Alien Relic Hunter.

Chapter 820 Fallen Angels Join the Battle

In fact, the ancient battleship originally had another name. If read in the language of the Alpha civilization, it was called "Eternity". When Ke Lan activated the battleship console for the first time, the information that flooded into his mind included the name.But Ke Lan felt that the name was too secondary, and many science fiction works have appeared in warships or space stations with this name, so after gaining control of the battleship, he immediately put the battleship The name was changed to "Yagunaktor".

Although it is more convoluted than Eternal, at least it is not easy to confuse... Besides, anyway, in the files of the Undead Crew Association and the Security Bureau, "Yagunaktor" is used as the ancient battleship. code name, it is understandable to change it to this name.

After gaining control, Ke Lan and "Yagunaktor" established a wonderful "neural connection", but this connection will only occur when Ke Lan is inside or near the battleship. However, now, he is in the core area of ​​the gray mist forest, and he is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from "Yagunaktor". Logically speaking, it is impossible for the neural connection to span such a long distance.

But he received a message from "Yagunaktor" in Tongtian Tower.

Also, the message claims that "Yagunaktor" is under attack!
……

N45 airspace, combat zone.

After the air combat units of other warships rushed to support, the situation on the "New Dawn" finally eased a little bit. Returning to the battlefield, Yeager and Hanston felt the pressure greatly reduced.

"Huh... It seems that we can take a breather for the time being." Yegel said, "My cannon shells have been completely exhausted, and the core module of the laser cannon has also been melted due to multiple overheating. Now the weapons that can be used on the whole machine There are only three unguided missiles left... If the other party releases a batch of drones, I'm afraid I can only choose to drive a plane and hit them head-on."

"'Betelgeuse' is a bit far away from us. If we go back to supply now, I'm afraid it will be affected by the enemy's naval guns... My suggestion is that we directly let the 'New Dawn' take charge of our supply operations. The current situation is special. I think the flagship should not refuse our request."

"It's okay, I'm afraid the flagship doesn't have spare parts for our old-fashioned fighter jets..." Yeager sighed, "I heard that two months ago, all the carrier-based aircraft of the flagship were replaced by Veyron class. "

"It's really not possible, let them give us two Veyrons... Anyway, the Veyron and Raven use the same operation mode, the difference in performance, you can get used to it soon after getting started." Hans said .

"You have a beautiful idea. To be honest, I also want to drive the Veyron class, but I'm afraid there won't be many airframes left for us." Yegel continued, "Although the number of carrier-based aircraft is generally based on The number of pilots is [-] to [-] times, but just after the first round of battles, the fighter jets that returned were seriously damaged, and they will definitely not be able to repair them in a short time... Now the batch they have launched The fighter jets are probably the extra inventory. Hey, good things are reserved for those 'aces', not for us."

Although the qualifications and driving skills of Yegel and Hans can also wrestle with the ace pilots on the flagship, after all, the two of them were transferred from the Ark Guard Fleet, although they have served for more than ten years. , but there are not many actual combats involved.Almost all of the "ace pilots" deployed on the flagship were transferred back from the front-line theater.

According to the old era, the two are equivalent to the imperial guards guarding the capital and the border guards guarding the border—the former must have the best treatment and equipment, but in terms of combat effectiveness and combat experience, the border guards who have endured the baptism of war all the year round The army is definitely not comparable to any mainland army... Actual combat and training are ultimately different.

For example, in the battle just now, whenever more than five drones broke through the blockade, those "aces" brought back from the front-line theater would bump into them without hesitation... If Yeager In the same situation as Hans, they would most likely hesitate, at least not so decisively.

"Let's go, I'm grateful that the flagship can help us refill the thruster fuel and ammunition. If possible, I like that they can replace me with a laser module with a higher power... Wait!"

Just when Yegel and Hans were about to go to the hangar of the "New Dawn" for resupply, dozens of humanoid mechas suddenly flew out from the aircraft carrier battleship of the Black Fleet, and they exceeded the power limit of the flying mechas. The speed flew towards the "New Dawn".

"What is that? Mecha? It's still in human form... How could a humanoid mecha fly so fast?!" Yegel couldn't help but whispered.

"It seems...they have large propellers installed on their backs...but with that level of G-force, even wearing an anti-G suit and a deep-diving cockpit, the human body can't bear it...unless the pilots of these machines All the members are high-level enhanced people." Hans murmured.

The officers and soldiers of the Zero Fleet were unfamiliar and surprised by these humanoid mechas that suddenly appeared, but if the bloodhound and others or the soldiers who participated in the battle at the ruins of the ancient bronze city saw these mechas, they should be amazed at this moment. Call out the name directly——

"Fallen Angel mass production type".

It was the mecha copied by the Undead Crew with reference to the "blasphemer mecha" of the Alpha civilization...not so much a mecha, but a cutting-edge weapon that is half mechanical and half biological, in a semi-conscious state The living CPU of the robot is directly bound to the mech's operating system through a neural link, which can not only maximize the performance of the weapon, but also integrate human combat experience and combat instinct with AI operation. It is simply... perfect killing machine.

These "weapons" are stored in low-temperature chambers during non-combat times, and when "they" need to be used, electric shocks are used to wake up the living CPU in deep sleep—but these living CPUs will not completely When they wake up, their brains have gone through multiple "surgeries" and they have lost the ability to think for themselves forever.

The only thing that has been preserved is the nerve center responsible for movement... There is one thing that the Undead Crew Club did not tell Ke Lan and them that the living CPU of the "Fallen Angel mass-produced" does not have to be limited to ace pilots, experienced soldiers, Veteran relic hunters who have narrowly escaped death many times, notorious mercenaries...even illegal fighters who fight in the underground black market can all be excellent candidates for living CPUs.

After all, this thing is not controlled by joysticks and keyboards. The Fallen Angel Mecha is more like an extension of human hands and feet... The parts it needs can actually be reduced to a brain and a spine... But due to the neural connection The technology of refuting is not perfect, so the torso and limbs of the living CPU are preserved, and they are also connected to the body's movement module through electrodes.

"So fast! Twenty seconds, no! We're going to meet the enemy in ten seconds!" Yegel yelled, "I can't lock these things, back up! Let's back up!"

He held the joystick tightly with his left hand, and slammed the control panel with his right hand—suddenly, the thruster nozzles under the wings on both sides turned 180 degrees, and the tail flames more than ten meters long shot out forward, pushing With the entire Raven-class fighter back quickly.

But Hans's reaction was a beat slower - although the thruster's fixing bracket can be adjusted at all angles, in fact, turning the thruster 180 degrees is a violation method that is strictly prohibited in the operation manual, because Yeager often He likes to study some unconventional operations, so he can unlock and change the control instructions in just one second, but Hans is different.

After hearing Yegel tell him to back off, he could only choose to turn the nose of the plane... He was only two or three seconds slower than Yegel, and it was too late.

The time it took for those humanoid mechas to break into the blockade of the Zero Fleet's air combat force was not twenty seconds, nor ten seconds, but only six seconds.

Each "Fallen Angel mass-produced type" is equipped with propellers several times larger than the machine body, and four more than 30-meter-long fuel tanks are bundled together. High-performance chemical fuel and high-grade energy crystals simultaneously give The thrusters are powered—from the moment they left the mothership, these bodies were constantly accelerating, and when they rushed to the front, their actual speed had even exceeded Mach ten.

Mach 400... that is, ten times the speed of sound, a distance of [-] meters can be crossed in one second... If this is a fighter jet, the pilot would probably have passed out due to the excessive G force at this time .

But living CPUs don't go into a coma... because they're always in a coma.

Even if the brain soaked in the LCL liquid shuts down due to G force, the brain of the living CPU will be awakened again through electric shocks in the body.

The mass-produced fallen angels are all one-time consumables, and those who use them don't care about the damage to the living CPU at all... For such weapons that are equivalent to losses, users will definitely find ways to squeeze out their full value .

After a mass-produced Fallen Angel broke into the blocking formation of the No. [-] Fleet's air combat unit, it threw away the large thrusters installed behind it, and did several flips in mid-air to resolve the huge inertia. The heavy armor-piercing sword on the side.

Not far from the mass-produced Fallen Angel, there happened to be a Raven-class high-speed fighter that had just completed a U-turn.

Due to the first angle of view, Hans didn't notice that there was a mecha rushing in more than ten meters behind him, but Yegel, who retreated in the way of "reversing into the warehouse", saw this scene clearly.

He watched helplessly as the headless black mech raised its arm, and then vigorously threw the red sword-shaped weapon towards Hans' landline.

In order to save costs, the mass-produced armor-piercing sword of the fallen angel did not adopt the same structure as the blasphemer mech. The inside of the sword body did not install an energy shield generator and a special magnetic field to restrain the energy shield. It is to simply and roughly heat the blade made of Nino alloy to a high temperature of several thousand degrees, and use this method to improve the cutting ability of the armor-piercing sword.

The bright red blade cut Hans's plane in half without hindrance like a utility knife cutting paper. Hans sitting in the cockpit didn't even have a chance to eject and parachute, and was crushed by the high temperature. The blade was carbonized, turning into fine ashes that floated in the air.

As for the two pieces of wreckage of the Raven Fighter, it fell straight down, and then exploded in mid-air.

"Hans!!" Looking at an inconspicuous firework on the landline battlefield of his former partner, Yegel's eyes were tearing apart. He roared loudly, and turned the propeller that was originally spraying forward to the rear. At the same time, the power limiting valve of the energy crystallization engine was lifted, and the output power of the engine was raised to [-]% of the rated power in one go!

It stands to reason that the energy crystallization engine of Yeger's landline should directly transform into a crystal energy bomb at this time, blowing him and the fighter plane to pieces together, but probably Goddess of Luck took another look at him at this time, although the screen is full They were all bright red warning words, but the engine miraculously did not blow up, and it still maintained a relatively stable running state.

"Master ground staff is really... amazing." Yegel knew in his heart that he was still alive, and it was entirely due to the hard work of the ground staff - the ground staff who knew him well knew that he liked to play tricks and do extreme operations, so in I have done a lot of "hands and feet" on this engine. If you want to calculate the cost, for the same model of engine, the engine cost of my fighter jet is at least three times that of other Ravens.

"Bastard! Die! Give me back Hans' life!!" Yeager roared, and drove the Raven fighter jet to the mass-produced Fallen Angel that shot down Hans—of course, until At this time, he still didn't know the name of the opponent's body.

The remaining three unguided missiles were all launched and bombarded the body of the mecha—the armor of that mecha was very thick, and it seemed to be made of pure Nino alloy. The unguided missiles did not attack It caused any substantial damage, but only left some inconspicuous scratches.

But for Yeager, these three missiles are just a cover. The real "missile" is actually the Raven-class fighter he is driving.

He increased the engine power to three times the overload not only for acceleration, but also to turn this fighter into a high-speed moving crystal energy bomb!

"I don't believe...without that big thruster...with the speed of your bastard...you can dodge..." Blood overflowed from the corner of Yegel's mouth, and the excessive G force made him feel himself It seemed as though his internal organs were about to burst, but he still held the joystick tightly, without relaxing at all.
