Chapter 508 Battleships as Missiles
"This..."
Looking at the picture in the holographic interface, Fang Yunsheng was stunned.
The Human Union does not have a deep understanding of the material information theory.
To be precise, even now, research in this area has just started.
Even in the Academy of Sciences, there are a large number of academicians who can't figure out the principles, not to mention the Human Union Fleet.
In fact, if the peacekeeping fleet led by Fang Yunsheng had not just caught up with this support mission, it is estimated that Fang Yunsheng would not have known that there was such a thing as material information theory.
It is precisely for this reason that Fang Yunsheng can only barely understand the fancy information entropy fluctuation data now, and cannot understand the various deep information derived from the information entropy fluctuation data very well.
Fang Yunsheng, who has a clear understanding of his situation, turned his head and cast a look of help to Xu Mingqi not far away after a brief daze.
"Academician Xu, this thing..."
"What does it mean?"
Xu Mingqi's expression was extremely solemn, as if he had seen something incredible.
"..."
He was silent for a moment, and finally answered in an uncertain tone: "I'm not sure either, but I see... it seems a bit like an information shield."
"Although there are many differences, I remember that the information barrier surrounding the anti-universe bubble was also in this form."
"Those super-large giant scorpions seem to have directly installed these information shields on all the giant scorpions around them through some unknown means."
"All the giant scorpions?" Fang Yunsheng was slightly stunned, and soon understood what Academician Xu meant.
This is...
a group shield? !
After all this fuss, it turns out that the function of those super-large starry sky giant scorpions is to buff the scorpion group? ! !
Fang Yunsheng's face instantly turned livid.
As an information barrier, or a "personal experiencer" of information shields, Fang Yunsheng naturally has the deepest understanding of information shields - based on his previous experience outside the anti-universe bubble, if those conventional giant scorpions were surrounded by information shields, the only firepower advantage of the human coalition fleet would be quickly consumed!
On the other side.
During the conversation between Fang Yunsheng and Xu Mingqi, the strange white light that permeated the starry sky gradually dissipated, and the vast starry sky once again returned to its previous depth and darkness.
The white light quickly shrank, and finally returned to the surface of the super-large giant scorpions surrounded by the scorpion group. The
hideous triangular flesh wings on the backs of these giant scorpions slowly drooped, listlessly drooping on the backs covered with dark purple armor.
But unlike before, this pair of triangular flesh wings did not completely "extinguish". On the contrary, they still emitted an extremely weak and dim light. Against the backdrop of the dark purple armor, the strange white light was also stained with a faint purple meaning.
The light purple light slowly rippled from the side of the giant scorpion, forming a circle of visible barriers.
The next second, these giant scorpions slowly closed their two pairs of eyes that were as big as a city, glowing with scarlet light.
It seemed that the act of releasing white light just now consumed a lot of their energy.
As for the scorpion group...
just by observing with the naked eye, the huge scorpion group did not seem to have any changes.
But the actual situation was obviously not as peaceful as what the naked eye saw.
Strong space-time fluctuations came from afar, and the dark matter fishing net that stretched for tens of thousands of light years was swept back by the space-time tsunami, sweeping towards the scorpion group.
Buzz...
The dark matter fishing net that had been successful before encountered a setback this time - when the "fishing net" flashing with black light swept through the scorpion group, it seemed to be blocked by something and instantly became fragmented, and the originally vigorous explosion light also dimmed in an instant.
The scorpion group, no damage.
The battlefield also quieted down at this moment - the scene in front of them deeply shocked every soldier and officer in the peacekeeping fleet.
The starry sky giant scorpions seized this fleeting opportunity, and the large giant scorpions suddenly opened their slightly closed eyes, opened their ferocious mouthparts, and issued a silent hiss at the scorpion group surrounding them.
Wow!!!
The ocean of time and space suddenly set off a raging wave. The scorpion tide formed by trillions of giant scorpions, riding on this tsunami of time and space, and with the invisible information shield, launched the first real joint attack on the human fleet blocking the front! !
"Something happened!"
Fang Yunsheng's face turned pale and he stood up from his seat. The combat
power of the scorpion group with the information shield has more than doubled!
If the previous scorpion group had a combat power beyond the conventional eighth-level civilization with its huge number and fearless offensive style, then the current scorpion group has become a true ninth-level civilization - even if they have not mastered the rule technology!
This is a war between ninth-level civilizations!
After realizing this, Fang Yunsheng turned his head and looked at Xu Mingqi, who also had a grim expression: "Academician Xu..."
"In the absence of the Genesis Fortress, do you have a way to solve the information shield?"
Xu Mingqi's eyes twitched slightly: "..."
He is just a small second-level garrison academician, you let him solve this kind of thing? !
He wanted to recruit someone from the Academy of Sciences, but he also knew that the incident happened suddenly and on a battlefield that was changing rapidly. Even a Class I academician would find it difficult to come up with a suitable solution in such a complex environment.
Moreover,
few people knew that there were many differences between academicians who worked in the Academy of Sciences for many years and academicians stationed in the army.
Facing Fang Yunsheng's pleading eyes, Xu Mingqi took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
His originally confused thoughts gradually became clear, and the many solutions he had come up with before when facing the cosmic information barrier also came to his mind one by one.
Without the Genesis Fortress, it is impossible to create information jets, and naturally it is impossible to break the information shield - it seems that this seems to be an unsolvable dead end.
"There must be a way..."
Xu Mingqi murmured in a low voice, and his eyes became chaotic.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Suddenly!
A rather risky but potentially effective solution flashed through Xu Mingqi's mind, and his eyes instantly became clear!
He hesitated for a moment, wanting to think it over carefully.
But watching the number representing the distance of the scorpion group in the holographic interface shrinking, Xu Mingqi gritted his teeth and directly decided on this risky solution.
Under Fang Yunsheng's watch, he quickly reported the situation encountered by the peacekeeping fleet to the Academy of Sciences, and said in a deep voice:
"General Fang, the main battleships are basically equipped with low-power versions of Genesis units."
"In theory, what the Genesis Fortress can do, the low-power version of the Genesis unit can also do."
"However, due to insufficient power, the Genesis unit inside the battleship can basically only affect the battleship itself."
Fang Yunsheng frowned slightly, as if he realized the meaning of Xu Mingqi's words: "You mean..."
"Yes." Xu Mingqi nodded, "I suggest... close combat."
Close combat? !
Fang Yunsheng was shocked and his expression became gloomy.
In interstellar wars, close combat has almost been completely abandoned - with the growth of civilization levels, the scale and range of wars are also growing. As the saying goes, an inch longer is an inch stronger. When the opponent's range exceeds tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of light years, close combat has become a big joke.
Not only that, the danger of close combat between starships is also extremely high.
By increasing the distance, the starship may still have some time to react to the enemy's attack, but if it is a close-range battle...
for a civilization with superluminal strikes, all attacks will be a sure hit!
"Temporarily replace the operation mode of the Genesis unit."
Xu Mingqi continued: "Create an information film similar to an information jet around the hull of the battleship, and add the impact of the battleship's own flight, it may be possible to break the opponent's information barrier."
"It's just..." Xu Mingqi hesitated a little, "This plan is only feasible in theory, and it has never been actually implemented. I'm worried..."
"Worry about nothing!"
Fang Yunsheng gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "In the current situation, in the entire human alliance, it is estimated that only our Z619 peacekeeping fleet has some experience in handling it."
"Aren't they just some bugs!"
"I have signed a military order! Pick up your weapons and fight it!!"
...
Block E12b, the front battlefield.
From the moment the dark matter "fishing net" failed, this battlefield spanning tens of thousands of light years returned to peace.
But under this visible peace, there are undercurrents surging - the scorpion group has entered the superluminal curvature state and is attacking the protection net of Block E12b at an unprecedented speed.
The main battleships that have received the flagship's order have also stopped the long-range artillery offensive that has almost no effect, and instead created large-scale [space-time traps] in the protection net area that are large enough to cover thousands of light-year star fields.
At the same time, the interiors of these main battleships are also rapidly adjusting accordingly.
Outside Block E12b, there is another scene.
Because the large giant scorpions appeared in Block E12b, the range of the group shield is only limited to the star field near Block E12b.
Therefore, under Fang Yunsheng's command, the main battleships of the peacekeeping fleet were working hard to kill the starry sky giant scorpions that tried to support the E12b block
. Not only that, during the killing process, some of the battleships had quietly left the battlefield and used the wormhole to support the E12b area.
Repairing the plank road in the open, crossing Chencang in secret.
This trick is not only used by the starry sky giant scorpion, but also by Fang Yunsheng.
...
Time passed by.
The silver-white flagship fortress had arrived at the front battlefield. Fang Yunsheng sat in the command position, looking at the seemingly calm starry sky outside the porthole with an indifferent expression.
In front of him, the azure holographic interface was constantly flashing dazzling warning signals - after getting rid of the dark matter fishing net and the annihilation star explosion, the scorpion group's travel speed instantly increased several times. Now, they have crossed the distant starry sky and arrived in front of the fleet in waves of time and space tsunamis.
"Here we go!"
Fang Yunsheng's eyes moved, and he quickly gave orders to the officers around him: "Open the space-time trap! Output power, 100%!"
Buzz...
A chaotic space-time turbulence suddenly arose in the calm starry sky, and the scorpions that were previously moving at a high speed were forced to fall out of the superluminal curvature state.
The scorpions that were suddenly affected by the [space-time trap] also became chaotic.
"Good!"
Looking at the battle report in front of him, Fang Yunsheng's eyes flashed with joy. He did not miss this hard-won opportunity and issued an attack order to all the warships stationed at the E12b node without hesitation:
"Everyone! Charge!!" "
[Titan Mothership], target large giant scorpions, prepare for jump!"
Boom!!!
Under Fang Yunsheng's order, the neatly arranged fleets in the starry sky did not hesitate at all. They directly drove the engines, with pale golden shields, and rushed straight towards the huge scorpions!
At this moment, close combat!
Although the size of a conventional giant scorpion is no more than 10,000 meters, it is far less than that of a main battleship that can easily reach hundreds or even thousands of kilometers.
But the opponent is large in number!
With the absolute advantage in numbers, in just a blink of an eye, the scorpion group, which has not yet recovered from the chaos, turned into a dark purple dragon and completely swallowed these large battleships that came head-on into its "body".
Although Fang Yunsheng had expected such a scene, he still felt a sudden tremor in his heart when he saw it with his own eyes.
Facing the human-combined battleships wrapped in layers, the giant scorpions of different sizes opened their ferocious mouthparts at the same time and tried their best to launch their most powerful attack - the dark matter jet!
Buzz!
The light golden shield around the main battleship suddenly shone with golden light, and the dark matter jets flashing with black light and the surging explosion flames were all blocked outside the golden ship-borne shield.
Such an operation naturally has a price.
Seeing the data of the ship-borne shield quickly climb to the alert value, the muscles on Fang Yunsheng's face trembled violently.
He never thought that the dignified human fleet would be beaten passively and unable to fight back.
"Beep-beep--"
As the red light continued to flash in the azure holographic interface, the piercing alarm sounded in the command center-it was the alarm that the average shield output power of the fleet had reached the limit.
If this continues, I'm afraid those main battleships will be crushed by the scorpion group! !
"Academician Xu!"
Fang Yunsheng's eyes rarely flashed a trace of anxiety, and he shouted to Xu Mingqi who was still remotely debugging the parameters of the Genesis unit: "Have you finished it over there?!"
"..."
Xu Mingqi did not reply, he pursed his lips tightly, and his hands became more and more anxious.
Boom! !
Outside the porthole, a ball of fiery red explosion light suddenly lit up inside the scorpion group, and a bloody number-1 flashed in the holographic interface.
Facing the wheel-like siege of the huge scorpion group, one of the main battleships had its shield penetrated and turned into ashes in the starry sky.
The battle damage appeared when the two sides just came into contact!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the dazzling flames continued to light up, the blood-red numbers in the interface began to steadily increase to double digits.
"Xu! Ming! Qi!"
Looking at the battle damage numbers that were about to jump to three digits, Fang Yunsheng could no longer sit still.
Those were his soldiers! His battleship!
The battleship was destroyed, but those soldiers and officers could never be resurrected again! With
a ferocious look on his face, he stood up directly from the command position: "Open the wormhole and prepare for the jump!"
"The flagship is ready to enter..."
"Alright!!"
Before the words fell, Xu Mingqi shouted and interrupted Fang Yunsheng's order: "The parameters of the Genesis unit have been adjusted!"
"Quick!!" Fang Yunsheng didn't even have time to think, and directly issued an order to the shipboard main brain, "Notify the fleet to start the Genesis unit!!"
"Except for the energy required for the shipboard shield, blast all the energy into the Genesis unit!"
...
Buzz...
The moment the order was issued, pure vacuum zero-point energy instantly poured into the Genesis unit equipped on the warship under the control of the shipboard main brain.
Supported by the majestic energy, the singularity of nothingness appeared instantly.
Then, as the singularity began to flicker in the form of a singularity cloud, a strange information disturbance flow slowly emerged inside the warship.
Under the control of the Genesis unit, this information flow gradually condensed and easily passed through the heavy armor of the warship. It
was like a thin film composed of surging information flows, which evenly covered the hull of the warship.
When the information flow film was completed, the main battleship, which had been in a passive state of being beaten, once again took action! !
The shuttle-shaped battleship, driven by the engine, forced into a curvature state, and the information flow film on the surface of the ship also flew at an ultra-high speed of hundreds of thousands of times the speed of light!
The battleship sprinted fiercely towards the scorpion group that was all around!
Yes, the Genesis unit equipped on the main battleship can't create information jets like the Genesis Fortress.
But the battleship itself can move.
At this moment, the shuttle-shaped battleship with a length of thousands of kilometers used itself as a skeleton, and it seemed to have turned into an information flow bullet flying at hundreds of thousands of times the speed of light, fiercely shooting at the scorpion group protected by the information barrier!
The moment the battleship passed by, driven by the battleship itself, the information flow film on the outside of the ship began to produce violent friction and collision with the information barrier around the giant scorpion!
Wow!!!
In the flagship fortress that had not yet entered the front battlefield, Fang Yunsheng seemed to hear a series of crisp sounds of glass breaking.
That was the sound of the information barrier being smashed by the main battleship! !
Almost at the same time, a series of explosions and flames shot up from the airtight scorpion swarm!
Unlike the flames from the previous warship explosions, this time the flames came from the attacks of the Human Alliance warships!
