Voyage of the Stars

Dozens of hours passed, and the melee continued.

As the detector continued to scan, the Lyra found that it was now surrounded by enemies on all sides, oh no, it was surrounded by enemy warships on all sides.

Because of the strategy of attacking Huanglong, the Tianqin led a group of guard warships into the center of the opponent's fleet, and the interstellar trading market fleet that came behind it once again increased the number of warships, and this happened. .

Of course, the most accurate statement is that there is me among you and you among me. The warships of both fleets are all mixed together. It is just because the number of warships is unequal that it feels like they are enemies on all sides.

Yue Yuan and even the commander of the battleship Beihai knew that this state could not continue, because judging from the current situation, the battle damage rate of human battleships has increased significantly. If this continues, it is estimated that the final winner will be It’s the interstellar trading market.

After all, the backwardness of nanotechnology still caused the human fleet to suffer heavy losses in close combat. Well, the close combat mentioned here is not a gang-hopping battle, but the combat distance between the two warships has been stretched to two to three hundred thousand kilometers or even tens of thousands of kilometers.

At this distance, the shells fired by the electromagnetic gun become extremely difficult to defend. Even if the close-in defense gun is operating at full power, some shells can still break through the defensive firepower and hit the warship.

At the third level of civilization, once hit by an electromagnetic gun, it is not as simple as a hydrogen bomb hitting the face, but it means a war between nano-robots.

Many human warships were decomposed by such nanorobots in the interstellar trading market, and then the inventory of nanorepair robots was exhausted, or the production capacity could not keep up with the consumption rate, which eventually led to the destruction of the warships.

Now, mankind has finally realized deeply why true nanotechnology is regarded as the symbol technology of level three civilization. It is indeed the cornerstone of all technologies of level three civilization, and may even be the basis for producing the creations of level four civilization.

In fact, human beings' nanotechnology is already very powerful now. Take the 'Silver Mist Consciousness Body' that frightened humans back then. If humans encounter it again now, they will definitely be able to eliminate it with numerical superiority, not at all. No power to fight back.

This can be seen from the fact that humans can now compete head-on with the interstellar trading market on nanorobots.

"Shuai Yue, I found it, I found it! There is a high probability that the battleship formation 370,000 kilometers away is here!" At this time, an excited voice sounded in the Tianqin command center.

"Let all the warships within 100,000 kilometers move closer to our ship. This time we must destroy it!" Yue Yuan took a look at the icons marked with his own warships on the star map and said.

While he was talking, an enemy ship 70,000 kilometers away appeared in a burst of bright light. Seconds later, a large hole of more than 500 meters appeared. Then, under the accompanying chain explosion, it was completely turned into scrap metal.

This is the credit of Lyra's electromagnetic railgun. Knowing that it is inferior to the opponent in terms of nanorobots, and the opponent's armor can be easily penetrated by itself, the human warship changed its previous strategy and reorganized the warhead of the electromagnetic railgun. It was changed to a hydrogen bomb.

In this way, resources can be saved to produce nano-repair robots specifically used to repair one's own armor, and it can also kill the opponent's warships more efficiently.

This change directly maximizes the attack power of human warships in close combat. Any enemy ship that is hit head-on will basically be killed in one hit as long as it is unlucky enough to hit the fuel depot, power room or the like. Of course, in many cases, the armor is actually punched with a large hole of tens or hundreds of meters, which is then repaired in time by the opponent's nano-repair robot.

Under the action of armor-piercing warheads, a simple and unpretentious weapon like the hydrogen bomb once again exerted its power. With this change, in the close combat between human warships and interstellar trading market warships, the battle loss ratio was maintained at a value of 1 to 3.1.

Of course, this is not enough. If you want to win this stage of the battle, the fastest way is to destroy the warship equipped with strong artificial intelligence.

Not long after, the strong artificial intelligence on the Tianqin followed Yue Yuan's instructions and moved more than 30,000 nearby warships to the Tianqin. Under the command of the same formation, they accelerated towards the target again.

Three hundred and seventy thousand kilometers, the speed of light is just over one second, and the same is true for information transmission. Therefore, in less than two seconds, Tianqin's movements were discovered by the opponent.

The reaction of a warship in the interstellar trading market was also very interesting. The warship targeted by the Tianqin not only did not avoid it like the previous times, but made the same action as the Tianqin.

It can be seen from the pictures transmitted back by the detector that hundreds of thousands of red dots representing warships in the interstellar trading market are constantly moving closer to the target warship, and after completing the formation, they rush towards the Tianqin.

Come to think of it, this battleship also discovered that the human Lyra is the command ship of the entire human battleship cluster, and it is also a battleship equipped with strong artificial intelligence.

In other words, as long as the Tianqin is eliminated, the human battleship group will be paralyzed, and victory will belong to them.

The idea is a good idea, but the interstellar trading market side does not seem to realize that there is more than just one strong artificial intelligence in this starry sky. Even if the Tianqin is destroyed, the unmanned warships originally controlled by the Tianqin will be transferred to the Beihai.

However, humans have no obligation to tell them this kind of news. Of course, humans don't know that the other party doesn't know that they have multiple strong artificial intelligences. After all, after the war actually started, the previous meaningless communication chatter has been automatically stopped by both sides. Lost.

"When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins! Charge!"

Seeing this situation, Yue Yuan focused all his attention on destroying the opponent's flagship. As he shouted, the Tianqin and tens of thousands of guard warships rushed towards the target without hesitation.

In the process, the Tianqin was hit by dozens of laser cannons, but it still led the guard warships towards the target warship firmly, and at the same time still had time to use its main gun to hit the target ahead.

The distance between the flagships of both sides was quickly shortened to more than 100,000 kilometers.

At this time, the Lyra's armor had already turned from bright silver to charred black. There were still some foundation pits on it that had not yet been repaired, and areas that had been completely repaired but could still be seen to be made of different materials.

But the opponent's flagship was still brand new, and the hundreds of thousands of guard warships surrounding it rushed towards it with indomitable momentum. .

At this moment, the Lyra was like a warrior covered in scars. It broke through all obstacles and finally stood in front of the opponent's flagship, raising its sword without hesitation towards an enemy that was several times its size.

The polarization shield lit up again, and then was turned off by the strong artificial intelligence when it was close to collapse. Lyra's churning maneuver avoided most of the laser energy beams, but it was still hit by dozens of laser energy.

Twenty-eight close-in defense guns were destroyed in this round of strikes, but this was not the end. When the feedback that the twenty-eight close-in defense guns were destroyed just appeared, everyone in the Tianqin command center They all felt a slight vibration from the battleship.

Relying on the experience of resisting many times before, they knew that the Tianqin was hit by the opponent's electromagnetic railgun again.

All of a sudden, the alarm sounded loudly!
