The battle quickly came to an end. Eron's fleet didn't even have time to arrive at the battlefield before the battle was over. The remaining 30 to 50 Rebel Army warships fled in the direction of the stargate, but they were chased by Aurelia's fleet. Judging from the current distance between the two sides, the Rebel Army's warships wouldn't have time to activate the stargate before they were all destroyed!
"Damn! What the hell is going on? Is that NPC commander a genius or an idiot? "
"And what weapon was that just now? Isn't that too terrifying? It could destroy a fleet with just one shot! "
Amon was perplexed on his flagship. He simply could not understand how everything had happened in the short span of less than an hour!
It should be known that a space war was never something that could be resolved quickly. With thousands of battleships clashing, it was impossible to determine the victor within months. It was even normal for the battle to last a few years. In the end, in just a few dozen minutes, after one shot from a superweapon, the Rebellion Army's fleet was crippled. Then, they shut down their shields and allowed the enemy to attack as they pleased!
The strongest defense of a battleship was definitely not some high-tech alloy armor. No matter what kind of metal was used, and no matter what ratio, there was a limit to its defense. In the face of the constantly increasing energy of the battleship cannons, even the strongest armor would not be able to withstand a single blow.
The most powerful defense of a warship was the shield. As long as it had enough energy, it could resist the opponent's attack. Only some specific weapons, such as phase missiles, could ignore the shield. However, the power of this kind of physical weapon was far less than the energy cannon, so the armor alone could resist for a long time.
But once the warship turned off its shield, in the face of the destructive energy cannon, even a powerful warship would be vulnerable. That was why the Rebel Army's fleet was almost wiped out in such a short time!
The greatest power of the Slaughter Warhead lay not in the damage it caused when it exploded, but in the powerful electromagnetic interference it released. This would cause the enemy's spaceship to be completely space-time, and the engine, shield, and weapon system would all fail.
In addition, the phase beacon carried by the Slaughter Warhead was also very lethal. Because the Slaughter Cannon used by Aurelia this time was relatively close to the attack area, the function of the phase beacon was not too obvious. If this was a cross-galaxy attack on a planet, then the power of the phase beacon would be reflected.
For example, Aurelia used the Slaughter Cannon to aim at the Valsalrian Army's capital planet, Mengsk! Once the Slaughter Bullet reached its target and detonated in the atmosphere of Mengsk, the consequences would be terrifying.
First of all, the Valsalrian Army battleships near the Slaughter Warhead would be destroyed. Secondly, the orbital defense facilities within the gravity well range of Mengsk, as well as the other battleships of the Valsalrian Army, would become ineffective. Then, Mengsk would become a stable phase beacon, allowing Aurelia's fleet to warp directly from the Empire's territory instead of entering the Valsalrian Army's territory through the Domini System's stargate.
Through the phase beacon of the Slaughter Cannon, Aurelia's fleet could easily complete the decapitation operation and directly attack the capital of the Valsalrian Army. This was the true purpose of the Slaughter Cannon!
If Jiang Fei and Aurelia had not wanted to delay as much time as possible and were unwilling to end the game as soon as possible, they would have been able to destroy the Valsalrian Army in one fell swoop and unify the entire universe.
However, if they had done that, the game would have completely lost the possibility of continuing. Once the game was shut down and the server shut down, the operation of the entire universe would be threatened. At that time, Jiang Fei and the others would all be finished. Therefore, for the sake of their own lives, although Jiang Fei and the others had the ability to destroy the Valsalrian Army, they had been holding back.
It was not until today that Aurelia could not help but show off a little bit of her strength. She used the Slaughter Cannon to destroy the huge fleet of the Resistance Army "players."
After the Resistance Army's attack was thwarted and completely annihilated, even if they were "players," even if the Development Team tried their best to subsidize them, these guys did not give away their battleships for free. They were all bought with real money, and not everyone was rich. So after the battleships were destroyed, many Resistance Army "players" went bankrupt. Without a certain amount of time, they would not be able to make a comeback.
Aurelia's clean victory did not give the "players" on both sides of the Resistance Army and the Empire Army a chance to farm money and experience. So even if the Development Team wanted to subsidize them, the Resistance Army would not be able to organize another counterattack fleet for a while.
On the other hand, Eammon was also unable to attack, because the Valsalrian Army had built a large number of orbital defense facilities. If they wanted to wear them down bit by bit, it would take a lot of time.
"Commander, we should pursue the enemy now, rush into the territory of the Valsalrian Army, and attack their capital planet!" Eammon asked Aurelia for a battle.
"Our Universe Empire is a peace-loving country. Although we resolutely attack the enemy forces that invade our territory, we will never invade the territory of others!" Aurelia's reply was righteous, but anyone who heard it would roll their eyes.
If this was said by a politician, it would be fine, but Aurelia was the fleet commander who had attacked the Valsalrian Army several times. How could she not think of this righteous speech when she was rampaging through the Valsalrian Army's territory?
"Commander, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Eammon said, unwilling to give up.
"If you want to fight, go ahead. The Empire's military expenses are limited. Such a large fleet assembly is a heavy burden on the Empire, so I have decided to withdraw my troops!" Aurelia said.
"What?!" Eammon was completely dumbfounded. He still could not figure out Aurelia's thinking. If he were to say that she was an idiot, then no one could stop her when she was fierce. Thousands of battleships were instantly destroyed in front of her. But if he were to say that she was a genius commander, then she actually turned a blind eye to such a rare opportunity. This made Eammon very puzzled.
"Okay, there's no need to say more. Good luck!" Aurelia said and cut off the communication, then ordered the fleet to prepare to return.
"Ah!" Eammon was so anxious that he slapped his thigh, but there was nothing he could do.
A few days later, Aurelia's huge fleet withdrew from the Domini System in batches and returned to their respective garrison areas. Aurelia also returned to Planet Skoda with her core fleet. Before returning, Aurelia did not forget to personally supervise the dismantling of the Slaughter Cannon.
