Starting from Zero

The gun god is not just talking nonsense. What he calls a way is actually a way. Just after the Frozen Banshee had finished speaking to the Gunners, the Gunners immediately issued orders to his hands, and then the guys who were standing on the battleship deck carrying special weapons began to turn around and direct the people around them to work. Up.

Actually, it’s not too complicated to say that it’s busy work, it’s just more physical effort.

Under the command of the player in front, those players and NPCs moved out something like a flying saucer from a temporary room at the back of the battleship. The shape of this thing is very similar to the flying saucer mentioned in the popular flying saucer legend in the past. The disc-shaped body is slightly protruding in the middle, and the surface is silver white. It looks like it is some kind of alloy with high hardness. The diameter of the thing is about three meters, not as big as expected, and the thickest part in the center is only 60 centimeters thick, which can be said to be relatively thin.

Although the volume is not very large, the weight of this thing does not seem to be light. It took a few people to get it to the front of the deck and hand it over to the player, and the player directly reached out. Click on the flying saucer, and the protrusion in the center of the flying saucer suddenly spread out, like a daisy in full bloom. A ring of grooves can be seen inside this open part, and around the grooves are the black coils raised by one by one, and this groove is obviously some kind of track device, with something like a pointer at both ends Connecting two identical coils is stuck in the groove, and looking at the bearing structure, this thing should be able to rotate in the groove.

After seeing this, the player directly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the bearing in the center of the pointer, and then the bearing bounced up a little bit. Although it looked like it could rotate before, the bearing that had been stuck in a stuck state suddenly became very slippery. It just turned on the bearing for a few laps without stopping after being touched.

After confirming that the thing can be turned, the player stood up and retreated to the side, and then people around came forward and turned the flying saucer over so that the open side was facing down, and then the player used the same method The device on the opposite side was operated. After the devices on both sides were in the same rotatable state, the player stepped back again, and the people around began to dive under the object and lift it up.

The player in charge of operating the weapon picked up something like his individual missile launcher again, then activated some switch on the sight, and then saw those people holding it in front A bright spot suddenly appeared on the edge of the circle around the flying saucer, and then the bright spot began to rotate along the edge of the flying saucer, and the speed became faster and faster, and because the rotating speed of the bright spot gradually exceeded the visible range of the human eye, So then this bright spot became an aperture in everyone's sight, and the flying saucer was also shaking and starting to lift off.

Watching the flying saucer slowly flew up, the others released their hands and stepped aside. The flying saucer originally looked cumbersome, but after flying up, it took a few seconds to stabilize and suddenly became extremely agile. The thing first went around the battleship a few times, and then suddenly moved towards the front and flew out, the speed was very fast, and it seemed that the maneuverability such as turning was quite exaggerated.

After these flying saucers flew straight to my fleet, and of course our side immediately noticed these things. After all, this thing is shiny and not too small.

After watching those things fly near us, of course, we immediately let all the flying units take off and prepare for the attack. After all, although the number of this thing is not too much, it can be regarded as a flying unit. And because of the high flexibility of this thing, we have to pay 120,000 points of attention to this thing.

Although our side is ready for a big air battle, what surprised us is that these things did not fly over our fleet, but were about five or six times away from our fleet. Stopped there a kilometer away. This situation made us quite surprised, but now we can only take a look and talk about it. After all, we don't know what these things are for or what they have. These all need to be observed to draw conclusions.

In fact, the Americans didn’t let us wait too long. The Gunslinger was obviously also an impatient guy. After those things arrived not far in front of our fleet, the holy guns were here. The player moved. The players carrying the launcher suddenly collectively pressed something on the launcher on their body, and then we found that the silver shells on the surface of the flying saucers suddenly expanded, and then exposed the extremely complicated internal structure below. However, this is not over yet. After these internal structures appeared, a layer of polyhedron composed of a large number of regular hexagons suddenly appeared around these things. This polyhedron is fairly regular, with a diameter of about four meters, and roughly looks like a circle. Because there are quite a lot of hexagonal structures on its surface, the overall structure of the polyhedron is close to a circle, but strictly speaking, it is a circle. Polyhedron instead of sphere.

This thing is completely composed of light film, it looks like a protective cover, but we can roughly be sure that this should not be a protective cover, because the magical fluctuations show that this thing has the characteristics of space-based magic. Non-energy force field.

The flying saucers are almost invisible after the light film is formed. The transparency of the light film surrounding them is not high, so it looks as if the flying saucer has become a polyhedral crystal block. However, these things are only just finishing their preparations at this time, and their true ability is not as simple as deformation.

After seeing the flying saucers here finished their preparations, the players of the Holy Lance League who launched the flying saucers started to move. They put their eyes on the sight and carefully moved the device on their shoulders. , And after aiming, one of the players fired first. As his finger pressed the trigger, the thing on his shoulder suddenly shot out a long white beam of light, which flew straight forward, and then traversed a distance of nearly sixty kilometers, directly hitting a suspended object. A flying saucer less than five kilometers in front of our fleet, or it hit the polyhedral light film unfolded by the flying saucer.

The beam of light accurately hits one face of the polyhedron, and then the other face of its N multiple faces suddenly lights up, and then a beam of light exactly as it hits it shoots from that face The beam of light flew directly to one of our battleships because of the pointing problem of this surface.

Buzz...With a sharp sharp sound, outside the battleship that was hit, a golden protective shield suddenly unfolded, and then the beam of light hit the protective shield straight and aroused a golden light, but Obviously, this kind of attack could not penetrate the protective cover, and soon the protective cover returned to its transparent state when the beam of light was extinguished.

Now we don’t have to guess again, the flying saucer should be a reflective prism, but it is not a physical prism but a magic prism. This thing can act as a transfer station, and the effect is similar to the space prism system used by the Babel Tower of our guild.

At this time, the distance between my fleet and the combined US-Russian fleet is as high as 65 kilometers, and everyone knows that Earth is round. Therefore, when our distance is large enough, between the two The sea in the middle is no longer flat, but arched. This arched sea is like a mountain between us and the combined US-Russian fleet. However, the attack method I used was an ultra-long-range cannon, and the projectile is not actually flying in a straight line. Because of the dual effects of gravitation and air resistance, the trajectory of the projectile will be a parabola, that is, the projectile can cross. The rising sea level in the middle achieves cross-shooting. In fact, in the theoretical model, as long as your shell's muzzle velocity is large enough, you can even make it circle Earth and hit the enemy behind you. However, the secret weapon of the Holy Lance League cannot do this.

Whether it is the light beam just shown by the other party or the light bomb before, they all have one common feature-flying along a straight line.

Although we haven't figured out how this weapon works, for now, it should be an energy weapon. Although the energy itself can actually be affected by the gravitational field, because this effect is too small, unless it is the astronomical calculation of the Universe level, we can basically think that the energy weapon is flying in a straight line. Will not turn at all.

Because of the direct fire method of this energy weapon, if it wants to hit us sixty-five kilometers away from its current position, it needs to penetrate a large area of ​​water before it can hit us. However, once the energy weapon hits the sea, it will be refracted and scattered or even be detonated directly. Anyway, it will not be able to hit the target of Chinese medicine.

Although direct fire weapons perform well in air defense, they suffer a lot in ground combat. Obviously, the effective range of that kind of beam is super high, but because of terrain blocking, it can't hit a target that is too far away. The Babel Tower of our guild has similar problems. The ultra-high energy output allows Babel Tower to strike targets on the moon's surface even from the ground, but without the assistance of a space prism, it can't even hit targets more than ten kilometers away. The solution to this trouble is to use a space prism.

The tower of Babel launches energy rays onto the stationary orbiting space prism directly above the tower of Babel in space, and then this space prism will be reflected two or three times to send the beam to the space closest to the target Above the prism, and then refraction the beam to return to the ground to hit the target.

Although the flying saucer of the Holy Gun League is incomparable with our space prism, the principle is basically the same. The flying saucer is suspended at high altitude, so there is no need to worry about the influence of the terrain. As long as the range is sufficient, the flying saucer can be aimed at even far apart, and the flying saucer can refract it when it is illuminated by the light beam and attack a large area below it.

This idea is very simple. To put it bluntly, it is to use refraction to turn the beam, but the technology needed to realize it is very complicated and precise. Not to mention that the flying saucer needs a certain amount of remote control ability to fly over the enemy's target, but the optical film that replaces the reflective prism is not generally artificial. Finally, hitting this four-meter-diameter thing from tens of kilometers away is not a simple matter in itself. After that, the flying saucer must accurately ensure that the reflected beam hits the target. All of this is not so easy. So the idea of ​​this thing is very simple, but the design principles are really complicated to death.

No matter how complicated this thing is, the Holy Lance League was created anyway, and it looks good. The first round attack hits all, which is even higher than our cannonball hit rate. Of course, we did not suffer from this attack. Although their attack hit rate is much higher than ours, but the formidable power of this weapon does not seem to be much higher than our shells, and our large battleships are all equipped with small city-level protective shields, so this first round attack was not correct. Our fleet caused any substantial losses. Of course, if you continue to be attacked like this, the final result will be the same as the flying destroyer that was damaged by them before, and there will definitely be real damage. Therefore, in order to avoid such damage, we need to solve these troubles in advance. Originally, our current advantage is not great, if we enter the war of attrition too early, we will suffer even more.

"Attention fleet, give priority to destroying those flying saucers." King Chuang immediately began to give orders without my instructions. After all, he is the naval commander of our Frost Rose League, and he is still very good at tactical issues.

After receiving the order, our battleship temporarily gave up its attack on the US-Russian combined fleet, but began to swing its guns and aim at the flying saucers in the sky.

These things are not directly above us, but are located five kilometers in front of our fleet, and the location is not particularly high. Because there is a distance of five kilometers, and the opponent's position is not very high, all kinds of artillery, including our battleship's main gun, can directly target these flying saucers. However, just after our side aimed at the flying saucers one after another and started to attack... accidentally appeared.

The distance of five kilometers is too close for our battleship, so the hit rate is amazing. However, although a large piece of shells that flew past accurately hit the target, the imaginary explosion was Did not happen. The artillery shells penetrated directly through the light film outside the flying saucer as if they had passed through a space door, but they did not enter the space behind the light film. Instead, they passed through the light film after a delay of a few tenths of a second. Flew out in the middle, and then returned to the same way moved towards our own battleship flew over.

"Fuck me!" Seeing a large number of densely packed shells flying down, our battleships hurriedly opened their shields, and then a large continuous explosion sounded our battleship. The protective cover shocked on the verge of collapse. This is the first time that the personnel on our battleship have experienced the formidable power of their own shells.

"What happened just now?" King Chuang rubbed his eyes in disbelief, hoping that he had misread it, but the fact is the fact. Although it did not cause any actual damage to our fleet, But the shells that flew back this round surprised us more than before. Because we thought of a possibility. Assuming that the other party’s flying saucers are not serving as refracting prisms here, but as full-time shields, what will happen? Unlike the protective cover, this thing just transmits the shells away. It does not need to resist the attack energy of the opponent. So what I can foresee is that this thing will definitely consume less energy than the protective cover, and the meaning of low energy consumption lies in them. It can be started for a long time, and it can even be turned on without turning off. In this way, the opponent would have a kind of invincible protective cover. How do you fight the battle behind this?

Faced with the special shields deployed by these flying saucers of the other side, we frowned on our side, but the US-Russian combined fleet was quite happy. Of course, not many people were excited this time, because most people couldn't see the effect of the attack. Even if those people who can see are told to come around, other people don't see it by themselves, so naturally they won't feel too excited.

However, although the players on the US-Russian combined fleet are not very excited, the depression on our side is not low at all. It was originally that we had been torturing the US-Russian combined fleet. Now the sudden appearance of these things means that we will unilaterally bully the US-Russian combined fleet to the need to shoot at each other. Moreover, if the other party has more of this thing that can form the Defensive Array column, then the form will be completely reversed and we will be unilaterally abused by the US-Russian combined fleet.

Fortunately, our luck is not really that bad. According to the intelligence of our investigative unit, the other side's small flying saucers are only so small in total, and they haven't appeared in large numbers.

In fact, our worries are a little redundant. As for the use of this special teleportation ability for defense, the Holy Lance League has explored before, but their conclusion is that it cannot be achieved under current conditions. .

First of all, because this thing will increase its energy consumption geometrically as its defense area increases, so simply cannot enlarge its volume. Even if a higher output energy system is used, the limit volume of this protective barrier is about the size of the previous polyhedron that has increased to about five meters in diameter. If it needs to be larger, the energy consumption will definitely cause people to collapse. Therefore, it is basically hopeless to expand the volume of this thing.

If the volume cannot be increased, this device cannot be directly mounted on the battleship, and if multiple small devices are arranged to form a large protective surface, this will not work, because this thing has Space Attribute, if the two devices are too close, there will be interference, and finally the space barrier is torn apart and sucked in by themselves. Therefore, there is no way to rely on multiple such devices to use large shields at the splicing area.

Of course, a large shield can't be formed, and the shield can block the shells by itself. Unfortunately, for this thing to actively block shells, it needs basic intelligence in this thing, but unfortunately, the Holy Lance League does not have this technology, so naturally it can't create a shield that can actively block shells by itself. Besides, even if it can be built, it can be used for ordinary attacks. Once a large-scale naval battle is entered, the two fleets often focus their firepower to attack each other’s targets sequentially. Therefore, the battleship that is regarded as the target will often be fired by multiple shells at the same time. Hit, even if the speed of this protective shield is faster, it is impossible to block so many targets at the same time, and if multiple protective shields are used, it will return to the interference problem.

In addition, even if it has high enough intelligence, for example, equipped with an artificial soul of the level of a mobile angel to operate this thing, it still has no way to block the shells, and the reason is that it is too slow. Although this thing showed quite good speed and flexibility when it flew from the US-Russian combined fleet to our side, the problem is that this speed is too far behind the speed of the artillery shell. To be able to block the cannonball in time when it finds it, the speed requirement is very high. Judging from the current speed of this thing alone, even if it can spot the flying artillery in advance, it is simply too late to intercept it.

In fact, in addition to the above restrictions, there is another place that makes the Holy Lance League very depressed. The cost of this small flying saucer-like space shield generator is a bit too high.

If it is our Frost Rose League, this thing should still be possible to build thousands of it, but the Holy Gun League is only one of the guilds in the United States, and its financial resources cannot be compared with our Frost Rose League. This species occupies most of China's advantageous resources, and there are also a large number of overseas colonies and super guilds in high-yield mining areas. Although it is a big expense for us to build thousands of this thing, we can still afford it, and the Holy Lance League currently has nearly a thousand such devices, but one catty is about to make it. bankrupted. This huge capital consumption is the key factor that limits the mass production of this gadget.

In general, this kind of device is actually only suitable to replace the prism to act as a refractor for the secret weapon of the Holy Gun League, because when acting as a refractor, this thing only needs to be kept still, and it is responsible for the operation. The player of the weapon will aim at it and fire, without the need for it to take the initiative to pick up the shells.

Of course, we don’t know all of the above. This is only the result of the Holy Lance League’s own research, so we are still quite worried here, for fear that the Holy Lance League will suddenly create a large group of this Stuff, then we are going to be unlucky.

"President, that thing will reflect and attack, what do we do if you can't move it?" After discovering that the shelling was ineffective, King Chuang turned around and asked me for help.

In fact, I was thinking about this question before Chuangwang asked. Speaking of which solution is not without, it is troublesome and inefficient.

The most direct way I think of is to fix these things by myself. Although the shells will be teleported, if I use the eternal attack, the eternal law power can connect to the space. Cut open together, the natural barrier has no meaning for eternity. As long as there is no such transmission barrier, this thing will become extremely fragile, and it can be destroyed in just a few clicks. But this method requires me to go one by one. Those things are not one or two, but there are as many as eight or nine hundred, although it is not one thousand, it is almost the same. When should I cut such a large number? Besides, those gadgets won't be fixed there waiting for me to slash. If I attack them, they will definitely run. This chase process will definitely consume a lot of time, so the efficiency is even worse. So, if I did it on my own, the effect was absolutely terrible.

The king of Chuang saw that I didn’t respond for a long time and asked again: "Boss? Do you have a solution? Our weapons can't reach that thing!"

"There is no solution. , It’s not very efficient.” I thought about it and said my thoughts.

After Chuang Wang listened to it, he had the same idea as me. It would be too slow to let me go alone, and it didn't make much sense. And even if I find a few players with similar abilities from the Frost Rose League who can handle these things, the result is the same, because there are definitely not many people, so the speed of elimination is not fast enough, and it will still suffer in the end.

We are really thinking about it. The US-Russian combined fleet really started to fire again, and this time they used the tactics they used to deal with our flying battleship, which was a concentrated fire attack. The benefit of this tactic is very obvious, that is, it can output a huge damage value in a short period of time so that the protective cover has no time to recharge and be penetrated.

In fact, what the US-Russian players in the US-Russia combined fleet don’t know is that the surface ships of our guild simply don’t have the perverted protective shield of an aerial battleship. Aerial battleship Because the internal solar furnace is very expensive, the protective covers are all abnormal grades, and because the solar furnace itself has a relatively large energy output and low energy costs, we are naturally willing to use a large protective cover. However, these all are battleships on the sea that are about to be retired. They still use magic crystal power, so the output power consumption is very low, and the energy cost is also quite high. In this case, even if you install a large protective cover, it will not start at all. Therefore, the sea battleship uses a lower energy shield, which is not as resistant as an aerial battleship.

After a round of fire gathering on the US-Russian combined fleet, the protective shield on the light cruiser that was the big target disappeared in an instant, and the hull was actually hit by a beam. A big hole appeared in the front armor plate instantly, and it was full of smoke. Fortunately, it didn't cause much impact. It just penetrated the armor. The battle strength of the battleship was basically sound.

first round kg The US-Russian combined fleet here just hopes that the strength of the protective cover can be worn off. Didn't expect to knock off the protective cover directly, which really made them feel a surprise . With this kind of excitement, the players of the Holy Lance League started the second round of shelling again, and the target was the cruiser.

"Dolphin II, slow down, right rudder, and get out of the bombardment array. Devil Ray, speed up to the top, help Dolphin II block." Chuangwang can dominate the whole situation while standing on the Eternal. When the Dolphin II's protective shield was gone, it immediately ordered the fleet to adjust its formation, using the huge hull of the Devil Fish battleship in front of the Dolphin II to temporarily block the artillery shells for time to repair the protective shield.

Unfortunately, the rate of fire of the weapons in the Holy Lance League was too high. The Devil Ray just came to speed up to cover the hull of Dolphin II one third, and Dolphin II was hit by a second round. , And was washed again without a protective cover.

Although the secret weapon of the Holy Lance League is launched by individual soldiers, it can be seen from the pipeline that it is a heavy weapon and requires external energy, so the formidable power is real. The entire bow of the Dolphin II, which had been washed by intensive firepower, was blown up. In the thick smoke, it began to sink at a high speed after turning the bubbles, and only half of the mast was left in the blink of an eye.

"Your sister!" King Chuang was angry when he saw that there was a battleship on our side and it sank, and he shouted directly at the communicator: "Don't worry about the defense, give me full shelling, and we will take advantage of the damage. ."
