Chapter 678: Meteor Shower
While the other four pirates began to plunder, Nie Yun and his fleet of ghost pirates avoided the densely populated star field of the Locke Consortium and sneaked all the way to a very remote channel......
When he saw that barren but extremely familiar planet, Spartak's eyes couldn't help but be hot.
"Ryan Star! We...... It's finally back again! ”
"Roar!" "It's back! We're back! "Woo~"
Cheers and whimpering echoed in the headsets.
For this moment, the Lane Clan had waited too long, too long.
Ryan Star, although it is named after Ryan, it is not the hometown of himself and others, but a huge prison that imprisons Ryan people!
And today, armed with advanced weapons and powerful fleets, they follow the ghost captain who gives hope to their own people...... It's back!
Although after the last raid on Ryan, the Locke consortium consciously strengthened its defenses here, but the battle of the twin stars was unfavorable, and in the end a group was taken away by Kloros, and now there are only fifty warships left.
In peacetime, the combat power of fifty warships is enough to deter most of the pirate forces, and it is more than enough to deal with the ghost pirate group that attacked before.
But the ghost pirates at this time are no longer what they used to be......
"All be silent! Maintain your stealth form! Spartak let out a low snort, and the excitement in the channel eased and silence returned.
Tens of thousands of mechs turned on stealth mode, just like a group of assassins in the dark night, quietly approaching the "jailers" stationed in the prison, but their hearts were like a flash flood about to erupt.
800,000 km...... 600,000 km ...... 400,000 km......
It wasn't until they approached 300,000 kilometers that the fleet's radar, which had been patrolling the high-altitude orbit of Lane Star, noticed some anomalies and began to cause some disturbances.
In optical stealth, the visual detection radar fails, and only the Mass Effect radar can work.
The mecha, on the other hand, has a small target and light weight, and can move forward to a closer distance, thus ...... Launch a raid!
Almost at the same time that the stealth force was discovered by the opposite side, somewhere in the void a million kilometers away, a fleet of pure black paint slowly appeared, numbering more than 300 ships.
"Order, fleet battle formation unfolds!" Nie Yun ordered.
The shield is raised, the muzzle of the cannon is unfurled, and the naked intention of the attack is unmistakable!
That's right, this time, Nie Yun is ready to repeat his old tricks and continue to come over to grab people.
He is not short of money, weapons and equipment, but also people.
Therefore, others are eyeing the wealth of the Locke Consortium, but he is eyeing hundreds of thousands of outstanding soldiers on the Lane Star.
The mecha is in front, the fleet is behind, and the coordinated attack is launched in a way that enters the detection range of the opponent's radar almost at the same time, which is the classic opening routine of stealth sneak attack warfare, and it is similar to the "infantry and artillery coordination" on the earth in the old era.
"Enemy attack! Pull the alarm! ”
"Pirates! It's the pirates again! ”
"Oh my God, how can there be so many warships, ask for help!"
The remaining fleet of the Locke Consortium quickly reacted, quickly entered combat mode, and began to release the battle mech.
More than a dozen fortress cannons that had just been equipped in the planet's high-altitude orbit also began to be charged.
"AB formation, alternate cover...... For Ryan, charge! Spartak roared, and the mecha engine spewed out a long red wake, like the most blazing fire in his heart!
"For Ryan! Charge! ”
The morale of the Lane warriors was already full at this moment, and they didn't need verbal encouragement at all, and they followed behind the wingman in front of them one by one with red eyes and launched a sprint.
In the face of the enemy fleet that had already reacted and began to fire with all its might, the wingmen in front obviously needed to take greater risks.
"Follow the mode, everyone covers their comrades-in-arms, if we die, at most we will lower our evaluation and drop the grade, if they die, they will be deducted from their military merits and lower their ranks!"
The wingman in front and the Lane mecha in the rear are linked by a short-range dual-plane, and the direction of movement and dodge is exactly the same, as if they are growing together.
Obviously, this mode is to better cover the rear host.
"Don't worry, if we want to die, we will die before them."
"If I can get my comrades from the Lane clan to give me a five-star praise, even if the mecha is destroyed, I will earn military merits, and I am afraid of death if I am stupid."
"That's it, now their lives are worth much more than ours, and I've considered more than a dozen postures to block each other's guns, and I'm now struggling with which one is more handsome."
"Hey, hey! Don't think about how to die, if you cooperate with your comrades, you can still brush up on favorability, I heard that the favorability is up to standard, and there may be a recruitment mode in the later stage. ”
"Hmm...... I've already begun to fantasize about taking a group of Ryan warriors who are eight feet tall and have a waist circumference of eight feet to the street and molesting women from good families, bahahaha......"
“……”
The so-called "AB" formation can be said to be a unique charging formation of the Ghost Pirate Regiment.
It abandoned the original "three-talent array" used by the Lane clan and switched to the duo of the main wingman.
The key to this is that every Ryan warrior of the "Hammer of Doom" mecha regiment is equipped with a "wingman" ...... "Ghost Knights Reserve" who is not afraid of death.
That's right, it's the legendary immortal brave, boss predator, experienced locust, adventurer who roams the endless world ...... "player"!
Through the last large-scale airborne and debut of the Golden Coin Pirate Regiment, Nie Yun and the Immortals have basically completed the proficiency of the super S-level skill of "Group Descent Technique" from beginner to entry.
After several closed-door discussions, and some special adjustments and optimizations in details, today's "Changsheng" ghost signal tower has been upgraded from the 4G era to the 5G era.
The signal transmission distance has not necessarily increased much, but it has made great improvements in low power consumption and ubiquitous network.
To put it simply, it is able to support more players online at the same time, and it lasts longer.
Even at present, except for the three brothers, there are still no players whose spiritual attributes meet the ultra-high requirements of "bearing the advent consumption alone", but it is more than enough to bring tens of thousands of "reserve" players in a low-intensity war.
Although the tactics of the sea of mecha can effectively fight against the heavy artillery of the fleet, the close-quarters combat is extremely dangerous, so the mortality rate of mecha warriors has always been high.
This is also the main reason why the Locke consortium bought the Lane clan as cannon fodder in order to pay a little less pension.
Therefore, Nie Yun developed an "AB formation" with a serious policy tilt.
The essence of this formation is the essence of a Lane warrior with a player warrior wingman, allowing the player to take on a more risky and dangerous combat position, and using the player's "undead attribute" to reduce the casualties of the Lane warriors.
The progress of technology has made Nie Yun's "man-machine mixed program" plan very early on begin to be promoted and tried experimentally.
A group of morale-boosting Ryan warriors, coupled with a group of "death-seeing" player meat shields, when tens of thousands of such combinations rushed into the opponent's air defense circle, this battle was basically no suspense.
The mecha fell, and the battleship burned.
After paying a certain price, countless red-eyed Ryan warriors stepped over the corpses left behind by the "jailers" and rushed headlong into the thin atmosphere of Ryan.
In the dim night sky, Lane Star streaked through perhaps the brightest meteor shower of its life......
