The Confident Commander and... a Hit!

This trait increased armor's Defense Strength by 40% for 40 minutes.

This was achieved through the integrated effect of the Defense System.

After receiving the buff, the Black Hole Cruiser's actual Defense Strength exceeded 200,000 points!

That level of Defense Strength...

Was an insurmountable barrier for the battleships in the Shannan Kingdom's elite fleet!

Never forget—

Battleships suffered a 30% reduction to all attributes when facing a Star Destroyer.

In other words...

The battleships in the Shannan Kingdom's elite fleet...

Needed nearly 300,000 points of Attack Strength to deal substantial damage to the Dark Peng!

That level of Attack Strength...

Was beyond the reach of the vast majority of battleships!

Among the fourteen battleships in the Shannan Kingdom's elite fleet...

Only a handful had super main guns capable of achieving that.

And even just piercing its defenses was a struggle.

Against the Black Hole Cruiser's shield recovery rate of over 8,000 points per second...

What difference could the battleships' attacks make?

None at all!

No wonder Wu Baiyi had made such a brazen declaration.

The Shannan Kingdom's elite fleet had despairingly realized...

That within their own formation...

Only the Guardian of the Mountains, their Star Destroyer...

Could damage the unknown Star Destroyer that had appeared out of nowhere and launched an attack.

The other battleships' attacks were simply ignored!

If that were all...

They could have accepted it.

But more importantly...

Even the Guardian of the Mountains' attacks...

Didn't seem to be enough?

That was exactly right.

Without using the Star Destroyer Cannon...

Even with its two super main guns and eight main guns firing
