Chapter 228: Gravitational Singularity Weapon?

No hesitation at all.

Tens of thousands of spatial rifts, along with stronger spatial shockwave strikes, poured out all at once!

The three relay nodes responsible for supplying energy to the entire matrix formation didn't even have time to send an alarm.

They were instantly destroyed by this sudden strike!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Three deep, muffled 'explosions' from the energy level boomed inside the Silicon-based Union's formation.

And then a chain reaction occurred!

Centering on those three destroyed nodes, vast numbers of Silicon-based warships lost their energy supply, and their Spatial Shields vanished instantly,

Their engines instantly shut down, turning them into sitting ducks drifting in space!

The Silicon-based Union's matrix formation fell into chaos and showed gaps for the first time!

"Success!"

Inside the Federation Command Center, an irrepressible cheer burst out!

Qin Hao's plan succeeded!

They dealt a heavy blow to the Silicon-based Union giant with a perfect decapitation strike!

However, the joy didn't last long.

But Qin Hao's expression suddenly changed.

He abruptly looked up at the massive mechanical planet.

He felt a consciousness colder, more terrifying, and more furious than before awaken from the planet's core.

"Target locked."

"Activate… Annihilator Protocol."

"Annihilator Protocol."

These five words, transmitted over the Silicon-based Union's icy public channel, spread across the entire battlefield.

On the Allied Forces' side, no one knew what this meant.

But everyone felt an unprecedented sense of crisis enveloping the entire starry sky.

And just then, the Star Sea Divine Sect's fleet seized the moment of chaos in the Silicon-based Union's formation and launched a fierce counterattack.

Countless golden 'Holy Word Runes', formed from the power of faith, like a golden ocean, swept over the Silicon-based fleet.

These runes could not inflict direct physical damage.

But they could invade the Silicon-based Union's logic network like the most efficient virus.

"Hum—"

Silicon-based warships covered in golden runes showed obvious sluggishness and disorder in their actions.

Their attacks were no longer as precise.

Their defenses also developed various loopholes.

Faith, which the Silicon-based Union considered the most 'inefficient' and 'illogical' thing, became their most troublesome weapon at this moment.

This was the most direct clash between two different civilizations.

Theology was interfering with science.

However, just as the Allied Forces believed the tide of victory was beginning to turn in their favor,

The massive mechanical planet's surface split open two thousand even larger holes.

Two thousand brand-new drones, utterly unlike the previous 'Cleansers' and 'Scavengers', shot out from them!

They were the 'Annihilators'.

Their size rivaled that of humanity's Giant Spirit-class warships, each stretching thirty kilometers long.

Their bodies presented a dark gold hue, as if made of liquid metal.

Their shape was no longer a pure geometric structure,

but more like a ferocious metal beast brimming with killing intent.

Their heads were not disintegrating ray emitters, but a constantly rotating micro black hole compressed by spatial power!

"Alarm! Ultra-high-density gravitational source detected!"

"Their weapon… could it be a controllable black hole singularity?"

"This is definitely a fusion of gravitational and spatial technology!"

……

On the observation deck of the Federal Academy of Sciences, scientists like Qian Bowen stared at the returned data and exclaimed in disbelief.

To miniaturize the singularity weapon and routinely equip it on unmanned warships?

What terrifying technology this is!

This, then, is the true strength of a Third-level Civilization!

Thousands of Annihilators, like demons released from the abyss, surged straight into the enemy formation where the Giant Spirit fleet was wreaking havoc!

"All Giant Spirit warships! Retreat immediately! Activate Spatial Folding Shields at maximum power!"

Qin Hao's order was issued immediately.

But it was still a step too late.

One Annihilator locked onto three Giant Spirit warships that were concentrating fire on a Silicon-based warship squadron.

It instantly jumped near the Giant Spirit, and its head's micro singularity burst forth with terrifying gravity.

The space around those three Giant Spirit warships was forcibly twisted and pulled!

Their Spatial Folding Shields failed for the first time against this rule-level attack!

Spatial Shield, torn apart by gravity!

The ship's hull was stretched and deformed under terrifying gravity, finally compressed into a long, strip-shaped metal bar!

Even attempting warp travel and space jumps became impossible.

Because the surrounding space was severely disturbed, it was bound by powerful gravity.

Boom!

The three Giant Spirits, representing the pinnacle of Human Federal technology, together with all their crew, were just blown apart!

This scene was clearly transmitted back to the Federation Command Center via battlefield monitoring.

The Command Center, which had just been filled with cheers, instantly fell into dead silence.

Everyone's face was written with shock and a hint of fear.

Giant Spirit, killed in an instant!

Their proudest fleet appeared so fragile before the enemy's true strength.

"How... how could this happen...?"

Zhang Xianzhong's eyes almost burst; he could not accept this fact.

That was the Giant Spirit!

It was the strongest warship they could forge only by pouring their entire civilization's strength into it!

The appearance of the Annihilators instantly reversed the entire battlefield situation.

They are the natural nemesis of the Giant Spirit fleet.

They ignore the Space-folding Shield, and their attacks cannot be evaded.

The Giant Spirit fleet, those "ghosts" that jump through space,

before these "Annihilators," they are like newborn infants, utterly powerless to fight back.

One ship, two ships, ten ships...

Giant Spirits kept being torn apart by gravity under the Annihilators' pursuit, turning into clumps of space junk.

The Giant Spirit fleet fell into an unprecedented defeat!

"Qin Hao! Think of a way quickly!"

Zhou Shaoqing shouted anxiously over the comms.

His main fleet was also under immense pressure and could not spare any forces to support the Giant Spirit fleet.

If this continues, that ace fleet bearing all of humanity's hopes will be wiped out!

Qin Hao's face grew grim to the extreme.

His brain was racing madly.

He was analyzing the Annihilators' weakness.

Gravity weapons, though powerful, are not unsolvable.

Its energy consumption must be astronomical.

Moreover, maintaining a stable micro-singularity demands extraordinarily stringent control.

If we can disrupt its energy supply or break its control balance... there is a chance!

But to achieve that, relying on warships alone is no longer possible.

Conventional energy attacks will be swallowed by gravity.

Space-cutting is a joke before a singularity.

Unless...
