Chapter 568: The strategy (3)

The enemy commander must be really dumb or was too confident that he was going to win that they didn't care even after their fleet got divided. Half an hour of fighting had led to many destruction all around and both sides had lost almost an equal number of warships.

But now this is going to change!

The troops were visibly divided now. And now it was time for change in battle formation. Victor ordered half of his fleet to follow Tony and the other half to concentrate on the remaining.

But now in a very different formation. They had been using the normal mode of attack with no proper formation. Just spacious enough not to affect the other spaceships if there is destruction in one.

Nobody wants one spaceship above another when one goes down. This wasn't Star Wars.

Now the new formation that Victor was aiming at was something that needed to be handled swiftly and that too without giving the enemy a chance to retaliate when the new formation would be formed.

And for this they had the perfect weapon. The use of Phantom Zone. (I just remembered that Phantom Zone is altogether a realm in DC and not in Marvel. I am relieved that nobody pointed it out. :D)

The spaceships would enter the Phantom Zone and then come out in a totally different location, that is surrounding the enemies and that too from all directions. This would constrict the use of weapons by the enemies. The enemy warships would have to re-calibrate their weapons pointing at them and that would take some time.

That small window would be enough to cause major damage to the enemies. Moreover, the warships would surround them and they won;t be able to leave so easily. According to the calculation of GAIA, there would be a 80% loss of their spaceships but there is almost a 90% chance of winning the war.

With the assumption that they wouldn't have any major weapons that could wipe out everything.

"We would be exposed if we do this." GAIA mentioned that their spaceships had already started entering the Phantom Zone.

"We will be. But we need to end this, I don't want to see reinforcements." Victor said as he saw the last spaceship of theirs vanishing.

The people of Earth seeing this shuddered. Most of the people thought that they were being abandoned. The fight had been going on for quite sometime and there has been loss on both the sides so many thought that this was over for the side that was defending and they had given up.

After all they didn't even know the other party nor the 'good' side had communicated with them before. None would defend a stranger who had no connection with.

But people with sharp eyes could see that even if the spaceships have left, the single man in armor is still flying around and he still hasn't left with the other spaceships. This meant there was more to the plot than meets the eye.

And after a few minutes they got the answer of where they had vanished.

The spaceships had emerged from small portals and surrounded the fleet that was divided into two. The spaceships had surrounded them from all angles thus making the enemies stuck to their spot without any ounce of space from where they could escape.

Without even giving a second to think of what was going on, Victor controlled the spaceships to open fire. And this time using all the guns they had.

Even the main warship which had emerged had started shooting. The main warship had never taken a shot from both the sides as if there was an understanding between the two.

But now that understanding has broken!!

The enemies looked stunned as they were not ready for such kind of retaliation out of nowhere. Both of the divided fleet were now under attack. The fleet which had Tony was suffering more as Tony seemed like he had made a life goal of going through multiple spaceships dismantling everything from the inside.

But the basic law remained. Now matter how many shots he had been bombarded with.

Tony is invincible as none of the shots did anything to him. The fake scratches he had shown were all good now. The army of Annihilus has been fooled.

By the time the enemies changed the direction of their cannons, it was already too late. A small difference of 2-3 minutes proved fatal for them as both of the fleet lost more than 70% of their spaceships.

Their shields proved useless for the medium sized spaceships. And only the main warship held its shield intact. But it too was showing cracks, as Victor was using everything to break the shield and just kill the whole bunch of them.
