Over Australia, a large number of Covenant warships floated above, and countless Covenant Enchantresses transported a steady stream of elite Covenant warriors to the Precursor ruins below.

These Covenant warriors broke into the Precursor ruins that had been dormant for 100,000 years in an extremely rude manner, and then forcibly activated the underground base.

This place, hidden beneath the Australian continent, is known as the Altar in the language of the Precursors. It is a place dedicated to storing the coordinates of a hyperspace channel. Without activating this base, no one would be able to find their way to the mysterious hyperspace location where the flame originated.

But now, in front of the Prophet family, who have studied the Precursor civilization for tens of thousands of years, all this is no longer a secret. Through extensive research on the Precursor relics, the Prophet is well aware of this sacred relic buried deep beneath Australia. Under the guidance of the Prophet, the Covenant warriors quickly succeeded in activating the base.

When this base is activated, the superspace fault that envelops the solar system disappears at the same time.

This sudden change was unexpected by humans, and in a hidden base on the surface of the moon, a large number of researchers rushed into a ruin like crazy, which is the place where humans discovered the superspace fault space controller left behind by the Forerunners. These researchers have been stationed here for almost all the year, carefully studying the device, which is the last barrier to protect the planet. But today, this only barrier is suddenly gone. No one knows what happened. The researchers were left to storm the ruins in an attempt to find out what was going on and stop the mutation from happening. It's a pity that the relic console, which had been sleeping all along, is now suddenly in a remote control state, and it has no response to external commands at all. It is completely unuser-friendly, and it seems that the activation of the Precursor relic on the ground will directly override the authority of this control base on the moon.

In the face of this unexpected situation, if this wave of Star Alliance fleets can be repelled, humanity may still have time to study how to reactivate the hyperspace fault, and at the same time understand what is the connection between this lunar base and the Australian base. But now, humanity has run out of time.

At the moment when the hyperspace disappeared in a short distance, a behemoth with a body size of more than 400 kilometers ruthlessly tore through space and appeared above the earth.

It is an artificial celestial body that resembles a giant mushroom. The huge semicircular top covers the entire top of the celestial body like a huge celestial dome. There is a clear demarcation zone at the top and middle of this semicircle, but the edge of this zone is not straight, but undulating, giving the impression of tearing, as if the huge man-made structure was created along the edge of some natural object.

In the lower part, a slender central axis stretches out.

At first glance, this slender central axis seems to be very thin, but in fact, it is a super-large columnar building with a diameter of tens of kilometers and a length of more than two hundred kilometers. Countless staggered tracks stretched out from this central axis, leaving behind a series of jagged black shadows, as if a chain of many sharp angles encircled the square. From a distance, it's spectacular!

"City of Fraternity!, Capital of the Covenant!"

When they saw this huge man-made celestial body, everyone was stunned.

No one would have imagined that the Covenant would be so crazy and drive this capital of the Covenant, which is also an asteroid-level fortress, to the forefront. This is obviously a battle to complete the battle, preparing to completely wipe out the human race this time.

"Attack, all the fleet's firepower is concentrated on the artificial celestial body in front, and the other side is destroyed first!" Almost the moment he saw the appearance of the city of fraternity, General Hood began to become restless. Although there was no evidence, as long as he speculated a little, he guessed what the other party wanted to do. Therefore, he must give priority to defeating the opponent when the opponent has just arrived and has not yet gained a foothold.

With the order of General Hood, nearly a thousand warships of the UNSC simultaneously launched long-range strikes, in particular, the super MAC artillery defense space station in the rear.

The power of that huge MAC cannon was amazing, and even the positive electron cannon on board the Infinity could not compare to this terrifying weapon in terms of pure lethality.

After all, accelerating a 3,000-ton superalloy projectile to the speed of light at four percent is too shocking. If it weren't for the long charging time of the MAC artillery and the long flight time, humans could have used the MAC artillery to perform ultra-long-range sniping on the Covenant fleet.

But now it's an asteroid, not a battleship that can turn the bow of the ship at once.

With such a large target, even if the MAC artillery needs to fly for a minute, it is enough to hit the opponent.

Nearly a thousand scorching white beams swept across the sky, converging into a dazzling torrent that hit the City of Fraternity five lightseconds away.

A terrifying torrent of energy sparked a dazzling spark on the surface of the City of Fraternity. And a few minutes later, the three fire meteors tore through the void with a devastating momentum, and violently penetrated several Star Alliance warships in front of the City of Fraternity that wanted to block them, and slammed into them.

A series of blows caused jagged red lightning to appear on the surface of the City of Fraternity, and the rumbling thunder reverberated through the air.

The violent energy interference even caused the surrounding electromagnetic wave field to be strongly distorted, and even the propagation of light was violently disturbed.

"Ultra-high-intensity electromagnetic radiation has been detected, and it is coming to the ship, and it is expected that the observation system will be affected, and the recovery time will be thirty seconds!"

It was obviously an urgent situation, but the shipboard AI Ai of the Endless had no emotion at all, but replied mechanically.

Unlike Cortana, Al Ain is a UNSC production version of AI, not created by Cortana's thinking mode of directly cloning the mother.

And Cortana has also been upgraded once in infinite space, so it has become more user-friendly. And Ain was noticeably more dull.

But now, no one cares about Ain's performance, because everyone is nervously watching the effect of this salvo.

Just when everyone was nervously looking forward to it, Yun Qi, who was standing next to General Hood, suddenly felt a huge sense of danger. He used his power to try to peek into the full picture of the other party through this violent electromagnetic interference. But soon he felt a torrent of energy like a raging tide coming towards him.

"Not good, General Hood, hurry up and order the fleet to disperse!"

Hearing Yun Qi's words, General Hood also seemed to feel something, only to see him slam the all-channel communication button on the command platform of the whole department and shout desperately: "Disperse, everyone disperse!"

Hearing the flagship's order, the captains of the other UNSC battleships were still confused and didn't know what was going on, but soon everyone was as anxious as burning their butts.

Because the shipboard AI suddenly began to go crazy, the general high-frequency alarm said: "Warning, warning, there is an unknown pattern of energy flow in front of the ship to propagate in the direction of the ship, and a radiation value that exceeds the range of the human body is detected 100 million times! The estimated contact time is counted down to 3 seconds, 3, 2, 1!"

"Turn, turn quickly, you damn AI, don't broadcast it, hurry up and control the hull to turn immediately!"

The violent light had pierced the dazzling explosion just now, and now a fool knew that it was the other party who had counterattacked.

Unfortunately, compared to the slow turn of the battleship, the energy pulses that were almost transmitted by the beam swept through the entire UNSC fleet at a terrifying speed, and the terrifying red light began to scatter as soon as it hit the UNSC fleet cluster. Every time it touches a battleship, the red light doubles, and it seems that each battleship is a reflective mirror, and the terrifying red light reflects wildly throughout the UNSC cluster, constantly superimposing and reinforcing.

The entire UNSC fleet was like a chain reaction, and all the warships were like gunpowder ignited by the fuse, and they all ignited in an instant.

When this crazy fission red light reached its peak, a dazzling red light suddenly erupted, and the intensity of the light in that moment was like a supernova explosion, lighting up the entire solar system.

The horror was so great that the light spread in all directions. Even the surface armor of the Covenant warships that were closer gradually softened and melted under the terrifying light radiation.

Fortunately, this light radiation came and went quickly, and it only lasted for less than ten seconds. Otherwise, these thickly armored Covenant ships will be evaporated by the blazing bright light.

By the time this terrifying attack had disappeared, there was nothing left of the location of the Central Plains UNSC fleet in space.

A large number of mutilated hull wreckage were scattered everywhere, and the battlefield was in shambles.

"Thanks to the great ancestors, the mighty dreadnoughts helped us clear all the obstacles. Humanity, the time has come for you to perish!"

The two prophets watched with satisfaction the effect of the city's cannon fire.

This attack can be described as devastating, and almost the entire UNSC fleet was annihilated with a single blow. And all this is the result of renovating the main guns of dreadnoughts left over from the forerunners. The results even exceeded the prophets' expectations. With just one blow, ninety percent of the human warships were wiped out. The remaining warships were also in ruins. Humanity has lost its last barrier. Now is the time to open the way to the birthplace of the flame!
