Chapter 461 Cavalry

The reason why space-type mechas have to start from level C and pose a huge threat to enemy warships is of course not as simple as mentioned above.

Space mechas are equipped with small psychic jump engines, which can also open the subspace and allow the mecha to fly short distances within the subspace.

This small jump engine is too small to fly long distances in the subspace. Not only can the jump engine not do it, but even the energy source and the driver's psychic power cannot do it.

However, general space battles are all within a small area, and most of them are probably fought within the star system.

In this way, the small psychic jump engine carried by the space mecha has its place.

The mecha can make short jumps within the subspace, and the maximum length of this jump can reach about five million kilometers.

In this way, the mecha can start from its own ship and use the psychic jump engine to enter the subspace and jump directly to the face of the enemy ship.

For example, the Seventh Wave's Tough-class battleships that Li Xin had seen before had main guns with focused arcs, and the range of these main guns was only 500,000 kilometers.

Others, such as cruisers, destroyers and even frigates, are equipped with weapons with shorter ranges, such as heavy laser cannons, ion splitter cannons and other weapons.

Their range is generally only about 100,000 to 250,000 kilometers, and some are even shorter.

For example, the weapons on frigates may have a range of only about 100,000 kilometers.

Mechas can jump directly from the subspace to the vicinity of enemy ships and start direct face-to-face attacks. This is why mechas still have a place in the universe of starship stars.

After observing the mecha for a while, Li Xin flew into it and used his psychic power to bind to the mecha.

As spiritual energy entered the mecha, an even more powerful feeling emerged in Li Xin's heart.

For psychics, a mecha is a more powerful and solid body. Driving a mecha and driving a starship are two completely different feelings.

Inside the cockpit, signal lights lit up one by one.

When Li Xin's psychic power was completely combined with the mecha, the mecha was officially activated.

From the outside, the surface of this mecha has begun to emit a faint psychic glow, as if a layer of psychic armor has been affixed to the entire mecha.

The ship-slashing sword was targeted by fire, and the decomposition field with a slight arc of electricity was activated. Everyone around immediately felt their hair stand on end.

On the mecha's head, the area that should have been a pair of eyes lit up.

In the cockpit, an electronic voice sounded at the same time:

"Brave Cavalry!"

"start up!!"

Li Xin drove the cavalry and took slow steps. The surrounding buildings and ground had been specially reinforced, which allowed the ground to withstand the movement of the mecha weighing thousands of tons.

When Li Xin drove the cavalry out of the hangar, he looked around and everything around him seemed very small.

He moved the body of the cavalryman slightly to allow the spiritual energy to merge with the cavalryman more closely.

Finally, Li Xin looked up at the sky. Of course, the space mecha can only show its true strength in space.

As Li Xin's mind moved, the engine behind the cavalry, like two broken metal wings, began to start, accompanied by surging power and a series of Mach loops.

The Valiant Cavalry Mech, weighing thousands of tons, suddenly soared into the sky and arrived in space in an instant.

Here, Li Xin drove the Cavalry to stay briefly in low-Earth orbit. Looking down at the planet below from here was a unique experience.

After a quick look, the engine at the rear of the mecha started again, and this time the speed was even more brutal. The speed of this mecha was even faster than the fastest high-speed reconnaissance ship under Li Xin's command.

Space is a vacuum environment, so there is no need to consider air resistance. In this case, there is naturally no need to consider aerodynamics. You can just use great force to make bricks fly.

The mecha moved quickly within the Tianjin galaxy. The engine was very powerful. It didn't take Li Xin long to reach the location of the star base.

After taking a look at the space dock under busy construction, Li Xin continued to move forward. The mecha was quite flexible.

Compared with the movement of battleships, smaller mechas are very fast and flexible in their maneuvers. It is precisely because of this that mechas can avoid the firepower of the enemy's close-range defense system after approaching the battleship.

After testing the flexibility of the cavalry, Li Xin called upon psychic energy and injected it into the psychic jump engine behind the mecha.

Along with the surging psychic energy, this small leaping engine began to start, and the barrier between the real universe and the subspace in front of it rippled like water waves.

The mecha rushed in suddenly, and Li Xin entered the subspace again. Here, he could feel the active subspace psychic energy.

The engine behind the mecha continued to provide Li Xin with high-speed movement within the subspace. He avoided the small energy threads around him and moved forward for a distance.

Open the subspace window through your eyes and look at your location in the real universe.

After confirming that the coordinates were correct, the mecha swung the ship-slashing sword again, and the real universe barrier in front of it was opened, and the cavalry mecha jumped out of it.

Li Xin looked at the place where he appeared. It was a certain distance from the predetermined coordinates, but it was still within an acceptable range.

If this was a real battle, then Li Xin should be only a few minutes' flying distance away from the enemy warship.

There is no possibility of accurately reaching the predetermined coordinates when jumping in the subspace, even for a short-distance jump like that of a mecha.

Because the subspace is moving all the time, it is already very lucky to be able to be so close to the target.

Sometimes being too close is not a good thing. Some mechas even get stuck on enemy warships when they come out of the subspace.

The enemy's warships are all merged together. This is the uncertainty of traveling through the subspace.

Li Xin looked back and saw that his jump this time was about sixty-three astronomical units, jumping directly from the location of the star base to a location about to reach the edge of the galaxy.

After feeling the status of the psychic engine, it would take at least half an hour to enter the subspace and jump again.

If this were a battlefield, Li Xin would have no choice but to start getting close to the enemy's warship and start fighting using the ship-cutting sword.
