Chapter 1529 Trap?

A shrill alarm sounded throughout the ship, and the shield expansion system began to recharge at the same time as the alarm sounded. Large areas of azure veins appeared on the silver-white armor belt of the Giant Turtle Yantai, powerful Energy surged in the shield generator, giving the spacecraft several layers of translucent energy shields in the blink of an eye, while a large number of secondary guns, close-in defense guns, and ejection weapon platforms emerged from under the deformable armor structure. Flip and unfold, it flashes coldly in space like a giant beast showing its fangs.

Almost all emotion was gone from Nolan's voice. After entering combat mode, she spoke as coldly and stiffly as a rigid AI: "All weapon systems are online...the impact is expected to arrive in five seconds."

In the past, Hao Ren would have been confused when the alarm sounded, but now his first reaction was to calm down, and while connecting his mind with the spacecraft's perception system, he asked quickly: " Where did the attack come from? Whose?"

"The true identity is unknown. We can only sense an extremely strong energy focus within several astronomical units around the spacecraft. The hostility level is extremely high... The impact is coming."

Almost at the same time as Nolan finished speaking, Hao Ren saw a large area of ​​dazzling light suddenly appear on the external sensor of the spacecraft. The light came without warning, as if the space itself suddenly exploded into endless brilliance, and then these rays of light suddenly appeared. A large structure that looks like vines or branches extends out of it - these structures broke through the spatial distance in the blink of an eye and quickly spread to the Giant Turtle Yantai.

The spacecraft had no way to avoid it, because the attacks came from all directions in the entire space, and these high-energy reactions seemed to interfere with the calculations of the jump engine. The emergency jump also failed. Nolan could only turn on all the shield systems to the maximum, and hit the front hard. Resist this first impact.

Those weird glowing structures in space came into contact with the shield of the Giant Turtle Yantai. In space, it was a silent "light touch", just like a painless lick. However, on the bridge Everyone on board suddenly felt a violent shaking.

Ripples rippled on the surface of the Giant Turtle Yantai's shield. When those seemingly harmless "branches" of light came into contact with the shield, they produced an extremely powerful impact, causing the entire spacecraft to oscillate. However, the censor's ship's powerful The survival system worked: the shield just rippled, not penetrated.

Those luminous branches in space were not discouraged at all - in fact, Hao Ren was not even sure if there was a rational operator behind these things. He looked at those luminous space structures and felt that they were more like some kind of natural Phenomenon. But whether it was a natural phenomenon or not, these things began a second attack.

More luminous branches emerged from space, spreading from all directions as if trying to trap the spacecraft. A large number of small beams of light wrapped around the shield, and the entire spacecraft began to shake left and right.

Nolan also began to fight back.

All the defensive artillery was raised from under the armor belt, and the twenty-six secondary psionic pulse turrets began to fire continuously. Bright blue energy beams burst from the gaps in the armor plates on both sides of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform. came out and accurately hit certain intersections of those luminous branches in space.

According to Nolan's radar scan, the places where those lines intersect are the energy nodes of the "branches". Destroying them should be able to block the enemy's offensive.

The main gun of the Giant Turtle Yantai also began to charge - this powerful thing rarely comes in handy, because in most cases its power is too much for Hao Ren, but now Today, it comes in handy.

Hao Ren's spirit has been connected with the spacecraft's perception system. It's like he is standing in the universe from a first-person perspective, personally feeling the energy storm in all directions in the entire space. He feels a new energy peak. As we are arriving, this space will be blocked by those glowing "branches".

"This thing wants to trap us here!" Hao Ren immediately shouted to Nolan, "What on earth is this?"

"It is a rapidly proliferating energy coupling structure." Nolan assigned a large number of processing units to the tactical module, which made her voice sound more inorganic. "This ship has detected a burst of energy in the local space. An unprecedentedly powerful energy tide, and the surges generated by the energy tide are converging around this ship - if this scale continues, our ship's shields will soon be torn apart."

All the gun mounts of the Giant Turtle Rock Platform were raised, and the dense defensive artillery fire kept firing at the glowing "branches" in the space. These bombardments were very effective. Whenever they hit a key node, there would be several bright lines. The branches collapsed and dissipated in the dense explosion - however, the speed of the gathering of these energy bodies was far faster than the speed of the Giant Turtle Yantai's cannon. Even without looking at the data on the console, Hao Ren could observe the universe with his naked eyes. Space is being entangled and blocked by increasingly dense luminous structures, wrapping up his small spaceship like a cocoon.

A decision must be made.

"Accelerate, get out of here - jump as far as you can towards the nearest focus of gravity."

"receive."

The Giant Turtle Yantai turned its bow with difficulty amid the layers of packages. A burst of blue light swept across the outer shell of the spacecraft. This defensive method specifically used to "clean up" attachments slightly reduced the number of tentacles that were wrapped around it. Affected by the branches, the spacecraft took this opportunity to turn on the engine and accelerate suddenly.

The jump engine is still being interfered by unknown sources. Nolan's countermeasures have begun, but the progress of cracking the interference is not satisfactory. It is almost impossible to accurately jump to the focus of gravity when the engine parameters are seriously inaccurate. So Hao Ren asked to "jump as far as you can" - just jump in one direction, it doesn't have to be somewhere, but at least you have to get rid of this weird trap first.

Yes, a trap. Hao Ren felt that this was a trap.

As the spacecraft accelerated towards the gap, the energy structures spreading around in the space seemed to be touched, as if there was really a rational thing controlling them. These energy tentacles became "angry" and they twisted crazily. Then he started to chase the wake of the Giant Turtle Yantai. Beams of light continued to wrap around the shield of the spacecraft, and the continuous explosions caused the entire ship to shake violently.

The impact was so strong that even the spacecraft's inertial stabilizer could not withstand it.

Everyone on the bridge was nervous. They were actually a little panicked when the attack just started: even if they were more knowledgeable, the experience of being bombed while sitting in a spaceship was very rare.

Lily nervously grabbed the armrest of the seat. Although she was very powerful, individual strength seemed to be of no use in this situation. She was covered in hair as she watched Hao Ren trying to correct the parameters of the spacecraft, and couldn't help but say: " Landlord...what's going on? Wasn't it okay when the drone came over to detect it before? Why were we blocked and beaten as soon as we came in?"

"We still can't figure out the situation," Hao Ren said quickly without raising his head, "but the purpose of these attacks is very clear, and it is definitely not a natural phenomenon... There is something preventing us from entering the X star cluster..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Nolan's alarm sounding again: "Attention! There is a focus of energy ahead... Unable to avoid, all personnel resist the impact..."

A bright light appeared in Hao Ren's field of vision from the perspective of the spaceship. He saw that the light was cutting down like a sharp blade, and the energy contained in the light shocked him.

Nolan tried his best to deflect the beam at an angle, and the beam hit a set of shield generators in the rear half of the spacecraft. A huge explosion erupted from the rear of the hull, and a large amount of metal and crystal structures flew away in the explosion. It left a tragic trail.

"The fourth to sixth shield generators have lost contact, and the shield strength is less than 30%... The hyperspace stabilizer is damaged and is being switched to a backup component... There is a material leakage in the seventh compartment, and the ship is closed Gate. Attention, the gravity generator is malfunctioning and is undergoing emergency correction..."

Alarms came one after another continuously. The gravity on the bridge was temporarily unbalanced for a while, and everyone floated up. Nangong Wuyue wrapped his tail tightly around a pillar and held on to the console with one hand. Doudou flew out, and his other hand held Elizabeth, who almost flew out, but soon Nolan restarted the backup gravity generator in the key cabin.

Nolan's voice sounded a little choppy, as if there was something wrong with his language function: "The attack contains divine power, and the energy level is the same as secondary psionic energy."

Hearing her words, Hao Ren didn't have any surprised expression on his face: it was this kind of power he felt just now.

The Giant Turtle Rock Platform also uses this level of power. The power level is the same, but in terms of quantity...

Hao Ren glanced at the energy storm that was clinging to the spacecraft - it had now developed into a terrifying space structure with a scale of several astronomical units, surging around the spacecraft like an indescribable ferocious whirlpool. Later, the fragments of material thrown out after the damage to the Giant Turtle Yantai fell into the storm and were swallowed up by the latter. The small spacecraft was almost not even a grain of sand in the desert in front of this maelstrom. Not on.

One word is worth a thousand words, Gan.

It is impossible to return the same way, because the jump engine is interfered with, and any precise jump is impossible. If it is a regular voyage, it will be overtaken by the storm within a few minutes, and there will be no time to retreat to the outside of the X star cluster.

Then there is only one way.

"Start the jump."

"But the jump parameters are still..."

"Leap directly, without setting a course, search for the gravitational source in hyperspace, or land on any planet. If possible, it is best to have life response," Hao Ren said firmly, "At the same time, it is necessary to deal with unmanned aerial vehicles. The fleet issued an emergency summons order to let them come in directly - it doesn't matter if the jump is off, just build a fort on the spot and start storming."

"Order received."
