The war ca faster than expected.
Although the Freedom Front fleet had been careful and concealed when they set off, the sheer size of the force made it difficult to stay hidden for long, and soon enough, traces of them were detected by radium’s ubiquitous quantum network.
Radium did not allow the human forces to bring the battle near Earth and imdiately called for reinforcents.
Halfway to Mars, the human fleet was intercepted by radium’s forces!
Radium’s colossal fleet and war fortresses located throughout the Solar System suddenly revealed themselves, converging from all directions to target the four major battleship groups located at Mars, rcury, Venus, and the satellite fleets of Earth and Mars!
The war erupted with a bang.
The dark starry sky was suddenly illuminated by countless barrages of gunfire.
Missiles poured down like torrential rain.
Energy weapon beams intertwined in the void, with the view from Earth resembling four additional small stars in the sky.
Those on the daylit western hemisphere could even see two tiny suns on either side of the real Sun, despite the clear sky not showing any stars.
Those tiny suns were the result of the shocking battles between the rcury and Venus Legions and radium’s fleet!
Humans fought with everything they had, and radium seed to sense its doomsday approaching, also going all-out.
Nora Camp, as per her habit, leaned forward with both hands pressed on the command console, staring intently ahead.
The transparent window in front of her was filled with blinding flashes of explosion after explosion. On either side, there were holographic displays showing the distribution of military forces in a dot matrix star map and tactical command diagram of friendly battleships.
After considering it for no more than five seconds, she began to take action, her hands frantically moving over the virtual keyboard and dragging a series of commands one after another.
In her brainwave monitor, a storm of command instructions shot out.
At the sa ti, she shouted, “Harrison Clark’s judgnt was absolutely right! Radium has dedicated no more than 10% of its computing power to battlefield control! The battleships, war beasts, and micro combat units in front of us are not radium’s main forces but rather its discarded units. The enemy has three tis our troops, but our current battle casualties ratio is one to one!”
On the launching deck, Harrison Clark’s fists tightened, veins throbbing at his temples.
Although the ratio was one to one, only machines were being destroyed on radium’s side, whereas on the human side, not only were battleships and fighters lost, but also the soldiers inside.
However, the elite Eagle Strike Warriors next to him were motivated, with tears welling up in so of their eyes.
“What! One to one!”
“That’s great, so great!”
“My goodness! I never thought this day would co in my life!”
“Yeah, one to one. Twenty years ago, my father participated in the 79th Mars Defense Battle. That ti, we lost over three million battleships, only managing to destroy radium’s less than a million discarded units.”
“Sigh.”
“Why sigh? Didn’t you hear that we are now one to one? Our goal isn’t to annihilate the enemy. As long as our heavy battleship group reaches Earth’s vicinity, we will have achieved our objective!”
“Right!”
Everyone raised their gaze, looking at the man standing in the front.
His ultimate-form Hawk Armor was equipped with eight terrifying pseudo-curvature engines, making it look particularly ferocious and deadly.
Needham Brown, who had recovered his body but was unsure about the extent of his regained strength, stood beside Harrison Clark and whispered, “Today, I’m definitely going to kill more war beasts than you.”
Harrison Clark glanced at him and uttered two words, “Dream on.”
“I’m not dreaming. After you rush into the Earth’s core, soone has to block the pursuers behind you, right? Well, sorry, but this task to plug the hole is mine, Needham Brown! So, brother, I’m gonna win today!”
In response, Mitchell from the other side disagreed, “Captain Needham, don’t forget that we have three hundred Special Operations Team warriors here.”
Harrison Clark glared at Mitchell, “Choose a different term. That sounds too ominous.”
Mitchell refused, “Instructor, we really didn’t plan on coming back alive.”
At that mont, Nora Camp’s orders finally arrived.
“The scout teams of the small battleship groups have breached the enemy’s outer defenses! Eagle Strike Warriors, charge! Shred those two war fortresses! Then our entire force will charge through, piercing the explosion clouds of the destroyed war fortresses and heading straight for Earth! Regular Eagle Strike Soldiers who receive the order will hang back and block the pursuit, but once we have reclaid Earth, they must imdiately withdraw and not engage in prolonged combat!”
All of the large battleships’ launch decks below opened with a thunderous sound.
The entire 57 million Eagle Strike Warriors from Mars Base were deployed from their respective ships, almost simultaneously activating their pseudo-curvature engines.
Countless black dots spread across the sky in a dense swarm.
Harrison Clark led the charge, his speed resembling a teor as he aid straight for one of the two colossal pyramid-shaped war fortresses, each towering over a hundred kiloters high.
These war fortresses were far larger than the fortress mothership Harrison had seen when he had previously escaped, looking like two massive planets floating in the air.
From ti to ti, damaged intelligent warships could be seen breaking formation and returning to the war fortresses from various battle lines.
anwhile, a steady stream of brand-new-looking warships of different types erged from another exit of the war fortresses, heading for different battle lines.
These two fortresses were causing significant trouble for the human fleets in their attempt to breach the enemy lines..
