The brilliant white light instantly illuminated the universe.

At the moment of the explosion, a terrible white light lit up a large black starry sky.

The surroundings of the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer instantly turned into a white expanse, as if it was covered in snow.

For a brief moment, the bright light shone brightly and dazzlingly.

In the fully enclosed flight control cabin of the battleship, the holographic virtual imaging system automatically activates the light filtering function in an instant, blocking the high-intensity dazzling light and avoiding damage to the human eye.

But even so, Qin Tian still felt a feeling of 'snow blindness', which was too dazzling.

And even more violent, is the unbridled and crazy nuclear radiation.

All kinds of high-energy rays are like a dam bursting, surging wildly, and the intensity is super high.

The Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer that has reached the level of second-level scientific and technological civilization, with a highly sensitive detection and sensing system, makes a judgment of 'nuclear explosion attack' at the moment when the enemy's many nuclear missiles explode, so the isolation and shielding protection is activated.

But even so, the crazy nuclear radiation rays still caused confusion in many of the battleship's electronic systems.

The many large screens in front of Qin Tian even appeared in the form of water ripples, and they almost turned into white snowflakes.

In a flash.

A large number of electronic systems began to automatically restart and overhaul, and the major subsystems such as communication, navigation, fire control, and power were comprehensively self-checked, and if there was a failure, it was immediately automatically reported for inspection, and the warship integrated maintenance management system quickly dispatched engineering robots to replace the damaged parts.

Qin Tian looked around and saw that a lot of information interfaces were jumping, flipping, and popping up prompt boxes one after another, and then they were disposed of by the battleship's intelligent command system.

From the numerous nuclear bomb attacks to the return of the battleship to normal, the whole process is not slow, only a short 30 seconds.

However, in these 30 seconds, the Dragon Soul 01 Star Destroyer did not continue to attack the enemy fleet, and the entire battleship was like a 'flying coffin' for a while, and continued to fly with the help of inertia, losing the ability to detect the surroundings and attack the enemy's space fighters......

Thirty seconds is not a long time, but it is enough for an interstellar destroyer to fly six million kilometers with the help of inertia.

Therefore, when everything was overhauled and restarted, and the battleship returned to normal, Qin Tian was already more than seven million kilometers away from the enemy's starfleet.

Of course, a blessing in disguise.

When the battleship was attacked, the flight speed was still very fast, so even if the power propulsion system was lost, the battleship continued to rush forward uncontrollably, but that was not something that the enemy's space fighters and missiles could catch up.

Fast enough to protect the safety of the battleship, and not to be attacked by nuclear bombs saturated.

But even so, this sudden 'nuclear explosion storm' still made Qin Tian feel a little.

What is called a rabbit bites when it is in a hurry!

Qin Tian understood now.

Although the technical level of the enemy's starships is more than a star and a half behind, and although the grade is low, the fighting spirit that the enemy has been inspired in order to survive and win cannot be ignored.

No, one nuclear missile after another flew like a goddess scattering flowers, throwing hundreds of large-yield hydrogen bombs like firecrackers, forming a very spectacular nuclear explosion storm within tens of thousands of kilometers around the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer.

At the moment of the explosion, it was like hundreds of suns blooming, which was really spectacular and too big.

Therefore, their crazy attack at any cost can be regarded as a great success.

They successfully frustrated the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer for 30 seconds, and successfully damaged multiple subsystems and thousands of parts in the ship in the pulse attack.

They even succeeded in making the battleship be scorched in hundreds of millions of high temperatures, even if it was only for a short moment, but this momentary thermal energy erosion still easily broke the energy shield of the battleship, and even made the warship's wheng alloy shell stunned by the hot melt vaporization of a few millimeters.

Some communication arrays, optical and electromagnetic induction arrays, and so on arranged on the surface of the hull have been damaged a lot by high temperature erosion, and even a few energy auxiliary guns have mechanical failures, and it is estimated that some parts and components have melted under the scorching heat of super high temperatures.

Fortunately, although the temperature of the explosion of the large-yield hydrogen bombs is very high, and there can even be hundreds of millions of degrees Celsius near the core of the explosion, the speed of the Dragon Soul-class interstellar battleship is as high as 200,000 kilometers per second at the moment of attack.

Therefore, even if the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer is surrounded by a large number of hydrogen bomb explosions, it passes through the explosion range at a very fast speed, which is like a lighter lit on fire, and a person quickly shuttles back and forth on it with his fingers, although the flame temperature is very high, it does not necessarily burn his hands.

Of course, this analogy is not appropriate enough, the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer controlled by Qin Tian is probably equivalent to lighting a raging bonfire, the fire is very strong and very hot, and people jump over at a very fast speed.

The turbulent sea of fire, of course, will roast people to a certain extent, their faces are red, their ears are red, their bodies are hot, and even some hairs or clothes on their bodies may be burned by the fire, but they will not cause serious burns to the body, or even to hurt their lives.

Today's Dragon Soul 01 Star Destroyer is like a person who has crossed the sea of fire at high speed, his life is unhindered but the damage is not small.

In short, this wave of 'nuclear bomb rain' is also solid, and it has taught Qin Tian a lesson.

……

The system has completed a comprehensive self-check, and the major subsystems have also been restarted, but the situation is still not particularly optimistic.

In front of Qin Tian, a three-dimensional thumbnail of the battleship was presented.

The whole body of the hull was hot-melted and vaporized with an average of about 3 mm of whensium metal alloy, which is equivalent to the entire battleship, and the weight of more than ten tons was 'reduced' at one time.

In addition, some communication equipment and observation equipment arranged in the hull of the ship were so badly damaged that it was necessary to send engineering robots to carry spare parts for extravehicular operations in outer space.

In terms of overall assessment, it is possible to continue to pursue the enemy Starfleet, but the attack power is reduced by 11%, the situational awareness is reduced by 26%, and the anti-aircraft fire density is reduced by 34%...... Looking at these data, Qin Tian really hated it.

Thanks to the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer that was attacked, if Qin Tian was controlling the Leng Feng interstellar assault ship today, then the entire assault ship might be nearly half-crippled by now.

The newly built Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer is a high-standard and strict interstellar combat ship in the true sense, and at the same time makes use of the problems and lessons exposed during the use of the Leng Feng interstellar assault ship, so it is not only larger in size, stronger in power and armament, more advanced in facilities and equipment, etc., but also has stronger self-repair and self-inspection capabilities and spare parts storage capabilities.

After all, the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer was born for interstellar wars, and it takes a long time to engage in battles in the vast universe, chase and kill, patrol and reconnaissance, etc., and the requirements for the self-sustaining ability of the battleship are particularly high.

Therefore, although the Dragon Soul-class interstellar destroyer is now 'slightly injured', it does not need to go back to the space home port to enter the dock for closed overhaul, and it is enough to repair it with its own spare parts and engineering robots, while the Cold Front's interstellar assault ship is not good.

After thinking for a while, Qin Tian decided to temporarily maintain a distance of 7 million kilometers from the enemy fleet, and at the same time immediately start maintenance operations, anyway, the other party was still quite far away from the planet Kabola, and it would take a lot of time to do it at their speed.

Sharpen the knife and don't mistake the woodcutter!

But Qin Tian didn't want to wait for the battleship to be repaired before retaliating, and if there was a vengeance, he would take revenge on the spot.

The tiger is not powerful, is Lao Tzu a sick cat?

Qin Tian immediately dispatched a wing of 24 Fighting Falcon space fighters, loaded with killer weapons at the bottom of the ballast box, to pounce on the enemy at the fastest speed.

……

The attack assessment report is out.

The first time Oletru saw the beaming appearance of the weapons technical officer, he knew that the effect must be good.

After getting the report and quickly scanning it a few times, Oletru laughed.

"What am I talking about? Hmph! No matter how advanced and powerful the starships are, they are afraid of this nuclear bomb attack! Moreover, we have launched 800 of them at one time, with a total yield of more than 200 billion tons, under such a powerful attack, who can be intact? Joke!"

The weapons technical officer said with a smile: "Although the enemy is very strong, we have launched a total of 800 nuclear missiles, and it can intercept and scrap 294 of them in a very short time, and the interception success rate exceeds 36%, which is a very good result, but unfortunately there are still more than 500 large-yield hydrogen bombs exploded after all!"

Oletrus nodded slightly, put away his smile, and said: "More than 500 nuclear bombs! If our fleet is covered by so many nuclear bombs exploding at the same time, I estimate that all of them will be finished, but I see that the enemy ships seem to have escaped, as if they were not blown apart, go, hurry up and reconnoitre, what is the current situation of the enemy ships, I want to know immediately!"

"Yes, Lord Steward!"

Oletru watched the weapons technician walk away, pacing back and forth with his hands on his hips.

His heart was very excited, even a little excited, at this moment.

Since the beginning of the war, the situation has been a bit 'one-sided', the enemy ships fly fast, hit accurately, and kill fiercely, so that he has suffered the loss of many warships in a row, and his fleet of Oletru has no way to take the enemy ships.

But now it's fine.

In the predicament, Oletru found a 'good way to break the situation', using a saturation nuclear missile attack to predict the flight trajectory of the enemy ship, and then directly attack a large-scale covering nuclear explosion, forming a vast area of nuclear explosion storm.

Of course, the cost of doing so is really not small.

Many space fighters and high-speed interstellar frigates involved in this operation were not scorched and vaporized by the high temperature of the nuclear explosion, but they also suffered a very painful nuclear radiation attack.

What is known is that many space fighters have been completely damaged and unusable, restarting the power and using mechanical control, approaching the equally damaged high-speed interstellar frigate at an extremely slow speed, they have temporarily lost their attack power, and can only try to save themselves for the time being.

Moreover, because the nuclear explosion storm was too violent, and now the radio waves and electromagnetic signals are seriously interfered with, it is not known whether the pilots and crew members have been damaged by a large dose of nuclear radiation.

But......

As long as you can kill the enemy, what if you lose 800 yourself?

Oletroux let out a long breath and paced a little faster.

……

The nuclear storm is very strong, and after the explosion, it spreads radioactively.

The powerful radiation ray storm travels at the speed of light, and when it arrives at the fleet, it is also more than ten seconds later, and there is almost no loss for the interstellar ships that have taken precautions in advance, after all, for the interstellar ships sailing in outer space, the flight environment itself is bad enough, and the universe is full of all kinds of radiation, and when the storm comes, it is just more intense.

After carrying over the nuclear radiation storm, one interstellar ship after another quickly activated the reconnaissance system, carried out intensive reconnaissance in the direction of the disappearance of the enemy ship, and emitted a large number of radar signal waves.

At a distance of more than 7 million kilometers, the radar signal flight time is more than 20 seconds, and the diffuse scattering is very serious, even if a radar wave hits the Dragon Soul 01 Star Destroyer, and then bounces back, it may not be able to be captured, because the distance is too far and too far.

And if you want to detect it with gravitational waves, it is almost impossible.

The Dragon Soul 01 interstellar destroyer has entered the 'battlefield emergency repair' mode, and has actively entered the optical and electromagnetic stealth state, eliminating various signal characteristics, including reducing the flight speed to avoid detection.

Therefore, with its slow flight speed and such a long distance, it is naturally difficult to be detected, and Oletro is destined to be disappointed.

After listening to the report, Oletru looked incredulous.

"Wouldn't it?

"Yes! We have exhausted all the means of reconnaissance and detection, but we have not found anything! Personally, I think there are two possibilities: the first is that the enemy ship has been destroyed in the nuclear explosion storm, and the second is that the enemy ship has been damaged by the attack, but its flight speed has not been affected, so it has maintained a constant speed and course, and has already flown far away, at least tens of millions of kilometers, so the detection has no results. ”

Oletru frowned and asked urgently, "Then what do you think is the probability of the first possibility?"

"Uh...... Through computer simulation analysis, we found that the speed of the enemy ship when it was attacked was still very fast, exceeding 200,000 kilometers per second, so the blow caused by the nuclear explosion storm on it would not be particularly large, but it was inevitable that it would be seriously damaged, so we unanimously agreed that the enemy ship was very likely to be under control of losses, and continued to fly aimlessly at its original speed. ”

"That's it!" Oletrou gritted his teeth, still a little uneasy. "Can you send a space fighter to investigate?"

"This ...... I'm afraid not!"

The weapons technical officer said with a smile: "Our space fighters can fly at a speed of 8,000 kilometers per second, while the enemy ships are 200,000 kilometers per second, the difference in speed is too great, and the interval itself is already millions of kilometers, so theoretically speaking, no matter how many space fighters we send, we will not be able to catch up!"

Hiss~

Oletru gasped.

Technology backwardness is such a wretch!

If you want to chase it, you can't catch up, it's just a fire to think about.

"In that case, we will continue to maintain the current battle formation and fly towards the planet Kabola at high speed, and we will definitely strengthen our vigilance, and at the same time recover the space fighters and interstellar frigates sent before, equipment is easy to obtain, and talents are rare!"

After Oletru gave the order, he waved his hand, and the weapons technician immediately turned to leave.

"May I never say goodbye again!"

Oletru secretly sighed in his heart, the enemy ship was too powerful, whether it was life or death, he didn't want to fight anymore.

Leaving the command bridge, Oletru can finally go to eat and rest in peace.

If all goes well, with the current fleet's speed of 1.3 million kilometers per hour, it will be possible to reach the planet of Kabola in a day, and then a mass evacuation can begin.

However, it backfired.

When Oletru had finished his sumptuous dinner, returned to the command bridge to inspect and advise, and was about to go back to sleep, the combat intelligence officer suddenly got up and shouted.

"Oh no! There are 24 targets approaching our fleet at high speed!"

"How fast?"

Oletru's face changed instantly, and he was almost yelling.

"It's close to the speed of light! 300,000 kilometers per second! It is expected to arrive in 24 seconds, and now the countdown is ...... 23、22……”

"Countdown to the fart! Quick! Dispatch space fighters, and all warships will enter air defense operations! Don't be stunned! Hurry!"

Oletru seemed to be crazy, his old face was red and white, and he shouted hoarsely.

In an instant.

The high-speed interstellar frigates and heavy interstellar warships that are sailing at high speed are all aiming at the direction of the target at the fastest speed.

At the same time, one after another space fighters were rapidly ejected from the battleship by electromagnetic catapults, and then the battleship entered closed defense mode.

The light flickered and the projectiles flew sideways.

The metal barrage shrouded like a storm, and the 24 targets that came at extreme speed were actually interstellar missiles launched by Qin Tian, this kind of missile with a superluminal engine flew very fast, and at the same time the carrying capacity was quite strong, each warhead was a heavy hydrogen warhead with an explosive yield of 1 billion tons.

Although there are not enough of them, they are fast enough, almost close to the speed of light, so that a lot of anti-aircraft firepower can only rest, the traditional fire control radar plus weapon aiming and shooting, the reaction time is too slow, from the detection of the target to the fire attack, the delay of 0.1 second, the missile has jumped out of 30,000 kilometers.

The world's martial arts, only fast is not broken.

One after another, as if they were coming from the dark hell, they suddenly plundered from the dark and dark starry sky, and after flying close to the fleet formation, they exploded at the same time in an instant.

Just like when Oletru ordered the fleet to launch hundreds of nuclear missiles to attack Qin Tian at all costs.

Each interstellar missile explodes at different locations at the same time, thus forming a large enough coverage of the nuclear explosion killing range, so that the enemy cannot escape, either passing through the nuclear explosion storm at high speed and causing considerable damage, or decomposing and annihilating in the storm.

In a flash.

Radiant and dazzling.

Oletru's eyes lit up, and his mood instantly sank to the bottom......
