The tranquility of the Gliese 555 Stellar System was utterly shattered.

Hundreds of thousands of electromagnetic cannon projectiles hurtled toward the target zone at tremendous speed!

Captured by high-precision cameras, this devastating metal storm swept past planet after planet, racing toward the "visitor from beyond the system"!

Inside the command center of the [Earth].

Lü Yongchang's attention was not on the metal storm unleashed by the Human Fleet.

He stared fixedly at the dark gray spherical probe traveling at 50% of the speed of light in the holographic projection.

Beside the holographic projection was a bright red countdown.

In five minutes, these electromagnetic cannon projectiles, loaded with vast amounts of antimatter, would make contact with the spherical probe!

The point of contact lay right at the edge of the Gliese 555 Stellar System!

This was also the first defensive line established by human civilization!!

At that moment, Lü Yongchang unconsciously clenched his fists, only one thought remaining in his mind.

Don't change course!

Don't change course!!

Because of the electromagnetic cannons' many limitations, if the spherical probe detected the danger and changed course ahead of time, humanity's first defensive line would be nothing more than window dressing.

For human civilization as it stood, this so-called "war" was a situation in which attacking was easy and defending was difficult.

With individual combat capabilities far inferior to their opponent's, the Human Fleet had no choice but to huddle together for protection.

The advanced civilization's probe could attack from any direction, but humanity could only curl up near Dawn Star and defend passively.

Given the spherical probe's demonstrated maneuverability, Lü Yongchang was certain that if it deliberately evaded them, the Human Fleet could exhaust its entire stockpile of electromagnetic cannon ammunition without so much as scratching it.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone
