Chapter 246 Loosening
Just when Mark and his party were stirring up the storm in Starlight City, the side of the fleet was terrifyingly silent, the team blocking the crystallization hovered motionless in the distance, and the large ships on the periphery were arranged by Aske in three directions around the crystal, and they could react at any time if something happened.
Everyone is closely monitoring the situation of the crystal, although now it has been completely suppressed, but no one dares to have a trace of slackness, who knows if something will go wrong in the next second, in case the crystal is out of bondage, then no one can control it, Asker and several other commanders checked around the crystal over and over again, to ensure that the suppression wave frequency is fully covered, leaving no breakthrough for it.
The atmosphere in the fleet was extremely depressing, and now the big problem was ...... Everyone can only lock the crystal like this, but there is no way to carry out any effective attack on it, if you want to completely defeat this monster, you have to wait for news from Mark and their side, they have rehearsed the retreat process after repeating, there is no other sound in the fleet's communication channel except for the briefest report, and the soldiers don't even dare to chat, just staring at the enemy with all their attention.
Fortunately, the reaction of the crystals has been very stable, and there has been no movement for a while.
Asker's biggest concern is that the crystal's strong adaptability, before they used various weapons to cause damage to the crystal, often the first time it was effective, but soon the crystals adapted to their attack methods, and developed a corresponding evolutionary direction to deal with it, this adaptation is not only offensive and defensive, but also its adaptation to the entire environment, from all aspects, it can be seen that its current form is not a long-term form, but in order to adapt to the activities in the solar system and specialized, At least its feather-like feather-like flakes of crystals certainly didn't exist before, and must have evolved to absorb stellar light.
If it slowly adapts to this wave frequency, even if it is very slow and slow...... It's also likely that it will suddenly get out of control at some point in time.
This is not only what Aske is worried about, but also what everyone in the fleet is worried about, after all, the super adaptability of the crystal is obvious to all, and everyone is relieved when the crystal is completely bound by the wave frequency, but this comfort will quickly disappear with the passage of time, replaced by a rapidly growing uneasiness and fear.
"The second team retreat drill is complete, please review it to the commander."
"Very good, let's prepare for the next drill, we must be perfect, we don't have a chance to do it again, you can adjust the small details yourself, adapt to your own habits in formation, after all, Ma Yan has not woken up now, we don't have a central commander, I can only see the general situation from the monitor." Asker seasoned to give orders to a commander.
"There is one more thing to report, we can deploy three more frigates after improving the formation of the binding formation, do we need to go to Space City to help Dr. Sun Tan and them? I fear that their forces will not be able to complete the task. ”
"No need, it's better to keep the original formation, that's the safest."
"Commander...... Are you so sure that a single spaceship can accomplish a mission on the other side of Space City? The stakes are high, and if something goes wrong in this ring, they still have the only heavy antimatter munitions on board. ”
"I trust them, and you can't help by rushing over, they should launch in a few hours if they do move quickly, take a step back and say, if they do fail, it's too late for you to go now."
"Subordinates follow orders, even if they don't believe them...... I also trust the judgement of the commander. ”
"Let's hurry up the drill, don't go wrong in the retreat, I don't want to see any more losses, we have paid enough in this war." The projections of several commanders in front of Asker's screen disappeared in unison, and after hanging up the communication, he leaned back in his chair and sighed, this old man was already very tired, and he tensed his nerves every second of fighting with the crystal, and now such a long-lasting consumption situation made him not let go for a moment.
He must see everyone deeper and farther, not only to stand on his side to see the problem, but also to stand on the enemy's side to think about how to deal with himself, and then how his own side should counteract, from the moment the battle started, Asker was constantly fighting left and right, thinking about every possible situation, Asker was not at all easier than Ma Yan, but the fatigue of the two of them was one physical, the other was mental.
This series of drills is for a quick evacuation, once Mark and they successfully activate the singularity generator, the fleet side will immediately start evacuating, and leave enough to suppress the crystalline abandoned ship, there is only a short period of time in between, if the evacuation goes wrong, one of them must stay, with their own lives desperately to contain the crystal, this is the last thing Aske wants to see, but if it can really be exchanged for the final victory, he is willing to be the first to sacrifice.
After a short break of less than a minute, Asker got up from his chair in front of the bridge and continued to connect the communications to direct the work of the entire fleet, this iron old man was not so easy to knock down, but his opponent ...... Obviously, too.
"Commander ......"
Ye Aiai, who was closest to the crystal, was looking at the blood-colored crystal core outside the porthole, the faint red light emitted by the core dyed everything around her red, and Ye Aiai's cab was even more red, her eyes reflected the appearance of the core, even from the projection, Asker looked at her projection and suddenly had a hint of foreboding.
Ye Zi's eyes were full of horror, her body was stiff, her hands and feet did not obey the call, this was the instinctive reaction of the human body in the face of great fear, the blood-colored crystal core floated in front of her, a few hours ago it was completely unable to move, nor could it adjust its own functions, it could only be trapped in an infinite loop by the self-test signal left by the Ascendant, but now it began to vibrate slightly, not the kind of vibration sent by those tentacles before, but the entire crystal body was vibrating at a certain frequency, and the amplitude was getting bigger and bigger... … This is not an illusion, the leaf has been careful about its changes, compared to the amplitude...... The change in the crystal is more obvious is its light, its original self-luminescence is not so bright, this light is starting to increase little by little, the leaf compared with the spectrum before and after it, it is indeed brightening.
"The seal is loose, and it's breaking free from us."
