Boom boom...

Under the full force of the two legions, countless annihilators were destroyed almost every second.

A seemingly huge, but somewhat insignificant opening compared to the entire array of mechanical civilizations.

At this moment, it has been torn apart.

And what Shangguan Ningxue and Duan Xingke have to do now...

It's not about tearing this hole bigger, it's about digging deeper!

"Triangular array, advance with the whole fleet, stuff the front array in!"

"The perimeter is in charge of the First Army, and the only thing we have to do is to keep waving the shovel and dig this pit deeper!"

In the bridge of the Tsukinomiya Battle Star, three figures are projected here, and they are the commanders of the three standard fleets under the command of the directly subordinate legion.

Shangguan Ningxue waved her hand and said.

And at this moment...

"Legion Commander, the battle star salvo order from the Open Heaven, start in ten seconds!"

"Import the coordinates of the four attacks assigned to us."

"The coordinates have been imported, and the space compression cannon has been calibrated!"

“... Launch! ”

A moment later, when the countdown reached zero, Shangguan Ningxue shouted reluctantly.

The Space Compression Cannon is not the same as other space weapons.

When attacking, there is no need for the forward fleet to give way, because the Space Compression Cannon is directly applied to the target, rather than a space cut or space penetration, and sweeps all the way through.

Therefore, the warships that stand in front of each battlestar will not be attacked.

As for the first round, seven battleships attacked at the front of the battle, only because they attacked a little farther, even if it was only a thousand kilometers.

But now, the front-line fleet is fighting fiercely, so naturally it is impossible to deliberately let them get out of the way, and then the battlestar runs to the front to launch.

Same as the previous wave.

Twenty-eight spatial coordinates, with a range of tens of thousands of kilometers around them, were cleaned in an instant.

The area where a large number of Annihilators had gathered just now was instantly emptied.

"The road ahead has been opened, keep moving forward!"

"Yes, Captain!"

------

At the same time.

On a mechanical planet.

The mastermind is analyzing the latest battle situation.

[The target advancement cannot be effectively blocked, and the probability that the final target is the punisher is 97.5%]

[Countermeasures are being selected...]

[The countermeasure plan has been determined, start the punisher in advance, and complete a round of firepower output]

【Calculating... After attacking, the Punisher's weapon system will have a 77.8% chance of further damage, and the repair time will be extended by 11 minutes]

【Analyzing... This has been determined to be the minimum cost]

[Punisher, Start Activating]

[Estimated start time... 18 mins】

At this moment, inside the punisher, the mechanical entities that were undergoing repairs of various systems stopped at the same time, and every minute and second was not missing.

Subsequently, the energy, weapons, etc., began the start-up procedure.

Of course, as a first activation, it is very slow.

But this is not a problem, because in the calculation of the mastermind, according to the current tactics of the development fleet, it is enough to threaten the deep area of the punisher...

It will also take at least an hour.

[The server success rate is 17%, and the main weapon success rate is 40%]

[Forced start, complete damage rate 92%]

[Abandon the activation of the main and secondary weapons, and only activate the punishment cannon, change the energy transmission route, and give priority to meeting the charging needs of the punishment cannon]

【Completed!】 】

------

Open Sky Battle Star.

Bridge!

was arranged by Jiang Xingchen, and Ouyang Qing, who had been keeping an eye on the punisher before the end of the battle.

Looking at the data that kept flashing in the dozens of virtual panels in front of him, his eyes widened.

"Commander, that giant mechanical creation, there is an energy reaction inside, and it seems to be activating!"

"Can you tell how much time is left until it starts?"

"Can't judge!"

"Ling Xiao, execute and notify all fleets, always be ready for hyperspace!"

"Yes, Commander!"

Nodding, Ling Xiao immediately conveyed the order to the legions on his command terminal.

"Commander, we're still nearly a hundred light-seconds away from that mechanical artifact, so it shouldn't be a threat to us, right?"

After the order was delivered, Ling Xiao asked.

Not only him, but in fact, most people in the development fleet have the following deep impression of mechanical civilization in their minds.

Advantages: high speed, high maneuverability.

Disadvantages: low defense, short range.

A range of hundreds of lightseconds?

Sorry, this really can't be associated with mechanical civilization.

"Ling Xiao, don't be absolute in anything, otherwise..."

"Yes, Commander!"

Hearing this, Ling Xiao nodded solemnly.

Because, he's already realized.

I have made this old mistake of empiricism again!

That's right, there are never absolutes on the battlefield, let alone this mechanical civilization that humans know little about?

The less information there is, the more careful you have to be.

Otherwise, the probability of overturning will definitely not be small.

Besides, if it's useless, mechanical civilization needs to be so inferior and so far away.

Is this going to be activated?

Obviously, since they did so, this thing should have the means to threaten the development fleet.

"Commander, there's a change in the surface structure of that mechanical body!"

"Give me an observation screen!"

"Yes, Commander!"

At this time, Ouyang Qing reported again.

There was a hint of anxiety in his voice.

Soon, the observation was displayed.

Somewhere on the punisher's shell, a huge opening was opened.

Instantly, a very large device slowly rose from its interior and finally rested on top of the shell of the Punisher.

"Can you figure out what this thing is?"

"I can't be sure, but according to its structure, it is most likely a weapon, and with such a large size, it is likely to be a fortress gun-level weapon!"

"I can detect that the giant mechanical creature is powering this device."

Fortress artillery ...

Seriously, since the Federation became a fifth-order civilization.

The word has almost disappeared from the federal dictionary.

But in the time of the third and fourth order civilizations, fortress cannons were very common.

Although the technological direction of the mechanical civilization is very strange, and it is much stronger than the fourth-order civilization.

But in essence, their combat methods are still the combat methods of fourth-order civilizations.

And if that thing is a fortress gun...

However, a hundred light-seconds away...

It seems that something can be done here!

"Ling Xiao, give orders to all legion commanders, next..."

"It's... I'm going to do it right away! ”

------

Tsukinomiya Battle Star, bridge.

"Commander, is this serious?"

On the side of Shangguan Ningxue, Bai Zhuo, who was an adjutant, was instantly stunned after seeing the order.

"No, I think this method is very feasible, and if it succeeds, we can even end the fight early!"

"At least... It is also to dispose of those mechanical civilizations in the core area in advance. ”

Although Bai Zhuo was a little confused, Shangguan Ningxue's opinion was completely opposite to his.

even, showing a look of excitement...
