As far as Men of Iron is concerned, as long as it is not completely destroyed, the remains of these Titan Ship are still valuable.

As long as the opponent is eliminated, the ship can be rebuilt directly in a short time, and the loss is almost cheap compared to the materials required to directly rebuild a Titan Ship.

But Iax's most important task at that time was how to defeat the opponent.

This Necrons's Fortress had not even fired yet, and it destroyed three Titan Ships with just its shield. This forced Iax to raise its prediction value and be cautious about the opponent's possible counterattack.

The remaining standard fleets began to spread out over a large area to avoid accidental attacks and reduce damage. At the same time, the fleets accelerated and began to try to rush into Necrons's fleet array to avoid possible large-scale attacks.

At the same time, the remaining twelve Titan Ship no longer use Doomsday Weapon to directly bombard the opponent.

Instead, they began to try to use live ammunition weapons of various calibers to launch strikes.

The Railgun shells weighing several thousand tons were fired at an extremely alarming speed, and the dense Missile lit up countless tiny gleams in the dark background of the universe.

Imperium's difficult-to-control Warp-jump Torpedo is not that complicated in Men of Iron's eyes.

Among the millions of ammunition, there are hundreds of thousands of this special Missile.

The micro Warp jump engine, distributed trajectory calculation component, Quantum Communication chip and basic intelligent control core together constitute these Warp jump Missile.

Among the large number of attack trajectories, these peculiar Missile are not eye-catching.

After breaking away from the hull, these Missile flashed with a slight purple light.

That's the faint light emitted when the miniature Warp jump engine starts working.

These Missile disappeared into Physical Universe almost at the same moment, and then suddenly returned to Physical Universe thousands of kilometers away.

It looks like these Missile are approaching each other quickly as if they are flashing across the universe.

Under the influence of the optical analysis component, Missile's Intelligence Core quickly calculated the distance, and compared the time and the specific distance traveled from the launch to the present Warp Warp, and then disappeared neatly into Warp.

Sudden explosions exploded on the outer structure composed of Living Metal seconds after the attack was launched, and continued for several seconds.

This is not some unique attack method, but because the time in Warp is inherently chaotic. Even a small thing like Missile may encounter some effects of time turbulence the moment it jumps into Warp.

This allows some Missile to flee directly to their destination just after escaping into Warp, while some Missile will be lost in Warp for a long time. It is even possible that they cannot find the preset target after they escape from Physical Universe, and finally simply re-enter Warp to self-destruct.

Of course, most Missile can hit the enemy normally, but there will be a difference of several seconds or even more than ten seconds in time.

In fact, some Missile will have some unexpected effects. They may appear a few minutes later than expected, and then re-attack from behind the enemy with the assistance of Intelligence Core.

But when most Missile jump into Physical Universe for the last time, they are often only a few meters away from their target.

When the explosion occurred, there was even a small half of the projectile that had not completely separated from Warp.

In addition to the high explosives loaded inside, the micro Warp Engine can also bring some additional damage.

However, the strength of Necrons's creation is indeed amazing.

Hundreds of thousands of Missile almost engulfed the opponent, but the opponent's appearance only became bumpy.

And as the strange Necrons Runes continued to flash green energy flow.

The superficial damage is recovering almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Perhaps these Missile suddenly passed through the shield and made the other party feel threatened.

Amazing energy is used on Necron Fortress.

Dense high-energy arcs suddenly erupted in space, detonating all Missiles still in flight.

The energy generated by the simultaneous explosion of millions of Missile with different powers set off a terrible shock wave.

The remaining standard fleet had to accelerate further towards the Necrons fleet to avoid the explosion wave following behind the fleet.

The Necrons fleet did not retreat but took the initiative to approach, relying on its speed advantage to continuously fire in an attempt to defeat these regular-sized ships first.

However, under the cover of the strong light of the explosion.

Half of the remaining twelve Titan Ships have stored energy on Doomsday Weapons.

Before the bright light of the explosion dissipated, Annihilation Cannon's destruction beam enveloped everything except Necrons Space Fortress.

It is almost impossible for these standard fleets to win head-on against the Necrons fleet with Cairn-class Tomb Ship.

Not to mention lagging behind the opponent in terms of technology, in terms of ship size, the Cairn-class Tomb Ship with a diameter of more than 40 kilometers is not comparable to the Cruiser with a diameter of 20 to 30 kilometers and the command ship.

Iax is not sure whether the other party's Cairn-class Tomb Ship will have more C'tan Shard or some other terrible technology.

Therefore, it is also a strategy to use these ships that are destined to be damaged in battle as bait to carry out strikes.

If it were the Imperium force, I'm afraid no one would have the courage to use so many ships as bait to carry out such a fatal mission.

However, Men of Iron only calculates the results of the battle, and only those who win are eligible to calculate the battle losses.

Iax's attack plan worked very well.

When Necrons's fleet was discovered, it was already mixed with Men of Iron Ship's fleet. The stacked ships made it impossible for them to speed away immediately.

Although ships such as Cruiser and Command Flagship in the standard fleet cannot cause enough damage to destroy the Necrons fleet, their thick shields make Necrons have to spend some time to penetrate them.

That's why Annihilation Cannon's impact effect is very good.

The remaining conventional fleets on the battlefield and the entire Necrons fleet were evaporated by the energy flow almost instantly.

Even the Cairn-class Tomb Ship was destroyed together.

Even if Tomb Ship of the same tomb level is affected by different Dynasty, there will be many differences and the intensity will be different.

The diameter of the Cairn-class Tomb Ship that Iax once encountered Sautekh Dynasty Crowned General-Zahndrekh was on was more than fifty kilometers in diameter. The ship even had C'tan Shard as its energy source, and its shield was so strong that it was almost impossible to penetrate.

His car was hit hard by Heart of the Forge and Annihilation Cannon was unscathed. He even severely damaged Heart of the Forge with one shot.

However, the Dynasty in front of Iax obviously does not have enough C'tan Shard to use.

Maybe the C'tan Shard on the Space Fortress is all the Dynasty.

But this behavior immediately angered the remaining Necrons.
