Chapter 970: Well, play slower

"What wave is this?"

In the virtual war room, Altera looked at the news that had just been sent, and then asked.

"It's the 98th wave!"

"Good guy, a wave of 17 black cavity channels, so a thousand or hundreds of dark energy crystals were consumed, and it was in less than five hours?"

After thinking about it in his mind, Altela also felt his scalp numb.

After all, even when the Shenyao civilization once controlled the dark energy source, after more than 100,000 years, the reserve amount of crystals was only more than 3,000 pieces.

Look at the expense of the Sunriver Empire.

It seems that Amleth guy is also betting, but he picked the wrong target to bet against. Lin Fan told them that even if the Sun River Empire opens 10,000 dark channels, the Federation still has enough dark channels. Can crystallize reserves and destroy them all!

Involuntarily, Altera began to sympathize with Amleth. Who could be a bad opponent? He had to fight against the federation, which had an extremely unreasonable amount of dark energy crystal reserves.

"I think the front line can slow down the attack depending on the situation!"

"The attack has slowed down. Shouldn't we eat up the remaining fleet of the Sun River Empire as quickly as possible?"

Listening to Lin Fan's sudden proposal, Altera and Lotavis were a little confused, not knowing what Lin Fan was going to do.

"Don't you think this war of attrition for dark energy crystal reserves should be allowed to last longer?"

"After all, there are not many opportunities like this!"

hiss.

When Lin Fan said this, the two of them immediately reacted.

This is to continue to trick that guy Amleth until most of his dark energy crystal reserves are gone.

In five hours, 1,666 dark energy crystals from the Sun River Empire were destroyed. However, after all, the Sun River Empire had robbed nearly all the reserves of the three super civilizations. Although it was not as exaggerated as the federation's reserves, there should still be tens of thousands. .

In this way, if you want to trick it into investing more dark energy crystals into this war of attrition, then the fleet on the front line of the Sun River Empire cannot suffer excessive losses. Amlais will probably not continue to compete. Let him see that there is still hope on the front line.

To achieve this, as Lin Fan said, the fleet must slow down its attack and give the fleet on the Sun River Empire side some more time to survive.

"Okay, I'll leave and notify the fleet on the front line!"

Now that he understood Lin Fan's intention, Altra no longer hesitated and nodded directly.

Immediately went to make arrangements.

On the battlefield, the fleet of the Sun River Empire had dropped sharply from the initial strength of more than 20 corps to about 12 corps.

In more than a day, half of the fleet has been lost, and the remaining fleet has been beaten to pieces and scattered in star systems to fight on their own.

Originally, according to this situation, it would be the limit to last another day and a half at most.

But suddenly the fleet on the Alliance side slowed down its attack. Different from the previous crazy attack, it became a steady advancement mode.

This made everyone a little surprised

However, two possibilities have been analyzed by the think tank and presented to Amlais.

The first is that the alliance has already secured victory, so it no longer needs crazy attacks with high casualties and time-grabbing attacks, so it turns to a more secure offensive plan with controllable casualties.

Second, the Alliance is confident of achieving final victory in this war of attrition, and wants to prolong the war to allow the Empire to invest more dark energy crystal reserves.

The third is to deliberately create an illusion to make the empire think that the alliance has sufficient reserves to win this war of attrition, thus forcing the empire to withdraw voluntarily.

It has to be said that not all super civilizations are fools, and the two results submitted by the chief think tank Korlac can be said to be quite accurate.

In itself, when Lin Fan proposed this plan, he considered two aspects.

Of course, pulling the Sun River Empire to continue competing with dark energy crystals is definitely the biggest consideration, but by the way, such an operation can indeed reduce casualties on the alliance's side.

After all, the previous strategy was to completely annihilate all the fleets of the Sun River Empire in the shortest possible time, and this strategy would definitely cost more casualties.

But now, without having to fight for time, you can naturally choose more combat methods that are less costly.

Looking at Korlak's report, Amleth felt a little uncertain.

Although these are three possibilities, in fact, the first two can also be regarded as the same possibility.

You must know that the first possibility mentioned in the report has a premise, that is, the Alliance can completely defeat the Sun River Empire in the attrition war of dark energy crystals.

Otherwise, this first possibility would be out of the question.

So, considering that the empire currently has a reserve of almost 11,000 dark energy crystals, can it exhaust the alliance first

Or is it really just like the third possibility, everything is just a game, and the alliance is about to be unable to hold on, so it deliberately acted like this so that the empire can take the initiative to withdraw from this attrition competition

Amleth was a little hesitant at this moment.

"Korraq, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, I think the third option is more likely, and I think the Federation's dark energy crystal reserves are likely to come from the Alphat civilization!"

"Alphat civilization?"

Amleth was a little surprised. After all, all the previous speculations were that the Federation had obtained the remains of a civilization hundreds of thousands or even millions of years ago.

"Yes, Your Majesty, when we took over the Alphat civilization, we did not find their dark energy crystal reserves. In addition, humans are a branch of the Alphat civilization."

"Therefore, if our previous inference is correct and the Alphat civilization has indeed left the Canglong Universe, then if they want to leave the dark energy crystals to anyone before they leave, the most likely person is naturally the human beings who are their branch!"

"Although the Alphates have a very small demand for dark energy crystals after evolving into energy life forms, no matter how you calculate it, this reserve should not exceed 500,000!"

"Although this amount is indeed terrifying, the consumption on the Federation's side is also very large. In the previous Nilkenia Super Galaxy Cluster alone, they consumed tens of thousands of dark energy crystals, and then sent them to the entire universe every day. The consumption of transporting the Mirta device is also not small."

"Finally, humans can improve the level of black cavity data analysis to a level no less than that of our empire in a short period of time. The amount of dark energy crystals consumed is also extremely terrifying, at least not less than 300,000 this number."

"Coupled with the consumption in other aspects, our think tank made a bold calculation. The number of dark energy crystal reserves currently held by humans should be less than 50,000!"

"So, I think the third option is more likely, that is"

"The alliance behaves like this deliberately so that we can voluntarily give up this war of attrition."
