Spore Story

Chapter 986 The tragedy of mocking MAX

==========
"What do you think we should do?"

"..."

Faced with the questioning of the usually reliable commander in front of him, the adjutant was completely speechless.

When the scanning controller reminded everyone that the swarm had approached 150 kilometers and was about to launch an attack on their side, they realized that now was not the time to be dazed.

"Is the jump isolation sensed?"

Commanders who didn't get a proposal from their adjutant had to turn to others.

Their squadron is only a few dozen ordinary battleships, facing the hundreds of thousands of insect swarms, a fool would rush to die, so the first thing Xigu thought of was to jump and escape.

But fortunately, I don't know if the bugs forgot or what, the jump isolation state did not appear around the airspace.

So……

"How long will it take for the jump engine to start?"

"The jump has just ended, even if it is at the jump point now, it still takes 30 meters to restart the jump engine (the Pumi Garcia time unit, for convenience, it will be calculated into the equivalent amount of friends' time units in the future)."

"Damn!"

"Your Excellency, we are fighting head-on. Although we have determination and quality, we are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of quantity, and it is difficult to win. And here we are waiting for the jump engine to start, and we probably don't have that chance. I think of two ways, one is to rely on The speed drags the swarm to move, and maybe we can buy time for the 20-meter tower (about 10 minutes) for us, but the surrounding space is unknown, and we have to run back here after the jump engine can be started. At that time, no one knows whether the swarm will Stay here..."

"What about the other way?"

The commander quickly rejected this path in his mind.

The uncertainty is too high, why not try to rely on the hull shield and weapons to resist the time of the 30-meter tower, but this is also full of danger.

"Didn't the Zerg fight with someone before?" This time the adjutant didn't talk nonsense: "An enemy of an enemy is a friend. Since the enemy can fight these Zergs for so long, with their combat power, they should be able to save us alone."

As for killing this group of bugs, although I really wanted to, the adjutant and the crew members knew that it was a delusion.

But those fleets that don't know what they are...

"We can't communicate at all!"

"It's not a big problem," the adjutant said confidently at this moment, "It's okay to think in another way. The other party is fighting the Zerg, and they are obviously the enemy. Regardless of whether the other party knows about our Pumi Garcia tribe... Cough, although they don't know The possibility is very low, but we only need to show our hostility to the Zerg, and then take the initiative to move closer to them, and don’t make misleading gestures, as intelligent races, they should not fail to help.”

"you sure?"

"determine."

"in this way……"

Although what the adjutant said was reasonable and the possibility was high, it was still a bit risky.Because of the unknown, no one can tell what the unknown fleet on the opposite side is thinking. The misunderstandings and tragedy caused by the cultural differences between the civilizations of the universe are not commonplace. If they meet, it will be a tragedy of the tragedy , double taboo.

Therefore, after thinking about it, the commander still chose a middle-of-the-road method.

"Insects are now far away..."

"The distance is 130 kilometers (converted into friend units (=.=)), the first wave of attack is about to arrive!"

"Activate the energy shield and use artillery fire to counterattack," after giving the order, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the light rays of the ultra-long-distance nematodes hit the energy shield without causing much trouble.

Subsequently, the commander continued to explain the situation.

"Fight with the worms first, if we can persist, then don't ask for help; if we are sure that we will not be able to persist before the swarm enters [-] kilometers, then lean in, what do you think?" Commander Xigu looked at As a staff adjutant.

"can."

The adjutant nodded, but still added: "In any case, it's best to keep sending help signals to the opposing fleet during this period."

"But the language barrier between the two parties..."

"I know."

The linkage caused by the physical ammunition hitting the shield caused the hull to shake slightly. The adjutant reached out and grabbed the deputy to stabilize his figure before explaining.

"Although there is a language barrier, we can give the opponent a sense of urgency through continuous communication and the same communication content. When the other party sees our defense status again, if they are smart enough, they can analyze it. The reality that we need aid."

"Yup!"

The commander suddenly realized: "As expected of the adjutant I selected..."

"You flatter me."

"...you think the same as me."

"..."

■

"very noisy!"

It is indeed a cultural difference.

The Pumi Garcias themselves seem to be very appropriate to continuously send out communication means, the purpose is to give the unknown friend fleet a sense of urgency, but they did not expect to give the friend the greatest feeling is the above two words.

The third fleet closest to here is the first to be among them.

The electromagnetic radio communication equipment responded almost continuously, so that the bridge correspondents couldn't help but want to ask the captain to send a message to the other party.And because most of the friends' space fleet members are energy bodies, it is convenient to have a certain degree of safety after abandoning the ship. Therefore, although there is no real harm to the electromagnetic disturbances introduced into the ship, it makes people feel irritated.

Fortunately, Admiral Xu Yuan was able to understand the opponent's mind, and he would not misunderstand that the opponent was launching an electromagnetic attack and launched a counterattack.

But understanding is understanding, it's another matter if you can bear it or not.

Therefore, after the Zerg heard the same communication no less than 130 times in just a few minutes from 110 kilometers to [-] kilometers away from the other party, he also decisively ordered to switch all communication modes to the spiritual power network communication that needs node support .

Then, Pumi Garcia Fleet Commander messed up.

"The other party turned off the communication!"

"what happened?"

"No, I don't know." No matter how you look at it, these fleet styles are not any known by Pumi Garcia. Without knowing the other party's situation, who knows why the other party shut down the communication.

Obviously, they didn't think about it at all, and this was for the simplest reason that their continuous sending of messages was annoying.

Faced with such a situation, the commander decisively... turned to look at the adjutant.

"..."

"What about the situation of the opposing fleet?" The adjutant also turned his head decisively, looking at the scanning controller.

"The opponent's fleet is still in two batches, the one closest to ours has a squadron size similar to ours, and the other batch seems to be following the swarm, reaching the size of a main fleet... Wait, this is..."

The scan controller suddenly stopped, as if he had discovered something.

For a moment, the entire bridge fell silent.

After a while, the opponent raised his head: "It's the mecha, and there are many small aircraft, they are attacking the flanks of the swarm!"

"Mecha?"

This thing is not common in the universe, because there are very few races that can drive or dare to drive this kind of weapon to participate in the battle in the space war. Generally, it requires individual strength, brain thinking level and sub-brain technology to reach a certain level.

Although this restriction does not exist for most mid-to-high-level cosmic civilizations of Pumi Garcia's level, mid-to-high civilizations generally start from the initial stage, and the army model has been determined, and no one will make rash changes.

Therefore, in cosmic communication, it is also feasible to judge a race from the opponent's fleet model.

But right now, according to the scan controller's report, the opponent's fleet has both small aircraft and mechs, as well as multi-turret warships... This mixed mode is obviously very special.

"What type of civilization's fleet style is this?"

Everyone was also a little suspicious for a while.

At this time, the staff officer on the side who really belonged to the staff, but was often used or ignored by the commander as a maid, finally found an opportunity to speak: "There is another possibility that this race is a civilized race whose fleet model has not yet been finalized. It is slightly stronger, but it is not suitable for space warfare."

"But these people fought against the Zerg... Yes, it is indeed possible."

The commander suddenly realized.

Everyone had seen the opponent with hundreds of warships, tens of thousands of small aircraft and mechas fighting with nearly a million insect swarms, subconsciously thinking that the opponent was a very powerful cosmic civilization.

But thinking about it now, there seems to be a lot of doubts in it.

First of all, the composition of the opponent's fleet is very simple and messy;

Secondly, the other party still uses simple radio communication;

In addition, this star field does not seem to have much level of development during the scan;
And the most important thing is that these swarms have been attacking our own fleet for more than ten minutes now. Although the distance is a bit far, they have not caused substantial damage to the fleet so far, which shows that the strength displayed by this swarm does not seem to be very high .

"Ahaha, that's why I asked to test it out and see, now I find that this group of Zerg is nothing more than a strong outsider!"

"..." The bridge members were speechless.

But at this moment, the entire mothership suddenly shook violently.

Then, the late reminder came from the fire early warning officer who was attracted by the commander: "A large wave of artillery fire is approaching... Ah, it has come."

It is completely different from the powerlessness of the long-distance light weapons and inertial weapons of the swarm before the energy shield. When the distance is close to [-] kilometers, the new wave of attacks issued by the swarm seems to have changed. The explosion caused by this wave of attacks unexpectedly Let the huge mothership vibrate greatly.

Such a scene made the face of the commander who had just laughed at the other party's strong but incompetent face suddenly flushed.

But before the other party issued a question or order, as the distance approached, continuous attacks began to occur in the small squadron.When Commander Xigu finally stood firm with the support of his adjutants and staff officers, the distance of the swarm had reached eighty kilometers.

At this moment, the light of rumors flashed from the left side of the porthole.

The next moment, the voice of the captain of the mothership came to everyone's mouths: "The Gallente sank! The Caldari was seriously injured!"

"Turn around quickly, stop the output of energy artillery fire, charge all capacitors into the shield, and immediately move closer to the unknown fleet!"

After a short silence, Xigu decisively made the most correct choice in the later opinion.

The entire fleet reacted immediately after the order was issued, led by the mothership whose shield seemed a little precarious but actually still had enough power, and blocked most of the artillery fire. Hide into the side of the mothership facing away from the Zerg at high speed, and with the mothership approaching the third fleet of friends in the distance.

At this time, the main force of the Pengzu, the Zerg and the Pumi Garcia fleet happened to be in a straight line, with a distance of about [-] kilometers from each other, and [-] kilometers away from the line was the unknown third space fleet of the Pengzu.

However, the Zerg completely ignored the friend clan fleet and even the mecha and drone swarms that were close at hand and were still at war with it a moment ago, and vented all their artillery fire on the Pumi Garcia fleet.

"What a high level of taunting it takes."
