Within the best viewing port on the Khorie Guard, Ronan saw a massive spaceship, its engine blazing like a bright star, the luminous trail it left behind, lit up the entire night sky.
The flat spaceship, like a glowing arrow, charged towards the No.1 Starport of the Kree Empire.
The large shield hadn't had the chance to activate, the gravity traps hadn't yet been discharged, no one could have expected such a magnificent spaceship to hurtle towards a starport in such a suicidal posture.
In an instant, like a supernova explosion, all the celestial bodies around were bombed to bits, and the ship where Ronan was, the Inspection Ship, was thrust to the other side of the star orbit by the explosion shock.
The power system was entirely destroyed, and the entire ship, like a shooting star, lit with brilliant streaks, plunged into a planet.
The violent shaking, the heart-stopping explosion, the desperate screams, years of cosmic combat experience saved Ronan's life as it enabled him to activate his safety shield before the spaceship crashed.
The Kree are likewise carbon-based beings and can get hurt by crushing, exploding, and burning just like most carbon-based creatures. The shuttle-like spaceship crashed into a planet at a speed far exceeding all endurance. The hard outer shell didn't provide any protection for the ship but brought more deadly explosion fragments to the Kree inside.
The moment the spaceship's gravity stabilizing system was damaged, Ronan was thrown onto the ship's wall. After he activated the shield, the window completely shattered, and the control room looked as if it had been kneaded by a large hand, resembling a ball of scrap paper tossed into a trash bin.
The ship's last self-defense system ejected the control room, Ronan saw first-hand - soldiers who didn't have time to activate their shields were flung out the window. Amid fresh eruptions of explosions, they were torn to pieces.
He landed with the control room, the intense impact during the landing had drained more than half of the energy from his shield, and the subsequent explosions of the control panel drained the remaining shield. By the time Ronan crawled out of the control room, his face and body were covered in blood.
"Bang! Bang! Crack! Bang!" The crashed spaceship continued to explode, the tremors continuous on the ground, making Ronan's legs feel numb. Directing no attention to his situation, he turned his head to look at the starport.
The supergiant star provided ample vision for all celestial bodies within its orbit.
Ronan watched as the radiant light from the severe explosion caused the light rays to shift, producing fantastical colors that blossomed at the central position, just like the magnificent fireworks he had never seen in the new era.
Ronan took a deep breath, stepped back, and pressed the communications device on his arm, his voice trembling: "....Supreme Wisdom, connect me to the Supreme Wisdom!! The No.1 Starport of the Kree Empire has been attacked!!"
His rage had already reached the boiling point. As the voice spread out from the communicator, it carried boundless fury, but in the very next second, he suddenly felt a chill throughout his body. His rage disappeared in an instant, replaced only by shock and fear.
Because, after the explosion died down, he saw the suicide attack spaceship's identity.
He was too familiar with the paint job on that ship. It was the flagship of the Skrull Empire Fleet and was equipped with trap and weapon projection devices, which played a leading role in terms of firepower.
His voice began to shake, Ronan trembled as he spoke to the communication device: "Skrull, it's the Skrull!! They have declared war on the Kree Empire!!"
His raised pitch and screams did not give him any more confidence. From his perspective, as a member of the Kree civilization, he knew clearly what this meant—
With the Skrull Empire launching a pre-emptive strike on the No.1 Starport of the Kree Empire, a new millennial war would likely break out.
Ronan wanted to activate the propulsion device on his armor to leave immediately, but to his despair, he found that the propulsion device was damaged along with the shield. In other words, he needed to find a spaceship in order to leave the area.
He was fully aware of the consequences of staying. If the Skrull Empire dared to shoot down the flag of the Kree Empire, they wouldn't mind taking someone important to the Kree Empire prisoner.
If inciting war was meant to encourage the people, then capturing a figure of importance to the Kree Empire would be a tremendous victory, and they would not abandon that opportunity.
Ronan surveyed the planet surface, and then he remembered that the inspection ship was equipped with a small spaceship designed to dock with a welcome ship.
The small spaceship was located in the rear cabin of the ship that had not been affected by the collision with the planet's surface. If he found the small spaceship, he would be able to leave before the Skrulls detected him.
But now without the ability to fly and with the front cabin still exploding, he needed to cross it to get to the ship's tail. Ronan looked at his almost entirely depleted shield and bit his teeth, he proceeded towards the brilliant fire from the ship.
As he was busy finding a detour, what he missed was that as the explosion gradually died down, one after another of the teleporting gates began to pop up near the starport's debris.
"Hurry up! This cabin is intact! Pull it back!"
"Berth! There's a complete berth here! … My god, there are seven or eight small spaceships here. They're in ruins, but the components should be useful. Hurry up! Pick them up!"
