The five Great White Sharks were almost abreast of each other and at similar depths. They formed an arc and began to pour intensive firepower into the yellow seawater according to the radar display.
Inferior beam weapons pose a problem of energy consumption, so the commanders of each ship also tacitly agree with each other. According to the Hornet's usual practice, facing such a small-scale force, each joint strike consumes 15% of the artillery fire of each Great White Shark. The energy is about the same. If the opponent has special armor, it will be a waste to fight again.
When the artillery fire dissipated, a strange scene appeared on the thermal sensor and conventional radar at the same time. There should have been a huge blue shark and many small target points in the front area, but after this round of firepower, there actually appeared Two large objects.
Before the commanders on the Great White Sharks could figure out what was going on, one of the objects began to move at high speed and rushed towards the five Great White Sharks.
The commanders of the Hornet also reacted very quickly. They immediately changed their formation and increased the depth of the formation. The three ships in the middle of the five ships floated slightly. The one ship on the port side turned right and the one ship on the starboard side turned left. They formed an angle and opened up. A pocket, all the Great White Shark's guns were aimed at the moving target, just waiting for it to come to a suitable distance, and when it was within sight and unavoidable, it was captured in one fell swoop with a salvo of inferior guns and torpedoes. .
From the yellow colored ocean current, the high-speed moving object first emerged. It turned out to be a huge Rubik's cube with a side length of about twenty meters, as if it was formed by putting together those colored building blocks.
The Rubik's Cube made of twenty-seven building blocks rotates irregularly, no matter how you look at it. It is difficult to explain how such an object that changes itself all the time can move so fast on the seabed. Of course, the soldiers of the Hornet Force are not here to study how the Marshal's invention works, they are here to capture the toy factory. No matter what your principles are, they are all here. The only way to destroy this path is to open fire.
Dozens of inferior cannons and torpedoes covered it in all directions with different ballistic trajectories. This is a fixed enemy-annihilation routine of the Hornet. From the dispersion of the formation just now to the crossfire at this moment, it has been rehearsed countless times and also in battle. Used countless times.
But this time, the crossfire that should have been harmless was almost all friendly fire attacking each other. But when those light beams hit the surface of the Rubik's Cube, they were reflected in different directions by the different colored building blocks. Some of the projectiles were at extremely weird angles, and some were directly reflected back at 180 degrees. The explosion caused by the torpedo hitting the Rubik's Cube was not painful at all.
One salvo lasted only about ten seconds. The commanders of each ship responded promptly and stopped this suicidal cooperation as soon as they discovered that the situation was different. However, one ship's power system was still damaged, and the hull was seriously damaged and lost its combat capability. The other four ships also suffered varying degrees of damage.
As the latest and most advanced model of the Great White Shark, the CS7 uses special metal materials on a large area of the hull. We have long considered various types of weapons that may be encountered in the cooperation, but even so, they cannot withstand the close-range continuous fire of inferior beam weapons. The personnel in the five Great White Sharks were killed after this failed concentrated fire. Nearly a third was lost.
The other three ships coming from behind saw this situation and did not dare to approach rashly for a while. ***There is a tacit understanding among the commanders of each ship. At such moments, they all await Galvezan's decision in the hive.
"Nine and ten. Are you in position? How long should you let others wait for you?" Galvezan said.
"Reporting to the commander, we have arrived at the designated position and the torpedoes are ready. Please give the order." The two ships each replied through their own communication channels.
"Test fire two immediately, and then wait for my order." Galvezan said on the public channel: "Ships one to five, the three-dimensional graphics imaging module can still be used, report the loss in the system, move to the flank, and continue The systems are all damaged, so you can retreat. Ship No. 2, you can abandon ship, and the surrounding Great White Shark and the three DT09 ships that just retreated will go to rescue the rescue capsule."
He spoke very quickly, and every second counted. He only paused for a second before continuing to issue the next set of orders. However, the commanders of the ships of the Hornet Force only needed this second to digest the previous orders.
"Ship No. 678, come to this coordinate..." Galvezan said as he pulled a set of data from the operation screen of the command console at hand: "The three ships are in the shape of a cross. At this position and angle, for The main gun that fires the bow of the Rubik's Cube salvo uses maximum output. After firing, the energy consumption reaches less than 50% and then stops."
When he was issuing the second set of instructions, the torpedoes from the No. 9 and No. 10 ships were already heading towards the toy factory. Their trajectory was close to the rocks on the bottom of the sea, and they hit the outer wall of the dome.
But now in the dome, Wei Sheng and Yan Kong were like two elementary school students who had entered a university laboratory, not daring to touch anything. They just sat in front of the computer screen and watched the warlock's performance.
"The reaction of the mid-range guided weapon is detected and it is approaching. An impact will occur five seconds later. The estimated charge is 200 kilograms. The impact after the explosion is of bearable strength and the defensive force field has not been opened." This series does not carry any sense* *The colorful voice is broadcast by the toy factory's system. This is the first time Wei Sheng and Yan Kong have heard this voice since they came here. Generally speaking, these broadcasts use female voices, but for some reason, the voices in this factory sound more and more like the marshal's own children's voices... I heard the slightly childish voice speaking these very professional terms in a cold tone. , it’s really indescribably weird.
"Hey, is it okay? It sounds like we were attacked by something?" Wei Sheng asked.
Although the warlock usually has a virtuous character that everyone can bully, when he sits in front of the computer screen, he will instantly become bright-eyed, fluent, with the overall situation in mind, and invincible. In the eyes of the men, he was as reliable a companion as a needle, but in the eyes of the women, this dead man suddenly became very handsome.
"It's just a torpedo. No need. Didn't the system already indicate that there is no need to open the defensive field?" The warlock was busy with his hands, looking like he was multitasking: "But it seems that the other party has other plans. It doesn’t matter. I’ll deal with it, there are plenty of ways we can come up with here.”
While they were talking, a torpedo hit the outer wall of the dome.
How powerful a torpedo is can be compared with missiles of the same charge. Think about it from a physics perspective. Water is incompressible** while air is a compressible gas. When the missile hits the target and explodes, the surrounding air will be compressed to act as a buffer. When a torpedo explodes, since seawater is incompressible, all the energy acts on the target's shell through the water, which also determines the accuracy of the device with the same explosion equivalent. But torpedoes are more powerful than missiles.
However, the shell of the toy factory was only slightly deformed after the two torpedoes hit and exploded. There was almost no damage, and there was not a single crack. Wei Sheng and Yan Kong inside the dome did not feel any impact.
"The outer wall was attacked. The defensive force field was not opened. The base damage calculation... The calculation was completed. The outer wall was slightly damaged. The current integrity of the base is 99.7%, the highest security level." The radio announced the results of the attack. It also made Wei Sheng and Yan Kong breathe a sigh of relief.
However, this scene did not surprise Galvezan in the hive. He just curled his lips and sneered: "Ship 678. Report your arrival information?"
"The designated position has been reached." "In position." "The position has been reached, please give the order."
"Very good..." Galvezan heard the expected three answers. This is the strength that Bumblebee should have. You can always trust everyone who serves with you. They will do the job just as well as you do.
"Launch now!" With an order, the three CS7 Great White Sharks, which were already ready to launch, launched an attack together. The power of the bow cannon is huge, but this beam weapon causes a penetrating impact. Attacks are not commonly used when attacking cities and territories. This type of weapon is usually aimed at the enemy's ace mecha, or to open a breach in the extremely thickly armored Noah-class weapon.
The Rubik's Cube seemed to have detected the approach of this energy, and immediately dispersed into its original building block state, spreading out in all directions, avoiding the devastating shock wave.
"Just avoid it! Ha!" Galvezan seemed to have already guessed the response mechanism of the Rubik's Cube. Needless to say, he sent the three ships to the designated positions, so he naturally had a backup plan.
But I saw the three main naval guns passing through the scattered Rubik's Cube and entering the yellow-dyed sea water. The rails in a straight line were looking at the blue end that had not moved since it swam out. shark.
This shark looks like a plush doll, with an anthropomorphic cartoon face and a harmless appearance. Of course, like those rubber ducks, the material on its body surface cannot be real down, but it just looks very textured. Just similar.
Although it cannot be confirmed visually, judging from computer calculations and the position on the radar, the main naval gun should have hit the giant shark toy ♀ Galvezan was slightly relieved, regardless of whether these toy weapons were remotely operated by people or had certain capabilities. AI, or maybe there is a driver hidden inside... Anyway, judging from the current situation, ducks and blocks are both defensive weapons, but the shark looks quite threatening. Now use this move to kill two birds with one stone with the bow cannon to attack the general. Once it is defeated, the pressure on the fleet will be much less. Those dwarf divers are at most the same thing as the previous mermaids. The armors of the great white sharks and shuttle troops are not afraid of being drilled. Besides, combat ships can launch barrages to prevent such small mechas from approaching the ship.
"Sir, the radar shows that the target is still active." The signal soldier's report immediately poured cold water on Galvezan.
"What!" His surprise was completely written on his face this time: "What can block the main guns of three Great White Sharks? Even pure alloy armor... "
Before he finished speaking, he heard another report from the shuttle force: "Sir, we have been invaded. The other party is..." Just like the reconnaissance boat that was terminated by the mermaid, when the communication was interrupted, there was some noise. Listening back to it, you should be able to imagine the sound of an adult's body being smashed by a hammer.
And the losses this time were probably even greater, because the shuttle troops were attacked one after another, and five ships lost contact within a few minutes.
"Shuttle troops, those who are still alive, withdraw to the hive." Galvezan was sweating coldly, but he still ignored the dwarf divers.
With that kind of size, if they spread out and move around, they would be easily ignored on the radar. After all, those dwarves are not schools of fish, and schools of fish may not necessarily move together.
But this raises another issue of control. How do these dwarf divers operate? Does the machine have such high AI and know how to disperse its movements and hide its whereabouts? This is impossible, there must be someone operating it, but looking at the size of those guys, the possibility of having a driver is very small. It is difficult to get an adult into this kind of dwarf diver, unless the driver is a dwarf or is selected. The children…
The only possibility is remote control, but how many people are controlling it? Can one person do it to this extent
Galvezan was confused by these bizarre and subversive toy weapons. He became more and more curious about which madman from which resistance organization these things came from.
"No. 9, No. 10." Galvezan decided to take a gamble: "Attack the dome with the bow cannon, and adjust the output to the maximum." He paused: "The rest of the ship, except those that were attacked and lost combat effectiveness, As long as the range allows, aim the bow cannon at the dome and attack with maximum strength!"
The soldiers on the bridge all looked back at Galvezan. You must know that an attack of this level may have unexpected reactions, such as making a hole from the bottom of the sea and drilling through a door to another space. Release Cthulhu or something like that...
But no one disobeyed the order, and there was no verbal questioning. The Hornet soldiers just carried it out.
More than a dozen beams of light from the ship's bow gun rushed towards the toy factory. The system sound in the factory reacted as early as they were accumulating energy: "High-energy reactions were detected in the surrounding waters. A total of nine ships... ten ships. … It is increasing, the time of arrival of the attack is unpredictable, the defensive force field has been activated, and the energy is increasing.”
Without Warlock's explanation, Wei Sheng and Yan Kong could tell that the matter was serious, and they no longer bothered Warlock, because judging from his appearance, he had no energy left to answer their questions at the moment.
"Carry out continuous penetrating strikes at different coordinates with a time difference..." The warlock thought in his heart: "It's really troublesome. It's impossible to accurately estimate the defensive force field on which side of the outer wall should be thickened. In this case, we can only bet on the overall defense strength. "... To output so much energy in a short period of time, there is still the danger of being penetrated at a certain point..." (To be continued.)
