Chapter 569 Veto and Stasis Ball

Although the stasis ball is similar to the Prophet in terms of model, its battlefield positioning and capabilities are quite different.

The Prophet is a powerful air support unit with good attack power and flexible maneuverability. It is widely used in battles to slaughter farmers. The stasis ball is completely different. Although it is also a support unit, it is a small ground drone like a mechanical sentinel. It has a passive skill "Static Light" and an active skill "Stand".

In terms of composition, there are 3 major components.

1: Energy core: stasis ball has a built-in small Catherine crystal, which can absorb space free energy and store it in the crystal like a "protective battery", which is used to provide stasis ball with the energy needed for action and combat.

2. Force field generator: The multi-purpose force field generator equipped with the stasis ball can use the energy gathered by the Kedarin crystal to create a small anti-gravity field like a detector, which can be lifted with a small amount of energy The not-heavy body obtains a suspended posture and is suitable for all-terrain operations. At the same time, like a mechanical sentinel, it can transform the burst of energy into a small, impenetrable barrier to block, block, or concentrate the attack of enemy forces.

3. Stasis light: Kaydarine crystal can adjust the phase of stasis sphere energy with external oscillating light path, and then converge into high-energy pulse rays. This beam can not only cause energy damage to the target, but also create a small-scale gravitational force Chaos field, reducing the target's movement speed and attack speed.

Judging from the above characteristics, the role of the stasis ball on the battlefield is similar to that of the human unit "Marauder", but with stronger attack power and mobility, it can also be used to deal with air targets, and it also has the "strength" of a mechanical sentinel. "Field" skill, which can split and surround the enemy's troops. Gain battlefield advantage.

If the mechanical sentinel is a defensive auxiliary role in the battle, then the stasis ball is an offensive auxiliary role. The two are combined together, with "Guardian Shield" + "Force Field" + "Static Light" The combination of skills will definitely be a nightmare for the opponent.

Then there are the vetoers. When he moved the mouse to the veto, he was surprised, because the cost of the veto is much higher than that of the mechanical sentry and the stasis ball. It needs 150 crystals, 250 gas, and takes up 3 population.

This unit head, which was removed during beta, resembles a mechanical sentinel. However, there are golden wings like flying wings on both sides, and the ends of the wings are dark blue fins. Its torso does not have a ball of energy like a mechanical sentinel, but a fishbone structure, with only a ring-shaped energy core at the tail.

When Tang Fang noticed the skill list of the vetoer. Finally figured out why vetoers are so expensive.

It has more skills than the mechanical sentry, with 5 powerful skills of "force field", "vacuum", "illusion", "anti-gravity", and "molecular displacement".

Needless to say, "force field",

The same as the "force field" of mechanical sentry and stasis ball.

"Vacuum" can make the units in the target area unable to use any energy-consuming skills.

"Illusion" does not need to be explained, it is the same as the mechanical sentinel and high-level templar skills.

"Anti-gravity" is similar to the "graviton beam" of the Phoenix fighter, which can lift buildings or units into the air and lose their ability to move and attack.

"Molecular Displacement" endows the Veto with a powerful attack ability, similar to the flying dragon's ejection attack, when the skill is turned on. Can make psionic bullets bounce up to 10 times between units of the same type.

In terms of composition, the veto has 5 major components.

One, Psionic Barrage: The Veto is different from the Disintegration Ray of the Mechanical Sentinel. It uses granular psionic bombs to kill the target. This kind of nether energy bomb is composed of many lattice molecules, with a built-in computing unit. After hitting the primary target, it will burst out nether energy to generate a phase shift, and bounce between multiple targets until the nether energy stored in the lattice molecules is exhausted. do.

two. Nanocore: The Veto possesses an advanced computing system, with processing units distributed among numerous nanoscale mechanical brains. Form a thinking circuit that connects the Cadarine crystal filled with psionic energy at the tail and the veto body, so as to control its own energy and matter to fight.

three. The power of the veto: As the signature ability of the veto, by overloading the psionic energy filled with the core of the Cadarin crystal, it instantly creates a "vacuum" in a small area to limit the target's energy utilization and conversion rate. This "vacuum" is like being enchanted, and all the previous intense energy reaction processes will become tepid. The root cause is that psionic energy has changed the environment of the target area. The "vacuum" created by the vetoes is not a vacuum in the conventional sense, but based on a quantum vacuum. The originally fluctuating energy sea in the target area is suppressed and imprisoned, making it impossible for the targets in the area to use the original means to stimulate their own energy.

Fourth, the full-phase projection device, the veto can scan specific targets, or use various data of protoss units in the database to convert light into solids, and create three-dimensional replicas of creatures, vehicles, aircraft, and even buildings . Although each replica is not durable, it can withstand a certain degree of blow. The purpose of creating these lifelike illusions is to make the enemies of Aiur think that the army lineup is stronger than it is, and the other is to protect the lives of the protoss.

5. Force field system: The Veto's force field system is divided into two modules, one of which is the force field used by the "Mechanical Sentinel", which can block, block or gather energy by converting energy bursts into small, unbreakable barriers The attack of the enemy troops, the bulky creatures or machinery can disintegrate the cohesion of these translucent force fields, but ordinary soldiers and combat vehicles can only be reduced to protoss particle disruptors, disintegration rays, thermal energy ray guns and purification rays to be slaughtered lamb. Second, the anti-gravity module, which is more powerful than the stasis ball, allows the Veto to fire a powerful graviton beam at the target, completely neutralizing the target's weight to lift it into mid-air, disrupting its ability to move.

Undoubtedly, "Vetator" is a more powerful "magic unit" than "Static Ball" and "Mechanical Sentinel". If one of the former two is an attack auxiliary unit and the other is a defensive auxiliary unit, then "Vetator" is a comprehensive auxiliary unit, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the most powerful auxiliary drone of the Protoss.

Needless to say, the powerful role of "force field" in war, and "illusion", "anti-gravity" also has the Phoenix fighter as an example.

Its unique abilities are "molecular displacement" and "vacuum".

"Molecular Displacement" provides powerful attack power for the Veto itself, and "Vacuum" is more bt. In a way similar to High Templar's "Energy Feedback", but it's an area effect.

Stasis balls, vetoers, mechanical sentries, golden beetles, colossi, detectors, teleportation prisms...

An army of drones is slowly taking shape.

Tang Fang still remembered that he saw an upgraded version of the detector called "Giant Eye" in the StarCraft battle before, but he didn't know if it would appear in the production menu of "Mechanical Table" in the future, of course. There is also a clone machine. In fact, the carrier-based interceptor of the aircraft carrier is also a drone...

Unexpectedly, this little Star Shuttle not only expanded Tassadar's "Gantriso" in an extremely funny form, but also unlocked "Static Ball", "Soul Hunter", and "Vetator" Units removed in three games.

Although he has high-speed jump units such as the Hercules transport plane and Behemoth in his hands, when the "Morning Star Foundry" is completed in the future, it is bound to have intersections with various forces, and he cannot do everything by himself. Necessarily rely on Grant, Corey Sr., Johnny, etc. to equip them with vehicles with high warp levels.

The warp speed level of the Hercules transport aircraft is similar to that of the "Star Shuttle", but it is large in size and has no means of protection, even if it is forced to install some light weapons. It is far less safe than the "Star Shuttle" equipped with a small general-purpose position generator, not to mention that Emma can optimize its performance, so the "Star Shuttle" has a high value.

A few minutes later, he got off the shuttle and told the machine gunners on standby to drive the "Star Shuttle" into Behemoth's abdomen for a while, then left the launch pad and walked to the central unit of the general's mansion. He had one more important thing things to deal with.

Medelev was also held in an underground cell in the Central Unit.

…………

When Tang Fang led the coalition forces of the people, Chinese and Gods to attack "Mubarak". In the deep space of Ayalos-Koplin-Slandal, a wandering asteroid flying at a low speed in the deep space is also staging an offensive and defensive battle in the void.

Nicholson Pan didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. It can be said that it is the news of the world, and it came so fast. It was like a torrential rain coming from the sky, which caught people off guard.

At the Hannibal Pirates Space Station, the leaders of the No Man's Land Pirates toasted to celebrate the scene is still vivid, as clear as yesterday.

Albert's silence, and the tequila in his hand, still lingered in his mind like a spell.

The rudeness and boldness of Hannibal are mixed with the deliciousness and spiciness brought by the mutton and chive flower sauce. Impressive.

When you think of Boyle Ben, you think of his beard. I remembered that he was in his thirties and hadn't married yet, like a fat and strong daughter like a sow.

And Rommel. The two beauties he hugged left and right were now lying naked on the big bed in the commander's office not far from the combat command room, which can accommodate 5 people to rest.

The ridicule towards Tang Fang and the ridicule towards Byron are still lingering in his ears. He even took out a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth as soon as he finished breakfast, he was still thinking about the situation of "Dilal". Did the kid surnamed Tang sleep soundly last night? Will Byron be as irritable and disgusting as if he ate a fly? Also, what happened to Stephen? Su and Chen Jian? Is it guilt? Or blame yourself? If it was him, I'm afraid he would have raised his hand to feed the two of them with big mouths.

Everything is so clear and real, like a close-up shot in a movie, full of life and art.

Nicholson was a pirate...a pirate chieftain, but he never considered himself a rough man, on the contrary, he considered himself a refined scholar...a refined scholar who was not a literati.

Even though he hasn't read many books, and he is with a group of pirates who lick their blood and are full of women except money, he always picks out a few classic literary films in his spare time to carefully ponder the philosophy of life and thoughts in them. Emotions, such as "The Pianist on the Sea" and "The Shawshank Redemption" many years ago, and "The Fall of the Star Alliance" and "I, Morris Slave" in modern times.

He thinks he is very special, different from other pirates, he is a literary and artistic pirate leader with connotation, talent, and thoughtfulness, unlike Hannibal, Rommel, and Boyle, who are all rough People, barbarians.

Just like the name he gave to the pirates --- Black Pearl, it is many times more elegant than Rommel's "Cobra", and it is also very loud. Some people call it sissy, it's just fart.

And Hannibal Sheen the sheep herder. How stupid would it be to use your own name as the name of the pirates? How uneducated!

He believes that the gap between the two sides is not limited to the level of education, but also in the way of life.

Take the two women lying on his bed as an example, so what if they were used by Rommel? As long as he likes, the two women are willing to serve him for the rest of his life. That's enough, why worry about the past? People always live in the present, not in the past, so they must learn to forgive and maintain a forgiving heart.

Nicholson felt that only a smart person like Albert deserved to sit on an equal footing with him and talk about wine. As for the others, heh... He felt contempt from the bottom of his heart.

Some people are like this. For the sake of profit, they would rather be a person who is torn apart by society.

Like Nicholson, killing is work. Being good is life.

This may seem contradictory, but it is not contradictory. There are many, many such people.

When Byron led the "Apollo" pirates to the door, Nicholson could only reluctantly change from a good guy back to a pirate leader, into a vicious dog with bared fangs, barking and fighting with all his strength. roar.

"How did they find the door?"

He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure it out at all. A low-speed wandering asteroid in deep space is not like those space stations that rely on star systems, it will not stay in one place. And can artificially change the flight speed and course, it is very suitable to be used as the base of the Pirates, because unless positioning equipment is placed on it. Otherwise it is difficult to track.

After returning from Hannibal Xin's space station, he immediately ordered his team members to activate the booster module and changed the course of the asteroid. Why was it still discovered? Why!

Of course, he wouldn't ask Byron. Even if he asked, Byron would not tell him that this was a gift from Miss Liliatta of the Bahamut Pirates to the "Morning Star Forge".

Originally, Bahamut wanted to do it himself. However, Captain Tang went on an expedition to "Mubarak", and he felt that it would not be good to wait in "Dilal". So I led my men out to exercise. Anyway, there is the 44th Fleet stationed in my hometown. Doves occupying the magpie's nest is disgusting, but on the other hand, they can help watch the house, play a guest role in the nursing home, or watchdog... Anyway, they are happy to guard where they are.

This kind of treatment has never been seen in the history of pirates, and it is a big capital to say it.

As an Ipsilon command ship, "Quan Angel" is not much larger than the "Morning Star", but as a command ship that can enhance the combat effectiveness of the entire ship, it is equipped with an enhanced universal position generator, shield The intensity is much higher than that of the "Morning Star".

The fleet of the "Apollo" pirates did not appear directly near the asteroid, but caught up from behind, and then attacked the patrol fleet of the Black Pearl pirates and the pirate camp on the asteroid.

Since the warships of the "Apollo" pirate group are of various types and belong to conventional warships, they are far inferior to those rare gadgets in Tang Fang's hands. The patrol fleet discovered their existence before the battle started, and reported to Xiao Xiao as soon as possible. Nicholson on the planet.

The Black Pearl Pirates have 223 warships of various types, and more than 30 old warships, as well as some non-combat ships such as engineering ships, tug ships, and cargo ships. In addition, more than 100 space-based defense facilities, large and small, are parked in the military facilities hidden under the asteroid formation, which can be lifted into the air with the help of ground facilities such as catapults and push platforms to counterattack the invading enemy.

In fact, there are some hidden and non-hidden anti-air weapons distributed on the surface of the asteroid, including anti-aircraft missiles, close-in rapid-fire guns, rail guns, and even several heavy laser launchers that can threaten Tomahawk-class cruisers. He has high hopes, and believes that the inherent defense facilities of the base camp, with 223 warships, relying on wandering asteroids to guard against danger, is enough to resist half of the conventional fleet of the Covenant Navy.

In terms of "Dilal", Byron's "Apollo" pirate group has less than 500 warships. Without the "Morning Star" and biological warships participating in the battle, it is impossible for Byron's more than 400 warships to take down his asteroid.

With the dilapidated warships of the "Apollo" pirate group, plus a group of mobs, can the combat effectiveness be compared with the regular navy? Obviously not, since half of the naval fleet would have to smash their front teeth to take down his asteroid, let alone a pirate group composed of more than 400 warships?

Not to mention smashing the front teeth, even if Cyclops smashed his egg yolk, he wouldn't want to chew on the hard bone of the wandering asteroid. In the end, he couldn't bear the loss and retreated angrily, leaving a laughingstock for nothing.

In this regard, Nicholson is very confident.

The Apollo Pirates were no longer the first-rate pirates with more than 1,500 warships in their peak period, but now they can only be second-rate --- whether they are on Albert or Byron.

He thought so, and then he was really slapped in the face.

The number of battleships of the "Apollo" pirate group led by Byron was one more than he knew, um, there was only one, but it was this one that cost him his life.

He didn't care when the 260-meter-long warship appeared on the radar indicator, and he still didn't care when the ground-caliber dual orbital cannon on the asteroid blasted two flames at the target outside the visual range.

Because the 260-meter-long battleship may be a seal-class heavy interceptor ship of the Sulu Empire, or a heavy crossbow-class heavy-duty assault ship of the Star Alliance, or a ranger-class special service ship of the Phoenix Empire. (to be continued)
