Blue Crystal Star Harbor
"Report: The defense line of Zone 3 has been breached; the entire T011 Fleet has been destroyed!"
"Report: The Sixth District defense line has been recaptured. The T088 Fleet has suffered over 80% casualties, and its commander has been killed in action."
"Report: The Twelfth District defense line has been attacked by a large number of Zerg swarms. The T101 Fleet is responsible for holding the area, and the T103 and T104 Fleets have been dispatched to provide support!"
One intelligence report after another was gathered and sent to the command center of Blue Crystal Starport.
Zhao Ruyue is currently here.
She abandoned directing the battle from her flagship and instead moved the command post here, because it was a semi-military starport with a military starport command center, making it more suitable for directing the battle.
Zhao Ruyue looked at the interstellar sand table in front of her. Centered on the Blue Crystal Starport, it was under attack from all directions by the Zerg fleet.
The quantity is enormous!
If it weren't for this starport as a base, and the superior performance of the Xiaolong series interstellar warships, Zhao Ruyue felt that she might not have been able to hold out until now.
Five hours!
Five hours have passed since the attack.
Zhao Ruyue touched her forehead, which was covered in sweat.
Five hours earlier, Zhao Ruyue paid no attention to the appearance of a Zerg fleet, but soon wave after wave of Zerg fleets swarmed in.
It completely surrounded the Blue Crystal Star Harbor.
At its peak, the number even reached 100,000!
What does 100,000 even mean?
The number of Zerg fleets that would only appear in thirty Level 4 cosmic wormholes is extremely threatening, not only in the Blue Crystal Galaxy, but also in any star region of the Star Glory Empire.
But surprisingly...
Although these Zerg fleets are numerous, the number of T4 Zerg motherships is extremely small.
So far, only three T4 Zerg motherships have been detected!
There are only three T4 Zerg motherships among the 100,000 Zerg fleet.
This is not normal!
This is so abnormal!
Or rather, the way the Zerg fleet was fighting right now gave off a strange vibe.
But no matter what, all Zhao Ruyue can do now is to persevere!
Some might say break through?
Zhao Ruyue's subordinates had also suggested breaking out, but Zhao Ruyue looked at the swarm of insects surrounding the Blue Crystal Starport in layers on the interstellar sand table.
She had already pictured the consequences of trying to break through.
The Imperial Princess's fleet of 30,000 interstellar warships that she leads will be completely devoured by the swarm of insects, which will attack from all sides and above and below!
Therefore, the only option is to stick to this plan.
Waiting, waiting for a miracle to happen.
"Report: Our strategic resources are being depleted very quickly! There are just too many insects!"
"General Zhao, the combat resources we have are only enough to sustain the current battle for another five hours! We must find a way!"
Looking at the expectant eyes of his subordinates.
Zhao Ruyue had no other choice at this moment.
The combat supplies they carried were sufficient to sustain a regular combat operation for one hundred hours under normal combat conditions.
But who could have imagined that they would encounter a Zerg fleet?
As everyone knows, when facing a massive Zerg fleet, the most important thing is to ensure that you have enough ammunition!
The individual Zerg fleets are not very strong, but they are numerous, and there are also tens of thousands of small Zerg units.
Therefore, when fighting against the Zerg fleet, combat resources are consumed at a rate several times faster than in a regular battle.
The interstellar warships on the defensive line almost never stopped firing their cannons.
Some interstellar warships even used up a year's worth of ammunition in just five hours!
We can't stop!
We can't stop for a moment.
Once a Zerg unit gets close, the consequences are obvious to everyone.
"Hold on! Keep holding on! Keep trying to contact the outside world. Believe that our friendly forces will discover that we are under attack and come to our aid!" Zhao Ruyue clenched her fists and continued to boost morale.
"Report, this is new radar scan data."
Because there were too many insectoid units around, the radar scanning range of the Starport was reduced to 30% of its original range. "The subordinate updated the radar data."
But the radar range is too small.
However, there was nothing that could be done; there were simply too many Zerg units.
Zhao Ruyue looked up at the porthole a few meters away. There used to be a star in that direction, and at this time of day, that star would have been shining directly on their starport.
But now.
Because of the dense swarm of insect units, the outside world was pitch black except for the fireworks generated by the battle!
That scene weighed heavily on Zhao Ruyue's heart, like a black mountain.
Zhao Ruyue lowered her head, her heart heavy.
"Look! Look over there!"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed and pointed to the distant starry sky.
At the same time, a crew member using an energy-type radar exclaimed, "Dense bursts of explosive energy have appeared outside the Ninth District defense line!"
Dense bursts of explosive energy?
Zhao Ruyue suddenly raised her head and looked towards the direction of District Nine through the deep space telescope in the Star Harbor.
You can see the burning 'fire cloud'.
That 'fire cloud' devoured swathes of the Zerg fleet.
"It's an interstellar missile bombardment! It's an interstellar missile bombardment!"
It's my younger brother's Falcon Legion!
"We're saved!" Zhao Ruyue shouted excitedly.
She is familiar with this.
Who else but the JF-17 Thunder Legion could launch such a concentrated barrage of fire?
"Hiss hiss hiss... hiss hiss hiss..."
Just then, a muffled sound came through the communication channel that had been trying to contact the outside world.
Without waiting for the crew to report, Zhao Ruyue immediately took him to her side.
"Hiss hiss hiss... This is... Hiss hiss hiss hiss... Dragonfly... First... Please... continue... Hiss hiss hiss... Hold the line... and await orders..."
Although the sound was muffled, the voice was still audible, and it was a magnetic male voice.
Zhao Ruyue was extremely familiar with it.
Moreover, it is well known that there is only one man in the JF-17 Legion.
That was his younger brother, Zhao Chen.
Zhao Ruyue, dragging her somewhat tired body, sat down in a chair and gave a relaxed smile: "Looking back, this is the second time."
As the older sister, I'm now entirely dependent on my younger brother for help.
This was the second time Zhao Ruyue had experienced this feeling of being protected.
I remember the first time was when I was fleeing in the Cangyue Starfield with my little princess Qin Xiaolei.
They were in despair at the time, but Zhao Chen appeared like a divine intervention, bringing them hope.
And they were rescued.
This time.
He still showed up.
"Connect me to the entire fleet's internal communications, I want to speak!" Zhao Ruyue suddenly ordered.
"Internal communications for the entire fleet have been activated," the subordinate reported.
Looking at the communication interface in front of her, Zhao Ruyue took a deep breath: "My brother is Zhao Chen, the commander of the Xiaolong Legion."
They've come to our rescue!
Did you hear me?! Hold on, everyone! Our journey doesn't end here!
