Chapter 1448 - Fighting the Fleet Alone and Brushing Past

Batman had been pursued the moment he charged through the space portal.

The Chitauri fleet hadn’t cared about him at all at first. They continued to send troops into New York and had a small squad go after him.

Of course, this small squad itself already had more than 500 fliers.

Luke could only keep up his speed and stick to the big battleship as much as possible to block some of the attacks. At the same time, he relied on the fact that his clone wasn’t afraid of death to fight the fliers.

The Bat suit had an exclusive defensive component, which was the only one to use a third generation arc reactor. The suit hence had an extremely powerful energy system and protective armor.

A large third generation arc reactor was enough to provide a tremendous amount of energy to maintain the electromagnetic deflection system which Ivan had invented. It could effectively deflect and weaken the fliers’ plasma beams, while the super armor was able to withstand any unavoidable attacks.

Even so, the speed at which the external add-ons were damaged was unbelievable. They only lasted a minute at most before he had to replace them.

But one minute was more than enough for Luke.

Reasonably speaking, it was already pretty good if the firepower from a full set of external add-ons could last 20 seconds against this horde.

Once one set was thoroughly ruined, he could still reload with ammo from his inventory a few times, thereby utilizing his gear to the fullest.

A few minutes later, the Chitauri fleet realized that something wasn’t tight.

The enemy the size of a mosquito had an infinite supply of ammo, as well as inexplicably interchangeable external add-ons.

On a huge X-shaped mothership, a Chitauri commander noticed the situation.

Finally, he ordered impatiently, “The invader might have a space device. Don’t give him a chance to catch his breath. All fliers, press forward. Ship cannons on standby. Don’t worry about damage to the machines. Just open fire.”

The true Chitauri army was on the mothership. The invading battleships and foot soldiers were nothing more than remote-controlled machines. There was no need to feel sorry over their loss.

At his command, the cannons on the mothership that had yet to participate in the battle turned and pointed at Luke.

Almost at the same time, Luke felt a sense of crisis.

Thanks to his vague intuition for danger, the source was obvious.

Alfred also gave a simple notification. “The cannons on target 2 are aimed at you.”

Luke’s eyes flickered. It was at that moment that he had Big Dipper ask Thor to block the portal on the other side.

At the same time, he finally activated his telekinesis power which he had hidden the whole time.

The suit’s thrusters weren’t very effective in space, even after Luke made some targeted modifications and increased the power supply.

With the help of telekinesis, however, Luke could move more flexibly in this vacuum.

The Chitauri hadn’t been serious earlier, and Luke had also held back.

This way, he might be able to approach the huge X-shaped mothership when it still wasn’t as vigilant.

At that time, the clone could take it down with it.

So far, only two of these enormous X-shaped motherships had appeared in the starry expanse.

As long as he took down one of them first, he would have enough points for a one-way ticket out of here.

It had to be pointed out that the attack on Earth was planned out and directed by the Chitauri on the mothership.

All the losses in New York today had to be blamed on the two motherships.

Luke was thus very certain that motherships 1 and 2 were targets worth insane amounts of experience and credit points.

The moment the Chitauri commander gave the order, Luke struggled to approach the enormous mothership nearby that he had designated target 2.

However, this so-called “nearby” was more than 50 kilometers away — for an interstellar fleet, this was indeed “nearby.”

At that moment, Luke decisively opened fire.

As he suddenly sped up, gun turrets suddenly appeared one by one.

The moment they appeared, they immediately launched a first round of attacks.

One type was unmanned electromagnetic cannons. Each fixed cannon had five shells. After that, they were useless.

Another type was an improved space missile launcher, which could hold a hundred small missiles that could be fired at the same time.

The former was responsible for sounding out the second mothership, while the latter was purely to create disruptions and chaos.

The missiles didn’t hit the target, but exploded between Luke and the second mothership, as they were supposed to.

Luke wasn’t looking to be precise; all he wanted was for the missiles to cover a large area and create a small-scale but highly intense energy reaction using Predator technology.

A large swath of Chitauri fliers was blown up. Even the big worm battleships were caught in the blast and exploded.

Excited, Luke stayed close to the exploding fliers and battleships as he quickly approached the second mothership.

Some of the electromagnetic shells had reached the second mothership earlier, but they were blocked by a light blue shield.

A protective shield? Luke wasn’t too surprised, and focused even more.

It was impossible for an interstellar army like the Chitauri fleet to not have advanced technology.

However, the electromagnetic cannons had completed their mission as “scouts.”

Watching Alfred swiftly analyze the data on the mothership’s protective shield, Luke immediately changed course.

It wasn’t like the Chitauri battleship was passive, however.

Amidst the explosions, some of the ship cannons fired, and countless plasma cannons enveloped Luke.

The brilliant light blue plasma beams pierced the air and destroyed everything in their way, including a large number of fliers and a few large worm battleships.

Thanks to Luke’s intuition for danger, he was able to instantly take evasive action.

Amidst the blue beams of light, the Bat suit really was like a bat. It was as if it could predict everything that would be in its path as it dodged nimbly and sped up.

With the help of telekinesis and this intuition for danger, it was impossible to predict his flight path.

The plasma beams missed him by just a hairsbreadth.

These weren’t Earth cannonballs, but auxiliary plasma cannons on a space battleship.

As long as the clone was hit by a plasma beam, it would be completely destroyed.

Thankfully, he was to one side of the second mothership, which blocked most of the shots from the first mothership on the other side.

Also, Luke had discovered something interesting in the battle just now.

The electromagnetic deflection system which Ivan had set up had a pretty good effect on the plasma beams.

In this vacuum, the electromagnetic deflection system was very useful.

He could control the power and direction of the deflection with the help of his telekinesis, and the ship’s cannons couldn’t lock onto him..
