Chapter 838: Battle of Kresh VI
The heavens and all worlds.
Depth 60·Astral Realm.
Coordinates: X-4260, Y1250, Z9820.
[Glory Sword Heavy Cruiser] Floats in an almost silent low-energy zone.
This space area is characterized by extremely secretive and difficult to capture by conventional detection methods, but it is also accompanied by the risk of transition instability.
The hull is like a lurking beast, quietly blending into this silent space, with almost no physical phenomenon leaving traces here.
Half a month has passed since the end of the first round of raids.
Of course, because this is a high twisted area of [Ether Ocean], the time count becomes less specific and accurate.
Half a month is for the timeline of this astral realm, but in fact it is less than a day in the present world and the shallow world - in this distorted space, the flow of time is compressed, and the time difference between the outside world and the astral realm makes these numbers almost no longer equal.
In the past half month in the astral realm, time has passed in a completely different way, in sharp contrast to the flow of time in the outside world.
Counting of the ether timeline around Terra is usually done using standard Terra time.
If calculated according to the standard Terra Day time, it has only been a day since the raid on the Kresh Hub from the courtyard.
This also means that within the [Ether Ocean], the transmission of messages is extremely slow, and it can even be said that this inefficient transmission method is almost the "standard configuration" of astral communication.
Half a month ago, Xia Xiu led the son of the courtyard to launch the first raid against Kresh Hub.
And the Gis Foreigner Base Camp [Tunaras] was most likely to learn about the raid from Kresh Hub after half a month.
But due to the distorted time characteristics of this area, it will take at least half a month for the support fleet to arrive from the moment they receive the message.
So, this delay in void navigation and information transmission will make the time management of each task execution complicated and inaccurate.
When commanding, commanders will arrange according to the expected arrival time and the timing of enemy action, but it is very important for flexibility and tolerance for time delays.
In military tactics counting in standard Terra time, commanders often arrange buffer periods in advance, such as delaying the scheduled time by several days or weeks (calculated by standard Terra time) to deal with navigation uncertainty, and these time differences need to be compensated by strategic estimates and fleet adjustments.
On the Terra genealogy forum, when used to ridicule others' information, they will say that the Internet you use is connected to the Ethernet space.
At this moment, inside the cruiser's bridge, Xia Xiuzheng was sitting in front of the podium, and his eyes were on an email signal floating in the air, which was from the shapeshifter Henry Harding.
The arrival of this email means that their initial strategic goals have been completed.
This email is delivered through a special band, bypassing ordinary psychic communication channels to ensure that the message cannot be captured by ordinary detectors.
"Kresh Hub will never let go easily."
Xia Xiu was flipping through the emails while muttering to himself in his heart.
"This is the key node for them to enter the astral realm. Without this leap area, the Gith foreigners will face the dilemma of extending the path several times.
For them, losing Kresh means losing a quick connection to the entire astral realm."
Even if the news from the Gith foreigners' base camp has received the news, the arrival of the support fleet takes time, which also means that the courtyard has enough time to prepare for the next action.
Once the Kresh Hub is seized, it will become a strong fortress of the courtyard in the Astral Realm.
The courtyard must take it before the support arrives, and then turn the Kresh hub into a military fortress of the courtyard, cut off the base of the Gith foreign queen Vlakis, and lay the foundation for the subsequent capture of the ancient city of Gith foreigners [Tunaras].
So Xia Xiu must complete all deployments before their support arrives in order to firmly grasp the dominance of this astral battlefield.
His thoughts kept turning, and at the same time, the golden eyes also began to look at the information collection results of the transformer Henry in the past half month.
——Assassin's Court Report——
Recipient: Hugh Abraham's Crown.
From: Henry Harding—(The Court of the Earth, Assassin, Intelligence Officer)
Date: Astral Twisted Time, No. 534.
Dear His Excellency Hugh Abraham,
After a period of lurking and intelligence collection, I have successfully infiltrated the Kresh Hub and used the seized supply ship to infiltrate the Gith foreign camp.
Because of your previous strategic cover and the [fraudulent virus] you provide from the Central Shelter of Heaven.
This allows us to explain the logical loopholes in the ship's sparse crew as an excuse to "because of an emergency, it is necessary to set sail in an emergency when the number of ships is seriously insufficient".
However, the spiritual aspects of the Gis foreigners are strong enough that the cognitive distortion of [Mima virus] cannot cover up this huge logical loophole for a long time.
So I hope the courtyard will start the conquest against the Kresh Hub before they develop enough resistance.
The following is my detailed information on the Kresh Hub, key information about its racial composition, fleet size, commander system and defense measures.
Kresh Hub is located at the strategic location at the junction of the astral realm and the material plane, and is the military and resource center of the Gith foreign empire.
It not only has a rich [blue crystal veins], but also provides powerful psychic energy support for the Gis foreigners, but also serves as a supply base for the expeditionary fleet to ensure long-lasting combat power.
It is worth noting that [bacillus] is a special etherite vein. It is extremely difficult to damage under conventional physical conditions, and even high temperatures, strong acids or strong radiation cannot affect its structure.
It can perfectly conduct energy, including currents, mental fluctuations, and even some unknown cosmic radiation.
The mass of some [cyanite] samples seems to change with the observer's state, similar to the uncertainty phenomenon of quantum states.
I found that the [Mi Go clan] hidden in the Kresh hub seemed to be extremely dependent on this ore.
The power source of their biological aircraft [Worm Winged Vehicle] is most likely also [Blue crystal], because I found that some of the Gith foreigners' stations have installed such biological aircraft and are often fed with crushed crystal powder.
[Mi Ge tribe]'s stationed base is also set up on the largest crystal vein at the hub, and is highly protected by the Gis foreigners.
I suspect that [Mi Go people] have reached a deep technical binding with the Gis foreigners.
The above are the information I can investigate about [Mi Go tribe].
The next is the racial and social reports on the hub.
At the Kresh Hub, the Gith foreigners occupied the ruling class of the hub, who managed all military operations, resource collection and technological development.
The slaves are mainly responsible for the mining and restoration of mineral veins and are under oppression for a long time.
[Valkaans] were once the indigenous people of this astral world. Like the vast majority of races living in the astral world, they all have extremely high spiritual potential.
Their mental technology has flourished over thousands of years (on the astral time), and unfortunately, their development direction is not inclined toward military applications.
After the invasion of the Gith foreigners, their civilization collapsed rapidly, and many [Varkaans] were enslaved, becoming tools for the Gith foreigners to conquer other interstellar fields.
The descendants of Varkaan are descendants of these survivors. Although their spiritual talents have declined, they still retain their relatively powerful "spiritual resonance" and limited "telepathy".
These descendants are in a human form, with dark blue or crystal-like skin, their faces are sharp and their eyes often shine with green or purple.
The height is generally tall and thin, with slender but strong muscle lines.
The social status of the descendants of Varkaan was extremely low. They were almost completely controlled by the Gith foreigners and became laborers and slaves in the mining area.
The Gith foreigners use their psychic resources to drive mining of mineral veins and other heavy physical labor.
Nevertheless, the descendants of Varkaan did not completely lose their will to resist.
Most of the descendants of Varkaan were forced to work in the blue crystal veins, and their psychic energy was forced to accelerate ore mining, which were handed over to the Gith foreigners for the production of psychic weapons, warships and other military uses.
Their living conditions are very harsh and they lack sufficient rest and food for a long time.
The Gith foreigners ensured that the slaves maintained absolute obedience to them through spiritual interrogation and violent deterrence.
Although living in oppression, the rebellious sentiment of Varkaan's descendants was not wiped out.
Through detailed observations of the descendants of Varkaan, I have confirmed that they have the potential to unite and resist.
Although the Gith foreigners have suppressed them almost without all their ability to resist through oppression and mental control, the inner fire still exists. If guided correctly, the descendants of Varkaan will be our most promising ally in and outside the Kresh hub in the future.
It is recommended that you consider providing them with the necessary support, especially in terms of psychic interference and information penetration.
If we can unite their strength, we will be able to tear a crack in the defense line of the Gith foreigners.
Of course, the premise of all this is based on your attitude towards them and, their attitude towards the courtyard.
Next, allow me to continue to report to you the hub's defensive fleet, orbital defense system and ground garrison.
The fleet deployment of Kresh Hub is huge, consisting of multiple psychic frigates, psychic destroyers, supply ships and support ships.
Zelkas Tares (Captain and Legion Commander) is the commander-in-chief of the Kresh fleet, directly commanding about 32 combat readiness ships, responsible for maintaining the defense and resource delivery of the hub.
The Gith foreign psionic destroyers are the core defense line of these warships, with a number of 12 ships, and the total length of the flagship ship [Kresh] is 1,200 meters.
They are designed to have powerful pivotal turrets and energy barriers that can conduct precise ranged attacks while having sufficient defense against external attacks. The psionic drive systems inside the ships make them have strong maneuverability and stability in the deep astral space.
Finally followed were 19 Gith foreign combat frigates equipped with psionic cannons. They are characterized by strong firepower and strong mobility, and are suitable for multi-faceted combat.
These frigates are mainly used to intercept enemy fleets and suppress enemy ships through precise strikes.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小
The last ship in the fleet is the Red Dragon Air Mothership, a strategic cruiser that can carry 100 red dragons. It is used to project air force and improve the fleet's maneuverable strike capabilities.
The Red Dragon Knights inside the mothership are responsible for air support and patrol, and are composed of 120 knights (the excess knights are reserve personnel). The red dragons riding by each knight give them an unparalleled air advantage.
In addition, there are four supply ships, which are responsible for providing resources and materials to the fleet.
They are responsible for the fleet's continuous combat capabilities, ensure the stability of the supply line, and are able to carry a large amount of repair equipment for repairing damaged warships.
The most special thing is that the Kresh Hub deploys four psychic cruisers, which are not only equipped with psychic jammers, but also can interfere with the enemy's command system through mental suppression devices.
Their mission is mainly to perform tactical interference, which prevents the enemy from coordinating counterattacks through the communication system.
External to the Kresh Hub is surrounded by a series of sophisticated orbital defense systems that play a decisive role in intercepting threats from the stars.
The first are 6 orbital defense platforms distributed over the Kresh Hub.
These platforms are equipped with psionic turrets and automatic laser arrays, enough to deal with any enemy ships trying to approach.
Each platform ensures itself to be protected from external interference and attacks through a powerful psychic barrier. Their psychic barrier can withstand most physical attacks and energy shootings, forming an inbreakable line of defense.
In addition, there is a huge psychic shield surrounding the Kresh hub.
This shield can not only defend against any physical attack from the outside world, but also effectively block the enemy's psionic attacks. In this way, the Gith foreigners ensured that the Kresh Hub maintained an impeccable defense in almost all cases.
The design of these defense systems means that the Kresh Hub has an extremely high success rate when resisting external attacks.
Unless it can effectively destroy its psychic barrier, any external attack will not pose a threat to it.
Finally, there is a report on the ground garrison inside the Kresh Hub. The ground forces currently stationed in the Kresh Hub are roughly divided into two categories:
The first category is 5,000 gis foreign warriors, who are responsible for the collection and mining of mine veins, and also provide necessary tactical support to the gis foreigners.
Most of these soldiers perform tasks through telepathy and mental control, equipped with neat Gith foreigners silver swords and silver armor, which has extremely efficient movements.
The second category is the garrison army specializing in the hub defense line, with a total of about 500 soldiers, including the Psychological Guard and Tactical Team members.
These soldiers are equipped with advanced psychic weapons and are proficient in space suppression tactics. They are always ready to face any sudden battle.
Based on the information currently obtained, the defense system of the Kresh Hub and the ground garrison formed an extremely tight line of defense.
However, I think that if breakthroughs can be made against its psychic barrier systems, especially destroying their [blue crystal veins] and [psychic equipment], they will greatly weaken their defense.
Although the defensive fleet at Kresh Hub is large and well-equipped, it still relies on the continuous supply of psionic resources.
I suggest that we can start from the two perspectives of destroying the dock and anchorage, and gradually weaken its combat power.
After that, I will continue to monitor the internal movements of the Kresh Hub and report more information to you. The following is the core intelligence attachment.

——————————
Xia Xiu stood in front of the bridge window, gently sliding his fingers over the email sent by Henry Harding through a special band. His eyes were quiet, and the content of the email under his eyes gradually formed a clear picture in his mind.
After reading the email, a hint of invisible satisfaction appeared on the corner of the blonde young man's mouth.
With this information, it means that their next actions can be accurately planned according to the specific situation, and the strategically mobilized options are doubled.
And the most important point is that the son of the courtyard has successfully penetrated into the Kresh Hub.
The sons of the courtyard with four extreme individual combat capabilities are placed in the Kresh Hub. Once they launch a beheading operation, they can instantly paralyze the command system of the hub.
You should know that in order to ensure that the son of the courtyard can enter and be placed in the deepest part of the hub, Xia Xiu specially applied for a non-seriously restricted type of containment from the central storage room - an item with abnormal weaponization potential.
When applying for this containment, it is a high-risk item that needs to be approved by the ethics committee - the high-risk here refers to the scope of the impact it can cause.
Of course, there is no need to say much about the relationship between the Fourth Sword Holder of Heaven and the Committee.
At the same time, considering the special background and actual needs of the Ivy War, his application was quickly approved.
Although at some levels, approval is almost an exception so quickly.
The items Xia Xiu received from the shelter were a mirror with group fraud effects, an abnormal item that was once contained in the Kingdom of Heaven, and the containment command level was yellow.
The yellow level marks—"more resources are needed for complete containment removal or containment removal is not reliable abnormalities or anomalies".
The ability of the mirror is very special. Looking at the mirror for more than five minutes can generate a gaze of the gaze called the "man in the mirror".
The abnormal ability is for the individual who is looking at the mirror to form a person in the mirror.
The person in the mirror can establish a collective cognitive error. The person in the mirror can trigger cognitive conflicts among the group. The holder can make people feel confident by letting the person in the mirror speak, and what he says can make people believe that even if it looks full of loopholes and is extremely absurd.
At the same time, once lies appear, they will spread in the community, allowing multiple individuals to accept wrong collective cognition together, and even trigger a wide range of social and psychological phenomena.
Xia Xiu recalled the story behind the item at first.
This mirror was housed in a remote town in Youyang.
At that time, it fell into the hands of a beggar who used the fraud effect in the mirror to successfully dress himself up as a "king" in the town, and the residents of the town naturally believed his lies.
Through the people in the mirror, the people in the entire town are shrouded in this fictional story of royal power, while the beggars do whatever they want in this chaos.
Later, the local abnormal imagination attracted the attention of the burial organs of the Kingdom of Heaven. Soon afterwards, they directly held down the false king, and let him get a few iron fists from the Kingdom of Heaven, and then contained the mirror.
However, the fraudulent ability of this mirror is not unlimited.
The effect of the mirror will be greatly reduced when facing a high-level wizard - this flaw was discovered only after the Kingdom of Heaven was contained.
So, although this mirror can create terrifying social effects within a certain range, it also has its insurmountable restrictions.
After getting the mirror, Xia Xiu handed the mirror to the transformer.
It was precisely through the mirror that the Transformer completed a "strategic fraud" that was not big or small.
But now, the strategic fraud seems to not last long, and more or less people in the Gith foreigners in the Kresh hub have noticed something is wrong.
But it doesn't matter, Xia Xiu didn't plan to delay it for too long.
—After collecting enough information, you can start conquering the Kresh Hub.
