I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

On September 18, 3121, the prism fleet arrived as scheduled with an unparalleled sense of oppression.

But the people in the shadow galaxy were not panicked.

This was already within the predictions of the empire's high-level officials, and humans had already made adequate plans.

The periphery of the entire shadow galaxy has already been laid by humans with a huge booby trap zone with a thickness of 100 million kilometers.

The number of booby traps exceeds one trillion.

A single booby trap is only about the size of a fist, and is like dust dispersed outside the Dyson membrane. Each of them rotates around the huge galaxy along a fixed orbit.

The distribution of booby traps is mainly close to the ecliptic plane and is the most dense.

However, in order to maintain a certain level of intelligence capabilities above the ecliptic plane, there are still a small number of booby traps whose orbits are at different angles to the ecliptic plane, ultimately forming a large elongated egg-cake shape similar to a Dyson membrane. net.

Because the booby traps are too far away from the shadow sun, relying on the purely natural gravitational field of stars cannot firmly limit the booby traps to a fixed range to form a stable booby trap area.

Therefore, every booby trap is equipped with a field energy engine.

The so-called field energy engine is actually a variant of the similar curvature engine, but its output power is much smaller than that of the similar curvature engine, and it hardly compresses space. It only uses a huge gravitational field to apply a little steering force.

Under the traction of the field energy engine and the precise control of the stars, trillions of booby traps each revolve along criss-crossing orbits, but they will not collide with each other, maintaining a delicate balance and allowing The number of booby traps distributed within a unit area is relatively stable.

There are two types of booby traps. One is the passive type that will detonate after physical object collision or energy field interference.

The other is an active type that is controlled by the dual control of quantum network and gravitational wave network. When an enemy appears within a fixed range, the field energy engine will be overloaded with full power to complete rapid advancement and detonation.

The explosion methods of active booby traps include antimatter impact, dark energy black hole, compression fusion explosion, beam energy shock wave diffusion, etc.

The passive type, which accounts for a larger proportion, is a special plasma flow electromagnetic shock wave originating from a special planetary system.

After the plasma magnetic booby trap is exploded, a large amount of liquid special alloy will be thrown out in all directions, which is called heteromagnetic plasma flow.

The biggest feature of these liquid alloys is that they have extremely strong magnetism. Their magnetism has strong metal resonance capabilities and will cause high-frequency reversal of the North and South Pole at a frequency of 100,000 times per second.

According to the experience of the confrontation between the Morrowind Empire and the Prism Ship in the past twenty or thirty years, when the number of plasma magnetic booby blasts reaches a certain base and there are enough heteromagnetic plasma flows within a fixed range, the Compound Eye Prism Ship will jump The ability will be slightly restrained, no longer so stable, and there is a possibility of operational errors.

Then with the combat style of the Compound Eyes, the prism ship will be able to give up the jump decisively.

In addition, the gradually spreading mutated magnetic field will also become a guiding light in quantum scanning, which can help humans quickly and effectively locate the compound-eye prism ship.

The shape of the prism ship this time has not changed from last time. It is still a structure made up of two pyramids with a length of 300 kilometers.

The chain array fortress ships that humans have arranged outside the ten-layer Dyson membrane layer are spherical in shape with a diameter of 400 kilometers. There are three million ships, each fortress has a thousand people, and there are a total of three billion ship-borne warriors.

The thousands of people on the fortress starship each have different responsibilities and perform their own duties. With the assistance of artificial intelligence, a thousand warriors can control the fortress starship.

Each fortress ship has a large main battleship controlled by one hundred people, ten medium-sized frigates controlled by ten people, and one hundred senior warriors who operate variable-form high-performance fighters.

This shape-changing high-performance fighter is the prototype of the Star Shadow Armor.

Although the soldiers on these ships were not selected into Chen Feng's teaching class and could not receive Chen Feng's personal guidance, they were still eligible to have access to the training materials written by Chen Feng.

At the same time, the training instructors of these people also participated in the instructor training course headed by Ding Hu.

After four months of assault training, these already elite soldiers have improved a lot.

Combined with the constantly updated and upgraded equipment, although the comprehensive strength of these fighter operators working with the chain formation fortress ships is not as good as that of the authentic Star Shadow Warriors, they are still among the best.

Chen Feng observed that mankind’s concept of war is changing.

Although the core control of most of the main ships is still in human hands, the number of crew members on the ships is significantly different from the previous timeline.

The number of members on each ship in this timeline is much smaller than in the past.

In the past, to maintain a fortress ship with a diameter of four hundred kilometers required at least tens of thousands of people to cooperate.

Now there are only less than 300 people, and most positions can be assigned two to three people in shifts.

Within a unit of space, assuming that the current total human military force is the same size, the population density of military personnel is much lower.

The reason is that humans have stepped out on a large scale, developed more stars, obtained more energy, and at the same time discovered more planets and obtained more special materials that cannot be obtained by relying on mass-energy conversion.

The double surplus of energy and materials has created the possibility for humans to build more luxurious large-scale war units.

At the same time, due to the improved performance of the stars, human beings have conducted more in-depth research on quantum networks, and the security level of quantum communication has continued to improve. Human beings have begun to dare to hand over more important tasks to artificial intelligence, and finally formed such a new war model.

When the war first began, humankind's concept of war was not so extreme.

But in the past hundred years, as the war progressed, mankind's strategic policy has gradually shifted from shooting down enemy ships to collecting information, and exchanging troops for more information has become the top priority.

At the same time, in order to gradually improve the survival probability of the escape fleet and make it more difficult for the Compound Eyes to pursue them, humans began to increasingly advocate the strategy of breaking them into parts.

There are even many escape ships with only one family on board. Once encountering a situation, each person can even drive a small escape shuttle to escape alone.

A total of twenty frozen embryos, 10 boys and 10 girls, were also loaded into the single-person escape shuttle.

This is the minimum standard that can barely guarantee that there will be no incest within three generations.

As long as they can get out of a boat, these 20 embryos will have the opportunity to reproduce an entire population with the help of artificial intelligence.

Humanity's strategy is quite effective. So far, the Compound Eyes have not completed a complete external eradication. They rely on this new civilization model that is constantly broken into parts.

This pattern is reflected in other star sectors, most notably in the Shadow Galaxy.

At this time, the first magnetic plasma booby trap was detonated, and the flow of heteromagnetic plasma was sprayed, moistening the substance silently on the edge of the ship, and at the same time detonating more passive magnetic plasma booby traps nearby.

The large mutated magnetic field continued to oscillate and gradually spread, turning the prism ship that was approaching instantly into a boulder thrown into the mirror-like horizontal lake, causing waves.

One of the chain fortresses at the front responded quickly and announced the location of the prism ship.

In Morrowind 2, which was far away, a red prism ship suddenly appeared on the star map in front of Chen Feng.

Yes, there is only one.

But the next second, one after another red-red prismatic polygonal structures appeared in all directions of the shadow galaxy, and eventually reached 30,000 ships.

Different from the average dispersion when forming a grid link, this time the 30,000 prism ships were distributed randomly and irregularly.

The Compound Eyes apparently won't be using Grid Link to seal off the galaxy this time.

It is probably because the number of ships is too small and the density of the grid white plasma in the unit space is insufficient to form an effective blockade, so it is simply not used.

Then the compound-eyed man's attack mode is ready to emerge.

A small number of prism ships are responsible for patrolling the outer circle to prevent escape, while most of the prism ships are either scattered or gathered, gradually opening gaps in the human front, and gradually eroding the human strength.

The direction of this small-scale battle is similar to that of the overall battle involving the huge Orion Arm, like a Russian matryoshka doll.

Before gaining a solid advantage, the compound-eyed warship would not rush in hastily.

This will fall into the circle of human beings.

Although humans have never recorded shooting down a prism ship in the long history of war, both sides can clearly feel that the threshold is gradually approaching.

With the capabilities displayed by humans, once the first prism ship is shot down, it is likely to mean that the outcome of the war between the two sides is reversed instantly.

The Compound Eyes will not allow this to happen, never.

As the active booby traps moved rapidly in space, a fierce firefight broke out in the next moment.

In just an instant, about seven thousand bright space flames filled the front of the fortress chain formation.

Most of the flames are concentrated near the ecliptic plane of the star's second orbit, with a small amount distributed in the upper and lower directions of the galaxy.

The prismatic warship, which was temporarily restricted in its high maneuverability and jumping ability, opened its shield as usual, and then opened a crack about thirty kilometers wide in the middle connecting the two pyramid structures. A large number of medium-sized and micro combat units emerged from the inside. It flew out like a wasp from its nest.

There are still a small number of blade beetles, a medium number of eight-legged beetles, and a large number of dragonfly fighters, as well as more turtle-shaped aircraft and self-destructing flies the size of fingernails.

The war weapons of the Compound Eyes have not changed much in form.

But the performance of various equipment still made Chen Feng's eyelids jump.

Now the blade beetle in front of him not only cuts the blade arms with unified force and spits explosive particles, but also has a long flexible tube on its back.

This long tube is obviously a weapon, like a tail that grows backwards from the spine to the top of the head. It is very flexible and can shoot out white beams of light.

Chen Feng recognized this beam of light.

In the previous timeline, it was released from the spherical battleship and caused huge damage to the human fleet at the last moment.

Moreover, the thin shield layer covering the surface of these blade beetles has also changed, showing a silvery glow in the universe, indicating its good reflectivity against energy weapons.

According to the intelligence provided by the army, after the pure physical toxin is applied, the effect is much worse than it was a hundred years ago.

These blade beetles were much stronger than the ones Chen Feng killed personally.

The ball ships wandering outside have not updated their Blade Mantis equipment. The Prism Ships, which have been participating in the war intensively, have changed the Blade Mantis to an unknown version.

The eight-legged beetle has also changed, and its originally slightly clumsy flying speed has become much faster.

The way humans face the enemy has also undergone great changes from Chen Feng's past understanding.

The chain fortress ship did not rush to release manned small and medium-sized combat units, but only countless bowl-shaped aircraft flew out from the hatch in the middle.

Each aircraft is loaded with at most three and at least one type of small arms.

These pure artificial intelligence aircraft use pure media engines. Although the acceleration is not fast enough, they are quite powerful due to their large number.

Before the cannon fodder-level combat units from both sides came into contact, the small units of the Compound Eyes had already taken a drink from the booby trap array.

The Blade Beetle with the ability to make short-range jumps was able to rush forward quickly, but the other units of the Compound Eyes were blown up by countless booby traps and turned upside down.

To pass through the magnetic field turbulence disturbed by plasma magnetic booby traps, the powerful Blade Beetle also has to take some risks.

But these blade beetles must perform leap maneuvers.

The firepower of a single fortress ship is very strong, and if dozens of them approach rashly, the risk of being shot down is not small.

They have to be aggregated first.

The 10th Marshal Peng Zhongyun, who was directly responsible for commanding the first line of defense, performed the operation and began to precharge the heavy weapons of some fortress ships.

Chen Feng scanned it and Peng Zhongyun selected about ten key areas.

One and a half million blade beetles started to jump at the same time.

Only 95% of the blade beetles successfully completed the jump. When the remaining 5% of the blade beetles appeared at the target location, only half of their bodies were left. The other half went somewhere unknown, probably left in an unknown place. In the famous black hole.

There were originally 1.5 million blade beetles, but now there are only 1.42 million left. There are a total of five squads surrounding the shadow galaxy, with an average of nearly 290,000 in each squad.

Four of the teams overlapped with the preheating focus points arranged by Peng Zhongyun in advance.

The moment it reappeared, it was hit head-on by heavy composite cannons from more than a thousand nearby fortress ships.

But one of them appeared in a position that Peng Zhongyun had not judged.

After a short rest, the blade beetle quickly accelerated to half the speed of light, turned into a stream of light in the universe, and rushed forward.

As the more than 280,000 blade beetles entered the fire coverage of the chain fortress formation, the medium-sized weapons of nearly a thousand fortress ships here began to pour out firepower.

Most of the weapons that fired immediately were not energy weapons, but live ammunition weapons, mainly missiles.

High-power energy weapons need to be charged, and only live ammunition weapons can fire as soon as they are told to fire.

Sometimes pre-charging can be performed, but once charging is turned on, it must be launched, and after each launch there will be a certain period of equipment material repair time and energy re-preparation cycle, commonly known as the cooling time.

Missile?

Chen Feng frowned slightly and thought to himself, this is impossible to hit.

Sure enough, the turbulent flow formed by the convergence of the blade beetles suddenly dispersed, and each of them dodged.

Although missiles have tracking and directional capabilities and a certain degree of curvature-like flight capabilities, it is really difficult to track the Blade Mantis, which can easily change directions at half the speed of light.

But this was already expected by the human commander.

The missile detonated in advance, and the gorgeous explosion illuminated the space nearly ten million kilometers in front of the fortress ship into a bright light area like the corona of a star.

Strong shock waves and particle flows formed clusters of "ephemeral stars" in the universe.

The "ephemeral stars" intersect with each other, and the blast shock wave distorts and deforms again, forming a cloud.

But in the blink of an eye, the blade beetle array rushed out of the clouds and continued to advance.

It seems that humans did not take advantage.

"pretty!"

Chen Feng suddenly clenched his fists and growled.

He would not jump to conclusions, but the operation of the human fortress ship just now amazed him.

It turns out that the real purpose of the missile explosion was not the Blade Beetle, but to block the advancement route of the eight-legged beetles and other combat units that were chasing after them. It also destroyed the invisible threads laid along the way by the Blade Beetle at some unknown time.

Chen Feng also recognized this thread. It was similar to the material of the ball captain's long beard, and presumably also had the ability to freeze space.

The Compound Eyes seem to be planning to use the blade beetles to build webs like spiders, and slowly use space freezing technology to freeze the entire periphery of the shadow galaxy.

Now the compound-eyed man's wishful thinking was wrong.

And since human energy can break through the thread, it proves that human explosive weapons can now overcome the freezing power of the thread.

At the same time, in the upper right corner of Chen Feng's vision, some parameters are changing rapidly.

"No. 5 string energy ray flow is undergoing actual combat efficacy testing...

The test result progress is 1%, 2%...7%...33%...100%.

The test was completed. The No. 18, 29, and No. 75 bottom strings modified with the DX2287 star rule can be mixed and blasted, and the Orton No. 3 metal is used as the shrapnel carrier, which can cut the frozen thread in 0.0002 seconds.

The No. 5 string energy fragmentation bullet was successfully developed. "

"In-depth evaluation of weapons, the best propulsion stage is vacuum bubble fusion explosion with single particle neutron shell, which can achieve maximum explosion effect in the shortest time."

At this time, the heavy weapons on the fortress ship were finally charged.

After an instant, the thousand-seat fortress ship once again glowed with colorful light. One after another, like searchlights, but actually containing huge energy, the light beams poured out from the fortress ship.

Characteristic rules and material trigger energy, string energy excited state energy with interlaced longitudinal and transverse waves, boson energy flow with super strong magnetic field oscillation effect, colorless light cannon with an indescribable wavelength, and gamma with intensity comparable to gamma ray bursts Beams, positron injections, anti-proton injections and other terrifying energy weapons bombarded forward from the fortress ship in a fast or slow way, crossing and stacking each other, blocking the direction of the blade beetle into an airtight sheet. The big net.

The more than 280,000 blade beetles also began to suffer rapid casualties.

The progress of the weapon test in the upper right corner of Chen Feng's vision jumped again.

Yes, it only took Chen Feng twenty seconds to fully understand Shadow Galaxy's strategic policy.

test!

This is the eternal theme of the war between the two sides for a hundred years.

Not only that, other fortress ships far away from the Blade Mantis battle zone have also begun to charge giant weapons.

These giant weapons are targeting the prism ship that was briefly trapped in the plasma booby trap.

There are many types of giant weapons.

The black hole spin cannon is a new type of black hole weapon. Although it is not as direct as a black hole bomb, it can temporarily restrain the mass-energy flow similar to the material of a physical black hole and launch it in a columnar form.

The supermassive star's coronal cannon can continuously release terrifying temperatures of more than 30 million degrees.

Chimera fluid missiles are inspired by the saliva of the Chimera bird, a special life form in the special planetary system. It is a strange liquid with extremely strong decomposition ability and performance that exceeds physical toxins.

The lava life gene shock missile simulates the genetic structure of lava life and can release continuous high temperature, and the flames like tarsal bones will devour everything.

As well as empowering the space plant network, this is a new weapon created by humans by integrating the strange life in the special galaxy with the Dyson membrane. It can deploy a large network covering an area of ​​50 million kilometers in space in a very short time. .

This large net will quickly absorb all energy forms it comes into contact with. It has just been successfully developed and has high hopes. Scientific researchers hope that this plant network can absorb the outer shield of the prism ship.

And the even more terrifying Dyson membrane swallowing energy field, which is a specialty of the shadow galaxy. A telescopic Dyson membrane that was briefly close to a physical black hole and was then re-sent out by the death squads with reverse thrust. The molecules inside it are similar to those of a black hole. High-speed oscillation of matter.

This is all a test.

For hundreds of years, humans have performed countless tests of similar scale in countless battles.

The ultimate goal of all tests has never changed - to shoot down the prism and destroy the enemy.

These weapons contain all the imagination and scientific literacy of mankind so far.

Humans have always been trying to integrate all the resources they can see within the Orion Arm.

Human beings continue to understand the depth of the universe better, and then absorb more of the rules of the universe, and then fill their understanding of the universe into military technology without reservation.

This is an ancient material science and technology concept, used in the 31st century.

This concept is called the exhaustive method, which can give infinite changes to limited resources to continuously find answers closer to the truth.

This seemingly old way of thinking actually never goes out of style.

In every test, there will be a large number of deaths, but humans don't care and have no way to care.

People's purpose is just to complete the test.

Humanity currently does not expect to win. Every soldier and scientific researcher participating in the test just wants to complete his or her own mission.

I finished the test and I died with no regrets.

Until now, humans have forgotten whether they are a peace-loving race.

Because the choice before mankind has never changed from beginning to end.

war.

There is only war.

In the past nearly a thousand years, mankind has relied on the seamless communication of this quantum network to establish an extremely large unified will.

The foothold of this will, to borrow a saying once said by the sage Chen Feng, is: "If the war starts because of you, I will not stop until I die."

As countless giant weapons are gradually charged, another new round of testing is about to begin.

Some of the blade beetles broke into a million kilometers in front of the fortress ship and began to exchange fire with the bowl-shaped intelligent aircraft previously released by humans.

Among the three million fortress ships, large main battleships, medium frigates and small single-man high-performance fighters took off one after another.

Before dispatching the troops, Marshal Peng Zhongyun, the commander-in-chief of the chain fortress array, said on the communication channel: "Everyone, behind us is our last position! We have lost the earth, the solar system, and the entire Orion Arm. ! However, behind us, there are countless compatriots who are rushing to the depths of the galaxy and into distant space! There are also sages who are rushing towards us! We will stick to this place, waiting for the arrival of the sages and our compatriots. Go away! We will definitely achieve the best results we have ever seen! Everyone, move forward!"

Accompanied by Peng Zhongyun's roar, the outgoing troops of the chain fortress array rushed forward.

Three million large main battleships, 30 million medium-sized frigates, and 300 million high-performance fighter jets started their engines at the same time and began to advance rapidly in different directions.

They wanted to bypass the blockade of the compound-eyed combat units such as the Blade Beetle, quickly gather into two huge forces further ahead, and attack the two prism ships respectively.

At the same time, the soldiers on board the fortress ship had already boarded their small and medium-sized cannon consoles, put on neural piercing helmets, and linked the neural network with the cannon at high intensity, waiting for a close encounter with the approaching Blade Mantis.

Behind these soldiers stood their shift comrades.

If these soldiers overuse their brains, have a mental breakdown at the console, and die from liquefaction of their brains, the comrades behind them will take over their posts.

Inside the shadow galaxy, a torrent special attack team composed of 14,000 elite star shadow warriors is rapidly accelerating in an elliptical orbit that is almost similar to the orbit of Pluto. It is about to exceed the speed of light and is preparing to enter a state of hyperwarp motion.

This team will suddenly appear on the battlefield in ten seconds and come face to face with the more than 280,000 blade beetles rushing at the front.

Still two chapters in one.
