readx;?: "Isn't it too dangerous here?" Yes, very dangerous! Plane 197 is far more dangerous than any of us have ever been, and if we had any better options, I wouldn't have led you here to try your luck. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info But don't worry, you are all free to choose how long you want to stay here, and soon, this new space-time gate network will be filled with various types of planes like the space-time gate network of the Space-Time Council, catering to the needs of different people......"

Shen Chao, who was on the podium, himself admitted that his current move was a dangerous decision, but he quickly dispelled the fear in most people's hearts with a rather relaxed and even witty tone. He had to do it, and before he was so lively, the atmosphere was as oppressive as if he were in a cemetery.

And this plane, which Shen Chao had all kinds of high hopes and scared others to speak before, was the plane described in the famous science fiction novel "The Three-Body Problem". This year is an ordinary day in the second half of the A.D. year 1978 on Earth.

It has only been 7 years since a woman sent a stellar signal to the outside world for the first time to leak the earth, and the reply message of the Trisolarans has not yet been transmitted back to the solar system, Tomoko has not yet been created, and there is still a seemingly endless amount of time before the destruction of the solar system and even the destruction of the entire dimensional universe by another woman.

If the expedition can gain a foothold here and learn the advanced technology of all levels of civilization here, perhaps they will have a chance to save the fate of this plane that is heading for death and greatly increase their strength. If not, the process of destruction will continue, and they can at least learn from the failure experience of this dimensional universe step by step towards destruction, and avoid the same fate from happening to them as much as possible.

Due to the great danger in all aspects, only a few people really agreed with Shen Chao's decision, and the members of the expedition team present decided to follow out of responsibility and trust in Shen Chao, and the vast majority of civilians on the scene did not participate because of this.

The reason why they are willing to take such a huge risk is that the promised benefits are enough to tempt anyone, and there are hundreds of civilians on the scene, including scientists, merchants, adventurers, etc., who are not valued in the Temporal Council system.

These people are not dragged down by their families, and they all have certain achievements in their respective fields. Before they came, they were promised to travel freely through the new space-time portal network and conduct any research they wanted. Or experience whatever life they are willing to experience.

Scientists are free to study any subject here, without fear of outside regulation and public opinion, and merchants can use the new space-time gate network to do any kind of scalping, as long as they pay income tax to the expedition in proportion to the profits.

Adventurers, on the other hand, can go to any dangerous world they want. Discover unknown dangers and treasures. Again, just pay taxes on your earnings and report your findings. They will have the direct support that Shen Chao promised.

And as long as they can convince Shen Chao to agree to their plan or simply bring enough considerable benefits to the expedition, they can carry out such a trip and obtain the right to use the new space-time gate from Shen Chao.

Compared to the Space-Time Council's controllable plane management system, this new system will undoubtedly be much more chaotic and complicated. The only restriction is that the people on the dark web will never be able to return to the space-time gate network of the Space-Time Council, at least not without Shen Chao's approval.

So for every civilian who comes here. It's a one-way journey and adventure that only the bravest and most ambitious are willing to come to. And now, many of them have finally waited for their chance to perform. Because Shen Chao is announcing the official completion of this system.

"Now, I know that many of you can't wait to put your skills to work, while others just want to get out of this dangerous hunting ground right away. Don't worry, I'm not going to waste a whole bunch of time telling about the glory of history and all sorts of nonsense. We don't have that much time to waste, now, let's start a new journey, I'm sure you all can't wait......"

After finishing his short opening speech. Shen Chao immediately signaled to escort several space-time gate stabilizers to the scene. Judging by his tone and gesture, he seemed to be more anxious than those adventurers with red eyes.

After his order was given, several manned Titan mechs steadily pushed a batch of space-time gate stabilizers covered with curtains to the front of the venue and arranged them in a row. The stabilizers are connected to a space-time portal, each of which is fixed to a dangerous plane that has never been explored.

And these passages to dangerous planes will be the cornerstone of their future. The members of the expedition and the civilians with different purposes will enter their own planned planes, go on their own adventures, and bring back the people and resources needed for foreign development. technical achievements, etc.

There is no record of the mission of the expedition members, except for the recurring report of the "RT-2001" codename, which is vague and its exact meaning was not revealed until much later, and as with the establishment of the dark web, the secret project did not become apparent until much later.

Although some of the expedition records are difficult to verify due to confidentiality issues. However, the destinations of the civilian adventurers, and even their actual journeys, are fairly well documented, with the first three planes dedicated to civilian groups being particularly popular, favored by scientists, merchants, and adventurers, respectively.

They are: Plane 1135 - Star Trek, Plane 1758 - EVE Star Wars, Plane 2263 - Warhammer 40K. Although, according to historical records, the civilians who entered these planes to explore eventually suffered a lot of casualties. But at the same time, a large amount of revenue has been brought back from these planes, laying the foundation for the first phase of the development of the dark web.

It can be said that in the future, everyone will become a god, and the time and space divine kingdom with combat power against the sky is the prototype formed at this stage. It was here that Shen Chao ended his own adventure, after the opening ceremony of the new Space Station Zero. He quickly exited, handing over the operation of the space station to Hargrett, and then rushed to an important battlefield in the Space-Time Council network with the members of the Guard.

In order to have enough camouflage effect, he must start to adapt to his new identity now, and remain in the space-time portal network of the Plane Council for a long time, and the battlefield he is now rushing to is a very important plane that was once very important and will be represented in the future.

This is the Mass Effect Plane, and at this time, the newly reorganized First Fleet of the Space-Time Fleet has been assembled in a remote area of the cross-sectional star. There isn't a single Mass Effect repeater in the vicinity for hundreds of light-years, and it's a veritable dark zone in the galaxy.

During the months he had been in a coma, the space-time portal network had not been closed, and after he woke up. The Reaper's invasion has entered the countdown stage, and due to many considerations, especially the choice of the direction of the fleet's development, Shen Chao decided not to close the space-time gate as previously planned, and to blow up the fleet in the rear and fight back.

This method is undoubtedly the safest. Previously, he had sent a delegation to the Wandering Earth Plane to find the government department to complete the negotiations of intent, and the other party agreed to accept the leadership of the Space-Time Council and exchange industrial capacity for safe world habitation.

In other words, the world with super huge industrial potential is about to become part of the space-time council, and the explosion of the fleet is already a sure thing. However, it was under such circumstances that Shen Chao changed his mind, and he decided to concentrate his existing main fleet here and fight a head-on battle with the army of reapers, who had invaded the galaxy, in order to test the effectiveness of the entire combat system. Decide on the specific direction of the future explosion fleet.

At this time, the dark zone where the fleet is located is artificially created, and the reason why there are no repeaters within a few hundred light-years of the vicinity is because the Citadel Council has long organized governments to transport all the peripheral Mass Effect repeaters that can be located to the new location, ensuring that the first round of attacks by the Reapers cannot penetrate the heart of the galaxy.

The Citadel station, which controls all cantilever-class repeaters, has long since been moved to the galaxy's core defenses and weaponized. Today, the Citadel is no longer a large city filled with people of all ethnic groups, but a huge weapon, surrounded by battle groups of the Combined Fleet, ready to deal with any blow.

On the First Fleet's side, the Executor was accompanied by 64 Imperial-class Star Destroyers to form an arrow-shaped array with a length of more than 4 million kilometers. They had just received news that the first lead units of the Reapers, through a repeater at the edge of the galaxy, had officially entered the galactic defense circle.

The size of the first harvesters was not as large as expected. According to the data collected by the Combined Fleet's probes, the total number should be less than 20,000, but according to the latest reports, it seems that all the lead forces are made up of Overlord-class Reapers. This makes their shock capability much higher than initially expected.

At this time, half of the combined fleet of the Citadel has already rushed over in a super-large offensive formation with the fleets of the allied forces of various countries, ready to join the leading forces of the Reapers, and it is expected that the two sides will meet on the battlefield within an hour and start exchanging fire.

At this time, Sister Xue stood back and forth in the new inner CIC of the Executor, suppressing the tension in her heart. She was the commander of this battle, but Shen Chao's orders were clear. You have to wait for him to come before you can start the engagement.

Although she was tempted to order the fleet to attack directly when she received the confirmed report of the Reaper's invasion, she rejected the idea in consideration of the future prospects of the war of resistance. Just when she was getting more and more anxious, Shen Chao finally appeared here and gave permission to leave.

"You can continue, Shepard. His words were only such a short sentence, but Sister Xue was relieved. As one of the few people who knew what Shen Chao was doing, she had always been opposed to prematurely exploring a dangerous plane like the Three-Body Problem. But at this point, Shen Chao has now moved the expedition team to the dark web, and she, like everyone else, can only help with the show.

"This is the fleet headquarters, all pay attention, confirm the coordinates of the No. 3 jump point, and start the collective jump in 1 minute...... Fortunately, Sister Xue doesn't care much about the distant future, she always focuses on the present, so she can quickly put her thoughts back on the current battle, and immediately give the departure order with Shen Chao's approval.

An hour and a half later, in a remote and numbered system within the cross-sectional sector, the vanguard of the Reapers had formed a mess with the combined fleet that had come to intercept it. The total number of warships engaged in the battle between the two sides exceeded 100,000, which was much larger than when the Citadel fleet launched the war of extermination against Jace.

However, the Reapers, not Jace, their fleets are a whole notch better than Jace in terms of firepower, defense, and coordinated command. Although the combined fleet had absolute numerical superiority and relative superiority in firepower, half an hour passed after the battle began, and the scales of victory did not tilt in their favor.

On the contrary, within the front-line headquarters of the combined fleet, some high-ranking generals have already smelled signs of defeat. "Quick, order the 17th Column to rush to the support point immediately and reinforce the attack surface of Group B, our flank is about to be pierced......" Admiral Hackett commanded the Star-League battle group in the command channel.

The battle has been going on until now. The battle groups of the Star Alliance and the Touareg have always been very strong, as the main force of the combined fleet, the fleets of both sides together account for two-thirds of the entire fleet group facing the battle, which is composed of nearly 70,000 warships of all classes. Firmly control the front of the main attack surface.

Because of this, their losses were the most severe, the battle lasted only half an hour, the loss of the battle group was already close to 10%, and the warships of dozens of fleets disappeared in the fierce battle with tens of millions of lives. No one has time to grieve. No one has the opportunity to think about their own safety.

They are the galaxy's first line of defense, and it's their job to keep no reaper from breaking through it. Although there are still hundreds of thousands of warships on standby in the rear, they are all guarding the core of the galaxy, and they have neither time to rush over, nor can they let the core area go unprotected.

So, they are the first and most important line of defense, and they must destroy all of the Reaper spearheads here, even if it means all of them dying here. There is no doubt that the bravest of all races are the ones who can appear here to fight at this time. The most combat-ready troops.

However, this does not mean that there are no shortcomings among them, after all, not every race has a military system as strong as the Touareg or the human to support large-scale military expansion and talent training, and the fleets of other races are not as strong as theirs.

As if knowing that the battle cluster formed by the Star Alliance and the Touareg would be difficult to break through, the Reaper's main attack direction quickly shifted to the edge of the battle, specifically to knock on the small race fleets that were small in size and under-trained. Hopefully open a breakthrough in them.

Although the soldiers of these races also tried their best to resist, their defenses were constantly broken down due to their limited ability. As a result, both Hackett and the commander of the Touareg station who came to oversee the battle had to constantly send their own support fleets to fill the holes.

It was already very difficult to resist the Reaper's offensive, and now that the troops had to be constantly divided, everyone in the command saw the danger, but no one could break the deadlock. The only solution is to quickly bring down the main vanguard of the Reapers, only then can they have a respite. Otherwise, even if this battle can be won, not many people will survive in the end.

Just when the atmosphere of the command headquarters was becoming more and more solemn, an emergency communication with a low encryption level suddenly came, and the source of the mark was actually Sister Xue, who had been missing for several months. This message caught Hackett's attention.

After all, Sister Xue was once the best soldier under him. She has also been committed to fighting the Reapers, and her sudden disappearance on the eve of the Reaper's arrival is very sensitive information, and some people even think that she is a deserter, because her identity is too sensitive, her disappearance has also been treated as confidential information, and is not released to the public, so as not to affect the morale of the military.

And now, at the critical moment of the battle, her message suddenly came, which in itself may indicate a turning point, Hackett still remembers Sister Xue's performance in turning the tide of the battle by herself during the Battle of the Divine Castle, and has high expectations for her sudden appearance in his heart.

However, his expectations still couldn't catch up with reality, and after connecting the communication, Sister Xue's first sentence made him almost stunned in shock. "Admiral, let the fleet group immediately distance itself from the enemy, I brought reinforcements here, they need space to play with their firepower advantage!" ”

It was this short piece of advice that stunned Hackett, and he almost thought he had misheard. Firepower superiority? What are you kidding, the combined fleet composed of troops of dozens of races in front of him has formed a firepower advantage over the reaper's fleet before he dares to say it, and as soon as Sister Xue speaks, she is sure that the fleet she brought can have a firepower advantage over the reaper? And how big and strong is the fleet she brought?

Just when Hackett was stunned, a battleship on the edge of the battle group detected the space-time fleet rushing towards the battlefield at high speed, and because they could not identify friend or foe, they immediately sent the detected data to Hackett.

Seeing the data displayed in the hologram in front of him, Hackett was even more confused. Although the size of the executor who started was very shocking, much larger than the Reaper killer he was riding on now, the remaining following battleships did not seem to be very large, and the number was also very small, how could they have too strong firepower?

His doubts didn't last long, though, and after only two minutes, the space-time fleet was close enough. Then he quickly spread out his combat formation and rushed into the center of the war zone! "It's suicide," shouted all those who noticed the change.

Because the center of the theater of operations has been beaten into a shining dead field by dense fire at this time, any warship in that area will be quickly beaten into a sieve or vaporized by dense artillery fire. Even the average survival time of the Overlord-class Reaper in this area is only a short dozen seconds, not to mention what will happen to the warships below the Overlord-class.

But the space-time fleet doesn't seem to care at all about the dense firepower here. They formed an M-shaped offensive formation and rushed straight over, firing a volley from a great distance. At this time, they were still 10 light-seconds away from the nearest Reaper battleship, and it took more than ten seconds for the cannon to reach its target.

Taking into account the scattering of artillery fire and the movement of enemy ships, and most importantly the number of space-time fleets, everyone decided that this salvo would have no effect. Take out a dozen hapless Reaper ships at most.

But they soon realized their mistake a few seconds after the fire was detected, and it was only those who were in charge of monitoring the fire information to discover the anomaly. "They, their cannon ......," the officer in charge of reporting the discovery shouted incoherently at Hackett, as if he had discovered something extremely incredible.

"Calm down, lieutenant, what's wrong?" Hackett reprimanded dissatisfied, now that the battle situation is so tense, he is very dissatisfied with his subordinates who stutter at critical moments. But he soon found that he no longer needed an explanation, because by this time the round of artillery fire had reached their respective destinations.

More than ten seconds later. An explosive message reached the ears of Hackett and the other battlefield generals through another department. "One thousand, wait, it's 1071 effective attacks confirmed to be from friendly ship groups, and the latest statistics confirm that more than 300 Reaper ships were destroyed by this round of strikes." ”

"What, repeat? "In the command rooms of many fleet flagships, the generals were shocked beyond words after hearing this news, you know, they fought for half an hour, lost tens of millions of comrades, and now the record confirmed by the supercomputer is less than 3,000.

And the space-time fleet that had just arrived at the scene had only a few dozen warships. Unexpectedly, a salvo shot in less than two minutes to shoot out 1 billion people, a super fleet of more than 90,000 warships of all classes, worked hard for half an hour, and played one-tenth of the record? Doesn't this mean that the firepower of dozens of warships on the other side is stronger than the tens of thousands of warships on the other side combined?

It sounds incredible, but it's true. But that's not the whole story. First of all, the scale and technical level of the warships in the Star Wars plane are indeed significantly superior to their warships, but what really created this proud record is the massive turrets and the overall optimized fire control system.

The warship designs of the Star Wars plane are almost entirely based on the idea of the revered multi-turret cult. The average Emperor-class battleship has dozens of twin turrets, each of which is as capable of delivering fire as the Reaper's main guns, and has a longer range.

In addition, the coordination between these turrets has been greatly improved after fire control optimization, especially when operated by AI. The turrets of the whole ship can be coordinated and powerful as if they were operated by one person, and they can deliver their own firepower with precision.

In addition, the firepower of the Executor cannot be ignored, the whole ship is equipped with 500 heavy turrets, each of which is more powerful than the standard turret of the Emperor class, due to the huge scale, the recharge speed and cooldown time are also much faster than the Emperor class, and the firepower is close to the total of 30 Emperor class Star Destroyers when fired in a salvo.

In this way, the salvo firepower just now is almost equivalent to the result of the unified power of 100 Emperor-class ships, although most of the firepower did not hit the target, but a third of the thousands of artillery fire still hit the target.

A third of them were fatally wounded, directly killing more than 300 Overlord-class Reapers. As if surprised by this result, the formation of more than 10,000 reapers remaining on the battlefield suddenly fell into a very brief pause, and then quickly resumed maneuvering, changed the direction of the previous main attack, and rushed straight in the direction of the space-time fleet.

"It's not good, flash the ......" Hackett immediately shouted in the communication channel, hoping that Sister Xue on the other end would understand what she meant and quickly drive the space-time fleet to other places. Although he still did not know where the fleet that came to support them came from or what forces they belonged to, the strong performance of the other party proved that they were definitely allies, and they were very, very important allies.

On the level of the overall battle situation, the safety of these allies is already higher than the safety of the Combined Fleet, because no other fleet can inflict such a swift and swift blow on the Reaper, and the potential value of dozens of warships on the other side is enough to turn the entire battle situation upside down.

Even if you don't go to war, as long as you can apply the technology of those ships to other ships, the Reaper will no longer be an invincible enemy. And the reapers, on the other hand, must have figured this out in that brief moment just now, so they concentrated their forces on rushing over, hoping to engulf this powerful enemy with their numerical superiority. (To be continued.) )
