However, these aircraft carriers are no longer aircraft carriers in the traditional sense. They are more like large multi-functional platforms that have been modified.

The capacity of the original carrier-based aircraft hangar was compressed, and most of the manned aircraft were abandoned and replaced with drones with a certain degree of artificial intelligence.

Most of these drones are used to launch suicide attacks, while a few are equipped with electronic warfare and energy warfare equipment, or rescue devices.

Responsible for disrupting the enemy and rescuing the wounded from the wreckage of destroyed spacecraft. The original flight control tower was also castrated of most of its functions, and the space saved was used to accommodate a series of new energy pulse devices.

This is a new equipment developed by the Galactic Alliance in recent years to combat the huge population of Crystal Storm.

The device is divided into two types: stasis-entanglement pulse wave projector and energy neutralization pulse wave projector.

The former can reduce the target's maximum speed, while the latter can neutralize the energy in the target's body.

The range of action of this series of equipment is a huge fan-shaped area spanning hundreds of thousands of kilometers, starting from the aircraft carrier.

In this area, all ships, regardless of friend or foe, will be interfered with by the pulse wave projector.

This disruption has little effect on a single target, but its effect is amplified as the number of enemy units within range increases.

It is particularly effective against Crystal Storm, a tactic that relies on attacking with a large number of small spaceships.

In addition, aircraft carriers also have huge fleet hangars.

All damaged conventional spacecraft on the battlefield can be towed directly into the fleet hangar by drones for emergency repairs after the risk of explosion is eliminated.

If the combat auxiliary ship is the nurse, then the aircraft carrier is the priest.

The former is mainly responsible for healing people, while the latter is responsible for giving various buffs to himself and the opponent.

Due to the above reasons, this plan involves more than 200 aircraft carriers, which will play a significant role in the upcoming battles.

So far, a super fleet consisting of Titans, dreadnoughts, aircraft carriers and a large number of conventional spacecraft has taken shape.

This formation possesses an unimaginable density of firepower, and its scale even exceeds some of the frontal battlefields that Galaxy has entered.

According to the previous plan, this formation would face off against the main force of the Crystal Storm. They would need to withstand the storm's frenzied attacks for at least 24 hours and try their best to compress the enemy's formation within the range of the Dyson beam.

After all, there is no way to move the portal after it is opened, and one can only rely on the huge diffraction range of the Dyson beam to attack.

To ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, 12 planetary fortress ships and 36 accompanying war moons were deployed on the outermost layer of the fleet.

The War Moon is a miniature version of the Planet Fortress spacecraft, which, as the name suggests, is transformed from a large satellite such as the Moon.

Their firepower is much weaker than that of planetary fortress ships, but the cost and construction time are also much shorter.

These round planet-level beings, driven by their own drives, slowly arrived at the designated position, then slowly changed their direction, pointing their muzzles at the pre-marked red area in the center of the field.

This area is defined by the range of influence of the phase space interceptor.

These space interceptors are integrated around 16 storm beacons. Their function is to interfere with the changes in the subspace topology and forcibly drag ships originally traveling in the subspace to designated areas of this universe.

During this process, huge disturbances will be caused to the spacecraft's jump core, causing the spacecraft to be unable to re-enter the jump state for a considerable period of time.

This disruption is also effective against Crystal Storm.

After all, the means of entering the subspace are similar, and the underlying principles are similar.

Once everything is ready, the Daji Plan will officially enter the second phase.

The core task of the second phase is to lure the enemy.

Storm Beacon begins operating.

These huge tower-shaped antennas produce strong interference when they are working, which is strong enough to cause annihilation reactions between particles in nearby space.

This effect eventually manifested itself as flickering arcs of electricity visible to the naked eye around the tower.

A powerful tachyon signal began to echo through the warp, simulating the signal emitted by the stargate network when it was connected, and pointing the connection port to the area where the Crystal Storm assembly point was located.

At the same time, a code embedded in the signal comes into play, a code that arises from an inherent flaw in the crystal's individual form and social structure.

Because the thinking mode of Crystal Storm is similar to that of a hive consciousness, individuals will unconditionally obey the orders of their superiors while having the ability to think independently.

This also gave the Galactic Alliance an opportunity to exploit a loophole.

This secret code carried on the tachyon signal actually fabricated a fictitious individual who theoretically had the highest authority in the crystal's social structure.

Of course, this cannot directly control the social activities of Crystal Storm, but can only send out some obscure hints.

In previous local tests on captured crystals, once the crystal itself became aware of the existence of this ethereal entity, the effect of the code would instantly disappear, and even the vulnerability itself would be patched.

Therefore, there is only one opportunity to use the code on a large scale.

The crystals that read this tachyon signal will spontaneously gather together, and then they will involuntarily move closer to the Blackstone Fortress and eventually fall into the trap.

Bai Yi must seize this opportunity and reduce the vitality of the crystal storm as much as possible.

Although Blackstone Fortress was still under construction, the current situation did not allow it to develop slowly. It had to share the pressure on other fronts within its capabilities.

At the same time, this is also the only way to break the Crystal Storm invasion process on this line of defense.

According to recent Warp detections, Crystal Storms are frequently entering and exiting the Warp near Upper Blackstone Fortress.

They formed a stable large-scale gathering point within the warp environment, and the Galactic Alliance had no way to deal with it.

Alliance ships are powerless in the Warp, and can only fight by luring the enemy into this universe.

The implementation of Daji's plan is imminent. The defenders of Upper Black Stone Fortress must take the initiative to attack and weaken them as much as possible before the accumulation of enemy numbers causes a qualitative change.

Four hours after the tachyon signal was sent, the subspace detected a clear deep-field echo.

The Crystal Storm team began to approach the direction of Upper Blackstone Fortress.

Judging from the current detection results, the enemy's scale is very large, but it does not exceed the theoretical upper limit.

The real battle is about to begin.
