The Combined Battleship has many benefits; it conserves energy when flying together, and is more flexible in configuration during combat. However, it requires extrely high standards for the materials and craftsmanship of the warships.
After research, the Douluo Federation ultimately rejected the direction of Combined Battleships. The cost was too exorbitant, and the sa materials could yield greater returns when used to manufacture mothership-level warships.
However, the Celestial Harmony Clan’s warships turned out to be these costly Combined Battleships! No wonder all their warships have a uniform pattern; they can split off smaller warships by themselves.
These hundreds of split-off warships, which are smaller than teor-Class Attack Ships but larger than Reconnaissance Ships, quickly dispersed, deploying across the surrounding star field and protecting the dozens of Celestial Harmony Battleships that had noticeably shrunk to a smaller size. Clearly, they were acting as outer guards.
In the next mont, the front end of the Celestial Harmony Battleship began to slowly crack open, revealing a gigantic artillery muzzle at the triangular tip, blue and white light shimring within, with the muzzles of five warships noticeably brightening.
Goodness, the main cannon is charging!
Lan Xuanyu led his people to run even faster. Attacking the Deep Red Realm directly with warship artillery—could the Deep Red Realm absorb such a level of energy?
At this point, the Deep Red Realm on the Celestial Harmony Star seed to have sensed the threat from space as well. The spindle-shaped Deep Red Realm began to rapidly transform, shrinking to a third of its original size, changing from spindle-shaped to a shield shape with a deep surface, ceasing the emission of Deep Red Realm entities while those that had been released continued to attack in all directions. The strong ones from the Deep Red Realm returned quickly inside, disappearing within.
"Buzz——"
The air vibrated intensely. In space, five full blue-white beams descended from the sky, piercing through the atmosphere almost instantly, rapidly arriving. They ferociously bombarded the Deep Red Realm.
Everyone stared at this scene. Using warship artillery to bombard a planet is extrely rare in the universe. Especially, when bombarding one’s own planet—it can be imagined how furious the leaders of the Celestial Harmony Star must be at this mont.
The imperial palace, an inheritance of thousands of years, was destroyed, causing heavy casualties, with the planet’s life force being devoured by the enemy. This is what led them to initiate bombardnt against their own planet at any cost.
"Boom——" On the surface of the Deep Red Realm, large waves of deep red ripples spread out as five massive, over one hundred ters in diater blue-white light columns blasted into the Deep Red Realm, erupting with dazzling brilliance.
Everyone watching held their breath. Whether the warship’s attack could generate destruction and impact on the Deep Red Realm was crucial for this war.
The shield-like state of the Deep Red Realm noticeably shrunk a little, and the next mont, nurous depressions seed to appear on the surface of the Deep Red Realm. These depressions transford into vortices, crazily absorbing the energy of the blue-white artillery fire. The Deep Red Realm seed to brightened a bit as a result.
The entire process lasted for several seconds. The ground trembled, the air quivered, while the main cannon’s power gradually dissipated.
The Deep Red Realm returned to calm, appearing as if nothing happened. However, if sensed through divine consciousness, it would be found that the deep red spreading across the ground stopped at this mont.
Inside the Deep Red Realm, energy waves seed to surge, with distinctly intense fluctuations.
Is this? Indigestion? This was the first thought that ca to Lan Xuanyu’s mind. Judging by the energy intensity, the power of the Celestial Harmony Battleship’s main cannon was extrely fearso, definitely not inferior to the main cannon power of the Douluo Federation Fleet. Such explosive energy was extrely intense, seemingly even the Deep Red Realm couldn’t instantly devour it.
Looking down from space, it was naturally ascertainable that the expansion of the Deep Red Realm had halted. In other words, the attack just now had a certain effect.
In the next instant, in space, the main cannons of ten Celestial Harmony Battleships began charging, with the second wave of double attacks quickly approaching.
However, at this very mont, suddenly intense red light blossod within the Deep Red Realm, followed by gigantic deep red beams shooting forth, heading straight for space.
Counterattack?
The Tianhe Fleet reacted extrely swiftly; evidently, this was a fleet with excellent training fundantals. Those smaller Celestial Harmony warships that were no longer on the periphery quickly emitted blue light rays, weaving into a massive light net in mid-air, blocking in front of the Celestial Harmony Battleships.
The dark red beams entering space were imdiately intercepted by these light nets upon impact.
However, these dark red beams did not dissipate upon collision with the light nets but transford into giant beasts, each over a kiloter in length, viciously tearing at the lights.
These beasts appeared extrely ferocious and fearso. With bodies exceeding a kiloter in length, resembling gigantic centipedes with many tentacles, the most terrifying feature being the pair of mouthparts at the front, about a hundred ters long, extrely sharp. They could even bite through the energy-ford light net.
These Centipede Giant Beasts were also spewing dense dark red mist, surprisingly possessing energy-corroding effects. Over thirty Centipede Giant Beasts were instantly spewed into space, frenziedly tearing, threatening the defensive light net to potentially fail.
Of course, the Tianhe Fleet wouldn’t just watch the other side breakthrough; a cascade of blue-white artillery fire erupted, launching attacks on the Centipede Giant Beasts.
However, these Centipede Giant Beasts were cunning, opening their backs to reveal six pairs of wings, swiftly flying in space with impressive predictive capabilities, evading most attacks. They continuously launched assaults on the periphery of the Tianhe Fleet.
These Centipede Giant Beasts hadn’t appeared in previous wars without a doubt, a brand new species of the Deep Red Realm.
They were practically akin to warships in terms of existence, from Lan Xuanyu’s perspective, they were essentially Ecological Warships! And they even possessed self-awareness.
Nevertheless, in terms of quantity, it’s ultimately the Tianhe Fleet who had more. Over a hundred warships had already been mobilized, so engaging the Giant Centipedes while the others poured artillery downward, continuing to attack the Deep Red Realm.
For a mont, artillery fire filled the sky. Trendous energy fluctuations made the surface of the Celestial Harmony Star violently restless. The Deep Red Realm for the first ti exhibited signs of struggling.
Soon it could be seen that the Deep Red Realm did not absorb all the artillery fire descending from the sky; so were absorbed, while others were blocked outside by the realm itself, erupting with massive energy fluctuations. Clearly, such explosive energy couldn’t be entirely devoured by the Deep Red Realm, at least not in the short term.
The massive Centipedes in space were indeed powerful in combat, but their key advantage was extre agility. The red mist they spewed even possessed the ability to refract light, preventing the artillery fire of the Celestial Harmony Battleship from concentrating on them.
Yet, the strength demonstrated by the Celestial Harmony Battleship far surpassed those previous warships of the Dragon Horse Federation. This is undoubtedly the strongest fleet currently in the Dragon Horse Federation. Its formidable firepower temporarily suppressed the Deep Red Realm. Although the Giant Centipedes haven’t been defeated, they couldn’t manage to penetrate the defense periter of the Tianhe Fleet either. For the mont, both sides were locked in a stalemate.
Lan Xuanyu and the others were now at a far distance, able to clearly observe the current combat situation. The strength of the Tianhe Fleet left a profound impression on them. To deal with such a fleet, the Douluo Federation would need at least two Cosmic Fleets to possibly restrain it, three Cosmic Fleets to have greater assurance of defeating it, but annihilating them all would probably be challenging. This is even under mothership suppression.
