Chapter 329 The Corruptor's Secret
"This ship is 18,000 meters long, 4,000 meters wide at its widest point, and 3,000 meters high at its highest point! It's four times the size of our Michigan dreadnought!" The officer who was responsible for scanning the Corruptor battleship looked a little ugly.
The data of this battleship is too strong. You should know that although the Corruptor wins by numbers, its close combat effectiveness at the same size is no less than that of ordinary Empire battleships of the same tonnage.
The Empire just took advantage of the distance advantage in the previous battle, and now with the upgrade of the Corruptor battleship, the range advantage of the Empire fleet has gradually been offset.
Such a large battleship, if nothing unexpected happens, must be almost the same as the Empire's dreadnought, after all, it is more than four times the size.
A larger size means a stronger reactor, more shields, more main and secondary guns, and a possible super weapon.
"What's going on? Haven't the Corruptors' fleets always appeared with warships below the battleship level? We haven't even encountered their battleships, so how come a dreadnought-level warship suddenly appeared!" Li Mingze's figure appeared in the bridge.
After receiving the message, he hurriedly switched to the advent stand-in in the flagship.
"I think this may be the trump card that the Corruptor civilization has hidden for thousands of years." Monica looked at the screen in a daze.
The huge warship on the screen has completely left the magma pool, and dozens of huge tentacles began to extend from the warship and wave in the air.
"What is this? I'll ask Lis." After Li Mingze finished speaking, he connected to Lis's communication, who was attacking the last line of defense of the empire.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor of Sith, what do you want to talk to me about?" Lis's voice came from the intercom.
"Does your civilization have a dreadnought as the last trump card? Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Li Mingze's tone was a little angry.
"Your Majesty, I don't know about this either! I only know that there is indeed such a legend in our civilization." Lis felt a little wronged.
"Oh? What legend is that? Tell me about it." Li Mingze said coldly.
"It is said that before I was born, about two thousand years ago, an extremely large space creature broke into the star field of our civilization."
"At that time, our civilization had already matured in gene extraction and optimization technology, and seeing such a giant space creature was like finding a treasure."
"Our current head of state led all the warships of the civilization at that time to use wheel tactics, and only after sacrificing half of the warships did he seriously injure the creature."
"In order to obtain the powerful power of this creature, our head of state chose to merge with the already seriously injured space creature."
"After destroying the consciousness of this space creature, the head of state successfully took this extremely powerful body for himself, but the price was that his human body also disappeared."
"Until later, he didn't know how to reshape his body and returned to civilization, but at that time the six major families had already controlled the operation of the entire civilization. Until now."
"We don't know if this story is true or not. It has been circulating for too long!" Liss told the story he heard when he was a child in one breath.
"This story is true. Your leader did merge with a monster. The space creature must have been hiding in the magma to recover after being seriously injured, and it has not seen the light of day until now!" Li Mingze's throat was a little dry.
"What should we do then? We can't give up." Lis hesitated. If it was really as the legend said, the empire would not be able to defeat the space creature that had been seriously injured by half of the civilization's fleet.
His dream of becoming the leader would become unattainable, and he might be exposed at any time. What would happen to him then...
"No! We will kill this biological warship. When you receive our signal, you will return immediately and fight for the position of the leader!" Li Mingze shook his head and gave him a positive answer.
"Okay, I will withdraw with my fleet when I receive the signal." Lis nodded.
"By the way, is the map I gave you okay? Did you encounter the enemy?" Lis remembered something and asked carefully.
"We did, and our fleet suffered extremely heavy losses." Li Mingze made up a story with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"It's all my fault. I should have confirmed it before sending it to you. These damn commanders changed their routes without authorization. It's all my fault. I will compensate you when I ascend to the position of the head of state!" Liss's face was full of an expression of "I'm wrong", pretending to be innocent.
"I remember, don't forget to compensate us when you ascend to the throne." Li Mingze said and hung up the communication.
"That's right, this battleship is a giant space creature fused by the head of the Corruptor!" Li Mingze turned his head and sighed to Monica and others.
"The universe is so incredible that such a magical creature can be born." Monica sighed.
"Since it is a creature, it has weaknesses! If it has weaknesses, we have a chance! All warships fire at the same time! The two dreadnoughts will be here soon!" Li Mingze raised his voice to encourage everyone.
The warships of the second squadron followed the order and aimed their guns at the Corruptor dreadnought that was slowly leaving the atmosphere.
"Wait until he leaves the kinetic defense barrier!" Li Mingze stared at the big screen in front of him.
"Now! Fire!" Li Mingze shouted loudly after seeing that the Corruptor Dreadnought on the screen had left the yellow light film.
Shells and missiles accompanied by beams from beam cannons fiercely hit the dreadnought that had just emerged.
Soon, ripples began to appear on the surface shield of the dreadnought, and bursts of flashes of explosions began to flash on its shield.
"No, Your Majesty, according to my calculations, its shield has reached the level of our Crescent! Our firepower can't knock through its shield in a short time!" Tianyi opened his eyes and said frustratedly.
"Mobile attack, its flying speed is very slow, we use the tactics of flying kites!" Li Mingze ordered while looking at the Corruptor Dreadnought that was still flying slowly.
"Yes!" The warships began to circle around the Corruptor Dreadnought under the leadership of the flagship.
The bulky Corruptor Dreadnought was indeed not very mobile, and it began to slowly rotate its hull, hoping to aim its main gun at the high-speed moving imperial fleet.
However, reality was destined to disappoint it, as its turning speed was far slower than the speed at which the Imperial fleet circled.
