Chapter 182: Shared Death
"It looks like the battle is going to be more intense than I thought, but it's better this way."
Nazddraig said loudly, his wild There is a sense of confidence in the metal voice.
Then he strode to the observation deck of the bridge and looked out from this point.
The huge hull stretched forward in front of him, and he could see the weapon array spitting flames. These powerful weapons could easily penetrate the shell of a battleship.
Modified planetary bombardment cannons rise from the enclosure's bays and are used primarily to weaken primary targets prior to landing.
However, this is not its purpose today, but...
If necessary, it can also destroy an enemy warship with an earth-shattering bombardment.
The Eternal Night is a powerful opponent, but it is by no means the strongest opponent Nazdregg has ever encountered. It is confident that it can defeat the opponent.
While the bombardment guns were raised, the doors of the torpedo launch bays also retracted into the hull, preparing for a salvo.
Inside the hull, all technicians have entered combat positions. Wearing protective suits, they perform their duties in the inaccessible areas of strong radiation, high heat and vacuum within the hull.
The big ship of Xiami was still approaching. Nazdraig stood on the platform of the observation deck and looked out. He saw countless small beams of light shooting through the space towards his ship. At the same time, from A salvo of torpedoes coming from below almost hit them.
He subconsciously grasped the guardrail with both hands, preparing for the inevitable impact.
“Coming.”
“Boss, the impact caused by the Xiami torpedo salvo will come in twenty seconds.”
The big tech master under the bridge also shouted at the same time.
Twenty-four torpedoes were fired directly at the Reefed Ship. The green-skinned bombers between the torpedo array and their targets turned around and fled at incredible angles to avoid the coming wall of destruction. Show incredible flexibility when doing so.
Then, the ship's turrets poured defensive barrages against those unexpected attacks.
Some torpedoes that had no time to adjust their trajectory were destroyed, while others frighteningly got through the defensive barrage of the reefed ship.
Finally, the four torpedoes passed through the defensive fire net intact, and the ship's horn began to sound loudly to warn of the impending impact.
"There are still four torpedoes that have not been destroyed!"
Big Techba hissed, trying hard to suppress the piercing alarm.
"Launch torpedoes! Do it with them!"
Nazddraig's voice remained calm and collected.
The next second, torpedoes roared out from the launch bay of the stranded ship and shot towards the Evernight.
The ship then slowly adjusted its hull, trying to turn its heavily armored side toward enemy torpedoes to protect its open launch bay from the incoming attack.
It used extremely unnatural maneuvers beyond the designed range to evade, and slowly turned the ship's bow.
The first torpedo hit the middle of the side first. The defensive shield of the reef ship absorbed most of the energy of the explosion, and blue energy radiation ripples appeared at the impact point.
The last two torpedoes also did useless work and could only spread blue energy ripples throughout the ship.
The fourth torpedo hit the forward launch module. After withstanding the previous explosions and long periods of firing, the defensive shield in the area could no longer withstand this direct hit.
The explosion tore through weak parts of the hull, and fire engulfed the launch cabin. Metal fragments falling everywhere caused a large number of casualties to the mechanics of the launch cabin.
The destruction was exacerbated by subsequent secondary explosions in the weapons depot and fuel tanks.
The automatic fire extinguishing system within the ship was activated and began to extinguish the flames to control the loss.
Soon, the goblins rushed into the damaged cabin to clean up the rubble, while the mechanics came to the damaged deck and started welding to repair the damaged systems and control functions.
"The report said that the damage to the front launch module was not significant, boss." Big Tech gave the simplest report.
Under its control, the Reefed Ship sailed back to its original channel.
But at this time, on the entire tactical map, small green dots representing transport ships suddenly appeared and scattered in all directions.
Nazdregg withdrew his attention from the observation deck and turned to the tactical map.
He discovered these strange things. Although most of the transport ships seemed to be in panic, if you look closely, you will find that their routes are actually very dangerous, and they have been approaching the green skins. Battleship.
The siren suddenly sounded louder again.
“What’s wrong?”
Nazddraig had already thought of the answer before he asked the question.
"It's a proximity alarm, boss, several boats are heading towards us."
"Get it done!"
The green-skinned pirate warlord shouted orders, and the bad premonition became stronger and stronger.
"Boss, I understand."
The big tech master nodded and began to give instructions.
"All port weapons, No. 2 and No. 4 cannons, aim at those small broken boats and hit me hard! Don't let them touch us!"
The rockslide begins. Following its master's orders, laser and plasma fire tore through the hull of a transport ship in an instant, cutting off her bridge.
Then, terrifying bombardment cannons began firing into her cargo bay.
The transport ship was smashed into pieces and began to float lifelessly, with flames and lightning jumping on her hull.
But the next second, unexpectedly, she exploded.
Such a huge explosion cannot be caused by the engine of a transport ship of this size.
The transport ship turned into a small star at the moment of the explosion. The shock wave hit the port side of the reefed ship. Its bridge began to shake violently, and the hull exploded everywhere as if it was hit by a shotgun. stand up.
"Oops! Stay away from these ships!! Hurry!!"
Nazdreg, who finally realized what humans were planning to do, began to roar angrily, and the Big Tech Master suddenly became confused.
But it was too late. A large number of transport ships were like knives, sinking into the greenskin's dense formation.
Although some were destroyed midway, more were preserved.
Immediately afterwards, the escort fleet led by Spark opened fire, but the target was not the green-skinned battleship.
The surging light spears and cannonballs hit the fuel transport ships.
In an instant, a flat sun rose from the asteroid belt, and the energy wave spread out in all directions, submerging the nearby green-skinned battleships in a frozen moment.
City-sized hulls disintegrated, pouring the fuel of their reactors into the burning storm.
Every second the frenzy continues to expand, swallowing up ships that are too slow to escape its embrace.
As for the human fleet, as early as the transport fleet appeared, they had already turned on their engines and turned their bows.
With a hiss of death as ships died, the Greenskin fleet suffered a devastating blow.
