140 The Death of the Mushroom
Millions of kilometers away from the Mushroom Star, 400 warships dragged more than 200 space fortresses, and they swept quickly with murderous energy. After a long period of repeated acceleration, they accumulate a high velocity, and in a few minutes, they will reach the apogee of the Ashitake star......
On the Tomahawk, after the visit, Li Qing didn't plan to stay longer, and got up to leave. At the same time, he commented: "The decoration is very luxurious, it is a good high-end cruise ship, which can meet the needs of rich people to enjoy the journey." However, if you are not equipped with weapons, you will lack deterrence, and after all, there will be less security. If you want, you can ask us to install the weapon system. β
Ling Qi got up and said: "Compared to the weapon system, I would like to install the space curvature drive system, with such a strong strength of the Los Group, it should have relevant technology, right?" Can Li Gong help? β
"Hehe, the little brother has a lot of ideas! The curvature engine used to warp space alone will cost at least 200,000 Star Coins per set. And the curvature engine alone is not enough, the hull also needs to be strengthened, so that the hull strength can withstand the impact of space distortion, taking your cruise ship as an example, it will require more than 200,000 star coins. Combined with the installation fee to go to the headquarters, a total of at least 500,000 Star Coins will be required. With such a sum of star coins, you can purchase more than 500 fully equipped fifth-class warships from me, or 200 large cruise ships with a luxury level no less than yours......"
Ling Qi swallowed dryly, Nima, it turns out that he is still poor! The complacency that had just earned tens of thousands of star coins was gone.
However, Li Qing is so familiar with the market, obviously he guessed correctly, the Los Angeles Group does have the technology to equip the space curvature drive, but it is only available at the headquarters.
"The collision skill cannot exceed the speed of light, but the speed driven by the curvature of space can exceed the speed of light, and it is safe and fast to navigate in subspace, but it is still necessary to work hard to make money and strive for installation." Ling Qi gained a strong motivation to make money.
It can be equipped with a space curvature drive system, and that kind of spaceship is fundamentally different from conventional propulsion technology in terms of speed, defense, and weapon system. As for how powerful it was, Ling Qi had no idea at all, so he couldn't afford the naΓ―ve idea of destroying an enemy ship like this and dropping the drive system for the time being.
Considering that under the effect of the Devouring skill, the strength of the Tomahawk's own hull is very rebellious, and it should be able to withstand the effects of space distortion. The installation process can be automated by the captain's system, who only needs to buy the Space Curvature engine. So Ling Qi asked again:
"If I can afford Star Coins, can I just buy the Space Curvature Engine instead of the services of strengthening the hull and installation?"
Li Qing paused, stared back at him and said, "Are you kidding?" Only our own technical team knows how to install, you don't buy installation services, and you don't strengthen the hull, buy a set of engines back as a collection or a toy? β
"Haha, if someone else is rich and capricious, they have to play like this, do you sell it or not?" Ling Qi continued to ask jokingly.
Li Qing touched the top of his bare head, pouted his teeth and said, "It's hard to say, there has never been such a precedent." Your question is simply nonsensical, why is there such an idiot to buy such an expensive engine but not install it? β
Ling Qi's forehead jumped, and he scolded in his heart, you are an idiot!
"I don't think the headquarters will agree to this kind of sales, and you can understand it as a value-added bundling market behavior." Li Qing continued to walk towards the elevator, but the two sides had not finished talking about it, and his pace was much slower.
"Why do we have to do this kind of bundling, isn't it enough to make a profit just by selling the engine? I don't think so. Anyway, if I really plan to be this kind of idiot in the future, Li Gong, can you help me talk and sell me a set? β
Li Qing simply stopped, stared at him fixedly, and said after a while: "Are you serious?" β
"If I can buy it, I'm serious, if I can't, it's a joke!" Ling Qi was stared at uncomfortably by him, and said with a sneer, secretly wondering if he would behave too peculiarly and arouse the other party's suspicions.
"I can help you get the application, but there is no guarantee that it will be successful. But you have to tell me what you're buying it for! Li Qing did not refuse.
"Hehe, then thank you Li Gong first!" Ling Qi continued to escort him to the elevator in the front wing, and asked for his means of communication.
Suddenly, a light screen popped up in the corridor next to them, showing a conversation request from Li Qing's car. This is the tracking function of the ship's intelligence system, as long as Ling Qi is on the ship, the projection closest to him will pop up a prompt.
"Our people are urging me to go back!" Li Qing motioned for Ling Qi to answer the signal first. Ling Qi's mind moved, and he issued instructions through the captain's system and established contact with the other side.
To their surprise, the face of the person on the projection was solemn, and when he saw that Li Qing was also on the communication projection, he quickly said to him: "There is a large fleet dragging the Space Fortress in, it should be Sitin's people, if you can't return to the battleship within a minute, please stay on the cruise ship!" β
"Stay on the cruise, it's too late to go back!" Ling Qi frowned and replied in place of Li Qing. The ship's side passage from the front wing to the foredeck is more than 160 meters long, and there are still nearly 100 meters from here to the elevator.
"Then, I need to get out of the dock first and be on alert." After the other party finished speaking, the communication was disconnected, and Ling Qi saw that the ship's portrayal was shrinking back through the exterior scene transmitted by the captain's system. He called up the exterior scene and projected it on the light screen around him, so that Li Qing could also see the movement outside.
In the distance, in outer space, hundreds of warships towing the Space Fortress are roaring. In the low earth orbit of the reed mushroom star and the base below, the fleet and the battlestar have already received the news and are also speeding out.
On another escort warship, the captain of the ship sent a radio conversation request to Sitin's fleet, intending to identify himself and remind the other party not to attack the wrong target.
In Sitin's fleet, everyone had murderous intent on their faces. The fleets outside of Pearl Star and Silver Hao Star were devastated by Lei Yue, and even the base was destroyed, arousing the hatred of these people, and they vowed to make the Diwu military pay for their blood debts.
Many of the warships received a request for dialogue from the escort warship at the same time, but they did not answer, and their goal today was to destroy all the armed forces and bases here.
"Isn't that a big cruise ship of the Salted Fish Fleet, why is it here?" Someone finally found a large cruise ship mixed in with the escort fleet, breaking the silence of the fleet channel.
"Really? It can't be a mutiny, right? Someone was surprised to talk.
"Then smash it together! The relationship between the two sides is obviously hostile, and there must be something wrong with it appearing here at such a time. β
"No, sir, please note that fleet is not the military of the Dja Vultures, but the escort fleet of the Los Group...... Depend on! β
This person reminded late, their speed was very fast, and they quickly broke through hundreds of thousands of kilometers in a roar and entered the range of the Battlestar. One of the battlestars shot out thick columns of energy and swept towards the almost stationary escort fleet.
"Damn! These bastards are so daring, aren't they afraid of attracting the invincible armada of our group to destroy the country? "The battleships of the Los Group rolled to evade, relying on a range delay of a few tenths of a second to avoid it. But five cargo ships were cut into space before they had time to react.
Ling Qi's face changed, were these fools infected by Zhuo Jun? Even the Los Group dared to attack, so they wanted to inflict a devastating blow on Xitin.
"These pig teammates, sooner or later, will pit others to death!" For Xiting, Ling Qi couldn't find much sense of belonging as a traverser, and had the idea of instigating the first admiral to lead his fleet away from Zhuo Jun. I heard from the first general that the three of them had dealt with Lei Yue when they were young, and they should be able to cooperate.
"Forget it, I don't have a position if I don't make a move, and if I don't make a move, I will be scolded to death...... this kind of thought just flashed in Ling Qi's mind, and he wiped it away.
In the Siting fleet, the commander's face turned pale in an instant, and he shouted on the radio channel: "Fool, are you blind? Don't you recognize it as Loth's fleet? β
In one of the battleships, the gunner who remotely controlled the Battlestar had a dull gaze and wanted to cry without tears. According to the mobilization of action, they want to destroy all the armed forces outside the reed mushroom star, who would have thought that there would be a fleet of Loths here?
They were too fast, and the orbital laser cannon was recharged in advance during the charge, so he didn't have time to look closely, and as soon as he entered the firing range, he fired first. This cannon is a big deal, and even if Sitin hands him over as a murderer, it will be difficult to calm the anger of the Los Group.
"What should I do?" The gunner's head was blank, and even Battlestar forgot to control it......
The fleet that the base and the reed mushroom star came out to meet was significantly smaller than the combined fleet of Xiting, they only had more than one hundred and thirty warships and more than eighty space fortresses, and this was thanks to the new equipment added in the past two days.
The base general's face was ugly, and he gritted his teeth and ordered: "The fleet of reinforcements in the rear is about to arrive, and the strength of the other party is only a little more than double, and at this relatively high speed, it can only engage for one round at most." Fight with them, even if they are destroyed, they will make the invading fleet pay a huge price! β
They didn't choose to avoid, this distance was enough for Xitin's fleet to change direction, and they couldn't avoid it, they would only fall into passivity.
Ahead, the fleet of the Principality of Siting suddenly split in two, and the main fleet continued to attack the fleet that came out, and the detachment cut diagonally over the satellite base, intending to launch a strike on the base at the same time.
The two Battlestars were the first to gain range and began to shoot at each other, staggering the energy columns, and both sides suffered damage at the same time.
In the beginning, Sitin's numerical advantage was not obvious, but Sitin's fleet was too fast, they adopted lightning tactics, after a round of shooting, the Battlestar did not have time to complete the recharge, hundreds of warships broke through the 90,000-kilometer buffer zone, and the Battlestar was included in the range of the fighters.
Now, the numerical advantage is highlighted.
"All squads cooperate and prioritize attacking the enemy Battlestar!" The commander of the sitine commanded.
The battleship began to concentrate its fire, and countless energy beams were fired, and every three to four Siting battleships attacked a dike-deep space fortress at the same time, using them as live targets.
The gunner in charge of remotely controlling these Battlestars sat in the control compartment, and his face turned pale when he heard the continuous sound of warnings. While Battlestar can't do any damage to them if it's breached, the feeling of being set on fire is really bad. Some gunners lost control of going to Battlestar as soon as the screen went black in front of their eyes.
The battleships of the Tiwu also began to fight back with hand-to-hand combat, but their numbers were too small, and the resistance at this time seemed very weak......
With no more warships to attack the Los Group's warships, they dragged five cargo ships and began to salvage as many people and supplies as possible.
Ling Qi and Li Qing returned to the bridge, just as Ao Ying and Xiao Rou also came out of the room, so they introduced the situation to them while learning about the dynamics of the battlefield through holographic projection. He did not help anyone, there was no right or wrong in this kind of war, and he did not have an absolute position, unless someone dared to shoot at him, or there was an evil force such as pirates, he would not go to war.
"Li Gong, Sitin's fleet accidentally hit your spaceship, what will you do in the future?" Ling Qi glanced at Li Qing, who had a gloomy face, and asked.
"They will definitely be punished, our group will stop supplying warships and armaments to Xiting and send a fleet to carry out strikes." Li Qing gritted his teeth and said.
Ling Qi hesitated for a moment and said, "Xiting obviously didn't mean it, only one space fortress was at fault, and now that I have identified your identity, I have avoided this side in time." It is said that harmony makes money, why doesn't your group impose appropriate financial penalties on them and let them go? After all, Xetine is also a big customer of yours! β
Li Qing glanced at him: "What do you have to do with the Xiting military?" β
"I am a Xitin person myself, and I really don't want to cause you to blow and implicate the innocent because of the fault of a few people. Can Li Gong consider my suggestion? I believe that the Xiting military will also express sincere apologies for their mistakes. β
"It's about the image of the group and the deterrent effect on all walks of life, and it's not something I can decide. However, as a party concerned, I can convey to you what you mean, as for what the upper echelons of the group will think, it depends on your creation. β
"Thank you very much!"
After a few words, as far as the eye could see, there were continuous explosions of space fortresses on the embankment, and they were smashed by the concentrated fire of Xiting's battleships one after another.
These Battlestars are not without fighting back, after this round of fire, there are still more than 30 Battlestars that have not been blasted to complete their charges, and the orbital laser cannons shoot out energy columns, causing huge casualties to Sitin's fleet.
"Battleships gather fire and attack Battlestar first!" On the base, the general issued a similar order.
The threat of Battlestar is too great, the range is long, and even if you miss it, you can still shoot another round, so you must focus on it first. Receiving the order, the battleships of the Tivu were aimed at the space fortress of Xiting, they were towed by the battleship, and the speed was not slower than that of the fleet, and they took the initiative to enter the range of the destroyers of the Tivu fleet.
Rumble! β¦β¦
Ling Qi looked at the visual effects in front of him, as if he could hear a continuous explosion, and more than twenty of Xiting's space fortresses had been blasted. Other Battlestars recharge, change targets, and perform precise roll calls on Dyngu's warships.
With just a hundred garrison warships, under the one-on-one attack of so many Battlestars, a large area of casualties immediately appeared.
Swish!
A thick pillar of energy landed precisely on one of the battleships on the side of the, and with almost no delay, it directly broke through its energy shield and pierced through the hull. The soldiers on the battleship were wearing spacesuits, and those who approached the energy column were immediately crushed by the bursting energy force field, and the survivors who were far away were tied to the seat belts, as long as the seat belts were not broken, they would not be sucked into the universe with the rapid loss of air pressure, and there was a chance to wait for rescue.
Around, other Dyewu warships faced the same fate. Under the blow of the orbital laser cannon, they are as fragile as papier-mΓ’chΓ©......
