Chapter 1478 Crimson Galaxy Suppression Operation (5)
Tracer bullets flashed quickly in front of his eyes, and the ion beam seemed to be rotating, coming from all directions. Hall had to watch six directions to ensure that he was up, down, left, and right. .
Grabbing the corpse of an enemy magic mecha, Hall used it as a shield to block the 20mm cannon of a three-machine formation, and then counterattacked with the 40mm rapid-fire cannon in his hand.
Originally, Hall followed Li Chengqi. On the one hand, he felt very safe with him, and on the other hand, Hall wanted to learn Li Chengqi's ideas of fighting in complex terrain.
There was no problem at first, until the second wave of enemy planes arrived. As the number of enemy planes increased sharply, and the density of meteorites around them increased, Hall unexpectedly lost them. .
Li Chengqi's movements were too fast, and there were too many obstacles in the meteorite belt. Hall was quickly dispersed by the enemy aircraft group.
Discarding the corpses of the enemy planes that were riddled with holes, the three-plane formation attacking Hall did not attempt a dogfight, but immediately pulled up after the end of an attack window.
Fighting in the meteorite belt, magic mechas have an absolute advantage in flexibility compared to space fighters. The performance of these space fighters from the Planetary Defense Force is lagging behind. It is unwise to fight in circles.
Many of the enemy's pilots were temporarily recruited to make up the numbers, but before the Swan came, they had already fought against the cruiser formations of the 13th and 19th fleets. The pilots who are still alive are either Either he has transformed from a new recruit to a veteran, or he was a highly skilled player and the rookie would have died long ago.
Hall wanted to go around to the other side of the meteorite to find a better attack position. At this time, she turned her head and saw the surging engine light falling from directly above, crushing the three-machine formation with one foot. The lead aircraft in the middle and the two wingmen immediately dispersed, but were smashed into sieves by the beam Balkan cannon.
Li Chengqi emerged from the explosion of orange flash and flames.
"The situation is not quite right. I saw the Swan fired a blue retreat flare."
Li Chengqi can easily shuttle through the meteorite belt, but even he, in the meteorite Traveling in and out of the belt can also result in limited vision.
So Li Chengqi often fought for a while, then flew above the meteorite belt to observe the situation below, and then went there to fight for a while depending on where there were more enemy planes.
And this habit allowed him to see the signal flares. Most of the friendly forces were entangled in the meteorite belt, but they did not notice it.
Upon hearing this, Hall immediately announced the news on the friendly forces channel, and other surrounding friendly forces would continue to pass the news to friendly forces further away.
Meteorites that are too dense can not only block radar detection, but also block communications, so we can only use this method to notify everyone as soon as possible.
"And there seems to be clutter on my radar. There are a lot of red dots that appear and disappear. How about yours?"
Hall glanced at the radar:
“There are a lot of mine too, and they seem to be getting closer.”
Li Chengqi's airborne radar works differently from Silver Tornado, but both radars show the same display...
That's not clutter, there's something really approaching.
The two immediately flew down from the hidden meteorite, and Hall fired a flare in the direction of the dense red dots.
“That’s a crystalline life form!”
Each one is about two or three meters long, and the purple-red rhombus crystals are moving quickly through the meteorite belt, and the number is so huge that they are like a purple-red tide. .
These guys only chase life signal activities. In other words, wherever there are living people, they are their attack targets. Whether it is a battleship or a magic mecha space fighter, they don't pick at all.
No wonder the Swan issued a retreat order. The carrier-based aircraft was completely unable to deal with these guys.
Screams and horrified whimpering immediately sounded in Hall's friendly channel. There were many recruits in the fleet driving magic mechas. They had already tried their best just to deal with the enemy. How could I have seen this? Plant something. Li Chengqi and Hall were somewhat mentally prepared for this. The things found on the Silver Gear had already been told to the crew of the Swan, but when they actually saw the things coming like a tide, they still felt quite sleepy. groove.
The two stepped on the pedal almost at the same time, and the engine behind them once again lit up the bright engine light, flying towards the general direction of the Swan.
The only good news is that the targets pursued by the crystalline lifeforms are not only the carrier-based aircraft of the Spinning Water Federation, but also the people of the Red Maple Republic Planetary Defense Force.
They will not look at the paint on your body, but all living creatures are within the attack target.
It’s just that the Planetary Defense Force should have received the news a little earlier. When Li Chengqi and Hall began to retreat, the Planetary Defense Force’s space fighters had already withdrawn first.
"Don't stop! The rapid-fire cannons can't stop them!"
In the public channel, Li Chengqi stopped a friendly mecha that tried to turn around and fire, and Hall put the four missiles on his waist The offensive grenades were thrown behind them all at once, which could somewhat slow down the progress of those purple crystals.
The attack method of these guys is very simple impact, but as long as they are hit by it, the body will crystallize in an instant, including the pilot inside.
Manic mechas have no shields and are slower than space fighters. There is no room for error when encountering crystalline lifeforms. You must not have any entanglement with them.
The appearance of the GP02 opened by Li Chengqi is very different from that of ordinary magic mechas. Almost all friendly forces can recognize him at a glance. When he shouted in the public channel to let everyone retreat quickly, everyone Very obedient.
Soon the number of friendly troops around him changed from a dozen to more than twenty or thirty. While gathering the friendly troops, they retreated quickly.
But the speed is still not fast enough.
The speed of the crystallized life form is about the same as that of a space fighter, but it is very flexible.
It feels like a lionfish, which can turn at sharp angles. It seems that the turning characteristics of lionfish are similar to those of crystalline life forms. It is difficult to say whether the royalists are referencing them.
But don’t think about these details for now, just run away.
"I will block you for a while, take the opportunity to run quickly, and never look back."
Li Chengqi suddenly backflips back, running from the leader to the end of the team, facing the incoming people The crystallized life form is on full fire.
Crystalline lifeforms are very fragile, and a shrapnel from a 20mm cannon can kill several of them.
It is a pity that Li Chengqi does not have diffusion rockets now, otherwise the effect would be better.
But even so, GP02 still has so many weapons all over its body, it feels like the body can fire ion beams or railguns everywhere.
The friendly forces were moved by Li Chengqi's fearless spirit of sacrifice. Hall also heard someone crying on the communication channel.
Especially when they saw Li Chengqi’s body being submerged in purple-red crystals after winning the most critical seconds, everyone looked like characters in a sad drama, crying so hard that they couldn’t help but cry.
After all, they didn't know that there was no one in the cockpit of Li Chengqi's aircraft.
