After an experimental idea that can make liberal arts students explode, Cheng Ying came to a conclusion, that is: "If the cloud herders choose to breed their own cubs as food, their rate of rampage will reach a
Terrible level.
The juvenile Cloud Shepherd can convert more than half of any organic matter into its own cell material, and the same kind of cells can be directly swallowed by the Cloud Shepherd, grass! What an inhumane species."
Ice Emperor was confused about the idea of designing the experiment, but now he finally had someone who could understand it, and immediately said: "They may not do this. Human beings can also exchange their children for food, but when they are about to starve to death, they will
Most people still won’t do this.”
"I'm not sure whether the Cloud Shepherds will do this, but don't judge aliens by the moral standards of different races. Different life forms and social forms will give birth to completely different moral standards.
For humans, it is a moral requirement to bury their dead relatives and cry bitterly, but the morality of the cloud herders may require them to eat some of the corpses of their dead relatives.
Morality has never been a truth, it is just a service and social form, which belongs to whoever has a bigger fist. It is 80% unreliable to expect the cloud herders to give up eating their own offspring because of human morality."
As Cheng Ying spoke, the floor beneath their feet shook violently. The two looked at each other and rushed towards the command room on the bridge at the same time.
On the bridge with a strong science fiction atmosphere, Cheng Ying reached out and pressed the button on the command podium, and a projection of the Natural Selection and its surrounding environment appeared.
"Reporting to the commander, the Muyun Hunters launched a long-range attack on us, using physical ammunition. There was a light search on the armor of the Natural Selection, and the No. 41 airtight compartment is leaking and is being repaired."
"I know, what's the shield capacity?"
"The shield capacity is 63% and is expected to be cleared in five minutes."
Cheng Ying looked at the holographic projection. The long-range attack came from the clouds. The cloud herders learned wisely. This group of dragons held an ice ball with a diameter of five or six meters in one claw, spinning in circles like throwing a lead ball.
, and then throws the puck to Natural Selection.
Quality weapons are always the most cost-effective long-range weapons. Although the huge ice ball is not fast, it is better because of its mass, which puts great pressure on the Natural Selection shield.
"The main engines No. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are tilted at 90 degrees, and the attitude control engines are all downward to keep the battleship suspended! Let's rush out! These idiots don't have a far range like ours!"
After receiving Cheng Ying's order, the engine department immediately adjusted the direction of the main engine, and the attitude control engines originally used to finely adjust the battleship's movements were all turned downward.
The main engine was erected, and all the crew members lay down on the soft chairs in the cockpit. The next moment, the main engine was ignited, and a crazy pushing feeling came over them. Everyone felt like ten of them were pressing on them.
The Cloud Herders who attacked the Natural Selection with long-range attacks were furious to find that the Natural Selection, which was moving at full speed, was just like playing tricks on them.
The Natural Selection did not escape directly, but rushed out of the range of the cloud herders, began to reload its shield, and at the same time aimed its main gun at the cloud herders in the distance.
In terms of range, how could a manually thrown stone be better than a firearm? A few unlucky guys in the distance were killed by headshots. Their blood dyed half of the clouds red, but they were quickly devoured by other cloud herders.
Natural Selection is like an ADC whose movement speed is more than twice that of the opponent, kiting a group of warriors who lack displacement skills and outputting crazy output.
But Cheng Ying's expression was not good-looking: "The enemy's total mass decreases very slowly. If we continue to fight like this, our ammunition will be empty, and we will only be able to consume the total mass of fifty adult cloud herders at most. It is really difficult to deal with!"
The general of the Cloud Shepherd who led the battle on the other side was even more aggrieved than Cheng Ying: "What did the guy on the surface do? It's as hard as a black turtle beast, but it can run faster than the fastest Spear Dragon."
Quick, with this kind of attack range, you can only send more of the same kind to ambush!
Let's take a gamble! Just bet that these people on the surface can't see through the clouds!" Thinking of this, the general of the cloud herders let out a loud roar. When the cloud herders floating on the clouds heard this sound, they were stunned for a moment, and then
They were all hidden in the clouds, and for a while the battleship gunners who were aiming with mechanical sights couldn't find their position, and missed their targets one after another.
"It's done! People on the surface cannot judge our position from the vibration of water vapor in the clouds! They lack some kind of sense!"
…
"Reporting to the commander, the local target has been lost! The sighting equipment cannot see through the clouds."
"Tsk! Have atmospheric creatures really evolved special senses to sense their surroundings in the clouds? If it's normal, there's nothing you can do about it, but this is war, don't blame me for cheating!"
As he spoke, a terrifyingly huge mental wave was released from the Natural Selection, completely covering a radius of dozens of kilometers. All the Cloud Shepherds felt as if they were exposed to the sun without any obstruction.
"Each artillery crew follows the guidance in their minds and fires!"
The ultra-wide range of mental detection, coupled with the built-in auxiliary missile calculation capability, can be called an artillery friend. Not to mention the 460mm main gun, even the 20mm anti-aircraft machine gun can hit the target with a upward firing attitude.
.
For a moment, Muyunzhe, who had just thought he was safe, suffered heavy casualties again and had to start retreating. Under the organization of General Muyunzhe, he surrounded and surrounded the ship, preparing to stop the Natural Selection.
"No, the ammunition consumption is too fast. The cloud herder hiding in the clouds is too difficult to deal with. Is there any way to get rid of the clouds?"
"Didn't you come up with silver iodide? It's the one you use to take pictures of people. Can't that thing be used to make artificial rainfall? Shoot a few cannons and the clouds will disappear," Ice Emperor encouraged.
"How is it possible to do that! Our purpose is to prevent them from flooding the duchy. Artificial rainfall by ourselves goes against the strategic goal!" Cheng Ying immediately rejected the proposal.
"It's not that there are no other ways. For example...find a place without clouds and go there to fight them!"
"A place without clouds?" Cheng Ying was stunned when he was told this. The first thing he thought of was the sky above the desert. However, there are no famous deserts on the Douluo Continent. The entire continent is not large enough and does not have deep enough interior.
If there is no land, there will be no desert.
But Ice Emperor did not propose the desert as an option, because there are drier places on this planet than deserts.
"In the far north, at the end of the clouds, in that white desert, there are almost no clouds!"
Cheng Ying's eyes lit up, it was indeed a suitable place to deal with Muyun.
"The battleship turns! Strategic shift to the north!"
