Xiling Empire

What kind of weapons do people usually think of? Or, what should be the definition of a weapon?

Maybe its form can be varied, the light and shadow effects can be colorful and colorful, and the names and usages can be different, but I think basically all conventional weapons are based on at least one point: attacking the target, having damage or The deterrent effect can cause damage or trauma to the structure or function of the target or any intact aspect, and use various killing methods to destroy the normal state of the target-I think weapons should basically be this kind of thing-but it is clear The weaponry that Bella Villa showed me for this thing called the glow ring is another thing entirely.

A large black and red fallen apostle ship appeared around the glow ring. After comparing the proportions, I found that the size of the glow ring was only less than half of the eternal class, much smaller than what I expected. In the demonstration of the golden color After the basic size of the halo, the glow ring began to recharge and showed its most basic means of attack-well, to be honest, although the effect is gorgeous, but looks like a mighty power, that golden halo can generate a lot of giants around it. The magical array uses a dense barrage to launch attacks. The power of those barrage is probably the same as that of the main guns of small and medium-sized warships. It is somewhat ineffective against super motherships such as the eternal class. During the demonstration, it was completely in opposition Saturated bombardment of an enemy ship for more than ten minutes without resisting allowed the latter's shield to extinguish-it is impossible to successfully bombard a unit in this way on a real battlefield and achieve the same firepower output I am afraid that it will take five to six "glow rings" to defeat the shield of an eternal mothership in a short enough time.

But Bellavira told me that the Glow Circle is a super battleship of the same level as the Eternal Mothership in the Imperial Order.

Just when I was a little puzzled about this, a sudden change occurred in the holographic projection: the moment the shield of the target went out, the originally empty area inside the glow ring suddenly produced a layer of mirror-like things, the shield The image of the defeated enemy ship was clearly reflected in the mirror. Although I couldn't understand what was going on, I instinctively felt that this was the moment when the halo really started to attack. But as I continued to look at it, I found a bit of an inconsistency-probably to make it clearer. Bella Vera arranged the black ships that represented the enemy densely, but only one enemy ship appeared in the mirror in the center of the glow ring. No surrounding ships were visible, and the reflection in the mirror was not. It is too consistent with the perspective rules-it does not appear to shrink due to the distance between the solid and the mirror surface, which is not plausible from a perspective perspective. So I started to guess, maybe it's not a mirror, but a huge display? Shows what it locks in on a 100% scale? —Well, this guess is a bit unreliable.

"The ordinary 'main gun' of the Glow Ring is very weak. It is not comparable to the main gun on the technology side like Xinghe, but it is extremely powerful in the end-it is called the horror mirror system," Bellavi Pulled to us-mainly explained to me the glow ring fighting method, "This thing is very difficult to defend, but there are restrictions. The target it destroys at once cannot exceed its annihilation radius. Well, the annihilation radius is what you see That mirror-like area, beyond which the target cannot be completely locked, only a part of it can be locked. This is a weapon that produces absolute damage to a limited target, and is not suitable for large and bloated things. But This locking device can be used flexibly. I don't know if you find it. It looks like a mirror? During the locking process, it really works as a mirror, as long as it is completely reflected in the mirror area at 100%. Things can be locked, so as long as the target has a cross-section smaller than the annihilation radius of the glow ring, it cannot escape. Now, the glow circle The ring's second weapon system began to attack. "

The golden halo in the holographic projection reached the charging limit. The "mirror area" inside it suddenly flickered, and then the image of the enemy ship reflected in the mirror began to shrink rapidly. Within a few seconds, the size of that image was Shrinking from dozens of kilometers to ... Anyway, looking at the holographic projection, there is only a small light spot with a large rice grain. If not, there is an arrow next to it. I can't even find it with the naked eye. While the image in the mirror is shrinking, the eternal class enemy ship locked by the glow ring is also shrinking rapidly. They disappeared in no time. A moment later, a small, faint spark like a firefly suddenly burst out where the black battleship disappeared.

"The absolute power of the horror mirroring system," Bellavira smiled slightly. "Of course, this system has weaknesses, and its attacks will be neutralized by psionic shields or shields of the same level, because the Holy Light and Phantom power is equivalent in information priority, and neither party can completely annihilate or interfere with the other in the main material plane. Therefore, the horror mirroring system cannot lock the phantom or the shield of the same level. The target. Therefore, the glow ring combat method needs to be divided into two phases: the first phase is to use its own conventional weapons and friendly firepower to continuously weaken the target shield, the moment the enemy shield disappears, the target will be Reflected in the mirror area. At the beginning of the second stage, the glow ring will reverse the dividing line between the mirror and reality. We know that under normal circumstances, when you look into the mirror, you take the initiative to take the initiative, and then the image in the mirror changes. , But once reflected by the glow ring, the relationship will be reversed-the horror mirroring system will turn your real-world entity into a phantom in the mirror, and then it Its 'mirror' severe contraction, is reflected off the target will be unconditionally crushed. "

I:"……"

"It's too informative?" Bellevue stretched his hand and dangled in front of my eyes. "Return to your thoughts, isn't it so exaggerated?"

"What the **** ... what kind of weapon is this? Law level? Concept level?" I pointed at the holographic projection of the glow ring. "Isn't this killing power too unsolvable?"

"In fact, it's not as exaggerated as you think," Bellavira shrugged. "It's just that most of the mysteries do not work in accordance with the general world view, so they look incredible. The horror mirroring system is strictly speaking It is only a mathematical rate modification device. Its attack effect is limited to the annihilation radius, so it is not a law weapon. Its locking and starting process will be interfered by external factors, so it is not a conceptual weapon. In terms of power, in fact, this weapon The Xinghe gun is a class. The high concentration psionic torrent used by the latter has an effect in all dimensions. Units without shields will also be unconditionally destroyed by psionic attacks. Therefore, Xinghe is more than just a team The energy cannon is so simple-all the medium to large empire weapons in the empire are not purely physical killing. That's the thing to understand. However, when facing an empire-class battleship, there is a horror mirror compared to the main gun of the Galaxy. The advantage is that after the enemy ship's shield is broken, it faces the Galaxy Cannon, which relies on the charged armor and the inner phantom ring. We can continue to fight, mirroring the face of terror. As long as the enemy shell Psi Shield no longer intact, the structure of the ship is it's all over, plenty of quiet inside irradiation can not stop. "

Bellavira explained in detail how the mirroring of terror works. Whether it can illuminate the target depends only on two points. The first is naturally that the opponent must be smaller than its annihilation radius. The locking system of the horror mirror is operated using the "information mapping" principle. It must reproduce the target 100%. The target's outer shield is required to be flawed. This flaw can be of short duration. Even if it only flashes for a few seconds, it is enough to mirror the system to establish a mapping. Afterwards, even if the enemy ships recharge their shields, they will lose their skills, because in the current world, the information mapping relationship has been established and the bullets have flew into their heads. At this time, it is too late to wear a helmet.

As for how this thing uses a mirror to destroy the real-world entity, Sandora saw that it was difficult for me to understand, and made a very vivid metaphor: "You should always be familiar with shortcuts?"

"The one on the computer? Of course I know." I nodded.

"You can control the program entity through shortcuts." Sandora continued. "The horror mirror is to create a shortcut to the target. We know that the essence of the world is a collection of information. Everything that enters the barrier of the world must be in the ' The world's large memory finds a place for our information. We can think of it as a folder, and the complete psionic shadowing can take advantage of advanced permissions-which is the priority of the psionic energy in the ladder of all things- Hide the folder path, the horror mirroring system is to find out where the target file is. Then ... create a shortcut for uninstallation. "

I finally understood thoroughly this time.

"Very powerful stuff ... I still think it's more high-tech than Xinghe ... well. High magic," I looked at the golden halo on the holographic projection in wonder. "But I'm afraid that the independent combat capability of this thing is scum?"

"There is no way, except for the real law weapons and conceptual weapons, it is difficult to circumvent the world's various corrections by speculative methods. Even if the target has a complete psionic shield, even that shield No matter how low the intensity is, the horror mirroring system cannot be activated, "Bella Villah reluctantly spreads his hand," and it is limited to its limited energy carrying capacity, and its conventional firepower is not strong. Therefore, when facing a cluster of eternal class, the glow circle The ring must be supported by a large number of support warships to prevent it from being miserable: its protection is only about half of the eternal level. But as long as a certain number of glow rings exist in our fleet, it will form an unprecedented huge for the enemy. You can tell at a glance that such an uncertainty will take effect, and how a sniper turret can kill the enemy's large warships-they will even kill them in order to prevent them from being shot by the mirror And sacrificing firepower and mechanical power to enhance the shield strength of a single ship-the joint shield is incapable of facing the glow ring, because the joint shield It is not a complete shield. A large number of different spacecraft's shields are superimposed, which will generate a large number of discontinuities. Such discontinuities will not affect the protection of conventional artillery fire, but will leave opportunities for terrorist images. Ah, you have a problem?"

I pointed at the holographic projection: "Only one question, how long will it take for us to create this thing? Can it serve before the next battle with the fallen apostles?"

Bella Vera looked at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and after a moment he glanced at me: "You ca n’t take me as a festival because we have had festivals before ... how long did it take you to make your first Is the ship eternal? Speaking of eternity, I still have resentment. When I was in Azeroth, the last eternal battleship I had ... I was not hesitated to put fireworks by Huesca ... "

"That is, she doesn't put fireworks, then it's our turn to be fireworks ... don't change the subject," I just wanted to follow along, and suddenly responded, "that's not your glorious history. And then we were There is no complete material for eternity. The basic industry is not complete, so progress is slow, but now you have the information of the glow ring. "

"But I don't have basic industry," Bellavira said without any discussion. "I have searched Xinxiang, and I haven't found the surviving plastic star pond ... the star port that the mysterious department uses to build space weapons. Now even if I have the information at hand and I have to build an industrial system from scratch. You did the same thing in the past, you know how difficult it is. As for the fallen apostles ... they are always nervous. I dare not give you any guarantee. In addition, I I also give you a suggestion, don't be too eager to immediately put a large ticket of a powerful warship at the level of the glow ring into service. No matter what time, a single unsystematic thing is difficult to turn the tide, even if it is a super weapon. With this effort, you might as well expect that we can first create a variety of small and medium-sized space weapons of the mysterious department, which is in line with reasonable development rules. And most of the time, a reasonably coordinated diversified fleet is far more than a mother ship without support. The formation must be more combative. As for when the Glow Ring will serve ... I can only say that I will do my best. "

I also know that this matter can't be forced, but just seeing such a powerful thing can't immediately appear in front of my eyes, I feel a little depressed, but I believe that Belavira will not have this matter The ambiguity, so she can only rest assured that this task-her burden will be heavy.

"Anyway, it's hard for you." I still have to say something to Bella Villa. Because of these responsibilities, she did n’t have to take the initiative to bear it. Look at her current state. A broken soul can only have limited activities by being attached to her own replica. If she has been hiding in Sylvia ’s soul for this reason, In the depths, no one can say anything at all, but she took the initiative to stand up against the past, the most complex and important turning point that the new empire is currently facing. I am not a person who knows nothing about this. It's just that I can't find a suitable way to express my gratitude-except for such a sentence.

Bella Villara blinked with a smile: "This thankfulness is not a trivial matter. I will follow up."

"In other words, you have already decided to retreat from there. Be a small shopkeeper with peace of mind, and now you have pulled these burdens, will you not regret it?" Sandora looked at the ravens hatchery in the distance and said quietly.

Bella Villara's mouth slightly tilted, revealing a smile-like expression: "In the beginning, I really wanted to retreat, regardless of these messy things-because I'm really tired. But watching you so busy, I always feel that I ca n’t continue to enjoy the blessing in the shadow city you built ... maybe I have to find something to do, and my heart will be solid. Fortunately, I have only forgotten this short time, I have not forgotten My own ability, this thing can still be dealt with. At the beginning of Azeroth caused you a lot of trouble, this is also a kind of compensation. "

Having said that, Bellavira stowed the holographic projection in the air, waved her hand to her raven, and fluttered down the wind in a half sentence: "... As for retirement—waiting for the rebels to turn over Besides, I'm not yet old enough to retire. "

Because of a conversation with Bella Villa, Sandora and I suddenly came up with the idea of ​​going to Tianjie City to see it. It has been a few days since I left there, and I do n’t know if Aurelia has already sorted it out. Those messes, because they know everything about the Celestial City, Aurelia's work there is very fast, and there are many new developments reported almost every day, but I do n’t think it is better to go and see them. Good.

For example, today, Jiedu City has become one with Shadow Space, and there is no need to take the troublesome gate of the world. The process is as simple as starting from the Shadow City to Avalon, so just a moment later, we came to the city of Heaven. The core city of angels.

Everything in front of us is the same as when we left the other day ~ www.readwn.com ~ This is not a surprise. When we left, the basic buildings of Tianjie Metropolis were already in place as planned. Plans for the expansion and modification of these mega buildings. The only change in sight is that most buildings are now in operation: the beautiful runes on the surface of the buildings are sparkled by mystery under the inspiration of arcane spells, and the blue crystals embedded on the building's exterior walls are shining, An extremely gentle, music-like sound that floats with the wind all the time, and the whole heavenly city is shrouded in this sound.

Although we still do n’t see many people, the normal operation of those buildings is enough to be called good news, at least this is still a little empty and a little bit more energetic.

"Look, there are guards already." Sandora glanced around, suddenly pointing at a floating bridge in front of the left, and following the direction of her fingers, I saw two vaguely standing at the end of the floating bridge. Pale blue figure-those are two elemental creatures.

It is foreseeable that before enough mystic apostles were born, the most "residents" in the Celestial City must be such elemental creatures that can be manufactured in batches, and it is not known whether their activity can bring more liveliness here atmosphere.

"Your Majesty?" Aurelia's voice came from the side, interrupting my thoughts. "Why are you here?"
