Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

The next moment.

A shrill sound coming from the speakers drew everyone's attention.

Lu Yongchang turned his head and frowned as he looked at the large stick insect in the holographic image, which was half-breathing and whose mouthparts were constantly squirming.

Zero also synchronizes the translation content at the bottom of the hologram, just like subtitles.

Looking at the gradually perfected "subtitles", the originally relaxed expressions on Lu Yongchang's and everyone else's faces gradually became serious.

"...a despicable, cunning, and vicious human civilization."

“This is the technology and knowledge the Lord has given us!”

"It will never fall into the hands of you heretics!"

"..."

Perhaps due to the influence of gamma rays, the physical condition of this large stick insect has deteriorated again, with dark green blood and internal organ fragments pouring out of its mouthparts uncontrollably.

But even so, the fanatical gleam in its eyes still hasn't faded at all.

Even, against the backdrop of the surrounding environment, it looks even crazier!

Its mouthparts kept moving, but the sounds it made gradually became weak and indistinct.

The translation given by Zero also became choppy.

"Destroy...clear..."

Although only a few simple words were translated, these words directly rang the alarm bell in everyone's mind!

At the same time, in the holographic projection, the large stick insect raised its two pairs of forelimbs with difficulty and pressed four buttons on the console at the same time.

"etc!"

"you……"

Lu Yongchang's face changed drastically, and just as he was about to speak, the communication screen quietly disappeared, leaving only a few bright red characters displayed in the holographic projection with a light blue background.

[The connection has been interrupted]

Silence fell in the command center.

"broken……"

Fang Xu's murmur came from the side.

Lu Yongchang stared gloomily at the light blue, blank holographic projection in front of him.

"Professor, the detector has observed an abnormal explosion."

Electronic synthesizer sounds.

At the same time, the holographic projection screen automatically switched, and a small Bosa battleship appeared in front of everyone.

Through the high-definition camera equipped with the detector, everyone in the command center can clearly see the explosions of fire on the surface of the battleship.

It can be seen with the naked eye that most of the explosions are concentrated at the rear of the battleship.

Among them, the explosion in the engine area was the most violent!

Lu Yongchang frowned slightly and asked softly: "What's the situation of the other small battleships?"

The holographic projection screen began to switch rapidly, and at the same time, Zero's electronic synthesized sound sounded again.

"So far, all Bossa battleships that have been attacked by gamma ray cluster cannons have experienced abnormal explosions."

Looking at the flashing explosion scenes on the screen, Lu Yongchang was silent for a long time and sighed with relief.

"The plan failed."

"We may not be able to get anything out of their starships."

"Judging from the distribution of explosions, the Botha civilization may have been prepared for this situation."

"These explosions did not even miss the weapons and equipment equipped on the battleship."

He shook his head helplessly: "I didn't expect that these stick insects, as level five civilizations, would be brainwashed to this extent..."

"Cleaner civilization is really..."

Lu Yongchang's eyes flashed with deep fear and vigilance.

He doesn’t think that a civilization that cultivates this kind of subsidiary civilization will be an easy civilization to get along with!

"etc."

Fang Xu suddenly interrupted Lu Yongchang's words: "Yongchang, they don't seem to have destroyed the antimatter storage device."

Hearing this, Lu Yongchang was stunned, and then quickly looked up at the holographic image again.

In the picture, the explosion flames on the surface of the small battleship have slowly dissipated.

The surface of the ellipsoidal battleship was full of pits, like a carrot with holes dug out on its surface. It was particularly ugly.

However, there was no hint of disgust in Lu Yongchang's eyes!

Under the self-destruction program, these warships actually retained their basic appearance!

This means that the explosion only destroyed various weapons and equipment, and did not affect the antimatter storage area of ​​the battleship!

Because, let alone the Bosa small battleship, even the antimatter equipped in the [Golden Crow] battleship is enough to blow the entire [Golden Crow] battleship into pieces!

He didn't believe that a battleship with a fifth-level civilization capable of warp navigation would contain less antimatter than a human [Golden Crow] battleship!

Although it is unclear why these Bosa small battleships chose to retain antimatter, Lu Yongchang will definitely not let go of this golden opportunity!

"Zhao Zijie, notify the fleet to transport these scrapped small warships back as much as possible!"

Lu Yongchang pondered for a moment, then spoke again and added: "Be careful not to let the other party discover our movements."

"You can send a drone to land and try to establish a connection with the ship's computer if it's still working normally."

…

Bosa flagship.

"Commander, all small warships have implemented self-destruction procedures. The loss of our fleet has reached... 60%."

A large stick insect reported nervously: "In addition, our battleship's magnetic shield algorithm has completed preliminary changes."

Commander Botha listened to his men's report and nodded gloomily: "They are just small warships and will have little impact on the battle situation."

"Continue to use antimatter cannons and gravity bombs to attack and break through the last line of defense as soon as possible!"

"Prepare to recover the antimatter storage unit in the small battleship."

...

On the battlefield.

Along with the explosion of the small battleship's self-destruction program, the number of powerful antimatter cannons and gravity bombs increased significantly in an instant.

The [Golden Crow] battleship, which originally had a slight advantage, could only passively retreat in the face of such an offensive.

It seems that human civilization is about to fall behind in this war.

But when the Botha fleet did not notice, some of the ship-borne drones took advantage of the explosion and broke away from the main force, shut down the surrounding plasma shields, and flew towards the small Botha battleships that stayed in place!

ps: The problem was found, I took the antipyretic and cold medicine together...

Now that I have stopped taking the antipyretic, the vomiting and diarrhea have basically stopped, but my body is so weak that I may need to rest for two days before I can resume normal updates.

Brothers, don't take medicine indiscriminately, I'm already cracked...
