The Bizarre Adventure of Tartaros Fleet

While this job doesn't have to be down on the ground like a hunter to check the freshness of the poop, the enemy's reaction is much slower than that of a deer honking like a rapper [yo~yo~]-even if they don't Any reaction, a posture of "thief in the subspace is dangerous, I will never look outside", I am afraid that even if there is a frigate sticking to the side of the hull like a remora and jumping out together, there is a high probability that the Covenant will not notice .

Even so, it will not take a while to actually track it, because there is no way to make the ship in the jump space bubble stop as it wants.

How to attack 'enemies in a transition state', this is something that the Tartarus Technology Department has been studying for many years (but because the priority is very low, so the progress has not been good), the corresponding is 'failed to pass the rebound Grab the enemy, but still want to attack the enemy ship in the transition' state.The current idea is to find the opponent's transition path, use special warships that strengthen the transition speed to chase and then attack.

This type of warship is equipped with four heavy-duty jumping mines the size of a frigate, equipped with a jump force field resonance generator, which can maintain a small jump force field enough to wrap itself, separate from the mothership during the jump, and then pass Precisely calculate a tactical leap, integrate into the opponent's leap force field, and conduct close-range critical strikes on the unsuspecting warships inside.Its antimatter warhead is capable of inflicting heavy blows on battleships and even light capitals.

However, precise transitions require knowing the exact coordinates of both oneself and the opponent.It is too difficult to know these two real-time drastic changes of parameters at the same time during the transition process, even Presia, who once realized the magical bombardment of the Asra in subspace navigation, said that he could do nothing about it-this guy Locking in the subspace relies on the strong magic reaction of Asra's power furnace, which is really not available on ordinary warships, and the spiritual reaction of many civilized psychic navigators is too weak to lock at all.In the entire Consolidation Department, apart from the Protos' ship, the ZERG moving inside the Leviathan, and the Titan Tiamat in the subspace street tour mode, none of Precia's equipment can be locked.

Because of this problem, in previous experiments, the hit rate of the jump force field of the heavy jumper mine on the target ship was only [-]%.Therefore, from the perspective of cost and efficiency, it is really better to jump over this thing first, then anchor a gravitational well, and then fill it with bombs and wait for the opponent to step on it.

But now, after several failed mobile jamming battles against Covenant warships, Warscythe is sitting at a table on the bridge of the End World, drinking coffee made from boiling water from a gas stove, and talking with Several other masters in the technical department held a small meeting.

"We may really have to deal with the actual combat of space-jumping mines."

"If the accuracy can be improved, the things thrown in the past may not only be anti-matter bombs, but also a large number of marines. It's very delicious to think about it."

"It sounds too extreme..."

"If it can be realized, we will have a great advantage in dealing with some special situations. I think it is still necessary."

"Make it in the shape of Quantum 00."

"The shape is all random..."

"I have always wanted to break through this technology as soon as possible, because we still lack sufficient defense during the tactical leap. In case a hole is opened tomorrow, the Star Border Army of the Yavi people will sail over and use thunderbolts to suffocate Are we going to be beaten passively? Get it done early and feel at ease."

"Then it's decided. Set up a special research team and give us enough budget."

"Then it's decided."

But even if the budget is sufficient, this is not an OGAME world where you can tap skills and build a ship if you have enough money in one second to build a ship in the next.Therefore, the pursuit force led by Oregana drifted in the warp space chasing the Star Alliance flagship for two full weeks.

In the past, UNSC soldiers would choose to freeze when conducting long-distance super-light voyages to save their lives. During the process, the entire ship had artificial intelligence sober.However, Tartarus' warships did not have a large number of hibernation chambers, so all the Spartans were awake.It is also a rare experience for them to stay awake during the voyage that does not know how long it will take.

Spartans generally don't like the feeling of being on a spaceship, as it makes them lose the sense of control they have on the battlefield, which is uncomfortable.Aside from the time crammed into that unbearable cryogenic chamber, all they can do is wait and guess what the next mission is, which is uncomfortable - but for now, they are more than happy to enjoy this amazing journey , because they have something to do.

Exercise physical fitness in the huge training cabin in the dreadnought, the Spartan fighters compete with the soldiers of the Ghost Fox and the Hell Stalker, and shoot - in the past, they can compete with the Spartans in terms of physical ability and combat skills There are not many people there, and even the instructors have to wear power armor to train fighting skills with them, otherwise it is easy to cause training accidents, and the parachute incident that was downplayed all proves this.But now it can be said that every opponent will meet a good talent, and the two sides will win and lose each other.

It’s just that John-117 has always been puzzled. The Spartan warriors have been carefully modified, and the body that exerts this strength is generally more than two meters tall. Some strong men in the hell diver are also more than two meters tall. Not much, but the psychic level is extremely high, so the output is also high.But how did the orcs of the ghost, fox, fairy and monster team rely on their height of only 1.7 meters by 1.8 meters with ears and a weight of fifty or sixty kilograms to produce an output that exceeded the average level of hell divers?

Because it is the leader's guard, did it undergo additional special modifications? (think)

During the day, I rely on exercises and competitions to vent my energy and cultivate tacit understanding. After dinner, I take a break to play the new card game I just learned, or watch war documentaries in other worlds.They are all ready to go to the battlefield at any time-whether they jump to help the flagship of the Covenant, or continue to destroy the space station like last time, the Spartans are ready to go at any time.

No. In the early morning of the 15th day, Oregana finally got the news from the navigator that the traces of the Covenant warship leaving the different space and entering the material universe have been detected.This made her put the half portion of instant bean curd and soy milk on the table that she hadn't finished eating, and came to the bridge as quickly as possible.

[The Templars are ready, Legion Commander. 】The projection of Executive Serrandis is glowing with a faint blue light on the screen in the center of the bridge.Unlike any other race that Oregana has seen, the Protoss never seem to show signs of fatigue. They always have awe-inspiring eyes and wear majestic ritual armor, which no one has ever seen before. What does a protoss look like when it's resting and relaxing-unless meditation is also considered a rest [15 minutes and then enter the regular space. 】

"It's been a long journey." Oregana rubbed her eyes, "It's been so long after chasing her... We've already run quite a distance."

[I don't know if the Star Alliance has noticed us. 】

"We'll know right away." She picked up the communicator. "Attention all fleet, first-level battle preparation! Get the warp force field generator ready—if their purpose is the giant structure built by the Forerunner, then it must be given to it anyway." Come down. The Forerunner megastructure must not be controlled by the Covenant, understand!"

【learn! 】

The captains of the warships replied in unison.

Serrandis also nodded, and then said to a phase technician beside him:

"When we enter the material universe, we immediately turn on the invisible force field. Before launching an attack, the legion leader and I don't want to attract attention."

"clear."

In the external viewfinder, the grotesque background of the subspace was gradually covered by white light, and then darkened in an instant. The black background of the universe occupied the screen everywhere, and there were dots of stars in the pure black background.Because the invisible force field has indeed been deployed, no companions can be seen next to the ship, and only on the tactical view can we see the signal punctuation representing their existence through the real-time report of the communication system.

Nearby is a huge gaseous giant star - the moment Liu Lizi saw this thing, he subconsciously let out a small mournful cry of 'gu meow'.

Before 343 Ultimate Spark shared the information of the halo, it said that the special zones of the forerunners are placed next to the space entity with large mass, and use this large-mass entity as its gravity anchor point. For example, special zone 04 is next to the critical star.After chasing the Covenant warships, they saw a gaseous giant star as soon as they finished the transition. Everyone almost knew what they would see later.

A second later, a large circle, gray on the outside and colorful on the inside, which is suitable as a hula hoop for Nuonuo's Dumbasta mode, appeared in the field of vision.

Dark Rock sighed:

"Very good, another ring." He said to the communicator, "Send back the signal response of the ring, and ask 343 Double Spark which ring this is, and who is the leader."

"Signal response? Isn't it coordinate information?"

"The guides don't know the coordinates of the other rings. This is for safety reasons...I hope they still remember the signal characteristics and numbers."

"learn."

"Shall we connect directly?"

"Of course, since 343 can recognize the messenger of the subspace, then all guides should be able to." Dark Rock said softly, "Maybe the reputation is not as high as that of a blue plus, but at least it must be a light blue plus. It is important to us. The incoming response method is likely to be the same as 343. If we contact it first, the problem will become clear very quickly."

After thinking about it, Oregana felt that this was indeed the case.

343 Ultimate Spark found a big monster on the ship when the Fire Spirit just arrived, but because the difference was too big, he peeped around like a Yakumo Zi, until he fought with the Star Alliance and confirmed through the play style and energy reaction that it was really big The devil shows up.If he could reveal his identity from the very beginning and accurately call out the name of the guide here, then the other party would definitely have to respond.When we met for the first time, the 'real name' was an amazingly powerful weapon. It was effective against any intelligent individual, but it was especially effective against demons.

And if the guide didn't respond at all, as if shouting into the air, it would indicate a big mess.

The safety level of the containment of dangerous creatures in the ring... To be honest, it is really unbearable, and in the memory of the original Heilou, there is still a thousand years after the leak of the Flood Demon. Or, in the end, Hong Mo fought a corpse brain to come out and pit himself in a wave, and gave the corpse brain the tentacles to hang like a yo-yo, and when he was free, he would throw a set of shooting the moon with ten lightning strikes.When the Star Alliance and humans were fighting on the 05th belt, they got the body of the Prophet of Sorrow who was killed by the Master Chief, and thus obtained a lot of information from the Star Alliance and the second Prophet of Sorrow, a yo-yo.

In this way, you can play two-handed fighting... If one day you feel that human beings are really interesting and do not destroy human beings, you can also go to the earth to become a yo-yo master. (mouth mustache)

This corpse brain beast launched an attack on the City of Fraternity, which was in internal conflict, when the Star Alliance was splitting. It then prompted the Sangheili and humans to form a temporary alliance, allowing the two species to gradually learn to cooperate and trust each other in battle.

"The other party didn't respond, so we have to prepare to fight against the Gravemind."

"That's right, and it's not just the Gravemind Beast, but the entire belt—except that it can't launch the 'Destroyer Wave', it can use almost all the functions on the belt. Its teleportation ability is very strong, for safety's sake For the sake of safety, our battleship needs to keep a distance of one light second from the ring." Oregana said, "Anyway, the ring is such a big target and it doesn't move, so even if it is separated by a light second, we can use the naval gun to shoot directly. "

"learn."

At this moment, the communications soldier turned around and said to Oregana:

"Boss, there is news from the 04 ring belt." He said, "We have received the communication code, and the number of the guide is '2401 Confession tangent'."

Oregana and Dark Rock looked at each other and sighed softly.

The 2401 confession tangent is the leader of the No. 05 ring, the AI ​​who caught fish after the infection was leaked, and then changed his job to become a yo-yo.

Immediately afterwards, Liulizi also received the scanning report from the Stasius-class cruisers Kikyo, Mitsuba, and Shixu who performed the scanning mission:

"A CAS-class flagship is moored on the ring, and no one is paying attention to us." She carefully watched the scans unfolding in her mind, and reported that "except for the Covenant forces, no special biological reactions were detected. .Maybe the Flood hasn't breached containment yet?"

"impossible."

"Eh?"

"The warships of the Star Alliance have stopped on the belt! As I mentioned before, the battleships close to the belt will be warned by him, and if they don't leave, they will operate the defense system to attack. At that time, our dreadnought ship was almost shot. , it was because we saw that we were blue, so we didn’t do anything, and the Covenant warships following behind were also able to enter the ring space because of this.” Oregana raised a finger and emphasized, “There are no humans on the Covenant warships. , and there are no subspace forces, let alone forerunners and pioneers, how could they have successfully boarded a ring belt with complete functions? Since they can go up, it means that the guide has lost part or all of its functions .”

These words made the bridge fall into silence.

Oregana's analysis is so close to reality that it seems to be the only answer that can explain the current situation.The leader of this ring has basically stopped working, so the defense system has not been implemented, and the Star Alliance has a way to land carelessly.And the Gravemind who got the yo-yo must have a way to control the defense system to destroy the wobbly approaching, already crippled CAS-class battleship...

But what reason does it have to prevent the Star Alliance from landing?

The Flood is not a ZERG, an Arachi Zerg or a Tyranid Zerg. Even if they evolve into Graveminds, they can't leap themselves, and they can open wormholes with psionics, and they can't smash Buenos Aires with a stone thousands of light years away. Ellis smashed into a hole, and he also couldn't build a giant bug ship like Leviathan or Behemoth, carrying infected troops and swishing to a galaxy, and couldn't sense gravitational signals like a horned whale ship. Create a compressed space channel, and by the way, create a gravitationally chaotic natural disaster BUFF for the target galaxy, and use psionic interference to block the navigator's perception to give the entire galaxy a rebound.

The Flood Demons couldn't do any of the above tricks, and they still relied on infection and parasitism to enter the interstellar stage.At least when they just entered the interstellar stage, these evil parasites need to use the creations of other intelligent creatures, they absorb wisdom, and then use the technology they have absorbed to sail in the sea of ​​​​stars-just grabbing the guide, the gravemind is still It is impossible to use the belt to race around, because the leader himself does not have the skills and authority to use the belt to race.To soar, the Flood also need an outsider's spacecraft, which will become the ark for their star tour.

This corpse brain beast may have existed here for tens of thousands of years, presumably it will not miss this opportunity.

emmm... If you think about it that way, Gravemind is pretty good.Getting the yo-yo is equivalent to knowing the whole belt. This is not only a huge manufacturing factory, but also a huge food manufacturing base (as long as the ecological circle is maintained, animal husbandry can use endless biomass) and energy centers.The Flood Infected Body is equivalent to a nearly unlimited manpower and thinking module. There seems to be no difference in practical operation between the Gravemind Beast making a fortune on the ring belt and a dozen traversers carrying a space station and a lot of blueprints to a different world. In terms of materials and practical operations, it must be more advantageous than a group of dead houses carrying an iron wall, an industrial command ship and a few mining ships to a galaxy where the highest civilization has not yet popularized iron.

As a result, it is still waiting on the ring belt for a spaceship with a jump engine to arrive like Godot.

Is Gestalt Awareness The Limits Of Creativity?Or is it true that the second-developed Gravemind is far inferior to the ancient swarm commanded by the primordia?

wrong……

All of a sudden, Oregana felt a flash of lightning on her forehead, as if Topless was going to transfer the entire planetary space.

When I feel that the enemy is about to explode, there is probably something wrong.It is already surprising that such a good enemy of the Star Alliance can be encountered once. It is impossible for the Flood Demon, who beat the ancient humans and the forerunners to cry, to be so bad... I just wanted to sneer at ease Immediately calming down, Oregana rubbed her cheeks vigorously, then put her hands on Liu Lizi's ears and entered the thinking mode.

What the eyes see is not necessarily the truth, and it will be a big loss to draw conclusions recklessly under such circumstances that the amount of information is not enough.

"Is the Flood really only on the ring?"

"What do you mean?"

"If you were a Gravemind, wouldn't you want to try to send something to the next planet in tens of thousands of years?" Oregana touched her temple, frowned and said, "There is no jump engine. There is no jump engine, but the ability of conventional navigation is still available. Although there is no habitable planet in this galaxy, it looks fine on the surface, but as long as it has the industrial capacity of the ring, it can completely be inside the planet next to it. 'Building ecoregions... right?"

"My God... you said that..." Dark Rock clicked his tongue, his face became uneasy, he grabbed the communicator "immediately scan the surrounding planets! Immediately!"

【learn! 】

But this should not be enough... If you want to scan the core of the planet, the target may be shielded by a force field, and it does not have the strong special energy response of the dark worm. It may be very difficult to find it, and Oregana herself has no way to use it. own ability to find the flood.The Flood Demon didn't have that kind of emotional reaction, so naturally he wouldn't be detected by the Great Demon of Khorne.

She looked at the three red and white warships scanning the probe ring, and new protozoa signal points appeared on the scanning map. Up to now, not even a Flood signal has been seen on the surface of the ring. Everything looks peaceful and settled.

But the entire galaxy is already undercurrent.

The Covenant troops have already disembarked from the ship and spread out on the ring, and the investigation team entered the inside of the ring at least two hours ago-it is almost impossible to save them, anyway, the Covenant warship, especially It is the jump engine above that must be destroyed.

But... where is the location of the Gravemind Beast?

The ring itself is a containment facility. If the ghoul really wants to hide, hide in the deepest part and use various force fields to block its own signal, then hold a yo-yo and let it get resources for itself, use the yo-yo It is indeed really difficult to find the ring belt to monitor it, because the thick armor layer and the black technology force field of the forerunner are enough to shield the general life sensors, and it may be difficult to find the target by just using the probe...

If the defense system of the belt is activated, the attacks launched from the outside will be easily stopped by the shields of the 'forerunner level', and the battleship will also be attacked by the fortress guns of the 'forerunner level'.There is only one way to destroy the jump engine, and that is to try to log in and see if the Gravemind will let the subspace forces approach.

Judging from the fact that it has not yet launched an attack, this monster's ambition is obviously not just to get a leap engine from the Star Alliance, it is still eager for more things.If the Gravemind's psychological flaw and its unfamiliarity with Tartarus' fighting methods can be used, it might be possible to destroy the jump engine after landing.The ring belt lacks sufficient resistance to the attacks that occur inside. Use the warships of the Covenant Alliance or simply bring bombs in to destroy the ring belt, and then use naval guns to melt every piece of the ring belt into hot steel slag. No matter how tough the Gravemind Beast was, it couldn't continue to live.

"Call the leader of the Mida and Xiaobao Chapters, order the Blood Ravens and Japari Chapters to blockade the entire galaxy, and at the same time set up ATA-eight gates in the rear, and send them the coordinates of all the planets in this galaxy, if If there is any change in the planet, smash it directly, and then use incendiary bombs to ablate the space where the planet was originally located. The industrial ship set up a turret to resist the reinforcements that the Covenant may arrive at any time."

She looked at the huge ring and said firmly:

"No matter what tricks the Flood is playing, we must completely bury them here! This is a mission with a high probability that we will never return, so order Sparta and Hell Divers to perform defenses on the flagship that the enemy may use the ring belt Use the teleportation function to carry out the task of jumping gang combat, understand!"

"Yes!"

"Bring the marines with the guards and the Fist of Tartaros, prepare in 10 minutes! Set off immediately!"

Chapter 1056 Chapter 94: The flood spring is extremely deep, why fill it?There are nine places, why should they be buried?

When the Tindalos-type stealth landing ship passed through the top of the ring's atmosphere, it hit a layer of force field. The pilot Lore Freddy saw that the indicator light indicating the stealth system on the status panel was off, showing a helpless expression .
