"Although I'm not good at commanding operations, I think the search for Shield World can be put aside for now.
After all, without our human authority, even if the Covenant finds Shield World first, they will not be able to activate the Forerunner's weapons.
So I think our first task now is to repel and defeat the two Super Aircraft Carrier Fleet mentioned by Saum.
Winning the first battle is crucial, and we still need to wait until First Fleet arrives, and spend a certain amount of time cultivating and breeding Xenos to deal with the Flood on Shield World.
What do you think? William."
"Well..." After hearing Halsey's proposal, William had no reason to refuse, and then nodded:
"What you said makes sense. If we defeat two Super Aircraft Carrier and a fleet of a thousand battleships, we will indeed gain an advantage in this war.
Moreover, we can also capture a large number of elites and use them to incite the internal forces of the Star Alliance.
But...
In order to ensure the absolute advantage in combat, Ivan and I will drive the divine body to fight together, I hope you won't mind."
Having said that, William definitely feels a little sorry for Halsey.
She had promised her long ago that she would never go to the front line, but who knew that she had not been idle at all in recent years. When attacking Yuri, Terminator and Mimicry...
He is the boss who enjoys it the most.
"Haha." Hearing this, Halsey suddenly laughed and said nonchalantly:
"What do I care about? Now the company and UNSC need you to boost morale. Ivan, that kid also needs to gain higher prestige. I also agree that you and your son will go into battle together.
Besides..." As she spoke, Halsey looked at Arthur who was sleeping soundly in her arms and said:
"Besides, the Russell Family now has an additional male son. Even if something happens to you and Ivan, the Russell family will not be divorced."
"Uh..." After hearing Halsey's words, William suddenly no longer felt any guilt, and even complained:
"Although what you said is true, it still feels a little unlucky? Hey..."
"Okay, don't complain about anything. Go wash up and go to bed quickly to get enough energy to face the battle in the near future." Halsey said softly.
"Hmm."
Time: September 27, 2026.
Atlantic O'clock:11:27.
Position: Epsilon Indian System, Giant Gas Planet, within the gravitational range of el3.
Just look at Phoenix-class, Rodger Yang-class, Paris-class and battleships, as well as the huge Warship group composed of various supply ships, small battleships and ships, which are moored on the side of el3 facing the star.
Among this mixed fleet of nearly 900 warships, the most prominent one is Infinity-class Flagship, and the Star Killer-class Flagship located in the center of the fleet.
Twenty-two of the mixed fleets are from UNSC, and from Umbrella's side are No. 0 and Fifth Fleet.
First Fleet arrived at Bountiful Star's low-Earth orbit on the 26th, and was responsible for guarding Bountiful Star according to William's orders, and asked the 049 team to cultivate the Xenos army as soon as possible.
And...
Among the mixed Warship group, there are also dense spots that reflect the light under the light of el Star.
Get closer.
It was discovered that there were a huge number of carrier-based aircraft, with numerous models of various types.
Among them, One-eyed MS unit accounts for a quarter of the number of carrier-based aircraft.
Most of the models and coatings of these aircraft bodies are dark green, and some special models are painted dark black or dark gray.
The one-eyed MS is the Zaku-type MS originally designed by Umbrella for UNSC.
There are also a few of them that, in William's eyes, look like Sinanju and Sazabi's machines.
These special bodies are actually models customized by UNSC from the Hive and Umbrella Hafa Armory.
The special one-eyed airframes are all exclusive airframes provided by UNSC for ace pilots. Their performance is superior to that of Normal Strike and Zaku.
Most of the MS gathered in the Zeroth and Fifth Fleet are air-mounted, gun-mounted and Sword Strike, but there are also a few special models.
The paintings of these aircraft are all changed according to the preferences of the ace pilots. Their appearance is similar to that of the Strike, but their backpacks are different.
There are many ms that resemble the models of Divine Will, Akatsuki, Justice and Freedom.
Counting various types of MS, the total number of carrier-based aircraft is close to about 18,000.
In terms of quantity, it is definitely smaller than the swarm-like carrier-based aircraft of the Covenant, but in terms of quality, it does surpass the existence of Covenant Carrier-based aircraft.
As for the absolute ace on the human side, God Body Squad is not among them.
Just when humanity is ready...
Whoosh!
More than a thousand Dark Purple Vortex of different sizes suddenly appeared 0.5 etm in front of human Warship group.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of silver and purple painted warships sailed out of these purple Vortex Tunnel, appearing within the sight of human Warship group.
This is the Covenant Fleet headed by two COS-class Super Aircraft Carrier.
Their appearance also means that the Covenant has launched a comprehensive war against the human territory.
And this fleet with two COS-class Super Aircraft Carrier, according to Saum, is the main force of the Covenant to defeat humanity.
As the most eye-catching COS-class, it has naturally been observed by humans.
COS-class is painted bright silver and is about five kilometers longer than the human Star Killer-class.
Figure
However, COS-class gives people a direct impression of being top-heavy. It is indeed a Super Aircraft Carrier, but it does not look like a Super Battleship.
Somewhat loose.
It is not as compact as the human Star Killer-class, and there are two eye-catching Mag Electromagnetic Cannon muzzles on both sides of the bow of the Star Killer-class.
After Covenant Fleet completed its jump voyage, it maintained a distance of 0.5 etm from human Warship group, without approaching or actively launching an attack.
The same goes for human Warship group, as if they are observing each other.
At the same time.
Inside the hangar of Star Killer-class.
Plasma Airlock has been deployed, and there are only a few Combat Carrier-based Aircraft in the hangar. The remaining ones are transport aircraft, Transport Boat, and armored units on the ground.
Located in the center of the hangar, it is the area where the divine body is parked, repaired and supplied.
I saw twenty-one divine bodies ready to go.
Fourteen of them are John and other Spartan-I Specialized, five are Carter's Noble Team, and the other two are Special Equipment and Painted Specialized Units.
Among them, the one with the strongest comprehensive ability is Ivan's Red God Body.
At this time, God Body Squad was walking on Hangar Deck and came to Plasma Airlock Edge, as if waiting for the order from William to dispatch.
Within Specialized God Body Cockpit.
William, wearing Tight Fitting Flight Suit, is holding the control rod with both hands, looking at the universe outside the valve through Panoramic screen.
At this time, Serena stood on the console in the appearance of Solid Imaging and reported to William:
"Boss, the commander of the Star Alliance is trying to contact us. It seems that he wants to issue a pre-war declaration."
