Chapter 455: Defeated Again!
The Dark Universe suddenly exploded with activity like a strip of colorful firecrackers.
The Bose Alliance's ten Constant Star Celestial Civilizations, four White Dwarf Star Civilizations, and four Neutron Star Civilizations led the charge in a many-pronged trident formation, spearheading tens of thousands of Battle Stars behind them. From a distance, it resembled a cosmic beast-charge, each sphere emitting a dazzling array of colors, spectacular, beautiful, and stunning!
Behind them, the leader of the Bose Civilization, the Black Hole Tian Bo, controlled the massive Bose Nebula, following slowly. Firstly, it served as a rear guard for the Bose army, and secondly, it positioned itself at the battlefield to command in real-time.
Boom boom…
After entering the shooting range, the Bose Alliance launched the first wave of attacks, which included the Crown Hole Beam, Gravity Waves, Space Waves, Bose Beams, Bose Condensed Cold Bombs, Bose Disintegration Cannons, Bose Dispersion Waves, and Bose Zero weaponry. It was evident that the Bose Alliance did not hold back, launching their full power with the first wave. This was also motivated by the stimulations from previous wars; they hoped to annihilate the Wandering Alliance in one fell swoop to avoid prolonged conflicts.
Facing the full assault of tens of thousands of Battle Stars of the Bose Alliance, even the Wandering Alliance dared not take it lightly. Furthermore, with their tactical acumen, they would not underestimate the enemy. Thus, the Wandering Alliance's Battle Stars adopted a targeted defensive strategy, using equivalent attacks to intercept the dispersion waves and zeroing weapons, while launching the Four Base Space Shield to uniformly defend against less threatening weapons.
As for Lu Chen's Black Hole Avatar, White Dwarf Battle Star, Neutron Battle Star, and others, they only needed to avoid the zeroing weapons; the rest of the weapons were completely harmless to black holes, white dwarf stars, and neutron stars. Even if they struck the celestial bodies, they would merely add to their mass.
Ultimately, under the full defense of the Wandering Alliance, the first wave of the Bose Alliance's offensive was completely intercepted, and the Wandering Alliance suffered no losses.
This was mainly due to the Wandering Alliance's technology being more advanced than that of the Bose Alliance. Naturally, the Wandering Alliance's early warning defense system's scanning accuracy was also superior, enabling them to easily defend against all attacks from the Bose Alliance amidst the chaotic battle conditions.
After repelling the first wave of assaults, the Wandering Alliance immediately launched a counterattack; 160 Battle Stars quickly dispersed into small squads.
This was a tactical response from the Wandering Alliance.
Because the Wandering Alliance knew that if they confronted the enemy with their total strength unified, they would definitely be at a numerical disadvantage. Although their technology was leading, too many enemy stars could cause problems, so they decided to spread out the opposing Battle Stars, destroying them one by one or in small groups, which was undoubtedly much easier than directly annihilating tens of thousands of Battle Stars at once. Moreover, operating in small squads was one of the advantages of the Wandering Alliance—it allowed for a dispersal of targets, preventing the Bose Alliance from concentrating their firepower for bombardment, thereby turning a tactical disadvantage into an advantage.
Thus, under the Wandering Alliance's more advanced technology, superior strategy, and stronger individual combat capabilities, they successfully divided the Bose Alliance's Battle Stars, causing the Bose Alliance to be completely passive on the battlefield, being beaten back repeatedly, and even many Battle Stars were destroyed. Some Celestial Civilizations, such as Constant Stars, White Dwarf Stars, and Neutron Stars—rare celestial bodies—were captured by the Wandering Alliance using the Celestial Body Capture Device.
These Celestial Civilizations were precious existing celestial bodies readily available. Constant Stars allowed Lu Chen to absorb them, while White Dwarf Stars and Neutron Stars could be slightly modified into their own Battle Stars, though it required more effort to capture.
However, the situation on the western front was different from that on the eastern front.
Because the western front was commanded by Li Chen's main body, the Wandering Alliance's Battle Stars used Information Shock to eradicate the Celestial Consciousness, then applied thrust to push the intention-less Constant Star Bodies towards Lu Chen. Lu Chen then used Gravity to pull them into his Roche limit, absorbing them directly on the battlefield.
Lu Chen did this for two important reasons; it was not a meaningless impulse act. Firstly, it allowed him to directly increase his mass on the battlefield, enhancing his combat strength; secondly, his direct absorption of Constant Star Bodies acted somewhat like whipping a corpse, infuriating the Bose Alliance and causing them to completely lose their reason.
.....
"God, has the Wandering Alliance become this strong after I left?"
Behind the battlefield, the crew of Wandering and the Metal Civilization stared at the rapidly changing situation on the battlefield, utterly dumbfounded.
They never expected that the seemingly small Wandering Alliance was so powerful, holding their own on two fronts against two Level 4 Civilizations with tens of thousands of Battle Stars.
This was incredibly unbelievable!
Previously, the Wandering Alliance's achievement of annihilating a thousand stars in a short time had already shocked Wandering and Metal Civilization, but the current situation was even more astounding.
Initially, they had little faith in the Wandering Alliance, but now they had truly been proven wrong.
Even a Metal Star person asked with a trembling voice: "Wandering, is this really the Wandering Alliance you always talked about? Are they really that Level 3 Civilization that was calculated by the Metal Civilization and oppressed by the Titan Civilization?"
Upon hearing this, Wandering remained silent for a long time, then sighed deeply, "Clearly, they are not the Wandering Alliance of before, and my impression of the Wandering Alliance still lingers in the past; no wonder Lu Chen spoke to me like that. But, it's conceivable that it was precisely because of that past event that the Wandering Alliance strived to become stronger..."
As he spoke, an inexplicable excitement surged in Wandering's heart.
It felt as if a once weak motherland had suddenly become powerful right before his eyes, causing an overwhelming sense of sigh and admiration, his heart throbbing with emotion, unknowingly shedding tears of emotion and excitement!
Tears were also shed among the Bose Alliance and Fermi Alliance.
But their tears were different from those of Wandering; theirs were for the Battle Stars and fellow lives sacrificed on the battlefield.
At the same time, they could not comprehend how their armies, even with tens of thousands of Battle Stars, could still show signs of defeat, unable to grasp how there could be such an incredibly powerful civilization in the universe.
However, despite their reluctance to admit it, the reality was that, under the same desperate situation, both the Bose Alliance and Fermi Alliance still had to face this extremely cruel battlefield and figure out every possible way to turn defeat into victory.
But, just when the Fermi Alliance was pondering how to achieve victory in the war against the powerful Wandering Alliance, a significant piece of intelligence suddenly came from the front lines!
