Chapter 274 Arrived in Time

They had never encountered a civilization that could destroy 100,000 Corruptor warships in one minute and prevent them from even sending out distress signals.

These warships must have entered an area that could block signals while tracking the Imperial warships and were unable to contact them. This kind of environment is very common in the universe.

"Hurry up and dismantle it. Soon we will be able to strip the tortoise shell of this planet!" Pang Qi ordered loudly to the warships.

Suddenly, tens of thousands of blue lights penetrated the fleet that was dismantling the orbital defense platform.

"What the hell is this?" Pang Qi looked at the drone that had sunk into the warship with a puzzled look.

But soon he knew what these things were that flashed by so fast. As the drone passed through the rear of the warship, the Corruptor warship that was penetrated quickly withered, and the tentacles that bound the turrets were also broken into several sections in the air.

"Damn it!" Pang Qi suddenly thought of something. The more than 10,000 warships that were killed by drones just now didn't even have time to send out a distress signal. Is it the same for the 100,000 warships that disappeared? The 100,000 warships that were following the Imperial Fleet have been killed by these drones emitting blue light! Pang Qi's scalp suddenly felt numb when he thought of this possibility.

"All warships, retreat immediately!" Pang Qi hurriedly recalled all the warships and prepared to run away.

But the drones did not mean to let them go. As the drones kept shuttling through the Corruptor fleet, the number of surviving Corruptor warships became fewer and fewer.

400,000 ships 350,000 ships 300,000 ships 200,000 ships 100,000 ships!

Looking at the signs representing his own warships that kept going out, the heart of the Corruptor commander Pang Qi was bleeding. Needless to say, even if he escaped by chance, he would be court-martialed.

Just when he thought his fleet was about to be destroyed, he was surprised to find that the more than 10,000 drones that hit his own warships were actually bounced aside!

"Huh? What's going on!" Li Mingze sat up straight in confusion.

"The drone's energy is exhausted, please recharge as soon as possible!" A line of scarlet words suddenly appeared on the holographic screen in front of him.

"Are you kidding me? The service life of this is too short. It's only been used for a few hours!" Li Mingze looked at the display in confusion.

"The cutting mode of the drone and its energy consumption can only be used without limit in the special energy environment of the ring world." Noticing Li Mingze's confusion, the bracelet took the initiative to explain.

"Special energy environment! Could it be the yellow energy fog before we entered the control room?" Li Mingze said to himself.

"Yes, but the energy fog is due to a leak in a reactor, resulting in too high energy density. The original energy fog is invisible to the naked eye." The bracelet explained again.

"Bad luck!" Li Mingze sighed and looked at the drone that was no longer able to float in space.

The Corruptor Commander Pang Qi was overjoyed when he saw that the drone that could kill their warships in seconds had lost its power.

"Get these drones for me!" Pang Qi ordered loudly to many warships, thinking that being able to obtain such awesome technology would be enough to offset the guilt of losing almost the entire fleet due to his poor command!

Li Mingze was shocked to see the Corruptor warships reaching out to the drones floating in space. He couldn't let the Corruptors get this technology, otherwise why fight, just surrender.

"All warships aim at the Corruptor fleet, fire at full power!" Li Mingze gritted his teeth, even if the drones were blown up, these Corruptors couldn't get away with it.

Tens of millions of mass-accelerated shells left the launcher and headed towards the Corruptor fleet.

The Corruptor warships that were salvaging drones were hit before they could turn around and run away.

The huge kinetic energy shattered the shields of these warships, tore open the armor of the warships, and turned the Corruptors into pieces of debris in the red flash.

"Damn it!" Pang Qi was surprised to find that the Imperial Fleet was fully stocked with ammunition. He hurriedly controlled the warships to fly backwards. After using his warships to block the attack, Pang Qi and the remaining 30,000 warships hurriedly retreated to the outer reaches of the galaxy.

"Sith Empire, you will be dead when our army arrives!" After saying this, 30,000 Corruptor warships and 100,000 warships left between the ring world and the planets jumped into hyperspace and disappeared.

"Count the losses of drones!" Looking at the wreckage of the spacecraft floating in front of the fleet, Li Mingze couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken.

Thousands of the Empire's own drones flew out of the fleet and went to the wreckage to find the preserved repair drones.

"Your Majesty, nearly 80% of the orbital buildings on the new home planet have been destroyed. The reconstruction of these orbital buildings requires a lot of time and resources." Tianyi's figure appeared beside Li Mingze.

"I know that the loss of these orbital platforms is nothing. We can build them ourselves. The maintenance drones of the previous generation of civilization are the most important!"

"And these drones are not something we can make now. We have never seen the materials used to make them."

"So these remaining drones will be the mainstay of our resistance to the fleet of the Corruptor civilization!" Li Mingze was a little anxious. He was waiting for the final result of the search.

"Your Majesty, we found a total of 6,856 intact maintenance drones." A soldier in charge of salvage work sent statistical information.

"More than 6,000, hey. Half of them are gone." Li Mingze sighed and shook his head, his expression a little gloomy.

"Your Majesty, the entire Ring World is so big, there must be more drones. If we look carefully, we will definitely find more!" Tianyi put her hand on Li Mingze's shoulder and patted it gently. Although there was no real touch, Li Mingze still felt her good intentions.

"Well, lift the alarm of all colonies and restore the normal operation of society. When all the corrupters on the Ring World are eliminated, we can continue to develop."

"Also, send troops to go deep into the wreckage of the Ring World to see if there are any treasures we haven't found yet!"

"After finding good things, seal them in place and don't allow anyone to approach. The same applies to the maintenance platform!" Although Li Mingze believes in the loyalty of his own people, he still has to be prepared for the worst with his cautious character.

If someone obtains some technology left over from the previous civilization and develops some ideas that shouldn't be there, it will not be good.

"As ordered, I will eliminate anyone who does something that shouldn't be done!" Tianyi nodded. Obviously, she also thought of this aspect like Li Mingze. As the existence of maintaining Li Mingze's dictatorship, she will never allow anyone to threaten the imperial power.

Any existence that threatens the imperial power will be eliminated by her in the bud. Every year, many officers and citizens of the empire disappear or are imprisoned for fabricating crimes.

The seemingly calm empire is actually turbulent, but these big waves have been quietly flattened on the sea surface by Tianyi before they form.

It is precisely because of the omnipresent Tianyi that Li Mingze controls the empire, so the empire under such high pressure has not collapsed.

At this time on the ring world, the ground forces of the Corruptors did not know that they were abandoned. They could no longer receive any information, support and communication from orbit.
