Chapter Seventy-One: The Fleet Is Attacked
Corona Borealis
The periphery of a galaxy
Several human transports with hulls of tens of kilometers long are surrounded by countless huge gray warships with strange shapes.
Force field rays shot out from the forward deck of the gray battleship, pinning down all the human starships and unable to break free.
In front of these gray giant ships, these large starships that are tens of kilometers long are like boats with several leaves, and they have no power to resist.
In the bridge of the flagship of the human fleet, all the crews, including the captain, had already exploded.
The ship's intelligence was completely out of order, and the technicians hurriedly reported the extent of the damage to the ship's hull in English.
"Captain, the energy shield at the bow of our ship has failed, the shield generators on both sides have been severely damaged and have stopped functioning, and the power system has been damaged by seventy-nine percent."
"We have lost contact with the ships of the fleet, and a distress signal has been issued!"
"Oh God......."
The white captain in front of the command seat looked at the huge battleship that was approaching in front of him, and a deep sense of despair and powerlessness came over his face.
"Where the hell did these starships come from......
Suddenly, everyone on the bridge suddenly felt a violent vibration coming from the starship's hull.
"Captain! The hull armor below is broken! The charging line is broken, and an enemy target has been detected entering our ship! ”
Hearing this, the white captain gritted his teeth, turned around and ordered.
"Everyone! Get ready to take on the enemy! Start the backup energy source and sound the battle alarm of the whole ship! ”
......。
Thirty-eight hours later
The edge of the northern corona
"Report to the captain, I received news from the headquarters that a fleet of rare minerals from the 7380D star system of the northern corona and headed for the solar system was lost forty-six hours ago, and we are now ordered to go to support."
A large starfleet is moving at a high warp speed.
The warp bubble, thousands of kilometers wide, wrapped around the entire fleet and headed in the direction of the northern corona.
The bridge of the flagship of the fleet, the Habogray
The captain stared at the holographic interstellar map, a look of unease in his eyes.
According to the current development and exploration of human beings, there has never been any insecurity in the corona region, not even a natural disaster such as a cosmic storm.
Judging from the current situation, the transport fleet of the Oviere camp does not seem to have suffered a cosmic catastrophe, if so, these starships may not even have room to struggle, let alone send a distress signal.
Unless there are a few hundred-level powerhouses in charge, even the supreme system can't save them.
However, due to the fact that this transport fleet is carrying out transportation operations in the safe star area defined by the Human Federation, the escort firepower is already scarce, and the average basic attribute of the crew is low, except for the senior generals, even the profession has hardly awakened.
In the event of an attack by a large number of unknown enemy fleets, the chances of survival are slim.
At this time, the most worrying thing for the captain of the Harburgre was that if this transport fleet was attacked by the fleets of other civilizations, then it was likely that the entire corona region would no longer be safe.
Human interstellar colonies in the relevant area will also be threatened.
However, nothing is known yet, and everything will not be known until the fleet arrives at the location where the distress signal was issued.
After a long time, the captain's eyes were taken away from the interstellar map, and he turned around and ordered: "Inform all members of the fleet that the whole fleet will enter the first-level combat readiness state half an hour before leaving the warp speed." ”
"Turn off the Starship City Sunshine Simulator, channel all energy into the ship's weapon system, and notify all the soldiers in the aircraft carrier hangar to be on standby, ready to fight at any time!"
"Yes! Captain. ”
......。
Haburgre One Starship City
Supreme Training Ground
Located near the Central Arena, this indoor training ground is specially designed for exchange students to conduct professional skills combat training.
They can train on their own before arriving at the Federation Star University.
"Boom!"
In a spacious comprehensive training room, Qin Yu and Tang Zheng were engaged in a confrontational battle.
I saw that Tang Zheng's body was entangled by thick lightning, and a punch was blasted out, colliding with Qin Yuchong's fist, and in an instant, the fist wind was blowing.
"Brother Yu, your basic attributes are so high, you can directly harden my professional skills."
"Hmm......."
Qin Yu said with a bitter face: "Your professional skills are very corrosive, and I still can't bear it if I am tough."
With that, the two stopped fighting.
Due to the fact that Qin Yu's professional skills were too lethal, in order not to destroy the training room, Qin Yu decided to fight Tang Zheng with his own attribute advantages alone to accumulate combat experience.
Just as the two of them were about to pack up and take a hot shower, the ship's radio rang again.
"Attention all the crew of the Haburgre, the fleet will be brought to combat readiness level 1, please return to their respective posts and repeat ......."
"What's going on?"
Qin Yu was a little confused.
Tang Zheng shook his head.
"There should be signs of suspected enemy fleet activity in the support area, anyway, let's hurry back to the dormitory first, and the streets should be cleared later."
"Then if we encounter an enemy, do you need us to go to war?"
Qin Yu said as he walked out of the training room with Tang Zheng.
"Probably not."
Tang Zheng said.
"In a space battle like this, unless the enemy ship wants to grab the ship, in other cases, it is basically a battle of warship weapons and unmanned fighters."
"Besides, we still have Qishen on the ship, let alone a starship, just several starship battle groups appear together, and Qishen can be destroyed in an instant by himself, and we don't need to make a move."
"Yes...... too."
Qin Yu nodded.
"Then let's go back first."
"Uh-huh."
......。
The bridge of the USS Habogray
With the sounding of the first-level combat readiness alarm, the light source in the bridge was closed, the output power of the lighting system of the whole ship was reduced by 70 percent, all energy was fed into the weapon system, and all the shields of all ships in the fleet were turned on.
"Report to the captain, the first level of combat readiness of the fleet is ready for battle."
The liaison officer saluted.
The captain nodded.
"How long will it take?"
"Report to the captain, there are two minutes and fifty-three seconds left to reach the target location."
"Inform the mechs and stand by at the hatches."
"Yes! Captain. ”
With all the orders given, the captain returned to his command seat and sat down and pressed the automatic seat belt button.
More than two minutes passed quickly, and the atmosphere inside the bridge began to gradually become tense.
"Report to the captain, the fleet is about to get out of warp, at ten, nine, eight ......."
The technician heard the countdown sound, and everyone's hearts were in their throats, and no one knew what they were about to see.
"Five, four, three, two, one, warp speed detachment!"
"Bang!"
A dull sound rang out all around, and the entire fleet broke away from warp speed and came to the target area where the distress signal was issued.
However, what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was nothing but a huge rocky planet.
"Is there a communication request for access?"
When everyone looked puzzled, the captain's voice came.
"Report to the Captain, no communication requests have been received, and the ship's radar has not detected any other starships in the vicinity."
After hearing this, the captain frowned, looked at the gray-brown rock planet in front of him, which was several times the size of the Earth, and said.
"Scan the planet and aggregate its data onto a central hologram."
"Yes."
With that, the technician manipulated the starship scanner to point at the planet in front of him and began the detection scan.
"Report to the captain, this planet is mainly composed of silicate stone, the atmosphere is composed of ammonia and chlorine and trace amounts of oxygen, no signs of life have been found on the surface, the planet's gravity is 1.13G, and a tomography is underway."
As he spoke, the rest of the planet's detailed data was slowly revealed in the central hologram.
However, in the middle of the scan, the technician suddenly exclaimed, "Captain! ”
"A large number of signs of alien animal activity and a large number of black areas have been found in the mantle layer of the planet."
"What?!"
Hearing the news, everyone tensed.
A black zone is an area that has been interfered with so much that a detector or scanner cannot scan, and the larger the area, the higher the planet's defense level.
The appearance of black fields in the mantle layer of this planet indicates that there is likely to be an advanced civilization under the surface of this planet that is no less technologically advanced than humans.
Just as everyone was stunned by the scan data in front of them, a thick beam of light suddenly shot down from above the entire fleet, piercing the entire battle formation like a spear.
"Boom ——!"
The sheer energy made the Haburgre's massive hull tremble slightly.
Immediately afterward, the boundless gray giant starship with strange shapes appeared around the fleet almost instantly, surrounding the entire fleet in all directions.
"All warships obey orders!! Engage the enemy!! Activate all weapons! Fire with all your might!! ”
