The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

Fortunately, the healing light and protective power still played a role at the crucial moment.

Admittedly, her barrier was teetering on the brink of collapse, but it was never completely breached. When the last meteorite shattered on the barrier, Anya was jolted back several steps, but she managed to stay upright.

The Valkyrie Domain behind him flickered, as if it might fall apart at any moment, and at the same time, a metallic taste rose in his throat.

"That was close."

Anya felt a surge of relief.

If she had been even a fraction of a second slower, those meteorites would not only have pierced through her domain, but would have also crashed into the fleet behind her.

By then, let alone breaking through, there will probably be very few of the remaining starships in the entire fleet left.

But she quickly put those thoughts aside, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and refocused her gaze on the road ahead.

Calga is not dead yet.

She pierced the chest of the enormous monster fish, and its life force clearly plummeted to rock bottom.

If she were given another chance to attack, she was confident she could completely obliterate this monster, which posed the greatest threat in melee combat.

However, the next second, she stopped moving.

Because in her line of sight, three more figures appeared behind the four false god's followers: Vigi, Morak, Karga, and Soth.

One of them was the very same guy who had just summoned the meteorite.

It was a tall, thin, bear-like creature with no facial features, only constantly rotating star patterns on its face, and it held a cross-shaped talisman in its hands.

The sutra plate still bears the scorching glow of the meteorite after it fell.

The second one resembles a queen insect covered in bony armor, with dozens of white skeletal limbs spreading out from its back. At the ends of the limbs hang translucent insect eggs, inside which something seems to be wriggling.

The third one was the quietest. It was human-like in stature, draped in a long, iron-gray cloak, and beneath the hood was a deathly pale face.

He held a slender, long spear of judgment in his right hand, with a black scale suspended at its tip.

Three new system panels popped up in Anya's view one after another.

[Introduction: Formerly an inquisitor of the divine civilization of the Ryankes God Realm, he switched allegiance to the Devouring Dimensions faction after being expelled from the Ryankes Star System. His Spear of Judgment can lock onto the very essence of the target's soul.]

After looking at these three panels, Anya's fingers involuntarily clenched.

Fighting four opponents at once had nearly cost her her life.

Now, it's one against seven.

Moreover, none of these seven guys were just small fry brought together by sheer numbers; each one of them was a top-tier monster capable of single-handedly conquering a small star field.

"Damn it!"

In that instant, no matter how proud and confident Anya was, her heart inevitably sank.

It's true that she can fight.

But she is not immune to death.

Moreover, she had an entire fleet behind her that needed her protection.

Inside the flagship's bridge, Renn stared intently at the main screen.

On the screen, seven crimson dots representing enemy high-energy units had completely surrounded Anya. The flashing numbers next to each red dot made the soldiers on the bridge turn pale.

"How long can the support sequence be maintained?"

"Rain asked in a hoarse voice."

The deputy beside him glanced at the data quickly, his face grim: "At most thirteen minutes. The amplification matrix is ​​overloaded, nineteen members of the healing team are unconscious due to mental exhaustion, and the shield generator only has 12% of its energy remaining."

Upon hearing this, Renn fell silent.

Thirteen minutes doesn't sound like a short time.

In battles at this level, thirteen minutes might not even be enough to complete a full cycle of attack and defense.

Even more desperately, the distress signal had already been sent out, but the subspace passage of the Starfall Rift was blocked by the army of false gods.

Even if headquarters receives the message, it's impossible for them to arrive immediately.

They were trapped.

"Your Excellency..."

Thinking of this, Renn gritted his teeth, his eyes reddening.

He knew that this fleet would most likely be buried here today.

……

In the starry sky, Anya also heard the voice on the bridge channel.

She didn't turn around, but took a deep breath, raised her right hand, and assumed an attack stance again.

Valkyrie Domain slowly straightened up following her movements, the light on her damaged armor dimmed, yet she still stood at the forefront of the fleet.

"All ships, listen up!"

Anya's voice came through the public channel, weak but steady: "Continue to retreat, maintain formation. As long as one ship can move, don't stop."

Upon hearing Anya's order, Renn immediately cried out, "Governor! You can't fight anymore! Your physical condition is already—"

"Raine".

Anya interrupted him: "I am the governor of the Libra Nexus."

She looked at the seven false god's followers in front of her, her tone eerily calm.

"As long as the fleet is behind me, I cannot retreat."

The communication channel was completely silent.

A moment later, Rein slammed his fist on the control panel and roared through gritted teeth, "All support units, continue to boost the Governor's power! Turn the ship's guns around, ready to provide cover fire at any time!"

"yes!"

The officers on the bridge had red eyes, but no one uttered the word "retreat."

In the starry sky, the seven members of the false god's kin did not give Anya any more time.

Vige Joseph slowly drew back his longbow, and the eerie green light gathered once more. Morak the Corruptor raised his bone staff, and a gray-black cursed aura spread through the void.

The dozen or so human-skin drums behind Soth trembled simultaneously, and the eerie drum sounds penetrated directly into his mental consciousness.

Calga's chest wound had not fully healed, yet he was already laughing wildly as he grabbed the double blades.

The massive body charged forward once more.

The newly appeared Starfall Sorcerer, Kairien, raised a cross-shaped magic disc, causing the surrounding space to suddenly collapse, and dozens of small starfall magic arrays unfolded above Anya's head.

The bony limbs on the back of the spiny worm mother, Celaya, thrust forward, and shards of bone proliferated in the void, blocking her escape routes on both sides.

Oldman slowly raised his lance, the black scales at the tip tilting slightly.
