Chapter 538: Chapter 322: All Martial Arts Under Heaven Are Invincible Only Through Speed Fast Particle Weapons were immediately put into mass production and installed on the existing warp speed battleships in service. In these years, the Blue Star Civilization did not just retreat; they secretly continued to build their strength, increasing the number of warp speed battleships. From initially having less than three, now they have ten warp speed battleships, an estimated one-third of the Maoshi Star Union’s fleet. The gap in resources, population, and manpower is difficult to bridge in a short time. Therefore, even in a counterattack, they must utilize the mobility of their weapons effectively. On the other side, the Maoshi Star Union has already determined their next attack target, which is the Southern Gate II Star System, also known as the Proxima Centauri Star System. “The Southern Gate II Star System is the closest point to the Solar System; the Blue Star Civilization has turned it into a space military fortress, and it’s also a critical outpost for their expansion!” The military experts of the Maoshi Star Union were analyzing the strategic situation. He said, “In the past few decades, we’ve occupied four star systems within the Blue Star Civilization’s range. Their territory has shrunk by half, their available resources are depleting, while our warships surpass them in both performance and number!” “Taking down the Southern Gate II Star System, the Blue Star Civilization will be left with only the Solar System as an isolated island! According to our intelligence, they lack strong military forces in other star systems; once we conquer the Southern River II, the Blue Star Civilization can only retreat to the Solar System and await their doom!” “Great!” Dong Zhen looked at everyone and said, “Now everyone is clear, right? Once, the Blue Star Civilization was a Level 1 Civilization, relying on resources within the Solar System for development.” “Now they are a Level 2.5 Civilization, and the resources from a single star system are insufficient for their internal growth, let alone further development.” “Our operation this time is to remove the shield in front of the Blue Star Civilization, exposing them completely to our military might!” “Sir, we, the Goa Civilization, request to lead the attack!” The leader of the Goa Civilization volunteered; despite suffering significant losses before, with the Maoshi Star Civilization’s help, their strength not only did not decline but rather increased significantly. “Our civilization is stronger, so we should be the vanguard!” “Our warp speed battleships outnumber yours by two!” “We even have Level 4 Warp Speed Battleships! Do you have any?” The commanders were already fighting to be the first to go. This was a stark contrast to the scenes of mutual avoidance decades ago. Several battle victories had boosted their morale tremendously! Dong Zhen was very satisfied with this situation; after swallowing the Blue Star Civilization, the power of the Maoshi Star Civilization would increase again, and then they could plot against the Black Sea Civilization and perhaps even aspire to become a Level 4 Civilization in the future. And he would be the leader of all this! “Alright!” Dong Zhen scolded, “We haven’t won yet, and you’re already fighting for credit?” “No matter what, we must remain cautious; the Blue Star Civilization often comes up with unexpected weapons.” “Therefore, during combat, the fleets of all your civilizations must follow unified coordination; don’t rush ahead seeking glory, first test their strength, then make plans.” “Understood!” Everyone naturally understood this principle. Hence, they organized their fleet for another battle. This time, the number of warp speed battleships attacking the Southern River II Star System was five more than in previous operations, totaling twenty warp speed battleships! This strength could almost annihilate ninety-nine percent of Level 3 or below civilizations! Months later, on the outskirts of the Southern Gate II Star System, detectors picked up unusual space distortion. Such occurrences happen when warp speed battleships are traveling. “A warp speed battleship is approaching the Southern Gate II Star System!” The warning system informed the Blue Star Civilization Command. “The enemy fleet has arrived!” This was not the first time such a situation had been discovered, so they already had experience. In the Southern Gate II Star System, everyone immediately prepared for war alerts. Proxima Centauri b, once a barren planet, had long been developed into a vibrant habitable planet, with various weapons constructed on it. For example, the Super Star Ring, different from the one of the Blue Star; here, the Super Star Ring mainly consists of an antimatter refinery equipped with an antimatter cannon to counter attacks from several warp speed battleships. Additionally, on Proxima Centauri c, another barren planet transformed into an industrial planet, there exist human interstellar military factories. “Everyone immediately take cover in space!” On both planets, people quickly boarded spaceships and warships, leaving the planetary surface immediately. In wars of a Second-level Civilization, destroying the planetary surface is not overly difficult; once defenses are breached, staying up there is akin to waiting for death. “Prepare the antimatter weapons!” “Prepare the Fast Particle Weapons!” “Proxima One Warp Battleship is in position!” “Proxima Two Warp Warship is in position!” For original chapters go to NovєlFіre.net “Proxima Three Warp Battleship is in position!” In the Proxima Centauri region, there were a total of three warp speed battleships. Moreover, within the Solar System to the Proxima Centauri Star System, He Xingzhou could mobilize three more warp speed battleships, and another four were in other star systems. “Sun No.1 stays in the Solar System; Sun No.2, Sun No.3 Warp Battleships, proceed to Proxima Centauri for support!” He Xingzhou commanded. As they mobilized their warships, in the Proxima Centauri Star System, the space defense system had already begun firing planet orbital guns towards likely arrival positions of the warp speed battleships. This massive kinetic energy cannon doesn’t harm the enemy but can affect their warp speed travel, forcing them to exit warp speed and enter sub-light speed, buying enough preparation time for the war.
