Gao Yi's fleet has left Mandeville Point, and landing craft have begun to board the surrounding void defense platforms and forcibly take over their control.

The sudden arrival of this huge fleet also caused panic in the large number of armed merchant ships docked around Malfi.

They also realized that the war was about to come, and these merchant ships no longer cared about the cargo, so they began to leave the vicinity of Malfi with their personnel. Although the armed merchant ships had certain combat effectiveness, if the two sides got angry, none of them could withstand it.

The brave ones tried to send a request to leave to Gao Yi's fleet.

And Gao Yi also agreed.

After seeing the first merchant ship pass Gao Yi's fleet without being attacked, all other merchant ships also headed towards Mandeville Point. In a short period of time, all these merchant ships jumped into the subspace and escaped from here.

In the central area of the galaxy where Malfi was located, only the fleet of the Rogue Trader Alliance and Malfi's orbital defense fleet were left.

"Lord! All the merchant ships have left, and Malfi's warships have also been deployed. It seems that they are ready for battle! However, our warships are superior to theirs in both quantity and quality. The enemy does not have the power to threaten the Star Pioneer. However, according to system calculations, if we directly engage in a fleet battle, our losses will be around 10%.

We still don't know what level of defense firepower the planet can reach. According to the best guess, if we break through the enemy fleet and reach the surface, our losses may be close to 30-40 percent."

Listening to the priest's report, Gao Yi knew that war could not be calculated by the system, but these reference data could also estimate the possible 40% loss, which was not acceptable to Gao Yi.

However, Gao Yi temporarily ignored the possible losses that ground firepower might bring to him. The priest's calculations did not take into account the fact that the Zerg had begun to reproduce. The Banshees could also destroy a lot of ground defense firepower. If necessary, the two Gorgons in the fleet could even make a tactical jump directly into the atmosphere for a carpet cleanup.

At worst, we could just warp over Agasos's Gorgon fleet and use numbers to overwhelm the enemy, but this could only be used at the last moment.

Gao Yi could accept a 10% loss in the fleet battle. When the real battle came, the combat power of the Star Pioneer, the improved Void Shield technology and the Pure Mark of the Machine Soul Great Joy could reduce the loss again.

The existence of SCV is unmatched by the opponent's fleet.

However, before the battle, Gao Yi still tried to reduce the opponent's resistance.

"Send a communication to the planet as the Church, the Inquisition, and my identity as a living saint, telling them of the heresy their Governor has committed! Have Ian get the Inquisition on Malfi to cooperate with us and prove what we say!

Let those loyal to the Empire give up resistance and assist the Dynasty's fleet in purifying the heretical forces belonging to Glades. As long as they do not completely turn to the enemies of the Empire, they still have the right to live in Malfi. "

Gao Yi didn't believe that everyone on the planet was willing to obey Glades. He did not try to persuade Glades to surrender, because the other party knew that he would not be able to escape the fate of death if he surrendered.

As the communications were sent and Ian and Leon worked together on the surface of the planet, some nobles indeed chose to break away from Glades' control.

But there are more nobles standing by Glades. After all, in terms of blood, many nobles are of the same clan as Glades, or even Glades's men.

If we put aside the fact that she tried to use the power of chaos, she was definitely an excellent governor. When paying tithes, she reduced the exploitation of ordinary people and instead squeezed the interests of the nobles in order to exceed the tithe.

Every time the tithe is paid, the other nobles of Malfi will suffer a heavy loss, but the common people do not need to fight for the tithe.

Glades's behavior also earned her a high prestige among the common people of Malfi. They did not believe what Gao Yi said. How could such a good governor be a heretic?

These people from the Monget Dynasty must be lying!

Under Glades' secret instigation, many people even expressed their determination to fight the invaders to the end.

Gao Yi saw that his plan did not have much effect, and cursed in his heart.

What kind of pervert did Malfi's Inquisition create? He was clearly a heretic who used psychic powers, but how come he appeared to be so loyal on the surface?

"Attack, and destroy the opponent's orbital defense firepower and fleet first. Perhaps when they see that they cannot fight against the alliance, more people will voluntarily give up resistance!"

The order was given, and the Dynasty's thirty warships opened their void shields at full strength and approached Malfi in battle formation.

A large number of defense platforms on Malfi's orbit also turned their guns and began aiming at Gao Yi's fleet.

But a beam of light came directly from outside the range of the battleships and defense platforms and hit one of Malfi's frigates.

The void shield was instantly overloaded, and the high-energy plasma quickly melted the battleship's armor. The light beam penetrated the battleship and paralyzed it instantly.

"How is this possible! How can the opponent's shooting range be so far!"

Glades watched in surprise as he saw that his side had lost a warship just as the battle began, and the power of the enemy's naval guns was too exaggerated.

Glades had no idea what type of battleship the Star Pioneer was. Even its style was very different from the Empire's existing battleships.

However, the opponent's ultra-long-range strike capability has shattered Glades' idea of using the planet's defense firepower to fight the enemy.

If the warship remained near the orbit, Gao Yi could even destroy all the enemy's warships and defense platforms without any loss, which forced Glades to order the warship to actively move towards the enemy.

Glades knew that she couldn't win against the opponent's powerful warships and fleet size, but at this moment she could only try to consume as much strength as possible from the opponent. If she lost the fleet battle, she would switch to fighting the opponent on the ground!

Malfi's people who support him will fight to the end! And the evil cults in the bottom nest that she deliberately let develop are also a force she can use. When the time comes, she will let the other side know that her rule is unshakable.

The dominance displayed by the Star Pioneer still dealt a serious blow to the morale of Glades' fleet.

Seeing Glades wavering a little, Franky told him that the dark gods would take action, but it would take some time.

Gao Yi's development ultimately failed to escape the attention of the gods of the warp, especially those night guards who could kill demons...

Although these people were few in number, the Chaos Gods reached some kind of agreement when it came to the fundamentals. They also wanted to figure out what was going on with the Monget Dynasty.

This is the most important reason why believers of the gods appear on Malfi at the same time, and Glades is just their puppet to interfere with the real universe.

The outcome of the battle in the void was decided, and Glades began to prepare to leave her palace and wait until Gao Yi completely destroyed her fleet.

Facing the firepower from the ground, one round of concentrated fire was enough to destroy a large number of buildings in the upper nest.

She can't stay here any longer.

She didn't believe that Gao Yi dared to completely destroy Malfi. As the capital of a sub-star region, even if you were the Grand Inquisitor and dared to issue an extermination order, the end result would be investigation and execution by the Empire
