"General, the fleet's firepower is beginning to fail."
The fleet surrounding the monster continued to fire, but as the monster was slowly built, a large number of energy particle cannons began to lose their effect and were reflected by the smooth mirror surface.
"Switch to kinetic cannon." The general said calmly.
"Yes, General." After that, the communicator continued to give orders.
"We received a reply that the warship's kinetic cannon ammunition reserves are low and are expected to be exhausted in 30 minutes."
"I know."
Afterwards, the dazzling light cannon in the picture gradually disappeared, replaced by a dull and unpretentious kinetic electromagnetic cannon. The sturdy shells rushed out of the barrel after being accelerated through the long electromagnetic track and headed towards the deep space.
A few minutes later, the shells reached the surface of the monster, smashing the smooth and huge mirror and forming various cracked fragments on the surface.
"Now, keep firing the laser cannon." The general ordered again.
"yes!"
Afterwards, the brilliant light cannon shone again in the cold and silent space, and a torrent of hot high-energy particles shone on the surface of the monster, evaporating and melting it, gradually exposing the twisted gray-white flesh inside.
Such an annihilation attack was like a meat scraper, scraping off layer by layer of its internal body, and it kept changing direction in the struggle, using its intact side to resist the annihilation light cannon.
"Re-switch the kinetic cannon and fire again." The general repeated the order.
"Understood." Now the communicator also knew what was going to happen.
Soon the fleet in space changed again and switched to kinetic artillery fire.
The shells carrying huge kinetic energy penetrated and shattered the mirror surface, destroying its refraction and reflection capabilities. Then the light cannon came again, cutting down its body once again.
This process continued over and over again. One day passed, then two days passed, and the monster's body became smaller day by day. However, on the third day, other changes seemed to have occurred.
A brand new mirror surface was formed, but its reflectivity seemed to have decreased compared to the past. The surface was a transparent layer, and the inside was a reflective silver mirror. When the kinetic energy bullet hit the surface again, it was like hitting an extremely tough and thick jelly. Although it shook it slightly and a small hole appeared, the mirror inside did not shatter. The subsequent light cannon shots were also refracted and reflected in large quantities, making it difficult to be effective.
Compared with the original mirror, this kind of protection has reduced its ability to resist annihilation cannons by about 20%, but its ability to defend against kinetic cannons has increased several times. There are only small bullet holes and craters, which will not have much impact on the overall situation.
"It's getting harder and harder to deal with." It's a good thing that humans can learn and improve on their own, but it's hard to be happy when this good thing happens to the enemy.
Faced with the fleet's increasingly ineffective attacks, the general had no choice but to order them to suspend their attacks and retreat for recuperation and replenishment.
"The situation has reached a stalemate." Vimiya looked at the standard silver octahedron in the picture, then turned to look at Loran Hill beside her.
"Um."
Loran Hill lowered his head and thought slowly, wondering if there was any good way to solve this stubborn nail in the chaotic phantom.
It is indeed difficult to deal with, but it is not extremely critical, because after losing its previous speed, it will probably take decades for this monster to fly near the earth. They have plenty of time to deal with it. This is why they spend a lot of energy building defenses in the outer layer of the star system. Even if some accidents occur, there is plenty of time to buffer.
"Let it go for now and see how things go."
If there are no more such monsters in the attacking Chaos Phantoms and everything goes smoothly, then they can slowly study and find a way to deal with this monster. If various accidents occur later, then they can simply wake up Katie. With her ability, it should not be difficult to destroy these monsters. But the downside is that the display of Sequence Ten is like lighting a lighthouse in the sea of stars, which will attract more Chaos Phantoms in the future.
Over the next ten days, the fleet and the Annihilation Cannon continued to methodically deal with the incoming Chaos Phantom Sea. However, due to the lack of key barriers, supply became difficult, forcing the fleet to slowly retreat and give up a large amount of space.
Six months later, a new line of defense was established in the rear, and the previously patrolling No. 2 Space Wall moved to an area closer to the engagement point, becoming the new command and logistics center.
The battle began again, and a large number of chaotic phantoms began to be cleared and eliminated.
Four days later, the observation ships surrounding the "monster" reported that it had started moving again, targeting Barrier No. 2.
"The situation has worsened." Inside the command center, several important staff officers and generals discussed how to respond.
"We must not abandon Barrier No. 2." The general spoke first.
"However, the Sky Barrier's mobility is limited. It can't escape the monster's pursuit in terms of speed."
"Furthermore, if we escape, the fleet won't be able to resupply, and it will be difficult to clean up after the annihilation cannons are destroyed."
"Cleanup is crucial. Otherwise, these chaotic phantoms will spread across the Yinval Galaxy like billions of mosquitoes that cannot be shielded, causing numerous troubles and even disasters."
Therefore, the discussion came to a stalemate, while the monster shown on the 3D map was getting closer.
After a long silence, someone suddenly came up with an idea: "Can we blow it up from the inside?"
"I mean, we're going to make a hole in the surface, and then send a powerful annihilation bomb in to explode it."
"This is very difficult. First of all, the interference faced by remotely operating the drone is extremely large. Moreover, it has recently learned to rotate, and we must keep up with its synchronous speed in order to enter before the cavity heals."
