Chapter 187: Encounter Battle
“All Qing Luan squads please note, we are about to arrive at the exercise area, deploy in squad formation, all radar scans fully activated.”
“Received”
As several acknowledgments sounded one after another in the communication channel, the Young Dragon B-type spaceships arranged in two rows in deep space quickly spread out, soon forming 4 squads.
This was the asteroid belt located at the Jupiter Ring. According to the predetermined plan, they needed to pass through the 1.1 million kilometer thin gauze ring area on the outer edge of Jupiter, complete the routine patrol mission, and then return to base.
At this moment, these 20 Young Dragon B-types were navigating at high speed at 800 kilometers per second.
Suddenly, a white light flashed in the thin layer of gauze ahead.
“Encountered unknown attack, all squads reduce speed immediately! Prepare for impact defense immediately!”
Qing Luan Squad One Captain Wang Wei roared directly in the communication channel.
He was very familiar with this white light, and at this moment, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
Too ruthless!
The opponent’s purpose was very clear: they used a dense bomb right away to create a shockwave, attempting to reduce the speed of the entire fleet and launch a surprise attack.
The maximum speed of Young Dragon A-type was only 500 kilometers per second; according to normal plot development, they wouldn’t even be able to catch up with their fleet.
From the white light flashing to filling the entire nearby space, it was only an instant. Wang Wei maneuvered the spaceship to evade while glancing ahead with his eyes.
A massive, visible shockwave rapidly spread toward the fleet.
Their entire fleet had no time to evade. At this moment, the 4 squads scattered like celestial maidens scattering flowers, instantly dispersing in all directions to try to avoid the possible dense missile attacks that might follow the shockwave.
The power of the dense bomb was evidently extremely terrifying. The moment it contacted the Young Dragon B-types, the entire fleet shook violently like a small boat drifting in a storm.
The deceleration power combined with the counter-thrust from the shockwave completely exceeded the gravity limit that humans could withstand in that instant.
“Too ruthless, A’dai, check their physical data immediately.”
In the Blue Star Space Hub, Fan Ren was startled by this scene and quickly spoke up to remind.
On the other side, a trace of worry appeared on Liu Shengzhan’s face, and he secretly clicked his tongue at the exercise subjects set by Li Jian.
“Boss, except for Qing Luan Squad One Captain Wang Wei who is temporarily still maintaining a conscious state, all other squads have fallen into brief unconsciousness, but the acceleration has decreased, and these team members will recover one after another in about 10 seconds.”
Fan Ren immediately felt relieved in his heart, but he became curious about that squad leader named Wang Wei.
His body withstood instantaneous gravity exceeding 15 Gs without passing out and stayed conscious.
This physical fitness was already on par with his own.
Up to now, he could gradually guess that his own body must have been affected by the Civilization Seed System to have such abnormal qualities.
But Wang Wei was different; this physical fitness was simply innate for spaceship piloting.
Exercise area.
At this time, under the influence of various factors, the speed of the entire Qingluan Brigade had dropped sharply to 300 kilometers per second.
Capillaries in Wang Wei’s eyes burst under the immense gravity, his eyeballs began to fill with blood, becoming extremely terrifying.
His gaze was fixed ahead; under the influence of the dense bomb, all shipborne scanning radars had temporarily failed.
Soon, the white light gradually dissipated.
The area ahead gradually became clear, revealing a dense number of Young Dragon A-type spaceships blotting out the sky as they charged straight toward their formation.
“Locked on!”
At this moment, a piercing warning sounded timely inside the spaceship.
“Quick! All squads follow me closely, thrust to maximum, target straight ahead at 45 degrees upward, charge through.”
Wang Wei’s face darkened like the bottom of a pot. Even knowing this was just an exercise, he couldn’t help but feel furious.
He had thought the simulated encounter battle wouldn’t be simple, but he hadn’t expected the directing department to give them no chance to breathe at all. After using the dense bomb to decelerate the entire fleet, Team A immediately rushed out from cover in the asteroid belt, taking advantage of their radar failure window to lock onto their fleet.
Though thinking this in his heart, his hands didn’t stop moving. He quickly aligned the spaceship’s bow to 45° upward straight ahead, and their spaceship began to accelerate rapidly.
Wang Wei glanced at the formation diagram; some teammates had already fallen behind.
Without another word, he roared, “Activate follow program, quick!”
As his words finished, when he looked ahead again, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The Young Dragon A team began launching missiles.
In that instant, veins bulged on Wang Wei’s arms, but his whole person became calm.
Behind, one Young Dragon B-type after another activated the follow program following his command.
Soon, the Qingluan Brigade’s Young Dragon spaceships reformed in space, lining up neatly side by side, rapidly charging forward following the spaceship of Captain Wang Wei in the center.
“Electromagnetic shield bombs ready. 3, 2, 1, launch!”
Wang Wei’s voice was no longer roaring as before but became calm, as if his entire person had suddenly transformed.
Following his command, the missile launch ports in front of the 20 emerald green Young Dragon spaceships spat out white missiles one after another.
“Impact defense preparation, communications will cut off in five seconds, each squad captain maneuver freely, disband formations and enter free attack mode.”
This was the last instruction Wang Wei could issue.
After the launched missiles exploded, the area within a 500-kilometer radius would enter a complete electromagnetic shield state.
This was the Qingluan Brigade sounding the horn of counterattack.
In space, the missiles launched by the 200 Young Dragon A-types seemed to malfunction in that instant. Just before contacting the Qingluan Brigade, they streaked straight underneath like meteors, heading off without looking back into the unknown depths of space.
Not far away, the unmanned Peregrine Falcon controlled by A’dai hovered quietly, its shipborne camera faithfully broadcasting the scene to the Blue Star Space Hub Command Headquarters and the Space Force Fire Wood Branch Command Headquarters.
“It’s coming!”
Fan Ren’s fist unconsciously clenched; the electromagnetic bomb was a new product from Xinghai Laboratory.
The effect of this bomb could clear all electromagnetic signals in the nearby space within a short time, even missile tracking guidance signals would be lost.
Captain Wang Wei’s command was perfectly timed, using the new weapon to create a glimmer of hope for the Qingluan Brigade.
And the performance of the electromagnetic bomb also satisfied him greatly.
Over there, the entire 500-kilometer radius area directly fell into a radio shield field, with no spaceship able to emit electromagnetic wave communications.
Even at that moment, the missiles over there could no longer track normally.
In view, Wang Wei piloted his spaceship at the forefront, charging rapidly toward the enemy fleet.
Immediately after, Fan Ren’s eyes widened in disbelief at the scene before him.
