Today's Zerg is no longer the Zerg of fifteen years ago. Relying on the genes of Heig and other high-level Purgatory Creatures, the entire race has ushered in a wave of evolution.
And all of this was hidden deeply within Boötes Void by Aliya and was not exposed to the eyes of the federation.
Perhaps, on the surface, the Zerg still have their original strength and have not changed much. At most, they have only restored a lot of soldiers.
However, just in front of Aliya now, there are eight seventh-level Biological Civilization imperial insects. Compared with fifteen years ago, the overall strength has simply risen several levels.
However, even so, Aliya still has no confidence that she can defeat the Federation. Let alone the Federation today, even the Federation fifteen years ago, her confidence is not that high.
In her original plan, the Zerg had to immerse themselves in development for at least a hundred years before they would have the strength to compete with the Federation. However, Lin Fan suddenly broke her skin, which made her quite passive.
However, no matter how passive you are, you can only bite the bullet.
Aliya is very clear that since Lin Fan has started to take action, it must have blocked all his escape routes. Now he has no other choice but to fight to the death.
"We can't continue like this. Scattered garrisoning can't stop the human offensive at all. Call the entire clan to assemble at Neumann Star Cluster immediately!"
"Yes, Queen!"

Nether Fleet cleared the way and destroyed the command system of the Zerg, and then the conventional fleet followed up to clean up the Zerg swarm that had lost its command. Federal Fleet relied on this strategy and was unstoppable along the way.
In just one month, three galaxy groups have been captured, accounting for about 20% of the Zerg-controlled area.
Originally, there were only three galaxy groups, which could not account for 20% of a large Supercluster area. However, Viers Supercluster was very special. The battle between the Zerg and Holy Victory Empire more than 100,000 years ago destroyed 80% of the entire Supercluster area into nothingness, thus forming a cosmic wonder like Boötes Void.
Therefore, there are only fifteen galaxy groups in the entire Viers Supercluster.
Boötes Void peripheral, Neumann Star Cluster.
Due to the existence of Boötes Void, the only 15 galaxy groups left in Viers Supercluster exist around the periphery of the void, and Newman is the only galaxy group that cuts off the entire outer circle of Supercluster. It is also a strategic location that Federal Fleet must capture if it wants to continue moving forward.
Of course, there is another way, which is to go around in the opposite direction along the outer circle of Boötes Void, but in the current situation where all the Zerg have gathered here, even if it is to go around in the opposite direction, the final result of the decisive battle with them in Newman cannot be avoided.
As the saying goes, it is better to fight early than to fight late. Since there is a decisive battle, then accompany the Zerg here in Newman to fight the battle that determines the outcome of the entire campaign.
Therefore, not only the Zerg are gathering, but the Federation is also gathering.
At this moment, more than eighty standard galaxy clusters have been assembled in Wesserlo Star Cluster adjacent to Newman.
War is about to break out.
——
At the same time, Current Node and Heres lead to Nirnichea Supercluster.
"Commander, abnormal energy fluctuations in the ocean currents have been detected. Something is about to arrive through the ocean currents. Based on the amplitude of the fluctuations, there should be a lot of them!"
"Sound the first-level battle alarm. Regardless of whether it is the infernal army that comes out, we will directly launch a full-scale fire blockade!"
"Understood!"
Although the federal technology cannot monitor the ocean currents, based on the research over the years and the analysis of the energy fluctuations escaping from the ocean currents, it is still possible to deduce that something is about to arrive through the ocean currents. Even if it is impossible to know exactly what is coming, at least there is an early warning, right?
As for whether it is the army of purgatory that is coming?
Lin Kexin doesn't care about this. At this critical moment, even if it's the Peace Ambassador, he'll give you a shot.
After all, the key to defending Current Mouth is not to give the opponent a chance to rush out too many troops. Otherwise, once a solid bridgehead is formed by the opponent, subsequent armies can continue to gather relatively safely.
By that time, it will not be far from the defense line being breached.
Therefore, Lin Kexin does not have the time to play the game of asking and warning with the opponent. The safest way is to go full fire without saying anything and not give the opponent any chance to rush out and form a formation.
"Coming!"
A few minutes later, as a shout came from the bridge intelligence team, Lin Kexin also shrank his eyes and stared at the ocean exit monitoring screen projected in front of him, and a large number of wars flew out of it.
"Huh?"
Looking at the target on the screen, Lin Kexin made a confused sound.
No matter how you look at it, this is a battleship of technological civilization, not those biological legions of purgatory, right?
However, Lin Kexin will not stop the attack just because of this. At this critical moment, no omissions can occur.
"All warships and Defense Platform opened fire immediately, forming a fire network to block the ocean current outlet!"
"Understood!"
Since Current Mouth is so large, even at a distance of 1AU, after excluding the area occupied by Defense Platform, at most two galaxy clusters can be deployed in a hemispherical shape.
Therefore, the five galaxy clusters cannot be deployed on the defense line at the same time, and three of them can only be used as reserve teams.
Two billion Dauntless-class Warship, plus more than 100 million of the latest generation of federal fire support platforms, under the command of Lin Kexin, launched an attack on the exit of the ocean current at the same time. The powerful attack immediately formed an airtight firepower network, completely covering the fleet of these unknown forces.
However, the impact of this blow made Lin Kexin frown deeply.
It's not that no attack has no effect. The wave of attacks just now did wipe out all the hundreds of thousands of warships that rushed out from the opponent's first batch.
But the problem is that Lin Kexin did not expect the devastating situation. On the contrary, each of its warships withstood at least five or six attacks before finally being destroyed.
This is very unusual.
That's right, not normal at all!
You know, now Dauntless Fleet has fully applied the technology of Ninth Order Civilization after the replacement.
Compared with its previous generation Dauntless-class Warship, the biggest difference is that the ninth-level civilization has developed the application of Dark Energy to a certain extent. Even if it is not stimulated by Dark Energy Manipulator, it can successfully use the attack and defense methods of Dark Energy with the power of science and technology alone.
Of course, there is still a gap compared to Dark Energy Manipulator directly. After all, there is no federal Dark Energy Auxiliary Computing Device, and without the help of Dark Energy Manipulator, we can only write a fixed calculation program in the device in advance.
In other words, it is impossible to use the auxiliary calculation device to choose different attack methods according to different situations like the Federation's Dark Energy Manipulator.
But even so, this is still a real Dark Energy attack, but the opponent can withstand at least five or six rounds before being destroyed. How can this not surprise Lin Kexin?
"Commander, according to data analysis, the shield of the opponent's warship is the same as ours Dark Energy Shield!"
"In other words, the other party is Ninth Order Civilization?"
Hearing this, Lin Kexin's brows furrowed even deeper.
