"Commander, we found a large number of fleets mobilizing behind the enemy's defense line, and it is suspected that a second line of defense is being deployed!"
Seran In the bridge, Chief Radar Officer suddenly reported loudly.
Upon hearing this, Aierfei immediately controlled the dynamic model of the battlefield in front of him and zoomed in on the area behind the coalition's defense line.
As Chief Radar Officer reported, trillions of warships are being mobilized rapidly, and judging from their action patterns, they are indeed deploying a second line of defense.
Just
Unlike the extremely loose first line of defense, the second line of defense is obviously deployed in a thick way.
Although the same number of warships is used, after using such a thick formation, it can only cover a not very large area.
However, since Federal Fleet only made a small breakthrough in the first line of defense, Lavoisier does not need to deploy such a long line of defense. It only needs to gather the fleet behind the hole where the first line of defense was torn.
"His goal is not defense, but because we chose to use a quick attack with point-breaking planes to completely block us with a new and thick defense line, and cooperate with the original defense line to form a pincer attack on our fleet!"
"And once we are delayed, the three trillion warships around us will swarm in and completely surround us."
"If the war situation really turns out to be like that, then even if we still win in the end, we will still pay a certain price!"
"This response is really fast and precise!"
Looking at the fleet movements behind the coalition's defense line in the battlefield dynamic model, Aierfei quickly guessed the purpose of Lavoisier.
"Commander, if this continues, we will be exposed to those fleets immediately after breaking through the defense line. And even though we have Dark Energy Shield, we are not invincible after all. In the end, we will pay a high price!"
"It doesn't matter, just punch him through before they complete the deployment!"
"Before their deployment is complete?"
The adjutant was a little confused. After all, she had just calculated that when the opponent's deployment was completed, her own fleet would not have enough time to completely break through the first line of defense.
It's not that the firepower is not good, but simply the speed is not.
After all, without Hyperspace Engine and the Stargate, the federal warships can only rely on Sub-light Speed Travel, and this speed is obviously unable to support the idea.
There is actually nothing wrong with the adjutant's idea. If Near-light Speed Engine is not affected by the image of Time Dilation, the seventh battle speed in the federal speed standard is already the maximum speed. If it is raised higher, the Time Dilation effect will inevitably occur.
It will take at least 15 minutes to break through the opponent's defense line at the seventh battle speed. However, according to calculations, the fleet behind the opponent's defense line can be mobilized in about 10 minutes to complete the second line of defense.
Originally
That's right.
But
The adjutant seemed to have forgotten one thing.
The seventh battle speed has never been the Federal Fleet's ultimate speed at sub-light speed. As early as the early days of the war with the Zerg, humans already had the technology to travel up to 0.99 times the speed of light, and could completely offset the Time Dilation effect produced at this speed.
However, in the past few decades, human opponents have almost no means of limiting Hyperspace Navigation, which also makes the battle speed above level seven useless.
After all, no matter how fast the sub-light speed is, it is still just the sub-light speed.
In terms of single-wheel speed and efficiency, it is not even qualified to carry shoes for hyperspace and space teleportation.
However, at a time when hyperspace and space teleportation are restricted, the speed above level seven will obviously become the key to the outcome of this war.
"Start Time Dilation Countermeasure Device immediately. Thirty seconds later, the entire fleet will accelerate to Ninth War Speed!"
"Yes, Commander!"
While responding, the adjutant finally remembered the device that had never been used since Elf Fleet was formed.
That's right, I have forgotten the fact that with the help of that device, the battleship Federal Fleet can not be affected by the image of Time Dilation and accelerate to Ninth War Speed!
In fact, the first person to use this technology was the Federation's Assault Ship, which was a special type of unmanned ship used on the Vita Defense Line of Mels Star Cluster when fighting against the Zerg.
Since then, although this technology has remained a standard feature of every generation of general-purpose warships, it has never been used again.
In the void, the entire fleet suddenly began to accelerate, and the body of the battleship was being stretched, at least.
From the outside, this is the visual effect.
"The fleet speed has reached the eighth battle speed, currently 0.5 times the speed of light, and continues to accelerate!"
"0.6 times the speed of light. 0.7 times the speed of light. 0.8 times the speed of light. 0.9 times the speed of light."
"Commander, the fleet has accelerated to Ninth War Speed. The current speed is 0.99 times the speed of light. Time Dilation Countermeasure Device is operating normally!"
"The estimated time to completely break through the local first line of defense is 168 seconds!"
After the fleet accelerated for a minute, the adjutant looked at the data on Virtual Interface in front of him, turned around and reported to Aierfei.
This scene was also captured by the coalition forces.
The entire Virtual Combat Room was in complete chaos at this moment!
"How is that possible? The data must be wrong. Please measure again!"
"This is already the third time!"
"No, I don't believe it, it's simply impossible!"
"Yes, if they really reached this speed, why didn't the Time Dilation effect appear?"
"This simply violates basic laws!"
"Yes, I believe our measuring equipment is malfunctioning!"
The hall was extremely noisy.
Really.
The Federation's current speed scares them!
In fact, it has been captured here since Federal Fleet first started accelerating.
But the problem is that this should have exceeded the safe speed range. Logically speaking, Federal Fleet should have fallen into the effect of Time Dilation.
All of this is beyond their comprehension!
"Quiet!"
Looking at the increasingly chaotic war room, Lavoisier shouted loudly.
"Now it's not a question of whether you believe it or not, but the human fleet did this!"
"According to the latest calculations, humans will break through our first line of defense in less than three minutes."
"As for the second line of defense we are deploying, it will be directly penetrated by the human fleet before the deployment is completed."
"Eventually, our flagship will be directly exposed to the opponent's fleet!"
"All this."
"It can't be stopped!"
