Five days later, outside the Return Star Central Star System, compared to its forr prosperity, the current Return Star could be said to be desolate.
The queue of Spaceships that used to stretch for thousands of kiloters had Vanished Completely. Only a few Spaceships with dia logos orbited around the Central Star System, presumably broadcasting live.
The entire Central Star System had entered a state of ergency.
In fact, even if a state of ergency wasn't declared, no one would probably dare to co to Return Star now.
Because the gray mist perating the Central Planet could be seen with incomparable clarity even from space.
Its source was the Star Casting Palace. The gray vortex exuded the power of Dead Silence, yet lifeforms that ca into contact with those mists didn't feel any discomfort.
In the Void Starry Sky not far from the Central Star System, a pair of incomparably dazzling eyes gazed at that gray vortex.
"Death Tide, a Cosmic Calamity that even Titans couldn't resist. Digor, just how capable are you to dare touch it."
"It is said that this is the Star Glory Empire's sche, wanting Digor to walk a path they've never walked before on their behalf."
Another ntal Fluctuation responded.
"There seem to be quite a few acquaintances in this Star Sector. A major battle today is unavoidable."
"Even you Divine Spirits have co, let alone others."
"..."
Various ntal Fluctuations circulated and quickly dissipated. The Void Starry Sky maintained its Dead Silence.
………
"...All nine legions have arrived, and all lifeforms above Tier A3 have also been recalled..."
"...The Psionic Fusion Device has been deployed, and various Void Energy Traps have also been placed in the Void..."
"...According to the Research Institute's speculation, the Death Tide is gradually spreading, and will accumulate to its peak in about three days."
"...At that ti, if the Starry Veil is not opened, the inward-venting Death Tide will destroy the entire Central Star System in an instant..."
In the internal High Echelon eting, everyone expressed their views. Those able to appear here were the most core High Echelons, and various preparations had basically been completed.
Vimala's expression was calm. This was only Return Star's own power, which was far from enough to handle this war.
"...Spirit User, the support sent by Holivias has arrived..."
Both of these civilizations were founding civilizations of the Civilization Alliance. Although shocked by Return Star's risky actions, they also sent so support.
"The Black Net's support has also arrived..." Titus said calmly, which made everyone look at Titus with so surprise.
The Black Net was a faction not to be underestimated. At their absolute peak, their influence was not weaker than any top-tier civilization. Even though they had declined now, they still possessed unknown foundations.
They didn't expect this Prince to have won over the Black Net without batting an eyelid.
Actually, everyone present also had so secret connections with other factions in their daily lives, it's just that factions that hadn't reached a certain tier couldn't possibly appear in this eting.
"Black Net, are they trustworthy?" Vimala frowned and asked: "If it cos at the cost of trading civilization interests, we'd rather not have this kind of support."
"Rest assured, no one can steal Return Star's interests in front of ," Titus looked directly at Vimala.
Vimala didn't say anything further, but rely nodded.
"The Lord of the Ark will co," Alexei, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
Everyone was stunned for a mont before realizing who the Lord of the Ark was.
"The Leader of the Salvation Ark?" A Middle-Aged Man probed tentatively.
"Who else?" Alexei shrugged, still looking sowhat casual: "Who else can be called the Lord of the Ark?"
"This..."
Many High Echelons were sowhat shocked and uncertain. This Prince Alexei, who usually kept a low profile, could actually get the Lord of the Ark to take such a huge risk to support Return Star.
"Are you sure?" Soone couldn't help but confirm.
"Prince Hotan, why don't you ask big brother Titus again? Do you think I would lie in this kind of situation?" Although Alexei was smiling, his words were completely blunt.
Prince Hotan smiled awkwardly and said no more.
Vimala also glanced at Alexei with so surprise. Titus's expression darkened slightly. This Younger Brother of his seed about to show his sharp edge.
He was Gambling, Vimala was Gambling, and Alexei was also Gambling. They were Gambling that Return Star could survive this crisis.
At that ti, all their efforts would receive returns far beyond imagination.
It's just that the enemy Titus thought he had was originally only Vimala, but now it seed Alexei had to be added.
"Right, Queen, have you contacted the Other-Dinsional Camp? This is also a power worth winning over. After all, Li Yu is considered your person," Alexei asked casually.
"The war has already started, we temporarily cannot contact Li Yu," Vimala shook her head calmly, but was cursing in her heart.
Damn Li Yu, damn Other-Dinsional Camp. She had basically determined now that the Other-Dinsional Camp was completely playing her.
Up until now, no one had contacted her, let alone any God of the Force. She now even suspected that the God of the Force was fabricated.
"Is that so? That's truly a pity." Alexei smiled and shook his head, then said casually:
"Do you guys think Li Yu foresaw this mont long ago, so he lingered in No Man's Land and didn't want to co back?"
"Is he trying to cut ties with Return Star?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the many High Echelons present turned sowhat strange, especially Prince Connor and General Aisel.
After all, their sons also stayed in No Man's Land with Li Yu.
At the ti, it seed to have a hint of being held hostage, but looking at it now, it might not be a bad thing.
Vimala frowned slightly, not wanting to entangle too much on this matter, not because of Li Yu, but because of Horus.
Because Horus also stayed in No Man's Land. If the conversation continued, they might end up revoking Horus's Return Star citizenship as well.
Standing behind Vimala, Klein raised her head slightly and looked at Alexei, her eyes flickering.
"Now is not the ti to discuss these matters. How to deal with the imdiate crisis is the most urgent task," Vimala shouted in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Alexei's face also turned serious: "You're right, I cared too much. Let's discuss it after this crisis is over."
He had laid a trap for a later confrontation. Vimala took a deep breath, ignored it, and began discussing other matters.
After the eting ended, Klein hurried away, turned on her Smart Terminal, and began calling Li Yu, but there was no response.
She hesitated for a mont and began to dial Horus, Edwin, and Max one by one, but couldn't connect with any of them.
In the Interstellar battlefield, long-distance communication Disruption was the most basic tactic. Basically, as soon as a war started, the signals in the war zone would be cut off.
Short-distance local communication could barely be applied through signal enhancers.
But for long-distance communication, unless one left the war zone, they could only wait for the war to end or use other ans.
Klein closed her Smart Terminal, looking worried, and clenched her fair fingers tightly.
………
Another four days later, in the No Man's Land battlefield. The artillery fire crisscrossing the battlefield had died down a lot. Shattered warship ruins and scattered tal Parts were everywhere.
Broken limbs covered in coagulated blood drifted in the Starry Sky, occasionally Devoured by inexplicably appearing blood streams.
From the Reforrs' ambush until now, the war had lasted for ten days and was gradually nearing its end.
The Resistance Organization United Fleet had been mostly strangled. Black smoke emanated from all three Interstellar Fortresses, their surface Shields flickering non-stop with many gaps, clearly having suffered severe damage.
Everyone had temporarily ignored Gensokyo and that Death Star standing in the Starry Sky.
However, the Four-Ard Titan Legion's losses were also severe, the fleet size appearing to have shrunk by at least two-thirds.
The Interstellar Fortresses, on the other hand, maintained an intact state, continuously unleashing artillery fire.
The Main Cannon seed to have just fired; the barrel was still crimson red, gradually fading under the effect of the cooling system.
Ted was missing three of his four arms. He panted heavily as he looked at the two people in front of him.
They were the leaders of Blade of Kuzan'er and Crimson Holy Fire, respectively. They had reached the point of lee Combat between leaders.
"Why stake all your assets for the Reforrs? You are already destined to fail this ti." Ted shook the other party's confidence on the comm channel.
At the sa ti, he was secretly cursing Raymond. That guy definitely didn't die in the previous ambush, but still refused to show his face now; he was definitely hiding.
The two leaders were also heavily injured, their hearts heavy. The current losses far exceeded their imagination, but now they could only continue to brace themselves and hold on.
The only area where large-scale combat was still occurring was the boundary between the Rebel Legion and the Golden Lion Legion.
"The Star Glory Empire has invested heavily. Two strategic-level Titan Artifacts, this far exceeds our estimates."
In the Main Ship, the Commander's expression was heavy as she watched the two incomparably dazzling objects on the battlefield.
"...The losses currently inflicted on the Star Glory Empire are far below the lowest predictions in the plan," Alexander's projection said.
"Nothing we can do..." Husband shook his head: "The resources invested by the Star Glory Empire far exceed ours."
[Sword of Deathly Silence]––After a long charge, it could unleash an energy attack comparable to a fortress's Main Cannon.
And it swept across an area, not limited to a single point. Its lethality was astonishing.
[Shield of the Fierce Sun]––Enhanced the lifeforms holding Auxiliary Shields, providing them with unparalleled defensive power.
The Star Glory Empire's High Echelon lifeforms all carried Auxiliary Shields; conventional attacks were almost ineffective.
These were both strategic-level Titan Artifacts, mainly functioning on large-scale Interstellar battlefields. With sufficient coordination, their power was astonishing.
Whereas sothing like the Blade of Gungnir was an individual-target Titan Artifact.
And at this mont, a super massive spatial vortex appeared in the center of the Rebel Legion, even larger than an Interstellar Fortress.
A massive, dense cluster of heavy missiles and energy reaction devices faintly erged within.
Seeing this spatial vortex, the Commander's expression changed drastically, "Not good, it's [Super Ti-Space Bombardnt], the third Titan Artifact!"
[Super Ti-Space Bombardnt]––Storing unimaginable firepower Ammunition within it in advance, it could forcefully break through a Space Lockdown and detonate at a designated location!
The expressions of Husband and Alexander turned extrely ugly.
The terrifying attack brought by [Super Ti-Space Bombardnt] far exceeded ordinary people's imagination.
It triggered massive Spatial Collapse and distortion. The surrounding space with a radius of tens of thousands of kiloters seed to be compressed together in an instant.
Not only were there conventional missiles, but also a large number of spatial Bombs. Normally, these Weapons could only be used as Traps and might even be discovered in advance.
But through [Super Ti-Space Bombardnt], they could detonate in the Core Region of the Rebel Legion.
Whether it was Spaceships or anything else, they were instantly torn to shreds.
The Spatial Collapse spread in the center of the legion like a prairie fire, sweeping across the entire legion.
And the entire Rebel Legion slowly split apart amidst the Impact, the explosion aftermath continuing to spread.
After a prolonged battle, the Rebel Legion's combat power was already sparse, and now it was thoroughly blasted to pieces.
The destructive power brought by a strategic Titan Artifact was astonishing, completely ending this battle that was already nearing its tail end.
Cutting off the Reforrs' hope of retreating!
Harken looked at the Rebel Legion disintegrating in the explosion, a cold sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Still wanted to ambush the Star Glory Empire, this ti we'll let you learn your lesson properly.
The Golden Lion Legion's losses weren't high, overall controlled at around ten percent, still within an acceptable range.
It was just the Troll Legion and the Four-Ard Titan Legion whose losses were relatively large, but this had nothing to do with him, and he didn't care either.
"This war is completely over!" Harken's eyes were filled with determination. Next was the stage of cleaning up the battlefield and wrapping things up.
"Legion Commander, the war isn't over yet." Sirzo shook his head and turned his gaze to the massive dinsional shadow deep in the Starry Sky.
"Gensokyo..." Harken's expression changed slightly. The Holographic Screen rapidly zood in, and the Death Star's massive Corporeal Form appeared before everyone.
Even through the screen, they could still feel the overwhelming pressure from the opponent's chanical body.
To get Gensokyo, the Death Star was an insurmountable wall.
"It didn't intervene in our previous battle, how about we..." Harken didn't want a head-on conflict with the Death Star, especially after a major battle.
Although Gensokyo was very important, under these circumstances, it was also acceptable to retreat to avoid further losses.
However, Sirzo shook his head and turned on his Smart Terminal. There was an anonymous ssage on it––
Li Yu is trying to control Gensokyo, but it will still take so ti to succeed.
You guys can cooperate with the Grand Duke of Blood to deal with that big guy.
