Volume 15 Gray Fog Forest Chapter 757: Full Launch
The Blasphemer mecha fell back to the ground for the second time.
At this time, there is only one minute left before the plasma cannon of "Shaojiang Modified" is fully charged.
"How's the situation? Was it successful?" Ivan asked immediately when he saw Valentina and Ke Lan coming back.
"We can't attack the battleship itself." Ke Lan's voice came from inside the machine. "The energy shield generator of the Shaojiang Modified is not damaged... The battleship-level shield cannot be penetrated by the plasma cannon mounted on the Blasphemer mecha alone."
"What should we do?" The faces of the people on the ground suddenly changed. Thirty-three immediately said to Ke Lan, "Time is running out. Why don't we just split up and flee now? No matter what else happens, at least whoever survives is the best, right?"
"I want to try again." Ke Lan said.
"Try what? Didn't you say that the Blasphemer mecha's plasma cannon can't penetrate the frigate's energy shield?" Thirty-Three asked back.
"Time is running out. If we start moving now, we can at least ensure that half of us can escape the plasma cannon's bombardment range in time." Ivan also said.
"You can't escape." Ze Luo said, "As long as you go out from under the dome, you will be directly engulfed by the bombing zone created by conventional artillery shells and missiles. Whether the plasma cannon fires or not, the outcome will be the same."
"This..." Ivan's expression froze. He had to admit that Ze Luo was right - the bombing zone created by the two warships was at least one kilometer in diameter, and the maximum extension distance of Ze Luo's space barrier was only a few dozen meters. If they fled this place separately now, then the people who walked out of the barrier would first have to face the purgatory-like sea of fire outside.
"Let's try again." Ke Lan took a deep breath, "If it doesn't work, find another way to break out."
"How are you going to try?" Thirty-three asked, then turned to look at Ze Luo, "Can you calculate how many shots the Blasphemer will need to fire to break the frigate's energy shield?"
"The Shaojiang Modified frigate has two battleship-class shield energy generators that can be used alternately. There is basically no overload window. If you want to break its shield, you must use the Blasphemer's small plasma cannon at full power twelve to sixteen times in two seconds."
"That means it's impossible to do it...right." Ivan gave a wry smile, looked at Thirty-Three, and shook his head.
"I don't need to break the energy shield of 'Shaojiang Modified'." Ke Lan suddenly said.
"Then...what are you going to do?" Thirty-three frowned, looking confused.
"We just need to destroy the vines hanging from the battleships and cut off the 'connection' between the battleships and the Gray Mist Forest. The native creatures living in the forest will naturally help us get rid of the two battleships."
Since the "biological weapons" made by the Alpha civilization can shoot down these two warships once, they can naturally shoot them down a second time.
All Ke Lan needs to do is to destroy the "friendly force identification module" on these two warships.
…
…
The Blasphemer mecha broke through the canopy and thick fog of the Gray Mist Forest for the third time and leaped into the sky.
At this time, there were less than twenty seconds left for the "Shaojiang Modified" plasma cannon to be fully charged. For Ke Lan and Valentina, they only had one last chance to attack.
"This time the hovering time can be a little longer, probably controlled at around four to five seconds ." Ke Lan said to Valentina through synchronized consciousness.
Although doing so might attract attacks from those "biological weapons", Ke Lan felt that in the face of such "huge targets" as the two warships, those biological weapons would most likely not choose the Blasphemer Mech as their primary target of attack.
Of course, the prerequisite is that they have to cut off the connection between the two warships and the Gray Mist Forest.
"Adjust the posture of the machine and prepare to launch all missiles. Target: the vines connecting the 'Shaojiang Kai' frigate to the ground." Ke Lan continued to share the information obtained by time stop with Valentina, while Valentina controlled the machine to shuttle back and forth in the explosion, quickly approaching the vines hanging from a thousand meters above the sky.
In addition to its built-in heavy armor-piercing sword and small plasma cannon, the Blasphemer mecha is also equipped with a large number of weapons mounted on the external armor, enough to distribute more than five small missiles to each vine, as well as a huge amount of machine gun shells and beam lasers.
"Fire."
The various weapon bays of the Blasphemer's external armor opened at the same time, and countless missiles were fired with gray-white tails. The cluster lasers that looked only as thick as fingers but were extremely dazzling intertwined into a dense network in the air. The barrels of the machine guns were spinning frantically, and the muzzles had turned red. Tons of shell casings were spit out from the ejection windows and poured down from the sky.
The hovering Blasphemer mecha retreated step by step under the push of the weapon recoil, and the vines hanging down from the "Shaojiang Kai" were also cut off one by one... With Ke Lan's precise guidance, no ammunition missed the target, and all of them hit the most vulnerable parts of the vines.
Every time a weapon bay is emptied, it will automatically fall off from the external armor. In just three seconds, the entire Blasphemer mecha will become much thinner.
Ke Lan has noticed that with the blasphemer as the center, the thick fog within a radius of several kilometers below has begun to roll like boiling water... It won't be long before those biological weapons including the ghost-faced giant owl will rush out of the thick fog and pounce on them.
…
When the first ghost-faced giant owl emerged from the thick fog, the Blasphemer mecha just broke the last vine connecting "Shaojiang Modified" and the Gray Fog Forest.
The ghost-faced giant owl first quickly approached the Blasphemer mecha hovering in the air, but when it was less than fifty meters away from the Blasphemer, its huge body shook violently, and it flapped its wings suddenly, turned around and rushed towards the higher "Shaojiang Modified".
"This plan works!" After seeing the actions of the ghost-faced giant owl, Ke Lan finally breathed a sigh of relief - those vines were the only connection between the "Shaojiang Modified" and the Gray Mist Forest. This was actually just his guess. If there were other "friendly force identification modules" on these two warships, then they might really have to flee under the bombardment as Ivan said.
More monsters rushed out from the thick fog. In addition to the ghost-faced giant owl, there was also a creature shaped like a giant bat and a group of terrifying black insects.
