CHAPTER 528: CHAPTER 317: YOU’RE SURROUNDED!
Proxima Centauri b, at the space military base, two sub-light-speed battleships and nearly a hundred warships are all gathering here.
At their respective facilities, enemy warships keep appearing.
"The number of enemy sub-light-speed battleships has reached fifteen!" This is the intelligence brought by the reconnaissance ship, and for this, they have lost several reconnaissance ships and countless reconnaissance satellites.
"Fifteen sub-light-speed battleships!" Ding Yue exclaimed, "This force can destroy a civilization below level 2.5."
"Commander, what should we do now? Go out and fight them. Our warships can take on two, even three, as long as they are scattered and destroyed one by one, we still have a chance." The subordinates were eager to attack.
"Separate the warships, hold them off, no need to take risks." Ding Yue ordered.
"Yes!" The warships dispersed, heading towards various locations, only using long-range weapons to harass, while the two sub-light-speed battleships temporarily stationed at Proxima Centauri b did not move.
"They’ve exhausted their strategies!" Ruger and others noticed the Blue Star Civilization’s movements, "They are only sending some planet-level warships, which can’t cause us any harm."
"The sub-light-speed battleships are still hiding in the space base."
"Since that’s the case." Ruger waved his hand, saying, "Directly advance to Proxima Centauri b, and eliminate them all in one go!"
"Yes!" The warships moved together.
Maoshi Star Union’s warships were getting closer to Proxima Centauri b, and Ding Yue kept an eye on their distance.
"It’s about time, their warships have entered the encirclement, if we strike now, not a single one can escape!" Ding Yue reported to the Commander.
"Move out, first eliminate Team C." He Xingzhou ordered.
Maoshi Star Union’s warships divided into three teams, Team A with six ships, Team B with five ships, and Team C with four ships.
They came from three directions, intending to block Blue Star Civilization’s escape routes.
"Yes!" Two sub-light-speed battleships headed towards Team C’s direction.
Team C’s reconnaissance ship quickly detected their movement, "Commander, Blue Star Civilization’s warships are coming towards us!"
"They think your warships are fewer and want to break through the encirclement!" Ruger assumed he had the insight, saying, "If you can eliminate them, then do so. If not, at least restrict them, we’ll be there soon."
"Today, this star system will be their grave!"
Their distance was already very close, within a day’s journey.
Team C’s warships had also undergone upgrades, and were no weaker than Blue Star Civilization’s sub-light-speed battleships. Ruger believed with four against two, there was no reason to lose.
Ding Yue had already set off with the warships, and within less than an hour, they met with Team C.
The two sides began to battle across astronomical units.
"Phase Beam! Fire!"
"Crystal Core Kinetic Cannon! Give them a shot!" Ding Yue commanded the warships to fire with full force.
The enemy was also firing, both sides raised their energy shields simultaneously.
The phase beam hit the enemy’s energy shield but didn’t penetrate quickly like last time, instead being blocked outside and gradually worn down.
"Their energy shield technology has indeed improved!" Ding Yue became alert.
Meanwhile, their crystal core kinetic cannon was destroyed by subatomic weapons as it was about to hit the enemy.
"Haha, over these decades, our equipment has improved a notch, we really have to thank you!" Team C’s Commander, a member of the Goa Civilization, Defoe, said.
Last time, after Goa Civilization lost two sub-light-speed battleships, Maoshi Star Civilization sent technical officers to help them upgrade their warships, greatly enhancing their civilization’s strength.
On the Blue Star Civilization side, their energy shields could also block the enemy’s attacks, but they were two against four, consuming energy faster.
If the battle continued like this, undoubtedly, Blue Star Civilization’s warships would lose!
"Encircle them, avenge our previous defeat!" Goa Civilization’s leader shouted.
"All encircle them, blast them apart!" Defoe followed suit.
The four warships began to accelerate, closing in on Blue Star Civilization’s two warships.
Blue Star Civilization’s warships started to retreat, while they pursued relentlessly.
"Trying to run away, it’s too late!" On another end, Team A and Team B also closed in, they were in a non-combat state, able to power through at 99% light speed.
Just two hours later, Blue Star Civilization’s two ships were trapped in their encirclement; fifteen warships surrounded them in space at all angles, blocking any escape route.
"Haha, this battle today is a sure win!" Ruger could already see the picture of victory, with such a formation, the enemy was caught inescapably!
"Attention warships ahead, you have been surrounded, lay down your weapons, and surrender immediately, we treat prisoners well!" This shout was not made by Ruger, but by Blue Star Civilization’s warships sending them a message.
"They’re crazy? We’re clearly the ones who surrounded them!" Defoe said in confusion.
"Reconnaissance ships, any situation?" Ruger became suspicious and asked.
"We haven’t found any special situation, the rest of the enemy’s warships seem to be coming around, but they are all planet-level warships, posing no threat to us." Reconnaissance ship captains reported.
"That’s strange, are they just bluffing?" Ruger couldn’t figure it out, then said, "Ignore them, open fire first, wipe them out!"
"Yes!" Warships within the attack range began to fire, at this time, Blue Star Civilization’s two warships had completely abandoned attack, using all their energy to support their energy shields.
