Earth Era

A single salvo of the sixty main guns of the Earth-class spacecraft is enough to completely destroy a civilization that has not yet entered the interstellar era, as well as all life living on this planet.

So...if that genius is hiding on this planet, no matter where he is hiding on the planet, he must be dead at this moment. But there are three rocky planets in the Lager 728 system, so... this attack by the Earth-class spacecraft will be staged twice more.

There are so many robots that even after such a long period of efficient killing, their number has not decreased at all. But that doesn't matter. Anyway, the purpose of the human civilization fleet's mission is not to kill the enemy at all.

Although there are many of them, they are still unable to stop the advancement of the fleet of human civilization. After destroying the first planet, the fleet immediately set off for the second planet.

The second planet is more than 20 million kilometers away from the previously destroyed planet, which means that it only takes a few hours for the fleet to rush over. But the situation doesn't seem too promising. Even with Xiao Yun's naked eyes, Xiao Yun noticed that the fleet's forward speed was slowing down at this moment. There are too many robots, and this huge number makes their originally insignificant attacks become more powerful - the bite of an ant is not enough to have any impact on an elephant, but if it is Even an elephant would not be able to bear the bite of 100 million ants.

Previously, surrounded by more than 3,000 combat spaceships, no robots could rush into the queue, and no robots could get close to the Earth-class spaceships. However, now sporadic robots have begun to break through the defense line, although they will be able to do so in the next moment. Got killed, but that's always a bad sign.

And... breaking through the defense line, more and more robots were approaching the Earth-class spacecraft. There were so many that Xiao Yun could clearly see their individual structures, and he could clearly see the robots hitting and tearing each other. Bite, to the point of launching an attack on Earth-class spacecraft with small arms fire.

But this still cannot stop the fleet's progress. Then Xiao Yun saw that after the second salvo of the sixty main guns of the Earth-class spacecraft, the second planet in the Lage 728 system also fell into chaos.

So...the last target of this battle was left. As long as the last planet can be destroyed, the goal of this battle will be achieved. At that time, the fleet will choose to retreat and leave here, and then observe the situation here on the periphery of the galaxy to decide the next strategy.

But... will this goal be achieved so easily?

Since the beginning of this battle, the fleet of human civilization has suffered serious losses. Xiao Yun knew that at least more than a hundred Taishan-class spacecraft and five Everest-class spacecraft had been destroyed, and the number of spacecraft that had been damaged to a certain extent was several times that number. But even so, Xiao Yun still had a feeling in his heart that... this battle went too smoothly.

Facing the attack of the human civilization fleet, the robot group has not organized an effective defense plan at all. They seem to really only know how to swarm up with numbers, and only know how to launch chaotic attacks based on numbers - this attack method can indeed be said to be the most suitable for the existence form of robots, but Xiao Yun believes that... if that's all, , then the genius who designed these robots was too stupid.

This large-scale battle exposed many problems in the robots, which directly caused the robots' combat capabilities to drop by a notch. This may be good news for General Emerk and the staff team, but Xiao Yun believes that this means a doubt. This doubt is that some things related to combat skills are added to the main control programs of these robots. is it hard? If it wasn't difficult, why wasn't that genius added? If the genius added it, why weren't these robots used?

After all, as long as they have some very simple combat skills, the robot group can increase the casualties of the human civilization fleet by at least half. In that case... the raid of the human civilization fleet will not be so smooth.

But the fact is that those robots are still using the most inefficient combat methods. This means... did they deliberately not use combat skills, or did the genius fail to add combat skills to them?

The second possibility was eliminated by Xiao Yun without hesitation. Since that genius can design and create such an exquisite robot that can replicate itself infinitely, there is no reason why he should forget his fighting skills. After all, even someone like Xiao Yun, who knows almost nothing about war, knows something about coordinated operations and mutual cooperation. How could that genius not know that?

Then...there is only the first possibility left. And if it is the first possibility, doesn't this mean that... the robot group is deliberately letting the fleet of human civilization penetrate deep into the Lage 728 galaxy? In other words, is this a conspiracy, a trap?

This possibility made Xiao Yun's eyes sharpen instantly. Xiao Yun carefully looked at the chaotic and complicated battle outside the observation deck, and continued to think about this possibility.

Luring the enemy deep is actually a very simple strategy, and the reason for executing this strategy is also very obvious. It is nothing more than to obtain greater results, or even to annihilate the entire fleet of human civilization. It's just...if they only have combat skills, the robot group cannot do this.

The single combat effectiveness of the robot is really too weak, and the speed of this raid is extremely fast. Although there are tens of billions of robots in the entire Lager 728 galaxy, they are actually scattered. In a short period of time, There is no way to bring them together. Even if the robot's overall combat power can be doubled after adding combat skills, it will only be able to expand some results. If that's all... is this necessary?

Don’t forget that so far in the battle, the robot group has paid the price of two planets. This does not include the robots that were destroyed in vain because they hid their true combat power. In terms of force, they will not be destroyed. These two planets will have harsh environments for millions of years to come, and this will inevitably have an impact on the robot group's process of collecting resources to replicate itself, so this can be regarded as the price they pay, and the harvest... Is it just to lure the enemy deeper and then increase the damage to some human fleets?

This doesn't seem to make sense. From the perspective of effort and gain, this is a very uneconomical thing. Even if the robot is not smart, it is not so stupid. From this, we can draw the next conclusion, allowing robots to carry out this strategy even at such a heavy price... What they are plotting is definitely not just to increase the number of casualties in the fleet of human civilization, it is very possible. , they want to bury the entire fleet of human civilization here. But it is impossible to do this just by enhancing some combat effectiveness, so there is a big problem. The robot group hides its own strength... What exactly does it want to do?

Although the goal of "annihilating the entire fleet of human civilization" is difficult for the robot group, and it cannot be achieved even if their combat power is doubled, Xiao Yun still believes that this goal is the most possible. To do this, you must add something that you don't know. In other words, the robot group has a hidden backend, and this backend... can allow them to achieve "the destruction of the entire fleet of human civilization." this goal.

Then everything would make sense. The robot group hides its own strength and lures the enemy deeper. After the fleet of human civilization reaches a certain level, the robot group will burst out its true strength. Although this true strength still cannot destroy the fleet of human civilization, it can at least delay them. For a period of time, during this delayed period of time, the robot group will use the unknown hidden method to destroy the fleet of human civilization in one fell swoop.

There are two prerequisites for using this follow-up move. First, the human civilization fleet must be lured deep into the Lager 728 galaxy. Second, the human fleet must be delayed for a period of time. In other words, this follow-up move must be launched. It takes a certain amount of time.

But even with these two premises, Xiao Yun had no way to guess what the next step would be. The existing information is too little. Without enough information, there is no way to continue this speculation.

But even just thinking about this point... the situation the fleet faces is terrifying enough. Xiao Yun didn't know whether General Emerk had thought of this or recognized it as a trap, but since Xiao Yun had thought of this, Xiao Yun had to tell General Emerk these speculations to be on the safe side. Know.

Xiao Yun hurriedly broke into the combat command room and told General Emerk his speculations. General Emerk's reaction was a bit strange. After listening to Xiao Yun's thoughts, General Emerk just nodded lightly.

"General, do you already know these things?" Xiao Yun asked.

"Yes."

"Since you already knew this was a trap, you still chose to break in?" Xiao Yun's tone was full of confusion.

"Yes." General Emerk said calmly. (To be continued ~^~)
