Chapter 148: Mutation

Pan Wen, who was directing the Golden to fight against the space bug mothers, didn't know what these bugs were for, but intuitively thought that the big thing was obviously more threatening, and in a situation where the swarm and humans were obviously hostile, it could not be a vehicle used to transmit the spores of the swarm.

"Captain, a very strong biological radiation signal has been detected, and it has entered the threat level!"

The voice of the radar communicator stunned everyone who heard it, only to realize that the situation was not good.

Battleships are the derivatives of war and the crystallization of the entire human technology, but they are not omnipotent, even the Golden Ship is no exception. For the sake of combat functions, frigates and above warships are not equipped with weak biological signal detectors, and search and rescue work is completed by sub-ships, which is not to save that little bit of ship-building costs, but in ultra-long-distance reconnaissance, each additional mode is a serious challenge to the reliability of the entire reconnaissance system, and in the war machine, the priority of reliability is obviously higher than the performance of equipment.

Because there is no weak biological signal detector, when the detection system detects biological radiant energy, it often indicates that the threat of the target is high enough, triggering the special detection mechanism developed in the melee between humans and insects.

In layman's terms, superpowers are a must, and the bioenergy level must be extremely high.

However, because the human-insect melee was a long time ago, the battleship has been developed for several generations, and it is difficult to judge the threat level for a while.

Pan Wen glanced around the panels on the captain's platform and confirmed that the strong biological radiation came from the big guy wrapped in small worms, not only the target area, but also the non-target area near the E7 horizon. Countless bugs are approaching over there, and it is impossible for the Golden Number to finish this wave and make a detour to destroy the others, but there is no need to change the battle order.

But for no reason (?!) The change of the bug should not be doing useless work, could it be that this thing can fire at that position to hit the gold number?

With this thought in his mind, Pan Wen immediately shook his head, this possibility is lower than the bug choosing to blow itself up, 600,000 kilometers, and it is not to throw stones at another street, where is it possible for the organism to evolve an attack method that can break through this distance and inflict a huge blow on the Golden One. Just the inconsistency of the thickness of the cell wall can determine that they cannot meet the requirements of accuracy, as for the non-high-energy directional attack method, the requirements for structural accuracy may be lower, but the ballistic speed must be greatly discounted, and it cannot really threaten the gold number with a considerable number of interceptor weapons.

In addition, denying that living organisms may have this level of attack accuracy actually involves the application of superpowers in the space environment, which is already a major matter related to the basic rules of the second world.

Why do players who retain the power system of the Last Era only play terrorist attacks on the resident planet, don't they want to do something big in space? It's not limited by the rules yet. According to the prompt when retrieving the time-limited ability of the last era in the small black house, in outer space, superpowers are not allowed to take effect through a vacuum environment, which means that no matter how powerful the big bug is, it can only function internally, such as enhancing power, correcting internal accuracy, increasing the frequency of re-attack, etc., and cannot use superpowers to make ballistic corrections after attacking.

Deputy Captain Nadezhda completed the status of the hangar, logistics and other mission areas, and seeing Pan Wen frowning, he gave advice in a separate call channel:

"BOSS, do you want to drop some cameras out?"

The camera she said is a kind of thing similar to the reconnaissance array, the difference is that the reconnaissance method of the reconnaissance array is to check the waveform in a passive or active way, which is a conventional radar type, and the camera reconnaissance module is simply to shoot and transmit images, including optical images, thermal images and so on. Like the Scout Array, it also has a data relay function that transmits data back from great distances through relay races.

The camera reconnaissance module is a consumable like the reconnaissance array, and the cost is very low, cheap, eight cameras, and its accuracy is predictably bad. However, while accuracy is not enough, the low-cost disposable use allows them to see enemies more closely.

Hearing Nadezhda's opinion, Pan Wen thought for a while and shook his head: "Just standby." ”

Whether it is a reconnaissance array or a camera reconnaissance module, in order to reduce costs, most models do not have their own power source, and the Hawkeye reconnaissance ship on the Gold is also like this, throwing away the speed of the reconnaissance ship itself or using the fighter to accelerate and release. The counterattack force of the insect swarm is approaching, even if it is delivered by fighter plane, in the environment of Haimer Star, which has a lot of particles, it may be too late, and Pan Wen does not want to rush too much.

The bugs were still very polite and didn't worry everyone for too long, and in one of the attacks after several attacks by the Super Cannon, the other side showed the results.

The pillar of light passed through the space and hit the surface of the ball for repositioning, but the result was completely different from before - the ball was surrounded by high-energy spots that only the shield system would produce!

"Boss, they're shielding!" The main gunner, Aloan, is sensitive to fire control, and the Super Cannon's beam of light senses something is wrong with a second left.

Shield!!

A few seconds later, the radar correspondent also confirmed Eloan's claim: "Defensive flare found." ”

By the way, there are two kinds of human shields, stand shield and energy shield, which are commonly used on conventional warships, compared to the stand shield, the energy shield has a higher unit energy consumption, and the protection is slightly weaker, but it has comprehensive energy defense, which can resist almost all particle wave types, photonic electron neutrinos or something. The Energy Shield has the ability to defend itself in a hybrid mode of neutralization, interference, and hedging, causing it to produce a lot of instantaneous particles when attacked by high energy, that is, it emits light. The color of the spot varies depending on the particle being injected, and because it is not a directional energy, it is easy to observe from a distance.

The fact that the radar communicator was so quick to confirm the defensive flare showed that the bug's shield and energy shield work similarly, otherwise it would have taken a little time to screen the changes under the high-energy impact.

"Eloan, do a burst and see how strong it is."

Suddenly this situation appeared, thinking that it was impossible to destroy the remaining seventeen targets before the counterattack swarm contacted, Pan Wen decisively changed the combat order.

Previously, due to the various problems of aiming at the big worms inside the insect ball from a long distance, the firing frequency was not high, and the overall cooling system only operated at a low level, so as soon as the command was changed, Eloan only did a short recalibration and fired again.

I don't know if it was because of the lack of preparation time or the position where it was hit was too good, but the second shot had a breakdown effect near the end!

"Did you miss?" Seeing the time-lapse attack imaging demonstration, Nadezhda opened her mouth with some confusion.

No matter how accurate the shooting accuracy of the reconnaissance ultra-limited mecha is, the light intensity around Haimer Star is not very good, and the big bug is inside the insect ball, and it may change the structure at some point, Nadezhda's worry is not unreasonable.

Pan Wen was also a little stunned, but he immediately asked to change the next target: "Change the target, the second, third, and fourth main guns will attack with the first gun position." ”

If it is a human frigate, even if it is a light cruiser, it is broken through under the attack of a super cannon with an increase of more than 100%, Pan Wen will not be surprised at all, the second cannon just now is a second attack on the same target, and the target is still in orbit determination, just counting the data, the full attack this time will exceed 12,000 points, not to mention that the interval in the middle should not be full of shields. He would be stunned by Nadezhda's words, mainly because he didn't know how to deal with the bugs, and he didn't know how these things worked, so he simply let the whole cannon work together, no matter what kind of shield it is, there is no reason to be able to withstand it if they fight together.

The Super Attack mode can output close to 40,000 standard damage in one round, and there are four main guns in the three gun positions of 234, and it can fire twice during the continuous attack period of the Super Cannon, and the strength of the concentrated attack is almost equal to that of a fleet of concentrated fire. There is also an advantage to the concentration of fire on a single target, because the four gun emplacements, including the super cannon, are all on the same ship of the Gold, and when the fire is concentrated, it can be used in a way that is difficult to coordinate in normal times - fire alignment.

The accuracy of the full-size gun is indeed high, but the length of more than 100 meters is still a bit insufficient at a distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and the directional high-energy beams/particles are different, and the accuracy corrected by using them as a reference frame can almost be used to aim at the bicycle at this distance, and the requirement is only that the main gun fires one second slower.

Of course, you can use this aiming method, but also thanks to the insect ball in a fixed orbit state, from the previous attack they have evasion action, but I don't know because of the limitations of the organism itself or too many insects are not good to coordinate, in short, they can almost ignore the evasion ability, so they can be used as a fixed target to attack.

The next target, the Super Cannon attacked once and the Two, Three, and Four Gun Positions assisted, but it did not produce a breakdown effect, and the Golden Number had no good means to confirm the situation inside the Worm Ball, so he had to continue to attack, but finally broke through the entire Worm Ball in the second stage of the Super Cannon Shot.

After taking out four targets in a row, the situation changed again, and the subsequent targets were not penetrated until the third stage of the Super Cannon, and all three in a row.

Their shields are still growing!

The corners of Pan Wen's eyes twitched, swept over the battle map, and suddenly ordered: "Stop the attack, turn to retreat, keep the interceptor cannon in a state of release, recall the overrun mecha group, and ask them to enter the escort queue." ”

The strength of the big bug may not have reached the level where it takes more than twenty seconds to gather fire, because the fire can't really concentrate the attack at one point, and the defense ability of the insect ball is relatively increased several times, but if you need to use the third stage of the super cannon to attack, the overall cooldown will take too long, which is equivalent to a minute to launch a round of attacks, even if you kill those two more, it is not enough in front of the remaining number of the entire E7.

In this case, Pan Van decided to focus on ensuring his own safety.

"We can't let the bugs get better, and throw all our mines out when we're done turning."
