Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1855 - 901: Pioneering Resumes (Part 2)
Previously on Global Era of Star trekking...
The "Ghost Shadow Songstress" civilization, where each member appears as a stunning energy form, connects with stars via spiritual waves and spectral energy chants, controlling gravity and dark energy. Their society has achieved the peak of advanced levels, and their elite "Star Choir Army" can briefly release power nearing half-step myth.
Within the "Beiji Sea River System Cluster," they have formed an alliance with two formidable civilizations ("Melt Core Giant Beast" and "Crystal Language Clan"), positioning their primary fleet and the mightiest "Ghost Energy Resonance Array" at the perilous "Swan Song Corridor" inside the "Ghostly Vortex." Their goal is to halt the Torch Fleet from entering their territory using the natural defenses and joint strength.
The Three Empires' United Fleet, confronted by this blockade, had no choice but to engage. They first dispatched a vanguard unit to push through the corridor aggressively, only to face intense opposition right away.
The "Ghost Shadow Songstress" chants turned into solid energy surges, whipping up the chaotic energy and gravity distortions in the vortex, which disrupted the Vanguard Fleet's lineup and drastically cut their shooting accuracy.
Suddenly, the "Melt Core Giant Beast" burst from the nebula, employing its sturdy body and melting core blasts to strike the fleet's side.
The "Crystal Language Clan" strongholds kept releasing crystal prisms that bent and redirected energy shots, severely diminishing the Vanguard Fleet's offensive edge.
Multiple probing assaults got pushed back; even though superior ship capabilities let them eliminate many foe vessels, they took hits too, and progress crawled along.
Temporarily, the Ghost Shadow Songstress alliance's spirits lifted high, the "Ghost Energy Resonance Array" glow in the corridor's depths intensified, and the building energy posed a serious threat.
Noticing the shift, the United Command adjusted tactics without delay.
Song Yan stepped up, assigning the [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea] and the Heavenly Ruins Divine Court fleet to lead the charge, sparking the next phase of the space clash swiftly.
...
"Turn on the 'Clearing Force Field' at full strength! Focus on the energy chaos area up front!"
The [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea]'s frame lit up intensely, as the fiery field burst outward fast, pressing down vast stretches of energy storms and gravity twists, carving out a steadier firing ground for the fleet.
"Star River Ship group, focus your shots, hit the 'Crystal Language Clan' prisms 7 and 11 with everything! Star-Annihilating Starship squad, fan out to the flanks, block the 'Melt Core Giant Beast'! Fearless Ship team, send out puppet troops and drone attack waves, sweep away minor enemy craft!"
Commands flew into action smoothly; protected by the [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea]'s advanced field, the Torch Fleet unleashed its full arsenal.
Dozens of Star River Ships unleashed main guns together, a blinding stream of beams swallowing the aimed forts, shattering them into space debris.
Free from prism interference, the Torch Fleet's attacks turned lethal.
At the same time, [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea]'s vibrant superdimensional railgun fired once more, a red streak cutting across the stars, aimed straight at the massive "Ghost Energy Resonance Array" far inside the corridor.
Yet just then, thousands of "Ghost Shadow Songstress" in the "Star Choir" chanted as one, merging huge spectral energy and mental forces into the array, building a giant spinning ghost energy whirl shield that blocked the "World-Burning Furnace"'s devastating strike through raw power.
Though the whirl shield shook wildly and faded a lot, it endured in the end.
"Such a bother."
Song Yan's brow creased a bit, but he held off calling the Mythical Dragon Spine Dominator Whale into play. He understood well that this campaign served to grow the Torch Civilization's reach and base, while also serving as a drill for the Five Great Empires, gearing up for potential bigger turmoil ahead.
During the deadlock, the three-race coalition tried a comeback, with extra "Melt Core Giant Beasts" and "Ghost Shadow Songstress" carrier ships rising from the corridor's core.
As the coalition's push gained steam, a fierce spark lit in Song Yan's gaze; instead of pulling back, he commanded the fleet to stand firm, and linked comms with Ying Wei from the Immortal Qin Divine Dynasty and Wilson of the Holy Hall Federation.
"Ying Wei, Wilson..." Song Yan spoke steadily but urgently.
"The foes lean on the 'Ghost Energy Resonance Array' and the landscape, making their guards tougher than we thought. Pushing straight through would win, but it'd drag on, and losses would mount."
"I suggest [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea] charges head-on to draw the fire, while I ask you both to lead your fleets in sneaky moves through the 'Nebula Dark Surge Zone' and 'Gravity Lens Zone' in the 'Swan Song Corridor,' flanking and trapping their side and back carrier groups!"
Ying Wei's image appeared, his eyes sharp as bolts, scanning the star map before nodding at once:
"Fine, my Immortal Qin Fleet takes the Nebula Dark Surge Zone!"
Wilson nodded right along.
The three advanced captains synced up in a flash.
"[Fiery Flame Boiling Sea], push to max output! Keep the 'Clearing Force Field' going! Star River Ships, Star-Annihilating Starships, gear up for another all-out barrage! All support fleets, blast away and pin down the enemy line!" Song Yan's directives rang out across the Heavenly Ruins Divine Court Fleet's shared line.
In a blink, [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea] blazed like a sun, wild energy pulses warping the nearby stars.
A fiercer field rolled out, solidly countering the enemy's energy wave pushback; the huge superdimensional railgun up front flared with scary red glow again, gathering energy way beyond the last shot.
The three-race frontlines right away sensed crushing force, nearly every gun locked onto [Fiery Flame Boiling Sea].
The "Origin Starlight Shield" fired up anew, bracing for what looked like a final stand assault.
