v4 Chapter 976: Star Destroyer! Overstrike
In the next half an hour, the triangular pyramid spacecraft released a ring, which expanded continuously, enclosing the spacecraft.
After the ring expanded to ten kilometers in diameter, a halo lit up and began to absorb the heat and light of the sun.
"Is it absorbing the sun's energy? Is it... charging?"
Seeing the triangular pyramid spacecraft begin to absorb the light and heat of the sun, the first reaction of many people feels like they are "charging."
After all, the behavior of charging is too familiar to humans.
"It should be impossible. For higher civilizations, quality is energy. If you really want to supplement energy, you only need to install the hydrogen element from the sun. There is no need to perform such complicated actions."
Soon scientific researchers conducted a reasonable analysis and denied this "charge" speculation.
Immediately after.
The apex of the triangular pyramid spacecraft cracked at the tip of the earth, split into three petals, suspended around the spacecraft, exposing something like an "electrode needle" in the middle.
Then, the "electrode needle" began to shine, and it was focusing energy.
In the analysis team, someone suddenly exclaimed: "It's not charging, it's charging, wouldn't it be a laser cannon?!"
This cry of exclamation came out, and most people felt the same.
From the picture, the entire triangular pyramid spacecraft looks like a laser cannon.
Moreover, the side length of this laser cannon reaches 1677.3 meters, which is a terrible length.
The human-made Beast Guard One-day-based cannon has a barrel length of only 107 meters.
Even so, the space-based cannon dominates the sky of the beast planet.
Now, a huge gun with a length of 1677.3 meters appeared on the sun. What does this mean?
And this is a giant artillery of advanced civilization.
A suffocating breath filled everyone's hearts.
"Impossible. It should be just charging. Does it want to fire from the sun?" Some people were puzzled.
Before this, no one could have imagined this situation.
The ring released by the triangular pyramid spacecraft continues to absorb the energy of the sun and gathers on the muzzle to the top.
The focused energy emits more and more intense light, forming a dazzling spot on the solar flare.
"Analyze the possibility of the washer spacecraft firing from the sun now!" Admiral Rodriguez looked serious and immediately ordered the teams of various departments to analyze.
Before that.
Mankind has been actively preparing for war, preparing for a doomsday battle with the purgers.
To this end, space battleships were built from the docks, ascended into space, and joined the space fleet.
In just three years, mankind has built a large-scale space fleet, confident enough to compete with the Purge civilization.
However, no one could have imagined that this battle might not exist from beginning to end.
Soon, the general staff gave preliminary analysis results.
"It takes 8 minutes and 18 seconds for light to shoot from the sun to the earth. If the washer spacecraft launches laser weapons, it can indeed strike the earth from the sun when it is powered by the sun."
This answer is a little hopeless.
The washer spacecraft is backed by the sun, which is equivalent to an unlimited energy supply.
If its weapons can reach the earth from the sun, then this situation is like humans bombarding the star beast civilization with a beast-guard one-day-based giant artillery.
Complete air control and rolling.
When the scale of war expanded to the range of the star system, there was no longer a concept of air superiority.
Air dominance has evolved into another thing called "over-range strike".
That is to hit the target at a super distance.
The Beast Guard's one-day base cannon can be regarded as a kind of over-range strike.
Star Beast civilization took Beast Guard’s space-based giant cannon, basically there was nothing to do, only to be beaten.
Mankind once used this "over-distance strike" method to deserve the war against the star beast civilization.
Now, we are about to face the "super-distance strike" of a higher civilization.
Moreover, there is no way to resist.
Originally, human beings had planned to fight to the death with the Cleaners, even if they were to bet on the entire space fleet.
However, for the first time the cruelty of the universe was revealed to humans.
The Purge civilization did not give mankind any chance to resist.
Humans have formed a huge space fleet, but now it is like a pile of toys, without any effect.
"Can it be confirmed that it is an'over-range strike'?" Admiral Rod took a deep breath and asked again.
"From the perspective of the total amount of energy charged, it has exceeded the normal charging energy of a spacecraft. It must be charging the weapon. This must be an'overstrike' weapon, and from the results of the star energy spectrum analysis, it should be It's gamma rays!" The staff analysis team gave a desperate answer.
gamma rays.
The most powerful rays in the universe.
As long as the energy is sufficient, even a planet can be destroyed.
"How long will it take to charge? How long do we have?" Admiral Rod continued to ask.
"According to the charging schedule, the gamma ray cannon will be launched within 12 hours." The staff gave an estimated time.
"Is there a countermeasure?" Admiral Rod asked again.
No one answered this time.
Because the answer is actually known to everyone.
How desperate the Star Beast Civilization was when faced with the Beast Guard's One-day Giant Cannon, now humans are desperate.
The distance between the sun and the earth is too far for mankind today.
An advanced civilization that can issue "over-range strikes" on the scale of a star system has not been able to contend with a planetary civilization like humans from the beginning.
Some human countries have begun to appear collapsed.
"I knew that from the beginning there was no chance of winning."
"Where is the Favored Organization? That may be the only chance to survive."
There are even human nations that have begun to scramble for the space of transport ships, wanting to escape from the earth before destruction comes.
What is even more desperate is that for gamma-ray weapons, the speed at which they exit is the speed of light.
Therefore, humans can't even see the firing movement of the washer spacecraft, because the moment they saw it, the gamma-ray cannon had already bombed the earth.
...
The Supreme Council of Human Civilization still did not give up.
Admiral Rod asked again: "Is the space fleet proactively attacking, is it possible to prevent the cleaners from firing?"
"The possibility is zero. At the current speed of the space fleet, it will take at least ten days from the earth to reach the sun. At this time, the earth may no longer exist." The staff gave an answer.
This is the "over-range strike", and the opponent does not even have the opportunity to strike back.
After understanding this, some countries began to believe that the space fleet should be full of human elites and escape from the earth within 12 hours.
This plan sounds bad, but it is indeed a way to allow some humans to survive.
However, if this is done, the surviving part of the people will wander in the universe, in the deep space of the universe where resources are scarce, and the future is also uncertain.
