As long as these people are not given enough time for rational thinking and are forced to make emotional judgment, I have a chance of winning!
I hope more people will believe me.
There’s not much I can do, but wait and see the changes.
The moment Harrison Clark returned to his Hornet Ship, the opposing flagship medium-sized battlecruiser swung its gun barrel toward the remaining battlecruisers.
Needham Brown even leaped out wearing his Summit armor, pouncing on a nearby battleship.
He shouted, “Harrison, I’ll cover you guys! Get out of here!”
Following him were Daniel Thompson, Marthus, and many other new teammates.
Everyone had put on their Summit armor and launched a surprise attack on the originally defenseless battlecruisers at close range.
In an instant, chaos reigned, and the scene became a battlefield.
Daniel Thompson said, “Harrison, you guys go. Oliver Yeoman has been subdued. We’ve taken control of this battlecruiser, with Dr. Owen and Scott operating it now.”
Harrison Clark nodded and told Martha Owen beside him, “Let’s go!”
In a blink of an eye, the chaos subsided, and the Hornet Ship rose into the sky with the medium-sized battlecruiser, heading straight for Freedom Town.
Seeing that they were out of the encirclement, Harrison opened the emergency communication device and asked the people behind, “How are you guys doing? We’re heading for Freedom Town.”
Needham Brown replied, “We’ve destroyed eight of the nine battlecruisers, seized one of them, and switched it to offline mode. We’ll catch up with you now!”
“Great!”
After finishing the call, Harrison Clark devoted himself to the journey.
Martha Owen pulled up a global base military distribution map.
This map was sent by Dr. Owen from the rear battlecruiser.
She said, “Bad news. To our left is a Hawaiian Islands training base not inferior to Black Bear Training Base. According to the standard military response time, their battleships have already taken off to intercept us here. They should be able to dispatch at least two cruisers and over fifty battleships!”
Harrison Clark’s heart skipped a beat.
This was big trouble.
No matter how powerful he was, it would not be easy to escape unscathed from this large-scale interception.
Even if he managed to escape thanks to the Azure Star, the others’ chances of survival were slim.
“Can we change the route?”
“No, this is the best route. If we take a detour, more forces will be able to intercept us.”
Harrison clenched his teeth, “So, are we just going to let them capture us?”
Nora Camp thought for a moment, “No, since your armor has a stealth mode, then you can jump into the sea and escape alone. We’ll draw their attention.”
Harrison shook his head.
“No, what’s the point of me escaping alone? When the invaders arrive, and all the fleets are blown up, will I don the Azure Star and face an entire alien race by myself?”
That scene reappeared in his mind.
All of humanity’s battleships exploding simultaneously, fireworks filling the sky, grand yet despairing.
A massive spherical spacecraft hovering over Earth, emitting rays of light that he couldn’t comprehend.
He knew very clearly that if he were the only one left, there would be no real difference in how he died compared to last time.
He still hadn’t collected enough information this time around.
The next time would inevitably remain the same, and Nora Camp would still enjoy chess.
He must leave more people behind!
Especially Nora Camp and Martha Owen, as well as Scott and Dr. Owen on the other battleship.
Only with an adequate reference for escaping and exceptional researchers would there be a chance to crack the psychological infiltration during this round of time travel.
“I’ve made my decision. Either we die together or we escape together! Otherwise, my efforts this time will be futile! I have a lot to tell you all. I know you won’t believe me, and I know you won’t remember what I tell you next time. But you must trust me. I, Harrison Clark, will lead humanity to the end! I’m more determined than anyone else!”
Just as Harrison Clark’s words ended, another small battleship sped past the Hornet Ship.
Martha Owen cried out in alarm, “Needham Brown, what are you doing?! Why did you increase the power output to 300%! Your battleship has at most thirty seconds before it explodes! Are you trying to commit suicide?!”
Needham Brown’s triumphant laugh came through the communicator, “Yes. That’s right. We’re going for a suicide attack! We’ll blow ourselves up and inflict heavy damage on the interception fleet ahead. The rest is up to you!”
Thirty seconds later, a violent explosion occurred up ahead.
The blinding light permeated the sky.
The shockwave from the explosion was powerful enough to nearly tear the sea surface into shreds.
The compressed nuclear fusion engine that powered the battleship had exploded.
The yield far surpassed the hydrogen bombs of a thousand years before.
For almost eight hundred years, mankind had not detonated such a huge explosion on Earth for fear of environmental destruction.
No matter how intense the battles he had fought before, Harrison Clark and the military had not destroyed any compressed nuclear fusion engines.
Harrison Clark and the others fell silent.
No one expected Needham Brown to do this. He was so crazy and determined.
He didn’t need any reason, nor did he ask Harrison Clark why he made this decision.
But he just went ahead with it, without any hesitation..
