Chapter 723: Guarding the Gate of Time and Space
The Gate of Time and Space is composed of a total of 5,120 structural units with different functions in an extremely complex form.
To date, more than 22% of the structural units have been destroyed by enemies hiding in eerie "gray areas". The damage rate of 22% is definitely a rather terrifying value for [Time and Space Gate].
Because, if the damage rate exceeds 10%, the normal operation of the [Time and Space Gate] will be broken. Above 30%, the Gate will cease to function. And more than half, then the [Time and Space Gate] is considered completely finished!
After the completion of the [Time and Space Gate], the 22% damage rate is already the highest number in the long years since the cataclysm of the 182741 Era!
This is simply reminiscent of the possibility that the world on the edge of the universe will fall into the Third Great Chaos Era.
At the very least, the war over the [Time and Space Gate] has been in full swing, from the main structure to the surrounding structural units.
At this moment, in the surrounding star fields of the main structure of the [Gate of Time and Space], there is a super strong gravitational force, and under the traction of the super strong gravitational force, countless stars, planets, star dust and various artificial celestial bodies are running wildly around the main structure of the [Gate of Time and Space], which shows that the operation of the [Gate of Time and Space] has fallen into an abnormality, and her self-protection state has been opened.
The tremendous energy released by the violent friction with the interstellar particles brought about by the extremely high speed has illuminated this incomparably vast star field!
In an instant, the background color of the universe seemed to have changed from dark to light gray.
Due to the Annihilation Alliance's clever use of the "Grey Zone", the fleet that saved the Alliance from the main structure of the [Time and Space Gate] was dispersed. Therefore, on the current battle front, the main fleet of the Annihilation Alliance has an absolute advantage in terms of numbers and combat effectiveness.
But the starfleets that saved the alliance did not panic, they made full use of the interstellar defense front stationed in the starfield, successfully held off the powerful enemy, and waited for the coalition fleet to retreat from the various structural units.
In the midst of the boundless darkness and dazzling bright light, countless warships from the two opposing camps are composing an extremely tragic and shocking epic cosmic iron-blooded poem.
Countless fleets emitting blue or purple glowing firelight are converging and charging towards the heart of the [Time and Space Gate], these are artificial intelligence fleets that rely on dark energy and dark matter, they are like ghosts shuttling through the dark woods in the night.
And those warships that are simply innumerable, with uniform shapes and styles, are the mechanical civilization legions in the Annihilation Alliance, they are not afraid of death, like maggots on tarsal bones, in the void to encircle and intercept the fleet and defense system that saved the Alliance, like a giant meat grinder, all the time strangling themselves and saving the Alliance's forces.
The closer you get to the main structure of the [Time and Space Gate], the more intense the battle becomes.
Countless warships were entangled and fighting fiercely with each other, and the rays of various rays with no less power than gamma ray bursts frequently lit up the light gray cosmic map, and all kinds of strange bombs appeared in the depths of the starry sky like ghosts, tearing and compressing all kinds of man-made and non-man-made celestial bodies and wantonly tearing apart or compressing the space below the fourth dimension.
For a while, the wreckage of the destroyed battleship was everywhere, and everywhere was filled with the fragments of various celestial bodies after disintegration, and the universe turned into a miserable tomb, and even the void was wailing.
As time passed, the flames of war became more and more overwhelming, and eventually they all converged into various forms of energy torrents, violently washing everything away.
Only the Battlestar Legion of the main civilization has been violently washed by the energy stream, and has always stood tall, like a stone in the middle of the wave!
Like the Alliance's No. 271 Battle Star that Yuan Haochen and other coalition representatives entered when they participated in the military joint conference, these small artificial celestial bodies with round bodies, although the diameter is only between 110~200 kilometers, but the mass is all surprisingly large without exception, they are like small black holes, constantly devouring the dazzling energy and various interstellar debris around them.
The mighty Battlestar Legion is like a terrifying cosmic vacuum cleaner, no matter what kind of attack they encounter, no matter what type of warship they collide with, they will all be treated as nothing, rampage, and kill in all directions.
……
At the same time, in the core area of the [Gate of Time and Space] No. 1562 energy unit, the command center of the Alliance's 271st Starfleet.
The silicon-based mechanical civilization fleet has all arrived at the twin quasars and is stationed around the super space tunnel leading to the main structure of the [Gate of Time and Space].
As General Volcano Ball had guessed, the Romulan civilization fleet, which was originally responsible for the defense of the Aurora Galaxy, had entered the Super Space Tunnel long before they arrived, becoming one of the first coalition fleets to leave the [Time and Space Gate] No. 1562 energy unit.
The advantage of being the first to leave is obvious.
First of all, they can get out of the threat of the "Gray Zone" as soon as possible, no one can guarantee that the "Gray Zone" will not arrive in advance, once the situation changes, the zero light speed barrier will inevitably be opened in advance, and no one will be able to leave the [Time and Space Gate] No. 1562 energy unit at that time.
Secondly, the later you reach the heart of the [Gate of Time and Space], the greater the risk you will face, because the main fleet of the Annihilation Alliance is constantly destroying and blocking the retreat of the coalition forces scattered in various structural units. In the worst-case scenario, the retreating coalition forces may also have a tragic situation of "catching a turtle in an urn".
The Silicon-based Mechanical Civilization Fleet is the third batch of coalition fleets to leave the [Gate of Time and Space] No. 1562 energy unit. Also leaving at the same time were another neighbor of the Vortex Galaxy, the Infinite Civilization Fleet stationed in the Daya Galaxy, and the other two bigwigs who saved the Alliance, the Evoke Civilization Fleet and the Crimson Light Civilization Fleet.
At the last moment before leaving, the supreme military leader of the energy unit's garrison area, General Meng Chao, also specially met with the leaders of the various fleets who were preparing to withdraw the coalition forces, and held a brief but formal farewell ceremony as usual.
[Goodbye, warriors who belong to different civilizations and different coalition fleets!] 】
The solemn image of General Meng appeared in various forms in every fleet ready to go.
[The universe is very vast, time is very far away, in the face of a powerful enemy, there are many uncertainties, through the super space tunnel, we may not see each other again, but we once cherished the same ideals and shouldered the common responsibility, which is enough. 】
General Meng Chao's expression was indifferent, and Gu Jing continued without wavering: [Today, you will set off from one battlefield to another, where more important responsibilities await you. In any case, protecting the gate of time and space is the fate and glory of every civilization and every person! 】
[Frankly, compared to the Annihilation Alliance's war machines and artificial intelligence that does not change temperature, our fleets dominated by intelligent life have an innate weakness.] Nervousness, impatience, fear of death, and the pursuit of advantages and disadvantages are not without such phenomena in our coalition fleet. Until recently, I personally had a defeatist mentality, and it is undeniable that in terms of the defensive campaign in our theater of operations, we were a complete failure, so we had to choose the zero-speed barrier. But this does not mean the ultimate destruction of the [Time and Space Gate], and the fear of death and cowardice will not prevent us from fighting like heroes. We will face an even more heroic battle, from which none of us can stay away. No matter what civilization the fleet is, no matter how strong or weak it is, we are an indispensable link in the long chain of alliance defense. Everyone should fulfill his task, and everyone should be responsible for the alliance. Every civilization, every fleet, is crucial to the grand chapter of the entire campaign. Therefore, quickly abandon the shameful idea that we are only a million of them, forget all the negative factors and negative emotions, and stop thinking about the boring things such as how to breed the next generation happily, because at this important moment, all links must perform their duties and responsibilities, so that the entire chain of defense will be unbreakable, and we can defeat the perverted enemies of the Annihilation Alliance......]
[So, in this last moment, I wish you all the best luck!] If there is any possibility, we will see you in the distant future, I am the Supreme Military Commander of the Alliance's 271st Starfleet. 】
