My Empire of Stars

Chapter 255: First Display of Power (the Third Update for the Love of a Lifetime)

The ships that received the order aimed at the approaching Corruptor fleet and fired a salvo, with countless shells blasting towards the Corruptor fleet.

However, due to the long distance, the effect of this salvo was very limited!

Although the Corruptor fleet, which was moving at high speed, was large in number and density, it still easily avoided 80% of the attacks.

The remaining 20% ​​of the attacks fell on the Corruptor warships, but only smashed the shields of some warships, and did not even damage the armor of their warships.

"Your Majesty, the Corruptors are starting to speed up!" The officer turned back and reported to Li Mingze.

"Launch a harassing attack before they reach the range, and use one-third of the orbital defense module to fire, don't expose all our firepower in advance!" Li Mingze ordered.

The orbital defense module that received the new order opened one-third of the weapon safety, aiming at the approaching Corruptor fleet and spraying anger.

Faced with so many sudden attacks, the Corruptor fleet was a little confused, and hurriedly moved the warships with broken shields to the rear of the fleet.

This time, because the number of shells was too dense, the Corruptor fleet only avoided 50% of the attacks, and the remaining 50% tore apart a large number of warship shields again, and several of them were seriously injured by the armor penetration.

The seriously injured and shield-lost Corruptor warships did not continue to follow the main force, but stayed in place to recover. After the recovery was completed, they would rejoin the battlefield. Anyway, the fleet of nearly one million people did not lack these tens of thousands of warships.

"The Corruptor fleet has entered our range!" The officer who was looking at the scanner shouted loudly.

"All weapons are firing at full force! The arsenal ship began to project!" With Li Mingze's order, all the warships and orbital defense modules in the planetary orbit instantly opened fire, and the overwhelming shells flew towards the flying Corruptor fleet.

This sudden firepower coverage instantly stunned the Corruptor fleet. More than 8,000 warships were suddenly covered by shells and their shields were shattered and shot into the body.

The huge explosion instantly tore these warships into several pieces, and the red biological tissue gradually turned black and lost its vitality.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Corruptor fleet sped up again in an instant. This time, the speed-up seemed to consume a lot of their physical energy, and black spots began to appear on the red biological tissue.

However, the effect of this speed-up has obviously been achieved. At the current speed, the Corruptor fleet can reach the current position of the Imperial battleships after enduring five more rounds of salvos from the Sith Empire. As long as they get close to the Imperial battleships, they can take down the small number of Imperial battleships in one fell swoop with their own melee mode.

After taking down these flexible battleships, the Corruptor battleships can penetrate the slow-moving orbital platform of the Empire from the bottom.

The Corruptor fleet rushed towards the Imperial fleet desperately, and the huge fleet was like a huge mountain pressing towards the Imperial fleet.

"Arsenal destroyers, open fire immediately! Release the shell storm!" Li Mingze slapped the table.

The Arsenal destroyers scattered in the Imperial fleet lowered their bows one after another, aiming the three huge shell storms on their backs at the approaching Corruptor fleet.

"Fire!" Shells were accelerated in the barrels, and when they entered space, the thrusters at the rear of the shells were ignited, accelerating the shells to a faster speed.

Just like rocket launchers in the Earth's atomic energy era, mass-accelerating shells flew towards the Corruptor fleet like a rainstorm.

A Shell Storm has sixty-four barrels and six hundred and forty mass-accelerating shells. An Arsenal destroyer has three Shell Storms, and the entire fleet has three thousand Arsenal destroyers!

More than five million seven hundred and sixty thousand mass-accelerating shells poured down on the Corruptor fleet like a storm!

Facing such a large number of mass-accelerating shells, any defense and evasion are useless!

A full forty-eight thousand Corruptor warships had their shields shattered by the shells that were fired first, and the subsequent shells smashed the armor of the Corruptor warships piece by piece. The biological tissues filled in the hulls frantically converted kinetic energy into heat, emitting dazzling light outward.

But it was useless! Almost every Corruptor warship was hit by more than 80 shells. Their shields could only withstand the first 20 shells, and the remaining 50 were absorbed by armor and biological tissue. The last 10 shells became the last straw that broke the camel's back!

More than 10 mass acceleration shells tore the Corruptor warships, which had no protection and absorption capabilities, into pieces!

Seeing the Empire's shell storm was so terrifying, the Corruptors dispersed their formations one after another, and the distance between each warship was very large.

The Empire destroyer that shot the shell storm empty threw the empty launcher into the air.

The ammunition supply ship on standby at the rear of the fleet immediately flew forward and quickly installed the full shell storm launcher on the destroyer. The whole process took only 18 minutes!

After supplying the destroyer with the shell storm, the ammunition supply ship stretched out its mechanical arm to grab the empty launcher floating in the universe and flew back to the rear of the fleet. They had to continue to reload these empty launchers with ammunition.

"Keep going, keep going!" Li Mingze was a little excited to see that the Cannonball Storm he invented inadvertently could achieve such great results. He suddenly felt that the nearly one million Corruptor warships in front of him were not so scary!

"Your Majesty, just now it was only because the other side was in a dense formation of assault that such a result was achieved. The enemy has now dispersed!" Tianyi hit helplessly from the side. She couldn't let Li Mingze have any arrogance.

"I know, but with such a fast reloading speed, there won't be many left when the warships of the Corruptor civilization fly to the front!" Li Mingze touched his chin.

The arsenal destroyer, which had been fully reloaded, aimed at the Corruptor fleet again and fired a dense rain of bullets.

Because the Corruptor fleet was dispersed, the killing effect of this round of attack was limited, but because of the one-to-one targeting combat method, the arsenal destroyer's salvo still took away nearly 30,000 Corruptor warships!

From the appearance to the present, including the Imperial warships and orbital defense modules, the Corruptor fleet has sunk more than 86,000 warships!

Even the Corruptors, who have nearly one million warships, are very uncomfortable to lose so many warships! Now they have just entered the range of the Empire!

"Order the drone mothership to start launching self-destruct drones!" The drone mothership that received the order loaded a series of elliptical drones into the Gatling launcher in the middle of the drone mothership, and the drones were accelerated and fired at the Corruptor fleet.

Faced with the Corruptor warships that had no long-range weapons and relied entirely on close combat, the Empire's drones lost their containment function and could only use the self-destruct reactors carried in their bodies as "torpedoes".

The drones that flew into the Corruptor fleet at a high speed spread their wings, dodging the constantly waving tentacles, and crashed into the Corruptor warships.

The current shield can only block the characteristics of carrying a large amount of kinetic energy or energy bodies.

These drones slowed down suddenly after approaching the shield, and easily penetrated the shield and entered the shield of the Corruptor warship!
