Spore Story

Chapter 652 The battle has just begun

==========
When the countdown was 00:03:00, Chi Yu suddenly noticed that something had changed.

What exactly changed, he couldn't detect it with his peak ghost level strength, but at least it made him wake up from that contradictory emotion.

Immediately, he realized his behavior, wasted precious study time and fell into self-blame, and stood up from the chair with a whiz under the call of the energy body.

"Attention all departments! The enemy is about to arrive, prepare for battle!"

This may be just an illusion, or it may be a perception from oneself, but who knows, after all, there is only so little time, and it is not bad to prepare early.

But obviously it was a bit late.

Before he finished speaking, Chi Yu felt the turret shake violently, his body became unsteady and he fell to the ground, his head hit the corner of the wall hard, staring at him.

At the same time, brief chaos erupted in the command room of the floating world.

The screen that was still monitoring all the soldiers disappeared in an instant.Immediately afterwards, there were various reports of attacks in theaters that suddenly came to mind outside.

Then, the voice prompt from the creator of the illusion sounded: "According to the elder's order, after the start of the battle, except for the person who controls the world, all non-real world technologies will be canceled to ensure the authenticity of the exercise."

"Isn't there still 3 minutes left!" A staff officer who hadn't reacted asked this question, and then the voice of the empty elder, which Noto copied directly, sounded: "There is no saying that the enemy arrives on time in the real battlefield. This is war!"

"..."

The command room, which fell into silence, returned to the noise within 3 seconds. Almost instantly, all the commanders began to rush to the corresponding positions according to their assigned command positions.

In fact, this should be the job of the creator of the illusion, but at this time, it seems that the creator is indifferent to it.Afterwards, the producer replied: This is to test the ability of members of various departments to respond to attacks. After all, in addition to 200 simulators, there are thousands of soldiers involved.

Back then, the entire floating island control center was filled with horrific alarms.

Enemy attack!

"Where is the enemy!"

At this time, in the chaotic No. 3 battery command room, Chi Yu was finally woken up by the adjutant. Chi Yu, whose head was wrapped like an ass, was not in the mood to sit on the command seat. Instead, he supported the operating platform with both hands and looked around. The various staff officers in the command room kept revising the battlefield data, and their heads turned rapidly with the changes in these data.

And in the surrounding traffic channels, traffic from various places can be heard from time to time. Through the porthole, you can even see some plasma balls that are not aimed at Fort No. 3. The beautiful plasma color makes Chi Yu give birth to a kind of "this kind of Beautiful things shouldn't be controlled by ugly bugs at all' thoughts.

"Report! One 150mm assault gun on the right is damaged."

"Report! 012 and 017 floating turrets have fallen."

"Report! Enemy found..."

"Where is it!" Chi Yu hurried to the porthole and asked the reporting soldier to point out the direction.

"The top of the surface mountain in the northwest, the left hemisphere area of ​​the second quadrant of this fort."

"what!"

Quickly ran to the porthole, disregarding the adjutant's safety reminder, Chi Yu quickly found the enemy's position through the binoculars in the porthole of the main control room located high above.

But what makes people angry is that the enemy is actually under the floating island in the territory.

How did they get there?

"Damn it, what does the early warning guy eat? The enemy has made holes from the ground to the bottom of his feet!"

After kicking the wall heavily, Chi Yu turned to look at the staff officers on the console.Although I didn't pay much attention to what the energy body explained before, I at least remembered it.But at this time, the situation is urgent, and I think about some things I need, but I can't think of them.

Sure enough, you can't be serious.

Fortunately, he still remembered the phrase 'listen to the opinions of the staff before making decisions'.

"Commander, we unanimously suggest not to pay attention to the ground enemies. The opponents are likely to attract our attention. And our real enemy should come from the sky. After all, the floating island belongs to the territory of the sky."

"Good inference, so what's the result?"

"Raise to 1 meters with all your strength, and pay attention to air defense at the same time!"

"That's good." Although he still had some doubts about not caring about the ground, Chi Yu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly turned his head and issued an order: "Launch with all your strength and reach an altitude of 1 meters, and report our decision to the floating island control center at the same time! Arrange for repairs to the damaged area immediately."

The magnetic field engine around the huge No. 3 turret began to produce shiny light blue lines, and the whole body slowly raised its height.At the same time, the assault fleet above the floating island quickly flew away from the floating island to attack the Zerg on the ground.

Due to the mobile nature of the floating island, no troops are deployed on the ground. If troops are to be sent to the ground, fleet transport is required.

But the current situation is that it is impossible for the decision makers of the floating island to deploy limited troops to the dangerous surface.

At this time, surrounded by more and more insects on the ground, dozens of giant insects that shoot plasma balls are under the protection of the same kind of desperately (really using their lives as cannonballs), and continuously fire towards the fort in the sky. Bright blue plasma ball.

The slow-moving floating turret was beaten up and down.

Obviously, the bugs on the ground know that the power of the plasma ball alone cannot destroy the giant floating island with a diameter of more than ten kilometers; and at its speed, it cannot hit the magnetic battleship with good maneuverability, so they put the first target on the ground. Here it is, in their eyes, on the floating fort that is stupid and slow.

Under the continuous bombardment of plasma balls, the turrets below the horizontal line among the 5 floating turrets were almost completely destroyed.Even the armor plates that rely on the direct fusion connection method still continue to fall under such impact.

At this moment, an embarrassing and speechless scene appeared.

Seeing that a plasma cannonball was about to hit him, an assault ship evaded urgently, passing the plasma ball dangerously.

However, just as it breathed a sigh of relief, the plasma ball hit the floating turret directly above him, the armor plate at the bottom of the turret fell off, and hit the unprepared hull of the assault ship straight.

At this time, the unlucky assault ship was panting heavily, while flying unsteadily towards the air port of the floating island.I don't know whether to say good luck or bad luck, but the assault ship was not attacked until it entered the airport.

Attack time 00:21:00.

At the bottom of the No. 3 floating turret, an observing soldier looked at the ground through the tempered glass. At this moment, a strong light blue flash erupted in front of his eyes.

"Damn it! My eyes!" Although he roared like this, the first moment he regained his vision, he looked around through the protruding bottom observation part, and couldn't help taking a breath.

Grabbing the communicator on the side, his voice was transmitted to the command room through the communication line on the island: "Report! The situation at the bottom is critical. When it was hit just now, three more 150mm assault guns were lost! At the same time, cracks appeared in many observation ports!"

"What! Observation room, where are you..."

"Not good, a plasma ball hits me, I..."

Boom!

After another burst of violent shaking, the command room fell into silence. Although it had been hit several times before, it was obvious that this time was the most intuitive loss of soldiers faced by everyone.

"Damn! Going on like this is not an option." Faced with this loss, Chi Yu could no longer be as calm as the staff said: "If we don't do something else, before these bugs are wiped out by the assault fleet, we will probably die." It has been shot down!"

The command room was silent again, and the staff officers who heard Chi Yu's roar immediately rushed to the console, looked at the data on it, combined with the damage situation of the fort that had been continuously compiled before, and frowned.

"Commander, it is indeed our negligence. Now, we suggest to immediately suppress the enemy on the ground with artillery fire. Although it may not be able to destroy the enemy, the intensive artillery fire at least has a probability of detonating during the flight of the plasma ball!"

"Just do it like this! Even if you miss, I can at least make things difficult for these bastards before I die!"

命令下达，3号炮台底部仅剩的4们150mm跑，以及两侧的75mm悬浮炮塔和255mm城防炮开始转动炮口。

But at the next moment, Chi Yu's mind suddenly remembered the cupped assault ship that was hit by the armor plate that fell from the floating turret.

(If the floating turret uses artillery fire to counterattack, there is no guarantee that it will not accidentally injure teammates. What should I do?)

"Get me the Commander of the Assault Fleet!" The battlefield communication network connects the commanders of each unit. Even in reality, this kind of precise network communication has already been achieved under the development of mental technology and electromagnetic communication technology. It has been popularized, so it is quite easy for everyone present to use it.

"Chi Yu, what's the matter?" There was no nonsense, and Liu Yuan, who was opposite, knew the person to communicate with, and asked directly.

"The floating turret needs to counterattack the ground!" Chi Yu didn't talk nonsense.

"This... no problem, I will coordinate the assault fleet to avoid the attack line of the floating turret, please pay attention."

"That's good." Chi Yu, who was about to end the communication, suddenly asked out of nowhere: "By the way, is the assault ship hit by the armor plate okay?"

"..." There was a silence on the other side.

Just when he thought Liu Yuan had disconnected the link, the answer from the other side came again: "That unlucky guy is me, damn it, I almost split my bridge."

"Ah, are you okay?" Sweating profusely.

"No, fortunately it's not far away, the impact force is not big, and because it is in the air, the assault ship instantly dropped 50 meters to get a buffer, so the entire assault ship is only partially deformed. But the interior is miserable. Three people died and two were injured. More than a dozen are still lying in the floating island hospital."

"Where's your assault ship? I saw you return to the airport before, how is it now, where is the commander?"

"It's just that the battleship can't be used, but I can also coordinate the overall situation on the floating island, so there is no problem. And through this situation, I also reported to the higher-ups, and pay attention to the protection of the commander in this kind of battle."

"That's good, I'll be in trouble later."

"Nothing, watch out for artillery fire."

"Yes." With a face full of resignation and turning off the communication, Chi Yu turned to look at the other floating forts in the sky.

The battle now has just begun.
