A collective gasp filled the command center: "Hiss..."
Not only were we amazed by the gravity bomb's incredible speed, but we were also astonished by the method described by Lü Yongchang!
It sounds simple, but in reality, completing the screening and checking of this data in such a short time is quite challenging...
Is this really something a human could do?!
For a moment, even Fang Xu's gaze toward Lü Yongchang became strange.
Lu Yongchang also noticed the strange looks in everyone's eyes, but at this moment his mind was entirely focused on the gravity bombs launched by the enemy ship.
He spread his hands with a hint of helplessness: "I know this method is a bit clumsy."
"There's nothing we can do. Currently, we have no means of observing starships that have entered warp drive mode."
"Only by conducting a thorough search through those subtle changes in gravity can we possibly track its trajectory."
"Therefore," Lü Yongchang paused slightly, "we need a large number of detectors!"
“A great many detectors.” He emphasized again, “Only by monitoring the gravitational fluctuations across the entire battlefield in real time can we possibly implement evasive maneuvers in advance.”
After his speech, everyone temporarily put aside their "amazement" at Lü Yongchang.
Cao Liangcai's calm voice rang out from the side.
"Professor, we can modify the existing detector by reducing its specifications."
"Each detector only needs the most basic gravity detection module and communication module."
“We can remove all the other functions, including the power system.”
“It only needs to be in a fixed area, just like…” Cao Liangcai paused, as if he was carefully choosing his words.
Suddenly, his eyes brightened, he gently patted his palm, and exclaimed loudly, "Float!"
"That's right, it's a float!"
Lu Yongchang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Very vivid.
Just like a fishing float, this simplest gravity detector, when scattered across the battlefield, can help humanity find gravity bombs "lurking" in the universe!
"Design plan..."
"Almost done!" Cao Liangcai quickly operated the holographic projector in front of him. "The basic detector is a modular design; I only need to make minor modifications to put it into production!"
Lu Yongchang nodded in satisfaction and added, "Reduce its size as much as possible to reduce the likelihood of it being attacked."
"...Okay." While nodding, Cao Liangcai quickly waved his fingers a few times, making some modifications to the original design.
Lü Yongchang turned his head and cast his gaze towards
"Zero, adjust computing power allocation immediately."
"Make the creation of [Gravity Float] the top priority."
"I want to see it cover the entire battlefield!!!"
"receive."
Accompanied by the electronic synthesized sound of zero, the space factories quickly ceased their manufacturing operations.
At the same time, a brand new manufacturing task has begun!
Like laying eggs, one after another, gravity floats equipped only with gravity detection functions appeared at the end of the production line!
Lacking a propulsion system, the drones, under Zero's control, towed these "gravity floats" towards the designated area.
...
Bosa Fleet.
Looking at the latest data presented before it, a large stick insect showed a hint of disappointment.
"Commander, the effectiveness of the warp bombs has decreased."
“That’s normal,” Commander Bosa said calmly. “That’s the inherent flaw of gravity bombs.”
"but."
"This is precisely the advantage of gravity bombs."
"Have you noticed? Their fleet is much more disorganized than before."
“Isn’t this perfect?” Commander Bosa’s small eyes gleamed with fanaticism.
"Break through their defensive lines directly!"
"I want to see how they produce these annoying little gadgets after their production facilities are destroyed!"
As it spoke, it glared fiercely at the drone that was relentlessly hurtling towards the warship through the porthole.
A burst of light from an explosion lit up the porthole, illuminating its profile, which was covered by an exoskeleton.
It withdrew its disgusted gaze and shouted:
"Tighten the outer defenses and break through!"
"Wait!" A shout from a large stick insect interrupted Commander Bosa's voice. "The enemy fleet is also tightening its lines!"
"They sensed our intentions!"
Commander Bossa, interrupted, quickly glanced at the footage on the active detection equipment and couldn't help but curse angrily, "Damn it!"
"Those cunning level four insects!"
"Continue firing warp bombs!"
"I'm going to bomb them so badly they won't dare to tighten their lines!!"
"...Commander!" a Bosa crewman shouted in a high-pitched voice, "The enemy has sent out drones again!"
Commander Bosa scoffed: "The same attack pattern again?"
"Once the drones get close, bombard them with gravity bombs." A hint of disdain flashed in its eyes as it sneered, "I want to see just how many drones this ugly level four bug can produce!"
Under the watchful eyes of the Bosa people, these drones quickly arrived at the center of the two fleets.
Then……
After a brief pause, he turned and left.
"This..." Commander Bosa was bewildered. "What do they want to do?"
A crew member quickly deployed a series of detectors, braving endless gunfire, to the area where the drone had once landed.
Finally, after sacrificing the lives of thousands of probes, Commander Bosa obtained an image.
A detector of extremely small size.
Compared to warships that are thousands of meters long, this cube-shaped detector with sides less than a meter long looks incredibly small!
"Commander, the analysis results are in."
"This detector only has gravity detection capabilities, and its detection accuracy is very low."
"Based on my guess, the human fleet probably wants to rely on these detectors to find the trajectory of the warp bombs."
Upon hearing his subordinate's remarks, Commander Bosa couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Interesting, very interesting." Its body trembled slightly, its blowhole opened and closed rapidly, and its mouthparts moved quickly. "No wonder the master noticed them!"
"They actually think they can find a gravitational bomb that has entered warp drive with these crude detectors!"
The crew members of the Bosa ship standing nearby couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The warp bomb has a top speed of ten times the speed of light, and it takes no more than fifty seconds from launch to impact with the target.
In other words, from the moment the detector observes the gravitational fluctuations, to determining the impact zone, and then to the warship executing its evasive maneuvers...
All operations must be compressed to within twenty-five seconds.
Commander Bosa chuckled and shook his head: "While they tighten their lines, continue firing warp bombs."
"If these level four insects can use this to evade warp bomb attacks, then there won't be such a huge gap between level five and level four civilizations!"
