On the bridge of the Eternal Loyalty, Talos was watching the rapid deterioration of the entire galaxy through the huge main holographic sphere on the ship.
He thought he was never a master of naval warfare. Perhaps his former superior Fan Zhuode was, but in the past tens of thousands of years he had never shown any talent for large-scale command.
But now he has to shoulder the responsibility. Maximilian, the first commander of the Knights of the Star Realm, is just a warrior, and Alash, the commander of the White Temple, can hardly be called an excellent commander. As for other commanders...
The situation of this battle was very serious. Tallos could not explain to Soshiyan the survival of the Eleventh Legion to outsiders.
Yes, at least in Talos's view, the situation is really at the critical moment of life and death.
No one knew when and where such a huge worm nest fleet appeared suddenly. When the peripheral detection equipment discovered it, they were already at the edge of the galaxy, while the reconnaissance fleet patrolling in a more distant area reported nothing, and they didn't even know what was happening.
According to the mechanical priests, the secret of the movement of the nest fleet seems to have been cracked. Logically speaking, as long as the narwhal rushing ship is discovered, the trajectory of the nest can be inferred, and the change in the gravitational field is also a sign.
But this time, an accident happened. There was no movement trajectory of the narwhal ship and no changes in the gravitational field. The Hive Fleet almost touched the edge of the Westeros galaxy in a "invisible" way.
What's worse is their terrifying number.
"All fleets are ready to face the tendril fleet that is advancing towards Planet 4."
In addition to Talos, there are several figures standing around the central holographic sphere in the tactical center, responsible for monitoring every aspect of galaxy defense, mainly company commanders such as Bahram, Lossa, Maximili, and Oscar.
Talos's instructions were mainly issued by Bahram. Now the other party is the nominal commander-in-chief of the fleet. The one who replaces Soshiyan is also Talos' arrangement that he disagrees with the opposition.
During the period when Soshyan was away, the legion's decision was voted by the consul's parliament, but Ustad was not present among the five. Soshyan asked Mark to take Talos's opinion as the main opinion before leaving, and Alash also expressed respect for Talos' opinion. Therefore, despite his efforts to refuse, Bahram was pushed to the position of the fleet commander as the tenth company commander.
From discovering Tyron to the invasion of the other party, almost three standard Tyranns have passed. At least the theory of the mechanical priests has not completely unexpected. After Tyron entered the range of the gravitational field of the galaxy, his speed suddenly slowed down. In addition to the large-scale minefield that the empire had deployed in advance, the biological ships almost "climbed" toward the target, that is, planets 2, 3, and 4.
At this time, there were nearly 1.5 billion refugees and 3.2 billion local residents in the galaxy that had not been withdrawn. Such a huge population was almost a super delicacy for Tyron, so the operation mode of the Tyron fleet was very simple. The entire fleet was completely spread out, as if they had to swallow the entire galaxy in one mouthful. Therefore, even though their speed was very slow, it still brought a sense of oppression that was almost desperate.
From the perspective of humans, the Tyron fleet is striking a huge arc formation, with the entire fleet exceeding 250 million kilometers. If it is an ordinary fleet, it is to seek death if it dares to pull itself so long, but they are Tyron.
At this moment, the tactical panel of Eternal Loyal was blurred by the madly numerous ships, and the number of enemies was far beyond the limit it could display.
"For the first time in my life, I have witnessed something like this."
I wanted to take a look at the so-called Tyron Zerg Talos, and I also lamented my good luck. Not long after I arrived, I met a big wave.
"How many of this is? One hundred thousand? Three hundred thousand? Five hundred thousand?"
Relying on his chainsaw halberd, Talos stared at the crazy numbers on the tactical instrument and couldn't help but ask for a soul-searching question, but no one could answer his question.
By just hard "walking" through the minefield, tens of thousands of Tyron bioships were blown up. The vast area on the edge of the galaxy was already filled with broken carapace fragments and huge pieces of meat, and frozen body fluids floated in the fragment rings composed of corpses of the biological spacecraft.
But every time a biological ship is destroyed, twenty come to replace it.
What's worse is that the dead fleets are being reabsorbed. The tentacles of the huge biological ships extending outwardly wrapped around the fragments of similarity, ruthlessly pulling the fragments into the bloody mouth. They eat everything, bones, flesh, and even metal fragments of void thunder. Then these recycling ships will provide the digested substance to the mothership through tentacles like umbilical cords.
The Hive Mothership, this is what shocked Talos the most, and they are even bigger than the Queen of Glory.
It is like some kind of insect that has been magnified countless times, wrapped in ancient yellow chitin, and even fragments of asteroids. These miscellaneous things are glued together by the secreted body fluids, as hard as any armor.
According to Bahram and others, the Mechanical Society had always speculated that a bug-hive fleet had only one mothership, but what really happened was beyond their expectations.
At least as far as the scan results are concerned, there are more than fifteen nest motherships in this huge fleet of insect nests, or biological ships of this level!
Fifteen ships!
What does this mean? It was said that the alien inquisitor who came to Westeros said that since the first encounter with the Tyron Zerg to the present, the empire has not encountered so many nest motherships in hundreds of years!
If the division of a Hive Mothership in the Empire represents a tentacle fleet, it is equivalent to saying that the Westeros has gathered at least fifteen tentacle fleets now!
You should know that the Hive Mothership not only represents the command node, they are extremely powerful battleships themselves. Although they do not have active defense systems such as energy shields, they can still navigate the most powerful artillery fire of Imperial ships with their unparalleled size and petrified chitin shell without any impact.
Putting aside those uncountable small biological ships, these fifteen super-large biological ships are enough to stay here for a drink. However, according to the speculation of the mechanical priests, one of the fifteen nest ships must be a real "mothership", and the others are just guardians or nodes - but their theory has no evidence to prove it, and no proof plan is given.
"grown ups!"
Suddenly, a communications officer ran to the tactical instrument and saluted Bahram.
Chapter completed!
