Chapter 853 Let’s go home
It all happened so fast, no one knew what was going on.
But one thing is certain. Whether it is a high-speed destroyer or a frigate, their radars almost simultaneously received an engine ignition signal that had never been discovered before, and it was very close to them.
"Main gun ready!"
"Main gun fire!"
Long pressed the launch button, and the shell-like structure at the front of the Swan opened, revealing the charged muzzle of the light spear. When the high-speed destroyer was trying to turn, one shot was fired.
Being completely unprepared for a sneak attack from behind, the high-speed destroyer could only make an emergency evasion.
The shield had been hit when it had just fought against the frigate, and now the shield energy was insufficient. As you can tell from the name of Storm Kingdom's light spear cannon, this thing has a strong penetrating ability.
The high-speed frigate's shield only lasted for less than a second, and was immediately penetrated by the light spear. However, because it had just performed an emergency maneuver, the light spear missed its vital point and hit the side and rear of the high-speed destroyer.
The armor, which was far more resistant than the Swan, blocked the remaining power of the light spear cannon. The explosions and flames on the surface of the high-speed destroyer's hull could be seen visually, but they did not have much impact on its maneuverability.
As I said earlier, space warfare is the same as naval warfare. Tonnage is everything. It would be too difficult for a small ship to win against a big ship with its small capabilities and big capabilities.
At the same time, another beam of light grazed the edge of the high-speed destroyer and flew towards the Swan. It was the main gun attack of the frigate. It should have regarded the sudden appearance of the Swan as reinforcements for the high-speed frigate.
After all, judging from the distance traces between the two on the radar, the frigate must have thought that the Swan was hiding in the dark and preparing for a sneak attack, so naturally it came up and fired a shot.
It wasn't until they saw the Swan firing a shot at the high-speed destroyer first that they realized they were not in the same group, but the main gun had already been fired.
"Emergency surface!"
Villania reminded loudly, and then tugged on the joystick.
All the attitude control nozzles below the Swan were activated simultaneously, causing the Swan to rise a section higher.
The frigate's main gun flew past the edge of the Swan, and also hit the side of the ruins left by the ancient elves.
Using the ruins as a cover, we can still get entangled for a while. The most important thing now is why Alyssa and the others haven't come out yet.
"We're out! We're on our way!"
Alyssa's voice came from the communication channel, and it sounded like she was running.
Long-range magic communication has always been a big problem. Just like radar, if you want to extend the communication distance, you must increase the size of the communication equipment.
Communication equipment that can be carried by individuals cannot contact places that are too far away. Being able to hear Alyssa's voice means that they are very close to the Swan.
"I'll send the coordinates right now and wait for us at the coordinates!"
Villania lowered her head and looked at the coordinates sent by Alyssa. It turned out to be a bare rock behind the ruins. Just as she was about to say whether you sent the wrong location, there was another buzz in the communication channel. It might be because the interference was too strong. , lost contact again.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
There was a fight outside, and Alyssa and the others were also running wildly in the passage.
Just like she said to Shanna, we will study what happened later. We just want to go home now.
Since I found the map in the terminal, it was easier to get out, but it was definitely impossible to go back the way I came. There were countless soldiers waiting along the way, and I didn't have time to fight with them now.
So Alyssa chose another path.
This ruins is not a floating city, but a functional building. The ancient elves would not make it too complicated. After all, too much complexity would conflict with the function.
Just like there is not only one entrance to enter, it also has a hidden exit to exit.
A terrible vibration came along the soles of the feet, almost causing several people running wildly in the passage to hit the wall.
That was caused by the frigate's main gun hitting the ruins. Although Alyssa didn't see it with her own eyes, she knew that the shock was definitely not good news.
The Swan is a light cruiser, and its greatest advantage is running fast, but armor protection is not. They must run out as fast as possible, otherwise if the Swan is destroyed, they will have nowhere to escape.
Thanks to the guidance of the map, everyone can be more wild in choosing routes, such as jumping directly into a pit at the end of the corridor.
This pit is similar to the previous super large slide. It is not used to deliberately tease people, but a shortcut set up by the ancient elves.
——These guys are really perverted.
There is a deceleration force field under the passage to ensure that people will not be killed if they fall down. Of course, the falling process is indeed terrible, but I have no time to worry about it now.
After coming down from the express lane, everyone ignored their weak feet and started running wildly again. Amidst the constant vibrations and greetings along the streets, Alyssa opened an airlock door.
As the headlights turned on, an apron appeared in front of us.
To be precise, this is not a landing pad, but a material transportation channel used by the ancient elves when they built this place. It is an unloading yard.
However, there are still four 'Manta Ray' shuttles parked here.
Of course, this thing was not left by the ancient elves, but by the group of people who had visited the ruins and caused Zannah's failure to hatch successfully. They were probably the Creation God Cult.
But the details will have to wait until later. Alyssa led everyone to find a random table and skillfully put the boot disk up.
Accompanied by the words 'Creation Machine. Divine Crystal Initialization Completed', the engine of the shuttle started humming.
Li Chengqi couldn't help but sigh:
"I didn't expect that I would actually drive this thing..."
Originally, the Manta was shot down while covering Alyssa and the others, but unexpectedly it was lost and recovered again.
"When I get the starship back, I'll buy you the most awesome shuttle. Take us out now!"
The engines started, pushing the Manta closer to the airlock on the other side.
At the same time, Alyssa saw the message 'No one can stop God's progress' appearing on the main control screen. The originally closed airlock was immediately forcibly opened, and at the same time, the outermost layer was disguised as a rock mask. Driven by a hydraulic press, it opens like a sunshade.
Due to failure to perform standard operations, a large amount of gas poured into the void from the opened airlock, and the Manta was almost blown out by the strong wind.
As soon as they came out, they saw the Swan. Thanks to Li Chengqi for giving him the direction, otherwise the Manta would have been destroyed directly on the Swan.
"The control is given to you, I have to control the Swan."
Li Chengqi switched the perspective back to the bridge of the Swan, then clicked the airlock on the side of the Swan with the mouse and chose to open it.
The Manta got in, and Li Chengqi didn't care whether it had stopped or not, and immediately controlled the Swan to keep reversing away from the ruins.
At this time, the high-speed destroyer emerged from the left side of the ruins, and the frigate emerged from the right side of the ruins, both of which seemed to be chasing the Swan.
Without thinking, Li Chengqi directly activated the 12-unit void torpedo arranged on the front of the Swan, and then pulled the joystick fiercely.
Driven by the engine behind it, the Swan changed from level flight to diagonal upward flight. It is estimated that Vilania on the bridge and Alyssa who just entered the hangar will not be too comfortable, but they can't care about that much now. .
Almost at the same time as the maneuver was completed, two beams of light flew over and below the Swan, and a large number of dense shells followed. The Swan's shield lit up, and ripples appeared in the heavy rain of shells.
Although the Swan's maneuverability is considered high among battleships, it cannot be as flexible as a shuttle, and it cannot fight in a one-on-two situation.
Li Chengqi had no intention of fighting back. Before the second main gun shot arrived, the smoke generated by the explosion of the void torpedo just launched also formed an effect similar to a smoke screen.
He immediately pushed the throttle to the bottom and immediately started pulse flight.
The Swan disappeared from the field of vision in a swish. If you look back at this time, you will find that the ruins of the ancient elves have also melted into the void, disappeared without a trace, and no longer exist...
