Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

The defeat was like a landslide.

The moment Levi called for retreat, the remaining 70 Proxima spacecraft began to turn around and flee towards Proxima b.

Zhao Zijie looked at the holographic projection in front of him excitedly.

In the picture, the scene of the Proxima fleet's defeat under the metal storm was clearly visible.

He clenched his fists tightly!

The first battle was a victory!

As the first direct interstellar war of human civilization, this victory was undoubtedly extremely inspiring!

When he found that the alien spacecraft had signs of escaping the battlefield, a ruthless look suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Come as you want, leave as you want, where in the world is such a cheap thing? !

‘First Fleet, apply for pursuit! ’

He quickly submitted an application to the fleet commander-in-chief-Lv Yongchang.

…

Looking at the pursuit request from Zhao Zijie in front of him, Lv Yongchang fell into deep thought.

Should I chase or not?

As the old saying goes, don’t chase a desperate enemy.

But the current situation seems to be a little different.

The Proxima fleet's combat effectiveness is far beyond his imagination!

Before the direct war started, he had done countless simulations in his mind.

But he never expected that the fleet sent by Proxima could not even survive the first round of electromagnetic cannon attacks!

Looking at the extremely scattered formation, a bold guess gradually emerged in Lu Yongchang's mind.

This Proxima civilization, wouldn't it be a flower stand that would break at the touch?

As this thought gradually became clear, he pursed his lips hard, and his eyes gradually became fierce.

'Permitted to pursue! '

'First Fleet, Second Fleet, pursue the enemy ship together. '

The order was issued, and 120 bright spots of light appeared in the dim space in an instant!

[Forward Four]

Looking at the 120 [Golden Crow] battleships that broke away from the team and flew towards Proxima b, Lu Yongchang slightly relaxed his frown.

This pursuit is mainly to see the trump card of Proxima civilization.

If the other side is really as he thought, a flower stand that will break at the touch...

Then it is estimated that it will not be long before the first interstellar war of human civilization can be successfully concluded!

...

"Request for support!"

"Request for support!!"

The underground city of Proxima b and the Central Academy of Sciences echoed Levi's cry for help.

Augustus was dazed with an ugly look.

Although these fifty small spaceships are nothing to them, the one-sided situation is still unacceptable to him!

In Augustus's view, the main reason for the disastrous defeat is actually human factors.

Thinking of this, Augustus cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, I knew these inferior races are unreliable!"

But things have already happened, and now we can only think about how to make up for it.

"They are chasing us!" Levi's voice in the communication equipment became more and more panicked, "We need support!"

Augus' eyes suddenly lit up.

He was still struggling with how to deal with it, and a great plan suddenly emerged in his thinking organ!

He walked quickly to the communication device and pressed the communication button.

"Levi, lead them to the vicinity of the mother planet!"

"I will send someone to pick you up."

...

Looking at the Proxima fleet getting farther and farther away in the holographic projection, Zhao Zijie's eyes revealed a bit of helplessness.

For the current human beings, this is an unsolvable flaw.

While greatly increasing the size of the starship, its maneuverability has also been greatly weakened.

Compared with the [Golden Crow] battleship with a length of 1,500 meters, the Proxima spacecraft with a diameter of about 100 meters seems extremely petite.

It is precisely because of this that their acceleration performance far exceeds that of the [Golden Crow] battleship.

Fortunately, the Proxima civilization has a mother planet that cannot move freely.

As the saying goes, the monk can run away, but the temple cannot.

What's the use of running away quickly?

If you have the ability, let Proxima b run too!

Thinking of this, Zhao Zijie's mouth curled up with a hint of sarcasm.

In the dim starry sky, 120 bright spots of light slowly drove towards the target location.

No interception, no traps...

The driving process was extremely smooth, so smooth that it made people feel uneasy!

[Earth].

In the brain wave communication channel, several fleet commanders were still chatting to kill time.

Some people even started discussing how to land on Proxima b!

Zhao Zijie and Lu Yongchang frowned at the same time.

'Something is wrong!'

'First Fleet, slow down immediately!' Zhao Zijie suddenly gave an order to the First Fleet on the move.

The First Fleet, which was still 300,000 kilometers away from Proxima b, immediately began to slow down the moment the order was issued.

The two fleets that were originally moving side by side also had a gap.

[Warning! Fleet driving condition is abnormal!]

Commander of the Second Fleet, a bright red alarm suddenly jumped out in front of Brad's eyes.

'Zhao Zijie?!' Brad questioned angrily, 'What are you doing?!'

'Why did you suddenly order your fleet to slow down?! ’

Before Zhao Zijie could speak, Lv Yongchang’s order came.

‘Brad, slow down your fleet! ’

‘Keep in sync with the First Fleet. ’

‘I…’ Brad’s face was full of confusion and doubt, but facing the commander-in-chief’s order, he still honestly ordered the Second Fleet to slow down.

‘Zhao Zijie, tell me what you think.’ Lv Yongchang ignored Brad and asked Zhao Zijie, who spoke first, ‘Why did you issue a deceleration order without authorization?’

Looking at the words in front of him, Zhao Zijie's heart trembled slightly.

He knew what he had just done.

To put it more seriously, his behavior just now was no different from disobeying orders on the battlefield.

He did not dare to delay and immediately reported his guess to Lv Yongchang.

There was silence in the brain wave communication channel.

‘Well done.’

‘Remember to report first next time and communicate well with friendly forces.’

A short sentence appeared in front of everyone.

Zhao Zijie breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was in the deep sea cabin, he still felt a cold sweat on his back.

‘I have the same hunch that the Proxima civilization seems to be setting a trap for us.’

Lv Yongchang continued to express his views, ‘So far, we have not been blocked.’

‘There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. We have reason to suspect that the Proxima civilization has ambushed a large number of troops near the mother planet. ’

Hearing this, the other fleet commanders also broke out in cold sweat.

Especially the second fleet commander Brad, he looked at the holographic projection in front of him with an unpleasant expression, his eyes filled with regret and self-blame.

Lv Yongchang glanced at the holographic projection, which showed the distance between the two fleets and Proxima b.

80,000 kilometers.

Just outside their active detection range.

As if aware of Lv Yongchang's entanglement, Zhao Zijie took the initiative to make a suggestion.

'Professor Lu, I suggest using the electromagnetic gun to explore the way. '
