章 257: Chapter: 257
"All pilots of the Nova Corps, listen up! Connect your ships together and form an aerial blockade. We must not let the Dark Aster land on Xandar!"
On Star-Lord's side, the plan is proceeding smoothly, and Nova Prime has issued new combat orders, instructing all pilots to stop the Dark Aster from advancing further.
Each individual ship of the Nova Corps appears insignificant before the massive Dark Aster. However, when they combine through an energy force field, they form a vast net that envelops the Dark Aster, preventing it from moving forward.
To offer an analogy, it's like an enlarged version of a floating cannon unit forming a protective force field to safeguard the capital of the Nova Empire on the ground.
...
"Ronan, our ship has been breached, and the Nova Corps has joined the battle. We need to abandon the ship!"
As Star-Lord and the Nova Corps approach, Nebula comes anxiously to Ronan.
"Continue with our plan. As long as we can land on the planet's surface, nothing else matters."
Ronan, the commander who led his fleet to victory by destroying the undefeated 807th Legion of the Nova Corps, remains calm and composed even in this unfavorable situation. He quickly makes decisions and responses.
Upon hearing Ronan's direction, Nebula's restless heart calms down a bit. "Lower the safety doors, seal the control room, and ensure a smooth landing of the warship! As for Gamora and her new friends, leave them to me!"
...
"Halt, Gamora! You shall not pass here. This will be your grave today!"
In the engine room, Nebula and Gamora finally confront each other in a narrow passage. The engine room holds the circuitry that links the entire warship's control systems. If Nebula wants to maintain the current advantage, she must protect the engine room to allow the Dark Aster to land successfully.
On the other hand, Gamora needs to turn the tide in their favor and gain control. To achieve that, they must first deal with the obstacle in front of them—Nebula.
Just as Gamora was fully focused on watching Nebula's movements, preparing to draw her own dagger and engage in a deadly battle with her—bang!
A gunshot suddenly rang out, and Drax directly pulled the trigger of the Hadron cannon which was exclusively customized by Rocket and had not yet had a chance to demonstrate its power.
Indeed, its power was remarkable, just as Rocket described—it could blast a hole in the ship's hull. After it struck Nebula, the remaining force even broke open the door of the engine room, showcasing its destructive capability.
Gamora looked at Drax, seemingly surprised by the unexpected turn of events, and was somewhat stunned.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm just speeding things up and saving time. Don't tell me you all think that because I'm strong, I must be simple-minded.
When she was getting ready for close combat. I will give up our advantage and attack her. I'm not that foolish!
And your sister can be really annoying with all her nonsensical chatter. She hadn't won yet, but she kept blabbering away. I just couldn't stand it, so I gave her a shot."
After hearing Drax's explanation, Gamora couldn't really blame him. She didn't even want to admit to herself that she intended to engage in hand-to-hand combat with Nebula because that would make her appear even more foolish than Drax.
"Alright, you did well. You guys take our secret weapon and continue forward to the warship's control room. I'll go to the engine room to deactivate the power to the safety doors!"
Gamora entered the control room, found the power control for the safety doors, and prepared to shut them down.
But suddenly, she felt a gust of wind behind her. Instinctively, Gamora bent down and rolled on the ground, narrowly avoiding the sudden attack.
"Don't think you'll succeed easily, Gamora!"
Although Nebula suffered a powerful blast from the Hadron cannon, thanks to her body enhancements, she managed to recover after spending a bit more time and thwarted Gamora's plan before it could succeed.
"Don't be like this, Nebula! You know what kind of madman Ronan is. Helping us to fight against him is the right choice." Despite being faced with her sister, whom she had grown up with, Gamora still felt somewhat reluctant to engage in a life-and-death struggle with her. So, she tried to persuade her.
"I know perfectly well what I'm doing. Don't think you can give me orders anymore. Thanos is not here now, so I don't need to listen to you!"
Nebula activated her weapon at maximum power, unleashing an electric light that would strike Gamora's vital points.
Bang! Gamora crossed her daggers and blocked the attack. Knowing that persuasion was futile, she went all out to counterattack.
As an older sister, Gamora's fighting skills were much more sophisticated than Nebula's straightforward approach, and she gradually gained the upper hand, disarming Nebula.
"Surrender, Nebula. I don't want us to kill each other."
"You won't be able to do it, Gamora. I won't give you that chance..." Realizing her defeat, Nebula didn't hesitate, and without any delay, she jumped out from the hole blasted on the Dark Aster and landed on a Ravager mercenary ship. She took control of it and made her escape.
Gamora breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned to destroy the power source of the safety door, completing her mission.
Having successfully disabled the safety door, Gamora rushed to Star-Lord's side. At this point, most of the Kree soldiers on the Dark Aster had already piloted their ships and gone out for battle, but there were still some soldiers left behind to protect the warship.
However, she didn't expect that things were much smoother on Star-Lord's side. Groot, who usually appeared as a simple-minded character, displayed formidable combat abilities. He grouped all the charging Kree soldiers together, much like a string of human candied haws.
Furthermore, in addition to Star-Lord, there was also the powerful floating cannon unit sent by Baymax, closely following them.
In a matter of moments, they managed to deal with Koraath, the lead of the attacking team, who served under Ronan. The remaining scattered soldiers without leadership were no threat at all.
Having reached the front of the control room, the group exchanged glances, preparing to face Ronan directly.
Boom! With the safety door lacking power support, it couldn't withstand Drax's Hadron cannon and shattered.
Star-Lord wasted no time and rushed into the control room. He stuck to his strategy of not wasting words and immediately went into action.
He didn't even bother to test with the Dominator first. Instead, he used the weapon of mass destruction, the Antimatter annihilation bomb, and activated its firing mechanism.
The outcome was beyond anyone's control. The projectile flew toward Ronan's chest like lightning and was about to hit its target in the next moment...
