阿尔法舰队带领地球帝国第5、8、10三支舰队立即支援第7、第12舰队。
Thomas led the other six fleets of the Lunar Empire and the remaining Earth Empire fleets back to the Earth Empire fleet headquarters through a portal. Thomas then deployed a Lunar Empire fleet and several Earth Empire fleets near the six important new Earths, while increasing the number of Earth Empire fleets near the remaining four new Earths unguarded by the Lunar Empire. This arrangement was specifically made by Thomas because the Lunar Empire fleet was carrying a neutron star.
The sixteen fleets of the "Star Luo Civilization" have already engaged in battle with the 7th and 12th Fleets.
Sixteen billion warships, like hummingbirds, surrounded the 7th and 12th fleets in space. The combined intelligent energy shield of the two fleets, under the strong attack of countless ultra-high energy lasers from the enemy fleet, was stimulated to emit light in all directions, forming a huge luminous body. This luminous body continuously emitted various rays into the surrounding space.
The sniper ships of the 7th and 12th Fleets also launched a strong counterattack against the enemy fleet. Super-intelligent energy beams were fired from various parts of the ships. These super-intelligent energy beams struck the Star Luo Civilization warships and were reflected by the energy shields of the Star Luo Civilization warships, creating ripples of energy on the shields. A single super-intelligent energy beam did not penetrate these warships. However, under the continuous intelligent energy beam attacks from the sniper ships of the 7th and 12th Fleets, the energy shields of the Star Luo Civilization warships were finally penetrated. The Star Luo Civilization warships with their energy shields breached then exploded violently.
When the combined fleet led by the Alpha Fleet jumped out of warp space and appeared outside the encirclement of the Star Luo Civilization fleet, a large number of Star Luo Civilization fleets turned around to prepare to surround the combined fleet.
The Alpha Fleet deployed a neutron warstar, which was directly dropped into the densely packed area of the "Star Luo Civilization" fleet. Although the "Star Luo Civilization" warships could withstand a single intelligent energy beam attack from the sniper ship, the powerful gravity of the neutron warstar still tore many of the "Star Luo Civilization" warships to pieces.
The "Star Luo Civilization" fleet exhibited a clear pattern of large-scale panic and flight. Just as these warships were preparing to accelerate away from this powerful gravitational region, all the sniper ships of the six fleets of the joint fleet launched long-range intelligent energy beams. These intelligent energy beams, aided by the gravitational slingshot effect of the neutron star, directly shattered the energy shields of the "Star Luo Civilization" warships, vaporizing countless warships. After destroying the warships, these intelligent energy beams then made a turning attack, instantly annihilating another large number of warships.
The "Star Luo Civilization" warships were almost half lost. The remaining half of the warships escaped the strong gravitational pull of the neutron star and fled into faster-than-light warp space.
The Alpha Fleet retrieved the neutron war star, immediately activated the Klein force field generator, entered the Klein bottle flip space, and instantly arrived at the new Earth, which was no longer guarded by the Lunar Empire fleet. They then deployed the neutron war star and joined the battle.
After the combined fleet led by the Lunar Empire's Alpha Fleet deployed neutron war stars on various new Earths, more than half of the "Star Luo Civilization" warships were destroyed, forcing them to flee one after another and enter warp space to escape at faster-than-light speeds.
After repelling the attack of the "Star Luo Civilization", the joint fleet of the Earth Empire and the Moon Empire held a grand welcoming ceremony.
The arrival of the Lunar Empire's joint fleet was naturally met with a warm welcome from all the inhabitants of the Earth Empire, marking another grand celebration for the Earth Empire in over a century. The original inhabitants of the three planets—Gesang, Yama, and Yineng—were particularly excited and adoring upon seeing Zhou Yuan appear on the screen, warmly welcoming the return of this "divine messenger."
Wei Shan was naturally jealous again for no reason, because the Earth Empire's head steward, the lovable Aya, had once again become attached to Zhou Yuan, sticking to him all the time, which made Zhou Yuan smile wryly.
After nearly a month of revelry and rest, Thomas, the commander-in-chief of the Earth Empire, ordered the Earth Empire, with the help of the Lunar Empire fleet, to accelerate the production of Klein force field generators to upgrade and modify the warships of the various fleets of the Earth Empire, so that all warships of the Earth Empire could also perform Klein bottle space flipping long-distance travel.
Scientists from the Earth Empire Academy of Sciences then conducted detailed and in-depth research on the neutron war star, Klein force field (gravitons and repulsive ions), and neutrino oscillation technology involved in the "Morse modulator matrix" provided by the Lunar Empire fleet.
After the Earth Empire sent a large number of people to the Triangular Galaxy, the Lunar Empire also developed rapidly, basically in sync with the Earth Empire.
The saying "Many hands make light work" is absolutely true. Thanks to the combined efforts of scientists from both the Earth Empire and the Lunar Empire, the Empire's scientists achieved some significant accomplishments in less than thirty-five years.
In the year 177 of the Interstellar Era, the time for transmitting information in the galaxy using the "Mosleyan Modulation Matrix" was reduced from one year to two hours.
In the year 189 of the Interstellar Era, the space-flipping Klein force field generator for intergalactic travel achieved greater power, reducing the time between the Milky Way and the Triangulum Galaxy from one year to about half a year.
In the year 202 of the Interstellar Era, the long-distance "Sky Eye" was successfully upgraded using graviton and repulsion modulation resonance scanning technology, becoming the long-distance "Twin Sky Eyes".
From the year 202 to the year 246 of the Interstellar Era, the Lunar Empire began to observe the Milky Way's satellite galaxies using the long-range "Gemini Eyes," an observation that astonished everyone.
Although there are more than thirty satellite dwarf galaxies of varying sizes around the Milky Way, many of these dwarf galaxies orbiting the Milky Way have been destroyed.
Even the dwarf galaxies that are currently satellites of the Milky Way are not entirely peaceful.
In the Canis Major dwarf galaxy, the closest satellite galaxy to the Milky Way, there are numerous signs of battleships everywhere. Zhou Yuan and others believe that the "Star Luo Civilization" fleet may be in this galaxy.
In the Large Magellanic Cloud, many stars vanished and reappeared instantaneously in interstellar space, clearly the work of an advanced civilization. Signs of battle also appeared in the Centaurus Dwarf Elliptic Galaxy, Small Magellanic Cloud, Ursa Minor Dwarf Galaxy, Sculptor Dwarf Galaxy, Draco Dwarf Galaxy, Sextans Dwarf Galaxy, Ursa Major Dwarf Galaxy, Carina Dwarf Galaxy, and Furnace Dwarf Galaxy. In the Ursa Minor Dwarf Galaxy, however, no large-scale battles seemed to have taken place.
In the year 249 of the Interstellar Era, the time for transmitting information in the galaxy using the "Morse Modulation Matrix" was reduced from two hours to one hour.
In the year 253 of the Interstellar Era, the time to travel between the Milky Way and the Triangulum Galaxy was shortened from six months to three months.
In the year 256 of the Interstellar Era, the Earth Empire dispatched 20 fleets, led by the Alpha Fleet, to advance towards the neighboring Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy. This galaxy had always shown signs of large-scale battles, and the Empire's scientists believed that the "Star Luo Civilization" was located in this galaxy.
The Earth Empire's combined fleet conducted a Klein bottle space flip long-distance voyage and arrived at the nearest satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, in less than a day.
The Earth Empire's Allied Fleet had just emerged from the Klein Bottle space when artificial intelligence reported a battle between two fleets a light-year away. The Allied Fleet entered warp space, and soon after, the Alpha Fleet jumped out of warp space, while the rest of the Allied Fleet remained hidden within it. The two fleets were already locked in fierce combat, with beams of light and shipwrecks scattered everywhere. The Alpha Fleet confirmed that the larger fleet belonged to the "Star Luo Civilization," while the smaller fleet was a human civilization fleet. As soon as the Alpha Fleet emerged from warp space and appeared on the outskirts of the two opposing fleets' positions, the numerous "Star Luo Civilization" warships opened fire on it. The Alpha Fleet retaliated with high-energy laser fire, without using its intelligent energy beams. The Alpha Fleet and the human civilization fleet, working together, quickly suppressed the "Star Luo Civilization" fleet. Seeing the situation was dire, the "Star Luo Civilization" fleet's warships entered warp space and vanished in the blink of an eye.
"Unknown human civilization, thank you very much for coming to help. I am Fernova, commander of the 67th Fleet of the Roman Empire. May I ask who you are?"
The Imperial fleet did not pursue, but instead greeted this relatively advanced human civilization. The individuals in this civilization were not tall, about 1.4 meters, and had six fingers and six toes, with webbed feet.
"Commander Fernova, hello, I am George, the commander of the Earth Empire's Alpha Fleet."
"Earth Empire? I've never heard of it."
"We come from the Milky Way."
"You're from the Milky Way galaxy? And you're from human civilization?" Fernova seemed incredulous. "Then what are you doing in this galaxy?"
"We are an interstellar expedition team from the Earth Empire of the Milky Way."
"An interstellar expedition?" Fernova was skeptical.
"Yes. We only recently arrived in this star system, and during our ten-odd days of travel, we discovered many warship wrecks along the way. Commander Fernova, could you tell us what happened?"
"That was the result of a battle between the Star Luo Empire and our Empire and its allies."
"Oh. The Star Luo Empire? Are they very powerful?"
"The Star Luo Empire wields immense power in this star system. They possess countless warships and have conquered numerous intelligent civilizations within the system, using them as henchmen. Our Roman Empire refuses to submit, which is why we've waged war against them for so many years. Of course, the Roman Empire also has many allies."
As Zhou Yuan and the others listened, they felt it had a flavor of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.
The dark forest of galaxies is a world of the strong, and this is a truth throughout the entire universe.
"We also hope to become allies of the Roman Empire and eliminate the Star Luo Empire and its minions."
“That’s wonderful.” Fernova was clearly excited. “However, I need to report this to the Imperial Diet, which requires their approval.”
"understand."
Two hours later, Fernova's joyful voice rang out.
"The council has approved it. We shall set sail immediately for our Roman Empire homeworld base."
"it is good."
The two imperial fleets quickly entered warp drive and headed toward the Roman Empire's homeworld base.
The other nineteen fleets of the Earth Empire's combined fleet stealthily followed the Alpha Fleet and the Roman Empire's 67th Fleet.
