Chapter 139: Enemies Trapped (1)

“Haha, useless —!”

Kether laughed heartily. Behind his fleet, there were over five hundred warships that had been left behind.

At first, he had issued an order to destroy the enemy warships, but he quickly realized this was not feasible.

Most of the warships pursuing from Zhao Yu’s side were escort ships, formed into groups of 500, easily intercepting all attacks.

Seeing this, Kether simply stopped thinking about destroying these warships and continued with his previous plan, beginning to break through.

At this moment, he shared the same feelings as the 10th shuttle ship had previously.

Despite the enemy fleet clearly outnumbering theirs, they were able to maneuver as if in unoccupied territory.

“Awesome!”

“There is nothing more satisfying than capturing the enemy’s head in the midst of thousands of soldiers!”

What they were doing now was breaking through the blockade of fifty thousand warships and heading straight for Earth.

“The enemy fleet has entered the second encirclement…”

Uncle Da calculated the distance and speed of both fleets, and said: “Commander, if our fleet is set to maximum speed now, we can quickly encircle them, making escape impossible…”

“Have we blocked their retreat?”

“It has been blocked. There are already three thousand warships in place behind the enemy…”

Zhao Yu brought his fingers together, nodding and said: “Then let’s close the net!”

The enemy’s nine warships chose a straight route to Earth, which initially caused some confusion for Zhao Yu. In his caution, he insisted on forming two encirclement layers, ensuring foolproof security.

“Yes!”

Uncle Da no longer hesitated, quickly conveying the orders.

Suddenly, over fifty thousand warships demonstrated their real speed, visibly reducing the distance to the enemy warships.

” Captain, there’s a situation!!”

Beep ~! Beep ~!

On the big screen, the enemy warships, which were originally very far away, suddenly increased their speed by 20 times. It looked like they were about to encircle them.

“How is this possible?!”

Ketherr’s eyes were about to pop out, “What’s their spaceship’s speed?!”

“Almost the same as ours…”

“Impossible!”

He screamed in surprise: “They clearly only have late-stage Level 1 technology, how can they be so fast?!”

“shit, Captain, we’ve been tricked, they’ve been pretending all along, this speed, they must have a particle black hole engine…”

“Retreat, retreat, retreat quickly!”

Startled, Kether quickly issued the retreat command.

With equal technological levels, the enemy had fifty thousand warships and they only had nine. This was basically a suicide mission!

“We can’t escape, all our routes have been locked down…”

It was like a game of Go. They seemed to have a large area to move around, but in reality, they were already on a dead end. As long as the enemy methodically completed the blockade, they could be annihilated.

“That’s impossible, even if they disguised their technology, their speed is only equivalent to ours, we could break in before, we can escape now…” Kether screamed.

“Captain, it’s not as simple as that. We could break in before because the speed of their spaceships seemed only one-twentieth of ours. Now, with equivalent speeds, we can’t escape the way we came in…”

“And moreover, most of the enemy warships are escort ships, mainly using laser beams with a wide radiation range…”

In space battles, being surrounded by escort ships is the worst scenario. It’s like being wrapped in a dumpling, there’s no way to escape.

But this only applies when the technological levels of the two sides are similar. They dared to charge in because they thought the enemy’s technology was only at Level 1. If they had known it was at Level 2, they definitely wouldn’t have ventured in.

“Hit them with all our firepower, let’s break a path!!!” Kether shouted.

The crew didn’t dare to say anything more, and kept operating, trying to find a way out.

But the computing power of the computer on their spaceship was limited. Fear of robotic rebellion added further restrictions to the programming. Compared to Uncle Da’s side, the difference in computing power was very obvious.

“It should be fine, right…”

Zhao Yu stared at the screen, speaking somewhat nervously.

On the screen, the enemy’s nine warships chose to break through at the weakest point of the encirclement.

“Commander, rest assured, this is a trap. It seems to be the weakest defense, but in reality, it’s the strongest…”

Uncle Da gave a faint smile, magnified the star chart scale, and the warships in the second layer of encirclement started to change formation, like a crocodile opening its huge mouth, waiting for its prey to hook itself.

“That’s good…”

Zhao Yu nodded slightly.

In the star chart, the enemy obviously didn’t want to fall here. The nine warships opened fire together, attacking in one direction non-stop.

As for their own warships, they were not in a hurry to attack. They dodged attacks they could and intercepted those they couldn’t.

Some of the closer warships maintained the same speed as the enemy’s nine warships at a distance of 300,000 kilometers.

The farther warships, however, kept adjusting their routes according to the enemy’s trajectory. The longer the time dragged on, the more warships would eventually join the encirclement, and the less chance the enemy had to survive.

“Impossible!”

“How can their encirclement be so perfect?!”

A subordinate murmured to himself. Hearing this, Captain Kether quickly grabbed his collar, anxiously inquiring about the situation.

“Captain, under these circumstances, I’ve loosened some restrictions on the computer to find a way out, but the enemy…”

“Every single one of their warships must have an unrestricted computer…”

Hearing this, Kether panicked, yelling loudly, “Unleash all computer permissions, find a way out for us!”

“Captain, to unlock all permissions, we need the ship captain’s command…”

Kether angrily shouted, “Idiot, I’m about to die here, who needs any commands! Unleash it quickly, do you all want to die?!”

Hearing this, the subordinate came to his senses. After some operations, the computer’s program lock was released, and the computational power was fully unleashed.

“How’s it going? Is there a way out?!”

Kether nervously asked.

However, the more the subordinate operated, the thicker the fear on his face became.

“Slap-!”

Seeing that the subordinate remained silent for a long time, Kether slapped him without a word. After waking him up, he pressed, “I’m asking you, is there away out?!”

The subordinate trembled, stammering, “Captain, we’re done for…”

“According to the calculations, the computing power on each of their ships is no less than ours…”

“Even more, somewhere unknown, there’s a horrifyingly powerful computer far beyond imagination that has blocked all our routes…”

“This is impossible, this is space, how can they have such computing power…” Kether said, unable to believe it.

“Captain, we used to have such computing power, but because we couldn’t solve the problem of robot awakening, we’ve been restricting it…”

As he spoke, the number of ships outside the first encirclement was increasing, already more than ten thousand.

Kether felt a chill in his heart, asking, “Just tell me, can we survive?”

“We can’t survive…”

The cabin fell silent.

Kether sighed deeply. As if accepting his fate, he looked up in the direction of Pluto, murmuring, “Moro, although 1 didn’t destroy the Earth for you, I’ve managed to probe the strength and weakness of your enemies…”

“Send down the command, when the enemy warships gather, let’s take them down with us….”
