Chapter 132: Fire a Star Destroyer Cannon at the Blue Planet’i
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Attack!”
At Seth’s command, the six accompanying fleets launched a furious attack towards the h.e.l.lfire Point, guns blazing.
Seth felt some dissatisfaction deep within him. Such a monumental task of destroying Earth, and it wasn’t a.s.signed to him, but to Kether, who was always chummy with Moro.
Destroying Earth was a significant feat!
Miro, by his side, also expressed his discontent, grumbling, “Big brother is biased, handing this task to Kether instead of me…”
The battle near the h.e.l.lfire Line raged on incessantly for an entire day.
The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p belonging to Zhao Yu faced ma.s.sive destruction, forcing Li Zongheng to request reinforcements from other lines of defense. Simultaneously, he sent an application to the lunar base.
“Commander, Li Zongheng reports a large-scale enemy attack on h.e.l.lfire Point, likely attempting to breach it once again…”
“He requests reinforcement from other military bases…”
The entire first defensive line consisted of 12 military bases, each with nearly twenty thousand wars.h.i.+ps on average.
The Fifth Military Base, where Li Zongheng was stationed, had nearly forty thousand wars.h.i.+ps, counting the additional twenty thousand that were there for support, besides the regular twenty thousand.
However, within a day, over twenty thousand wars.h.i.+ps were destroyed.
“The enemy’s firepower is immense. They’ve been playing it cool until now, and it seems they’re planning a large-scale attack!”
Uncle Da’s face hardened. He hadn’t expected the enemy to organize a counterattack so soon.
Zhao Yu, on the other hand, looked excited. He asked, “How many of our latest generation of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps, equipped with a particle black hole thruster, have been built?”
“Thirty thousand escort s.h.i.+ps, twenty thousand shuttle s.h.i.+ps…”
“Great! All s.h.i.+ps, take off and intercept them at a speed of 500 Mach…”
The main reason the enemy dared to attack on such a large scale was because they believed that Zhao Yu’s side had limited s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p speed due to their late Stage-1 civilization status.
“I hope they’ll send more s.h.i.+ps. That way, we can catch them all at once!” Although their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps still used third-generation nuclear fusion for their energy systems, the propulsion was not too far behind that of the enemy. According to the simulation, fifty thousand wars.h.i.+ps should be more than enough to intercept the enemy’s hundred wars.h.i.+ps.
“Boom -“”Boom -“”Boom
One after another, wars.h.i.+ps near the h.e.l.lfire Line were destroyed.
Just as Li Zongheng was about to organize a new fleet of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps for reinforcement, he suddenly received a message from Zhao Yu.
“Do not use the latest model s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps. Keep those yet to be revealed at the Fifth Base. We can summon some s.h.i.+ps from other bases…”
“Also, let the enemy fleet enter without resistance…”
“This time, 1 want to play a game of trapping the enemy and striking hard!”
Li Zongheng was overjoyed.
He had known about the creation of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps with particle black hole thrusters at the lunar base for a while, and a fleet was ready at the Fifth Base as well.
But Zhao Yu had never let him reveal this. Now, it seemed like Zhao was planning to use this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the enemy.
With this thought, Li quickly held off the ready-to-launch s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps, and sent orders to the nearest military bases to each send five thousand wars.h.i.+ps for reinforcement. They should not rush, and travel at the maximum speed provided by the third-generation nuclear fusion power.
Given the distance between their military bases, reinforcements would not arrive in time, but the gesture was necessary. It could also increase the enemy’s sense of urgency, prompting them to break through without much thought.
As expected, not long after, Li Zongheng noticed that the enemy’s attack had doubled again. Many wars.h.i.+ps on the front line were destroyed, and the number of damaged s.h.i.+ps was approaching thirty thousand.
Another hour pa.s.sed, and when the number of s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps near the h.e.l.lfire Line drastically reduced to a thousand, the enemy’s Tenth Fleet finally charged. Leading the way was a large s.h.i.+eld wars.h.i.+p. It was purely a defensive vessel, equipped only with an energy s.h.i.+eld.
Combined with the energy conversion efficiency of a particle black hole, its defensive power greatly surpa.s.sed that of laser systems.
After all, laser defense systems primarily intercepted attacks and released energy with losses. This energy s.h.i.+eld, however, only consumed energy when it was attacked.
In just half an hour, the s.h.i.+eld s.h.i.+p endured millions of strikes, but its energy s.h.i.+eld was only half depleted.
By this time, the Tenth Fleet had reached the h.e.l.lfire Point.
“Attack!”
Kether shouted.
Following this, other attack wars.h.i.+ps emerged from behind the s.h.i.+eld s.h.i.+p, firing an array of high-power, high-impact weapons.
The attacks from Zhao Yu’s side caused only ripples on the enemy s.h.i.+elds.
However, the enemy’s attacks could destroy Zhao Yu’s s.h.i.+ps in one blow.
The offensive and defensive capabilities of the two sides were not on the same level.
In just a flash, hundreds of wars.h.i.+ps were destroyed.
“Captain, there are too many s.h.i.+ps to destroy. We need to break through as soon as possible. We’ve detected that nearly thirty thousand s.h.i.+ps from nearby military bases are on the way. Once they arrive, we won’t be able to escape if we’re held up…”
Their wars.h.i.+ps were advanced but were just one generation ahead of the enemy. If they were to be surrounded by thirty thousand s.h.i.+ps at close range, they would face certain death once their energy was exhausted.
“Alright, let’s break through!”
The Tenth Fleet only had nine s.h.i.+ps, less than the usual ten in a fleet since their tenth shuttle s.h.i.+p had already been destroyed.
The nine s.h.i.+ps ceased fire, weathered numerous attacks, and broke through the encirclement at a speed twenty times faster than the nearby base s.h.i.+ps. “Haha, 1, Kether, have performed a great feat this time!!”
After leaving the h.e.l.lfire Point, Kether couldn’t stop laughing.
Once this line of defense was breached, there was basically no suspense. They just needed to evade the enemy s.h.i.+ps blocking their way and reach the vicinity of the Earth.
“Captain, there are about fifty thousand enemy wars.h.i.+ps 30 million kilometers ahead…”
“What does the simulation say?!”
“With their s.h.i.+ps traveling at a speed twenty times slower than ours, they can’t stop us!”
“Great!”
Kether laughed heartily, boasting confidently: “Send a message to Earth, tell them we’re coming to destroy them…”
“Haha!”
Everyone laughed.
These days, everyone had seen the att.i.tude of Moro towards Earth.
Especially after their shuttle s.h.i.+p was blown up last time, and Earth’s sarcasm under the guise of concern had left them furious.
“Notify the battles.h.i.+p to fire a star-destroying cannon at Earth…”
“Yes…”
“Captain, according to our current position, our shot may not reach Earth and could be intercepted by enemy s.h.i.+ps…”
“No problem, 1 don’t plan on destroying Earth with this cannon. 1 just want to let them know that we, the Glen people, are here.. These d.a.m.ned giants who only know how to spew rhetoric, will meet their end!”
