XV. The arrow in the skull

(Author's note: Yesterday due to the power outage in the afternoon, only one chapter was changed, and it was made up today.) In addition, please vote more and reward more**, it's been a little deserted recently)

"Choose the Star Alliance Fleet player, and you can mobilize 416,000 warships."

Ding Rui previously only paid attention to the changes of the beast clan in the game, but when he officially entered the game system, he knew that the Star Alliance had changed much more, after introducing new information and data about the beast race, the Star Alliance military realized that the beast race was not a blue shield fleet that could be dealt with, and now in addition to the original blue shield fleet of 37,000 warships, the ten elite fleets with the same name as the blue shield have all been put into optional projects, the lineup has been expanded tenfold, and the alternative combat plan has been ten times more, but the command system has been streamlined, and the original manpower control equipment has all been changed to drones, Obviously, it is an alternative to the suicidal offensive mode.

Akiran's planet mode is based on the state of the presence of the empress, from the birth of the first nest worm, the time is condensed to 1:18000, and the total number of alien insects is more than 16 billion when it is officially confronted, which is a thousand times more than the number of drones that all warships can carry.

In this state of large-scale confrontation, and at the same time with the goal of destroying the other party, the overall tactics become unimportant, anyway, it is a desperate fight, the important thing is instant tactics, because the main target of the fleet is the planet, so the key to victory or defeat is whether the fleet can enter the designated combat position at the fastest speed, and the battle star alliance fleet is bound to lose, as long as the planet still exists, the beast clan is equal to having an almost infinite supply of soldiers.

This made Lisa sweat for Ding Rui, in fact, after the last battle between Ding Rui and Golia, although the marriage agency tried to keep a low profile, the battle video still flowed out, and it was nothing at the time, but Rui Ke quickly attracted attention after the battle between the sixth-dimensional earth and the orcs, and then I knew that in the game, even if the orc information was not perfect, the Blue Shield fleet also suffered a crushing defeat.

In addition to the big names like Golia, the female players who came to marry this time are basically well-known in the game industry, and naturally they have all seen the video of Golia's defeat at the beginning, since the military has comprehensively upgraded "Destruction of Akiran", it has caused a wave of research boom, which also has the agitation of the military, the Star Alliance military is well versed in the role of group wisdom, and in the participation of many players, it is easier to find tactics to deal with the beasts, and the six-dimensional earth has been confirmed to be an independently generated beast, and the military high-level has also issued instructions, Specialized research is done to deal with the orcs to ensure that they have mature tactics in place when the crisis strikes. So although Goliath used to be a big name, now it is equivalent to the redevelopment of the game, and she is basically on the same starting line as other players. But after all, she is famous, and the audience basically thinks that she is the favorite to win the championship.

On the stage, the game equipment appeared, and the word "flash" was played, and Ding Rui sat down in the game slot after saluting the audience after taking the stage, and the first challenger or marriage seeker entered.

Without much red tape, the master of ceremonies gave a brief introduction to the challenger, and the game officially began.

Ding Rui entered the game and immediately felt the change from before, no longer at the beginning of the sight of the planet Akiran, the military knew that the empress knew how to arrange tactics, so the game began to appear in the vast space, thousands of eyeworms in advance outside the planet's atmosphere 160 kilometers away, probably for the convenience of the player, the detection area was gridded and marked with the number of each location. A dense white dot surged in the distance, and it was none other than the Star Alliance Fleet.

Looking at this piece alone is like a black cloth sprinkled with a handful of white chalk ash, a little closer can see that the fleet adopts the method of parallel advancement after the overall air jump, the previous tactics of sending the vanguard to explore the way have been abandoned, the fleet surrounds Akilan in ten directions, leaving no dead ends, this is a steady and steady way, no matter which direction the beasts attack, the four adjacent fleets can watch and help each other, the built firepower network is semicircular, and the battleship does not hesitate to lay a long pin-bearing minefield while marching, If the Worm wants to attack when the fleet structure is loose, the fleet can retreat to the minefield at any time, and the Worm will crash headlong into the firepower net and minefield, causing huge casualties.

Ding Rui could only wait, 69 kilometers from the atmosphere is the battlefield of the decisive battle between the two sides, which is not the best position for the fleet's long-range attack, but also lengthens the war zone, making the supply line of the beast clan's soldiers longer, and both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages.

This is the best tactic launched by the military computer and countless military experts after thousands of wargames, this method almost does not need to be commanded, the victory or defeat only lies in the details of the operation of the two sides in the course of the battle, according to the results of the wargame, as long as the player is not completely amateur to the operation of the fleet, the final fleet will win by a slight advantage.

It is worth mentioning that the military still played a little clever when setting the key character of the empress, they knew that the empress's consciousness could leave the body and be received by other insects, and the setting was that the empress's consciousness would not go beyond Akilan. In fact, Ding Rui knew that the beast clan had occupied at least seven planets, and even if Aki Lan was defeated, the empress consciousness was received by the insects on other planets, and she would soon be able to reopen her branches and establish a powerful army.

Therefore, if you really want to eliminate the beasts in actual combat, the most important thing is intelligence work, to ensure that no insect is missed, and to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. This is a headache for the General Armament Department of the Star Alliance, thinking that it took a lot of effort for Ougun to trap the Empress's consciousness in a small palace hall, and now it is almost impossible to trap the entire planet with zero energy to prevent the Empress's consciousness from escaping.

But I have to admit that the scientists of the Star Alliance are indeed smart enough, and they have come up with a way to lock the location of the Empress's consciousness, and the experimental project is called "Arrow in the Skull".

The Empress's consciousness drift is essentially a kind of empty jump, which requires the assistance of the Force, although the consciousness does not have breath like a living body, but the Force can detect it, just like there are no two identical leaves in the world, and the trajectory of the Force is not the same when the Force is empty. Therefore, tracking the empress's consciousness displacement, space-time jump, and force changes can be locked.

However, if you realize that the new insect is in the body, there will be a difference in the Force, so the reason why the "arrow in the skull" is not completely successful is that there is still a lack of raw data related to the Empress's consciousness, as long as this data is combined with the trajectory of the Force, even if the consciousness escapes to the ends of the earth, it will not escape detection.

This raw data is not in Ding Rui's brain, but in Xiaolan's brain, she has the ability to inherit and displace, but due to the limitations of her current Force level, she can't do empty jumps. In addition, the Arrow in the Skull Project is highly secret to the military, and no one knows about it.

What's more, even if you know, there is no need for game companies to include this paragraph, the reason is very simple, there is no gameplay in this process, so the version that Ding Rui is playing at the moment is still a key difference from the real military's military operations.

This also caused Ding Rui's negligence, although he thought that the game could not be equated with real military operations, but he did not know the "arrow in the skull" plan, he felt that the military did not make critical progress in the confrontation with the beasts, and felt that the military was not a big deal.

The game has officially begun, and it should be said that the challengers in front of the queue are still relatively disadvantaged, because no one knows Ding Rui's true level, although some players think that according to the combat plan provided by the military, the game has become untechnical, purely just to experience the grandeur and blood of the war, but senior players still realize that in the case of evenly matched, success or failure depends on the details of the operation.

Who in the world knows the details of the beasts better than Ding Rui?

Today's battle is equivalent to cutting out the section where the strikers tested each other when Ding Rui and Golia were fighting, and directly entered the decisive battle after a large-scale parallel advance. As soon as the two sides made contact, it entered a white heat, and under the cover of the powerful firepower network of the fleet behind them, the number of tens of millions of drones maintained a horizontal formation and advanced towards the beasts while firing, and the beasts were undoubtedly short in terms of long-range weapons, relying on a huge number to try to get close to each other and force the opponent to fight in close combat.

At the beginning of the game, it is similar to the confrontation of all players, with the killer bees on the periphery of the planet breaking into the fire network one after another, consuming the opponent's ammunition with their lives, while covering the other flying classes with strong combat power behind them to try to get close to the fleet, and under normal circumstances, when the flying class comes into contact with the drone swarm, it will lose nearly half. Wait until the melee to see the player's skill.

But the battle only lasted for three minutes, many players found that something was wrong, under the same tactics, the loss of the orcs operated by Ding Rui was obviously lower than usual, according to the military's setting converted to the calculation method of the earth, the distance between the two sides was 320 kilometers when the war began, and the orcs sprinted at the fastest speed It took about 5-8 minutes to break into the drone swarm, which was the most important period for the loss of the beast flying troops.

But Ding Rui still did not attack after the opponent continued to shoot for three minutes, and the killer bee troops shrouded in the fire net showed a rolling posture, and retreated after being attacked in the first wave, and were filled by the second echelon, and the entire killer bees were arranged very densely, like a huge ball in space that continued to be attacked by fire.

"Is he looking for death?"

"Do you think Prince Hesin has a lot of skills? It turned out to be a game idiot at all. ”

There were players in the audience who began to whisper, it was obvious that Ding Rui was trying to consume fleet ammunition by echelon resistance after discovering that the killer bee could not be killed by one shot, but players all know that drones are conventional weapons, Ding Rui's way of course consumes a lot of weapons and ammunition for drones, but the real killer weapon is the devastating weapons on large warships when entering 15 kilometers, such a dense roll can indeed enter the drone swarm with minimal loss, but as long as it enters the range, the long-range weapons on large warships will start to attack regardless of whether they are friends or enemies, the denser the more you die.

"Merge the drone team and prepare the doomsday bomb." The female guest who fought against Ding Rui operated calmly, ready to give the spherical insect swarm that entered the drone swarm a head-on attack.

"Knock knock knock ......" all the warships were launched, tens of thousands of doomsday bombs hit the spherical insect swarm at the same time, and the drone swarm was dispersed in time when attacking, and the damage was very small, everyone saw that the insect swarm turned into a huge fireball, and the explosion continued to continue, only the first wave of attacks made almost all the killer bees burn out, and the entire planet was exposed to long-range weapons.

"Game over." The female guest was very proud, and she couldn't imagine that it would be so easy to defeat Prince Hesin.

"No, it won't." Lisa was surprised, she had witnessed with her own eyes how hard Ding Rui practiced his tactics and communication with the insects on the planet Dajia, and how he practiced more and more and went back.

Only Goliath noticed that the continuously burning fireball was still rolling, and although the huge attack had reduced it by nearly ninety percent in size, it still seemed large. Suddenly, her pupils contracted, and she saw Ding Rui's true intentions.

"Beware!" She couldn't help but cry out.
