"Boom!"
One by one, the Halberd warships were engulfed by the light of the explosion.
There were originally ten, but now there were only three left. They had no intention of escaping. Surrounded by countless pieces of metal, they were still trying their best to maintain their firepower and continue to create bigger holes in the ground.
The other warships were the same. Although they had been blown up, the moment before they exploded, they fired a large number of missiles at the melted holes in an attempt to make the holes bigger.
All of this was to create an opportunity for the Annihilation Warships behind them. Currently, they had created five holes big enough to accommodate the Annihilation Warships, but the Evaporators did not repair them.
However, this was not enough because Ershi Flotilla had already proven that blasting holes on the surface would not be able to blow up the city of the Evaporators.
They needed to send the Annihilation Warships deeper into the city, for example … the large internal space where the pompoms were now. If they exploded there, it might have a huge impact.
"Boom!" Just as Lin was thinking about this, another warship was destroyed. A large number of pieces of metal pierced through its body. Just like the previous warships, it fired all the missiles it could before it exploded in an attempt to make the hole bigger.
Although there was a possibility that the hole would be blocked, they did not care too much … After creating another hole that could fit the Annihilation Battleship, the battleship also dissipated into dust.
"Almost all the Halberd warships have been destroyed. Now only two are still holding on!"
On the other side, the captain was reading the system report in the captain's room. At the same time, he was also looking at the situation outside …
Ershi's fleet near the monitoring station was now completely surrounded by countless pieces of metal. The light of the explosions kept flashing, and the fleet was slowly dying …
"Looks like we can only take a gamble …" the captain said. "Two Halberd warships, retreat with all the troops here!"
The moment the captain's voice fell, all the warships that were still in the fierce battle stopped firing at this moment. Then, one by one … they disappeared from where they were, leaving only metal pieces floating in the air after losing their targets.
Then, a certain part of the space station trembled, and a large amount of smoke and dust filled the space station.
This … The captain had blown up the teleporter in the space station, but this was not the end. The Annihilation Ship that had been hiding in the distance … had now appeared behind the Evaporator City.
In the void, one could see these battleships blossoming with brilliant colors one after another.
…
"… We've successfully arrived!" They were in the void near Ershi.
A large number of battleships … and a small number of guardian spaceships instantly appeared under the starry sky. They were the ones that fought the Transpiration earlier. Most of the battleships were covered in scars, and their ammunition was almost depleted.
"Captain, 70% of the fleet has returned safely."
The captain looked at the damage figures reported by the system. Towards this number … it seemed to be acceptable. Most of the losses were from the small escort fighters. The losses to the large ships were relatively low.
"I got it …" The captain said, "Contact all air force commands, we need to act quickly!"
At this moment, in the void …
Kaboom!
The Evaporator City was still flying slowly. Its appearance could be described as … 'devastated'. Countless cracks spread across the entire city, and huge black holes were everywhere. These holes were not caused by the outside, but … the result of the energy gushing out from within the city that blasted the surface open.
Not long ago, the Annihilation Ships had started to move. Ten Annihilation Ships, one after another, were blown to pieces.
However, only one of the Annihilation Ships used the hole dug by the Halberd Warship. The rest of the Annihilation Ships crashed into different locations.
This caused a huge impact. Lin felt that this explosion … might have damaged close to 50% of the area.
It seemed that the Evaporator City did not mitigate too much of the attack, but this 50% was not concentrated in one place. It was scattered all over the city. The number of destroyed parts added up included the ones inside the city.
Therefore, the size of the Evaporator City was not much smaller than before, but … the city now looked as if it was about to disintegrate, as if it would fall apart with a single hit.
The main reason for this was that one of the Annihilation Ships had entered the Evaporator City, which was the large space where the pompom was.
Lin did not know how they entered. The warp engine was a type of fast, short-distance teleportation engine. According to the data, this type of engine had almost never made mistakes.
However, during the previous battle, there were two mistakes. Once, the warp engine was teleported to another detection station … If that was the Evaporator's doing, then the second time, the Annihilation Ships appeared directly inside the Evaporator City. The Evaporator should not have done this.
However, even after being blown up to this extent, the Evaporator City was still moving slowly. It was about to come to a stop.
Not far in front of it was the space station.
There was nothing left in the space station. The teleportation device inside had been blown up, so the Evaporator could not use it to reach Ershi.
But would the Evaporator have any other way?
Lin continued to observe the situation. The metal pieces that attacked the Annihilation Ships had surrounded the space station, starting from the outer shell … They were slowly disintegrating the space station.
At the same time, Lin also noticed that as the space station was disintegrating, buildings were slowly growing on the surface of the shattered city.
It was as if the Evaporator was building new things while disintegrating, but the buildings were not like the space station. They were just ordinary … buildings.
What was the Evaporator thinking?
The space station was slowly disintegrated by the Evaporator, leaving nothing behind. The metal pieces also returned to the city. They drilled out of the various cracks in the city and then …
It seemed to have stopped.
The Evaporator stayed there and did nothing. Other than a bunch of buildings on the surface … the city did not change at all. The metal pieces flew in and did not come out.
After staying there for more than 3,000 seconds, the Evaporator did nothing. It did not repair itself, nor did it increase in size.
It seemed to be waiting for something … On the other side, Ershi's fleet was still preparing.
