Chapter 81: Containment of Ships

The scientific research ship was attacked, but Professor Li and others ignored it, and after simply adjusting the many equipment in the ship that suffered from electromagnetic interference, they actually began to collect and study various data on pulsars while resisting the debuff that was limited by interference at sub-light speed.

They were completely dismissive of the several Danube fleets attacking the research ships, and they paid no attention to the communication requests sent by the opposing ships.

The reason is that even if they suffer from pulsar interference and their sub-light speed is limited, and their ships can barely use less than half of their original speed to sail, their ship speed is still much higher than that of these warships in the Danube.

Moreover, the warships of the Danube Empire are not only low in speed, but even the shipboard weapons are extremely difficult in the eyes of the scientific research ship piloted by Professor Li and others.

The weapon used by the opponent to attack them is an electromagnetic cannon that can accelerate and launch metal projectiles, thus dealing high physical damage to enemy ships in a vacuum, which is very powerful.

Its rate of fire can reach terrifying, infinitely lower than the extreme sub-light speed that is close to the speed of light!

In other space-class civilizations that are not much different from the Danube Empire, when their ships face this kinetic weapon that can strike at the extreme sub-light speed, they can basically only be beaten passively, either resisting hard, or falling directly into the sea of stars.

But such a weapon was in the hands of these Danube warships, and when it was used to attack Professor Li's research ship, it looked like a child holding a toy gun and attacking them inconsequentially.

Extreme sub-light level of attack?

Is it advanced? No.

Backward, how backward!

If their research ship is not interfered with by the electromagnetic radiation of pulsars, its normal conventional speed is almost comparable to the fire rate of the opponent's weapons, and it is easy to dodge such an attack from the opponent's ship.

Even if they suffer from electromagnetic interference and have limited speed, the ship evasion system equipped with their scientific research ship can still effectively avoid attacks at the speed of light or even beyond the speed of light.

The Danube Empire's warships continued to attack the research ship, and the highest damage was only to scratch the ship's external armor, and their weapons hit the ship with frighteningly low efficiency, and the threat to the research ship was minimal.

Therefore, Professor Li and others did not care much about the existence of the other party, but began to study the pulsar in front of them, which caused them a lot of trouble, in order to study the pulsar magnetic field and star data, they also went deeper and deeper into the orbit of the pulsar.

On the other hand, several Danube ships under Sir Carter's command seem to have discovered that their weapons are ineffective in inflicting damage on the alien ship.

This is undoubtedly bad news for them.

They also want to capture the other party's ship, so as to obtain the opponent's ship technology, if they can't effectively hurt the other party, then their calculations will not be in vain?

In the command room of a large battleship nearly five kilometers long, Sir Carter frowned, and he only felt a sense of helplessness as he looked at the alien ship that was getting closer and closer to the pulsar's magnetic field, and getting farther and farther away from the direction of their ship.

"Damn, why can't our weapons hit them." Sir Carter slammed his fist on the podium, looking annoyed.

"No way, sir, the opponent is located in the pulsar magnetic field, and our electromagnetic cannon attacks in this direction will be reduced in accuracy, and the opposing ship seems to be equipped with a very advanced evasion system, which can predict our electromagnetic cannon attack trajectory in advance, and effectively evade our attack ......," the technical staff officer on the side weakly explained.

For the situation in front of them, they only feel a little at a loss.

The act of taking the initiative to attack is undoubtedly having done the other party's wrongdoing.

Now that they have made enemies with a high-level civilization, but they have not been able to achieve their original goal as intended, this is really a big blow to them.

"If we can get close to this ship at a certain distance, our weapons will naturally be able to effectively attack the other side."

"It's a pity that our warship can attack this ship in this direction, it's not easy, if we want to get closer to the other side, we have to risk sailing into the pulsar magnetic field, which will only make our ship also subject to electromagnetic interference, let alone capture this ship, maybe we will have to get in."

The words of the technical staff rang in Sir Carter's ears, and he felt a little harsh.

He watched on the surveillance radar, the alien ship withstood electromagnetic interference, and continued to penetrate into the pulsar magnetic field, the distance between him and them was getting farther and farther away, and the hope of capturing the other party became more and more dim, and he felt uncomfortable.

The attack on the other side was a private order issued by him on the impromptu initiative and using his own authority, and did not represent the collective will of the Danube Empire behind it.

But his actions have already provoked an enemy for the Empire, and he is worried about the harm this enemy will bring to the Empire behind him in the future, and he is worried about what kind of damage it will bring to his power career when other powerful people within the Empire learn of his actions.

"No, we must not let this alien ship go, while the other party is still in the pulsar magnetic field, we still have a chance!" Sir Carter gritted his teeth.

"Immediately gather all the other Imperial warships in the galaxy and strategically deploy around the pulsar magnetic field!"

"Hurry, hurry!"

In their Sakaban system, there are hundreds of warships on standby, but these warships are either displayed in the space port or cruising in the dust cloud outside the system's gravitational well, guarding against the invasion of other civilizations.

The few warships that Sir Carter had previously used to attack Professor Lee's research ship were only a tiny fraction of the hundreds of warships in the system.

Seeing that his own warships alone could not take down Professor Li and their scientific research ship, Sir Carter immediately dispatched other warships to support.

Hundreds of warships, as long as they are properly arranged, can completely arrange a rough encirclement around the pulsar magnetic field.

This encirclement, as long as it works properly, can completely seal off this alien ship within the pulsar magnetic field.

As long as the other party is blocked, a restricted ship can only be manipulated by them in the end.

Hearing that Sir Carter was going to mobilize all the warships in the galaxy to contain this alien ship, the technical staff next to him couldn't help but remind:

"Sir, the transfer of so many warships, according to the imperial decree, needs to be reported in advance."

"Also, the large-scale mobilization of warships will definitely be detected by several other space civilizations near the empire......"

"I can't care so much!" Sir Carter gritted his teeth and said:

"Do you know how much the sub-light speed technology of this alien ship can be obtained for the empire, and how much it can improve the empire's strength?"

"Now, we can't turn back, quick, mobilize the warships immediately!"

"Otherwise, when the other party is out of the pulsar magnetic field, our situation and future will be in danger, take advantage of the present, there is still a chance to take down the other party, don't delay any longer!"

"Well, follow your orders, sir."
