Chapter 654: Fierce Battle and Gradually Facing Disadvantage
Against the backdrop of the gray starry sky, a dim crimson circular battleship is slowly rotating. It is huge in scale, and its radius may be similar to that of an interstellar fortress.
Black and red warships surrounded the ring, forming a mixed array consisting of a large number of frigates and fortress motherships.
These two types of spacecraft have powerful defensive capabilities in themselves, and the joint shield they build to cover the entire ship is incredibly strong.
However, in the empty gaps of the mixed array there was something strange, a crystal clear hexagonal crystal column tower.
Energy glows on these hexagonal towers, connecting all the energy pathways in the fleet.
These are void energy transfer stations. They do not require materialized energy links, but can transfer energy throughout the entire fleet through a large number of nodes.
These energy transfer stations greatly make up for the energy supply shortcomings of the joint shield.
Allows large fleets' covering shields to absorb damage at the same refresh rate as small shields.
Under the protection of the joint shield, many warships naturally have a safer firing environment.
Moreover, the Void Energy Transfer Station has more than just this function. It can also speed up the charging speed of the main gun, charge the armor at a long distance, and its built-in stabilization device can resist various energy interferences.
This huge fleet can, to a certain extent, be seen as a whole.
This is the Sissoko family’s heavy fleet - the Immortal Fortress!
In the central circular battleship command cabin, Sissoko stood on the command platform. They had already docked with the Imperial fleet on the scene and synchronized all battlefield data and intelligence information.
"The fleet that suddenly appeared, ahem... it's a completely different development direction from the mainstream civilization's technology. It's really interesting."
Sissoko looks like a tall and thin man, with skin that is unusually pale, which makes his overall temperament tend to be gloomy.
He was wearing an exquisite blood-red dress and occasionally made dry coughs when he spoke, and it was obvious that he did not seem to be in good health.
The Sissoko family's reputation within the Star Empire is not too strong.
Unlike the Morgan family, they are the main controllers of the Imperial Colonial Corps.
It is even less like the Loren family, whose elites are spread across key positions in the Star Empire and have an astonishing influence.
Among the seven noble families, they are at the bottom of the hierarchy and are mainly in charge of transportation and logistics management, although it seems like a lucrative job.
But compared with other nobles, there is still some gap.
However, the modern Sissoko is ambitious. He knows that it is basically impossible to change the deeply rooted and intricate system network within the Star Empire under normal circumstances.
Therefore, he could only start from other directions, such as raising his own status and strength.
Therefore, he used some methods to force himself to become a super life form.
Unfortunately, his approach both succeeded and failed.
Due to his current half-dead state, it is difficult to change the current situation of the Sissoko family.
Moreover, due to the backlash caused by the special circumstances, his body was almost always in a state of weakness.
There is almost no way to make up for this evolutionary deficit.
His last hope lies in the giant tree of life of the Life Titan.
"Tell that kid Lehman that I will temporarily take over the supreme command. With his experience, it will be difficult for him to support this war."
Lehmann's body was slightly hunched, which seemed to be caused by years of dry cough.
The information was quickly delivered to Lehman, and the relatively young heir to the empire looked unhappy.
However, he also knew his own shortcomings, and this level of interstellar battlefield did make him feel pressured.
It is a good choice to give it to Sissoko now.
"Okay, hand over the final command." He did not hesitate for too long and quickly gave the order.
A salvo from the Republic's main guns once again shook the Imperial fleet's combined shields and tore a hole right in front of them.
Other firepower ships immediately seized the opportunity to unleash massive amounts of artillery fire, widening the breach while quickly killing the Imperial warships inside the combined shield.
Inside the Republic Fleet's joint shield, the long and narrow Star Destroyers formed a dense firepower formation under the cover of frigates.
Together, they created a space-time gate in the starry sky, and then activated their own super main guns, directing the firepower of the entire fleet into this space-time gate.
A powerful energy surge destroyed the gate instantly, but before the gate on this end collapsed, a fire vent appeared inside the Imperial fleet's combined shield.
Thousands of bright energy beams swept across everything like exploding "thorn balls".
This is the serious consequence of the fleet's joint shield being breached.
In addition to the space-distortion field, the joint shield is also an important reliance on resisting cross-time and space attacks.
When the shield is intact, the trans-temporal strike can only occur at a distance from the array.
But if the combined shield damage rate is too high, a specially enhanced hypersonic strike can penetrate into the fleet array.
This is equivalent to dropping a fragmentation bomb into the enemy's body . After silent fireworks, large areas of warships on the battlefield are reduced to ashes.
However, after this extremely powerful raid, large areas of space distortion suddenly appeared behind the Republic fleet, followed by a dark blood-red torrent that suddenly erupted.
A large fleet emerged from the blood and quickly rushed towards the enemy's joint shield.
This blood light was like a sea of blood, and when it spread in the space, it looked like a spectacular glowing nebula.
It is also like a long wall of light between liquid and solid, spanning more than tens of thousands of kilometers, roughly long and narrow, but with no fixed shape.
Amidst the floating blood, the first to rush out were a group of giants hundreds of meters tall. These giants had a roughly human appearance and were wearing heavy armor.
Their fighting style was very primitive. They held various mechanical ice-cold devices and fought with the Force Warriors of the Republic.
Due to the heavy armor on his body, he can rush into the enemy's warship and trigger a chain reaction even when he is on the verge of death.
The self-destruct devices carried by the armor turned them all into walking human bombs. The whole process was full of destructive power.
Along with the armored giant, there appeared a kind of small creature. They were even stranger, with no discernible shape or limbs. They were just like floating smoke.
These light balls will actively stick to the enemy's Force shield, and then sacrifice themselves to neutralize the Force.
In battle they always serve as the vanguard of the armored giants.
There was an endless stream of soldiers, some of them were energy balls similar to elemental creatures, and some were giant stone statues that looked like mechanical bodies but were actually based on rune technology.
Others are shadows that are not clearly visible at all and can only be distinguished when they hit the target.
A thick black color like ink spread to the middle section of an enemy ship and quickly dragged the warship into a strange space where light and shadow intersected.
This special legion also came from the Sissoko fleet and belonged to their secret force.
Because they control most of the logistics of the Star Empire, they can select the best racial resources from it to strengthen themselves.
Four powerful life forms from the Galactic Republic simultaneously set their sights on the suddenly appearing fleet.
Grand Inquisitor Jerek looked at the combined shield on the surface of the Immortal Fortress.
The dark red and turbid energy shield suddenly began to ripple violently and quickly went out of control.
The surging energy fluctuations spread out, forming layers of surges on the surface of the shield, followed by a slight distortion of space.
The enemy's frigates and fortress motherships exploded continuously like firecrackers, and the enemy's position suddenly became a sea of light.
But this situation did not last long. Several powerful life forms soon flew out from the Immortal Fortress Fleet, each found their own opponent, and terrifying energy fluctuations erupted in an instant.
…
"Is all you can do is run?" Morgan missed again and spread out his palms, leaving only the dissipating lightning in his hands.
After he noticed that Li Yu's breath was rapidly fading, he quickly gave up the idea of slacking off and instead thought about catching this guy directly.
Unfortunately, although Li Yu could not confront him head-on, with the help of the Thunder Battle Armor's cloak, he was able to get rid of the influence of the space blockade and perform short-distance space jumps.
With the help of the Time Stone and the Reality Stone, he was able to influence Morgan at certain critical moments, causing him to tangle with him for a moment.
Li Yu remained silent and looked around the battlefield due to the appearance of Sissoko's fleet and the continuous support of the Imperial Fleet.
The attack of the Republic fleet was greatly hindered, and Palpatine and others were stopped by the higher life forms of the Star Empire.
This even leads to a tendency to develop into a disadvantage.
Facing a war of this level, it would be a lie to say that he has no pressure.
Until now he is not completely sure that he can win this war.
There are only seven groups of nobles in the Star Empire. This time, two groups of nobles were dispatched directly. Together with other forces, they are enough to sweep away most civilizations.
This kind of power is basically a dimensionality reduction attack on other civilizations.
If the Star Empire had not stopped its external expansion at a certain point in time, it would have unified the known universe long ago.
As the blazing energy hit, Li Yu's expression changed slightly, the space and time nearby distorted, and he disappeared from the spot again.
"I wonder how long you can hide!" Mo Gan felt unhappy.
Just now, Li Yu's head-on collision with him did not make him so irritated. Instead, he jumped around like a flea, making him emotionally unstable.
"Just a little bit more..." Li Yu's body was under a huge burden, and the frequent use of the power of the gems made it a little difficult for him to bear it.
…
"This is the temporary star gate built by the Star Empire. It's too big..."
Nicas was a little dazed. What appeared before his eyes was a huge silver-white ring with a constantly flowing dark blue vortex in the center.
Warships continuously fly out from it, and after forming an array, they will go to the battlefield to provide support.
The volume of this stargate is more than ten times that of a conventional stargate, and can even support the passage of an interstellar fortress.
This really shocked Nicas.
"As expected of the Star Empire, they have built such a huge star gate and yet they are still able to maintain the stability of the transmission channel."
Nicas praised him a few times, but he did not forget his mission.
It's not that there are no defenses here, it can even be said that there are heavy defenses.
The Star Empire also knows that the Star Gate is their capital for rapid support and cannot be destroyed.
However, due to the four top-level life forms brought by the Republic, a certain A5-level life form that was originally planned to be responsible for guarding here was forced to follow the Sissoko fleet to provide support in order to maintain the combat power balance of the higher life forms.
This gave Nicas an opportunity.
…
DarkStar has been living a comfortable life recently. Due to his outstanding performance in the Borderlands, his importance in the Morgan family has increased.
Although they often need to cooperate with them in various experiments, they no longer have to suffer persecution and threats.
But he did not let his guard down because of this kind of life, because he knew the source of all this, and he also knew that he was just a tool in the eyes of the Star Empire.
"According to Li Yu's information, she has been found and is under protection. I should also think about how to get out of here."
He stood in front of the porthole, the huge star gate in front of him reflected in his pupils.
Not long ago, he was temporarily recruited to go to the Hisank civilization.
Because according to the news, an alien dimension camp might appear there.
Then this "weapon against Li Yu" of his might play a special role.
There was a figure standing on each side of him, emitting a powerful aura.
Maybe he is not too powerful among A-level life forms, but there is no problem in dealing with him.
"This operation might be an opportunity. If I can meet that guy..." Anxing thought to himself.
At the same time, the battleship he was on was passing through the star gate.
However, the sudden explosion disrupted his thinking. The entire battleship suddenly began to twist and the metal hull cracked.
Dark Star was a little dazed, as the originally stable Star Gate suddenly began to tremble, and a crack appeared on the silver-white ring.
It was this crack that caused the stargate to become unstable, and the twisted transmission channel directly cut off the back half of the battleship.
The battleship collapsed and he was forced into space. He could clearly sense that in the distance there was a huge energy source that was wantonly emitting its power.
Encountered the enemy so soon?
