Star Lord: Rob the alien race and you will get a hundred times the reward

Chapter 115: Psychic Attack Destroys Logistics SupportChapter 115: Psychic Attack Destroys Logistics Support
The crisis of dimensional creatures has not been resolved yet, and new enemies have appeared. More importantly, only some traces of movement have been found, but they cannot be located. This means that the enemy can appear in most areas of the territory. The human alliance defense line cannot penetrate, but the star field can be opened up sideways.

”Space technology, dimensional technology, technological civilization above level seven? This means that the enemy is very likely to have a large number of rule-based warships. Is this an enemy we can deal with?” Liu Wen was overwhelmed. If it weren’t for the support of Tianhe’s first detachment, the dimensional creatures alone would have devoured them without leaving a trace. Now they are coming again, but they can’t do anything except defend and wait for help.

Although Yang Zhenshan felt a little bitter, he did not feel desperate. Even if he was defeated on all fronts, the Tianhe Division could take some personnel with them when they withdrew to the defense line. At worst, they could just give up the warships. They were of no use against enemies above level seven anyway.

What to do? This is the only question in their minds.

Xu Zemin asked with full of doubts: ”Logically speaking, the technology of the Human Alliance should not be unable to detect space fluctuations and dimensional energy, right? Even if there are equipment covering it, the tiny clues can determine a lot of things, right? How come they can’t even have a rough prediction of the enemy’s approximate number, combat objectives, and direction of advance!”

Yang Zhenshan explained: ”It’s not that the human alliance technology is not good, but this time the enemy has used technology that has never been demonstrated before, and there are many ways to induce. The human alliance needs more time to analyze and study. If we rashly remind the guessed target, it may cause fatal misleading to us who are fighting on the front line. Therefore, it is correct to remind the enemy and provide guesses.”

Liu Wen waved his hands. It was useless to say these things now. ”Let’s not worry about where these enemies are and what they want to do. Whether they come or not, it doesn’t matter to us. The dimensional creatures in front of us are already deadly. One more will only reduce the time we can delay.”

”Besides, such a dangerous enemy is what the main force of the Human Alliance needs to face. I guess they won’t be in the mood to deal with us with such a small amount of meat.”

Xu Zemin and Yang Zhenshan looked at each other. It seemed to be true. From the name of the non-staff army, it could be seen that it was different from the regular fleet of the Allied Forces. With a fleet of the same size, they could beat the fleets put together by the lords.

In addition, as humans’ old rivals, they are naturally very clear about the role of developing star fields. Their existence itself serves as bait and a buffer zone.

Since the human layout is clear, it would not be worth the risk to attack the pioneer lords at the risk of being exposed. After all, even if all the pioneer lords are destroyed, there will be no loss for the Human Alliance. In a few decades, new pioneer lords will appear to fill the pioneer star field.

So from this aspect, they don’t have to be afraid or worried at all. At least before these enemies go to war with the Human Alliance, they will most likely not target them specifically. As for after the war, no one will allow a powerful fleet to remain on their own line.

”Then let’s put it down first?” Yang Zhenshan asked the two of them.

”No matter what, let’s solve the problem at hand first. If it doesn’t work, find a subspace to hide in and wait until the war subsides before coming out.” Liu Wen was already thinking about the surrounding subspace. Of course, this was a last resort and he could easily be judged as a deserter and sent to a military court.

Xu Zemin shrugged and called up the defense system structure diagram of the joint fleet headquarters. More than a dozen defense lines were built within a diameter of five light years. The densely packed deployment of various types of weapons was so much that it made people’s scalp tingle. It was a real multinational brand, with weapons from alien civilizations and human territories. Just integrating them together made the designer’s hair fall out.

”Commander, the firepower of our defense line is probably still a little weak, especially in terms of long-range firepower. The number of fortress artillery is seriously insufficient. It cannot cover the entire territory, which means there are weaknesses that can be targeted.”

Yang Zhenshan on the side was also seeing this kind of defense line for the first time. The many defensive turrets seemed to be thrown down casually. The only advantage was that they left shooting windows to avoid hitting their own people.

”The number of fortress cannons is indeed a bit small. These are the few weapons that can cause damage to dimensional creatures above level seven. With concentrated fire, they can also consume a lot of the opponent’s energy.”

Liu Wen spread his hands and said, ”No more, really no more. Apart from the defensive firepower of each territory, all the fortress cannons are concentrated here. It takes them half a day to dismantle the ones they use, and there is no time to transport them here for installation. Moreover, those territorial forces cannot really not have any powerful defensive weapons, otherwise it would be the same as giving them away for free. Now we can at least delay the time of some scattered dimensional creatures and force them to concentrate their forces to attack us.”

”I heard that the commander has two subspace industrial zones with a complete six-level industrial system. So, can they develop and manufacture more high-powered disposable weapons for use on the defense line?” Xu Zemin asked Liu Wen, with a hint of questioning in his tone.

Liu Wen looked at Xu Zemin in surprise as he suddenly changed his attitude, wondering where the news leaked out. The Bonucci Industrial Zone has always been a secret, and not many people in the territory know about it. There are even fewer immigrants, and they all serve the research institutes and factories.

Regardless of whether the other party is really sure that there are two, he still has to deny it: ”Where did you get this information? I only have one industrial zone, how can there be two?”

Xu Zemin was not in a position to say that his intelligence personnel had immigrated there. He had intelligence personnel stationed not only in Liu Wen’s Xinghai territory, but also in all the developed territories in Area B. All the old lords were doing this, and it was almost an open secret.

But I can’t admit it myself. There is nothing wrong with sending intelligence personnel to human territory to obtain intelligence. After all, humans themselves are competitors.

But once you publicly admit it, you will become the target of public criticism and be excluded and targeted by all human lords. After all, you have blatantly admitted to sending intelligence personnel to human territory. Should I conduct an internal investigation and purge, and then fight back?
Each lord has to do even superficial work. Doing so is tantamount to isolating himself from the circle of pioneering lords, and his future development will inevitably be greatly restricted.

Xu Zemin really wanted to slap himself, wondering why he suddenly said that. But before he could finish this thought, he was immediately occupied by other thoughts. He felt angry that Liu Wen had snatched away his position as the commander of the army group.

Liu Wen suddenly spoke up at this time: ”General Xu, your territory has been established for more than 150 years, and you have experienced a war of counterattack by alien races. Logically, you should have a lot of money, but why do you only have 15 legions of troops? This is not commensurate with the territory of three star systems and four subspaces!”

Yang Zhenshan was originally very puzzled when he saw the two people suddenly becoming full of hostility. Both of them were lords with great ambitions. One had experienced ups and downs for more than a hundred years, and the other could hold hundreds of alien civilizations firmly in his hands and make them work for him. How could they suddenly become so hostile to each other? There was no conflict of interest between the two!

Just as he was about to persuade the two to put the overall situation first, the staff below started arguing for some reason, and the scope of the quarrel became wider and wider, and the work of the command center almost came to a standstill.

Yang Zhenshan realized something was wrong at this time, and hurriedly used his authority to overclock the mental barrier and rule shielding, and turned on the inhibitor, forcibly pulling back everyone who was about to enter the boxing match.

”You two should be calm. There is a spiritual force sneaking in to interfere. If you have any prepared spiritual shielding equipment, turn it on immediately.” Yang Zhenshan used his spiritual power to suppress and isolate a space.

Liu Wen frowned and looked at the noisy staff. Although Yang Zhenshan acted promptly, the disturbed mind would not subside in a short time, and there were still residual effects.

After Xu Zemin woke up, he broke out in a cold sweat. Being able to silently penetrate through layers of defense and affect their minds, the enemy must have either entered the fortress or was an invincible strongman.

Without too much time to think, the two of them quickly joined forces to authorize the activation of all defenses. Liu Wen was even preparing to transfer Shirley back. She was the only person in his hands who practiced spiritual power and had a more sensitive perception of spiritual power.

But it would take time for Shirley to return to the command center, and now they couldn’t be sure whether the person who was interfering with their minds was still there, where he was, and what he would do next. Therefore, Liu Wen simply ordered all staff to enter the safety cabin, and the intelligent center took over the command center.

”Everyone listen, I am issuing an order in the name of the army group commander. Everyone enter the safe cabin immediately. The intelligent center will take over the fortress group. Activate all defense equipment, activate all detection equipment, activate the second emergency plan, and armed robots will take over internal defense. Activate the psychic silencing plan!”

The series of commands made many people unable to react, but when everyone’s weapons and psychic energy were silenced by the suppression field and countless armed robots appeared in every corner, they hurriedly ran to their own safety cabins and lay down in them.

”Commander Yang, can you sense where the spiritual power comes from?” Liu Wen asked.

Yang Zhenshan opened his eyes, shook his head gently and said, ”My telepathy is pretty good among psychics of the same level, but it’s insignificant in front of people who specialize in psychic power. I can barely protect myself, but I can’t do reverse positioning.”

Xu Zemin clenched his fists: ”What should we do next? This kind of mind interference ability is more powerful than many queen insects. If we can’t get it out first, then our entire command center will be paralyzed. How can we fight this battle?”

”Calling Tianhe Unit 1, calling Tianhe Unit 1, this is the command center. We are experiencing strong mental interference and are now in an emergency state. We are unable to effectively command the fleet. Please ask Tianhe Unit 1 to return to the Joint Headquarters immediately to take over the defense system.”

”Repeat, this is the command center, we are encountering ...”

After three consecutive calls, there was no response as if a stone fell on the sea.

The hearts of the three people were rolling down the hillside like rolling stones. The possibility of the Tianhe Division being completely wiped out was almost zero. Then there was only one reason why there was no feedback in the communication. The communication with the joint headquarters was cut off. However, when the projection was turned on, the information from the battlefield was still being transmitted back, and the intelligent center did not detect anything wrong.

The three of them looked at each other and thought of a terrible possibility.

”I’ll do it!” Yang Zhenshan gritted his teeth, nodded at the two of them and closed his eyes. Spiritual energy surged throughout his body, and his mental power created ripples like a stone dropped into the water.

Liu Wen and Xu Zemin clenched their fists and stared at Yang Zhenshan, watching his burly body gradually become transparent under the expansion of the spiritual energy flame, and finally turn into little particles of light and dissipate in front of them.

I don’t know how long it took, but the hearts of Liu Wen and Xu Zemin seemed to be covered by layers of veils and gradually became closed. All kinds of thoughts burst out of their minds like a blowout. The volcano of anger accumulated strength, and even though the two tried their best to suppress it, it was still thriving.

”Wake up! Come here! Come!”

A loud shout penetrated through layers of space and reached deep into the hearts of the two people. Suddenly, the two people seemed to be pulled out of the water when they were drowning. Their eyes were shining and all the cells in their bodies were breathing the air happily.

When the two were able to see again and their telepathy returned, they discovered that Yang Zhenshan had been lying in front of them, dying. His spiritual energy was swaying in the wind like a small flame, and it looked like it could go out at any time.

”Sure enough, we were pulled into the spiritual space from the beginning, our telepathy was blocked, and we are sinking into the spiritual abyss!” Xu Zemin stepped forward to check on the dying Yang Zhenshan. After checking that it was just a deep sleep caused by excessive mental consumption, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But Liu Wen discovered a very bad scene at this time. The command center was already a river of blood, and thousands of staff members were fighting bloody battles below. All kinds of broken limbs were everywhere. All kinds of equipment in the command center were completely destroyed. Only their command platform was intact because of a thick energy barrier.

He urgently connected to the intelligent center, and an even more unbelievable scene appeared in front of him. The defense system that had been established for several years and jointly built by hundreds of territories and alien civilizations was now attacking each other. A large number of defense equipment was smashed into pieces, and countless logistics spacecraft collided with each other and were blown into gorgeous fireworks by the detonation of reactors.

”Intelligent center, cut off all manual control programs, take over all spacecraft and defense equipment, terminate the reactor, lock the weapon system, clean up the battle debris, and rescue the injured personnel.”

Within a radius of five light years, hundreds of thousands of logistics support ships were destroyed, a large number of logistics personnel were killed or injured, countless defensive weapons were destroyed, and the defense system of more than ten layers almost collapsed.

”Who on earth did it!” Liu Wen gritted his teeth in hatred. He could accept the death of many crew members on the front line, but he really could not accept the blood of hundreds of thousands of staff members and tens of millions of logistics support personnel in the rear being shed under the starry sky.

The joint headquarters, which stored most of the logistical supplies for humans and aliens, was captured so easily, and the defense system that was built with great effort and at great cost collapsed in an instant.

Especially the loss of logistics personnel. These are high-tech jobs. The crew members can go on board to work after emergency training, but the logistics personnel need a lot of time to train before they can be qualified and provide strong logistical support for the fleet. But now they are all gone!

Without logistical support, a fleet, no matter how powerful it is, is just a grasshopper in autumn. How long can it jump?

The fuel problem alone is enough to ground all the warships. Without engineers, it would be impossible to even convert the reactor into a heavy fusion reactor, let alone an antimatter reactor.

Without energy supply, how can we meet the needs of tens of millions of warships by just drawing energy from stars?
Looking at the debris floating in the sky and the broken limbs in the command center, Liu Wen felt despair for the first time. The reason why the two of them were safe was not because the other party deliberately let them go, but because the other party’s main goal was to destroy the fleet’s logistics and command system.

Liu Wen and the other man were able to survive because Yang Zhenshan reacted promptly and used his mental power to intervene and protect them in time. However, he also paid a heavy price to wake them up and fell into a mental slumber. It was unknown how long it would take for him to wake up again.

”Command center, this is Tianhe Division 1. We have detected a huge spiritual force erupting in the joint headquarters. Is there any accident?”

Hearing the call from Tianhe Unit 1, Liu Wen came back to his senses. ”This is the command center. I am Commander Liu Wen. The Joint Headquarters has been attacked by an unknown psychic. The logistics support department has been completely wiped out, and 70% of the logistics supplies have been damaged. The command center has been paralyzed. Please send Tianhe Unit 1 back to the Joint Headquarters immediately to eliminate the unknown psychic enemy.”
