The battle time for Bediwell and the others was around eight o'clock in the evening. At this time, they happened to be on the dark side of the earth. Logically speaking, they would only see black, but not the blue of this blue planet.
However, in fact, the earth is very big. Although the blue of the earth cannot be seen from this dark side, Bediwell and the others can see the edge of the earth from a distance. The area on the edge that is illuminated by sunlight is indeed blue.
, and it's very beautiful.
"This, this is the earth..." Daniel exclaimed.
Although we have seen it in textbooks and countless documents and history books have described the appearance of the earth in the universe, it is another story to see it with our own eyes.
It has a beauty that cannot be described by all the gorgeous words of mankind.
A few continents that are generally grey-brown are exposed on the blue ocean, and are covered with flocculent clouds. The edge of this huge blue sphere reveals a sapphire-like transparent texture under the sunlight. It is one of the most beautiful in the universe.
A rare, brilliant treasure.
This is the home of human beings, as well as various subhuman species and tens of billions of creatures on the earth, the earth.
In AD 526, perhaps not for the first time, but once again, humans came to space.
Although few of the people here seem to be real humans... Even King Arthur and Daniel, who are closest to the concept of "humanity", one is an artificial man, and the other has become the Dark Green Knight, a kind of "demon"
".
While everyone was marveling at the beauty of the earth, the Knight King Arthur also returned to the bridge unknowingly.
"Thank you." Bedivere said when Arthur took off his helmet.
"It's Xiaobai who has done the hard work," the King of Knights replied.
Although he took off his helmet, King Arthur still wore the half-covered mask, covering his entire face from his forehead to the bridge of his nose. In fact, almost everyone on the ship knew King Arthur, and they wondered what the point of him still covering his face like this was.
"Meow~" The Holy Spirit White Tiger emerged from King Arthur's shoulder, and now it looked like a glowing white tiger-striped kitten. It was weak, pitiful and helpless, and looked very tired. He screamed and shrank back.
Se's body was asleep.
"The use of [God's Wrath] bombardment to convert magic power just now was actually a very random operation. As a result, Xiaobai suffered a lot of damage and was already very tired." The King of Knights said: "We can no longer rely on it for the next battle.
Now that Xiaobai’s strength is over, let’s treat him as a non-combatant and make plans.”
"Okay." The situation is similar to what Bediwell expected. The Holy Spirit White Tiger's ability has been utilized to the extreme, and the consumption must be quite large.
"The invisibility system has been turned on, right?" King Arthur asked again after sitting down.
"Ah, the ship opened automatically just after it broke out of the [Great Storm]." The werewolf young man replied. This is a program that was automatically set from the beginning for Eve to execute, so there should be no errors.
"However, our movements are so big, even if the concealment system is turned on, [Star Ark] must have noticed our ship, right?"
"Of course. They must have detected that [Wrath of God] was blocked by us." The Knight King hummed, "They must also know that our ship used the gap opened to try to break out of [Great Storm]. Just now [Great Storm] shrunk
The speed is unusual, I'm afraid the [Apostles] are playing tricks on it. If I hadn't been extra cautious and guarded outside the ship, the Dawn might have been crushed."
"You mean... they can even control [the Great Storm]?" Bedivere showed an incredulous expression.
"It's just a reasonable guess, not a conclusion." The King of Knights replied: "But it's better to prepare for the worst. Our opponent's ability far exceeds imagination, and he is not an enemy that can be guessed using normal logic under normal circumstances.
It’s better to assume that they are omnipotent monsters like gods.”
"Okay, okay..." The werewolf young man snorted and began to turn his attention to another holographic screen.
That's right, Dawn has left the Earth's atmosphere and is floating in the Earth's satellite orbit. From this distance, their target can be clearly seen, the so-called [Star Ark].
The Star Ark is like a golden, inverted cross. It shines gorgeously in this dark universe, and even a small amount of starlight can be reflected, making its outline always clear.
This huge [Star Ark] is more like a "space station" than a battleship. It does not have a huge propulsion structure like a real ship. Instead, it is more like a satellite orbiting the earth, just spinning in circles.
.
Needless to say, this space station is a remnant of the ancient gods and humans, a super-technological ancient heritage. The main gun [Wrath of God] beyond the specifications is not something that ordinary battleships can possess.
It is too dangerous to continue to allow this space station to exist. Even if it cannot be destroyed, it should at least be stationed in it and the enemies deployed there should be eliminated.
However, it is not easy to get close to [Star Ark]. At this time, everyone should have noticed that there is another ship parked next to [Star Ark], a real battleship. And Bediwell recognized it.
it.
That extremely luxurious golden warship - [Dawn], is exactly the property of Sherichard.
Now that ship has become the enemy of Bediwell and his party.
Well, the werewolf youth was not surprised at all. All this was even expected. When Father Sphinx came out to declare war on the world, Bedivere could have expected that Sherrichard and others
Will follow the Sphinx and become the enemy of the world.
"That woman's ship?" the King of Knights asked in a low voice.
"Well..." Bedivere replied nonchalantly. Although everything was as he expected, Bedivere was still quite disappointed when he saw the Dawn blocking their way.
"You always meet unkind people in your life, Bedi." King Arthur said half-jokingly: "Should it be that you have poor taste in picking women, or that you are really unlucky..."
"Stop teasing me." The werewolf youth hurriedly interrupted the topic: "Eve, tactical prediction: Just sail the Dawn over here, is it possible to avoid enemy detection by using the stealth system?"
"Calculating." The ship's automatic navigation system replied: "Calculation completed. Answer: The opponent's warship is equipped with a very advanced photon radar. From a distance of three thousand feet, our ship has a 70.335% probability of avoiding detection. The distance is three thousand feet.
Within 1,000 feet, the probability will drop to 32.751%. Within 1,000 feet, the probability will be 5.266%."
"In other words, as long as you get close, you will definitely be detected..." Bediwell hummed thoughtfully: "Then sail the ship to the extreme distance where it is not easily detected, and then accelerate and rush in at once.
.Battle is still inevitable, but, um... Nat, what anti-ship armaments are there on the Dawn?"
"Almost none." Fire Gunner Nat checked the system and replied: "The weapons that can be used are only two spare iron cavalry and one Luna Steel Harpoon. There is only one Harpoon. If it misses,
We don’t have any means of export."
Because the combat module of the Dawn must be as light as possible in order to rush out of the atmosphere at the fastest speed. Therefore, the ship did not carry any additional weapons when it set off. In addition to a few crew members participating in the operation, there were only two
The iron cavalry, and the only harpoon cannon. The power of the giant Luna steel harpoon is impeccable. As long as it hits, even the Dawn will be sunk. But the premise is that it can really hit the enemy.
If a large number of fighter jets were sent to harass the Dawn, I'm afraid there would be a hard fight here in an instant. How could just two iron cavalry fight against hundreds of thousands of fighter jets?
"It looks like I can use the [gravity sling] program I just got to swing the harpoon like a meteor hammer. This way I don't have to take the risk of launching it, and it can also provide a certain degree of force protection." Nutt continued.
: "But this little armament still makes people worried. Please decide who will drive the cavalry now. Let two to four people ride the cavalry to protect the ship. This is the only way."
"Two people are enough, we can't continue to spread the manpower." Bedivere hummed: "The ones here with relatively high shooting abilities are Nat and Ivan... Nat wants to control the gravity sling, so Ivan, go ahead."
"Of course." Hawkeye Ivan stood up: "I will shoot down as many enemy fighter jets as possible to ensure the safety of this ship. I just hope this is really enough."
"There is still one spot..." Bedivere ignored everyone present. But among the people present, there seems to be no one who is suitable for driving iron cavalry and has outstanding shooting ability. Most of the people here are warriors who are accustomed to close combat.
Not the gunman.
"I'll go." Strategist Eric loosened his seat belt and stood up: "My shooting ability cannot be expected, but I can use the large shield I brought to help the ship block as many shellings as possible. This battle has another
It’s not necessary to destroy all the enemies, but just let the Dawn successfully approach [Star Ark], right?”
"That's the truth. Then you can go." Bediwell said: "But you must come back alive. We will need your ability in the next battle, but don't die and disrupt our battle plan."
"Of course." Eric replied, running towards the machinery warehouse with Ivan.
"Transmission beam... No, the gravity sling is ready to be activated." Nat is also warming up the system: "The Luna Steel Harpoon is loaded. The gravity sling is nested. There are no abnormalities in the system. The gravity sling
It’s ready to use at any time."
"Honestly, what can it do?"
"From the instructions, it seems that the object grasped by the gravity sling can be freely swung back and forth, just like being pulled by a rope."
"Kind of like telekinesis?" Bedivere asked.
"Yes, it's a bit like telekinesis. The weapon held by the gravity sling will fly in that direction we want it to fly." Nat replied: "It's a pity that the current engine output of the Dawn is only enough for
The system provides enough energy to use one sling. Using a harpoon to attack the enemy is probably the limit. If we have enough energy, maybe we can control multiple gravity slings at the same time to destroy the surrounding enemy debris and even the universe.
Grab all the meteorites inside and throw them out like cannonballs..."
Wait, why does this operation sound so familiar?
By the way. Bediwell did remember that the [Dawn] could also use similar attacks. That ship used several golden beams to pick up rubble on the ground and even the corpses of monsters, and threw them out.
to repel the wave of monsters attacking Cairo.
I see. The Dawn at that time already had the authority to use the Gravity Sling. The Dawn at that time could only use the Teleportation Beam. The Dawn was probably a much more advanced weapon than the Dawn.
Boat.
Judging from the scene reflected in the distance, the Dawn has now been equipped with more main guns and secondary guns, and is armed to the teeth. It is probably a very difficult opponent.
Dawn still maintains its stealth system and is close to [Star Ark], but as it continues to approach [Dawn], the probability of its stealth being exposed is increasing. Everyone is watching the screen nervously, in order not to miss anything.
It might be the beginning of a war.
"...Oops!" The Knight King suddenly stood up: "Launch the gravity sling! Let the cavalry set off immediately! The battle has already begun!"
"What? How is it possible——"
"Look around you! Those are the mines released by [Dawn]!" Arthur shouted.
The werewolf youth then squinted his eyes and observed carefully. It was almost invisible to the naked eye, but there were many black concave spots in the surrounding starry sky. The black covered the bright starry sky one after another, as if they existed quietly in the dark universe.
