Chapter 40 - Science and Magic

Shortly after Erich's Sixth Fleet arrived, Zhang Chuanlan also arrived with the Fifth Fleet. The three fleets gathered together in a pomp and circumstance, and the orbit of the moon was filled with warships.

It was getting late, even though there was nothing on the moon. The others didn't rush to talk, and they all rested.

The next day, everyone gathered on the Hindenburg, where the staff was transformed into the headquarters. In order to take care of the Paraná and the others, the largest astrolabe in the middle has been changed to a holographic star map, and the map on the wall has also added several holographic projections.

Christina hadn't met Erich yet, and the two exchanged a few words.

"Then, as the commander-in-chief of the fleet, I will begin to exercise my powers." Ten stars glittered on Erich's shoulders, "According to the authorization of the Joint Council, I have the authority to form a command on my own. Chuanlan, you are here to be my chief of staff. ”

Zhang Chuanlan nodded, and Erich continued: "Vice Admiral Paraná, please be the commander of the vanguard fleet. ”

Barana said humbly: "Commander-in-chief, it's good to call me Bala." ”

"Here's how it goes. The flagship of the Combined Fleet is the USS Hindenburg, the vanguard is composed of battleship detachments and destroyer detachments of the Fifth and Third Fleets, and the flagship is the Yellow Emperor, Paraná, where you can form your own Forward Command. All the aircraft carriers were concentrated in the middle army, keeping a certain distance from the vanguard so as not to be attacked. "All the battleships were equipped with electromagnetic guns, each carrying two bases of ammunition to ensure the success of the first phase of the operation. ”

"So, let's go back to our respective fleets first. Paraná, you can get to know your future subordinates first. ”

Commanding the Fifth Fleet for the first time, Paraná was a little apprehensive. He was afraid that his strategy would be different from that of the Fifth Fleet, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to convince the public. However, Zhang Chuanlan explained that the Fifth Fleet was very adaptable, and he did not need to change his tactics. The captain of the Yellow Emperor was humble and completed all orders cleanly, which made Parana breathe a sigh of relief.

"Lena, shouldn't you stay on Earth in case Motriti and them sneak attack?" Paraná was carrying his luggage aboard the Yellow Emperor. Seeing that Lena also followed, it was a little strange.

"Motriti should be running around the universe being chased, and she doesn't have time to sneak up on Earth. Mercury won't be coming back anytime soon, and her ghostly cloak will take time to recover. If there are other Apocalypsees who are hostile to you, they should be the first to attack your fleet. "Lena was eating potato chips, and she ate them in a strange way, the bag of chips was suspended in the air, and the chips were flying into Lena's mouth one by one. Lena had a large pile of scrolls and magic books floating behind her, and she was bouncing upside down and feeling relaxed.

"Magic changes lives." Paraná lamented, "When will the technology of the earth become like this?" ”

"I'll help you?" Lena snapped her fingers, and Paraná's luggage floated up.

"Don't confuse our stuff." Parana wasn't at all at ease with Lina's errands. "I don't want to be sucked in by your magic scroll or anything in the middle of the night."

"Hey, don't worry about me." Lena patted her chest and reassured.

"It's just that I don't feel at ease when you do things......"

"Hmph, then you can move it yourself!" Paraná's luggage bar fell to the ground with a thud.

"Don't don't, Lena, you're the strongest, help me move out......"

Inside the Hindenburg, the two admirals and the president of the Academy of Sciences are interrogating Nyx about Obsidian.

"In this way, there is a magical barrier in the sky above each planet in Davion, but it is not set by us, but it exists naturally. This barrier has a tremendous condensation effect on high-speed ships, causing them to drop their speed dramatically and increase their temperature suddenly. ”

"So powerful?" Christina translated these words to the two generals, and Lena hadn't enchanted them yet.

"Don't be fooled by what he says about magical enchantments." Zhang Chuanlan said helplessly, "What he said was just the atmosphere." A spacecraft that reaches several times the speed of sound in the universe will of course encounter great resistance when it flies into the atmosphere, and the sound barrier is just that. The surface of the Davian spacecraft has not undergone much treatment, and the frictional heat with the air is very high, which causes the temperature to rise. ”

"............" Christina was a little speechless, "Nyx, your science is too backward!" ”、

"I just saw that your ship was not affected by the barrier at all, so I thought that your mana was strong enough to stop the Obsidian King." Nyx said innocently, "Can your ship ignore this barrier?" ”

"Speaking of which, the sonic boom produced by the supersonic flight of the Commander Whirlwind was not even felt by the ground forces of Obsidian, it seems that the population of Obsidian is very sparse." Zhang Chuanlan was thoughtful.

"You're lucky, I looked at the samples brought back by the Hunter, and the composition of Obsidian's air is almost identical to Earth's, except for the abnormal levels of sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, which seem to be caused by multiple volcanic landforms. How many volcanoes are there to change the composition of the atmosphere...... "Christina felt a little incredible.

"It's nothing, their obsidian mage's magic also produces lava and volcanic gas, and that's what their planet looks like." Zhang Chuanlan said casually.

"Cut, I'd better hear what he says next, is there anything else I need to pay attention to, Nexus?"

"By the way, the artifact is in the Obsidian Palace, and it seems to be in the hands of the Prophet."

Christina had long expected that the artifact would be in Motriti's hands, and asked for something else, but she still couldn't get the point. She turned her head and discussed with Zhang Chuanlan, "Do you want to tell him the news that Histasa is still alive?" ”

Zhang Chuanlan shook his head: "It's better not to, in my eyes, his suspicion has not been lifted." By the way, you ask him what happened to the flames of the Commander Tornado's jumping module. ”

Christina knew that Zhang Chuanlan was still accurate in this regard, and she didn't argue, so she asked Zhang Chuanlan's question to Nyx.

Nexus replied, "That's our energy bomb, that kind of flame is just a high concentration of magic energy volatilized, and it doesn't hurt except that it heats up." It will naturally go out in a few days. ”

"Well, it seems that Davion's mages pose little of a threat to our ship. Your Commander Whirlwind is the most defense-strong of any small ship, and those two lava bolts didn't do any damage. However, other small ships are not as well insulated and may be slightly damaged. Histaza's spells also had no effect on the armor of medium and large ships. It seems that only the Davian warships can pose a threat to our warships. ”

"Looks like we got the plan right." Although Erich had not spoken, he had been listening carefully to their conversation, and did not drop a word, "Destroy Davion's fleet first, and then let the battleships enter the atmosphere for low-altitude fire support to attack Davion's ground forces." Once Davion's fleet is destroyed, it will be impossible for the other three kings to be against us. ”

"The problem now is that no one can get in touch with the Three Kings. We haven't been able to establish contact with them yet, and if the war starts, it's still the case with the four kings of Davion against the Combined Fleet. ”

"That's easy," Lena fell from the ceiling, needless to say that she had opened the portal from above, "and when Davion first came to the solar system, he told the kings that Histasar was still alive. ”

"They're going to be suspicious, and we're going to need to get in touch with them exactly." Zhang Chuanlan said affirmatively.

"Nyx is the best candidate, Lena, do you have any spells to keep him safe?"

"Yes, it's simple, Davion's magic is weaker than mine."

"Nyx, then this task will be handed over to you." Christina translated for Zhang Chuanlan.

"Okay, I'm going to obey my fate."

"By the way, Lena, you quickly add a magic to Chuan Lan and them." Christina is also looking for more victims.

"I've already added it, I've added it to all members of your fleet." Lena said nonchalantly.

"Huh? I haven't seen you poke them in the head. ”

"That's unnecessary, it's just fun hahahahaha."

"Ah...... It really hurts...... "Christina wanted to cry without tears.
