Chapter 17: A Powerful New Talent - Son of the Stars LV1
There was no air in the cold starry sky, and the fierce shelling could not be heard, but one after another the fire lit up, and the armor of the battleship was torn apart by the flames from the explosion and thrown into the void.
The two frigates alternated back and forth to cover and attract fire, and fought against the attacks of pirate gunboats and destroyers.
After four rounds of continuous bombardment, the destroyer's outer armor was completely shredded, revealing the hull structure.
And the shields of the two frigates were also exhausted and broken under the siege of the enemy.
But the battle did not end there, but became more and more intense, and the two sides did not take a step back as if they had a deep hatred, and attacked frantically.
After five rounds of laser and electromagnetic warheads, only the base hull of the destroyer was blasted out of a huge hole, and the high-temperature ion energy penetrated through the hull structure channel, detonating the internal energy storage room and ammunition depot of the battleship one after another, thus triggering an earth-shattering explosion.
As soon as the destroyer sank, Fang Chen immediately ordered the two scarred frigates to distance themselves.
This is the power of hero data, the worst of the two frigates, the T3 frigate, has been stripped of its armor, revealing a pitted hull structure, which has been pierced in some places.
However, with the blessing of the law of data, as long as the hull value is not depleted, as long as it does not hit the ship's internal ammunition depot, or damage the power furnace, the battleship can still be opened, and the speed is as fast as when it is intact.
As long as the ship's cannons are not damaged, they can continue to be used in combat.
Without destroyers, the remaining pirate gunboats simply could not catch up with the frigates, and could only be slowly eliminated by flying kites.
By this time, Fang Chen could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
This bet won.
Then everything was as he expected, and the remaining nine pirate gunboats could not catch up, and they could not run and run, so they could only be beaten passively, and one by one they were sunk by his concentrated fire.
The destroyer on the other side had to suppress the remaining three frigates on the caravan's side, and it couldn't spare its hands at all.
The remaining three frigates of the caravan did not fight the pirates at all, and the caravan commander probably thought about it, abandoned the previous rigid plan, and circled around the caravan's transport ships, using the transport ships to resist the fire.
Unless all the remaining twelve transports are sunk, there will be no nimble frigates at all.
In this way, the time dragged on until about forty minutes later, when a fleet of destroyers and more than a dozen frigates suddenly rushed out of the distant asteroid belt and rushed straight into the pirate fleet.
Fang Chen also received a message from Xie Shinan and knew that their reinforcements were coming.
What followed was a one-sided slaughter, and the remaining pirates were not as large as the reinforcements, and it was impossible to resist them when the technology level was two or three levels apart.
In just half an hour, the pirate destroyer was sunk and the battle ended.
As soon as the destroyer sank, three transport ships and two industrial ships came not far away, and the industrial ships began to salvage the wreckage and the scattered containers of the four sunken transport ships.
A frigate sailed to two frigates moored not far away and stopped about ten kilometers away.
"Thank you Brother Fang for your help, this is a bounty and hard work!"
On the communication light curtain, Xie Shinan sincerely thanked Fang Chen.
Fang Chen looked at the 150 million star dollars that had been hit on his account, and a smile appeared on his face:
"The boss is magnificent, then I'm welcome."
"You deserve it."
"By the way, we're going to go back to the base first, do you want Brother Fang to go over and sit down?"
"Yes, I'm just going into the asteroid belt to find a place to mine."
"You want to mine? What about your mining ship? ”
Xie Shinan glanced curiously at the battleship's radar, which did not show that there were mining ships nearby.
"Tens of thousands of kilometers away, I stopped a little far from the battle just now."
"Oh!"
An hour later, the scattered cargo had been put away, the two transports that had been sunk were also towed by the industrial ships, and the fleet began to return.
Dive headlong into the asteroid belt, turn left and right inside, and about three hours later, you will come to a huge meteorite in the asteroid belt.
It was a meteorite with a diameter of forty or fifty kilometers, and they built a fixed base on top of the meteorite, with a large number of artillery batteries on the base, and a dozen transport ships and several frigates moored around it.
In the surrounding meteorite group, more than 20 small and medium-sized mining ships were busy working within the scanning range of Fang Chen's radar alone, and from time to time transport ships were seen sailing from the depths of the meteorite belt.
The fleet entered the base, Fang Chen's two frigates were moored at the base anchorage, and a maintenance ship converted from an industrial ship sailed over, stretched out its long mechanical arm and began to repair the damaged hull of the battleship, unloading the tattered armor.
It is worth mentioning that the armor layer of the battleship refers to the armor accessories equipped in the general slot, once the armor layer is broken and torn, if the loss is not large, it needs to be repaired with titanium steel alloy of the same grade.
If the damage is too large to repair, the wreckage will have to be removed, which means that the armor accessory has failed and a new armor accessory needs to be filled in the general slot.
In other words, the extra armor in the universal slot is a consumable.
The two frigates have 2 T5-level medium armor plates, and the unit price is 24 million each, for a total of 48 million.
6 T5 level small armor plates, the unit price is 8 million, a total of 48 million.
5 T3 level small armor plates, the unit price is 2 million, a total of 10 million.
The total replacement is 106 million star yuan, and according to the agreement, Xie Shinan reimbursed him all.
In the end, this battle made a net profit of 150 million.
In addition, what made Fang Chen most pleased was that he had gained a lot of combat experience, which was also the main reason why he had to intervene in this battle even though he didn't have much money, such a big battle had a tenfold bonus, and a large amount of experience made his basic naval skills improve to LV10.
Basic Naval Command Skill LV10: Fleet Speed +30%, Fleet Weapon Damage +20%, Basic Command Ship Capacity 140.
At the same time, Fang Chen saw a new prompt appear in the system log:
"Upgrade your base naval skill to LV10 to get an additional option, please choose one of the following options as your first unique talent within 60 seconds, timed out randomly."
LV10 Option 1: Fleet Speed +10%.
LV10 Option 2: Fleet Weapon Damage +5%, Hit +5.
LV10 Option 3: Fleet damage reduction by 5%.
LV10 Option 4 (Eternal Light Unique Option): Children of the Stars LV1: Ship Speed +100%, Activation Speed +100%, Weapon Damage +100%, Range +100%, Evasion +10, Hit +10, Jump Range +500%, Jump Penetration +5.
When he saw the fourth golden option, Fang Chen's pupils instantly dilated, full of shock.
"This bonus ......."
It's outrageous, he has nothing to say.
The shock was followed by an indescribable surprise.
He had never seen or heard of such a strong bonus, even those powerful psionic ascendants, genetic ascendants, and mechanical ascendants, the bonuses were far from so outrageous.
The key is that this is only LV1, Fang Chen has a clear understanding in his heart, when he raises his basic naval skills to LV20 and LV30, the extra talent of this son of the stars will also become LV2 and LV3, and it will definitely be more perverted at that time.
"Great!"
