Chapter 511 Giant Scorpion's Counterattack
As soon as Xu Mingqi finished speaking, something strange had already appeared in the holographic interface.
The curve that kept floating up and down, representing the fluctuation of information entropy, rose from the ground in a flash of warning red light and rushed straight to the top of the holographic interface! !
In the blink of an eye, under the watchful eyes of Xu Mingqi and Fang Yunsheng, this curve broke through the warning threshold and even directly pierced the highest scale that symbolized the upper limit of detection.
At the same time, a string of complex coordinate data appeared next to the curve, which was the location where the information entropy fluctuation appeared.
Looking at the complex coordinates, Fang Yunsheng's eyes widened instantly.
Those were clearly the coordinates of the flagship fortress!
This information flow was coming towards the flagship! !
"All ships!"
Thinking of the abnormal information flow when the giant scorpion disappeared and appeared before, Fang Yunsheng's expression suddenly twisted, and he shouted and issued an order: "Emergency evasion!"
"Emergency shield overload!!"
Buzz! ! !
The shipboard main brain responded immediately.
Accompanied by a strong vibration coming from the deck underfoot, the starry sky outside the porthole twisted at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Almost at the same time.
A huge dark purple shadow quickly emerged in the starry sky beside the flagship fortress.
At the forefront of the shadow were four light spots flashing scarlet light.
Those were the four eyeballs of the giant scorpion. The
huge eyeballs quickly passed by the porthole of the command center, and the anger and bloodthirstiness in them were displayed in front of everyone without reservation - after suffering such a heavy blow, the giant scorpion naturally could not give up!
It was like a sperm whale that quickly floated up from the deep sea. The moment it emerged from the sea, the wide whale tail also fell heavily on the sea.
The giant scorpion was the same.
The giant scorpion, which was several times larger than the flagship fortress, had not yet completely revealed its body, and the scorpion tail of tens of thousands of kilometers was raised high in the starry sky, whistling and smashing towards the spinning flagship! !
It happened in a split second.
As the flagship surface flashed with arcs of electricity like a swimming dragon, the previously pale golden shield suddenly shone with golden light!
Clang!!!
The moment the scorpion's tail crossed the distorted time and space around it and hit the ship-borne shield, layers of ripples spread on the golden shield.
Blocked!
The time and space fluctuations around the ship also reached their peak at this moment. In the extreme distortion of time and space, the round flagship suddenly disappeared in the visible universe and got rid of the second attack launched by the giant scorpion.
...
After a short wait, four whirlpools of different sizes suddenly appeared in the calm space-time ocean in the starry sky tens of billions of kilometers away from the giant scorpion.
The silver-white flagship fortress slowly emerged from the largest space-time whirlpool.
Behind it, three Titan motherships also squeezed out from the smaller whirlpools - after the supply of the engineering ship and the repair of the adaptive nanomachine, Titan No. 1 has basically restored its combat effectiveness.
"There are actually three more..."
In the flagship fortress, Fang Yunsheng looked a little gloomy: "I didn't expect that one macro-electronic bomb only solved two giant scorpions..."
"You can't say that."
Xu Mingqi's voice came from the side: "Although the explosion power of the macro-electronic bomb is great, its diffusion speed is too slow. This is its biggest drawback."
"In order to solve this problem, theoretically, macro-electronic bombs usually create ultra-large-scale space-time traps and blockades when used, but... this method is useless for these giant scorpions. They don't rely on space technology to move at all."
Fang Yunsheng's mood eased a little, and he nodded after pondering: "According to what you said, being able to solve two giant scorpions at one time is already a pleasant surprise."
"I guess the other party should not have encountered this kind of weapon, so they can achieve such a good effect."
As he said, Xu Mingqi suddenly frowned: "Hiss..."
"Wait, this doesn't seem to make sense."
"He can master the material informatization technology, but knows nothing about macro-electronic bombs..."
"Logically speaking, this situation should not occur..."
"Who cares!" Fang Yunsheng looked at the three giant scorpions outside the porthole that were no longer huddled together, and snorted coldly, "Since the macro-electronic bomb is useful, then continue to use the macro-electronic bomb to blow it up."
"Anyway, there is no intelligent life in this universe, and I don't have to worry about being censored by those people in the parliament who have nothing to do after eating!"
As he said this, Fang Yunsheng once again pressed the command to prepare the macro-electronic bomb on the control panel in front of him - the stability of the macro-electronic bomb is extremely poor, and it can easily cause the macro-ization of other microscopic particles, so each macro-electronic bomb needs to be made temporarily, otherwise... the entire flagship fortress is an extra-large super bomb that can explode on the spot at any time.
Listening to Fang Yunsheng's words with a hint of dissatisfaction, Xu Mingqi couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Indeed, in theory, the parliament is indeed only responsible for the internal affairs of the Federation, but the number and population of intelligent creatures have increased, and some inexplicable thoughts will always derive - the use of large-scale extinction weapons will inevitably hurt innocent people, and astronomical numbers of innocent lives, so there will always be some voices of opposition.
Although these sounds are unlikely to interfere with the external strategies of the Academy of Sciences and the Human Alliance Army, they are still annoying.
"Don't worry." Xu Mingqi looked at the giant scorpion in the holographic interface and comforted it casually, "This incident is quite serious, involving the existence of a hostile ninth-level civilization. It is probably not the turn of the parliament to intervene."
Fang Yunsheng nodded silently, and refocused his attention on the holographic star map in front of him.
While the two were talking, the three giant scorpions also started to move again - relying on their keen senses of time and space fluctuations, the giant scorpions quickly completed the positioning of the flagship fortress.
"Ding-Ding-"
The piercing alarm sounded again, and the information entropy fluctuation value began to rise again.
"Here it comes!"
Fang Yunsheng's face was stern, and he glanced at the macro-electronic bomb that was about to be manufactured. He raised his hand again and reached for the physical button on the console: "Prepare to release the second macro-electronic bomb!"
Rumble...
The strong vibration came again, and the previous crack that spanned more than 2,000 kilometers also reappeared on the surface of the flagship fortress.
On the other side.
Three giant scorpions silently crossed the starry sky of tens of billions of kilometers and appeared again in front of the flagship fortress.
Looking at the location where the giant scorpion appeared, Fang Yunsheng subconsciously frowned: For some reason, this time, the giant scorpion did not attack the flagship fortress directly, but chose to "land" in the star field 300,000 kilometers away from the fortress.
For the Human Alliance, 300,000 kilometers is actually considered a close combat, but for the giant scorpion that lacks long-range attack means, 300,000 kilometers is still not a close distance - at this distance, even if the giant scorpion swings its scorpion tail to smoke, it is impossible to cause the slightest damage to the flagship fortress.
The next second.
Before Fang Yunsheng could figure out the reason, the abnormal situation appeared silently.
Although the giant scorpion reappeared, the warning sound in the command center showed no sign of weakening, and the curve representing the fluctuation of information entropy did not fall back. It was always high at the scale of the detection upper limit, and even formed a straight line that was completely horizontal at a high level.
At the same time, the three giant scorpions raised the triangular flesh wings on their backs at the same time.
They opened the pair of flesh wings as much as possible, and blue-purple energy pulses surged from their chests and rushed towards the wide flesh wings.
Then, the bleak pale light spread out from the flesh wings, gradually lingering on the dark purple body surface of the giant scorpion, and extended little by little towards the surrounding starry sky.
"Warning!!"
In the command center, the warning sound of the shipboard main brain never stopped: "High-intensity information fluctuations detected! Warning..."
"Oh no!!"
Before Fang Yunsheng could react, Xu Mingqi on the side had changed his face: "It's an information flow attack!!"
"They changed their attack method!!"
Information flow attack! !
Fang Yunsheng shuddered violently. He didn't have time to think and shouted loudly: "Quick!!"
"Master brain, immediately increase the output power of the Genesis unit..."
Before the voice fell, the pale light burst out!
Xu Mingqi's pupils dilated instantly, and the deep starry sky outside the porthole was clearly reflected in his dark pupils.
The originally deep and dark starry sky was once again dyed a dangerous pale color by this strange light at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It's too late.
This thought suddenly flashed through Xu Mingqi's mind.
The speed at which the other party launched the information flow attack was too fast! !
The next moment.
When the strange white light spread to the vicinity of the flagship fortress, a strong sense of dizziness surged into Xu Mingqi's brain without warning!
Buzz! !
! In an instant!
Countless complex and indescribable information instantly flooded into his mind.
These cumbersome information mixed together, as if countless people were whispering in his ears.
Plop.
Xu Mingqi's body softened and he half-knelt on the ground.
He raised his hands painfully to cover his ears, trying to block out the trivial and noisy sound, but...
it was no use.
One second, two seconds...
a stream of boiling hot liquid flowed out from his nose and the corners of his eyes, dripping quickly onto the clean deck, leaving a bright red mark.
Blood.
Xu Mingqi raised his hand in a trance and wiped the hot stream still gushing out of his nose. After finding that the blood was impossible to wipe off, he simply gave up wiping it and turned his head to look to the side with great effort.
Officers fell down in their seats, their eyes closed tightly, and their lives and deaths were uncertain.
As the captain, Fang Yunsheng was naturally the same.
His mind was blank, and he looked up mechanically.
Crackling! Crackling!!
The lights flickered.
Dazzling electric sparks continued to burst out on the control console of the command center. The azure holographic interface was like an old-fashioned TV, covered with twisting snowflake patterns. The ship's main brain even reported the current status of the flagship in an extremely stuttering voice.
"Attention... Fortress C area... serious logical error."
"Macro electronics... invalidated..."
"Warning... repair... failed..."
"Titan... lost contact."
Faced with this doomsday scene, Xu Mingqi became more and more dazed.
But...
maybe because the information flow attack was about to end, or maybe because he was used to this feeling, at this moment, Xu Mingqi felt that the buzzing sound in his mind had weakened a lot.
He raised his head with difficulty and looked at the huge porthole on the side, trying to observe the situation outside.
Just one glance, he was stunned.
Outside the porthole, the light of the three Titan motherships had completely extinguished, whether it was the golden shield or the light in the porthole of the Titan mothership, they were all dim.
During the stimulation period of these three 5,000-kilometer-scale ships, they were like three huge pieces of scrap metal, floating silently in the starry sky.
Further away.
The scarlet eyes of the giant scorpion dimmed visibly, and the triangular flesh wings that originally emitted a white light also drooped completely on the dark purple carapace.
Obviously, this information flow attack brought them a lot of burden.
But unlike the Titan mothership and the flagship fortress.
They have not lost their combat effectiveness!
In Xu Mingqi's trance, the huge giant scorpion suddenly disappeared in the starry sky.
When it appeared again, it was already beside Titan II.
Boom! !
The scorpion's tail drew a beautiful arc and fiercely pierced into the armor made of dense quark material. Without the ship-borne shield, the ship's defense has been greatly reduced.
Crack!
Although the vacuum cannot transmit sound, looking at the cut-off ship, Xu Mingqi still felt the crisp and loud breaking sound in his ears.
Driven by the air pressure in the cabin, countless debris sprayed out from the broken ship, and in the blink of an eye, it floated in the empty starry sky.
It was like fine ice crystals, shining under the gradually converging white light.
Xu Mingqi's lips trembled slightly, and his blood-stained face showed an expression that seemed to be crying and laughing.
It's over.
Even though they had a lot of psychological preparation, they had never had any relevant combat experience and still greatly underestimated the lethality of information flow weapons.
Peacekeeping fleet, I'm afraid...
"Shh..."
Suddenly, the electronic synthesized voice of the cardon changed its tone.
Accompanied by the hissing sound of signal interference, a familiar female voice sounded in the command center:
"Genesis Fortress... has left this universe bubble..."
"Shh... immediately... manually restart the shipborne main brain..."
"Provide long-range strike guidance for Genesis Fortress!"
In the continuous buzzing sound, Xu Mingqi struggled to identify the content of the ship's broadcast.
It's not over yet!
Xu Mingqi's originally dim eyes suddenly became bright!
Although the flagship and the secondary flagship suffered unprecedented damage, but...
Genesis Fortress, here we are! !
He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and stood up from the cold deck with difficulty, and then staggered towards Fang Yunsheng's direction-only the main control console in front of the captain had the corresponding authority to force the restart of the shipborne main brain. The
sequelae of the information flow impact have not yet dissipated.
In the case of losing his sense of balance, Xu Mingqi seemed very difficult to take every step.
Fortunately, this distance is not far.
After several collisions, Xu Mingqi successfully arrived at the main control console.
Relying on some memories in his mind, he roughly opened a mechanical hidden compartment on the main console, then with trembling hands, he pulled the latch in the compartment and forcefully rotated the transparent cover covering the bright red button - in order to avoid accidental operation, this purely mechanical button must have a fool-proof design.
"Damn it..."
"Who the hell designed this restart button!"
"Damn it..." Xu Mingqi panted and threw the rotating transparent cover aside: "Wait, wait until I return to the Academy of Sciences, I must, must change this broken design..."
While complaining, he gritted his teeth and used the last bit of his strength to press the bright red mechanical button in the compartment.
Dong.
The lights in the command center suddenly dimmed, the holographic interface covered with snowflakes disappeared completely, and the hissing in-ship broadcast also stopped abruptly.
Everything became quiet.
A faint firelight came in from the porthole, illuminating the dim command center.
It was the afterglow of the explosion of Titan II.
It was also the only Titan mothership that crashed on the battlefield since the establishment of the Z619 peacekeeping fleet.
But it was not the last one.
Ship No. 1 and Ship No. 3 followed closely behind, and under the attack of the other two giant scorpions, they turned into two brilliant fireballs one after another.
Swish!
The lights came on again, dispelling the darkness in the command center, and a series of holographic interfaces also lit up.
"The logic failure has been successfully eliminated."
"The shipboard shield has been reconstructed."
A golden light lit up outside the porthole, and the reconstructed shipboard shield once again wrapped the entire flagship fortress.
"A large number of casualties have been detected, and the captain's physical condition has been detected to be abnormal. The highest control authority has been transferred to Academician Xu Mingqi."
"..." Xu Mingqi, who was slumped on the cold deck again, took a breath and gave a command in a low voice, "Master brain, start long-range strike guidance."
"Initiate fleet broadcast."
"All warships, stop all offensive actions, defend with all your strength, run the Genesis unit at full power, run code: 003."
"Received."
"The long-range strike guidance program is starting..."
Listening to the cold electronic synthesized sound echoing in the quiet command center, Xu Mingqi leaned against the main console and moved his eyes to the porthole on the side with some fatigue.
God knows how he survived the impact of the information flow!
The golden light outside the porthole became more and more dazzling, which was the appearance of the ship-borne shield operating power climbing to the extreme.
Outside the golden light, three giant scorpions had quietly approached the flagship fortress that was almost down, and they simultaneously raised their scorpion tails that flashed cold light under the golden light.
"Guidance successful."
The electronic synthesized voice became increasingly cold, and even faintly revealed a murderous atmosphere: "Rule strike countdown: 3, 2, 1..."
Wow!!!
When the countdown reached zero, when the three scorpion tails smashed down and were about to touch the ship's shield, an invisible wave came from outside the cosmic bubble.
It silently passed through the tough cosmic membrane and burned a huge hole in it again.
It passed from the fifth dimension to the fourth dimension, the third dimension...
In the end, this strange wave completely enveloped this starry sky!
The eternal rules that permeated this starry sky quietly changed within the scale of a Planck time!
