Chapter 627: The Defeat of the Imperial Fleet
Somewhere outside the Bados civilization, there is an almost endless fleet lined up here. This is the temporary base of the Star Empire fleet.
In the temporary command room of this huge fleet, Pablo, the commander of the Nabus Snake Legion, is lying in a special massage device.
The Nabus snake people are quite special. Their upper bodies are similar to those of interstellar humans, but their lower bodies retain the characteristics of reptiles.
A large number of rolling massage balls were rubbed back and forth on his scaly lower body. These massage balls emitted high temperatures, which was definitely not a suitable temperature for ordinary life forms.
But he showed a comfortable expression on his face. As a snake man, cold-bloodedness is his nature, and this temperature is just enough to make him feel warm.
"Captain, His Highness Lloyd has sent an order for us to be on high alert and stay where we are." The subordinate came hurriedly to report, crawling on the ground at a very fast speed as a snake.
"I see..." Pablo seemed a little nonchalant.
"Commander, do you want to raise the alert level?" the subordinate asked after hesitating for a moment.
"Don't be so nervous. The enemy can't possibly know we are here. The operation hasn't started yet. We just need to wait for orders." Pablo waved his hand casually.
He was the only one in the entire fleet who knew the truth about this operation. They came here just for show and basically didn't need to take any action.
What's more, their whereabouts are only known to Lloyd and Li Yu, and it is impossible for them to be leaked. There is no need to be so nervous, it's just a formality anyway.
At the same time, the Forerunner fleet has been approaching here quietly.
"Sir, they are right there. It seems that they are unaware that we are approaching." Li Yu's projection appeared next to Ales.
"Heh... Nabus snakemen army, a bunch of reptiles, I don't know who gave them the courage to wade into the muddy water here."
Ales had a sneer on his face and had already issued a war preparation order.
"The main thunder cannon has been charged, and the thunder generator is ready to start..."
"Fire control system locked, radar jammer probe released."
The intelligent system methodically broadcast the status of each unit of the fleet, and Ales stared closely at the holographic projection in front of him.
A large number of high-speed shuttles passed through the enemy's formation ten seconds ago and transmitted back part of the Star Empire's fleet size and formation layout.
The photos taken from different angles were put together to allow Ales to obtain specific information, including the number, distribution, and types of ships of the enemy.
And the special legion fortress of the Nabus Snakemen Legion.
The fortress of this snake-man army is not a conventional circle, but more of a rectangle in appearance, like a huge coffin, and the whole thing is bright red.
"There are really only these fleets. What on earth does the Star Empire want to do?" Ales frowned. He thought that the force sent by the Star Empire would be larger than what Mark had detected.
As a result, after seeing it with his own eyes, he was sure that the Star Empire had only sent out these few people.
"Could it be that there are advanced life forms hidden in it?" Ales thought for a moment, but without hesitation, he gave the order directly:
"All weapons, full fire!"
Whether it is true or not, just try it and you will know!
Dazzling blue-white beams of lightning poured out from the Forerunner fleet like a rainstorm.
The bright light of psionic cannons and lightning beams cut through the darkness.
Some warships that were originally hidden in the shadows appeared as ghostly silhouettes under the illumination of these fleeting lights.
This forerunner fleet possesses a void folding attack method.
Attacks fired by battleships can ignore the attack delay caused by the long range at the cost of energy.
Dense high-energy light beams bombarded the sky above the enemy camp, which was too far away to be distinguished by the naked eye, at an infinitely fast speed.
Large patches of dazzling lightning came from the distant space, and they seemed to appear directly in front of the Imperial Fleet.
The shields of the Imperial battleships flickered violently under this violent attack and exploded directly.
"Warning, warning, unknown attack detected!"
The sudden attack made Pablo jump out of the massager, his face changed drastically: "What's going on? Who is attacking us? "
There is a reason why the Nabus Snake Legion is not well-known in the interstellar world.
The military proficiency of Legion Commander Pablo is far inferior to that of the Troll Legion Commander and the Four-Armed Titan Legion Commander.
After the initial shock, he finally reacted, quickly gave orders, and began preparing for defense and counterattack.
However, they were not equipped with void folding attack equipment and could only approach the enemy under the attacks of the forerunners.
The enemy must be allowed to enter their fire range before a counterattack can be launched, and there will inevitably be a lot of losses in the process.
The fleet of the Star Empire was still out of sight. The vast darkness of space and the artillery with amazing range meant that both sides could only observe each other through auxiliary equipment.
The only thing that could be confirmed by direct observation was the increasingly dense stream of high-energy light beams that kept coming from space.
Some of the escort warships formed a joint shield to face the artillery fire. This shield was connected to a special device that was pulled by a strong magnetic device.
They are thunder generators, with a large number of lightning arcs surging. Through the cooperation of the shield and them, they successfully blocked the enemy's firepower that was nearly two or three times that of their own.
Dense artillery fire continuously cut through the pitch-black space, and huge explosion fireworks illuminated the surrounding area in a piercing white.
The first raiding ships of the Imperial fleet came into view, and a row of bright dots appeared in the distant space.
Then in the blink of an eye, it rushed to the front of the joint shield, followed by a devastating explosion.
The dense explosions formed a curtain of flames, turning the transmitted real-life images into an unclear white expanse.
This was a suicide attack. The first batch of people rushing over were individual flying vehicles piloted by no one or puppets.
These fighter planes had no intention of returning alive from the beginning, and when they began to slow down halfway, they began to pour fire on a point on the shield.
When it was about to be destroyed, it suddenly accelerated and used a suicide attack to consume the Forerunner battleship's combined shield.
When the Forerunner fleet entered the attack range of the Imperial fleet and engaged in close combat, it finally caused some damage to the other side.
"The Seventh Fleet's shield has been penetrated, retreat!"
"Fifth Fleet Reinforcements!"
"Our attack has confirmed that we have hit the target. The result of the battle has been confirmed to be that we have failed to penetrate the enemy's joint shield. We are resetting the focus point of the attack."
"The locking system is being interfered with at close range. We are being interfered with. The ship-destroying team should clear them out immediately!"
"Energy absorber is taking effect! Enemy attacks are being absorbed."
"The main thunder gun is ready for continuous firing. The enemy has entered the attack range. The conventional artillery begins a saturation attack!"
Battle reports and orders echoed in the busy command room, and even greater amounts of information flowed through the command links.
In order to fully unleash the combat power of the fleet, Ales has now begun to take over the entire fleet.
His main men had already been armed and had been granted release.
Just like a wild horse breaking free from its reins, it rushed into the vast space, leading the fleet branch, ready to respond to the enemy's attack at any time.
Of course, they will not sit idle when the enemy is not within range.
It didn't take long to clear out the device that was interfering with their locking system.
"The interception force has been dispatched!"
"Prepare secondary defense!"
“…”
Li Yu has already stepped into the battlefield, contributing to the battle of the pioneers, paddling and so on.
He was also observing the situation on the battlefield. The Pioneer warships were indeed elite, and their ambush had caused .
However, after reacting, the huge number of the Star Empire fleet finally played some advantages.
This battle would be hard to end in a short while. Li Yu's eyes flickered as he fixed his gaze on a figure that was roaming the battlefield.
That's Alales' top subordinate - Alfonso!
Perhaps sensing his gaze, Alfonso turned into a stream of light and rushed over, flashing past him and rushing into the camp of the Imperial Fleet, still scolding in the channel -
"Get out of the way, don't block the road!"
…
The fierce exchange of fire had been going on for an hour. The dazzling beams of lightning, whose density should be more accurately called a grating, plowed across the starry sky over and over again.
This level of exchange of fire has now reached a stalemate, so Ales entered the scene, this top interstellar life form - an A5 level existence.
For this battle, he was a completely unbalanced existence, as he seemed to be a user of lightning ability.
His special abilities can work perfectly with the entire fleet, thus unleashing power beyond imagination.
A wall of lightning thousands of kilometers wide swept rapidly from below. The lightning would spread rapidly along the way, absorbing the lightning produced by the special devices carried by the Forerunner warships.
When they hit the target, they formed a fan-shaped lightning line that could cover tens of thousands of kilometers, and a large number of imperial warships were covered by these thunders.
No matter how fast they maneuvered, they could not avoid this attack with no blind spots, and most of them exploded into small fireballs in the sky.
The aftermath of this attack is that it created a space fragmentation zone with a radius of more than 100,000 kilometers. Within a few hundred years, these areas will continue to collapse and cannot be repaired.
Next, it was Ales’ home court. The Empire had not sent out corresponding strong men, so now it could only passively take the beating.
Two hours later...
"Fire support! The Sixth Squadron is surrounded! Their jump is disrupted!"
"The assault fleet will open a gap at six o'clock and retreat quickly!"
Information was fed back to the remaining Imperial fleet.
There is no suspense in the battle now. The only thing the Imperial Fleet can do now is to try its best to raid and leave.
The Nabus Snakeman Legion was directly dispersed, and most of its legion fortress collapsed. The legion commander had already evacuated the fortress on a small spacecraft.
Alfonso was currently hunting down the leader of the Snake Legion. Li Yu's eyes flickered as he shouted, "Sir Alfonso, I'm here to help you!"
He turned into a stream of light and quickly approached the battlefield.
Pablo gritted his teeth as warships gathered around him from all sides, but there were not many high-level fighters.
They were defeated .
Beyeler's sudden insertion into the battlefield raised the level of chaos to a new level.
"Mm, how on earth did these people know my location!?" Pablo's whole body was surging with tremendous power, and bright beams of light shot out of his eyes, colliding with Alfonso's power, forming a surging impact ring.
"Get away, I don't need your help!" Alfonso scolded Beyeler. He was not affected by the aftermath of the explosion and his target was Pablo.
However, at this moment, his pupils suddenly contracted, and a purple fist pierced through his chest, and the armor on his body became like paper.
"Excuse me, can you lend me your identity?"
A look of astonishment appeared in his eyes, and then the fist shook, and his body instantly collapsed, without giving him any chance to speak.
Then, the surface armor of the figure behind him quickly deformed, becoming exactly the same as him.
Then, a shriveled corpse was thrown out. It looked like a Bardos, but its arms were bright red.
This series of actions was completed in just a moment, and no one noticed what happened in the aftermath of the energy explosion.
After the dust settled, Pablo looked at the emaciated corpse in astonishment.
What the hell? I'm so strong?
He actually killed a strong enemy in seconds?
But looking at "Alfonso" who was eager to try, he did not dare to stay for too long and turned around and fled.
"Alfonso", who stayed where he was, did not chase him, but was constantly fine-tuning his appearance under the armor.
The originally dark and peaceful starry sky is now littered with the wreckage of warships.
They exploded violently in the artillery fire and turned into solid garbage that filled the space, scattering in all directions at several times the speed of sound along the direction of their initial explosion.
There was absolutely no intention of stopping until it hit something.
The shields of the remaining warships were flashing with bright lights due to the constant impact. Although it was completely impossible to break through the defense, people couldn't help but feel nervous.
Ales stood in the starry sky, overlooking the chaotic battlefield.
This was a battle in which a great victory was achieved. The loss of Forerunner warships was less than 50,000, but at least nearly one million Imperial warships were destroyed.
The casualty ratio of twenty to one was a huge victory no matter how you looked at it, and the most important factor was Ales's attack.
But he was not too happy because the war was going too smoothly.
There was no ambush as expected, nor was there any advanced life form as guessed.
They came based on the information intelligence and carried out a perfect ambush according to the plan, which seemed to be very reasonable.
But Ales vaguely felt that something was wrong. It was impossible for the Star Empire to be so ruined.
Otherwise they wouldn't have been hiding for so long.
But this time, it seemed like the Star Empire had specially sent them a wave of snacks.
At this moment, a noisy sound was heard in the channel. The fleet of the Bados civilization suffered heavy losses, reaching 300,000 ships.
However, Ales didn't care, and didn't even count the fleet destroyed by the Bados civilization as part of the war losses.
"Lord Beyeler, Lord Beyeler!"
"How could you die here? How are we going to explain this to the leader?"
Someone was wailing. Several senior commanders of the Bardos fleet were surrounding a charred corpse, wailing.
"Bayer?" Ales frowned slightly. This guy seemed to be the supreme commander of Bados's side, but he died in this war unexpectedly.
At the beginning, he was not really wrong. He is indeed a waste.
"It seems that he was blocking the retreat route of the Nabus Snakeman Legion Commander and was besieged and died tragically on the spot." His subordinate, Alfonso, wearing armor, flew over slowly and reported in a low voice.
"He's just a nobody, not worth your attention." Alais didn't care about the dead Beyeler, but ordered:
"Clean up the battlefield and look for any useful information. The Star Empire might be furious. We need to go back and regroup and discuss the next plan."
"Yes." Alfonso said in a deep voice, but when he turned and left, he showed an inexplicable smile under the helmet that Alales could not see.
At the same time, the information about this sudden battle was quickly passed to Lloyd.
