The Mech Touch novel Chapter 5123

"Our transphasic shield generators are losing integrity at a more concerning rate. The accuracy of Stingray 1 is continuing to rise and the puelmers are becoming increasingly better at reading our maneuvers. Their laser cannons have lowered their damage output to a third of their maximum power, but their firing rates have doubled because of this shift!"

Transphasic laser beams pelted the space around the Spirit of Bentheim like rain.

Each time a laser beam threatened to strike the factory ship, it briefly lost intensity as it passed through the Saint Kingdom of the Macharia Excelsia before it slightly drained the integrity of the forward transphasic shield generator.

The damage inflicted by each individual laser beam was not much, but the adaptations made by the puelmers increased their hit rates so much that they were putting the Spirit of Bentheim under greater pressure!

The much more numerous yurzen warships had yet to properly open fire at this time!

Reports kept pouring in as the Spirit of Bentheim gradually entered into greater danger.

Ves could not stop himself from looking up the data that described the performance of the superdrive, the first-class power reactor and the first-class transphasic shield generators. _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}

Each of these high-end ship systems played a crucial role in enabling the Spirit of Bentheim to function as a 'battlefactoryship'!

None of the production lines and other non-essential systems were operating at this time. The production workers had already shuttered many of those machines or temporarily shipped them to other friendly ships.

This not only prevented a lot of expensive equipment from suffering needless damage, but also reduced the Spirit of Bentheim's total mass.

The ship needed all of the maneuverability she could get, because by this time the larger and more threatening yurzen warships had begun to open fire with their laser weapons!

The volume of fire directed towards the Spirit of Bentheim ballooned at once!

"We are under heavy fire!"

"Increase the warp factor of our superdrive!"

"The accuracy of the long-ranged directed energy weapons of the yurzen warships are much worse than that of Stingray 1 and Stingray 2. Their armaments are also infused with considerably less phasewater, so their successful strikes also inflict less damage to our defenses."

The situation appeared to be a lot more dangerous to the human capital ship, but the situation was still under control.

Ves began to grin in the face of all of these overwhelming attacks. The differences in technological sophistication and power mattered a lot. The yurzens showed many inadequacies as their more primitive warships struggled to land their shots against the factory ship that was taunting the aliens from a distance.

In truth, the yurzen vessels did not excel in long-range combat at all. They were all designed and built to fight at much closer distances where fancy tech and advanced production methods made much less of a difference.

As long as they could get within knife-fighting range, the yurzen warships would be able to unleash their full arsenal and overwhelm any opponent by relying on quantity alone!

The aliens could make this happen as long as they engaged the warp drives of their warships and took the initiative to get closer!

However, the puelmers apparently forbid them from doing so because that would play into the hands of humans.

The yurzen aliens had no choice but to restrain themselves and continue to play escort to the partially crippled Stingray 1.

"We need to give the aliens more reasons to fear our might! Venerable Stark, are you able to add your firepower to the fight?"

Situated in the maw of the gigantic cat head prow, the Amaranto laid prone as she carefully adjusted the aim of her Instrument of Vengeance.

Despite the steadily shrinking distance, Venerable Davia Stark struggled to formulate her firing solutions when the Spirit of Bentheim was not only surrounded by a warp bubble, but also adjusted her course on a frequent basis.

Nonetheless, she was not considered the most accurate marksman mech pilot within the fleet for nothing!

"I am preparing to open fire." The guest pilot stoically announced.

Davia Stark resonated increasingly more with her masterwork mech. The Amaranto responded a lot better than usual, not just because she had recently begun to cultivate on her own, but also because her battle partner had recently passed the threshold that classified her as a high-tier expert pilot!

Any pilot whose resonance strength had begun to exceed 40 laveres truly started to set themselves apart from their low to mid-tier colleagues.

A small but significant qualitative transition took place at that point that caused high-tier expert pilots to exert much greater power in all of their actions.

The Amaranto was an expert mech that was solely dedicated to long-ranged combat, so Venerable Davia Stark was able to employ all of her true resonance and skill towards offense!

She did not even bother to invest too much attention in keeping up an adequate resonance shield. The pilot put her full trust in the transphasic energy shields covering the Spirit of Bentheim and concentrated on landing an attack on the smaller and more elusive yurzen warships.

As the Instrument of Vengeance started to glow, the manifestation of the Illustrious One appeared and seemed to grant the charged weapon an additional boost that caused it to glow in radiant rainbow colors!

From an outside perspective, it was as if the giant cat head's mouth was about to launch a multicolored breath attack.

It was a pity that the Instrument of Vengeance was a relatively outdated luminar crystal weapon.

The long mech rifle did not possess any transphasic properties like the much more powerful Instrument of Doom.

While the latter weapon was much more suitable to be employed against tough and damage-resistant warships, its accuracy and precision at extreme ranges were much worse.

This was why the Amaranto had set the powerful transphasic luminar cannon aside for the time being. The expert mech could always switch weapons once her targets came a lot closer.

Sweat poured from Davia's brow as she continued to work through all of the complicated variables that affected her firing solutions.
