Super Mothership

Chapter 495 Sun Sail

Time is slowly passing by, and a day’s time passes quickly…

Marine support fleet.

The commanders of the first and second squadrons were discussing the tactical arrangements and contingency measures after arriving at the wormhole battlefield. At this moment, they received a message from the communications officer at the same time.

“Sir, there is a warning from Commander Isha, asking us to pay close attention to behind!”

“Behind?” Both of them were stunned.

Soon afterwards, they really caught an anomalous target from the gravitational radar.

“Sir, an unknown celestial body was found at the rear of the fleet. It is 68 million kilometers away and has a great mass. It is rushing towards us at an alarming speed. It is expected that it will come into contact with our fleet in 10 hours!”

Unknown celestial body? Everyone looked suspiciously at the abrupt signal on the radar.

“Is it a wandering celestial body?”

“It should not be. We have established a complete monitoring system for celestial bodies in the neighboring Galaxy. There should be no celestial bodies in this location! Moreover, celestial bodies with this speed and quality are third-level sources of danger and cannot be ignored by us!”

Since it is not a wandering celestial body, then… it seems that there is only one truth left!

Unbelievable glances flashed in the eyes of the two squadron commanders…

An hour later, the fleet’s optical radar finally captured the target image, and what was displayed in front of everyone was a…green umbrella? !

The green umbrella covering tens of thousands of square kilometers obscures all optical information behind the target, preventing them from seeing the full picture of the target.

“Is that it?”

“Although the image has changed a bit, but… it can only be it!”

There were solemn expressions on the faces of the two commanders.

That biological fortress… actually catching up? !

Immortal has been accelerated by the extreme gravitational force of Star and has achieved considerable speed. Not only that, in addition to the original high-power propulsion unit, Nie Yun also provided Immortal with an additional thrust again.

If the marine fleet can observe the back of the umbrella cover, it will find that the newly grown leaves of Immortal have been plated with a layer of bright silver, and the stars behind them will reflect a little bit of light, giving Immortal a little more. Divided into dreamlike Transcendent colors.

This kind of coating is a mechanical insect total reflection film with only one layer thickness. The mechanical insect material used for this is negligible, but it has created a side-“super solar sail”!

Light is a photon with no static mass but momentum. When the photon hits a smooth surface, it can change the direction of motion like a ping-pong ball bounced off the wall, and give the hitting object a corresponding force. This is the design principle of solar sails.

The famous astronomer Kepler put forward the hypothesis of the solar sail 400 years ago.

And the closer you are to Star, the stronger the propelling effect of the solar sail will be!

In fact, the “torch” series of energy harvesting devices located in the orbit of the Sun Star in the Prometheus plan uses the powerful thrust of photons to counteract the huge gravitational force of the Star, which maintains its own stable low-orbit operation.

The thrust generated by a single photon is extremely small, but when the area of ​​the solar sail is large enough and the coating reflection effect is super strong, the solar sail can make the flying object get a steady stream of powerful power in the space without resistance!

For Captain Nie, who prefers sail design, this is a cheap and cost-free method of non-working fluid propulsion. It provides approximately 10% acceleration for Immortal, which can catch up with the two seas in a short time. The fleet caught up with the latter before converging.

And this, naturally, greatly exceeded Isha’s expectations.

According to her original plan, the Sea Clan fleet was to stare at the solar system wormhole, and she should first free herself to solve the biological fortress and remove the unstable factors.

But now looking at the situation in the neighboring Galaxy, the Sea Clan First and Second Squadrons are rushing to the Wormhole Battlefield for support. Behind them is Immortal, who is constantly chasing after them.

Behind Immortal were the Feather Clan First and Second Squadrons, which were chasing after him.

The three are chasing me on the same channel, and they all want to fight for the strategic initiative. All the mobile forces form a straight chain of pursuit…

The wormhole of the solar system and the second Planet spaceport are undoubtedly the current basic disks of Nie Yun and Gemini respectively, and they are also strategic points for defense of both sides.

Nie Yun’s loss of the wormhole is equivalent to being cut off, and the reinforcements are cut off, while the loss of the spaceport on the Gemini side is basically equivalent to being burned into a granary and cutting off logistics.

No matter which party loses its own “base camp”, the war will basically be won.

According to the current situation, the forces of both sides are advancing toward the solar system wormhole. The difference is that Nie Yun is on the defensive, Immortal is returning to the defense, and Gemini is dominant and on the offensive, which is completely pressing the opposing line. .

At present, the “Guardians” are Nie Yun’s Mecha Corps and… Uh, Nie Yun’s “Feather Clan Third Squadron”…

Well, Nie Yun, who ignores cheating and “steals the tower” and the “Silver Revolution” that is quietly erupting inside the spaceport at this time, at least in the eyes of the unknowingly Isha, his base camp sits back on Wu You.

But as the offensive side, the current situation is really not optimistic, because the opponent’s Battlestar has completed an extremely thrilling small-angle “curve overtaking” and is about to collide with the Sea Clan’s first and second squadrons ahead of time!

Naturally, Ishar couldn’t watch the opposing force successfully complete the rendezvous, and immediately ordered the two marine squadrons in front to stop the opponent’s biological fortress, and it would be best to annihilate it!

But to this order, the two squadron commanders of the Sea Clan obviously resisted…

“What should we do now?”

“The appointment of the military department has been issued, and Ishar is now the highest officer of the legion. We can’t resist her order, we can only execute it!”

“It’s the same again. We charged into the battle, but they watched the excitement from behind. The enemy’s biological fortress was unclear. We intercepted it so rashly. In case of heavy losses, wouldn’t it mean that the feather clan guys picked the peaches in vain?”

“Hmm! I have to guard against it, but the posture is still to be done. Let’s focus on temptation first. If we can’t do anything…it’s not that our army is not working hard, but that the enemy is too cunning.”

“Haha! Okay, just do it!”

…

Ten hours passed in a flash, and the distance from Immortal was finally within the range of the Marine Fleet!

“Fire!”

The awaited Marine Fleet immediately launched an attack, a volley of more than 40 warships of various types, and various beams carrying the power of destroying the world and blasting towards Immortal!

Since the large umbrella cover completely concealed Immortal’s body, the Sea Clan’s attack line of sight was blocked, and could only shoot according to the approximate direction judged by the radar, so this wave of attacks was slightly scattered.

And the next moment Immortal, who has been silent for an attack on the Sea Clan, also moved!

Its canopy quickly closed, and it quickly transformed from a large open umbrella cover into a sharp cone-shaped arrow. Then the leaves flipped all over, and the overall color changed from a dark green “brush” to a bright silver.

The super solar sail designed by Yun Nie can not only be used as a booster, but also instantly turn into a set of mirror-reflective armor!

Due to the rapid reduction of the attack cross section, a large number of attacks by the Marine Fleet failed, and only less than 10% of the attacks hit Immortal.

Various rays penetrated through layers of protective blades, but were weakened layer by layer, and finally blocked after piercing more than a dozen layers of protection!

However, several more penetrating heavy force field rays submerged into Immortal’s body, but because of the canopy of the tree, no attack effect could be seen.

The next moment, while the Immortal branches danced, quickly recovered the damaged area, and no damage was seen on the surface…

“This… this is impossible!”

All the Sea Clan officers who saw this scene were stunned.

They imagined that the other party might turn on the super shield to block all attacks, or offer some secret defensive weapon, but they never thought that the other party would choose to resist!

With his body alone, he took a round of his own volley? !

How strong is this physical defense?
