The long, persistent wail of sirens echoed throughout every starship in the human fleet!
In just ten minutes, everyone had crawled into their own deep-sea cabin.
The human fleet has now truly entered a state of war!
...
Two hours later.
To Lü Yongchang's surprise.
The enemy civilization's starships did not launch an immediate attack.
Instead, they relied on their speed and numerical advantage to completely surround the entire human fleet.
Lu Yongchang frowned as he looked at the star map in the holographic projection and asked, "Zijie, is it possible to break through from a single point?"
Zhao Zijie, standing to the side, shook his head slowly with a hint of worry in his eyes and responded using his brainwave reading device.
'The enemy starships are far more maneuverable than ours.'
'I've already tried the method of breaking through the surface by focusing on a single point.'
'They don't fight us at all; they just retreat whenever we advance.'
'And so, the enemy remained outside our effective firing range.'
"A dispersed formation charge?" Lü Yongchang frowned. "According to active reconnaissance, the enemy doesn't have many starships left."
"No way!" Zhao Zijie rejected Lü Yongchang's proposal outright.
'That's too dangerous!'
"We're currently surrounded by the enemy. Once our defensive formation is broken up, our situation will only worsen!"
After a moment's thought, Lü Yongchang realized that this plan carried a great risk.
He shook his head helplessly: "They've surrounded us from a great distance, I really don't know what they're after..."
Are they trying to slowly boil us like a frog in water, hoping we'll surrender?
Upon hearing Lü Yongchang's exclamation, Zhao Zijie was momentarily stunned.
His breathing quickened slightly as he reached out and magnified the holographic projection in front of him: 'Zero, model the enemy starship formation!'
Zero immediately carried out Zhao Zijie's order.
Almost simultaneously, a model formed by bright white dots of light appeared before him.
A spherical object with an uneven surface that has not yet taken shape.
With just one glance, Zhao Zijie's expression changed drastically!
'Laser array!'
'They want to use a laser array to burn us alive inside their encirclement!!'
Lu Yongchang was slightly taken aback, but then he understood what Zhao Zijie meant.
He quickly reached out and swiped his hand through the air, and a holographic model made up of bright white dots appeared before his eyes.
Rows and columns of light points are arranged in a staggered pattern, forming an uneven, spherical shape.
"Zero, conduct the simulation." Lü Yongchang's face was extremely gloomy.
As soon as the words were spoken, a blinding beam of light flashed inside the spherical object!
As the enemy starship moved, these laser beams also began to move!
Looking at the spherical net that had transformed into a laser meat grinder, Lü Yongchang shuddered slightly.
Attention all units!
Prepare a giant smoke grenade immediately!
Zhao Zijie's broadcast to the entire fleet appeared on the holographic projection ahead: 'Repeat! Prepare giant smoke grenades immediately!'
'The more the better!'
'In the event of a laser weapon attack, immediately launch!'
The broadcast had barely finished when a blinding high-energy laser beam shone down on the Earth!
No, it's not just Earth!
Almost every Golden Crow battleship was attacked by high-energy laser beams to varying degrees!
The alarm then went off!
Without any hesitation, Zero quickly activated its emergency plan.
Under the influence of the vectoring nozzles, all the starships began to slowly "spin".
The laser beam swept across the surface of the starship's armor, leaving a long trail.
Even so, several Golden Crow battleships that were simultaneously targeted by multiple laser beams were still blown to pieces!
With almost no reaction time, the moment the starship began to "spin," the enemy starship also began to move in a regular pattern.
The sustained laser beam instantly transformed into a moving laser fence!
The laser fence can move up and down, left and right, or forward and backward!
The human starships inside the encirclement were like pieces of meat in a meat grinder, being swept back and forth by laser beams!
Armor damage: 15%
Bright red words jumped out in front of Lü Yongchang!
'Smoke grenade!'
'Launch the giant smoke grenade!'
Zhao Zijie gave the order!
The cannons on the sides of every Golden Crow battleship suddenly opened!
The cannons were not aimed at the enemy starship.
Instead, they targeted their own side!
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Under the power of the nuclear bomb, the yellowish dust instantly dispersed and drifted aimlessly in outer space!
In just over ten seconds, the human fleet disappeared into the thick dust.
The laser's power was greatly reduced, and its lethality against starships was also significantly diminished.
Seemingly realizing that the killing effect was not significant enough, the laser beam array slowly went out after about ten seconds.
'All starships, shut down active detection equipment!'
Zhao Zijie continued issuing orders: 'Keep firing the smoke grenades!'
'First, third, and fifth squads, break out towards the target location!'
As he spoke, Zhao Zijie waved his fingers in the deep-sea liquid, sending information about the breakout location to squads one, three, and five.
"Second, fourth, and sixth squads, break out in the opposite direction!"
"While we're still within the smoke grenade's range, let's hurry and break out!"
...
The Grey flagship has yet to appear.
As the encirclement gradually took shape, a cruel smile appeared on the commander's face.
