Chapter 629: The Great Retreat (Part II)
The escape pod sailed at maximum speed, and the warships on both sides began to retreat backwards, and many blue beams began to spread around, and every time it touched the human warship, it was bound to cause great damage and even destruction.
The explosion was full of fire, but as the distance widened, these turned into bright spots, like starlight, faint and small in the universe.
The beam of the cold energy laser shot towards them, ignoring the vacuum environment and hunting, and a huge sound came into the already small escape cabin, and the high-energy response shook the instruments to some failures.
"Damn, you can't get rid of these shit things." "Ghost" looked at the alarms that kept popping up on the driver's column in front of him, and nervously piloted the escape pod, "If we continue like this, we will have to finish it all." ”
"I'll call for support, Simon." Xiao Qiang frowned and pressed his shoulder, although the irradiation of the healing beam had been carried out just now, but the healing instrument was affected by cold energy, coupled with the serious injury, he could not heal at all, only the most basic mobility.
"Hurry up, Gary!" The "ghost" was still driving nervously, and he had a hunch that the two of them might not be able to escape from the alien encirclement this time.
"This is 054A 'Xiaoqiang', here is 054A 'Xiaoqiang'! We are constantly under alien fire! Request support! Request support! Xiao Qiang continued to communicate with the surroundings, but the various branch channels and even the entire channel had been completely paralyzed, and only a slight "sizzling" sound could be heard, but there was no response.
The loss of communication networks is undoubtedly a terrible thing. The entire combat system was in a mess, but fortunately, with the calm and calm command of the captains. Only in time to buy time for each to retreat, so as to minimize the losses.
In front of the cold energy weapons of the Ceph people. The human offensive network and defense network have all failed, so the Chinese fleet is urgently evacuating, and now, "Xiaoqiang" and "Ghost" are eager to find a retreating warship and use the teleporter to save them.
But the situation is clearly not in their favor, Gary has no contact with anyone at all, and despite his constant efforts, he still has no results.
"Looks like we're out of the picture." Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Gary who was still struggling, and Simon coldly looked at the many high-energy reactions displayed on the screen. He still hasn't given up, and he's still trying to get rid of the pursuit of the cold energy laser cannon.
In fact, none of the dozens of invading Ceph warships in the back locked their escape pods with fire control systems. This is, of course, because the escape pod is so small, and instead of aiming at it, it is better to target the larger coalition warships around it.
However, the firepower of the Ceph people was very dense, so Gary and they were inevitably affected, and the surrounding warships were constantly hit and destroyed by cold energy beams, and some had exploded, and the fire spread to the surroundings.
See these fires. "Ghost" knows that many people have been sacrificed, and the next one is likely to be him and "Xiao Qiang", and "Xiao Qiang" is still trying to send out contact and ask for help.
"Boom" At this moment, there was a sudden violent explosion directly ahead. A Chinese warship was hit by several main guns of the Ceph fleet at the same time, and the whole thing exploded in an instant, spreading in all directions.
"Damn it!" Simon suddenly screamed that something was wrong. He immediately reversed course, but it was already too late.
The high-velocity debris from the violent impact and explosion slammed into the escape pod. In an instant, the originally fast-moving escape pod lost its balance, and the entire escape pod was swinging in the universe. Crash into the back.
"Ghost" and "Little Strong" clung to the railing to one side to keep themselves from being thrown out, and they realized that the situation was terrible.
The cold energy beam in the back finally hit the escape pod accurately, and in an instant, if Ike had taken a closer look with bullet time here, he could see that a deadly coarse cold energy beam had covered most of the escape pod and hit the belly of the escape pod.
At the moment of hit, the cold energy beam failed to penetrate the outer armor of the escape pod, but instead seemed to be blocked by something, only splashing countless turbulent ripples.
What's going on, could it be that the escape pod opened the energy shield to defend against cold energy?
Of course not, the real reason is that the shock wave of the explosion and the violent energy reaction temporarily formed a sub-explosion on the surface of the escape capsule, and the energy generated by this sub-explosion was exactly offset by the cold energy beam from the outside world, so neither the explosion nor the cold energy beam shot had fatal damage to the escape pod.
Just like the reactive armor installed in the 21st century tank, the reactive armor is equipped with inert explosives, and once an outside shell hits the tank, the reactive armor will produce a reverse explosion, canceling out the original explosion a little, so that the original shell explosion will not impact the people in the cabin to death.
Luckily, "Little Strong" and the others did not die due to the explosions on both sides, and Simon immediately drove away from the area in the moderately damaged escape pod.
"Damn, we need to get out of here."
"This is 054A 'Xiaoqiang'! We're under attack, request support, request support! "And Gary. Sanderson is also constantly trying to reach out to other people.
"Roger, this is 'Agave', we L-03 are moving in position (5342, 8632, 1737) and moving towards (5340, 8631, 1738), where are you. If we don't stop by the way, we can only flee first, sorry brother, the alien pursuit is too fierce. ”
This time, they were lucky enough to receive a response, a tired-sounding young female voice with a slight Czech accent in Chinese.
"......" Gary. Sanderson was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face, because he knew that L-03 was one of the numbers of the Dragon Scale V3 aircraft.
"That's great, you guys drop by with us, 'Tequila', we're about to arrive......" he reported Simon's imminent coordinates. Soon they will be found by friendly surveying instruments, and the two sides will soon be reconciled.
"Babbling" is at this time. A shrill scream suddenly rang out, right in front of the transparent protective window in front of the two of them. A blue mass suddenly flew over, filling the entire front.
Because this thing is almost completely transparent, it is not obvious from a distance, and it can only be seen when you look closely, and this large liquid spreads like a river in the universe at a slow speed.
These strange things collided head-on with the escape pods traveling in the opposite direction, but fortunately there were no accidents, and there seemed to be a gentle force in the transparent river, completely enveloping and supporting the escape pods. It did not cause any damage.
"Something!" The "ghost" frowned deeply, and he felt that the escape pod suddenly became a little uncontrollable, as if it was a firefly that had been pulled by a large piece of spider silk thread.
"The aliens are coming!" Gary let out a scream and saw a dozen inconspicuous Ceph men swimming from the river at a high speed. Nearly half of the Cephs broke away from it at the edge of the river, activated their own acceleration armor, and soon swooped into a human warship.
It turns out that the liquid flowing like a river in this strange universe is the culprit, and it turns out that the Ceph people used this method to approach the various warships of the human race and destroy them one by one. Instead of the ranged blue beam weapon that Ceph had used before, which targeted the entire starfield.
"They're coming at us!" The remaining Ceph soldiers rushed towards them with weapons in hand, and they quickly approached the escape pod, their bodies clinging to the surface of the pod.
There was a continuous sound from the deck above the "bang, bang", it was obvious. The Cephs are already destroying the outer armor, and soon they will be swooping in.
"Damn~!" When Gary saw such a scene, his eyes immediately turned red. Picked up the AK247H on the seat and climbed the ladder. Go up and fight the Cephs to the death.
"Don't be impulsive, 'Xiaoqiang'!" Seeing Gary send him to his death. Simon grabbed him in time to stop the stupid thing he was going to do, "We still have a way out." ”
"Dragon Scale V3 can't catch up." Gary shook his head, still trying to break free of Simon's pull.
"No, it's not Dragon Scale V3." "Ghost" slammed "Xiaoqiang" back to his seat, "Sit tight!" ”
The escape pod stopped moving forward, and then retreated backwards and downwards at a high speed, and because of this sudden turn and acceleration, Gary's head slammed into the wall on the side, and for a moment his eyes were full of stars.
As a result of this abrupt shift, many of the Cephs on the top deck were thrown off, but they quickly swam back to get on top of the escape pod again.
"I won't let you get away with it!" Seeing such a scene on the surveillance screen at the top, Simon continued to let the escape pod accelerate backwards, temporarily throwing them away.
Ceph's solo flight equipment was actually not as fast as the escape pod, they had only approached with the help of the strange river just now, and now they couldn't keep up with the speed of the escape pod.
Except for the three Ceph infantrymen who were still wreaking havoc on the escape pod, all the other aliens were thrown away.
However, at this time, in front of them, a broken human warship appeared, and the fragments and ruins of the battleship were scattered around, burning in the local air environment with fire, looking dilapidated.
They drove into the place, surrounded by other Ceph assault troops.
They are not completely out of danger.
And at this moment, in various regions of the galaxy, the same scene is being staged, Zoomlion is massively shrinking its forces, and they are constantly retreating to minimize losses. Although Ceph's level of technology is completely similar to that of humans, the cold energy below absolute zero is really unexpected, and almost all weapons are ineffective.
And if the civilians can't retreat in time, the Zoomlians can only stay and fight Ceph to the death.
At the same time, the Star Alliance and the European Union were already in a state of collapse, and they did not have time to retreat, and the number of front-line warships killed reached nearly half in an instant. The Rising Sun withered and cowered in a small galaxy due to a lack of aviation skills, but escaped as a result.
