At this time, on the Yaoguang Angel stationed in the outer space orbit of the Sarna planet, Rear Admiral Anto Baiya and a group of fleet officers and soldiers were nervously observing the battle situation on the ground.
They don't feel very good now, and they feel like they can't exert all their strength.
It is obvious that everyone is commanding a powerful fleet that is fully prepared for combat. Not to mention the Yaoguang Angel aircraft carrier as the flagship of the fleet, we can also exclude the five light cruisers dedicated to fleet air defense and auxiliary. There are only four Clear Sky-class ships.
Heavy cruisers, any one of them can turn the wilderness of a thousand miles around Crystal City into a red field.
Void ghost? Yaxu beast? There are no occult experts on the ship, and it is indeed the first time they have heard these names. However, they are very confident. In the face of absolute power, what kind of
I heard that these monsters don’t eat live ammunition? Then at worst, just use neutron bombs to hit them. When this kind of weapon hits the ground, the high temperature of its explosion core is comparable to that of a star. What kind of monster can’t be burned to death?
To put it bluntly, it is not that the experienced Imperial Fleet has no experience in dealing with the occult, and their consistent approach has been that if there are no Lord Knights or Lord Magistrates around, then just blast them with full firepower.
But the problem is that there is a city with a population of 300,000 to 400,000 people near the battlefield. If you calculate it this way, there will definitely be no shortage of citizen families and even noble families. No matter how simple and rough the Imperial Army does, it is impossible to really
Will drop a bunch of thermonuclear bombs to wipe out the whole place.
In addition, as mentioned before, this fleet is specially prepared to support the fleet of more than 200 astral knights. There is no shortage of officers and soldiers, and there are as few as 10,000 people. However, they are all professional crew members, but they are not professional
Marine.
Major General Bai Ya considered organizing a temporary force of several thousand people and putting on power skeletons to land for support, but Shameen stopped him.
Indeed, could an unprofessional crew of three to five thousand people do a better job than the twenty thousand professional armored grenadiers on the ground?
Moreover, from the perspective of human resources, well-trained crews are very expensive, at least much more expensive than Marine combatants. The current situation is far from being desperate, whether Shameen
Neither Baiya nor Baiya could do such a cost-effective operation.
Now, all the astral knights on the fleet have landed on the ground. The strength of hand-to-hand combat is unprecedentedly weak. Therefore, Major General Bai Ya and his colleagues discussed for a long time, and they could only use the few fighters on the ship to provide air support.
.
The performance of the fighter planes was still good. Although the battlefield was extremely complex and even air strikes by the fighter planes were very difficult, they still tried their best to provide sufficient fire support to the knights.
But now, they are in orbit in outer space, and they can discover the aggregation effect of virtual energy even faster than the knights on the ground. The most advanced energy response radar has captured those very weird energy responses, and is working with them
put together in a very normal way.
Immediately afterwards, Major General Bai Ya on the bridge received feedback from the frontline fighter pilots.
"Sir, there are several giant mushrooms growing on the ground...are they mushrooms?"
In fact, Bai Ya and a senior fleet officer had already seen the live image fed back by the detector without the pilot reporting it.
At this time, in the wilderness on the outskirts of Crystal City, more than a dozen "giant mushrooms" with a height of twenty or thirty meters, or in other words, mushroom-shaped monsters, had indeed grown. The towering mushroom poles that looked like tall buildings were like
It is made of white bones, and the mushroom umbrella is made of scarlet and foul-smelling flesh. Even from an altitude of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, you can feel the shuddering oppression.
Even the battle-hardened elite Imperial crew on the bridge felt numb, and they really didn’t want to watch it again. After thinking about it, they had no idea about the knights and panzer grenadiers on the ground who needed to face these fears at close range.
They are full of sympathy.
Rear Admiral Bai Ya now knows that Shameen's previous judgment was correct. If he really organized his less professional crew members and landed in power armor to support them, he would probably collapse as soon as he encountered these big mushrooms.
Already.
At this time, he once again received feedback from the pilots on site.
"The pulse bombs are ineffective, and the blaster cannons are not effective enough. The fighter planes are returning for preparations. Major Uriel asked if proton torpedoes can be installed?"
You might as well ask me if I can hit the target! Bai Ya almost rolled his eyes and ordered: "Let them continue to monitor." Then he asked the chief of staff next to him: "Where is our dragon?"
The chief of staff hesitated for a moment: "Viscount Shameen did not approve the dragon species' attack when the communication with us was interrupted. Moreover, the knights have landed, who will ride them?"
The Yaoguang Angel now has twelve adult dragons, namely four titanium dragons, four sun-winged dragons and four rainbow dragons. They are all giant beasts with a body length of more than fifty meters. They are also star dragon species that can travel the universe with their bodies.
Each dragon and their trusted knights can be regarded as a stable psychic output platform, and their combat effectiveness is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary fighters.
However, these behemoths that are tens of meters long often require a wide living space of thousands of square meters and a dedicated breeding team of dozens of people. Tons of nutrient-rich food must be provided every day.
Now, you know why the Yaoguang Angel, a three-million-ton giant armored aircraft carrier, only carries less than a hundred serious fighters, right?
"Wait and see. If the same situation occurs in Crystal City, the real dragons will have to attack. Tell Ms. Tiltaibah clearly, and she will understand." Major General Bai Ya said.
Tilteba is the oldest of the twelve dragons on the ship. He is nearly three hundred years old. His intelligence is the same as that of humans. Although his temper is a bit weird, he is not unreasonable.
Fortunately, the situation in Crystal City quickly returned to normal. According to radar feedback, at least within the entire urban area, the aggregation of virtual energy has completely stopped.
Bai Ya breathed a sigh of relief and began to ask what happened below. He soon learned that this was all the work of Colonel Yeager Soback. He got a batch of alchemy tools from Tantai Jing, and then They used salutes to hit the whole city, and then suppressed the power of the virtual realm in the city.
"What a noble and brave young man!" Bai Ya sighed, with a tone of admiration or appreciation.
"Don't he know that the master above hates Lan Jiufeng even more than Victoria Li? Even if he saves the citizens of the city, he will offend the big shot."
At this time, there seemed to be a burst of cheers on the screen. Everyone looked closely, but they saw a giant mushroom more than 20 meters high being pushed down by the grenadiers and knights.
The good news doesn't stop there. Another communications officer reported that although the "Silent Fleet" they encountered just now has jumped to another galaxy, it has now turned back and will arrive in half an hour at most. Their Although there are not many live ammunition prepared on the battleships, they are all large battleships that have been "sinked" after all. There are four to five thousand stormtroopers on board, and there are thousands of fighter jets in good condition that can attack at any time.
In addition, the reinforcement fleet coming from Lion's Den Fortress...well, no matter how hurriedly they are, they will still have to go through four jumps, and it will take at least more than a day to get to the scene.
"The situation is not out of control yet, please continue to observe."
"At least we should be able to hold on until the support fleet arrives."
"According to the current situation, maybe the following problems will be solved before the support fleet arrives, right? After all, Count Seliola is also here, as well as Tantai Jing from the Community."
Seeing that the officers were having a heated discussion, there was a young second lieutenant radar officer sitting on the edge of the bridge who was hesitant to speak. He really wanted to interrupt, but he really didn't dare to disturb the officers' good mood.
The second lieutenant called up the infographic he had observed and read the data above again. He finally made up his mind, stood up, and squeezed to Bai Ya's side with an almost rough movement.
"Your Excellency, I just caught a trace of abnormal information flow."
Bai Ya was startled for a moment. He looked at the young man and determined that he was an elite who had just graduated from the Royal Naval Academy in July this year. He then asked, "Can we intercept him?"
The young man shook his head helplessly: "I have tried it."
"It's encrypted? Can you tell what kind of secret language it is? Also, what is the nature of the signal? Source mass wave? Or beam signal within the star system?"
"This is not a matter of encryption or not. This is really special... Well, I have never seen this kind of signal before. However, the spiritual induction radar does have a very weak response."
If he were an ordinary bureaucrat, he would definitely feel that this young man came here specifically to tease him, and he would probably have nothing good to say. However, as the admiral of the dedicated support fleet of the Astral Knights, Anto
·Rear Admiral Bai Ya must be among the best among the talented Imperial Navy, so he became alert at that time.
"Psychic induction radar? Where are the other detection instruments?" he asked.
"It's just a spiritual induction radar." The second lieutenant replied.
Bai Ya had completely suppressed his smile, turned around and shouted to the adjutant: "The entire fleet has entered a state of emergency combat readiness. Yes, be prepared for a space war to occur at any time! This is actual combat preparation!"
He didn't know if his order was unnecessary, and he was not a psychic, but he only knew that when it came to mystical issues, it would never go wrong to be prepared in advance.
Rear Admiral Anto Baiya's order was not wrong. Just when tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in the entire fleet were entering their respective combat positions, the fourth planet in the Sarna system was 80 million kilometers away in real time.
, a violent energy reaction suddenly erupted on a desolate planet without life.
Of course, due to the long distance, only the high-power radar on the battleship can capture it.
However, when these energy reactions were fed back to the communicator on the Sarna planet, signals of life reactions had already appeared.
Feifei and Yani sat side by side on the top of a big tree on the highest peak outside the Lord Valley. The former looked at the data displayed on a light screen opened by the latter, and took a few more glances to confirm those
The beating numbers really represent life responses.
"I remember that Planet Sarna 4...is indeed lifeless, right?"
"At least not yet. Of course, it has an atmosphere, a little oxygen content, and a certain amount of solid water at the pole. Overall, there is a possibility of life." Yani smiled: "Generally speaking,
Well, it’s almost the same as Mars in your solar system.”
Feifei nodded, looked at Yani meaningfully, and said with a smile: "Even you probably can't do this."
"I think you misunderstood me too much." Yani said helplessly: "I am also an ordinary girl. I just want to live happily and fall in love happily."
"Hehehehehe" Feifei's smile became brighter.
Yani curled her lips and said: "Let's talk about what happened on Sarna 4. In fact, this kind of thing has not happened before."
"oh?"
"The closest ones are the five emperors who emerged from the hinterland of the Valery Sector of the Empire fifty years ago."
"Didn't you do that?"
"This kind of rumor is so hurtful. Although our alliance is not a good person, we are not anti-human or anti-civilization!"
"Oh" Feifei said in a long voice.
The Five Emperors is the code name of the vicious head of the Void Realm. As the name suggests, he possesses the abilities of the five known Void Realm lords, and his combat power has directly soared to the level of the King of the Void Realm. He is currently the most powerful known to mankind.
The cosmic ferocious beast. When such a being descends in the hinterland of the empire, the destruction caused can be imagined. The huge body that covered the sky and the sun rampaged across the entire star area, directly defeating the entire imperial guard fleet of the empire.
All the Titan ships leaving the station were severely damaged.
The previous leader of the Astral Knights also fell in the battle against the giant beast that covered the sky.
In the end, only Emperor Elansel personally took action to kill him on the spot.
"Of course, the current reaction is different from the last incident of the arrival of the Five Emperors. At least, I can be sure that the crack in the virtual realm that was created just now has been repaired. The reaction of the life on the opposite side should be that it was hidden in that star from the beginning.
The ones in the planet are just activated now." Yani thought for a while and then said: "This kind of thing has happened before, the most famous one is the Shuput incident a hundred and fifty years ago. The Imperial Shuput incident
A colonial planet in the special galaxy suddenly suffered a structural collapse, and an ancient Yumon snake emerged directly."
"I know that. The space Leviathan is also called Galactus. All 45 million people on the planet Shoput died. Weren't you the ones who did that?"
"I've already told you that these are unfounded rumors." Yani said: "In comparison, don't we have the same over there? One hundred and twenty years ago, the New Maple Leader Planet in the Alliance's Sunset Sector was also destroyed by Galactus.
It was destroyed and thirty million people died."
"Yes, that's why everyone is saying that this is the empire's revenge." Feifei nodded.
Yanni stared at Feifei expressionlessly, who shrugged and spread her hands: "Isn't that what everyone said? Yu'er said that the eyes of the masses are sharp... Okay, okay, let's get down to business. What do you think?
, there is also a sleeping Galactus buried in that planet? I remember that after the New Maple Territory incident, the Ethereal Temple took the lead, and all countries took action to launch a large-scale coalition against the Galactus across the galaxy.
Clear them up and conduct in-depth inspections of every inhabited planet. Now, if this kind of big snake still exists in the Milky Way, it is estimated that it has been driven to the center of the Galaxy and the Abyss Nebula."
"The alarm on inhabited planets has naturally been lifted, but that may not be the case for non-inhabited planets." Yani smiled and said: "When Count Salvin was alive, there were still many Galactus in the universe, maybe they were
What surprise has it left for us a hundred years from now that spans nearly two centuries?"
Feifei thinks this makes sense, but she really doesn't know why.
"I can't understand it either. If Count Salvin is trying to take revenge on the empire, the greatest harm caused by these actions is only to the ordinary people, and will not hurt the vitality of the empire at all." Yani also showed a suspicious look.
However, she immediately laughed and said: "Of course, no matter whether it is the first Star Eater or the first five emperors, even if it is the first Ether Dragon King, it is still a headache for the empire. Let's discuss it first.
Let’s take the next step.”
If a Five Emperors really emerges, it's hard to say what will happen to the empire, but everyone on Sarna Planet, which is "so close", will definitely be in trouble. Wait...
"Is the cosmic legend of the Ether Dragon King true?"
"I'm just making an analogy."
"Then it's true." Feifei nodded firmly.
Yani pretended not to hear, and did not reveal her awareness at all. She just smiled and said: "The harvest this time is quite rich. But, Feifei, do you want to play a big game with me?"
