Chapter 290 Dreadnought Main Gun
"All warships at the impact point of the opponent's weapons should be pushed up to form a new shield in front of the fleet! Now! Immediately!" The commander of the Corruptor fleet looked at the rapidly approaching red light ball and felt an increasingly ominous premonition.
The Corruptor commander didn't know that his action had put him on the edge of hell.
As the Corruptor warships collided with each other at a high speed, they were connected to each other with tentacles and soon formed an extremely huge hemisphere.
The function of this hemisphere is to allow excess energy to be discharged through the opening of the hemisphere to achieve the purpose of protecting the fleet behind.
In order to form this special "shield", the Corruptor fleet used 50,000 Corruptor frigates and 10,000 damaged Corruptor destroyers.
The red light ball was extremely fast and flew to the impact point calculated by the Corruptor after the shield was formed.
The red light ball launched by the dreadnought instantly shattered after hitting the shield formed by the Corruptors, and wisps of red light overflowed to the surroundings.
The alarm sounded loudly in the Corruptor warships that formed the shield.
"Alarm, gravity anomaly detected, the gravity of the spacecraft has exceeded the threshold!" With the alarm sounded in the Corruptor warship, the Corruptor warships that formed the shield wall instantly began to deform and collapse towards the middle of the hemisphere.
The main gun of the Empire's dreadnought is the super weapon that the Empire has just developed. Originally, this weapon could not be put into use due to energy limitations. It was not until the previous generation of civilization destroyers were found and the energy core in this destroyer was used that the Empire's super weapon became a reality.
As the red energy spread, the warships that formed the shield were sucked into the center of the sphere by the huge gravity, turning into a huge sphere composed of warships.
As time went by, this huge sphere continued to shrink, and the warships that formed the sphere were constantly compressed under the action of gravity.
Just after the shield collapsed, the Corruptor fleet protected behind also felt the gravity, and countless warships were dragged towards the sphere by the huge gravity.
As the number of warships that crashed into the sphere increased, the invisible gravity range became larger and the force became stronger.
Soon, most of the Corruptor fleet was enveloped by this field, and countless warships crashed into the sphere.
The second half of the Corruptor fleet and the warships outside were much luckier. They quickly avoided it after seeing that something was wrong, but the first wave of warships that felt the gravity and the warships in the middle of the fleet that had nowhere to escape were all caught.
No matter how crazy the thrusters ran, they could not escape the range of gravity. They were slowly pulled toward the sphere in the middle by gravity and squeezed into a discus.
Originally, the power of the Empire's super weapon gravity cannon was not that great. According to Tianyi's calculations, at most it could kill one-fifth of the Corruptor fleet, but now the Corruptor warships that were pulled by gravity and could not escape accounted for almost three-fifths of the total number of the Corruptor fleet!
The reason why the power became beyond expectations was because the Corruptor commander made a wrong judgment and command, and sent so many warships to block the gravity shells when they just exploded.
You should know that this kind of gravity cannon has a characteristic, that is, as the mass of the surrounding objects being absorbed increases, the power of the gravity cannon shells increases, and the range and power of the released gravitational waves increase.
Originally, the Corruptor Fleet would be able to find the abnormality after the gravity cannon attracted a small number of warships, and then most of the warships would be able to escape easily, but the Corruptor commander's move just happened to enhance the power of the gravity bomb in the early stage.
The Corruptor warships were enveloped in the gravitational range before they had time to run far.
Li Mingze was so happy that he couldn't help himself when he saw the Corruptor fleet was bitten and the bitten warships flew towards the sphere like crazy.
"I didn't expect to meet someone who jumped into the pit himself." Li Mingze smiled and shook his head. Now the opposite fleet has only more than 7 million ships left, which is more than a little less than the original 20 million ships.
The pressure on the Empire Fleet was greatly reduced!
At this time, the commander of the Corruptor Fleet was also in disbelief. What kind of super weapon did the Sith Empire use to kill more than three-fifths of his warships with one shot!
If he continued to fight like this, he would wipe out the main fleet of the Corruptor Civilization, and then he would probably end up like Pang Qi who had been beheaded!
"Sir, don't panic. Just now, after the calculations of the scientists on board, they found that the power of their weapons is not that great."
"If we hadn't taken the initiative to form a shield wall, then this super weapon would at most be able to take away more than three million of our warships." An officer explained to the commander of the Corruptor.
"You mean, it's all my fault?" The commander of the Corruptor widened his eyes in disbelief. After all this time, the reason why his fleet was so miserable was because of himself.
"Yes, sir, if our fleet is completely dispersed, this gravity cannon will be useless!" The upright officer continued to say fearlessly.
The Corruptor commander tried to suppress his anger and wanted to strangle the officer, but after thinking carefully, he realized that it was indeed his fault, so his anger subsided and his hand that was strangling the officer's throat loosened.
The officer who escaped death was so scared that he collapsed to the ground.
"Disperse the fleet! We continue to attack! Even if there are only more than 7 million warships left, they are far from our opponents. The secret weapon of our flagship has not been used yet!" The Corruptor commander regained his confidence and gave another order while touching his chin.
The scattered Corruptor fleet rushed towards the Empire's fleet again. Although the number was not as large as before, it was still huge compared to the Empire's warships, which had only tens of thousands of ships.
"Fire again!" Li Mingze frowned as he looked at the Corruptor warships that had been scattered to the point of being invisible. It seemed that they had found a way to deal with the gravity cannon.
"Sir, if the enemy continues to disperse their formation, it will be extremely disadvantageous to us!" Qiuyue, who was standing behind Li Mingze, whispered.
"No hurry, wait until they get close to us, now is the time to shoot!" Li Mingze shook his head mysteriously.
"Isn't it just that the dreadnought also brought 20,000 maintenance drones from the previous generation of civilization?" Tianyi on the side pouted and couldn't help but spoil the spoiler.
"You really are." Li Mingze glanced at Tianyi with disdain. He originally wanted to tease Qiuyue, the little girl, but he didn't expect to be disrupted by Tianyi.
"I was wondering why your Majesty was so calm. It turns out you have a trump card." Qiuyue rolled her eyes at Li Mingze. Having been with Li Mingze for five years, Qiuyue and Li Mingze have become very familiar with each other and are no longer as restrained as they were at the beginning.
