Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Anxiety of the Charging Process
"Is it going to be so long?" Zhou Xin frowned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info couldn't help but feel worried as he watched the attack on the Voyager on camera.
In the footage, it can be seen that the Voyager is now like a lamb and can only passively withstand attacks from the Norsans. Countless "missiles" were raining down on the Voyager, crashing into the ship's hull and exploding. Suddenly, almost the entire ship of the Voyager was covered in thick smoke. The violent explosion further damaged the hull of the ship, which was already in tatters and had only been cleaned up slightly. Along with countless pieces of metal that were scattering, new craters appeared on the hull.
After observing for a while, Zhou Xin found that if you look at it individually, the power of those "missiles" is not too great, and compared to the other types of attacks that the Voyager has experienced before, the power is much smaller. Even Zhou Xin saw that some pieces of armor that had been preserved from the previous pursuit of the spherical battleship were still intact after withstanding the repeated attacks of the "missiles", but this did not mean that the entire spaceship could be safe and sound. Because the still-intact decks of the Voyager cover very few, if not altogether, compared to the unrepaired hulls, these scarce intact decks do nothing to protect them.
To make matters worse, while the few intact plates were able to withstand the onslaught of the Noshan civilization, they were not completely indestructible. The problem comes from the fact that the heavily damaged armor around the adjacent pieces of armor is clearly not as strong as its intact "neighbors", and it only takes one or two attacks to completely peel off. This took a toll on the few intact decks, and after most of the surrounding decks had been detached, in the midst of them, the intact decks, which had lost most of their structural support, had to fall off the hull in a continuous explosion, smashing a rather large crater in the ground around the Voyager.
Look at the scattered debris in the frame, as well as the occasional large piece of debris that emerges from the smoke and falls heavily to the ground. Zhou Xin asked worriedly: "Atlas, judging from the current attack intensity of the other party, can the Voyager hold out until the moment of takeoff?" ”
"No problem." The little girl came up with the result after a few seconds, "The opponent's attack looks very dense, but it is not very powerful. Although the outermost deck is largely defenseless due to the fact that it has not been repaired, we can rely on the outer area of the ship as a buffer for attacks. Until we can act, an attack by the opposing side will not cause substantial damage to the overall structure of the Voyager. At most, the outer area of the ship will be severely damaged, and it will take more time to repair. ”
As soon as Atlas's words fell, the Norzans on the other side seemed to notice this at the same time. Without warning, in just a few seconds, the opponent's attack firepower increased by nearly half. Of course, the main reason for this was that the closer reinforcements that were being assembled towards the Voyager were now in the attack position. Then, in the following period, as more and more reinforcements were added, the intensity of the opponent's attack also increased.
"The main engine is 70 percent charged, and there are still 150 seconds left before it is fully charged." At this time, the Voyager suddenly made a loud report.
As soon as the Voyager's words fell, Atlas reminded in a worried tone: "Brother Captain, if the other party's attacks continue to increase uncontrollably as they do now, the damage to the spacecraft in the future may not be as optimistic as they said before." ”
"Also." After the little girl finished speaking, Spred added, "It's okay for other places to be attacked, but I'm more worried about whether the main engine that is being charged will be affected by such a fierce attack." After all, our ship can't move now, and there's no way to help the engine evade any attacks aimed at it. Even, what if the other side discovers that we need to rely on the main engine to escape, and then concentrate on attacking it. ”
"Under this kind of attack, the repaired main engine armor can still hold up. The most dangerous thing is the location of the vent, but the engineering robots have been temporarily equipped with a movable protective deck there, and the additional armor will be thrown away the moment before the engine starts. However, if the opponent's attacks continue to intensify, it is difficult to say whether this simple defense will be effective. Atlas replied.
While listening to the conversation in the command cabin, Zhou Xin observed the current situation, and at the same time, his mind was still thinking. After thinking about it, he tried to contact Fergeland again, trying to delay a little. But unfortunately, the other party did not pay any attention to Zhou Xin's request for contact, and the fierce attack continued.
"Send out all the combat robots." After the contact was fruitless, Zhou Xin had no choice but to say another method he had just come up with, "Although I'm afraid it won't have much effect, it's good to be able to deflect some of the other party's attacks a little." ”
With Zhou Xin's order, a large number of combat robots soon appeared around the Voyager. But compared to the other side, the number of combat robots is still too small. As Zhou Xin expected, they really only served the purpose of dispersing the attack. Under the fierce attack of the opponent, the battle robot only lasted for more than a minute before there was very little left, and not even any robot could get close to the opponent.
After the last battle robot was wiped out by the fire, the surrounding weapons and equipment were redirected at the Voyager. The rainstorm re-flooded the Voyager.
"Sixty seconds left until the charge is complete." A minute before takeoff, Zhou Xin couldn't think of any way to defend against the opponent's attack. Now, everyone in the command module, including Zhou Xin, could only watch as the Voyager passively endured the onslaught from the Norsan. Even the various monitoring equipment temporarily installed on the outside of the spacecraft during the repair has already been completely destroyed in the intensive attack of the other party, and now they can only rely on the detectors staying in the air to observe the situation in the outside world. But from this perspective, they could only vaguely make out the silhouette of the Voyager in the light of the fire and smoke from the dense explosion.
"Thirty seconds to go......"
