Chapter 1296: Pole circling method

The United Bureau’s Interstellar Insurance Group provides insurance services for players.

By paying sufficient premiums, players can obtain insurance money after their ships are destroyed.

The amount of insurance money is roughly equivalent to half of the total cost of the destroyed ships.

This means, for the same ship, as long as players earn half the total cost of the ship and the premiums while piloting it, they have already broken even, no matter if the ship is destroyed.

This is a form of care from the United Bureau, a tangible subsidy, allowing every player to venture boldly into Deep Space Zones for battle without worry.

Teams of one to ten players took on a C-Class Task.

After entering the spatial coordinates provided by the Task into the battleship’s navigation device, hundreds of small player teams warp-jumped near the destination and began using detection devices to search all around the Resource Planets for defensive forces.

In an era where various forces can easily navigate in space, the tactics of ground-to-space combat have not changed much.

The missile bases, hidden silos, and shield field generators arranged on the planet’s surface by the Angel Enterprise Alliance were generally exposed on the players’ detection devices due to their energy reactions during operation.

Only dual-environment ships equipped with invisibility modules could fly out of the atmosphere, enter space, and catch the players off guard.

But as said before, players are not afraid of death, sacrifice, or their ships being destroyed, while the Angel Enterprise Alliance also does not have unlimited forces.

After having nearly a hundred escort ships destroyed, the players finally exhausted the enemy’s mobile forces.

Before new enemy ships could warp in, only passive defensive forces were stubbornly resisting on the Resource Planets.

The bombardment was about to begin.

Whoever penetrated the opponent’s shield first would gain the upper hand.

However, do not underestimate the players’ methods.

Normally, indeed, one must first penetrate the ground defensive forces’ shields to eliminate the threat.

But for the clever-minded players, defeating the enemy’s ground defensive forces was not the only option.

“Wait, wait, don’t rush to fire the missiles,” said the captain of a missile cruiser to his teammates operating the firing system:

“Did we bring any thug-type energy plunderers?”

Several teammates stopped firing missiles at the ground.

One of them pressed a few buttons on the control interface, pulled up the ship’s loading interface, and nodded:

“Right. There are two thug-type energy plunderers in the ship’s medium slots.”

The squad captain chuckled:

“Then we don’t need to rush to breach the other side’s energy shield. I have an idea, let me explain it to you all in detail…”

After a few minutes of murmuring discussion among the players, they all bared their canines and smiled with ill-intent.
