Chapter 941: Chapter 577: Attack_1
The so-called free engagent ans that the pilots who control the intelligent warfare can make decisions entirely independently.
However, this does not an that human ergency battles are chaotic. Free engagent is only a privilege of intelligent warfare and pilots because they do not need the full assistance of a central intelligence.
As for others, they receive different detailed instructions and execute them quickly.
Countless detailed instructions accumulated together are the ergency response strategy of the entire military system of the Voyager Galaxy.
Thirty seconds later, a large number of armored arrays began to gather at the exits of various starships.
At the seventy-three exits of the Lightning, hundreds of different types of armors are lined up according to the order of their own readiness.
At the very front is Tiffany Bell and her T100.
The nearly sixty-ter-tall T100 is obviously bigger than other armors, and it is also ranked first, making the T100 inevitably eye-catching.
Dennis Mitchell, who was responsible for coordinating and dispatching, noticed the situation here, but as things stood, he had nothing to say and could only secretly pray in his heart that the little girl would survive.
At this ti, the “fish” in front had already approached the central fleet at a very fast speed.
When the two sides got close, the fish did not use warp maneuvering.
About two years ago, humans invented an interference device that can disrupt warp technology.
Suddenly turning on the interference device can make warping within its coverage extrely unstable.
The advantage of the interference device is that it can quickly take effect and is very hidden, but the disadvantage is that it does not distinguish between friends and foes.
With this gadget in human hands, humans can decide when to turn it on and send advance warnings to friendly combat units before doing so.
After suffering twice, the Compound-Eyed Observers no longer easily start warping during close-range combat, instead focusing on conventional maneuvers.
This feeling seems a bit like two nuclear-ard countries fighting each other. Although they have more powerful weapons, soldiers from both sides would actually resort to lee during so small-scale friction.
Shipborne weaponry on the central fleet battleships had begun firing.
A dense net of firepower interwove in space.
Intense bomb explosions ford images like a star graveyard.
The few intelligent combat units previously patrolling outside had ford battle formations and now faced the incoming fish.
The fish-shaped enemy machine finally revealed a new form.
The previous fish looked like a long, thin teorite, but when it left curvature space and began low-speed propulsion, short spikes like hedgehogs appeared on the surface of its original streamlined body.
Each spike’s length ranged from one ter to 0.8 ters, and the front end continuously emitted strange radiation waves at a specific frequency.
A large number of radiation waves intertwined into a web mbrane.
The web mbrane could allow the fish to move forward at a stable speed of light without ejecting any dium.
Moreover, the size of these fish are not fixed, and they can bend to a significant degree, changing direction at the arc radius during the bend without slowing down.
Visually, the flight trajectory of the fish turned into one winding, twisting stream of light after another.
The fish sward up and down, interweaved, and extended like a giant glowing weaving thread continuously spreading to the front.
Harrison Clark used to dominate the battlefield with his astonishing maneuvering and direction-changing abilities in super-high-speed conventional maneuvers.
However, it is evident that the fish’s conventional maneuvering and direction-changing capabilities have surpassed those of Harrison Clark in the past.
The main shipborne equipnt of the central fleet was equipped for dium-to-short-range, small-caliber weapons. Despite occasional hits, the distance between the two parties continued to be forced closer, as if the ancient aircraft carriers faced enemy small-scale bomber squadrons and were powerless.
If it were the 21st century, when warfare reached this point, the only choice for the aircraft carrier would be to withdraw to its own range of anti-aircraft artillery and missile bases for help from teammates.
In the infinitely expanded space battlefield, it is challenging to execute a retreat once the enemy gains mobility advantages.
Moreover, a large-scale fortress-like weapon in the rear fleet behind the central fleet was already charging.
The central fleet cannot withdraw.
Otherwise, the immobile war fortresses would be more directly exposed to these astonishingly mobile fish.
…
“Depart!”
Five seconds after the countdown ended, the 73 exits of the Lightning suddenly opened.
The T100’s preheated engine imdiately went full throttle. The armor leaped downwards away from the transport ship’s exit, then glided in a very small arc underneath, heading straight for the incoming swarm of fish.
Tiffany Bell inside was shaken by the sudden acceleration, feeling a little dizzy. Fortunately, her physical fitness was still adequate, and the newly installed advanced life support system in the T100 took effect in ti.
A thin layer of pulse curvature bubble film was slightly covered outside her loading chamber to alleviate the pressure she was experiencing.
Tiffany Bell resisted the discomfort and stared straight at the projection in front of her.
In her field of vision, the left projection contained nurous T100 armor paraters and the pre-set program operation situation she had just completed.
On the right was a simulated projection, calculated based on the information provided by the global battlefield intelligence.
The projection covered a 1-billion-kiloter diater sphere.
Within the spherical space, all friendly combat units and all detectable enemy combat units, as well as complex space terrain, were included.
The Voyager Galaxy did not have a Kuiper Asteroid Belt like the Solar System, instead, it had large areas of colorful radiation clouds orbiting the star in an elliptical orbit. These radiation clouds are made up of a large number of high-energy plasmas, but strangely, they do not release energy normally.
For the vast majority of the ti, the massive amount of radioactive energy is trapped within the thick clouds by the special closed structure of the plasma clouds, only to be suddenly released to the outside in a very short ti when stimulated by external forces and when the energy reserves exceed the limit of the closed structure. They form a ring of radiation energy around the entire galaxy.
The total energy release is about one seven-millionth of the total light energy released by the Voyager Star during a period.
Although it is only one seven-millionth, the energy release range is highly concentrated and the ti is extrely short. The energy level of the radiation cloud is terrifying, and even the latest high-level warships and combat units of the human race have to avoid its edge.
If they are unlucky and happen to crash into the core discharge area of the high-energy reaction, even the curvature bubble that can block space impact will break, or at least cause so equipnt failure which can be fatal.
The existence of the radiation cloud layer makes the battlefield environnt relatively more complex.
The human force’s three-layer fleet is also divided into two parts by the radiation cloud layer.
The front and middle line fleets are outside the cloud, while the rear line fleets are inside the cloud.
Through a large number of studies, humans have a high degree of mastery of the operational rules of the radiation clouds, and can slightly control the reaction rhythm of the radiation clouds through artificial ans.
This is the geographical advantage of humanity.
However, due to the strange characteristics of the “fish,” the geographical advantage of humanity has been severely reduced.
Fortunately, the human forces are well-trained, and the combat command system of the main brain, the star, stores a large number of effective plans, conceiving countless new types of troops that the Compound-Eyed Observer may create.
One of them, nad X85 Shuttling Flying Locust, has a similarity of over 90% with the “fish.”
So the Guardian Army is not completely unprepared, including the choice of weapon systems, with a mature plan in place, and as ti goes on, the efficiency of the troops’ execution is increasing.
At this ti, the human fleet is arranged in a seemingly chaotic but actually supportive formation, with each warship and fleet providing fire support to each other.
The vanguard fleet has now split into two, with one part facing the enemy and engaging with even larger numbers of “fish” swarms, while the other part of the elite is returning to their ships from the rear and chasing down the billion or so “fish” swarms approaching the middle-line fleet.
Obviously, both sides are now in a mutually intertwined and biting dogfight, and it’s a matter of who can hold out the longest.
After reading the battlefield situation, Tiffany Bell closed her eyes and thought for nearly five seconds, then quickly changed the T100’s battle strategy.
The new strategy takes effect in ti, and the T100 first uses conventional force field acceleration to reach 0.8 tis the speed of light as quickly as possible.
At the sa ti, the armor starts to move around the flanks.
Tiffany does not choose to charge head-on into the enemy formation.
On the other side, synchronized with the new strategy, Harrison Clark nods slightly, and before figuring out the opponent’s bottom line, it’s right to take a little detour and avoid capsizing in the gutter at the outset.
What’s more, among all the intelligent warfare devices of the middle-line fleet, Tiffany’s response speed and propulsion speed are the fastest.
Now she has only a few dozen comrades at her side, making it difficult to receive effective support.
So, a conservative strategy…
Harrison Clark: “Pfft!”
The next mont, the T100 suddenly moves into a V-shape in space, then spirals forward in a chaotic pattern.
At the sa ti, Tiffany’s communication transmission has been sent to the Voyager Command Center.
“Reporting to the Command Center. I am T100-1987-HZ-99 intern pilot Tiffany Bell, and I will engage the enemy in 3.7 seconds. According to the prompt of the simulation plan, my combat strategy is to use the Super Magnetic Thunderbolt to create a strong magnetic battlefield, use the Inverse Unified Aggregation Cutting Blade for close-range probing attacks, and assist with continuous bombardnt from the Virtual Energy Ray Gun. I request assistance from the all-channel battlefield information collector!”
Dennis Mitchell, who is working on his armor’s pre-programming, also receives this ssage and is baffled.
Tiffany’s intention is clear.
She wants to harness the T100’s top-notch combat potential and beco an elite spearhead, like the historical philosopher Harrison Clark of the void, leading the charge and engaging in high-intensity close-quarters combat to find the weaknesses in the enemy’s new weapons. Worst case scenario, she wants to collect more information that scientists do not currently have acquired, to provide better convenience for others’ battles in the future.
If the T100 can truly achieve the evaluation once given by the main brain, the Star, even if it can only achieve 70%, Tiffany’s idea is fine.
The problem is that she can’t even control the armor to complete so basic complex tasks.
She’s clearly on a suicide mission!
Ahead, the T100 further accelerates and activates the skip drive just as it approaches the “fish” swarm, appearing in front of a ray of light in an instant.
It’s just a simple decision.
But she has pushed her pre-judgnt ability, which she learned from Harrison’s training, to the extre.
The distance is too close, and even the “fish,” which has the ability to change direction at the speed of light, can’t avoid it in ti.
In her positioning, she has accurately predicted the smallest turning radius exposed in the previous flight trajectory of the fish swarm.
The “fish” directly in front of her has no intention to evade but suddenly stops in mid-air. Then, it suddenly changes its shape, inflating like a breath and turning into an urchin-like object with a main body diater of about 30 ters and spines about 3 ters long.
Then, the urchin began to spin rapidly, and countless spiral rays of light sprayed out like the arms of a galaxy.
The rays of light gradually bend and converge forward, forming an inverted teor, with the long tail of the teor stabbing at the T100 like a sharp blade.
This whole process sounds complicated, but it actually happens within 0.1 seconds.
The front end of the teor’s tail shifts and swallows one spaceti rift after another, and within it, a large number of electrical currents are excited. The energy density is so high that it surpasses all the weapons of the Compound-Eyed Observers humans have encountered so far.
This blow must be dodged!
Tiffany, Dennis Mitchell, and several pilots who have been quietly watching T100 are all so tense that they dare not take a breath.
Tiffany has already prepared her possible on-the-spot plan based on her experience when facing similar weapons.
The only thing she can do now is trust the T100.
At this point, things turn to Harrison Clark.
