"This star map looks so weird......"

The leaping creature used its tentacles to constantly change the angle of a paper star map with an area of about 40 A4 sheets of paper, because it always felt that it was taking it backwards.

"Any questions?"

A nearby leaping creature extends a synapse from its side, with an eye at the end of the synapse, and leans next to the paper star map.

"Look, the stellar coordinates over there."

The gatherer drove the tentacles to point to the stars on the star map.

"Any questions?"

"It's a big problem, I haven't found the corresponding star for a long time, I don't know what we got is a fake star map, which the Holy Worm State uses to confuse us."

The gatherers' suspicions were denied by their kind.

"This is very unlikely, in order to determine the accuracy of the star map, the same family on the planet collected all the star maps on the planet, each with some differences, but not very different."

"It's not just about collecting on one planet."

With that, the clan stretched out their tentacles and asked the questioning collector for the paper star map.

"Show me."

"No."

Take the star map and start looking at it.

The depiction of the star map is very rudimentary, this is the most detailed and informative star map on the planet of origin of the paper star map, but it is still very rudimentary in the eyes of the collectors.

The star map is based on a star system as the basic unit, and each star system records it on the star map from a simple overlooking perspective, and there are several stars and planets in the star system, but there are no such things as the distance between the planets and the stars, the specific mass parameters of the stars, etc., which is why in the eyes of the collectors, the star map of the holy state of Vorm is very rudimentary.

One person came up with the idea of comparing the star map of the Holy Worm State with the star map of their race, and this was the scene where the leaping creatures turned the star map over and over.

"Isn't that easy to compare?"

The tentacles tapped on a stellar system coordinate on a paper star map.

"This is where our current star system is."

The previously questioned subject waved his tentacle and explained.

"I know this, I've compared it, but what about the next one? The closest star system to us, 2 light-years, is a binary star system, but it's a single star system. ”

Because there is no matching star system, the questioning individual will be difficult.

However, the same people reject the concept of 'recent' in its discourse.

"No, that star system isn't the recent."

"Not recently?"

The questioning individual was stunned, only to see his fellow clan pointing in the direction of a door with a tentacle point.

"The closest to this star system is the star behind the gate."

"The star charts of the Holy Worm State are all about star systems with gates, through which they complete their transstellar voyages."

After thinking about it, the questioning individual drew inferences and asked rhetorical questions.

“…… Is that 100% sure that the Holy Worm State has no other means to achieve transstellar voyages? The kind of teleportation technology that is suspected to be related to the spiritual realm cannot be cross-star. ”

"That's how it should be... Well? There is a case! All on alert! ”

Halfway through the exchange of information, the observation radar of the leaping creatures caught a large number of warships rushing out from the side of a gate.

The ships soon engaged in an exchange of fire with the new Imperial fleet that was stationed there.

This was a surprise battle, but fortunately, the New Imperial fleet was already on alert and soon entered a combat state.

The fleet of the New Empire could not stop the fleet group of the Holy Vorm State from passing through the door, and a steady stream of warships dropped a large number of mechs after passing through the door, and the group of mechs that spread out was like a dark cloud.

A large number of autonomous ships charged the enemy fleet, and the new Imperial ships were supplemented with gamma-ray cannons from long range for fire support.

On the whole, it was the side of the new empire that had the advantage, but after the battle, the result was the opposite, and the fleet of the new empire was pressed and beaten.

With the huge number of autonomous ships, they have destroyed a lot of enemy warships with a strong charge, but the problem is that the main force of the fleet of the Holy Vorm State is not on the battleship, the battleship is just a consignment platform, and the real combat power is those mecha that can teleport, and these mechas, it is too difficult for the autonomous ship to attack.

The power of an autonomous ship can only be exerted by accelerating itself and colliding with the target, high speed means high inertia, and the higher the speed of the autonomous ship, the more difficult it is to make a snakeskin move, after all, not everyone is like a leaping creature, using positive and antimatter annihilation as a driving force.

"Retreat!"

The commander of the fleet of the new empire gave the order.

"Commander, the order of the superior is to defend ......"

"Shut up! I said retreat! Obey orders! ”

The fleet commander glared at his subordinates, and the fleet followed the commander's instructions to widen the distance between the fleet and the door.

However, the distance between them and the warships of the Holy Worm State has not been widened, and the warships of the Holy Worm State also have the ability to teleport, their thruster technology is really bad, and they still use backward chemical propulsion, but they have teleportation technology, which makes up for the lack of speed of the battleship, even if the speed of the warships of the new empire is higher than that of the battleships of the Holy Worm State, they can't get rid of these enemy ships at all, and in turn fall into the disadvantage of low speed.

With the help of teleportation, many mechs easily invaded the interior of the new imperial warships, and one by one the battleships turned into fireworks in the starry sky, dazzling.

Of course, this method of warfare was quickly curbed by the internal measures of the new empire's battleships, a large number of nanomachines filled the entire battleship, and the mechs that invaded the inside of the battleship from the outside were dismembered in a few minutes if they could not escape in time.

Unlike the old Empire, the new Empire's ships are at full bay fire, as they are at war with the Holy Worm State for many years, and the new Empire's ships focus on close defense.

In the past, the close defense weapons of the New Imperial warships used live ammunition such as electromagnetic machine guns, and the teleportation ability of the mecha was curbed with the help of the difficulty of capturing the trajectory of the bullet's movement.

Now they have been replaced with laser close defense, because they have to guard the door, and they can't let the stray bullets concentrate on the door and activate the counterattack mechanism of the door.

The current strategy of the fleet commander is also to avoid the counterattack mechanism of the gate, and after dealing with the Holy Vorm State for so long, there is no special means to deal with the mecha army, and the new empire has long been captured.

"Almost......"

"Fried!"

With an order, those autonomous ships that were still entangled with the mecha army, but could not attack the teleportation mecha, all exploded, and a large number of bullet volume fragments were scattered, and the number of hundreds of millions was spectacular on a macro scale, like a flower in full bloom.

This is an extremely effective means of killing for the mecha army, you can't dodge, even if you teleport, it's only a short distance, as long as you can't teleport to a long distance at once, you will die.

The scattering of fragments is completely random, and the volume is very small, and the mecha can't rely on teleportation to dodge it all, let alone teleport casually, and the next moment when the teleportation is completed, a fragment directly sticks to the face to penetrate the mecha with only carbon steel strength.

More than half of the mecha army was killed and wounded in an instant, and the warships of the New Empire took this opportunity to snipe from a distance with gamma-ray cannons, further increasing the number of casualties.

There are also many mechs that have survived, and the pilots of these mechs are all elite pilots from the Holy Vorm Country, relying on keen insight and powerful melee technology and light weapons to destroy and vaporize the scattered fragments of the attack, which is enough to save their lives.

Just as the commander of the new Imperial fleet was considering his next tactical move, something unexpected happened.

Instead of continuing their onslaught on the new Empire's warships, the mechs allowed the battleships to distance themselves from the mech army, and retreated behind the door on the remaining ships that had not yet been destroyed.
