"Hmph, if you can still break through this, then I really should suspect that the Zilun Empire sold us fake goods!"
Celt's disdainful voice came from Warstar's command room.
"Main cannon 20% charged. Estimated time to complete charging is seven seconds!"
"Very good. Charge complete. Immediately fire. Position 112-6145!"
"Yes, Great General. Charge 35% … Great General, detected that the human fleet in front of us is constructing a dark energy array!"
"Damn it, so that's what they were planning!"
Hearing his subordinate's report, Celt immediately understood what the other side was planning. They wanted to seamlessly link the attacks of different fleets so that he would not have any gaps in his attacks.
But even if you're doing your best to limit my attacks, have you forgotten something else?
"Stop charging the main cannon and adjust all the dark energy channels. Maintain the energy supply of the dark energy shield!
"At the same time, tell the fleet to ignore us and focus on attacking the human defense line!"
Celt waved his right hand as he loudly ordered, his eyes cold.
Putting aside whether or not they could break through Warstar's dark energy shield, the surrounding Class 9 warships might be able to maintain this constant barrage of attacks, but how many times could the fleet in front of them that relied on dark energy users to attack?
Although a rank 9 warship had many weaknesses compared to a warship driven by a dark energy user, there was one thing that the latter couldn't compare to. No, it should be said that when a dark energy user hadn't reached rank 9, which was the Federation's S-level dark energy user, it would be far weaker than a rank 9 warship.
That was their endurance in battle!
For the warships of a Class 9 technological civilization, as long as the dark energy in the warship was not depleted, they could continue to fight.
However, the Netherworld Battleship was different. Because its attacks were completely driven by the Dark Energy Host, before the Dark Energy Host's life level evolved, every attack would consume a part of his spiritual power. Once his spiritual power was exhausted, he would temporarily be unable to control the Dark Energy.
This was why the Federation's dark energy users had increased tenfold over the past fifteen years, but the Netherworld Fleet was still only one billion warships.
After all, with the average rank of the Federation's dark energy users, there were still too many limitations in controlling the Netherworld warships. It was not suitable for large-scale battles, so it was not suitable to expand the fleet on a large scale.
Apart from that, there was another extremely important point.
Since the humans had focused all their attacks on Warstar, that meant …
The fleets under his command would not be suppressed by firepower for the time being, and after they were no longer suppressed, they would be able to gather a large number of warships in a short period of time by relying on the endless reinforcements that would appear from the ocean currents!
When that time came, it would be extremely easy to tear through the human's defense line!
With a sneer, Wayerth looked at the virtual tactical board in front of him again. At this moment, Sareth's fleet was no longer blocked by the firepower of the Federation's fleet and had begun to attack without restraint.
Although there were less than ten million warships, it was enough to pose a fatal threat to the Federation's warships.
Most importantly, as time passed, as Sareth's fleet continued to emerge from the ocean currents, and as more and more fleets gathered at the bridgehead, the battle might instantly collapse.
Of course, it wasn't that Lin Kexin and Wang Hai didn't understand this logic, but they had no choice!
Deputy Commander Ziling hadn't arrived yet, and he couldn't break through the defenses of the warstar, so he only had two choices.
He could continue suppressing the ordinary fleets at the entrance of the ocean currents and allow the warstar to slaughter as it pleased.
Or he could give up on suppressing the ordinary fleets and focus on suppressing the warstar. However, the result would be that the Sareth fleet would be able to launch a reckless counterattack.
No matter which choice he made, the Federation's fleet would have to pay a significant price.
However, this was how commanders on the battlefield were. Just as Lin Fan often said, fleet commanders, to put it more bluntly, were constantly making choices between various numbers, choosing the one with the least sacrifice.
This might sound very callous and heartless, but it was one of the necessary conditions for a qualified commander.
As the saying went …
The merciful could not command an army.
Just as the three Underworld Legions attacked Celt's planet, the Seras Empire's fleet, which had gathered more than nine million warships, attacked Fearless at the same time.
Logically speaking, the fleet of the Seras Empire should attack the weakest elven and angel fleets first. But when Lin Kexin and Wang Hai decided on the battle plan, they had already gotten these two fleets to retreat and hide behind the Fearless fleet for the time being.
After all, the angel and elven fleets could only use spatial attacks. Even if they joined in on the warstar, it would be useless. On the other hand, they had almost no resistance to the dark energy attacks of the Sareth fleet.
Moreover, before the battle was over, there was no need for enough battleships to block the firepower of the Ocean Passage. In that case, there was no point for the angel and elven fleets to stay where they were. It was better to let them retreat for the time being.
Although losses were unavoidable, meaningless sacrifice was a very stupid thing to do!
After the first exchange of attacks, Celt's warstar still stood in the void, while tens of thousands of fireballs appeared in the direction of Fearless.
Explosions …
Explosions were happening everywhere on the defensive line.
It had to be known that even after three days of high-intensity confrontation, Fearless had only lost more than a hundred thousand warships.
However, at this moment, just one wave of attacks had cost them tens of thousands, and this was under the premise that the other party only had nine million warships. As the Sareth Empire's warships increased, the more time passed, the more the losses would multiply.
In the following time, it was as if the offense and defense had completely reversed.
For three whole minutes, the Sareth fleet did not lose a single warship, but Fearless had lost more than a million warships, ten times more than the total losses of the previous three days. It was definitely the greatest tragedy since the establishment of Fearless.

"Admiral, the number of warships gathered has reached twenty-two million!"
"Very good. Keep it up. Inform me when it reaches a hundred million warships!"
"Yes, Admiral!"
Celt was very satisfied with this result. Everything was as he had expected.
If this continued, it would not take long for him to completely tear these human fleets apart.
When that time comes, I will definitely capture those dark energy users and study them properly!
"Admiral, a huge dark energy array reaction has appeared in 117,3410 direction. The level … the level is estimated to be … level ten!"
"That's impossible!"
Hearing this, Sartre's expression changed drastically.
