“How is the battle at the front line?!”
Zhao Yu asked with a serious look. He had left Colonel Chu, in charge of the battlefield while he focused on the progress of the light-needle production line.
Who would have thought that today’s battle report would show that they had suffered heavy losses, with 300,000 of their warships blown up. In addition, five laser defense systems had been destroyed.
During the past half-year of war preparations, they had gathered just over three million warships. Now they had lost a tenth of that. It hurt to even think about it.
It was a good thing that the warships were controlled by robots. If they were manned by humans, a mutiny might have already occurred.
“Not looking good!”
Colonel Chu shook his head, “The enemy has changed their strategy, continuously sending spaceships to our side…”
“Before, they used to send scout teams. Now, they are sending one spaceship after another. Each one will self-destruct as soon as something seems wrong…”
“In just a few days, the enemy has lost over thirty warships, but our losses are much greater…”
He sighed, then continued, “We were planning to stall a bit at this stage, but now it looks like we must move to the next phase…”
According to his plan, it would take some time for the enemy to figure out the situation within their solar system. But now, the losses were too great; they couldn’t hold on any longer.
“So, it’s time to let the enemy in?” Zhao Yu asked.
“Yes!”
Colonel Chu said awkwardly, “Originally, we planned to wait a while until the enemy was about to flee, then let them in to end the war…”
According to the plan, the reason the level-3 civilization hadn’t acted was that they were waiting for their war to end and then follow the other civilizations’ fleets to their home star system.
In that case, they would be doomed.
So, they needed to maintain a balance, not allowing the six level-2 civilizations outside to escape while continuously fighting with them, for three to five more years.
“Then let them in!”
Zhao Yu nodded, without any regret. During this period, the level-1 civilization had once again contributed a lot of reputation points to him.
There were thirteen level-1 civilizations with progress bars. Five of them remained silent, seemingly not informing their people about the situation in the solar system.
The remaining eight ievei-1 civilizations had all made this situation public.
The progress bars of the Mihui and Sky Bat civilizations moved the fastest, soaring to about 20%.
The other civilizations had unlocked at least one progress bar, with the highest reaching the 15% mark.
His current reputation points had even reached 1800.
[Reputation: 2300 (Available Reputation: 1800)]
[Exchangeable Technology: 1]
[Quantum Interface (Level 3): Use quantum technology to enter the micro world, realizing real-time information transfer across distance limits. Reputation required for exchange: 1000]
A new technology had been unlocked. It was a communication technology.
Zhao Yu could have exchanged it long ago, but he hesitated.
This technology that could deliver information without considering distance was great. After obtaining it, he wouldn’t need to contact Uncle Da through videos.
But since it wasn’t a weapon technology, Zhao Yu was somewhat reluctant to spend his reputation points, deciding to wait.
In his view, if 500 reputation points could be exchanged for a weapon like a light-needle, the next reputation weapon would be even more powerful.
“Alright, let’s abandon the wormhole defense and move to the second phase. We’ll engage in battle within the limit of one million kilometers…”
Colonel Chu said, adding, “Commander, with this, we’ll need to relocate our base to the second base located five million kilometers away.”
“Okay, proceed according to plan!”
The issue of relocating the base was mentioned before. Zhao Yu hadn’t expected it to come so quickly, but he nodded in agreement.
With the solar system abandoning the wormhole defense, the latest warship that came through the wormhole finally escaped back in ten minutes.
“Captain, good news, a warship has escaped back!”
Luka ran all the way, shouting as he went.
This attracted the attention of those nearby.
Upon hearing someone shouting, Kote, instinctively wanted to scold them, but when he heard what Luka was shouting about, he was overjoyed.
He stepped down from the platform and went up to him, “Quickly, tell me what happened!”
“Captain, one of our warships has escaped back…”
Luka took a breath, then continued, “They said there’s a huge fleet and defense fortifications in the target star system…”
“At a glance, there are at least several hundred thousand warships…”
“So many?!”
Kote was somewhat shocked. There were so many warships in the target star system?!
Luka continued, “However, they also discovered a large number of warship wrecks floating around the wormhole. A rough estimate suggests at least several hundred thousand…”
“Ah?”
Kote was stunned, “I think we’ve sent less than a hundred warships, right?!”
“Yes, so, these warships probably belong to the civilization in the neighboring star system…”
“This…”
Kote was a bit lost. A civilization capable of preventing so many warships from returning must be at least level-2, but why would they…
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility and excitedly said, “Are you saying that the enemy’s warships can’t use particle black hole collapse?!”
“Exactly, only this explanation can explain why the enemy’s warships suffered such heavy casualties…”
“Besides, our warship detected a large number of man-made defense works outside the third planet in the enemy’s rear….”
