With the total annihilation of the cluster of reconnaissance ships hidden in a favorable position in the front, the main fleet in the rear, which had just set up an attack formation, instantly lost most of the observation data.

The position of the fleet's main formation, the central flagship of the ten-kilometer-long center, the commander-in-chief with a red-skinned head is in a state of astonishment.

"What did you say?"

The messenger swallowed and recounted the results he had just received.

"Sir, all signals from the forward reconnaissance ship cluster have disappeared... ”

Although the news is amazing, the person who can be the commander-in-chief must be a person with extraordinary ability.

In this place where all ethnic groups are in danger, nepotism and behind-the-scenes transactions are certainly inevitable, but the most important thing that really determines a person's high position is ability.

The commander reacted immediately.

"Connect to the Fleet channel, quick!"

"It's connected. ”

The Communicator adjusted the channel overlay in a few clicks so that the commander's avatar appeared on the side of the main screen of all ships.

"All warships, open all optical observation windows, and each ship immediately sprays transparent heterochromatic interference dust, and re-sprays at 30-second intervals... Convert the scanning band, with numbered squads as the unit, and the front and rear fleets use high-frequency ray detection, field wave radar, and quantum arrays respectively... ”

The slow warships were still in the process of information digestion, while some of the elite warships guarding the periphery of the flanks had quickly operated according to the commander's orders.

The interference dust, which was colorful but extremely transparent and did not affect the penetration of the line of sight, was first released from the jets around each ship, and then the crystal windows that had been closed and the armor were all slowly opened to reveal the landscape opening.

"The dust has been touched by an unknown object, I see it! There are monsters!!"

The spotter shouted from a thousand-meter-long battleship at the very edge.

"Secondary Gun Steering ~ Secondary Gun Turning!

The captain roared and gave the order.

"What about the observation radar, what is it?"

"I can't see it, there's nothing on the radar!"

The observer is constantly changing the means of observation.

"Bang~~"

The entire battleship shook, and by the time their attention was drawn to the monster in the distance, other monsters had fallen above their heads.

"Zila~~~"

There was a tooth-aching cracking sound of metal, and the roof of the bridge was lifted.

The air pressure in the bridge was out of balance, and all non-fixed matter flew frantically from that opening into the outside vacuum.

"Ah~~~~~~h

"Ah~~~~"

Several crew members who were not secured to their safety seats were sucked away, wielding their limbs weakly to grab something, but they could only knock through the gap.

But before they could be completely sucked into space, they were grabbed by a giant claw.

The alarm in the bridge sounded "Di Di Di ~~".

The electronic sound of "air pressure imbalance ~ air pressure imbalance ~" does not stop for a moment.

It all happened in a matter of seconds.

The captain was fixed to his chair and struggled to maintain his head up.

Above, a giant creature resembling a strange insect was looking through the torn hole inside the bridge, chewing up and down on an organ called a mouth, and inside was the crew members who had just flown out.

"Bang~Bang~"

Another shock fell on the rear of this battleship, and it should be some other monster.

The hull of the ship has been pierced again, and the path to the escape ship on the screen has turned red.

The other battleships should have seen it, Mom, take care of yourself!

With this regret, the captain pressed the hull and blew himself up.

The hull of the battleship swelled, and after a few seconds, it turned into an explosion of light.

At the same time, a large number of monsters have been spotted by the fleet, and the radar system has very limited observations, mainly relying on dust reflections to make the radar screen image, or directly from the observation window.

It's not that the radar is useless, these monsters seem to be able to transform their own body surface state, and many of them can be detected by radar, but they will lose their effect after a while.

The battle of the outer clusters has completely begun, but compared to the flexibility of the so-called "Devouring Beasts", the fleet has largely become a target at close range, especially since these monsters follow the fleet as a springboard, and the trajectory of moving is more varied.

A space destroyer has its secondary guns fired at full strength, constantly attacking the worm monster that is tearing at another battleship in the distance.

At such a close distance, as long as you can aim and shoot, with the muzzle velocity of the ship's kinetic weapons, no matter how perverted the monster is, there should be no reaction time.

It's a pity that this is only theoretical.

It's like no one can dodge a bullet at close range, but they can dodge the hand that shoots it.

Due to the serious failure of the tracking and aiming system, the gunners are all manually controlled, and it is difficult to keep up with the speed of the monster and aim accurately, resulting in more and more casualties in the fleet.

"Pawn ~ pawn ~ pawn... ”

The kinetic cannon, which continued to fire, suddenly fell silent, as the bridge of the space destroyer was torn open, and several sharp mouthparts pierced directly into the bridge.

Before the crew, including the captain, could even react, they were sucked dry, and even the skin and bones disappeared from the tips of their mouthparts, leaving only the uniforms that flew towards the gap in the bridge.

The central flagship has not been attacked by monsters for the time being, but the command center bridge has suffered more than the engagement fleet.

"The main battleship on the right flank, the Starry Sky, blew itself up, the frigates Tornado I and No. 3 were killed too close, and the destroyer Blue class was killed too close... ”

"The destroyer Roar on the left flank is silent, and it is suspected that the crew of the destroyer has been killed... ”

。。。

Every piece of news overwhelmed the commander, in less than ten minutes, the main battleship and auxiliary ships were damaged one after another, and not many of the abandoned escape ships were able to escape, these are all space elites, especially an experienced captain.

In the distance, space seemed to be holding a blood-filled death smoke conference.

Even so, he had to maintain his majesty and composure, or everyone in the command center would collapse.

"The Mothership Space Fighter Cluster is starting to be released!"

Finally, there is not bad news.

"Order, the frigate of this formation follows the fighters, and the auxiliary guns of the battleships that can still control themselves on the left and right flanks cooperate with the fighters to attack. ”

The commander breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that the appearance of the fighter plane would have an effect, and the sacrifice for these ten minutes was too great.

And.

He looked worriedly at the left side of the home screen.

The larger number of monsters that can be scanned by radar from the meteorite swarm are getting closer and closer, and even the meteorite swarm itself is constantly changing orbits towards the fleet.

At this time, the fleet in the engaged state has already been "bitten", and it is simply impossible to get out of evasion.

What is even worse is that the fighter plane with high hopes has achieved little success, although it is more flexible, but because the fighter is too small, it cannot be equipped with a large gyration acceleration system, and the cannon mostly uses ammunition thrust, and the kinetic energy cannot be compared with the shipboard weapon at all, and the destructive power is far from enough.

Some soft devourers and small devourers can also achieve results, but they can be hit on large, agile individuals with little effect or miss.

Missile-powered weapons are like cannons hitting mosquitoes when they cannot be tracked, and they either miss or are detonated in advance.

Therefore, the biggest result achieved at present actually relies on the self-explosion of the main battleship.

The commander who got this result sighed, and his red head looked heavier and heavier.

A large number of monsters had begun to appear on the periphery of the formation, and in the observation window, the carapace behemoth that had always been the size of a destroyer opened its belly, and countless tiny insect devouring beasts were released from below, relying on the gas sprayed from its tail as the power, densely flying towards the flagship.
