Chapter 364 Soldiers on a dangerous road
"...Phew, after listening to the report again, I still feel depressed...I didn't expect that even though we have tried our best to develop, there is still such a big gap with them..."
A senior executive of the "exiles" was a little sad after hearing the report. His position covered part of the scientific research position, and he knew how much the scientists in his civilization forgot to eat and sleep, and how much they wanted to contribute to the war.
Many of them have undergone extreme genetic modification at the cost of shortening their lifespan. While destroying the "perfection" of their bodies, they have greatly improved their work efficiency. To leave the brain to the cloned body and continue to work on its own field in another way.
However, the "Operation Annihilation" planned this time dealt them a heavy blow directly. Seventeen thousand of their most advanced warships and more than three million elite fighters were all destroyed by the "Hunters" in a very short period of time If the fleet of the "Silent Empire" hadn't arrived in time, the remaining troops would have been buried in this operation.
The enemies they planned to destroy were just dozens of "hunting warships", nearly a thousand times the number of the opponent, but they were easily destroyed by the opponent like chopping melons and vegetables, and they did not eliminate any enemy.
Even if they knew that there was a big gap between them and the opponent, this result would almost make some soldiers who participated in the war collapse, and had to start actively managing the secretion of emotional hormones.
Until now, this high-ranking officer dared not tell his scientific research subordinates the news, and the soldiers who collapsed were enough.
"...Think about it better, at least this time it proves that our struggle of more than three million years is actually a joke, the other party just wants to have some fun from us because they are trapped here and bored..."
There are also high-level executives who have become very depressed since this battle, as if their beliefs have collapsed. If they were not mentally strong, they would have committed suicide long ago.
"This is what you want to think better? Don't be so negative, at least we still have the 'Silent Empire', don't we?"
The words of a certain person rekindled the hope in everyone's hearts. The mysterious arrival of the "Silent Empire" has indeed shown a powerful combat power beyond imagination.
They didn't know when this civilization appeared in this galaxy. The other party's state of complete "silence" and hardly sending out any signals made it take them a long time to realize that there were people here except them and the "Hunter" "A third-party civilization other than ".
They are instinctively vigilant against this kind of "alien civilization". After all, with the "hunter" as a lesson, they take it for granted that the other party is also an invader. After all, who would enter this "closed" galaxy in idleness.
Although how the "Silent Empire" entered here is a mystery to them, this does not prevent them from counting the "Silent Empire" as the invader.
So for a long time, they also regarded the "Silent Empire" as a threat, and the star field where the other party was located was just outside the "Hell Defense Line", and they were simply included in the attack targets.
Later, they discovered that the "Silent Empire" had fought with the "Hunter", and there were victories and losses in the observable records, which changed their attitude a little.
But it hasn't changed too much, it just changed to an attitude of wishing that they would bite dogs and die together. They no longer regard the "Silent Empire" as an imaginary enemy, but are planning how to play a game of driving tigers and wolfs away, so that The two invaders lost both.
Until a certain time later, when they intercepted a "stalker" of the "hunter" near the "hell defense line", they encountered a warship of the "silent empire".
The other party ignored them, but aimed directly at the "stalker" and destroyed the other party.
Even if their fire control weapons had locked onto the fleet of the "Silent Empire" and were ready to fire, the other party ignored them and walked away.
They don't know if it's because the opponent doesn't see them as an enemy, or if they simply don't see their weapons as a threat.
And this time the "three-party exchange of fire" is said to be three parties, but they are actually attacking the "Hunter" together with the "Silent Empire".
It's just that the result is quite touching. They were seriously injured. In fact, only the "Silent Empire" was fighting against the "Hunter".
According to their observations, "Silent Empire" and "Hunter" are now roughly evenly matched.
The battleship of "Hunter" seems to have incredible performance. In their opinion, that performance should not be the level that the physical world can exist at all, but the opponent has achieved it.
They even managed to obtain the wreckage of the "Hunter" battleship in an attempt to reverse-engineer the other party's powerful secrets, but were told by scientists that the armor that could withstand the impact of stars was just an ordinary alloy plate in their hands, and there was nothing special about it. .
Their scientists were also very difficult to understand, and finally attributed all this to a secret they knew-"circulation technology".
These scientists believe that the technological cycle carried out by the "Hunter" may have reached an unimaginable level. Even a weapon from the indigenous era can exert the power of a star warship in their hands.
In this regard, these high-level "exiles" can only be helpless.
Because this is a height that they cannot reach, even if they know the secret of "circulation technology", they still lack some key points, and the "circulation" they can carry out is very limited.
However, their "temporary alliance" - the Silent Empire, can cause very significant damage and threats to such "hunters".
The weapons of this civilization exhibit a "rule-breaking" property in the observed samples they hold.
This feature directly distorts the surface physics of those "Hunter" warships. No matter how powerful the shield and armor are, they are as good as paper in front of this weapon.
At the most extreme time, they even saw that this weapon destroyed the structure of space, directly turning a "Hunter" warship into an irregular polyhedron.
Even if the strange pure energy warships of the "Silent Empire" seem to be inferior to the "Hunter" warships in terms of performance, they can still cause fatal damage to the opponent with powerful weapons.
So until now, the two civilizations have been evenly matched.
After discussing the "tripartite exchange of fire", these high-level officials couldn't help but fell silent, and began to test each other with probing eyes, as if hesitating to speak.
Until one of them couldn't help but said: "...This time the 'Operation Annihilation' has proved that even if we have worked hard for so long, we are definitely not the opponent of the 'Hunter'..."
"...Perhaps, we should consider that proposal... That civilization that seems to be 'looking' everywhere, tells us the way..."
All the high-level officials were silent again, but they seemed to acquiesce in this matter.
Finally, a top-secret project was approved.
The specific content of this project is unknown, but the destination is the starting point of the "Hell's Line", the "Great Wound" galaxy.
—A very special galaxy.
