Chapter 274 - Chapter 674

 This was already the fourth wave of Null Point Bombs.

After a full ten minutes, the void... stabilized again.

Sensing the energy in his body, he found that he had consumed nearly forty percent of it. Even Haig was a little exhausted at this moment.

Although the energy consumption was less than half, it was already very exaggerated.

Could it be that the humans could keep releasing these things endlessly?

Right now, he could rely on the defensive barrier to resist, but when his energy was depleted, he could only use his body to resist.

Although the physical body of a tier-9 creature was very strong and would not die even if it was within the range of the Null Point Bombs, it was inevitable that it would be injured.

This was also unacceptable to Haig!

To be honest, Haig still had a way to deal with this kind of weapon, so there was no need for him to act like an iron fool and resist it here.

The most important thing was that if Douglas was here and he cooperated with him, they could blow up the self-destructing spaceship the moment it appeared. There was no need to resist at all!

So, should he lead the entire fleet to retreat first and wait for Douglas to recover before attacking again?

After the fourth wave of Null Point Bombs, Haig could not help but have the idea of strategic retreat, and he was very tempted.

However, before he could make the final decision, the fifth Null Point Bomb Carrier had already exited the hyperspace and started the detonation procedure.

"Damn it!"

Haig, who reacted a beat slower, could only raise the defensive barrier again, preparing to block the Null Point Bombs that had already begun to detonate several AUs away.

In just a moment, the entire void was once again swallowed by the space turbulence caused by the Null Point Particles!

-----

"Commander, this is already our last Null Point Bomb Carrier!"

Seeing that the fifth Null Point Bomb had been detonated, and from the data, even if it detonated this time, it would not be able to hurt Haig, the adjutant was a little anxious.

She could not understand what her commander meant. After this round of bombardment, the fleet's trump card would only be the thousand or so Null Point Missiles.

But the point was that Null Point Missiles were not easy to deal with, let alone Haig, even a tier-6 creature. How could she not be anxious?

She could not really let the fleet rush up and fight with the enemy at close range, could she?

However, at the next moment, the adjutant heard Lin Kexin's muttering.

"Tsk … Is this guy that tolerant?"

"Commander?"

"It's nothing. I was just thinking that if this guy doesn't leave after this, then I'll have a headache!"

"Ah … Could it be?"

The adjutant was dumbfounded, but he soon understood what Lin Kexin meant.

After all, under the Federation's current system, no one who could stand in this position was an idiot.

Previously, Lin Kexin didn't say anything, so he didn't understand. But now, after hearing Lin Kexin's words, if he still didn't understand, then he should quit his job.

"No wonder the commander requested for a one-minute gap between each use of the Zero Point Bomb!"

But understanding was one thing. After this bombardment, could the enemy really retreat?

After all, no matter how one put it, the fact was that after five rounds of bombardment, the opponent still hadn't suffered any damage. He had only exhausted his energy!

The adjutant believed that it was possible to completely exhaust the enemy's energy and force them to flee.

But to achieve this goal by exhausting less than half of the enemy's energy, just as Lin Kexin said, it was a gamble!

What if the other party was a very rash and stupid person …?

Then it was almost impossible to succeed.

So … he hoped that the enemy was smart, the smarter the better!

The adjutant couldn't help but hope so.

However, what the adjutant didn't know was that Haig, who was using all his strength to block the Zero Point Bomb, had already made up his mind. After this round of bombardment, he would take advantage of the one-minute gap to escape immediately!

Moreover, Haig had already ordered all the leader-class creatures on the frontline to open up a space tunnel and start a strategic retreat …

-----

On the bridge of the Luoshen, Lin Kexin, who was looking at the moving battlefield model, suddenly had a glint in her eyes.

Originally, under Haig's orders, the various races had found the closest location to the Fearless Fleet and were continuously sending troops to the 100 AU area around the fleet …

Now, they had stopped sending troops and were retreating.

Of course, the adjutant standing at the side also saw the report. She knew very well what the Purgatory Legion's actions meant …

It meant that their commander had won the gamble, and that the Tier 9 individual would definitely retreat after this round of bombardment.

"Commander, the Purgatory Legion's army has begun to retreat. Should we … give up on the Zero Point Missile attack that we just planned?"

In the adjutant's opinion, the enemy's retreat was a foregone conclusion, so there was no need to waste more than a thousand Zero Point Missiles, was there?

After all, even if they were all fired, they wouldn't cause much damage to the enemy!

Just as the adjutant thought, to ensure the effectiveness of the attack, they would need at least eight Zero Point Missiles in a group to bombard the enemy.

And these thousand Zero Point Missiles, according to this pattern, would only be able to fire a hundred or so Zero Point Missiles. Each Zero Point Missile attack range was about 10 million kilometers. Based on the current dispersion of the Purgatory Legion, it was already good enough that each Zero Point Missile attack could cover two to three thousand Purgatory Legions.

And with more than a hundred Zero Point Missiles, they would only be able to kill a few hundred thousand Purgatory Legions. This number might not even be enough to scratch the enemy's itch.

"No, the Zero Point Missile attack is still necessary, but we need to change the attack plan. Give up on the previous group attack and change it to a single Zero Point Missile attack. Plan the entire attack process to be about two hours!"

The adjutant suddenly felt that she couldn't keep up with her commander's thoughts. She was just thinking about not wasting the Zero Point Missiles. Even if the Federation was not as short of resources as before, the Zero Point Missiles could not be used indefinitely.

And the entire attack plan was to be planned to be two hours …

What kind of operation was this?

"Are you stupid? There are billions of them. Even if each race opens a planet-sized dimensional passage, it will take a few hours to evacuate all of them!"

"If we stop all our attacks when they start to retreat and watch them leave, will they realize that we are bluffing? Will they turn around and test us again? "

"So, we have to make good use of our limited resources and act like we want to stop them from retreating!"

"This is the only way they won't have any doubts and will retreat with all their might!"

Lin Kexin looked at the dumbfounded adjutant and scolded him. Then, she briefly explained.

'So that's how it is …' The adjutant suddenly understood.

The smarter a creature was, the more suspicious it was.

'My commander is calculating the enemy's mentality …

'Even if it's between different species!
