Chapter 327: Chapter 326: Boarding Warfare
Professor Yamamoto gritted his teeth and said, “If the remaining worlds get infected… then, keep destroying the infected virtual worlds, even destroy all virtual worlds! We must completely eradicate these viruses!”
The entire machine room fell into silence as humans, like gamblers in retreat, started to bet their last enormous chips, a frenzy born of desperation.
Even when people truly understood that the likelihood of this plan’s success was not very high, it was rely a possibility.
Seeing Zhang Yuan not taking a stance, Yamamoto shouted excitedly, “Captain, if humans are annihilated, what’s the use of leaving Pangu Brain here?! Just to hand it over to them for nothing? I don’t want to waste decades of hard work and destroy our virtual worlds either!”
The rest of the scientists also had looks of bitter anguish, but each one of them understood this truth.
“If we don’t eliminate the Digital Virus, we can’t possibly win!”
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, and in that instant, beca unexpectedly calm, his mind running at high speed.
No, Yamamoto’s thod might sound good, but the loss of the virtual worlds to humanity would be too great… Even if we ultimately won, the potential for human developnt would be severely diminished.
A better way… A better way!
In that mont, Zhang Yuan suddenly said, “I have an idea, can we construct a trap, a virtual world to lure all the Digital Viruses into?”
“One that can collapse on its own!”
“…Yes, this virtual world could only maintain its physical rules for a few seconds, and they are completely conflicting, but it could cleverly last that long because of its imnse computing power, attracting a large number of Digital Viruses. But once the viruses enter, because of the chaos in the physical rules, these lifeforms won’t be able to reproduce on a large scale, reducing the possibility of contaminating other worlds. Do you all think it’s possible?”
All the scientists were stunned.
Zhang Yuan beca more and more excited as he spoke, “Ladies and gentlen, is it possible to construct such a virtual world?”
“As long as we can restore communication, we can definitely defeat the enemy! Definitely!”
Especially Professor Yamamoto, his old face turning red and white in turns, he was so surprised he couldn’t speak for a long ti.
A world with completely chaotic physical rules…
It seems… there might be a possibility!
…
As ti passed hour by hour, while Zhang Yuan and the others were frantically busy, the Badit people’s spaceship, propelled by gravity, gradually caught up to The Kunlun Mountain.
Looking at the giant spaceship on the screen, seemingly larger than expected, it was truly an emperor-class fleet among civilizations.
Prince Bart waved his tentacles excitedly and roared, “Prepare the High Energy Laser, tear open a hole, but not too large, this is my spaceship, after all!”
“Charge in, charge into the command center, there will be rewards!”
“Roar!” All the soldiers, facing the wealth within their grasp, shouted frenetically, each one donning their helts, ready to remotely control the robots.
What a joke, we’re all using robots for digitalized warfare now, who uses flesh and blood to fight head-on anymore?
That’s the advantage of information technology!
When the distance between the two spaceships was only ten thousand kiloters, human soldiers had started to attack with Laser Weapons and electromagnetic guns, but without the help of electronic devices, the hits were few and far between!
And the opponent’s drones had already swooped in, in the blink of an eye, most of the few retaliatory positions that humanity could muster were destroyed. However, in this wave of attacks, The Kunlun Mountain suffered surprisingly little damage, which in turn confird that the enemy indeed wanted an intact spaceship.
“Damn Aliens… treating us like sitting ducks.”
Colonel Guo licked his dry lips, his finger on the button of a nuclear bomb, ready to make a vicious move as the enemy got closer.
“Colonel, I suggest we don’t launch the nuclear bomb,” the stoic Chief of Staff Ye Junchang, adjusting his glasses, stated.
“Why not?” Old Guo blurted out involuntarily.
This young man was only forty years old, but his steady mind, combined with his high professional quality, allowed him to stand out quickly.
Ye Junchang frowned and explained, “Interstellar missiles usually receive observation paraters from 3 ships, set up systems of equations to determine their own position and the three-dinsional coordinates of the attack target, but currently all escort ships’ communications are down. The interstellar missile has lost its guidance capability, and even with distances of just a few thousand or a few hundred kiloters, the probability of a hit is still too low.”
“Moreover, once the nuclear bomb is launched without sufficient acceleration distance, its speed will not be high. It is likely to be intercepted directly by the enemy’s laser weapons and could possibly explode near the Kunlun Mountain…”
Colonel Guo paused for a mont, aware of this reasoning in his heart yet as a traditional man born in the 22nd century, he instinctively trusted the power of nuclear bombs.
Ye Junchang continued, “I think there is still a possibility of a reversal victory in a boarding fight. In interstellar warfare, with the current state, the chance of winning is almost zero. The enemy’s probable attack target should be here…”
The Captain’s Room had already issued a death order: before resolving the digital virus, these military personnel must delay the enemy’s pace.
Ten thousand kiloters, eight thousand kiloters, five thousand kiloters, three thousand kiloters, five hundred kiloters!
The opportunity was missed…
Old Guo sighed and did not press the button.
At that mont, a laser suddenly struck The Kunlun Mountain, carving out a circular opening eighty ters in diater!
Due to the internal atmospheric pressure, a large volu of gas burst from the opening, pushing out like the carbonation from a soda bottle—exposing the complete inner space of The Kunlun Mountain.
“Well done.”
Prince Bart was exceptionally pleased with this laser cutting; if the damage was too extensive, repairing it would be difficult, greatly reducing the value of the spoils of war.
This kind of breach was just right!
At that instant, a small nuclear bomb was thrown into the inner space of The Kunlun Mountain, causing a massive tremor.
A shrill alarm resounded through the air, but as the atmosphere quickly escaped, the alarm faded away, leaving only a void echoing in the vacuum.
With a “crack,” after clearing the entrance of debris with a nuclear bomb and a subsequent powerful vibration, part of the alien spaceship had wedged through the circular breach, officially boarding The Kunlun Mountain with chanical arms.
Following the explosion of this nuclear bomb, almost all human soldiers fully understood… the enemy had truly arrived!
In the military corridor, the first wave of intelligent robots detected the enemy’s arrival and promptly initiated an attack.
“Unknown civilization, this is deterrence… We don’t mind blowing this spaceship to bits. Send them a signal to surrender quickly, I can spare so of their population and let them leave safely!”
“Your Highness… that doesn’t seem possible.”
Looking at the troubled expression of his subordinate, Prince Bart slapped his head, suddenly realizing their communication capabilities had been wiped out. Notifying them would indeed be a hassle. He inwardly criticized himself, thinking it was rather stingy to still be sparing his war robots in this utterly controlling situation.
And the opposition would not surrender without a fight. A future emperor cannot quibble over such trifles, lest he beco a laughingstock.
“Then fight. Release our robots!” he commanded decisively.
“Indiscriminate attack!”
“And, light up so words on our robots’ screens: ‘Surrender, and you will not be killed!'”
“Damn it! Be careful, don’t fucking blow up my spaceship!” Prince Bart, seeing another subordinate intent on using nuclear bombs, quickly intervened to stop the damn fool.
The Kunlun Mountain was his future asset; if he really blew it to smithereens, it would have no value!
