"Ha," I was stunned for a few seconds at Fang Tong's sudden question. Then, I unexpectedly chuckled. "What's going on? Did the Great Demon Fang Tong develop a sense of justice or what? "
"I just want to know if you're thinking of something that you shouldn't be thinking of."
This time, I was really stunned. This incorrigible lolicon!
Alright, indeed, if one day you suddenly found out that the man who adopted his beloved loli as a kind-hearted long-legged uncle was actually a villain who was planning to conquer the world and destroy mankind, you would also feel uneasy and suspicious. Also, did you manage to finish the sentence just now?
"Yes, I'm launching an invasion, but you don't have to worry about that." I shrugged nonchalantly. Although I was an incorrigible lolicon, at least his worry for little Osaka was real. "I never had any ill intentions towards that little guy. Besides, with our strength, do you think there's a need for me to plot against you? Aren't you overestimating yourself? "
"That's true," Fang Tong admitted casually. His expression was still as nasty as ever. "Anyway, I was just asking casually. I didn't expect you to really answer, 'Your Majesty'. Speaking of which, who are you actually fighting against? Seeing those Empire soldiers bustling around the Shadow City all day long, to be honest, I'm really curious about the war between you 'monsters'. "
I knew that he had this bad habit of speaking, so I didn't mind the rudeness in his words. Just as I was about to reply, I heard the sound of the door sliding open.
A low and slightly hoarse voice rang in the room, attracting everyone's attention. "Your Majesty of the Schilling people, I heard that some guests have come to this warship …"
"Wah!!"
The one closest to the door was Chu Chun Jiuli, who was studying the crystal patterns on the door. When the young girl with a garland on her head heard the gloomy voice, she couldn't help but look up. She immediately let out a cry of surprise. Then, she almost bounced up and wanted to jump … Yes, fall backwards.
"Ex … Aliens!!"
The flowerpot girl fell to the ground in a sorry state. She pointed her trembling finger at Zeratul who was curiously looking down at her. Zeratul saw the exaggerated reaction of the timid girl in front of him and blinked innocently. He shrugged at me.
"It seems that I frightened your friend," Zeratul said in a muffled voice. "But would the mighty Schilling be frightened by the appearance of Proteus?"
I awkwardly pulled Chu Chun up and explained, "This is my little sister from the countryside …"
I felt that my explanation was terrible!
Zeratul's appearance didn't just scare Chu Chun, it also shocked the other girls. But after the initial fear calmed down, our Uncle Z quickly enjoyed the inhumane onlookers of a fourteen year old girl from Earth. His blue face almost turned purple.
Looking at how a calm person like Zeratul would reveal such an awkward expression, I couldn't help but step forward to help him out. Then, I introduced everyone one by one. As for their identities …
Yes, all of them were sisters from the countryside.
At the end of the introduction, even Fang Tong couldn't help but roll his eyes at me. You have to say, innocent and kind children like us are really not suitable to lie!
"Hey, Brother Director," Mikoto suddenly poked me from behind when Osaka wasn't paying attention. She asked softly while Zeratul wasn't paying attention, "Is this alien your friend? Is he poor? Why is there a big hole in his cloak? "
"Dark Templars never care about appearance. Hard training is the best comfort for our lonely souls," Zeratul's ears were sharp.
Zeratul's ears were sharp. As soon as Mikoto finished speaking, he spoke in an indifferent tone. Obviously, the onlookers just now had made this Dark Templar, who had always been tolerant, slightly unhappy.
Just as we were chatting, Bubble suddenly made a direct broadcast using the flagship's mainframe. "Child's father! The 37th starship responsible for destroying Planet Noral is almost in position. They seem to have encountered a large-scale attack by the Proteus. Do you want to come and take a look? "
"A large-scale attack?" Sandora and I exchanged glances. "Is it enough to intercept that starship?"
With such doubts in my mind, I came to the bridge with a group of noisy and unscrupulous tourists. The holographic projection system had already switched to the image of the 37th starship. The planet Noral, which was the size of a glass ball, had just appeared in front of the starship. The pale yellow planet was like Jingle VS Megatron when compared to the size of the starship. There was still a huge distance between them.
As the command center of the entire flagship, the scene on the bridge of the Imperial Admiral was much more astonishing. Standing on the commander's platform that was almost a hundred meters in the air, I could see countless officers busily issuing orders in the enormous command center that had a radius of two hundred meters. Specks of starlight floated above the gigantic star map, and the gigantic holographic projection system in front of me displayed the magnificent planet's battleship and the gigantic fleet around it. Such a scene naturally caused the tourist groups that came to the self-study garden city to gasp in astonishment. At this moment, I suddenly felt that compared to us who had to save the world just to be bystanders, Tear and the others were the most powerful tourist group in history …
"That … Brother Chen Jun," Tear was stunned by the scene around her. She then pulled the corner of my shirt from the back door timidly. "Where is the enemy? Are the fleets on the ship your army? "
It seemed that after the initial novelty, Tear had slightly realized that the so-called 'war' was not a game.
"That starship fleet is just one of the hundreds of units of the Empire's vanguard." My words immediately made everyone's jaws drop. Even Brother Fang Tong, who was pretending to be calm, almost stumbled and fell. "As for our enemy, it is that planet. We plan to destroy it entirely."
After I finished my second sentence, the few girls who had grown up in a peaceful environment became completely silent.
After a long while, Osaka and Mikoto looked at me helplessly and asked, "Brother Director, did you just say … you want to destroy that planet?"
"Do you think interstellar war is a game?" I didn't answer, but Vega, who was next to me, replied stiffly. To an officer of the Imperial Army who prioritized the mission of a soldier above everything else, the girls' attitude in the frontline of the war was simply unreasonable.
On this point, Sis Scorpion had completely ignored the serious nature of her immediate superiors.
I comforted Osaka and Mikoto, who had fallen into a momentary daze. Then, I quickly retracted my hand before the jealous Kuroko pounced on me. "That's why I said, this is not a place for you to play. We are in a war, a war that could lead to the extinction of a certain race. It's better for you to stay away from them."
"They are Brother's enemy!" Tear suddenly clenched her fists, her expression solemn. "That's why they should definitely be destroyed!"
I was speechless.
If that old b * stard Aresta doesn't bring up quality education in the development policy of the school city, I will kill him!
Even though that old fox is already dead.
"Where is their counterattack force?"
Sandora asked in a deep voice. Then, a certain part of the huge holographic image was pulled in. Several golden battleships filled with the style of Proteus appeared in front of us.
The huge body of the battleship was slightly triangular. In the core area, a huge crystal structure and a forest of buildings and machinery could be vaguely seen. A light blue semi-transparent hemispherical shield covered the central part of the battleship. It was like an ecological sphere embedded in a huge triangular alloy plate. According to our calculations, the side length of this huge battleship was actually more than two hundred kilometers …
The Holy Mothership — I finally saw the strongest battleship of the Proteus. It seemed that they had really been beaten up by us for the past few days.
"Tadalim has desecrated these holy relics!" The moment he saw the few huge battleships, Zeratul said in a deep and angry tone. It was obvious that the Holy Mothership, which was regarded as the monument of the race by the Proteus, wasn't something that just anyone had the right to use, especially a bunch of cultists who were addicted to psychotropic drugs. From Zeratul's point of view, it was unforgivable that they dared to touch the Holy Mothership and use it in such a blind war.
The other person's reaction was even more intense than Zeratul's …
Little Bubble, who had been hanging on my neck and hypnotized herself into a koala, went into a state of excitement the moment she saw the shiny fleet. She immediately waved her little arms and legs as she marched towards the holographic projection. She uttered a string of monosyllabic words with unknown meaning. Yup, the meaning was still unknown.
Sandora had the magical ability to communicate with languages. She immediately translated for me, "The little one said that she wanted those shiny plates …"
Zeratul's expression twisted subtly. Now, there was good news and bad news. The good news was that the holy relics of his race seemed to be able to survive the war. The bad news was that they would probably become the playground of a certain little loli for a very long time.
"Order the starship fleet to control their firepower and capture the enemy's mothership as much as possible."
After receiving my instructions, the starship fleet, which had already deployed its guard fleet in preparation to kill the enemy's starship with full firepower, immediately contracted its formation and activated the fleet's joint shield, preparing to capture the enemy's mothership with the help of the energy plundering device.
"Tell them to be careful of the distance. There may be a large group of enemies hidden under the Holy Mothership's force field. Our anti-stealth device should be able to detect them, right?"
"Of course, Your Majesty." Sives nodded at me. "But it will take a few minutes to crack this unfamiliar stealth mechanism. The ultimate technological product of the Proteus is not powerless against us."
It turned out that our caution was effective. The Proteus' Holy Mothership's stealth force field was much larger than we thought. When the vanguard of the starship fleet was still 400,000 kilometers away from the enemy, a series of explosions suddenly erupted on their psionic shield.
Based on the range of the Proteus' main spaceships, the Holy Mothership's stealth force field was probably 100,000 kilometers wide! How much do you think it will cost in a month?
However, the other party only managed to launch a successful sneak attack. The Xi Ling mainframe carried in the core of the starship cracked the principle of the other party's invisibility in less than three minutes. A huge energy field gushed out and swept across a radius of a million kilometers around the starship. Under the effect of strong interference, the hidden Proteus fleet immediately appeared, densely packed and overwhelming …
"Wow, it's this number again …"
It was not the first time. It was not the first time I was amazed by the size of the Proteus army. You would also be amazed when a guy who should have pursued an elite army suddenly used a human wave tactic to fight you head-on!
"We do have a small population, but the use of drone technology can make up for this." Zeratul's tone was a little confused. "But I'm curious about one thing. The Holy Mothership itself also has stealth capabilities. Although it will slightly reduce the range of their stealth force field, protecting the mothership should be the best choice compared to becoming a target for all."
"They can become invisible themselves?" I was shocked by this unexpected news, then I immediately ordered, "Inform the starship fleet to not stop interfering with the force field. The Tadalim army may be playing tricks!"
At the same time, on the battlefield half a light year away from our flagship, the confrontation between the two sides had reached its climax.
The Empire's starship fleet had formed a dense joint formation. This was an "idiotic tactic" that should be avoided as much as possible in a space war where both sides had super long-range artillery bombardment capabilities. However, when the Schilling's spaceships approached, they formed a joint shield that was comparable to a mother planet, which completely changed the value of this tactic. Tadalim's large fleet of warships was divided into several waves, with the fast and large number of 'Phoenix' aircrafts as the suicide squad. They would first attack to attract our Energy Plunder. Then, before they were reduced to wreckage, the enemy's Curved Light Warships at the rear would seize the less than ten seconds to launch a saturated attack. This was because an Energy Plunder could only support a limited amount of energy channels at one time. With a large number of suicide squads, this tactic was very effective. This was the only feasible tactic that the Proteans had come up with after suffering heavy losses due to the Energy Plunder in the past few confrontations. On the other hand, the doomed Phoenix aircrafts showed us the madness of the Tadalim. Before their energy was drained, they would give up on attacking and defending, and use their remaining energy to crash into our shield. Even if their energy was drained in the process of flying, with the help of their huge kinetic energy, these iron lumps could still pose a slight threat to the Schilling's fleet. And this slight threat would be rather effective when their numbers were in the tens of thousands.
The intense explosions began to illuminate the cold and dark background of space. The starship fleet with astonishing destructive power and the Tadalim fleet, which won with their numbers and lives, were temporarily in a stalemate. Due to our difficult order to "capture the enemy's mothership," the starship fleet's commander had adopted a rather conservative strategy, aiming to continuously whittle down the enemy's numbers and finally break through the enemy's layers of defense to approach the several enormous Holy Motherships. This caused most of their main cannons to be in a restricted state, and Tadalim had suffered greatly from the Energy Plunder several times. Naturally, they did not dare to rashly open fire with their precious main battleships. They continuously used drones and suicide formations to whittle down our shields in an attempt to get the Energy Plunder to cool down as soon as possible.
How boring. I wanted to see what the Holy Motherships' attacks were like. In the settings, just one of these things was enough to burn the entire planet into glass. In terms of destructive power, it was almost equivalent to our Eternal-class motherships (of course, its defensive capabilities and endurance were incomparable, and Eternal-class motherships were mass-produced). However, Tadalim was obviously unwilling to use their precious motherships to test the upper limit of the Imperial Army's Energy Plunder …
To be honest, I felt that the current situation of the Holy Motherships was really awkward. They were supposed to be the most powerful battleships, but due to the power of the Energy Plunder, they could not use their main cannons to attack. They did not even dare to approach the frontlines. I knew that they had an even more powerful space weapon, the Black Hole Generator. However, speaking of space technology, the Schilling people were the ancestors in this field. After the starships sealed off all the nearby space, not to mention creating a spatial collapse, it was impossible for Tadalim to even use teleportation to escape.
So, they were really like a pile of shiny plates, becoming decorations at the back of the battlefield.
Hundreds of thousands of Proteus fleet angrily attacked the starship fleet's joint shield, forming a huge light barrier like a curtain wall near the line of fire between the two sides. The mothership of the Schilling people, that huge planet, had maintained a silent state from the beginning. Other than the occasional red stream of light gliding across the cracked crust, all its mechanical structures were silent. On one side, there was a large number of 'small spaceships', and on the other side, there was a strange starship that was faintly glowing in red light, its crust cracking and revealing its core. The huge contrast between the two made the entire battlefield look like a group of angry ice peaks besieging an apple. What's with this strange metaphor?
"We'd better send some reinforcements over." Seeing that there was still a continuous stream of spaceships entering the battlefield from behind Tadalim, Madam Sis frowned slightly. "Tadalim seems to be treating this confrontation as a decisive battle. Their numbers are so large that it is suspicious. Although 'Zero' is powerful, its weapons are too simple. If it falls into a human wave attack, it will be quite dangerous for the planet's battleships."
Yes, indeed, now I also feel that the number of Proteus people is a little too strange. It has far exceeded the defensive fleets they had deployed outside the colonial planets previously, and they even used the Holy Mothership, a racial monument, to fight a war of attrition. It would be a lie to say that there is no doubt at all.
"Mobilize some elite fleets from the main force."
Sandora thought for a while and made the most efficient decision. Those starship fleets were too slow, and by the time they arrived at the battlefield, both sides would probably be dead.
The elite mothership near the 'Admiral of the Empire' received the order and cut through space in a dazzling light screen, rushing to the battlefield.
