29: Chapter 29 Chen Yuan

As soon as he entered the battlefield, Xia Xingchen saw five Imperial fleets mercilessly attacking the Transmigrator's fleet.

No, rather than a fleet, it was more like just one warship and one asteroid base.

This Transmigrator, through unknown means, had found an asteroid base left behind by the Empire in an asteroid belt and built a survival base inside it.

What surprised Xia Xingchen through the optical screen was that one dual-barreled auto cannon after another was continuously firing at the Imperial fleet.

Although their power couldn't cause absolute damage to the Imperial fleet, it forced the Imperial fleet to take evasive maneuvers.

Xia Xingchen immediately became interested. The technology this Transmigrator possessed should be Fully Automatic Fixed Artillery Platform Technology.

However, what made Xia Xingchen even more curious was, why was the Imperial Navy so weak?

Xia Xingchen carefully observed the warships through the optical screen. These so-called Imperial warships looked very old, and many of them were ridiculously small, less than a few hundred meters long.

They looked more like civilian ships that had been modified.

One must know that the smallest frigate in the Imperial Navy was about one kilometer long.

This proved one thing: this human fleet did not belong to the Imperial Navy, and was more likely the private armed force of a certain Sector Governor.

"My Lord, who should we help? Or should we eliminate both sides?"

Nuwa looked at the battle situation before her and asked Xia Xingchen for the next course of action.

In fact, with the strength of the dream star warship, it could easily wipe out both forces.

Xia Xingchen pondered for a moment. When out and about, it was still best to help a fellow countryman.

After all, the fellow countryman would most likely offer technology as a thank-you gift, while this human governor would only see him as an enemy.

"Destroy all those Imperial warships for me."

No sooner had Xia Xingchen's command fallen than the dream star, hidden in the shadows, immediately moved, stealthily approaching the rear of the Imperial fleet.

Subsequently, the six torpedo cannons at the front of the ship were immediately prepared. When all torpedo cannons locked onto the Imperial fleet currently engaged in battle, a volley followed closely behind.

It was only at this moment that the Imperial fleet's bird divination device finally detected the anomaly behind them; a terrifying energy fluctuation suddenly erupted behind them.

Before the human warships could react, several torpedoes had already appeared in the void, heading straight for the fleet.

The captain of the human warship immediately captured this information through the bird divination device. They immediately activated the ship's Void Shield, hoping to withstand this attack.

The instant the shells struck the Void Shield, the immense impact force immediately overloaded and shut down the outer Void Shield, then blasted into the inner Void Shield.

Under the consumption of the two layers of Void Shield, the explosion power of the shells had been greatly weakened, and the inner Void Shield successfully transferred the explosion damage into the Warp.

Just as the human captain breathed a sigh of relief, the bird divination device operator immediately shouted nervously again:

"Watch out for the Lance!"

Xia Xingchen's attack did not pause in the slightest because the torpedoes were intercepted. Following closely behind was a destructive beam strike condensed from six Particle Lances.

The moment the shells exploded, the searing beam of the Lance arrived.

The opponent's Void Shield was already nearing overload and simply could not withstand this new round of attacks.

When all Void Shield layers were completely exhausted, and the shield generators temporarily shut down to discharge overloaded energy, the Lance accurately aimed at the warship's exposed armored bridge.

A scorching beam tore through the dark void, directly hitting the target.

All six of the Governor's warships were destroyed in this star sea.

Before Xia Xingchen, only a fragmented void remained, piled with warship wreckage.

When the human Governor's warships were completely destroyed, the automatic turrets also ceased their attacks.

But the next second, they swiveled their muzzles and aimed in the direction where Xia Xingchen was.

Seeing this, Xia Xingchen was considering whether to clear out these turrets as well.

A communication request connected to Xia Xingchen's bridge.

Xia Xingchen connected the communication and found that the signal was actually coming from inside the asteroid base.

"Connect the communication."

The operator immediately connected the communication. On the large screen of the bridge command room, the scene inside the asteroid base instantly appeared, with a middle-aged man standing in front of the communicator.

The middle-aged man had a square face, a receding hairline, and a weathered appearance. Compared to Xia Xingchen, he looked more like someone who had struggled for a long time in troubled times.

"Greetings, fellow countryman. I am the owner of this asteroid city. My name is Chen Yuan."

Xia Xingchen could now basically confirm that the middle-aged man in front of him was a fellow countryman who had transmigrated, just like him.

Upon hearing this, Xia Xingchen also responded kindly:

"Hello, fellow countryman. I am Xia Xingchen, captain of the dream star."

The reunion of fellow countrymen significantly lowered both their guards.

"What exactly is going on?"

Xia Xingchen directly asked. Xia Xingchen really wanted to know why this human Governor was chasing Chen Yuan.

Logically speaking, unless it affected tax revenue, these Sector Governors would generally not meddle in such affairs.
