Chapter 490 Are we really rivals?

"Unknown energy fluctuations were detected and the information is being determined..."

"There is a special situation in the Kuiper Belt. Immediately let all devices carry out targeted scanning to make sure we know the number of enemies."

…

"The space early warning device screen was captured successfully."

"Image transmission..."

"alarm!"

"alarm!"

"Signal lost!"

In the Neptune orbit space monitoring station in the solar system, the person in charge looked at the alarm screen flashing on the screen of the monitoring equipment, and his face instantly darkened.

Almost without any hesitation, he immediately shouted to the surrounding staff: "Try to re-establish information connections with the monitoring devices in the Kuiper Belt. We must know who the enemy we are facing is."

"It's Director Wang."

Everyone is obviously aware of the seriousness of this matter, and all personnel have solemn faces.

Quickly issue commands on the console and try to re-establish a new connection with the monitoring device.

As early as thirty years ago, the civilizations in the Milky Way were ready for war, knowing that the Andromeda Galaxy, which is more than two million light years away from the Milky Way, would take the initiative to provoke a full-scale war.

Therefore, every civilization is always on guard against enemy invasion.

As the solar system is the birthplace of human civilization and Xu Lei's home planet, it naturally takes this matter more seriously than other civilizations.

Nowadays, given the status of human civilization in the Milky Way, no civilization dares to enter the solar system.

The newly deployed monitoring devices in the Kuiper Belt cannot be destroyed at the same time, so there must be the intervention of external factors. Even if you think about it with your heels, you know that there is an enemy coming towards the solar system.

As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy means you will be victorious in any battle. If you can understand the enemy's strength in advance, you can formulate targeted response plans, which will undoubtedly increase the chances of winning on the human side.

That's why the center director of the space monitoring station urgently wanted to get the transmission picture.

Unfortunately, the final result was not good news.

While he was anxiously waiting for the results, the voice of the on-site personnel rang in his ears again: "Report to Director Wang, all monitoring devices have been offline."

"Have the images captured by the device been transmitted?" Director Wang was suddenly startled and quickly walked to the other party, asking with a very eager look on his face.

Perhaps he had never seen his director behave like this before. While the employee was surprised, he did not dare to hesitate.

He immediately answered truthfully: "Because all the devices disconnected the signal at the same time, only a few images were transmitted back." At the end of the sentence, his voice became lower and lower, and he did not dare to look directly into Director Wang's eyes.

I feel deeply guilty for failing to do my job well.

Although he did not hear the answer he wanted, Director Wang did not dare to delay at this time and issued new instructions without any hesitation.

"Bring out the image first."

"OK."

Facing the director's order, the operator nodded, then sat down again and hurriedly projected the several received images onto the main monitoring screen.

Almost as soon as these images appeared, everyone including Director Wang suddenly took a breath.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyes were full of fear.

It's not that he lacks determination. After all, if he can work at a space monitoring station at the edge of the solar system, his personal abilities will definitely not be much worse.

The scene shown in the main image is really shocking.

It's even a little unacceptable.

"Hiss~"

"How is this possible?"

Director Wang was the first to come back to his senses, his eyes still fixed on the images on the screen, and he couldn't help but question them one after another.

Soon the operator also reacted, his eyes also full of disbelief.

"What kind of torrent of battleships is this? Isn't the number a bit too much?"

As his words fell, everyone immediately started talking, and many operators present expressed their feelings at the moment.

"Is this the civilization fleet of the Andromeda Galaxy? They have actually arrived at the outer reaches of the solar system!"

"With such a powerful fleet, can we really be our opponents?"

"Judging from these images alone, the number of enemy warships has reached thousands, which is really shocking."

"Omaika, my God!"

…

What the monitoring equipment in the Kuiper Belt captured was the Imperial fleet group led by Reno and Krippen. Even if only a few images were transmitted, it could be analyzed that the number of enemy warships was thousands.

And they are all medium to large warships.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if the Milky Way has gone all out to produce the Divine Star Destroyer in recent years, the number of large battleships in the Andromeda Galaxy will at most be about the same.

There is still a huge gap between medium-sized battleships.

The key point now is that this huge interstellar force is not fighting against civilizations in the entire galaxy, but simply against the solar system.

Everyone knows that the solar system is equivalent to being on the outskirts of the Milky Way. If the Andromeda Galaxy wants to attack the Milky Way, it should first attack the central area and implement the principle of blasting the center and advancing in all directions.

But now that we have unknowingly entered the Kuiper Belt on the outer reaches of the solar system, it is obvious what our purpose is.

Although the solar system has established three security defense rings and deployed space blockade devices, currently only the Alliance's first and second fleets are stationed in the system.

Among them, the Third Fleet is still stationed in the Pioneer Galaxy to protect the safety of the civilization there.

At the end of the day, there are only about two hundred Divine Star Destroyers.

If there are only large battleships, that's it. With the blessing of the twin plasma cannons and various auxiliary devices of the Divine Star Destroyer, it can compete with the large battleships of the Andromeda Galaxy.

The key opponent still has so many medium-sized warships, and it is difficult to gain an advantage under ship-to-sea tactics.

It can only be said that the Andromeda Galaxy is indeed an old civilization, and its foundation is indeed stronger than that of the Milky Way.

At least there are not tens of thousands of medium-sized battleships in the entire galaxy.

Looking at the problem from this perspective alone, it is true that there is almost no possibility for the solar system to gain an advantage.

Even if you can't hold on for long, the enemy may break through the defense line and cause the entire civilization to disappear from the universe.

In the face of such a huge gap, even with Xu Lei, the backbone of mankind, there is no guarantee that everyone is willing to believe it.

I believe that the solar system can successfully withstand the enemy's attack.

I believe that the Milky Way can achieve final victory.

But at this moment, as the director of the Space Monitoring Center, Wang Zhipeng broke out in a cold sweat.

It's just that he was not frightened by the Andromeda Galaxy fleet, but was afraid that if everyone continued to discuss it, people would panic and change from a fighting faction to a capitulation faction that everyone hated.

Almost as soon as this thought came to his mind, he immediately calmed down and shouted in a voice that everyone present could hear: "As the elite of mankind and working here, when did you become afraid of the enemy before fighting?

.”

"If anyone dares to spread any negative remarks, I will immediately arrest him for the crime of betraying humanity."

Wang Zhipeng's sonorous and powerful voice reached everyone's ears. The staff who had just marveled at the number of enemy warships suddenly turned red and felt extremely ashamed of their thoughts just now.

Immediately, he didn't dare to say another word, causing the place to regain calm.

Seeing everyone's performance, Wang Zhipeng was satisfied and immediately issued the order.

"What are you still doing?"

"Immediately report the situation to the Earth-Planet Human Security Alliance Headquarters and the Galaxy Security Alliance Operations Center."

"We will continue to try to re-establish signal connections with the monitoring devices. We must master as much enemy information as possible."

"It's the director."

With this series of orders from Wang Zhipeng, it was like giving everyone a reassurance, and they immediately answered in unison.

Then return to the fighting state just now and quickly execute these commands.

Judging from the few images transmitted by chance and the loss of contact with the monitoring equipment in the Kuiper Belt, the enemy has probably taken action and is heading towards the solar system.

If a countermeasure is not formulated as soon as possible, no one can guarantee whether this will be a catastrophe for the solar system or even the Milky Way.

However, Wang Zhipeng is just the director of a small space monitoring station and does not have the strength and power to solve the crisis.

All that can be done is to report the situation to the superiors in a timely manner and then patiently wait for the order to be issued.

But it has to be said that during the waiting period, Wang Zhipeng was also suffering mentally.

Extremely nervous but also mixed with deep worry.

The space monitoring station he is responsible for is located in the star field near Neptune's orbit and is outside the solar system's first security defense ring. It can be said to be the closest to the enemy.

If you cannot evacuate in time and retreat to the defensive ring, the situation will be very critical.
