"They're going to run!"
The Queen Isabella shouted nervously, but Catalina and Leos in front had exhausted their offensive power at this time. The Star Thief's rapidly expanding formation directly included them, and the surrounding battleships were like The torrent of steel rushed past them in all directions. They must make a brief correction, adjust the attack angle, and adjust the energy frequency before they can attack again.
The black domain arrived as expected and enveloped the battlefield. Everything stopped, as if the magic of time was suddenly cast upon it? Taking advantage of this time, the Queen Isabella advanced and cut into the interior of the fleet along the split space. Then, under the protection of the hypnotic field, it directly carried out a bit jump in combat mode. In one breath? From the battlefield The center jumped behind it, and the already prepared space team jumped out of the spacecraft and began to build an energy front millions of kilometers behind the battlefield.
The Star Thief's battlefield expanded more than twice as much as expected, which made Eggman feel a little strenuous. He took a breath and retracted his energy from the edge of the battlefield. Once the tide of the Black Territory ebbs, the static universe suddenly becomes alive. The Star Thieves' warships are like crazy worms, rolling outwards in a group, and the front line is further scattered, spreading crazily outside the boundary. Fortunately, Catalina and Leos' adjustments had been completed at this time, and they once again used attacks to suppress the fleeing fleet. The emergency jump of the Star Thief's flagship was interrupted, and the light went out instantly. But then, a dark red light rose from all around it again. Of course, it no longer looked like a scene that would occur during a space jump, but it should be some kind of large weapon charging preparation. The Star Thief should have given up on escaping and prepared to fight to the death.
This is very good, it is exactly the development that Gu Hanhan and the others are looking forward to seeing. Danzai's black domain extended again, and the red cloud covering the surface of the Star Thief's flagship was like ice, frozen.
After that, Eggman's hypnotic field and Katarina and Leos' joint attacks evolved in a specific rhythm. The universe on the battlefield was like a grand epic with a lag, and each frame moved slowly.
But even so, on the battlefield jointly locked by the energy field, there were no large-scale collisions or meaningless firefights as the Star Thief fleet collapsed - of course, sporadic collisions and firefights still existed. , this is inevitable in the fleet collapse. In order to leave more prisoners for Gu Hanhan, Catalina is even prepared to take action immediately once such collisions and gunfire spread and trigger a chain reaction. ?Preparation for intervention. But it didn't actually happen. The ships ran very fast. As long as they could move, they were running away as hard as they could. However, a large-scale chain reaction never appeared, and all the fleets were defeated. Any accidents that may occur are limited to the partial exposure of a small number of ships.
Such quality made Gu Hanhan almost drool - in terms of combat quality alone, the Star Thieves' fleet could be said to be the best that Gu Hanhan had ever seen. It was ten thousand times more powerful than the fleet of fish from the Feilun Company on the outskirts of the Feishi Galaxy, and more than ten times more powerful than the fleets of the various countries in the Lakamon star field. Gu Hanhan had never seen the elite fleet of a truly great empire. , not easy to compare. But from what she saw, it was at least not much different from the family fleet of the Acropolis nobles, minus the level of superpowers. It's no wonder that the Red Flag Allied Forces before Qingya Xingyuan collapsed at the first touch, and were beaten to the point where they were unable to fight back - they were not opponents on the same level at all.
"Fortunately our whole army is here!"
Gu Hanhan admired his wisdom and foresight in his heart. At the same time, he coveted this fleet and vowed to get it. At the beginning, it was just to annihilate them all to establish their power, and to capture them if they could. Now the whole army must be involved, not only to fight until others surrender, but also to further gain their loyalty.
Loyalty is of course difficult. In a sense, it is almost the most difficult thing to obtain in the world. Now, in the current battlefield, they must be locked in, and energy control must continue without stopping.
Gu Hanhan was also very desperate. Her energy waves were directly integrated with Danzi's fluctuations, like the cooling water of a high-speed drill, keeping his anti-gene from rising. At the same time, she also freed up a hand, wiping Danzi's sweat while encouraging him: "Just keep holding on, hold on just a little longer, we must win this fleet, and now it all depends on you. ”
At this time, Catalina outside was almost scolding her. As we all know, on the battlefield of superpowers, destruction is easier than crushing, and crushing is easier than controlling. To destroy a fleet of tens of thousands, it only takes one large-scale energy field explosion, which can take anywhere from tens of seconds to a few minutes, and everything in the field will return to zero. And control is a continuous output, especially when control is needed to defeat others, and one's own output lacks strong backup support. That is difficult, both for harvesting people's hearts and for energy output. Five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes... time continues, but it is difficult to maintain the energy field forever. It will always decline and have ups and downs, and it cannot remain unchanged. Once there are fluctuations, it may be a gap, a loophole, and a breaking point in control. Then the point extends to the line, the line extends to the surface, and finally the entire control collapses. Strictly speaking, it is actually very difficult to achieve absolute control of the battlefield with just a few high-level ability users. They are simply doing this with sheer bravery. It is just relying on the fact that there is no place like the exile. What kind of power? Just a person with super powers. In the inner domain, it usually requires a complete energy fleet to cooperate. And even if there is a way to maintain high-intensity stable control, even if a superpower who outputs field energy can still withstand it, it will be difficult to withstand this space that is shrouded in energy and continuously beaten by the wave lock. live. The space must be broken, the material layer must be distorted, and then there will be a sudden energy storm. It will come sooner or later, it just depends on the length of time.
In fact, before the energy storm came, Catalina was almost unable to bear it. Her anti-genes were rising, her field circulation was stalling, she began to feel chills, and her nerves felt like they were being pulled by a hacksaw. Sharp and painful. Unlike Danzi on the spaceship, they have Gu Hanhan's personal protection. More importantly, there is a level difference. It is very difficult for the two of them to catch Danzi's energy wave and maintain a stable state of alternating evolution.
"How long? Commander, how long does it take for the fleet to be in place? When can the attack start?!" She was so anxious in the communication system that she forced the flagship to say, "I will give you five more minutes at most, and then just You can attack now. Whether you can withstand the defeat will all depend on you!"
The commander was actually shocked. Faced with such a magical war scene, he basically couldn't believe that these non-human beings on the Queen Isabella who claimed to be able to lock the battlefield could actually do this. That's beyond incredible and has redefined war. But commander, in this line of work you can't be excited, you have to be calm and cool as the universe collapses in front of you without changing your attitude. After receiving the clamor from the communication system, he calmly glanced at the tactical astrolabe in his hand and confirmed that the fleet still had three minutes to complete the final encirclement. Then Baotou, who was well versed in human nature and the art of battlefield command, decisively added five minutes to this.
"Eight minutes!" He ordered resolutely and resolutely, with a tone that could not be refused. "You can attack in eight minutes at the latest - the fleet will try to advance as much as possible, but you need to wait for my order."
Katarina cursed someone in the mecha, but she did not refuse. It was equivalent to accepting the commander's tactical command to attack within eight minutes in the form of curses.
The rapid changes in the battlefield often do not take eight minutes. In fact, the mutation has already occurred before Catalina's scolding has subsided.
At the beginning, the No. 0 detection terminal from the bridge of the Queen Isa, which had been dormant on the battlefield in the penal colony, was suddenly activated. First, meaningless lines were coupled into a fluctuating curve, and then The curve is unfolded and becomes a three-dimensional wave circulation curve.
"Energy!" the operator in charge of the monitor screamed and quickly reported, "An unknown energy wave feedback was detected on the battlefield. The fluctuations cover a wide range and the intensity rises very quickly!"
"It's finally here..." Gu Hanhan felt a sense of stability in his heart that his boots had finally landed, which meant that the superpower opponent they had always suspected and been wary of had finally appeared.
She patted Danzi's shoulder and was about to take a closer look when the acting captain's navigation chief already asked: "Confirm the energy level, range direction, and center strength coordinates."
"The center coordinate is a120η42.5θ147, the location of the enemy's flagship. The field average is 6.8 degrees. The intensity is level one, but it is still rising. The final intensity is unknown," the operator hurriedly replied while checking the calculation. "The maximum diameter of the energy fluctuation ——An astronomical unit of 23.68, near a sphere, the fluctuation covers the entire battlefield!”
The entire battlefield?
Gu Hanhan turned his head in horror. Putting aside the issue of increasing strength, how did the Star Thief spread the energy field all over the battlefield? A nearly sphere with a diameter of more than ten astronomical units, which is already beyond the range that a single high-level ability user can attack. Could it be said that they are not just warriors with a few superpowers, but they themselves have mastered the technology of energy warfare. This is a complete energy fleet?
Then why did they behave so poorly at the beginning?
Lure a snake out of its hole? Lure the enemy deeper? We who wanted to surround and capture them were actually deceived by them?
——Who sent them here?
For a moment, Gu Hanhan thought a lot. She looked at the projection screen. At some point, the formation of the Star Thieves fleet had expanded from the original cone to a spherical shape. Dots of warships were stalling and falling in the sparse space in the middle. However, more spaceships were clinging to them. The borders of the fronts gathered together. These clusters of warships gathered into a group are obviously evenly distributed on the surrounding surface of the battlefield space in a relatively fixed manner. Ripples of energy are transmitted from these fleets, with a certain rhythm and the overall flagship at the center of the sphere. Linked together, a strange cycle is established. The entire battlefield seemed to be transformed into a superpower with independent vitality in an instant. The general flagship was the center of his entire energy explosion, and the various fleets that radiated energy constituted every part of his torso, limbs and body.
