Chapter 312: A Sword Light Cold

"Roar!"

On all decks of the Dawn, countless holographic screens were playing the scene of the "Overlord-class" Reaper battleship being cut in two! When the mothership landed, it was jubilant! The Misaka girls high-fived each other, the greenskins beat their chests and yelled, the humans hugged each other, and even the geth synthesizers were learning from the people around them, jumping a few times comically.

When the 24,000 geth warships appeared before, densely spreading the sky, not to mention the ordinary crew, even the members and quasi-members of the Dawn Regiment were shocked by the huge number of geths! If they don't understand how terrible the geth are, perhaps the ignorant will be fearless. But all the crew members who remain on the Dawn are all under the leadership of a certain commander and have participated in long-term simulation training. After each training, the huge casualties made the crew even more impressed by the strength of the Reaper.

At this time, he suddenly saw the scale of the geth fleet, which was far beyond the prediction, and it was inevitable that he would be hit psychologically. But this magical shot instantly turned the morale around.

In general, in the era of cold weapons, commanders focused on the morale of the army and the quality of soldiers. In modern warfare, training and equipment began to occupy an increasing proportion, morale was usually not high, and as for the quality of individual soldiers, even hypochondria like Joker could go to war.

But Lu Yuan always believed that morale and confidence were above all else. The X-factor, which even Lady Dawn's simulator can't simulate, may be able to change the course of the entire battle.

As for the over-range strike becoming a conventional means...... That's unrealistic, Lu Yuan is just using this "making the impossible possible" to motivate the crew. First of all. The spatial distortion during firing is visible to the naked eye and can be easily detected, and the first success only takes advantage of the surprise; Secondly. This time, Yakumo Purple launched the dimensional gate, which consumed a small block of magic power storage in the magic tower, and the cost was too high.

Lu Yuan and Yakumo Zi actually expected to destroy the oldest pioneer battleship of the other party this time! Because the guy was clearly the commander of this battle. It's a pity that the pioneer is so cunning that he always hides himself, and never appears again except when he is captured in the corner of a photograph.

"Annie. I appoint you commander-in-chief of the armed forces, and commander of the Lightning Strike Fleet. When the cheers subsided, Lu Yuan's words. Again there was even greater cheering. On the Dawn side, the total number of personnel is 4 million humans (dormant), 2 million geth synths (each carrying 100VI programs), and 400,000 Orcs greenskins. Misaka sister 12,000 people. In addition, there are 120 six-armed snake demons and 1 reaper......

But that's only the maximum number of creatures that can be activated at the same time. In fact, because the Dawn's prosthetic manufacturing line is non-stop for a moment, and the magic tower does not destroy the souls of the crew, the amount of manpower available can be said to be endless, which is most suitable for fighting a long war of attrition.

This time, it was Anne who came to the center of the screen. Her image of a red-haired Valkyrie has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in these years. is even more loved by everyone than Lao Lu. So Anne just whistled loudly, and then announced loudly. "Guys, what are you waiting for, take your place, this is not a drill!"

……

Whether it's human soldiers or greenskinned orcs, geth synths or Misaka sisters, they all line up in a phalanx, shouting "shocking" military songs, running through the deck of the 34th floor, and then stepping onto the fast passage inside to run their own ways!

Anne, dressed only in standard armor and without a helmet, stood on the edge of the 33rd floor with her hands behind her back and her legs apart, silently watching rows of warriors run past her. At this moment, her image appeared in every corner of the Dawn, igniting the flames in the hearts of all the crew.

The whole process lasted almost two hours, and nearly 2 million soldiers roared through the 34th floor with a military song, and then they entered the battleship, entered the console, entered the mech, and were ready to go!

"Anne !!?" After all the crew members passed, Lu Yuan couldn't help but roar with bruises on his forehead! "You should also choose a more reliable military song, the original knight's proverb is obviously very good! …… I think the March of the Volunteers is also good, aren't you a pit for everyone to sing this~"

This is simply an unbearable weight in life - Lu Yuan especially when he watched a group of Misaka girls running through the 34th floor with expressionless faces and singing "Ho Chi Minh or something", Lu Yuan felt that his entire worldview was about to collapse......

"The age of knighthood has declined, and I need to keep up with the times." Anne said lightly.

Then she opened the hand that had been behind her back, revealing the small ball of light that she had been holding. The ball of light exploded like a singularity the moment she spread her palm! Endless light spread out from her palm, piercing the deck of the ship, piercing the outer walls of the battleship, penetrating the armor of the mech...... Connect to every soldier who has been reviewed!

All of them. Whether it is an organism or not, it has received the group reinforcement of Anne's aura at this moment! This is Annie's unmatched talent along the way - blessing the legion-level buff.

Maybe in the fleet command. Li Huamei can stand out from the crowd; In terms of personal force, Lu Yuan can ride a thousand. But when it comes to the command of the Grand Army, Anne will always be the most suitable one for the Dawn Regiment.

The aura that can bless the entire legion is actually not an uncommon ability, and many people have had it before, such as Annie's teacher Artoria. Because even ordinary people have both physical and spiritual powers in their bodies. It's just that physical strength can be transformed into combat effectiveness through training. But there seems to be no better way to use spiritual power than to make the soldier's will stronger. Historically. Only certain generals who have led the same army for a long time and achieved successive victories can enter this field by chance.

The principle of the Legion Aura is to use special methods and abilities. to activate the psychic power of ordinary soldiers.

And Anne's talent is. She can easily resonate with the ordinary soldiers under her command, and then she can mobilize and activate this part of the soldier's spiritual power! In the past, "kneeling down on one knee to hold the sword in prayer" and "reciting the knight's proverbs" were all means to guide the soldiers to empathize, but they were not necessary. The last time, before the battle with the Sand Devils, Anne used the Knight's Motto once, but it didn't work well. It only increases the survival rate of ordinary soldiers.

Later, when Anne continued to analyze her ability, she finally realized that the reason for her failure was very simple - because the era of knighthood had long passed. No one follows the knight's creed anymore. Even in the case of knightly proverbs, the person who recites them can only understand the superficial meaning of these words at best, and know nothing about the deep chivalry of self-love, fraternity, sacrifice, protection, etc.!

Even the spirit of the knight cannot be understood, and certainly the power of the knight cannot be aroused! Therefore, Anne tried a lot of songs to no avail, and finally simply changed the knight's motto to a colored soldier training song, and the effect was actually quite good!

Hearing this reason, Lu Yuan was speechless -- this was actually the people's choice -- what about the high quality of the 26th century? ! He could only complain helplessly, "It turns out that my crew is a bunch of rough goods!" ”

*****

After being taught a head-on lesson, the reaper's large fleet shrank slightly, and then spread out towards the wings in several groups! Deliberately widening the distance between the ships and avoiding a significant linear relationship (since the main gun of the Dawn is the same as the main gun of the Reaper, which is a linear cut), is obviously to prevent excessive losses under the fire of the super main gun. But they probably also realized that shooting beyond common sense like the one just now would not happen very often—but as long as there was such a possibility, it would hang over their heads like a sword of Damocles, so that their vital points would not dare to come forward.

After the expansion of the Reaper fleet, it did not hesitate to sail into the quiet area. The 23,000+ number of stars formed a halo that surrounded most of the galaxy, silently like a silent and ferocious wolf pack, looking around the lonely Mothership of Dawn.

The Dawn adjusts its stance again! The four massive engines in her tail parted in all directions, revealing a clear blue passageway.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, accompanied by a huge roar that shook the Mothership of Dawn, a beautiful and huge cuboid ejected from the ten-kilometer-wide passage that opened at the tail of the ship's hull!

From a distance, this object is a regular milky white cuboid of 5 km x 5 km x 7 km, which emits a hazy halo under the reflection of the blue giant star, and looks very beautiful. But if you look at it with a computer telescope, it will tell you that this seemingly regular cuboid is actually made up of 25,000 identical milky white cylinders!

Under the gravitational pull of the star, the milky white cuboid behind the mothership is detached and "slowly" falls/falls towards the surface of the blue giant. But after a tumble, it expands horizontally from a cuboid to 50 thin layers of "pieces of paper", and the collection of these pieces of paper still retains the form of a cuboid. Then, on the next tumbling, the pieces of paper are stretched again by the gravitational pull of the blue giant star, splitting vertically into 100 layers!

OFFICIALLY IT BECAME A CYLINDRICAL MATRIX OF 50X50X100, TOTALING 25000.

These cylinders stand autonomously at an angle to the perpendicular star's surface, just between the Mothership of Dawn and the blue giant. Her expanded size has far exceeded the mothership itself, so from a distance, it looks like a white coffee table placed under the Mothership of Dawn...... Is it really good to design like this?

Fortunately, the shapes of the "coffee table" and "cups" did not take too long, and the matrix rose upwards again, wrapping the Mothership Dawn into the central space of the matrix. After vacating the internal space, the matrix happens to be arranged into regular cubes with sides of hundreds of kilometers long.

This is the 10-year production of the Mothership Dawn, the million-mile, the 70-story dock, and the final construction of 25,000 "Lightning Strike" battleships!

The "Lightning Strike" battleship is cylindrical in shape, and its specific dimensions are a regular cylinder with a length of 700 meters and a diameter of 100 meters - its actual internal structure is extremely simple, not so much a battleship as a floating defensive battery of the Dawn - because the overall structure is a super cannon!

It's not that Lu Yuan doesn't want to explode troops and warships, so he built 500 "Chaoyang-class" (8-kilometer-class) warships in one go, and then pushed them all the way!

It's a pity that Dawn is not a country, they don't have their own star field, and they don't have their own diplomatic channels to obtain rare resources, so they can't reduce the construction cost and get enough resources! As the most cutting-edge and complex product of the entire pan-galactic civilization world, the super battleship represents the highest technological level of every nation, and the absolute height of manufacturing! Every battleship is the crystallization of large-scale industrial production!

The Dawn is now easy to build a test ship, but it is difficult to build it on a large scale!

First of all, the resources, the amount of "element zero" needed to build a battleship is simply astronomical! Fortunately, there is at least one bought asteroid to look forward to. However, less than half of the more than seventy rare metals in the basic materials used to build warships were collected by the Dawn for the time being...... The rest of the mineral sources are all controlled by the hands of the major races, and they are completely strategic resources, and you can't buy them even if you have money! This alone made the battleship plan die directly.

Not to mention the next outfitting, weapons and equipment, main gun manufacturing, and energy supply......

The laboratory of the Dawn had to use the existing resources in its hands to design and build the strange "Lightning Strike" defensive battleship based on the principle that since the rare metals and Element Zero were not enough, we simply did not need them at all!

The Lightning Strike does not have a Mass Effect Core, so it cannot use a Mass Effect Cannon, and it uses a main gun in the form of five energy forms: laser, plasma, neutron, cation, and negative energy. Because there is no mass core, of course, there will be no kinetic barriers, but the protection of the "lightning strike" ship is still excellent - because the entire straight hull, in addition to the surface of the anti-laser coating, 70% of the interior is multi-layer solid...... That is, multi-layer armor alone occupies 70% of the mass!

Moreover, the battleship uses a rather antique-grade magnetic engine with no energy loss (changing its own magnetic poles to fly using the magnetic field lines of the planet), which can only move near the low Earth orbit of the blue giant. There is no energy storage on the battleship, and when the energy cannon is activated, the energy is transmitted wirelessly......

In other words, this battleship is almost equivalent to a 700-meter solid alloy rod (the multi-layer structure is stronger and more resistant to fighting)! Without energy storage, there are no weaknesses! It won't explode anywhere! Even if only a third of the entire ship remains, it will be able to fight normally.

There is no bridge and cockpit inside, not even basic access. Because the 70 geth pilots, all of them exist in the form of programs on the internal chip.

In short, this is a kind of battleship that makes people vomit blood!
