Federation Year 85 years.
1,400 light years from Earth, Otto Empire.
Otto Empire is one of the two affiliated forces of the Babawi Empire on Minor Arm of Orion Arm. The other is of course Or Republic next to Shanhai Pass.
Being able to become the eleventh affiliated force of the Babawi Empire proves that it has considerable strength. Among Orion Arm and Level 3 Civilization, Otto Empire can be ranked in the top ten just like Or Republic.
However, at this moment, Emperor Muella of the Otto Empire no longer had the majesty of the past, and instead had a look of terror 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 Capital Sphere to hold the largest military parade in history.
At this moment, 70% of the empire's main warships are gathered here, with the number reaching 8 million, including 600,000 Babavi warships. The scene is extremely spectacular!
However, just in the middle of the military parade, Capital Sphere of the Otto Empire received an uninvited guest.
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, Otto Empire, except for the 600,000-strong Babavi battleship, 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 battleships were all unified battleships. How could this not surprise Muella? In his impression, the only fleet composed of a single ship type like this seemed to be Babawi Empire.
In addition, the appearance of this huge fleet was exactly the same as Babawi Empire's jump, which gave Muella a very bad feeling.
As if to confirm Muella's premonition, this sudden fleet began to pour its ferocious firepower on the various regiments in the military parade.
Speaking of which, Otto Empire's fleet military quality 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 after the wave of attacks, everyone was stunned, because all the battleships on the opposite side held Energy Shield. 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 Interstellar Fleet, Matvey responded very quickly. He immediately adjusted his attack strategy and issued orders to each legion!
Standing next to him was none other than Emperor Muella. When the sudden change occurred, Matvey was watching the ceremony with Muella.
"Matvey, do you know the other party's identity?"
"Your Majesty, the database is comparing data, I believe there will be results soon!"
Matvey's face is quite ugly. After all, as a commander of Level 3 Civilization, facing nearly 7 million Level 4 Civilization battleships, no one can look good.
"The report has completed data comparison. More than 80% of its warships are Io Federation warships. However, it is recorded in the database that this Io Federation should be a civilization that has just been 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. They may be its new warships."
Ma Vite's adjutant came to Muella and Matvey to report.
This time Muella and Matvey were both stunned.
You actually told me this is Level 3 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, Otto Empire would lose tens of thousands of warships in each wave of bombardment, while the opponent's losses were only dozens of warships.
Soon, Matvey realized that the reason why the battle losses were so different was because of the 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 Level 4 Civilization battleship, he had to divide the battleship into fire groups of 30 ships to carry out concentrated fire attacks.
Although this can indeed bring damage to the opposing warships, after all, once the main gun fire of 30 warships hits, even Energy Shield 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 Babawi Empire!"
After giving the order, Matvey turned to Muella and said.
"Yes, why did I forget this!"
Muella said as he took out a communication device from his body and pressed it.
Soon, the communication was connected, and the figure of Babareya appeared on the bridge.
"Babareya Your Majesty!"
Muella lowered his head respectfully.
"Muella, why did you contact me via emergency communication?"
"Babareya Your Majesty! Otto Empire is under a large-scale attack, and we can no longer withstand it!"
After listening to Muella's words, Babareya was also shocked. Otto Empire is definitely a tyrant on Minor Arm. It's good if he doesn't bully other civilizations around him. How can he still...
"Muella, which civilization attacked you?"
"Babareya Your Majesty is a civilization called Io Federation. Our database shows that the opponent is Level 3 Civilization! Now they have hit us Capital Sphere!"
"Wait, Io Federation, I know, but they don't have the ability to hit you Capital Sphere, and Io Federation should be 2,000 light years away from you, right?"
Babareya is a little confused. Io Federation has a very deep memory. After all, Babavile reported it just a few years ago.
But this Io Federation is just a civilization that is just in the middle of level three. 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 Star Path!
"Sir Babareya, all of the opponent's nearly 7 million battleships have Energy Shield, and their firepower is also quite fierce. They are not like Level 3 Civilization at all!"
As Muella said this, he asked someone to take over the scene on the battle line and project it in front of Babareya.
I saw two huge fleets engaged in a bombardment at the moment. The difference was that one side had a shield and did not suffer much loss after each bombardment, while most of the warships on the other side did not have Energy Shield. Every wave of attacks would cost tens of thousands of warships.
If this situation continues, the side without shields will be completely wiped out within two hours.
Seeing this picture, even Babareya was shocked.
"You told me this is Io Federation?"
