Chapter 1299: 421. Large but improper

“Beep—”

“Beep—”

“Beep—”

Whether the incoming enemy intended to board or not, the commander of the transport fleet had triggered the alarms on all the ships.

After three alarms, an adult male’s voice came from the broadcast:

“Suspicious mobile forces detected near the directed route, all units prepare for enemy engagement according to Emergency Plan BC-47. I repeat, suspicious mobile forces detected near the directed route…”

The staff on the heavy transport ship shed their white jumpsuits in the armory and slipped into black body suits scattered with numerous tiny metal discs.

Mechanical arms descended from the ceiling, opened equipment storage cabinets on the walls, and began attaching components of power armor to the staff.

In no time, the entire ship’s staff had completed their armaments with the help of the mechanical arms.

They transformed into a squad of space marines, each clad in full power armor.

Armed with power armor and an Organic Extinction Ray Gun in hand, the staff were more than a match for any organic lifeform daring enough to board.

The Organic Extinction Ray Gun had its advantages.

It only harmed organic life forms and had no effect on metal creations.

When firing upon enemies, the rays would pass through their armor and directly affect their bodies.

This handy weapon was perfect for facing humans in a boarding battle.

Noland Lee had never seen the power of the Organic Extinction Ray Gun, but that didn’t stop him from devising a targeted plan.

He had covertly added several new spells to the “Magic Leap” spell list available to players.

These were shape-shifting spells that could temporarily transform players into non-organic entities, with ‘Mud Body’ being one of the more famous ones.

With these shape-shifting spells, players could be impervious to the Organic Extinction Ray Gun.

As for the power armor on the staff…

Well…

Noland Lee thought it was better to let the players figure out how to deal with that themselves; he didn’t need to worry too much.

Noland Lee withdrew his right hand from the wall and sensed the situation inside and outside the ship.

At the same time as the staff were arming themselves, Noland Lee had used mental magic and metal magic to make some minor modifications to all ships in the transport fleet.

He had installed small devices near each ship’s shield generator that could be triggered any time to cut off their power-supply lines.

With just a thought, he could cause the ships’ shields to lose power and briefly fail before emergency power kicked in.

This would help the players bypass the fleet’s shields.

Moreover, Noland Lee had installed similar switches by the cargo doors of each ship.
