Him and their stars.

Chapter 780 Battle Meeting
Yu Lian couldn't help turning his head to look at the two twin girls.He was really surprised this time.

In his memory, these triangle-shaped things that look like flat arrows, as well as their round spherical mother machines, are New World wild monsters called "automatic mining machines".Of course, they are well known to the public, but it is already twenty or thirty years later.

It is said to be a "mining machine", but these guys are really not purely civilian equipment.They are extremely fast, maneuverable, and also have a jump function.In addition, whether it is a heavy ion impactor used to destroy planetary rocks or a laser that cuts minerals, bombarding the armor of a battleship can also kill people.

It's really hard for people to accept that these things are mining equipment.But in fact, in the last timeline, when this kind of ancient automatic equipment was discovered by explorers, they were indeed working diligently in that uninhabited galaxy full of broken asteroids, like a group of bees that don't know how to get tired of.

It was only when the explorers got very close to them that they were not particular about it, and they were completely alarmed.

According to later calculations by scientists, these automatic mining machines are relics left by the Enlightened Ones. In addition to mining, they also have the function of protecting minerals and refining equipment.They are ancient creations who don't know how many years ago, but after their creators have been annihilated from this universe...or have ascended beyond the ordinary, they are still dedicated to fulfilling the rules formulated countless millions of years ago. Work program.

Overall, these mining drones are fairly harmless.As long as you don't get close to their work area, even if you pass by the same galaxy, their early warning mechanism will not be triggered.

However, they did have examples of runaways.I don't know why, it's like taking too much gunpowder, and will actively attack all artificial creations and star beasts passing by the galaxy, and occasionally even jump away to attack nearby human strongholds.

It was not until more than half a century later that the Alliance Academy of Sciences finally made a judgment that the price comparison conforms to scientific laws.After the automatic drone is out of control, it is indeed possible to attack all targets in the galaxy except itself, but it will not leave the galaxy.All attempts to attack other targets across the galaxy are veritable wrongdoings.

Subsequently, the Alliance Academy of Sciences announced a complete set of signal data encoding of these mining drones. With these regular encoding systems, high-power data processors can be used for real-time checking and calculation.If you are lucky, you may be able to disarm these mining drones, or even take over their control.

It was Sadaharu Aragaki, who had become a foreign academician of the Alliance Academy of Sciences at that time, the former vice president of the Imperial International Students Association, and a good friend of Tan Jize, who studied and sorted out this set of data codes.

Well, he is indeed working on his PhD in mathematics at the Union right now.

Anyway, with the help of this great scientist, mining drones have gone from dangerous mobs to treasures.You know, this kind of civilian robot can actually fight against warships, and it is still running after countless billions of years, which really subverts everyone's imagination.It is conceivable that there are countless treasures contained in their mechanical bodies.

Exploding them will not explode gold coins, but it will definitely explode a lot of black technology products.Ordinary bounty hunters will receive huge rewards if they hand over the wreckage of the destroyed drone to the official forces of a big country such as the Alliance or the Empire.

Anyway, the civilization of the galaxy countries has developed to the scale it is today, isn't it just relying on various grave digging to take off?

In short, explore, fight wild monsters, and sell corpses.A thriving industry has formed around the mining industry.

The New World is a vast universe that is wider than the Milky Way galaxy. Until the time when Yu Lian came back, the exploration of it was far from over, and this industry will still be a blue ocean for a long time.

However, that was already the previous timeline.In this timeline, these guys did appear twenty years in advance, and the difficulty was directly upgraded from wild monster to boss level.

However, how did my two nieces and nieces know about their existence?

"It's Grand Master, an old man. He met some time ago when he was exploring the New World." Gan Jiang said: "He found these robots when he passed by an uninhabited galaxy, and he used spiritual energy to cover the ship he was riding on, so that he was not caught. They found it. Therefore, Grand Master drove the boat closer and collected some information. Currently, it is tentatively named Unknown Ancient Mining Robot 01."

"Mining robot?" Except for Yu Lian, everyone present was puzzled.

"It's indeed a mining robot! At least according to Grand Master's observations, those guys are indeed mining." The general said.

"As for where we found it, we can't say." Mo Xie added seriously, while seeming to glance at Yu Lian out of the corner of his eye.

Yu Lian immediately understood.Master, the old man is on his way to find another part of the inheritance, that is, the mobs around the big skull mark on the secret star map, right?

"Hasn't the Lingyan Society thought about reporting such important information to the military?" Eleanor seemed a little dissatisfied.

"At least according to the laws of our country, citizens have the right to remain silent." Mo Xie glanced at the other party: "Non-governmental organizations have more star map information than the government, isn't it a matter of course?"

Eleanor was not angry, but giggled instead: "Indeed, some secrets are better in the hands of Real Lan than in the hands of the masters of Congress."

"How is the combat effectiveness?" Yang Xiyi asked a practical question straight to the point.

"I don't know about the circular ones. Grand Master speculates that they should be command planes and transport planes. These triangular ones are very powerful, and they can directly smash asteroids with space wave weapons and directly collect internal minerals."

That is actually the wave impact caused by the polymerization of heavy ions, not the space vibration... Hey, forget it, anyway, the sound and light effect is similar to the damage to the real object, but the damage to the electromagnetic shield is much stronger than the shock weapon.

Yu Lian thought of this, and then said: "Don't use our existing thinking to judge the enemy we contacted for the first time. Some things look like vibratory cannons, but they are vibratory cannons when they hit them, but they can't be said to be ineffective if they hit them. .”

The twin sisters looked at each other, but then the general nodded and said: "Uncle Xiao is right. Maybe it just looks like a vibrating cannon. Grand Master also made a special note, saying that he is not a technology expert and can only judge by impression." , if you encounter it, you must be careful."

Mo Xie also nodded: "So what Master said is right! Although my little uncle is reckless, he is actually a steady person in his bones. It is completely different from Aunt Erinke who is reckless both on the surface and in his bones."

"Before the battle, let the guarded unmanned sentinel turret emit dense missiles to force the opponent to counterattack. Then collect data on the spot." Yang Xiyi ordered.

What he meant was to calculate its nature through the energy residue formed by the opponent's bombardment scene.

"Is it too late?" Brigadier General Mark Love couldn't help frowning.

"Information is always collected, even if it is not used this time, it will be used next time." Yang Xiyi said.

Yu Lian thought, at this time, a set of advanced equipment and a reliable scientific analysis team are needed.It would be even better if it was led by a psyker from the "wisdom" ring.

At this time, Mo Xie said again: "In addition, there are lasers used to cut minerals, and their power should not be underestimated. Grand Master said that he saw their lasers cut an asteroid with a radius of more than one kilometer into pieces, yes The damage of the battleship armor should not be small. Uh, I can’t tell what kind of light it is now, let’s take it as a laser.”

The general said, "However, they don't have shields."

"And it's not too hard." Mo Xie said.

"No shield?" Yang Xiyi's eyes lit up: "How can you tell?"

"Great Master used psychic energy to interfere with a drone and let it fire at the companion next to it. It really didn't produce a shield reaction, and it sank with one shot."

Everyone was dumbfounded, and then looked at the "strongest" psychic on the scene, that is, Yu Lian.

Feifei, who was sitting in the corner of the meeting room as a recorder, picked up the teacup and took a long gulp.

"It can be done." Yu Lian said solemnly: "With the ability of Master and his old man, as long as he can see the target, he can use spiritual power to pull the opponent tens of thousands of kilometers away, just shift the muzzle slightly. .”

Attack the strong and defend the weak!Yang Xiyi immediately had a solid conclusion in his mind: "Colonel Yu Lian is right. We really can't judge the power of these things with our inherent common sense. Let's just treat these things as an assault ship with the firepower of a cruiser. This This kind of extreme design has existed before. The famous devil ray-class assault ship was very popular in the third galaxy war. However, its advantages and disadvantages are very obvious."

Indeed, this kind of small warship with extremely enhanced firepower is destined to be designed with thin skin and big stuffing, and it is easy to become the prey of smaller fighters.Even encountering a stormtrooper wearing a space gliding pendant can easily be beaten to death.

Of course, Yu Lian knew that the main reason why these drones did not have shields and thick armor was that they were "civilian machines" for mining after all, so naturally they didn't need those that were missing.

Then, everyone looked at the fuzzy spherical flying objects again and fell into deep thought.

So far, there has never been a warship of this shape in the universe, which really subverted his cognition a bit.

Eleanor Bonaparte said: "The combat effectiveness of these things is unknown. However, if they are really transport ships or mother planes, destroying them will affect those triangular combat ships."

Major General Mark Love nodded slightly: "Just find a way to get the Saratoga and the three light ships to the near battlefield..."

Having said that, the old man hesitated for a moment, and looked at Yu Lian.

Of course Yu Lian understood what the other party meant: "The Scarlet Throne can be used as a protective force for the main assault. Although that guy is still in the dock, I will ask everyone to work overtime, at least the basic protective facilities can be completed. The firepower cannot be repaired yet. But it can also be used as an armored aircraft carrier."

"If it doesn't work, you can still use the White Devil squad to penetrate the defense!" The fleet's air combat director, Colonel James Dutt added.

...Those X21 White Devils, I was thinking about surprising the Empire.Yu Lian thought.

Teacher Yang said with a smile: "It's a pity, the White Devil's new equipment, I plan to use it on the emperor... ahem, it can be used on other things. In short, this can be used as our backup plan. Then, at the beginning of the battle, we will The Throne, Saratoga, and three light motherships serve as the B cluster, under the direct and unified command of Major General Mark Love."

In any case, fighting is not playing Beast Chess, even if you know how to deal with the enemy, you need to flexibly configure it on the battlefield.

Fortunately, Mr. Yang even has a backup battle plan, and it seems that he is very confident.

He opened the last big picture again with a blank face.Ever since, a thing that can make people's scalp tingle with a bare head came into everyone's eyes.

"As for this thing..." Even Yang Xiyi felt a headache when he saw this cosmic disaster in action.He really wanted to press his temples and complain, but considering that he was the supreme commander, if he lost his composure, the morale of the big guys might collapse.

Yu Lian looked at the frowning crowd calmly, and said lightly, "Let me deal with it."

Yang Xiyi was silent for a few seconds. Although his expression didn't change, his voice seemed hesitant and heavy for the first time: "The last time this thing appeared in the empire, they used a Titan ship."

"They are all star-eating insects, but the size of this thing is only half of the size of the empire, so it can be regarded as a juvenile. However, even if it is a juvenile, the skin is as thick as the outer wall of a Titan ship. We now Some weapons have limited killing effects on them. In that case, let’s use mystical methods.” Yu Lian said.

"You...Colonel Yulian!" Eleanor said with a straight face, "This is a battle meeting, are you sure?"

"At least three... no, more than forty percent." Yu Lian looked directly into the senior sister's eyes and smiled: "There is no way, the Scarlet Throne is still undergoing major repairs, even if it is barely able to fight, her firepower is not enough. It's far from enough. If we have one or two Titans in our hands... no, a few dreadnoughts or even a dozen arsenal ships with enhanced firepower will be enough, why should I show off my bravery."

That's it!After all, I'm also a lunar person, and I'm a high-achieving student trained by the reserve admiral!Isn't it good to sit in the command position and give orders?My classmates were either captains or staff officers, but I insisted on rushing forward with a knife, making labor and management look like physical laborers.

"However, if I don't take this risk, this bug will easily tear through our defense." Speaking of this, he showed a calm and unpredictable smile: "To be honest, this thing is It's scary, but from the perspective of mysticism, it's really not as good as when I charged at the God of War Festival. Moreover, it's really unreasonable for a thing like the Star Devourer to obey the predator's commands. I must do it as soon as possible. Know the reason for this! Otherwise, the problem will be very serious."

Seeing that everyone didn't answer immediately, Yu Lian laughed again: "The universe is huge, and there are quite a few planet-level natural disasters. But the reason why we humans can get to this point is naturally because everyone is very good at playing." Tian Ji’s method of horse racing. No one here understands psychic power better than me. So, please, Commander, and all the leaders respect my choice.”

Eleanor knew that the other party was right, but she still gave Feifei a reluctant look.

Major Fina Li, who once again disguised herself as a military newspaper reporter, sat in the corner of the meeting room, continuing to take notes during the meeting.She hasn't interrupted since just now, so she's not ready now.

Of course, she didn't forget to take another two sips of tea.

Yang Xiyi took a deep look at Yu Lian, tapped his fingers on the table, and did not make any objection: "Then, just do what you are best at."
