"Reporting, 20% of the target's volume has been destroyed … but … the target's volume has increased by 100%."
"…"
Under the stars in the void, dust and debris floated in the air.
On the left side of the original City of the Steamers, a large part of it had disappeared. The place where it disappeared was filled with dust and debris. It used to be a part of the city, but now, it had turned into dust.
This was the effect of the Annihilation Ship. The second Annihilation Ship had successfully embedded itself into the crater created by the fleet's bombardment. The explosion caused by the Annihilation Ship destroyed 20% of the City of Transpiration.
The power was not ideal. The captain thought that even if it could not destroy the city, it could at least blow up more of its volume.
However, the captain still carried out the order calmly. After all, there were many Annihilation Ships. As long as they continued to attack and used the appropriate method, they could destroy the city.
However, after the captain heard the System's report, he could no longer remain calm …
"It increased … by 100%?" The captain looked at the screen in disbelief. The City of Transpiration had indeed become … bigger. It had doubled in size.
"Sir, the missing Lemming Ship No. 1 went to Monitoring Station No. 3 for unknown reasons," the System said. "It has returned."
"…" The captain remained silent. Although he wanted to know why the Annihilation Ship had disappeared, he was more concerned about the current situation. If the city had grown to such a size … then the previous strategy would not work.
"Can you contact … the exploration teams trapped underground?" the captain asked the System.
"I can receive some blurry signals. Unable to communicate …" the System said. "But most of them are still alive."
"Is that so? That means they are not under attack, "the captain said." We have to use a new strategy … "
At the same time, on the other side …
It seemed like … there was nothing here.
This was … the jungle under the South Pole. Lin would occasionally pay attention to this place because she had created an excavation unit here. They had been digging deep into the ground to search for Ershi's organs.
However, they had dug almost a kilometer deep and still did not find anything. Although this depth was shallow compared to the entire Ershi, it was enough to detect the Star Bus's organs.
However, she was still unable to detect it. During the excavation process, there was nothing but a large amount of hard rocks. This made Lin think … there was a possibility … no matter what, she had to continue digging.
Then, Lin continued to pay attention to the battlefield. The Transpiration City had now doubled in size. This was actually a second merging phenomenon. Another project site had already merged with this one.
During the merger, the construction site would … change shape. They would absorb the various buildings on the original construction site and replace them with Ershi's buildings.
Therefore, it could be seen that the surface was filled with buildings on Ershi. As for the types and placement of these buildings, it seemed to be completely random. There was no planning or construction involved.
If all the projects were combined, the city of the Transpiration would become as big as Ershi. That way, the fleet would have no chance of destroying it.
The Transpirators may have intended to use this combined … project to make direct contact with Ershi and carry out their plan, allowing Ershi to act as a … temporary controller against Midgard.
However, did they really need this temporary controller? Were the Transpirators really unable to control themselves?
No matter what, they were still moving forward. Seeing this, the captain could only continue to think of a new tactic. That was … to enter the huge project and blow it up.
The main reason was that when they approached and bombed, the Transpirators did not attack at all. This made the captain want to take a gamble. That was … to get close to the target and plant explosives.
To be precise, they would place … a teleportation locator inside the target and blow up a large enough space.
This was because they could not send anything into the interior of the Evaporator City, nor could they send objects into places that did not have enough space. Therefore, they needed to open up a space in the Evaporator City that was large enough for the 100-meter-long Annihilation Ship to enter and locate the coordinates there. Only then could they destroy the entire city.
Under normal circumstances, this was impossible. However, the Transpiration City did not seem to be attacking. It only moved forward. Therefore, the captain saw a possibility.
However, Lin felt that they had a better idea. For example, they could dismantle the Annihilation Ship and send the explosives inside the city, or … in any case, let's just wait and see.
"Sir, the surprise attack fleet is ready."
"Good, let them move forward. Remember, this is the only chance … We don't have any more time. Fire at full power!"
As soon as the captain finished speaking, the fleet fired again. On the Transpiration City, the pompoms with the clones heard the roar of explosions again.
Ershi Flotilla focused their fire again and aimed at one place. However, Lin realized that the roar of the explosion this time …
It was not simulated by Lin from the ground. It was in the air.
"Sir! The enemy has activated their defense! "
"… What?"
The captain looked at the screen in surprise. Above the Transpiration City, a large number of objects appeared one after another. These objects looked like huge, rusty pieces of metal.
They blocked most of the fleet's fire. The missiles and lasers inevitably collided with them. The few attacks that bypassed the defense and hit the ground did not cause much damage.
"They … are moving?"
These metal pieces did not only appear at the place where the fleet focused their fire. A large number of these metal pieces appeared above the entire city.
The moment they appeared, they flew toward Ershi Flotilla at an extremely fast speed.
"The target's attack will arrive in one minute!"
It felt like a torrent of metal garbage. However, these things covered an area of more than a thousand kilometers. It was enough to swallow the entire Ershi battleship.
