Shadow Bear Tibbers’ Plane Journey

Chapter 564 ? The Death of the Star Alliance Fleet?

'Zi...'

‘This is Normandy II, please answer if you hear it! '

'Hello? Is anyone here? This is Normandy Two, anyone who hears please answer! Please... zi... Are there still people on Earth? ! '

'Zi...'

‘This is Normandy II, Star Alliance Headquarters, please answer...’

"!!"

"Report! Your Excellency, Admiral, we have just received the communication signal from Normandy II!"

Just as the two generals Anderson and Galen in the interim command center of the Starlink and the Federation were discussing in a corner about summoning the fleet and cooperation related matters in a low voice, while Little Anne, Shepard and Nova were chatting about themselves When talking about the topic, a Star Alliance officer suddenly stood up and reported loudly, successfully attracting everyone's attention.

It's been so long, and it's the first time they've received signals from space other than the Earth-Moon system, so the technical soldier of the Star Alliance and others couldn't help but get a little excited.

"Is it Normandy II?!"

Hearing that his spaceship finally had news, Shepard ran to the communication technology officer's console immediately, and directly pressed the button to connect to the communication:

"Is it Normandy II? I'm Shepard, are you still alive? Great! Please report your current location immediately!"

After pressing the communication button, Shepard quickly explained his identity loudly and started asking!

She was still a little worried at first, afraid that her spaceship and her companions would be blasted into cosmic garbage by those Reaper warships like the Earth's local fleet! Well now, she was finally relieved. Facts have proved that her Normandy II is quite capable of running. No, not long after they quelled the chaos here on Earth, it unexpectedly popped up again.

'Zi...Zi Zi...'

‘Switch image mode... Great, it really is Shepard, you guy! '

‘Are you all right on Earth now? You must be careful, we have seen at least a hundred Reaper warships raid the Earth-Moon defense circle and airborne the Earth before! You must hide well, we will meet you if there is a chance! '

Miranda's profile picture appeared on the holographic screen for the first time, and when she also saw Shepard's face, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Like Shepard, she thought that Shepard and others on Earth had already been wiped out by those menacing reapers!

After all, they also saw the bombardment and raid of the Earth Star Federation headquarters by the Reaper warships, and because of this, they did not dare to enter the earth's atmosphere for the first time and try to rescue their commander.

This matter started a few hours ago...

At that time, when Miranda and others saw the warships of the Reapers suddenly jumping not far from the orbit of the earth, and began to violently launch the first round of onslaught bombardment and raids on the earth's local fleet and moon base that were caught off guard. Afterwards, seeing that the situation was not good, they ordered the Normandy II to enter the stealth state on the spot and sail towards the outer reaches of the solar system at super-light speed, and ran away!

At that time,

They no longer cared about meeting Shepard or observing the specific situation.

Because, just after they left the space port, countless Reaper warships easily defeated the Earth's fleet and almost all space stations... and began to land on the Earth at the same time, bombarding And hunting down the Star Alliance warships who want to escape, there is no plan to give the Star Alliance any reaction time at all!

At that time, anything that dared to resist or stand in the way, including the communication satellites on the earth, was instantly smashed to pieces by the fully fired Reaper warships...

Finally, after crossing the asteroid belt of the solar system, the Normandy 2 ran directly beyond the orbit of Neptune at the fastest speed in one go. After finding that there were no Reapers following them, it stopped in shock and began to sneak Send a signal to the Federation headquarters on Earth.

Of course, they also tried to call their commander Shepard, but when they found that it was displayed on the contact screen, it was a strange, small, hideous robot that could not speak. They thought it was a war weapon of the Reaper, I was so frightened that I immediately interrupted the communication and changed the position of the spacecraft again. Only now did I dare to continue to send signals to the Star Alliance headquarters on Earth.

They subconsciously thought before that: their commander, their Captain Shepard, was killed in another raid by the Reapers! So, now that Miranda sees that Shepard is intact, as the acting captain, she is finally hanging on her heart.

"..."

"Miranda, where are you running to now?"

Hearing that the other party told her to be careful of the reaper... Shepard's cheeks twitched, and she didn't know what to say, so she could only ask the other party with a strange expression on her frown.

She felt that the other party must be far away from the earth, otherwise, wouldn't she say the inexplicable words just now at this time?

'What's the matter, I'm currently hiding in the outer circle of Neptune's orbit, do we need us to meet you and escape? '

'Zi... Oops, the signal is still a bit bad...'

'However, please be patient and wait a little longer. It may take a little longer for us to go back in stealth mode...Because just now, a Reaper chased us for a long time, and we are not sure whether it has given up tracking us……'

Their spaceship is a frigate-class light ship. In the case of one-on-one confrontation, the Normandy II will definitely not be able to handle a Reaper battleship anyway!

Therefore, Miranda felt that they had to be a little more cautious. They could only quietly return to the earth's orbit and find a suitable opportunity to slowly sneak into the earth's atmosphere. The battleship is detected.

It's just that the return time is definitely not as fast as when they escaped desperately. They need to keep sailing silently, and the speed cannot be increased too fast.

"Oh, God……"

"Miranda, come back quickly, there are no reapers here on Earth! In fact, all the reapers in the solar system may have been destroyed by us in the earth's atmosphere... Now, you should come back at full speed, sure There will be no more enemies chasing you."

Shepard looked at the serious Miranda, and then at the nervous companions behind him, she shook her head dumbfoundedly, and stated such a funny fact to the other party .

Although, those Reapers were indeed menacing, and broke through the defense of the Earth's local fleet in an instant and raided to the innermost part of the Earth's atmosphere... Even, they caused the Star Federation to suffer heavy losses before they could react... But, Shepard couldn't figure it out. With the super speed and stealth ability of Normandy II, Miranda and the others wouldn't be able to go directly to the outer orbit of Neptune, right?

Could it be that the Reaper warship that was chasing them was really so fierce that it scared them like that?

'Zi... what did you say? ! '

‘The Reapers who invaded the earth... were all wiped out? How is this possible... Zi... How did you do it? ! '

'Shepard, are you sure you're not joking? We haven't detected any traces of large-scale fleets in the solar system until now. Without the support of large fleets, how could you possibly beat those giant battleships of the Reapers? ! '

Sure enough, after hearing Shepard's words, Miranda exclaimed on the spot.

Of course, she, Miranda, also knew that Shepard had found little Annie's big backer, and also knew that the Star Alliance was going to cooperate and summon the powerful Federation fleet, that is, the fleet of Admiral Galen wearing the strange CMC power armor!

But now, according to the situation detected by their Normandy II: At present, there is no detection signal of any warship except them around the earth or in the solar system! And those reapers have all landed and attacked the earth's mainland. Before there is a large-scale fleet to help, relying on the earth's own military power, there is no doubt that those reapers will be helpless!

"well……"

"I'm not joking, the situation here is a bit complicated, you will know when you come back..."

I won't be able to explain the specifics for a while... So, Shepard didn't plan to explain in detail during the communication, but just signaled the other party to come back quickly and stop hiding outside the orbit of Neptune to make people laugh!

'Although I don't know what happened, I always feel that you are a little weird...but...but, okay, you don't have to make a face at me, I will let the clown turn back at full speed immediately. '

Although she didn't know what the other party was showing off, Miranda quickly nodded after seeing that the other party was indeed fine and a little angry.

'correct! '

'Shepard! Not long ago, when we called you, it turned out to be a weird little robot that connected to your multi-tool? I don't understand, so what's going on? '

Just because of this incident, Miranda, the Clown, and Gareth all thought that Shepard had accidentally died again, and then that all-purpose tool fell into the hands of the enemy! Thinking about it, Miranda herself was sad for a while just now, and she has already accepted the fact that the other party died on earth.

But who ever thought...

Now the other party is still alive and well, and it doesn't look like he has experienced a war at all? !

"This is actually the same thing as what happened just now..."

"Forget it, it's really troublesome to explain. When you come back, you will understand after reading more. I am waiting for your answer at the temporary headquarters of the Star Alliance. That's it, the call is over!"

After finishing speaking, Shepard reached out again and directly closed the communication between the two parties, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Just as the other party was worried about Shepard's life and death, she herself was also worried about her group of partners!

Fortunately, those guys ran very fast, and they ran out of Neptune's orbit in a short time, and successfully got rid of the Reapers. Otherwise, the garbage in space now would probably have a share of Normandy II.

"ha!"

"Today's luck is not bad, not only did we defeat the Reapers and successfully save the earth, even my Normandy II is also fine! You may not know, but I already like my new ship If it is accidentally sunk by the enemy again, I will be very sad!"

"General Galen, I just remembered something..."

"If you want to find your great sword, maybe you can try the CMC armor that calls you?"

After reluctantly showing an ugly smile to other people who were paying attention to the conversation he had just had, Shepard turned around and looked at the federal general who was still holding his strong arms and standing aside, who didn't know what he was thinking, and said something.

She realized something from Miranda's words just now!

That is: Although their equipment has become a Transformer and disappeared, but...they can still get through the communication, as long as they can be contacted, whether it is her Shepard's multi-tool, or Galen It should be easy to get back the big sword that he owns.

"Huh? That's a really good idea!"

"I'll do it right away, I hope that damn robot wasn't killed by the reaper, right?"

There was a punch, and Galen nodded excitedly after he came back to his senses.

If he could find that great sword by himself, he certainly didn't want to beg that damned Optimus Prime! That damn guy must be trying to get rid of Galen's magic weapon for his subordinates, that's what it must be, right?

You must know that the original authentic limited-edition big sword originally produced in the hands of Mrs. Annie Head of State, there are only ten of them in total, and each of them is an heirloom-level existence! Such good properties as tenacity, never wear out, invincibility, etc., that's too much!

That kind of good baby, how could he, Galen, let a robot walk by him casually?

Even if he doesn't really need it now, he can still use his strength, even if he really doesn't want it in the future, he can easily get a big windfall if he sells it!

"Normandy II is still intact, which is indeed good news to celebrate!"

"However, since your ship is still there, it's time to implement another plan..."

"Sorry, Shepard, although I know it's inappropriate to bring it up now, but the time is tight... Therefore, I still feel that it is time for you to continue to complete your mission: to unite all that we humans can unite. Alien races, contact the Citadel and all other support available, help us humans, help our entire galaxy to deal with those evil reapers!!"

"Don't rush to refuse, I know it's hard..."

Seeing that Shepard was about to say something, Anderson quickly reached out and stopped him.

"This is not an order, this is a brazen request from an old guy like me... Shepard, you also know that this is not a war that only us Earthlings participate in, this is a catastrophe sweeping across the entire galaxy..."

"So, Shepard, make good use of your influence, we should give all races a chance to defeat the Reapers, and unite them!"

"Because, giving them a chance is also giving us a chance!"

Hearing that there was nothing wrong with Normandy II, and that it was about to return to Earth, Admiral Anderson hesitated and struggled for a while, although he himself knew that it was a bit too much to make this request now, after all, Shepard I have done too many things, and even sacrificed my life once, but...

He has no other good way now, and the time is tight, so he can only do this!

"But... Anderson, don't we already have reinforcements from the Federation of Heroes? Could it be that we still have no chance of winning?"

"General Galen, don't you think so too?!"

After listening to Anderson's words, Shepard was silent for a while, then frowned, and turned her head to look at Galen who seemed to be thinking about getting back his great sword. She always thought that as long as she waited They will wait for the support of the Grand Fleet from the Federation of Heroes, and they will be sure of winning!

After all, the strength of the Hero Federation ground forces is obvious to all! It can be deduced from this that the strength of their space fleet must also be able to defeat those Reapers!

"This..."

"Theoretically so? But Shepard, you have also seen that if our Lord Head of State hadn't personally fought the battle on Earth, even if we could really defeat the more than one hundred Reaper warships, we would have paid for it." A huge sacrifice and a long time!"

"You know the fighting power of those Reapers yourself, let alone the infantry, they are indeed not our opponents! It's just that their Reaper warships are not easy to deal with... Not only do they have powerful armor, The kinetic energy shield with absolute advantage, even if we are not afraid of them, they are not so easy to deal with!"

Speaking of this, Galen thought about the enemy's intelligence seriously, and then, even he who didn't know much about space battleship combat, shook his head in frustration after the comparison.

Don't look at the fact that those cybertron legions have submerged hundreds of Reaper and warships on the ground in an instant, but they can only fight landing battles. An attack on an astronomical unit must not have the role of their short-legged robots!

"Although the kinetic energy barriers of their reaper warships can be restrained by our warships in the Koprulu sector, they have an absolute advantage that none of us can ignore, that is: their number is really too much. Too much, that is a number that makes me feel a little desperate just thinking about it..."

Their human battleships and the 'Behemoth-class' battlecruisers, and even the latest model imitation mana super battleships, are equipped with the kind of 'Yamato cannons' that are controlled by magnetic fields and stimulated by fusion reactions. What they fire is A beam of fusion energy particles powerful enough to destroy anything!

The only difference between their battleships and battlecruisers is the size of the main gun caliber and the number of barrels... Galen believes that whether it is their battleships, the mothership of the protoss or the Leviathan of the swarm 'Super behemoth, the energy attack launched is enough to deal with the kinetic energy barriers of those reapers!

but……

The number of opponents is a big problem!

"Admiral Anderson, I forgot, how many warships do those Reapers have?"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Galen still gestured to Anderson beside him. To be honest, she has now realized that it is not an easy job for the Federation of Heroes to colonize this alien galaxy.

"According to the previous intelligence, there are almost hundreds of thousands of ships detected in the early stage alone? As for whether there will be more of them in the future, then I don't know..."

After finishing speaking, even Anderson himself couldn't help lowering his head a little dejectedly.

It can be said that he, the admiral of the Star Alliance, is one of the few people with a clear mind. He is not complacent because of the victory here on Earth, nor is he blindly optimistic or confident because of the upcoming reinforcement fleet.

Because he knows that the war between human beings, or the advanced civilized races of the entire galaxy and the Reapers, has just begun! The information obtained from their excavation of the Prothean remains shows that the powerful Prothean race was at least several centuries older than the Reapers in the end! In that long and bloody genocide war, there is no doubt that the Protheans lost... Even if they actively absorbed countless races and established a huge empire, even if they made preparations in advance, they still lost up...

Therefore, now they have their new reincarnation of the Citadel Council and various galactic advanced civilized races. If they can't defeat those reapers, in the end, all of them will still end up in the same fate as the Proxian Empire, and all higher civilizations that know the existence of reapers will be wiped out until they are completely annihilated in the dust of time , Waiting for the new lives of the next reincarnation to dig out and write these losers in the history books?

"That's what worries me..."

"Our Federation of Heroes can only send tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of warships of various types at most! Moreover, that is already one-third of our current strength... It is not impossible for us to dispatch more troops, but , we also have our own enemies in the Koprulu sector, we will not put too much energy on this world!"

"There is one more thing I want to declare: we will definitely not invest so many fleets at once. The staff must assess the risks and proceed step by step. If the situation is not good, we will directly implement an immediate retreat and close the world. The plan for the passage..."

"So, Shepard, believe me... the war will not end easily. If possible, I also think that Admiral Anderson's suggestion just now is right. It is indeed a good idea to unite all races to fight against the Reapers." s Choice."

There are so many alien races here. In Galen's opinion, if they don't want to be destroyed by the Reapers, they can barely unite tens of thousands of warships and their Federation fleet to resist the Reapers. can you?

If, by then, the various fleets in the Milky Way can add up to more than 100,000 to 200,000, then adding their elite main fleet of the Federation, when facing the Reapers, maybe people will not be too desperate?

"..."

"Please give the order, Admiral Anderson!!"

After being silent for a while, Shepard did not refuse this mission that sounded very difficult, but only hesitated for a moment, then resolutely turned to look at Anderson, and made a solemn gesture to the other party with a serious expression. military salute.

This is just like what she has been doing before, as long as there is a need, she, Shepard, will definitely not refuse! !

"Very good! Shepard, you are worthy of being the pride of our humanity, and I am proud of you!"

Anderson also saluted the other party, and then patted the other party's shoulders that were not too tough compared to their men.

"Now, as the general of the Star Alliance, I will restore your rank of Lieutenant Colonel of the Star Alliance, and appoint you as the plenipotentiary representative of our Star Alliance's foreign affairs, responsible for contacting all matters of various races, I hope you will not let us down ?”

"Shepard, I hope you are doing well!"

"If we have a future, our Star Alliance, our humans, and even our entire galaxy will definitely not forget your efforts against the Reapers!!"

Although Shepard had never disappointed Anderson with what Shepard did, he had to remind the other party specifically to point out the seriousness of the matter.

"Promise to complete the mission, sir!"

Nodding, Shepard continued to salute again.

She doesn't mind about military rank or anything, as long as she can represent humans and the Star Federation to negotiate with other races, she will be satisfied! What's more, she still has the position of Ghost of the God's Castle. Although it may not be very useful in this chaotic situation, but at critical times, she can still use the tiger's skin as a banner.

"Your task may not be too easy, so let me send a team of elite N7 from our Star Alliance, as well as James and Ashley to help you!"

Anderson, who knew that most of the people in Normandy 2 had an affair with Cerberus, thought about it seriously, and out of some concerns, he planned to directly arrange a group of more reliable subordinates for Shepard, and to those who are N7 It is definitely possible, and the S1 Ashley of the S unit is also good!

If the other party can get enough training and not die, Anderson even thinks that Ashley might be another Shepard?

"Yes! I see!"

Knowing that the task was difficult, Shepard did not refuse Anderson's kindness to increase his manpower.

"Huh?"

"Do you still want to go out to perform missions? It sounds like fun...then I will go too!!"

(????ε????)??

It was very interesting to hear what the grown-ups said, and they could continue to visit the universe. Annie blinked, and ran over at a brisk pace on the spot, holding Tibbers' paw high announced.

She won't just stay here on this messy earth and toss about, since now she has the opportunity to play somewhere else, that would be great.

"If the head of state goes..."

"Then I'm going too, I need to protect our head of state! How about it, Shepard, is there any problem with this matter?"

After flicking the empty tin can in her hand, and stuffing the dagger into the sheath tied to the outside of her thigh, Nova also walked over with her beautiful long golden ponytail.

"And me, I can lead the charge!"

"Of course, you have to wait for me to find my big sword first. That thing is already easy to use. If I change it to something else, I might not be used to it."

Seeing that Nova was going to follow, of course Galen couldn't be too far behind, so he stood up on the spot and patted his chest to recommend himself.

"You? Don't you need to command the fleet to fight?"

"Oh! I'm sorry, I almost forgot... You are an idiot who only knows how to charge, and you don't know anything about commanding a fleet!"

First she asked a rhetorical question, and then Nova quickly realized it and began to sneer vigorously! Everyone can see that the reason why she did this must be on purpose.

"..."

The veins on Galen's head couldn't help twitching, and finally, he resisted the urge to get mad.

He felt that the damn female spy leader in front of him must have retaliated against what Galen said accidentally just now, it must be like that?

"that……"

"Both of you, I'm sure I'd welcome you all to come with me! But... your high-level executives are gone, who will coordinate the Star Alliance and command the fleet to fight the Reapers?!"

Shepard, who seemed to have seen some signs of it, quickly reconciled before the conflict between the two broke out... If these two guys who are obviously enemies are actually put on her Normandy II, then I don't know What will happen!

Moreover, what she just said is true after all!

Now is the most critical time to fight against the Reapers, and if the head of the Federation of Heroes, the admiral, and the major general all go out with her, who will coordinate and command those large troops and fleets? She didn't think it would be a good idea for Anderson to work with an unfamiliar Federation general!

"Matt Horner!"

"Matt? Horner!!"

Nova and Galen said a person's name at the same time, and the two quickly turned their heads and gave each other a glare.

"Matt? Horner... who is that?!"

Anderson didn't know the strange name, so he looked curiously at the little head girl beside him, hoping that the other party could give him a little explanation?

"Huh?"

"You old man see what I do, what Matt? Horner, I don't know that kind of weird guy!!"

(*???????)? ?

Maybe I knew him before, but Annie has already forgotten it all by now! Besides, she has been to so many worlds, and she can't count the people and things she has seen on her fingers. How can she remember the things in each world so clearly?

As for Matt Horner or something...

She dares to guarantee in the name of Little Bear that she really has no special impression! Anyway, that guy is definitely not a good guy! In the Koprulu sector, she only remembers a big sister named Leona, a first mate named Doug, as well as Raynor, Kerrigan, and someone who was robbed of the country by herself, it seems to be called Meng Sky's unlucky emperor?

Tsk! Now those guys seem to be officials of her federal country? A huge country was robbed by her just like that, I hope he won't just cry out in his dreams in the middle of the night, right?

"..."

Admiral Anderson, who was full of black lines, had no choice but to look at Galen, who was more familiar with him, as if asking for help.

"Matt Horner..."

"He is the captain of the former battleship Huberian, the current admiral of the Federation, and he graduated from the Tarsonis Military Aircraft Driving and Commanding University. In short, he is an amazing guy!!"

"Of course, even though his individual combat power is basically zero, in terms of talent for commanding battleships, even a hundred Galen can't match him!!"

"When the time comes, he will definitely come with the battleship!"

Before Galen could speak, Nova introduced Anderson first, and continued to glance at Galen who was glaring at her with unkind eyes.

"Hey! Can you stop targeting me everywhere?"

"I was originally a member of the Marine Corps, but now I am an army general, and I am also in charge of commanding operations on the ground. Fleet warfare is not my specialty, so there is no comparison at all!!"

In fact, the commander of the First Fleet of the Capital Military Region of Galen was only given that famous name in order to restrain some disobedient guys! It's just that, now that there are people from the Star Alliance, he will definitely not reveal all the messy things about the Federation.

This is something that can’t be helped, after all... It’s only been a dozen years from the establishment of the Federation to the unification of the star regions. It’s quite normal that there are many factions in the Federation. Impossible to adjust some troubles.

"Hmph! If you are useless, you are useless, so many excuses!"

"you!"

"..."

"Okay! You two guys are not allowed to go, I don't have time to protect you!"

___*( ̄dish ̄)/#____

Finally, Annie couldn't help but lose her temper...

She felt that if these two guys really wanted to follow with shameless faces, it might not be clear who would protect who when there was danger!

"yes……"

"Obey!"

There is no way, since the head of state Anne has spoken, Galen and Nova dare not not listen, they can only stare at each other bitterly and reluctantly agree.

Although, they are still a little reluctant to lose the opportunity to protect and seek opportunities to benefit from the great Head of State Anne, but at least now, in front of outsiders, the two of them also need to give their head of state a little face.

"Then if this is the case, it's time for me to go back to the star area!"

"Just right, I really need to go back to the star area to fight those guys who dare to speak ill of our Federation military!"

Nova, who was spoiled by a good thing, planned to borrow a donkey to go downhill, suddenly remembered something that made her unhappy, and then, planning to shift her target and vent her anger on some unlucky people, she said gloomyly talking.

"Speaking badly... Nova, you don't want to blackmail that reporter, do you?"

"That's not a trivial matter, I advise you not to do that!"

If this crazy woman dares to act like that, there will definitely be a big mess! Therefore, Galen didn't care about other things, so he quickly asked tentatively and gave some persuasion.

"Why, can't it work?"

"..."

"Of course not! Our federation has freedom of speech! Besides, don't you know that she is Mengsk's daughter-in-law, don't you want to offend someone from their side?"

Galen moved closer to the other party and reminded him in a low voice.

"oh?"

"But why can't I offend them?"

Nova hugged her arm, taking the time to mock the meddling Galen.

"..."

"It's troublesome now, we have to concentrate on dealing with the Reapers here, and exploring this plane... So I advise you not to create unnecessary disturbances at this time?"

Regardless of the large group of Star Alliance officers who were watching curiously around him, Galen leaned over to persuade him in a low voice.

"Hmph! Even if I can't deal with that reporter, I have to find out who leaked the news, and then try to get rid of his official position first!"

"So it doesn't violate the federal law?"

Nova walked out with a sneer and waved her hands indifferently. She really didn't intend to attack that female reporter.

Who is Nova? She is the leader of the Ghost Service, and she has subordinates in the entire star sector. If she wants to target a certain guy, wouldn't it be easy to dig up a lot of criminal evidence?

"This damn crazy woman!!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade the other party, Galen lowered his head and muttered angrily as if venting his anger.

"What were you talking about?!"

Nova, who had already walked to the gate, suddenly turned her head again, staring at someone who seemed to be speaking ill of her behind her back.

"No! Nothing..."

"By the way, Admiral Anderson, how many warships does your Star Alliance have?"

Galen, who didn't want to entangle with a certain crazy woman, immediately pretended to meet Anderson and asked.

Soon, their fleet will be summoned, and their Lord Anne has already given him several magical space gems. Apart from one reserved for the Federal Academy of Sciences, the rest is enough He summoned the full First Combined Fleet and used it for retreat if necessary.

So, now it is more important to figure out the structure and number of Starfleet's fleet.

"This..."

"We originally had several large fleets, and then there are a total of six dreadnoughts... But now I don't know exactly how many are left..."

Except for those that were destroyed by the Reapers in the Earth-Moon defense circle and wiped out in an instant, their Star Alliance should also have the second, third, and fifth colonies stationed at the Arcturus space station and the two colonies on the main star of Eden. Sixth and Seventh Fleet!

However, there is a premise for this, that is: have they not been discovered and attacked by the reaper?

"You are such a big Star Alliance, how come there are only six dreadnoughts?!"

Galen exclaimed directly, for the capital ship of the Star Alliance, the so-called 'dreadnought ship', Galen had already known a little bit before.

He heard from Shepard that the length of their dreadnought ships is about 1,800 to 2,000 meters, while the length of other cruisers and frigates ranges from more than 1,000 meters to hundreds of meters. It should be similar to the behemoth-class battlecruisers that have become outdated in their Federation of Heroes, but they are far from the latest battleships and super battleships.

Of course, what's even worse is their number?

A star alliance, a human race, how come there are only a few dreadnoughts? If this is their fleet of the Federation of Heroes, they can find a few heavy factories at random. As long as the resources are sufficient, they can be like a hen laying eggs. They are embarrassed if they don’t produce dozens of battleships a year. Go out and meet people!

Those UED expeditionary fleets were piled up by their Federation with a large number of warships, and they also served as a transportation brigade, sending them a large amount of high-tech and population for nothing.

"this……"

"There is no way around this. After all, we are limited by the Fariksen Treaty of the "Castle of the Gods", and the number of dreadnoughts cannot be randomly created to cause an arms race..."

"However, we still have a lot of large armored transport ships. They have no thinner armor than dreadnought ships. They also use the same type of engine and command bridge as dreadnought ships. As long as they are equipped with main guns, they can be used as ships immediately. Use the dreadnought!"

"It's just that I don't know how many of them are left now..."

"If they don't have any losses, plus those cruisers and frigates, it should still be possible for our Star Alliance to gather a large fleet of one or two thousand ships?"

Anderson bit the bullet and carefully counted their star alliance's family fortune. Anyway, the general situation is like that.

Due to the Fariksen Treaty of the Citadel Council, the number of dreadnoughts is severely limited, and as long as humans build one dreadnought, the Asari can build three, while the Turians responsible for the safety of the Citadel can build five ... So, they human beings have been developing insignificantly. On the surface, there are only six dreadnoughts?

But, as the saying goes, there are policies at the top, and countermeasures at the bottom!

Although their Star Alliance dare not openly violate the provisions of the "Castle of God Convention", but...they still dare to try it if they are ignoring the edge! In human's advanced language and written explanation, as long as it does not violate the express provisions of the law, it is reasonable and legal!

For example, build a lot of "armored transport ships" with dreadnought shells?

Like those big guys, except for the lack of a main gun, the size, length, weight, etc., are no worse than a dreadnought. As long as a spare main gun is installed in an emergency, it will be a dreadnought!

Although the Turians have protested before, there is no provision in the "Castle of the Gods Convention" that they cannot build a transport ship with the same specifications as the dreadnought, isn't it? The scientists of their star alliance are so lazy that they don't want to redesign the special hull of the new transport ship. What else can they do except make do with the dreadnought ship?

Of course, the number of 'transport ships' may not be too many, there should be dozens of them? After all, even if they do this kind of thing, they still want to save a little face for the members of the Citadel Council. It is impossible to burst out hundreds of transport ships that look exactly like the dreadnought, that would be too ugly.

"Forget it, I still don't count on you guys... I think our Federation of Heroes may have to prepare to fight alone?"

"Cough! This is not good news!"

Galen shook his head inexplicably, and no longer had too many expectations.

After all, what use is such a small fleet in front of a powerful reaper? Maybe, like the fleets on the earth, they will be smashed into groups of meteorite fireballs that shatter and fall into the atmosphere in an instant?

"..."

"Well, the fleet of our Star Alliance is actually the third most powerful fleet in the Citadel Council race..."

Although overall it is true that they are not too strong, but their Star Alliance can be said to be inferior to the top, and much more than the bottom!

Otherwise, how could they fight so badly that the Batarians who wanted to compete with humans for the colony had to retreat back to the Batarian galaxy, and even had to use the stupid method of leaving the castle to protest?

If there were no Reapers, their Star Alliance would have been a tyrant in the Milky Way. Except for the Asari and the Turians who had fought with them, their Star Alliance would not be afraid of anyone!

"Oh! That's all..."

"Let's leave this matter to Matt Horner, he is the admiral!"

Waving his hands, Galen doesn't intend to continue to tangle with the earthlings of this alien plane on this issue. Anyway, their federal general staff did not expect their earthlings to play a big role in formulating a battle plan. At the time, the opponent's military strength has already been excluded.

———————

The Arcturus Space Station is the headquarters of the Human Star Federation located on Arcturus. It shoulders the important task of guarding the frontier position of the solar system and the repeater that is connected to the Charon repeater!

It's just that right now, this place is being ravaged by fierce war...

Countless warship wrecks are floating in the void universe. There are beautiful blue and white battleships belonging to the Star Alliance that have been destroyed, and of course, there are also those dilapidated black and hideous monster spaceships of the Reapers!

This is a silent war, except for the rays of light radiated by various energies covering the window and the roar and bombing sound of its own battleship when it is hit, except for the tense data of the crew members in their battle channel They could hear nothing but the reports and orders of the chief!

The fierce battle is attacking you back and forth...

Half a day ago, the Reapers cut off all their communications, and let some of them jump into the solar system using mass effect repeaters, probably to raid the earth! And the remaining ones have fought bloody battles with the main force of the Star Alliance fleet stationed here until now!

Countless rays of light are coming and going, and there is not much momentum except for the windows of the ships that are constantly shining... This is the main theme of space warfare, and no sound is transmitted in a vacuum In such an environment, apart from the roar of their own battleship firing its main gun or exploding instantly after being hit, they don't have to worry about too many abnormal noises disturbing them.

At this time, Admiral Steven? Hackett is leading the second, third, fifth fleets and the garrison fleet of the space station to face hundreds of Reaper warships, and the bloody battle has been going on until now!

In this chaotic battlefield, countless red particle beams, blue pulse energy, and mass-effect projectiles fired at high speed, plus those anti-ship missiles are fiercely bombarding the battleship shields of both the enemy and us!

From time to time, the red energy particle beams of the Star Alliance warships are broken by the shields and penetrate the entire spaceship, causing cruisers, frigates, etc. to explode and become pieces of floating garbage in the universe...

At the same time, there are also a large number of Reaper battleships whose main guns are the same length as the hull, and can accelerate two kilograms of warheads to hundreds of kilometers per second at intervals of two seconds. A mass-effect projectile with a kinetic energy equal to 38,000 tons of TNT equivalent slammed into the ship, and after the kinetic energy barrier was overloaded, the ship was pierced through and opened a hideous hole, and was soon followed. The incoming sacrificial explosions and mass shootings turned into the corpses of ferocious behemoths floating motionless in the universe!

At this time, no one of the enemy and us will pity each other, but they just try their best to strangle their enemies to death with the fastest speed! Whoever shows timidity or shrinks first will fail and lose this battle...

"Yes! That's it, beat them hard!"

"Attention all fleets! We have a numerical advantage, and now it has reached eight to one! The warships immediately disperse the encirclement and assign combat tasks immediately. Be sure to ask six to eight warships to besiege one of them, and the injured ones retreat immediately and wait for the shield to recover. !"

"We have to use the advantage of numbers to kill those monsters!!"

Although the fleet suffered heavy losses, and although their battleship shields can often only withstand one blow from the opponent, under the outstanding command of Admiral Hackett, the Star Alliance fleet can exchange three ships for one, Defeat those hundreds of Reaper fleets, and they are on the verge of complete annihilation!

In Hackett's view, even with more than half of the three fleet casualties under his command, he will definitely be able to drive away or completely wipe out the opponent, completely protect the Arcturus space station, protect the portal of this solar system, and will never let more The Reapers jumped to the Charon repeater and jumped into the solar system to threaten their home planet Earth!

However, what they may not know is that after the communication was interrupted, the Reapers had already raided the local fleet and landed on Earth for the first time, and the top management of the Star Alliance had already been taken over...

"Not good! Detected the energy response of the Reaper spaceship's spaceship jump!"

"Sir, something is wrong, more Reaper warships are jumping from the repeater, there are a lot of them!!"

"The current number is one hundred... two hundred... three hundred... God! Their number is still increasing, and now it has reached more than a thousand ships!!"

"Sir?!"

A radar intelligence officer suddenly stood up to Admiral Hackett on the flagship bridge in despair and exclaimed in panic.

Originally, they have fought very hard in the half day since they fought. Basically, they killed five hundred enemies and self-defeating one thousand!

But now, when they were about to annihilate the remaining less than a hundred Reaper warships, the other party unexpectedly came with more ships, and the number was at least a thousand. How would they fight? !

"..."

Without the reminder from the radar soldiers, Hackett's face turned pale when he looked at the map of the battlefield.

"well……"

Hackett knew that the defeat was doomed...

This time, they will definitely not be able to defend the Arcturus space station, and they will not be able to defend this portal of their solar system...

"The order..."

Taking a deep breath, he knew that he would never be able to mess around, so he gritted his teeth and resolutely prepared to issue a new order:

"Let the Second Fleet... let them press on us with all their strength, and make sure to buy at least ten minutes! When the time is up, they can retreat on their own..."

"Order……"

"The 3rd and 5th Fleet immediately evacuated the battle area with the flagship, and immediately prepared to sail faster than the speed of light, and prepared to forcibly jump to the vicinity of the main star of Eden!"

"Order……"

"Notify Arcturus Space Station, let them... let them evacuate themselves now..."

After speaking, Admiral Hackett closed his eyes in pain.

Because he knew that whether it was the Second Fleet or the tens of thousands of military family members in the Arcturus space station, at this moment, he had given up on them...

However, he had no choice, if he didn't do that, all of them would die! Now, if he can run, he counts as one. As the admiral of the Star Alliance, he always has to leave some property for the human race and the Star Alliance. Now, what they were facing was a war that could not be won, and he had to do that.

As for the earth...

He dare not go back now!

Because they have completely cut off communication with the earth for a long time. Although he doesn't know what happened there, he has a vague premonition...

The earth's native fleet will certainly not be the opponent of the hundreds of Reaper warships that jumped over!

Therefore, he planned to go to the main planet of Eden, where he could still communicate with them intermittently, and then think about what to do next... She had to think about how to deal with those desperately powerful harvesters Fleet!

"But sir!"

"The commander-in-chief of the Second Fleet is your son... Moreover, some of your family members are also in the Arcturus space station..."

Speaking of this, Hackett's adjutant did not dare to say any more.

Because, he saw the ferocious and painful face of the admiral, who was staring at himself viciously.

"Of course I know what I'm doing!"

"However, everyone...you are also qualified commanders of the Star Alliance, and you have also seen that we have no choice now! Either we all die here...or we must save part of the power for the Star Alliance and mankind... ..."

"That sentence is right: 'Bloody battle, shrouded in horse leather', that is the fate of our soldiers..."

"Since sacrifice is inevitable now, I will choose to start with my son and my family! Then one day it will be our turn, and we cannot back down..."

"So, go ahead, carry out the order, any later, none of us can escape!"

Painfully took off his Star Alliance General's cap from his forehead, revealing his short gray hair, and gently wiped the Star Alliance emblem on the brim of the hat, Hackett trembled slightly and sighed.

Now, he has no choice...

"!!"

"Report!!"

"There is a powerful energy reaction behind our fleet, and a super-large fleet is jumping over. The distance... is one light second away, and the identification code... can't be recognized?!"

"Report sir! We are surrounded by enemies!!"

Before waiting for the end and the emergency evacuation order to be conveyed, the second lieutenant, the technical officer in charge of the radar, screamed again sadly!

On the interface of their battlefield radar, densely packed, at least tens of thousands of unknown red dots have appeared in the space behind them, completely cutting off their retreat!

Now, the result of the annihilation of the second, third, and fifth fleets of the Star Alliance and the defense fleet of the Arcturus space station is a foregone conclusion! !

"..."

"Ha! It's been a pleasure working with you guys..."

"Now, let us attack the Reaper troops ahead with all our strength! For the Star Alliance, for human beings..."

With a wry smile, Hackett slumped on the captain's mount, supported his forehead with both hands, and gave his last order!

Well, no one needs to argue now, because now, none of them can run away!

Hackett knew that human beings might be doomed...

With the loss of three fleets, they lost the power to counterattack... In front of those powerful reapers, doom is already settled!

"..."

'Zizi...'

'Notify the Starfleet ahead! '

‘We are the First Fleet of the Federation of Heroes in the Koprulu Sector! At the request of General Anderson, the highest officer of the Star Federation, we are here to help the Arcturus Space Station! '

‘We order you: get out of the way immediately! '

"Repeat! Get out of the way immediately! We will launch a salvo in thirty seconds!!"

"repeat......

More exciting, pay attention to genuine!
