Chapter 283: Chapter 156: Kill with a Backward Thrust

The cabin was silent, Isus’s expression was no longer the relaxed indifference he had initially shown, but was steely and tense as he stared intently at the figure on the screen.

"Gravity wave interference failed!"

"The blockade matrix is misaligned!"

Another failure, even in a hasty situation, Li Ming seemed to be able to sense the danger that could arise at any moment and thus evade it.

"The main cannon is fully charged, but we can’t lock onto the target because he’s using the warship for cover."

The reflexes and speed of a B-level life form go without saying, and with Li Ming secretly tipping him off, the difficulty of capture had risen exponentially.

"This person is truly not to be underestimated." Feder feigned a sigh, with a slightly raised voice, "He’s handling such a tight blockade with ease."

Isus’s face grew even darker, clearly, Feder was mocking him, kicking him while he was down.

"With just these few warships, it’s probably very difficult to catch him. Why not have a few B-level life forms assist from the side?" Feder suggested, adding immediately, "Of course, I’m just making a recommendation, you’re the commander here."

Isus gave him a cold glance, he didn’t intend to use B-level life forms, capturing a B-level life form with just these warships was a symbol of his ability.

But he wasn’t so arrogant to stubbornly hold out until the end, risking accidents, using B-level life forms was an inevitable choice.

Now that Feder had brought it up first, it was as though his own ability was insufficient, and it was only after listening to Feder’s suggestion that he decided to use B-level life forms. He felt extremely nauseous at heart.

Fortunately, his deputy commander immediately said, "Your Highness Isus had already prepared for this."

"Director Chen, General Ren, Sanger, please assist in encircling the target." Isus directed the three of them.

Their expressions were mixed and none responded immediately.

"Wait..." Feder raised an eyebrow, "These three had fought against four B-level life forms from the Torch Organization to save us, and they haven’t yet completely recovered from their injuries, their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced."

"How can we let them go, what if something happens?"

Isus frowned, anger already being stirred within him, but he still explained:

"Coyle’s frontal combat strength isn’t strong, and I’m aware that you haven’t fully recovered from your injuries. However, if you join forces to deal with him, there definitely won’t be any problems."

"You also said that these fleets alone could blockade Coyle." Feder shook his head.

"Feder!" Isus shouted, "I am the commander here!"

"You’re the commander of the Shadow Wings Fleet, not the commander here!" Feder retorted without fear, "Director Chen and General Ren belong to the Blue Star personnel, Sanger is the leader of the investigative mission, which one of them is under your command?"

Feder feared Princess Asmara, and he was also wary of Isus, but that didn’t mean he was afraid to speak his mind.

Especially after Asmara had left.

Isus took a deep breath, Feder’s words left him speechless, as that was indeed the case in name.

His gaze fell on Chen Jinglong and the two others, now he could only hope that they would volunteer, allowing him to step down gracefully.

Their expressions flickered with hesitation, they resented it in their hearts, having not fully recovered from their injuries, confronting a desperate fugitive ensured no guarantee of safety, and it might even lead to a life-for-life situation.

If Princess Asmara were present, they certainly wouldn’t dare to say much, but now...

Isus had noticed their hesitation, his face taut with tension, a hint of triumph flashed in Feder’s eyes as he spoke, "I have a better suggestion."

"Lord Morico and Duke Bai Ye, who are both by Your Highness Isus’s side, are still in good shape, let them just go and attack Coyle."

"Not possible." Morico, standing behind Isus and clad in black combat armor, resembling a solid wall, said firmly, "My task is to protect His Highness Isus, and no one is going anywhere."

Duke Bai Ye’s eyes flickered and he cursed under his breath, then reluctantly said, "I’m also not good at direct combat."

"Why don’t we let three severely injured B-level life forms stay and protect us, what could possibly go wrong?" Feder shrugged, "Two in their prime will certainly be more useful than three severely wounded ones."

Isus’s gaze was icy. He hadn’t expected, after Princess Asmara’s departure, that Feder would dare to put him in such a position where he couldn’t save face.

He had grown a lot bolder than before, this trip to Jingnan had taught him quite a few tricks.

"Indeed, we three are severely injured, and if we forced ourselves to take action, accidents might happen." Chen Jinglong nodded, Sanger obviously agreed, and only Ren Cangsong seemed hesitant.

"Report, the target is now approaching the edge of the Energy Barrier!" Someone on the warship reported, the delay had allowed Coyle to reach the edge of the barrier, continuously bombarding the thick blockade barrier.

In view of this situation, it led to the firepower net being unable to shoot on a large scale, to avoid damaging the blockade barrier.

"Morico, Duke Bai Ye, please take care of this." Isus could only look to the two of them, Morico’s brow furrowed as if he wanted to say something, but was silenced by a wave of Isus’s hand.

All eyes were on Duke Bai Ye.

Shit, Duke Bai Ye clenched his teeth, in such a situation he had no choice but to nod reluctantly, "In that case, it’s my duty to step up."

The two quickly headed toward the launch bay, while Isus simultaneously commanded, "Cease the firepower coverage, lock in the chain stance, the cage trap, and start charging the energy wave dampeners."

The warship’s attacks did not distinguish friend from foe, and any that landed on Morico and Duke Bai Ye would certainly cause injury as well.

And in the instant when the firepower coverage came to a complete stop, Coyle on the screen seemed to go mad.
