1,400 light years away from Earth, the Otto Empire.
The Otto Empire is one of the two affiliated forces of the Babavi Empire on the sub-arm of the Orion Arm. The other is of course the Orr Republic on the border of Shanhaiguan.
Being able to become the eleven affiliated forces of the Babavi Empire proves that it has considerable strength. Among the third-level civilizations of the Orion Arm, the Otto Empire, like the Orr Republic, can be ranked among the top ten.
However, at this moment, Emperor Murat of the Otton Empire no longer had the majesty of the past, and instead had a look of horror on his face.
Today was supposed to be the celebration of the 10,000th anniversary of the founding of the Otto Empire. To this end, the empire had even mobilized a large number of elite legions from all over its territory more than twenty years ago to prepare for the largest military parade in history in the capital area.
At this moment, 70% of the empire's main battleships are gathered here, the number reaching 8 million, including 600,000 Babavi battleships. The scene is extremely spectacular!
However, just in the middle of the military parade, the capital area of the Otto Empire welcomed uninvited guests.
It was a huge fleet not much smaller than my own, and visually, this fleet was more majestic than the 8 million warships currently in the military parade.
After all, except for the 600,000-strong Babavi battleship, the Otto Empire's other battleships are composed of multiple ship types, most of which are small and medium-sized ships such as frigates, destroyers, and cruisers.
On the other hand, looking at this huge uninvited fleet, its warships are all unified battleships. How can this not surprise Murat? In his impression, the fleet composed of a single ship type like this seems to have only Baba.
Wei Empire.
In addition, the appearance of this huge fleet was exactly the same as the jump of the Babavi Empire, which gave Murat a very bad premonition.
As if to confirm Murat's premonition, this sudden fleet began to pour its ferocious firepower on the various regiments in the parade.
Speaking of which, the military quality of the Otto Empire's fleet is quite good.
Although they were suddenly attacked, they did not show any panic. Instead, they quickly changed their formation, formed an interception array, and gradually began to counterattack.
But when the wave of attacks passed, everyone was stunned, because all the battleships on the opposite side had energy shields, and after a wave of covering shots, they were unable to cause any damage.
"Quick, immediately change to a concentrated fire attack. Every 30 warships form a fire group and focus on one of the opponent's warships!"
As the commander-in-chief of the Otto Empire's star fleet, Matvey responded very quickly, immediately adjusted his attack strategy, and issued orders to each legion!
Standing next to him was Emperor Murat. When the sudden change occurred, Matvey was watching the ceremony with Murat.
"Matvi, do you know the other party's identity?"
"Your Majesty, the database is currently comparing data. I believe the results will be available soon!"
Matvey's face was quite ugly. After all, as the commander of a level three civilization, no one could look down on his face when facing nearly 7 million battleships of a level four civilization.
"Report, data comparison has been completed. More than 80% of its warships are battleships of the Io Federation. However, it is recorded in the database that this Io Federation should be a civilization that has just promoted to the middle stage of the third level. As for the remaining hundreds of thousands of warships
, no search results were found in the database, it may be its new warship."
Mavit's adjutant came to Murat and Matvey to report.
At this time, both Murat and Matvey were stunned.
You actually told me that this is a third-level civilization? And it’s only a mid-level third-level civilization?
Do you think I'm blind?
While the two were in a daze, the situation on the battlefield was becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Otto Empire.
On average, in each wave of bombardment, the Otto Empire lost tens of thousands of warships, while the opponent's losses were only a few dozen warships.
Soon, Matvey realized that the reason for the huge difference in battle losses was because of distance.
The current distance between the two sides is about 3 million kilometers. At this distance, the army led by Liang Xingchen can use range coverage to shoot, keeping the hit rate within an acceptable range.
But Matvey was different. In order to target the energy shield of the fourth-level civilization warships, he had to divide the warships into fire groups of 30 ships to carry out concentrated fire attacks.
Although this can indeed bring damage to the opposing warships, after all, the concentrated fire of the main guns of 30 warships, once hit, even with energy shields cannot withstand it.
But the problem is that the distance between the two sides is now 3 million kilometers, and the hit rate of the concentrated fire attack is so low that it makes people speechless.
"Order all legions to stick to me and shorten the distance!"
"yes!"
"Your Majesty, you should contact the Babavi Empire!"
After giving the order, Matvey turned to Murat and said.
"That's right, how could I forget this!"
As Murat spoke, he took out a communication device from his body and pressed it.
Soon, the communication was connected, and Barbarea's figure appeared on the bridge.
"Your Majesty Barbarea!"
Murat bowed his head respectfully.
"Mura, why did you contact me via emergency communication?"
"Your Majesty Barbarea! The Otto Empire is undergoing a large-scale attack, and we can no longer withstand it!"
After listening to Murat's words, Barbarea was also shocked. The Otto Empire was definitely a hegemon in the second arm. It would be good if it didn't bully other civilizations around it. How could it...
"Murat, which civilization attacked you?"
"His Majesty Barbarea is a civilization called the Io Federation. Our database shows that the other party is a third-level civilization! Now it has reached our capital area!"
"Wait a minute, I know the Io Federation, but they don't have the ability to hit your capital area, and the Io Federation should be 2,000 light years away from you, right?"
Barbarea was a little confused. He still had a deep memory of the Io Federation. After all, Barbara Weiler had just reported on it a few years ago.
But this Io Federation is just a civilization that has just entered the middle stage of Level 3. The most important thing is that it is nearly 2,000 light years away from you.
What is the concept of 2000 light years? It means that it will take at least nearly a thousand years for people to reach you through the Star Road!
"Lord Barbarea, the opponent's nearly 7 million warships all have energy shields, and their firepower is also quite fierce. They are not like a third-level civilization at all!"
As Murat spoke, someone took over the scene on the battle line and projected it in front of Barbarea.
I saw two huge fleets engaged in a bombardment at the moment. The difference is that one side has a shield and does not suffer much damage after each bombardment, while most of the warships on the other side do not have energy shields.
If a wave of attacks passes by, tens of thousands of warships will be lost.
If this situation continues, the side without shields will be completely wiped out within two hours.
