Qi Yiming’s return did give the captains of the escort fleet a shot in the arm to a certain extent.
But this does not fundamentally solve the problem of humankind’s imminent demise.
Soon, Qi Yiming and Qiao Shan returned to the bridge of their respective battleships.
“Aurora, come closer to me.” The first thing Qi Yiming did when he returned to the bridge was to ask Qiao Shan’s Aurora to move closer to him quickly.
When the Aurora approached the Xuefeng super flagship to a certain distance, Qiao Shan suddenly found that he had lost control of the Aurora.
The Aurora arrived at her bow position under the guidance of the Xuefeng. At the same time, the other shield modular battleships also automatically decomposed as they approached, and flew towards their targets under the guidance of the Xuefeng.
Soon a circular gun mount was raised at the mirror position of the War Spear, and the Aurora stuck its stern on the circular gun mount without any bias.
Azure and Paranoid entered the ship directly from the ejection port of the carrier-based battleship in the middle of Xuefeng’s super flagship, and were transported to the designated location inside Xuefeng for installation under the tow of the giant platform.
As for the other shield modular battleships, they also flew to their respective combination positions according to the prefabricated procedures.
After completing the combination, Qiao Shan took the ship’s traffic boat to the bridge of Xuefeng. Although he had also experienced the combination process of modular warships, this was the first time he saw the complete combination of all modular warships in the strategic strike fleet. .
Along the way, he had strong confidence in this battleship, which Qi Yiming had high hopes for.
Arriving at the bridge, Qi Yiming pointed to a console on his right hand side: “That console is the main console of the shield-system modular battleship. Where are you responsible for monitoring the operating status of the shield-system battleship.”
Qiao Shan didn’t say much, and went directly to the position assigned to him by Qi Yiming and stood there.
“Red Dragon, launch a special battle stance…”
Chilonghao is the official ship name given by the former Human Federation to the final assembly of modular battleships. As for the Xuefeng used by Qi Yiming before, it was just a zero-era name.
This is because there are too many combination sequences of module numbered battleships. Generally, as long as it is not the final combination, the ship names are temporarily arranged by the captain.
After receiving Qi Yiming’s instructions, the Chilong’s shipboard brain quickly began to change its attitude.
First, the two super main guns composed of battleships at the bow of the ship fit together with the movement of their respective gun mounts to form a new main gun.
Although there is nothing particularly novel about the gun body, and there is no indication of how powerful the gun is, Qi Yiming knows that the attack intensity of this main gun is second only to the Light of Destruction.
Then the Azure deployed its energy shield.
But this time the energy shield is completely different from what I saw before.
The previous shield could only see a faint blue light film, but this time the energy shield felt like a red dragon with a blue solid shell, and the range of the energy shield was It is much larger than before, and almost all human warships are included in it.
This is all thanks to the shield battleship Qiao Shan found, the Big Belly.
Although the name seems a bit ridiculous, it is indeed the most important cruiser among the battleships replaced by shield modules.
The interior of her hull is filled with energy reserve tanks. With her support, the Azure can expand the shield range to a radius of 2 light minutes, but the shield strength can be maintained above 800,000 degrees.
This is still a range of energy shield. If the Azure changes the shield to single mode, then the Red Dragon will have an energy shield with a strength of 6 million degrees.
If you look carefully, you will see a burst of red light flashing on the surface of the energy shield.
This is the function of the destroyer Paranoid. When the enemy hits the energy shield, she can absorb a certain amount of attack energy or change the characteristics of the location where the shield is hit, greatly reducing the enemy’s damage to the shield.
The fleet was suddenly protected by a large-scale energy shield, which slightly delayed the attack of the insect swarm.
But then a dense red light flashed on the shield, and a large amount of cryogenic liquid in the cabin where the ship’s brain was housed on the Paranoid began to be heated to boiling by the gradually heating main body of the brain, and a large amount of harmful gases floated in the cabin. This is the result of low-temperature liquid being vaporized.
Qiao Shan looked at the shield strength value in front of him that was decreasing crazily.
In the blink of an eye, the strength of the 800,000-degree shield drops to 630,000 degrees. At this rate, the large-scale energy shield that looks very scary will be defeated by the insect swarm.
Qi Yiming seemed to know all of this and didn’t care at all about the crazy decrease in shield strength.
“Red Dragon, prepare for long-range delivery…”
“Remote delivery charging begins, please select the delivery target…”
Qiao Shan was stunned when he heard Qi Yiming’s next order. This was the first time he heard about remote delivery, and he couldn’t understand what Qi Yiming was going to do.
Qi Yiming lit up all the colonial spaceships in the long-range delivery selection process, and also arranged for a fleet of about 100,000 warships to be delivered together with the colonial spaceships.
In short, all the ether crystals stored inside the Red Dragon can be used up at once, and the fleet can be sent as far as it can.
The strength of the energy shield was rapidly decreasing, and a layer of sweat had appeared on Qiao Shan’s forehead.
After Qi Yiming issued the delivery order that seemed strange to him, he just commanded the fleet to defend the defense line step by step, but everyone knew that in this case, it would be a matter of time before the insect swarm broke through.
Just when Qiao Shan wanted to ask Qi Yiming if he had any better plans, he suddenly noticed from the battlefield monitor that three of his own giant colonial spaceships disappeared after a burst of red light.
Along with the three giant colonial spaceships, a large number of battleships and small colonial spacecraft brought by Qiao Shan also disappeared.
“What… happened? Where have those colonial spaceships and battleships gone?” Qiao Shan’s legs went weak when he saw this scene.
Qi Yiming smiled and said to him: “Don’t be nervous. I just used space jump technology to send them to a galaxy more than 300 light-years away. They are safe.”
Qiao Shan felt relieved after hearing Qi Yiming’s explanation.
He immediately said to Qi Yiming: “Then what are you waiting for? Send away the remaining battleships.”
Who would have thought that Qi Yiming said: “The remaining battleships can only rely on themselves.”
“Why?”
“There’s not enough material left. I can’t even send a small transport boat away now.”
Qiao Shan sat back in his seat dejectedly, muttering: “How could this happen? I finally got here…”
After a few seconds, Qiao Shan said to himself again: “That’s good. At least we have sent most of the people out. After all, we have left a glimmer of hope for human civilization.”
Qi Yiming looked at the sad Qiao Shan and didn’t know how to comfort him. He just walked up to him and patted his shoulder: “If we try hard, we may not die here…”
Qiao Shan raised his head and glanced at Qi Yiming. He didn’t know where the man in front of him got his confidence.
Look at the swarm surrounding them? The sky-blocking Leviathan has already crowded the local galaxy. Even if there are more than two million warships in the local galaxy, what hope is there of breaking out of the encirclement?
