A highly mobile unit consisting of tactical, griffon, and phoenix fighters is tasked with wiping out the outer Saint attack drones to clear the way for the Corruptors.

The light radiation from the explosion of the Iron Raven Bomb swept all around, and the flames engulfed more than a dozen Saint attack drones, forcing back the attack of the drone swarm. The ion beam of the Phoenix fighter pierced the rapidly expanding gunsmoke, and fell to the starboard side of a heretic-class fast assault boat, the cyan blue beam turned into a sharp sword, blasting a large hole in the black armor, and the high-temperature jet affected the electronic equipment inside, causing an implosion, and the assault boat carried billowing black smoke, quickly avoided to the left, and swept 2 Saint attack drones into the battle group, crashing into two large fireballs, and then the explosion tore through the outer armor, bringing a more serious fire, and finally a flame erupted from the left and right sides of the ship's belly, falling from the sky.

This is just a small microcosm of the battlefield, the attack unit composed of the cluster of corruptors is really sweeping through the thousands of armies, the clumps of parasitoid spores burst on the surface of the armor, and the corrosive bodily fluids destroy the connection between the armor particles at the molecular level, turning the originally hard alloy into fragile tofu slag, and some are directly shattered during the hull shock, revealing the flickering cabin inside, sucking out all kinds of parts and even the crew members by the wind outside, and some are directly smashed through the hull by the body of the corruptor, becoming one cripple after another.

The body length of the Corruptor is more than 40 meters, and the Heretic-class fast assault boat is only more than 70 meters, and the flexibility of biological units and mechanical units is naturally not at the same level.

From a distance, the three corruptors at the front seemed to smash the masonry of the vase, squeezing out a bloody path in the ship's formation, and arrived at the core location of the Virgin-class drone mothership.

The Saint attack drones were no longer able to drive them out, and the massive mothership could only rely on 4 laser cannons for the final battle of the trapped beasts.

Gordon? Lombard thought of retreat at the last moment, thought of running for his life. Because even if the slogan "I am willing to build a bridge under the feet of His Majesty with my life, and provoke the country of the Olybal family with my backbone" is shouted loudly, in the end, it is still difficult to overcome the fear in my heart when I really face death.

In this era where there is no need to shout long live, there are more ways to shout long live. However, there are many people with the title of "Banzai", but no one will really live forever.

On the bridge of the Virgin-class drone carrier, the atmosphere in the field became more and more solemn, and everyone stared at the image on the big screen in a daze, not knowing what to do.

The intelligence officer, who had just received an update, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to shut up, not reporting the order that the Children of War had been dispatched to Gordon? Lombard, because the Director is thinking about a countermeasure. His next words will determine the life and death of all of you.

They are now more concerned about their own survival than the direction of the war and the fate of the country.

"Tactical team, start the Death Knell Project immediately." Gordon finally accepts the fact of defeat, gives up superfluous thoughts, and chooses to save his life.

The so-called Knell Plan refers to turning the Saint attack drones into suicide bombers at a critical moment, crashing into the enemy in droves. to win the mothership a chance to escape, after all, drones are easy to build. Motherships are hard to make.

The crew breathed a sigh of relief and began to summon the Saint attack drones scattered around the battlefield to carry out the death knell plan and win the chance to escape.

However, when the drone swarm swarms back and launches a suicide attack on the Corruptor swarm to prevent them from approaching the mothership, an unexpected happens.

The crystal in the center of the mothership's core burst into a dazzling light. A second piece of alien space appeared on the battlefield, and then, it did something no one expected.

When the alien space took shape and the temporal effect field distorted into a corridor in the sky, the mothership's core floated into the range of action of the alien space.

Yes. While all the warships and drones fled in a hurry, it plunged headlong into that alien dimension.

Then, many people were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The moment the core of the mothership entered the alien space, the huge body suddenly turned into a streamer, crossed the battlefield at a lightning speed, and appeared in the area where the Virgin-class drone mothership was located.

It turned out that it was not a different dimension that slowed down the flow of time, but an air corridor that accelerated the flow of time.

People finally understood why the core of the mothership could appear so abruptly in the sky battlefield, its flight speed was very slow, not as fast as the Saint attack drone, and even the speed of the missionary-class frigate, but it was nothing, it could manipulate time.

What is the essence of the speed of the aircraft, which is to gain time, but what if time can be manipulated?

When the core of the mothership shining with golden light and blue light appeared in the center of the big screen, lighting up the eyes and faces of everyone on the bridge of the Virgin-class drone carrier, Gordon? Lombard's outgoing hand stopped in mid-air, as did the Saint attack drone ejected from the mothership's harbor.

Of course, they don't really stop, they become very slow, at least for those on the outside.

A piece of alien space envelops the Virgin-class drone mothership, like an amber sticking to a flying insect, like a fossil that seals a dinosaur, like a torrent burying a city.

Seeing the scene in front of them, the remaining dozens of warships completely lost the confidence to resist, and no longer cared about any loyalty and firmness, they began to flee as fast as possible, and then were sent into the hell of flames by tactical aircraft, griffin fighters and phoenix fighters in the process, turning into fire meteors and falling from the sky.

Gordon? Lombard recorded the patrol fleet's high spirits, but did not have the opportunity to record the defeat of the troops.

………………

Although the battle in the sky has not yet come to an end, for the people of the orbital authority, it is already doomed.

In the middle of a basin surrounded by mountains at the southernmost tip of the continent of Nest, a ground-based defense system codenamed "Ares" is shooting silvery-white beams into the planet's outer space.

Different from space-based defense weapons, the scope of action of ground-based defense weapons is mostly in the range of atmosphere and low-altitude orbit, and there are few facilities that can attack deep space targets, because there are too many drags to be overcome, such as the earth's gravity, magnetic poles, atmospheric convection, natural wind, air humidity, and ionosphere ionization...... and so on, all of which have a certain impact on the accuracy of the weapon system.

Generally speaking, most of the ground-based defense weapons that can pose a threat to the deep space outside the planet exist in the form of missiles, and there are few kinetic weapons and particle beam weapons.

When the Tang side was in the Mengya Empire. The reason why Duke Yadan dared to build a super-large caliber heavy particle cannon on the ground was because he directly extracted raw materials from the earth's core and accelerated them through many magnetic energy units, so that he could obtain the ability to break through the planet's atmosphere and resist magnetic field interference.

Cabreto didn't have that kind of extravagance, which is not to say that Zangowell didn't have the strength to do so. Because he doesn't need to. The "Ares" ground-based defense system is a super-large range weapon system composed of hundreds of large-caliber neutron cannons deployed throughout the Nest continent.

Due to the inert nature of neutrons, the particle beams gathered by high-energy neutrons will not be affected by the planet's magnetic field, and with the weather-controlled missiles that soften the atmosphere, a relatively suitable attack environment can be created to support the "Ares" ground-based defense system, which has become the most shining pearl of the planetary defense front.

As everyone knows, plasma weapons and laser weapons are still scientific products that have just come out of the laboratory and initially entered the military field and have not yet been popularized by sovereign countries. And weapons like neutron cannons and positive electron cannons. It's still just lab technology, and there is still a long way to go before it can be put into practice.

From this point of view, one can imagine how powerful the "Ares" ground-based defense system is. While other sovereign nations are still struggling with how to restrain neutral particles, the United Kingdom of Tulanx has put them into practice.

Just like the research and development process of the St. George-class power armor, the Thunderbolt-class reconnaissance drone, and the upgraded Virgin-class drone carrier, such success is naturally indispensable to the technical support of the Divine Arm.

In fact, the "Ares" ground-based defense system is described in the official briefing as a missile defense system, and many people also think so, because there are many missile facilities set up at several ground bases under the "Ares" ground-based defense system. But it's like the tricks played by the Virgin-class drone carriers. The "Ares" ground-based defense system is also a military project that sells dog meat on the head of a sheep.

Now, at last, it has been unveiled. Reveal your true colors.

On top of the mountains, crystal ball-like quantum radars appeared in the gaps in the dense forest, on the flat ground near the top of the mountain. One anti-aircraft missile launcher after another slowly turned, bringing the surrounding airspace into the defense.

In the middle of the basin surrounded by mountains, the underground silos used to launch deep-space missiles were opened, and what was pushed to the ground were square barrels with silver glittering silver, and the part that protruded from the ground alone was more than 20 meters long. Under the adjustment of the electronic control system, one silver-white beam of light after another shot out towards the blue sky slightly north.

In this military base, from the center of the basin to the top of the mountain around the mountains, there are 12 such neutron guns, and the entire "Ares" ground-based defense system has 12 similar military bases. The division is located throughout the territory of "Cabreto".

In other words, a total of 144 neutron cannons are deployed on the planet to defend against threats from high-altitude orbits and outer deep space.

If you add up the reactor, neutron source, gain module, resonator and other equipment, a neutron cannon is even larger than some small space stations. To put it bluntly, the military hollowed out almost the entire basin and even the surrounding mountain range to build such a military base.

I have to say that Zanggowell still cares about his old life, but His Majesty the King never thought that he would be stabbed to death by Tang Fang with a sword at that moment and in that way.

Of course, the Ares ground-based defenses don't fail because their king has returned to heaven, and when the Skywalker Guards appeared in the outer void of Cabreto and swept through the garrison, the monsters that lurked underground showed their fangs at Elizabeth's behest.

This put a strong pressure on the Skywalker Guard, who could not get close to the planet's orbit at all, and could only rely on the way of wandering, eating away at the strength of the garrison little by little, and at the same time being eaten away by "Ares".

Trading the strength of the Skywalker Guard for the strength of the garrison was definitely a loss-making transaction, but Gilco in particular had no choice.

He had to buy time for Henrietta and Don to evacuate Cabreto, even if it was for the entire Skywalker Guard.

Like Saike? Like the children that Bakar rescued from "Nasero", the Skywalker Guard, from the command level to the general crew, are all talents trained by Natasha Military Academy, most of them have no aristocratic background, no family wealth, most of them come from difficult single-parent families, or are directly social orphans.

Such an identity background gives them a kind of perseverance and loyalty that ordinary soldiers do not have. Henrietta gave them a chance to survive in this world, and it was fair that they gave him their own lives in return.

Therefore, even if they knew that the Children of War were coming from Leo Military Harbor under the leadership of Tyron, they would never take half a step back.

Death is a frightening thing, but the greatest thing about humans compared to animals is that they can control their behavior with their feelings, overcome selfish desires with reason, and overcome fear with courage.

The people of the Skywalker Guard are never short of courage.

Unlike the sons of war, they do not talk about loyalty, honor, or origin, they only talk about gratitude.

Archduke Luls once made such a comment that the troops with this kind of military spirit lacked explosive power, Henrietta did not refute it, and Melol did not refute it, and Gilcott asked His Excellency the Grand Duke, "Do you believe in human nature?" ”

The Skywalker Guard may not really have explosive power, but it must have the brightest flash.

Just like some people leave a lot of wealth for future generations, while others choose to pass on a piece of the spirit.

The Children of War belong to the former, and the Skywalker Guard belongs to the latter.

In the same way, in the face of the national situation, Zanggowell has always implemented the word "fight", while Henrietta prefers the more moderate word "sparse", which is why he can change his mind in time after being deflated by the Tang side at the beginning, and why he made the choice of giving up power and respecting the changes of the times after Melore's death.

Gilcot didn't know what Tang Fang was thinking, until Henrietta returned to the "Mirrorlight", and just as the old man was crying with Melore's corpse, the Skywalker Guard welcomed the old rival War Child.

But what is puzzling is that "Ares", who was supposed to cooperate with the Children of War and give the Skywalker Guard a deadly pursuit, suddenly went offline and stopped operating.

Including the command of the garrison and Prince Tyranny, who had just arrived with the Children of War, they didn't know what was going on, and wondered why the support fire from the ground suddenly stopped. (To be continued.) )
