Even if Clemens wants to escape, can he really escape?
Not to mention that his previous advancement had already taken him deep into the jump interference zone. If he wanted to jump, he would have to spend several minutes first.
And even if he can take out this jump interference zone...
There will also be the next larger interference area waiting for him.
Not to mention, the two thousand Zhurong-class battleships of the Federation were already appearing in front of her at this moment!
After all, if a federal warship is in the interference zone, it can still use the jump engine normally even if it does not use the hyperspace engine.
Blocking something...
Very easy.
More than two hundred warships, which were running frantically for their lives and out of formation, were intercepted by two thousand Zhurong-class warships.
What will be the result?
This doesn't require thinking at all.
In just a few minutes, the last queen of the top ghost force had already fallen with full of unwillingness.
Even Clemens ended up like this, but the other queens, who had no idea what nanomechanical life was, would be even worse.
Most of them didn't even have time to escape, and were completely overwhelmed by the sudden outburst of a large number of "wrecks".
And some queens who were lucky enough to escape from the battle circle were all intercepted by the Federation's First Fleet and wiped out.
An hour later.
When the last ghost battleship was destroyed.
The battle that announced the demise of the ghost clan...
The curtain was drawn.
Of course, there may be some lonely ghosts left in various parts of the Large Magellanic Cloud who have not come here to join the war, but these are definitely only a few.
There is no more cloning base, no more battleship factory.
These ghosts who are currently surviving will not have any chance of turning around after all.
After it was determined that all of Sylvie's ghosts had been eliminated, the nanomachines fleet began to assemble and immediately left using the jump.
Jiang Xingchen knew exactly where they were going.
Discovered in the Ravila Starfield...
That pulsar!
Although he knew this, he still sent a squadron to follow him all the way to be safe.
In order to determine whether it finally followed the core instructions, it ran to find the pulsar and self-destructed.
A few days later.
The squadron sent back news, confirming that the nanomachines fleet had headed to the pulsar, but they could no longer track it further.
After all, it is a pulsar. If the fleet is approaching, it will be dangerous.
In response, Jiang Xingchen asked them to send a pulsar around the pulsar, deploy some monitoring equipment in the surrounding airspace, and then let the squadron return.
Although it cannot be conclusively confirmed whether these nano-mechanical life forms were destroyed as planned.
But if something unexpected happens, the monitoring equipment left behind can provide feedback as soon as possible.
At this point, the only two entities in the Large Magellanic Cloud that could threaten the Federation, ghosts and nanomachines, have been basically eliminated.
Next, the Federation can expand crazily here without any worries...
And developed!
------
Year 10 of the new federal calendar.
Time passes.
Two years have passed since Sylvie's battle.
The Milky Way, the first main spiral arm.
Slanto star field.
This place is located in the territory of the Kerry Empire, only 380 light years away.
Originally, there were several third-level civilizations and hundreds of second-level civilizations occupying this place.
Due to its proximity to the Kerry Empire, the Slanto star field is also well-known as a trade center on the entire first main spiral arm.
Many trade routes between second- and third-level civilizations and the Kerry Empire pass through here.
Extremely lively.
However, this situation has become somewhat different since it began more than two years ago.
On the Orion Arm, the notorious Scorpion Star Bandits used some method to get here.
You know, although the Kerry Empire's forces have shrunk back to the first main spiral arm.
But in the Galactic Center Channel, the wormhole connecting the Orion Arm is still guarded.
Free Alliance!
Ever since they took over control of this wormhole entrance from the Kerry Empire, they have stationed 300,000 warships here all year round.
But...
However, they never discovered that the Scorpion Star Bandits passed through here.
So, how did the Scorpion Star Thieves get from the arm to the first main spiral arm?
This question is very interesting.
When the Kerry Empire questioned the Freedom Alliance as to why they let the Scorpion Star Pirates in, they even suspected that the Freedom Alliance deliberately let them in to disturb the stability of the first main spiral arm.
The Freedom Alliance also suspects that the Kerry Empire directed and acted on its own, and is probably looking for trouble and excuses to take action against itself.
Although the Freedom Alliance has enjoyed a prosperous life over the years, they also know that if the Kerry Empire really takes action against them.
Then even if the Freedom Alliance is not destroyed, it will still have to shed several layers of skin.
In order to protect themselves, a large number of third-level civilizations within it began to advocate abandoning the current middle-of-the-road policy and instead form a complete alliance with the Republic of Lane and Filna.
To deal with the threat from the Kerry Empire.
Of course, some people are opposed to this proposal.
The logic of the objection is also very clear.
Once this is done, will the two major civilizations that have no worries after destroying the Kairui Empire cross the river and burn bridges, destroying the Freedom Link to Hongmeng as well?
Not to mention, this may be true, and it is at least 90% likely.
No one can convince anyone.
Even in the end, many civilizations had conflicts because of this conflicting view.
What's more, some civilizations directly mobilize their fleets to fight.
Suddenly, the entire Freedom Alliance fell into a chaotic civil war.
It's also quite weird.
Not long after the turmoil broke out in the Freedom Alliance, the Scorpion Pirate Group's actions became increasingly large.
He even entered the territory of the Kaili Empire and completed several plunders.
This time, Gu Lein couldn't bear it any longer.
You are making trouble outside, so I can just turn a blind eye.
But now you actually come to my house and mess around...
Can this be tolerated?
Immediately, the Minister of Military Affairs, the Minister of Intelligence, and several supreme commanders were summoned to the audience room for discussion.
"Minister of Intelligence, have you figured out the origin of the Scorpion Pirates?"
"Your Majesty, according to our investigation, the Scorpion Pirates come from the Milky Way. They were originally a star pirate force that used the Yutian Galaxy as its home base and specialized in plundering the surrounding second- and third-level civilizations."
Nodding, the Minister of Intelligence reported.
However, upon hearing this report, Guren frowned.
"Is this what I need to know?"
"Who doesn't know by now that the Scorpion Pirates are from the Orion Arm?"
"What I want to know is how they came to the main spiral arm and which civilization they came from!"
Seeing Gu Lein's slightly angry look, cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the Minister of Intelligence.
It’s not that he doesn’t report this aspect of the situation, it’s that he simply can’t report it!
It can be seen from the past two years that this Scorpion pirate group often communicated with the robbed ships to threaten them during the robbery process.
Logically speaking, which civilization it belongs to should have been exposed long ago.
But the problem is that after sorting out a large amount of intelligence, the Minister of Intelligence discovered that the person responsible for contacting the Scorpion Star Thieves every time was of a different race...
The most critical thing is that these races are in the database, but they cannot be...
