Dusk did not want to entangle with this rogue group at all. If they won, there was no gain. The main fleet did not lack the life force of the Source Gate, and the Source Gate would rather choose to surrender than to have their life force taken away; if they lost, then there was no need to say anything.
They were smelly, hard, and useless. Since the temple master of the Sea Kingdom had appeared, the 37 battleships were no longer interested in fighting for a Source Gate that did not cooperate with them.
Dusk discovered them very early on and wanted to go around them, but it did not expect that it was still discovered by them. Therefore, going around them became the best evidence that they thought they were afraid.
More than a dozen Source Gate forces lined up together, even if they were rogues, they still had a huge momentum.
Usually, there should be a few hidden forces lurking in the dark, motionless, and sealing energy fluctuations. Before they were activated, it was very difficult to detect them. It was very troublesome to deal with them. Otherwise, the Source Gate would not be called the space rogues.
He didn't know where they had gathered from, but there were all kinds of races. Perhaps, if he won, this would be the only reward he could obtain.
Dusk was listless, but he still meticulously arranged the war preparations. He really wanted Chu Yunsheng to take out the pseudo forbidden weapons and kill these annoying Source Gate rogues savagely. But this was not a reasonable way of fighting, and Chu Yunsheng would not agree to it. Relying on the pseudo spirit's aura and the forbidden technique that could backfire, they needed to deal with the greater danger – the spiritual beings.
Even if the 37 battleships were unwilling to fight, they did not have the right to choose, so they became the main force of the battle. The Wu Nu people and Dusk still had to hurry up to complete the follow-up design of the new battleships. Once they arrived at the destination, they would immediately start the construction.
If they had a new battleship, at this time, they would not even pay attention to these guys. They would directly speed up and get rid of them.
Unfortunately, they still had to fight.
The thirty-seven ships were the elites of the elites that had been eliminated in various battles. They all had the ability to fight a lone Source Gate lifeform to the death. The only difference was that some could fight a higher-level Source Gate lifeform, while others could only fight a lower-level Source Gate lifeform.
Under the coordination of Dusk, the overall combat power was far from a simple addition. Of course, the other party was not an addition, but the 37 battleships still had the advantage in number.
In the first wave of long-range confrontation, the 18 galactic hooligans were shocked. They had never thought that this fleet, which had been so wretched and fearful just a moment ago, would actually have such a powerful combat force.
Usually, when these Source Gate Venerables banded together, they would be able to dominate an area and disregard all enemies in places where there was no Spirit Lord. At this moment, with the sudden change, they were just like Hou and the others. They were also shocked by this fleet of powerful warships. Where did they come from?
It seemed that there had never been a fleet with such a huge combat power on the battlefield before.
Some of the Source Gate Supremacies who were hit even cursed the commander of this fleet in their hearts. They were clearly so powerful, but they actually pretended to be wretched and wanted to escape. Was there a need for that? Was it interesting? A bunch of shameless people.
They didn't know what Tao Wu and the others were really thinking, so they were secretly angry while they regrouped.
In the previous wave of long-range combat, they had suffered quite a bit because they were outnumbered. The weakest of them, the Source Gate, had lost half of its life form.
Of course, life forms didn't matter too much to them. The Source Space formed by their 18 Source Gate techniques was not something that could be destroyed in one blow. It still firmly restrained all energy fluctuations in this area.
In order to end the battle as soon as possible, both sides used their strongest attacks and weapons in the second round of confrontation.
In an instant, the violent dark energy was extremely chaotic. It actually forcibly "blew" the smooth space up like a convex lens. From afar, whether it was the 37 warships or the 18 Source Gate lifeforms, they would occasionally enlarge and protrude on the spatial mirror bubble like bubbles.
It looked very comical. A warship that was originally long had become a long snake with a swollen stomach in the middle. An Source Gate lifeform whose entire life form looked like a giant eye on the convex surface of the space looked abnormally ferocious.
Tao Wu was also shocked. It wasn't because of the giant protruding eye, but because of the expanding space that was constantly being blown up like a convex lens. He hurriedly ordered, "Quickly retreat, this is a space-time bubble!?"
On a macroscopic scale, the universe was smooth like the surface of a mirror. There were no visible ups and downs, but on a small scale, any space-time was not calm.
Tiny particles like photons were born and annihilated, and the short-lived ones might appear and disappear in an instant. To the microscopic scale of space-time, they seemed to carry extremely high energy, like a group of extremely small volcanoes that constantly erupted and boiled. However, when it returned to the macroscopic scale, they all "disappeared".
The various microscopic weapons of the thirty-seven warships, together with the binding and yoking of space, energy, matter, and so on from the Eighteen Source Gates, briefly intertwined with everything. The brutal dark energy magnified the fluctuations on the microscopic scale, causing a deviation from the smoothness of space-time on the large-scale. Space-Time expanded like a convex lens.
Tao Wu didn't know whether the particles that were magnified by the violent dark energy were the particles in the material weapons launched by the 37 warships or the virtual particles in the space theory. If it was the latter, it would be troublesome. If it was the former, it would be slightly better.
The 18 Source Gates probably also realized the danger, and they all tried their best to force their way out of the convex lens. However, the situation of the 37 warships was worse. The warships were huge and had a lot of materials. Once the materials on the warships were affected by the space-time bubble, they would soon be annihilated in the vacuum.
This was actually a long-range, high-sophisticated strike weapon. The Wunu people had it and were proficient in it. In the emergency signal sent to Tao Wu by Tao Wu, there were three types of weapons that they had created based on this theory.
According to Tao Wu's solution, the 37 warships used the dark energy that the Drow were optimizing for them to stabilize the fluctuations of the material structure. One by one, they carefully drilled out of the convex lens space-time bubble.
When both sides had withdrawn, there was one less warship in the opposing Source Gate. There were only 17 warships left, and they probably died inside.
Looking at the convex lens bubble, it had gradually calmed down, and everything inside had turned into nothingness in the annihilation of the bubble.
"Strange, why did it suddenly affect the smoothness of space and time?" Tao Wu repeatedly checked his command and the monitoring map of the movement of all energy and matter on the battlefield, but he couldn't find anything. It was as if the situation just now appeared out of thin air.
Tao Wu had always been very interested in this kind of problem. He said excitedly, "Give me a copy of the battlefield record just now, I will study it."
Neither of them noticed that the fifth sequence, who was hiding in the small cube cabin at this time, was sneakily closing and completely locking the model in the core database that had just become restless.
Ever since that model had something extra, it had been feeling uneasy and nervous. It was afraid that something would happen to it. It had to look at it several times a day to be a little relieved.
"Should I tell 95827? Should I? "it murmured to itself, turning anxiously in the small cabin.
Its speed was very fast. The life form of the Drow gave it the ability to move at high speed. In a blink of an eye, it had turned more than 900 times …
"Fifth sequence, where are you? I need your data here … "
Tao Wu was startled by the sudden message sent by Tao Wu. It suddenly stopped in place, and there seemed to be countless phantoms overlapping on its body until it stopped.
…
After a short interruption, the battle continued.
In view of the strange situation just now, both sides once again pulled away from each other to a relatively safe position, and then continued to attack each other with all their strength.
Tao Wu didn't want to be entangled with them too much. He took the opportunity to pull away from them and retreated while fighting, trying to get rid of them. Moreover, the other party's secret plan had never been launched.
The seventeen Source Gate lifeforms could not be said to be weak, but under the layers of barriers and traps set up by the thirty-seven battleships, their faces were covered in dust. Their advantage gradually turned into a disadvantage, and they were gradually at a disadvantage. The distance between the two sides was about to increase, and they finally succeeded in escaping.
Although they did not have an advantage in numbers, the remaining 17 Source Gate experts all believed that for a fleet, they had the advantage of time. As long as they entangled with the other party, the weapons and materials of the battleships would be used up one day. In the dark realm, there was no replenishment. It was foreseeable that they would be defeated and conquered. This was also proved by countless experiences.
No matter when, they were a galactic race and had an absolute advantage. Otherwise, they would not be loved and hated by the galactic races to the extreme.
However, today, they felt a little stifled, as if they had all their strength but could not use it. Every time they wanted to use the Source Gate technique to attack, it would be inexplicably extinguished before it could even form.
They should have been evenly matched, but it turned into a situation where their side was gradually losing, while the other party always advanced and retreated, and their fleet was well-organized.
They did not know that this was Tao Wu's usual style of war. Its favorite strategy was to not let the other party use their strength no matter how strong they were. This was the best and most optimal state of war.
In the starry sky above the 17 Source Gates, three dark shadows were looking down at the battlefield, hiding in the darkness.
One of them said, "I think we should forget about it. Even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses. Tell them not to chase us."
The second one agreed. "Yes, this fleet is not weak."
The last one was also the one hiding the deepest. Even if the detector passed by, it might not be able to detect it. At this time, for the first time, there was a slight fluctuation. "No, let the second team intercept them according to the original plan."
The first shadow was puzzled. "Why?"
The shadow that was hiding the deepest said, "I'm not interested in their fleet anymore. I'm interested in their commander. Look below, we have so many Source Gate experts, but we can't display the advantage we should have. It's chaotic, while the other side is orderly. Why is that?"
The second shadow agreed without hesitation. "Yes, we still need an excellent commander."
The shadow that was hiding the deepest said with a slight fluctuation. "Tell them that the target has changed. Don't care about those battleships anymore, just capture their commander alive!"

There was only one more night watch today, so they came back late.
