Chapter 944: Ultra-ultra-long-range artillery bombardment

This speed is already the limit under the speed of light!

Why can't it be faster-than-light? There is no shortage of such technology in the Galaxy Era?

Because faster-than-light involves the problem of space warping and dimensionality, and any fleet, as long as the scale reaches more than the limit, will have its own space equipment.

In order to be able to warp space for faster-than-light transfers, such a device also has the ability to anchor space so that faster-than-light objects cannot eject from within the range of the fleet.

A faster-than-light strike is like diving, it only travels below the surface, and the destructive power is only visible after jumping out of the water. And the space equipment of the fleet can firmly occupy the surface of the water, so that the faster-than-light strike cannot break through.

So, the oncoming attack is not faster than the speed of light at all.

Not the speed of light! The speed of light usually refers to various attacks such as light waves, microwaves, electromagnetic waves, energy waves, gravitational waves, etc.

But such an attack has a drawback, although it is fast, it also diverges quickly.

It looks like it's going in a straight line, but it's actually a cone-shaped diffusion, although the angle is very small, as long as the distance exceeds a certain limit, no matter how violent the output is, it can't be revealed.

So it seems to be an ordinary attack, coming from a long distance from a long distance, first being determined by the radar system, and then hitting with a bang before the defense system can react.

But how could it be!

Even if the fleet defense system cannot be at its peak for a long time, after the radar detects the target, it has enough time to charge and burst, and the energy defense is instantly turned on to the maximum. This is the essence of this emergency defense system.

But the enemy's blow simply does not give the system time to react!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "The Charge Shield has just been activated, and it hasn't had time to peak at all, and the attack has already arrived.

The earth shook, the heavens and the earth cracked, and the flames flared up.

Although the battleships have super earthquake resistance, even the gravity system comes with it, but the impact of this round of strikes is completely beyond the capacity of the battleship system!

All the battleships that were hit shook violently, were pushed, exploded, and destroyed the formation.

The people on the battleship were also shaken to the ground and rolled all over the ground.

The emergency measures were activated, and one by one the fixed belts ejected, and each found the soldier who was rolling on the ground, and the uniform automatically docked and contracted, and fixed the person as soon as possible.

But......

"Too fast? How could it be so fast? ”

"And so many? Where did it come from? ”

In the midst of the turbulence, the soldiers on the battleship screamed in disbelief.

This is the age of galaxies, and their radar system has a detection range of several astronomical units, and even light can travel for a few minutes. How is it possible that such a large warning area was successfully attacked by the enemy?

Unless the speed of these missiles is already close to the speed of light, or......

"They start out at faster-than-light, and then suddenly jump out when the distance is closer."

There is only one possibility, but this is only a theoretical tactic, because it is too difficult to control the distance of the spacecraft missile or something in the faster-than-light state.

That's faster than the speed of light, and it's thousands of miles away in an instant......

Normally, we describe the time as accurate to milliseconds, but in this state, accurate to ten decimal places is not too much. As long as it is a little bit wrong, it is missed.

And it is impossible to use missiles that can turn for artillery in the faster-than-light state, even if you can turn and turn at faster-than-light speeds? With a slight delay of one second, the distance from the Earth to the Moon turns out...... How much fuel do you need to run like this?

If you can't turn, you have to pursue absolute precision.

The contestants who were suddenly present understood that the real purpose of the digital strike against them at the beginning was not to break through their defenses, but to harass them, to position, so that the shells could be accurately located, and at the same time, they were in a hurry to move in time. In this way, there is no need to calculate the advance amount of shells for long-distance attacks.

They were fooled unknowingly, entangled with the enemy in the signal field, attacking and defending, but they didn't know that the shells in people's reality were already halfway there.

But...... It's no wonder they're so far away!

This is already outside the galaxy, and if it is an ancient siege, then they are in the absolute safety zone outside the range of the weapons defending the city. Originally, I was just waiting for the large forces behind to arrive, and then I would make plans after converging, who would have thought that splitting my head and covering my face would be a shelling.

"It's artificial intelligence! It's artificial intelligence! "With the equipment of the galaxy world alone, no matter how advanced it is, it is impossible to achieve such accuracy if the control system has to be inserted into the human brainwave operation.

Unless it's a fully automated fire control system capable of making such an unbelievable shot......

A group of people gradually understood.

However, it was too late to understand......

Because, just as they were panicking in a chaotic attack, the attack from the digital level suddenly intensified.

The operators of these warships were busy dodging the gunfire, busy fastening their seat belts, returning to the console, and began to scan the damage and take stress measures...... While being busy and not noticing at all, the enemy's information attack suddenly intensified at this moment.

By the time the information forces realized the situation, their signal towers had fallen and had become a relay point for the enemy's signal reception and amplification across the galaxy.

The information combat units of the fleet lost their advantage in distance and were suddenly thrown into chaos again.

The Celestial Realm, that is, the system, although it gave them a new data defense system, was actually not 100% effective.

In theory, it should be, but in practice it is clear that something goes wrong.

Actually, it's normal, because the Celestial Defense System is aimed at artificial intelligence, and it is an application developed during the last Great War that is not based on the data domain but in the law field.

But...... The cracking of the friends is not only due to the action of artificial intelligence, Lin Qiuran's doppelganger is connected inside and outside at the same time, handing over the data of Xiao Ling's supercomputing center, so the data attack also has part of his credit.

In the human-plus-machine model, the old version of Celestial for artificial intelligence will inevitably go wrong.

But it's not a big deal.

At least compared to the other fleets, which were taken over without resistance, the fall of this fleet was extremely slow, and the offensive and defensive back-and-forth dragged on for a considerable time.

However, no matter how long it was delayed, it was still captured; Entangled or sunk......

Dozens of minutes and less than an hour later, the entire fleet fell apart, and about a third of the warships completely lost control, were controlled by artificial intelligence, and sailed away from the group and began to move towards the interior of the mining system. Of course, instead of continuing to attack, he went to the enemy.

The people above are not all controlled, and they are still struggling with all their might, but it doesn't mean much, and the overall situation has been decided.

As for the remaining two-thirds, they were wiped out by the continuous long-range artillery fire......

Before he could see the shadow of the enemy, he was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and he was defeated and lost, which was completely unequal battle.

Even if it was sunk, the soldiers of the fleet, including the owners of one of the teams, were still in disbelief.

Because as the battle continued, they gradually saw that the enemy was indeed an ultra-long-range artillery bombardment, and even ...... The shells are all solid instead of flowering, and they do not have much explosive power, so they rely on ultra-fast speed and ultra-accurate strike accuracy......

Well, if you think about it carefully, it's very similar to the Americans' space-based kinetic energy weapon, the Scepter of God, which launches a tungsten gold rod into orbital space, and drops it directly when it needs to be launched, relying on the kinetic energy of a comet hitting the earth, releasing a far superior missile, almost comparable to a small nuclear bomb, and absolutely safe and pollution-free impact.

However, the problem of the enemy's accuracy can be solved with the incredible reaction speed of artificial intelligence and supercomputing centers, and they ...... When did you install so many faster-than-light cannons? The dense meteor shower-like kinetic energy blows in the face continued to gush, which really made the invaders on the fleet feel the most intuitive and shocking scene of artillery platoon in the primitive gunpowder era.

In fact...... The answer is very simple, it is the newly established planetary catapult for material exchange in the various bases of the planet in the mining area.

Since you can easily catapult and send supplies between planets, you can naturally send materials to the edge of the galaxy in one go.

It's just that the input energy is a little bigger;

The items transported have changed from materials needed by each other to high-density rocks, ores, scrap parts, and the like - anyway, as long as they have ultra-high speeds, the destructive power is about the same;

Also, the target of the launch has changed from a receiving device in the gravitational circle of each planet to a fleet at the edge of the galaxy.

The train running on the tracks looked safe and harmless, and if the rails could be laid under the enemy camp and then run over with full horsepower, there would be no means to stop the impact! The trick of the artificial intelligence in front of us is similar.

After the death, the group of contestants who were immediately resurrected were blinded for a long time, thinking, discussing, collecting intelligence, and reversely, and it took a while to vaguely understand the enemy's tactics, and issued a warning to the other contestants across the sea of stars.

At this time, the contestants who were following them immediately entered the area they once thought were safe.

However, the feedback they received made them very helpless -

"What, long-range shelling? What are you kidding? This is the Oort cloud at the edge of the galaxy. What cannon can hit here? And you're all stupid, don't you know how to hide? ”

"You can't accidentally rush into the meteorite rain area, lose your troops, and can't afford to lose that person, and then say that you were shelled, right?"

"Lie and spread some hot? Such an obvious lie, trouble the brain...... Oops! Oops! Oops......"

The last wave of replies did not fall into mournful voices, and they screamed in panic accompanied by a deafening roar.

"What are you doing...... Rushed into a meteorite rainstorm? Being depressed for a long time, I couldn't help but ask.

The opposite side hung up the connection directly.

"Damn!" Listening to the silent communication channel, several people cursed, and the way to deal with it has not yet been said. Although the shelling is very strong, the most important thing is the signal tower, and the other party must not take the opportunity to control the signal tower, otherwise......

Alas, I already knew that it would not be damaged. A few people said in their hearts and hurriedly re-applied for connection.

But...... The shelling has already begun, deafening, earth-shattering, overwhelming, and the opposite side is not in the mood to connect the wire, and it is the key to respond quickly.

Then, in the chaos, the system was successfully hacked.

After the outer defense was broken, Lin Qiuran waved his hand, and a group of artificial intelligences were like hungry tigers and wolves, pounced on the branch control center of the enemy fleet.

After several rounds of attack and defense, the friends also discovered that there were means to prevent invasion on the other side. And that method can only be blasted away by Lin Qiuran with the brute-force cracking of the supercomputing center, and other artificial intelligence always have a feeling of slippery hands in the face of defense.

What do you mean?

It is...... The door on the opposite side doesn't seem to be so indestructible, but if you want to pull it open, you can't slip it every time you pull it, and it seems that you can pull it open with a little force, but you just can't pull it open.

"It's hell alike!" There is an extremely depressed way of artificial intelligence.

"When did you seem to experience this feeling?" There are also artificial intelligence to think deeply.

However, there are Lin Qiuran and Xiao Ling's computers that can be brute-forced. Once they break through the surface defenses and enter the enemy's system, they can still exert some control.

So, every time he followed Lin Qiuran, Lin Qiuran broke through a fleet, and they flew up and soared at the data level.

At the same time, the planetary catapults inside the galaxy are firing at full strength.

The trajectory of each planet is different, the angle of the catapult on each planet is also different, and the gravitational drag experienced on the shooting path is completely different, just as the long-range sniper must consider the wind, and this kind of strike across the galaxy must also consider the effect of gravitational drag.

However, with a bunch of artificial intelligence and supercomputing centers assisted by computing, all of these factors are not a problem.

Waves of "meteorite rain" were projected in all directions, shooting at the raiding fleets that jumped out of the warp bubble, bringing them an indiscriminate baptism!

At the same time, the construction of a new planetary catapult is continuous......

At the normal cruising speed of a battleship, it would take at least a few days to drive all the way from the outer part of the galaxy to the core of the galaxy without a warp jump. After all, that's a distance of hundreds of astronomical units.

Transitions require energy, and when they enter the mining system, they jump here from the nearest supply point, and if they only rely on the battleship's own energy to complete the jump, it will affect the output in the future.

If you don't jump, you will only be beaten passively. Because when they set this place as their destination, most people don't think that this place is actually not safe at all......

For a while, I sat on wax, neither did I advance, nor did I retreat.

It consumes energy to enter, and now the galaxy is full of people's batteries, and you rush in unorganized, it's not waiting to be bombed, it's cooler than now, and now the shelling is coming from at least one direction, and then it will be in all directions.

But if you retreat, you will be even farther away...... And can you avoid it by retreating?

"Last time, artificial intelligence didn't have such means." Knowing the situation on the battlefield through various channels, a group of celestial veterans who had participated in the Great War ten years ago frowned and smacked their lips. (To be continued.) )
