NOVPUBChapter 1032: Chapter 1027 Trouble 3_1 Chapter 1032 -1027 Trouble 3_1 The distance between these planetary systems is very close, unlike the vast expanses of the Solar System, so it’s quite normal to see several stars from the surface of a planet.
And now, Finn Lewis and his team were located on the periphery of the ** System, where, according to their original plan, reaching a place like this would have taken at least a week’s time.
But they had arrived here in just a few hours, and the enemy had abandoned all outer defenses to contract inward.
This clearly indicated that the enemy had discovered the situation and made ample preparations inside.
“How is it?” Upon stepping onto the command center of the Spear of the Sun, where Lucy Watson was, Finn Lewis immediately asked.
The Spear of the Sun’s characteristics made it unsuitable for battle.
There was no choice; it was the only warship the Cloud Spirits had, and Sekata Brown wouldn’t let it directly join the fray, as that could likely cause damage.
...
Moreover, the Cloud Spirits’ method of combat was different from that of ordinary people; they needed to engage in spacetime jumps to fight, meaning they required a stable rear base, which, no doubt, was provided by the Spear of the Sun.
It had to be equipped with various types of buildings and military units, ready to warp at any moment.
Inside the Spear of the Sun were not only a variety of factories but also various building materials.
It had to be said, these were the strengths of the Cloud Spirits.
Furthermore, the Cloud Spirits were not entirely incapable of combat in space.
For instance, on this occasion, they dispatched a strong detachment of their fleet.
Consisting of their unique carriers and storm warships, the special mixed fleet, although its warships weren’t as large as the human warships, should not be underestimated in power.
The two sides adopted different modes of combat, of course, but this was only a detachment fleet, only capable of playing some special roles.
The main force was still the human warships.
Since the Cloud Spirits were few in number, they could only perform such tasks.
However, fortunately, the scale of combat in the Heritage System was not very large.
If it expanded further, it was estimated that they couldn’t assume the role of main combat capability.
“Currently, the enemy is mainly gathered near the ** star domain.
Right now, we do not know what the enemy is planning and dare not proceed rashly.
They have established a defensive line in this area,” Lucy Watson promptly briefed Finn Lewis.
As Lucy Watson briefed them, a circle was immediately drawn on the starmap in front of Finn Lewis and his team, creating a defensive line deep within the ** star domain, about two-thirds of the way in, beyond which they could not penetrate for now.
“Is it impossible to discern what the enemy is up to?” Finn Lewis pondered for a moment before asking.
“Currently, all probes we’ve released have been destroyed by the enemy.
What we can confirm now is that the enemy has deployed a large number of static defense systems.
Most of them are established on asteroids and planets.
There are very few satellite orbital defense systems.
The ** star domain, because it has gathered a lot of large stars, and the gravitational forces among these stars are chaotic, means apart from some large planets, other minor planets can hardly exist, as they are pulled into pieces by the gravitational forces, making the asteroid belt in this area quite extensive.”
“And the flight patterns of these asteroids are highly unpredictable, making the flying environment here extremely complex.
In addition to what I just mentioned about gravity, the gravitational forces here are very chaotic.
Although ships have powerful engines, even the most powerful engines can’t contend against the gravitational forces between celestial bodies.
If we venture into an unknown gravity turbulence, it would present a fatal threat to warships,” Lucy Watson introduced the situation to Finn Lewis.
“Any suggestions?” Finn Lewis looked at Lucy Watson and asked.
“Yes,” replied Lucy Watson simply, nodding her head.
“Go on.”
“Here.” Lucy Watson pointed decisively with the baton in her hand to a spot on the starmap.
Following her action, the spot quickly enlarged.
Finn Lewis looked and immediately discovered it to be a sun—or rather, a star.
