In space, the void worms are moving at sub-light speed, and each three long void worms are hugging each other.

They twisted like a pretzel, and with the help of the backward thrust and the spiral effect, they were able to maintain high-speed movement.

Now the effect of their acceleration with the help of the planet's gravity has gradually faded, and they have temporarily returned to their normal speed.

Although it is still very fast, it is only by relying on inertia and maintaining a certain direction that it can achieve such speed.

After launching all the missiles and space torpedoes, the fleet's torpedo ships monitored the void worms from a distance, providing signal guidance to the missiles and space torpedoes.

Ordinary weapons and equipment such as missiles and space torpedoes are very effective on planets, but their effects are much less in the universe.

However, the explosive power of some neutron torpedoes and proton torpedoes is still quite terrifying.

Moreover, these weapons all have tracking effects. If they are released in large quantities, many of them can still hit the enemy due to the tracking effect.

It is even easier to use when dealing with fixed targets. You just need to set the track.

Although the void worms are moving, in the eyes of humans, they are no different from fixed ones, because these guys keep moving at high speed in one direction.

It is easy to use mathematics to calculate the appropriate coordinates as the hit location.

All the ships except the torpedo ship are now behind the void worms.

Once the battle begins, these guys can use the acceleration of inertia to catch up with frigates and destroyers faster in front of the void worms.

But the ship is behind the void worm, which is completely different. If they want to chase the ship, they can only use the void worm's own speed, and they can only turn back.

In space, the void worms were completely unaware of the approaching danger.

It was not until the space torpedoes and space missiles were very close that the void worms reacted.

They may have thought these were meteorites about to hit them from space.

The void worms began to counterattack these space torpedoes. Their huge heads and mouthparts began to accumulate power. The next moment, a light green ball of energy spewed out from their mouthparts.

The energy ball was so fast that it instantly hit an incoming space torpedo.

“Boom!!”

The space torpedo that was hit was detonated instantly, releasing huge amounts of energy.

This is an unlucky space torpedo that was hit by a void worm.

But there are more space torpedoes and missiles with irregular trajectories, flying towards the void worms at a faster speed.

The void worms kept spitting out air, but most of them were dodged by the space torpedoes. However, as the distance between the two sides got closer, more and more torpedoes were destroyed.

But compared to human ships, these void worms obviously do not have many good ways to deal with these space torpedoes.

The number of space torpedoes destroyed was less than one-tenth of those launched by Li Xin and his team.

Finally, the first space torpedo hit the void worm.

“Boom boom boom!”

The explosion of a proton torpedo is extremely powerful, with huge amounts of energy erupting within a small area.

The three void bugs that were hit were blown away and screamed loudly. Although there was no air to transmit sound in space, from their current appearance, it could be seen that the blow was indeed very painful.

More and more space torpedoes hit the void worms, and explosion lights and energy flows appeared one after another.

Voidworms can survive in the universe, living and nesting near black holes. They are usually exposed to cosmic rays and absorb the energy flow around stars as their food.

All of this has allowed their biomass skin to evolve, and the toughness of this skin is in no way inferior to the alloy armor used by human ships.

In some aspects, it may even have higher defense capabilities than human ship armor, such as in defending against energy attacks.

However, this time the explosion of the space torpedo was not so easy to defend against, and the void worms were blown all over their bodies.

Some were even blown apart, their huge bodies twisting constantly in the void, obviously due to pain.

Lower-level creatures cannot feel pain. The fact that they can perceive pain means that they are also higher-level creatures.

Some void worms that were hugging each other with three heads were forced to separate by the explosion. This time, the attack of all the space torpedoes from the six torpedo ships made every void worm be attacked, which was like rain and dew being evenly distributed.

Moreover, seven or eight unlucky void worms suffered more from the explosion, their bodies were blown apart, or even killed.

In the flagship headquarters at the rear, Li Xin watched this scene and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "The torpedo ship achieved very good results this time!"

Weng Hua, who was standing by, also said, "All in all, this is the best result achieved by the torpedo boats. In the previous battles, the torpedo boats were not able to participate in many battles."

Li Xin nodded, then gave an order, saying, "Now that the torpedo ship's attack has ended, the rest of the battle is left to us!"

"Ships are attacking from a distance. Show these void bugs some color!"

"Yes! Sir!"

Orders were issued layer by layer, and each ship was ready to open fire.

There are currently twenty frigates on the battlefield, ten of which are basic-level frigates provided by the Seventh Wave.

The other ten are the Fang-class frigates that Li Xin built here himself.

There are eight destroyers, three of which are the original Obedience-class destroyers, also given by the Seventh Wave.

The other five are Striker-class destroyers.

This type of battleship was built by Li Xin in the space dock in the Walker galaxy.

Currently, these ships have also been modified and part of their weapon systems have been replaced.

The Void Worms have two ways of attacking: one is to spit energy to attack, and the other is to stick close to the ship and tear it apart with its claws.

The skin of the void worm has a good effect on energy attacks, so most of the main weapons of the ships have now been replaced with kinetic weapons.

One advantage of kinetic weapons is that they use ammunition and generally have a longer range.

This may be different from the conventional understanding. For example, weapons such as laser weapons and plasma rays have an effective attack distance that is closer because the longer range will cause the energy flow to escape.

However, energy weapons have a fast flying speed and basically have a higher hit rate. For example, for laser weapons, firing basically means hitting the target.

Kinetic weapons, such as rail guns, mass accelerator guns, etc., will fire projectiles that fly faster and faster due to the effect of acceleration.

But they are certainly not as fast as energy cannons such as lasers, but they do not have the risk of their power decreasing as they fly farther, so their range is longer.
