Chapter 825: It's better to kill than to catch
The death of a creature is not the end, but the beginning of a great war.
As if stabbing a hornet's nest, a large number of tentacle monsters of the same type suddenly appeared in the star system, also with the ability to teleport, and the gatherers fell into the encirclement at once.
However, the gatherers who had already adjusted to battle were not afraid at all, and the enemy's misshapen and distorted appearance could not shake their minds, and their will to fight was as strong as a rock.
With the launch of sub-light shells, the tentacle monsters burst one after another.
In terms of actual performance, there were no shells to be seen, only a place not far from the collectors, and suddenly a lot of light sources bloomed, and in the next moment, the tentacle monster exploded, each light source represented the death omen of a monster.
In addition, there is the addition of faster-than-light shells, which are more lethal and invisible than the former's sub-light speed, because it's faster-than-light, so there will be no traces left, and it won't be able to do targeted defense, and many monsters won't react to how they died until they died.
However, the tentacle monsters are not vegetarians, and with their teleportation ability and lightsabers that burst out as pulse cannons, they have a one-to-two battle damage ratio with the gatherers, and they have exchanged one gatherer for one faster than the speed of light at the cost of two.
The battle was raging, and suddenly, the gatherers received orders from the leader of the cluster.
"Attention everyone, go to the new coordinates and give up the grappling!"
"Retreat? We have the upper hand! ”
The red-eyed gatherer couldn't help but be a little stunned, the stars had not changed, the blow of great destruction had not come, and now the enemy was also suppressed by them, why was he suddenly asked to retreat?
"Retreat first, this encounter will not do us any good! Give me all orders! ”
With no other choice, the gatherers left their enemies behind and went to a faster-than-light state to their new destination, the star.
The enemy did not pursue, because when they tried to pursue, they found that they could no longer lock on to the cluster of gatherers who had escaped in the faster-than-light state, and they could not even lock the position, so naturally they could not talk about pursuit, so they had no choice but to give up.
Arriving at the new star system, the Gatherers still haven't let their guard down, fearing that the enemy will teleport through the stars and jump out to attack them.
In response to the sudden order to retreat, an individual asked the leader of the cluster.
"Why the sudden order to retreat? It's not that the cluster is incapable of defeating that Seventh Estate. ”
Yes, based on the state of the battle just now, it only took the gatherers a few days to clear the enemy, and although there would be a certain amount of sacrifice, it would be a drop in the bucket in the eyes of the gatherers.
The leader of the cluster asked rhetorically, "What good is it to defeat them?" Win all the material resources of a star system that could explode at any moment? ”
"What the race needs most is to capture them alive, those Seventh Estates know many secrets, and by capturing them, we may be able to dig up the location of the source of the Great Destruction Energy."
Whether or not the cluster wins the battle, the Gatherers are not destined to stay in that star system for long due to the Great Destruction.
And the discovery of the Seventh Tier has a far greater impact on the race than mining the star system of the Gate World.
Although the Seventh Estate are like waste, and have been beaten by them for so long, at least they themselves are a record of things that many gatherers don't know.
In other words, the living Seventh Tier is more useful than the dead, especially now that the Gatherers don't know much about the Great Destruction, and if they can get new information about the Great Destruction from this Seventh Estate, even if it is just a little bit, it is excellent for the race, much more useful than mining the material resources of ten star systems.
"Didn't the Seventh Tier already tell us all about the Great Destruction?" There is a rhetorical question that the collector is puzzled about.
"That's the Revealed, and judging by the warlords we're fighting, it's clear that this Seventh Estate is the other, and besides, how can you be sure that the Reveal isn't hiding a part from the Clan? Don't be deceived by the stupid arrogance of the Seventh Estate, they are also cunning. The cluster leader explained.
The Seventh Estate does not refer to a single cosmic force, but a collection, in which there are various races and forces, and they are also hostile to each other and guard against each other, so it is absolutely impossible to achieve absolute information exchange.
Even if the Collectors really didn't want to hide and deceive the amoeba, there is no guarantee that the other Seventh Estates will not know more about the Destruction than the Revelations.
Therefore, the idea of the leader of the cluster is to be able to catch one by one, try his best to dig up new clues about the great destruction from the seventh level, know oneself and know the other in order to win all battles, and every time the clan understands a little more information about the great destruction, the great destruction will be weaker.
"Start building the war, and first cut off their tricky ability to operate the spiritual realm." The cluster leader issues instructions.
The gatherers began to build the Ripple Structure, which was originally designed for the ability of the seventh level of the Gate World to use the Spirit Domain, and the ability to use the Spirit Domain could be sealed by gravitational waves in disguise.
But at the same time, it doesn't have any other effects other than the ability to seal creatures to use the spirit realm, and the material resources consumed to build this giant creature are second only to the Star Swallowing Giant Structure, out of consideration for the whole cluster and doubts about whether the gate world still exists, the gatherers have no idea of building this kind of giant structure before.
The reserve acceleration pipeline is constructed into a circle of gravitational rings, one ring after another, and the three variable rings of the core are preferentially constructed.
At the same time, in order to ensure that the speed of light can be achieved, the upper and lower circular surfaces of the gravitational ring are thickened, and the inner part is equipped with a ring pipe that can hold negative matter.
Halfway through the build, the cluster and the half-finished rippling megastructure travel faster than light to the new star system, where it continues to build the ripple megastructure.
With such continuous superluminal speed and construction of megastructures, the gatherers finally accumulated seven huge ripple megastructures.
When everything is ready, the leader of the cluster issues the order to attack.
"Let's go! Capture the Seventh Estate! ”
The completion of the ripple structure has announced that there will be no suspense in this battle, and the ripple structure that began to operate as soon as it entered the star system stirred up a circle of ripples in time and space.
The tentacle monsters in the door world, all the abilities that have been exerted through the spiritual realm have all been declared invalid.
The Ripple Giant is their nemesis!
Except for a few tentacle monsters who saw that the situation was not good, and escaped by jumping through the spiritual realm while they were not affected by the ripples of time and space, the vast majority of tentacle monsters lost all abilities and couldn't even move their tentacles.
