Chapter 436: Circle
When a heavy crisis is chasing you, you feel that time is so tangled: you think it's slow enough to fix the, but it's too fast for you to be ready for everything — and that's how we're struggling right now.
But it all came.
After about six hours, the Imperial fleet finally approached the Twins' navigation limit in a series of acceleration and decelerations, and beyond that was an eerie zone of absolute chaos where no laws existed.
It's not the chaotic area of the law, but the complete vacuum where there is no law at all, the vacuum in all aspects, and Sandora's guess is completely confirmed, this is not outside the battlefield, but the former big explosion wiped out the battlefield itself.
"The Void, or at least a quasi-Void," the golden glow of Sandora's hair floated faintly, "except that there is no Void energy, this place is exactly like the Void...... Order, all lower-level battleships enter the mothership force field, the low-level apostles return to the space folds, the mothership force field is fully open, and we are ready to enter the void"
In this strange place, even the smallest space jump may have consequences, so this fleet transformation was completely driven by conventional engines, and the process took about thirty minutes, and during this time, we released more than a dozen probes in all directions, but once they were out of the protection of the mothership, they all turned into the debris of the void without exception.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a dangerous place in the black sun, it must be man-made."
Sandora said, reaching forward as if she were going to clench her fist and grasp something.
"I'm going to crush it, whatever it is"
The fleet moved cautiously, all scanning systems at full power, but with the rudimentary laws in place, the scanning range was greatly reduced to the range of the Admiral's force field, which was almost the limit area visible to the naked eye.
Therefore, when the alarm of the battleship sounded, we also directly saw with our eyes the strange black shadow that suddenly appeared in the distant chaos.
This is the first time in the Black Sun that we have directly seen something with a substance - although we were also in contact with an object with a substance when we "salvaged" the relics of the Protoss from the pseudo-existence area before, those weapons and equipment were only separated from the chaos under the action of the space probe of the salvage ship, and the strange black shadow in the distance appeared directly in the darkness: the only real substance in the chaotic black sun, and it was determined that it was the source of everything without thinking about it.
And it was also very strange, in the surrounding darkness, a small black dot the size of a grain of rice could not be distinguished with the naked eye anyway, not even a titanium dog's eye, but I only glanced at it and saw the distant shadow clearly, although it was exactly the same color as the surrounding background, it seemed to have some kind of magic at a glance, and it could easily identify its own existence.
Instead of returning to the bridge, we stayed on the platform atop the Admiral of the Empire, and in this strange place, the bridge didn't necessarily provide more protection, and a projection system emerged from front of us, presenting the image of the target scanned by the probe.
"What's that?"
I asked curiously, and what appeared in front of me was a very strange structure, not very clear, but its basic shape could be easily distinguished, it was something made up of three huge rings, these three rings were nested together, with a common axis, centered on this axis at acute angles to each other, it was slowly moving, the angles between the three rings were constantly changing, but always kept within the acute angles, and the core area of this strange structure was a huge black sphere, This is the second time I've seen such a strange scene, and on a pure black background, something else appears that is also pure black but extremely clear and sharp.
"King's Landing, it's a King's Landing-class Juggernaut ship"
Sandora's voice was tinged with surprise, and she exclaimed as she looked at the slowly moving ring on the holographic projection.
"Boat?" Shallow was surprised, "This bunch of hula hoops isn't a boat anyway, right?" ”
"Then this cross under your feet is like a ship?"
As soon as my voice fell, the shallowness wilted......
Well, now is not the time to discuss the Shealing aesthetic, and our attention is back focused on the massive circular structure.
I've seen some King's Landing-class information before, but due to the lack of information, these materials only describe the general abilities of King's Landing, but there are no corresponding pictures, which is what I didn't recognize at first...... The reason for the hula hoop.
This giant battleship is a monster created after the development of Xiling's war thinking to a certain extreme, and it looks like a bunch of concentric rings at angles to each other, and at first I almost confused these rings with Visk's star ring corridors and produced a lot of brain supplements......
Despite its strange shape, no one dared to question the terrifying power of King's Landing, because in the core area of King's Landing, the space warp field formed by the overlapping force fields of several concentric circles, there were three ultimate weapons: the Apocalypse, the Book of Genesis, and the Gospels.
Apocalypse, the ultimate war support system that can control the status of the entire galaxy, Genesis, an offensive weapon that can annihilate an entire star in an instant, and the Gospel of defensive components that can resist the end of the world, when these three super weapons are combined, even a galaxy with a high degree of military technology will be played with by the King's Landing, so the King's Landing-class is also known as the ultimate battleship of Xiling - even the "glory" above it cannot be compared to it in terms of destructive power.
But King's Landing also has its huge flaws, the terrifying energy required for the three components to activate at the same time will take up to seven days to slowly recharge even if the Void Energy is directly invoked, and in order to assemble and control these three extremely complex components, the King's Landinger class has to sacrifice all of its conventional weapon systems and eighty percent of its armor, which leads to the King's Landing's only means of attack is actually its three major moves, and it is simply a live target before these three moves are fully charged, The concentric rings were filled with an astonishing flow of energy, and the interference was so strong that the King's Landing could not assemble any form of energy shield, so it would have been easy to destroy this terrifying behemoth that was too extreme to break through the defenses near the King's Landing—but under normal circumstances, it would have been as difficult to fight the King's Landing's defenses as it was to survive the Genesis......
"Time is centered around that mysterious warship," Asa said affirmatively, "I can still feel that the flow of time in the whole space becomes more stable the closer to that hula hoop, it seems to be a radiation source, radiating the law of stability to the entire black sun." ”
Okay baby, your analysis is very professional, but please don't use a hula hoop to name the Empire's most BT battleship casually, okay?
Legal-level weapons, I finally saw the law weapons created by the Xiling people—of course, in scientific terms, this should be called the "cosmic law weapon"—and although its shape is tearful, its power has deeply shocked each of us.
According to Sandora's analysis, the part that the battleship is now activated should be the "Apocalypse", a kind of law that can macroscopically regulate the entire galaxy, since it can make the cosmic constants and even the laws of the universe within the entire galaxy be distorted at will, then it is naturally easy to create a law of time inside the black sun, there is no doubt that it is something that the enemy uses to deal with us.
So of course, the so-called revelation that has been permeating the Kepru star area before should also be its strength, using the nature of the law to set a false fact that "the Xiling people are invaders" in the Kepru area, which is not too difficult, and it is no wonder that those ordinary races will be deeply affected by the "revelation".
In an instant, I guessed one of the most likely enemies: the Fallen Apostles
Who else but those neurotics can use the ships of the Spiritual Empire against us?
But it's really all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred...... We're still working on technology locks, and we can even take them out at the King's Landing level
"What is the boss going to do now? Go straight up to the explosive equipment? It doesn't seem to have any armor" Lilina had completely given up trying to contact Clank, a green halo floating around her, and the little girl was full of fighting spirits, I was sure that as long as I nodded at this time, this girl would be able to charge up with such a devastating slogan as "In the name of the goddess, I removed the pile of circles and forks for the old lady".
I also cast an inquiring glance at Sandora, Lilina's words are not undesirable, although the King's Landing-class Juggernaut is powerful, its fragility is also well known, and there are no other defense forces in the vicinity, maybe it can be successfully destroyed directly.
"Wait, I've always found it a little weird...... "Sandora frowned, "what about the enemy?" The Fallen Apostles have used a series of arrangements to trap us in this trap, so can they rest assured that everything will be taken care of by an unmanned spaceship? ”
"Sure enough, a cautious enemy, Princess Warsong, Sandora? "Just as Sandora's words fell, the voice of a middle-aged man who sounded very ordinary, like a neighbor's uncle who worked in a steel mill, suddenly sounded around us, and there was a little hoarseness in it, as if there was sand flowing in its sound waves, "If you really rush straight over, it will really save me a lot of trouble." ”
As these words fell, a faint gray shadow gradually emerged not far in front of us, and then gradually became clear: a mass projection, it was a man in a black cloak, but his entire face was hidden in the deep shadow of the hood, making it impossible to see his appearance.
"We meet again, Emperors of the Empire...... Oh, of course, this is the first time you've met," the mysterious man's mass projection stood leisurely less than ten meters in front of us, his voice calm as if he was facing not a group of imperial leaders who could destroy an entire civilization in an instant, but a few ordinary people who were not threatening, and then he raised his head slightly, it was still dark under the hood, but I noticed that the other party's eyes were focused on a small figure beside me, "Ah, look who this is?" 7535, it's been a long time, little replicant......"
Visk's body instantly stiffened, as if she was about to lose control, but the next second she regained her composure, and instead leaned over her small body and gently hugged my hand, "Occam, this kind of thing can't anger me anymore. ”
"Oh? Your spirit seems to be stable? It's really gratifying, it's gratifying, and maybe you can appreciate it well...... Well, experience the joy of death......"
The mysterious man said this in a tone that was unpretentiously friendly, and even still carried that ordinary intimacy, which made my vigilance against him even deeper: such an enemy was definitely a hundred times more dangerous than the idiot who would open his teeth and claws to kill and fight at the first moment, he was more like a poisonous snake in the dark, with deadly fangs hidden in the quiet.
"Who is this uncle?" I asked Viska via a psychic connection, and the latter's voice sounded with great disgust: "Occam, he has given himself the title of 'The Honest Man', but in fact he is the most bastard conspirator...... When I was in Azeroth, he was the one who oversaw the construction of the Circuit, but at that time my situation was ......," Viska paused at this point, and then said awkwardly, "I don't know much about this guy other than that, the only thing I know for sure is that Occam is not a good fighter. ”
"What, uncle, can you take off your hat before you fight?" Lilina, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, discussed with the other party without any scruples, "I'm not used to chatting with a clothes rack." ”
The man named Occam suddenly became staggered, and like everyone who deals with us for the first time, it takes a long time to get used to dealing with a large family like us, friend or foe......
I pulled the chaotic Lilina back, quietly looked at the mass projection not far away, and wondered if the other party's body was on the huge circle and fork, and asked, "Is everything your trap?" ”
"How can you say it's a trap?" The tone of the other party was unpretentious and sincere, "I just wrote a script, and then you performed it very cooperatively...... But I really didn't expect you to cooperate to such a point...... Obediently came to destroy the Zerg, obediently restrained by the three clans' tyranny*, obediently gave me time to prepare this little gift...... Finally, I obediently took the initiative to come to this gorgeous tomb prepared for you, and to be honest, if I had a different position, I really wanted to say it...... It was a pleasure to work ......"
Occam's voice was at its most distracted, his mass projection shaking in front of us, fading, and finally disappearing into the air with a sharp roar of energy, while the black "Juggernaut" in the distance ...... No, it should be said that the "Juggernaut Ring" has also gradually changed.
On the holographic projection monitored, its three concentric circles were slowly turning, and the angles between each other were gradually deflected, and a red light gradually emerged from the pitch-black core, as if a black eyeball was covered with bloodshots, and then the entire King's Landing class was shrouded in a very thin gray barrier.
And so it was...... It's the form of punishment of the Gospels," Sandora said with a look of clarity on her face, "Fortunately, she didn't attack rashly just now. ”
As soon as Sandora finished speaking, I began to search through my mind for all the information about this BT spaceship, and finally found the relevant information in a corner where I don't know when I was labeled by my own family as "alien knowledge mortal retreat".
The Gospel is basically the most rebellious defense system created by the Hilling, and is even considered to be an unbreakable barrier except in the face of the army of gods, although the fragility of the King's Landing class is well known, it has such an ultimate defense component, once the Gospel is activated, the King's Landing class can even make it and the entire army around it resist the end of the world
For example, if the final end of our universe is to collapse into a singularity, then once the Gospel is activated, it can directly collapse the universe back - this thing has a strong regularity, and even partially reaches the level of law, it itself is defined as "any threatening indirect law attack will produce the minimum damage", and this minimum damage is an outrageous level 1 - slightly greater than the power of a steel tooth jingle bite, Although the collapse of the universe is a product of the law's push, it is not a law attack in itself.
The Gospel's form of punishment is an extension of this defensive component, a compensation module designed to compensate for the slow activation time of the Gospel, before the Gospel is activated, it will form a force field with slightly weaker defense but extremely obscene effect: 90% of the attack below the arbitrary law is reflected.
If the Imperial fleet had fired all the guns just now, we would have lost more than half of the battle by now.
Now that gray barrier has appeared, it proves that the Gospel has finally completed its long preparation, is completely activated, and it will not bounce any more damage, but we should not try to make even a small hole in the girl
At first, I didn't believe in this evil, and ordered the Imperial Admiral and all the Eternal-class ships' Galactic main guns to launch a saturation fire, but it turned out that the strength of the bug shield was really not covered - the huge energy beam didn't even make a splash of the gray barrier
"Is there any way to break that thing?"
I looked depressedly at the still spinning boat on the hologram, and I felt so angry.
"There are not many ways to fight against the King's Landing, the first is to kill it before its shield is activated, this is the easiest way, even a heavy frigate can do it, but now it is obviously impossible, the second is to attack with the law, no matter how strong the King's Landing-level is, it has not reached the level of pure law armament, its defense system is not high against the law attack, it is only equivalent to an ordinary phantom shield, but now the imperial fleet has only a handful of equipment at the law level, and there is no thing for attacking, The third way is to wait for the other side to attack, the powerful interference during the attack of Genesis will temporarily invalidate the Gospel, and the other side has no defense force, so we can destroy the King's Landing in that instant, but Occam can't have thought of this, and the fourth is ...... Quantity"
Numbers, this is a theoretically feasible approach - as mentioned earlier, the Gospel is something similar to the "Enhanced Damage Definition System", which can define any external attack to a minimum value, but this value is still damaging, well, again, it is equivalent to the power of a clink of steel teeth, then if the number of attacks reaches a certain level, even if they are all weakened to "one", countless ones will add up to enough to destroy the King's Landing.
So now the question arises......
How many bites does Clank need to take to crush a bunch of Juggernaut rings with a radius of two thousand kilometers, bastard
