Chapitre 186: Rain of Fire, Pt 1

Orbital Station Kappa-056, Planet Firrex, Tenlaub System, Federal Colonial Territories

Heavy cannonfire slammed into the orbital station high above the colonial planet’s capital city. Surrounding it was a quintet of Hegemony cruisers, each one circling the station as though they were vultures waiting for their prey to die.

Their sleek lines were accentuated by the thick armor and huge guns that peeked out all along their sides.

Up on the bridge of the lead cruiser, a Hegemony Rear Admiral watched as the battle unfolded on the screens in front of her. Her face was etched with a stern, stoic expression.

“Concentrate all cannons on the station’s main power junctions!” she barked. “All cruisers, fire on my mark!”

Her officers immediately set targeting markers all around the station, each one set with numerical priorities. They then spread that information to the rest of the cruisers in their fleet, who quickly adjusted their flight paths to optimize their firing angles.
