Apertures sparkle among the stars, and ion beams cross each other.
It has been two days since the Autophagic Stars entered combat mode.
All battleships have only now found a stable fighting method, and have begun to fight back and forth with the Star Eater.
And not far away, thousands of kilometers away, are the remains of battleships that were damaged in the battle during this period.
Their fragments are floating in space, illustrating the tragic battles before.
"The first and second echelons quickly go to the xxxx coordinates and intercept the plasma ball that the Star Eater is about to launch!"
"The energy tentacles are waving, please stay out of the way!"
"The seventh and eighth echelons take advantage of the moment to launch an attack. The Star Eater below has no time to worry about it for the time being."
The Ottoman Empire fleet now has more than 300 warships left. They surround the Star Eater, and the 20-kilometer array continuously fires plasma cannons, as densely as a heavy rain.
This is the Daxia fleet.
There are 21 Kestrels left. The disintegration cannon they fired directly caused a piece of the Star Eater's body to be missing. A large amount of energy blocks dispersed in the starry sky, shining with a strange light.
Kingfisher and Turtledove will launch missiles or laser attacks from time to time while under cover, further weakening the Star Eater's energy.
Around the Star Eater, attacks from all directions continued, causing its body to constantly flip and a large number of plasma balls to emerge and blast towards the battleship.
Facing the violent and unreasonable attacks, the warships can dodge whenever they can. If they can't, they will use missiles to detonate energy or resist forcefully.
If it really doesn't work, we have to rely on destroyers or cruisers to withstand the attack, and then die in the vast star space.
The fighting continued, and it was another five days of difficult conquest.
Whether it is the Daxia fleet or the Ottoman fleet, the overall strength has dropped a lot due to the attrition of battleships.
The number of missiles in the Daxia fleet has almost reached its bottom. Facing the Star Eater's attack, it has to move accurately and resist with the ship's hull.
Of course, Star Eater isn't much better.
The body that was originally two thousand kilometers has now shrunk to more than five hundred kilometers, and it seems that it will not last much longer.
"Hold on, victory is in sight!" Daxia's fleet commander encouraged in the communication.
"Huh...I am going to take ten Kestrels to cut off the energy tentacles of the Star Eater, and ask for permission!"
Seeing that the Star Eaters have entered a state of fatigue, some commanders want to speed up the pace of elimination.
"Okay, I approve!"
"receive."
On the detailed map of the galaxy, the surface of the Star Eater's body is full of jagged wounds, and white light can be seen spilling from the inside.
From a central perspective, Daxia's Kestrel battleship is sailing towards both sides of the energy tentacles extended by the Star Eater, flanked by kingfishers and turtle doves who are following the cover.
The Ottoman fleet bombarded the Star Eater's head with plasma cannons at close range, greatly attracting the Star Eater's hatred.
"I guess it's almost done."
Within the Ottoman Empire, Osman and Chu Hua were meeting and communicating. In front of them were real-time images of the battle.
Chu Hua nodded and sighed: "What a difficult battle..."
Osman chuckled, looked at the number of remaining warships in his fleet, and agreed: "Indeed, it can be regarded as the most difficult battle in my career."
"It would be better to say that this kind of Leviathan-level space creature is too strange. We scientific researchers can't figure out why it exists like this."
"Haha, that's what Brother Chu said. We still don't know enough about the universe."
As the two talked, the battle with the Star Eater also entered the next stage.
The two teams of Kestrel battleships had just blasted off a few energy tentacles when the Star Eaters entered a violent state.
It can be clearly seen that the core of Star Eater suddenly lit up with a ray of light.
Huge energy comes out from the inside, and the energy spreads out like a coil.
All fleets have been prepared for this. They have experienced attacks like this many times.
"It's the range impact approach again."
"Everyone gathers together, the third echelon's defensive capabilities should be okay, right? Get in front."
A huge ball of light exploded, and a group of fleets in front helped the warships behind to withstand most of the energy of the attack.
Just when everyone was preparing to attack again.
The remaining energy tentacles of the Star Eater closed in and then suddenly unfolded.
It broke out directly from the encirclement of the remaining fleet, and its speed was so fast that no one could react.
"What!?"
The fleet commanders did not expect that Star Eater would still pull this trick.
It saw something was wrong and was ready to run away!
The Star Eater sailed towards the edge of the galaxy, with the remaining battleships chasing after it.
It has to be said that the Star Eater's sailing speed is really fast. Except for destroyers and ordinary cruisers, it is basically impossible to catch up with it.
"Oh no, don't let it enter the hyperspace channel! Otherwise we won't be able to catch up with it at all."
"This is so speechless. He actually knows how to run away if he can't fight. I don't know whether to call him smart or what."
"Grandma, why can you run so fast despite being so big?"
"All warships activate their hyperdrive engines quickly, and they must be there before they reach the galaxy's gravity well."
...
A series of orders were issued in the combat communication, and the remaining destroyers followed closely behind the Star Eater. From time to time, they were hit by the plasma spheres projected by the Star Eater, and were blown up on the spot.
Star Eater is definitely intelligent, and not bad at all.
It took advantage of the large battleship to enter super-light speed and immediately turned around and headed towards another hyperspace channel.
And in that direction is the seat of the Ottoman Empire.
"Damn it!" Osman frowned as he looked at this picture.
"Such space creatures are really difficult to deal with!"
Chu Hua was surprised for a moment when he saw the Star Eater running away. This Star Eater actually knew how to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
"Now we're in trouble..."
In the end, it was exactly what Chu Hua thought.
The Star Eater prepared to enter the hyperspace channel very quickly. Before the fleet behind it could pursue it, it had already slipped into the channel.
Although the destroyer followed behind, it was still a step slower.
Unfortunately, the destroyer's attack range is still a bit small.
Chu Hua and Osman were silent.
The fleet commanders who arrived later also sighed helplessly.
However, now is not the time to sigh, we must quickly pursue the Star Eater, otherwise we will be in big trouble when it enters the empire.
A few minutes later.
The fleets of the Daxia Empire and the Ottoman Empire entered the hyperspace channel and reached the rear star system.
At this time, Star Eater had arrived at the entrance to another hyperspace channel.
There was another burst of space fluctuations, and it disappeared among the galaxies.
Ottoman urgently mobilized the guard fleet to intercept the Star Eater, but due to the number issue, it was unable to pose a threat to the Star Eater.
Ten minutes later.
The Star Eater officially entered the Ottoman Empire.
The star base was directly detonated from the inside and exploded into fragments all over the sky.
At this time, the fleets of both sides are still beyond the three jumping points behind...
