss, we can drop by his territory and gain some energy reserves for free."
"As for the fleet behind, if the other party wants to chase it, let them chase it."
"When we return to the clan's territory, ten million battleships will only serve to deliver food."
After listening to Wilson's arrangement, Cotton appeared calm and had no objections.
But deep down in his heart, he was complaining like crazy.
‘Have you forgotten that the opponent had a super weapon that could wipe out half a million giant void insects with one shot? ’
‘Are you not prepared to use your former subordinates to block the gun? "
‘Sure enough, everyone who can become a large farmer has his faults. ’
‘What a role model for our generation! You need to remember this, maybe you can use it when you are on your own in the future! ’
