Super Mechanic: The God of Superpowers!

Chapter 169: Defending Planet Aquamarine
The raid came unexpectedly!

The golden energy shield of the Godora battleship exploded with dazzling light one after another

More than a dozen beams of light that escaped the net passed through the gaps in the fleet and fell directly onto the surface of Planet Aquamarine.

The streams of light falling from the sky splashed silver-white water when they landed on the ocean, and raised tiny columns of smoke and dust when they landed on the ground.

Of course, from a space perspective, these destructions are nothing more than tiny sparks.

"Activate the Vichy magic defense array!" Batet's roar made the command cabin buzz.

The fleet quickly gathered its formation.

Dense golden rays intertwined into ten giant arc-shaped barriers, covering half of the sky of the Aquamarine Planet tightly.

The second round of salvos from the Nokap fleet followed.

The ion cannons rained down on the barrier, stirring up layers of energy ripples. The entire protective layer seemed like a calm lake surface broken by a stone.

"Push the power to the critical value!" Batet roared, pounding the console.

"Don't be a sitting duck, fight me back!"

Countless golden spears of light pierced through the darkness and collided silently with the green light shot from the Nokap fleet in the deep space.

If there is no vacuum barrier.

At this moment, a continuous roar should be heard on the surface of the Aquamarine Planet, like thousands of war drums beating simultaneously above the clouds.

The ground observation station was in chaos, and the leaders of the six countries felt cold all over as they stared at the satellite images.

Although the horror of "Dark Star" has not yet been realized.

But Nagokin’s warning that “crushing us is like stepping on ants” is still ringing in my ears.

The evacuation alarm instantly sounded throughout the city, and a large crowd of people rushed to the underground fortress.

A green beam of light from the beam that had escaped the net earlier was hitting the outskirts of the city, causing the ground to shake instantly.

Under the column of smoke rising into the sky, half of the commercial street seemed to be crushed into pieces by an invisible giant hand.

The entrance to the shelter was packed with people, and several infected people who suddenly mutated caused a riot.

The guards were caught in a dilemma, and Wang Yuan grabbed the communicator and shouted until his voice was hoarse before he could barely keep his composure.

A scarlet prompt suddenly popped up on all players' panels, and an urgent task required assistance in maintaining order.

Many people craned their necks to look hard, and actually caught a faint flash of light among the clouds.

"Is there an interstellar war going on in the universe?"

"Shit! We can't even watch it live!"

This feeling of scratching an itch through a shoe makes players feel anxious and anxious.

Some people even clung to the railings of the watchtower and blinked desperately, as if they could see through the atmosphere by staring a few more times.

Amidst the complaints, someone suddenly said, "We must definitely build a spaceship in the future," which immediately resonated with everyone.

Naturally, someone would clean up the mess in the shelter, and Ye Xiu had no intention of intervening at all.

Although he also received an urgent task reminder.

But looking at the pitiful reward value, I really can't get interested.

He casually turned on the communicator and connected to Nagokin's channel.

"How's the battle going?"

"The fleet and DarkStar are currently engaged in a firefight. I don't know when reinforcements will arrive. I must join the battle."

In the picture, Nagokin rushed into the cockpit of the spacecraft, with alarms sounding one after another in the background.

"Then I'll stay here and keep the communication open." Ye Xiu nodded in response.

With the Godora Fleet and Nagakin on the front lines, there was really no need for him to take the risk of getting involved.

He was not surprised by DarkStar's surprise attack. After all, he was mentally prepared.

Turning to look at the mercenaries around him, he found that many of them were nervously wiping their weapons.

Although the rented spacecraft lacked firepower, they had no problem deploying protective shields to resist air strikes.

The power of the ship-borne ion cannon is no joke. With his current defense, he would lose nearly two thousand HP if he took a single shot.

If it were an ordinary player, he would probably be blown to pieces.

In a space battle of this level, only martial artists with high health and defense would dare to run around without armor.

According to the intelligence Ye Xiu had, the Dark Star Fleet usually did not conduct landing operations, and its focus was still on bombing in outer space.

He immediately arranged for mercenaries to fly spacecraft to the airspace of various countries to deploy a protective network.

Doing so can not only reduce ground losses, but also maintain the progress of the [Disaster of Alienation] mission.

The biggest headache for players is the sudden drop in progress caused by each Dark Star raid.

Although other disaster-stricken planets were also attacked, for now he could only focus on protecting Planet Aquamarine.

After all, both sides knew that DarkStar's ground forces were lurking here.

If the disaster relief results are destroyed, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

Staring at the real-time images sent back by Nagokin, Ye Xiu moved his finger joints.

The Godora fleet is fighting a bloody battle, and it would be best if we could force the enemy back.

He didn't want to reveal the fact that his strength had increased for the time being. The longer a trump card was hidden, the more valuable it would become.

Nagokin, who broke through the atmosphere, was immediately shocked by the scene before him.

Ten layers of golden energy barriers unfolded in outer space. The Godora fleet was engaged in a fierce firefight with DarkStar from a safe distance.

Experience told him that although this long-distance confrontation seemed fierce, in reality no one could do anything to the other.

The ion cannons continued to bombard the shield, creating brilliant energy ripples.

Even if a ship's shield is overloaded, other ships can quickly fill in and form a circular defense.

The technological levels of both sides are comparable, and the only means of killing within the range of conventional weapons is ion beam cannons.

Those nuclear missiles that tried to make a detour were accurately detonated before they flew halfway. If they wanted to really cause damage, they had to get closer.

This stalemate is like two beasts biting each other but always avoiding the vital parts.

It's purely a competition of energy reserves and endurance.

drip.

Batet's communication line was connected to Nagokin's channel.

"The shield won't hold out for long. We can't just sit there and wait to get beaten! Dark Star won't lose any men at this rate. We have to get in close combat!"

"Old Na, you lead the stormtroopers to tear open the gap, and I'll outflank them!"

"Do not impulse!"

Nagokin's voice was filled with electric noise. "The battle line is stable now. If we delay for another half an hour, they will definitely..."

"What the hell! The fleets on both sides are about the same size, but with a superpower like you, we can completely crush them! This kind of opportunity doesn't come around once every ten years!"

Batet's voice made the communicator buzz.

As a radical young officer, rather than defending that broken planet, his mind was full of military merits such as annihilating the main force of DarkStar.

Nago King Kong was about to retort when he suddenly heard a "clang" from the opposite side, as if Batet had knocked over something.

"Damn it! The radar shows that the enemy fleet has begun to retreat?!"

Nokap stood in front of the command desk with his hands behind his back, the hem of his uniform wrinkled from unconscious rubbing.

He stared at the holographic star map for three seconds, then suddenly raised his hand to cut off the jump alarm: "All ships, preheat engines and prepare for jump."

The bridge of Godora suddenly became a commotion.

The red light spots that originally covered the tactical screen were rapidly retreating.

The purple barrage from the ion cannons also became sparse, and the DarkStar fleet was actually actively withdrawing from the battlefield.

"They're trying to run away!" Batet punched the console.

"They must have realized they couldn't chew through our shells, so they ran away before reinforcements arrived!"

On Nagokin's surveillance camera, the enemy ship's markings were gradually blurring. "It certainly looks like they're retreating."

"We're almost out of lock range! My assault ship is already engaged!"

"What if it's a trap?"

"Fuck this trap! He gets beaten up and then lets people walk away like that? I can't afford to lose face like that!"

The spots of light at the edge of the star map are getting dimmer, and the dark star's stealth coating is taking effect.

Batet felt his palms were full of sweat and he could hardly hold the joystick.

Nagokin stared at the data stream jumping on the tactical panel.

According to the regulations, we should hold our ground and wait for help, but the tragic scene of the last bombing of the logistics station suddenly came to mind.

The wreckage of the three motherships floated in synchronous orbit like torn paper cranes.

"Leave 30% of our forces to guard the jump point."

He opened his collar to breathe, "I'll follow you."

"It should have been done long ago!" Batet grinned, and the roar of engines immediately rang out in the encrypted channel.

In a blink of an eye, the Godora escort fleet split into two groups, and eighty warships rushed directly towards the DarkStar fleet.

The remaining forty ships are still stationed outside of Planet Aquamarine on standby.

Batet decisively ordered a pursuit, but did not send out all the warships.

The enemy fleet has about 110 ships. Sending 80 pursuit ships can not only form an effective deterrent, but also leave enough room to deal with emergencies.

What’s more crucial is the presence of Nagokin, a disaster-level expert.

Even if you encounter an enemy with the same combat power, you can still deal with it.

The pursuit formation quickly closed the distance.

The ion cannon muzzle continuously shot out golden beams, weaving a dense long-range firepower network in deep space.

At the same time, it releases jump interference rays to completely block the opponent's escape route.

Noticed the Dark Star Fleet's unusual retreat.

Batet specifically ordered his troops to keep a safe distance.

Shift the tactical focus to containment and consumption, and be alert to possible counterattacks or ambushes.

The two fleets continued to fight in the star space, gradually moving away from the Aquamarine region.

At this moment, the radar of the remaining fleet suddenly sounded an alarm.

In a star field completely opposite to the direction of pursuit, hundreds of transition lights suddenly appeared.

The Dark Star surprise attack formation, consisting entirely of assault ships, was revealed.

It turns out that the total size of Nokapu's fleet exceeds 200 ships, far exceeding the Godora escort fleet.

He deliberately disguised the main force into teams to attract firepower, but in fact he hid elite troops to prepare for a direct attack.

This assault fleet that descended from the sky far outnumbered the forty remaining warships in both numbers and firepower, and launched a close-range stranglehold upon contact.

The energy shield trembled violently in the series of explosions. While the Godora fleet struggled to resist, they urgently transmitted information to the pursuing forces.

"So they're planning to divide their forces and surround us." Batet's pupils shrank slightly upon receiving the call for help, and he made a quick decision:

"Everyone, speed up and hold on to the command ship! Notify the remaining troops to abandon the defense line and move towards us immediately!"

"Not going back to support?" Nagokin asked in surprise.

"Turning back now would only lead to failure on both ends."

Batet pounded his fist against the command desk. "The enemy has twice as many troops as us. We have no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation."

"Why not concentrate our firepower to annihilate this command formation in front of us? As long as we put enough pressure on them, their commandos will naturally come back to support them!"

Batet snorted disdainfully. If he wanted to protect Godora's important planet, he would definitely stay close to it and prioritize stability.

But at the moment, this disaster star called Aquamarine Star is of no importance to him.

It can be treated as a chess piece that can be discarded at any time.

Between protecting this planet and blocking the DarkStar fleet, he would definitely choose the latter without hesitation.

The unusual circumstances of the first two raids aroused Batet's suspicion, and he simply left Planet Aquamarine completely exposed to enemy fire.

If Dark Star is unwilling to destroy even the defenseless disaster planet.

At least it can expose the enemy's true intentions.

Even if there is a misjudgment, it doesn't matter. One less disaster planet will actually reduce the burden on the war situation.

Nagokin frowned. At this point, he really couldn't change Batet's decision. He could only say in a deep voice, "I have to notify the alien world first."

"No need, I heard everything."

Ye Xiu's deep voice came from the communicator, without any unnecessary nonsense: "I'll handle the commando team."

Nagokin clenched his fists, took a deep breath, turned and rushed towards the bridge passage.

At this time, his fleet had caught up with the Dark Star command fleet led by Nokap.

The fleets of both sides crisscrossed in the starry space, and countless energy beams intertwined into a web.

The assault ship he was on was approaching a hundred-meter-long Dark Star battleship at full speed. The violent collision caused the entire cabin to tremble.

laugh.

The hatch suddenly opened in the vacuum environment, and Godora's special battle suit was instantly activated.

The golden energy shield wrapped around Nagakin's entire body like liquid flame.

Accelerating with the recoil force field, he transformed into a golden comet and slammed heavily into the hull of the Dark Star battleship.

The impact of the fist actually created spider-web-like cracks in the three-meter-thick composite armor!
Seventeen powerful punches poured down like a rainstorm, and the metal bulkhead was blown open.

It rushed into the ship's hull with an energy storm.

Wherever Nagokin passed, electric sparks burst out from the control consoles, and the mechanical guards blocking his way were torn into pieces by the wind of his fists.

When he broke through the wall from the other side, the battleship behind him had turned into a gorgeous ball of space fireworks.

In the vacuum battlefield, high-level super-powered people have always been the core of the raid.

Instead of attacking the battleship's shield head-on, it is better to transform into a human cannonball and pierce the enemy ship's heart.

The golden figure shuttling through the hail of bullets at this moment is interpreting this iron law of space warfare.

Following Batet's orders, the remaining Godora forces began to retreat, intending to reunite with the main fleet.

Nokap keenly sensed the enemy's radical combat intentions and decisively adjusted his tactics, splitting the assault fleet again.

The main pursuit force followed the Godora defenders out of the battlefield, forming a diversionary force to prevent the command ship from being trapped.

In the end, only thirty assault ships remained to attack Planet Aquamarine.

Although the mysterious alien forces never showed up.

But after looking through past battle reports, Nokap judged that these troops were more than enough to deal with the target planet.

Without the protection of the fleet, Planet Aquamarine was like a lamb to be slaughtered.

Thirty pitch-black warships pierced through the clouds, and destructive green-light artillery fire poured down like a torrential rain.

These attacks were not aimless; all the gun barrels were precisely locked onto the coordinates of the six countries' capitals and refuges.

Their real purpose is to destroy these strategic locations.

Ye Xiu had been prepared and dispatched more than ten mercenary spaceships to garrison key areas in advance.

At this moment, these spaceships are holding up energy barriers and enduring the continuous ion bombardment.

The translucent shield flickered under the intense firepower, and the energy readings continued to decline visibly.

Although the players in the shelter could not see the fierce battle in the sky, they could see the emerald green light explosions outside the protective shield.

The thunderous roar shook the ground, as if it was the doomsday scene of divine punishment.

Someone excitedly came up to the observation window and pointed, "Look! That's a starship-to-starship battle!"

"The mission progress bar is going backwards! It must be the attack!"

"If we didn't have the protective shield, we would have been blown to pieces long ago, right?"

Unlike the players who were just watching the fun, the civilians in the capitals of the six countries were already scared out of their wits.

Every loud noise caused by the green light hitting the shield was like a sledgehammer hitting my heart.

The streets were filled with people running for their lives, their cries and the sounds of sirens mixed together.

At this time, inside the Blacklight Lurker's bridge, Ye Xiu glanced at the holographic battle map.

The core members of the mercenary group gathered in front of the command platform, all of them looked tense.

The Godora fleet has not returned from pursuing the enemy, and now they can only rely on their own people.

"I told you earlier that those guys are unreliable." Ye Xiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, his fingertips running across the thirty scarlet marks in the projection.

"Sylvia, how long can the shield last?"

"Seven minutes at most!" The tactical officer quickly pulled up the data stream. "We must fight quickly, or the shelter won't survive the next salvo."

Looking at the swarm of enemy ships outside the porthole, Ye Xiu narrowed his eyes.

Although the Blacklight Lurker is a top-tier vehicle, it is still too risky to confront the firepower network of thirty warships head-on.

But who says we have to fight head-on?

"Old Qi is at the helm! Sylvia is assisting with navigation!" Ye Xiu suddenly turned and walked towards the armory, with a cunning smile on his lips.

The next second, three holographic control panels appeared out of thin air, and data streams poured down like waterfalls.

This is exactly the virtual hacker ability he replicated.

As the command was input, the outer armor of the entire battleship began to deform, and hundreds of micro-ports quietly unfolded.

The real battle has just begun.

Ye Xiu's fingers jumped quickly on the virtual keyboard, and dense data streams poured down like a waterfall.

Directly penetrate the enemy spacecraft's intelligence core through invisible network channels.

His special ability [Virtual Invasion] has a built-in data transmission function.

As long as it is within the coverage area, it can invade any electronic device without contact.

"Resda, help me tear open their protective net!"

Ye Xiu shouted as his ten fingers flew.

Originally, this was Pipijia's responsibility, but Resda's computing speed was obviously better.

Just as the intelligent offensive and defensive battle was going on fiercely, the Blacklight Lurker roared into the air.

The engine emitted a blue tail flame.

This pitch-black warship circled around the thirty Dark Star assault ships like a ghost, and dense laser beams continuously bombarded the opponent's joint shield.

Bang bang bang!
The ripples on the surface of the energy shield quickly subsided, and the assault ships didn't even bother to turn their guns.

Let this lonely spaceship harass the surroundings.

After all, they detected that the other side could not break through the defense at all, so they simply concentrated on pouring fire on the ground.

In the ground command center, senior officials from the six countries stared at the satellite images without daring to make a sound.

Godora's reinforcements hadn't arrived yet, and Black Star and the alien forces seemed to be in a tough fight.

The air in the underground bunker was filled with suffocating despair.

Suddenly, without warning, the shields of one of the assault ships went out.

The Blacklight Lurker seized the opportunity and fired a precise shot, with the red beam penetrating the ship's armor directly.

The violent explosion caused the neighboring warships to shake violently, and the two unlucky assault ships suddenly collided with each other.

"Success!" The observation hall was instantly boiling with excitement.

At this moment, the virtual interface in front of Ye Xiu has switched to a three-dimensional model of the assault ship.

Every time he changes a parameter, the real warship thousands of meters away will react synchronously.

It was he who remotely shut down the shield generator just now.

Glancing at the prompt messages scrolling madly on the system panel, the boy's lips curled up.

The most amazing thing about this technology is that any smart device can be hacked once.

Subsequent intrusions will be as easy as returning home and opening the door.

No wonder this ability is called "Electronic Minotaur" in mechanic circles.

After all, watching your mechanical creation being taken away from you does feel like having your wife snatched away in front of you.

The electronic protection network of the interstellar battleship is extremely strong.

Although the [Virtual Hacker] ability is only rated B+, the success rate of a single breakthrough is limited.

However, thanks to the all-round support of the auxiliary intelligent brain, the invasion efficiency has been significantly improved.

Resda, a top AI life form.

Its computing power far exceeds that of conventional intelligent systems, increasing the probability of cracking by at least 30%.

During the battle, Ye Xiu quickly seized control of the enemy assault ship.

First, it accurately destroyed its main weapon system, and then controlled the out-of-control ship to crash into the neighboring warship, instantly disrupting the enemy formation.

The rhythm of this elite assault fleet was disrupted by the sudden change.

They had originally let their guard down, relying on the fact that the Blacklight Lurkers could not break through the defense line.

However, they did not expect that the enemy could break through the electronic defense line, so they had to adjust their tactics urgently.

Ten warships immediately turned to intercept the Blacklight Lurker, and the remaining fleet deployed a defensive formation while maintaining the ground bombardment.

This was exactly the scene Ye Xiu had been expecting. The weakening of ground fire suppression bought them precious time.

With its excellent maneuverability and Qi Peijia's superb driving skills, the black battleship shuttled freely in the dense green energy beams.

The roar was deafening, and the dark warship moved flexibly like a peregrine falcon in the encirclement of ten enemy ships.
