Chapter 806 The approaching footsteps
Alyssa quickly sat on the chair and fastened her seat belt. Driven by the hydraulic structure, the seat was pushed into the gun emplacement.
The shading mode of the special glass in front was turned on, and one could clearly see the orange flashes of light in the void outside Black Hand Port and the staggered trajectory of the main gun fire.
The battle had already begun when she sat on the gun position. Alyssa held the control lever that looked like a steering wheel, her palms slightly sweaty.
Theoretically speaking, whether it is a colonial satellite or a battleship, countless anti-aircraft guns can be controlled by the machine soul, and the accuracy is very high, far beyond what humans can match.
But the machine soul is stupid, a typical artificial retarded person.
For example, when two shuttles fly into the range of the anti-aircraft fire network, the machine spirit will control all the anti-aircraft guns that can be aimed to attack the first enemy plane that enters, and turn a blind eye to the second one. It will not transfer to the enemy plane unless the first one is destroyed. Next goal.
One or two shuttles are like this. Once a fleet of hundreds of enemy aircraft enters the air defense firepower network, the artificial intelligence will really be mentally retarded.
This is when human intervention is needed.
The gunnery chief in the command room will transmit the position information to the subordinate gunners based on the radar. The gunners select targets in their own defense areas according to the instructions, which is equivalent to artificially dividing the target defense area for the machine soul. Sometimes when the machine soul responds slowly, The gunner had to operate the anti-aircraft gun himself.
Alyssa controlled four twin-mounted 40mm anti-aircraft guns. Through the wide-angle glass window, she looked up and saw the fleet of aircraft that had entered a state of chaos.
Enemy planes and our shuttles encountered each other in the airspace closer to the colonial satellite. Compared with the fleet in the distance, where only the vague outline could still be seen, the flashes of the fleet fighting were clearer.
And Alyssa saw at a glance that there was an engine light in this group of aircraft that was very coquettish in its operation. Sometimes it was on the left, sometimes it was on the right, sometimes it was drawing an S shape, and now it was flying a B shape. It was almost a mockery to her forehead. superior.
You don't need to think about it to know that it must be Li Chengqi. Most people can't handle such a large overload and maneuver.
This is not because Li Chengqi wanted to deliberately ridicule. Li Chengqi's air combat concept was seriously affected by flight simulation games.
In many simulated flight games with confrontational elements, what is more important than the number of enemies is how to steal heads from teammates and ensure that you will not be shot down.
Therefore, Li Chengqi is very accustomed to using precise short-point shots to escape in one blow without any entanglement at all. In addition, there is no air resistance in the void, and the Manta Ray can make incredible maneuvers, which is very coquettish when displayed.
Alyssa was not worried at all about whether the Manta would be shot down, she was more worried about whether Villania sitting on it would vomit all over herself.
After all, everyone who has done it knows what Li Chengqi does, and your brains will be shaken.
At this time, Alyssa felt a slight vibration and saw fire coming from below. It was the anti-aircraft gun placed below her that fired.
At the same time, there was a long beep, and a red triangle representing enemy aircraft appeared on the main control screen. The enemy aircraft group had approached the Black Hand Port.
Li Chengqi was above the colonial satellite, and the fleet of aircraft that appeared this time was from below. It seemed that the enemy had released more than one fleet of aircraft.
This is not good news. The number of carrier-based aircraft is related to the hangar. The more carrier-based aircraft, the larger the ship and the greater the number. It can even be said that the number of aircraft fleets currently appearing has far exceeded that of normal pirates. quantity.
Something is very wrong.
Without time to think about it, Alyssa immediately operated the screen and instructed the machine spirit to attack the target. Four 40mm twin anti-aircraft cannons roared and spit out tongues of fire.

There are many dangers in the void, not just pirates. Colonial satellites may encounter regular armies trying to bring them into their notice, or they may encounter terrifying void creatures, and sometimes they may even be forced to fight street battles inside colonial satellites.
Therefore, enough shelters are a necessity. Even if they are not used at ordinary times, the number of casualties will skyrocket if they are not needed when needed.
Fang Lanyin and An Yun led the somewhat uneasy Shanna to huddle in a corner of the shelter, surrounded by panicked people.
Port Blackhand has almost never been attacked, and apart from its security forces, there are no specially trained defense forces.
Most of the men have received militia-level combat training in case of emergency, so the people in the shelter are basically the elderly, children and women. The ceiling lights hanging from the ceiling flicker with subtle vibrations, creating an unsettling atmosphere.
"It's okay, sister Alyssa will protect us."
Fang Lanyin comforted Shanna, who held Fang Lanyin in one hand and An Yun in the other. The golem named Benben sat behind her, forming a small harbor, as if this could give her Brings a sense of security.
With a buzzing sound, accompanied by a strong buzzing and low vibration, the lights in the shelter went out for an instant, causing the crowd to scream in terror. Fortunately, the lights were restored within a few seconds, otherwise it might have caused panic and then resulting in a stampede.
"I'm going to get some information. The pirates shouldn't be making such a big move."
An Yun was born in Ke Xing City, a place full of pirates. She knew these guys very well.
Pirates usually don't attack colonial satellites because it's a losing business.
Colonial satellites are a tough nut to crack, and even the regular army cannot deal with them in a short time. Even if it can be broken through and a large amount of wealth can be plundered, the price paid is absolutely unbearable for pirates.
The targets of pirates are mostly merchant fleets or places like mining satellites. If they are desperate, they will also attack agricultural colonies like Alan Starlink to plunder large amounts of expensive agricultural products.
But what does Blackhand Port have?
It is true that this place can produce parts and a certain amount of agricultural products, but these things are not enough to pay for a pirate trip. Unless you are crazy and poor, you should not risk heavy losses to attack colonial satellites.
An Yun was about to get up, but Shanna used a little more strength and almost pulled An Yun down.
"Don't go."
Shanna's face lost its usual smile as bright as the spring sun, and her small face was full of seriousness.
"Something is approaching."
"What?"
"I have no idea."
Shanna hugged her shoulders as if she was cold.
"It's a very scary, scary thing. I can even hear its footsteps."
Fang Lanyin looked at An Yun, who put his fingers on his temples and his eyes lit up with spiritual energy.
After a moment, she said:
"Except for the residents who came to seek refuge, I didn't notice anything approaching."
"Not a refuge."
Shanna frowned in discomfort, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead:
"It's not from a satellite, it seems like it's coming from a far away place, little by little."
this……
A little too metaphysical, right?
The space detection ability of psykers also has limits. It is impossible to see the situation outside the colonial satellite. Besides, Zanna is definitely not a psyker, otherwise An Yun will sense it.
If she wasn't lying, it was more like a special kind of perception.
But what exactly I sensed is really unclear.
