A Relentless Pursuit

"Damn it, how dare they still chase after us? Xia, it seems your deterrent power isn't enough. Otherwise, send the Avengers Ship over, and we'll wipe them out."

The sound of Rockets came from ahead.

I really don't understand why the Rockets are so volatile.

"Didn't you say you were the best pilot in the universe? The Avengers Ship doesn't count; now it's your time to prove yourself, Rocket."

"Watch me unleash my carnage!"

With a sudden push of the Rocket lever, blue flames erupted from all the thrusters of the Milano.

Instantly, the Milano's power was increased to maximum.

The powerful thrust meant that if Xia Yu hadn't grabbed Star-Lord, he would have rolled right onto the glass at the back of the spaceship.

Groot, on the other hand, was lying there admiring the scenery.

The first attack occurs, followed by a continuous barrage of attacks.

Sovereign's fleet had always believed that she could win by sheer numbers.

The fleet consisted of at least several thousand ships, and the dense barrage of attacks overwhelmed the Rockets.

"I need an attacker."

The Rocket shouted from the front.

"Xia, get me a seat in the front."

The spaceship was so bumpy that Star-Lord could hardly stand.

"Stand still, don't move."

Xia Yu accurately tossed Star-Lord directly onto the seat.

I was just about to ask Ayesha what happened.

To everyone's surprise, Ayesha also looked incredulous.

Xia Yu felt that Ayesha had already been abandoned by Sovereign.

Xia Yu was right, but Ayesha was surprised that the High Council still order an attack, knowing that Xia Yu possessed the Infinity Stones and had the power to control them.

With the High Priest absent, the High Council must be the ones with the authority to deploy so many spaceships.

Neither of them expected that the High Council was completely unaware of the Infinity Stones.

When the guards outside the main hall tried to break in, Xia Yu slapped them away with a single palm strike.

He immediately went to report to the High Council.

Besides the high priest, there were many nobles inside, so the two of them dared not make a decision easily.

Upon learning of this, the High Council immediately issued an order for a full-scale attack.

Life and death, regardless of which.

When they arrived at the main hall, the high priest had already been taken away by those people.

The nobles and guards in the main hall were still shaken by Xia Yu's Life and Death Talisman.

In addition, many people helped Xia Yu take Ayesha away.

So all they said was that Ayesha had been taken away by the enemy, and nothing else.

They all went home to recover on their own.

The High Council absolutely not tolerate the noble High Priest of the Sovereign race being taken away by the enemy.

It's still within its own territory.

So the High Council discussed it briefly and, without hesitation, dispatched a fleet to pursue and kill it.

We must annihilate the enemy.

As for Ayesha's safety, that was a matter for after the enemy was completely annihilated.

It's better to be dead than alive and taken away by someone.

This was an outcome that neither Xia Yu nor Ayesha had anticipated.

"BOOM!~!~!"

After a series of attacks, the defensive shield at the tail of the spaceship finally gave way.

A large hole was blown open at the tail.

Ayesha and Nebula were simply tied to the pillar with their hands.

The sudden burst of air from behind caused the two to fly sideways.

Xia Yu reacted quickly and grabbed Groot was about to fly into space.

The Aether transformed into a large shield, firmly blocking the hole behind them.

"Xia, there's a button on your left. That's the emergency energy hull. Activate it."

Gamora yelled back.

Xia Yu quickly pressed the button, and a golden light net appeared, temporarily replacing the functions of the spaceship's hull.

With Star-Lord and Rocket's combined efforts, this fleet was quickly and completely destroyed.

The spaceship finally began a stable flight.

Star-Lord and his crew really lost out on this mission; if it weren't for the huge sum of money they made from robbing the Grandmaster a while back...

Now they probably won't even have the money to repair the spaceship.

Natasha looked at Xia Yu with great embarrassment.

She felt that she had lost her temper in the main hall, which was why so much trouble had happened.

"You don't know us, Natasha. They cause a lot of trouble every now and then. Today is just an appetizer, believe me."

Gamora pointed at Rocket and Star-Lord.

"Thanks!"

Natasha naturally understood Gamora's good intentions.

"Boom!!"

The spaceship experienced another violent jolt, and the jet nozzle on its right wing was damaged.

"Damn it, there's another spaceship behind us."

It might have been an oversight; another of Sovereign's spaceships somehow crept up behind them at some point.

Just now, it took advantage of the Milano's inattention and hit the Milano's wing directly with an Energy Cannon.

"Damn it, the propulsion system is affected. What's the nearest planet we can land on?"

Star-Lord asked without turning his head.

"It's Boha Comet."

Gamora quickly activated the spaceship's positioning system, glanced at it, and said...

How many jump points are needed?

"A wormhole, 47 standard distances from here."

"Everyone, please sit still. We might experience a little bumpy ride."

Star-Lord shouted loudly.

The small spaceship behind was still continuously firing energy blasts.

It kept hitting the Milano's energy shield, causing another round of turbulence.

The Milano's wing thruster nozzle was damaged, greatly affecting its maneuverability.

The driver behind Sovereign was also quite skilled, keeping up relentlessly and occasionally managing to hit his target.

"I really want to turn around and give that annoying guy behind me a good beating."

"Rocket said angrily."

In his opinion, the pilots of Sovereign's warships were all trash, and he was extremely annoyed to be chased and beaten by such a lowly person.

"Stop dreaming, our weapon systems are broken too."

Star-Lord checked several weapons, but they were also unusable.

"If you could wear a spacesuit and Rocket, I can make your wish come true."

In the movie, Drax put on a makeshift spacesuit, opened the rear hatch, went out, and destroyed the spaceship.

But now Xia Yu wants to fulfill the Rockets ' wish.

It's like the Rocket putting on a spacesuit and opening the energy barrier at the back.

Under the powerful suction force, Xia Yu not only firmly grasped a part of the spaceship but also remained completely still.

Even the Rocket, which Xia Yu was holding with his other hand, steadily picked up the gun and aimed it at the spaceship behind them.

Wow!

After taking down the little tail behind it, Rocket let out an excited roar.

The minor issue has been resolved, but an even bigger problem has arisen.

They were almost at the wormhole when a dense belt of meteorites appeared before the Milano.

Just like in the movie, Drax said that it would take the best pilot in the universe to safely fly over this large area of meteorites.

Rocket and Star-Lord are fighting over control of the spaceship to determine who is the best.

What should have been a smooth flight took a lot of bumping and stumbling before it finally made it across.

The wormhole is right in front of us.

Then came another densely packed fleet of Sovereign's men.

The fleet we just saw was merely for harassment; the real feast is yet to come.

They had already surrounded the wormhole.

As soon as the Milano appeared, thousands upon thousands of energy projectiles were launched at Milano simultaneously.

The Milano's Energy Shield can only withstand such an attack for a maximum of three seconds.
