In the depths of the base group, Nakdar Continent is already the last large fortress that has not been transferred.
The renovation project of this fortress-shaped floating continent has not yet been completed. This is mainly because Hao Ren has no experience in designing a giant fortress. On the blueprint of the Kedar Fortress, many functions that are useful but difficult to realize were arranged. When the actual construction started, it was discovered that the basic framework of Nakdar was not compatible with the new equipment, so additional renovation projects had to be carried out. In the end, the construction period had to be delayed-up to now, it has only completed two-thirds of the transformation goals in the blueprint.
But even so, the main functions of this fortress are ready, and the most important continental shields, giant engine groups, hyperspace units, power furnaces, and weapon arrays have passed the inspection. After realizing that the design drawings must meet realistic conditions, Hao Ren resolutely stopped all unrealistic "cutting-edge technology projects", and instead mounted a large number of drone storage depots and fortress missile launches on Nakdal. , and then declared the fort ready for battle.
"Nakdal - the control center is online, the control center is operating normally, the efficiency of the power furnace is 100%, the basic system is normal, the protection system is normal, the weapon system is normal, the navigation system is normal, the hyperspace engine begins to inject energy... 30%, 100% 60/60... The hyperspace engine has entered a critical state and can be activated at any time... "
The system log from the Nakdal Fortress was sent to the mainframe of the Giant Turtle Rock, and then Nolan would broadcast it on his behalf. With the clear and sweet voice of the ship lady, Hao Ren saw that the entire space continent was gradually being overwhelmed. It seemed to be covered with a wave-like texture, and it began to shake like a reflection in the water, and the edges showed obvious signs of blurring: the working method of the super-large jump engine is completely different from that of a small spaceship. This device with terrifying power can move celestial bodies The entire super-dimensional unit is dragged into a hyperspace state. Even before it is fully activated, the anomalies it causes are enough to distort the real world. This is the case with the changes in Nakdar Continent.
"How are the goblins?" Vivienne asked casually.
The data terminal turned on the communicator: "Listen yourself."
A burst of noisy voices sounded immediately: "Shaking! The ground is shaking!" Can it be changed—" "Nonsense, where did the goblin get the accent." "Eh? Don't we have this setting?"
"The passengers are in a stable mood. It seems that the vibration before take-off is completely within the acceptable range." Hao Ren nodded, "Start the jump."
"Nakdal-the hyperspace engine has been activated, and the jump has begun—"
Accompanied by Nolan's voice, the virtualization and shaking of the entire space continent suddenly reached the highest point, and then it seemed that the entire space trembled, and everything around them "tilted" in the direction of Nakdal, and at the point of inclination The Nakdal in the center quickly "compressed" into a ball. In less than a second, this huge celestial body fragment shrank to the size of a ping-pong ball, and then completely disappeared from the field of vision.
"Nakdal-has entered the hyperspace state, and is expected to arrive at the target point in five minutes, and start the second jump in fifteen minutes."
Hao Ren nodded in satisfaction: "Very well, let's go too."
Three minutes later, the Juguiyantai entered a hyperspace state and disappeared into the vast universe.
Two hours later, the group of armed drones staying here launched a group jump, and all the transfers were completed within 30 minutes.
Six hours later, the last functional building inside the "Nakdar Fortress Group" completed self-disassembly and packaging, and was transferred to a drone nest somewhere deep in the X star cluster by way of hyperspace transmission. So far, the entire fortress group has been completed. headroom.
Only the security facilities on the periphery of the fortress group are still in normal operation, and the gravitational well generator is also operating at full capacity as always. A medium-sized drone troop is patrolling in the security circle, making the illusion that this place is still tightly guarded and heavily guarded. .
Twelve hours later, traces of those corrupted monsters finally appeared on the periphery of the security circle. This was still a scout troop that explored the path, but its scale was larger than any previous scout troop, and this scout troop was in the After coming into contact with the security circle, they did not take the cautious action as before—their commanders seem to realize that no matter how cautious the action is, they cannot get around the surveillance of the drone bunker, so this tentative force chose to rush directly to the blockade Wire.
The left-behind drones on standby in the blockade carried out a resolute interception. The battle lasted for forty minutes. When the battle was about to end, according to the script set by Hao Ren in advance, a "huge army of drones" Skimming over the edge of the battle area, the acceleration engine was activated where the monsters could barely sense it, to show signs of large-scale military mobilization in the base.
In fact, it was just a bunch of engineering drones running over with a few extra-large gravitational well generators, but at a distance where optical observations cannot be effective, the ultra-high-quality fluctuations they emit are enough to simulate the transition of an army movement.
Hao Ren has no way of grasping the actions of those crazy minions, and he is not sure when those monsters will completely lose patience and attack aggressively, so the best way is to take the initiative into his own hands: in the past few days , he has been observing the action patterns of those corrupted monsters, and has also exchanged a lot of information about the enemy with Salaman, the commander of the army in the distance. Although he can't find out the details of the command of those monsters, he has formulated a plan to lure the enemy against them. Still more than enough.
In the dark and dead space of the universe, a water-like ripple suddenly appeared out of thin air, and then the entire space was filled with countless ripples in an instant: it was a unique phenomenon caused by the distant starlight being distorted by powerful gravitational distortion. As the "sparkling light" spreads, large swathes of shadows emerge from virtual to real, and finally form a majestic army.
The 1st to 666th combat groups of the UAV group, the armored floating cannon group, the UAV acceleration transfer station, the Nakdar floating fortress, the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace... One after another, the combat units have left the hyperspace state and entered the main material world.
This is the "springboard" space before going to the battlefield. It is located at the last gravitational collapse point near the hub. The crazy minions would never have imagined that the "heavily guarded drone base" is actually empty, and the real main force has long been under their noses.
"The drone swarm has annihilated the invading enemy reconnaissance troops. According to the 'script', several monsters approached the final blockade line and observed the 'big army' illusion we created," the data terminal floated next to Hao Ren reported. , "This machine believes that they must have sent the information back."
Vivian was a little unsure: "Will they take the bait?"
"There is a ninety-nine out of ten chance," Hao Ren replied, "The commander of the Salaman Legion made a move to shrink the line of defense in the last battle, so those Corruptors will have enough extra troops and energy to focus on the 'outside' However, we just made the illusion of increasing our troops again. If I were the enemy's commander, I would not let this window pass unless my brain improved... "
Vivian gave Hao Ren a blank look: "Do you have to use such disgusting words?"
Hao Ren cupped his fists and cupped his hands: "Vivid, vivid..."
Facts have proved that this plan is successful.
"Salaman sent a secret communication," Nolan's figure appeared on the bridge, "a large-scale gravitational collapse was detected from the direction of Amantil, and it is determined that a large-scale corruptor army has just left the hub airspace. "
"The moths have already gone to the flame..." Hao Ren looked at the deep and dark space, and said slowly in a tone as if he was talking to himself. After a while, he turned around and gave Nolan instructions, "The drones should turn around, The hub started to accelerate for the target, and waited for my order to enter the hyperspace state. The Nakdal engine was charged, ready to enter with the second echelon. Nolan, you can switch to the battle module."
"Nolan understands."
Countless sparkles of light shone in the huge army of drones, and the light spots formed by the ignition of tens of millions of engines gathered together, surging in space like a huge wave. Next, the entire fleet began to accelerate slowly—and outside this assembly point, in the more distant depths of the universe, countless drone groups gathered in response to the call of the assembly order also entered a state of acceleration at the same time.
After a while, the data terminal said: "A report from the 'base group', the remaining troops have detected a large-scale spatial distortion, and a very large army of Corruptors is approaching the security circle."
"It's a show and a complete set. We can't put them in too easily," Hao Ren nodded. "Let the remaining troops intercept it with all their strength. Don't turn off the gravitational wells and interference devices, and lead them to the deepest point."
The control platform in front of the captain's seat hummed slightly, and Nolan activated the battle module of the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace. The original operation panel was shrunk aside, and the combat command interface dedicated to controlling the drone army emerged. In front of Hao Ren.
Hao Ren looked at this brand new control interface with a calm expression. Although he had never used this system before, he thought he could easily grasp the essence of the operation of this module.
"The troops left behind have exchanged fire with the invading Corrupt Legion, confirming that the enemy army has left the country." "Salaman sent a message that the Guardian Legion is advancing the front line, and the Corruptors stationed in Amantir have been dispatched. The two sides are about to contact." "Received the auxiliary guidance signal from the guardian, the signal is clear, and the coordinates are correct." "The drone army can enter the leap at any time."
Hao Ren gently put his hand on the operation interface of the battle module, and whispered to himself: "F2A is actually not a bad tactic..."
The two command keys of the battle module shimmered, and the simple letters and numbers shone seductively.
"The reason why those monsters were killed by drones in the last battle was not because of a wrong strategy, but because there were not enough of them..."
The sacred F2 was pressed down, and the silhouettes of all drones entered the blur at the same time...
"If you have enough troops to fill the opponent's entire screen, then a wave of A is the most aggressive operation."
Hao Ren raised his hand high, and suddenly tapped the big red button with the capital letter A written on it.
"Now, I hold the future in my hands!"
