It took more than ten minutes to check all the equipment repeatedly to confirm that there were no problems, and then scanned the unknown life that was approaching again.
But this result...
Still nothing has changed.
Even during this period of time, this creature has covered a distance of nearly two light-years, and it will arrive at the fleet in just over 12 minutes.
"Commander, what should we do, retreat?"
"No, we don't know who the other party is or what its purpose is. How can we withdraw?"
After glaring at his adjutant, the commander shouted loudly.
After all, this is the job of guarding the fleet, but as a result, you don’t even know what the enemy is, and you are taken to the ground to run away without even meeting him...
Will it be better after I go back?
I'm afraid he might be killed directly. After all, this is considered a deserter, right?
"Send the current situation and all the data we have detected so far to our headquarters, and request nearby fleets to come for support!"
After pondering for a moment, the commander still chose this method, which in his opinion was safer.
During this process, time continued to pass minute by minute, and the other party continued to approach the fleet at a speed that was simply incomprehensible.
Finally, twelve minutes later, as the distance was close enough for observation, everyone on the bridge finally saw each other's true appearance for the first time.
hiss......
What the hell is this?
It simply cannot be described by the existing creatures in the universe.
It's basically just a huge eye, plus countless tentacles, which is both scary and disgusting.
Even through the screen, you can still feel the trembling that comes from your heart but for no apparent reason, just like a lower-level creature facing a higher-level creature, the fear coming from your instinct.
"Commander, the target will arrive at our fleet in 30 seconds. Do you want to order an attack?"
"Communication group, has the other party responded to your message?"
He did not answer his adjutant directly, but turned to ask the communications officer. Ever since he first discovered the other party, the commander had been asking the communications officer to try to establish contact with the other party.
However, let alone establishing contact, the other party simply ignored any communication they sent.
Until this moment...
It's still the same.
"Reporting to the commander, there is still no response from the other party. Do you still want to continue calling?"
"No need, the entire fleet has shifted to the first level of combat readiness. Once the opponent approaches, launch an attack immediately!"
"Yes, Commander!"
Nodding, the adjutant immediately conveyed the commander's order to each battleship.
Tens of seconds passed in an instant, and Grios had arrived 10au in front of the fleet and slowed down.
And this distance was already within the fleet's firing range. The fleet commander did not have any undue expectations and directly ordered all warships to open fire.
In an instant, 100 million second-class warships for security had already poured out their firepower.
Although it is only a second-class battleship of the Obsidian Empire, it is after all a battleship of the top tenth-level technological civilization, and its firepower is no worse than those of the main battleships of the tenth-level basic or tenth-level technological civilization.
If it were just an ordinary creature, or a creature below Galleon that had not reached the tenth level peak, I am afraid that just one blow would be enough to kill it.
However...
When these attacks hit Grios, they had no effect.
It was as if there was a shell on his body, which not only blocked the previous attacks, but also converted those functions into pure energy forms and absorbed them directly.
For a moment, the scene was very strange.
Rather than saying that it was the Black Yao Empire's guard fleet attack just now, it would be more appropriate to say that it was replenishing energy from a distance.
On the other hand, after devouring the energy contained in these attacks, Grios even burped. Although he had no mouth on his body, it gave everyone the impression that he was burping.
My attacks are energy supplements for others, and I even burp because I feel so comfortable eating...
Can you believe this?
But even if you don't believe it, the facts are right in front of you.
In short, this is impossible to fight...
"Commander, do you want to use physical weapons?"
"Physical weapons?"
Hearing this, the commander was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it.
When the Anti-Sun River Alliance fought in the biological civilization camp, they encountered a creature that was very resistant to energy weapons. After that, they still relied on physical weapons to open up the situation.
Since that incident was spread, various civilizations have equipped their battleships with more or less physical weapons, just in case.
And the battleships in their fleet are also equipped with rail guns, something only second- and third-level civilizations use...
It's just that it has never been used in so many years, so that the commander temporarily forgot that there was such a weapon in his fleet.
"Yes, physical weapons, rail guns!"
"Quickly, order all warships to replace their rail guns and attack!"
In the bridge, the commander suddenly started shouting in a hurry.
After all, the other party has always wanted to get closer to him, and now the distance between the two parties is only 5au. If he doesn't think of a way, today next year may be his death anniversary.
"Yes, Commander!"
"The order has been issued, all battleship rail guns are being deployed and charged, and are expected to be ready to attack in 11 seconds!"
"10...9...3...2...1!"
"Report to Commander, all battleship rail gun attacks are ready!"
Just when Grios was approaching fleet 1au, the fleet finally completed preparations for the rail gun attack.
"Fire, fire immediately!"
Under the command of the commander, hundreds of millions of projectiles were fired from the rail gun, all crashing towards Grios in the most brutal attack method.
However, the last weapon the commander could hope for was...
Although the attack is not directly converted into energy absorption like the previous dark energy weapons, but...
These projectiles, which looked extremely savage, and were fired by the rail guns, all suddenly changed their direction and spread towards both sides, as if they were afraid of Grios and actively avoided them.
This scene simply shocked everyone in the guard fleet.
However, Grios had had enough fun and was not prepared to give them any more time to be stunned.
Countless tentacles suddenly extended infinitely towards the fleet's position, and even extended a distance of 1 au in an extremely unreasonable state, directly rushing into the fleet's array.
Immediately, strands of nowhere began to wrap around those battleships, and the vitality of everyone on the entangled battleships was constantly being devoured, their skin gradually shriveled, and their appearance also aged rapidly.
Until finally, when there is no more life force left in the body to devour, it turns into mummies...
