0356 Luoxing Showdown, Prologue
For officers and soldiers who have prepared all kinds of preparations, waiting is undoubtedly difficult. For those who are still racing against time to build warships and train new recruits, war is best to be a few months later. For scientists of Star Alliance, war is best to be a few years later.
The Periscope Squad triggered two major events: "Singular Empire Civil Chaos" and "Black Demon Invasion", which had a significant impact on the process of Star Alliance and even multiple civilizations. However, in the view of scientists, these are just accompanying gifts. The Periscope Squad's greatest contribution is to promote the alliance between Star Alliance and Harapa.
Three, to be precise, are just in-depth communication between two civilizations, which has a chemical effect in technology. One of the changes that makes scientists most happy is that the application restrictions of tear crystals and floating stones have been lifted.
According to the in-depth exchanges made by Xia Ming and Harapa, Xinglian can be confirmed that the grandmother tree, like the previous 100 billion, is a product peeled from high-dimensional space-time and space, and merges with a certain ancient plant. The strange stone is its microscopic unit.
The grandmother tree has its own will in the macroscopic sense and is now facing the threat of chaos. Star Alliance naturally dares not include strange stones into its own technological system. However, derivatives such as tear crystals and floating stones are not naturally bound to the "spectrum" like strange stones, but are a generalized material.
Simply put, the Qimu people and the Feixing people can intensify tear crystals and floating stones through consciousness, so that they have the ability to have gravitational effects and consciousness sensing, and humans can also do it through virtual machines. Under the action of appropriate electricity or lasers, the tear crystals and floating stones can show other characteristics.
For example, a tear crystal of a certain "impregnation degree" on the Feixing will become a room-temperature superconductor that scientists dream of under the laser of a specific spectrum.
For scientists, it is very dangerous to rashly invest in the application field if they only know the truth but not the reason. However, this material commonly known as "gray glass" can make the artificial gravity system more effective and smaller in size, and can increase the power of heavy ion cannons and nuclear fusion furnaces by dozens or hundreds of times. This temptation is too great.
The Academy of Sciences made suggestions at the decision-making meeting very seriously, hoping that Star League would find a way to transfer the battlefield, not to show off Luo Xing and Qidi, but to Harapa first stands ahead, striving to let Star League's main force push it back 5 to 10 years before investing in this war.
Dongfang Sheng patted his chest and said that by that time, the Star Alliance warships will not only have real satellite destroying capabilities, but also have gravitational barriers, which will completely overwhelm the Qimuman in technology.
Unfortunately, Lin Cheng asked him with a question: "Is Harapa a fool? He realized our intentions and wouldn't he turn against us first?"
The plan to comprehensively innovate the Star Alliance technology system with gray glass materials was rejected. He only obtained part of the resources and used them in the reserve plan. Xiaotang also divided some of the resources. She wanted to find a new metamaterial that could replace gray glass through metamaterials.
The material aspect is only one of the two civilizations' exchanges, and the other prominent influence is the field of consciousness communication. The existence of strange stones has given Xinglian a reference for the development of the spirit network. On the star rings of Xinglian, those second-class super-intelligent strange stones that are almost equal to the strange wood man.
Coupled with the achievements of Qimu people in biotechnology, the scientists of Xinglian have completely plunged into a super gold mine, cheering for the arrival of the great era, and another technological revolution of mankind is beginning.
The Qimu people who changed to Harapa were a little depressed. Their technical system was already integrated and they did not gain much enlightenment from humans. Although Harapa himself praised human "mechanical rationality", in addition to introducing human optical brain, VR and AR technology, it was difficult to ignite the entire Qimu society.
Relatively speaking, what Harapa is more interested in is the metamaterials of Star Alliance, as well as electromagnetic guns and conventional missiles based on metal hydrogen. He also recognizes that the military power of the Qimu people has huge loopholes between high-end and low-end units. With stronger and more flexible warships, coupled with more powerful and more accurate weapons, some gaps should be filled.
Since all metamaterial resources are used in the construction of Star Alliance's warships, Star Alliance can only provide Harapa with relatively advanced alloy materials. Although it is far inferior to Metamaterials, the metallurgical level of Big Wood is much higher, which is a considerable improvement.
As for guns and missiles, the Star Alliance is not stingy in this regard, providing a large amount of equipment for Harapa. The fleet of Harapa also showed a distinct "blue star" feature. In addition, the commander of the Star Alliance, the combat effectiveness of Harapa's small fleet is almost comparable to that of the Star Alliance fleet ten years ago.
On December 19, 2042, the mobile fleet belonging to the Luoxing Galaxy system and the mobile fleet belonging to the Harapa flagship were conducting a daily confrontation exercise with the Star Alliance fleet. Seeing the real-time updated battle situation report from the AR field of view, Harapa was very satisfied with the exchange ratio that dropped by several percentage points. Suddenly a little red light appeared in the field of view, and then a message from Cornwas.
"Code name Broke Shell, Your Highness, the leader hopes to have an online call with you right away."
Broken shell, is it finally here...
Harapa sighed that consciousness was connected to the confidential channel, which was provided by the virtual machine in Cornwas' brain.
"There was an abnormal gravitational disturbance at a distance of 70 million kilometers from Luoxing. If you were right, it should be the Imperial Group's starring ship, and more than one."
Xia Ming said with certainty: "They are here."
Luo Xing was originally bordered by the Flame Demon Star Domain. Although the Qi Empire had no time to build a fixed star ring, the imperial group carried a large number of star ring ships, which was at most a year away from Luo Xing.
This is also the reason why Xia Ming and Harapa decided to start a war on Luoxing. If they withdraw from Luoxing, the Basensbeca galaxy that was originally occupied by Xinglian will be exposed, and Harapa may also be confiscated from his hometown. It is better to be exposed to the gun of the imperial regiment and attract them to attack.
In addition to military reasons, there are also political considerations.
Halapa has informed the Mayuwei family and other families who have been in the best way to inform the previous incidents of Luo Xing, including Kashep's rebellion and the conspiracy of the Royal Council. However, the Royal Council has not yet broken up and flatly denied Halapa's accusations. Kashep's also retreated to the star field controlled by the Imperial Group and claimed that the Halapa's rebellion. Therefore, both the Mayuwei family and other families are still in a wait-and-see state.
Taking advantage of the royal parliament's desire to cover up this matter, Luo Xing defeated the Imperial Group and proved his strength to his supporters, so that he could gain more voice and take the initiative in the subsequent changes.
"Then let's start..."
Harapa responded heavily that he was not optimistic about the prospects of this battle. If it were just the previous imperial regiment, even if there were four fifth-level combat motherships, he would still have confidence in a battle. But if it was the imperial regiment transformed into flame, plus Kasheppa, who would definitely come back, even if the Star Alliance acts as a spiritual barrier, the power gap between the two sides is still too great.
However, compared with his despair of facing the royal parliament alone, it was just pessimism, which was much better.
As the immortal son of the Grandmother Tree, Harapa likes to change. After several reincarnations of the great tides, he increasingly feels that whether it is himself or the Grandmother Tree, what he needs is change. The flame demon brought destruction, and the Blue Star people brought hope. This is the fusion of the fragments of the Grandmother Tree and the entire world. In the end, the mother tree and itself will inevitably open up a new life cycle.
Sometimes Harapa also felt that the Blue Star people, especially Xia Ming, were essentially very different from the mother tree and himself, which made him a little suspicious that the other party did not originate from the mother tree.
The Grandmother Tree is the source of the soul and the root of wisdom of the entire world. Such suspicion also means overthrowing the entire worldview. Halapa is both afraid and somewhat expectant about this. Yes, expectation.
"You can't fail, not only for the mother tree, but also for such expectations."
Halapa thought so and issued an order to his troops through the core stone.
Several star ring ships deployed near Luoxing stretched out, forming star gates, and battle motherships jumped over Luoxing, gradually weaving several chain rings above Luoxing, covering Luoxing 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers away.
With the flagship of Harapa, a total of 29 combat motherships surround the sky above Luoxing. This is the greatest combat power that Harapa can deploy. There were originally several motherships that the core strange stones were no longer reliable in the battle due to the erosion of the royal parliament, and Harapa was left in the star field under his control.
28 third-level combat motherships and 1 fourth-level combat mothership, such as 29 asteroids circling around Luoxing, have stored a total of nearly 50,000 small warships, with a total of 10 to 1.2 billion people in the Qimu people. Halapa has never counted the specific number, and the Qimu people's society does not have a detailed demographic demand.
In this army, there are 200 million to 300 million wizards, 40 to 50 million high-level wizards, and there are no more than 100 wizards of a certain Pa-level wizard.
In comparison, the fifth-level combat mothership of the Qidi regiment is more than a thousand kilometers in size, each with one to two hundred million people, and the proportion of wizards is one piece higher. The wizards of the Pa-level level are close to the sum of the Harapa fleet, and they are just one. If they are transformed by the flame demon, their combat power will be doubled.
The Allies on Harapa's side are only more than 20 million, all of which are land warriors, not worth mentioning. The Blue Star people's main battleships have only about 50, and the largest one is less than one-tenth of his flagship. Although the weapons are powerful, they do not have a gravitational barrier and are very fragile. The only valuable thing is their powerful soul power.
It took several days for Harapa's mothership to be in place one after another. During this period, the Star Alliance's fleet also continued to gather through moving star rings. Qianyan's body and Xia Ming were on the flagship Xu Ping. Qianyan said with gratitude: "If our star ring technology had not been developed in time, our fleet would not have been able to gather in place. The gravitational dimension of this galaxy was as messy as a hurricane."
Indeed, when Harapa's mothership gathered, deep in the galaxy, the Imperial Group's starring ships also guided the motherships to jump in. Three five-level ships, five four-level ships, and 20 five-level ships. Among them, in addition to the Imperial Group, there should be Kashep's fleet.
The leaps of so many strange wood motherships in the gravitational dimension also triggered the dimensional oscillation of the entire galaxy. Qian Yan tried his best to find a subtle dimensional window, helping the star rings of the stars to guide the entire fleet to leap.
When the fleets of both sides entered the field, it was December 29. The vanguard of the Qi Empire was less than 10 million kilometers away from Luo Xing. This was destined to be a battle spanning 2042. It is not clear whether it can end in 2043.
As Xia Ming expected, the gravitational array arranged on Luoxing was like a gravitational beacon in the entire galaxy after being excited, making the mothership of the Imperial Group rushed towards him like a moth to a flame.
The gravitational array surrounding the equator of Luoxing is a star joint that combines human gravitational detection technology with the gravitational control technology of the Scarlet Star to create an unprecedented gravitational flow.
Star Alliance cannot control such flow in a scientific way, and this gravitational array actually has no practical significance, but in the feeling of the Qimu people, it is like a gravitational cannon that can only fire a level 6 combat mothership that can only have a powerful gravitational cannon. Halapa personally verified this feeling.
For the coming imperial group, destroying this "super gravitational cannon" is the most important part of this battle.
On January 2, 2043, the forwards of both sides fired their first shot 10 seconds away from Luo Xing. The Star Alliance's cruiser and light aircraft carrier formation neatly solved more than 400 opponent's fast battleships, and then slipped back before the opponent's mothership approached.
"Good! Old Master!"
On the Wendehua, Wu Kang couldn't help but applaud Andaoyuan. The forward was led by Andaoyuan. Although the scale of this showdown was small, Andaoyuan did such a beautiful job and showed an absolute crushing posture in the battle. It was really rare.
"Cherish your palms, and there are more uses behind it."
The voice of Su Yu behind her made Wu Kang shrank his neck. In front of Wu Kang, Li Jingze shrank his neck tighter and did not dare to make a word. Xiaoyu, who was sitting next to him, was also quite nervous. Behind her were two "sisters" Su Huan and Brenheld. The three super intelligent gathered on a warship. For the smallest and weakest, it was really under a lot of pressure.
"Close your eyes, rest well, and no conversation! Although you are no longer wearing a virgin, and the punishment for violating military orders is no longer electric shock, if you want to earn points you deserve in this war, don't miss any of my words or violate any of my instructions. Think about it, you have been suffering in hell for several months and are almost ashore. Is it ruining everything you have paid for in the past because of your itchy throat?"
In the landing pole of a Morning Star Assault ship, 60 commandos were standing face to face in individual mechas. The commander was constantly talking, which seemed to put further pressure on them, but in fact they were all alleviating their tension.
"Kill the enemy, survive, kill the enemy, survive, kill..."
Xiao Ning was not nervous at all, she had just thought about it.
"Don't be upset, this is the enemy's target, they will definitely come."
On the surface of Luoxing, around the nodes that create gravitational wave disturbances, and in the crisscrossing fortifications, Zhang Yue told Xi that their mission is not to assault enemy ships in space, but to defend this node. Luoxing's gravity is more suitable for the Feixing people, but the vast continent is not a familiar environment for Feixing officers and soldiers.
Zhang Yue looked up at the sky and muttered in a low voice: "We have to wait at least a few days. I hope the brothers in the sky will be more powerful and not let us be flooded by the overwhelming tree people."
Yang D26M let out a low cry, and Zhang Yue, who had already had a tacit understanding, smiled: "Okay, I believe that your Ma Guling brothers will fly the fighter plane and kill as many enemies as possible."
On the command bridge of the Xu Ping battleship, Fen and Su were wearing uniforms with the Fierce Star Emperor logo, standing behind Xia Ming. Xia Ming was carrying his hands behind his back, thinking about something.
Fin asked: "Leader, are there any other problems?"
Su didn't say anything, just looked at Xia Ming nervously.
"Difficult? No, there are no more problems, you probably don't know..."
Xia Ming turned around and said to them with a smile: "I have experienced many large-scale wars, and never once was as easy as it is now."
The two Scarlet Girls had doubts in their eyes. Are they cheering them up, or are they really having such sufficient confidence?
As Xia Ming waved his arm and projected the battlefield perspective model in the air, Xia Ming said: "Everything is in our control."
