Chapter 147 Star Energy Shadows and the Alliance Crisis Returns
Just as the Alliance's exploration fleet was engrossed in studying the mysterious stellar energy structure before them, a dangerous force lurking in the darkness stealthily approached. A mysterious fleet from an unknown star system appeared like a ghost behind the exploration fleet; their warships emitted an eerie black light, seemingly capable of devouring the surrounding stellar energy.
The appearance of this mysterious fleet was completely unexpected, clearly a meticulously planned ambush. They swiftly launched an attack on the Alliance exploration fleet, unleashing beams of black energy like venomous snakes towards the Alliance warships. These energy beams not only possessed immense destructive power but also seemed capable of interfering with the Alliance warships' stellar energy systems, weakening their shields and reducing weapon accuracy.
The Alliance exploration fleet was immediately caught in a passive defensive posture, but they did not panic. The fleet commander quickly issued orders, and the warships began to disperse, using the complex environment of the Star Abyss as cover, while activating all defensive systems in an attempt to withstand the mysterious fleet's attack. The Star Energy Guardians, piloting their mechs, charged to the front lines, using their skilled Star Energy manipulation techniques to engage in close combat with the mysterious fleet's fighters, buying time for the warships to counterattack.
In the fierce exchange of fire, the Alliance fleet gradually discovered some weaknesses in the mysterious fleet. They found that while the mysterious fleet's black energy beams were powerful, their firing frequency was relatively low, and they required a certain amount of time to recharge after each attack. Seizing this opportunity, the fleet commander organized a counterattack. After one of the mysterious fleet's attack waves ended, the Alliance warships quickly concentrated their firepower, launching a fierce attack on one of the mysterious fleet's flanks.
The Starshine Star's warships used newly developed Star Energy Pulse Cannons to fire high-intensity energy pulses in rapid succession, accurately hitting several ships of the mysterious fleet. This caused their shields to collapse instantly, triggering violent explosions. Meanwhile, the Eldar's psionicists used powerful mental interference to cause some of the mysterious fleet's aircraft to lose control, colliding and crashing.
However, the mysterious fleet did not back down. They seemed very familiar with the environment of the Star Abyss, skillfully utilizing terrain features such as stellar energy vortices and spatial rifts, constantly changing tactics and causing considerable trouble for the Alliance fleet. In one engagement, the mysterious fleet deliberately lured the Alliance fleet close to a stellar energy vortex, then suddenly launched an attack, trapping the Alliance fleet within the vortex's gravitational pull and the enemy's barrage.
Several warships of the Alliance fleet were severely damaged in the attack; their shields shattered, their energy systems damaged, and their crews were in danger. But at this critical moment, the Starry Sky Clan's rune masters played a crucial role. They quickly inscribed rune arrays on the warships. These rune arrays not only enhanced the warships' defenses but also stabilized their energy systems, preventing them from completely collapsing in the critical situation.
Despite the Allied fleet's valiant resistance, the mysterious fleet's attacks grew increasingly fierce, and the situation became ever more critical. The fleet commander realized that if things continued this way, they might be completely annihilated. Therefore, he decided to adopt a risky strategy—to exploit the mysterious fleet's fear of the stellar energy structure, drawing the battlefield to the vicinity of the structure, using its complex energy field to disrupt the enemy's attack rhythm, and simultaneously seeking an opportunity to counterattack.
This decision was fraught with risk, as mishandling it could not only jeopardize escape from enemy pursuit but also trigger unpredictable reactions from the structure, bringing devastating consequences to both sides. But at this critical juncture, the Alliance fleet had no better option. They cautiously approached the structure, constantly maneuvering against the mysterious fleet, attempting to find a glimmer of hope in this perilous struggle. The fate of the Alliance hung on the line of this breathtaking battle; every decision, every attack, was a matter of life and death. The entire Star Abyss seemed to hold its breath, witnessing this fierce battle that would determine the future.
