章節 96: Chapter 12
Days later...
On the string dimension, the 200 ships of the Imperium is steadily moving in a normal cruising speed without any sense of urgency at all. None of the crew really took this matter seriously as evident by the Imperium just sending them to deal with it.
If the Imperium at the very least took everything about them at least a little bit more serious then they'll send a detachment with the auxiliary army of the Imperial Navy or at least those people in the actual Imperial Navy and not the Auxiliary.
The admiral of the whole Auxiliary army fleet has decided to just eliminate this small contingent of the enemy and get on with it. After eliminating this fleet, the enemy will surely be alerted and they'll converge their force on a large fleet to prevent another pick off.
When that happens, they'll just go home and make the enemy look like fools thinking they'll attack.
Surely the Imperium will forget about this whole matter and move on. The same can't really be said for the enemy so it's better to show a force and return home.
The specifications of how and why did this happened wasn't briefed to them as it's unnecessary. Why would they, the soldiers ask why a conflict happened. It's nonsense and shouldn't even be asked. They're soldiers and the specifics shouldn't concern them for their only job is to fight and fight, nothing more, nothing less.
The admiral just then restructured his tentacles to form human looking arms as he tapped on the screen in front of his admiral's chair on the command room.
"T minus 24 hundred. A day left before we fight those Inorganics." murmured the admiral as he looked at the screen monitoring their current trajectory which showed the real time path of their enemy and their current trajectory on the string dimension.
Right at this moment, a woman with long ceramic legs and arms whose head has all sorts of metals embedded on it. Her skin which can be seen on her face is a dull pinkish with a touch of maroonish freckles on the spot under her jawline which looked like fish scales has came.
She's a humanoid type of alien and a high tier citizen for she's on the Level 2 already and this war or whatever you'll call it will surely give her the trampoline to jump directly and become a full Level 1 citizen.
The admiral too is a level 2 citizen, well most of the higher ups and elite soldiers here are level 2 citizens and are merely using this war to add another factor or "experience points" to their tab so they'll eventually be a level 1 citizen.
Alpha Centauri...
The tri star system are as peaceful as ever. The nearest star system to Sol is devoid of any intelligent life, space station, or even alien ruins of past possible civilizations. This star system however will be the center of a battlefield against an otherworldly civilization and destroyers of civilizations. The battle will surely bring life and mystery to this seemingly unimportant star system.
The Citadel will feel the shaking of the space itself. They'll feel the power of something greater, something more powerful than all of them combined and multiplied to a billion.
And all they can do is watch in stupefied expression while trying to avoid the beast's attention being redirected to them.
"T minus 20 minutes." said the weird voice in the communication equipment as people started to rush on their battle stations. They'll catch the enemy off guard, that's a certainty.
Different species of aliens started to rush on different locations. Some manned the cannons and armed them, ready to fire once the order is given.
Some boarded their starfighters and readied it as the pilots clutched the wheels tightly. Their faces covered with a helmet and a visor cam be seen with intense fervour and expectations from this battle.
The assigned technicians or what you'll call a watered down version of technopriests are responsible for the systems checkups ensuring everything are great and will perform at their peak performance.
Back on Alpha Centauri, the fleet of the enemy Reaper ships has entered the Alpha Centauri system star system under a cloak which prevented anyone from seeing them.
But this level of cloaking is considered a children's toy on the Imperium. It can be seen on almost all children and it's nothing new nor impressive.
The fleet of the Reapers are by far a pretty large one even if they're only 500 in number. They have a good diversity of the number of limbs, glowing lights, and many more. The assimilated species design are retained on its core but the design of black exterior with weird looking ships are the norm.
They're a large machine intelligence, they move in deadly efficiency as they scan each planet for the signs of the so-called Imperium. Up until now, they failed.
But as they reached the star in the center of the whole tri star system, a large group of portals suddenly opened right directly behind them.
The machine intelligence was immediately alerted as it sent destroyers who turned around to intercept whatever will exit this portal.
The portals are something never before seen. It's reddish in color on the inside with a rather weird weird intertwining spaghetti looking strings in the outside whose color is gold.
The space around the whole Alpha Centauri star system looked like it suddenly froze. None moved, the destroyer ships of the Reapers aimed their powerful main cannons in the portals as they waited for whatever thing or whoever will exit the portal to blast them off of the face of the galaxy.
The scene is nerve racking if you're an organic but for the Reapers, they can do this all day.
Just then, the helm of a ship was seen protruding ine ach of the portal, it warped the very portal as the golden bull head was seen in front of the Reapers.
The destroyers immediately opened fire, laser fires after laser fires, destructive power of the lasers was put into full display as the energy shields of the ships cna be seem to ripple.
But the ships didn't even bothered as they almost took their time on exiting the portal without firing back. Most likely to flex to the enemy.
The energy ships of the Imperium battleships took a beating, they literally catched every single laser fire the enemy threw them but none was bothered as the lser fire almost didn't even did any inrepairable damages.
"Cantabrian Circle!" shouted the admiral in the communication equipment as suddenly portals surrounded the whole Reaper fleet who forced the capital ship to fire back on the portals, trying to see if it can destroy it. But that didn't happened as the portal just "munched" down on the laser fire and absorbed it.
Ships of all classes with the Apocalypse-class ships included can be seen exiting their own respective portals. They formed a cordon which prevented the enemy from escaping.
Slowly, they turned sideways to show their broadside cannons as per the order of the admiral.
The ships literally almost touched each other butt with their helm, that's how tight the whole cordon is.
The admiral, seeing this is satisfied as he finally gave the order to fire.
"Fire!"
200 ships, each witg powerful weapons of their own all fired their broadside cannon simultaneously as the bullets tore on the enemy like using a nuclear bomb to fry french fries...
