Chapter 911: The First Face-to-Face Confrontation
Hearing Xu You's words, Luo Wenkun smiled helplessly and said:
"This isn't the first test, so we didn't intend to make it so difficult. I didn't expect you to adapt to the mecha so well right after you put it on. This is really incredible."
The reason why Xu You was able to adapt to the driving of the mecha so quickly, in addition to his own strong adaptability, was also inseparable from Xu You's brain simulation skills.
Long before actually putting on the mecha, Xu You had already practiced this process countless times in the simulated world in his brain. This allowed Xu You to control the mecha with ease as soon as he put it on.
Xu You has always insisted that success does not come only from talent, hard work is also a very important factor.
"Teacher, can my wife and I take the test next?"
Lin Shi pulled Lu Zhiyao along and tried to ask Xu You.
"Well, you can, but you need to pay attention to safety. At the beginning, try not to try any moves that are too difficult..."
What Lin Shi didn't expect was that Xu You didn't stop them from taking the test immediately, which seemed to be inconsistent with Xu You's usual calm personality.
However, Xu You is very confident in this technology. As long as he operates according to the operating specifications of the mecha, there will basically be no accidents.
Next, Xu You introduced some key points and taboos in the mecha operation process, and asked everyone to prepare for the test one by one.
"What we need to do now is to adapt to the entire mecha's operating system as much as possible. You don't need to practice flying and attacking directly like I did. If we find that your operation is too risky, we will immediately activate the mecha's autopilot function to avoid any real danger."
In the subsequent tests, everyone's overall performance was pretty good.
Although they were not as good at operating as Xu You, they could at least complete some of the mecha's movements to a certain extent.
Mecha operators like Lin Shi and Lu Zhiyao, who were outstanding in both physical and mental abilities, also completed the mecha's flying and attacking movements like Xu You, but their system's evaluation scores were not as high.
…
In the following period of time, the various scientific research project teams of Fulun Technology will continue to conduct research on the projects they are responsible for.
These genetically modified people are also constantly familiarizing themselves with and training their abilities.
Especially those psychics who have gained enhanced powers, after continuous training, they have become very familiar with the control of mechas.
Just a mecha robot is enough to fight against a small military team. This kind of combat power is very terrifying.
On the other hand, something that Xu You had been worried about finally happened.
After continuous high-speed navigation, the vanguard space fleet of Proxima Centauri civilization is about to reach the edge of the solar system.
The array of death planets arranged by Xu You and others within the solar system is finally going to play its role.
"Sir, according to our detection, there are a lot of defensive weapons at the edge of the solar system. We must be especially careful before entering the solar system."
Upon learning of this situation, the commander of the Vanguard Space Fleet was not particularly surprised.
After all, this is the galaxy where the Blue Star civilization is located. With the capabilities of the Blue Star civilization, it is a very normal thing to deploy a defense system here.
Of course, they did not underestimate these defense systems, but instead carefully conducted more in-depth evaluations of these defense systems.
Soon, they discovered that this was the same weapon as the "Death Planet" they encountered on the way.
"Sure enough, they use these big guys to defend their planet. With so many big guys, it's not easy for us to break through."
The vanguard space fleet of the Proxima Centauri civilization had previously witnessed the power of this weapon.
Although they are bulky and cannot chase flexible space fleets, Death Planets are a very suitable weapon for positional warfare.
With so many death planets arranged at fixed locations, it would be difficult to break through even with the capabilities of the Proxima Centauri civilization's space fleet.
After thinking for a while, they did not decide to make a breakthrough immediately, but instead evaluated the capabilities of the Death Planet Array first.
"We will first send some small unmanned aerial vehicles in to see if they can make a breakthrough, and then decide on the next strategic approach based on the situation."
The vanguard space fleet of the Proxima Centauri civilization hopes to find some weaknesses in the Death Planet Array through this experimental method.
Although these small unmanned aerial vehicles are far less powerful than space fleets, they are more agile.
If even these small aircraft cannot make a breakthrough, then it will be difficult for the entire space fleet to enter smoothly.
As soon as these small unmanned aerial vehicles entered the attack range of the Death Planet array, the Death Planet immediately launched an attack on them.
The Death Planet’s main means of attack are various highly lethal laser weapons.
Almost instantly, these laser weapons completely destroyed the small unmanned aerial vehicles of the Proxima civilization, leaving no trace.
Seeing this scene, the entire space fleet felt very unbelievable.
"It's so easy to destroy our unmanned aerial vehicle! These bulky guys have really terrifying combat power!"
In positional warfare, the Death Planet can fully demonstrate its advantages, which is unmatched by other weapons.
"Sir, are we going to attack these 'planetary weapons'?"
Although the Death Planets are strong enough, the Proxima Centauri civilization is capable of attacking them.
"Don't rush to attack. There are too many weapons on these planets. Even if we have the ability to destroy them all, the price we pay is too high."
If most of the energy of the Vanguard Space Fleet is consumed, it will not be of much significance even if it can successfully break through the defense circle of the Death Planet.
At this time, some Proxima Centauri came up with some new ideas.
"Sir, the edge of the solar system is very large. It is impossible for them to deploy a complete planetary array defense system throughout the edge of the solar system. I think we can look for opportunities around us and see if we can break through from the weak points."
"Okay, then let's disperse our space fleet and look for weaknesses in the defense circle."
Immediately, the Proxima civilization dispersed their space fleet and flew in different directions.
…
"Academician Xu You, our Death Planet defense array has successfully resisted the first wave of attacks from the Proxima civilization. They are now dispersing their space fleets to try to find weaknesses in our defense."
Hearing the news, Xu You nodded slightly.
Xu You had already anticipated everything that had just happened.
Even the Proxima civilization's hope of finding the defensive weaknesses of the Death Planet Array was something Xu You had predicted before.
Through his understanding of the Proxima civilization over the years and the various information provided by Severi, Xu You is very familiar with the various behaviors of the Proxima civilization.
In the solar system's defense circle, the most heavily defended location is the straight line between the Blue Planet and Proxima Centauri civilizations.
Just as the Proxima Centauri civilization thought, the area around the solar system is too large, and it is impossible for the Blue Star civilization to strictly guard all locations.
However, this does not mean that the Proxima Centauri civilization can find loopholes in the Death Planet's defense array.
"Judging from the combat power of these space fleets, no matter how they distribute their combat power, they will never be able to break through our defense array. The super quantum we have deployed around the solar system can provide the most detailed information in real time, and through artificial intelligence calculations, intelligently allocate the locations of death planets, so that the defense level is always maintained at the highest level." Xu You said.
Just as Xu You was speaking, the Death Planet Array had already begun to move according to the real-time situation.
Although the Death Planet's maximum speed is slower than that of the Proxima Centauri civilization's space fleet, this speed disadvantage can be completely ignored due to its location advantage.
The space fleet of the Proxima civilization soon noticed this and immediately reported the situation to their superiors .
"Sir, the planetary weapons of the Blue Star civilization are moving! It seems that they are adjusting the defense array according to our ideas."
Upon hearing the news, the head of the space fleet felt mixed emotions.
What made him happy was that this proved that their previous thoughts were indeed correct.
The array of death planets arranged by the Blue Star civilization around the solar system is indeed not a perfectly defensive array.
However, this movable defense array did make it extremely difficult for the Proxima civilization to break through.
Faced with this dilemma, the Proxima Centauri civilization made a decision immediately.
"Continue to maintain the fastest speed, find the weaknesses of the Blue Star civilization's defense array, and make a breakthrough at the right time!" said the commander of the space fleet.
Forcibly breaking through the defense array may cause certain damage to the space fleet of the Proxima civilization, but compared with the damage to most of the overall combat power, this loss is still relatively acceptable.
After receiving the order, these space fleets began to operate at full speed, constantly looking for weaknesses in the defense array.
However, these death planets can always make up for these defensive weaknesses by moving among themselves, leaving the space fleet of the Proxima civilization no chance to invade.
At this time, an astronaut from the Proxima Centauri civilization felt that he seemed to have escaped the attack range of the death planet. He turned and sprinted towards the inner solar system.
In the blink of an eye, the death planet closest to the space fighter has already launched an attack on the space fighter.
The attack speed and intensity of the Death Planet far exceeded the expectations of the Proxima astronaut.
He barely escaped through emergency avoidance operations, but this also caused the space fighter to suffer relatively serious damage, and it completely lost the opportunity to enter the solar system again.
"Sir, space fighter No. 038 was attacked by planetary weapons and suffered serious damage. It has returned to the mothership."
After receiving this news, the commander of the space fleet also felt a little worried.
Compared with the life threat faced by this astronaut, what he is more concerned about is that the entire space fleet of Proxima Centauri civilization may not be able to break through the Death Planet defense array of Blue Star civilization.
"According to our previous calculations, the planetary weapons of the Blue Star civilization are far more powerful than we previously estimated. They may have deliberately concealed the true strength of these planetary weapons before..."
Listening to the sergeant's report, the commander of the space fleet felt even more melancholy.
Judging from the current situation, even if several motherships are used for space combat, they may not be able to completely destroy the Death Planet Array. Instead, the motherships will suffer devastating losses.
In this case, even if they exert all their abilities, they may not be able to complete the final task.
"If we fail to complete the mission, we will be executed by the Proxima civilization..."
Thinking of this, the commander of the space fleet decided that he must try every possible means to break through the defense array of the Blue Star civilization.
At this time, another sergeant came forward and suggested:
"Sir, if all else fails, we can only use our hyperdimensional mode."
"Hyperdimensional...mode?"
Hearing this word, the commander of the space fleet also felt extremely frightened.
After using the hyperdimensional mode, the entire space fleet of Proxima Centauri civilization, including all astronauts, will become hyperdimensional and enter a space that is higher in dimension than three-dimensional space.
But this also means that they will no longer be creatures in three-dimensional space and will be imprisoned in higher-dimensional space forever.
Unlike matter, creatures that enter high-dimensional space will lose the normal properties of three-dimensional space creatures and become terrifying beings similar to ghosts.
They can still control these space weapons in a high-dimensional form, but in three-dimensional space, they no longer have any substantial form.
Thinking of this, some fear arose in their hearts.
However, compared to failing the mission and being executed by the Proxima civilization when returning, this result is still a better outcome.
"Okay, then prepare to execute the instructions of the hyperdimensional mode. All of our space fleets are hyperdimensional, and can definitely break through the defense array of the Blue Star civilization easily."
After making this decision, the entire space fleet of Proxima Centauri civilization seemed to have suddenly disappeared.
