The Dark Star was nearly seven kilometers wide. As the distance between the two sides closed, the pressure brought by the colossal vessel grew stronger. Sweeper fighters looked like flies before it.
No matter how many there were, they were still only swarms of flies.
"Hey... they won't suddenly open fire, will they? Are we really getting closer?" Peter was nervous. After all, this was his first time facing a ship this large.
"The Dark Star is a pure Helicarrier. It carries no weapons; all its space is reserved for Necro fighters... but it's time for us to open fire." Gamora explained.
As she spoke, the lead ship at the very front fired two massive fireballs. However, they were not offensive weapons, but cover.
The plasma exploded in the air, forming a hemispherical shield between the two sides and completely blocking the Dark Star's detection systems!
"Cover deployed. Begin the operation!" Yondu's voice rang out over the comm channel!
The Sweeper fighters advanced toward the Dark Star in a pincer formation along the plasma shield. Everything went smoothly—until the next moment, when the Necro fighters poured out in full force!
How many fighters could a seven-kilometer-class Helicarrier hold? Peter learned the answer in the next instant.

Boom!
The concentrated cannon fire blasted a hole into the hull, opening a passage inside!
"Quill, now—"
"Damn it, there are too many enemies! We can't get in!"
But there were simply too many
