Chapter 186: "The Blade of Doom".
Why did the Dawn shell the Blue Giant?!
If you reconstruct history, you will find that the decision-making process that took place on the Mothership Dawn that day, the truth is this-
If you want to promote another war between the navy and the Batarui Empire, while reasonably decommissioning the old warships, and also kicking these slave traders "back to the Stone Age", the first thing to consider is to prevent the Citadel Council from interfering. And the best way to stop the Citadel from meddling is neither to take out the bigwigs of the Citadel Council, nor to create a bigger incident to draw their attention.
It is enough to stop them, as long as the Council's orders cannot reach the Schillon Field.
Although Zhao Min and the "Phantom Man" have already figured out the technique, how to do it specifically - we still have to hire professionals.
"Cut off the communication between the Citadel and Schillian......" After hearing this question, Mu Xing casually called up a hologram and measured it with his fingers up and down, left and right. This star map covers all the known star fields of the Milky Way, and there is also a strangely shaped "net" on it, which is the network of buoys responsible for interstellar communication - this top-secret thing was copied by Mu Xing when he visited the headquarters of the Star Alliance Arcturus space station.
Mu Xing lowered her head and seemed to be looking at the map very seriously, but Zhao Min didn't see her big gurgling eyes.
"Sure enough!" Mu Xing clapped his hands and stood up straight. "If we want to cut off communication between the two, the way is with the blue giant star above our heads. As long as a large stellar storm erupts on a blue giant, the nearby network of buoys will be affected...... And between Citadel and Schillan, of course! β
"That's right," Zhao Min always felt that something was not quite right, and it seemed that ...... Going to make it big? She subconsciously wanted to refuse. "So how do you make a blue giant explode? Forget it, I always feel that this mention is unreliable, so I'll think about how to assassinate the parliamentarian......"
"No, no, no! That's just inhumane! Mu Xing rushed over and hugged Zhao Min's arm, "Look, as long as we shoot at the Blue Giant Star, no one will be harmed, and then the matter will be resolved!" Perfect. β
"Fire a shot!" Zhao Min was really taken aback this time! "Is that really going to work out? I think it's going to get really big, right? β
Zhao Min suddenly came to his senses - Mu Xing wanted to shoot at the moon in the Caribbean Sea in order to test that kind of giant cannon! As a result, Lu Yuan vetoed this unreliable JianyΓ¬, "We are all about to leave, even if we can't leave good memories, we can't smash the moon again, right?!" β
It seems that because of this, the moon in my hometown has been preserved intact......
"Hey! What are you supposed to be?! Mu Xing suddenly crossed his waist and became aggressive. That's a blue giant! Even if we fired a shot, it was like pricking the giant's toe with a needle, and the giant didn't feel any pain. (What if you replace the needle with the Lance of Longinus)
"Yes...... Is that so? Zhao Min was still a little hesitant, she didn't like to enter a field she didn't understand, "Do you want to ask Lu Yuan's opinion?" β
"Alright! You are the boss! Mu Xing pouted and complained dissatisfied. But Mu Xing still dialed Lu Yuan's communication in front of Zhao Min. In the blink of an eye, she became laughing again, and Zhao Min was a little daze - this is a deep split personality, right?!
"Ah Yuan, our main gun is about to be tested, but we haven't chosen a name yet, what do you call it?" Zhao Min rolled his eyes directly when he heard this, and the focus was "about to test" Okay!
Fortunately, the wise and martial Master Lu was not fooled by this little trick! "The main gun is about to be tested? What is the goal? Where do you want to shoot?! Lu Yuan is really as sensitive as Zhao Min.
"Nasty! People ask for names! Mu Xing released a coquettish method, "If you don't want to name the main gun, then I'll go find Nana!" β
"Don't, don't! Or I'll come! I got it! Lu Yuan was suddenly taken crooked-for a man who wanted to engrave his name on the "Avenger" assault rifle, the right to name the main gun of the Mothership Dawn was something that he couldn't let go of even if he died!
Lu Yuan's inspiration flashed, tangled, denied, and then flashed...... Stuck in the aforementioned loop...... Finally, even Mu Xing waited until the fire was big, and he waited for Ai Ai to say uncertainly, "Or, let's call it the Blade of Doom......" He remembered that when the Reaper's main cannon was fired, it really looked like wielding an extremely long sword with a burning blade.
Then, it seems appropriate to name it after the Excalibur in Heroes of Might and Magic 3 that unleashes the magic of "Doomsday Judgment" when it is wielded.
"What a bad name, it doesn't sound good at all!" Mu Xing was very angry and hung up the communication directly!
Zhao Min looked at Mu Xing in surprise, and saw Mu Xing snickering and making a "shhh" gesture, asking her not to speak yet. Then put up three fingers and bend them down one by one. 3, 2, 1...... "Dididi!" The communicator rang sharply. Mu Xing connected the communication with a little pride.
"Mu Xing, listen to me! The name of the Doomsday Blade, balabalbala......"
Zhao Min covered his head...... Lu Yuan, that stupid! He is now plunging headlong into the pit called "taking a name", completely forgetting about the "test target......
And then, that's how it happened.
*****
Against the background of the dark and empty universe, a bright azure blue fills the entire field of vision.
It seems that the target is too large, and in order to bring both subjects into the frame at the same time, even if the lens is shot upward, less than one-fifth of the blue giant star is captured. Stars occupy most of the picture, hanging oppressively above the picture. And the bright edge of the lower edge of the huge celestial body, the arc is only a slightly curved distance.
The Dawn Mothership, with a diameter of 130 kilometers, is soaring in the night sky below the blue giant at the moment, but it looks so small. Her original dark gold, illuminated by the light of the blue giant star, also mutated into a blue-black color mixed with metal. Compared with the huge size of the blue giant, the six-winged mothership, the rotors present a translucent glazed beauty, making the whole ship look like a little flower fairy with vibrating wings.
In order to ensure normal shooting, the amount of light ingested in the picture at this moment is only about 1/10 million of the actual amount. Therefore, the blue giant star, which should be extremely dazzling and always emits infinite light and heat, now looks much gentler. Its central part is a deep blue color, with a hazy blue glow at the edges, and it looks as if it is encased in an atmosphere - it looks a bit like Earth, the home planet of mankind.
Lu Yuan saw that the Mothership of Dawn adjusted its position and aimed the direction of the zenith at the blue giant, and her rotors stretched outward again, revealing the passage on the zenith that ran through the entire hull.
In the lower left corner of the screen, a count of the start time of the shelling begins, begins the 30-second countdown. β27οΌ26οΌ25οΌ24οΌ23β¦β¦β
As time goes by, the percentage in the lower right corner is growing rapidly. β2οΌ11οΌ27οΌ36οΌ44β¦β¦β
"What is this number?" , Lu Yuan stretched out his hand and touched the number lightly, and the other holographic screen opened - on the outer orbit of the mass effect core, countless orange-red streamers were flashing rapidly, and a ball of fire was like a ball of wool, densely wrapping the effect core!
If the projection is slowed down by a factor of 100,000 at this moment, you will be able to see an elongated metal solution, like an extremely long snake, circling the central sphere, dividing into countless layers up and down - intertwined but methodically, rotating around the huge core!
Below that, a striking figure is displayed: the initial mass of the projectile 14000 (kg), the current speed 54 speed of light.
Lu Yuan rubbed his eyes, 140,000 kilograms of projectiles?! The projectile of the dreadnought is only 20 kg, is it good!? You gave me a 7,000-fold boost in one go?! The first test shot was engaged in this kind of moth, what kind of trouble did they want! Even though the things recorded in this video had happened four days ago, Lu Yuan still felt a cool air rushing to the top of his head!
The countdown to "14, 13, 12 ......" is getting closer and closer, and the speed of the projectile does not increase after it increases to the speed of 95 light...... But Lu Yuan's cold sweat came out faster than just now! His lips are trembling now, and he just wants to catch those dead girls out and spank them hard!
There is no other reason, because although the speed of the projectile no longer increases, the mass of the projectile begins to jump in an order of magnitude, and in a few moments it exceeds the weight of a dreadnought (50 million tons +)! Your sister! I said why didn't the speed increase, because they were constantly reducing the mass effect field on the projectile! Lu Yuan is already going crazy by Mu Xing and the others!
Reducing the mass effect field can further increase the exit speed of the projectile, everyone knows this! But no one does that for Mao?! It's very simple - for the sake of a small life! Your sister's effect field has decreased, the Chelenkov effect has increased, and a huge amount of radiant energy has accumulated on the projectile at the moment!
Are you afraid of hundreds of nuclear bombs that are about to explode on top of it?!
If there is even the slightest mistake in the ship...... There will be no Dawn in the world!
"Where is Mu Xing's dead girl hiding! Get out of here! I'm going to fuck her ass! Lu Yuan couldn't help but roar, and wanted to find trouble with Mu Xing without waiting for the video to end!
Zhao Min stuck his head in with a smile from outside the office, "Mu Xing, today the first heavy patrol ship of the Star Alliance was launched, and she was invited to participate in the celebration ceremony!" And Mu Xing asked me to tell you that after the celebration, she will join the actual combat test team with the ship, and then she will participate in the research program of the new generation of frigates of the Star Federation and Turui - in short, she does not plan to come back in half a year! β
Master Lu was dumbfounded. Zhao Min looked at Lu Yuan's current appearance and asked a little strangely.
"I said Lao Lu, why are you kneeling to watch the video?"
