Super Mothership

Chapter 262 Changing Channels

(TL:By Rafael,valhallatls.blogspot.com)

On the surface of the Gemini battleship, which was quietly moored in the void of the universe, suddenly the blue light flashed slightly, and the force field shield swayed a dim ripple, bouncing off a piece of small cosmic dust that hit it.

The pushpin-sized cosmic dust was spinning slowly away, but a bright silver color flashed slightly on the dark surface.

……

The bridge of the Seawolf.

Nie Yun curled his lips and cut, then turned his head to look at the picture on the light screen. On it were hundreds of partial pictures of the Yu clan's warships. The picture was very clear. Obviously, the location of the shooting was not far from the opponent's ship.

“Well...this should be a kind of specular reflective armor?This kind of battleship is likely to focus on defense……

The sea tribe and the Feather tribe are the opposite?All-attack and all-defensive formation?Could it be a kind of fleet configuration that pays attention to mutual cooperation...” Nie Yun pointed his index finger at the armrest of the seat, analyzing all possible information.

Almost all the miniature detectors on both sides are only the size of a small finger, and the gravitational wave detectors cannot achieve such a small-scale resolution.

Coupled with the appearance of the detector, even if Nie Yun laid tens of thousands of space spies around him, the relatively vast space is nothing more than a drop of ink dripping into the sea, and the probability of the two detectors happening to run into each other is infinitely close to 0. .

Originally... it was almost impossible for both parties to find out these detectors!but……

“The orbit calculation is complete. I'm sorry, Your Excellency, only about 5% of the enemy detectors have been captured."The code name reported.

As her voice fell, dozens of red dots moving at a uniform speed appeared on the star map in the surveillance screen, and more than a dozen dots were still coming towards the Seawolf.

The miniature detector of the Gemini civilization is a one-time reconnaissance probe. Naturally, it is impossible to have much mobility. Only a small amount of recoil working fluid for angle adjustment is configured on it, and inertial guidance is mainly used.

In other words, this kind of thing can only be used to set up reconnaissance points at fixed points, or to pass by the Sea Wolf after quietly approaching, and then take a sneak look at it at close range.……

However, obviously, the other party did not expect that Nie Yun had arranged a dense reconnaissance network in advance, so the whole process of launching the miniature detector from the Gemini Civilization battleship was naturally photographed.

Although it is impossible to track all the miniature detectors, the flight orbits of some detectors are still optically locked by the code name.

“It's okay, it just needs a sample, but it's easy to expose if you have more.

Besides, if he wants to see it, let him see it. I'm afraid he won't look carefully enough. Hehe...” Nie Yun smiled, then randomly selected a few detectors and sent a miniature capture unit.

……

On the Gemini battleship.

“Weird, so weird!"The captain of the Yu Clan frowned and looked at the enlarged photo of the opponent's landing craft.

Like the Gemini civilization, this is also a typical aircraft of the mechanical civilization, but it is slightly bloated and looks like a puffer fish.

Not only the type of civilization, but also quantum communication, force field shields....

The technological similarity between the other party and us... is a bit too high, right?

Even if quantum communication is the standard configuration of almost all interstellar civilizations, what does the force field shield say?Is this also a coincidence?

……

After a few hours of sailing, the three landing craft arrived in Ganymede orbit almost at the same time, and invariably released several ground observation satellites as high-altitude reconnaissance forces. Soon after, the landing craft of both sides began to slowly land on the surface of the planet.

It's just that what the Gemini civilization didn't know was that their two landing craft had just entered the thin atmosphere of Ganymede, and they were already being targeted by “space spies” in low-earth orbit. After calculating the approximate landing orbit, countless mechanical insects scattered on the ground began to converge towards each other's scheduled fall site.

After the landing craft entered the complex terrain on the surface of Ganymede, the radars of the mother ships of both sides lost track of each other, and they could only use the reconnaissance satellites of both sides to lock in the approximate landing location of the other party.

Gemini Civilization is two to one this time. Although it seems to have an advantage in terms of quantity, Nie Yun's “Puffer fish landing craft” is not much larger than they add up. In addition, the other side has a less fight and more attitude of relying on fearlessness. The two captains of Gemini played very cautiously.

They selected the landing sites in two flat areas close to 30° north latitude that are suitable for the expansion of the base. The two bases are less than 00 kilometers apart and can quickly support each other. At the same time, they can also cooperate tactically if necessary!

The landing craft of the Yu clan and the Hai Clan have some differences in appearance and design style. The landing craft of the Hai Clan is about 0 meters long and is full of weapon muzzles used for ground suppression. It looks more like a fire platform, while the Yu clan is like a silver spindle. After landing, it directly plunged deep into the soil.

The two unfolded quickly after landing. After the rumbling vibration, the two huge landing craft had been deformed and unfolded into the prototype of a base of hundreds of square meters.

Although the appearance is somewhat different, the actions of the two bases are basically the same after they are launched. First, a batch of nearly 100 unmanned aerial vehicles was released.

This kind of unmanned aerial vehicle is shaped like floating mechanical eyeballs. There is no propulsion device on it, and the power source is the directional magnetic field provided by the base.

I saw these maglev eyeballs spread out quickly, and then a ray of light was projected from the eyeballs, and a camouflage light curtain was projected above the base.

Looking down from the sky, this light curtain blends perfectly with the surrounding scenery, making it completely difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Obviously, this is the intelligence shielding method of the Gemini civilization against space satellites!

……

Inside the Seawolf.

“Tsk tsk, combined large optical camouflage?What a good thing!"Nie Yun couldn't help but be surprised when he looked at the opponent base that had disappeared on the screen.

Then he grinned, “But the name of my Thousand-eyed Demon King was not given for nothing, the code name!"Change the stage!”

I saw a flash of the screen, and the picture of Gemini's base was restored, but this time, the photographer's angle was not from the air, but...the ground!

……

After completing the battlefield shielding, many collection engineering vehicles were driven from the Gemini base. These collection vehicles were centered on the base and began to find suitable locations for resource mining operations.

One of the very special is a large dark green canned car with a weird shape.

The car slowly drove out of the base and drove to a relatively soft soil layer on the periphery. Then a dozen probes of the thickness of the bowl mouth stretched out from under the belly of the car, and it plunged deeply into the soil with a “snort”. After a “grunt” seemed to spit out a sticky mass, the probe shrank back.

Then the car kept looking for a suitable place, repeating the above actions……

The black soil layer pierced by the probe slowly faded in color soon after, and some traces of desertification appeared, and the nutrients inside seemed to have been completely drained.……

It seems that something terrible is giving birth underground……

……

Not far from the periphery of Gemini's base, an optical probe half-buried in the soil flashed slightly, recording the scene completely.

Then the probe squirmed for a while, strangely deformed into a small silver spider the size of a small steel ball, and crawled into the distance, looking for a better view.……

……

In the Gemini Civilization Battleship, the two warships have already started a joint combat mode.

“The base is over!The battlefield information chain is completed!The automatic acquisition equipment is activated, and the basic arms are being manufactured..." Zhinai reported, while projecting the battlefield sand table of the two sides to the two captains.

The captain of the Yu Clan looked at the Yu clan staff officers and combat personnel who were busy operating various weapons and equipment in the bridge above, nodded in satisfaction, then turned to the captain of the sea clan next to him and said, "It's time to start!”

The figure of the pirate captain nodded and began to issue an attack order.

……

Soon after, Ganymede orbits.

The chunky spherical detector with a diameter of about 2 meters that Nie Yun's landing craft had just released adjusted its posture slightly, and persistently aimed its gaze at the Gemini base below, as if unwilling to become a useless blind man, wanting to stare through the opponent's optical camouflage.

“Zi~" At this moment, a dazzling red light suddenly shot out of the dark universe, and the next moment it penetrated the somewhat silly-looking spherical detector with lightning speed.

The lifeless spherical detector exploded immediately, turning into a firework in the universe, and debris splattered all over for a while.

Not only here, but at almost the same time, several detectors on Nie Yun's side were destroyed by the elusive laser weapon one after another!

If a coroner comes to identify it, then the autopsy report should be like this: the murderer is experienced and ruthless. All the dead were killed with a single knife, and there was no trace of struggle during his lifetime.……

……

Inside the Gemini battleship.

“Hahaha!Is this the strength of the Ante Empire?Even the antiques of the last century are better than them, right?Hahaha...” The captain of the sea clan laughed and ridiculed.

Optical camouflage is only a small-scale masking method. If you want to completely block the opponent's reconnaissance and gain the advantage of information asymmetry, then the enemy's high-altitude satellites will be the first target!

For the experienced Gemini civilization, even if it is a reconnaissance satellite, it must be an “elite scout” armed to the teeth. Their detectors are also equipped with satellite attack weapons.

The first round of confrontation between the high-altitude satellites of the two sides ended with a big score of zero casualties for the Gemini civilization and the annihilation of the Ante Empire.……

Captain Yu looked at the enemy satellite picture that exploded in the picture, but frowned. Although the war was going well, it always gave him a feeling of going too smoothly.……

……

Several Gemini satellites that are well versed in assassination, after a kill, immediately re-concealed their stature, so as not to be retaliated by the opponent's ground firepower.

It's just that they don't know that the danger... doesn't just come from the ground.……

TL Note- Danger all around....
