Chapter 1844 Levik’s War to Destroy the Country (4)
1845. Levik’s War to Destroy the Country (4)
The two fleets sent out sent a message back the next day , saying they discovered a suspected enemy ship. But then, they were like a mud cow drowning in the sea, with no response at all. Such a result made the Xilu Empire even more panicked.
In the past few days, the great Siritut asked for news about the two fleets almost every hour, but the news he got every time was - no news.
Now, 10 days have passed since the Ninth Fleet was lost and destroyed. During this period, all the troops of the Xilu Empire were almost in a state of mental collapse.
They went from being nervous at the beginning, to high morale, to shouting and fighting, then gradually fell silent while waiting endlessly, then became uneasy, and now, they are full of fear.
They no longer know how long they have to wait, nor do they know what they are about to face. All they knew was that they had encountered an invasion, and it was an extremely terrifying invasion.
Rumors about the God of Rot began to spread gradually from the top of the Xilu Empire. More and more people began to know about the existence of the God of Rot. God destroyed three fleets of the Xilu Empire one after another! And not even one of these three fleets came back to report!
The panic of doomsday began to spread in the Xilu Empire, and became more and more intense. Almost everyone began to pray to the Heavenly Saint at home, hoping that the power of the gods could help them resist the attack of the corrupt god.
However, all is in vain.
Nothing happened, but a lot of things seemed to have happened...
Such emotions were even more serious among the troops of the Xilu Empire. The long period of alert made them physically and mentally exhausted, and later even a star appeared. Comet even caused the fleet to dispatch urgently.
Things cannot continue like this.
The ruler of the Xilu Empire, the great Siritut, convened many meetings with the highest levels of the empire to discuss whether to lift the alert and relax the tight strings of the entire empire.
However, no matter how they discussed it, there was no way to get around this fact - the three fleets before and after were missing, so you can't just pretend that nothing happened, right?
There must be an explanation for who destroyed these three fleets, right?
And even from the perspective of the empire's top brass, how can the alert be lifted without even understanding where the threat comes from?
Amid the endless quarrel, another day passed.
Finally, the great Siritut issued an order and agreed to let the army rest in batches and no longer be on first-level alert. Just keep at least two-thirds of the soldiers on duty at all times.
However, while they were discussing, a red-skinned Xilu officer rushed in angrily, lowered his head like a bull and ran directly into the emperor's meeting hall, shouting loudly: " Unknown hyperspace fluctuation detected! We are invaded!"
"What? It's finally here!!" The great Siritut jumped up from the throne almost immediately and said loudly, "I have been waiting for them for a long time!"
"Holy God! The invaders finally appeared. Yes!" The golden bishop also bowed to the sky.
At this time, only General Lepic was relatively calm. He asked: "What is the level of hyperspace fluctuations? Can we judge the size of the opponent?"
"Although the fluctuations cause great interference, Our supercomputer still came to the conclusion based on the very vague data - the size of the opponent is very large! At least it can only cause a fluctuation in a fleet!" the officer said.
"If this is the case, then attack immediately! No matter who the opponent is, I will blow them to pieces!!" Lepicus shouted angrily, turned around and walked out.
"Wait a moment, General!" The officer quickly stopped him, "General...but the fluctuation we detected is on Planet No. 5!"
Lepix stopped then, turned around and asked: "Planet No. 5 ? What's going on? "
Planet No. 5 is equivalent to the edge of the Siscat Galaxy.
The Siscat galaxy is a galaxy with six planets, and Levik's planet is the second planet close to the star in the galaxy. The average distance from here to Planet No. 5 is 550 million kilometers! Equivalent to almost 30 light minutes! "If it was an intruder, why did it come so far?" Lepic finally stopped, confused.
But no one present could give him an answer.
So General Lepuix shouted loudly: "No matter so much! Let all fleets prepare for battle! The enemy has arrived!"
"General, our fleet has been in the past twelve days All the time is spent preparing for battle,” the officer spat.
Dare to complain like this in front of General Lepuix, not only because this officer is also of the red people's caste, but also because those soldiers have complained about this continuous vigilance.
Seeing General Lepic rushing out, the great Siritut and others in the conference room looked at each other, then swarmed away, all running towards the command center.
They also want to know the height of this existence that quietly destroyed three of their fleets.
But when dozens of them rushed into the command center, they saw General Lepic standing in a daze in front of the holographic star map.
"Where are the enemies?"
"Where are the intruders?" everyone is asking.
But General Lepuix just said slowly: "The hyperspace fluctuations just erupted and have now disappeared. This means that the opponent has escaped from hyperspace and is now in our Siscat galaxy. But The other party is 30 light minutes away, and it takes an hour for our scanning signals to go back and forth.”
"One hour!" The great Siritut almost lost his composure. He roared loudly, "Do we have to wait another hour to see who they are since the enemies are here? Wait a minute! Why do we have to wait!! "
General Lepiux arched his neck and said: "This enemy is really weird. No matter what their purpose is, choosing the landing point of the hyperspace jump near Planet 5 is a completely useless enemy. Meaningful choice. I really don’t know why.”
He thought for a while and said: “Let all the fleets gather in the direction of Planet 5, and the other party also has close-range defense guns and orbital defense weapons! Maybe you want to use a mass accelerator to attack from a long distance!"
This is also one of the possibilities. Because in the cosmic environment, the theoretical range of live ammunition weapons is unlimited. Therefore, if the opponent continuously uses mass accelerators to launch cannonballs from an extremely long distance, it is indeed possible.
Of course, at such a distance, our own defense fleet and orbital defense system have enough time to detect and lock the opponent's incoming artillery shells, and then intercept them easily.
But as soon as his instructions came out, a light suddenly flashed!
Then there was a faint sound of thunder from the horizon! Soon, the communication came, and someone said loudly: "General! Our planet is being bombed! Someone is attacking us!!"
"Who is the other party? How did it attack?!" General Lepicux shouted loudly said.
"Light...we only saw three beams of light falling from the sky! And then...then Sirokas Mountain disappeared!" The voice over there was filled with fear.
"This...what are they using to attack us?" The great Siritut was completely confused.
However, another ten minutes later, the communication that the planet was under attack came again!
