"What wave is this?"

Virtual Combat Room, Altra looked at the news that just came and asked immediately.

"It's the 98th wave!"

"Good guy, a wave of 17 Black Hole Channel, that's a thousand or hundreds of Dark Energy Crystal consumed, and it was in less than five hours?"

After thinking about it in his mind, Altra also felt his scalp numb.

After all, even when Divine Radiance Civilization once controlled Dark Energy Spring, after more than 100,000 years, the reserve amount of crystals was only more than 3,000 pieces.

Look at the consumption of the Sun River Empire.

It seems that guy Amles is also betting, but he picked the wrong target to bet on. Lin Fan told them that even if Sun River Empire opens 10,000 Black Hole Channel, the federation will have enough Dark Energy Crystal reserves to destroy them all!

Involuntarily, Altra began to sympathize with Amles. It is not good for anyone to be an opponent. He must be an opponent of this Dark Energy Crystal federation with extremely unreasonable reserves.

"I think the front line can slow down the attack depending on the situation!"

"The attack is slowing down. Shouldn't we eat up Sun River Empire's remaining fleet as quickly as possible?"

Listening to Lin Fan's sudden proposal, Altra and Rotavis were both a little confused, not knowing what Lin Fan was going to do.

"Don't you think this war of attrition on Dark Energy Crystal reserves should be allowed to last longer?"

"After all, there are not many opportunities like this!"

Hiss.

When Lin Fan said this, the two of them reacted immediately.

This is to continue to trick that guy Amles until most of his Dark Energy Crystal reserves are gone.

In five hours, Sun River Empire 1666 pieces of Dark Energy Crystal were lost, but after all, Sun River Empire had robbed almost all the reserves of the three major Super Civilizations before. Although it was not as exaggerated as the federal reserves, there should still be tens of thousands of them.

In this way, if you want to trick him into investing more Dark Energy Crystal into this war of attrition, then Sun River Empire's fleet on the front line cannot suffer too much loss. Amles probably won't continue to compete. You have to let him see that there is still hope in the front line.

To achieve this, as Lin Fan said, the fleet must slow down its attack and give Sun River Empire's fleet some more time to survive.

"Okay, I'll leave and notify the fleet on the front line!"

Now that he understood Lin Fan's intention, Altra no longer hesitated and nodded directly.

Immediately went to make arrangements.

On the battlefield, Sun River Empire's fleet has been reduced sharply from the initial strength of more than 20 corps to about 12 corps.

In more than a day, half of the fleet has been lost, and the remaining fleet has been beaten to pieces and scattered in star systems to fight on their own.

Originally, judging from this situation, it would be the limit to last another day and a half at most.

But suddenly the fleet on the Alliance side slowed down its attack. Unlike the previous crazy attacks, it became a steady advancement mode.

This made everyone a little surprised

However, two possibilities have been analyzed by the think tank and presented to Amles.

The first is that the alliance is already confident of victory, so it no longer needs crazy attacks with high casualties and time-grabbing attacks, so it turns to a more secure offensive plan with controllable casualties.

Second, the Alliance is confident of achieving final victory in this war of attrition, and wants to prolong the war to allow the Empire to invest more Dark Energy Crystal reserves.

The third is to deliberately create an illusion to make the empire think that the alliance has sufficient reserves to win this war of attrition, thereby forcing the empire to withdraw voluntarily.

It has to be said that not all Super Civilizations are fools. The two results submitted by the chief think tank Korlak are quite accurate.

In itself, Lin Fan considered two aspects when proposing this plan.

Of course, pulling Sun River Empire to continue competing with Dark Energy Crystal is definitely the biggest consideration, but by the way, such an operation can indeed reduce casualties on the alliance's side.

After all, the previous strategy was to completely annihilate all Sun River Empire fleets in the shortest possible time, and this strategy would definitely cost more casualties.

But now, without having to fight for time, you can naturally choose more combat methods that are less costly.

Looking at Korlak's report, Amles is a little uncertain.

Although these are three possibilities, in fact, the first two can also be regarded as the same possibility.

You must know that the first possibility mentioned in the report has a premise, that is, the alliance can completely defeat Sun River Empire in Dark Energy Crystal's war of attrition.

Otherwise, this first possibility would be out of the question.

So, considering that the empire currently has almost 11,000 Dark Energy Crystal in reserve, can it exhaust the alliance first?

Or is it really just like the third possibility, everything is just a game, and the alliance is about to be unable to hold on, so it deliberately acted like this so that the empire can take the initiative to withdraw from this attrition competition?

Amles was a little hesitant at this moment.

"Korlak, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, I think the third option is more likely, and I think the federal reserve of Dark Energy Crystal is likely to come from Alphart Civilization!"

"Alphart Civilization?"

Amles was a little surprised. After all, all the previous speculations were that the Federation had obtained the relics of a certain civilization hundreds of thousands or even millions of years ago.

"Yes, Your Majesty. When we captured Alphart Civilization's homeland, we did not find their Dark Energy Crystal reserves. In addition, humans are a branch of Alphart Civilization."

"Therefore, if our previous inference is correct and Alphart Civilization has indeed left Azure Dragon Universe, then if they want to leave Dark Energy Crystal to anyone before they leave, the most likely person is naturally a human being who is their branch!"

"Although the demand for Dark Energy Crystal after Alphart evolves into Energy Lifeform is very small, no matter how you calculate it, this reserve should not exceed 500,000!"

"Although this amount is indeed terrifying, the consumption on the federal side is also very large. In the previous Nilkenia Super Galaxy Cluster alone, they consumed tens of thousands of Dark Energy Crystal. After that, they transported Mirta Device to the entire universe every day, and the consumption was also not small."

"Finally, humans can improve the level of black cavity data analysis to a level no less than that of our empire in a short period of time. The amount of Dark Energy Crystal consumed is also extremely terrifying, at least not less than 300,000."

"Coupled with the consumption in other aspects, our think tank made a bold calculation. The number of Dark Energy Crystal reserves currently held by humans should be less than 50,000!"

"So, I think the third option is more likely, that is to say"

"The alliance behaves like this deliberately so that we can voluntarily give up this war of attrition."
