Two huge fleets faced each other in the cold and silent space. Although the distance between the two sides was hundreds of thousands of kilometers, the tense atmosphere had penetrated into everyone's bones.
"Zeratul, are these your people?"
Although I have a basic understanding of the situation, I still asked the dark templar beside me.
"From the perspective of Protos, they are my people," Zeratul's voice sounded low and slow, "but maybe Tadarim is not willing to recognize us exiled heretics as his own compatriots." .”
It's really a painful xenophobic spirit. After listening to Zeratul's words, I sighed in my heart.
The internal division of Protos has already been repaired with the joint efforts of Zeratul and Tassadar, but the branch tribe of Tadarim seems to have returned to the dark templar who is regarded as a "heretic". It is unacceptable to be embraced by the tribe. These secrets that are difficult to know in the original "plot" are really eye-opening-like a sentence I heard a long time ago, the person who hates you the most is often your countrymen.
"What is your request?"
I had already made a decision in my heart, so I just politely said something to the other party, but Pross took this inquiry as a sign of weakness, and immediately said in a rising tone: "Leave our holy place immediately, hand over our artifact, And you, as the leader of this force, must come to our warship in person to express remorse for your reckless behavior"
"Ground troops, keep working."
I shrugged my shoulders and ordered calmly. Immediately, several research ships that had stopped moving began to scan and analyze the Protos halls again.
Naturally, I am not the kind of person who will desecrate other people's beliefs and treasures at will, so even if Tadarim does not appear, I will not destroy these Protos relics rashly, but just do my best to these mysterious buildings. Careful exploration, even Zeratul himself has no objection to our harmless investigation, but in the eyes of the fanatical and xenophobic Tadarim, maybe we "foreigners" are just standing on their side The holy land of the ancestors of the ancestors is already a great blasphemy. For such an unreasonable theory, I think it is the best way to deal with it without paying attention.
If your sister hadn't looked at Uncle Z's face, I would have ordered Protos to unilaterally freeze the bill of rights at this time, and it wouldn't take long for the family to be exterminated
The actions of our ground troops immediately enraged the Tadarim Fleet, which was confronting the Imperial Fleet hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, and the enemy commander named Pross issued a ultimatum-like ultimatum to us. Manifesto: "Stupid and savage aliens, you must pay for your ignorance. Your fragile spaceship must be turned into a fire of atonement for the ancestors of Protos to purify your crimes."
After Pross completed such a stern ultimatum, our mothership mainframe immediately sent out a high-energy response alarm. I didn't expect the other party's patience to be more lacking than I imagined. The total video was less than three or two sentences before decisively going offline. open
As a powerful race with the highest technology in this star area, the fleet of Protos is naturally not comparable to those human spaceships, not to mention that the number of opponents is nearly 10,000 in total. In an instant, the main engine of the mothership issued a rapid alarm sound.
"Warning Warning High Energy Response Ahead High Energy Response Warship Shield Power Boost Ready to Counter Artillery Fire."
The more than a thousand fusiform battleships that followed the "Protoss" mothership before were as expected, they were the famous void ships—of course, there is another name called the curved light ship, I think the second type The title is more appropriate, because after knowing the true meaning of the word "Void", I feel that the name of these warships is not worthy of the name.
Through the holographic projection in front of me, I can see that the mechanical arms at the front of the shuttle-shaped battleships are slowly opening, and a series of focusing prisms inside are floating bright blue-white lights, starting hundreds of thousands of kilometers away. Charge, and this energy has not been launched for a long time, which proves that in the real interstellar world, the early charge of the warp light ship does not need to continuously attack a specific target-this huge difference from the game setting makes this A concentrated photon cannon that can multiply its power in an attack is even more threatening, just like those Zerg that can create mobile hatching pools and one-time flying dragons on the front line, it seems that existence in the real world will always be better than The information projection on the earth is more than one level stronger.
"Zeratul, I'm sorry, but it looks like I'll have to fight your people."
The sudden turn of the situation made this seasoned warrior feel a little bit of struggle. Having had some contact with the Imperial warriors, he already had some understanding of our strength, especially Lilina's two amazing shots made him feel a little bit of our strength. Although this understanding is still very superficial, it is enough for him to understand that the Protos fleet, which is hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, does not necessarily have any advantage in this confrontation. The result would be bad, but in the end, he let out a long sigh.
Things have developed to this point, and no one can stop the outbreak of the battle.
"Imperial Fleet, the overall anti-phasing subsidiary unit enters the mothership protection force field battleship main gun charging, energy skimming device target, all enemy energy attack equipment"
After obtaining my combat permission, the captain of the mothership immediately issued a series of precise orders skillfully. The Imperial Fleet, which has always been as quiet as a beast lurking in the shadows, finally revealed its true colors in the face of Tadarim's active provocation. Horror Fangs.
Strictly speaking, even though there was an exchange of fire with the fleet of the Independent Federation before, it was just a personal crushing game between Pandora and Viska. Thousands of human warships were even more difficult for two strategic-level little girls. Toys are not even considered. Today is the real confrontation between the Imperial Fleet and the Alien Fleet. Therefore, I had no reservations at the beginning and ordered all kinds of equipment that sounded extremely good to be activated one by one.
Astonishing energy flows through every pipeline of the huge battleship, and the sound of the energy flow rises sharply like the whistle of a fast-approaching train. Headed by the flagship Eternal-class battlecruiser, each Xiling spaceship under the rear cooling grid In an instant, it changed from dark red to dazzling white. Under the joint energy supply of three different space psionic energy wells, the star river main cannon on the bow of the Eternal class gradually emerged with brilliant sparks. This unprecedentedly powerful concentrated energy cannon The charging even made the bridge we were on tremble slightly—or maybe this is my illusion. To be honest, even if you just look at it from the holographic projection, the charging process of the galaxy is too burning.
There was a complicated light in Zeratul's eyes. On the one hand, the fanatical pagans of Tadarim were the enemies of the Dark Templar. They even attacked the Protos of Shakuras more than once. They have launched unreasonable attacks, and in many cases, they always "purify" every dark templar they encounter as heresy, but on the other hand, even if they are enemies, the current The situation is also that a group of "imperial troops" of unknown origin are firing at their own people, so Uncle Z is very entangled.
At this time, the charging of the enemy's more than a thousand curved light ships has finally ended. Our non-evasive response may have made Prouss a little bit suspicious, but this did not stop his determination to attack us in the slightest.
The distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers is short for a concentrated cannon at the speed of light, but the core computer loaded on the Eternal class, which can be called abnormal in the central computer of any kind of imperial warship, is faster than the speed of light. When the thousands of huge photon jets were about to touch the forward of the Imperial Fleet, a synthesized female voice resounded through the bridge: "Antiphasing begins"
Like a reflection in the water that was suddenly disturbed, the huge imperial fleet trembled unrealistically for a moment, as if it had become a picture without substance.
The torrent of photons that took a long time to suffocate from the opponent's thousands of photons just penetrated the imperial fleet that had been transformed into an image, and even the maintenance robot outside responsible for polishing and oiling the flagship of the legion and changing the three filters did not hurt a single one.
But this was only the beginning of the panic for the Tadarim fleet.
"Activate the energy skimmer."
I nodded to the captain next to me.
Let me see how powerful Tavel's latest achievement is-the energy skimmer, Tavel researched and developed it based on my special ability, and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to trial-produce the first generation of experimental equipment for energy attacks. It can't completely simulate my ability, but it is enough to nullify all conventional energy attacks.
The Imperial Fleet, which had entered a state of nothingness, slightly adjusted its queue, not only did not avoid the huge torrent of photons, but instead faced the enemy's attacks head-on one by one, and then gradually re-entered the materialization.
"The anti-phasing effect is coming to an end, the energy skimmer is successfully activated, and the target energy sample has been obtained... The energy channel is being established... The channel is being established... The power of the energy skimmer is being increased... The test data is ready to be recorded."
A blue halo passed across every Xiling spaceship under the attack of the curved light ship, and the entire imperial fleet also lifted the state of nothingness at the same time. Thousands of photon torrents that were charged to the extreme finally hit the substantial The target instantly stirred up a dazzling white flame on our spaceship, and the Tadarim fleet, which was still in astonishment just now, saw that their attack worked, and immediately increased the output power of the curved light ship even harder—until They found that all the energy of the spacecraft has been out of control.
The light beam connected between the light-curving ship's energy-gathering crystal and the Xiling spacecraft is growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In a few seconds, it has exceeded the maximum power attack that a normal light-curving ship can release. The dazzling blue-white Energy sparks began to crackle and burst from the energy-gathering crystal on the bow of the curved light ship, and then gradually spread to their entire hull. Because it was out of control from the inside out, the Protoss were proud of it. The plasma shields had no effect at all, and in just ten seconds, the plasma shields on the light warps were already crumbling—their last remaining energy was being exhausted by the siphon of the energy skimmers.
The captains of those light-bending ships tried to cut off the energy supply of the focusing crystals, but the energy channels established by the energy-stealing devices have spread all over their entire hulls, and as long as they can conduct energy, they have been precisely controlled by the Eternal-class mainframe. Subsumed into the energy channel, their resistance is completely futile.
Soon, more than a thousand curved light ships that had been floating with a light blue halo before gradually dimmed, dense energy sparks covered their streamlined hulls, and these completely drained Protos warships began to distort and deform. It was the energy skimmers squeezing the crystal energy in their structures. Protos tried to contact the soldiers in the battleships, but he could only get a shriek of screams—after thirteen seconds, the energy skimmers had already begun to absorb Protos The spiritual energy of a person.
In the end, when the soul of the last warship captain was completely drained, even the chemical energy of every cell in his body was completely drained, the energy skimmer finally completed this gluttonous meal, and more than a thousand ships The light warps were released from the force field as dark, twisted metal wrecks, and they crashed crookedly to the surface of the Knob.
"The energy skimmer is fully charged, and the energy form is being converted... the first attack of the Galaxy's main gun..."
Accompanied by such a plain female mechanical voice, the unprecedented triple-charged "Galaxy" main gun released a huge torrent of energy several kilometers in diameter. Under my instruction, it avoided the three ships of Tadarim aircraft carrier, but a ""-shaped cut in its phalanx of thousands of frigates.
In the face of this added version of the "galaxy" that can cut small planets in half, the plasma shield does not seem to exist. In the phalanx of Tadarim, a series of explosions illuminate the dark and cold starry sky.
Just after the first attack was completed, the mechanical female voice resounded through the bridge again: "... the energy form is being converted... the second attack of the Galaxy main gun..."
"...the third attack of the Galaxy's main cannon..."
"...the fourth attack of the Galaxy's main cannon..."
The huge light cuts vertically and horizontally in the enemy's fleet, one by one, one by one...
Until all the energy channels of the main gun of the Galaxy are seriously overloaded—this strategic weapon is used to fire continuously like a machine gun, thanks to the fact that we installed a second buffer system for it in advance.
After our attack started, the Protos fleet, which was in a brief chaos because all the 1,000 curved light ships were sucked up and crashed within 20 seconds, also quickly organized an effective counterattack, but such a counterattack is in our opinion. It's really a bit weak, maybe it's because I'm used to bullying humans in this star area by relying on my powerful technology. When facing the strange army of the Xiling Empire, the first time I was hit so hard that the opponent's attack seemed a little hesitant. This momentary hesitation allowed our assault ship and gravitational well effect ship to successfully block the entire battlefield through space jumping, completely preventing the opponent from escaping with the best space teleportation—although I am not sure what their space technology is. to what extent.
The counterattack firepower from the Tadarim Fleet finally descended on the Imperial Fleet. At the beginning, it was just some unwelcome tentative attacks. Obviously, they were very impressed with the scene where the energy skimmers sucked up a thousand warships just now. There was lingering fear in their hearts, for fear that they would become the next victim of this terrible weapon, but soon they discovered that the vicious weapon was no longer effective.
After all, it is an experimental product. It absorbs such a huge amount of energy at one time, and then it needs to be concentrated on the main gun of the mothership through void conduction. It is inevitable that it needs to be cooled.
"The shield strength of the third formation is decreasing... Space transition... The formation is adjusted... The mothership is fully fired..."
The electronically synthesized mechanical female voice reported the battle situation unhurriedly. Although the attack of these Protos warships can cause some damage to the imperial fleet, unless they can use human sea tactics to surround us, otherwise with such firepower, they can Destroying our shields is a miracle—in space confrontation, the Imperial Fleet has one of the most annoying tactics, that is "jump maneuver". The automatic robots are all capable of jumping in space. On an interstellar battlefield, our entire fleet can use jumping in space to change the entire formation instantaneously. With the ability to switch positions with intact units in the rear, we are always engaging the enemy with ships in their prime—and this is based on the premise that our ships are far more powerful than our opponents.
Bright laser beams staggered in the cosmic space, and each flash meant a burst of energy enough to kill countless statements. The imperial fleet formed a huge joint shield, blocking most of the enemy's attacks outside the shield, except We suffered negligible damage aside from a few fragile drones and cannon fodder units piloted by battle golems that were knocked out while blocking the enemy's deadliest attacks, while Protos's battleships were left behind after their plasma shields were depleted. Then began a large number of battle damage.
In fact, I was surprised that their plasma shields were able to withstand the first salvo of the Imperial fleet.
"What is their aircraft carrier doing?"
Just as we were teasing... ahem, when we were facing the enemy, Lilina suddenly reminded me, and at this moment I suddenly realized that the three Protos aircraft carriers that hadn't shown any offensive intentions since the beginning of the battle were really suspicious Already—are they calmly watching their fleet set off fireworks
"Those halos just appeared," Qianqian frowned, pointing to the layer upon layer of halo-like objects that suddenly appeared below the enemy aircraft carrier displayed on the holographic projection. She used her unique and cold way to carry out the operation while the ability had not been released. Analyzing, "They haven't attacked yet, and they may be accumulating energy to launch a surprise attack. The Galaxy's main gun can be fired again in a few minutes. We'd better kill one of their aircraft carriers to calm these guys down."
However, it seems that the enemy does not intend to wait for a few more minutes. With the sudden sound of the alarm from the main engine of the mothership, we instantly detected a large-scale abnormality in the gravitational force of the surrounding space.
In the next second, the bow main gun of the Eternal class was surrounded by thousands of small fighters that suddenly appeared.
Protos's aircraft carrier... actually relies on space jumps to deploy carrier aircraft
I didn't expect this at all. This is too far from the "setting data" in my impression. If I had known that the enemy still had this trick, I should have kept a gravitational well effect ship near the Eternal class.
Just when I was surprised, those thousands of fighter jets that were directly sent to the position of our main guns using space technology were already covered with squeaking electric sparks, and slammed into the "Galaxy" that had just started to recharge.
They're going to detonate our main gun M
