Chapter 557: Apostle
Lin Siyuan's flagship was hit by the explosive mosquito and rolled away with the explosion and flames, some of the crew chose to jump into the sea, and were killed by the flying projectile through the spacesuit, and only a small number of people escaped in a shuttle, panicking.
The rout inevitably occurred, and some of the small ships fled outside, unable to stop them, no matter how much they reprimanded them.
The bat-class destroyer piloted by Zhou Ai, Yingluo and others is like an experienced hunter, after releasing fierce beasts like Haosen and Churchill, waiting for the hares to escape, and then hunting them one by one.
There are still nearly 200 battleships left in the battleship battle formation, although there are few large ships left, if they can stabilize their positions, they may not be able to retreat safely, but unfortunately Lin Siyuan's death completely extinguished the not very strong flame in the hearts of the soldiers, they couldn't suppress the fear in their hearts, they just wanted to hide far away, escape from those hideous-looking and fierce explosive creatures.
6-7 explosive mosquitoes gathered together can even sink a battleship, and it can be used against small and medium-sized ships, so you can imagine what the result will be.
In addition to Lin Siyuan, there was another person who could suppress the rout momentum of the battleship battle formation, but it was a pity that he did not have the time and energy to take care of the distant battle now.
At this moment, Vic? Fred's entire attention was on the flank battlefield where the Tulip Fleet and the garrison fleet were located, and the Tulip Fleet centered on the "Full Moon" was the only fleet that could fight back and forth with living warships, of course, this was inseparable from the garrison's sacrificial cover.
On the big screen of the No. 2 bridge of the "Eternal Night", the scorpion-shaped battleship appeared on the flank battlefield at some point, the flash of the neutron cannon illuminated the dark void on one side, and one improved battleship after another caught fire and exploded, falling into a large wreckage and rolling away, and some even fell into high-altitude orbits. Captured by the gravitational pull of "Arumega", it turned into fireballs and fell from the sky.
Emerson? Lewis didn't focus on the Seraph, and the heavy anion laser cannon was still aimed at the Corruptors, because he knew that instead of wasting energy on stealth ships, it would be better to kill a few more living ships. Share some of the pressure for the G-00 zone.
He only asks Harrington? Harris was able to escape from "Arumega" as much as he could, as for something else, like his life and death, Vic? The life and death of Fred, as well as the lives and deaths of the soldiers, were not on his radar.
As the Guards, they have only one mission, to protect the safety of the Duke, even if it costs them their own lives.
After the Full Moon's heavy anion laser cannon killed the 31st Corruptor. The frigates around it were less than half as they had started.
The Garrison and Tulip fleets combined have now killed nearly 60 Corruptors, an impressive feat compared to other battlefields.
The Full Moon, as its name suggests, has almost become a dazzling moon on the battlefield.
It's a pity that its "one-of-a-kind" ends here.
Gravitational fluctuations rippled in the nearby void, and six pitch-black arthropod-like aircraft suddenly appeared on the trajectory of the "Full Moon". Like a bee smelling the fragrance of flowers, it arcs through the air. Flying to different locations near the "Full Moon", a round of dazzling light suddenly erupted.
"Full Moon" bridge, Emerson? Lewis felt a vibration beneath his feet, and the model of the ship above the combat command platform lit up with red spots, hiding the hull like flowing water. Then, the electronics began to spark. The floor shook and shook, the big screen turned white, and the ceiling rained with showers.
The entire bridge is a post-apocalyptic scene.
"What's going on? What the hell is going on? β
Emerson? Lewis didn't understand, the "Full Moon" was obviously not attacked, why did there be such a scene on the bridge?
No one answered. Because no one could figure out what was going on, only the leader of the damage control team said in an unconfident tone: "'Full Moon'...... 'Full Moon' is beginning to disintegrate from within......
He didn't dare to say it out loud, because he himself didn't believe in such a result, how could a good battleship disintegrate on its own?
Emerson suddenly thought of the six rays of light that had flashed inadvertently on the big screen just now, could it be because of them? But...... The explosion obviously happened outside, how could the "Full Moon" start to disintegrate from the inside?
Screams and screams rang out from time to time, some people were burned by the electric sparks falling from the ceiling, some people fell to the ground unsteadily, and some people clung to the edge of the equipment and did not dare to let go.
The lights began to flicker, and the red glow of the siren lights illuminated everyone's pale faces.
There was an explosion in the automaton chamber, and the floor shook even more.
Emerson still couldn't figure out why, the explosion was happening outside.
That's not an explosion, that's just 6 flashes.
It's a pity that the sensing system of the "Full Moon" has been destroyed, and he can't see the outside scene, and he doesn't even have a chance to open his eyes again.
The "Full Moon", which is comparable in size to a Poseidon-class aircraft carrier, is like a broken mirror surface that falls on the rugged ground, under the trampling of one foot, collapses and shrinks in the middle, and then expands rapidly, being torn apart by an invisible hand.
There were no missile roars, no beams of light, the "Full Moon" was finished, and under the layers of protection of the escort formation, it just shattered, disintegrated from the inside, and cracked into pieces of metal wreckage.
Hull construction problems? Impossible, the "Full Moon" is a well-known capital battleship, or even Admiral David of the Star Covenant? Conan was once awakened by it during his nap, and it became a famous joke in military circles.
As the flagship of the Tulip fleet, how could the Duke have put it into service without a meticulous and thorough inspection? That's a joke on your own life.
Is that internal unrest? This is also impossible, unless the "Full Moon" infiltrates the other party's spies. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if there are really spies lurking inside the ship, how can they get through the tight security system, and how can they plant bombs in the energy system? Most importantly, the scene of the sinking of the Full Moon was that it collapsed first and then expanded, a bit like a supernova explosion in the later stages of star evolution, and was by no means a phenomenon caused by the unbalanced explosion of a zero-element reactor.
Most people suspect that it has something to do with those 6 flashes, but they obviously happened outside the battleship, could it be that they have the ability to fight cattle across the mountains? This is reality, not a scenario from a fantasy novel!
The "Full Moon", which is like a pillar of the battlefield, was torn and dismembered by an invisible hand. Everyone's hearts are sinking.
When the 6 bone joints that were dark in color and layered like scales were scattered and turned into 3 pairs, approaching the 3 Seal-class destroyers next to the wreckage of the "Full Moon", 6 dazzling flashes of light, and the 3 battleships were torn apart without the slightest act of resistance. The waist was broken in two
This time, people can finally determine who is the murderer who tore up the "Full Moon", and it turns out that it was really those six arthropod-like things that did it.
Lu Yongjun recalled the video material transmitted back before the destruction of the "Messenger of Doom", and thought of the long sting needle at the tail of the scorpion-shaped ship, and he suddenly figured out the origin of these six arthropods.
It turned out that the main cannon of the Scorpion-shaped ship was not those crystal bullets, nor high-energy neutron beams, but its stinging needle.
The "Full Moon" was over, and a special battleship with a body length comparable to the Poseidon-class aircraft carrier was finished, torn apart by the 6 segments. There were no corpses left.
After tearing apart 3 Fur Dog-class frigates, the 6-segment arthropod sent an improved Seahorse-class destroyer and an improved Heavy Sea Lion-class heavy cruiser to hell.
It's like a "meat grinder", the battleship enters from one side and comes out from the other side with a scattered wreckage, how miserable and miserable it is.
Someone tried to fight back, trying to knock them out, but the 6 strange flying machines only revealed their true colors when attacking. When the flash passes, they retreat into nothingness again. Disappeared without a trace on the radar's scanning indicator.
At the same time, neutron beams and crystal armor-piercing shells appeared on the battlefield at the same time, cooperating with the 6-segment arthropod aircraft to launch a ferocious attack on the original "Full Moon" escort formation. The only 200 remaining battleships of the Tulip fleet are like fallen leaves swept by a strong wind, and they can collapse for thousands of miles in just a few breaths, and it is difficult to organize a large-scale combat force. The Corruptor and the Wyvern then bite their butts and attack for a while, eventually reducing them to a ball of fireballs that continue to explode.
The garrison fleet was also routed on all fronts, and the battleships fled outside the battlefield one after another, and the scene was chaotic.
Under the continuous explosions and flashes, some warships even collided with friendly forces. Damage to the structure of the battleship. There were also some warship crews who suffered a nervous breakdown in boundless fear, and anything that passed in front of them would attack them from friend to foe, triggering a series of accidental injuries.
In just three to five minutes, the flank battlefield turned from a massacre from the previous back and forth.
Zhou Ai's bat-class destroyer and Hausen and Churchill's bat-class destroyers were like scissors, splitting and grinding the Second Fleet's battleship battle formation.
The patrol fleet was in an even more tragic situation, when the Tulip fleet and the garrison fleet were defeated, the Phoenix fighter and reconnaissance aircraft cluster had wiped them out, and even a fast assault boat could not escape, because the two Ipsilon interceptor drones mounted on the bow of the "Morning Star" had banned a large area of time and space outside the G-00 area, and it was impossible to make a warp jump.
How to escape in such a situation? How to escape? Do you expect a battleship to be faster than a warplane? It's not funny.
Lu Yongjun no longer knows what words to use to describe his current mood, "Mubarak" is about to fall...... It's like a nightmare, so unreal that people instinctively resist it.
"What the hell are you doing? Why hasn't the connection to the ground command center been connected? β
Vic behind him? Fred's roar, judging by the tone of his voice, should not have been very happy, and no matter who the scene was at hand, it was impossible to be happy.
The leader of the communication team said in a trembling voice: "The laser communication facilities in the area of the General's Mansion have failed, and the relay transmission mode is now being tried. β
"Laser communication facilities in the area of the General's Mansion are out of order? How can it be! β
Vick? Fred suddenly stood up from the captain's seat: "Isn't the ground battle situation favorable to our army?" Why did the laser communication facility in the General's Mansion malfunction? β
His love xΓΉ was very excited, because he was relatively strong, and he looked like an angry male bear.
DuPont? Cataland is dead, Lin Siyuan is far away, even Emerson? Lewis is also dead, and those who have fellow camaraderie with him are 9 out of 10 dead, how can he not grieve? How not to be angry?
What's more, in the near future, the "Eternal Night" may also follow in the footsteps of the "Doom Messenger" and the "Full Moon". If they can't save the Duke with their lives, wouldn't their deaths be worthless?
"General, a video has been sent from the Rhodenia Military Port."
That's when an intelligence agent reported an update.
"Transfer to big screen 3."
"Yes." The agent agreed, and moved the video material to the large screen 3.
After about 30 seconds. Vick? Fred sat back in his captain's seat, not because he was calm, but because his feet were weak and he subconsciously sat back.
Because the vast majority of reconnaissance satellites have failed and lost contact for unknown reasons, ground surveillance can only rely on reconnaissance ships, unmanned reconnaissance planes, and fixed monitoring facilities of the two major military ports, according to the shooting time shown on this video material sent by the Rhodesian military port. It was when the warp interceptor drone carried by the "Morning Star" interfered with the First Fleet, and it was also the time when he ordered the communicator to connect with the ground command center.
The video screen starts from the main gate battlefield in the core area of the General's Palace, and records in detail the changes that occurred on the ground battlefield from the interception of the First Fleet to the time when the "Full Moon" was torn apart by the six-segment arthropod aircraft.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Ten minutes ago, when Vic? When Fred tried to connect with the ground command center to no avail, the tide of battle in the General's Palace began to turn.
Under the bombardment of the "Bright Trial" and various types of artillery batteries on the anti-nuclear explosion wall in the core area of the General's Mansion, the open ground in front of the main gate was in shambles, the corpse of the puppy was floating and sinking on the blood-red river, and the flames and vehicle wreckage were scattered on the potholed open ground. The billowing smoke rose into the sky, occasionally blown away by the shock wave from the explosion of the cannonballs, like a dark cloud, adding a little more gloom to the darkening sky.
Under the cover of siege tanks at the north and south ends of the General's Mansion, the assault detachment composed of puppies, machine gunners, vulture chariots, predators and other units has attacked the square in front of the main gate of the core area of the General's Mansion on the other side of the river, and is engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the last defenders.
In the process of advancing from the open ground in the southern area - the main gate square in the core area of the General's Palace, in the face of the triple blow from the armored troops, the city wall and the air, the junior units such as puppies and machine gunners were reduced by more than half. However, the Zealot, with its powerful plasma shield, can ignore small and medium-sized conventional weapons. Combined with the "charge" skill, it is like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of the defenders of the square.
The Jackal series tanks are like pieces of tofu under the psionic blade, which are cut into large and small iron lumps. It is no exaggeration to say that the fanatics' attainments in knife skills, if placed in a Chinese restaurant, definitely belong to the chef level.
The Chariot of Flame and the Vulture Chariot have been detonated by light laser cannons above the city walls. Only predators are left due to their agility and frequent infestation of vehicle wreckage and building ruins that are not easy to lock.
Judging from the situation of the main gate battlefield in the core area of the General's Palace, the ground defenders of "Arumega" have a great advantage, if there is no accident, this assault team composed of the junior troops of the three tribes of humans, gods, and insects will be completely wiped out by the city fire force in the near future.
Accidents are happening in every corner of the world all the time. Especially today.
Accident for Vic? Fred, Edison? There are many, many more for Jin and others, like the stars in the sky.
Not only are they numerous, but they are also deadly.
The walls on both sides of the main gate of the core area of the General's Mansion suddenly burst out one after another, similar to laser cannons and magnetic railguns, which have high energy requirements and are filled with a large number of sensitive electronic components, have undergone electromagnetic coupling one after another, losing their combat effectiveness.
At the same time, some of the floating guards were also hit by grenades fired from nowhere, and the electromagnetic pulse overloaded the internal electronic system, falling from the sky like falling rocks, and falling into a pile of tatters.
Taking advantage of the moment when the anti-aircraft fire on the wall was paralyzed by the EMP storm, the 2 Protoss transport planes went and returned, quickly arrived at the open area on the other side of the river from the southern area in an ultra-low-altitude flight attitude, and dropped 4 mechanical sentinels, 4 stalkers, 2 immortals, and 5 dragon knights to the potholed ground, and then quickly left.
One mechanical sentry unfolds the "Guardian's Shield" to weaken the power of the "Light Judgment" laser beam, and the other three mechanical sentinels walk to the edge of the river bank and activate the "Stand" skill one after another, building an invisible pontoon bridge on the river, allowing 2 Immortals and 5 Dragon Knights to communicate with each other.
Instead of taking a bridge from a standpoint, the four pursuers teleported to the other side of the river with their Blink Skills, joining the Tri-Clan Alliance to attack the few remaining defenders.
In the distance, a support group of Marauders, Firefighters, Nurses, and Stingers also traveled from the southern district to the central area square of the General's Palace, where the pontoon bridge saved them from wading through the water or climbing the steep stone stairs carved out by the fanatics.
At the same time, in the southwest of the core area of the General's Palace, heavy missiles carrying multiple plasma warheads rained down from the sky, posing a great threat to Viking fighters and gold beetles.
8 Viking fighters are in mecha mode, and they can't intercept those missiles, and other flying units can't break through the defense network of "Bright Trial" to enter the hinterland of the General's Mansion, no matter how you look at it, 2 golden beetles and 8 Viking fighters are in danger.
However, just as the gunners squinted their eyes and prepared to enjoy the brilliant festive fireworks, two huge light streaks suddenly crossed hundreds of meters in the western area, spreading into a lightning net in the blink of an eye. In the 2-kilometer-long psionic storm, more than a dozen heavy missiles exploded one after another, and a large number of high-temperature marbles splashed in all directions, as if a colorful rain of fire had fallen.
