The Schillian Cluster, with four ships moored near the Mass Effect repeater. The aviation obstruction lights around the battleship flickered on and off, roughly outlining the outlines of the four huge battleships.

This is the "Schillian Star Field Task Fleet" headed by the "Hangzhou" and "Shanghai", two new-type cruisers "Hangzhou" and "Shanghai", which belong to the Second Fleet of the Star Alliance, and two old cruisers "Budapest" and "Istanbul", which are responsible for the colony and channel cruising missions of the four nearby galaxies.

Compared with the old one, the new cruiser of Starlink has changed to a considerable extent in appearance.

The technology of the old cruisers came from the Turks, and the shape of the battleship also inherited the falcon-type structure of the Turks. However, although the new cruiser designed by Mu Xing's hand is slightly shorter than the old battleship by dozens of meters in length, it is far beyond the thickness of the hull, and completely abandons the shape of the battleship in the state of a fighter. The new cruiser as a whole looks ...... It was more like a cylinder that had been cut diagonally, which greatly increased the volume and armor thickness of the entire battleship.

The most prominent part of the battleship's iconic front is the Mass Effect main gun running through the axis, followed by the side-by-side quadruple melee turrets, and then above the twin split torpedo launchers.

The livery of the new cruiser is still in the traditional colors of Starlink, Iron Gray and Navy Blue. But among the four ships moored next to the Mass Effect repeater, there was a new type of battleship, all painted as flaming red! From the side of the battleship, you can see the metallic Star Link logo, and the huge three big characters - "Hangzhou".

At present, the detachment is suddenly disabled due to the main stage repeater. Temporarily trapped the fleet on the edge of the Schillion Cluster.

"The request was denied." "The request was denied." "The request was denied." ……

A long list of repeater rejection messages scrolled up the screen, leaving the navigator operating in front of the console sweating.

He was faced with an unprecedented situation, no matter how many teleport requests the ship sent to the Mass Effect repeater. Regardless of the destination of the teleportation, the only answer the navigator received from the repeater was a cold one - "request denied"! It's as if all the paired repeaters with the Skirian repeater are turned off...... But how is that possible?! Looking at the huge and friendless galaxy repeater outside the porthole, and the screen full of rejection messages in front of him, the navigator wiped his sweat in despair and shouted again to the busy maintenance staff, "Please check the jump equipment again!" Check again! ”

"I tried my best...... But I swear everything is fine with the jump procedure for the Hangzhou! ”

Maintenance personnel who inspect equipment over and over again are equally exhausted. They were pretty sure that the ship's equipment was fine—but they were apparently more willing to believe than a Mass Effect repeater that had been running normally and untroubled for tens of thousands of years—that the jump request had failed. The problem is with the new factory battleship. But the same is true of the old battleships......

Li Huamei paced on the bridge without hurry, occasionally bowing her head to listen to their reports, her expression was as calm as ever. She just used her actions to calm the impatience of these people a little. Didn't interfere with their work. Because Li Huamei clearly knew what was going on in her heart, she had been waiting for this moment for ten years! Since the "Prague" was decommissioned, Li Huamei's ship was replaced with the latest cruiser "Hangzhou", which made her like a tiger with wings.

Saren captures the Citadel. and shut down all the primary-level repeaters in the galaxy. Now isolated from the Citadel space station, the Citadel Guardian Fleet should be in danger of being annihilated.

If the normal process develops, Shepard, who is chasing after Salen, will just arrive at the control room of the Citadel. She first used her mouth cannon to get Salen, then manipulated the console to open all the main-level repeaters, and then Admiral Hackett led the Fifth Fleet of the Star Alliance to the aid of the Citadel, and finally saved the Citadel Guardian Fleet - and by the way, saved the Citadel Council that had escaped to the Destiny Transcendent.

But now the problem is that the strength of the Black Geth has been greatly strengthened by someone - on the side of Salen, the number of Geth infantry platforms has doubled. With the number of geth warships tripled, would the Citadel Frigate still be able to carry it until the time when the Fifth Fleet came?

“…… The main engine is offline... Shield Reduced by 40%... Parliament... It's on board... We... Rescue is urgently needed... Port side shot......"

The porthole in front of Lu Yuan was divided into two areas. On one side, it is used to show the battlefield situation of the spear field, and on the other side, it shows the ...... It's the Citadel battlefield millions of light-years away. Because on the battlefield, the contrast in strength between the two sides is even more disparity. At this moment, the battlefield of the Citadel was littered with the wreckage of the destroyed parliamentary warships, and the light of the explosions came and went.

The focus of the Citadel battlefield is on the largest ship in the convoy, the Destiny Transcendental. What Lu Yuan heard at this moment was the distress signal sent by the Heavenly Destiny Transcendent channel that was being monitored.

The Citadel Frigate, with less than forty ships, shrunk into a spherical shape outside the space station with the Destiny Transcendent as the core, was surrounded by nearly 5,000 geth warships (most of the geth were auxiliary ships and small warships). Under the concentrated fire of the geth battleship's purple beam cannons, the convoy was torn apart layer by layer as if it had been peeled an onion, and even the Destiny Transcendent, carrying the councillor of the Citadel, was directly leaked under the guns of the geth fleet!

The flagship, which carried the members of the council, had clearly become the main target! She had turned off the main guns, even the main engines, and transferred all the energy to the battleship's shield. And the surrounding Citadel battleships are blocking with shields, trying to protect the flagship with their bodies. Even so, the shield of the Destiny Transcendent continued to weaken at a speed visible to the naked eye......

Presumably, those councillors of the Citadel must be extremely regretful now that they left their butts in the chair in the council! The world outside the castle is a hundred times more ferocious from the inside!

The Destiny Transcendent, known as the most powerful in the entire galaxy, is now beaten without temper. Her massive body had lost all its intimidating power, and now resembled a clumsy elephant. Turning in circles in vain, he is completely passively beaten.

From here, you can see the fatal flaw of the Azarine power engine series of battleships.

Internal power engine. It is to use the ship's Mass Effect Core to create a mass effect field difference and a gravitational well to drive the ship to fly without a heat engine. The internal power engine completely frees itself from the dependence on hot fuel, which is originally a very cutting-edge cutting-edge technology. There is no other civilized race in the galaxy that can master it except for the Asari, and the Asari are proud enough. However, there are advantages and disadvantages, and warships designed with the Mass Effect Core as the center are bound to be constrained by the limits of the Mass Effect Core itself.

When the battleship's Mass Effect main gun, the ship's main source of protection, the kinetic barrier, and the ship's engines all rely on this core. How to allocate core resources has become the biggest problem. In the past, the Destiny Transcendent was used as a flagship, and it attacked under the heavy protection of many warships, of course, seeing who killed whom. Unparalleled in power and indestructible. But when she was beaten and had to fight alone, all the power of the core was converted into a protective kinetic energy barrier, and the main gun suddenly became an ornament......

"Hua Mei ......" saw that the Divine Citadel fleet was indeed unable to support it. Shepard's side was still silent. Lu Yuan dialed Li Huamei's universal tool. "It's your turn." After finishing speaking, Lu Yuan pressed the blue button on the virtual screen.

With Lu Yuan's command, the entire Dawn Mothership shook violently, and the hull began to emit a blue glow.

*****

"Try this."

The busy navigator looked at the universal tool stretched out in front of him in amazement, and then found that the speaker was actually Li Huamei, the captain of the ship.

"It's ...... Repeater coordinates? The navigator subconsciously asked, but Li Huamei's cold gaze after frowning slightly made the navigator wake up instantly. Somewhat flustered, he looked away from the captain's bright face and looked down at her multipurpose again. Then I found the string of numbers arranged on it. "This coordinate...... I've never seen it", he said. However, the men did not stop, quickly entering the coordinates into the ship's navigation system, and then sent a teleportation request to the Mass Effect repeater again.

"Request to receive." The response of the repeater was like heaven in his eyes! "Yay! We succeeded," shouted the navigator and jumped up, "ready to jump!" Damn, even if this coordinates lead to hell...... Let's get out of here first! ”

There was cheering from the battleship. The feeling that the repeater could not be opened before was as sad as the locked door of the apartment building where I lived.

"All the main-level repeaters have been shut down, and it's likely that something is wrong with the Citadel Space Station, and we're going to support them next! In view of the current state of emergency, I declare the combat readiness level 7! Decipher the 'table' plan now, you only have five minutes! Li Huamei retook command of the battleship and announced loudly.

The unprecedented combat readiness level of 7 surprised every crew member. However, good training still allowed them to quickly enter the state of war. All the close defense muzzles protruded from the hull, the inspectors quickly searched for unsecured objects, the driver began to adjust the engine power, the spare nodes of the shield were preheated, and each operator returned to his seat, and then fixed himself in his seat according to the state of war, and hurried to replenish a little food......

"Hangzhou" is the flagship of the detachment, and Li Huamei is the commander-in-chief of the four battleships! After receiving the order, all four battleships were operating in an orderly manner, and the battleship formation bared its fangs like monsters!

"Great, wonderful......" the navigator muttered happily, "wait." He was a little stunned, because he realized that he couldn't remember what the number he had just entered was, and there was no record in the navigator. I just ...... Did you enter anything? ”

No one listened to his own words, and everyone on the bridge was busy with Li Huamei's orders.

With the dismantling command, someone ran out of the back passageway, pushed the huge alloy table in front of the navigator and captain's seats, and removed the bends on both sides - "Wait! The navigator shouted again, looking at the table that had instantly become slimmer, and shouted in some surprise. Is this what that ugly table is?! ”

Well, that ugly and bloated table in front of them, disgusted by almost everyone on the battleship, was called the "most failed design" on the new cruiser...... In fact, it was only part of the "table" plan, a small measure taken by the Star Alliance to cover up the power of the main gun. But when Project Desk was officially launched, none of that mattered!

With twenty 5-kilogram alloy projectiles heated into liquid, which were then injected into the pipes surrounding the core of the battleship, a preliminary acceleration was carried out...... The liquid projectile that flew rapidly around the core gave the blue core a silvery white aura. Li Huamei knew its danger -- any of the 20 shells that had been preliminarily warmed up went out of orbit during the battleship's flight, leaving the entire battleship's passengers dead without a place to bury!

The four battleships were arranged in a diamond shape, and with the huge blue arc of light of the repeaters, they disappeared from the Skirian cluster in an instant. The navigator looked blankly at the console, a little at a loss...... Because according to the navigator now, their current position should be in a destroyed galaxy, and it is on the edge of the blue giant......

"Hehe~ How is this possible? Something must have gone wrong. "If he could see outside at this moment, he should be able to see a huge spaceship the size of the Citadel Space Station, hovering above their heads, blocking the deadly rays of the blue giant star for them!

But before he could finish his self-talk, the blue light once again enveloped the entire fleet! In the next moment, they disappeared from this unknown world......

"I think I saw the Reaper just now! Many, many reapers! "Although all portholes are closed during transmission, the driver is exceptional...... He was terrified by the endless fleet of Reapers, which appeared directly in front of the battleship when he was teleported! This guy is also a fan of the drama "History of the Planet" (a large proportion of the fans of this drama, navigation-related practitioners account for a large proportion), and he recognized the Reaper at a glance.

So the guy yelled in the channel, almost deafening the listeners' ears. "God! I swear ......"

"Shut up, Pete!" Li Huamei interrupted him in the channel, "Watch less TV series in the future (despise you)!" Now all of them are available, and the moment the teleportation ends, you can start shooting! 3、2、1…… Fire！ ”

After the teleportation ended, the four-ship formation of the "Schillion Star Task Force" appeared directly in the geth's battleship group! The distance to the nearest target is not even a hundred meters. The tsunami-like red dot of hostile targets instantly fills the screen in front of you! All the combatants almost subconsciously smashed their fists on the shooting button in front of them - cracked torpedoes, Type 3 laser beams, and Mass Effect main guns!

The crimson "Hangzhou" shone brightly at the moment it appeared, as if a phoenix was spreading its wings! (To be continued......)
