Chapter 522: The Chase

The sirens sounded in their ears, and the entire military fleet became nervous, and the astronomical telescopes turned around and began to scan the starry sky ahead.

The students were forcibly transferred to a military warship, and it was a warship responsible for observing and mapping the starry sky - not a complete warship.

Zhang Ping looked at everyone dumbfounded. Until now, Zhang Ping still can't believe it - under attack?!

Yes, under attack! The first time Hong Daqi saw these 'warships', he made a decision: they were attacked.

As for where these sudden warships or spaceships came from, there is only speculation for the time being, and it is not completely certain - well, it is almost certain.

But one thing is certain: the one who comes is not good!

"Maybe it's just a passing ship?" Han Yuxue felt that everyone was making a little fuss.

This time, Gu Yanshan took the initiative to explain: "Xiao Han, this is a vast starry sky, not to mention the traditional route location, what do you think the spaceship suddenly appeared here for?"

Not to mention that these ships seem to be camouflaged.

It should also be noted that civilian spaceships have brightly colored and obvious safety lights, anti-collision lights, signal lights, etc., and even ordinary military warships have them, and the safety lights will only be turned off during a sneak attack. ”

It's still too far away to see the details of the ship. However, due to the fast flight speed of the spacecraft and the obvious light on the surface, some blurry photos can still be seen through the powerful astronomical telescope system on the battleship.

After processing, it can be seen from these photos that the "battleships" that came over were camouflaged.

The reason why it is almost certain that it is a warship, rather than an ordinary commercial or civilian spaceship, is because of the speed at which the ship is advancing.

When the speed of the spacecraft exceeds 0.1 times the speed of light, it may rub against the thin particles in the starry sky, interstellar dust, etc., and emit a faint light. Above 0.2 times the speed of light, it is noticeable.

The average civilian spacecraft can only withstand a safety limit of 0.1 times the speed of light at most. These tiny dusts will continue to pierce the ship's hull like needles, making the ship's hull loose like rotten wood.

If you dare to travel at a speed of more than 0.1 times the speed of light for a long time, it is none other than a battleship.

In the desolate starry sky where there is no shipping route, a fleet suddenly appears, without advance notice, let alone signal lights, etc., the intention of these spaceships is self-evident!

Han Yuxue suddenly realized, silently lying on the telescope, looking at the battleships in the distance: "According to the light of friction, there are 3 battleships that are the brightest and 12 that are relatively bright, are there 15 battleships?" ”

Everyone looked closely, but the distance was too far away, but they couldn't observe much.

But if you look closely, you can find that this is not 15 warships, but 5 large + 22 medium + 60 small, a total of 87 warships, but all the battleships form strings, and the spaceship in front leads the flight, splitting the interstellar dust, etc.; The ships behind had less resistance, and almost a little acceleration was enough to catch up.

Of course, taking into account the scale of the starry sky, the forward speed of the battleship, etc., the distance between the front and rear of the spacecraft can reach five or six hundred kilometers.

A spaceship can be followed by 4~6 ships.

But because the spaceships in front broke through the interstellar dust, etc., the spaceships behind had no friction, and these spaceships even had the lowest energy protection layer turned on, silently.

And from a distance, only 15 ships can be seen at the top.

In comparison, the military side has 18 ships, as well as two captured comet-class warships, and a magic weapon warship.

It seems that the other party is a little self-conscious.

However, Hong Daqi, who was in charge of the commander-in-chief, was very cautious, and while he asked people to continue to observe the target, he quietly changed the direction of the flight and notified the rear to greet him.

Flying in deep space, the 'Star Fortress' is a huge planet with a diameter of 30,000 kilometers, and it is a complete interstellar battle base with more warships there.

It's a pity that this fortress is too far away, at least farther than the battleships that are rushing in frantically.

Compared with everyone's confusion, Zhang Ping quietly looked at the starry sky map.

Starfortress, five billion kilometers away, on the edge of a star system. A starfortress is a superplanet with a diameter of 30,000 kilometers, and such a planet cannot enter the star system.

Once you enter a star system, or even get too close to a star, the strong gravitational pull will take effect, and the planet will most likely not be able to escape the gravitational pull of the star system. In severe cases, it will even collide with the planet and be completely destroyed.

As for the fleet, which is coming at a distance, it is about three billion kilometers, and the situation is not good.

Considering that there are only 18 warships on his side, and the other two captured warships are all prisoners and important witnesses, not to mention Zhang Ping's friends, after experiencing so many things, these are all good seedlings of future earth immortals; So Hong Daqi made a decision when I started: a strategic shift.

Anyway, with the powerful interstellar fortress on your back, as long as you drag the time up, the victory is your own after all.

In addition, it is taboo for soldiers to rush back in a daze when they are attacked. If you can, try to delay as much time as possible, watch the other person, and then look for opportunities to fight back.

The fleet began to turn.

However, the flight direction of each spacecraft is not in a straight line, but constantly ups and downs and spirals. This is a very basic transfer technique.

As the fleet shifted direction, the pursuing fleet also reversed direction.

The unknown fleet, which was bleeding suddenly, began to slow down, and the light on the surface began to fade, gradually disappearing into the dark starry sky, undetectable.

The vast starry sky is like an endless night; Spaceships are like mosquitoes flying in the night sky.

Once the ship goes into silence, turning from a firefly to a non-emitting mosquito, the ship crashes and hides in the endless darkness, which is only very difficult to observe.

But before the enemy fleet completely disappeared into darkness, everyone saw the other side turn. This alone is enough to conclude once again: the comer is not good.

The enemy's fleet could no longer be observed, and the fleet could only continue to advance and accelerate.

At this time, the speed of your own fleet is far from reaching a safe speed - the so-called safe speed is a relative speed.

In the Azure 3 system, those escaping ships are safe speeds as long as they accelerate to a speed that the earth immortals can't catch up.

Now, considering that the enemy's ships are traveling at more than 0.1 times the speed of light, the tentative safe speed is 0.1 times the speed of light.

The battleship accelerated wildly, and the tail flame in the rear was bright and gorgeous.

In contrast, the pursuing enemy ships seemed to have fallen into complete silence. Their engines were maintained at a low level, and there were no bright flames that could not be detected.

In fact, when a starship enters a silent state, it can emit high-temperature and high-pressure air, or dry saturated steam, etc., as a reaction force. As long as the temperature of the air or steam is not more than 1000°C, there is generally no luminescence.

It's just that now the fleet needs crazy acceleration, needs to accelerate the safe speed, and needs to escape and buy time, so it can't care about hiding. The only way to do this is to move forward in a curve.

In the vast starry sky, the two fleets are more than two billion kilometers apart, and they start a crazy chase mode.

About 15 minutes later, in the vast starry sky on the side, a spot of light suddenly appeared, count carefully, 15.

The pursuing ships began to speed up; Or rather, the ships completed their U-turn and began to accelerate.

Zhang Ping observed the whole process, but found a question: "The other party has just turned, why should he enter a state of silence?" It's inefficient, isn't it? ”

Fang Shilu stood next to Zhang Ping and said calmly: "It is very likely that this is done for secrecy. There must be more than 15 of them! There may be more ships hidden in the rear. So when they turn to make a U-turn, they need to go into a state of silence. ”

Fang Shilu said as he used spells to condense a fleet model and explain it to Zhang Ping and his friends.

Seeing this, Zhang Ping nodded slowly, "I see!" ”

Before the words fell, Zhang Ping had already begun to turn the telescope on the spacecraft, wanting to observe the starry sky.

However, here is an infrared star, the light is dim, more than three billion kilometers away, the light is already faint and imperceptible; In addition, the opponent's spaceship was intentionally hidden, and Zhang Ping did not find out how many spaceships the other party had.

However, through careful observation, Zhang Ping still vaguely saw a strange phenomenon: behind a large spaceship, followed by a series of small spaceships, Zhang Ping had already observed a three-year-old spaceship—in fact, three faint points of light.

This point of light is reflected by the light of the surrounding engines.

There was a scene of crazy chase in the starry sky; However, for Zhang Ping, the situation is not good.

The pursuer, the initial velocity is strong, and the acceleration looks strong as well;

On Zhang Ping's side, the initial velocity is smaller, and the battleship accelerates as a whole, and it doesn't feel as good as the other party.

Zhang Ping observed through the telescope and entered the data into the computer, and got the acceleration data of the other party: 123g!

Look at their own acceleration, barely reaching 106g - the two captured spaceships, as well as the refining magic weapon spaceship, are dragging their feet! Especially the two ships of the captives.

These two ships cannot be lost. In fact, up to now, everyone has basically guessed: this fleet that suddenly appeared must be the Lan family, and the purpose is to destroy the certification or something.

Of course, if the military warship is accidentally destroyed in the process, it will be ...... Who knows!

Anyway, the fleet came, without any signs. It's a big deal to say that it's a pirate - there are pirates in the Maso Garda civilization, and there are other pirates what.

The fleets of both sides accelerated wildly, and the pursuing fleet became brighter and brighter - the speed of the pursuing fleet had exceeded 0.15 times the speed of light.

At this time, the speed of the fleet on Zhang Ping's side had just accelerated to 18,000 kilometers per second, about 0.06 times the speed of light.

The opponent's speed is high and the acceleration is fast, and the distance between the two sides is reduced at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

The computer has already given the data: 1 hour and 42 minutes, the other party can chase after it.

In such a war, Zhang Ping and all his friends could only watch quietly, and they couldn't help at all. The only thing that can be done is to adjust the telescope and lock on to the target.

Fortunately, the use of telescopes, etc., Zhang Ping and his friends are trained and more experienced, and they have a lot of fun.

However, watching the light of the enemy ship become brighter and brighter, and watching the distance between the two sides getting closer and closer, everyone's hearts gradually became nervous.

In the frantic chase, Wang Lele's 'little' classmate couldn't help but quietly lean towards Zhang Ping's side, with a look of anger and nervousness: "What's the use of these guys even if they kill us, the video materials of the captives have already been sent to the fortress, and the fortress has already sent the information to the country." ”

Zhang Ping said while controlling the telescope: "Who knows what these guys think." ”

In fact, Zhang Ping is really a little clear: with the ability of the lawyer team of the Deep Blue Group, if there is no witness, only the video materials, they can definitely get an acquittal for the Deep Blue Group; It may even be possible to accuse Zhang Ping and others of false accusations and falsification of evidence.

In this high-tech era, in this era of wonderful means of cultivation, video materials can only be used as evidence!

Only real witnesses can be regarded as real witnesses if they have undergone strict legal testing.

Among his friends, Zhang Ping felt that he had the most right to speak about the law: his own team of lawyers was struggling with relevant personnel and demanding huge compensation.

It's just that Zhang Ping didn't explain, and there is another reason: I always feel that this Lan family is not simple! In this kind of situation of dispatching a fleet to attack warships and troops, even if there are no loopholes in the law, the Lan family will inevitably encounter an all-round investigation by the state afterwards.

Under normal circumstances, of course, everyone talks about the law; But when it comes to fundamental issues such as national security, the 'relevant departments' will tell you why the flowers are so red. The law is meant to protect the people, not a tool for criminals to defend themselves.

After continuing the frenzied chase for more than an hour, the distance between the two sides is already less than a billion kilometers, and the speed is accelerating and getting closer.

Zhang Ping turned his telescope and observed another fleet in the starry sky; The fleet is very distant, roughly estimated at 3.5 billion kilometers away.

Apparently, this is a rescue fleet taking off from Starfortress; What is even more obvious is that the fleet is most likely too late.

Sure enough, after another half an hour, the fleet pursuing in the rear finally approached, and the distance between the two sides was no longer as good as 3 million km.

At this moment, the speed of the pursuing fleet reached almost 1.5 times the speed of the fleet where Zhang Ping was located.

Through the binoculars, the photo even vaguely saw that under the energy protection layer in front of the pursuing fleet, there was a deck open, and a thick electromagnetic cannon barrel, quietly extended, and the electric light on it flickered.

At this time, the distance between the two fleets is less than 3 million kilometers, and with a telescope, you can clearly see those electromagnetic cannons that are frantically accumulating energy, including main guns, secondary guns, laser cannons, and particle cannons.

Zhang Ping's face changed.

3 million kilometers, the hit rate of the electromagnetic cannon will be terrifying; As for laser cannons and particle cannons, the hit rate will be higher.

Just thinking about it, the laser cannon exploded first - because of the nature of the laser cannon, when you see the light, it means that you have been concentrated.

So what Zhang Ping saw was: he only saw the light of the laser cannon flickering, and then the energy protection layer in front of the spacecraft began to tremble.

The laser pulse lasted less than a second, but before the energy shield could regain calm, a large rotten, golden, swirling light flew in.

Unlike the laser cannon, the particle cannon is generally 0.9 times the speed of light, and the ultra-high temperature and ultra-high pressure plasma and particles it emits have far more attack power than the laser cannon;

But at a distance of 3 million kilometers, it is already within the range of attack. It's just that after 3 million kilometers, the diameter of the 'particle cannon''s pillar of light has expanded from half a meter to 10 meters - which means that the energy cannot be kept compressed, and the unit attack power is reduced.

But what is even more frightening is that at a distance of 3 million kilometers, everyone finally saw the true number of enemy ships: more than 80 warships, nearly 90!

Zhang Ping only saw a colorful storm of light landing, enveloping the four spaceships in an instant. Only seeing the surface protection of these four spaceships did they continue to tremble, and the spacecraft turned and circled in place under Hong Daqi's sharp reprimand and command, and instantly got out of the attack range of the particle cannon.

The beams of the electric particle cannons flew into the starry sky, but they didn't disappear—they seemed to be endless, endless, like a long whip sweeping across the void.

Compared to the laser's 'pulse' mode, and compared to the electromagnetic gun's physical cannonball mode, the particle cannon is more like a compressed solar storm. It can be continuous – only the nuclear island part needs to provide the plasma; The power of the particle cannon comes from high temperature and voltage, and it is also a way to use pure energy.

Because the particle cannon can be endless, the enemy ships will use this characteristic to attack Zhang Ping's warship.

But there is a little bit that particle cannons are similar to laser cannons, pure energy attribute attacks, want to cause huge damage and want 'time accumulation'.

The power test of both is what the output damage is in 0.02 seconds. However, the ship is always moving forward, constantly changing, and it is a bit reluctant to focus on a target and complete the 0.02 second focus time.

I saw that the battleship surrounded by particle cannons rolled out of the attack lock, but the strength of the surface energy protection layer was reduced to less than thirty percent, but the battleship was intact.

As long as the battleship is intact, the energy protection layer can be quickly restored - it is a problem of multiple energy output points on the nuclear island.

However, this pride and ease did not last long.

But soon, the electromagnetic cannon exploded.

The cannon's shells are velocity, barely 0.1 times the speed of light - not counting the ship's initial velocity. Anyway, the two fleets are flying in the same direction, and the initial velocity of the fleet can barely be ignored.

A wave of electromagnetic cannon shells was fired, which carried electric light at first, but the electric charge was quickly released, and the electromagnetic cannon shells were invisible to the naked eye. Not even the instruments and equipment can be seen.

All electromagnetic cannon shells, almost all have a stealth coating.

I can't see it, but I know the horror of the electromagnetic cannon. The more I can't see it, the more panicked I become. There was a faint cold sweat oozing out of Zhang Ping's back.

About a minute later, the first batch of electromagnetic cannon shells arrived - Zhang Ping and the others could not see the electromagnetic cannon, but they could see the results caused by the electromagnetic cannon.

A military warship more than ten kilometers away suddenly had three more holes. A large amount of debris and air poured into the void.

Three holes ran through the hull, and one of the holes seemed to hit the keel, so that the battleship, which was accelerating, suddenly 'broke'!

There was no sound in the void, but the ship could be seen bending and shattering as it accelerated. The acceleration of the engine becomes the 'boost' that breaks the spacecraft.

Ten seconds later, a spaceship 'broke', and a large number of debris, debris, people, etc., were thrown into the void!

However, this is just the beginning!
