Chapter 23 1 Attack

It...why does it know this?

Lin's battleship looked at the object approaching in the distance. This object was almost identical to the one I saw last time, like a huge coral skeleton.

But why did it come over without being attracted this time? Could it be that it was just wandering nearby and stumbled upon Lin's battleship coming, so it came here?

I'm afraid not so...

Perhaps, it has been detecting this side, because there are a lot of scattered things here.

There are a large number of 'eyes' on the body of the warship, some eyes can see all angles, some eyes are used to see a long distance, and some eyes are used to see nearby objects.

They can also see very small things.

In fact, on the way Lin came, she had already seen a lot of this kind of thing...a strange spherical object.

Their diameter is about five centimeters to ten centimeters, and they are scattered in large numbers in the surrounding void. Each sphere is gray, and has a small red dot on the surface.

These things appeared shortly after Nemo's battleship was destroyed, and they have been floating here, seemingly incapable of movement.

Pom Pom has caught some of these things to test. This thing is basically made of metal, but the red objects inside are similar to crystals.

It just looks like a crystal, and the composition of this material is still unknown.

But it may have the ability to observe... Lin thinks that after destroying the battleship, she sprinkled this kind of thing on this place to monitor this area. Why did it do this?

Probably because it knew two phantoms had survived. So feel like there will be something to save them. So wait there.

Maybe it's waiting for the chance to sneak attack another battleship... but Lin actually doesn't know what it's thinking.

"It's so narrow here..." "It feels completely different from what you see outside..."

At this time. The two phantoms have entered the battleship, which is very crowded for them, but this is of course, because there is no space for the phantoms in this battleship, most of them are internal organs and ships obtained from the spiral creatures. composed of ship structures.

where they can stay,

There is only a small space about ten meters in diameter.

However, Lin can show them what's going on outside.

"That thing appeared again?" In the armor worn by the two virtual people, a signal was suddenly received. Their helmets show the view outside...

The battleship Lin was originally a battleship of the virtual people. Lin did not destroy some of the previous video devices and communication devices, so they could be manipulated to send messages to the virtual people.

"Flee! Get out of here!" Nemo and another Void called hurriedly.

"I won't set off until I destroy it." Lin gave the two imaginary people a simple answer.

At the same time, the huge coral-like object in the distance is already very close, about 100,000 kilometers.

This time, Lin was able to see its appearance more clearly. It was almost the same size as last time, with a diameter of one kilometer. The surface is covered with a metal-like structure...

Based on last experience, it attacked entirely with impact. Then just...

‘Beep—! ! ! ’

The head of the battleship opened instantly, and a flickering beam of light illuminated the dark void, directly hitting the head of this 'coral'...

Under the soundless explosion, the beam of light blasted a large hole on the surface of the coral, and one of its contact branches was also blown off, turning into fragments and scattered around.

However, this piece of coral was hardly affected and continued to rush towards this side at the previous speed.

It's like the intelligence it got before, that time even if it was blown up by 70%, it would still keep going.

In this case, there is no need to waste energy...

"Wow! It's a laser!" "Hurry up and smash it! Blast it!"

Inside the battleship, the two phantoms suddenly shouted excitedly inside like excited cubs, but Lin did something that surprised them.

The battleship stood still, motionless.

The two virtual people watched each other getting closer and could not help but exclaimed: "Come on! It's coming! Hurry up..."

The coral, which is more than twice the size of the battleship, is getting closer, but the battleship has no intention of moving at all. Seeing the target rushing straight in, the two virtual people have used all their strength to scream and scream.

However, the battleship still didn't move...until the target got closer and closer, reaching a distance of only one kilometer...

'Boom! ' A strong tremor suddenly reverberated inside the battleship, and the two imaginary people were shaken up and flying. Lin's battleship suddenly rose up at this moment, and the huge coral rushed under the battleship at the same time.

When the coral rushed under the body of the battleship, a large number of tentacles suddenly spewed out like an explosion, and the barbed part of the tentacles tightly hooked the body of the coral...

The two virtual people in the battleship seemed to be too frightened to speak.

With the speed of the coral, the battleship was dragged by it and flew rapidly in the void.

It seems that the tentacles are successfully hooked. These tentacles are made of multiple composite structures and have extreme toughness, which is almost impossible to be pulled off.

A large number of tentacles were hooked on the coral, and some tentacles began to slowly wind up tighter. The coral was still dragging the battleship forward and seemed to have no intention of stopping.

Then, the battleship stretched out some special tentacles under it, and the surfaces of these tentacles all had a sharp drill bit.

The drill reached the coral, and then began to spin rapidly, and countless debris flew up with the drill.

Lin intends to break it down just like this. The tentacle's drill has no cellular structure, but is made of a mixed alloy structure. If it encounters a too hard target, it can also use high-heat light to drill down.

There are some types of drills that use a dissolving fluid to ensure that any target will be shattered.

But the drilled coral didn't seem to have any plan to fight back. It continued to fly like this. A lot of powder and even large fragments were separated as the drill bit went deeper. Lin didn't see any creatures in it. It seemed that this Corals are solid and have no room for living creatures.

Coral is smashed bit by bit under the battleship, and some tentacles of the battleship also have the function of collecting, they collect these smashed and spread fragments...

Lin found that the composition of these fragments seemed to be very similar to the composition of the stones in the meteorite area, almost exactly the same, but a different composition was mixed in it.

This coral... feels like it's made of meteorites, and a special ingredient mixed in it seems to act as an 'adhesive' to bond these stones together...

However, there seems to be more than just rocks here.

The entire coral slowly cracked and disintegrated under the drill, and when drilling to the depths, Lin encountered some rather hard objects.

The hard objects inside were completely unable to be drilled with a drilling force that could drill through the rocks outside. Lin ignored it first, but drilled slowly around it, breaking most of the surrounding rocks. The hard object was also exposed.

Inside the rock is a spear-like structure.

That's right, is it like this?

In a piece of rock that looks like coral, there is actually a 'spear' hidden.

The spear is completely different from the fragile rock outside. It is quite hard. Its length is only half the length of the coral, which is about 500 meters, and it is completely hidden inside, taking up very little space.

Does it think so?

This thing is deliberately designed in this way, probably to confuse the enemy. If the opponent attacks it, it will only blow up its outer layer, causing it to be penetrated by the spear.

This was the case with Nemo's battleship before.

However, Lin was a little curious about how it flew. Except for a spear, no power system was found on this thing.

It is now completely relying on the previous momentum to continue to move forward. Although it was pulled by Lin's battleship, the impact has not disappeared, and it is still moving forward. Because it is in the void, there is nothing to stop it. I am afraid it will never stop. will stop.

This thing may have been shot from far away and flew all the way here.

In this way, it is different from the one I saw last time. The coral I saw last time obviously turns, and this one cannot move.

In that case, you have to find its launch point.

This thing should only be able to fly in a straight line, so if you fly in the direction it came from, you should be able to find its launch point, although I don't know how far.

It is possible to fly for a hundred years

So, it's better to send these two imaginary people back first. Anyway, just write down this location and come back.

Lin can also use a teleporter to stuff a small unit into and carry them back, while the battleship goes to the launch point...

But it seems a bit inappropriate to do so, so forget it.

Thinking about it, Lin let the battleship let go of what had been drilled under her body, and turned her head to fly towards the safe area of ​​the virtual people's teleportation.

The remaining stones and the spear continued to fly, not knowing how far they would fly.

I don't know...will there be something to 'recycle' this spear.

In order to cope with this situation, the battleship left a lot of miniature troops on the spear, and they can also continue to detect the composition of the spear.

After this, some time passed.

The advancing spear stopped.

Because, it hit a stone about the same size as it. During the impact, it smashed the stone, but it lost its own power. Although it was still floating slowly, it could not hit anything.

At this time, Lin discovered something wonderful. The small balls that Lin thought were used for observation were released in large numbers from the tail of the spear... (To be continued...)
