Chapter 390

Chapter 390. Crazy Difficulty Level, Whaaat.

Of course, Jessica tilted her head with a face full of suspicion at my choice.

Well, to be precise, it was more like a reaction of “You scared, bro?”

“Commander, isn’t this the point where Ouroboros should go wild even in Round 6?”

“…Well, it might seem that way.”

Unfortunately, this time, the situation was just too bad to even respond to the “You scared?” vibe.

“But we don’t have any ships to tank.”

“Hmm…”

“It’s an event where the enemies get stronger every round, and they’ve gotten so strong by just Round 5 that it’s terrifying? I don’t have the guts to charge in relying only on my ships.”

“That’s true.”

Even though I’m ranked 3rd among all users, my fleet’s overall strength is top-tier.

But even my fleet, in this Round 5 battle, lost 1 battleship, 2 cruiser battleships, and 3 patrol ships out of the 22 ships deployed.

One battleship barely survived but is in critical condition, and one cruiser battleship crash-landed on a planet and was salvaged, so it’s basically just alive by a thread.

“Plus, the defense facilities were pretty much useless.”

“Definitely.”

Not to mention, the enemy fleet’s performance was just too overpowered.

The additional defense facilities I boldly invested in were mostly useless.

For example, the <Camouflaged Fortress Network>, which cost 2 points, just exploded like popcorn under even a little enemy bombardment.

The <Large-Scale Minefield> was basically just a bunch of space mines floating around, but one shot from a destroyer and they all went poof.

The <Super Alloy Defense Barrier> seemed worth it at first, but after the destroyers, dreadnoughts, and battleships went to town on it, it collapsed in minutes.

Even the defense satellites, which used to withstand at least one cruiser-class bombardment, are now practically useless.

I was trying to break through this absurd round, but to avoid losing precious assets like the Kraken, I had no choice but to abandon Round 5.

Of course, users like me who even “cleared” Round 5 were already rare.

The dreadnought and destroyers came at me together, so I was literally fighting for my life.

Comments:

– [Trying to escape Round 5 is a sign of intelligence]

– [But honestly, it’s kinda messed up]

– [When dreadnoughts and destroyers pop out in Round 5, you really should just quit lol]

– [How much damage did you take?]

– [3 battleships, 2 cruiser battleships, patrol ships went boom] (Author)

– [Why are patrol ships just “went boom” and not even a number? lol]

– [Honestly, that’s understandable]

—

Meanwhile, I saw a post from a user with a similar fleet composition who got wrecked just like me and decided to quit.

I immediately hit surrender and quit as soon as I saw that.

Apparently, if you surrender right at the start, it doesn’t count as playing that round.

But honestly, my ships are more precious than that.

Comments:

– [WTF is that]

– [Quitting is the smart move^^]

– [10 destroyers? Forget dodging, you’re just gonna melt lol]

Title: Don’t go to Round 6, seriously

There was a ship that seemed to be a special ship, and after getting hit by it, my Bayern-class turned into that.

Oh, and by the way, it somehow survived and is now being repaired at the shipyard.

Comments:

– [How did you survive, you crazy bastard]

– [You actually survived that]

– [How the hell did you survive?]

Huh? No matter how I look at it, there’s no trace of the ship left.

-˪[What the?]

-[We decided to call that not “alive” but a “walking corpse.”]

-˪[But it survived, right?]

Title: Other guys were whining about large ships appearing in Round 6.

Content: [A swarm of about 5,000 ‘Assault Ships’.jpg]

I almost got wrecked by a swarm of assault ships that wouldn’t sink even after getting hit by cruiser or destroyer beam cannons.

[‘Pegasus’-class bombardment heavy cruiser getting split in half and sinking, with another ship’s side exploding from a quantum bomb hit.jpg]

Some of them actually exploded.

So, instead of getting captured, I just self-destructed and surrendered to preserve the ships.

[Battle result verification.jpg]

Anyway, long story short, just don’t do it, okay?

Damn, losing the Pegasus-class really killed my motivation.
