“The Solar System?!”
“So, the neighboring star system is called the Solar System…”
“It’s an indigenous civilization called Pangu that chased away the roaming fleet, which caused them to blow up two planets before they left…”
“This Pangu civilization has just entered level 2, and they scared the fleet outside for so long?!”
Other civilizations felt contempt upon receiving the information, thinking that Kote’s civilization was too weak, being scared off by a civilization that had just entered level 2.
Of course, while ridiculing Kote, people also started paying attention to this indigenous civilization.
After all, an indigenous civilization that can scare off a late-stage level 2 civilization is not weak.
Moro, in his quest for revenge, revealed their own strength and disclosed the situation of the previous battle.
“Commander, headquarters just sent a message saying they’ve dispatched a combat guidance group, which should arrive in about a day!”
“What?!”
Dugo was a bit surprised, “How is that possible? Even using wormhole acceleration technology, it would take at least io days to get here from headquarters. How could they arrive tomorrow?!”
The adjutant sighed, “I have confirmed with them, it’s indeed one day until arrival…”
“So, they’ve already sent people?!”
Dugo was a bit annoyed. Headquarters didn’t seem to consider him at all, sending a guidance group at this time.
“Commander, our people will arrive in three days. What if they see through us by then…”
Dugo hesitated for a moment, then said: “Tell them to stop for now, I need to figure out what this guidance group is for…”
Masquerading as another level 3 civilization and displaying their power at Proxima Centauri was his personal secret move. If the guidance group found out, there might be trouble.
It would be better to wait and see what kind of people were in the guidance group, what their purpose was for coming here, and then make a decision.
“What about the war in the Solar System…”
“Let’s not interfere for now, let them fight it out!” Dugo shook his head.
A war between level 2 civilizations wasn’t particularly interesting to him. His attention was still on how to subdue the seven, or even eight, major civilizations within a month.
“Commander, the enemy has sent over tens of thousands of warships, this should be all the forces of this civilization…”
Colonel Chu was giving his regular report. On the gravitational wave detector, there were no detectable units left near the wormhole of the Proxima Centauri system.
Even if the enemy left some forces, the number probably wouldn’t be large.
“Hmm, when are we going to retreat?” Zhao Yu asked.
According to Colonel Chu’s plan, after letting the enemy in, they were to gradually retreat, creating an illusion of weakness to buy as much time as possible.
Now, with the light needle weapon, they were even more confident.
And the enemy didn’t know that their forces had retreated to the vicinity of the Bel Comet, so they would surely continue their fierce attack on Earth, assuming it was their base.
“We still have about ten sets of laser defense systems. When we’ve nearly exhausted them, we can retreat…”
Colonel Chu quickly presented a new battle plan, “During the retreat, we can dispatch small fleets to cover our retreat and harass the enemy, which will also delay them for some time…”
From the wormhole to Earth, even with their ships, it would take about 25 days of flight.
With the harassment tactic, they could delay it to about 50 days.
Once both sides are stable, they could engage in another war like the one with Moro’s fleet, which would further delay the enemy.
“Alright, you keep an eye on this, I’ll be back…”
Seeing that the production line for the light needle was almost complete, Zhao Yu was a bit impatient. He gave a few simple instructions and hurried away.
Back at his place, the light needle production line was just finished, and related information about the light needle appeared on the system interface.
Zhao Yu read it carefully and basically understood it.
The one-thousand-kilometer production line was mostly for producing ‘light needles,’ with a smaller part for making light needle launchers.
The light needle, which seemed just like a needle and weighed less than a gram, was truly forged a thousand times over to be able to accelerate to near light speed while still maintaining its shape.
The light needle weapon can be placed in two ways. One is ground-based, placed on the ground, but it’s not very flexible due to its fixed location.
The other way is to place it on a spaceship, but the spaceship needs to be at least 100 kilometers long.
This was the minimum distance required to accelerate the ‘light needle.’ This meant that none of the active ships could mount a light needle.
Zhao Yu recorded another video, telling Uncle Da about the installation of the light needle, and asked if he could modify the ships.
Half a day later, Uncle Da’s message came.
“Commander, I can modify the existing production line to produce a
‘stick-type’ warship that is a hundred kilometers long. This warship can only mount the ‘light needle’ weapon. It won’t affect the speed, but it’s not very agile in turning, it needs to slow down to change direction…”
Zhao Yu sighed with relief at the message and replied, “Then modify it to make this ‘stick-type’ ship, other issues are not a problem…”
Indeed, without other attack and defense methods, they could simply escort this ‘stick-type* warship with other warships.
After another half day of communication, Zhao Yu also got the production time and quantity required for the ‘stick-type’ warship that could carry the light needle..
