Ivanova's Glory Starship was a huge surprise for us. Even though this kind of power had a weakness (it could only last for a few days), at least in the current battlefield, it could display its full power. This was a battle that would decide life and death in a few hours, and Ivanova's power was enough to last until the moment when the outcome of the battle was decided.
My only regret was that the Protoss couldn't receive Ivanova's protection. Schilling's shield technology and the Protoss's shield technology were too different. It could be said that they were not compatible at all. On the battlefield, only the Schilling battleships could receive the shield enhancement.
But this is already enough to make us invincible within a certain range!
"All units, fire at full power! Don't be stingy with your energy, don't hold back! "
My and Sandora's joint command spread across the entire fleet. The Abyss Schilling also announced that the time for the final battle had arrived. At this moment, both the Schilling battleships and the Abyss battleships had squeezed their power cores to the limit. Cannon fire that could no longer be described as a simple storm swept across space and bombarded the combined shields of both sides. The two armies were so close to each other that most of the main cannons didn't even need to use the hyperspace device to unleash their full firepower on the enemy. This brought an even crazier and bloodier scene to the battlefield. Blue and red psionic beams intertwined in space to form a sea of fire. There wasn't even an inch of safe space between the Alliance and the New Army. Huge starships were torn apart, and a large number of assault ships and individual battleships launched their final charge as if they were going to die!
Yes, it was the final charge. Even with advanced resurrection technology and a large number of Bee Leaders, the soldiers here would still die in batches. They might not be able to resurrect in time, or they might be bombarded by the super powerful energy and be destroyed in body and soul. Even the powerful gods would fall like ordinary soldiers here, unable to stand up again. For many of the soldiers here, this might be their final charge as warriors. But … no one cared!
"Z-5 Hidden Bomb Squad has completed their bombardment. Casualties are 60%. They are currently repairing in the aircraft carrier factory. They will attack in 15 minutes!"
"Z-7 Hidden Bomb Squad has been detected by radar. All members have been destroyed. Z-8 Hidden Bomb Squad has entered formation. They will attack in 5 minutes!"
"The joint shield has been damaged. Fortress ship, use your own shield to block it! Beware of the enemy's bombing squad. Fire all the anti-aircraft weapons! "
"This is the Abyss Independent Regiment. The first, second, and third batches of assault ships have already returned. Their survival rate is 36%. They are currently being reorganized and will move out with the fourth batch in 30 minutes!"
All the command channels were running at full power, and the blazing flames and flashes in space were woven together with the commands and reports to form a picture of hell. In this battlefield that had reached the boiling point, the commanders on the officer platform were the calmest group of people. Sandora sat in her seat and looked calmly at the holographic projection in the center of the command hall. Her deep blue eyes reflected the stars in the sky. She rarely spoke at the moment. She would only speak when the situation was critical, and most of the time …
Golden lines emerged from behind her and spread into the surrounding space. The power of the Soul Snatchers provided additional data exchange for the entire joint fleet. At the same time, it also interfered with the enemy's thoughts as much as possible. Every time there was an inexplicable infighting or self-destruction in the enemy fleet, it meant that another group of enemies had been exploited by Sandora. As a result, many of the enemies had died.
Sandora had personally entered the battle, and together with her was the Raven King.
Belavilla had awakened from her forced hibernation. She was now in a special cabin at the top of the Empire Admiral's longitudinal arm. This cabin was specially prepared for her, and it could amplify the Raven King's power. Arcane or psionic storms that looked like asteroids were constantly appearing in the space around the Empire Admiral. These huge energy balls rushed into the battlefield in groups, and each time they were attacked, they would grow stronger. They would explode on the enemy's joint shield, and the largest energy ball could even "kill" the enemy's mothership through the shield. It was more powerful than the Galaxy Cannon. This was the power of the Raven King, even if it was only a third of its power at its peak.
Belavilla still could not use her full strength. Otherwise, she would be forced into hibernation after a few minutes of battle. But even so, the powerful offensive ability of the Raven King allowed her to unleash the combat power of a mothership squadron. She had completely given up on attacking, leaving the defense to the Empire Admiral, and used the energy she saved for her own storm balls.
Even the Father and the God King of Huron were personally fighting. These two ancient gods who stood at the pinnacle of all living and non-living used their invincible power to attack the enemy's cannons and destroy the space cannons that posed a fatal threat to the Protoss. They were so powerful that only two "people" were needed to cover one side of the battlefront: the Schilling Faction's fleet attacked the front, the Protoss army attacked the flanks, and the two gods took the other side. And from the looks of it … they seemed to be doing it with ease.
Such was the power of the Coalition's offensive, but even so, the New Army's line of defense remained unshaken. The frightening white pillar of light was still expanding unhurriedly, and the Orb of Storms in the pillar of light was not damaged at all. It was even more active than before: the New Army could not find enough worlds as sacrifices, but they could still use the conventional method to charge the activation terminal, which was now almost fully activated.
Of course, the power of the Void Creatures was strong, but even Xing Chen could not easily destroy this line of defense. He could destroy the entire world with a look or even a thought, but many things created by the Xi Ling Apostles were stronger than the world. The entire activation terminal was protected by a complex and self-sustaining energy storm. This was not a simple Coalition Shield, nor was it a single device such as a damage detection system, but … a pure fluctuation of information, an endless psionic reaction!
The New Army used the annihilation of worlds to charge the activation terminal, and this process produced a huge amount of discrete energy. This energy was too powerful, and the "frequency" did not meet the requirements of the activation terminal, so the New Army let it permeate the surrounding space, forming a self-circulating energy storm. Tawil had already analyzed the operation of this energy storm, and we were shocked to find that it was similar to the core of a psionic reactor, which means … in front of us is a psionic reactor that runs through the entire universe!
It provided the New Army with an endless supply of energy. The sensitive activation terminal was unable to use it, but the "crude" shields, broadcast towers, and cannons didn't care. That was why the New Army was even more unrestrained than the Coalition Shield, and they were even able to block off the Void Creatures.
Of course, I felt that it would be impossible for them to block off the Void Creatures forever. Star Minister and Hilla's absolute power still surpassed any of the New Army's shields, and if these two ferocious individuals were slowly whittled down, it would only be a matter of time before the energy storm ran out, but how long would that take?
It might take a few hours, or it might take a few days. It was highly likely that the New Army's "great cause" would be accomplished before then.
Time, time!!!
I turned to look at Lin Xue and Xiaoxue. They had already left their "connected" status, and were rubbing their temples as they rested while giving Sandora some advice. Now that the final battle had begun, both sides had basically brought out their trump cards. Many of the Imperial Army's emperors had already appeared, and the secret of the New Army's defense line had been exposed to us. All that was left for both sides to do was to fight to the death, and the Prophet would naturally be able to rest for a while. I looked at Lin Xue, wanting to get her "permission to attack," but she still shook her head slightly.
That's right, so many people had personally entered the battle. Even my older sister and Shallow Shallow were leading the main fleet to help deal with the enemy's assault troops in outer space. However, I was the only one who wasn't allowed to participate — Lin Xue wouldn't allow it.
"It's not time for you to participate yet. The final moment hasn't arrived yet." Lin Xue's voice sounded in my mind. She sounded a little tired, but she didn't sound anxious at all. "Ah Jun, don't be frightened by the scene before you. I can see that everything is still under control … There will be a chance for you to participate in the battle. Trust me."
Lin Xue's words had never been wrong. At this moment, I could only trust her judgment. But just when was the final moment she mentioned?
"The Seventh Fleet has arrived at the battlefield!"
The sudden voice that came from the communication link was refreshing. The other armies had finally broken through the blockade and entered the Core of Tranquility!
Alleria and Odemusius appeared on the communication device. Behind them was a crystal cabin that glowed with brilliant lights. It was the command cabin of the Radiant Ring. The flagship of the Seventh Fleet was a specially built Radiant Ring. It seemed that they had just been through a fierce battle. The various energy arrays in the crystal cabin were still in a state of cooldown, but they were basically ready for the next battle. The two generals saluted us. "Your Majesty, the Seventh Fleet is reporting for duty. We were intercepted on the way, so we are late."
"No, the timing is just right." Sandora said in a low voice. Then, she ordered the Seventh Fleet to immediately fill in the weak spots of the Alliance Army.
The reinforcements had brought us stronger firepower. The Radiant Ring could also effectively counter the enemy's cannons and shielded broadcast towers, which were smaller targets. But … it wasn't enough!
Pandora and Visca were setting up the cannons of the Imperial Army in space. It was the last in their inventory. Along with the ripples caused by the spatial oscillation, huge cannons that were a few kilometers long appeared in space and quickly moved around the Admiral of the Empire. This was the most heavily guarded place in the entire fleet. As the cannons' shields were not high enough, they couldn't receive the boost from Ivanova's power. Their shields were still conventional shields. They were weak targets on the battlefield, so they had to be placed in a safer place.
"The Fourth Fleet has arrived at the battlefield!" "The Ivanthain Army has arrived at the battlefield!" "The Third Fleet has arrived at the battlefield!"
As the battle progressed, more and more members of the Alliance Army broke through the blockade of the New Army. The number of fleets gathered in the Core of Tranquility had reached an unprecedented number. This was a battle of a scale that I had never experienced or even imagined!
Everyone only had one goal, and that was to destroy the New Army's line of defense and stop the activation point that was about to be activated. All the cannons were focused on this point. With such a large amount of energy gathered together, it finally triggered a change in the structure of the world.
With the activation point as the center of the white pillar of light, the space within a radius of a few hundred light years began to collapse. A large number of strange cracks appeared in the space that was filled with distorted light. All kinds of mysterious buildings and black-and-red painted Schilling facilities appeared out of thin air before slowly collapsing and dissipating. Fortresses appeared out of thin air, psionic storm obelisks appeared out of thin air, mysterious spaceports appeared out of thin air … All of them were lifeless, as if they were strange things that had invaded reality from nightmares.
"That's the New Army's shadow space." Abyssal Schilling identified the source of these strange phenomena. "When the energy gathers to a certain extent, it destroys the foundation of the world. The weight of the Surface World begins to drop, and the shadow space is now representing the world … That's why these things appear."
"Will there be a problem?" I frowned.
"These shadow spaces are no longer of any use. All the New Army's troops have already surged out, and the shadow space is now a useless empty shell … Moreover, when the world is forcefully pulled into the Surface World when the world is out of balance, most of the shadow space facilities will self-destruct."
I didn't say anything else. I just looked at the white pillar of light in space with slight unease.
It was still growing … Although it was slow, it did not stop, and my instincts told me that this thing was probably at the final moment of its awakening … Something was supplying it with energy, and it should be the New Army's final energy facility.
I looked at the fleet and the Protoss soldiers engaged in a fierce battle in space. I looked at the flying cannons and the radiance of divine arts. These things were powerful, but obviously, they could not stop the activation point that was going berserk … There should be something more powerful, something more destructive, something that could deal the final blow to the latter.
I shook my head and put these thoughts aside for the time being. The most important thing now was to first take care of the outer defense line.
As more and more troops of the Alliance broke through the layers of blockade and entered the core of Tranquility, the New Army's defensive forces were finally at a complete disadvantage. Although they still had endless energy and a powerful psionic storm wall as a backup, the enemy troops still exploded into fireworks in space in the face of our overwhelming firepower.
At this moment, our army had actually suffered huge losses. The large and medium-sized warships that had the effect of planetary shields were not invincible. They could still be destroyed when they were bombarded by a cluster of bombardments. The nature of the damage definition system was indeed powerful, but the capacity of those spaceships' shields did not increase. Their defensive capabilities still could not compare to real planetary warships. Under the enemy's crazy counterattack, even the Royal Navy had lost almost a third of its personnel.
But despite paying such a huge price, we were still advancing towards victory. The enemy's losses were far greater than the Alliance's, and we still had a continuous stream of reinforcements arriving on the battlefield. The New Army's backup had already dried up. There were still scattered New Army fleets in other parts of the Abyss, but they were basically surrounded by the Alliance's various battle zones and could not support the core of Tranquility in time.
Victory … is ours?
When the enemy's Alliance shield suddenly extinguished and the defense line was about to collapse, I suddenly had a bad feeling. Then, I saw the white pillar of light that pierced through the entire universe … began to shrink violently!
In an instant, the strange space-time state of the white pillar of light seemed to have disappeared. The surveillance post at the edge of the universe confirmed that the white light could no longer be seen from far away. And those of us at the frontline confirmed that the pillar of light was rapidly shrinking into the storm sphere. The surrounding space shook violently. Countless cracks that led to the shadow space quickly appeared and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The colorful light curtains that looked like auroras in space seemed to be attracted by something and began to move in the direction of the activation point. It was not just the light curtains around us, but the entire universe! The entire universe's colorful light curtains were all attracted and were all gathering towards it!
At the same time, the white light ball at the core of the battlefield rapidly expanded and grew to the size of a sun. Then, it stopped in this state and began to madly absorb all the energy around it!
The psionic storm that could not be used by the activation point and the wasted psionic energy that was drifting on the battlefield all surged towards the white new star. All signs indicated that …
"It has been activated." Abyss Schilling's figure slowly dimmed. "We have lost."
The remnants of the New Army on the battlefield surged into the white light. Looking at these seemingly scattered troops, I suddenly thought of something. From the beginning of the battle until now, the enemy's Emperor-level apostles and glory starships didn't seem to have appeared at all.
Emperor-level apostles and glory starships … the cornerstone of the rapid recovery of various Schilling facilities. They had all preserved their strength and hidden their existence until now, all for the sake of …
The last New Army battleship also leaped into the white light. There must be top-level apostles with glory starships among them. They would rebuild everything on the void bridge. Everything that was lost in today's battle could be quickly restored.
They were almost completely wiped out, but they still won …?
The Imperial Army immediately launched an attack on the white new star, but it was useless. The latter had already been sealed off. Even full-dimensional psionic attacks couldn't hurt it at all!
The sudden change in the situation seemed to have stunned many people. Everyone didn't know how to react for a moment. Even Sandora couldn't help but have a momentary daze in her eyes. But at this moment, a loud voice suddenly sounded in my head. "Little brother, if a void creature suddenly got stuck in the long bridge when it was activated … how big would the explosion be?"
As the voice fell, the dazzling white "star" suddenly seemed to be attacked by something. It trembled violently and its surface was suddenly covered with black cracks!
This new star had originally been sealed off. The Imperial Army's artillery couldn't hurt it at all. Just like Abyss Schilling had said, the New Army could seal its entrance from inside the long bridge. But perhaps the activation point had not been fully activated yet. Its seal … had a loophole!
I instantly understood what was going on. Hilla and Xing Chen were inside the activation point. They had "stuck" it!
I immediately told everyone what I had just heard in my head. Then, I looked anxiously at the white light that was covered with cracks. However, the latter seemed to have withstood the attack. The cracks on its surface didn't continue to expand.
Hilla's voice sounded again. "Oh no … I think I was almost there …"
I finally understood when I had to make my move.
Seeing that I stood up, Sis was the first to rush forward. "This is too dangerous!"
"It's okay. Xing Chen and Hilla are fine, aren't they?" I had already transformed into my Void form. I raised my hand and pointed at the white new star not far away. "We have to blow that thing up. Conventional weapons are useless against it now. Only the power of void creatures can seep into it."
I was determined. The cracks on the surface of the white star seemed to be gradually healing. There was no room for hesitation in this situation. Sis and Shallow Shallow could only nod. However, just as I was about to set off, Sandora suddenly stepped forward. "Wait a minute. I will go with you."
"You?" I looked at Sandora in surprise. "How are you going to get close to that thing? You don't have Void power. "
"It's simple. You can use your Void Domain to bring me in. Aren't you very good at using your domain to 'deliver goods'?" Shadora looked at me with determination. Her blue eyes glowed with an unshakable light. "What if you put in all your power but still fell short? You just have to bring me in. Then, I will self-destruct and be reborn in my glorious form. The instant the Ulysses Imperial Power is activated, it will release sufficient power. You can use me as a bomb. Plus, my power is special. I won't die. "
Sandora didn't come up with this idea on a whim. She had already planned the entire process. She didn't leave any loopholes for me to refute. Hence, I could only nod. In the end, Shallow Shallow and Little Crow jumped out at once. This time, I couldn't nod no matter what.
"All of you, go back! Go back!" I waved my hand to dismiss the others. "Sandora has the ability to be reborn. All of you don't. Everyone, bring the fleet and leave. It's best if you stay as far away from this world as possible. I'm worried that the entire universe will be destroyed when the activation point explodes. All of you, retreat as far as you can … Wait, leave the Empire Admiral behind. "
Sis was about to order the entire fleet to retreat. Then, she was stunned. "Leave the Empire Admiral behind?"
I nodded. "Also, bring all the psionic crystals and heavy warheads from the other spaceships here."
Sandora's words reminded me. Hilla and Seiji's power wasn't enough. What if I included my power and it still wasn't enough? What if I included Sandora's power and it still wasn't enough?
Hence, we needed a bigger yield, a bigger explosion!
We couldn't hold back any of our power. We had to smash at that d * mned white planet with everything we had!
The Empire Admiral had the largest power reactor and the largest storage space on the battlefield. Its attack power might not be the highest, but its self-destruction power … was definitely the strongest.
With the help of the teleportation device, everything was quickly completed … Actually, it wasn't all done. The Empire Admiral still had a few garages that hadn't been filled. However, there wasn't enough time. The white planet was slowly repairing itself. We had to act immediately.
However, I believed that the current preparations were sufficient. All the personnel on the Empire Admiral had been evacuated. Even many factory buildings that could be disassembled and assembled had been teleported away. The remaining space was filled with the most powerful warheads and high-purity psionic crystals, as well as all kinds of one-off mathematical devices (these were the components of the X-4 warhead that hadn't been assembled in time). This would be the largest "bomb" the Empire had ever created, with the most destructive effects. Pandora was deeply regretful that she wouldn't be able to see it explode.
The allied forces quickly retreated. In the end, the once heated battlefield quieted down completely. All the troops had left.
In the vast space, there was only a dazzling white star and a cross-shaped starship facing it. This scene was just like the name of this world: The Core of Tranquility.
The Empire Admiral welcomed a moment of complete silence for the first time. This flagship that had been bustling and bustling since its construction was now silent. In the empty space fortress, only Sandora and I were there.
Most of the surrounding equipment had been shut down. Only the mainframe and its auxiliary core systems were still operating. After everyone had left, the buzzing of these equipment could be heard clearly.
Sandora had set the starship to self-destruct. I used my own power to slowly envelop the starship. All the holographic projections in the command hall now showed only one target — the white planet at the core of the battlefield.
The void domain enveloped the starship and then slowly accelerated.
"Is the mainframe ready?"
"Mainframe on standby. The self-destruction sequence will be executed after impact."
"You're going to self-destruct, old friend."
"This is a mission."
"… Protect your database. Sandora and I will do our best to ensure that you survive. When the time comes, we'll give you a new body."
"The mainframe is looking forward to it."
"Then …"
