I Am the Swarm

Chapter 274 Space Octopus

The thousand-meter Riken warship, if placed within the planet's atmosphere, would naturally be a gigantic monster. But if it is placed in space, it will only be a giant in the sea of ​​sand.

As for the projectiles that spanned 600 million kilometers, even if they were launched last, the locked position of the Riken battleship was correct. However, under the influence of various forces during the flight, and then fly for more than a day, the probability of hitting the target is very low.

Coupled with the last emergency evasion of the Ricken fleet, hundreds of shells flew by, and in the end only one battleship was shattered on the left side armor, and retreated to the rear for emergency repairs.

However, although this round of bombardment had few results, it disrupted the defensive formation of the Ricken fleet. Under emergency evasion, some forts could no longer lock on to their previous targets due to angle problems.

Space warfare is a three-dimensional combat environment. Not only do you have to consider the enemies from all angles, up, down, left, and right, but you also need to consider the angle of your own hull and the blocking of friendly forces. There are too many factors to consider.

The artificial intelligence calculated for a while, the turret rotated, and the respective targets were redistributed according to the current formation.

"Fire!"

"emission!"

The moment the unknown flying object entered the effective range, the Riken fleet opened fire in unison. More than 300 warships and more than 2,000 high-powered main batteries fired several salvos, firing tens of thousands of energy beams.

For a moment, dense light beams streaked across the starry sky, which was spectacular.

The locked "cannonballs" didn't wait to die, as the blue arc flickered, the plasma engine organs worked at full strength, and the "cannonballs" also made a round of evasion.

This made the Liken tribe dumbfounded.

"Fuck, what the hell are these things?"

"The distance is too far, and they are very flexible. Long-distance interception attacks are useless!"

"Then we can only wait for them to get closer."

A few minutes later, the Rickens made a second attack.

This time it was much closer. In addition, the Likens summed up the experience of the first round and re-optimized the algorithm. Although the "cannonballs" tried their best to evade, they were still hit by more than a dozen.

A few fireworks exploded, and then the "cannonballs" that were hit also "exploded". From its body, a large number of octopus creatures spewed out. The small ones were only a few meters long, and the large ones were tens of meters long. They scattered like "slurry" that exploded.

Afterwards, blue arcs flashed on their bodies, and they rushed to the nearby "cannonballs" under the flashes, and then disappeared.

"What is that?!" It is estimated that in the past two days, the Liken tribe has uttered the most words. They are like uninformed bumpkins, and they keep asking questions in surprise.

"Could this be their warship?" A staff officer guessed uncertainly.

"You mean they shot the battleship over?"

"Then what's in their stomachs?"

"Pilot?"

"Although they look alike, the difference in size is too great."

A series of questions engulfed many Riken tribes, but this did not delay them ordering to continue the attack.

After several rounds of attacks, more than 200 of the incoming "cannonballs" were blown up, and more than half of them still passed through the fire blockade and reached 50,000 kilometers away from the Riken fleet.

And a lot of things in the stomach of the "cannonball" ran out, but in fact the loss was not as much as it seemed.

At this time, the incoming "cannonballs" had already entered the attack range of medium-range weapons. There were more of these smaller secondary guns, reaching tens of thousands of them. Correspondingly, their power was also slightly smaller.

Energy beams that were several times denser than before shot out. Although the incoming "cannonballs" tried their best to avoid them, as the distance approached, the body above 500 meters still seemed a little clumsy. In addition, the firepower of the Liken tribe was too fierce, and the "cannonballs" were still blown up one by one.

These ancient-level space octopuses, in order to increase the carrying capacity, have already removed the electromagnetic gun components before departure, so they are now purely transport units, and the battle will begin after they are blown up.

The "cannonballs" were all wiped out before they entered a distance of 30,000 kilometers from the Riken fleet, but the Riken tribe ushered in more large-scale attacks.

Although the large "cannonballs" were all blown up, they were several times more than before, and the small "cannonballs" dozens of times followed closely behind. They were covered in blue arc flashes and rushed towards the Riken fleet at an extremely fast speed. .

Thirty thousand kilometers, at the speed of the space octopus accelerating to the limit, it only takes more than ten minutes to cross, and the energy they store is already enough to support them to fight a low-intensity war within this distance.

But obviously, the scale of the war in front of us is far beyond this intensity, so energy should still be used sparingly.

Due to the limit output of their own energy, their stature could no longer remain invisible, and the Rickon tribe also saw the true colors of these things for the first time.

"What the hell is this thing?" Multiplied by N

"Is this the combat arm of biological civilization? It seems that they are alive."

"Don't fucking analyze, they are coming, space torpedoes are ready."

The Riken fleet has a tight protective net, long-range main guns, medium-range secondary guns, medium- and short-range torpedo missiles, and short-range attack arrays.

Among them, although the torpedo missiles are not the mainstream technology of the Riken tribe, they can provide good attack and defense capabilities within a certain distance, and they also have a tracking function, so Riken warships are also equipped with a lot of such weapons .

On the battleship, the shields of the hidden launch hatches were opened, and slender missiles were ejected. As they flew out, the tail propellers ignited, and the fire control system at the front of the shells, with the help of the battleship's artificial intelligence, locked on to their respective targets.

Then, they dragged their long smoke tails and flew towards their respective targets.

But although the flying speed of this kind of space torpedo is also very fast, it is still too slow compared to the speed of the energy beam, and it is not much faster than the space octopus, so their attack effect is not good.

Equipped with dynamic vision beyond the limit, space octopuses are very good at dealing with such slower weapons. When missiles are close, they can even dodge and wrap their arms and legs around them while avoiding missiles.

But for a civilization of the level of the Rikens, missiles don't just need to be hit to explode. It's not difficult to install a detonating device on the missile.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Bright fireworks lit up in space, and some space octopuses operated by the show were smashed and injured.

When the space octopuses are fighting, they are all controlled by knights behind them. Although they don't have creative thinking, they are not bad at all in other aspects, or even better.

After they saw this scene, they immediately moved away from these long sticks with burning buttocks.

At the speed of a space octopus, dodging these things is not difficult.
