The fleet that Liang Fei and Li Weiqi were riding on arrived at a galaxy between Odan and the outer second ring star field.

This galaxy, like other galaxies outside, requires evacuation of all personnel within the galaxy.

However, before evacuation, this galaxy can still play some of its final roles.

Friendly fleets from the neighboring star field would pass by here when evacuating, make temporary replenishments here, and then continue to retreat.

What Liang Fei and Li Weiqi's fleet had to do was to set up an ambush on the friendly fleet's retreat path and block the pursuing mechanical fleet.

Whether in the Empire or the Machine Race, not all fleets can use jump retreat without scruples.

After all, warping is an important tactical ability with a limited number of uses.

Using hyperspace channels to navigate is the main means of travel for space battleships.

This gives people the opportunity to ambush in war.

Liang Fei and his fleet maintained the minimum engine power and only kept the life support system running while remaining within the galaxy.

And in the command room of the fleet flagship.

Liang Fei was beside the captain asking him questions.

"How long?"

The captain respected Liang Fei, a psychic, and said without reservation: "Our own fleet will arrive in about an hour. We will stop here for an hour to replenish supplies."

"We don't need this half of the fleet, so don't worry about this. This is the business of the other half of the fleet. When the time comes, whether they are withdrawn or we come here, they will all withdraw together with the fleet that was originally in the galaxy."

"The Mechanical Fleet behind us is estimated to arrive in another three hours. Our mission is to temporarily block them and delay them for about an hour."

"A lot of people in the galaxy have been evacuated before. This is the last batch. The right to use the defense weapons on the colony space stations in the galaxy has been transferred to us. There shouldn't be any problem."

"I see. Remember to let me know when the time comes."

"There will be a ship-wide broadcast at that time."

Liang Fei nodded, turned and left the command room, returning to his independent dormitory.

Li Wei happened to come back here at this time. Seeing Liang Fei, he said with a slightly complaining tone: "I took a look around. To be honest, this batch of soldiers is not very good. More than 80% of them are new recruits. Their quality is not as high as when I joined the army before."

Liang Fei said helplessly: "During this special period, there are not so many good soldiers. Being able to board the flagship means that these people are the tallest among the short ones. Relax your mind. It doesn't matter if you don't relax or not. Anyway, you are the one who is uncomfortable."

"Hey……"

Liang Fei livened up the atmosphere between the two and returned to the formal state: "The friendly forces will arrive in an hour, and the mechanical pursuers will arrive in about three hours. We will be responsible for dealing with them."

"How many?"

"At least a fleet of three hundred cruisers."

"When the mechanical tribe invaded, they were not just targeting our direction. There were many other places that were also being hunted by the mechanical tribe."

"To be honest, we are quite lucky. After all, the main battleship originally here was transferred to nearby Galo."

"Plus, our combat power is really not good enough. The Mechanical Tribe didn't even send a replacement battleship. We only have some cruisers left."

Liang Fei is still optimistic about the future situation.

However, Li Wei still has a different view: "Even if there are only cruisers left, I can't say whether this is a rescue or a sacrifice. We don't have the strength to do so."

Liang Fei understood why this happened. Ever since his last brush with death, Li Wei would generally avoid dangerous things if possible, and would go ahead with it if he couldn't.

You keep complaining, but you will never fall behind in doing what you should do.

So he comforted her again: "Don't worry, the new ships seem to use new technology. The scientists said that our new ships are much better than the average value of the mechanical ships."

“But I still don’t understand why we should go to the front line if we just come here?”

"Most psychics have to go to the front lines. Our psychics are both the type that lack offense but are more than defensive. It's good to be on a spaceship. The two of us together might not be worth as much as this new ship we're on now."

"Besides, psychics didn't have any identities to disclose before, so no one cared about them. But it's different now."

“I still feel like before…”

"Why……"

Liang Fei waved his hand to interrupt Li Wei's nostalgia: "Let the past be the past. Anyway, things always have good and bad sides."

"But I have a bad feeling."

"I have one too. Anyway, just do what you have to do. Did you bring that thing with you?"

"Yes."

"Then there's nothing to worry about."

"I can't say."

Although Li Wei didn't say anything more now, it was still difficult for him to really not worry.

He walked back and forth in the captain's room anxiously for a long time, and finally chose to close his eyes and meditate, adjust his mental state, and make final preparations.

Not long after.

The friendly fleet has arrived in the galaxy.

The entire fleet was left with just over a hundred battle cruisers, less than five hundred destroyers, and about five hundred escort ships.

And, there are about the same number of personnel transport ships as combat ships.

There was not a single ship in the entire fleet that remained intact. Every ship had more or less structural damage, and it was already very good to be able to make it back.

Of course, this fleet did not take away all the ordinary people. Many other fleets were also trying to evacuate.

In fact, most of the population relies on star gate transportation, and only a small number of people who do not have time to go to the star gate will be taken away in this way.

But having said that, there are still many people who can only escape the fate of being killed by the mechanical race by being transported by the fleet.

And judging from the number of personnel transport ships in the fleet at this time.

The casualties among ordinary people have exceeded one third.

One can imagine how many people died on the road.

After the fleet arrived, the engineering ships that had been prepared in the galaxy immediately swarmed over like bees, carried out emergency repairs on the damaged ships, and quickly used the resources brought out from the colonies in the galaxy to replenish the supplies of these damaged ships.

Liang Fei and his fleet were still hiding in a dark asteroid belt on the ecliptic plane of the galaxy, waiting silently.

Time passes by every second.

Friendly fleets in the galaxy are evacuating one after another.

An hour after the friendly forces completely evacuated.

The fluctuations of the hyperspace channel jump engine appeared again at the edge of the galaxy.

An announcement was immediately made on the flagship spaceship to the entire ship, and the silent fleet immediately became active.

The mechanical fleet appeared from the edge of the galaxy, and after preliminary reconnaissance, it approached the planet where the friendly evacuation fleet had previously replenished supplies.

The number of the Mechanical Clan's fleets is greater than the number of fleets ambushed here, but the gap is not too big.

Moreover, the purpose of the fleet's trip is only to delay time, not to completely destroy the fleet.

The chances of achieving the goal are great.

When the mechanical fleet passed through the asteroid belt within the galaxy, it did not detect this group of fleets hiding in the asteroid belt.

The commander of the fleet did not act in a hurry, but allowed the mechanical fleet to pass directly.

As an ambush hunter, he wanted to find the most appropriate time.

Just as the entire mechanical fleet was about to pass through the asteroid belt, they completely exposed the sides and rear of the fleet.

The hidden fleet was fully activated, inserting from the most vulnerable flanks and rear of the Mechanical Fleet, instantly creating a large number of victories.

Many mechanical warships' shields are not full-width shields. The shields can only be opened in front of the spacecraft or the opening speed is not ideal, resulting in them being fully covered by the firepower of this wave of raids.

For a moment, the Odan fleet was almost unscathed in exchange for nearly one-third of the mechanical fleet's losses.

Completely eliminate the original objective gap in the number of fleets.

There was also a brief cheer in the command room.

But the cheers were soon interrupted by a panicked exclamation: "Command! New fluctuations have been detected at the edge of the galaxy!"

The situation at the edge of the galaxy was immediately displayed on the large screen in the command room.

All I saw was the moment when the transition fluctuations were smoothed out.

Another mechanical fleet appeared here.

The flagship of this fleet is a mechanical mothership.

"The enemy numbers far exceed our expectations! The intelligence is wrong! Change the battle plan! Retreat!"

The commander made a prompt decision.

But at this time, the surprise attack of the Odan fleet had caused the entire fleet to penetrate into the mechanical fleet, which disrupted the formation of the mechanical fleet, but also made the Odan fleet lose its flexibility.

The mechanical clan’s reinforcements arrived instantly, leaving absolutely no chance for them to retreat.

Even at this time, their fleet had entered the range of the mothership which was still at the edge of the galaxy.

And during the period when the most external communication signals were transmitted, it was naturally regarded as the first target by the mother ship.

The spine cannon on the mothership lit up with energy-amplifying light pollution, and a red laser beam was fired out.

Even though the flagship was already performing maneuvers, and even though it took three minutes for light to reach the inside of the galaxy from the edge of the galaxy.

But the beam still hit the flagship's shield accurately.

The shield lasted less than three seconds before almost causing the spacecraft to overload and was forced to shut down.

But this is the longest time that the specially modified flagship can sustain. If it were any other cruiser, it would be directly destroyed the moment it was hit by the laser beam.

After breaking the flagship's shield, the mothership's laser hit the armor with undiminished force.

The surging beam energy instantly melted the armor and directly penetrated the hull structure.

Fortunately, the flagship had a chance to adjust its position after being hit by the beam.

It won't be destroyed directly.

But the entire ship also fell into the dilemma of radiation system overload.

Li Wei, who was in the command room, could no longer sit still the moment the shield was broken.

He stood up and rushed directly towards the direction of the destroyed structure of the flagship. Everyone had changed into protective clothing before the battle began.

He was able to reach the vicinity of the ship structure that was pierced by the mothership without being affected.

However, the passages between the sections leading from the intact area to the ship's breach have been closed by airtight doors.

Li Wei could only stand at the back and direct the spiritual energy fluctuations towards the gap in the hull.

Some snow-white foam appeared along the traces of psychic energy fluctuations and quickly solidified in the vacuum, forming a layer of solid foam on the gap in the hull, completely separating the cosmic environment from the interior of the ship.

Foam that disappears as soon as it is blown is foam, and foam that is strong enough to seal a breach in a battleship is also foam.

In addition, a large amount of pure white foam grew out from the hull, creating a dense layer of foam on the side of the hull.

The second attack from the mechanical mothership also followed.

This time, the red laser beam did not hit the hull, but hit the foam layer created by Li Wei.

The complex structure inside the transparent foam layer directly split the laser beam of the battleship, and after being carefully designed and adjusted by Li Wei, it was shot at the surrounding mechanical fleet.

This created some room for the Odan fleet to maneuver.

The commander immediately seized this fleeting opportunity and ordered the fleet to adjust its posture in an attempt to escape from the gap created by the mother ship itself.

But in the next moment.

The mothership suddenly disappeared at the edge of the galaxy and made a short jump into the galaxy, almost right in front of the Odan fleet.

Together with Odan's raiding Mechanical Fleet, they were caught in the middle.

The mothership's crest gun bow was immediately adjusted, replacing the laser beam with an energy restraint bomb.

At a distance almost touching the mothership's face, three consecutive energy restraint bombs fired by the Spine Peak Cannon were fired directly at the mothership.

The first energy restraint bomb exploded in the foam layer of citizen Li Wei, completely removing the foam layer.

The second and third energy restraint bombs rushed towards the flagship almost unhindered.

Several extremely thick chains suddenly appeared near the ship, wrapping the ship in them.

Liang Fei also rushed to the side opposite the flagship and the mothership.

Although the chains were instantly broken by the subsequent two energy restraint bombs, they still alleviated some of the impact.

However, the next moment, a violent explosion was heard from the direction of the command room.

Even though the main weapon was slightly blocked by the two 4-machine psychics, the cruiser was still too weak to fight against the other weapons possessed by the battleship.

Judging from the busy tone on the communication channel, there should be no one alive in the command room.

There was no chance of survival for either the captain or anyone else.

The command system of the entire spacecraft has been completely paralyzed.

A missile from the mothership hit the hull structure not far in front of the two men, completely destroying the foam filled by Li Wei and the airtight doors on both sides.

Li Wei was thrown out by the air flow when the air inside was sucked out, and then he was pulled back by a chain.

But when Liang Fei pulled the man back, a piece of armor had already been pierced into Li Wei's body.

The gas in the protective suit and the blood in Li Wei's body were leaking out rapidly.

He looked like he was breathing out more than he was breathing in.

Liang Fei shouted at him anxiously: "Where are the things?"

Li Wei vaguely heard the voice coming from the communicator, and reluctantly stretched out his trembling hand and pointed to his waist.

Liang Fei didn't dare to waste time and found a gray-green cocoon-like object in the closed waist bag around his waist.

He immediately crushed the cocoon and stuffed the gray-green juice and the cocoon into Li Wei's arms.

A large amount of gray-green biomass immediately wrapped around the wound on Li Wei's body and penetrated deep into the wound.

At this moment, Liang Fei saw a dazzling light out of the corner of his eye.

He turned his head and looked outside the damaged hull.

Another beam of energy restraint bomb from the mothership was approaching rapidly.

If this energy restraint bomb hits the ship, the ship will be completely destroyed.

Even the means left by An Wuping seemed unable to change the outcome.

Li Wei opened his eyes weakly: "I don't see any hope for us to win."
