The battle quickly entered its final phase. Before Eamon’s fleet could even reach the battlefield, the battle had already ended. The remaining 30 to 50 rebel warships were fleeing toward the Stargate, however, Aurelia’s fleet was holding them back. Based on the distance between the two sides, the rebel warships did not have the time to activate the Stargate. They would be completely destroyed!
“Damn it! What’s going on? Is that NPC commander a genius or an idiot?”
“And what kind of weapon was that just now? Isn’t that too terrifying? It could destroy a fleet with one shot!”
Eamon was puzzled on his flagship. He could not understand how all of this happened in less than an hour!
Space battles were never quick. In a battle between thousands of warships, it was impossible to determine the winner within a few months. It was normal to fight for a few years, but.., in just a few minutes, after a super weapon, the resistance fleet was crippled. Then, they turned off their shields and let the others fight as they pleased!
The strongest defense of a warship was definitely not some high-tech alloy armor. No matter what kind of metal it was made of or what proportion it was made of, its defense was limited. In the face of a warship cannon that was constantly increasing in power level.., even a powerful armor would not be able to withstand a single blow.
The strongest defense method of a warship was a shield. As long as this thing had sufficient energy, it would be able to withstand the enemy’s attack. Unless there were certain weapons, such as phase missiles, that could ignore the shield.., however, the power of such a physical weapon was far inferior to the energy cannon. Hence, the armor alone could defend against it for a long time.
However, once the warship deactivated its shield, it would be vulnerable to the destructive energy cannon. Hence, the resistance fleet was almost wiped out in such a short period of time!
The greatest power of the slaughter warhead did not lie in the damage caused by the explosion. Instead, it lay in the powerful electromagnetic interference that it released. This would cause the enemy’s warship to completely lose space-time in a relatively large airspace, the engines, shields, and weapon systems were all ineffective.
In addition, the phase beacons carried by the slaughterer warhead were also very lethal. Because the slaughterer cannon used by Aurelia this time was relatively close to the attacking area, the function of the phase beacons was not too obvious, if this was a cross-galaxy attack on a planet, then the power of the phase beacons would be displayed.
For example, Aurelia used the slaughtering cannon to aim at the capital planet of Vasari’s army — Mengsk! Then once the slaughtering warhead reached its target and detonated in the outer space of Mengsk, the consequences would be very terrible.
First, the Vasari’s warships near the slaughtering warhead would be destroyed. Secondly, the orbit defense facilities within the gravity well of Mengsk and the other warships of Vasari’s army would be rendered ineffective, then, Mengsk would become a stable phase beacon, allowing Aurelia’s fleet to directly warp across the empire’s borders. They would not need to enter the Vasari fleet through the Star Gate of the Dominic Galaxy, then, they would attack little by little.
Through the phase beacon of the slaughterer cannon, Aurelia’s fleet could easily complete the decapitation operation and directly attack the capital of the Vasari fleet. This was the true purpose of the slaughterer cannon!
If it was not for Jiang Fei, Aurelia, and the others wanting to buy as much time as possible and not wanting to end the game as soon as possible, they would have already had the ability to destroy Vasari’s army in one fell swoop and unify the entire universe.
However, if that was the case, the game would completely lose the possibility of continuing to play. Once the game was shut down and the server was shut down, the entire universe would be threatened. At that time, Jiang Fei and the others would be finished, therefore, for the sake of their own lives, although Jiang Fei and the rest had long had the ability to destroy the Vasari army, they had not made any moves.
It was only until today that Aurelia could not help but show off his skills. He used the slaughtering cannon to take down the resistance army’s huge fleet of “Players”.
After the Resistance Army’s attack was thwarted and the entire army was wiped out, even if they were “Players”, even if the development team tried their best to subsidize them, after all, these guys’battleships were not given away for free. They were bought with real money, however, they had to spend money to buy things. Not everyone was rich. Hence, after the warships were destroyed, many of the 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 Imperial Army the chance to earn money and experience. Hence, even if the development team wanted to subsidize them.., the resistance wouldn’t be able to form a counterattack squadron for a while.
As for Emon’s side, they were similarly powerless to attack. This was because the Vassali Legion had built up a large number of defense facilities. If they wanted to grind through them bit by bit, they would need a lot more time.
“Commander, we should take advantage of our victory and chase after them. We should charge into the Vassali Legion’s territory and attack their capital Star!”Emon pleaded with Aurelia.
“Our Universe Empire is a country that loves peace. Even though we will give a firm blow to the enemy forces that invade our territory, we will never invade other people’s Territory!”Aurelia’s reply was righteous, however, anyone who heard it would roll their eyes.
If this was said by a politician, it would be fine. Aurelia was the fleet commander who had invaded the Vasari Army’s territory several times. When she was rampaging within the Vasari Army’s territory.., why couldn’t she remember this righteous speech?
“Commander, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”Aemon said, unwilling to give up.
“If you’re willing to fight, then fight. The Empire’s military expenditure is limited. Such a large-scale fleet assembly is a heavy burden for the empire, so I’ve decided to withdraw my troops!”Aurelia said.
“What? !”Aemon was completely dumbfounded, up until now, he had no idea what Aurelia was doing. If one were to say that this fellow was an idiot, no one would be able to stop her when she was fierce. Thousands of warships were instantly reduced to ashes in front of her, but if one were to say that she was a genius commander.., she actually turned a blind eye to such a rare opportunity, which made Eamon very puzzled.
“Alright, there’s no need to say anymore. I wish you good luck!”After Aurelia finished speaking, she cut off the communication, and then ordered the fleet to prepare to return.
“Sigh!”Eamon was so anxious that he slapped his thigh, but there was nothing he could do.
A few days later, Aurelia’s huge fleet retreated out of the Dominic system in batches and returned to their own garrison areas. Aurelia also brought her core fleet back to Skoda Star. Before returning.., aurelia did not forget to personally supervise the dismantling of the slaughtering cannon.
