There are all kinds of debris and garbage scattered in the universe. Some are the wreckage of the Airanthil Empire battleship, and some are a strange substance that is constantly decomposing and disappearing.
"General, the wreckage of the destroyed strange ball is disappearing little by little. We tried to recover some of its components and found that except for the magical energy, the rest were some very common substances." Inside the bridge,
The adjutant said to Plenek somewhat depressedly.
Just now, the battleships of the Airanhill Empire destroyed the last strange ball floating along the orbit and won this local war.
However, they did not pay a price. In this battle, three Exploration Level 2 destroyers and two Exploration Level 1 destroyers were sunk by the Elanshir Empire.
In addition, three battleships were injured. If we measure it based on the number of losses, the Airanhill Empire actually suffered some losses.
Of course, victory and defeat in a battle cannot be measured solely by the number of losses, but rather by who has accomplished one's own campaign objectives.
"Send the telegram sent by the other party and some other information back to Alan Siris! Start a radar search to make sure that everything in the surrounding universe is normal!" Plunk's face did not have the joy of victory, but more.
Some solemnity.
After the enemy in front of him was destroyed, he began to decompose and disappear bit by bit, as if he had never been here before.
This made him full of worry, and he even felt that the enemy had not been eliminated, but had found a substitute and escaped.
Without the ability to obtain the remains of the enemy, there is no way to obtain more intelligence information. What worries Plunkeye even more is that he still doesn't know whether all the enemies have been eliminated, or whether the enemies he eliminated were just the opponent's forwards.
force.
Anyway, there were so many things that he needed to consider, and he was even a little confused as to where to start with the report he sent to Alan Siris.
At this moment, he was embarrassed to say that he had wiped out all the enemy forces - although there were hundreds of warships witnessing his victory here, the poor enemy was not able to capture a single screw, which was really disappointing.
"The other party's interference has disappeared, and our radar detection range has been restored. There are no suspicious targets nearby, and the destroyers have dispersed. Everything is normal." The adjutant replied immediately.
"We have encrypted all the intelligence we obtained and sent it back to Alan Siris!" The officer in charge of intelligence coordination also said at this time.
"Search the nearby space to see if there are any survivors! Including the Montedo transport spacecraft that lost contact before... and the Scarecrow and the Iron Spear..." Plunk's instructions continued.
"We have not received a distress signal, including the signal on the black box of the spacecraft... I think they may have been completely destroyed." The adjutant reported with some regret.
Plunkeye nodded, then shook his head: "Since the other party uses our channel and our language...then they are a kind of intelligent life."
"Since they are smart and unwilling to abide by the humanitarianism of war, we don't need to be polite to them." After he finished speaking, he continued to confirm: "Didn't any enemy soldiers be captured?"
"We have also confirmed this. We have detected all the fragments scattered in the universe and there are no signs of life." The adjutant continued to answer.
While they were talking, the hard shell of a huge, thick strange ball that was originally floating outside the porthole broke under the load and turned into three smaller pieces.
Just by looking at the area, you can easily tell that these shells are much smaller than when they were connected together just now.
"Have you obtained contact with the planet Higgs 5?" Plunkeye looked at the officer in charge of communications.
"There is no response from Higgs 5. We have sent out 19 confirmation signals, at least two of which were sent in unencrypted plain code...but there is no response from the surface of the planet." The liaison officer shook his head and said.
"It seems that Higgs 5 has been invaded..." Plunkeye said with some worry: "It is estimated that some cities have been destroyed, and it is very likely that the opponent still has a large number of troops up there!"
The adjutant nodded and agreed with this statement: "It is very possible that the opponent's main force may have landed on Higgs 5, so there were no corpses after the opponent's three strange balls were destroyed by us."
"It's a possibility." Plunkeye was noncommittal, but he replied casually. In his opinion, as long as he didn't destroy three unmanned spaceships, there would definitely be corpses on the other side.
The most reasonable explanation for the absence of corpses is actually that the other party did not have any operators in these three strange balls - almost, which means that he, the general of the Airanhill Empire, lost several battleships and only destroyed three.
It's just an enemy's unmanned warship.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable, and all signs pointed out to him the fact that the other party seemed to be very powerful, much more powerful than the Elanthir Empire had imagined.
"Then, should we send a landing force to enter the atmosphere of Higgs 5 and take a look inside..." an officer suggested.
He had just finished speaking when he was rudely interrupted by a sergeant who hurried over.
The sergeant handed a tablet to Plunkeye and said anxiously: "Sir! The detector shows that the composition of Higgs 5's atmosphere is changing and the oxygen content is decaying..."
After taking the tablet and seeing the fluctuating values on it, Plunk's confirmation asked with some disbelief: "How is it possible? Is there something wrong with the sensor?"
"In fact, it's not just the oxygen content that is declining, but the entire atmosphere is declining! We are also confirming whether there is a fault in the calculation model, but this possibility is very small." The noncommissioned officer looked at the people surrounding him.
The officer swallowed his saliva and said: "In a few minutes, when entering the atmosphere of Higgs 5... you will need to wear a breathing mask!"
"Did the other party...destroy the Tree of Life?" At this time, an officer who realized the key to the problem suddenly asked.
Everyone looked at him, and then everyone's faces began to turn pale. A series of questions seemed to appear in everyone's mind: "These damn strange balls... what are they... what is their purpose?"
