- And yet, the last. If there are no enemies in those coordinates where you are aimed, and you have already appeared on other bark, do not rush to transfer the sight. The difference in the appearance of enemy fleets can reach 10 seconds. So wait. All fleets translate identification beacons only at the reception! Have a good fight!
Before the rest, a powerful enemy fleet of two civilizations jumped into orbit of Jupiter near Steten. There was already a fierce battle, and near Earth there was utter silence.
- Hera, I Book. We can not cope, need help.
- Book, try to hold out at least five minutes. Maneuver, maneuver and maneuver again. Even if you are calculated while aiming, you are already reeling from there. There will be help, but later.

As Leah assumed, the fleet jumped out in three-dimensional with a spread of up to 10 seconds. Almost at the same time, the emperor's fleet jumped up to a thousand ships near the Earth (when he only has time to rivet them!) And with him a very strong fleet of the same level of development as the Invirs. About two half thousand ships. But the first salvo of Invira destroyed more than a thousand of these ships. Crews died on ships. Of these, there was not a single shuttle or rescue capsule. The purrs, the Arihons and the Earth ships were aimed at the fleet of Men that appeared. After the first volley on the imperial ships, no more than a hundred ships remained, but on the other hand a huge number of ejected rescue capsules. Alas, the barrage was so dense that the opponents did not have a chance to survive. Varkan did not differ in high discipline and almost half of their ships took the sights from the coordinates indicated by Leah. As a result, some of them shot out at the same targets as the Invires, and some with a slight delay almost finished off the emperor’s fleet with the first volley.

“Varcan, I'm Hera!” Urgently to the help of Armor. Using main engines!
- Hera, I'm Vorkan! I obey! - more than two thousand plasma tails ripped up the sky above the Earth and in less than a minute the ships were in the rear of the enemy fleet, all of whose guns were aimed in a completely different direction in search of the ships of Steten. Commander Stetenov entered tactically very competently. His ships after the first volleys, constantly maneuvered and, moreover, so that they returned mostly to where the enemy had fired before, but did not hit anyone. Before the enemy managed to turn to the Varkan, they, having made a couple of volleys, faded from the coordinates from which they had fired. At this time, Steteny, realizing that the enemy was distracted by the arrivals Varkanov, opened firing fire on the enemy, having thinned out the ranks of the enemy. But we must pay tribute to the commanders of the enemy fleets. They are divided. Some turned their guns in the direction of Varkanov, and the other fleet in the direction of Stetenov.

- Bes, I'm Hera! We will reach the enemy ourselves near the Earth. Fly to the help of armor!
- There is! - and again the sky above the Earth was drawn by plasma lines from the main engines used not according to the charter. But when the fleet of Invirov hit the enemy ships from the flank, the enemies began to panic. Taking advantage of the panic of the enemy, three of the most powerful fleets destroyed almost all the enemy ships and then methodically finished off trying to escape in canoes or rescue capsules.
“Bes, Vorkan and Bron, I'm Hera!” If possible, capture at least a couple of enemy ships.
- I Bes, let's do it!
- Murlyka and Zeus, the same order to you: take the ship captive!
“Hera, the ships of the Men are all destroyed, and the Quoreans, as far as I know, do not surrender to captivity.
- The eyes are afraid, and the hands do.

The emperor jumped away from his fleet so that it was easy to lead the battle. Just where I expected. I did not even have time to react to the appearance of an imperial ship in three-dimensional, and Phaeton had already shot him. But in the emperor, too, the reaction is quick. I managed to slip off the ship before the explosion and ran off of urine to the saving atmosphere. But he initially made a mistake. He had to either jump out with his fleet or even below the stationary orbit (so that it was closer to the Earth). And so Girman and I rushed after him. He did not even have time to issue any command to his fleet.
And here, masterfully shirking our shots, the emperor was not up to commands. Then at least do not fall under the shot. As I expected, the emperor was not on his plate, but on a strange, very brisk shuttle. But still we gradually became closer to him. Already entered the upper atmosphere. A little more and he can escape. Or maybe not escape, but at least temporarily sneak away from us.
- Gere, we shoot at him not with volleys, but with a queue. You're on the left, I'm on the right, - just managed to say how one of us got into the engines of the imperial shuttle. He randomly zavyvirkal. Girman stopped shooting. If I had ceased, the emperor would have escaped on the remaining engine. But I let everything out of my guns on him. The shuttle broke out, and after a moment exploded (but without the emperor). This reptile managed to eject.

- Gere! Keep an eye on him! Catapult to him. Get ready to teleport.
So it happened. As soon as the emperor saw us, he immediately teleported towards the Earth. But he did not succeed in breaking away from us. Earthlings are lucky that we were at the top of a mountain range where no one was. Otherwise, he would just be covered up as a hostage.
- Oh, you're a traitor! - the emperor turned to Girman.
- Close telepathy even from me! Otherwise, he will now subjugate you, - and he himself began a mental battle with the emperor. Strong emperor, oh strong. All my magical tricks were instantly stopped and such a flow of magical energy rushed in response that I could barely withstand. But the emperor had no strength left to act mentally on Girman. But physically from Girman he defended himself with dignity. As soon as I managed to immobilize the emperor for a moment, Girman immediately took advantage of this moment and, doing a back flip, thrust the Vampire fang, made by Invirs, into the emperor. The emperor curled from the hellish pain that had pierced him.

- It's impossible. The vampire's fang does not pierce my armor, but I have immunity from the vampire's poison, - Girman had already swung for a new blow, but seeing that his strike had reached the goal, he only filtered through his teeth:
- Die, carrion! - a minute later the body of the emperor was already reminded of jelly. Yad Shensherov acted flawlessly.
- Gere, we will have to teleport to the cosmodrome and fly to Phaeton with an earth shuttle. After all, we lost ours.
- It's a pity.

- Commander, why do not you want to fly on your shuttle?
- Phaeton, what a stupid question? Because I lost him.
- He is five meters above you.
- Not understood?! Where does he come from? And where is the second?
“I can't place both shuttles at one point.” One hundred meters from you at eight o'clock.
- But from where ?!
- After the crew ejection, if the shuttle is in good condition, it automatically transfers to control from the ship.
- Phaeton, you are a true friend! Thank! Gere, jump in their shuttles and shake on Phaeton.

- Hera, I'm Phaeton! The emperor is dead.
- HOORAY!!! - the voices of fleet commanders were heard separately.
“Fighters of the Quarter, I am the commander of the combined fleet, General Leah!” The one who brought you here is dead (she launched a hologram from the cocoon of Girman. How he plunged the Vampire fang through the armor).
- It's impossible.The vampire's fang does not pierce my armor, but I have immunity from the vampire's poison, - Girman had already swung for a new blow, but seeing that his strike had reached the goal, he only filtered through his teeth:
- Die, carrion!

- As you can see, the Emperor of Men is killed by a representative of his own civilization. I ask you to surrender. I know that the requirements of the military regulations do not allow you to surrender. But it depends on your decision whether your civilization will continue to develop. Or she sinks into oblivion after retaliatory retaliation. If you give up, retaliation retaliation will not. I ask you not to think about yourself, but about your loved ones, and indeed the fate of your civilization depends on you.
- General, ...
