Chapter 1331 The Hessian Quagmire

Falling silently in space is a very exciting thing. You won't hear any sound, and there will be no wind blowing in your face to make you realize that you are rushing towards something quickly, but you will watch the land fall in front of your eyes. My eyes quickly zoomed in, and it changed from a circular arc to a gentle arc, and then quickly turned into a two-dimensional plane very close at hand, and after a shorter period of time, the three-dimensional details on it were revealed, as if mountains were protruding and pressing against me. Come, the lack of physical senses and the 100% visual impact are mixed together, giving people a wonderful illusion: the body tells you that you are safe, and the eyes tell you that you are about to land on your face...

I looked at the alloy land that was approaching rapidly in front of me. At a high altitude, I could barely tell that it was an extremely wide metal ring. But at this distance, it was no different from the surface of an ordinary planet. It was a deep-colored alloy armor. There is a crack as wide and deep as a valley. The crimson light in the crack surges upward in waves like magma surging underground. It is the alienated ghost energy that is providing energy for the Gospel system. This radius is thousands of kilometers. The alloy giant ring is filled with huge power. It provides peripheral "broadcast" for the Gospel and Revelation systems. It is also the terminal guidance component of the Genesis system. I originally planned to bypass this solid obstacle and directly hit the core of the King. But he suddenly changed his mind: perhaps destroying its outer ring would cause enough energy to go berserk and render the King's Lander incompetent. My idea is simple: if possible, keep the core of these super battleships, as they are very useful to the Empire. The bulk of the Revelation and Gospel systems are said to be within that core. Only Genesis is divided into three parts and installed on the three rings of the King's Lander. The key technologies of the Gospels and Revelation we have not yet mastered. As for Genesis - anyway, Tavel already had a lot of information on hand, and she was about to figure it out. It doesn't hurt much if it's destroyed.

My goal is to destroy the outer ring of these King's Lander battleships. Without the weapons and terminal loops, Genesis will no longer be a threat, and the effectiveness of the remaining two systems will be greatly reduced. After this battle is over, we can complete the The undamaged core is dragged back for Tavel to dismantle and play with - of course this is the ideal situation.

I landed heavily on the outer ring...well, you can say it was smashed down, after all, I made a slight mistake when landing: I didn't expect that the King's Lander itself also has gravity, and ignored such a huge size. The thing with a huge density is actually about the same mass as the moon. After crossing the latter's gravitational isolation boundary, I felt like I was being pulled down by a big hand. And at this moment, I am still accelerating stupidly... Everyone knows that I am a person who is a bit slow to react. I can only have a sense of quick thinking and superiority when talking to Sylvia (Bella Villa also jumps out to attack me from time to time) handful).

So I didn’t think of slowing down until everything went dark...

"Um, Chen, are you okay?" A message came from Bingtis, who was preparing for a fight on the high-altitude orbit, "I just saw that you seemed to have landed on your head - did you learn this from Lin?"

"...Just pretend you didn't see it." I replied in a sullen voice, looking down at the familiar outline of the dent under my feet, feeling that I might have gained some weight recently - my cheeks have become a little fatter.

There was a slight vibration under my feet. I turned my head and saw that the metal earth hundreds of meters away behind me was opening up. A large number of sentry guns and warning drones emerged from the hidden launch ports. Then I was confused by these things: the overwhelming ghost world. The energy beams and solid projectiles were almost filling up my shield. But I don’t have time to tangle with these defense devices. It seems that the King’s Lander’s alert sensitivity is higher than expected: a thing with a radius of thousands of kilometers actually noticed that a foreign object the size of dust fell on itself within two seconds. , and judged that this was an intruder. This early warning system was indeed made by Xiling.

I held on to the shield and moved quickly. Moving closer to the energy rift that he saw when he fell, the vibrations under his feet became more and more intense. The alloy land rioted like a volcano group awakening from sleep. Countless hidden ejection channels were opened under the armor plate, and a large number of alerts were displayed. The humans and machines began to try to use numbers to stop the intruders. Things like the King's Lander don't have regular shields. The armor is also very fragile. Before the Gospel came online, it was a target that could be bullied at will - this is what Sandora told me before. But she didn't say there were so many sentries on this thing. But in fact, I should have thought of it a long time ago: with the no-limit style of Xiling's military technicians, they would have to put some bombs in every corner, not to mention that the outer ring of King's Landing is so big, they wouldn't be able to put hundreds of thousands of troops here. Sorry for my reputation.

So for the sake of Xiling's reputation as a military technician, when I finally found an energy entry point that was easier to break through, I was already followed by a large number of warning drones and war puppets like dark clouds. Bingtis was still there. A sarcastic comment was made on the channel: "You are making quite a lot of noise. I can't see you anymore. Get it done quickly. I saw the frigates passing by... Hey, let's not talk nonsense. Let's start the fight. Qianqian helped slow them down - —Sun thief! Eat my mother’s holy storm!!”

I saw a large area of ​​flash suddenly burst out in the dark space above, and the golden curtain of holy light hung down like an aurora. Bingtis and Qianqian were already at war with the frigate group, and I finally found the outer ring. What does the belt’s energy network look like? This will take more effort than destroying the King's Lander battleship in Occam, because last time we just killed the target directly, and this time I plan to capture the "live" ones. I have to understand the energy system inside this huge object. How many veins can be divided to ensure that destroying its outer ring will not trigger a devastating chain reaction. Cutting a human stick is a technical job, and cutting a hula hoop with a radius of thousands of kilometers is not easy. With the firepower of at least one reinforced brigade (fortunately, they are all light firepower), I finally figured out the energy flow in the outer ring, and then Put your own strength into it.

The dark red crystallized energy pipe in front of him was mixed with a hint of black, which was the effect of void erosion. Then this little bit of black expanded rapidly. I felt everything around me begin to vibrate violently, and no sound could be heard in space. But we can see that there are continuous explosions in the distance. The overwhelming security forces around them have finally stopped their indiscriminate bombing. Their superior units should have also been involved in these explosions, or the power of the void is eroding their command. System, in short, these self-disciplined troops fell into a moment of downtime. I took advantage of this moment to rush into space, leaving facial marks on three security drones, six war puppets, and two sentry guns, and then escaped. Encirclement, high in the sky. I look at the results of my work with satisfaction:

On the dark alloy earth, along those red energy veins, continuous explosions are spreading rapidly. Those energy grooves as wide as canyons are like deep knife marks, and the entire ring is disintegrating along these grooves. The Void first overloaded all of the ring's systems to destroy its emergency mechanisms, and then began to destroy its physical body in less than a minute. This giant alloy ring with a radius of several thousand kilometers was beyond recognition. The broken fragments fell towards the core of the King under the influence of gravity. Some of these burning fragments hit the two inner rings that still maintained constant rotation, causing a small and medium-sized explosion. the second impact. If you observe carefully, you can see that the two inner rings of the King have also begun to explode, but the scale is obviously smaller than the outer rings: this is the result of adjusting the power.

finally. After a violent impact across the earth, the outer ring completely disintegrated. It became broken into several parts and exploded in all directions. Small fragments like a torrential rain also fell towards the core at the same time, stimulating a faint flash of light on the surface of the latter. I looked a little worried: don’t destroy the core, it was hard to preserve it...

"Remove! Go to the next one!"

I haven't had time to finish my sigh. He heard Bingtis's voice coming from the spiritual link, and then he was grabbed by the arm and jumped to the sky above another King's Lander battleship. The previous one had been completely disarmed, and the escort formation around it had no value in continuing to fight after losing the core of the fleet.

"It's been delayed for too long," a cold and emotionless voice came from my mind, "There are more and more of those miscellaneous soldiers."

I looked at Qianqian. She stared with a frosty face at the frigate group in the distance that had reacted and was forming a regional joint shield to protect the flagship. The latter quickly disintegrated under her gaze and was crumpled into a ball that kept exploding. The residue, or simply dissipated into ashes all over the sky, noticed my gaze and said four words: "Do it, speed."

I thought to myself that this girl would definitely lock herself in the room again when she got back. Then, before the regional joint shield was completed, she forcibly broke through the defense of the King's Battle Group, and followed the same method to disable the second super battleship. Combat ability.

When I destroyed the third spaceship, I already felt obvious pressure: the enemy forces were on full alert, and the regional joint shields they created were layered to protect the King's Lander, which forced me to use more strength. After consuming these huge energies, it is obvious that I cannot have the endless power like Father God: my void form is almost unsustainable.

The enemy's King's Lander battleship also strengthened the power of the Gospel. I discovered one thing: although the power of the void can penetrate the Gospel in nature, it still requires a lot of physical strength. The situation Sandora said can also be used in On me: The gospel is an indestructible shield, but the hand holding the shield will always get tired. My void power may be an indestructible spear, but the hand holding the spear will also cramp. Father God said to me this: "When you become Before you become a fully mature void creature, mortal mental weaknesses such as 'fatigue', 'sluggishness', and 'looseness' will always be your shortcomings." I knew it when the teachings of these two people rang in my heart. I have to finish the work as soon as possible, because according to experience, when a hero is about to die, he will recall the voices and smiles of his lovers and friends, and then various heroic figures. Now Sandora and Xingchen have appeared in my mind. During the cutscene, I have to get as many as possible before Huang Jiguang and Qiu Shaoyun jump out and then withdraw immediately...

"Are you okay?" After returning to space, Bingtis may have noticed that something was wrong with me. Female gangsters sometimes care about people, "The nose on your head is gone again."

Me: "...The physical exertion is a bit too much, so I can't take care of that. Anyway, I'm almost at my limit."

"This end is about the same." Bingtis said, looking around quickly. This is the sky above the third King's Lander. All around us are filled with broken space debris and "dead" energy vortices that are slowly dissipating. It was obvious that Bingtis and Qianqian had just experienced a fierce battle, and the battle was so fierce that the two could no longer carry it on with their own strength - some of the space debris bore the mark of the Imperial Army. They should be the guards in Qianqian's portable space, and the energy vortex is obviously the remains left by the soldiers brought by Bingtis: the basic units of the protoss' combat are various materialized elemental creatures (in the lower world, these elemental creatures are also Worship as a natural god), but Bingtis's "personal style" is relatively strong, and she rarely brings out her army of spirits. This female gangster prefers to fight with people by herself with bricks and long bows. , but now she doesn’t care so much.

"I'm slightly injured, so it's up to you. I can handle as much as I can." Bingtis' words made me realize the seriousness of the problem: This strong female gangster will never admit that she is injured, so she The minor injury I am talking about now is definitely not an ordinary problem!

I didn’t see any traces of injury on Bingtis’s body, but the body of the protoss seemed to be unable to be judged by common sense, and Bingtis’s face was indeed very bad, with almost no blood at all…well her face had always been like this, I felt a little bit It's hard to concentrate, so we must get more giant ships as quickly as possible. Then he retreated immediately before Harlan completely sealed the space.

When another King's Lander slowly collapsed in front of us, I received a communication from the Imperial Admiral: "Arjun, how is the situation over there now?"

"It's more difficult than expected," we were hidden in a pile of twisted and hot metal debris. We used a chaotic time barrier to temporarily shield everyone from the enemy's locking system. It would be safe for a while. "The escort fleet responded quickly and has strong combat effectiveness. The AI ​​frigates and combat troops in Qianqian's personal space have been wiped out. Bingtis's last wave of divine guards are..."

I looked into the distance. Hundreds of huge and radiant Holy Light Giants were fighting hard in front of the incoming black battleships. These divine guards have no faces, just like the cloud giants rising from the ocean in Norse mythology. They are soulless warriors created by Bingtis with his own extra strength. They are brave and powerful and will fight to the death. However, the enemies they face are no less than gods. After a round of naval gunfire, these nearly 100 meters tall The Holy Light Giant finally collapsed into an interstellar stream of light, leaving only small energy vortices in place.

"Okay, the last wave of divine guards has also been killed. We have eliminated four King's Lander battle groups in total. However, Harlan has formed an almost impenetrable barrier, and he is closing the encirclement. I'm afraid we have to retreat."

"Withdraw," Sandora's voice was decisive. "The results of the battle have been beyond expectations - I didn't expect you to kill the entire King's Lander formation. You have caused enough chaos, now withdraw."

I'm a little bit reluctant, but it seems like this is the only way to go. The only ones who can kill dozens of King's Landers with bare hands are Father God and Sheila. I can't compare with those two monster-level seniors yet. In fact, the three of us who came in and eliminated four battle groups is already a miracle. , so I stretched out my hand to pull Qian Qian, who was a little exhausted, into my arms, and patted Bingtis on the shoulder: "Retreat and let them continue to mess around."

"No problem, but there is a small situation. I'm afraid you have to take two people with you at a time." Bingtis grabbed my arm and pretended to be a bachelor, "I am a wounded person now."

...In short, in the end we withdrew the Imperial Admiral without any danger. Bingtis and Qianqian consumed a lot of physical strength and basically lost their combat effectiveness. Well, I think my situation is slightly better, and the void creatures recover very quickly. But Sandora probably won't let me go out to be a super soldier again.

However, we have achieved the results we wanted: Harlan's trump card is falling into chaos, and the four King's Landers have lost their combat effectiveness, which is a huge blow to the entire formation. The enemy commander is not sure whether such an attack is really over. , so they will focus on strengthening defense in the next battle: this will inevitably affect the pace of Genesis' attack. In this way, the Imperial Army's joint shield will have sufficient room for recharge, and the battle situation is moving towards a decisive blow to the Imperial Army. Tilt in a favorable direction.

"Those Hessian tribes played an unexpected role," Sandora breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the three of us had returned safely, and then quickly returned to the current battle situation. On the tactical map showing the entire war zone, representing the Hessian tribes The gray area is a staggering large area - almost covering the entire periphery, the area is equivalent to more than ten times the size of the Imperial Army and the Fallen Apostles combined, and now these gray areas are still shrinking, covering up at a uniform speed. Xiang Haran's position: This means that they have been charging at full speed from the beginning of the war to the present, without even a slight slowdown. It feels like a scalp-numbing gray tide is engulfing this sector. Generally speaking, Harlan has now devoted half of his troops to dealing with those crazy natives. From the battle zone view, it can be seen that the Hessian fleet closest to the inner layer of the battlefield is constantly being erased by an eraser. Disappearing, but in general, those crazy and fearless fleets are still approaching at a speed of one thread per minute - converted to a speed of tens of thousands of kilometers per minute on the battlefield. Their weapons may be primitive, but now these primitive weapons Like splashing ink on the flank of the fallen apostle, even if each Hessian warship can only survive for one second after reaching the shooting range, they will fire thousands of guns in this second. In this crazy attack method In front of them, even the commanders of the Fallen Apostles will appear to be in a hurry: half of their army and all the King's Landing battle groups have been messed up by the Imperial Army and our "Desperate Assault Trio", and the other half of the army is like this Trapped in the mire of Hessian madness, struggling.

What's more terrible is that they are indeed being killed by mortals: although the battle loss ratio is very different, the fallen apostles are indeed injured by the Hessians. For the proud ones among the fallen apostles, this impact may be greater.

It really is a quagmire: the Hessians are like an endless quagmire, and although slowly, they will bury you at all costs before the quagmire is completely cleared.

"I think there's definitely something wrong with this race," my sister said with a bad expression on her face. "The battle must be resolved quickly, and we can't let them die like this."

Sandora nodded, and after a moment of pondering, she connected to the command link:

"Seventh Fleet, it's your turn."

(Hey, Mom, I suddenly realized that this might be a big war. I originally thought about defeating Harlan’s entire army in two chapters, but then I thought about it and realized that the other side is also a big boss in the Fallen Emperor.) (To be continued.
