Killing Intent from Behind

Even with more than half its power weakened, the Focused Dark Energy Cannon remained terrifyingly powerful.

The other Seventh Order Leader-class creatures that had already arrived at Lawell had all focused their attention on this clash between spear and shield.

Not even Douglas noticed in time.

The anomaly occurring several AU behind him!

At a distance of roughly 5.5 AU, directly aligned with Hegg and Lin Yu in a straight line, a massive vortex-like azure Hyperspace Window had opened.

This time, what emerged from it was not Zero-Point Missiles, but a warship—a warship without any conventional weapons.

It was one of the Federation's strategic superweapons: the Zero-Point Bomb Carrier.

It was a Star System-level strategic superweapon created by exploiting the fact that operating Warp Drive Engines beyond capacity in an environment where Zero-Point Particle concentration exceeded 95% would trigger spatial turbulence.

Its greatest feature was its sustained spatial turbulence effect. As the final strike of Operation Four, it was practically a weapon tailor-made for the task.

Throughout the entire operation, every attack had been seamlessly linked to the next, leaving no time to waste.

Therefore, the instant the Zero-Point Bomb Carrier exited hyperspace, it had already begun its detonation sequence.

Inside a massive chamber that occupied nearly half the warship's interior, over a hundred Zero-Point Energy Crystals began continuously releasing the Zero-Point Particles stored within them. The concentration of Zero-Point Particles throughout the chamber rapidly rose.

33%

72%

96%

In just a few seconds, the concentration had surpassed 95%, reaching 98.5%. Immediately afterward, all ten Warp Drive Engines within the chamber activated in overload mode.

Alarms instantly filled the entire ship, though the vessel was completely empty and no one was there to hear them.

Of course, simply activating the Warp Drive Engines was not enough to complete
