Sister Pao’s fate was miserable.
The huge wealth that was about to be obtained went to her head, and she was not prepared for Qi Yiming to attack her.
When the Heavy Artillery was approaching the Redemption, Qi Yiming ordered the Xuefeng and the Redemption to fire on the Heavy Artillery.
The gunner sister had no time to send any distress signal, and the ship was sunk by the dense barrage of two destroyers.
She herself was vaporized by a burst laser from the Xuefeng that penetrated the shielding armor of the bridge.
Looking at the wreckage of the Heavy Artillery, Qi Yiming shook his head and ordered the Xuefeng’s gunner: “Destroy all lifeboats launched from the Heavy Artillery.”
Qi Yiming knew that this was not the time for compassion to overflow. If the situation was not dealt with cleanly, it would leave a trail behind.
It might bring him endless trouble in the future, so Qi Yiming could only be cold-blooded.
After taking care of the tail, Qi Yiming ordered the Xuefeng to approach the Redemption and prepare to combine the two warships.
“Warning… A large number of fleets are leaving the jump…” Xuefeng’s shipboard brain suddenly shouted a warning.
Qi Yiming stood in the bridge and saw more than 30 warships suddenly appearing 500,000 kilometers away from the Xuefeng.
“Commander of the battleship on the opposite side, listen… you have been surrounded… ah…” Dorante subconsciously said his common words when he was a ground patrol officer and immediately changed his words: “Commander of the battleship on the opposite side, turn off the engine immediately , muzzle up, waiting for inspection!”
After discovering the appearance of the imperial fleet, Qi Yiming knew that today’s matter could not be settled so easily.
Ignoring the warning from the Imperial Fleet Commander, Qi Yiming directly started the combination process with the Redemption.
After receiving the combined command, the two warships quickly approached.
“Please select combination mode…”
“Two-ship formation mode…”
After Qi Yiming put forward the mode selection on the shipboard brain, he did not choose to have the Xuefeng directly combined with the Redemption.
“Chen Cheng, you and Hao Chenqi go to the Guardian and bring enough energy blocks… The Guardian will be combined with the Redemption later. You will serve as the temporary captain of the combination. The new combination will still be called the Redemption.”
The two took orders and left quickly.
A few minutes later, Xuefeng disintegrated first.
The Guardian and Probe left combination mode at the same time.
The Probe did not fly far after escaping from its original position.
Instead, it moved to the lower side of the Lightning under the tug of the tractor beam shot by the Lightning, and the secondary guns on the ship were restored to two triple main guns.
One flew back to the Guardian, and the other flew to the position of the Lightning’s bow main gun under the action of the tractor beam, and recombined with the bow main gun to form a front and rear piggy-back main gun.
The main gun on the stern of the Probe also fell into the position of the main gun on the stern of the Lightning. It was also a front and rear backpack main gun.
Immediately afterwards, the Probe was firmly embedded in the armored cavity specially formed for her in the belly of the Lightning.
Xuefeng completed its transformation again and became a destroyer with 12 secondary guns and two front and rear piggyback triple main guns.
At the same time, the Guardian and the Redemption were combined in the same steps.
It’s just the main gun at the bow of the new Redemption. The upper part is the special main gun used to launch nanorobots and transmit energy. The lower part is the triple main gun, and her secondary gun has been replaced. The original 16 doors have been increased to 22 doors.
After completing the combination, the two warships quickly formed a two-ship formation. The Redemption was in a rear position and was protected by the Xuefeng.
When the captains of the imperial fleet saw this scene, they all made a fuss in the fleet channel.
“Is this a battleship that can be combined at will?”
“Is this showing off your skills? So what if it can be combined? I don’t know how effective it is in combat…”
“Don’t make any noise.” Dorante stopped everyone’s quarrel in time: “Every ship, please pay attention. The two cruisers maneuver to the level of the enemy ship and form a trapezoidal array upwards in order of battleship level.”
Although faced with the strange changes of Xuefeng and Redemption, the imperial fleet still moved quickly, completing the reorganization of the front within a few minutes and slowly approaching Qi Yiming’s two-ship formation.
“The Redemption… the secondary guns fire at full capacity to provide fire support for the ship, and the main guns fire at will.” Qi Yiming was not panicked. He could single-handedly fight off a full cruiser-level fleet without the Redemption. Now with the help of the Redemption, it is no longer a problem to kill this imperial fleet.
After the imperial fleet entered a distance of 450,000 kilometers, they launched a series of missiles intensively, numbering in the thousands.
Qi Yiming made a rough calculation and found that the number of missiles had exceeded the upper limit that Xuefeng and Redemption could intercept.
“The Redemption locks the ship and activates the remote maintenance system.” Qi Yiming ordered decisively.
Although the Guardian has lost the powerful energy support of the Lightning, the Redemption has sufficient energy blocks, and the energy consumption of the remote maintenance device has been optimized, which greatly enhances the durability of maintenance.
When the Empire’s missile rain entered the Xuefeng formation’s secondary battery range, the two warships opened fire with all their might.
The Xuefeng even turned on all the power furnaces in the ship, continuously providing abundant energy for the secondary guns.
The dense rain of missiles was instantly hit head-on.
Each laser beam can instantly burn out two or three missiles, but the firepower projected by the Imperial fleet at once is too dense. Even with the help of the Redemption, the Xuefeng can only intercept most of the missiles.
The missiles that passed through the defense network pounced directly on Qi Yiming’s two warships.
In order to protect the Redemption, the Xuefeng had to block the missile’s flight path under the command of Qi Yiming.
“The armor damage was 26%, the structural damage was 7%…” The shipboard brain faithfully reported the damage to the battleship, and the Xuefeng suffered heavy damage after just one attack.
“Oh my god… why are you so fierce?” Qi Yiming cursed.
Then he came to his senses.
Which businessman in the world has the most evil heart? Of course it’s an arms dealer…
The Xuanwu Galaxy is a useless place where you can’t assemble any warships you want, so you can only buy them everywhere.
Arms dealers are afraid of being counterattacked by the warships they sell, so of course they sell monkey version warships.
When facing Qi Yiming’s Xuefeng, he already had no advantage. Coupled with the generation difference, it would be difficult for Qi Yiming to lose.
But today he was facing an empire with a complete arms production line, and its combat effectiveness was certainly not the same.
“The monkey version of the battleship is killing people…” Qi Yiming couldn’t help but wailed.
But even so, Qi Yiming felt not guilty. Behind the Xuefeng was the Redemption, also known as the nanny.
The moment the Xuefeng was attacked, the Redemption activated its remote maintenance system.
Qi Yiming could clearly see Xuefeng’s injury information panel. The armor integrity value was rapidly recovering at a rate of 2% per second.
In other words, by the time the next round of attacks by the imperial fleet arrives, the Xuefeng has almost recovered to its original state.
Of course, it was impossible for Qi Yiming to just take a beating and not fight back.
The longer the battle lasts, the more advantageous it is for Yiming to align with the ebb and flow of strength on both sides.
So many recommendation votes…thank you everyone! ! I am moved to tears… Yes, I still have a monthly ticket… I continue to be moved and cry… By the way, I am writing this chapter, and I sat there for a long time to figure out how many secondary guns the two battleships should have, and what is the configuration of the main guns.
