Chapter 1000: Encounter
Everything is normal for the voyage. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Looking at the scenery floating on the screen in front of him, Hank was also full of confidence. Although this was their first time on the ship, the various training for Hank and his men had already been completed. Jenn built modules specifically for them to perform simulated manipulations in order to mimic reactions and actions in a variety of situations. This is a bit similar to how a civil aviation pilot must first fly and operate in a simulator before going to the sky, and only after passing the test can he go to the sky -- after all, no one can use a huge passenger plane to practice, right?
Being able to serve as the captain of the ship is naturally because Hank has received the highest score in various simulation training, so he was appointed as the captain of the Explorer, and it is not impossible to even assign him as the commander of the fleet depending on the results of his exercises. Thinking of this, Hank couldn't help but smile a little. Who would have guessed that a lowly mage apprentice who was about to be a slave could become the captain of a magic warship, and possibly even a fleet commander?
"Captain, there are five minutes left to get to the location of the scheduled exercise."
Soon, the adjutant next to him reminded softly, and hearing the adjutant's words, Hank nodded, and then he pondered for a moment, and immediately gave the order.
"The second cruise speed, energy detection is turned on, and the force field shield output is fifty percent."
"Yes, the second cruise speed, with energy detection turned on, and the force field shield output is fifty percent."
Hearing Hank's order, the operator in front repeated his order, and then immediately began to move, and soon, the speed of the battleship slowed down a lot, and then a faint barrier of energy appeared on its outer edge.
At this time, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, but no one spoke. They had already discussed who their opponents would be, and some thought it would be the lord's troops. But there are also people who doubt this, because the lord's fleet is all large warships, and to put it bluntly, the other party will shoot his own ship. It is impossible to use such a ship for exercises. But what other opponents are the targets of the exercises?
Hank was also nervous, because before he got on the boat, Hank unmistakably saw the gloating smile on Patilina's face, considering that the eldest lady had always been very straightforward towards them, then it meant that Patilina knew very well that they would suffer this time, maybe even a big one, but she was happy to see herself suffer, and the reason was that Patilina had already told them before the training.
"If you want to learn to hit someone, you must first learn to be beaten."
It was clear to Patilina that they were here to be beaten this time.
But what exactly............
"Captain, I found an unknown reaction!"
Just as Hank was thinking, suddenly, one of the operators shouted, and with his voice, the atmosphere in the entire command room suddenly began to become tense.
"An unknown object has appeared from the direction of ten o'clock, approaching at high speed!"
"What?"
Hearing this, Hank relaxed, and now that he has arrived at the reserved position, he must be the object of the exercise. But............ What exactly is the other party?
"The other side is accelerating......... Its energy response is very strong and very fast, almost three times as fast as ours! ”
"How is this possible?"
Hearing this, Hank was also taken aback, the original intention of the Apocalypse-class cruiser was to attack quickly, so in terms of speed, it was also able to rank in the forefront. But I didn't expect the other party's speed to be faster than them, although this kind of thing is not impossible to happen, but more than three times their speed, Hank has no way to imagine it!
However, such a long time of Spartan training was not in vain, especially after feeling the gloomy gaze of Patilina behind him, Hank suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and then immediately gave an order.
"Immediately start active search, lock on to the target, and the medium-sized aggregation battery is ready to attack at any time........."
"Captain, the other party is accelerating! We are still fifteen kilometers away......... Ten kilometers ......... The speed is getting faster and faster, and it has entered the attack range ........."
"Visually inspect, look for the target!"
"Nothing was found!"
At this moment, Hank was also nervous, and had already entered the attack range, and it stands to reason that they should be able to lock on to the target at this time, and then launch an attack. However, it takes a certain amount of time to lock on to the target, and the operator must be able to detect and lock on to it in the shortest possible time, but so far, although the powerful magic burst of the opponent can be clearly seen on the energy detection spell radar, the target cannot be found......... What's going on here?
"Five kilometers to go!!"
The atmosphere in the command room grew tense, and everyone tensed up, scrutinizing the scene in front of them, but finding no sign of anything at all.
"Three kilometers .........!!"
"Coming soon!!"
"Five......... Four......... Three......... Two............ One ........."
"Already in contact with ............"
“………………”
Looking at the red dot on the radar that had coincided with their own battleship, everyone was dumbfounded, they were ready for everything, but ......... This is not a reaction at all, what is going on?
And just when everyone didn't know what to do, suddenly, there was a knocking sound.
"Knock knock knock ............!"
Hearing this voice, everyone in the command room instinctively turned their heads and looked ahead, and then, everyone was stunned.
I saw that outside the glass window of the command room, Vivien was floating there with a smile, and when she saw everyone looking at her, the little guy waved his little fist proudly, and then he began to speak-strange to say, obviously there was still a thick layer of glass between the two sides, but Vivian's voice was very clear and came into the ears of each of them.
"Ready? I'm going to start when I'm ready, I'm going to work hard, let me have a good time! “
After saying these words, I saw that the next moment Vivian jumped down with a "whoosh" and disappeared from everyone's sight. In the face of this sudden scene, everyone was stunned until a moment later, and then they came back to their senses.
"That was just now............... Miss Vivien........."
"Is Miss Vivien our opponent in the drill? Won't it........."
Not only did everyone look stunned at the moment, but even Hank himself was dumbfounded, and they naturally knew how powerful Vivien was. But to say that the opponent of the exercise -- they have to deal with such a little girl -- such a big warship? How is this going to be fought? It's no wonder that it wasn't possible to lock on to the target before, because the Explorer's magic cannon can lock on to the target in a limited volume, large and medium-sized objects they can lock, but such a small person......... Again, this is not a machine gun.........
And at this moment, suddenly, the entire battleship began to tremble slightly.
"What happened? Report the situation immediately!! ”
Hank immediately sensed that something was wrong, and then contacted Vivien's words just now, which made him feel even more nervous. But this time, the mage apprentice in charge of monitoring the radar did not answer immediately, but stared blankly at the screen in front of him.
"Oh my God, this is, this is ..............."
"What is this? Say it!! ”
"Yes..............."
In fact, at this point, Hank doesn't need to explain at all. Because he has seen what is happening.
Just in front of the cruiser Explorer, a huge black dragon slowly raised its head, and its head alone was already on par with the cruiser Explorer. And when the dragon spreads its wings, it covers the sky and the sun, as if it covers the whole world. And this battleship, which is already huge enough in the eyes of Hank and others, is no different from a palm-sized sparrow in front of this giant dragon.
Is this our drill adversary?
Thinking of this, Hank's cold sweat immediately fell. And before he could give any more instructions, he saw that the dragon in front of him had already opened its bloody mouth, and then ...............
Took a deep breath............... (To be continued.) )
