Chapter 430 A Necessary Victory
Swish!!
Dense air blades passed through the slowly dissipating shadow of the giant scorpion and sank into the deep starry sky.
Missed.
[Damn it!!]
In the command center of the Xinaluo flagship, a flash of visible resentment flashed across Artesia's face: [Just a little bit, just a little bit...]
[Gurchi!]
As if she had thought of something, she turned her head and looked at Gurchi not far away: [Can you relocate its coordinates? ! ]
Gurchi's face looked a little ugly.
Theoretically, the Xinaluo civilization has the technology to relocate the coordinates of a flying object that has entered the superluminal cruise state and implement superluminal strikes.
But...
that was the Xinaluo civilization at its peak.
It is true that the Royal Expedition Fleet was inherited from the Xinaluo civilization at its peak, and it was equipped with various advanced equipment.
But the problem is that he is not a professional warship operator, he is just an ordinary guard!!
The war not only caused a break in the technological system, but also caused a gap in talent!
A mere forty years of peace is not enough for the Xinalo civilization to restore its former glory!
[This...]
Facing Artesia's gaze, a few drops of cold sweat slowly slid down the side of Gurchi's cheek: [I can try, but it may take some time...]
Before the voice fell, accompanied by a violent flash, a piercing alarm sounded in the command center.
The alarm came from Gurchi's position.
[Gurchi! What happened? ! ] Artesia asked anxiously.
Gurchi stared at the screen in front of him in a daze: [The radar detected a space-time fluctuation with an intensity exceeding the detection limit...]
[Location... just in front of the fleet. ]
Gurchi swallowed hard, his face filled with a deep confusion: [In addition, the radar has re-locked the giant scorpion, it has not left...]
[What? ! ] Artesia's face suddenly changed, and she hurriedly turned her head to look at the screen in front of the command center.
A familiar figure appeared again on the screen that was originally empty.
The giant scorpion that had entered the superluminal curvature state before, at some point, appeared again in the visible universe!
The opponent's coordinates only changed slightly - a displacement of hundreds of kilometers, from the scale of interstellar war, it was no different from standing still.
Under the shooting of the high-definition camera, the giant scorpion's posture appeared in front of everyone very clearly.
Compared with its previous calm appearance, the giant scorpion now seemed to have been hit by some invisible impact. Its two pairs of scarlet eyes flashed with obvious fear and panic. Not only that, the dark purple armor on its body also emitted a thick dark black light.
Almost at the same time.
A broadcast message popped up in front of everyone.
[This is the Varela! ]
[We will jump into the field in ten seconds. The space-time trap has been arranged. Please open fire at will! ]
Space-time trap?
What is this?
A doubt flashed through Artesia's mind quickly, but then she focused on the four words "open fire at will".
In a flash, she seemed to understand what Chen Fan meant.
This was a chance for the Xinaluo Fleet to prove itself, granted by the Star Envoy!
[Thank you Star Envoy...]
She silently muttered in her heart, and at the same time, she cast her eyes on the giant scorpion that was firmly imprisoned by some unknown force, and the murderous aura in her eyes gradually became stronger:
[All ships, lock the target, and fire freely! ! ! ]
...
Right in front of the Royal Expedition Fleet.
The giant scorpion tried hard to move its body, but just now, the space-time ocean that was previously at its fingertips suddenly turned into a muddy swamp. No matter how it struggled, it could not break free from this swamp.
As tiny black marks condensed around the Royal Expedition Fleet again, the panic in the giant scorpion's eyes became more and more intense.
But the object of its panic was not actually those ridiculously small space cracks.
Even if the number of space cracks of this power was multiplied several times, it would be impossible to penetrate its defense!
What it really feared was the sudden change in the space-time ocean around it, and the gradually increasing space-time fluctuations in the space-time ocean! !
From the perspective of the giant scorpion, a huge vortex was slowly forming in the space-time ocean between it and the expeditionary fleet. The space-time fluctuations and huge energy contained in it made even it feel terrified! !
After a brief thought, it could only attribute all the reasons to the sudden participation of the Xinaluo flagship in the battle - all the abnormal phenomena only appeared after the Xinaluo flagship entered the battle!
It didn't dare to continue to be arrogant, and opened its mouth to send a silent hissing to its companions.
The hissing sound, which was transmitted by tachyons, had almost no delay and was directly transmitted to the ears of its companions.
At this moment, all the giant scorpions went crazy! !
But...
with the active self-destruction of the Xinaluo small warships, even the giant scorpion could not get close to the flagship in the center of the fleet! !
Along with the insignificant space-time fluctuations, hundreds of tiny space cracks rushed towards it! !
The scarlet light in the giant scorpion's two pairs of eyes became brighter and brighter. In a split second, it had made a decision.
It couldn't escape, it could only fight hard!
The dark black light quickly spread over its dark purple armor, completely enveloping its body.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!
The next moment, a series of fine and dense space cracks accurately bombarded its body surface, and ripples were created on the dark black light.
No pain, no itch.
The panic in the giant scorpion's two pairs of small eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a hint of sarcasm.
That's it?
Apart from the means to restrict its movement, the attack launched by the opponent doesn't seem to be very good! !
Just when the giant scorpion secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the vortex in the ocean of time and space was completely formed, and a small, harmless and round starship slowly emerged from the vortex.
Looking at the changes in front of him, a trace of confusion flashed in the giant scorpion's eyes.
What is the origin of this little thing?
It is just a little bigger than the newborns in the tribe, and its body length is not even longer than the smallest warship in the fleet just now...
It seems that the strength of this civilization is just like this.
But in the next second, the confusion and sarcasm in the giant scorpion's eyes completely solidified.
Under the cover of the powerful space-time fluctuations, a deep black appeared in front of this inconspicuous starship.
Although the specifications of this space crack are very similar to those of the previous space cracks, the giant scorpion felt a strong sense of crisis at just a glance! !
The strength of the two is definitely not at the same level! !
Swish! !
The black mark shot forward and quickly blended into the space cracks created by the fleet.
It can't be stopped, it can't stop this space crack!!!
A strong premonition rose in the giant scorpion's heart. It didn't hesitate at all, and directly opened its huge mouthparts, sending out the strongest tachyon hiss in its life to the surroundings!!
"Run!! Run!!!"
The next moment.
The black light wrapped around the giant scorpion's armor suddenly lit up, and then quickly dimmed.
A smooth mark appeared on the giant scorpion's head without any warning, and quickly spread to the giant scorpion's huge body!
The tachyon hissing stopped abruptly!
...
[Success!!!]
[General Artesia, we succeeded!!!]
[Counterattack the mother planet! Counterattack the mother planet!!]
Looking at the slowly dimming black light on the screen and the motionless giant scorpion's body, the Xinalo flagship suddenly lit up with cheers and joy, and the previous despair and dejection atmosphere was swept away!
Inside the battle armor, Artesia showed a relieved smile on her face.
Although only one giant scorpion was defeated, it was still an unprecedented victory for the current Xinaluo civilization!
This victory is too important for the Xinaluo Royal Expedition Fleet and the entire Xinaluo civilization! !
Just as Artesia was relieved, a message appeared in front of her.
It was a private communication from Gurchi.
[Captain Artesia, it was not the air blade we sent that killed the giant scorpion, but the attack of the Star Envoy. ]
[When the Varela jumped into the field, the shipboard detector detected a strong space-time fluctuation, which was a bit similar to our air blade, but the intensity was far greater than the air blade. ]
Artesia was shocked and looked at Gurchi on the side calmly.
Gurchi nodded slightly, confirming her inquiring look.
[...Delete all detection records. ]
Artesia felt a little heavy. At this moment, she completely understood what Chen Fan meant.
She sighed silently and issued another order to Gurchi: [Remember, this giant scorpion is the trophy of the Xinaluo fleet. ]
[Xina Luo civilization...]
[Need this victory. ]
...
At the same time, in the investigator starship.
"The jump is successful."
"The attack has hit the target, and the target has lost basic vital signs."
As the electronic synthesis voice of Yi sounded in the cockpit, Gao Yuan cast a confused look at Chen Fan in the driver's seat: "Brother Fan, why do you want to temporarily delay the high-dimensional jump?"
"Also, why do you deliberately hide the space rift we sent?"
Hearing Gao Yuan's question, Chen Fan chuckled and pointed to the Xinaluo fleet behind him: "For the future of Xinaluo civilization."
"Since they have the courage to attack these bugs, this victory is what they deserve."
Gao Yuan nodded, not quite understanding.
"Warning! The target is trying to escape from the current star field!"
The electronic synthesis voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the conversation between Chen Fan and Gao Yuan.
Chen Fan's expression was stern, and he looked up at the holographic interface in front of him. Dozens of giant scorpions, as if they had received some instructions, all left the broken Xinaluo fleet and fled in panic!
"Escape?"
A cold light flashed in Chen Fan's eyes: "Can they escape?!"
"First, lock all targets, and never let any giant scorpion escape!"
He paused slightly and looked at Hongshi beside him:
"Hongshi, notify the Xinaluo fleet and ask them to withdraw to Xinaluo Star immediately."
"The next battlefield will be managed by the human team."
