We won. !d Win phone bills)
In a sudden head-on clash, with no terrain advantage, no numerical advantage, and no technological advantage, we fought a brutal, blade-to-blade battle against the Fallen Apostle legion that held an absolute upper hand—and ultimately achieved a complete victory. This was practically a battle worthy of being recorded in history. Apart from the thirty percent that retreated in the end, we had nearly annihilated the main force of the Fallen Apostles' attack, thwarting their sinister plan to seize the Holy Treasury ruins while wiping out the Imperial Command Headquarters. No matter the circumstances, this was an event absolutely worthy of becoming a milestone:
We had fought a hard battle against the Fallen Apostles' main legion.
The historical significance and military strategic value of this battle went without saying. The enemy that had always been the hardest to understand had, this time, effectively exposed its frontal combat style and the data of its various warship classes before us. After one battle, the information we gathered about the Fallen Apostles was richer than all the scattered intelligence we had obtained over the previous three years. We had finally gained accurate knowledge of the performance parameters and attack power of all kinds of Abyss Infection Shilin warships, learned the characteristics of weapons like the Abyssalized Star River Main Gun, and even intercepted the communication protocols between Fallen Apostles—something the Shilin Technicians had extracted from massive quantities of battlefield signals after the battle reached its fiercest stage. Naturally, we had no way of cracking such heavily encrypted information, but by analyzing the Fallen Apostles' communication protocols, Tawell might find a breakthrough in understanding their usual activity patterns.
