Chapter 5: An Unfair Showdown

The attention that this bet has aroused is really beyond imagination, and everyone in the entire academy knows about it. Even the teachers of all the classes decided to suspend the class and turn on the real-time 3D light curtain to watch the showdown. The teachers' statements are very unified, and on-site analysis and teaching are carried out.

In this highly anticipated situation, the opposing sides boarded their own frigates. Of course, with Lynch on board, there is also the ice beauty Khadia. None of the others knew that Cadia had boarded the ship, and at this point real-time monitoring had not yet begun, but Oak saw it. His eyes seemed to burst into flames, and he glared at Lynch fiercely for a long time. Lynch shrugged his shoulders, smiled and stepped on the conveyor belt as he headed for his shipyard.

In fact, Lynch's heart refused at first when Kadia boarded the ship, but there was no way, the teacher of the simulation department found him and gave an order. As a poor student with no power background, of course he didn't dare to pretend to be too forced to resist the teacher.

The dockyard is not large, and a dock in the Academy spaceport can only accommodate the cruiser at the maximum. Even so, Lynch, an earthling, was shocked to the point that his heart was beating wildly - this is the space civilization, this is the battleship dock!

In his previous life, when he commanded a ship into the space station dock on the computer screen, the feeling was very natural, and he never thought that one day, he would experience this kind of scene himself.

In the enclosed space of the sphere that could hold heaven and earth, his Lumberjack-class simulator hovered silently in mid-air. Standing in the control tower at the edge of the dock, Lynch watched his battleship through the curtain wall, and an indescribable emotion welled up.

The Lumberjack-class frigate, like a clumsy moth, has four huge "wings" growing out of its long and slightly square hull, which are its sensing arrays. The fully unfurled Lumberjack class is 17,000 cubic meters! This is still the smallest armed battleship in the universe! Of course, shuttles are not considered battleships, so what about destroyers, cruisers, battleships, and even cargo ships, aircraft carriers, Titans, how big are they?

Kadia urged disgruntled and disdainfully to pull Lynch back to reality. The two of them, led by the tower staff, entered a towing float and slowly drove towards the Lumberjack class. Docking, opening, closing, Lynch and Kadia stood on the ship.

Lynch's heart was excited, surprised, and nervous. He was stunned for a few more moments before he hurried to find the ship knowledge in his mind.

Fortunately, all knowledge is deeply imprinted in the mind in the way of this world. Stepping on the conveyor belt, the two entered the ship's wheelhouse after a short time. Lynch closed his eyes, spread his hands, and silently shouted: "Space - I'm Lynch!" ”

Kadia tilted her head to look at him slightly, and she could clearly feel that Lynch's state was a kind of satisfaction and relief, which made her a little puzzled. She was used to seeing the nervousness and panic of people who were on board for the first time, and this Lynch was definitely on board for the first time, but the way he showed it was anything from the same.

She didn't ask.

Lynch opened his eyes, clapped his hands heavily, and walked to the console, where he skillfully called up the control projection and entered the unlock code he had obtained beforehand.

"OK, activate voice-activated mode, level C."

He knows how to sail and is by no means a novice! That's what Kadia thinks at this point.

At this point, a computer tone is sent from the center of the control tower: Please note that the thirty-second countdown will bring the ship into space.

At the same time, the three-dimensional light screen of the whole academy was turned on, and countless pairs of eyes eagerly and excitedly looked at the two battleships waiting to be launched on the screen.

In the dean's office, there were more than a dozen people standing. Standing in front of the luxurious curtain wall were Dean Kramar and Professor Cole. Behind them, there were people who had come to join in the fun because of the dean's private interests, including professors and generals of the army.

Professor Cole's face was ugly, and he said angrily: "This rich boy is so shameful, it turns out to be a standard frigate!" That poor boy is also a bastard, doing some tattered civilian equipment, is this acting? What's the point of this showdown! ”

The dean was expressionless, silent for a while, and said, "Switch out their equipment information." ”

Almost instantly, the curtain wall showed the equipment of the two ships.

A general behind the dean introduced: "Hmm...... THE HIGH SLOT OF THIS STANDARD FRIGATE IS THREE 125MM PROJECTILES, AND THE AMMUNITION COMPARTMENT IS SCANNED WITH 5,000 ROUNDS OF SMALL DIRECTIONAL ISOPLASM BULLETS. The four pieces of equipment in the middle slot are a 1MN afterburner, a small shield recharge incrementer, a jump scrambler, and a stagnant winding beam. Both low gauges are rotary stabilizers that increase the turret's firing rate and damage. ”

The dean nodded, and said slowly: "This is a common configuration in the case of single-ship combat, Brother Cole, go back and check to see if this student named Oak has someone from the army instructing him, or if he designed and assembled it himself." ”

Cole should be down. The general behind him waited for a few seconds, and when he saw that the dean was no longer talking, he continued: "And the configuration on this simulator, the high groove is...... Huh, how...... Sorry, the lower official is rude! THE HIGH GROOVE IS A CIVILIAN 250MM LIGHT HOWITZER, ONE UNIT, AND TWO CIVILIAN SMALL ENERGY NEUTRALIZERS. The middle groove is...... Scold...... The middle slot is two civilian injection batteries and two civilian shield extension devices. The low groove is...... This...... One civilian inertial stabilizer. ”

The general almost finished talking with his sweat, and he couldn't help but want to complain several times, but he couldn't help it.

The dean still didn't speak, and the people behind him were already talking in whispers, their expressions surprisingly consistent, almost all of them sighing and shaking their heads. Obviously, they did not understand what tactics the simulator would use to meet a standard frigate with a standard configuration. Moreover, the amount of shields and armor of both ships is twice as different!

"Ahem!" The dean coughed, drawing attention, "We Mimatar people pay too much attention to firepower, which is our strength, but also our disadvantage!" I think that many of the soldiers of the Republic are heroes who fought on the battlefield, but at the same time, they are also reckless. I see a little bit of electronic warfare in the configuration of this student's ship, and that's good. I estimate that in the future, small-scale combat in space will inevitably be based on electronic warfare. Cole, switch into the cab of this Lynch student, I want to see how he meets the enemy. It's a pity ......"

The dean didn't say the rest of the words, but everyone present knew what it meant, the gap in equipment was too big, the gap in ship data was too big, and it was almost impossible to win.

When the ship was towed into space, Lynch clapped his hands again and shouted: "The jump engine starts, the target V2C98071 beacon point, and it jumps directly from zero kilometer." ”

Kadia looked coldly, and said nothing except that she was becoming more and more confused about this Lynch in her heart, and now was not the time for her to speak.

The frigate has a very small inertia factor, and is equipped with an inertial stabilizer, so it turns around and jumps very quickly, and it only takes a few seconds for the stern of the ship to erupt a blue flame in the sky, leaving a burning rainbow that shoots out.

Jumping to the ground, the empty space seems to be a dark void space. Lynch knew that a simulator equipped with an inertial stabilizer would land at least thirty seconds before Oak's ship, a time difference that would mean the difference between life and death for Oak.

Without waiting for the speed to drop to zero, Lynch shouted, "Set the current coordinate point to A." The ship immediately headed in the direction of the star and advanced at full speed. ”

The simulator spews out the red flame unique to the cruise thruster, and because of the bonus of the inertial stabilizer, it instantly accelerates to 500 m/s and propels in the direction of the star. Twenty kilometers after the front, a point of light appeared in the distant sky, and almost at the same moment, the point of light jumped into the range of the beacon, and the Oak came.

Because of the difference in the direction of departure, the Oak was a hundred kilometers away from him after landing at this time. As soon as he landed, Oak couldn't wait to chase after Lynch.

A computer tone sounded from the wheelhouse: Please note, a Lumberjack-class frigate has been detected, and the target is our ship......

"What!" Kadia looked at the data on the giant screen in surprise and lost her voice: "He's a standard logger!" ”

"Block the warning sound." Lynch ignored her exclamation and calmly ordered.

Kadia was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously asked, "What are you doing?" Why are system warnings turned off? ”

"Shh Lynch gave her a blank look, still not answering.

Kadia wanted to say something, but she noticed that Lynch's eyes were full of disdain, and she didn't speak again for a moment, just looked at the tactical view on the giant screen very unkindly.

The Oak was fast, and the two ships kept approaching. Lynch sneered, thinking that this idiot was in such a hurry to turn on the afterburner and look for death!

The ship sailed 70 kilometers away from coordinate point A, and Lynch gave another command: "Record the current coordinate as point B." Maintain the current course and maintain full speed. ”

Kadia couldn't help but get nervous, because Oak's ship was less than thirty kilometers away. She was a little anxious, and glanced at Lynch, who almost vomited blood, but he shook his head and hummed a song, and his right foot was still stepping on it very rhythmically!

When the two ships approached to a distance of twenty kilometers, a big warning icon suddenly popped up on the giant screen, and the ship had been locked by the other party!

At the same time, Oak's speed slowed down. Lynch sneered again, knowing that Oak didn't dare to keep activating the afterburner, and he wanted to maintain the peak of the ship's power.

And the students watching the battle in the academy invariably became nervous when they saw Lynch being locked, and many of them exclaimed.

"Oops, going to be overtaken!"

"What is he doing, does a coward only know how to escape?"

......

The Oak was not equipped with an inertial stabilizer, and the cruising speed of the ship was not as fast as Lynch, and the two ships slowly pulled away from the maximum locking range of 22.5KM of the Lumberjack class, and the lock was lifted.

"Hey, hey, come after me!" Lynch said happily.

As if in response to this sentence, Oak started the afterburner again!

20KM, locked!

15KM!

10KM! Fire!

By the time the two ships had reached 10KM, the Oak had already given the order to open fire in a rage.

The crowd of spectators exclaimed again, and many girls clutched their hearts tightly, nervous as if a lewd person approached them......

"Hehe, there are a lot of bullets, I said rich young master, even if you have a bonus, your inaccuracy range is only 6000M, set off fireworks." Lynch said lightly.

For some reason, Kadia couldn't see the seriousness of this hippie smile, and she couldn't help but shout: "When are you going to run?" Is this what a warrior does? ”

Lynch turned around, looked at Cadia with a strange and exaggerated expression, and asked rhetorically, "Girl, you're not confused, are you?" What configuration do people have, what configuration do I have? Standard lumberjack, this kid really wants to be faced! Hey, tell me, how is this fighting? Do you have to die to be a hero? ”

"But...... But ......"

"Shut up!" Lynch suddenly became rough and scolded: "You have to figure it out, I'm the commander!" Can two voices work on one ship? Where have you been reading? If you can't get used to it, go back and go to him again, now, I'll have the final say! ”

Kadia blushed with anger and glared at him hatefully, but finally did not speak.
