Gods: The Swarm

Chapter 408 Ambush 3

Main, who was on the flagship, had completely lost his composure, replaced by an expression of horror and fear.

"Why..., this is impossible..., with the protection of the jump barrier, only the main gun level of the battleship can penetrate the energy barrier of the destroyer!"

The scene in front of him was beyond his reasonable cognition. With just one salvo, the opponent destroyed half of his warships.

Sitting up from the command chair, Main shouted angrily at the panicked crew in the bridge with an ugly face:

"Find out what that is!"

With the prestige accumulated over the years, his rebuke at this time can help others in panic find the backbone.

However, this only temporarily stabilized the morale of the army.

Wilson on the other side did not show much excitement after seeing that his first salvo had caused the opponent's extremely high combat damage.

Entering the war state, he controlled the situation in this area in real time and saw that almost all the small and medium-sized warships of the alien fleet had been destroyed.

The remaining ones were large destroyers and cruisers, as well as more than ten battleships with a length of more than 5,000 meters.

Wilson did not hesitate and immediately continued to control the surrounding floating gun arrays and started the second wave of concentrated fire.

The priority target was those warships that had lost their ability to resist due to energy shield overload in the previous attack.

More accurate energy rays once again covered the remaining fleet.

A large number of warships turned into fireworks blooming in the void under the attack of high-energy rays.

Then came the third wave of salvos, the fourth wave of salvos...

In order to send out high-energy rays that could pass through the jump barrier, the red-eyed barnacles had to increase the energy level of the attack to the strength of the battleship's main gun.

All the energy consumed by their attack needed to be quickly replenished by consuming the reserves of the fungal blanket.

After multiple rounds of ultra-high intensity salvos, the reserve energy of the fungal blankets harvested in the past half month has been consumed, and it is temporarily unable to continue to provide sufficient energy for the red-eyed barnacles.

In addition, some red-eyed barnacles died due to the high-energy rays that exceeded their own limits, resulting in a continuous decline in the intensity of the subsequent waves of attacks.

Wilson, who had an overview of the battle situation, found that the efficiency of destroying the enemy warships in the subsequent rounds of shooting by the floating artillery array began to decline.

He shook his head helplessly, as this situation was within his expectations.

The intensity of high-energy rays after the energy level dropped was difficult to pose a fatal threat to large warships equipped with high-power energy shields.

As long as the opponent's attack energy level cannot reach the intensity of penetrating the energy shield, and the energy supply of the large-scale energy shield generator on board can be stable, the damaged energy shield can be quickly recharged.

Unfortunately, there are too many red-eyed barnacles, and many warships have suffered varying degrees of damage in the first round of ultra-high energy salvos arranged by Wilson.

Even though the intensity of the subsequent rounds of salvos dropped sharply, the density of the attack did not decrease but increased.

The spherical encirclement constructed by the floating artillery array completely surrounded the entire alien fleet.

No matter which angle, the warships in it would be bombarded by high-energy rays, with almost no gaps!

The energy shield generators of most cruisers also suffered various faults or even burned out directly due to output power overload in this non-stop intensive attack.

Round after round of covering high-energy rays, like a heavy rain, sprinkled on Myne's fleet, and the clusters of fireworks from the warships exploded from the edge of the remaining fleet array and continued to sweep towards the center.

None of the warships within the coverage attack range could escape such intensive attacks!

Myne, who was on the flagship, looked at the one-sided battlefield situation and knew that he must have kicked the iron plate this time.

"The fleet will disperse immediately. While the jump barrier has not completely disappeared, the attack lock will be disturbed. Everyone will break out on their own and regroup after leaving their firepower range."

He decisively issued an order to disperse and break out. In his opinion, this is the only option at present.

The opponent's attack is not only huge in number, but also powerful. Who can withstand it?

Besides, the floating artillery array built a spherical encirclement, which is not impeccable.

Relying on hundreds of thousands of fungal blankets like rootless duckweed and the ray towers rooted on them, such a large-scale encirclement is built. The power in each direction is undoubtedly extremely weak.

If the remaining large warships break out in a dispersed manner, not only can the target be reduced, but the floating artillery array that cannot move can no longer carry out the current all-round concentrated fire.

The entire encirclement will inevitably have loopholes, allowing some undamaged large ships to break out.

Not only did Mayne notice this, but Wilson, as the designer of the floating artillery array tactics, also knew this.

This is why he endured the pain and was willing to sacrifice a large number of fungal blankets and red-eyed barnacles to gain an absolute advantage in the first wave of attacks.

The subsequent continuous firing of the floating artillery array was also to kill as many enemy ships as possible before the enemy commander had not yet reacted.

Now, even if Mayne reacted, his subordinates had already suffered huge losses. In the process of breaking through, a large number of warships were constantly destroyed.

In the end, the ships that could truly break through the floating artillery array would only be the dozen or so battleships and more than 10,000 cruisers that were damaged to varying degrees.

What made Mayne vomit blood was that even the warships that had broken through were still within the attack range of the Red Eye Barnacle Ray Tower.

The Red Eye Barnacle's all-round attack angles made the warships that had just broken through continue to be bombarded by high-energy rays while trying to quickly distance themselves.

As the interference of the jump barrier disappeared, whether it was the main guns of the warships, the auxiliary guns, or even the air defense arrays...

All the ship-borne weapons began to roar wildly, pouring fire on the floating guns within the range.

The crew vented their anger and panic in this way, and a large number of fungal blankets collapsed and exploded in the gunfire.
