At the same time as the lighthouse star sounded the alarm, at the edge of the alert sector, the more than three million warships of the Ark of the Fallen formed a long dragon-like formation, and were constantly penetrating into the hinterland of the defensive line.

In the main ship, the alien god and his right-hand man Harkison looked at the star map, and the distance between the lighthouse star, which was marked as a red target, was gradually shrinking.

"Boss, we've entered the lighthouse alert range, and the radar shows that the Imperial fleet patrolling nearby is heading towards us, and there will be a battle soon."

As he spoke, Harkison scratched the back of his neck with his long tongue.

"Try to speed up and don't be pinned down."

The alien god's tone was light, this time it was not the doppelganger, but the deity was present.

Harkison flicked his tongue and sighed, "Even if we cooperate, the Ethereal Spirit Sect is still wary of us, not only did not reveal their specific plan of action, but also changed the location of their secret star gate, obviously wary of us, and I don't know when they will attack and from what direction they will attack." ”

The alien god didn't care, the cooperation between the two sides was to seek skin with the tiger, and it was normal to be wary of each other, just like he wouldn't tell the Ethereal Spirit Sect where his secret star gate was built.

With the beacon star as the center, the warning sector as a buffer zone is very large, once the enemy is spotted, there is enough time to mobilize troops, and they will not be able to reach the beacon star for a while. Therefore, although the Ethereal Spirit Sect operates secretly, the alien gods can also guess their thoughts.

It's nothing more than letting yourself play the vanguard, with the size of your own fleet, it's not enough for the empire to abandon the lighthouse star outpost, and wait until you break through all the way to the lighthouse star and entangle the three super A-level of the black star so that they can't escape easily, and then the Ethereal Spirit Sect will attack, and the reason for doing so is to prevent scaring the enemy away.

The alien god felt that he had guessed the intentions of the Ethereal Spirit Sect very well, and the only thing that was in suspense was how many high-level combat forces the Ethereal Spirit Sect had sent this time.

There are three super A-level on the imperial side, and Milizaus's combat power can barely be compared to his own, so the Ethereal Spirit Sect only needs to deal with Black Star and Beoni.

And there is still a big gap between the combat power of these two people and the top super A level, for the sake of safety, the Void Spirit Sect can crush the other party by sending more than four super A grades.

"I don't know who the Ethereal Spirit Sect sent out this time......

The alien god squinted, if the person who came was too strong, he had to be careful, don't be black.

At this time, the fleet, which had come to meet the Empire, finally arrived and appeared on the radar.

Harkison looked at the face of the alien god, and when he saw that the boss did not mean to speak, he gave the order for the alien god.

"All hands are free to fire! Defeat all enemy ships that stand in your way! ”

……

The Lighthouse Star had entered the highest state of alert, and the three Super A-class followed Tarrokov to the remote combat command room.

A large number of officers and personnel gathered in the room, and countless messages were transmitted from the battlefield and handed over to them for processing. Tarrokov stood in front of the huge three-dimensional projection of the battlefield with his hands in his hands, his eyes intent, and his face serious.

The projection of the battlefield is the scene of the battle between the Ark of the Fallen fleet and the Outer Guard Fleet of the Empire, and the ships of the enemy and us have been reduced countless times, completely restoring the scene of the battlefield, as if two mini-fleets are fighting in front of everyone's eyes. Around the battlefield projection is a miniature star map of the miniature alert sector, highlighted by the lighthouse star, the shrunken planet projection glows and extends a red line to connect with the enemy fleet - representing the current distance between the two sides.

"There are about 3.2 million enemy ships, this is a huge fleet, it can send this fleet into the shining world, this force is very powerful, you can't tell their origin from the model of the ship."

Said a staff adjutant.

"The biggest possibility is the Ethereal Sect." As he spoke, Tarrokov glanced at Han Xiao and continued, "But the possibility of other forces cannot be ruled out. ”

Han Xiao noticed his eyes and spoke in an affirmative tone: "It's the Void Spirit Sect." ”

Tarrokov looked at him again, nodded slowly, and said in a calm tone, "Understood." ”

Han Xiao's face looked calm, but his actual mood was extremely solemn.

His words were not speculation, as soon as this mysterious fleet appeared, a mission trigger prompt popped up on his panel, and the mission introduction revealed that it was the action of the Ethereal Spirit Sect.

[You have triggered the urgent mission [Cause and Effect]!] ]

[Brief Description: You have taken the Transformation Cube, attracting the hostility of the Ethereal Spirit Sect, and today they finally took action and decided to strike a thunderbolt on you and retake the Evolution Cube!] ]

[Requirements: Fight off enemies or escape]

[Failure Condition: 1. Death]

[2.Lose Evolution Block]

[Rewards: 240e~450e XP, Legend +1, Random Reward x3, Unknown Character Card x3]

When he saw the reward, Han Xiao was shocked.

A minimum of 24 billion experience rewards?! When I first beat Heber, the highest reward for the task was only 8.5 billion experience!

Even from his point of view, this is a huge experience!

Han Xiao couldn't be happy at all, because the reward was directly proportional to the difficulty, and such a high reward meant that the attack of the Void Spirit Sect this time would be unprecedentedly terrifying! The maximum experience is more than 40 billion, which means that there are more than five super A-level!

Who can withstand this!

Although Han Xiao secretly invited other foreign aid for the sake of insurance, he couldn't help but retreat, but at the same time, he was vigilant:

- If you escape through the stargate now, it is logically safe, but there is a minimum reward of more than 20 billion yuan for successful escape, will it be so easy to complete the task?

Maybe the Ethereal Spirit Sect has some unknown means, if he escapes now, he will be caught alone?

He is under heavy protection, and he is safe for now, but if he runs away when he sees an enemy, he will also be despised by the Empire. After thinking about it, Han Xiao did not act rashly for the time being, but followed Tarrokov to the war room, intending to wait and see the situation.

The buffer zone is wide enough that it's never too late to see the situation and decide whether to run or not.

The task is called cause and effect...... Hey, sure enough, other people's cosmic treasures are not so easy to hold. Han Xiao grinned secretly.

However, none of those present knew about his mental activity.

Tarrokov watched the changes on the battlefield intently, and slowly gave the order:

"Inform all the allies of the empire who are out to explore, all super A-level combat forces will return immediately, and rush to the aid of the lighthouse star as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Han Xiao's eyes lit up and nodded secretly.

Apparently Tarrokov also sensed this, and the commander-in-chief still had a vision.

There are still three super A-level combat forces in the empire that are exploring in the shining world, Herbert, Raven Lauder, and the mechanic Maxirol who is on the edge of the side, if they all rush back and the six super A-level gather, then they will basically not intimidate the enemy.

I don't know how many high-level combat power the Ethereal Spirit Sect has, Tarrokov doesn't care about making a big fuss, his style is steady, not afraid of trouble, even if it turns out to be too much later, it's better than regretting.

"The Imperial fleet in the war has sent a message for help, they can't stop the enemy, commander-in-chief, do we send the outer guard troops from other areas nearby to help?"

Tarrokov squinted his eyes and observed for a while, "Only mobilize the alert troops in that direction, and the peripheral troops in other directions should not move, and the rest will be sent reinforcements by the headquarters of the Lighthouse Star." ”

Beoni was a little surprised, "Sending a fleet from the headquarters will delay a lot of time on the road, this group of enemies will break through for a long distance, why don't you directly mobilize the fleets on the periphery?" ”

Tarrokov said in a deep voice: "The enemy's fleet is alone and unmarked, I think this is not a large force of the Ethereal Spirit Sect, but an advance army, the purpose of which is to involve our outer defense line and make the alert sector vacant." And their large army will take advantage of the loopholes in the alert sector to break through from other directions, forming a situation of two-sided or even multi-sided attack, so that we can take care of one and lose the other, this should be the tactics of the Ethereal Spirit Sect. ”

After listening to the commander-in-chief's explanation, everyone looked at the situation carefully and had to admit that this was a plan that the enemy was likely to use, and Tarrokov saw through it, and there was nothing wrong with this method of dealing with it.

"But this is only a temporary response, and then we need intelligence, and we must figure out how much super A-class combat power there is in the enemy's fleet."

Tarrokov turned his head to look at the three of them, and the meaning was self-evident, only the same level could force the same level to make a move.

"Leave it to my ranged troops."

Han Xiao nodded, he was the target of the enemy, the key person in this battle, and in this case, the three super A-level were not suitable for separation.

And the ranged troops he sent out during this time are now functioning just right.

……

"What? Lighthouse Star has been attacked?! ”

The Reynolds Star Cluster, the War Realm Fleet, and Heber, who was bathing in the stars, soon received the news from Jod, and his face couldn't help but change.

"The enemy is the Ethereal Sect, the target is the Black Star, and Commander-in-Chief Tarrokov wants us to go back to support...... Your Excellency, what do we do? Joad asked cautiously.

Herber's brow furrowed, the two still had a disagreement, he didn't want to help Black Star.

However, he immediately thought of something, and his brow slowly relaxed.

"Since it's an order from the Empire, let's go to the rescue, inform my headquarters fleet, and go to the nearest stargate jump point at full speed!"

Hebbel's fleet quickly turned around and headed at full speed towards the stargate that led to the Beacon Star.

Although he has a grudge with Han Xiao, this time it is about the dignity of the empire, and as a member of the empire, it is in his own interests to maintain the status of the empire.

On the other side, the Gaul Star Cluster, the Arcane Research Institute fleet.

Ravenlaud also received a message from Tarrokov asking for help, and after reading it, his face was expressionless.

Blackstar's life or death has nothing to do with him, and he wishes he had one less competitor......

But it's a pity that his power is in the Central Star Sea and depends on the care of the empire.

Such a trivial matter was not suitable for disobeying the orders of the Empire, so he had to bring people to support.

Soon, he discovered an annoying thing, the stargate transportation network built by Black Star in the Gaolu Star Cluster suddenly became a fast support channel, providing convenience for galloping aid, and he had no excuse even if he wanted to delay halfway.

At this moment, Ravenlaud had a flash of inspiration and suddenly realized.

- Could it be that Black Star built a long-distance stargate passage to calculate this point in advance?!

By the way, it must be so, otherwise he really couldn't imagine that there was any need for Black Star to sacrifice his own interests to take the initiative to build a long-distance stargate passage.

Ravenlaud suddenly realized that he had not understood Blackstar's "true intentions" until now, and even laughed at other people's thoughts before this, even if he was not thin-skinned, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in his heart.

……

The fleet of the alien gods gradually penetrated into the hinterland of the alert sector, engaging the Imperial fleet as it advanced, and the battle line was dragged for a long time.

The Imperial fleet released bubbles along the way, stabilizing the space-time coefficient, so that both sides could not enter the jump state, and the speed of the Alien God Fleet inevitably slowed down and was constantly harassed.

Millions of warships exchange fire, forming a picture of a large interstellar war.

Beams of brilliant energy crisscrossed the pitch-black universe, silently carrying a chilling killing machine, and one after another spaceships were shattered and turned into fireworks in the universe.

And in the middle of the battlefield, there was a group of special combat units, it was the long-range mechanical units sent out by Han Xiao, like a group of crows, shuttling back and forth in the formation of the Ark of the Fallen Ark, shooting out a flickering beam of ghostly energy between the lightning and thunder of the mechanical power, exploding clouds of dark blue chain explosive energy on the shields and outer armor of the quadrangular battleships.

This mechanical unit has more than 100,000 mechanical soldiers, which is in a state of mechanical power bonus, and its performance has increased dramatically, reaching the level of combat power at the super A-level level, and it is invincible in the battlefield, killing seven in and seven out, destroying a large number of enemy ships, and its own casualty rate is quite slow.

Energy Burst! Three more enemy ships were destroyed by concentrated fire, and the mechanical unit was about to look for the next target, when a surging black and red energy column passed through the explosive flame ball of the spaceship and blasted into the formation of the mechanical unit, instantly engulfing the small half of the force.

After the pillar of light passed through, I saw that the mechanical soldiers who had been hit had already turned into charred discarded parts in the sky.

Han Xiao, who was far away in the remote control of the Lighthouse Star, stared at him.

"The enemy's super A-class has moved! The power of such an attack ...... Not your average guy. ”

Through the field of vision of the mechanical troops, Han Xiao was firmly staring at the direction from which the attack came, wanting to see who the enemy was, and the figure of the alien god suddenly entered his line of sight.

The next moment, Tarrokov, Milizaus, and Beoni next to him saw Han Xiao's face change suddenly.

"Do you see clearly, who is the enemy?" Tarrokov hurriedly asked.

Han Xiao exhaled with a solemn expression, "Unexpectedly...... Is it a different god, or is it his essence! ”

As soon as these words came out, several people were stunned for a moment.

"Isn't the enemy an Ethereal Spirit Sect, how could a foreign god be here?!"

Beoni was shocked, because he had personally fought with the other gods, and he knew very well the power of the other gods, and he was very jealous.

Tarrokov's expression became more and more serious, "It must be the Ethereal Spirit Sect that helped the alien god to leave the Central Star Sea, damn it, in order to evolve the cube, they actually joined forces with this kind of person!" ”

The combat power of the alien god is well-known in the whole universe, but this time, there is also a top super A-level powerhouse who has been famous for a long time on his side.

Milizaus shook his head, "I've fought the Alien God many times, and it's not a problem to stop him, but I can't be distracted by this guy, so I won't be able to do anything else."

And in addition to the alien gods, the Ethereal Spirit Sect must have other high-level combat powers, and the situation is not in our favor, Commander-in-Chief, what do you think? ”

Hearing this, Tarrokov fell into thought.

Now the enemy has a strange god and millions of warships on the surface, and there are at least three super A-class and more fleets in the shadows.

On his side, there are three super A-level plus the 4 million garrison fleet of the Lighthouse Star, which is naturally backward in terms of combat power, but with the depth of the alert sector, he has the capital to delay time, and the empire has more fleets in this star field, which are rushing to help from various regions.

What Tarrokov was considering was whether to retreat immediately or hold on until reinforcements arrived.

The enemy's target is the Black Star, and if you retreat now, you should be able to save the Black Star, but the Imperial Outpost will definitely be destroyed by the enemy after losing its guards, and the loss of resources will be secondary, mainly to prevent the enemy from mastering the Star Gate here, and it must be closed, so the Empire will temporarily lose the transit core of the Star Gate transportation network, and the mobility will be greatly reduced.

Thinking of this, he looked at the battle situation again, except for the Imperial fleet facing the alien gods, the outer defense fleets of the division in other directions of the alert sector did not move, and always maintained the vigilance of their respective areas of responsibility.

Previously, he also sent a part of the garrison fleet of the Lighthouse Star Headquarters to be distributed in the deep zone as a rapid reaction force, so as to save the time of the headquarters and prevent the second group of enemies from taking the opportunity to surprise attack.

After thinking about it, Tarrokov exhaled a breath and said in a deep voice: "Although the situation is not good, we have the capital to hold on, try our best to delay, as long as the reinforcements arrive, we will ...... peace"

Woooooo

Before the words fell, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the war room.

"Alert! Alert! Abnormal space-time fluctuations in the outer orbit of the planet have been detected! The space-time coefficient is offset, and a wormhole is being formed! ”

"Wormholes? Portals? ”

Tarrokov looked surprised, the appearance of the wormhole did surprise him, but it was not because he was unprepared, with the technology of the Red Empire, the Lighthouse Star must be equipped with a countermeasure device to interrupt the teleportation, and it was impossible for the Ethereal Sect, which was a cosmic-level civilization, not to know this.

What he didn't understand was how the Ethereal Spirit Sect could make such a doomed and futile attempt?!

The picture was transmitted back, and in the outer orbit of the Lighthouse Star, a twisted and folded space suddenly appeared, which was a sign of wormholes, and the garrison of the Beacon Star also reacted immediately, activating the device to stabilize the space, and the effect was to directly interrupt the formation of the wormhole, whether the cause was magic or technology.

However, the next situation made everyone present stunned, the tried and tested artificial wormhole countermeasure device did not take effect, the spatial fold did not stop, but the wormhole did not appear with it, but a strange scene occurred.

I saw that the blurred shadows of warships gradually appeared in outer space, like a mirage-like illusion.

Just when a few people were stunned, the next moment, the folded space instantly seemed to be scalded by an invisible iron, and these phantoms suddenly became solid, and in the blink of an eye, they changed from an illusion of nothingness to a real entity!

And this fleet is all ships of the Ethereal Sect, and there are also millions of warships, including the famous butterfly master ship!

In an instant, millions of fleets descended directly on the Lighthouse Star!

Directly ignoring the depth of the Beacon Star, but because the Beacon Star sent a lot of headquarters fleets, the Beacon Star's guard strength was weakened - this is the tactic of the Ethereal Spirit Sect.

Tarrokov suddenly remembered something, and his face changed drastically.

"This is not a wormhole teleportation, only the Radiant Federation's strategic cosmic treasure [High-Dimensional Apocalypse Teleporter] has this effect!"

"This! The Ethereal Sect has joined forces with the Radiant Federation?! ”
