Chapter 2691 The Battle of Ekvoria II
"Gramite, the first and second drops of blood are yours. They're great, load them up immediately and aim at the enemy's large ship next time."
Just when Soshiyang issued a commendation message to the Viper-class missile destroyer, it seemed that he was stimulated by similar destruction. The Space Necromancer fleet suddenly increased its speed and opened fire.
This was the second time he saw this turquoise lightning passing through the void. The first time was the terrifying world engine. As the enemy attacked, the alarm whistle howled on the bridge of the Imperial spacecraft. In response, the Imperial lasers, macro cannons and all weapons began to shoot at the enemy.
However, as soon as the two sides exchanged fire, more empires were at a disadvantage.
The devastating arrows shattered the Void Shield in a bright flash and cruelly ripped open the spaceship inside. Across the entire front, 16 ships, no matter how big or small, suddenly disappeared, including a strike cruiser Blue Ice from the White Temple!
The enemy paid almost no price, but just destroyed two small ships.
"How could it be..."
This exchange ratio was something Soshiyan had never expected. He clearly saw a harvest ship being bombarded by the main gun of the Longbowman (Goth-class cruiser), but the scar actually healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
He knew that the ship could be repaired automatically, but the speed was too outrageous.
At this time, the two sides had entered a chaotic battle. The crescent-shaped spacecraft was rapidly firing green energy, passing through the frigate and detonating one by one, sending the burning wreckage into the cold void. The fighter formations in the Imperial Fleet also flew out of the mothership one by one, but did not join the battle immediately, but just waited for Soshiyang's instructions.
Soshiyang had previously set up a very standard three-line array, which could concentrate firepower in one direction to the maximum extent. His idea was to "kill" the opponent before he left the planet, but the defense and speed of the Fear of the Dead Warship was still beyond his imagination. Now a line of the third line has been cut. Small human warships and even medium-sized ships like the Moon class have no resistance. Even the newly built new star frigates of Ulan Huda cannot even fight against those jackals. The four new star frigates that originally belonged to the White Temple have been sunk 2, and one has been severely damaged. They are all new ships that have just left the dock...
The only thing that is thankful is that before the war, Soshyan considered the fear of the deceased and had basically never used the Jump Gang in the past battle with the Empire, so there was no interstellar warrior stationed in the fleet, and only the fourth company of the White Temple remained on the flagship, so the ship's losses did not bring any serious losses to personnel (Astadt).
But this was enough to make him very annoyed. In the past, he used the performance and power of warships to crush his opponents, but this time he became the side with the performance disadvantage, which made him quite uncomfortable. And when he remembered the fleet combat report and images he watched after leading the Phoenix Army to the Tax Clan to win the battle last time, from Aida's perspective, the Tax Clan fleet was slowly and tragically resisting meaninglessly...
Is it the same for the human fleet in the eyes of those who fear the deceased?
Thinking of this, Soshiyan became even more angry. He really regretted not bringing the Avesta at this time, or if he could add the fleet of the Astral Knights, he could definitely crush these dead people.
After all, he was a little arrogant, thinking that with all kinds of preparations, he would be enough to deal with the ships who feared the death, but he did not expect that the performance of the warships of the two was such a huge gap.
Close-up firefighting means the fiercer situation of the battle. Frigates and destroyers embraced themselves into groups of ships, using their numerical advantage to shoot at the lightning-fast attack ships. The main ships behind them formed shelling lines to cover the enemy's moving routes as much as possible.
In the void, beams, plasma, shells, green arcs, and fuzzy particle whips are depicted as a tragic purgatory of war against the backdrop of the casting world.
In addition to energy weapons, the Fear of Dead also brought another terrifying thing that spreads death. After entering close combat, each harvester released three night shroud bombers.
The Dark Night Shield is a space necrotic space bomber whose origins can be traced back to the Battle of Heaven and is a famous relic in the ancient war of doomsday. This fighter was originally built to carry the sphere of death - a force field container that imprisons tiny fragments of antimatter with electromagnetic force, which are kept inconsistent with other matter in the universe until the sphere explodes, releasing a huge wave of pure gamma energy annihilation that can destroy almost anything within range.
At the same time, it also has two twin-connected Destroyer main guns, which are enough to pose a threat to large ships. Its speed and defense can also allow it to fight against enemy fighters without any disadvantages. In the intelligence and evaluation given by Aida, the bomber must be dealt with by advanced aircraft such as Hemlock or Void Phoenix.
The strike cruiser Thunder, belonging to the White Temple, became the first victim. At that time, it was working hard to attack a jackal attack ship, but under the bombardment of three strange metal balls, the shields all collapsed, and the armored shell was immediately exposed to the void. Three night shroud bombers turned at a speed that was enough to crush a mortal pilot's internal organs, broke out from the coverage of the warship's anti-aircraft artillery, arranged into a new formation, and howled towards the injured spacecraft.
These crescent fighters lined up in tight spiral flight postures as they opened fire, and then fired lightning at close range, causing a series of explosions on the flanks of the cruiser.
The severely damaged cruiser immediately attracted the bloodthirsty vultures. Two Elegy-class attack ships circled around it in an incredible maneuverable manner, as if they were having a feast. In just a short ten seconds, even briefly, without waiting for the surrounding destroyers to come to rescue, the Thunder was completely destroyed. The explosion of the reactor melted part of the ship's shell, and the violent burst of energy caused the surrounding ship to roll significantly, and the thrusters kept flashing with dazzling white light.
In the communication channel, many captains began to exclaim, their voices filled with fear.
When the last glimmer of dazzling light burst out, more than one hundred thousand lives disappeared...
The undead warships continued to attack around the human ships without any damage, just like wolf fish in the water attacking a group of fish. Fighting at close range has always been the tactic that humans use the most, but now they are in a dilemma.
After more than ten minutes of battle, the Empire lost a large number of ships, but only sank an opponent's shroud-class light cruiser and two small battleships. This is even hard to call it a record...
"All captains, keep calm, the emperor is watching us, strengthen the firepower coverage of enemy battleships, and reorganize the formation."
