Chapter 280: Destroying with All Power
Buzz...
a wave of waves invisible to the naked eye came from the patrol fleet in front, and ripples appeared on the ocean of time and space that had just returned to calm.
The holographic panel above the main console in front of her immediately popped up the warning information from the ship's main brain -
[Warning! ]
[The enemy ship has started the curvature engine and is expected to enter the curvature state in ten seconds! ]
"They want to rely on curvature navigation to quickly close the distance!"
Isha's calm voice came from the side, and her mechanical artificial eye flashed a faint blue light, staring at the fleet outside the porthole.
Relying on this mechanical artificial eye, she can observe the movements of the enemy ship very intuitively.
While observing, Isa quickly called up a panoramic star map of the star system constructed with the starship as the origin on the holographic panel in front of her: "The current coverage of [Imprisoner] is 17%, and it can already provide comprehensive coverage of the cruise fleet and the Swamp Star."
"Should we activate [Imprisoner] in advance?"
"Brother Fan, they turned on the fire control radar!" Accompanied by a short alarm, Gao Yuan's report came from the side, "The starship's shield system has started automatically."
After experiencing several wars, Isa and Gao Yuan's familiarity with the Investigator Starship has increased visibly.
Listening to the two people's reports, Chen Fan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the image of the enemy ship in the holographic interface: "No hurry, wait a little longer." "
The efficiency of activating the [Imprisoner] now is too low."
"We can't waste too much time on the patrol fleet. Don't forget that our real goal is the nanomachines on the Swamp Abyss Star."
Isa suddenly realized: "I understand."
As she spoke, the space near the thousands of patrol starships with pits on their surfaces gradually showed extremely obvious distortion. Those patrol starships seemed to be driven by an inexplicable force and accelerated towards the [Varilla] in an orderly manner!
At the moment when the ten-second countdown ended, these thousands of patrol starships disappeared abruptly in the visible universe!
At this moment, Chen Fan's eyes lit up, and he issued an order without hesitation.
"Isa! Now, [Imprisoner] is running at full power!"
"Pull them out for me!!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Silent, invisible vibrations began to appear at every key space-time node.
The resonance effect began to appear!
[Space-time Trap], start!
Under the influence of these space-time nodes, the entire space-time ocean began to fluctuate irregularly with [Varilla] as the origin!
For the curvature engine, this irregular fluctuation is fatal, especially for the curvature engine in working state, which is simply a fatal blow!
Just like throwing a steel bar into a high-speed engine, the irregular space-time trap generated by [Imprisoner] is enough to scrap most of the curvature engines!
The battle situation developed as Chen Fan expected.
At the moment when [Imprisoner] started to operate and the space-time trap was completely formed, bursts of explosions and flames suddenly broke out in the originally empty universe!
Under the reflection of the flames, a large number of fleets suddenly appeared again.
Compared with the previous neat formation, the current patrol fleet is obviously much more chaotic, and even several starships collided with each other. The previous burst of explosions and flames was caused by the collision of starships and the scrapping of curvature engines!
…
"The fleet has successfully entered the curvature state."
The starry sky outside the porthole changed quietly, and the crew's report sounded in the command room: "We are closing the distance with the target starship!"
"Where is the enemy ship?" The general's eyes condensed and asked, "What is the starship of the human alliance doing?"
"..."
The crew stammered and answered in a low voice: "The radar shows that the enemy ship... The enemy ship has no reaction and is still staying in place."
Hearing this, the general's face became more and more ugly.
"Arrogant, too arrogant!"
"Prepare to use curvature missiles, I will make them pay for their arrogance!!"
Before the voice fell, a sharp and piercing alarm sounded suddenly in the command room, and layers of bright blue warning signals appeared on the screen in front!
"Abnormal fluctuations in the surrounding space-time field have been detected!!"
A big-headed baby fish made a hoarse and sharp cry.
With the exclamation of the crew, the command room quickly became chaotic.
"What's going on?" The general's face was gloomy, and he asked the exclaiming crew member.
"I, I don't know." The big-headed salamander's face was full of panic and horror. "The detection instrument shows that the space-time field near the Swamp Abyss Star has abnormal irregular fluctuations, and the intensity of this fluctuation is still growing at an alarming rate!"
The general frowned.
Although he was not very clear about the professional knowledge of curvature navigation, he knew that the abnormal fluctuations in space and time had a significant impact on the curvature engine. At the same time, he flashed in his mind the image of the khaki starship releasing some inconspicuous small devices.
"Damn it! It's their doing!"
"Stop pushing! Emergency stop pushing!"
The general screamed loudly, and his hoarse voice covered the harsh alarm sound: "Notify all patrol starships to stop the curvature engine immediately..."
"Come, it's too late..." The big-headed salamander looked at the bright blue warning information flashing on the screen, and his lips trembled slightly, "It's too late..."
Boom!!!
Before the general could figure out the meaning of this sentence, a loud explosion came from the rear end of the ship, and the deck under his feet also shook violently!
Amid the explosion and the sharp alarm, the gorgeous scene outside the porthole quickly dissipated, and the familiar starry sky appeared in front of the general again.
The general endured the pain and stood up from the deck with difficulty.
The aftermath of the explosion was still echoing in his ears. On the screen in front of him, a series of bright blue warning lights had lit up on the hull of the command ship.
Among them, the light in the engine area at the rear of the hull was particularly dazzling!
The curvature engine was destroyed!
Not only the curvature engine, but also the conventional power engine next to it had a major malfunction due to the curvature engine!
Swamp Patrol Fleet, the battle lasted 15 seconds, and the entire fleet lost its maneuverability!
For interstellar war, such a result is tantamount to annihilation! !
The general stared blankly at the screen in front of him, and his mind went blank.
He turned his head stiffly and looked out the porthole again.
Patrol starships were hovering in the deep and dark universe, and almost every patrol starship had a light or heavy explosion at the end.
His eyes swept through the fleets he led one by one, and finally looked at the instigator with a stiff movement.
The khaki starship was still quietly hovering in the starry sky, and the shield around the ship was glowing with a faint golden light.
It did not move at all, but just silently watched the patrol fleet in front of it.
At this moment, a flash of enlightenment finally flashed through the general's heart.
The real arrogance...
turned out not to be the other party, but him who tried to fight against the gods with the advantage of numbers!
Yes, gods!
Facing the warships of the fifth-level civilization, the other party easily solved an entire fleet without even launching any active attacks!
If this isn't a god, what else could it be? !
"Quick..."
The general's body was shaking, and deep in his eyes was a strong look of horror and fear: "Quickly notify the Council!"
"Request support... Request support!!!"
"This is definitely not a civilization that the Swamp Abyss civilization can resist!!!"
Deep in his extremely terrified pupils, the starship with a faint golden light flashing around it suddenly disappeared in the visible universe.
When it appeared again, it had already arrived above the Swamp Abyss planet!!!
...
Swamp Abyss Council.
The chairman and a member of the council looked expressionlessly at the terrified general on the screen.
"Activate the planetary space-based defense network!"
"All the Swamp Self-Defense Fleet will attack!"
"At all costs, hold that starship!"
The Senate President stood up from his chair and issued a series of orders calmly: "Notify the interstellar communication station, the tachyon broadcast tower is running at full power, and immediately send a distress message to the Bree Alliance and the Bree Civilization!"
After that, he looked at the radio communication screen in front of him with a delay of several seconds: "General, don't panic." "
The tachyon broadcast will be sent soon, and the support of the Bree Alliance will arrive soon."
"They..."
"Can't run away!"
Hearing the words of the Senate President, the general moved his mouth, but finally did not say anything.
He sat back in his chair with difficulty, looking at the chaotic scene in the command room, he sighed deeply.
...
Outside the Swamp.
Endless artillery fire was launched from the synchronous orbit of the Swamp, crossing a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers to the [Varilla] hovering above the Swamp.
This was an attack launched by a third-level civilization with all its strength!
"Ion cannon, high-energy laser, electromagnetic cannon..."
Chen Fan frowned as he looked at the weapon categories on the holographic panel, and finally shook his head: "One, leave it to you."
"Quick battle, quick decision."
[Received.]
The moment the electronic synthesized voice sounded, the [Varilla] suddenly took action!
In just a moment, it accelerated from a static state to 70% of the speed of light! !
At the same time, a series of thin black cracks appeared in the vast universe!
As soon as the black cracks appeared, they quickly disappeared in the visible universe-the speed of these space cracks has exceeded the speed of light!
Swish! Swish! Swish! !
The fine and dense space cracks flashed over the Swamp Abyss Civilization, and dense explosions and flames rushed into the sky! !
Just a face-to-face encounter, the planetary space-based defense system built on the synchronous orbit of the Swamp Abyss Star was completely destroyed!
"Received a communication request from Aura."
Just as the [Varilla] began to dive into the atmosphere, an electronic synthesized voice sounded in the cockpit.
As soon as Chen Fan's thoughts came to his mind, the communication channel was filled with the somewhat chaotic shouts of Olaya and Baroka.
"Be careful of the Blay Alliance!!"
"Sir Chen Fan! Tachyon broadcast tower! The Swamp Civilization has rented a tachyon broadcast tower from the Blay Alliance!!"
"The location of the broadcast tower... is in the synchronous orbit of Swamp β!"
