The Legendary Mechanic (Transcendental Mechanic)

Half an hour ago.

In the barren cosmic belt quite far away from the lighthouse star, a Kunde fleet jumped out of the star gate, quickly divided into multiple formations, entered the transition mode, and sailed to the lighthouse star along different routes.

After the ravages of the Radiance Federation and the Ethereal Sect, the range of the Scarlet Empire's cordon around the Lighthouse Star has been expanded several times. Not long after the Kunde fleet appeared, it was discovered by the space monitoring device in the area, and this group The Kunde fleet turned a blind eye to this, ignored it, and went straight forward.

The command room of the main ship is mainly made of crystal blue and dark gray. All kinds of consoles are suitable for crustaceans. The commander of the fleet is a large lobsterman who is obviously bigger than ordinary people. Red stripes.

The Kunde tribe is also divided into different sub-ethnic groups. One of the ethnic groups has a characteristic. When different emotions are generated, some carapace parts on the body surface will change color accordingly. The red pattern represents anger and excitement. This conductor The official is in a state of anger at this time, and the object of his anger is the enemy Scarlet Empire.

Ye Lu, an officer of the Jagged Faction of the Kunde tribe, known for his aggressive style, voluntarily requested to participate in this attack. He and most of the crew of this fleet knew that there was probably no return to this trip, but they still had no hesitation.

"How far is it from the lighthouse star marked on the star map?"

"Report to the commander, there are still about four hours to go."

"Speed ​​up again."

Ye Lu's tone was full of evil spirits, wishing to immediately pour the ship's shells into the enemy's hinterland.

It has only been a few years since the Kunde people have obtained a full set of stargate technology and advanced leap engines. Even if the star cluster level civilization has strong productivity, it is still unable to mass violence. The Kunde people naturally lack experience in using these two technologies. How many tricks, until now, many Kunde soldiers have not adapted to these new technologies.

The four hours of rushing time will naturally not achieve the effect of a sneak attack, but this is already the limit that the Kunde people can do. Their stealth troops can only quietly put the star gate in this position at most, and hide it any closer. Can't stop.

However, this fleet doesn't care about being discovered, and adopts an attack plan.

In the data of the fallen spaceship, the position of the lighthouse star and the approximate warning range are marked, and it is declared that this is the command core of the Scarlet Empire. This plan to steal the house - taking advantage of the opportunity of the Scarlet Empire sending most of the army out to fight against itself, try to launch a fierce attack on the empire's butt from behind.

In the case of a frontal battle, the Kunde people know that there are many dangers, so they can only take risks. If they can blow up the enemy's command core, then they will gain a phased advantage, and the enemy will inevitably lose an important retreat.

This fleet is equipped with a large number of primitive phantom energy weapons. The Kunde people believe in the power of this thing. As long as they are close to the lighthouse star and hit this planet with any shot, the strategic goal will be successful. The primitive phantom energy almost ignores defense. Part of the shield will only be assimilated by it, providing energy for its expansion.

Although they knew that this attack would be dangerous, but including Ye Lu, the crew of this fleet basically had firm beliefs and were not afraid of death.

On the one hand, it is the anger and hostility towards the empire, on the other hand, it is the fear deep in their hearts, and the reason for their fear happens to have a lot to do with Han Xiao.

Originally, because of the disadvantage in combat power, the Kunde tribe paid great attention to hiding their position. As long as the territory is not exposed, they can use the strategic depth of the light dust star cluster to do many things.

However, after half a month of marching, the Scarlet Empire army came straight towards their territory without much exploration. This disrupted the plans of the Kunde people and made them panic.

The exposure of the civilized territory will lead to the abolition of most of the methods prepared by the Kunde people, and put all their troops in a dangerous situation. Countless people are fortunate to have sent away most of the civilians early, otherwise they will be more passive.

In desperation, the Kunde tribe had no choice but to activate this pending home-stealing plan. As the saying goes, all tactical changers, since their lair was exposed, the Kunde tribe tried to use a surprise army to blow up the back road of the empire. .

The instigator of this scene was Han Xiao who provided the information, which helped the empire save a lot of energy and forced the Kunde people to choose to take risks.

...

At the Lighthouse Star Command, Tarrokov and all the remaining officers gathered in the command room, looking at the star map on the virtual big screen together, the red dot marking the Kunde fleet is slowly approaching, the upper right corner There is also a countdown to estimated arrival.

"As you can see, the enemy is attacking the lighthouse star and will arrive in more than three hours."

Tarrokov stood with his hands behind his back, looking around everyone, with a calm expression and no pressure at all.

Everyone's faces were as usual, and they were not surprised by this.

This situation was originally a possibility they deduced, and they had already made a plan to deal with it. In Tarrokov's strategic sandbox, there is almost no possibility of victory for the enemy in frontal combat, and the probability of taking risks is as high as 95%.

In the Expeditionary War, the Scarlet Empire has been attacked many times, and has rich experience. Not only did the officers present not panic, they even wanted to laugh.

——Compared with their group of old drivers, this indigenous civilization with little war experience is still too immature, and every move is within their expectations.

Without a high-dimensional apocalypse teleporter, still want to sneak attack?

Without the life of the Radiance Federation, he got the disease of the Radiance Federation.

The Lighthouse Star is full of disasters and disasters. To be honest, they are used to people coming directly to them.

After the lesson learned last time, even if a large force is sent out, the Beacon Star still retains enough fleets, and the expanded alert range makes it take longer for the enemy to reach the Beacon Star. Ring's allied troops rushed here through the star gate, and even the large army sent out can jump all the way back through the star gate built along the way.

"Everyone already knows the situation. The only threat of the enemy's surprise attack is the original psionic weapon itself."

Tarrokov paced and said slowly: "We have plenty of reserved time, and we must intercept and eliminate all incoming troops. If any enemy ship is allowed to approach the lighthouse star and drop the original psionic bomb, then we will Trouble."

"I apply to use the original psionic energy, just like what Black Star said, it's not rude to come and go." A hardline officer sneered.

"Well, yes." Tarrokov nodded.

In the explored universe, the use of primitive psionic energy is expressly prohibited, but since the enemy has already used it, the empire will no longer hide it. Anyway, it will be polluted anyway, either you or me, so there is nothing to worry about.

However, although the use of this powerful weapon is allowed, Tarrokov has other plans, and said in a deep voice: "The original psionic energy is too lethal, if possible, try to use conventional weapons to fight and capture the enemy's spaceship And the clansmen, this is a good opportunity to obtain information about the enemy, don’t forget, we still know almost nothing about their civilization, and they should be useful to keep the virtual mechanic unit on standby.”

The empire itself has a large number of virtual mechanics. To deal with this kind of indigenous civilization, it does not plan to use the power of Transcendent A Grade allies... After all, Black Star's current appearance fee is still a bit high.

...

After realizing the enemy's sneak attack attempt, Lighthouse Star summoned the garrison troops from various places through the star gate, quickly assembled the troops, and then sent out to intercept the sneak attack fleet from the Kunde tribe.

Not long after, the two sides had an encounter in the barren space belt near the lighthouse star. This time, it was not as friendly as conventional naval guns in the internal war of the explored universe. Like a shit bag.

In the universe, the expansion speed of the original psionic energy is a little slower. After all, there is not a whole planet of matter for it to transform and swallow, but it is also dangerous because it will not dissipate.

The original psionic light clusters stayed on the battlefield for a long time, and became almost deadly obstacles. The spaceship could only keep avoiding them in danger, and the psionic clusters continued to expand and expand, releasing a huge attraction. Swallowing all kinds of broken spaceship parts, like small black holes.

In such a complex battlefield environment, everyone is afraid of the opponent's long-range strikes, and the frequency of boarding battles has increased instead. The empire is the main leader. The Kunde people only want to bombard wildly, and they are the ones being boarded.

"Reporting to the commander, spaceships No. 078, No. 075, and No. 102 were boarded by the enemy, and the guards on board were completely unable to resist."

In the command room of the Kunde main ship, the scene of superpowers massacring Kunde armored soldiers is shown on the virtual screen.

Ye Lu looked at this scene, and said in a bad tone, "This is the so-called superpower in the data? There is a way to obtain supernatural power without genetic modification?!"

"Commander, the situation is not good for us, what should we do now?"

Hearing this, Ye Lu took a look at the overall situation. There was a gap in battleship technology and military strength, and the fleet suffered heavy losses.

Although this operation was similar to a suicide attack, but without even seeing the shadow of the lighthouse star, so many people were damaged, and it was obviously impossible to take a single step.

Everyone looked at him, as if they were mentally prepared.

Ye Lu gritted his teeth, thumped the table violently, and said in a ferocious tone:

"It is my honor to fight side by side with you... The whole army obeys the order and activates the space-time cutter!"

...

On the other side, at the beginning of the battle, Han Xiao received the news and remotely projected on the lighthouse star to observe the battle situation.

The empire's interception of the Kunde fleet can be described as devastating. The enemy has little ability to resist, and the generational gap in battleship technology is not so easy to make up for.

In the command room, Tarrokov calmly directed the overall situation, while Han Xiao made soy sauce.

Seeing that the battle is going well, Han Xiao is a little puzzled.

"It's strange, the Kunde tribe seems to be vulnerable... How did the previous life cause trouble to the empire?"

The current situation is different from what he expected. In his opinion, since the historical background of the previous life has written that the Kunde tribe caused trouble to the empire, at least they have to fight back and forth, right? Such a dish.

A group of virtual mechanics is working hard to crack the quantum network firewall of this Kunde battleship, and the progress is gratifying.

In another ten minutes or so, maybe the entire fleet can be captured without having to do it yourself.

"The Kunde people have no chance to come back, and they have been beaten up until now, which is strange..." Han Xiao muttered secretly.

Just as he was thinking, the virtual mechanic team on the side suddenly snorted, with a puzzled look on his face, and hurriedly said:

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, there is a problem on our side."

Tarrokov looked over, wondering: "What's the problem?"

"This... at just a moment ago, the quantum network node of the enemy fleet disappeared, we could not receive any signal, and the virtual intrusion was automatically interrupted, not because the network was disconnected,"

Before Tarrokov had time to think about it, a strange scene suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

Suddenly, all the Kunde fleet seemed to freeze, stopping in place.

The imperial army would not be in a daze together, concentrated fire violently, and instantly exploded most of Ye Lu's main ship, including Ye Lu's main ship.

At this time, a sudden change occurred!

I saw white noise and subtle space distortions on the appearance of these destroyed warships. Before everyone could react, the next moment, these spaceships suddenly became intact and returned to the state before being hit. It has moved a long way before, without any moving process, and is in a state of standstill.

The Imperial fleet hesitated for a moment, fired again, and exploded the spaceships. However, the same scene happened again, and the position of the Kunde fleet moved forward a long way.

This time, the imperial fleet did not attack. After a few seconds, the Kunde fleet suddenly jumped again, and the position jumped a long way forward. There was also no moving process, as if the frame was skipped.

"What's this……"

Tarrokov, who was watching the battle remotely on the lighthouse star, was in shock.

buzz buzz --

At this moment, a piercing siren sounded in the room!

"Severe fluctuations in the space-time coefficient have been detected, the degree of distortion is unknown, and the database model is being matched...Matching failed, the database does not have a similar model, and a new file is being created..."

At the same time, the imperial fleet on the front line also tried their best to attack, but no matter how many times they blew up these warships, they could always return to their original state, and they moved towards the lighthouse star again and again like jumping frames, and they couldn't stop them.

Seeing this, Tarrokov's eyes changed slightly, he exhaled, quickly adjusted his mentality, shook his head and said: "It seems that they have been underestimated, huh, sure enough, no civilization can be underestimated."

Everyone looked at each other with different expressions.

They originally thought it was an easy fight to beat their opponents, but they didn't expect this indigenous civilization to pull out an unknown black technology from their crotch, which seems to be related to time and space, and they don't know how to climb the technology tree.

Just when a group of officers were in doubt, Han Xiao on the other side was also a little stunned, and subconsciously lowered his arms.

This kind of technology...he knows it!

It's just that I didn't expect it to come from the Kunde tribe. In the historical background of the previous life, there is no description at all!

This move is one of the trump cards they have used to explore the universe to fight World Tree!
