My empire of stars

(The lifespan of the drone was changed to twenty hours. Error)

Upon discovering that the battleship had been invaded by robots, the Expansion Committee battleship immediately activated its defense device. After a yellow light curtain flashed through the battleship's passage, all the robots turned into powder.

"Your Majesty, our drone mothership has been filled with nutrient solution." Tianyi said to Li Mingze who was observing the situation on the battlefield.

"Order the fleet to start manufacturing drones immediately." Li Mingze nodded expressionlessly.

Countless drones flew out from the drone mothership again and began to circle around the drone mothership.

At this time, the number of mechanical warships on the battlefield had dropped to 30 million, and more than 8,000 warships of the Davis Expansion Committee had been destroyed, leaving less than 2,000.

The record of these eight thousand ships was mainly the result of the joint attack between the empire's drone swarm and the fleet of the Davis Security Council.

Eva's fleet basically only played a role in interfering with the Expansion Committee fleet, and destroyed less than a thousand Expansion Committee warships in total.

If it were not for the assistance of the Davis Security Council and the Sith Empire, it is foreseeable that Eva would eventually be annihilated or captured by the Expansion Committee.

A few minutes later, faced with such tragic battle damage, coupled with the continuous appearance of drones from the empire's drone hive fleet in the distance.

The Expansion Committee finally couldn't hold on any longer. In order to prevent another wave of self-destruction attacks from the Sith Empire's drone sea from attacking all its own warships, it issued an order to retreat. Then all the warships of the Expansion Committee disappeared in a golden light. Starry sky.

"Finally retreated." Li Mingze sighed. Only he knew that his side had reached its limit. The dual-purpose reactors and the nutrient solution for hatching drones consumed in this battle were the empire's reserves for more than thirty years.

The drones produced next are all interceptor drones with air combat capabilities and anti-air missiles. These drones only look scary, but the threat to the golden battleship is almost negligible.

Eva's mechanical battleships not only have low combat effectiveness, but there are less than 30 million of them left.

Of the two thousand warships sent by the Davis Security Council for reinforcements, only one thousand were left.

Therefore, if the fleet of the Davis Expansion Committee can persist to the end, Eva's fleet and the battleships of the Davis Security Council are likely to be completely annihilated, and the remaining imperial fleet will not pose any threat to them. By then, the Expansion Committee It was the winning side, but unfortunately they were frightened by Li Mingze's bluff and made the wrong decision.

"We will continue to pursue them. While their vitality is severely weakened, we will unite with other volunteer fleets to encircle and suppress this Expansion Committee warship."

"Thank you for your cooperation. After this battle, the strength of the Expansion Committee's total fleet will definitely drop a lot. Our Davis Security Council's disadvantage on the battlefield has been reversed."

"In the next period of time, the Expansion Committee will be too busy fighting with our Davis Security Council to take care of you. You can develop with peace of mind."

"I hope you can consider joining us."

"See you later! Let's go first!" As the Davis Security Council fleet sent a message to Eva and the Sith Empire's fleet, the Security Council's golden battleship also disappeared into the starry sky, chasing the retreating Expansion Committee fleet. go.

Calm returned to the battlefield, leaving only the greatly damaged Eva fleet and the fleet of the Sith Empire standing quietly in the starry sky.

"The threat from foreign enemies has been temporarily resolved, and now it's time to resolve the issues between us. Let's rest for two days before fighting again." Eva sighed and connected to Li Mingze's communication.

"Okay! It's a deal!" Li Mingze smiled bitterly and nodded to Eva.

In fact, Li Mingze can almost guess Eva's little thoughts. This is Eva's star field, her home ground. Two days are enough for Eva's mechanical fleet to be repaired. On the other hand, the empire's fleet is far away from its base camp. Not to mention whether the supplies can keep up, it is in an emergency. The reinforcements from the Sith Empire could not arrive in time, and the battle should be over by the time they arrived. This is where Eva's cunning lies.

Soon, Eva's 30 million fleet began to sail into the internal port of the metal planet along the hundreds of huge entrances on Eva's main base.

There they will refill the reactor fuel and ammunition, repair the damaged hull, and prepare for the decisive battle two days later.

Although Eva suffered heavy losses in this battle, her remaining 30 million mechanical fleet was basically unscathed, because the Davis Expansion Committee's battleship secondary guns were so powerful that they would be dead if they hit them. That's why Eva only asked for two days.

The Imperial Fleet also began emergency repairs, and countless missiles and artillery shells were printed out and sent to various magazines.

The drone mothership also docked with the supply ship and began to replenish various materials.

Because of the lifespan of drones, all previously manufactured drones will turn into powder in a few hours, so the transport ship that has been supplied begins to play the role of recovering the drones.

After the drones produced during the battle were forcibly scrapped, the reactors and attack and propulsion modules of the drones were taken out from the drones' bodies.

These drone parts, which were originally designed to have a service life of only twenty hours, now only have half of their lifespan left. However, in line with the principle of using all available resources, they should be reused. After all, the empire's supplies are not that good now. rich.

And these devices are much more valuable than the nutrient solution that the empire can now produce in large quantities.

Two days flew by, and the Imperial fleet and Eva's fleet had completed their repairs. The two sides were facing each other quietly half a star system apart, waiting for an order from the commanders of both sides.

"Your Majesty, we have just detected a large amount of energy reaction under the outer shell of that metal planet." Tianyi frowned.

"Enlarge their main base on the screen." Li Mingze nodded and ordered Tianyi.

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge hologram appeared in front of Li Mingze, and the metal planet on the screen was undulating slightly.

"What is Eva's metal planet doing?" Li Mingze was very puzzled.

Tens of seconds later, something surprising happened to Li Mingze. On the surface of the metal planet on the screen, metal armor began to rise and slide aside, and huge rail guns protruded from the ground.

The originally smooth metal planet instantly turned into a "hedgehog" covered with huge cannons.

These giant cannons began to flash with blue electric patterns. Li Mingze knew that this was a special sight when these electromagnetic rail guns were storing energy and a large amount of energy was leaking out.

Just when he thought this was all the changes in the metal planet, thousands of metal pillars more than 10,000 meters long, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, stretched out from the ground on the side of the metal planet facing away from the imperial fleet.

If detectors hadn't been scattered all over the star system, Li Mingze might not have discovered this amazing scene at all.

From the exposed gaps at the top of these metal pillars, it is easy to guess that these are the propellers of the metal planet.

It's incredible. Transforming a planet into a metal structure was beyond Li Mingze's expectations, but Eva was able to transform the planet into this!
