The first thing the coalition discovered was a small Covenant reconnaissance fleet.
Although the Covenant's prophets were useless, they were not reckless. Although they had received Nurgle's blessing, they were not confident enough to wipe out the heretic fleet in one fell swoop.
The huge ark ship made them dare not take it lightly.
This small reconnaissance force was led by the Ghost-faced Beasts. The destruction of Opasto made the Ghost-faced Beasts very angry, so this time the Ghost-faced Beasts were extremely concerned about attacking the coalition forces.
Zheng Gan and Tassadar were responsible for the overall command of the battle, and they both had the same opinion on this reconnaissance fleet.
Direct annihilation.
There's no saying that if you move, the enemy will find your weakness. With our two armies facing each other, how can I let you jump around in front of me?
An unexpected ray hit the reconnaissance fleet directly from a long distance.
After directly penetrating a ship's hull, the rays retained their momentum and continued to penetrate all objects in one direction before disappearing into the universe.
Then another ten launch lines directly destroyed all the hundreds of warships.
The whole process lasted only a few minutes before the Covenant's reconnaissance fleet was destroyed.
However, neither the Covenant nor the Alliance took this result seriously.
The Star Alliance knew that the Alliance was not a pushover, and the Alliance also knew that the Star Alliance was not a weakling. This time, they could only be considered to have taken advantage of the defenders.
As expected, after the first batch of exploratory teams failed to work, the Covenant's large force marched to the front line in a mighty force.
There was no trash talk. For the Covenant, these heretics didn't even have a chance to convert to their great and benevolent father. All that was left for them was destruction.
But for the coalition forces, this battle affects more than just one universe.
If Nurgle really comes, no universe behind them will be able to escape!
The asteroid artillery first opened fire at the Covenant fleet, followed by a steady stream of water droplets that moved through the universe, looking for opportunities and changing the properties of the surrounding space.
Looking at the five super aircraft carriers of the Star Alliance attacking from five directions, Zheng Gan also looked solemn.
The Alliance started too late, and even after integrating forces from multiple universes, there is still a big gap compared to the Covenant.
Zheng Gan had also thought about transferring the Wandering Earth from the interstellar universe to fight a positional war.
But the Wandering Earth is not just a planetary fortress, it also has hundreds of millions of Earth soldiers living on it. Before knowing the specific impact of Nurgle, if it is transferred here and is hacked, they will lose everything.
And now The Wandering Earth is fighting with UED. If the situation really turns around, Zheng Gan has no troops to fill the gap.
Fortunately, the defense line arranged in advance made up for some of the numerical gap.
The gap between the super aircraft carrier and the Ark ship also forced the superior forces of the other two routes to be tilted to other positions.
After the fleets of both sides engaged in battle, the gap between the fleets quickly became apparent.
The Justice Fleet, the ace of the Covenant, and the Golden Fleet, the ace of the Alliance, demonstrated a powerful strength far exceeding that of other fleets.
Led by the Ark-ship Pride of Otalis, it is the only powerful fleet in the coalition that can not only defend but also launch counterattacks.
Within the Titan's exaggerated ballistic range, each beam can take away a large number of Covenant warships.
Under the fleet attack, there are more ordinary ocean-like ship-borne drones.
The number of drones engaged in space warfare between the two sides even reached millions.
With the Flood and the Zerg's space cannon fodder, the empty starry sky even seems so crowded.
Beneath the hail of bullets came even more violent attacks, including rail guns, ion cannons, antimatter bombs, energy weapons, and psychic weapons.
Countless means of attack were used in this battle.
Both sides were relatively restrained in the initial confrontation, but they also had a rough idea of each other's strength.
The Halo human fleet on the coalition side was the weakest link in combat effectiveness, so the Covenant immediately launched a key breakthrough plan.
Similarly, Zheng Gan also saw the Star Alliance's plan and immediately mobilized the Memory of Nessin hidden in the dark to launch a surprise attack on the Star Alliance fleet.
When the Covenant fleet, with its large number of troops, was carrying out targeted bombing on the Halo human fleet, they had no idea that Zheng Gan had a trick up his sleeve in the void.
The appearance of the second Ark ship directly disrupted their deployment. Under the ambush, the Covenant could only hastily abandon the fleet wreckage filling the space and forcibly break through the blockade of the Memory of Nesin and return to the Covenant position.
This action also directly angered the always conceited Covenant prophets. With the joint decision of the three prophets, the space fortress, the Dreadnought officially joined the battlefield!
This giant battleship, hundreds of kilometers long, is worthy of its name as a fortress. As soon as it joined the battlefield, it demonstrated its incoherent dominance.
Stronger firepower and more powerful kinetic energy made the coalition's front line precarious.
Until it was intercepted by a fleet.
The two largest Ark ships in the coalition blocked the path of the Dreadnought.
The two Ark ships have indeed posed a threat to the Dreadnought, and there is also a huge rotating ring on top.
The Covenant is no stranger to this ring, as Opasto was directly bombed into a mining area by it.
Although this huge battleship did not display any other functions except the main gun, the huge destructive power of one shot hitting a star still forced the prophets driving the Dreadnought to think carefully.
In desperation, the Star Alliance had to withdraw several nearby fleets and abandon their advance to return to defend.
As a result, the coalition forces turned the multi-front advance into a group battle.
It stands to reason that group combat is disadvantageous when there is a disparity in troop strength, but this is obviously not the general case.
Looking at the Covenant fleets that began to gather one after another, the meteorite planets that had been floating in space as artillery positions suddenly moved!
Although most of them were damaged in previous battles, it still does not affect the subsequent plans.
These meteorites began to move and formed a small meteorite belt directly at the front line where the two armies were confronting each other.
Seeing this interception method in the group, the senior leaders of the Star Alliance were also delighted.
This kind of asteroid belt is indeed troublesome for ordinary civilizations, but what use can it be in the face of the advance of the Covenant's forces?
Although they were very dismissive, the Covenant still checked this asteroid belt to prevent them from suddenly exploding.
The final result is that these meteorites, apart from blocking exploration, cannot have a greater impact on the Covenant fleet.
After confirming that there was no problem, the fleet led by the Dreadnought began to launch a general attack on the Allied positions!
