Chapter 114: Hope and Despair
Salmos's expression was calm, but his mind was completely disrupted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As Kara's last civilized hero, the legendary captain, at this moment has to face dozens of times the strength of a fleet consisting of an Ise-class and detachment of strategic units.
Moreover, behind these dozens of times the strength, there are countless fleets coming, and the way of fighting in space is sometimes much more direct than the ground battle, because there is no terrain, bunkers, hiding points, etc., which can achieve the advantage of resisting corps-level combat units with individual combat units.
In the case of little difference in the performance of battleships, the number of fleets can decide almost everything.
Salmos sat in the captain's seat of the Ise-class, and the ship's control room had begun to be chaotic, and most people's hearts were covered by despair, and no one could think of how to use a fleet that had run out of energy to fight against dozens of times the fleet battle group.
Although Salmos maintained a calm appearance, the activity of the sweat glands in his hands revealed his inner turmoil.
The other hand took Sarmos's slightly trembling hand, Salmos turned his head, it was his lieutenant and his wife, and Anna held his hand.
"Honey, I'm here."
"I'd rather you weren't here."
Salmos's deep voice was not heard by anyone else in the chaotic master control room.
"I shouldn't have kept that group of Earth civilization captives, it was I who destroyed Kara's last galactic fleet."
"No, they are very precious bargaining chips, but no one would have thought that the earth civilization is in the direction of our advancement, originally with the speed of our spaceship, it is impossible for them to catch up with us, this is a coincidence, I don't blame you."
"But the facts are the facts, and if this fleet full of supplies is destroyed, the rest of our compatriots in space will be in a dead-end situation."
"Trust Kara, she's always going to save a hand at the last minute."
"I want to believe it, but I'm not sure if it's useful."
Anna hugged Salmos's head, and the two quietly shared this last moment of peace.
But the calm is always short-lived, especially in the midst of this existential death, when a gravitational wave communication is sent and picked up by every existing Kara spacecraft.
"The Kara people in the spaceship, surrender and hand over the Sidneyan habitation ship, otherwise, there will be no grass left."
Everyone saw this piece of information, and under the automatic translation system of the spacecraft, they also specially translated the meaning of the idiom of the earth.
Leave nothing behind: Kill people or destroy all kinds of things, leaving nothing behind.
"This ...... Is this the civilization of the earth? ”
Someone in the Ise-level main control room was stunned and said, sure enough, it was the same as the mother civilization propagated, it was a brutal and arrogant civilization.
At this time, countless people in the Sidenia residential ship were in tears, they could also accept this message, decades of wandering, decades of captive journey, had made them almost lose hope of returning to civilization, many Sidneys chanted the name of the earth and Sidney, trembling with excitement and tears.
Civilization has not forgotten them, Noah has not forgotten them, and the Lord has not forgotten them.
The huge fleet ahead that surpassed Kara's fleet dozens of times was Noah's hand of salvation to them.
And in the flagship of the Kara fleet, the Ise-class battleships, Salmos gave back a message.
"I know that you have captured a large number of our people, and it is not appropriate to threaten them with captives at this point...... But after we surrender and hand over the habiting ship, can you promise our lives? ”
"Yes."
"Thank you very much, but we can only choose to keep your commitment for the time being...... Sorry, we can't confirm that the person we are talking to has such power in the earth's civilization, and your commitment to our life does not mean that the head of the earth's civilization and the people have committed our life. ”
Salmos responded with a promise to change the address from "you" to "you".
While Salmos waited, the other party fell silent.
This can't help but make Salmos sweat, although it is only to delay the final battle, but he must ensure that the dialogue goes smoothly, if the other party gives up communication and starts a war regardless of the hostages in his hands, the Kara fleet will have no chance of reversing.
And when Salmos was about to change the problem, the feedback came back.
"I'm Noah."
This message was also received by all the ships, and most of the Kara people were confused and did not understand the meaning of this reply, while the captain Salmos and a small group of Kara people were frozen there at the moment.
At the same time, everyone in the Sidneya habiting ship, at this moment burst into an unprecedented cheer.
Others may not know, but Salmos, who has specially tortured many Sidneys in order to understand the form of the earth's civilization, may have been completely tamed by Noah, but among the thousands, there are always one or two who can't stand the torture and reveal some information about the earth's civilization.
In this part of the information, of course, there is the name of the leader who has lived for an unknown amount of time, whose life form is unknown, who is at the highest point of civilization, and who is forever mysterious.
【Noah】
These two words were like a hammer on Salmos's head, causing the legendary captain's brain to freeze on the spot.
He would never have thought that he thought that he was talking to the captain of an Earth Civilization Pursuit Fleet, and his question was just a hidden difficulty, used to delay time as much as possible, but the other party's reply made Salmos himself not know how to face it.
Although he is a civilization hero and a legendary captain, he has always been just an Ise-class captain, in the heyday of the Kara civilization, the number of Ise-class warships was not more than thousands, and he was only a little more aura than these thousands of captains of the same rank, to really say that in the Kara civilization, he was too far away from the real high-level.
And now he is talking to himself, but it is the head of another higher civilization? And a more dictatorial **** than the Kara civilization, which can almost be said to be the head of an imperial civilization?
"How can I trust you?"
In a slightly dizzy trance, Salmos sent out such a reply.
And the reply from the other side came quickly.
"I don't need to prove anything to you, I'll give you 10 seconds to make the final choice."
"Wait! It's hard for us to continue to negotiate with you with such an attitude! ”
“8”
"We just need a commitment! Just a promise! Thank you for your understanding! ”
“5”
"As long as you can prove it, we can surrender immediately and unconditionally!"
“3”
"Please wait, I'm trying to convince others, please wait!"
“0”
A wave-particle beam cannon pierced the cabins of the two Kara ships surrounding the Sidney inhabitants, and at the same time, the huge fleet began to advance, like a giant cart pressing on the praying mantis, to crush the Kara fleet on the opposite side, which had run out of energy.
The Ise-class began to shake violently, the impact of the wave-particle weapon on the energy shield.
"Damn! Don't they all care about the captives!? ”
"Avoid! Avoid! ”
"Run!"
The Ise-class main control room was in chaos at the moment, and there was also a mess, as well as the 360-degree salvo of the main guns brought by the Kara fleet, which had gathered to defend against the enemy back to back, surrounded by all directions, and any dodge was meaningless.
And the depletion of energy is destined to make Kara's fleet unable to support a large force field shield. In just a few seconds, dozens of Kara ships were drowned in the fireball of thermonuclear explosions.
Several Earthships turned on their energy shields and "crashed" into the Kara spacecraft that stood in their way at extremely high speeds, dragging the Sidney Habitants into the force field shield.
In the violent shaking, Salmos fell from the captain's seat, and there was almost no one left in the main control room to stand, and Salmos, who fell to the ground, did not get up, he just raised one of his arms. He set his eyes on the countdown projection on his wrist.
Although the conversation just now was short, it also made this countdown come to an end.
In the reflection of that projection, Salmos, who had just been filled with panic and fear, was gone, replaced by a cold killing intent and a glimmer of desperation.
"Forgive me, my fellow citizens."
Salmos whispered, and the next moment after he finished speaking, a group of Kara soldiers who had long been ready to go disappeared from the ship.
Yes, they disappeared in the true sense of the word, as if they had never appeared in the first place, and they suddenly disappeared into a closed cabin, where no trace of them could be found.
However, in the empty space outside the spaceship, many "corpses" suddenly appeared at this moment.
It was Kara servicemen exposed to the environment of space in the crossfire of the fleet.
This is the last struggle of the Kara civilization, and it is also the last and most cutting-edge technology brought about by the technological explosion of the Kara civilization - micro-wormhole transportation technology.
This is a new navigation technology that can theoretically achieve the speed of light obtained by the Kara civilization after breaking through the curvature navigation, and through the construction of micro-wormholes, the designated target can be "instantaneously sent" to a certain area.
Originally, the Kara civilization has long been close to the Type 2 civilization, they have stayed at the apex of the Type 1 civilization for too long, with the construction of the Dyson sphere, the technological explosion brought about by the appearance of light particles, they have opened the door to the Type 2 civilization, if they are allowed to develop independently, no more than 20 Earth years, they will become a complete Type 2 civilization, and the war with Noah will end soon.
Unfortunately, they don't have those 20 Earth years left.
The so-called microwormhole transportation technology is only a defective technology that can transmit a target below a certain mass to a random location within a specified azimuth of 1,000 kilometers.
But it was this crippled technology that became Kara's last means of completing a surprise attack in front of the Earth civilization, by teleporting heavily armed soldiers directly to the inside of the enemy ship to complete the decapitation operation!
Noah revealed his identity, and in addition to the shock to Salmos, he felt more of an excitement.
Although there are doubts about whether the other party is really the head of the earth civilization, although there are doubts about whether the other party is inside the ship, and even whether the other party really exists...... But if they really bet on the probability of an event that I don't know how low it is, maybe they, this fugitive fleet that has run out of energy, can complete the assassination of the head of civilization on Earth!
This is the last struggle of Salmos, and the last struggle of the Kara civilization.
Under the incomplete micro-wormhole transportation technology, most of the soldiers involved in the "decapitation operation" were teleported into space where the fleet exchanged fire, becoming meaningless cosmic dust.
But with the huge base of soldiers, there is always the last small group of people who have been successfully teleported to the Earth Fleet spaceship!
The small group of soldiers didn't have time to thank Kara for their luck, and they wore colonized exoskeletons and armed with antimatter weapons, and began to frantically sabotage and search the ship's interior.
At this moment, they had completely turned into killing weapons, and many of the combat robots inside the spaceship were destroyed before they could even switch to combat mode.
A total of 5 ships were invaded by Kara soldiers, one of which was a Delta-class battleship.
Salmos saw hope at this moment, the Delta class is the flagship ship of the Earth civilization, and there is a high probability that it will carry important people of the Earth civilization!
Both Salmos and the soldiers in charge of the breakthrough had already completed this battle with a mortal mentality, and no danger or weapon could stop them, they just rushed forward all the way, destroying everything they saw.
But what soon upset the agitated Salmos was that no matter how much the soldiers destroyed inside the ship, they could not find a being other than robots who could raise their guns to fight them, called life.
The soldiers who broke into the interior quickly gained insight into the structure of the ship through unhindered scanning, and they began to rush to the main control room. In the constantly shaking and shaking Ise-class interior, Salmos frantically shouted orders, and the Kara soldiers, together with Salmos's sight, broke into the main control room of the Delta-class battleship.
Hope appeared on Salmos's face, but in the face of the empty master control room, that hope was fixed on his face.
In front of the Kara soldiers holding the weapons of the opposing ship, a faint blue light and shadow swept in front of them, and in the common position where their guns were pointed, a girl in a white dress sat on the host computer in the main control room, her dark blue eyes reflected them.
A hint of playfulness flashed through the blue eyes.
"Have you ever felt despair?" (To be continued.) )
