Alien Relic Hunter

In fact, the ancient battleship originally had another name. If read in the language of the Alpha civilization, it was called "Eternity". When Ke Lan started the battleship console for the first time, the information that poured into his mind included the name. But at that time, Ke Lan felt that this name was too middle-of-the-road, and many science fiction works had warships or space stations with this name, so after taking control of the warship, he immediately The name was changed to "Yagunaktor".

Although it is more convoluted than the Eternity, at least it is not easy to confuse... Besides, in the files of the Undead Crew Association and the Security Bureau, "Aguna Kotor" is used as the name of this ancient battleship. code name, so there is nothing wrong with changing it to this name.

After taking control, Ke Lan and "Yagunaktor" established a wonderful "neural connection", but this connection only activated when Ke Lan was inside or near the battleship. Effect, and now, he is in the core of the Gray Mist Forest, a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from "Yagunaktor". Logically speaking, it is impossible for neural connections to span such a long distance.

But he received the message from "Yagunaktor" in the Tower of Babel.

Moreover, this message also claimed that "Yagunaktor" is under attack!

…

N45 airspace, combat zone.

After the air combat units of other warships rushed to support, the situation on the "New Dawn" finally eased slightly. The Veyron-class fighters and variable flying mechas that returned to the mothership for supplies and repairs also Returning to the battlefield, Yeager and Hans suddenly felt that the pressure was greatly reduced.

"Huh... It seems we can take a breather for the time being." Yeager said, "My cannon shells have been completely burned out, and the core module of the laser cannon has also melted due to multiple overheating. Now the weapons can be used on the entire machine. There are only three unguided missiles left... If the other side releases another batch of drones, I'm afraid I will have no choice but to fly my plane into them."

"'Betelgeuse' is a bit far away from us. If we go back to supply now, I'm afraid it will be affected by the opponent's naval guns... My suggestion is that we directly let the 'New Dawn' be responsible for our supply operations. The current situation is special. I don’t think the flagship will refuse our request.”

"Okay, okay, but I'm afraid the flagship doesn't have the spare parts for old-fashioned fighter jets like ours..." Yeger sighed, "I heard that two months ago, all the flagship's carrier-based aircraft were replaced by Veyron-class aircraft. "

"If that doesn't work, let them give us two Veyrons... Anyway, the Veyrons and Ravens use the same operating mode. The difference in performance will be something you can quickly get used to after getting started." Hans said .

"You have a pretty good idea. To be honest, I also want to fly the Veyron class, but I'm afraid there won't be many aircraft left for us." Yeager continued, "Although the number of carrier-based aircraft is generally based on It is equipped with 1.2 to 1.5 times the number of pilots. However, just after the first round of battle, the fighters that returned were seriously damaged and could not be repaired in a short time... The batch they have launched now The fighter jets are probably the extra inventory. Hey, good things are reserved for the 'aces', not us."

Although Yeager and Hans can compete with the ace pilots on the flagship with their qualifications and driving skills, they were transferred from the Ark Guards Fleet after all, and they have been in service for more than ten years. , but did not participate in many actual battles. Almost all of the "ace pilots" deployed on the flagship were transferred back from front-line theaters.

According to the old era, the two are equivalent to the imperial guards guarding the capital and the border guards guarding the border - the former must have the best treatment and equipment, but in terms of combat effectiveness and combat experience, the border guards who have withstood the baptism of war all year round The army is definitely not comparable to any inland army... Actual combat and training are different after all.

For example, in the battle just now, whenever more than five drones broke through the blockade, those "aces" transferred back from the front-line theaters would not hesitate to crash into them... If Yeger was Put in the same situation as Hans, they would most likely hesitate, at least not so decisively.

"Let's go. I'll be thankful that the flagship can help us replenish the propeller fuel and ammunition. If possible, I like them to replace me with a laser module with a higher power... Wait!"

Just when Yeager and Hans were preparing to go to the hangar of the "New Dawn" for supplies, dozens of humanoid mechas suddenly flew out of the aircraft carrier battleship of the Black Fleet, and they exceeded the power limit of the flying mechas. Flying towards the "New Dawn" at a fast speed.

"What is that? A mecha? Or a humanoid one... How can a humanoid mecha fly so fast?!" Yeager couldn't help but shout.

"It seems... they have large propellers installed on their backs... but that level of G-force, even if you wear an anti-gravity suit and a deep-submersible cockpit, the human body can't withstand it... unless the pilots of these machines All the members are high-level enhanced people." Hans murmured.

The officers and soldiers of Fleet Zero were unfamiliar and surprised by these humanoid mechas that suddenly appeared. However, if Hound and others or soldiers who participated in the Battle of the Ancient Bronze City Ruins saw these mechas, they would be shocked to see these mechas at this moment. Call out the name directly——

"Fallen Angel Mass Production Type".

It was the mecha that the Undead Crew copied based on the Alpha Civilization's "blasphemer mecha"... It's not so much a mecha as it is a semi-mechanical, semi-biological cutting-edge weapon, in a semi-awake state. The living CPU is directly bound to the mecha's operating system through neural links, which can not only maximize the performance of the weapon, but also integrate human combat experience and combat instincts with AI operations. It is simply... perfect killing machine.

These "weapons" are stored in cryogenic warehouses during non-war times, and when "they" need to be used, electric shocks will be used to wake up the living CPUs in deep sleep - but these living CPUs will not be completely When they wake up, their brains have undergone multiple "surgeries" and have permanently lost the ability to think for themselves.

The only thing that has been preserved is the nerve center responsible for movement... There is one thing that the Undead Crew Association did not tell Ke Lan and the others. The living CPU of the "Fallen Angel Mass Production Type" does not have to be limited to ace pilots. Soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles, Senior relic hunters who have escaped death many times, notorious mercenaries... and even illegal boxers in the underground black market can all be excellent candidates for the living CPU.

After all, this thing is not controlled by joysticks and keyboards. The Fallen Angel mecha is more like an extension of human hands and feet... The parts it requires can actually be reduced to a brain and a spine... However, due to the nerve connection The technology of refuting is not yet perfect, so the torso and limbs of the living CPU are preserved, and are also connected to the body's motion module through electrodes.

"So fast! Twenty seconds, no! We will meet the enemy in ten seconds!" Yeger shouted, "I can't lock on these things, retreat! Let's retreat!"

His left hand held the control stick tightly, and his right hand crackled and knocked wildly on the control panel. Suddenly, the propeller nozzles under the wings on both sides turned 180 degrees, and tail flames more than ten meters long were sprayed forward. came out, pushing the entire Raven-class fighter jet back quickly.

But Hans' reaction was a bit slow - although the fixed bracket of the propeller can be adjusted at all angles, actually turning the propeller 180 degrees is an illegal method strictly prohibited in the operation manual, because Ye Geer often likes to study some unconventional operations, so he can unlock and change control instructions in just one second, but Hans is different.

After hearing Yeger telling him to retreat, he had no choice but to turn the plane's nose... He was only two or three seconds slower than Yeger, and everything was too late.

The time it took for those humanoid mechas to break into the blockade of Fleet Zero's air combat troops was not twenty seconds, nor ten seconds, but only six seconds.

The back of each "Fallen Angel Mass Production Model" is equipped with a propeller several times larger than the body. Four fuel tanks more than thirty meters long are bundled together. High-performance chemical fuel and high-grade energy crystals are provided at the same time. The thrusters provide energy - from the moment they leave the mothership, these aircraft are constantly accelerating. When they rush forward, the actual speed has even exceeded Mach 10.

Mach 10...that is, ten times the speed of sound, can cover a distance of 3,400 meters in one second...if this was a fighter jet, the pilot would have passed out due to excessive G force at this time. .

But living CPUs will not be comatose...because they are always in a coma.

Even if the brain immersed in LCL liquid shuts down due to G-force, the brain of the living CPU will be awakened again through an electric shock.

The mass-produced models of Fallen Angels are disposable consumables, and those who use them will not care about the damage to the living CPU... For such weapons that are equivalent to losses when attacking, users will inevitably find ways to squeeze out all their value. .

After a mass-produced Fallen Angel broke into the blocking formation of the Zero Fleet's air combat unit, it threw away the large propeller installed behind it, performed several somersaults in mid-air to resolve the huge inertia, and then pulled out the large propeller hanging on the waist. The heavy armor-piercing sword on the side.

Not far in front of this mass-produced Fallen Angel, there happened to be a Raven-class high-speed fighter that had just completed a U-turn.

Due to the first angle of view, Hans did not notice the mecha that rushed in more than ten meters behind him, but Yeager, who retreated by "reversing into the warehouse", saw this scene clearly.

He watched helplessly as the headless black mecha raised its arms, and then threw the red-edged sword-shaped weapon in its hand towards Hans's phone.

In order to save costs, the mass-produced armor-piercing sword of Fallen Angel does not adopt the same structure as the Blasphemer mecha. There is no energy shield generator or special magnetic field used to restrain the energy shield inside the sword body. It is to simply and crudely heat the Nino alloy sword blade to a high temperature of thousands of degrees, and use this method to improve the cutting ability of the armor-piercing sword.

The red sword blade was like a utility knife cutting paper, cutting Hans's plane in half without any hindrance. Hans, who was sitting in the cockpit, didn't even have a chance to eject and parachute, and was hit by the high temperature. The blade was carbonized and turned into fine ash floating in the air.

As for the two pieces of wreckage of the Raven fighter, they fell straight down and then exploded in mid-air.

"Hans!!" Seeing his former partner's aircraft transformed into an inconspicuous firework on the battlefield, Yeger's eyes were splitting. He roared loudly and turned the propeller that was originally ejected forward to the rear. At the same time, the power limiting valve of the energy crystal engine was released, increasing the engine's output power to 300% of the rated power in one breath!

Logically speaking, the energy crystal engine of Yeager's plane should have turned into a crystal energy bomb at this time, blowing him and the fighter to pieces, but probably Goddess Luck took another look at him at this time, even though the screen was full of There were bright red warning texts, but the engine miraculously did not explode and remained in a relatively stable operating condition.

"The ground crew is really... awesome." Yeager knew in his heart that he was still alive entirely because of the ground crew - the ground crew he knew well knew that he liked to play tricks and perform extreme operations, so he A lot of "tricks" have been put into this engine of mine. If we insist on calculating the cost, for the same type of engine, the cost of the engine of our fighter jet is at least three times that of other Raven-class engines.

"Asshole! Die! Give me back Hans' life!!" Yeager roared, driving the Raven fighter towards the mass-produced Fallen Angel that shot down Hans - of course, until At this time, he still didn't know the name of the other party's body.

The remaining three unguided missiles were all launched and hit the mecha - the mecha's armor was very thick and seemed to be made of pure Nino alloy. The unguided missiles did not target it. It caused no real damage other than a few minor scratches.

But for Yeager, these three missiles were just a cover. The real "missiles" were actually the Raven-class fighter he was driving.

He tripled the engine power to overload not just for acceleration, but to turn the fighter jet into a high-speed moving crystal energy bomb!

"I don't believe it... without that large thruster... with the speed of this piece of shit like yours... you can escape..." Blood overflowed from the corner of Yeger's mouth, and the excessive G-force pressed him so hard that he felt like he was His internal organs seemed to be about to burst, but he still held the joystick tightly and did not relax at all.
