Warhammer: Beginning with Planetary Governors

Chapter 146 "Dream"'s first attack!
Ron was still a little panicked when he saw the fleet in the sky pointing its guns at the hive city.

The brutal tithe tax and the continuous rebellions that spread throughout the hive almost destroyed all of the hive's defenses.

Many important defense areas are still in a state of disrepair and dilapidated.

The resources required to repair and renovate the "Dream" were too many, so he had to suspend the restoration work in those areas.

Today's nest city is just a mere decoration, with no ground defense array to fight back.

Moreover, the void shield of the hive city was only lit up symbolically.

I guess after a few rounds of attacks, the void shield will be broken.

Obviously, that fleet also discovered this weakness, which is why they dared to hover over the hive so unscrupulously.

Whoosh, boom, boom——

Three cruisers and more than twenty frigates launched a round of attacks on the hive city using ship-borne weapons.

The ship's macro cannons and light spears fired a salvo, and a large number of shells and rays hit the void shield.

The violent explosion produced flames, and the shock wave spread across the translucent energy shield of the Void Shield.

Defended.

Ron breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the situation is not optimistic, because the energy layer of the Void Shield has become unstable, and even shaking can be clearly seen.

The Hive City's void shield can't hold on any longer!
He was very worried:
"Where's that guy Kaul? Where did he go? Is there any problem with him?"

If the battle plan goes wrong, the hive will be destroyed.

It really feels so uncomfortable to be at the mercy of others.

After surviving this battle, he will gradually build Ers into an unbreakable planetary fortress.

Inside the bridge of the giant cruiser, the fleet commander sneered.

Two rounds of attacks at most will be enough to break the ground shield. By that time, the entire planet will tremble under his feet!
boom!
Rays of shining spears of light came at us.

Several frigates were shot down and crashed into the void shield, turning into flames.

Seeing this scene, Ron wiped the cold sweat from his head and felt completely relieved.

The Dream is on the move!

After discovering the fleet's arrival, he immediately ordered Kohl to stop maintenance and renovation and hide the Dream.

The ancient device on board the Dream called "Curtain of the Supreme Sky" can effectively diffuse and shield the energy signals of the spacecraft.

When the warship shields energy signals and enters low-power silent operation, it is difficult to detect.

Now that the war had begun, the Dream had no need to hide.

The sudden attack made the fleet commander furious.

He asked:

"What's going on? Didn't they say that no ground-based air defense forces were detected?"

"Attack the battleships from the enemy!"

"what?"

As expected, the fleet commander looked at the scanner and saw that an enemy ship had circled behind the fleet at some point.

"Get rid of the aerial threat first!"

Led by the giant cruiser, the fleet turned around and chased the enemy ships outside the atmosphere.

When the fleet approached, the fleet commander finally saw the appearance of the enemy ships through the observation dome of the bridge.

It is silver-white all over and does not look like an imperial warship at all, and it cannot be classified.

Judging from its size, it is at most an ordinary cruiser, one size smaller than his giant cruiser.

Moreover, there were engineering machinery hanging on the enemy ship, which seemed to indicate that it had not been completed yet.

Seems a little funny.

The fleet commander frowned:
"Is this the reason they dare to resist us?"

It is obvious that this battleship was pieced together and many of its parts are slightly old.

Were these natives trying to resist his fleet with this piecemeal junk ship?

Thinking of this, the fleet commander felt ridiculous for the stupidity and ignorance of the natives.

"All attacks!"

The fleet commander gave the order to attack.

He wanted to tear that broken ship into pieces and let those natives know what true despair was.

Of course, that ship is not completely useless, at least its attack power is still good.

But it definitely can't withstand the firepower of an entire fleet!
The fleet commander was undoubtedly cautious. He immediately ordered the fleet to open fire at full force regardless of the cost.

Shhhhhh.

The fleet's giant artillery shells, lances, torpedoes and other weapons rained down on the enemy ships like crazy.

Such an attack would be enough to flood an entire city.

The fleet commander watched all this with pride.

It must have been very difficult for those poor natives to build this ship.

They may have accumulated resources for hundreds of years to put together such a ship.

This makes them arrogant.

Unfortunately, it only took him a few minutes to destroy such a ship. He couldn't wait to see this patchwork ship turned into ashes and trample the natives' little hope under his feet.

However, the next moment, the fleet commander's expression froze.

He pointed ahead and screamed:

"What the hell is that?"

I saw the enemy ships in the distance suddenly light up, and circles of energy shields spread rapidly like ripples.

And each circle is bigger and more dazzling than the previous one.

It's like being surrounded by several big bubbles.

The adjutant was also shocked. He swallowed his saliva:

"Sir, if I am not mistaken, it should be a void shield..."

"I know!"

The fleet commander was angry:
"But why does it have five layers of void shield?!"

Most ships only have one layer of void shield.

Even some extremely luxurious and wealthy top-level defense ships only have three layers of void shields.

Moreover, only super-large ships or fortresses have the energy to support multiple void shield arrays.

How could a warship in front of us, which is only eight kilometers long, be equipped with multiple void shield arrays?
And it’s an unheard-of fifth floor!
The fleet commander felt a deep sense of uneasiness.

But he still didn't believe it:
"That five-layer void shield is definitely just for show. How could the natives have such terrible technology?"

bang——

The fleet's attack hit the enemy ship's outer void shield.

Those attacks that were powerful enough to destroy the city only left tiny ripples on the outer layer of the void shield.

Then there was another round of attacks.

It was still blocked by the void shield, and the color of the shield didn't even change much.

The fleet's continuous rounds of salvos were almost like scraping.

"This... is impossible. How can its void shield have such strong defensive power!"

The fleet commander was stunned. The scene before him was unbelievable.

His fleet opened fire at full force, but was unable to break even the enemy ship's outermost shield.

How is this played?
The other commanders of the fleet were equally shocked, and the attack came to a standstill for a while.

The fleet commander looked at the enemy ships and fell into deep suspicion.

Soon he noticed something strange.

The enemy ship remained there motionless.

Apart from the initial attack, it did not seem to have any counterattack behavior.

Could it be that because the multiple void shield arrays consume too much energy, they have no extra energy to attack?
The fleet commander's dead heart came back to life.

The natives found the ancient technology from somewhere, but didn't know how to use it.

He looked greedily at the enemy ship.

As long as it can't fight back, he can slowly deplete the energy of the Void Shield and then capture it.

All those ancient technologies will be his!
When the fleet commander was about to order the attack to continue.

Inside the bridge of the Dream, everyone was wondering.

Why didn't the enemy fleet attack?

They also want to continue testing the pressure resistance of the multiple void shield array.

Kaul was a little impatient:
"Hey, hey, hey, okay, we've almost finished collecting data, let's quickly test the strength of the weapons."

He excitedly ran to the weapons control console and gestured:

"Quick, quick, activate the Nova Cannon and blast them!"

He had long wanted to test the actual combat capability of that precious Holy Nova main gun.

After receiving the order, the crew took action, operating the consoles skillfully.

"Your speed is not good enough, you need more training!"

Kaul was dissatisfied with the crew's operating speed and took over the operating console directly.

Several robotic arms quickly pulled down rows of rods, and then pushed the valves hard, increasing the power of the Nova Cannon to its full potential.

He really wanted to know if the Nova main gun at full power could take out a fleet.

hum~
The Nova's main gun came into operation, drawing energy hungrily.

The huge main gun muzzle at the front of the Dream lit up with dazzling light, condensing into a highly unstable, entangled plasma group, which then expanded rapidly.

The huge and shining group of chaotic ions, with a diameter of one or two kilometers, seemed to be able to destroy everything!
Inside the bridge, the fleet commander widened his eyes and looked at the horrific scene in front of him with horror.

What a terrifying and indescribable power this is!

Fear surged into his heart like a tide and instantly spread throughout his body, making his legs weak.

At this moment, the shadow of death loomed over everyone in the fleet.

The fleet commander tried his best to control his vocal cords which were out of control due to extreme fear, and roared with difficulty:
"Quick...run away!"
