Chapter 687: The Great Crisis
During the survey team led by Moira Brown, Makarov and everyone else saw such a scene.
The fleet of the Ceph people, a full thirty-one jellyfish warships, is like a moon in the water in front of the Suche civilization, without the slightest ability to resist.
I don't know what the Suche civilization did, or if they didn't do anything, anyway, Makarov and the others saw that the spherical ships didn't move at all, and they were moving like planets.
However, the Ceph fleet reacted quickly, as if it had been terrified, and began to turn as if it was about to evacuate.
Ceph ships flew much faster than human ships, and they fled light-years away in an instant.
And strange things also happened in this process, and the ten battleships began to disappear the moment they left.
Just like the evaporation that Colonel Maris had seen before, these warships disappeared into the universe out of thin air.
Without any energy fluctuations, the Ceph fleet lost a third in an instant. While there is no indication that the Suche civilization was responsible, it is clear to everyone that they must have done it.
The giant jellyfish battleship of the Ceph people can be said to be comparable to the heavy assault ships of humans, but the attack ability is slightly inferior. And it was such a warship, in the face of that mysterious silicon-based civilization, it couldn't hold even a single face, and it was annihilated.
This is the huge chasm caused by the difference in dimensions, even if the difference is half a dimension, the Suche civilization can easily kill the Ceph civilization, even Ceph has the advantage of cold energy.
"Oh my God, what did I see!" Menendez stood up from his chair in surprise, "It's terrifying, even this kind of battleship can be dissolved in an instant, this kind of technology is not something that can be achieved by human beings with current technology." ”
"Of course, that's a whole level ahead of humanity." Khan said with a serious face, "Heavy assault ships can also destroy this kind of battleship with their main guns, but they can't do it like this quietly, there are hardly any energy fluctuations, and a heavy assault ship can only kill one in an instant, and it is impossible to kill so many at once." ”
"They...... Sure enough, it's not an ordinary alien race. Yuri couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat as he watched the screen still orbiting the star, and what looked like a planet-like orb battleship. If it weren't for Makarov just telling them, they wouldn't have believed that this thing, which looked like a planet, was still a warship, "We have to be careful." ”
"Can you deduce what method they used to do it based on the current data and survey content?" Makarov asked, turning his head to look at Moira and Freeman, as well as scientists like Nathan Goode.
"Nope." Freeman, who was silent, spoke again, "Actually, there was no change in the data just now. ”
"Really nothing has changed, any?!" Makarov's eyes widened and he asked, his different-colored pupils staring at the person, making people feel angry.
If it had been in the past, Makarov would definitely not have done this, and he did lose his cool a little.
"It's true." And beside him, the tearful Moira Brown looked like an exaggerated cry, which gave Makarov a little headache, but her tone carried a hint of weakness and a hint of fear, "We ...... Powerless against this civilization. ”
A moment of silence ensued.
The high-level people present were all very smart, and they all more or less thought about whether this silicon-based civilization would have something to do with the four dimensions.
For this "four-dimensional creature", famous human scientists have speculated many times, and there are also various different voices. But in the end, there is one conclusion that always agrees, and that is, don't mess with the four-dimensional beings. Don't mess with, don't mess with, don't mess with.
This is the difference in dimensions, three-dimensional organisms in front of four-dimensional organisms, really like bacteria, not only the life cycle is too short, but also easy to kill. And the difference in dimensions is not something that can be overcome by fighting bravely and ordinary resourcefulness and technology, it is a moth to a fire.
Thinking of this, even Makarov, who has always been calm, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
However, the current "four-dimensional race" has already launched an attack on the human race, and just now they still prefer to go over and provoke them again, and they have resolutely and decisively fought back against the Ceph people who came to attack.
The more Makarov thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt a cold sweat on his forehead.
I didn't think that this was a four-dimensional creature before, because this race had lost both sides with Ceph, but now it seems that it should be a fake report and survey made by the bastard in charge of the Central Alliance military who doesn't know which one should be shot, in order to submit the task in time!
Makarov's news was obtained from Zhang Zhaozhong and Sheffield, that is, the two high-level leaders of Zoomlion were also deceived by this news.
This fake news can be said to have deceived everyone, and it is not known who did it. Makarov hated this man so much that he gritted his teeth, and he wanted to catch this person, let him go and forcibly mate with the controlled female alien, and then watch the little alien in his pregnant body break out of the "shell" and eat him.
Now that I think about it, they flew so close in the first place, and the silicon-based civilization didn't react, probably because they were not interested in an ant flying in front of them.
But there is also a greater possibility, that is, to lock the ant's travel path and the coordinates of the speed of light, follow these "ants", find the nest, and then destroy the nest in a playful and very careless form.
"Jump away now!" Makarov gasped slightly, and shouted to everyone, "Turn on the light-speed jump, and all fleets will move at the speed of light." Notify everyone now! ”
As he spoke, he grabbed the hand of the pilot next to him, and immediately adjusted the battleship out of jump mode.
"The jump is expected in two minutes." The icy sound of an electronic elevation was heard, but everyone felt an uneasy fire burning within.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked nervously at Makarov, not paying attention to what was being shown on the screen. The remaining dozen or so Ceph warships, which showed that they had successfully made the leap and escaped for nearly a hundred light-years, had also begun to separate and disintegrate at this time.
However, unlike the instantaneous evaporation just now, they have a cracking process, but this cracking process is also very fast.
Each of the fleeing Ceph warships looked like a photograph, cracking in the middle and towards the surroundings, and then the shattered photograph began to dissolve into dust and disappear into the universe.
Like the previous DRG weapon, only more dangerous and terrifying.
"What's going on, Makarov." Moira Brown gently tugged at his arm and said cautiously.
"Get out of this place immediately, we need to evacuate." Makarov roughly expressed the inference that he and the others had just done their deaths, and everyone present could not help but change their hearts.
"But it's a long way off, and we should ...... It'll be safe. When the relevant correspondent had immediately communicated with the rest of the fleet, someone said cautiously, with a hint of luck and uneasiness in his tone.
But then, when his eyes skimmed to the surveyor screen in front of him, he couldn't help but scream, "Oh my God, more than a hundred light years!" More than a hundred light years, Ceph's battleship was destroyed! ”
……
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
"Get out of here quickly, jump to the farthest place at the speed of light so they can't hit ......" Menendez urged all the ships to leave with a trembling tone, and watched as all the ships in the fleet jumped away at the speed of light.
The efficiency of the fleet was so high that in just a minute and sixteen seconds, all the battleships left except them.
"Send this message to Zoomlion, silicon-based civilization is all the information of four-dimensional creatures!" Makarov said to his men, "and immediately inform all mankind to use all possible means to transfer or hide." ”
"Yes!"
"Why two minutes, Makarov, now is not the time to break back." Menendez looked at the light-speed leap that had not yet begun, and said hurriedly, "What else do you want to do, now that everyone is gone, we have to get out of here!" ”
"No, this planet is important." However, Makarov turned his head and looked at the main star of the United States, and Makarov said indifferently, "We have to protect it and find a way to get it away." ”
"You are crazy, Makarov, why are you wasting time and risking your life for these Yankees!" Artyom gasped and looked at the image of the surveyor, the Ceph warships had all been destroyed, while the spherical battleships of the silicon-based civilization in situ were still "turning" as if nothing happened, "Don't care about the life or death of these Yankees, let's evacuate immediately." ”
At this point, he suddenly saw Gordon Freeman's expressionless face and suddenly felt a choke.
Gordon Freeman, though an American, didn't really have much sense of belonging, shook his head coldly and motioned not to mind, and said a second time, "He's not for those Americans." ”
"What's that for!" Menendez watched as there were only twenty seconds left in the countdown to the light-speed jump, but he also breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's a very important device on the main star of the United States." Makarov explained, but his tone calmed down again, "This device was developed by this group of Americans to prevent the invasion of Zoomlion...... I don't know what went crazy, but the United States actually transformed the entire main star into a large shielding device, which can block all information within a radius of hundreds of light years. In this way, even if other civilizations snooped on it, it would reveal that it was an ultra-low-density hollow.
This is a very important device, and it seems to contain a variety of high-level alien technologies that the United States has been exposed to over the years. But we don't have time to completely remove the shield along the center of this planet, we can only protect it. ”
"How are you going to protect it?" Yuri frowned and asked, "If your guess is correct, this place should have been completely locked by the four-dimensional civilization, and it is destined to be annihilated by a blow." ”
"No, fortunately, this shielding device was turned on before, and now, it may not have been discovered by this silicon-based civilization. They may think that this may be a hollow rather than an anthill. ”
"But it's a four-dimensional civilization, how can we be sure that they must not have been discovered."
"Make sure of it!" Faced with Khan's question, Makarov indifferently pressed the button in front of him to quickly open the jump, so the light flashed, and the jump was made a few seconds earlier.
"What do you mean?" Menendez didn't react, and the rest of the people around him also said, "Didn't we jump and escape, how can we make sure of it." ”
At this time, he noticed that Nathan Goode beside him, a scientist who had studied hard in his impression but seemed to be a little timid, was looking at the screen in front of him with a white face, his hands trembling and pointing to a place, his eyes hollow.
Follow his finger and look at it, and it shows a coordinate.
And from the staff just now, Menendez clearly knows that this coordinate is where the five planetary warships of the silicon-based civilization are located!
"Are you crazy, Makarov!" Menendez stared at the screen in disbelief, and by this time, the continuous wormhole jumps had come to an end. In other words, in the next second, they are likely to come to the territory of silicon-based civilization again.
"I'm not crazy." Makarov smiled indifferently at this time, looked at Moira, who was panicked and worried, and then looked at everyone, "The best way to ensure that the silicon-based civilization does not lock in the United States is for us to be another ant and regain their attention."
Two minutes ago, I had already ordered someone to adjust the shielding equipment to its maximum power, and this shielding is a supergravitational shielding that completely simulates a black hole, that is, silicon-based civilizations will sense that it is a black hole, and most of them will not go to it even if they are four-dimensional civilizations. At this point, let's distract them......"
"Crazy, what a madman." Almost everyone, including Yuri and Artem, was shocked by Makarov's plan.
That's right, Makarov is a madman, and in order to achieve his goal, he can save the Yankees he hates the most; To achieve his goal, he can even protect the main star of the United States; In order to achieve his goal, he can risk his own life to do such crazy things.
"I'm not crazy, I'm very clear now, and I just lost the time to cool down, and it's only less than twenty seconds." Makarov replied very coldly, "Don't be discouraged, even so, the chances of our survival are still very good!" ”
As soon as his words fell, the entire battleship had already completed its leap and came to the light and moon away from the Xuche civilization. (To be continued.) )
