Idle game leads to another world

Fleet artillery battles look very exciting, but if you really get started, you will find that you will lose interest after firing a few shots.

The main reason is that the firing distance is too far. After you fire a shot, it will take one or two minutes to see whether it hits the target in the sight. The ballistic computer will automatically calculate the firing parameters based on the position of the shell of your previous shot, and roughly mark the lead time for the next shot to aim.

In other words, it is difficult for fleet artillery battles to have any emotional positive and negative feedback, and it will become a boring mechanical operation after a few shots.

This situation will change as the distance gets closer, but it is still similar.

The fleet of the Rotating Water Federation encircled from the left and right sides, facing the fortress and the enemy fleet. This will reduce the density of firepower in the same direction, but the advantage is that the two firepower points can allow the Red Maple Republic fleet to focus on the head and not the butt.

The Red Maple Republic has a formation that obviously relies on the fortress to defend. Although it is hit on both sides, it can still concentrate its forces to deal with it.

The two sides had been engaged in an artillery battle for nearly an hour since the first shot was fired. The distance was indeed shortened, and the accuracy of the artillery fire was indeed improved, but the losses of both sides were still few.

This is how a large fleet artillery battle works. It is not a big news even if it is fought for a few days.

The Swan, which has always followed the Fifth Fleet, has never fired a shot, because it has not received the order to attack from the cruise ship and the mobile aircraft carrier formation. Now it is just hiding behind the main fleet of the friendly forces and running.

Li Chengxi was so bored that he began to count the water patterns of each key on the keyboard, and the Swan finally received the order to advance from the fleet commander.

Including the Swan, about fifty cruise ships, more than forty mobile aircraft carriers, and armored transport ships further behind were separated from the main fleet.

With the attitude control nozzles fully activated, they descended rapidly and separated from the rear of the main fleet.

The main fleet of the Red Maple Republic was entangled by the fleet of the Whirlwater Federation. The mission of the Swan and the cruisers was to capture the space fortress Ilxia.

It kept descending until it was completely out of the enemy fleet's gun depression angle, and then the Swan followed the cruiser formation from the descending posture to level flight.

At this time, the space fortress Ilxia had already reached the upper side of the bridge porthole, and it looked like an irregular, diamond-shaped meteorite.

In fact, it is not accurate to describe it as a meteorite. Scholars believe that it is a large piece of debris that was broken by the impact of a celestial body, which escaped the gravitational capture of the galaxy and flew to a wandering celestial body in the dark star field.

It was just that when it was discovered, the location was very good. It was initially used as a forward base for exploring farther star fields, and was later transformed into a military fortress.

This huge celestial body, which would definitely cause a mass extinction of life if it hit the earth, is mainly composed of a mixture of refined gold and a small amount of other metals.

The appearance is still the original appearance of the celestial body, but its defense is extremely strong, and the interior is hollowed out, which can supply three fleets.

Originally, a large number of artillery were set up on the fortress, and there were even ion cannons used for the fortress, but these things were blown up when the Whirlwater Federation Fleet evacuated, and the Red Maple Republic got only an empty shell.

During this period, the Maple Republic repaired it, but time was not enough. Even if the Maple Republic had super infrastructure per capita, it would not be possible to restore it to its pre-war state in a month.

The cruiser formation led the way in front, and directly above was the firing line of the intensive exchange of fire between the main fleets of both sides. The ion beams and the almost invisible physical shells almost set the star field on fire.

Alyssa stared at the distance to the fortress on the monitor, and then An Yun reported:

"A large number of signals were detected, and the enemy's space fighter unit was dispatched."

The Swan was lucky this time, because the cruiser formation of the Maple Republic went to intercept the cruiser formation of the Third Fleet of the Rotating Water Federation. They had a limited number of cruisers. When facing the enemy approaching from two directions, they could only intercept one. If they divided their troops, they would not have enough combat power.

But intercepting only one does not mean ignoring the other. The space fortress Ilxia can certainly launch a large number of space fighters.

And after An Yun's report, rows of ion beams and physical shells also covered the cruiser formation where the Swan was located from the direction of the space fortress diagonally above.

A blue shield appeared to protect the Swan from direct fire. Alyssa glanced at the screen:

"A new route has been set. We will advance along the route and carry out targeted elimination of the defensive firepower on the surface of the fortress."

Then she connected the communication of the hangar and said to Fang Lanyin who appeared on the screen:

"Let Hall and Li Chengxi go. The firepower network ahead is too dense. For the time being, we can only get close to this distance."

Fang Lanyin nodded, and after hanging up the communication, she asked the mechanics to move quickly and perform the final flight check before departure.

Hall had already sat in the cockpit when she heard the battle alarm. She had even sat in it for more than an hour to ensure that she could attack at any time.

She covered her left chest with her hand, trying to calm her heart that was beating violently due to tension, but because she was wearing a heavy void protective suit, the effect of this operation was not obvious.

"Don't be nervous, just act like you usually do."

This time, Li Chengxi did not run out on his own initiative. He said to Hall:

"If you feel unsure, you should fly a space fighter."

The reason why Hall was nervous was because she decided to fly the Silver Cyclone instead of the space fighter she was used to.

After Hall joined, Vilania had completely become a communicator, and she hardly touched the Silver Cyclone.

Originally, Vilania was not a pilot. She drove the Silver Cyclone only to make up for the shortcoming that no one was guarding the Swan after Li Chengxi attacked. With Hall, she naturally didn't need her.

Now for her, the Silver Cyclone is just an interest, but Hall is very interested in the Silver Cyclone.

The Storm Kingdom is preparing to replace the old space fighters with magic mechas. This cutting-edge weapon is likely to be popular in the future.

Pilots are also technical personnel. If they don't keep a learning attitude, they will soon be eliminated.

Hall uses the Silver Cyclone simulator for training whenever he has time, especially the data she uses for training is still the data when Li Chengxi drove the high-mobility Zaku. It can be said that Hall can already operate this 18-meter-level humanoid mecha very skillfully.

But the first time he really drove it to the battlefield, he was definitely nervous.

Every time at this time, Hall envied Li Chengxi very much. He seemed to have no nervousness at all, and was as calm as sitting on the sofa at home.

Her intuition was correct; Li Chengxi was indeed sitting at home.
