There was silence in the captain's room, as if suppressed by a dark cloud.
There are a lot more people in the toilet than before. In fact, this is a stress response formed in ancient times. When a person is extremely nervous, the sympathetic nerves will begin to be excited, stimulating the person's endocrine system, and also
That's when adrenaline begins to be secreted in large amounts.
These adrenaline can help the human body's heartbeat and breathing accelerate, blood flow increases, and blood sugar levels increase, thereby enhancing strength and improving reaction speed. Psychologically, it is called the "fight or flight response."
At this time, the excretions in the body are completely unnecessary burdens on the body and will only hinder fight or flight, so the body naturally wants to eliminate them.
In fact, it is not only humans who urinate out of fear, but also many animals, such as dogs, cats, and mice. This kind of excretion is beneficial to survival.
In order to avoid a series of mistakes caused by excessive tension, Yu Yifeng randomly found a topic: "Whether it is a war or an escape, we will make a judgment immediately based on the information we observe..."
"If you encounter a large ring-shaped spacecraft, don't attack it for the time being, because it may be a living area for lizards."
"... We estimate that we will have an information advantage of about 20 minutes when we leave the super-light speed at 0.4 light hours on the metal planet. In the first wave, if we want to attack, we must use the most violent means! Just like we want to escape, we must do it as soon as possible!
"
"If a war does break out, use neutrino detection technology to scan the metallic planet as soon as possible to determine the structure and function of each area and understand its combat effectiveness."
"...Everyone knows, right?"
"knew!"
These things have been discussed over and over again countless times, and the reason for talking about them again now is just to relieve the tension.
At this time, the military channel had transmitted an instruction from a senior officer: "The spacecraft is decelerating rapidly, observers please prepare! Observers please prepare! The one-minute countdown begins..."
A countdown has lit up on the screen.
three……
two……
one……
When the last second countdown ended, the detection image finally came out. The moment the Future decelerated to its rated speed, it observed massive data from all directions.
A large number of pictures are processed by the computer and displayed on the screen in less than 0.1 seconds.
Good guy, this metal planet has really changed its appearance!
The originally uneven surface was completely smoothed, reflecting a dull metallic luster under the illumination of stars. At first glance, it seemed that there were hundreds of space elevators, large and small!
Various spaceships fly in synchronous orbits and serve as starry sky docks at the upper end of the space elevator. The combat effectiveness of these starry sky docks should not be high.
The most threatening ones are the patrol spacecraft distributed near the metallic planet within a radius of 20 astronomical units. Three of them are the size of the "Future" and are hundreds of kilometers away. The densely packed weapons and equipment on the spacecraft show that
They are serious military battleships!
"This is their flagship!"
Everyone was discussing quickly, and the relevant computers and experts were already sitting at their posts and making rough estimates.
"There are 1,341 threatening targets in total!"
"First-level dangerous targets: 16. Second-level dangerous targets: 133. Third-level dangerous targets: 569..." These dangerous targets were all fuzzy analyzed based on their body shape and spacecraft structure.
The moment Yu Yifeng saw this line of text, his heart beat wildly. There were more than a thousand enemy spaceships, which exceeded his expectations!
But the most important thing is that the new humans are not in a good position to escape from the speed of light. The shout of a communications soldier has reached the ears: "Report to the captain, the nearest large patrol spacecraft is relatively close to us.
We'll be found in minutes!"
"It's a large flagship!"
One minute?!
There was a burst of noise in the conference room. This damn spaceship was a large flagship, and it was so close to the "Future", which greatly shortened their judgment time.
"Fight or flight?!"
Yu Yifeng must make a judgment within one minute, otherwise, he may be discovered by the nearest spacecraft and lose his information advantage.
The sooner the better!
In 1 minute, it is impossible to hold a slow meeting, discuss for a while, and then vote as a whole, etc. Only he...only he, the captain, can make emergency decisions!
Time seemed to slow down at this moment. He turned back and looked at Xu Yunjin.
Then he looked at Rimbaud and others.
He didn't even have time to say any unnecessary words, nor did he understand what they were thinking... The fate of the new humanity was once again placed in his hands alone.
This fate is as heavy as Mount Tai...
"A flagship?" He was quickly calculating in his mind, trying to compare the various gains and losses and make a final judgment.
There are only three large flagships of the Antaike civilization, and one of them is nearby. Isn't it... a good thing?
As long as it is blown up, it will be a great thing! Isn’t it the flagship?
His temples were pounding, and he gritted his teeth viciously, "Just do it!"
"Start the war!"
With the issuing of this order, the hesitation in the entire conference room suddenly cleared away. Perhaps many people were thinking and hesitating... When Yu Yifeng made the final choice, they no longer thought about it.
There was no turning back when the bow was fired. The eight anti-matter cannons on one side of the Future, as well as a large number of ion cannons and laser weapons, were instantly aimed at the large enemy spacecraft 1 light away.
The war-specific computer quickly calculated the movement trajectory of the spacecraft, and then, white-hot antimatter beams were ejected, like a deadly death in space.
One minute later, the flagship should have observed the sudden appearance of the "Future". Its response speed was also extremely fast. Bright ion flames suddenly shot out from the stern of the ship, and the entire queue wanted to scatter.
But it's too late!
The time left for it is only a few seconds.
For such a large flagship, the huge volume and tonnage improve the survivability, but reduce the maneuverability to a certain extent. The engine can only work for a few seconds without changing the direction on a large scale.
The antimatter beam follows closely...
It spanned 18 million kilometers, and the accuracy was not particularly high. A total of three directly hit the spacecraft, resulting in a huge explosion!
"Okay!" There were shouts in the conference room.
But the good times didn't last long. Within a few seconds, everyone's expressions darkened. According to the observation photos afterwards, the antimatter beam suddenly became extremely bright several hundred kilometers before it hit the enemy spacecraft.
This is an important sign of massive annihilation of antimatter.
The laser that was supposed to be transparent also showed bright light paths.
"smog?!"
Yu Yifeng screamed in his heart that these antimatter beams may have been consumed by some mist-like things, so the overall power was greatly reduced.
"...This civilization has a lot of experience in dealing with it."
"This kind of haze is indeed the biggest obstacle to anti-matter cannons. It can also block lasers and ion cannons."
Many high-energy weapons in the universe have high limitations when placed in the atmosphere, such as lasers, ion cannons, etc. Once the turbidity of the atmosphere is high, the range of these weapons is not long, and the energy will be consumed quickly.
This large spaceship with a length of hundreds of kilometers weakened the power of anti-matter cannons and ion cannons because of its excellent instant response, or the haze shells fired instantly. Of course, it was also a little hasty, so it still had
A small amount of antimatter hit the hull of the ship, giving off an extremely bright light.
But Yu Yifeng knew in his heart that the flagship was indeed still fully operational and had not been completely destroyed.
"It would be great if the main gun fires, and the power can be greater, but unfortunately...the angle of the spacecraft is not good." The main gun of the Future cannot rotate 360 degrees, so it must be at a suitable angle to launch an attack.
After the first round of attacks, the enemy spacecraft quickly launched a series of counterattacks. Various small spacecraft began to accelerate suddenly and rushed over menacingly.
The attack distance of 1 light minute is still a bit embarrassing. It is equivalent to 18 million kilometers, which is too far. The image observed is from one minute ago, but it has to hit the target one minute later. With the current accuracy, even if the opponent does not
By changing the trajectory, I can only barely hit...
A minute apart, as long as you keep changing the trajectory of your movement, there is basically no hope of hitting the opponent. Because of the distance, the accuracy is really too low.
"Who are you?! This is war!@#￥%" The Observatory received an angry message from the other party, followed by a series of threats.
At the same time, a series of white-hot rays of light flashed near the Future.
"The one I'm beating is you!" There was a burst of noise in the captain's room, and even the last bit of hesitation was abandoned.
"Neutrino detection...start!"
"Destroy this spaceship within ten minutes!"
This explosion, due to the distance in space, was still not observed by the metal planet and the surrounding enemy troops. Of course, with the rapid spread of light, the advantage of this information only lasted a few minutes.
Currently, the Future and the flagship queue are still in a 1V1 duel.
According to the current strength of the new human civilization, the huge anti-matter main gun in the center is the ultimate attack method, and the 16 anti-matter cannons on the wings of the spacecraft are the main combat power. Ordinary ion cannons and advanced lasers are supplementary combat power.
There are also some miniature interception lasers, ion shields, etc. as defensive means.
Yu Yifeng didn't know if the other party had the same weapon arrangement. But in theory, ion cannons, lasers and the like are conventional combat weapons in the universe, and their speeds can approach or reach the speed of light.
However, this type of long-range weapons all have a common shortcoming: they are severely defeated by small haze, including but not limited to lasers, ion cannons, anti-matter weapons, etc.
Well, in space, ejecting haze is a very luxury, but it does not require any technical content. This kind of defense means the loss of a lot of material. But its defense effect is really comparable to various high-tech shields.
According to this ejection speed, this spacecraft can create a large cloud hundreds of kilometers thick within ten minutes, consuming more than hundreds of millions of tons of material.
But the new humans are in a hurry and don't have time to fight a war of attrition with them here.
"Get closer, and then fight!" Yu Yifeng gritted his teeth and ordered loudly. After a short period of judgment, he decided that even if he paid a certain price, he had to blow it up completely and hurt its five fingers, so it would be better to cut off its fingers.
One pointed out that this was the opponent's base camp, with a metal planet as a backing and a large number of other spaceships. It was the right choice to directly kill this large flagship here before these spaceships could react.
The current long-range weapons have lost their effectiveness. Close combat is the most destructive method. A large number of kinetic energy weapons, interstellar missiles, or nanobug weapons can be used in close combat, and they cannot be defeated by a small mist.
Control the haze.
These close combat weapons are more accurate and more destructive than firing a few cannons from a distance.
"Lean over, lean over!"
"The expected nearest distance is... one hundred thousand kilometers!" There was an endless stream of voices on the military channel. Of course, the military channel has been divided into many levels. What Yu Yifeng could hear were the conversations between senior officers.
contact.
The Future has a "dark matter deflection shield", coupled with a variety of high-performance materials, its body performance is likely to be able to crush the opponent.
This is a dangerous but sure attempt, because with this technology, their spacecraft can turn at warp speed and can circle a huge arc at sub-light speed!
This also means that the mobility of the "Future" far exceeds that of ordinary interstellar civilization spaceships. It can fight whenever it wants and escape when it wants.
The distance between the two sides was rapidly approaching, and various lasers and ion cannons were firing like raindrops like crazy. There was a troublesome dark cloud in the middle, and when all the weapons passed through it, they would produce bright light paths.
At this time, the expert team also judged the technological level of Antek civilization.
"It's really not as good as the new human civilization."
"...Their large flagship does not have mature ion shield technology."
Three minutes later, battles between small drones have begun. Cheap and efficient kinetic energy weapons have become the mainstream. Electromagnetic guns the size of soybeans can still play their role in the battlefield. Of course, mixed in among them are
A large number of nanobug weapons.
Various microwaves that transmit the energy of nanobugs permeate the battlefield. This kind of microwaves has the possibility of interception and interference. Electronics scientists are also nervously deciphering the enemy's microwaves... So on the frontal battlefield, there is another hidden layer.
An electronic war.
The Future is not in any particular danger yet. It is orbiting at 0.2 times the speed of light with the enemy's flagship as the center, drawing a huge elliptical arc one million kilometers long. At this speed, the opponent's invincible
There is no way for humans and machines to catch up, and even the speed of the electromagnetic gun cannot catch up! There are also very few lasers that can hit it.
The entire battlefield has been greatly suppressed by the enemy in a few minutes. This is also the first time people have seen the powerful power of the Future.
After occupying such a favorable time and place, and even sneaking a surprise attack on the enemy, if there is still a lot of fighting... we might as well just run away without fighting.
Seeing this kind of suppression, Yu Yifeng felt slightly relaxed.
The expert team is constantly judging the direction of the battlefield: "The opponent's drones cannot match ours in performance. Theoretically, the drones alone can slowly swallow up the flagship. The haze cannot stop electromagnetic artillery shells.
Ah, because of this thick layer of smog, the opponent's interception laser cannot intercept the electromagnetic gun immediately..."
"Six minutes have passed. Some of the opponent's support fleets have started their warp engines and are rushing here. There is still less than two light minutes away."
"So fast!" Upon hearing the news, Yu Yifeng's heart suddenly moved.
He immediately issued another order: "Start the charging process of the anti-matter main gun! Adjust the attack angle of the Future and approach the enemy flagship..."
He felt that if he continued to consume like this, he would certainly be able to win, but... it would be too slow!
"Is there any way to disperse this smog?" Yu Yifeng took advantage of this opportunity and asked.
"...Use nuclear bombs or anti-matter missiles directly to blow them up! At least the ground can be blown up a little thinner! In this way, the anti-matter beam may be able to penetrate through." Xu Yunjin said without hesitation.
"Take one shot, the latest developed... photon torpedo!"
That's right, antimatter electromagnetic gun, or photon torpedo for short.
When the cannon is fired, there is a thousand taels of gold. This luxurious large-scale electromagnetic gun symbolizes the most powerful kinetic energy weapon and energy weapon of the new mankind. It looks like a large torpedo. In order to restrain the violent antimatter, a large number of composite technologies and
Premium materials.
There is also a small nuclear fusion device inside to power it, and it even has certain turning technology and heat source tracking capabilities.
You know, this is just a cannonball, and its industrial cost is also horribly high. The cost is limited to serious super-light missiles.
However, hyperlight missiles are ultra-long-range weapons that require acceleration over a long distance and are not suitable for such close combat.
Three such photon torpedoes were launched from the main gun exit of the Future spacecraft. Their initial speed was as high as 30,000 kilometers per second, which is one-tenth of the speed of light.
The drone formation surrounding the opponent's flagship detected these electromagnetic cannons and tried to find a way to intercept them. But in fact, the photon torpedoes were filled with antimatter, and even if they were intercepted, a huge explosion would occur.
Ten seconds later, three small sun-like light clusters appeared in the space. When they saw these light clusters, everyone became excited: an opportunity had arisen.
Huge light clusters, each with a diameter of more than 600 kilometers, illuminate hundreds of thousands of kilometers of space.
One of them was right in the center of the haze cloud, and even faintly affected the enemy's flagship!
Yu Yifeng did not expect that a little aftermath would be able to destroy it. However, the Future's ultimate weapon, the anti-matter main gun, was being charged. As long as the clouds were blown up... the enemy flagship would be finished!
