As a veteran third-level civilization in the Milky Way, the Red Rock Galaxy has always held the title of the strongest civilization before the rise of the solar system. In addition to the strength of its own fleet, the Red Rock Galaxy has this honor, and the scope of the star system it is located in is also very large.

Because of this, there are enough resources to help them develop rapidly.

The area of ​​the entire Red Rock Galaxy is several times larger than that of the Solar System. In addition to the Red Rock Star, which is the birthplace of civilization, the galaxy also includes several other planets where a large number of Red Rock Stars live.

In addition, the defense of its galaxy can be called an iron wall.

Not only are there a large number of plasma cannons as the main firepower of the planetary defense fortress, but they also include patrols composed of elite fleet forces.

Inspect the situation in the galaxy in real time.

As long as there are any abnormalities, they will be reported to the headquarters as soon as possible, and corresponding countermeasures will be taken.

Especially after Xu Lei announced the Clay Empire's affairs three years ago, although the Red Rock Galaxy was not very responsive to the Civilization Administration's orders and was unwilling to consume its own fleet, it still increased the defense level in the galaxy.

Even if no trace of the Clay Empire fleet was found, the additional defensive power was still not cancelled.

"Call headquarters."

"This is the Black Hawk patrol team. We have successfully arrived at the designated location."

"No abnormalities found."

"Headquarters received it, please continue patrolling."

Near the orbit of the red rock galaxy Meran Star, a patrol team composed of several medium-sized battleships was conducting daily inspections.

Make sure there are no abnormalities in the galaxy.

In the control cabin of the battleship at the front, Captain Cooney heard the order coming from the communicator, and then turned his attention to the main screen to confirm the next patrol route.

As the backbone commander of the elite fleet of the Red Rock Civilization, he was transferred to the Black Hawk Squadron three years ago as a commander.

Responsible for patrolling the outer areas of the galaxy to prevent emergencies.

The Molan Star is the outermost life planet in the Red Rock Galaxy. There are nearly one billion Red Rock Star people living on it.

Due to the remote location of Molan Star and the large changes in the planet's environment, this place has become a place where their Black Hawk team often patrols.

Speaking of which, Kuny couldn't even remember how many times he had been here in the past three years.

In addition, the permanent population of Molan Star is relatively small, mainly because it is too remote, and most people from Red Rock Star are not willing to migrate here.

After all, they are almost at the edge of the galaxy. They are far away from the stars and cannot guarantee the temperature of the planet's surface. They must use technological means to transform them to ensure the normal life of the people of the Red Rock Star.

Of course, Cooney doesn't care about the situation of Melan Star.

When he was first transferred to the Black Hawk Team, although he knew that his daily mission was to patrol, he was very excited.

It can be said that every time I set off, I am full of fighting spirit.

The main reason was because he heard that the Clay Empire from the Andromeda Galaxy might take action against the Milky Way.

You must know that at that time, with the leadership of Xu Lei and the cooperation of the Civilization Administration, the entire galaxy was in an uproar. It wouldn't work if you didn't believe it.

Maybe ordinary people don't want to see the war break out, but as the most elite commander in the civilized fleet, who doesn't want to actually command a battle to prove his strength and level.

With the Civilization Administration, the various civilizations in the galaxy maintain a relatively stable and delicate relationship, and basically no major conflicts will break out.

Therefore, the fleet has very few opportunities for actual combat training. The last time we supported the solar system to eliminate the migratory army of Void Zerg was already a big event.

But the enemy they have to face is the most powerful civilization in the Andromeda Galaxy, and they also have to take over the entire Milky Way.

You don't need to think about it to know that it will be a tragic and protracted war.

Kuni was not too worried about this. Instead, he was eager to try and fight against the Clay Empire's fleet.

At least that was his plan at the time.

Becoming the leader of the Black Hawk patrol team, even though the vehicle has shrunk from the large Star Destroyer to a medium-sized battleship, it can still be regarded as being at the forefront.

If there is an invasion by the Clay Empire's fleet, they will definitely participate in the battle.

It's a pity that he was so full of enthusiasm that he was gradually awakened by the cold water of time.

For three consecutive years, the system has always been normal. Not to mention encountering an invading Clay Empire fleet, not even a single Zerg was seen.

At the beginning, he could maintain his fighting spirit and participate in the patrol, but later he gave up completely. He only wanted to complete his daily work and no longer thought about the Clay Empire fleet at all.

I also think that just like what was said on the open platform, this may be false news at all.

It's the solar system that wants to take over the galaxy.

The key point is that the Black Hawk and several other patrol teams have not been cancelled. This means that he has no way to redeploy the fleet, and can only waste it day by day.

"Get ready to go to the next target location, everyone follow."

His thoughts returned to reality, and Cooney informed the team members in several other battleships through the battleship's communication equipment, and then immediately changed direction and continued moving forward without any hesitation in the entire process.

He was tired of this job, but after all, there were still laws and regulations of the Red Rock Galaxy. If there were problems with the mission due to the commander himself, he would definitely be tried by the court. He did not want to experience this kind of life without freedom.

Therefore, he talks a lot less than before and only knows about repetitive work every day.

Perhaps it was because the atmosphere of the entire Black Hawk team was relatively harmonious. As the team entered the route and headed steadily towards the target location, the team members couldn't help but chat in the communicator.

Of course, the topic of discussion must be the Clay Empire.

"I've been walking on this route every day for three years. It's been really boring. I don't know when those councilors will hold a meeting and cancel the patrol."

"Who says otherwise? I think the Clay Empire is completely fake news."

"I really don't know what the higher-ups are thinking. We, the Red Rock Star people, are still a level three civilization after all. Who would look for trouble with us and take us out of the fleet to do patrolling duties? It is a complete waste of human resources."

"Captain, do you think the Andromeda Galaxy will really take action against us? Is it true that the Clay Empire has arrived?"

Cooney listened to the conversation of several team members, and when he saw someone taking the initiative to ask him, he said for the first time: "Who knows, these are not things that a few of us pawns can ask."

"That's right. We don't know what those congressmen are planning." The team member nodded and agreed with this answer.

Whether the news about the Clay Empire is true or false, it is not their concern.

Besides, there is nothing that can be changed.

In the time that followed, whether it was because Cooney's answer was too true or because of Cooney's taciturn character, everyone else gradually remained silent.

Stop talking about this nonsense.

But just when they were about to arrive at the next target location and successfully complete the patrol mission, the alarm bell suddenly sounded in the control cabin of the battleship where Cooney was located.

The entire cabin flashed with a dazzling red light, and it was obvious that the battleship was in a major crisis.

"alarm!"

"alarm!"

"Unknown attack detected, please evade immediately!"

…

"Asshole, how is this possible!"

It is no exaggeration to say that this is the first time that Cooney has encountered such a situation. When he heard the warning issued by the system and immediately confirmed it, he found that the battleship he was driving had been locked by an unknown attack, and a ship could be destroyed at any time. fate.

But you have to know that this is in your own star system, how can it be targeted by attacks.

No matter how you look at it, it looks weird.

However, he also knew that now was not the time to think about the identity of the enemy. The top priority was to get rid of this attack.

Ensure the safety of the battleship and yourself.

It is worth mentioning that the performance ranking of the medium-sized battleships in service in the Red Rock Galaxy is not too high in the Milky Way, and it is incomparable with the Kamikaze battleships in the Solar System.

In addition, due to the friction and misunderstanding between the two civilizations, the Red Rock Galaxy was unable to purchase particle neutralization shields and energy shield amplifiers.

This means that the battleships they are serving do not have much safety guarantee.

If it is successfully hit, there is a high probability that the battleship will crash.

The battleship driven by Cooney only had basic intelligent assistance systems. At this critical moment, he still had to rely on his superior driving experience to dodge the attack.

Therefore, at the critical moment, Cooney did not hesitate at all and directly pushed the battleship's power to the extreme manually.

While causing the battleship's speed to increase suddenly, it also forcibly changes its flight trajectory.

In the process, he told the team members behind him through the communication equipment in the control cabin: "An unknown enemy has targeted me. This situation is a bit unusual. You must immediately retreat to the nearest Molan Star and report your request to the headquarters. support."

He couldn't guarantee that the enemy's target was only him. If other team members were also targeted, his reminder might have some effect.

After all, not everyone can react as quickly as he does.

In addition, since the other party dares to attack them directly in the Red Rock Galaxy, they must have some support.

Perhaps it can be said that people are not afraid of the red rock galaxy at all.

In this case, if several of their medium-sized battleships do not return to the planet as soon as possible and use the planetary defense fortress to cooperate with the attack, they may be shot down in a short time.

The Red Rock Star is too far away from them, so the best way is to return to the Molan Star they just passed by.

Although Melan Planet has a small permanent population and relatively difficult conditions, it is precisely because it is located at the edge of the galaxy that its external defense power is stronger than that of other planets.

As long as you successfully enter Molan Star, your safety will be guaranteed.

Things were just as Cooney thought. They had a patrol team composed of several battleships. If the enemy wanted to attack, how could they attack only one of them?

It can be said that when he explained the situation to the team members, several people had already reacted and adopted the same response measures.

But it may be that things happened too quickly, and others didn't have time to respond to their situation.

So much so that after Cooney finished speaking, the team communication channel fell into silence.

After all, Cooney is also an elite fleet commander, with strong combat qualities and on-the-spot reaction capabilities.

He knew very well that the enemy could still give him time to react, which meant that the opponent should have launched the attack from a relatively long distance. When the attack reached nearby, all aspects of its power would be weakened.

This was his chance to escape.

"Damn it, you are attacking us so openly. Could it be that the Clay Empire of the Andromeda Galaxy is really here to attack us?"

"This is unlikely!"

"Why did you attack our Red Rock Galaxy first?"

In order to get rid of the attack from behind as soon as possible, Cooney decisively fired all the ammunition in the battleship, using this method to reduce the weight of the battleship and increase its flight speed.

At the same time, the power of the ammunition explosion can also interfere with subsequent attacks.

But a lot of ideas were flashing through his mind quickly, but they were rejected by him before they stayed for too long.

It's not like he hasn't thought about the Clay Empire's fleet entering the Red Rock Galaxy, but this should happen after the civilizations in the galaxy are affected.

Because everyone knows the strength of the Red Rock Galaxy, even if the title of the strongest civilization is replaced by the civilization of the solar system, its heritage cannot be underestimated.

If the Clay Empire really wants to take over the Milky Way, it shouldn't attack the Red Rock Galaxy first.

This is not the same as chewing the hardest bone first before eating.

You must know that when any war breaks out, the performance in the first battle is often directly related to the morale and atmosphere of the team.

If the first battle is successful, it will undoubtedly boost morale and push forward all the way.

But if they hit a wall in the first battle, it will inevitably frustrate the team's confidence. In addition, the Clay Empire is still an army that has traveled more than two million light years, and the negative impact will be expanded several times.

It was precisely because of these considerations that he did not believe that it was the Clay Empire's fleet that attacked him.

Mainly, the enemy fleet should be relatively far away from him at the moment. The battleship's space radar alone cannot detect anything, so naturally it is impossible to determine their identity.

But it should be said that if the Clay Empire is very confident in its own strength, it is indeed possible to attack the Red Rock Galaxy first.

After all, once you win, your morale will be boosted to a very high level.

In this way, after Kuni piloted the battleship and struggled with the attacks from behind for a period of time, he finally successfully resolved the risk by relying on his rich experience in posture combat.

The whole person finally breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his tense spirit a little.

"We must return to Meran Star as soon as possible. It is not safe here." Thinking that the danger was not yet completely gone, Cuni did not dare to delay too much. He murmured secretly and then readjusted the flight route to Meran Star.

As for his team members, they can no longer take care of them at the moment. Whether they can return to Molan Star alive can only depend on their own luck.

If he goes to look for it at this time, the possibility of being attacked again will be very high.

But by then he may not have such good luck.

But what he didn't expect was that before he could return to Molan Star to confirm the situation of his teammates, he heard several notification sounds from the battleship system.

"Black Hawk 2 signal has disappeared."

"Black Hawk 3 signal has disappeared."

"Black Hawk 4 signal has disappeared."

"Black Hawk 5 signal has disappeared."

The five battleships of the Black Hawk Patrol Team are all implanted with special devices. If the battleship is destroyed, the remaining battleships will receive corresponding feedback.

But Kuni never expected that except for him, all the other teammates would die.

After all, in that situation, it is impossible to abandon the ship and escape. In other words, the state of the battleship represents the situation of the teammates.

The signals from these battleships disappeared now, which only meant that the hulls had been destroyed.

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for the crew inside to survive.

"hateful!"

In an extremely angry mood, Cooney slammed his hands on the operating table uncontrollably and swore secretly in his heart: "If I don't take revenge, I will not be worthy of being your captain."

Of course, he was angry, but he didn't let it go to his head and chose to take the initiative to cause trouble for those enemies.

You must know that this kind of behavior is too stupid.

The top priority is to return to Molan Star as soon as possible, report the matter to the headquarters, and then use the power of his own fleet to avenge his teammates.

…

"One actually ran away, but it's not a big deal."

At this moment, outside the Red Rock Galaxy, in the control hall of the large battleship Ares, the first fleet of the Clay Empire's First Legion, Mara, as the captain and fleet leader, looked at the battleship on the main screen that had successfully escaped the attack, with a calm expression. Whispered.

This time he was arranged by Renault to take the lead, and it could be said that he was already determined to win the Red Rock Galaxy.

Running aboard a battleship won't change anything at all.

After seeing the defense force approaching the Red Rock Galaxy, Mara's face suddenly became very serious.

When the screen on the main screen flashed and the twenty large battleship captains of his first fleet appeared, they immediately began to make arrangements.

"Our purpose this time is very clear, to capture the civilization in front of us and let the legion commander and the other four fleets see the strength of our first fleet."

"I don't want to make any mistakes in this operation and disappoint the legion commander."

As Mara's voice sounded, the twenty figures on the screen immediately responded in unison: "Please don't worry, sir, we will win!"

"Very good, then I will assign specific tasks." Mara looked at the performance of all his subordinates and seemed very satisfied.

Dang even informed everyone in detail of the plan he had made in advance.

Let them do what they are told.

Since they are only the vanguard, the legion will be deployed around the Red Rock Galaxy to completely block this star field.

So they can go out and do whatever they want.

Of course, Mara has not forgotten that his most important task is to destroy the star gate in the Red Rock Galaxy.

Therefore, he decided to send the main force of the fleet to pretend to attack the Molan Star. After attracting the enemy's attention, he then sent a small force that was easy to hide to the Red Rock Star to destroy the star gate.

As long as the Star Gate is destroyed by then, the Red Rock Galaxy will be completely isolated and helpless, and will eventually be slowly eaten away by the Legion.

Become a new trophy for the Cray Empire.

"I say it one last time, no matter what the cost, their Stargate must be destroyed. This is very important to us."

"Did you hear everything clearly?"

After describing the contents of his plan, Mara made another special emphasis at the end.

I'm afraid something will happen when the time comes.

Mainly because he failed to complete the task assigned by Renault before, which made him very guilty, but Renault gave him such a good opportunity to make up for his mistakes, so he must complete it successfully no matter what, and resolutely live up to the trust of the legion commander.

"Please rest assured, sir, and promise to complete the mission."

As the twenty captains of large battleships made assurances in unison, they ended the call and began to command their respective battleships to launch an attack on the Melan Star.

In addition, several other small warships flew out from the God of War and chose another route to fly quickly towards the location of the Red Rock Star.

After all, the star gate is a very precise thing. It only requires a small external attack to render it useless. Even repairing it will take a long time. Therefore, a battleship that is too large is definitely not suitable for such things as sneak attacks.

As for Kuni, after he successfully arrived at the Melan Star in a battleship, he reported the matter immediately.

When the relevant person in charge of Molan Star learned about the matter, he did not know the seriousness of the matter, so he immediately ordered several planetary defense fortresses around Molan Star to be put into the highest alert state.

And immediately requested help from the headquarters and asked the fleet to provide immediate assistance.

Just when they were almost ready, the enemy fleet was finally discovered in the monitoring equipment.

From the surface, the enemy has a total of twenty large warships, plus a hundred medium-sized warships, and countless small warships.

Although this configuration puts a lot of pressure on the Red Rock Galaxy, it is not impossible to resist. As long as reinforcements from other civilizations arrive, it will not be a problem.

However, what is surprising is that the shapes of these battleships are extremely unfamiliar and do not seem to be products of the Milky Way.

In this case, thinking of the Clay Empire civilization of the Andromeda Galaxy that was previously disclosed by the solar system, everything seems to suddenly become clear.

Although it is really hard to believe, the facts are right in front of you.

Even Cooney couldn't help but have a strange look on his face after seeing this scene. He didn't expect that what the solar system said three years ago would come true.

Thinking that there are still many civilizations outside the solar system questioning the solar system, thinking that the Clay Empire is false news, and even thinking that this is deliberately created by the solar system to control the entire galaxy, I really don’t know what these people think when they see such a scene. What will be the reaction?

But the ones who are most panicked and busy at the moment are definitely the members of the Hongyan Star Central District.

The galactic crisis that the solar system mentioned before has really happened, and the first one to suffer is their red rock galaxy. If a plan cannot be formulated as soon as possible to overcome this crisis, it will very likely lead to the extinction of the entire civilization.

For this reason, the relevant members rushed to the headquarters to attend the emergency meeting as soon as possible. Even Shiro, who had retired for many years, was invited back to participate in the meeting.

Mainly, this emergency meeting is of great importance, related to the life and death of the entire Red Rock Galaxy civilization. Ordinary members like them are not qualified to bear such great pressure to make decisions. Hero must take the lead.

But little did they know that the enemies they saw were only a very small part of them.
