Chapter 87 Doomsday (6)
Austin stared blankly at the scene like a disaster drama on the monitor. His hands and feet were cold and his back was numb. The Tiger Shark Wing was over. The entire wing had 18 Tiger Shark-class destroyers and 54 Dogshark-class frigates. Army annihilated.
The mission was not completed, the people were not rescued, and they even risked their own lives. All of this was caused by him, and as the fleet commander, he has an inescapable responsibility.
The remorse and unwillingness turned in his heart, and Austin came back to his senses immediately. As a battle-hardened veteran, he still has the ability to control his emotions. Now is not the time to sigh, preserving the strength of the fleet as much as possible is his top priority right now.
"Robertson, hasn't the engine warm-up finished yet?"
The driving group leader Robertson wiped the sweat on his forehead: "Okay...Okay."
"Then what are you waiting for, start the engine quickly."
"Yes... yes." Roberson responded loudly after glancing at the flashes outside the porthole that were as bright as rainbows.
At the moment of escape, small warships are much more flexible than large ships. When the "Zeus" aircraft carrier and most battleships and cruisers are still warming up and charging, some interceptor ships, special service ships, frigates and other small and medium-sized models The ship has been fully charged and is activating the warp drive, ready to enter the virtual space.
The fire of the 16 propellers at the stern of the "Zeus" aircraft carrier changed, from silver to blue, and the curved force fields began to radiate outward, gradually wrapping the entire hull.
As a giant warship with a body length of more than 700 meters, the zero-element fuel consumed by the "Zeus" to enter the warp state is far more than that of ordinary warships. As for the engine effective period, it is also several times worse.
The blue flames spewed out by the sixteen thrusters were like colorful fireworks trees, instantly igniting the surrounding darkness for dozens of miles. The hull of the "Zeus" trembled slightly, as if one head had just woken up and was shaking off mud spots on its body. wetland predators.
Beside him, a stream of light flashed on the surface of the cruiser hull surrounded by countless stars holding the moon. The curved force field had already opened, and it would take ten seconds to enter the virtual time and space.
The thirty-two Whale Shark-class battleships as the main offensive force, two 1200MM cannon turrets on the bow, two-string triple 420MM electromagnetic railguns, and the rear heavy missile launch array are all put away, and the blue flames shot out from the stern are in the void. Form a streamer matrix.
The geological exploration ship and the Pioneer-class scientific research ship, which are smaller than the Dogfish-class frigate, have entered the virtual space one step ahead of the Thunder Fleet and escaped the danger safely.
Nami's energy burst became more and more intense, and finally, accompanied by a strong flash of light that swept the entire quiet star system, the time bomb exploded, completely turning into a dazzling sea of fire that radiated infinite light and heat.
Stones of different sizes are like infinite bullets scattered in the air on the battlefield, surging towards the surrounding tides, and the violent particle storm spreads out circles of energy fluctuations at the speed of almost light.
The serene star, which has never been arrogant or impetuous, seems to be irritated by these particle streams that carry huge energy. The calm corona region set off one after another flame jets, prominences erupted frequently, and the powerful solar wind spreads one after another into the void of thousands of miles. A stream of charged particles with drastically changing waves.
The magnetic repulsion field of the "Zeus" has long been open, so there is no need to worry about these charged particles. With the passage of time, the curved force field gradually takes shape, and Austin is slowly relieved. If he can bring back most of the ships safely, His Royal Highness Prince It must not be too difficult for him. Because, in the face of the power of the universe, the status of human beings has always been
never changed.
Just like what happened on the bridge of the "God"-class aircraft carrier of the Holy Violet Fleet, Austin received a report with different words but similar meaning: "The warp field is disturbed by gravity, the engine efficiency is reduced, and the navigation aid unit needs to be activated. Only by canceling the gravitational interference can we safely enter the virtual space-time."
"How can this happen? Why is this happening!" Austin growled loudly.
The intelligence officer did not dare to answer, and pointed cautiously to the central monitor. Austin looked up, and a scene appeared on the screen. Nami was like a flame beast whose belly was bursting, spewing all kinds of cosmic substances, while Elizabeth, who originally revolved around it, seemed to be a ruthless and indifferent. The woman who swept away countless "properties" at this critical moment and left her husband and son.
It was the culprit that disturbed the warships' warships under the jurisdiction of the two fleets!
Although it has been more than 200 years since human beings entered the cosmic civilization, in the eyes of some scientists, the technological development in the aerospace field is not satisfactory, especially in warp flight. Strictly speaking, the warp engine developed by humans by deciphering Ipsilon technology is not a warp engine in the full sense, but a castrated version.
First of all, in the process of establishing the warp force field, the spacecraft must be protected from external force interference, form a stable warping reaction, build a space-time bubble, and then enter the virtual space. If you ignore the external force, forcibly build a time-space bubble and enter the virtual space, it may bring unexpected consequences. For example, the amount of warping is inaccurate, causing the position of the spacecraft to be completely different from the destination when it leaves the virtual space, which is thousands of miles away. It may even appear near the stars or in the crust of the planet, directly ruining the lives of all crew members.
Secondly, in the process of constructing the space-time bubble, it is necessary to calculate the compression value according to the distance between the target location and the position of the battleship, and determine the warping amount of the space-time bubble. During the virtual space flight, according to the warping principle, the rear space will push the ship forward. During this period, the warping amount cannot be changed. To put it simply, once the target of the battleship is determined, it cannot stop halfway or change the destination during the virtual space-time flight.
The above shortcomings only exist in the warp engine made by humans. As for the engine carried by the Epsilon spacecraft, it is perfect in comparison. Level 7, reaching a terrifying level of 9.99.
Elizabeth's route of travel was very elegant, so elegant that Austin stood up from the sofa, almost forgetting his aristocratic status, and cursed "BITCH!"
Because she is like a bad woman with two boats, whether it is the Holy Violet Fleet or the Thunder Fleet, they are all within its gravitational influence.
"Navigation team, what are you doing, quickly activate the navigation aid unit, and drag it down, we will all be buried here!"
Dennis, who was in charge of the pilot work, replied with a look of grievance: "General, the auxiliary unit is already in operation, but it will take a certain amount of time to balance the external force on the hull."
After he finished speaking, he muttered in a faint voice: "Zeus, it is an aircraft carrier."
"Huh..." Austin let out a turbid breath and slammed his fist on the armrest of the sofa.
"Report to General, the countless asteroids shot out by the explosion of Nami Star are rapidly approaching our fleet." At this moment, the intelligence officer dropped another heavy bomb.
Austin didn't move this time, but the expression on his face became more and more ugly: "Remind the ships to prepare for the impending shock."
"Yes, General."
(Don't worry, there will be another chapter of the Nami star story tomorrow and it will officially end.)
