"What is this ship for?" In the space station next to the portal, the staff gathered to discuss.

It's just that the appearance of this spaceship is too ugly, and the name is so earthy, which arouses the strong curiosity of these staff.

"I don't know, we've never heard of this ship, and we haven't searched for its existence in the Imperial Battleship Database." A staff member shook his head.

In fact, not only did these soldiers not know about the existence of this ship, but even the generals of the Empire, and even the fleet commanders under Eva had never heard of this ship.

At this moment, one after another, the scarred Zeus-class battleships suddenly broke away from hyperspace and came to the open space next to the portal.

"Quick! The fleet is back, and emergency repairs are carried out immediately! "Seeing these scarred battleships, the maintenance drones waiting by the portal hurriedly swarmed up.

Following these Zeus-class battleships back were the cruisers and frigates of the Empire.

Because their defenses were much weaker than those of the Zeus class, they suffered even more heavy losses in the retreat.

By the time they returned to the portal, there were less than half the original number of cruisers and frigates.

The last to retreat were the Empire's White Dwarf-Tier Battleship and the Flagship, the Fortress.

Because the skin was too thick, the White Dwarf-class battleship did not lose a single one, and the Imperial Flagship Fortress remained intact.

"The Imperial Fortress and the White Dwarf-Tier Battleship and the Swarm Mothership One converge and prepare for the next battle!"

"All the rest of the warships will be repaired next to the portal and will be restored to combat effectiveness as soon as possible!" Li Mingze gave orders to all warships through the spiritual network.

The White Dwarf-Star Battleship and the Imperial Fortress, which had just leapt out of hyperspace, arced through the air, parallel to the Hive Mothership One, which was moving away from the portal.

"The Imperial Fort prepares to dock with Motherhive One." Li Mingze pressed the pop-up consent button on the console.

The upper armor of the rear hull of Motherswarm One suddenly bulged and then slid to the sides.

A large hole was left in the center of the hull, and inside the hole was a dense mechanical structure.

The Imperial Fortress flew above the hollow, adjusting its posture and slowly descending.

Before the Imperial Fortress could touch the bottom of the cavern, it was firmly locked by the mechanical arm inside the cavern.

Countless pipes protruded from the mothership and plunged into the interface that the Imperial Fort had just opened.

By this time, the two superships had merged into one, and the mothership of the swarm was equivalent to adding a supercomputer module and a reactor module capable of producing more energy.

It also has the ability to destroy planets and stars at the same time, so it can be said that the merger of the two warships means that no one in this river system can stop them!

Although the armor of this swarm mothership is only normal armor, and is not equipped with dimensional armor and letter crystal armor, it is a presence similar to an aircraft carrier as its name suggests.

For it, combat has always taken place outside of line of sight, and does not threaten itself at all.

What's more, there are 50,000 of the Empire's most elite white dwarf-class warships that will serve as its frigates, protecting its security around it.

"Where is the enemy now, has it been scanned?" In the bridge of the swarm mothership, which is also the bridge of the fortress, Li Mingze looked at the hologram in front of him and asked Tianyi.

"The enemy also seems to have mastered the hyperspace wave shielding device, and our ordinary hyperspace probes can't scan the opponent's movements at all."

"But we have the Eye of the Empire!"

"According to the latest scan results seven hours ago, the opponent's fleet has also disappeared into the universe, apparently entering a hyperspace jump state."

"The destination of the other party is undoubtedly the direction of our portal!" Skywing drew a white track on the hologram that pointed to the Empire's portal.

"The energy fluctuations generated by the portal are too large, and the number of our fleet has skyrocketed after the energy fluctuations, the other party must have guessed that we have some kind of teleportation technology that can teleport a large number of troops from another river system!"

"Therefore, in addition to destroying our fleet this time, the other party will definitely want to obtain our portal technology."

"In addition, our fleet has already withdrawn from the portal, and the other party will definitely use the portal as the destination of their trip." Tianyi analyzed.

"Very well, then we'll stay here and wait!" Li Mingze nodded, leaned back in the chair, and began to close his eyes to recuperate.

A few hours later, the sudden sound of the alarm woke up Li Mingze, who was sleeping lightly.

"Your Majesty, the opposing fleet has appeared in the void two hours away from us."

"It seems that the other party still didn't dare to enter the star system this time, is it worried that we will destroy the star again?" Skywing looked at the Federation fleets that kept appearing outside the star system with some amusement.

These Federation fleets were too bold, and they all drove the Imperial fleet to the edge of the cliff, and they didn't even dare to jump directly into the star system.

It seems that the Empire's frantic destruction of galaxies and planets on the Federation front has scared them out.

"Prepare for battle, all white dwarf-level warships pay attention to protect the swarm mothership, and are ready to form a shield to help the mothership block the attack!"

"The mothership is ready to start the swarm!" As soon as Li Mingze's words fell, the hologram in front of him became the structural diagram of this hive mothership.

On the structure of the mothership, countless blue dots of light began to flicker within its cylindrical hull.

These blue dots of light also have a rotating progress bar.

41%、65%、82%、99%、100%！

When the progress bars are finished, dialog boxes pop up from the screen.

"The swarm is warmed up!"

"100% swarm activation! All Vespa is working properly! ”

"The hive armor plate is ready to open, and the swarm is about to start!"

As soon as the last piece of information disappeared, the entire mothership began to shake violently.

The scaly armor that had been wrapped around the swarm mothership's body suddenly opened outward, revealing the launch bay beneath the armor.

The launch bay was already illuminated by lights, and several robotic arms held a black diamond-shaped fighter plane to the white walls.

This diamond-shaped fighter is very similar in appearance to the Empire's piercing drone, but it is much larger.

"Vespa Observer activated!" The fuselage of these warships suddenly lit up with red electric patterns, and under these electric patterns were the sensors used to sense the surrounding space.

"Vespa gravitational thrusters activate, restraints close!"

The mechanical arm that had bound the Vespa began to be removed from the Vespa and retracted into the wall.
