Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 389 05.0388: ‘Acting Captain’

Medical officers and heavily armed combat medical sisters rushed out from the side passage, opened their medical kits, and began to rescue the wounded on the bridge.

The most senior medical officer performed emergency hemostasis treatment on the captain.

Then two nuns loaded him onto a stretcher, preparing to transport him to a specialized operating room for more comprehensive treatment.

"Go boldly - son of Thomas." Lieutenant Sterling said weakly as he lay on the stretcher:

"Your father also took over the command of the battleship after Captain Peru was injured. That was the starting point of his legend. I believe you can do the same. Ahem!"

"Don't worry, Captain, I will do it."

Horatio watched the captain, who was beginning to lose consciousness, being carried away by the nuns. He took a deep breath and focused his thoughts on the only thing in front of him.

He remembered the knowledge he had learned at the Officers' Preparatory School and the Naval Academy, and also remembered his personal work experience in the Coast Guard in his previous life.

In addition, before his expedition, while driving an unclassified ship to fight against pirates, Captain Sterling also asked him to try to independently command a warship.

Faced with such an unexpected situation, he would not be at a loss as he had relevant experience.

Unlike most captains who have never sat on the captain's throne, when faced with this situation, they will fall into a period of 'Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing? ’ A period of confusion.

He tightened his palms, closed his eyes, and concentrated on connecting with the machine soul of the Indefatigable.

Controlling a battleship and controlling a knight mecha may seem similar, but they are actually quite different.

The commander sitting on the captain's throne cannot use his own thoughts to control the battleship in real time and finely.

Because she is too huge.

Theoretically, even the smallest Imperial Navy destroyer would have enough internal volume to fit hundreds of Knight mechas after removing all the cabins.

Even transporting an Emperor-class Titan and its attached Titan Guards is not a problem.

Although she is big, she is more subtle and powerful than both the Knight Mecha and the War Titan.

The moment when the nerve plug is connected to it and recognized by the machine soul.

Without the need for voice or movement calls, the core parameters of each department on the battleship immediately appeared on the display screen hanging in front of him according to his will.

He can directly use his own will and language to accurately transmit his orders to any place on the ship where there is a meditator array or a sound transmission array.

This is a feeling that the soul seems to be separated from the flesh and blood and integrated with the battleship.

The machine spirit of the Indefatigable is not as lazy as the Q-ship. She is like a mature, steady and experienced female guard knight.

Horatio often doesn't need to further convey his thoughts to immediately understand what he is doing and what he wants to do.

And what might come next.

And autonomously present what Horatio may need on the huge display in front of him in advance.

It was obviously not artificial intelligence, but Horatio experienced the wisdom-assisted control experience that only existed in imagination in his previous life.

"All departments are reporting casualties!" With the help of the machine spirit, Horatio, who was able to get started in just a few minutes, first inquired about the situation with all departments on the ship.

"The chief officer of the Operations Department died in the line of duty and one officer was injured."

"Command Department, Lord Captain is seriously injured, two officers are seriously injured!"

"Two officers and three alternate officers of the Navigation Department died in the line of duty."

"An officer from the Communications Department was slightly injured."

"Two alternate officers from the Weapons Department were slightly injured."

"The engineering department reports the damage control situation!"

"There are two gaps in the bridge armor glass with a total area of ​​230 square meters, and the oxygen leakage is 60 liters per minute. The gravity field generator is strengthening the gravity circle power of the defective area to reduce oxygen escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, a blue energy membrane was covered in the gap by the technical sage who controlled the gravity field generator in the core cabin, further improving the phenomenon of gas leakage.

At the same time, the life-support cabin increased the operating power of the potassium absorber and water-oxygen converter to inject more oxygen into the bridge space.

In this universe, after humans entered the void, they have mastered the use of gravity field generators in a battle that lasted for thousands of years, turning the giant void ship into a miniature planet that can support the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.

The force field it generates will start from the core area of ​​the ship and simulate the construction of a gravity system, allowing personnel to run down-to-earth inside the ship instead of floating.

It also allows oxygen and other necessary gases to be firmly locked within the force field circle.

The opening and closing of the armored door on the shuttle ramp will not allow ground crew to be sucked out. Even if the ship is partially damaged, a large amount of air will not be lost and the lives of the crew will be endangered.

Only those unlucky ones who are very close to the leak will be sucked out of the ship.

But fortunately, the hit point of the Indefatigable was thirty or forty meters above the heads of everyone on the bridge, and there was an anti-fall net blocking the head.

After a brief briefing on the damage, Horatio immediately made emergency personnel changes between departments with too many and too few to ensure that each department could continue to operate.

A professional emergency repair team composed of technical priests was dispatched to the damaged area.

"Report the surrounding war situation! Who attacked us?"

"A green gunboat hiding behind the impact ship. The ship has two heavy cannons with huge caliber!

After the macro artillery command platform destroyed the impact ship in front, it failed to identify it in time, which was covered by the wreckage, and immediately selected the next target, giving the other party a chance for a sneak attack. "

"Observation Department, keep your eyes peeled and don't let this happen again!"

"yes!"

"Aviation Department!"

"Give me your orders, Captain! --- Horatio?"

"Immediately release a squadron on the port side, mounted with death-strike missiles, responsible for guarding and intercepting any enemy small craft approaching the Indefatigable. Let the pilots keep an eye on the target's power system and prevent the enemy aircraft from continuing to approach. The first priority is!"

"Yes!" His deputy Archie immediately began to deploy the escort squadron and set sail.

"Operation Department, let the light spear turret tear the enemy ship that attacked us into pieces! It wants to escape behind other small ships and repeat its old tricks.

Ministry of Communications, reminder of 'Spear of Achilles'

(Endurance-class light cruiser) Take precautions and let their light spears focus fire with us to eliminate this threat. This experienced and cunning alien target must be eliminated and must not be allowed to continue to live. "

"yes!"

Under Horatio's clear and decisive orders, the chaos caused by the attack on the bridge was quickly replaced by an orderly and busy scene.

Many officers who were slightly injured still insisted on staying at their posts, and only about five were sent to the rear for medical treatment.

All services filled missing personnel with midshipmen or senior warrant officers.

"Hey hey hey! The flying cathedral of the stinky shrimp gave me a shot."

The little green-skinned leader hiding in the gunboat smiled complacently, and the hook inlaid in his right hand excitedly hit the steel handrail beside him, bringing up sparks.

"Boss--Boss, but our big bumper didn't explode! It just went through. Oops!"

A collared cockpit fart was punched in the head by the tall green-skinned boss, causing a big bump to form on the top of his head.

"Find me another boat to hide behind! Let's fuck the stinky cathedral again!"

"Yes--yes! Boss!" Fart covered the big bag on his head and jumped to the helm.

"Boss! Boss!" A fart in the orbit of the ship shouted: "The cannons with many tubes are pointed at us!"

"Huh?" The green-skinned little boss raised the battle-damaged artillery mirror and looked at the light spear turret on the spine of the Indefatigable ship.

Two light spear cannons with a total of dozens of energy-concentrated tubes slowly turned, and the cannon barrels as black as honeycombs lit up with the faint blue of charged light.

"Quick! Quick! Spray dirty smoke! Turn! Turn!"

Just as the little boss roared and punched the pilot at the helm, the light spear cannons on the two battleships also completed charging and fired at the same time at a terrifying synchronization rate.

Four blazing beams pierced the main structure of the junk ship, and the light spear fired by the Indefatigable penetrated its "head" from the fins.

"Gah! It's so hot! It's so hot! Boss, save my mouth and teeth!"

The fart in the cockpit screamed, the steering wheel was melted by the sudden burst of high temperature, and its slender phosphorus hands were also burnt black and stuck to it.

"Ah! No! My Waaaaaagh big business!!! No!!!"

The green-skinned little boss let out his last shrill scream before being drowned by the scorching beam.

The hit junk ship lost its stable acceleration trajectory and slid forward out of control, seemingly slowly but really quickly.

call! Bang!

Suddenly, a huge explosion occurred in this dilapidated garbage ship, along with the heavy cannon in the hateful big mouth on the bow and countless dangerous high-yield artillery shells, as well as the surrounding areas it had wanted to use as a shield. The junk ships were wiped out together.

The Fury Squadron that took off on the left passed by the glass window of the navigation bridge. They crossed the spine of the ship and fired huge death-strike missiles at other oncoming impact ships.

The ferocious nuclear flames either blasted these broken ships with vicious razors to pieces, or blew them out of control.

It was unable to actually hit the hull of the Indefatigable, and was wiped out by a volley of port macro cannons after randomly passing the hull.

After dealing with the imminent threat, Horatio immediately looked at the entire surrounding battle situation.

As expected, the main green-skinned force came in an irregular formation from a heading angle of 40-85.

In the direction of 296, the Chaos Fleet has appeared and was detected and positioned by the frigate scanner patrolling and escorting the outer cordon.

They came menacingly, like a curved arrow, piercing the center line of the Imperial Navy's battle line.

The enemy's lead ship was turning at this time, like a barb, trying to insert itself from the vulnerable link between the Duty class and the Challenger class, twisting the battle line of the Imperial Navy fleet.

"Your Excellency, it's time to maneuver." Horatio used the nerve plug to directly transmit his tactical intentions and words to the fleet command throne.

This is a wonderful brain wave wired real-time communication technology. The communicator can directly transmit the tactical composition in his mind in the form of brain wave electrical signals, and finally draw the image on the opponent's holographic ship operation diagram.
