It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

But inside the Enrodjet Alliance, no one showed even the slightest bit of joy.

That's just the opponent's detector!

Everyone is deeply aware of a problem.

Level [-] civilization also has a gap!

……

After this small conflict, there was a "peace" that lasted for several years.

It can be easily seen from the increasing number of warships around the border post, and the size is getting bigger and bigger, that the current peace is nothing but the calm before the storm!

Hume, who was still staying in the border post, looked at the gradually filling empty universe with a complicated look in his eyes.

Battleships, turrets, supply lines...

For the first time in several years, this desolate border area became lively.

but……

Does all this really work?

Although it is a member of the Enrogate Alliance, as a "war correspondent" who was lucky enough to witness the conflict, it still believes from the bottom of its heart that the Enrogate Alliance will never be part of the Pan-Human Federation. opponent!

The faint blue warning lights began to flicker, and dense crests appeared on the tachyon radar.

From the intensity of the crests, it can be seen that the speed of these warships has reached an astonishing 100c!

The gap like a moat is clearly displayed in front of everyone.

"finally come……"

Hume let out a long sigh, picked up the small laser gun that he had prepared long ago, and aimed it at his thinking organ.

After a slight buzzing sound, everything returned to calm.

Chapter 748 Ten Light Years of Defense

Enrodget Union Frontier.

Although the territory of the Enrogate Alliance is not as vast as that of human civilization, it also covers a star field with a radius of [-] light-years in the Enrogate star system.

Although the alliance has absorbed more than three hundred civilizations, their quality is uneven, and most of them are first-level or second-level civilizations that have just left the star system.

The third-level civilization is already the mainstay of the alliance.

And the fourth-level civilization can be called a high-end combat power.

As for the Enrojet civilization itself, needless to say, it is like a pinnacle of Dinghai.

The task of border defense is basically shared by the third-level civilization and the fourth-level civilization.

Of course, the Enrogate civilization also has corresponding border defense forces, but the territory of the alliance is too vast. After the warships of the Enroget civilization are scattered, they can't actually play much defensive role.

Under normal circumstances, these fifth-level civilization warships often play a deterrent role.

For civilizations of the same level, without reinforcements, such a line of defense would be as fragile as an egg shell, breaking at the touch of a finger.

This is also true, for the Enrodjet civilization, the most important thing at present is to determine the offensive position of human civilization.

Problems arise accordingly.

Limited by its own level of technology, the Enrojet Alliance does not know the specific attack route of human civilization at this time—the fleet of human civilization has not yet entered the detection range of the tachyon radar!

As of now, the Enrodjet Alliance's knowledge of human civilization is only those silver-white detectors that have been blown into countless debris.

Naturally, the alliance's defense forces were arranged around the three border outposts where the silver-white detectors were discovered.

In order to ensure the success of the interception, under the order of the leader of the alliance, the alliance stretched the line of defense to ten light-years.

This is not an easy task.

In order to complete this ten-light-year line of defense, the alliance dispatched almost all combat-capable warships and civilizations in the territory.

But even so, the ten-light-year front is still too much for the Enrodjet Alliance.

The defensive power of the line of defense has been weakened a lot.

But this is a helpless way.

According to the alliance council's plan, when the tachyon radar detects the movement of human civilization, the alliance will start to shrink the front line and strengthen the front line's defensive capabilities.

Keeping human civilization out of the border is the combat plan of the Enrodjet Alliance.

what?

Fight back?

Do not make jokes.

In the Enrodjet Alliance, no one dared to think about it.

Can this gap in strength, which is visible to the naked eye, rely on courage and passion to fight back?

……

Engroget star system, inside the command center.

The leader of the alliance stared at the screen in front of him solemnly.

On the screen is a tachyon radar image from the front line.

On the other screen, a map showing the distribution of defense forces on the alliance border.

Looking at the 3D distribution map evenly distributed over ten light-years, it frowned tightly.

human civilization……

Where will it come from?

What should it do if they make a big circle and attack secretly from other directions in the alliance?

Although those border outposts set up every light year can serve as a warning, they can't stop the opponent's fleet!

If the enemy is allowed to go deep into the hinterland of the alliance, then this defensive battle will be difficult to fight...

After all, most of the civilizations in the alliance are "old, weak, sick and disabled" civilizations-in the eyes of the fifth-level civilization, let alone the third-level civilization, even the fourth-level civilization is nothing more than bigger ants.

Just as it was thinking about the corresponding countermeasures in its mind, a slight fluctuation suddenly appeared on the big screen in front of the command center.

As the faint blue warning light began to flicker, countless strong crests appeared in the tachyon radar image!

That is……

The battleship of human civilization!

All kinds of doubts and thoughts in its mind were completely shattered by these strong signals!

It's completely different from what it thinks.

Human civilization has not changed the direction of attack at all!

The huge fleet followed the route of those silver-white detectors, announcing their arrival to the Enrodjet Alliance in an extremely simple and rude way!

After a brief absence, looking at the strong signals that were rapidly approaching the border, it issued an order in an extremely strong tone.

"quick!"

"Shrink the defensive front immediately!"

"Get ready to fight!"

……

ten days later.

Enrodgett outside the Union border.

Accompanied by extremely strong space-time fluctuations, a huge fleet instantly appeared in the deep and dark universe.

The originally empty universe suddenly seemed crowded at this moment.

A part of the small meteorites blocking the front of the fleet silently melted into a ball of powder under the particle accumulation effect brought by the curvature engine, as if to herald something.

At this time, it was 0.1 light-years away from the defense line of the Enrojet Alliance.

The power of the antimatter reactor in the battleship slowly decreased.

With the curvature engine running at low power, the fleet is approaching the destination at a speed of 0.5c—the human fleet equipped with the latest curvature engine has basically eliminated the outdated antimatter engine.

Of course, the nozzle of the antimatter engine has not been cancelled, but the powerful light and gamma rays will no longer be released temporarily.

The reason is also very simple.

The current curvature engine can only eliminate the gravitational field interference of conventional stars.

If you really want to encounter any extreme celestial body, the fleet still has to be driven by the original antimatter engine.

Like superluminal curvature navigation, the state of curvature below the speed of light is also space-time moving, but the spacecraft itself does not move.

Therefore, the battleship and the crew no longer need to consider the load brought by the acceleration, and they don't even feel any fluctuations during the acceleration of the starship!

The mobility of the battleship has also been greatly enhanced.

Although it is impossible to achieve the extreme maneuvering of the sweeper civilization from a static state to a high speed of 0.7c in an instant, the human battleship at this time still realizes some maneuvering methods that ignore the laws of physics.

For example, a high-speed right-angle turn.

The complex factors that determined the maneuverability of warships in the past have gradually become an extremely simple factor-the performance of the curvature engine.

Not hard to foresee.

When the performance of the curvature engine reaches a certain level, sharp corners, instant start and stop... Those maneuvering methods that were difficult to understand at the beginning will all become reality one by one.

In the center of the fleet, [Titan Mothership].

"Commander Bai, the probe has completed its preliminary detection mission."

A crew member reported loudly.

At the same time, an immersive and clear star map appeared in the huge holographic projection ahead.

In the vast universe with dim starlight, a spherical structure glowing red appeared.

It was a spherical defense line with a diameter of ten light years, which happened to block the front of the human fleet.

Different from the defensive front on the ground, the defensive front in the universe is three-dimensional.

Chapter 749 Long Snake Formation

Bai Yixuan raised his hand and lightly clicked on the spherical defense line.

Swish!

The holographic image quickly zoomed in and displayed specific information about the line of defense.

Densely packed red dots appeared in front of him.

It was a warship of different models.

Since the detector was only observing from a distance, he could only observe the surface "structure" of this spherical defense line for a while.

"A preliminary estimate is that there are [-] warships..."

Bai Yixuan sneered: "He really values ​​us."

"This is taking out the wealth of the entire alliance!"

With that said, he turned to look at the holographic image on one side: "Zijie, do you have any ideas?"

In the picture, Zhao Zijie frowned slightly: "A defense line composed of [-] warships..."

"Our expeditionary fleet only has [-] warships, and the difference in strength is ten times. This is a tough nut to crack."

"Especially because the opponent has the advantage of playing at home, this battle is not easy!"

Bai Yixuan nodded solemnly: "It's really not easy to fight."

"Perhaps we can choose to detour?"

"No." Zhao Zijie interrupted Bai Yixuan's words, "We need an absolute victory to conquer this alliance."

"This is Professor Lu's request."

"The People's Federation needs these low-level civilizations to enrich the Pan-Human Federation."

Hearing this, Bai Yixuan frowned even deeper: "In this way, we can only fight head-on..."
