I Really Didn’t Want to Be the Savior Chapter 474: The last position [6,500 words]
On September 18, 3121, the prismatic fleet arrived as scheduled with an unparalleled sense of oppression.
But people in the shadow system are not panicking.
This is already in the prediction of the high level of the empire, and human beings have already made adequate plans.
A huge booby trap with a thickness of 100 million kilometers has long been laid on the periphery of the entire shadow galaxy.
There are over a trillion booby traps.
The size of a single booby trap is only the size of a fist, like dust scattered outside the Dyson membrane, each revolving around a huge galaxy along a fixed orbit.
The distribution of booby-trapped mines is mainly close to the ecliptic plane, which is the most dense.
However, in order to maintain a certain intelligence capability on the ecliptic plane, there are still a small number of booby traps whose orbits are at different angles to the ecliptic plane, eventually forming an elongated egg-filled cake similar to Dyson's membrane A large net.
Because the booby trap is too far from the shadow sun, relying on the natural gravitational field of stars, the booby trap cannot be firmly limited to a fixed range to form a stable booby trap minefield.
So every booby-trapped mine is loaded with a field engine.
The so-called field energy engine is actually a variant of the quasi-curvature engine, but the output power is much smaller than that of the quasi-curvature engine, and it hardly compresses the space. It only uses the huge gravitational field and applies a little steering force.
Under the traction of the field energy engine, and the precise control of the stars, trillions of booby traps revolve along the criss-cross orbits, but they do not collide with each other, maintaining a delicate balance , and make the number of booby traps distributed in a unit area relatively stable.
There are two types of booby-trapped mines, one is a passive type that detonates only after physical collision or energy field interference.
The other is the active type that is controlled by the quantum network and the gravitational wave network. If an enemy appears within a fixed range, the field energy engine will be run at full power overload to complete rapid advancement and detonate.
The blasting methods of active booby traps include antimatter impact, dark energy black hole, compression fusion blasting, beam energy shock wave diffusion, etc.
The passive type with a larger proportion is a special plasma electromagnetic shock wave originating from a special planetary system.
After the plasma magnetic booby trap is blasted, it will throw a large amount of liquid special alloy in all directions, called the heteromagnetic plasma flow.
The biggest feature of these liquid alloys is their extremely strong magnetism, which has a strong ability to resonate with metals, and will have a high-frequency reversal of the north and south poles at a frequency of 100,000 times per second.
According to the experience of confrontation between Morrowind Empire and Prism in the past 20 to 30 years, when the number of plasma magnetic booby-trapped mines reaches a certain base and there are enough heteromagnetic plasma currents within a fixed range, the compound-eye prism 's jumping ability will be slightly restrained, no longer so stable, and there is a possibility of operational errors.
Then, with the compound-eyed combat style, the prismatic 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 the quantum scan, which can help humans to quickly and effectively locate the compound eye prism.
This time, the shape of the prism ship has not changed from the last time. It is still a structure composed of two pyramids 300 kilometers long.
The Chain Array fortress ships arranged by humans outside the ten layers of Dyson membranes are spherical with a diameter of 400 kilometers. There are three million ships. Each fortress has a thousand people and a total of three billion shipborne soldiers.
Thousands of people on the fortress ship have different responsibilities and perform their own roles. Combined with the assistance of artificial intelligence, thousands of warriors can control the fortress starship.
Each bastion ship has a large main battleship controlled by a hundred people, ten medium frigates controlled by ten people, and a hundred veteran soldiers who operate high-performance fighters with variable shapes.
This transformable 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 instruction, they were also qualified to access the training materials written by Chen Feng.
At the same time, the training instructors for these people also participated in the instructor training course run by Ding Hu.
After four months of assault training, these already elite fighters have improved.
Combined with the constantly updated and upgraded equipment, the overall strength of this batch of fighter operators who cooperate with the Chain Array fortress ships is not as good as that of the authentic Star Warriors, but they are already outstanding.
Chen Feng observed that the human concept of war is changing.
Although the core control of most of the main ships is still in the hands of people, the number of crew members of the ships is vastly different from the previous timeline.
The number of crew members on each ship in this timeline is much lower than in the past.
In the past, maintaining a fortress ship with a diameter of 400 kilometers required at least tens of thousands of people to work together.
Now there are fewer than 300 people, and most positions can be equipped with two or three people in shifts.
In a unit of space, assuming that the total size of human forces is the same, the population density of soldiers is much lower.
The reason is that human beings have come out on a large scale, developed more stars, obtained more energy, and also discovered more planets, and obtained more special materials that cannot be obtained by mass-energy conversion.
The double surplus of energy and materials makes it possible for humans to build more extravagant large-scale war units.
At the same time, due to the improvement of the performance of Fanxing, human beings have further studied quantum networks, and the security level of quantum communication has continued to improve. Humans began to dare to hand over more important work to artificial intelligence, and finally formed such a new type of war mode.
At the beginning of the war, the human concept of war was not so extreme.
But in the past century, with the deepening of the war, the strategic policy of mankind has gradually shifted from shooting down enemy ships to collecting information and exchanging troops for more information as the first 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, human beings have begun to advocate the strategy of breaking up into pieces.
There are even many people who have only one family on the escape ship. Once they encounter a situation, each of them can even drive a small escape shuttle to escape alone.
A total of twenty frozen embryos of 10 males and 10 females were also loaded into the single-person escape shuttle.
This is the minimum standard that can barely guarantee that there will be no inbreeding within three generations.
As long as they can get out of a boat, these 20 embryos have the opportunity to reproduce a whole population with the help of artificial intelligence.
The strategy of human beings is quite effective. So far, the compound eyes have not completed a complete external eradication, relying on this new civilization model that is constantly broken down into pieces.
This pattern manifests itself in other sectors, most notably in Shadow Systems.
At this time, the first plasma magnetic booby-trapped mine was detonated, and the different magnetic plasma jet was sprayed, and the moisturizing substance was sprinkled on the prismatic ship silently, and at the same time, more passive plasma magnetic booby traps were detonated nearby.
The large-scale mutated magnetic field continued to oscillate and gradually spread, turning the prismatic ship that approached in an instant into a boulder that was thrown into the mirror-like lake, causing waves of waves.
One of the chain fortresses at the forefront was the quickest to respond, announcing the position of the prismatic ship.
In the distant Morrowind No. 2, a red-colored prismatic ship suddenly appeared in the star map in front of Chen Feng.
Yes, only one.
But in the next second, one after another, crimson prismatic polygonal structures appeared in all directions of the shadow galaxy, eventually reaching 30,000 ships.
Different from the average dispersion when forming grid links, this time the 30,000 prismatic ships are randomly distributed.
The Compound Eyes apparently won't block the galaxy with the grid link this time around.
It is probably because the number of ships is too small and the density of white plasma grids in the unit space is insufficient to form an effective blockade, so it is simply not used.
Then the compound-eyed attack mode is ready.
A small number of prismatic ships are responsible for patrolling the outer circle to prevent escape, while most of the prismatic ships are scattered or gathered, gradually opening the gap in the human front, and gradually eroding the living power of human beings.
The trend of this small-scale battle situation is similar to the overall battle situation involving the huge Orion arm outside, like a Russian nesting doll.
The compound-eye prism will not rush into it until it gains a definite advantage.
This would fall into the human circle.
Although in the long history of war, human beings have never recorded the shooting down of prismatic ships, both sides can clearly feel that the threshold is gradually approaching.
With the capabilities shown by humans, once the first prismatic ship is shot down, it is likely to mean that the relationship between the two sides of the war will be reversed in an instant.
The Compound Eyes will not allow this to happen, never.
A violent exchange of fire erupted in the next instant as the active booby-traps moved rapidly through space.
In just an instant, about seven thousand bright space flames filled the front of the fortress chain array.
Most of the flames are concentrated near the ecliptic plane of the star's second orbit, and a small part is distributed in the upper and lower directions of the galaxy.
The prismatic warships that were temporarily limited in their high maneuverability and jumping ability opened their shields as usual, and then connected the middle part of the two pyramid structures to open a crack about 30 kilometers wide. A large number of medium and micro combat Units flew out from inside like wasps out of their nests.
It's still a small number of blade beetles, a moderate number of eight-legged beetles, and a large number of dragonflies, plus more turtle-shaped aircraft and fingernail-sized self-destructing flies.
The compound-eyed war weapons have not changed much in form.
However, the performance of various equipment still made Chen Feng's eyelids jump.
The blade beetle in front of him now has a long, bendable tube on its back in addition to cutting the blade arm and exhaling explosive particles with a unified force.
This long tube is obviously a weapon, like a tail that grows backward from the spine to the top of the head. It is very flexible and can shoot a white beam to the outside.
Chen Feng recognized the beam.
In the last timeline, it was released from a spherical warship, causing huge damage to the human fleet at the last moment.
And the thin shield layer covering the body of these blade beetles has also changed, showing a silver radiance in the universe, indicating its good reflectivity to energy weapons.
According to the information provided by the army, after the pure physical poison is applied, the effect has dropped by an incredible amount compared to a hundred years ago.
These blade beetles are much stronger than those killed by Chen Feng himself.
The ball ship wandering outside has not innovated the blade beetle equipment, and the prismatic ship that has been participating in high-intensity wars has replaced the blade beetle with an unknown version.
The eight-legged beetle has also changed, and its originally awkward flight speed has become much faster.
The way humans meet the enemy and Chen Feng's past understanding have also undergone great changes.
The Chain Fortress did not rush to release manned small and medium-sized combat units, but only flew out numerous bowl-shaped aircraft from the hatch in the middle.
Each aircraft carries a maximum of three, and a minimum of one, small arms.
These pure artificial intelligence aircraft use pure medium engines. Although the acceleration is not fast enough, they are not small because of the large number.
Before the cannon fodder-level combat units on both sides came into contact with each other, the small units of the Compound Eyes had a drink in the booby trap.
The blade beetle with the short-range jumping ability can dash forward quickly, but the other units of the compound eye were blown up by countless booby-trapped mines.
To navigate the magnetic field turbulence disturbed by the plasmic booby-trapped mines, the mighty blade beetles also have to take some risks.
However, these blade beetles must perform a warping maneuver.
The firepower of a single fortress ship is very strong, and dozens of them approach rashly, and the risk of being shot down is not small.
They have to be aggregated first.
The tenth Marshal Peng Zhongyun, who was directly responsible for commanding the first line of defense, performed the operation and began to pre-charge 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's Edge Roaches all started to jump.
Only 95% of the blade beetles successfully completed the jump, and 5% of the blade beetles appeared at the target location of the jump, but only half of their bodies were left, and the other half did not know where to go, probably left behind In some unknown black hole.
There were originally 1.5 million blade beetles, but now there are only 1.42 million remaining, and they have become a total of five teams around the shadow galaxy, with an average of nearly 290,000 in each team.
Four of the squads overlapped with the pre-heating spot arranged by Xianfeng Lu in advance.
As soon as it reappeared, it was hit by the heavy compound guns of more than a thousand fortress ships nearby.
But one of them appeared in a position that Peng Zhongyun never judged.
After a little rest, the blade beetle quickly accelerated to one-half the speed of light, turned into a streamer in the universe, and slaughtered forward.
As the more than 280,000 blade beetles took the lead in entering the firepower coverage of the chain fortress array, the medium-sized weapons of nearly a thousand fortress ships here began to tilt their firepower outward.
Most of the people who fired the first time were not energy weapons, but live ammunition weapons, mainly missiles.
High-power energy weapons need to be recharged, and only live ammunition weapons can fire as soon as they say they are fired.
Sometimes pre-charging can be performed, but once the charging is turned on, it must be fired, and after each firing, there will be a certain period of equipment material repair time and energy re-preparation period, commonly known as cooling time.
A missile?
Chen Feng frowned slightly, thinking to himself, this is impossible to hit.
As expected, the turbulent flow formed by the Blade's Edge Beetles suddenly dissipated, each dodging.
Although missiles have the ability to track orientation and certain curvature-like flight capabilities, it is really difficult to track the blade beetle that can easily change direction at half the speed of light.
But this was as expected by the human commander.
The missile detonated in advance, and the splendid explosion illuminated the nearly ten million kilometers of space in front of the fortress ship into a bright area of light like a stellar corona.
Intense shock waves and particle streams have formed clumps of "ephemeral stars" in the universe.
The "ephemeral stars" intertwine with each other, and the blasting shock wave distorts and deforms into a cloud.
But in the blink of an eye, the blade beetle array rushed out of the cloud and continued to charge forward.
It seems that humans are not taking advantage.
"Beautiful!"
Chen Feng suddenly squeezed his fist and growled.
He wouldn't jump to conclusions, but he was amazed by the operation of the human fortress ship just now.
It turns out that the real purpose of the missile explosion was not the blade beetle, but to block the advancing route of the other combat units such as the eight-legged beetle chasing behind, and at the same time to break through the invisible silk thread laid by the blade beetle at an unknown time.
Chen Feng also recognizes this thread. It is similar in material to Captain Ball's whiskers, and it also has the ability to freeze space.
The compound-eyed man appears to be planning to use the blade beetle to build a spider-like web and slowly freeze the outer periphery of the entire shadow galaxy with space freezing technology.
Now the Compound Eyes' wishful thinking is wrong.
And since human energy can break through the silk thread, it proves that the human blasting weapon can already suppress the freezing force of the silk thread.
At the same time, in the upper right corner of Chen Feng's vision, some parameters are changing rapidly.
"The fifth string energy ray flow is in the actual combat efficacy test...
Test results progress 1%, 2%...7%...33%...100%.
The test is completed. The 18th, 29th, and 75th bottom strings after the transformation of the DX2287 star can be mixed and blasted, and then the Orton No. 3 metal is used as the shrapnel carrier, and the frozen silk thread can be cut in 0.0002 seconds.
The fifth-string energy splinter projectile was successfully developed. "
“Assessment of weapon depth, the best propelling stage is the single-particle neutron shell vacuum bubble fusion blasting, which can obtain the maximum blasting effect in the shortest time.”
At this point, the heavy weapons on the fortress ship are finally recharged.
A moment later, the thousand fortress ships once again glowed with colorful rays of light, one after another like searchlights, but beams of light that actually contained huge energy crossed and poured out from the fortress ships.
Characteristic rules and triggering energy of materials, 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 indescribably short wavelength, comparable to gamma-ray burst intensity The terrifying energy weapons such as gamma beams, positron injections, antiproton injections, etc., bombarded forward from the fortress ship in a fast or slow way of stacking each other, blocking the advancing direction of the blade beetle into a An airtight 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 field of vision jumped again.
Yes, Chen Feng fully understood the strategic policy of Shadow Galaxy in only twenty seconds.
Test!
This is the eternal theme of the war between the two sides for a hundred years.
Not only that, but other fortress ships far from the Blade's Edge war zone have also begun charging their giant weapons.
These giant weapons are targeting prismatic ships briefly trapped in a magnetic booby trap.
There are many types of giant weapons.
The black hole spin sub-cannon is a new type of black hole weapon. Although it is not as direct as a black hole bomb, it can briefly bind the mass-energy jet similar to the material of a physical black hole and launch it in a columnar form.
The coronal cannon of a supermassive star can continuously release a terrifying high temperature of more than 30 million degrees.
Chimera liquid missile, inspired by the saliva of Chimera bird, a special life in the special planetary system, a strange liquid with extremely strong decomposition ability and performance beyond physical toxins.
The Lava Life Gene Concussion Missile, which simulates the genetic structure of Lava Life, can release continuous high temperature, and the flame like a tarsus will devour everything.
And the enabling space plant network, this is a new type of weapon created by human beings after combining the strange life in the special galaxy with the Dyson membrane, which can be deployed in space in a very short time covering an area of 50 million kilometers. the big net.
This web will quickly absorb any energy form it comes in contact with. It has just been successfully developed and has high hopes. Researchers hope that this plant network can absorb the shield of the outer layer of the prism.
And the more terrifying Dyson membrane swallows the energy field, which is a specialty of the shadow galaxy, a stretched Dyson membrane that was briefly approached to a physical black hole, and then re-sent by the Expendables with reverse thrust. The molecules inside are Similar to the high-speed oscillation of black hole matter.
It's all a test.
Mankind has performed numerous tests of similar scale in numerous campaigns over the centuries.
The ultimate purpose of all tests has never changed - to shoot down prismatic ships and destroy enemies.
These weapons contain all the imagination and scientific literacy of human beings so far.
Humans have always tried to integrate everything they can see within Orion's arms.
Humans are constantly learning more about the depth of the universe, and then absorbing more rules of the universe, and then stuffing their own understanding of the universe into military technology without reservation.
This is an ancient material science technology concept, used in the 31st century.
This idea, called the Exhaustive Method, allows infinite changes to be given to limited resources in order to constantly find answers that are closer to the truth.
The seemingly old way of thinking will never go out of style.
Every test, there will be a lot of deaths, but humans don't care and can't care.
People's purpose is simply to complete the test.
Humanity currently does not expect to win, and every soldier and scientific researcher participating in the test just wants to complete his task.
I've finished the test, and I'll die without regrets.
By now, humans have forgotten whether they are a peaceful race.
Because the choices before mankind have never changed.
War.
Only war.
In the past thousand years, human beings have established an incomparably huge unified will by relying on the seamless communication of this quantum network.
The place where this will rests, to borrow a phrase from the sage Chen Feng, is that "the war starts because of you, and I will never die."
As countless giant weapons gradually charge up, a new round of testing is about to begin.
Some of the blade beetles rushed to the front of the bastion ship and began to exchange fire with the bowl-shaped intelligent aircraft released by humans.
Large main battleships, medium frigates and small single-person high-performance fighters among the three million fortress ships were launched one after another.
Before the outgoing troops were dispatched, Marshal Peng Zhongyun, the commander-in-chief of the Chain Fortress, said on the communication channel: "Everyone, behind us is our last position! We have lost the earth, the solar system, and the lost. The whole Orion arm! But behind us, there are countless compatriots who are rushing to the depths of the galaxy and to the distant space! There are also sages who are coming to us! We will stay here and wait for the arrival of the sages , waiting for our compatriots to go away! We will definitely achieve the best results ever! Everyone, move forward!"
Accompanied by Peng Zhongyun's roar, the outgoing troops of the Chain Fortress marched forward with a bang.
Three million large main battleships, thirty million medium frigates~IndoMTL.com~300 million high-performance fighters started their engines at the same time, and began to advance rapidly in different directions.
They want to bypass the blockade of compound-eye combat units such as the Blade's Edge Beetle, and quickly gather into two huge troops in front of them, and they go straight to the two prismatic ships.
At the same time, the shipborne soldiers in the fortress ship have already boarded their small and medium-sized machine gun consoles, put on a nerve piercing helmet, and linked the neural network to the machine gun with high strength, waiting for the approaching blade. The beetles are hand in hand.
Behind these soldiers stand their comrades on shift.
If these soldiers overworked their minds, had a nervous breakdown on the console, liquefied their brains and died, their comrades behind them would take their place.
In the interior of the shadow galaxy, the torrent special attack team composed of 14,000 elite star and shadow warriors is rapidly accelerating in an elliptical orbit that is almost similar to the orbit of Pluto, and is about to break through the speed of light, preparing to enter a state of hypercurve motion.
This team will suddenly appear on the battlefield ten seconds later, and will face the 280,000-odd blade beetles rushing in front.
