2121 Fierce Mutual Cannonfire

With Thor's entrance, Knight and the Avengers' target changed.

Knight, who had been suppressing Thanos's ground troops, put away the two Gatling guns and quickly flew upward.

The suit's energy cannons, which he had never used, finally displayed their might as they blew up all of the enemy fighter planes which Luke passed.

Compared with dozens of shots per second from a Gatling gun, it didn't take any brainpower at all to fire two energy cannons per second, even though the fighter planes were far faster than the ground troops.

Soon, Luke reached an unlucky battleship that was breaking apart. Luke shouted, "Thor, forget this junk; there are still a lot of battleships above us."

Thor was charging around inside the battleship with his ax, turning the aliens on it into broken charcoal.

He was in the throes of his revenge, when Luke's low-powered Lion's Roar finally shocked him back to his senses, and he flew out of the battleship.

Without saying anything, Luke used Mental Resistance to calm the guy down. "Let's go."

Thor looked in the direction Luke was pointing and saw dozens of black dots just outside Earth's atmosphere. They were Thanos's fleet.

"Alright, follow me." With that, lightning burst out of his body as he flew upward.

Looking at the lightning, Luke hurriedly followed and yelled, "Be careful… ship cannons! F*cking… Frank, Ursa Minor B Team, prepare to enter the battlefield."

Frank looked at the screen in front of him and quickly did some calculations as he replied, "Ursa Minor B Team. Ten-second countdown."

He had been overseeing the battle all this time from a safe underground facility; it wasn't time yet for the battleships under his control to take action. Hence, he had a clear view of the situation on the battlefield.

Thus, he knew very well that this order from Luke was to protect Thor.

It was too easy for an enemy cannon to hit a target flying in a straight line, even if it was only the size of a person.

If they really let Thor charge at Thanos's fleet like this like a mad dog, this God of Thunder would probably get a taste of what it was like to be cooked by a plasma cannon.

So, Ursa Minor B Team had to make an appearance and attack Thanos's fleet first so that they would give up on Thor, this less threatening target.

Thor was very fast. With Stormbreaker's protection, he flew pretty much at Mach 5 speed.

If he wanted to reach the boundary of Earth's atmosphere, however, it would still take him dozens of seconds.

Thus, Ursa Minor, which had been ready for action, finally seized the opportunity to attack the battleships.

Strange personally opened ten gigantic portals.

Ten Ursa Minor battleships burst out of the portals at high speed.

It hadn't taken more than a second for each battleship to appear dozens of kilometers away from Thanos's fleet.

Only when Strange took action could they ensure that nothing went wrong during this high-powered 'delivery' of the battleships.

This way, the surprise attack by Ursa Minor B Team wouldn't turn into a disaster.

After all, the portals were opened just dozens of kilometers away from Thanos's fleet. Three seconds was all it would take for the enemy's cannons to envelop them.

At that moment, Ursa Minor B Team teleported over one after another, the bows of the ship all pointing to the center.

Even so, just as Ursa Minor B Team launched their attack, Thanos's fleet broke away and counterattacked, turning Ursa Minor's ambush into a gunfight.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

At that moment, countless ordinary people in Africa raised their heads and looked at the sky in confusion. They could actually see stars on such a hot afternoon?

The energy cannons and battleships that exploded were like bright stars in their eyes.

High up in the atmosphere, both fleets suffered losses.

Six Ursa Minor's ten battleships exploded on the spot, and the remaining four were heavily damaged.

Three battleships in Thanos's fleet, which had the absolute advantage in numbers, were destroyed, and two were heavily damaged.

Under Ursa Minor's deliberate two-on-one firepower strategy, the five battleships that were the targets were unable to hold up.

The four Ursa Minor battleships that had survived the first round of gunfire were still as valiant as ever. All the weapons that could be fired were fired wildly as they charged at Thanos's fleet.

Then… nothing.

Ten versus thirty turned into four versus thirty. The explosions of these four Ursa Minor battleships were even more spectacular than the explosions of the first six.

But that didn't matter to Ursa Minor at all since the four wrecked battleships were controlled by the A.I. program. Luke didn't expect them to do anything extraordinary; he just needed them to distract Thanos's fleet a little.

The moment the damaged battleships were destroyed, gigantic portals opened once more.

The six members of Ursa Minor B Team whose battleships had been blown up earlier had switched to new battleships, and they charged through the newly opened portals.

Battleship after battleship appeared around Thanos's fleet again, and they fired.

This time, however, Thanos's fleet had already started moving in formation, and wasn't as slow as earlier.

Except for the two unlucky b*stards that were heavily damaged by Joseph and Mindy's combined firepower, the other donut battleships were only slightly damaged at most, which didn't affect their combat ability.

Thus, the situation returned to normal.

Ursa Minor B Team, which was clearly outnumbered, immediately fell into an extremely arduous position of resistance.

This situation persisted until a streak of lightning charged down and smashed into a donut battleship.

Ursa Minor B Team already had the best pilots in Earth's fleet, and the battleships which Luke assigned to them were of above average grade.

Coupled with Strange's manipulation of the portals and these consecutive attacks from ten battleships, they held their own.

In comparison, less than five minutes after he appeared, Thor single-handedly destroyed two donut battleships with one ax.

This was the true value of a top galactic power.

With a person like this as the vanguard, he boosted his teammates' determination and confidence.

At that moment, there was someone else at Thor's level.

Taking advantage of Ursa Minor and Thor's outstanding performances and the chaos on the battlefield, Knight, who had silently activated his strongest stealth ability, arrived two minutes later.

At that moment, half of the second batch of Ursa Minor B Team's battleships had been destroyed, and half were heavily damaged.

Joseph and Mindy received a private message from Knight, and they decisively steered the three battleships under their control (two under Joseph's control) toward Thanos's fleet.

Half a minute later, the three battleships finally couldn't withstand the focused attack from Thanos's fleet, and were turned to dust by countless energy cannons.

The two sides were very close to each other when the Ursa Minor battleships exploded.

After the explosions, four huge holes suddenly appeared, and four vibration pulse cannon blasts shot out.
